Here's your host, Paul. 5 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:26,080 Speaker 1: It is time for Phase two of the fantasy football 6 00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:28,960 Speaker 1: season on Paul Giargie and my co host today, Matt 7 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:33,240 Speaker 1: Harrison and Brian Johnson. Guys, the bye weeks are here. 8 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 1: Mccockney's not here right now. That what happened? What happened 9 00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:43,199 Speaker 1: to game I heard that he was like hospitalized, hospitalized, hospitalized, 10 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:47,920 Speaker 1: I heard arrested, I heard streaking, streaking involved. Okay, yeah, 11 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 1: that was It was an unfortunate turn for Colin mccockney 12 00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 1: last week. You know, I've heard there's crimes that he's 13 00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 1: committed in the United States too. Wouldn't surprise me if 14 00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 1: there's extradition involved, great news. Yeah, absolutely. Uh, it's phase two. 15 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:06,839 Speaker 1: You can no longer just coast on the best guys 16 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 1: you drafted. Now we're gonna be testing fantasy owners with 17 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: their ability to find help on their bench on the 18 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 1: waiver wire, and that's what we're here to do. We've 19 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 1: got a lot of help, including some specific tight ends. 20 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 1: Tight ends, it's always brutal. We're gonna give you some 21 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 1: specific tight end help throughout this show. And Brian, I 22 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 1: believe you coined to the tight end waste Land. Is 23 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 1: this the wastiest of waste lands you've ever seen? This 24 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 1: is the wastiest the waste land has ever wasted. That's 25 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:40,399 Speaker 1: what I thought we are wasting away in I don't know. 26 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 1: We've got all of the batchups for your broken down 27 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 1: Fantasy football weekly style with letter grades on every player. 28 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 1: Will give you the nine players upon whom you can 29 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 1: take a chance. We'll answer three tough questions. We'll give 30 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:55,280 Speaker 1: your premature speculation. I've heard some rumors that we might 31 00:01:55,480 --> 00:02:09,839 Speaker 1: have very new and improved flux capacitor, very impressive. Thank 32 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 1: you to Robbie for that. Let's begin at Cincinnati taking 33 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 1: on New Orleans. It's been an inconsistent Cincinnati offense, but 34 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:21,519 Speaker 1: New Orleans is without their best defensive player, march On Latimer. Yeah, 35 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:23,799 Speaker 1: I'm gonna start with Joe Mixon. I'm gonna give him 36 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 1: an A in this one. He's leading the league with 37 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,959 Speaker 1: twenty four point six opportunities per game and that volume 38 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: is just massive. He's facing the middle of the pack 39 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,959 Speaker 1: Saints run defense. They've allowed double digit PPR days to 40 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 1: four of five lead backs they've faced this year, so 41 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,799 Speaker 1: mixing is pretty safe in this one. Joey Burrow, I'm 42 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:43,800 Speaker 1: giving him a B kind of kind of feels like 43 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: the B is a little generous too. There's something between 44 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 1: a B and a C, but there's not there's there's 45 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 1: definitely not no reason to bring it up. The Saints 46 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: have allowed the fewest completions in the league, but did 47 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 1: allow for Geno Smith to throw for two sixty eight 48 00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: and three last week. Two fifty and two. See is 49 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: doable for Burrow? That's a B for me. Did you 50 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 1: see in the press conference after the game last week 51 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 1: someone coughed and he was like horrified. He has like 52 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 1: PTSD from all the sacks he's been taking. He doesn't 53 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 1: even feel safe in the him. You know who else 54 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: doesn't feel safe to have in your lineups. That's te Higgins. 55 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:21,359 Speaker 1: He did not practice until Friday, where he was limited. 56 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 1: You can't start him this week because he could pull 57 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: exactly what he did last week on you play six 58 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 1: snaps and leave the game. Hayden Hurst was also limited 59 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: in practice all week with a groin injury. I'll probably 60 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,519 Speaker 1: leave him on the bench because he's a fringe guy 61 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 1: and it's a tough matchup and he's hurt. That leaves 62 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: Jamaar Chase as a B grade and Tyler Boyd as 63 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: a desperation see Marshawn Lattimore is out with an abdomen injury. 64 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 1: The other starting cornerback, Paulson a Debo, was limited in 65 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 1: practice all week. Now, Boyd will face Bradley Roby in 66 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 1: the slot. Roby has only allowed three receptions for eighteen 67 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: yards all season and slot coverage. It's been very good 68 00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:00,120 Speaker 1: for him. But there's not a lot of options out there, 69 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: so I think Boy's gonna get a lot of volume 70 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 1: in this one. Going over to the other side, let's 71 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:07,839 Speaker 1: talk about the biggest name and fantasy. That's Taysom Hill. Yeah, 72 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 1: the tight end who has one target on the season, 73 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 1: yet he's the number three tight end and fantass like 74 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 1: complaining people that don't like him as a tight end. 75 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 1: He's been a he was listed on the depth chart 76 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 1: as a tight end. You could have drafted him as 77 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: your tight end. Didn't quit your bitchen. You know, Brian 78 00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,600 Speaker 1: always puts in for Kyle Pitts that he's a wide 79 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: receiver with a tight end designation is we're just playing 80 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 1: in the in the in the rules of the game 81 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,480 Speaker 1: right here. Um, he's sort of acting as a de 82 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:41,160 Speaker 1: facto red zone running back or quarterback though, so you 83 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: kind of have to treat him as such. So I 84 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 1: looked at the Bengals. They've only allowed one running back 85 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: rushing score on the season, So I'll give him a 86 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: C grade because tight end is gross and he can 87 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 1: score in a lot of different ways. The Saints are 88 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 1: are very injured on the offensive side to Michael Thomas 89 00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 1: did not participate on Thursday with his foot injury. Jarvis 90 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: Landry did not participate with an ankle injury. In fact, 91 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 1: they've both been ruled up. They have been have they 92 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 1: all right? Chris Olave limited but had a concussion last week. 93 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: He looks like the most likely candidate to play. It's 94 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 1: likely a lot of Marquez Callaway and tray Kwon Smith 95 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: starting with him, but they're all on the bench because 96 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: since he has been the fourth toughest defense versus wide 97 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: receivers this season, allowing only a hundred and forty one 98 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,039 Speaker 1: yards per game to the position. And they've only yielded 99 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 1: one score to wide receivers so far. Plus, we don't 100 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 1: know who the quarterback is. Is it Andy Dalton, is 101 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: it Jamis Winston? It doesn't matter bench them both. Winston 102 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: ramped up activity in practice this week, but they're facing 103 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 1: a since defense that allows an average stat line of 104 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 1: two thirty eight and they've only allowed four passing scores 105 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 1: in five games. And then the last guy is Alvin Kamara. 106 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: Prospects aren't a ton better for him, but I'll still 107 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,400 Speaker 1: give him a B. He's not on the injury report 108 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: for the first time this season, saw a full workload 109 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: last week, fifty six snaps, twenty nine touches, a hundred 110 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:04,039 Speaker 1: total yards, and outside of Taysom Hill, Camara is the offense. 111 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 1: It's a bad matchup, though, since he's the number two 112 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: run defense and fantasy rating top six in rushing yards, 113 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,599 Speaker 1: rushing touchdowns, receptions, receiving yards, in total touches per game 114 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: to running backs. He's gonna have to do it with volume, 115 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 1: and he's the only guy in town, so he's probably 116 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,599 Speaker 1: gonna get the volume here. Uh makes sense. Camara clearly 117 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,919 Speaker 1: one of the biggest disappointments on the year, but maybe 118 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: healthy now really, for the first time all year, we'll 119 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 1: start to see something be turned on that first round 120 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 1: equity for Alvin Kamara. Brian Carolina takes on the Rams. 121 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 1: What a disastrous offense this has turned out to be. 122 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 1: And I'm talking about the Ram. This Rams offense is putrid. 123 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 1: They ranked twenty nine in overall offense and second to 124 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 1: last in rushing offense. It has been a disaster. Basically, 125 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,919 Speaker 1: you're only getting what Cooper Cup can generate for that 126 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 1: offense and nothing else. Yeah, it's been bad for the Rams. 127 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna start with the with the road team though, 128 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 1: in the Panthers, and this is the car at Lara matchup. 129 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 1: I love that car at la uh. Starting with the Rams, 130 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey, he gets an a l A is allowing 131 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 1: a modest hundred ten comboy yards per game to opposing 132 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 1: running backs. But they haven't faced a runner and receiver 133 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 1: anywhere near the level of Christian McCaffrey. They've seen the 134 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: Bills Backs, the Falcons, the Cardinals of the Niners, and 135 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: the Cowboys. Nowhere no one anyone near the level of 136 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 1: cmc Ezekiel Elliott and Tony Pollard combined for a hundred 137 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 1: sixty four rushing yards and a touchdown against l A 138 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 1: last week. So in a for McCaffrey, not in a 139 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: for DJ More. But I'm gonna say stardom if he's 140 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: not traded before the game. There's there's rumors swirling that 141 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: he might end up in Baltimore. But I mean, give 142 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 1: him a C. I think that's us generating those us, 143 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 1: not me personally, but Fantasy Twitter. Yeah, all are the 144 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 1: smartest ones out there. But the Rams have allowed the 145 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 1: fourth most catches and the most yards to opposing wide 146 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 1: receivers along with six total touchdown and five games. And 147 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 1: when p J Walker has been under center, more as 148 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 1: a twenty eight point six target share, So that's that's 149 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: that's heavy volume. So I like more in this one 150 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 1: with the C. I don't like Robby Anderson though he's 151 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 1: on the bench. It's a good matchup for wide receivers. 152 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: But since going for a hundred plus yards and a 153 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: touchdown in Week one, Anderson has total just eight catches 154 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 1: for a hundred and four scoreless yards over the last 155 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 1: four games. So he's on the bench, and sadly so 156 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 1: is p J. Walker. I was close to giving him 157 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 1: a C. But i's got to see what he's got here. 158 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 1: I know he had some success last year. I'm pulling 159 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: for him, but uh got him on the bench and 160 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 1: uh even in the tight end waste land. We're not 161 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 1: talking about Carolina's tight ends this week or probably any 162 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,839 Speaker 1: week for the foreseeable future. Over to the Rams side, 163 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 1: Now this is where it gets real messy. As you 164 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 1: were alluding to charge cam Acres has been ruled out 165 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 1: for personal reasons. Uh quote unquote. They're they're going through 166 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: some things with cam Acres. So I think it's a 167 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 1: job interview. Uh maybe hopefully, hopefully that's the with another team. Yeah, line, 168 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,160 Speaker 1: I don't even think it's a team. I think it's 169 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 1: outside of football. So that really leaves Darryl Darryl Henderson 170 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 1: as the running back. Malcolm Brown is a name you 171 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 1: don't want to grab if you're in very deep leagues, 172 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,439 Speaker 1: but i'mnn give Henderson the b here. A good matchup 173 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,600 Speaker 1: on paper for him. Carolina is allowing more than a 174 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:15,959 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty compo yards and they touchdown per game 175 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 1: to opposing running back. So for whatever reason, Darryl Henderson 176 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,679 Speaker 1: is available, go grab him immediately and Uh, you're not 177 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: gonna be able to grab Cooper Cup unless you're in 178 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: the Guillotine league, maybe even though the bidding period has passed. 179 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,280 Speaker 1: But he's always available in guillotine leagues, or most of 180 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: the time is he gets an a pretty much against 181 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: anyone currently on pace for two hundred and eighteen targets, 182 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 1: hundred and sixty six catches, one thousand, seven nine two yards, 183 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: and fourteen touchdowns Before Thursday Night's game, Uh Bears Commanders game, 184 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: Cup had as many catches as justin Fields had completions. 185 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 1: That's crazy. Cup needs fourteen catches to tie Fields in 186 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 1: that category and a fifteen to take the lead, and 187 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: he might get. As for the other wide receivers on 188 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,079 Speaker 1: the RAM, starting with Allen Robinson, I'm gonna cry here 189 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: he's on the bench. We should probably probably be talking 190 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:09,319 Speaker 1: about Ben sco Ronck, who has more catches. And I 191 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 1: thought sco I heard it rhymes with row, like sco 192 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,280 Speaker 1: sco the boat. Well, I'm not scoing the boat. I'm 193 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 1: not I'm not a Robin. I love that they're using 194 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 1: him in such unique ways though, Oh yeah, it's like 195 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: the fantasy points. But you know, I didn't see him 196 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 1: coming as a full back. That's pretty cool, but he's 197 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 1: on the cool so is a rob. The Panthers allowing 198 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,719 Speaker 1: thirteen catches and a hundred and fifty five yards per 199 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 1: game to wide receivers, and that's that sounds like a 200 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 1: Cooper Cup stat line right there. That's all going to 201 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 1: Cooper Cup this week. So both wide receivers are on 202 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,559 Speaker 1: the bench. Tyler Higbee is not, though through the first 203 00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 1: five weeks he leads all tight ends in both targets 204 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:49,199 Speaker 1: and receptions. The Panthers had to put starting safety Jeremy 205 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 1: Chin on i R, meaning Higgbye should see a good 206 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 1: dose of safety. Shawn Chandler, who is PFF's Pro Football 207 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 1: focuses on twenty first rank safety out of one thirty 208 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:01,719 Speaker 1: three in terms of pass coverage. So I got a 209 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 1: safe b for Higbee. And lastly, I gotta see on 210 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 1: Stafford just because he has Cooper Cup and I like 211 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,719 Speaker 1: the matchup for Higbee and there's four quarterbacks on by 212 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 1: so that kind of bumped Stafford into the starting range. 213 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 1: But he's been pretty gross, has been bad his offensive lines. 214 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:20,680 Speaker 1: He was touchdown passes among quarterbacks who played each game. 215 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,560 Speaker 1: The rams are basically Stafford. The Rams are toast. They 216 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 1: should trade Cooper Cup, they should rebuild down Patriots take 217 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 1: on the Browns. The Patriots side of this is pretty fast. 218 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 1: Damian Harris, by the way, officially questionable, but when this 219 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 1: injury went down, people like he's gonna be out for 220 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 1: a month. Tom Brady is questionable for the Patriots. I'm 221 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 1: not buying it. Ramandre Stevenson's gonna get to start. He's 222 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: run well all season, five and a half yards per carry. 223 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 1: Browns have given up the most rushing yards and touchdowns 224 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 1: to running backs in the last three weeks. What's more, 225 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:51,839 Speaker 1: four or five runners who have gotten ten or more 226 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 1: carries have scored a touchdown against the Browns. Stevenson is 227 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 1: an A plus. No, there's no plus. He has an 228 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:02,959 Speaker 1: A start. What is an A star? You missed the 229 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 1: week where charge allowed plus grades and nobody bothered to 230 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 1: use them. Yeah I did. Jacoby Meyers has averaged one 231 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 1: d three yards with a score in his last two games. 232 00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:14,959 Speaker 1: He rarely scores, but he has recently. He logged a 233 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 1: one hundred yard game with Bailey Zappy last week, which 234 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: should be enough to command flex consideration this week against Cleveland. 235 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 1: Cleveland will be without Denzel Ward, their best cornerback this week. 236 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:29,160 Speaker 1: Brown secondary hasn't surrendered a receiver score in three straight games, 237 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: but they have allowed three one yard receivers in the 238 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 1: last three weeks. Jacoby Myers comes in with a C grade, 239 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 1: and all the rest of the passing game for the 240 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 1: Patriots are on the bench. Bailey's Happy, by the way, 241 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 1: looks quasi capable. Looks like Mac Jones did last year. 242 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,560 Speaker 1: Matt Jones is a solid five or six out of 243 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 1: ten as a quarterback. We've now seen enough of him 244 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 1: that I think we know about where he met in 245 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: the looks department. He's a beautiful man. Bailey Zappys are 246 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 1: identical twins. Bailey's Appy. He might end up being like 247 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 1: a two or three, but maybe he's a seven out 248 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,080 Speaker 1: of ten. I think they should play more Bailey's Appy, 249 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 1: even Mac Jones available. By the way, He's also questionable 250 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,439 Speaker 1: for this game. Mac Jones, but we're expecting a Bailey's 251 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: Appy led game. Let's go to Cleveland. Nick Chubb is 252 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,079 Speaker 1: an obvious say, but I'm just gonna I'm only gonna 253 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:20,079 Speaker 1: note this. Nick Chubb right now is number one among 254 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 1: running backs in rushing yards rushing touchdowns, yards after contact, 255 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 1: miss tackles, ten yard runs and twenty yard runs dominating 256 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 1: the position. Nick Chubb Kareem He comes into the obviously, 257 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt gets a B grade. Patriots run defense has 258 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 1: allowed one hundred sixty three rushing yards per game over 259 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 1: the past three weeks, and they now face Pro football 260 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:47,679 Speaker 1: Folks's best run blocking offensive line. The Patriots have yet 261 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: to allow running back to score touchdown, which is odd 262 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 1: and we'll probably that will change this week because this 263 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 1: is a team that's averaging two running back touchdowns a week. 264 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,320 Speaker 1: The Browns Kareem Hunt, this is his best start of 265 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,599 Speaker 1: the season, coming, her best opportunity this season coming, and 266 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 1: I've got a B grade on him. Among the people 267 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 1: in the passing game we're gonna consider here, we'll go 268 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:12,920 Speaker 1: with Amari Cooper with a B grade. Since that dud 269 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 1: in the season opener, one catch dud in the season opener, 270 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: he has the seventh most targets in the league. He's 271 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 1: got three touchdowns, He's got two yard performances. New England 272 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 1: second year has been very good, allowing just three wide 273 00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 1: receivers scores so far in the season. Cooper runs on 274 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 1: the outside that puts him into tough matchups against the 275 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 1: very good Jonathan Jones and also the resurrected Jalen Mills, 276 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 1: who had been bad but playing better this year. Jones 277 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 1: was just thirty or four yards per game, so a 278 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 1: tougher matchup for Cooper, but based on his level of 279 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 1: success recently, I'm still giving him a B grade here. 280 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 1: And David and Joco is the only other Cleveland player 281 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:48,280 Speaker 1: that you care about. Over the last three weeks, and 282 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 1: Joeku has been uh the fourth highest scoring tight end 283 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 1: then during that spand and Joke has logged five or 284 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: more receptions seventy or more receiving yards in every game. 285 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:00,560 Speaker 1: He can keep it going. Against New England, he uh, 286 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 1: he will probably need to score something. They've allowed the 287 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 1: most touchdowns, five of them to the position so far. 288 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 1: That being said, they just shut down T. J. Hockenson 289 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 1: last week, so there's no short thing here within Joku. 290 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 1: But in the tight end waste land this is a 291 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 1: very good opportunity. And to be grade on David and 292 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 1: Joko tight end wasteland, oh, I like it. We do 293 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 1: need a tight end wasteland sound effect of some sort, 294 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:31,320 Speaker 1: somebody some bubbling maybe maybe a nuclear bomb and waste. Alright, 295 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: it's not bad. When we come back, nine players not 296 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 1: normally in your starting lineup, find out upon whom you 297 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:39,600 Speaker 1: can take a chance. When we return to Fantasy Football Weekly, 298 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:11,200 Speaker 1: it's take a chance on me. Nine players not normally 299 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 1: in your starting lineup. We'll give you guys you can 300 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 1: start in a pinch in this the first bye week 301 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 1: of the twenty two season on Paul Charchi and Matt Harrison. 302 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: Brian Johnson with you. If you have not yet played 303 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: in a guillotine league, we are still forming new guillotine leagues. 304 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,520 Speaker 1: It's the beauty of not having a headhead format is 305 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: you can join any time. We'll continue making them through 306 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,240 Speaker 1: roughly the halfway point of the season. You still get 307 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 1: to play thirteen weeks of gaillotein league style Fantasy Football 308 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 1: Gaillotine Leagues dot Com. Let's begin at the quarterback position. Matt, 309 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 1: you take a chance on me quarterback. I would actually 310 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 1: like to pass on. Take a chance on me quarterback. 311 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 1: This week went through all my matchups. I didn't like 312 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 1: a lot of players this week. Uh So I ended 313 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 1: up on Geno Smith and he's probably too obvious at 314 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 1: this point, but I did see a few people picking 315 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 1: them up in leagues here and there. This week, if 316 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: he's still available, he's like a top eight starter. This week. 317 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 1: He's thrown for multiple scores in four or five and 318 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,640 Speaker 1: top three twenty yards and two of his last three. 319 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,679 Speaker 1: And remember when people thought it was a competition between 320 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 1: him and Drew Lock. The Cards are the opponent this week. 321 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 1: They've allowed a great game to every capable quarterback they 322 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 1: faced this year except for Matthew Stafford, who was just 323 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:24,240 Speaker 1: okay in that game. What's wrong with Pete Carroll? He 324 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:27,200 Speaker 1: had that quote he said that Drew Lock was nipping 325 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: at Geno Smith's heels. Like, how do you say something 326 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:35,920 Speaker 1: so preposterous? Yeah, Brandon Molesky, I hope that makes Pete 327 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 1: Carroll's a little preposterous. Bryan, you take a chance to 328 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 1: be quarterback. I got Jimmy g Jimmy Garoppolo. At Atlanta, 329 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 1: Opposing quarterbacks have attempted forty point two passes per game 330 00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: against the Falcons, the third highest clip in the NFL. 331 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:53,200 Speaker 1: Atlanta has surrendered multiple passing touchdowns or three fifty plus 332 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,120 Speaker 1: passing yards and four or five games. In the one 333 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:59,400 Speaker 1: game they didn't against Cleveland, Jacoby Brissette had a rushing touchdown. 334 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 1: We'll get more into the matchup later, but I love 335 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 1: it for the forts and wide receivers and George kittle So, 336 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,679 Speaker 1: Jimmy g I hope you're right about George kettle Man. 337 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 1: Do we need that might take a chance at the quarterback? 338 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 1: Is Daniel Jones? Get this? The only quarterbacks with more 339 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 1: rushing yards than Daniel Jones Nobody, Lamar Jackson and Jalen Hurts. 340 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 1: That's it, end of list. Then we come in with 341 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones at forty six rushing yards per game. That's legitimate. 342 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 1: We're running back territory at that point. And he hasn't 343 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:34,359 Speaker 1: fallen down yet, has not tripped himself at any point 344 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 1: in this season. Um, he's become quasi Bible. He's the 345 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,320 Speaker 1: fourteen highest scoring fantasy quarterback at this point, Daniel Jones 346 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 1: against all odds now. Baltimore secondaries returned to health recently 347 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,439 Speaker 1: and they've shut down Josh Allen and Joe Burrow. So 348 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:47,919 Speaker 1: I don't know that we're gonna get a lot of 349 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:50,639 Speaker 1: great passing out of Daniel Jones. But maybe it doesn't 350 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 1: matter because Baltimore has given up quarterback rushing touchdowns in 351 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:59,479 Speaker 1: three straight games. Let's make it for straight Daniel Jones, 352 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,640 Speaker 1: take a chance on me running back, Matt I went 353 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:05,919 Speaker 1: from Gineo and now I'm going to you know, uh, 354 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 1: you know Benjamin. That is, James Conner missed practice all 355 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 1: week with a rib injury. He's not expected to go. 356 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: Darryl Williams is doubtful with a knee injury, and fourth 357 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,879 Speaker 1: string running back Jonathan Ward was just placed on I 358 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:20,560 Speaker 1: R so by process of elimination. You know, Benjamin is 359 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 1: the only running back in the state of Arizona right now. 360 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 1: I don't even think Arizona State has one. Uh. This 361 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,959 Speaker 1: week he faces a Seattle Seahawks defense that is allowing 362 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,919 Speaker 1: four point nine yards per carry and one hundred and 363 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:36,880 Speaker 1: seventy six total yards per game to the running back position. 364 00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 1: Although I have a feeling there might be another runner 365 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,600 Speaker 1: in this game that's gonna get a little more action, 366 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 1: and we'll talk about him later. I'm looking forward to that. Bryan, 367 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 1: you're taking a chance on me running back. I got 368 00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay's Richid White at Pittsburgh, who has allowed the 369 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: eleventh most rushing yards and the seventh most rushing touchdowns 370 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,720 Speaker 1: running back so far, there will remain without t J. 371 00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 1: Watt and could also be missing safety Terrell Edmonds and 372 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:03,879 Speaker 1: defensive tackle Larry Ogan Job and they've ruled out their 373 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:07,879 Speaker 1: other safety, making Fitzpatrick and their top three cornerbacks. That's 374 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 1: this is garbage time. On the good side for garbage 375 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: time before the anthem ends. White had nine opportunities last week, 376 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:18,640 Speaker 1: but should see more in a game where the Bucks 377 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 1: are favored by eight and a half points as of 378 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 1: right now, that might go up. And the Steelers allowed 379 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: more than seven yards per carry to Buffalose running backs 380 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 1: last week. James Cook scored in garbage time in Pittsburgh 381 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,160 Speaker 1: is now allowed a running back touchdown in four straight games, 382 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 1: so we'll see some four net We should see a 383 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 1: fair amount of White feels like that one should be 384 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: eighteen and a half. It might move to that. Mike 385 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,399 Speaker 1: Boone has got a nice opportunity against the Chargers. The 386 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 1: team giving up six point two yards per carry that 387 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,679 Speaker 1: is horrific. At the same time, they're also giving up 388 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:51,479 Speaker 1: the fourth most receptions to running backs. They've given up 389 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:55,440 Speaker 1: three touchdowns through the air, and in my eyes, Mike 390 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 1: Boon while only getting half of the carries that Melvin 391 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:00,680 Speaker 1: Gordon got last week in that first game, fully without 392 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 1: Javonte Williams look demonstrably better objectively better than Melvin Gordon, 393 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,879 Speaker 1: who is one fumble away from riding the pine and 394 00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,560 Speaker 1: maybe just a few bad carries away. I think I 395 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,159 Speaker 1: think Boone looks like the best running back on roster 396 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 1: at this point. I'm gonna give him a try against 397 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,920 Speaker 1: the Charges hrch. Boone has been limited with a foot 398 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 1: injury all week. In practice, I'd keep in your back 399 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:26,000 Speaker 1: pocket Lottavius Murray as as another guy that you could 400 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:29,360 Speaker 1: spring to there because Melvin Gordon also dealing with both 401 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,679 Speaker 1: neck and rib injuries, and for all the things that 402 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 1: you mentioned, Littavius Murray could step in and just walk 403 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 1: into a great game. It's a somebody who's going to 404 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:43,439 Speaker 1: eat the Chargers run defense a lot. Absolutely. Let's go 405 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:47,600 Speaker 1: to the tight end position here. It is the bye weeks. 406 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,920 Speaker 1: So many people with either a bad tight end or 407 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: a bye week tight end. How can you help them? 408 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 1: Man the long and forgotten no offense. He's on the Seahawks. 409 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,440 Speaker 1: Now he's playing against the Cardinals. In the Cardinals have 410 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,919 Speaker 1: allowed the most receptions and the second most yards to 411 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,679 Speaker 1: the tight end position. Oh, by the way, the worst 412 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 1: player in coverage in the NFL is Arizona linebacker Isaiah Simmons, 413 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,239 Speaker 1: who is tasked with covering the tight end. He's the 414 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:15,399 Speaker 1: only player in the NFL with at least a hundred 415 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 1: coverage snaps that has allowed a perfect passer rating in 416 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 1: his coverage. Guests who snap percentage has gone up in 417 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,880 Speaker 1: each of the last four weeks, it's no offense. Guests 418 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:26,959 Speaker 1: who had the high target mark for Seattle tight ends 419 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:29,359 Speaker 1: in a game. Last week it was no offense and 420 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 1: it was the only five targets. But let's see if 421 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 1: you can break one against the porous Cardinals tight end defense. 422 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 1: We're gonna play some fantasy football man, Brian, your take 423 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 1: a chance on me receiver? Well, you said earlier we 424 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,400 Speaker 1: were talking about Daniel Jones. We may not see much passing, 425 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 1: but we will because I've got Darius Slayton, Giants wide 426 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 1: receiver against the Ravens. Slayton looks solid against the Packers 427 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:55,399 Speaker 1: last week, totaling six catches for seventy nine yards on 428 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 1: seven targets. Seven targets is what the rest of the 429 00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 1: Giants wide receivers combined for in that game, and the 430 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,879 Speaker 1: Ravens are allowing sixteen catches, two seventeen yards, and more 431 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,879 Speaker 1: than one touchdown per game to opposing wide receivers. He 432 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: has to get Marcus Peters back, but he's still a 433 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: little banged up. Cornerback Marcus Peters that is, but Baltimore 434 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:15,159 Speaker 1: had to put starting safety Marcus Williams on I R. 435 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 1: And as much as I love Rich James, I gotta 436 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: go with Darius Slayton this week. James is terrible. They're 437 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:28,240 Speaker 1: leading receiver. Well, they're leading, that's not saying much. Another 438 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 1: tight end for you to consider that they're probably on 439 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:34,400 Speaker 1: the waiver wire is Evan Ingram. Coming off a ten 440 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 1: target game with sixty nine yards. He goes up against Indy, 441 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 1: the Colts allowing more than five catches and fifty six 442 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 1: yards per game to tight ends and they've given up 443 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 1: the second most tight touchdowns to tight ends as well. 444 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 1: These teams met in Week two. Ingram seven catches on 445 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: eight targets in that game as well. Evan Ingram, a 446 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 1: terrific start, XT could be available on your waiver wire. 447 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 1: Let's go back to the matchups, beginning with the Jaguars 448 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 1: taking on the Indianapolis Colts. Matt, this is a This 449 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:12,960 Speaker 1: is a Jaguars offense that dominated Indianapolis back in Week two. 450 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:14,359 Speaker 1: What do you think of this match? Yeah, and you 451 00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 1: just mentioned Evan Engram. I gave him a CE. He 452 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 1: was your take a chance on me tight end? Uh 453 00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 1: staying in the passing game, Trevor Lawrence. These two teams 454 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 1: did play in Week two. Lawrence recorded a stat line 455 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 1: of two thirty five and two touchdowns in that one. 456 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 1: The Colts are nearly a top ten defense against the past, 457 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:34,159 Speaker 1: allowing only too nine and about a touchdown and a 458 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 1: half per game. That's probably the high water mark for 459 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:41,639 Speaker 1: Lawrence and this one. I actually think I'd prefer leaving 460 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:45,080 Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence on the bench. But of the two quarterbacks 461 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:47,680 Speaker 1: in this game, if I gotta start one, it's Lawrence 462 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: slightly ahead of Matt Ryan. Christian Kirk gets a C grade. 463 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:54,199 Speaker 1: Marvin Jones is on the bench. The Colts are the 464 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 1: number one defense against wide receivers this year, allowing only 465 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 1: one eighteen yards per game to the position. However, the 466 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:04,240 Speaker 1: biggest Fantasy day they have given up all year was 467 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 1: to Christian Kirk in Week two, who went for six catches, 468 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:10,600 Speaker 1: seventy eight yards and two scores in the Week two meetings. 469 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 1: It's worth noting Christian Kirk will be facing off against 470 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 1: Kenny Moore, and Kenny Moore has allowed all three of 471 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 1: the Colts wide receiver touchdowns this year. Kirk had two 472 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 1: of those three. Uh James Robinson and Travis e t 473 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:28,880 Speaker 1: N the Runners. It looks like Robinson was a clear 474 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 1: winner in the camp battle as we started the season, 475 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 1: but the snap percentage has gone from sixty three percent 476 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,919 Speaker 1: in Week two to in Week five for Robinson and 477 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:39,880 Speaker 1: then on the other side for e t N it's 478 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:43,199 Speaker 1: gone from thirty seven percent to fifty three percent in 479 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:45,960 Speaker 1: that same time frame. The last two weeks, each back 480 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 1: has had the exact same amount of carries in both games. Now, 481 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 1: Robinson didn't go for sixty four and to score in 482 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 1: the first meeting, but I'm going to give him a 483 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,359 Speaker 1: bench grade here. The Colts are top seven in rushing 484 00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 1: yards and yards per carry allowed to opposing back, but 485 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:04,680 Speaker 1: they're allowing the sixth most receptions and the second most 486 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,760 Speaker 1: receiving yards two runners. That's where e t N comes in. 487 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,200 Speaker 1: He gets the c in this one as he's utilized 488 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:13,359 Speaker 1: much more in the passing game over on, although not 489 00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 1: as much as I thought he would be to this point. Yeah, 490 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 1: it could be a little more. It's trending the right 491 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,920 Speaker 1: way though, for sure. Over on the other side, Jonathan 492 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:24,119 Speaker 1: Taylor looks like he's gonna go. He's questionable, but it 493 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: looks like he's going to be back in this one. 494 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 1: He's not. I'm going to give him a B grade. 495 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,639 Speaker 1: Taylor did average six yards per carry in the first 496 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:36,480 Speaker 1: meeting on only nine carries in that game. Nine times 497 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:42,680 Speaker 1: nine times turns nine time. Alright, Michael Pittman and Alec Pierce, 498 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 1: I'm giving C grades to both of them. The Jags 499 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 1: are allowing nine point eight receptions per game to the 500 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 1: wide receiver position as a whole, so we're only looking 501 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:53,880 Speaker 1: at like five catches for each of them in this one. 502 00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 1: But really, it's time to acquire the Colts passing game 503 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:02,160 Speaker 1: because after this week the schedule it's considerably easier. Five 504 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:05,639 Speaker 1: of their next six games are against bottom ten past defenses, 505 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,960 Speaker 1: So go get your Colts. That includes Matt Ryan. I'm 506 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 1: leaving him on the bench this week though he's like 507 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,399 Speaker 1: the highest D grade. Imagine, well, if there was one 508 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:15,159 Speaker 1: of those, but I'll leave him on the bench. Uh 509 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 1: he's just two inconsistent and the Jags have been very 510 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:21,360 Speaker 1: good against the past. They're only allowing to twenty nine 511 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 1: and one through the air on the air, same as 512 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 1: the Colts. Actually, Ryan only managed one yards in the 513 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 1: first meeting where the Colts were in garbage time most 514 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,160 Speaker 1: of that game. They got shut out in that one, 515 00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:35,960 Speaker 1: and Matt Ryan still couldn't get to two yards. He 516 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 1: didn't appear some Pittman in the games Drew. Yeah, all right, 517 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:41,199 Speaker 1: he's on the bench though. I think that probably does 518 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 1: make sense. Brian. We'll need to be quick, but let's 519 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:47,200 Speaker 1: work through Bucks and Steelers. You liked your shot White, 520 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:50,280 Speaker 1: so obviously you gotta like Leo four Nette as well. Yeah. 521 00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:52,919 Speaker 1: Only three eight yards per carry for four net with 522 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 1: one rushing touchdown so far, but he's second and catches 523 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,640 Speaker 1: among running backs, tied with Christian McCaffrey, trailing only Austin Ankela. 524 00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:02,040 Speaker 1: As we mentioned before, the whole Steelers defense is basically injured, 525 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 1: so there's a lot of starting grades here. Uh at 526 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 1: a for foreign net as you mentioned, where child White 527 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:08,359 Speaker 1: might take a chance on me running back Mike Evans, 528 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 1: Chris God, would they both get a's. The Steelers allowing 529 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 1: two one yards uh to wide receivers per game in 530 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 1: one point eight touchdowns per game. That was before missing 531 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 1: their top three cornerbacks and starting safety Fitzpatrick, so easy 532 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 1: age for them. I might be tended to go Tampa 533 00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:26,119 Speaker 1: Bay wide receiver three. I gin guess would be Russell 534 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 1: Gauge at this point, but it feels like too much 535 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 1: of a blowout to I'll reach that far. I'll give 536 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 1: Kay dot in a seed tight ending. I was gonna 537 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:35,680 Speaker 1: go bench, but I mean it's the tight end waste land. 538 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 1: So start Kay Dotton against the JV squad the tight 539 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 1: end waste land, please, and then Tom Brady he gets 540 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 1: an a. Uh, just I'm not gonna go into that anymore. 541 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,200 Speaker 1: Tom Brady gets a in this matchup. Now over the 542 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:55,520 Speaker 1: Steelers side, there's nothing to like here. Basically, Nagie Harris 543 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 1: and Jalen Mooren, who are like fifty fifty split right 544 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 1: now in that backfield, well that was last week when 545 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 1: they got blown out. Well they're gonna get blown out again. 546 00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 1: So they're both on the bench. The Bucks allowing ninety 547 00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 1: two rushing yards in less than half a touchdown per 548 00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 1: game to opposing running backs on the ground at Tampa 549 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 1: Bay also allowing just eleven point to receiving yards per 550 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 1: game to running backs. That's what was clipped in the league. 551 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 1: I got them both on the bench this week. By 552 00:29:18,040 --> 00:29:20,680 Speaker 1: the way, Um, if if I can Peacock for a 553 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 1: moment a week ago and this show, we Bay in 554 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 1: a move, Nagi Harris while you could, and I hope 555 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 1: you acted on that because his his draft stock is 556 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 1: free falling right now, Nagy Harris, and it's not going 557 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 1: to get better with the upcoming schedule, including this game. 558 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 1: Over to the wide receivers, I probably should mention George 559 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 1: Pickens first. I'm gonna go with the ante Johnson to 560 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 1: give him a see. He led the Steelers with thirteen 561 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 1: targets and Kenny Pickett's first start, which was encouraging considering 562 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:50,680 Speaker 1: Pickett didn't look his way much when he came in 563 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 1: relief in Week four, But not a great matchup for 564 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 1: Johnson or the rest of the receivers. The Bucks are 565 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 1: allowing less than a hundred and fifty yards per game 566 00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:00,160 Speaker 1: to wide receivers and no loan receiver has topped eight 567 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 1: yards against them. That said, Tampa Bay has surrendered four 568 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:06,240 Speaker 1: wide receiver touchdowns over the last four So I will 569 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 1: give a seed to Johnson and to George Pickens, who 570 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,959 Speaker 1: now has led the Steelers in UH catches and yards 571 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:14,120 Speaker 1: and back to back games which happened to be Kenny 572 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:20,600 Speaker 1: Picketts too. They clearly have chemistry. Chase Claypool probably failed chemistry. 573 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 1: He's on the bench. Including last year's wild Card, he 574 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:28,840 Speaker 1: has totaled two touchdowns over his last twenty games. Brutal gross. 575 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,240 Speaker 1: So he's on the bench. Pat Fryer moved unfortunately. He 576 00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 1: has been ruled out three concussions since the start of 577 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 1: last year. That's kind of scary. He is out and 578 00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:39,920 Speaker 1: uh or he's out and on the bench, and Kenny 579 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 1: Pickett he's on the bench too. There's a chance he 580 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 1: could cobble together some garbage time production. That's what you'd 581 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 1: be looking at. He feels like more of like a 582 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:50,320 Speaker 1: DFS dart. I'm not recommending starting him in a seasonal 583 00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 1: formats can't do it. There's some it's the quarterback situation 584 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 1: is not great this week with all the bye weeks 585 00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:58,440 Speaker 1: and then everything else, and Canny pick It in garbage 586 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:00,920 Speaker 1: time actually makes a little bit of sense. When we 587 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:04,200 Speaker 1: come back, the Vikings take on the Dolphins. Not a 588 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 1: lot of clarity on this Dolphins quarterback situation. How does 589 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:10,360 Speaker 1: that affect Jald Waddle and Tyreek Hill. We'll tell you 590 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 1: when we come back to Fantasy Football Weekly. Welcome back, 591 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 1: It's Fantasy Football Weekly. Paul Charchi and Matt Harrison and 592 00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:35,120 Speaker 1: Bryan Johnson with you. All of my play rankings available 593 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 1: for free at Guillotine leagues dot com. Next matchup up 594 00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 1: Vikings versus the Dolphins. Let's start on the Viking side. 595 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:46,920 Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook and Justin Jefferson are obvious a's, but as 596 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:50,920 Speaker 1: we turn to the passing game, Kirk Cousins only averaging 597 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:53,120 Speaker 1: one point three touchdowns per game, which is not great 598 00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:57,160 Speaker 1: in a weirdly short six point six average depth of target, 599 00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 1: which is the third lowest in the NFL for a 600 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 1: strong armed quarterback. And I know if it's just scheme, 601 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. If Kirk's playing it safe and going 602 00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:07,160 Speaker 1: to checkdowns too much seems pretty schemy to me. I 603 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 1: mean that that that's kind of the Shanahan tree. That 604 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 1: that rams Kevin O'Connell Sean McVeigh offense right. Fortunately for 605 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,040 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins the Dolphins that bring in a very banged 606 00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 1: up secondary that has not played well. Sophomore quarterbacks Mac 607 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:24,760 Speaker 1: Jones and Zack Wilson struggled against Miami, but everybody else 608 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 1: averaging three hundred thirty five yards per game and almost 609 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:30,640 Speaker 1: three touchdowns per game. I would love to get the 610 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,280 Speaker 1: three thirty five and three for Kirk Cousins. That feels 611 00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:37,520 Speaker 1: a little aggressive, so we'll put a B grade on Kirk. 612 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:41,720 Speaker 1: Pro Football Focus has Miami with the third worst coverage ranking, 613 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,480 Speaker 1: which brings into play Adam fieland four straight games of 614 00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:47,960 Speaker 1: the least seven targets, which is good. Check the injury 615 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 1: status of cornerbacks Xavian Howard and Byron Jones. Check their 616 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 1: status and see if you if they're gonna be able 617 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 1: to go or not. Byron Jones will be making his 618 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,320 Speaker 1: first start of the year if he's able to. Xavian 619 00:32:57,360 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 1: Howard has been on and off playing hurt and hasn't 620 00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 1: played particularly well. Last week, Miami had to start something 621 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 1: called cater Cohu had to cover both the slot and 622 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 1: outside duties. And yes, does he cater to wide receiver production, 623 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 1: Yes he does, a matter of fact, and in a 624 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:21,040 Speaker 1: bye week We're gonna give r Smith a C grade here. 625 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 1: Um really, so far he's only had one half decent 626 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 1: fantasy game and the rest of the duds. But the 627 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 1: Dolphins have allowed the fourth most receptions and the seventh 628 00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 1: most yards to tight ends this season. I mentioned secondary 629 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:36,280 Speaker 1: has got a bunch of injury problems, So maybe if 630 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 1: Smith gets old something done here, we'll give him a 631 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 1: C grade in this game. Miami's quarterback is at this 632 00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 1: point unknown. I think I think it's gonna be Teddy, 633 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 1: who's gotten in full practices this week. They just need 634 00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 1: to clear him through this new concussion protocol to go 635 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 1: the dolphin rule. The dolphin rule, and he's a dolphin, 636 00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 1: and so I don't know. My sense is that he's 637 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:02,120 Speaker 1: gonna be a ailable in this, sir, But the NFL 638 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 1: is going to be hyper sensitive, especially with Dolphins quarterbacks. Yes, well, 639 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,479 Speaker 1: without a doubt, So I don't know for sure. Here's 640 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:10,759 Speaker 1: what I can tell you is, I don't even know 641 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:14,440 Speaker 1: that Teddy's an upgrade over Skyler Thompson. Teddy one touchdown 642 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:17,759 Speaker 1: per game over his sixty three NFL career starts. So 643 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:21,719 Speaker 1: in either case, it's not a great sign for Tyree Hill. 644 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:24,680 Speaker 1: And Jalen Waddle. Let's talk about them. He'll he'll, He'll 645 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:28,760 Speaker 1: hauled in all seven targets from Thompson against the Jets, 646 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:31,319 Speaker 1: and I think he would get better results against a 647 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:33,960 Speaker 1: Vikings secondary that honestly is not as good as the Jets. 648 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:37,800 Speaker 1: They've surrendered hundred sixty three yards per game to receivers. 649 00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 1: That is the twelfth and most the Vikings cornerbacks. You've 650 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:43,880 Speaker 1: got Patrick Peterson, Cam Danceler, Chandon Sullivan. They're all bigger, 651 00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:47,920 Speaker 1: physical cornerbacks. They are not fast, you know, it's really fast. 652 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:51,760 Speaker 1: Tyree Hill and Jaalen Waddle really fast. So the speed 653 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:54,680 Speaker 1: advantage those days can be electric and they can break 654 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 1: open some plays. I still like Hill and Waddle between them, 655 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 1: I think there's enough big play to merit B grades 656 00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:05,480 Speaker 1: regardless of whoever the quarterback is. But we'll keep quarterback 657 00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 1: unnamed quarterback on the bench. We don't know who it's 658 00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,680 Speaker 1: going to be yet um, but Hill and Waddle again, 659 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:12,960 Speaker 1: they could break open enough big place to start whoever 660 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:16,800 Speaker 1: it is. The for the running game, I'm really intrigued 661 00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:18,840 Speaker 1: by Raheem Mostart, assuming he's able to play through his 662 00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:22,400 Speaker 1: knee injury. He's an explosive runner. He's only at fifty 663 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 1: seven rushing attempts, but he's in the top six among 664 00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 1: all runners in twenty yard gains. The Vikings have not 665 00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:30,960 Speaker 1: allowed of running back to hit ninety yards yet, but 666 00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:33,360 Speaker 1: they've they're giving up four and a half yards per carry. 667 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:35,239 Speaker 1: Then get a little something done against the Vikings. They 668 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:37,920 Speaker 1: also give up the ninth most receptions, most of my 669 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,359 Speaker 1: chipping a little bit through the air, Chase Edmonds dead 670 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:45,680 Speaker 1: by the way ten snaps last week. Files Gascon might 671 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:48,160 Speaker 1: be the backup at this point if it turns out 672 00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:52,080 Speaker 1: where he Mostard cannot go alright, next game up, Jets 673 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:54,560 Speaker 1: taking on the Packers. Matt, are there any Is there 674 00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:59,480 Speaker 1: any parts of the Jets passing game that I can start? No? Alright, 675 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:04,360 Speaker 1: that's simplify yep. The Packers are allowing the fewest passing 676 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:07,080 Speaker 1: attempts and yards and have only allowed four passing scores 677 00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:10,680 Speaker 1: on the year. So Zack Wilson, Garrett Wilson, Elijah Moore, 678 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:14,280 Speaker 1: Corey Davis all on the bench. Actually, after getting torched 679 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:17,160 Speaker 1: by Justin Jefferson in Week one, the pack have been 680 00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:20,000 Speaker 1: awesome against the past. In weeks two through five, They've 681 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,839 Speaker 1: only allowed two touchdowns the wide receivers, and only two 682 00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 1: wide receivers have topped forty six yards against Green Bay. 683 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:28,920 Speaker 1: Wilson is the top scorer but getting the fewest snaps. 684 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:31,279 Speaker 1: Corey Davis is on the wire in most leagues, and 685 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:34,080 Speaker 1: we're about to argue that Elijah Moore should be too. 686 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:36,759 Speaker 1: Tyler Conklin can't even see the daylight. The pack are 687 00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:39,160 Speaker 1: allowing three catches for twenty eight yards to the tight 688 00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:41,800 Speaker 1: end position. Not a single tight end is scored against 689 00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:45,040 Speaker 1: them whole passing games on the bench, the running game 690 00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:48,040 Speaker 1: not so much. Bruce Hall has taken over the backfield. 691 00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:50,840 Speaker 1: They're winning the touch count nineteen to eleven and twenty 692 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:53,960 Speaker 1: to twelve over Michael Carter over the past two weeks. 693 00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:56,680 Speaker 1: Last week it included a hundred and ninety seven total 694 00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:59,359 Speaker 1: yards in a score. The Packers weak spot has been 695 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:03,359 Speaker 1: the run and other tandem backfields like let's say the Patriots. 696 00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:07,839 Speaker 1: Uh Stevenson and Harris both managed eighty five total yards 697 00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,319 Speaker 1: against Green Bay just a few weeks ago. So Hall 698 00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:12,279 Speaker 1: gets the A as I think they feature him here. 699 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:15,239 Speaker 1: Carter gets the sea. He'll still be heavily involved, and 700 00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:17,080 Speaker 1: I think he's involved in the past game a lot. 701 00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:21,360 Speaker 1: On the other side, another duo of running backs, Aaron 702 00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 1: Jones and A J. Dillon. You're angling that the Packers 703 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 1: try to duplicate what the Browns did to the Jets 704 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:30,239 Speaker 1: by way of the run. That was Nick Chubb and 705 00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:33,680 Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt, who combined for one and eighty seven total 706 00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:36,520 Speaker 1: yards and three touchdowns in the Week two meeting. The 707 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:39,640 Speaker 1: problem is it took Hunt and Chubb thirty five touches 708 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 1: to do that. Now, Dylan and Jones have combined for 709 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:45,960 Speaker 1: more than thirty five touches in a game twice this season, 710 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 1: but in the others it's been like twive So I'm 711 00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:52,359 Speaker 1: gonna give them both bees. And I think we're due 712 00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:54,560 Speaker 1: for a big A J. Dillon game here. Well, we 713 00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:56,879 Speaker 1: are doo for but that doesn't doesn't mean it's gonna 714 00:37:56,920 --> 00:37:58,560 Speaker 1: get it. But I think it's kind of Aaron Jones 715 00:37:58,600 --> 00:38:02,480 Speaker 1: looks demonstrably better and A J this was this is 716 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:05,680 Speaker 1: this is a little bit of a gut call, you know. Uh. 717 00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:08,600 Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, he gets a B grade. His tackles still 718 00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:12,319 Speaker 1: aren't healthy, Elton Jenkins still limited in practice. David bak 719 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:15,640 Speaker 1: tr actually split snaps last week. He was one series 720 00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:17,759 Speaker 1: on one series off. Kind of a weird thing to 721 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:20,279 Speaker 1: do with the left tackle. Rodgers has thrown for two 722 00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:22,640 Speaker 1: scores in every game but Week one, but he hasn't 723 00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:25,600 Speaker 1: top two hundred fifty five yards this season. The Jets 724 00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:29,879 Speaker 1: pass defense number looks better because they've faced a half 725 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:33,080 Speaker 1: Drubisky half Picket Steelers team and a half Teddy half 726 00:38:33,080 --> 00:38:36,239 Speaker 1: Skyler Thompson Dolphins team in the last two weeks. I'm 727 00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 1: willing to bet that this team is closer to a 728 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:41,160 Speaker 1: bottom ten past defense like it was last year, and 729 00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:43,600 Speaker 1: just some of their opponents have propped up their numbers 730 00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:50,080 Speaker 1: a little is totally legit um. Speaking of wide receivers 731 00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 1: that Sauce Gardner might face, Romeo Dobbs and Alan Lazard 732 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:57,359 Speaker 1: are almost equal and snaps, targets, yards, and scores over 733 00:38:57,400 --> 00:38:59,359 Speaker 1: the last three weeks. They both get a c. I'm 734 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 1: even gonna give a Randall cobbassy here cops a thirteen 735 00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 1: targets last week and faces the easiest match up here 736 00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:08,840 Speaker 1: in the That is the other Michael Carter problem is 737 00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:10,719 Speaker 1: he's on the field for about half the snaps that 738 00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:13,960 Speaker 1: Dobbs and Lazard are as for them, they're both t 739 00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:17,359 Speaker 1: D dependent and Sauce Gardner and DJ Reid have both 740 00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:20,399 Speaker 1: been above average and Pro Football Focus grades this year, 741 00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:24,040 Speaker 1: so just sees for those guys. Robert Tonyan's the last 742 00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:27,320 Speaker 1: guy gonna mention he's on the bench. Marcedes Lewis actually 743 00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:29,880 Speaker 1: out snapped him last week, and Vulture a short touchdown. 744 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:32,920 Speaker 1: The Jets aren't are particularly great matchup, and there's other 745 00:39:32,960 --> 00:39:35,239 Speaker 1: angles to hit, even in the tight end. Waste Land 746 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 1: have an ingram somebody I recommend it? Did your tight 747 00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 1: end again? Was Gosh? Noah fant Kate Otten we talked about. 748 00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:46,360 Speaker 1: Are all some tight ends you could go get? Brian 749 00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:49,160 Speaker 1: forty Niners taking on the Falcons. You already told us 750 00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:52,280 Speaker 1: you like Jimmy Garoppolo in this game, so I gotta 751 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 1: believe you like his receivers. I do, Yeah, Jimmy gee 752 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:57,160 Speaker 1: Was might take a chance of the quarterback, So Deebo 753 00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:00,440 Speaker 1: Samuel he gets an a opposing wide receivers or averaging 754 00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:03,640 Speaker 1: fifteen catches, yards and more than a touchdown per game 755 00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:07,080 Speaker 1: against the Falcons. Samuel has been targeted five times inside 756 00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:09,279 Speaker 1: the ten yard line so far, and the Falcons have 757 00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:11,920 Speaker 1: allowed five receiving touchdowns inside the ten yard line to 758 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 1: wide receivers of this season, the most in the NFL. Uh. 759 00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 1: These teams actually met last year. Samue led four catches 760 00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:19,640 Speaker 1: for eighty nine combo yards in a rushing touchdown against Atlanta. 761 00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:22,839 Speaker 1: So in a for debot just to see for see 762 00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 1: for Brandon Ayuk though, it's a good matchup. But Ayuk 763 00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 1: has not seen a lot of volumes so far this season. 764 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:31,080 Speaker 1: He's only top three catches twice his season highest five 765 00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:33,759 Speaker 1: catches so far, and he's only gone over six year 766 00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:37,080 Speaker 1: receiving yards once in five games. In that game against 767 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 1: the Falcons last year, he also just had one catch. 768 00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:42,040 Speaker 1: So a soft sea for Ayuk. But I feel a 769 00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:44,359 Speaker 1: bounce back game for George Kittle here, Gonna give him 770 00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:49,279 Speaker 1: a b how about on the last season? Yeah, pretty much. Uh, 771 00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:51,799 Speaker 1: the Falcons have allowed these second most receptions and the 772 00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:54,640 Speaker 1: third most yards the tight ends. Kittle caught six balls 773 00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:57,920 Speaker 1: for ninety three yards and last season's meeting with Falcons. 774 00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:00,719 Speaker 1: And lastly for well, I'll see the two guys left 775 00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:03,200 Speaker 1: in the running game. Jeff Wilson. First off, he gets 776 00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:06,480 Speaker 1: an A. In fourteen career games with at least fifteen touches, 777 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:09,719 Speaker 1: Wilson has averaged a hundred one combo yards with thirteen 778 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:12,400 Speaker 1: total touchdowns in those four teen games. And in this offense, 779 00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:15,480 Speaker 1: he always gets the touches he does. And that's the 780 00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:18,640 Speaker 1: beauty that Jeff Wilson brings. And whoever the starting running 781 00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 1: back is for the Niners, you know you're gonna get volume. 782 00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:24,160 Speaker 1: And meanwhile, Atlanta has allowed a running back to reach 783 00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:27,359 Speaker 1: that fifteen touch threshold in four consecutive games, and those 784 00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:30,759 Speaker 1: running backs have averaged ninety nine combo yards with three 785 00:41:30,800 --> 00:41:33,759 Speaker 1: total touchdowns in those four games. So love Wilson. And 786 00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:36,120 Speaker 1: if you're very desperate, like Matt says he is, he's 787 00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:39,200 Speaker 1: starting Tevin Coleman in a revenge game, So I guess 788 00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:42,879 Speaker 1: game against half the league, So I'll give. I'll give 789 00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 1: Coleman to see if you're super desperate. And uh, speaking 790 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,040 Speaker 1: of super desperate, that's what you are. If you're gonna 791 00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:52,520 Speaker 1: contemplate starting uh more than maybe one of these Falcons 792 00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:55,640 Speaker 1: will get into it real quick. The running game. Tyler Algier, 793 00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:58,720 Speaker 1: Caleb Puntly both on the bench. The forty Niners defense 794 00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:01,799 Speaker 1: has allowed rushes of ten lost yards on just seven 795 00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:04,479 Speaker 1: of a hundred and thirteen carries. They've seen that six 796 00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:07,400 Speaker 1: percent the best clip in the league. The league averages 797 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:11,040 Speaker 1: twelve percent, so they're basically halving that. So I bet 798 00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:14,879 Speaker 1: Tyler l Jeers not starting himself this week. We gotta 799 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:17,720 Speaker 1: ask Scott Fish about that one, but I'm not starting 800 00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:20,040 Speaker 1: on that's for sure. They're both on the bench. I'll 801 00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 1: give Drake London to see um the Niners having allowed 802 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,720 Speaker 1: a wide receiver touchdown since Week one. Shockingly, the Bears 803 00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:31,640 Speaker 1: wide receivers had two in that game in a monsoon. 804 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:35,560 Speaker 1: But number one wide receivers have fared well against the Niners. 805 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:37,880 Speaker 1: Tyler Lockett, I'm gonna call him the number one receiver 806 00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:40,000 Speaker 1: over d K Mackott Metcalf so far, by the way, 807 00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:42,719 Speaker 1: he had nine for one oh seven. Courtland Sudden had 808 00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:45,680 Speaker 1: eight for ninety seven yards, and Cooper Cup had fourteen 809 00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:48,200 Speaker 1: catches for a hundred twenty two yards. D J. Moore 810 00:42:48,320 --> 00:42:52,200 Speaker 1: almost had sixty yards against so that's probably a floor 811 00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:54,480 Speaker 1: for London. I'll give him a see. I'm not gonna 812 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:58,279 Speaker 1: go to Olamida Zakias, but I will mention you did 813 00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:00,440 Speaker 1: scold Scott Fish last week for bringing him up. He 814 00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:02,960 Speaker 1: didn't go on to score touchdown of that, so that 815 00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:06,960 Speaker 1: one's for you, Scott, it was not a scolding, semi scolding. Uh. 816 00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:09,680 Speaker 1: Now I'm gonna scold myself for Kyle Pitts so far 817 00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:16,239 Speaker 1: still still gets to see likely back in action, but 818 00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 1: awfome matchup. Uh. San Francisco is a lout of the 819 00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:22,000 Speaker 1: second fewest Fantasy points in the third fewest yards at 820 00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:24,000 Speaker 1: tight ends so far this season. He might sit, but 821 00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:25,960 Speaker 1: if he plays, I'll give him the sea And I'm 822 00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:29,439 Speaker 1: benching Marcus Mariota. When a quarterback's passing prop is over 823 00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:32,480 Speaker 1: under at two yards, that's not good. You benched that quarterback. 824 00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:35,280 Speaker 1: Now he would have to run his way to solid 825 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:37,440 Speaker 1: game and that would be your only option on Marcus 826 00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:40,000 Speaker 1: Mariota when we come back. It's a game we call 827 00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:43,080 Speaker 1: three tough questions. This is where you get to compete 828 00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:44,840 Speaker 1: with my co host to try to go three and 829 00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:47,279 Speaker 1: Oh and maybe you'd like to jump into a new 830 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:50,439 Speaker 1: league mid season. Start with a fresh draft, utilize everything 831 00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:53,920 Speaker 1: you've learned. Guillotine Leagues dot Com new leagues being formed 832 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:57,760 Speaker 1: basically anytime there's not an active game going on most 833 00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:00,600 Speaker 1: most days, you can still join a guillotine league. Looking 834 00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:02,960 Speaker 1: Sunday morning, you could jump into a new draft right 835 00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:05,200 Speaker 1: then and there. Guillotine Leagues dot Com our number two 836 00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:28,439 Speaker 1: fantasy football weekly. Coming up next, it's our number two 837 00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:34,720 Speaker 1: fantasy football weekly. I am Paul charchying co host Matt Harrison. 838 00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:38,400 Speaker 1: Brian Johnson can follow us on Twitter. We have fascinating 839 00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:42,879 Speaker 1: social media content, yes absolutely at Paul Charchy and Fake 840 00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:46,000 Speaker 1: Charge Charge tweets about video games and board games and 841 00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:48,560 Speaker 1: fantasy football all the time, and some whiskey in there 842 00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:50,239 Speaker 1: time to time as well, and a variety of other 843 00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:52,920 Speaker 1: dumb stuff. I pride myself on the dumb stuff mostly 844 00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:56,920 Speaker 1: at Matt Matt Harrison you're at Explosive Output, and Brian 845 00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:59,880 Speaker 1: Johnson at b t x J. I have a puppy, 846 00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:02,879 Speaker 1: you do. It's a lot of puppy pictures right now? 847 00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:06,839 Speaker 1: What else do you want? And now? Is Ruby's uncreating 848 00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:09,960 Speaker 1: is like three and oh or three for three or something? Right? Yeah? 849 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:12,440 Speaker 1: I got a little greedy in one game. I don't remember. 850 00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:16,600 Speaker 1: I think a Durham smithe Ruby didn't eat that night, 851 00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:18,680 Speaker 1: but I let her out efens pretty sad. That's the game. 852 00:45:18,719 --> 00:45:23,520 Speaker 1: We call three tough questions. Question number one Kenneth Walker 853 00:45:24,080 --> 00:45:27,520 Speaker 1: for the rest of the season, is he an RB? 854 00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:32,800 Speaker 1: One and r B two flex or bench. We begin 855 00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:36,839 Speaker 1: with Matt Harrison. Um, Well, there's only three teams that 856 00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:39,760 Speaker 1: have run the ball with a running back fewer times 857 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:41,840 Speaker 1: this season than the Seahawks. And that's just kind of 858 00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:43,759 Speaker 1: wild to say out loud because they've been such a 859 00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:48,920 Speaker 1: run forward team for Pete Carroll's. Yeah, the Panthers, Ravens, 860 00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:51,600 Speaker 1: and Bills are the other teams that have run less 861 00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:54,400 Speaker 1: with their running backs. If you look at PPR points 862 00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:57,800 Speaker 1: per game as a whole, the Seahawks backfield, including Rashad 863 00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:00,359 Speaker 1: Penny this year, they ain't twenty four in the league 864 00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:03,480 Speaker 1: at fifteen point four PPR points per game. So as 865 00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:06,879 Speaker 1: a team, they're the lowest RB two in your league. Now, 866 00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:10,440 Speaker 1: I think Walker probably gets that, so that probably as 867 00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:13,920 Speaker 1: an individual vaults him up to the high RB two status. 868 00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:16,400 Speaker 1: So that's where I'm at. RB two, all right, r 869 00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:21,280 Speaker 1: B two for Kenneth Walker, Brian Kenneth Locker rest of season? 870 00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:23,239 Speaker 1: Is he going to be an RB one, RB two 871 00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:26,239 Speaker 1: flex or bench? Yeah, I'm with Matt, and I don't 872 00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:28,319 Speaker 1: have much to add. I'm going RB two. As he said, 873 00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:31,120 Speaker 1: Seattle doesn't run a ton. The Seattle Backs are average, 874 00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:34,120 Speaker 1: just averaging just seventeen carries per game as a whole, 875 00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:37,200 Speaker 1: their their bottom five and receiving. As Matt mentioned, I 876 00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:41,680 Speaker 1: think DJ Dallas will steal of the snaps in most 877 00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:44,240 Speaker 1: games for the Seahawks. But I will say that Walker 878 00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:46,240 Speaker 1: is an elite talent if you didn't know that already, 879 00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:49,959 Speaker 1: and comparing him to Javonte Williams, last year's top rooky 880 00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:52,640 Speaker 1: running back, and you know, everyone raving about his abilities 881 00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:55,600 Speaker 1: in the metrics of yards after contact per attempt and 882 00:46:55,680 --> 00:46:59,080 Speaker 1: breakaway percentage Kenne In college, Kenneth Walker ranked higher than 883 00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:03,960 Speaker 1: Javonte Williams one yards after contact in the FBS last year. 884 00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:06,600 Speaker 1: I'm close to RB one, but since that defense is 885 00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:08,879 Speaker 1: so bad, Seattle throws too much, so I'm more two. 886 00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:11,040 Speaker 1: Al Right, you guys, the correct answer is RB two. 887 00:47:11,160 --> 00:47:13,160 Speaker 1: You've hit on many of my my points, but I 888 00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:16,080 Speaker 1: want to add one more Like Rashad Penny, he doesn't 889 00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:20,280 Speaker 1: catch and he averaged he averaged ten receptions per season 890 00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:23,160 Speaker 1: across his time at Wake Forest in Michigan State, So 891 00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:24,880 Speaker 1: we don't believe he's going to be a part of 892 00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:26,839 Speaker 1: this passing game. And if he's gonna be like a 893 00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:30,440 Speaker 1: one catch per game guy, that really drops his floor 894 00:47:30,520 --> 00:47:33,120 Speaker 1: quite a bit because other backs who just even average 895 00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:36,719 Speaker 1: a modest like three catches for thirty yards, there's six 896 00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:39,040 Speaker 1: free points right there, you know, to beyond whatever he 897 00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:41,440 Speaker 1: gets running. And when you don't catch the ball, it 898 00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:44,319 Speaker 1: really does lower your floor. And that's why we've got 899 00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:47,879 Speaker 1: the RB two grade on Kenneth Walker. You both got 900 00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:52,719 Speaker 1: that correct. Tough question number two. Arizona wide receiver DeAndre 901 00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:57,080 Speaker 1: Hopkins returns next week. Are you selling high on Marquise 902 00:47:57,200 --> 00:48:02,839 Speaker 1: Brown or you standing? Pat? Bryan? I'm gonna hold Hollywood. 903 00:48:03,320 --> 00:48:06,840 Speaker 1: Hopkins is thirty years old, so likely passed his prime. 904 00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:09,520 Speaker 1: And uh, even though de hop will likely eating too 905 00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:12,400 Speaker 1: Brown's target share, he should probably allow for more single 906 00:48:12,440 --> 00:48:14,719 Speaker 1: coverage for Brown, who has been the focal point of 907 00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:17,680 Speaker 1: opposing defenses. But I still thrived for the Cardinals, who 908 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:21,080 Speaker 1: are top ten in team passing play percentage, they're gonna 909 00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:24,840 Speaker 1: throw it a ton. So I'm holding Hollywood, Matt for 910 00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:27,880 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins and his return. Are you selling high on 911 00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:31,160 Speaker 1: Marcus Brown who's performed well? Are you standing? Pat? So? 912 00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:33,319 Speaker 1: I started trying to think about Brown, and I was like, 913 00:48:33,400 --> 00:48:35,200 Speaker 1: they brought him in to be the deep threat that 914 00:48:35,239 --> 00:48:38,000 Speaker 1: the Cards didn't have, but his average depth of target 915 00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:41,040 Speaker 1: this year is nine point four. In comparison, A J. 916 00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:43,000 Speaker 1: Green is the only one higher on the team at 917 00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:46,920 Speaker 1: ten point seven. But the Cardinals had the following average 918 00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:50,439 Speaker 1: depth of targets Hopkins twelve point for A. J. Green 919 00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:54,240 Speaker 1: twelve point three, Christian Kirk eleven point three, Hantwin Wesley 920 00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:57,319 Speaker 1: ten point Oh. They have a new philosophy in town. 921 00:48:57,719 --> 00:49:00,560 Speaker 1: Shorter passes more yards after catch. If that's the case, 922 00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:03,719 Speaker 1: Hopkins probably opens the fields for Brown more than ever. 923 00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:06,400 Speaker 1: And if he's now a possession guy who'll have a 924 00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:08,520 Speaker 1: lot of those nine yard out routes that he can 925 00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:11,719 Speaker 1: win on. So I'm buying if anybody's selling, all right, 926 00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:14,319 Speaker 1: So we're standing pat on Markus Brown if we've got him, 927 00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:16,399 Speaker 1: And that is the correct answer for this one. I'm 928 00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:21,200 Speaker 1: with you guys on DeAndre Hopkins, who just looked noticeably 929 00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:24,680 Speaker 1: slower last year. His average game last season was a 930 00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:29,640 Speaker 1: very modest four catches for fifty seven yards for DeAndre Hopkins. 931 00:49:29,760 --> 00:49:31,799 Speaker 1: That's it. I mean, if if we had told you 932 00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:34,200 Speaker 1: that was Anton Wesley, you'd be like, all right, well 933 00:49:34,320 --> 00:49:36,880 Speaker 1: that makes about sense. You know, it's Hopkins is not 934 00:49:36,920 --> 00:49:39,719 Speaker 1: going to materially pull a lot of usage away from 935 00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:42,960 Speaker 1: somebody who's playing really, really well, way better than I 936 00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:45,560 Speaker 1: think we all hoped. And there's no reason to siphon 937 00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:49,560 Speaker 1: work away from one of the only things that's reliably 938 00:49:49,640 --> 00:49:53,680 Speaker 1: working in this Cardinals offense, Marky's Brown. They should not 939 00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:57,320 Speaker 1: change anything here. If anything, Hopkins will be additive to 940 00:49:57,440 --> 00:50:02,160 Speaker 1: the offense without tanking Brown. We're holding on Marquis Brown. 941 00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:09,960 Speaker 1: Tough question number three? Should you drop Jets wide receiver 942 00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:13,200 Speaker 1: Elijah more Matt You alluded to this question earlier. Now 943 00:50:13,200 --> 00:50:15,279 Speaker 1: it's your chance to answer. Yeah. I think you should 944 00:50:15,360 --> 00:50:17,680 Speaker 1: drop him because I don't think this offense can support 945 00:50:17,719 --> 00:50:21,160 Speaker 1: Breece Hall, Michael Carter, Garrett Wilson, Corey Davis, and Elijah Moore. 946 00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:24,080 Speaker 1: And I know nobody wants Corey Davis to be a thing, 947 00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:27,600 Speaker 1: but he is. The truth is, most of Elijah Moore's 948 00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:31,480 Speaker 1: best days came without Zack Wilson. Last year, four of 949 00:50:31,560 --> 00:50:35,120 Speaker 1: his five touchdown catches came with Mike White or Joe Flacco, 950 00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:38,840 Speaker 1: and since Wilson returned this year, in the Flacco games, 951 00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:41,719 Speaker 1: he averaged seven targets per game. Since Wilson came back, 952 00:50:41,719 --> 00:50:45,160 Speaker 1: he's averaging four targets per game. Maybe the Jets knew 953 00:50:45,160 --> 00:50:47,440 Speaker 1: that Zack and Elijah didn't have that chemistry when they 954 00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:51,200 Speaker 1: had drafted Garrett Wilson, but I think it's uh. I 955 00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:54,000 Speaker 1: think Elijah Moore is going to be riding the waiver 956 00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:56,640 Speaker 1: wire in most leagues pretty soon. All right, Brian, Should 957 00:50:56,680 --> 00:51:00,920 Speaker 1: we just drop outright Jets receiver Elijah More? Yeah? Not. 958 00:51:01,120 --> 00:51:03,000 Speaker 1: Not A lot of good has been happening for Elijah 959 00:51:03,040 --> 00:51:06,040 Speaker 1: More so far this year has seen more than five targets, 960 00:51:06,040 --> 00:51:08,040 Speaker 1: and just two of five games, He's yet to score 961 00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:10,719 Speaker 1: a touchdown in his season high and receiving yards is 962 00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:15,200 Speaker 1: fifty three. But I'm going to hold the Jets are 963 00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:18,320 Speaker 1: third and team passing play percentage at sixty five point 964 00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:20,759 Speaker 1: five per cent, and if something were to happen to 965 00:51:20,800 --> 00:51:24,160 Speaker 1: either Garrett Wilson or Corey Davis, Corey Davis seems to 966 00:51:24,200 --> 00:51:26,920 Speaker 1: get banged up quite a bit, More should see a 967 00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:30,640 Speaker 1: massive spike in targets. I know, you you gotta cut 968 00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:33,239 Speaker 1: ties at times, but the draft capital people sunk into 969 00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:37,680 Speaker 1: Elijah More is still a little too much trivia, definitely, 970 00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:40,880 Speaker 1: And so I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna hold a 971 00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:43,920 Speaker 1: little while longer and just hope things turn around. It's 972 00:51:43,920 --> 00:51:47,200 Speaker 1: easy to forget how great his December run was for 973 00:51:47,239 --> 00:51:49,680 Speaker 1: Elijah More. Everybody else got hurt and they targeted him 974 00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:53,799 Speaker 1: nine times per game in the month of December at 975 00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:56,800 Speaker 1: the end of last year. Now he's down to barely 976 00:51:56,840 --> 00:51:59,880 Speaker 1: over five targets per game, and that's the that's a 977 00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:02,520 Speaker 1: key part of the differential, and adding Garrett Wilson has 978 00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:04,520 Speaker 1: been a big part of that. And the fact that 979 00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:08,560 Speaker 1: I'm not holding Elijah We're hoping Corey Davis gets hurt. 980 00:52:08,960 --> 00:52:11,960 Speaker 1: That's not the hand and I'm not handcuffing Elijah More 981 00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:15,560 Speaker 1: to Corey Davis. Forget that More is too talented to 982 00:52:15,600 --> 00:52:18,400 Speaker 1: not have some good games the rest of the way. 983 00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:20,719 Speaker 1: But you're not gonna know when they're coming unless you 984 00:52:20,719 --> 00:52:23,040 Speaker 1: do get some kind of injury, which the trade of 985 00:52:23,120 --> 00:52:25,719 Speaker 1: waiver wire that. You know what, that's a pretty damn 986 00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:28,560 Speaker 1: good idea. That team needs offensive line helping. The worst 987 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:31,239 Speaker 1: way injuries they have had, we are going to drop 988 00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:33,000 Speaker 1: Elijah More and we're not gonna try to wait that 989 00:52:33,040 --> 00:52:36,560 Speaker 1: one out. Fine, I'll pick them up. Bills take on 990 00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:39,520 Speaker 1: the Chiefs. You may recall that these teams scored a 991 00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:42,560 Speaker 1: combined seventy eight points in one of the greatest playoff 992 00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:45,080 Speaker 1: games in the history of the league last year. So 993 00:52:45,160 --> 00:52:48,440 Speaker 1: there's a lot of obvious starters here, so this will 994 00:52:48,480 --> 00:52:50,920 Speaker 1: not match. It will not take very long. Josh at 995 00:52:50,920 --> 00:52:54,640 Speaker 1: bill side, Josh Allen, Stefan Diggs, Gabriel Davis obviously a's 996 00:52:54,640 --> 00:52:57,279 Speaker 1: and I'm not even gonna I'm not gonna elaborate on them. 997 00:52:57,400 --> 00:53:00,920 Speaker 1: Why not we got time? Maybe have time. I don't know, 998 00:53:01,520 --> 00:53:02,839 Speaker 1: we have time at the end of the show. I'll 999 00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:07,160 Speaker 1: elaborate on Josh Allen, Stefon, Diggs, and Gave Davis. Uh. 1000 00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:10,560 Speaker 1: But I'm putting on the bench Isaiah mackenzie and Khalier 1001 00:53:10,640 --> 00:53:13,360 Speaker 1: Shakir because they're both slack guys and they're both probably 1002 00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:15,680 Speaker 1: gonna play in this game. If it turns out McKenzie 1003 00:53:15,719 --> 00:53:19,160 Speaker 1: does not return, then I could I could see throwing 1004 00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:26,560 Speaker 1: a dart at Khalil Shakier. Hold on, hold on. That 1005 00:53:26,560 --> 00:53:30,720 Speaker 1: would be the time I've been hard pooling. They're absolutely right, um, 1006 00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:32,759 Speaker 1: because they're gonna split time from the slot. I don't 1007 00:53:32,760 --> 00:53:34,680 Speaker 1: think you want to start either one of them. Maybe 1008 00:53:34,680 --> 00:53:36,920 Speaker 1: one does okay here, but it's gonna be impossible to 1009 00:53:36,920 --> 00:53:39,759 Speaker 1: know which one. Unless somebody doesn't go Dawson Knox, even 1010 00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:41,960 Speaker 1: if he plays on the bad foot, I don't think 1011 00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:44,520 Speaker 1: it's a very promising matchup. Only one tight end his 1012 00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:47,759 Speaker 1: top thirty two yards against the Chiefs and none since 1013 00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:50,360 Speaker 1: week two. Knox put up a monster game against the 1014 00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:53,320 Speaker 1: Chiefs in October, but then in the rematch in the playoffs, 1015 00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:56,160 Speaker 1: he did absolutely nothing. I don't want Knox hasn't done 1016 00:53:56,239 --> 00:53:58,000 Speaker 1: much of anything here, and he's hobbled on the foot. 1017 00:53:58,040 --> 00:54:01,080 Speaker 1: He's out. Let's talk Devin Single to arry. This is 1018 00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:04,440 Speaker 1: a great opportunity for him. The Chiefs appeared daunting to 1019 00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:07,200 Speaker 1: running backs. They're giving up the sixth fewest rushing yards 1020 00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:10,040 Speaker 1: in the seventh lowest yards per carry. They've given up 1021 00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:12,520 Speaker 1: three touchdowns to the position over the last two weeks, 1022 00:54:12,760 --> 00:54:16,400 Speaker 1: and they seem vulnerable to pass catching backs, giving up 1023 00:54:16,440 --> 00:54:20,719 Speaker 1: the most receiving yards to the position. Meanwhile, Singletary has 1024 00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:23,080 Speaker 1: been effective through the air, with the sixth most receiving 1025 00:54:23,160 --> 00:54:25,520 Speaker 1: yards among all running backs, and he's one of six 1026 00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:29,160 Speaker 1: running backs with five or marked more targets in the 1027 00:54:29,280 --> 00:54:33,160 Speaker 1: red zone. So I like Singletary here with a B grade. 1028 00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:36,440 Speaker 1: Let's go to the Kansas Cityside where Mahomes and Travis 1029 00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:40,440 Speaker 1: Kelsey robbyous as Juju Smith Schuster. Guys, I've been subbornly 1030 00:54:40,480 --> 00:54:45,399 Speaker 1: optimistic that Patrick Mahomes second favorite target, will finally piece 1031 00:54:45,440 --> 00:54:47,239 Speaker 1: together a good game, and I keep giving him like 1032 00:54:47,320 --> 00:54:49,719 Speaker 1: C grades and like, don't bend him yet, don't ben 1033 00:54:49,840 --> 00:54:53,120 Speaker 1: him yet. I'm about out of patients. Here, one more 1034 00:54:53,160 --> 00:54:56,280 Speaker 1: C grade for jujuice my shoes, and then I'm done. 1035 00:54:56,800 --> 00:54:58,440 Speaker 1: That's it. This is it. This is the last time 1036 00:54:58,440 --> 00:55:00,960 Speaker 1: I've given him a C grade. He's secured at least 1037 00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:03,160 Speaker 1: seven targets in four or five games, and if he 1038 00:55:03,239 --> 00:55:06,239 Speaker 1: gets seven targets, you should get to at least a 1039 00:55:06,360 --> 00:55:10,240 Speaker 1: semi solid box score. Juja runs from all over the field, 1040 00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:12,880 Speaker 1: but most often from the slot. Real face Tarron Johnson, 1041 00:55:12,880 --> 00:55:14,839 Speaker 1: who is elite last year and he's still very good 1042 00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:16,960 Speaker 1: this year, giving up just thirty fourth score. You know what, 1043 00:55:16,960 --> 00:55:21,000 Speaker 1: don't put him on the bench. You see, that's it. 1044 00:55:21,080 --> 00:55:25,000 Speaker 1: He's below sea level. That's that's the sea level. He's 1045 00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:28,680 Speaker 1: below that sea level that you just heard that audio 1046 00:55:28,760 --> 00:55:31,800 Speaker 1: sea level. Clyde Edwards a layer just to see grade. 1047 00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:34,719 Speaker 1: The Bills boast the top defense against running backs in 1048 00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:37,560 Speaker 1: the NFL. Giving up just fifty five rushing yards per 1049 00:55:37,600 --> 00:55:41,680 Speaker 1: game and the fifth fewest receiving yards per game. No 1050 00:55:41,880 --> 00:55:45,880 Speaker 1: running back his top fourties seven rushing yards or thirty 1051 00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:48,719 Speaker 1: nine receiving yards against the bill, which is insane at 1052 00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:50,920 Speaker 1: this stage of the season. Now they have given up 1053 00:55:50,920 --> 00:55:53,719 Speaker 1: five touchdowns the position and Clyde Edwards a layers out 1054 00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:56,840 Speaker 1: of nowhere scoring touchdown. So maybe that happens here and 1055 00:55:56,840 --> 00:55:58,920 Speaker 1: it's the only reason I've even got the C grade 1056 00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:01,520 Speaker 1: on Clyde Edwards a layer. But I feel mostly like 1057 00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:05,120 Speaker 1: the other shoe is gonna drop on his season right here. 1058 00:56:06,239 --> 00:56:09,680 Speaker 1: Let's work in one matchup, one more matchup, Matt Cardinals 1059 00:56:09,760 --> 00:56:12,800 Speaker 1: taking on the Seahawks. You know Benjamin is gonna be 1060 00:56:12,840 --> 00:56:14,840 Speaker 1: your starting running back in this game, and he was already. 1061 00:56:14,840 --> 00:56:17,520 Speaker 1: You take a chance on me runner. I think that 1062 00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:19,799 Speaker 1: leaves us with the passing game for the Cardinals, well, 1063 00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:22,480 Speaker 1: or does it? Because I think the best runner in 1064 00:56:22,560 --> 00:56:26,600 Speaker 1: this game is gonna be Kyler Murray. Who I'm going 1065 00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:28,719 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give him an A grade here, and I'm 1066 00:56:28,719 --> 00:56:30,680 Speaker 1: gonna make a very bold call and call him my 1067 00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:34,480 Speaker 1: fantasy ard Vark this year. I think I used the 1068 00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:39,280 Speaker 1: Ardvark used the ard Vark. Kyler faces a Seattle defense 1069 00:56:39,320 --> 00:56:41,840 Speaker 1: that's allowed an average of tuner to sixty four yards 1070 00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:44,120 Speaker 1: per game, that's the ninth most, and one point six 1071 00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:47,960 Speaker 1: touchdown passes per game. And that includes playing Andy Dalton, 1072 00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:51,400 Speaker 1: Marcus Mariotta who barely throws the ball, and a half 1073 00:56:51,640 --> 00:56:54,840 Speaker 1: Trey Lance half Jimmy garoppolo game. By the way, Russell 1074 00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:57,880 Speaker 1: Wilson torched them for three forty in a score Jared 1075 00:56:57,920 --> 00:57:02,839 Speaker 1: Goff and four. Here's the sneakiest upside. He's gonna run 1076 00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:05,399 Speaker 1: like crazy with Eno Benjamin is the only other guy 1077 00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:08,839 Speaker 1: in the backfield. I think there's a scenario or Eno 1078 00:57:08,960 --> 00:57:13,160 Speaker 1: Benjamin looks good here, James Connors look bad, and I 1079 00:57:13,160 --> 00:57:17,040 Speaker 1: think he'd just beat out James Conner period. Rest of 1080 00:57:17,120 --> 00:57:19,760 Speaker 1: way could be as a scenario that cannot fold. Here 1081 00:57:20,080 --> 00:57:23,400 Speaker 1: it's worth mentioning. I think Kyante Ingram, who the Cardinals 1082 00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:26,040 Speaker 1: drafted in the sixth round, hasn't played a snap yet, 1083 00:57:26,080 --> 00:57:28,000 Speaker 1: but he should be active for this game. So if 1084 00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:32,720 Speaker 1: you're a deep league, deep league, deep league, Keane Ingrat 1085 00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:37,200 Speaker 1: no relation to Mark mark Ingram to or Evan Evan. 1086 00:57:37,440 --> 00:57:39,960 Speaker 1: So like fava beans and a nice bottle of Kyante 1087 00:57:40,560 --> 00:57:44,480 Speaker 1: Okay zach Ertz, he gets an A grade. Seattle has 1088 00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:47,440 Speaker 1: been roasted by tight ends this year. They've only faced 1089 00:57:47,640 --> 00:57:49,800 Speaker 1: two good ones. Kyle Pitts had his best day of 1090 00:57:49,800 --> 00:57:53,120 Speaker 1: the season against Seattle with five catches and eighty seven yards. 1091 00:57:53,560 --> 00:57:55,840 Speaker 1: Uh t J. Hockenson, of course had the eight for 1092 00:57:55,880 --> 00:57:58,480 Speaker 1: one seventy nine and two. By the way, Taysom Hill 1093 00:57:58,560 --> 00:58:01,640 Speaker 1: broke the Seahawks last week as a quote unquote tight end. 1094 00:58:01,880 --> 00:58:04,320 Speaker 1: Let's see if Earth's runs one in this week because 1095 00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:06,560 Speaker 1: they've given up a lot of tight end rushing scores. 1096 00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:09,120 Speaker 1: Pitts had like all of that production on the first 1097 00:58:09,240 --> 00:58:17,360 Speaker 1: dry My pants were off. Here we go and then yeah, 1098 00:58:17,760 --> 00:58:20,400 Speaker 1: Hollywood Brown, he gets a B grade. Here. Rondale Moore 1099 00:58:20,480 --> 00:58:22,840 Speaker 1: gets a seat more. Actually had a decent fantasy day 1100 00:58:22,920 --> 00:58:27,160 Speaker 1: last week. Eight targets, seven receptions, sixty eight yards. That's encouraging. 1101 00:58:27,200 --> 00:58:30,440 Speaker 1: And now this week, what will be his third game back, 1102 00:58:30,720 --> 00:58:33,160 Speaker 1: he man's the slot where he'll face the best matchup 1103 00:58:33,160 --> 00:58:37,120 Speaker 1: of the bunch against Kobe with a C. Bryant Brown 1104 00:58:37,280 --> 00:58:40,560 Speaker 1: has four straight weeks of double digit targets. He's top 1105 00:58:40,640 --> 00:58:43,760 Speaker 1: six receptions and sixty eight yards in each of those 1106 00:58:44,040 --> 00:58:47,040 Speaker 1: and he's scored in two straight. Seattle's defense against wide 1107 00:58:47,080 --> 00:58:50,320 Speaker 1: receivers looks awesome, but when you consider they've played the 1108 00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:53,680 Speaker 1: Lions without their top three wide receivers and the Saints 1109 00:58:53,720 --> 00:58:56,120 Speaker 1: with two of their top three wide receivers out, and 1110 00:58:56,120 --> 00:58:59,400 Speaker 1: then Olav got hurt in that game, it's not that scary. 1111 00:59:00,040 --> 00:59:02,240 Speaker 1: Gino Smith was might take a chance on the quarterback 1112 00:59:02,240 --> 00:59:04,760 Speaker 1: and deserves an A grade in this one. Noah Fant 1113 00:59:04,840 --> 00:59:07,320 Speaker 1: might take a chance on me. Tight end will dis Lee, 1114 00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:10,040 Speaker 1: by the way, startable with a very low Sea grade. 1115 00:59:10,160 --> 00:59:11,680 Speaker 1: I had to. I had to make him move on 1116 00:59:11,760 --> 00:59:13,480 Speaker 1: Disley in one league. I like to think of him 1117 00:59:13,520 --> 00:59:17,960 Speaker 1: as Scottish will display. I say it, you do the accents. 1118 00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:20,120 Speaker 1: Scott won't do the accents, but you do him. I 1119 00:59:20,480 --> 00:59:22,480 Speaker 1: like you, Brian. We need Boston Scott, and we do 1120 00:59:22,560 --> 00:59:26,240 Speaker 1: need Boston Scott. Have a yad uh, dk Metcalf and 1121 00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:30,800 Speaker 1: Tyler Lockett. Tyler Lockett's average game against Arizona over the 1122 00:59:30,880 --> 00:59:35,600 Speaker 1: last two years eight point to five catches, one twenty yards, 1123 00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:40,600 Speaker 1: one point five touchdowns. He's absolutely torched the Cardinals. He's 1124 00:59:40,600 --> 00:59:43,200 Speaker 1: also topped seventy five yards in four straight games and 1125 00:59:43,240 --> 00:59:46,640 Speaker 1: scored twice last week. Metcalf has scored or topped a 1126 00:59:46,720 --> 00:59:49,160 Speaker 1: hundred yards in three straight. His career numbers against the 1127 00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:52,120 Speaker 1: Cards aren't nearly as eye popping, though, but Metcalf lines 1128 00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:55,720 Speaker 1: up on the left side of his snaps, which means 1129 00:59:55,760 --> 00:59:59,160 Speaker 1: he'll line up against Cardinals right side corner Marco Wilson, 1130 00:59:59,400 --> 01:00:01,800 Speaker 1: who gave up seven catches for ninety two yards in 1131 01:00:01,840 --> 01:00:04,840 Speaker 1: his coverage just last week. I'm giving Metcalf and lock 1132 01:00:04,920 --> 01:00:08,040 Speaker 1: It both a grades in this one, and then finally 1133 01:00:08,120 --> 01:00:10,920 Speaker 1: Ken Walker the third. I want to give him a 1134 01:00:11,000 --> 01:00:14,200 Speaker 1: higher grade, but it's just to see here because nobody 1135 01:00:14,280 --> 01:00:16,440 Speaker 1: runs on the Cardinals at all. They don't try. They 1136 01:00:16,480 --> 01:00:18,880 Speaker 1: don't even try. They're tied with the Eagles for the 1137 01:00:18,920 --> 01:00:22,560 Speaker 1: fewest rushing attempts against them per game, an average of 1138 01:00:22,600 --> 01:00:25,920 Speaker 1: only seventeen point two. Now Walker should get in the 1139 01:00:25,960 --> 01:00:29,160 Speaker 1: neighborhood of fifteen touches here, with d J. Dallas mixing 1140 01:00:29,160 --> 01:00:32,600 Speaker 1: in a little bit. But Arizona's top seven in rush yards, 1141 01:00:32,840 --> 01:00:36,680 Speaker 1: rush touchdowns, and receptions allowed to opposing running back. So 1142 01:00:37,200 --> 01:00:39,120 Speaker 1: just a C grade for Walker. If he caught more, 1143 01:00:39,160 --> 01:00:40,840 Speaker 1: I would like him. I like him a little bit 1144 01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:42,600 Speaker 1: more here, but man, he's so explosive. I want to 1145 01:00:42,600 --> 01:00:44,840 Speaker 1: think he's gonna get another long run like Kenneth Walker 1146 01:00:44,880 --> 01:00:48,040 Speaker 1: did last week. They'll fill out that Fox score. I'd 1147 01:00:48,040 --> 01:00:49,760 Speaker 1: give him more of a bee, but it's it's just 1148 01:00:50,400 --> 01:00:52,160 Speaker 1: I just don't think the touches are gonna be there. 1149 01:00:52,680 --> 01:00:54,480 Speaker 1: You may end up being right about that. A team 1150 01:00:54,520 --> 01:00:56,400 Speaker 1: that doesn't run the ball against a team against a 1151 01:00:56,440 --> 01:00:58,840 Speaker 1: team that doesn't see any runs, So that could end 1152 01:00:58,920 --> 01:01:02,400 Speaker 1: up being an issue when we come back, Baltimore Ravens 1153 01:01:02,480 --> 01:01:05,400 Speaker 1: taking on the New York Giants. No Riss shot Babe 1154 01:01:05,440 --> 01:01:09,160 Speaker 1: in in this game. Does that make Lamar Jackson a 1155 01:01:09,280 --> 01:01:13,000 Speaker 1: sure thing or not?

Probably by now you 1159 01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:48,960 Speaker 1: haven't figured it out if you've been listening to the 1160 01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:52,360 Speaker 1: show at all. Some something something pandemonium blah blah blah. 1161 01:01:52,360 --> 01:01:55,840 Speaker 1: There's usually pandemonium showing at some point, and it's when 1162 01:01:55,840 --> 01:01:58,600 Speaker 1: you're the lowest scoring team, well hopefully not you. When 1163 01:01:58,680 --> 01:02:01,080 Speaker 1: somebody else is the lowest ring team of that of 1164 01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:03,440 Speaker 1: the week, their team gets cut and all their players 1165 01:02:03,480 --> 01:02:06,240 Speaker 1: go to the waiver wire and then then the pandemonium. 1166 01:02:06,320 --> 01:02:09,960 Speaker 1: Then it's pandemonium the waiver wires an entire roster players 1167 01:02:09,960 --> 01:02:13,120 Speaker 1: are now available forbidding. You get to have a blast 1168 01:02:13,120 --> 01:02:15,600 Speaker 1: bidding on players you could never normally get and building 1169 01:02:15,600 --> 01:02:19,520 Speaker 1: a superstar roster. All you have to do is not finished. Last. 1170 01:02:19,600 --> 01:02:23,040 Speaker 1: I kind of feel like Guilloteen leagues should have a 1171 01:02:23,120 --> 01:02:27,919 Speaker 1: you know, a mascot and it should be a panda Pandamonium. Yeah, 1172 01:02:28,200 --> 01:02:33,040 Speaker 1: would the pana be named mononium mona be a female? Yeah, 1173 01:02:33,120 --> 01:02:35,240 Speaker 1: you guys could should have a little pandas you know 1174 01:02:35,320 --> 01:02:38,320 Speaker 1: on the site. So it turns out with a little 1175 01:02:38,360 --> 01:02:42,960 Speaker 1: panda trivia for you. One, they're all like addicts. So 1176 01:02:43,040 --> 01:02:45,240 Speaker 1: what do the pandas eat the bamboo shoots? You're all 1177 01:02:45,280 --> 01:02:48,360 Speaker 1: like pam bamboo. No, wait, that's the Koala hang out. 1178 01:02:48,440 --> 01:02:51,960 Speaker 1: Never mind that Kala is the addicts that they're addicted 1179 01:02:52,000 --> 01:02:57,280 Speaker 1: to some something. Koalas all have an std. I got 1180 01:02:57,360 --> 01:03:02,600 Speaker 1: kualas and pandas mixed up. Pandas do food. The mood 1181 01:03:02,680 --> 01:03:05,440 Speaker 1: is tense. Baltimore takes on the New York Giants. No 1182 01:03:05,520 --> 01:03:08,400 Speaker 1: Ward shot Bateman in this game, and for a team 1183 01:03:08,440 --> 01:03:10,600 Speaker 1: that doesn't allow the depth of wide receiver. How does 1184 01:03:10,640 --> 01:03:14,600 Speaker 1: that impact Lamar Jackson. Yeah, I'm pretty bummed Bateman is 1185 01:03:14,600 --> 01:03:17,080 Speaker 1: going to miss this game with the foot injury, second 1186 01:03:17,120 --> 01:03:18,680 Speaker 1: game in a row. He was set up for a 1187 01:03:18,880 --> 01:03:24,520 Speaker 1: massive spike game. The Giants selected Cadarius Tony seven picks 1188 01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:28,240 Speaker 1: before Bateman. Doesn't look good right now draft, But sadly 1189 01:03:28,320 --> 01:03:30,720 Speaker 1: Bateman will missing out on this one. Like you said, so, 1190 01:03:30,960 --> 01:03:34,080 Speaker 1: I'm still going to give Lamar Jackson an a though. Um, 1191 01:03:35,080 --> 01:03:37,280 Speaker 1: it's really because of the rushing. The Giants actually have 1192 01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:40,000 Speaker 1: a pretty good past defense. New York is allowing just 1193 01:03:40,200 --> 01:03:44,160 Speaker 1: eight team completions per game and five point six yards 1194 01:03:44,240 --> 01:03:47,520 Speaker 1: per dropback on deep passes. Those are passes of twenty 1195 01:03:48,160 --> 01:03:50,640 Speaker 1: plus yards. Both of those are the best mark in 1196 01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:54,240 Speaker 1: the league, uh for from the Giants perspective, but they 1197 01:03:54,280 --> 01:03:57,680 Speaker 1: haven't faced a dual threat like l Jacks yet. Um. Sorry, 1198 01:03:57,760 --> 01:04:00,800 Speaker 1: Justin Fields you don't fall into that category. Justin Fields 1199 01:04:00,800 --> 01:04:03,160 Speaker 1: did have like fifty seven rushing yards though, so that's 1200 01:04:03,160 --> 01:04:06,600 Speaker 1: probably a safe rushing floor for Jackson. But as we mentioned, 1201 01:04:06,640 --> 01:04:08,400 Speaker 1: he will be missing Rashad Bateman, but he won't be 1202 01:04:08,480 --> 01:04:12,080 Speaker 1: missing Mark Andrews. He gets an a. Andrew's the only 1203 01:04:12,160 --> 01:04:15,280 Speaker 1: tight end with a target share north of thirty, which 1204 01:04:15,320 --> 01:04:19,200 Speaker 1: is incredibly high for any player at any position target chair. 1205 01:04:19,680 --> 01:04:22,360 Speaker 1: The Giants just allowed seven catches, forty five yards and 1206 01:04:22,440 --> 01:04:24,840 Speaker 1: a touchdown to the Packers tight ends last week, so 1207 01:04:25,400 --> 01:04:28,640 Speaker 1: easy a for Andrews and over to the wide receivers again, 1208 01:04:28,880 --> 01:04:30,800 Speaker 1: Rashad Bateman out of this game. Get him out of 1209 01:04:30,840 --> 01:04:34,520 Speaker 1: your lineup. I'll give Devin Duvernet. I really hadn't pegged 1210 01:04:34,560 --> 01:04:37,080 Speaker 1: for a see whether Bateman played or not, because again, 1211 01:04:37,160 --> 01:04:40,080 Speaker 1: it's not a great matchup for the passing game. The 1212 01:04:40,200 --> 01:04:44,160 Speaker 1: Giants um are allowing just eleven catches on thirty four 1213 01:04:44,280 --> 01:04:47,120 Speaker 1: yards and zero point six touchdowns per game to wide 1214 01:04:47,160 --> 01:04:49,800 Speaker 1: receivers as a whole. Those are not great numbers, but 1215 01:04:50,040 --> 01:04:52,479 Speaker 1: Duvernet has played really well. He has gained twenty plus 1216 01:04:52,600 --> 01:04:55,880 Speaker 1: yards on more than twenty percent of his catches this year. 1217 01:04:55,920 --> 01:04:59,440 Speaker 1: That's side for fifth best among qualified wide receivers. New 1218 01:04:59,520 --> 01:05:02,520 Speaker 1: York has a loud twenty plus yards on eighteen percent 1219 01:05:03,040 --> 01:05:05,960 Speaker 1: of opponents receptions, though, that's fifth words in the NFL. 1220 01:05:06,080 --> 01:05:08,280 Speaker 1: So I will will give duven A to c And 1221 01:05:08,320 --> 01:05:10,840 Speaker 1: I guess you gotta I don't know we're looking at 1222 01:05:10,920 --> 01:05:15,640 Speaker 1: James Prochet and Marcus Robinson. Now yeah, I'm not going there, 1223 01:05:16,320 --> 01:05:20,439 Speaker 1: Frenchman in Baltimore. They're both on the bench z bench 1224 01:05:20,680 --> 01:05:23,560 Speaker 1: and uh. But j K Dobbins is not can give 1225 01:05:23,640 --> 01:05:26,480 Speaker 1: him a BE only eight carries last week, but Kenyan 1226 01:05:26,520 --> 01:05:29,840 Speaker 1: Drake and Mike Davis combined for just five, So Dombins 1227 01:05:30,040 --> 01:05:32,919 Speaker 1: Dobbins is the clear lead back in his workload should 1228 01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:35,120 Speaker 1: increase week over week by the way. He had seventeen 1229 01:05:35,160 --> 01:05:38,080 Speaker 1: touches in Week four against Buffalo, so last week was 1230 01:05:38,160 --> 01:05:41,120 Speaker 1: kind of an outlier. The Ravens should get left tackle 1231 01:05:41,240 --> 01:05:44,680 Speaker 1: Ronnie Stanley back, which is huge, but Giants defensive tackle 1232 01:05:44,760 --> 01:05:47,560 Speaker 1: Leonard Williams is also huge, like quite literally, and he 1233 01:05:47,600 --> 01:05:51,400 Speaker 1: should be making his return after missing. After missing the 1234 01:05:51,520 --> 01:05:53,800 Speaker 1: last three weeks, New York has allowed just one rushing 1235 01:05:53,840 --> 01:05:56,720 Speaker 1: touchdown this season, tight for fewest in the NFL. So 1236 01:05:56,920 --> 01:06:00,600 Speaker 1: that's why just a B for Dobbins over to the ironside. 1237 01:06:00,960 --> 01:06:03,680 Speaker 1: S Kwon Barkley does not get a BE. He gets 1238 01:06:03,720 --> 01:06:05,400 Speaker 1: an A And I think you should just fire up 1239 01:06:05,440 --> 01:06:07,840 Speaker 1: that peacock for me one more time. Charge my my, 1240 01:06:08,560 --> 01:06:11,800 Speaker 1: my peacock off of sa Kwan Barkley is r said 1241 01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:13,720 Speaker 1: he'd be the highest scoring running back and pretty good. 1242 01:06:13,760 --> 01:06:15,840 Speaker 1: And by the way, I said Dallas Goddard top four 1243 01:06:15,960 --> 01:06:18,000 Speaker 1: wide receiver, tight end, I was a good call to 1244 01:06:18,200 --> 01:06:20,880 Speaker 1: that's working out top three, said Kyle Pitts in my 1245 01:06:20,960 --> 01:06:23,280 Speaker 1: top three. But he'll get there. Can we talk about 1246 01:06:23,320 --> 01:06:25,360 Speaker 1: Kyle Pitts for one quick second? He started off really 1247 01:06:25,400 --> 01:06:28,360 Speaker 1: slow last year, just as he has this year. Just finished. 1248 01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:31,200 Speaker 1: You could just accept the fact I was a little 1249 01:06:31,280 --> 01:06:35,560 Speaker 1: rushed during the Pitts No, No, not yet so far 1250 01:06:35,680 --> 01:06:38,080 Speaker 1: I was wrong. This is gonna be your Clyde Edwards 1251 01:06:38,120 --> 01:06:41,040 Speaker 1: A lair no or my Monty ball. Should we go 1252 01:06:41,120 --> 01:06:45,040 Speaker 1: back ball? Who is? Who is the Chargers running back 1253 01:06:45,280 --> 01:06:50,280 Speaker 1: Ryan Matthews the Dark Days? Anyway, back to Barkley, the 1254 01:06:50,400 --> 01:06:53,000 Speaker 1: Ravens are without nose tackle Michael Pierce and and they 1255 01:06:53,400 --> 01:06:56,600 Speaker 1: will also be without linebacker Justin Houston. And as I 1256 01:06:56,640 --> 01:06:59,840 Speaker 1: mentioned earlier, safety Marcus Williams is on I R. Baltimore 1257 01:06:59,880 --> 01:07:02,280 Speaker 1: is a out thirty two broken tackles this season. That's 1258 01:07:02,360 --> 01:07:05,000 Speaker 1: the most in the NFL. The Ravens have also allowed 1259 01:07:05,040 --> 01:07:07,800 Speaker 1: the fourth most receiving yards in the second most receptions 1260 01:07:07,840 --> 01:07:10,880 Speaker 1: to running back, so another smash spot for se Kwan 1261 01:07:10,960 --> 01:07:13,600 Speaker 1: here he gets an a. Darius Slayton was might take 1262 01:07:13,640 --> 01:07:15,560 Speaker 1: a chance on the wide receiver. I like the matchup 1263 01:07:15,640 --> 01:07:17,640 Speaker 1: for him as well, but I have to bench the 1264 01:07:17,680 --> 01:07:20,440 Speaker 1: rest of the wide receivers, including my boy, Richard James 1265 01:07:20,880 --> 01:07:24,320 Speaker 1: and Marcus Johnson and Davis Sills, Jan Dale Robinson and 1266 01:07:24,680 --> 01:07:27,720 Speaker 1: I'm already forgetting kid. You're making up some of these names. 1267 01:07:27,760 --> 01:07:29,440 Speaker 1: I'm pretty I feel like it, but I was, Sadly 1268 01:07:29,440 --> 01:07:31,840 Speaker 1: I'm not. They're expected to miss this game, so we're 1269 01:07:31,880 --> 01:07:34,240 Speaker 1: looking at Richie James, Marcus Johnson, and David Sills. They're 1270 01:07:34,280 --> 01:07:37,680 Speaker 1: on the bench as is Daniel Bellinger does have two 1271 01:07:37,760 --> 01:07:40,680 Speaker 1: touchdowns on the season, one rushing and one receiving, but 1272 01:07:40,800 --> 01:07:43,600 Speaker 1: the volume isn't there for Bellinger. He has seen more 1273 01:07:43,640 --> 01:07:46,320 Speaker 1: than three targets in just one game, and Baltimore is 1274 01:07:46,320 --> 01:07:48,480 Speaker 1: allowing less than forty yards per game to the tight 1275 01:07:48,600 --> 01:07:51,360 Speaker 1: end position. And lastly, Daniel Jones charges to take a 1276 01:07:51,440 --> 01:07:53,320 Speaker 1: chance of me running back. I like that call. I 1277 01:07:53,360 --> 01:07:57,680 Speaker 1: believe he has the most designed running plays among all quarterbacks. 1278 01:07:58,720 --> 01:08:01,240 Speaker 1: It's true. Ryan Dables a genius. I love the way 1279 01:08:01,320 --> 01:08:04,919 Speaker 1: that they that he has implemented. Daniel Jones and because 1280 01:08:04,960 --> 01:08:06,200 Speaker 1: this is one of the things that he can do 1281 01:08:06,320 --> 01:08:07,920 Speaker 1: to break down to defense. He's not gonna he's not 1282 01:08:07,960 --> 01:08:10,840 Speaker 1: gonna pass his way to to David Sills to a 1283 01:08:10,920 --> 01:08:13,360 Speaker 1: bunch of victories, but he can break down a defense 1284 01:08:13,440 --> 01:08:15,200 Speaker 1: with the running. It's one of those few coaches who 1285 01:08:15,240 --> 01:08:17,559 Speaker 1: actually takes what he has and does like the things 1286 01:08:17,640 --> 01:08:20,519 Speaker 1: to make them successful. You've it's shocking. You wouldn't think 1287 01:08:20,520 --> 01:08:23,920 Speaker 1: it'd be so hard. Cowboys take on the Eagles. I 1288 01:08:24,040 --> 01:08:27,439 Speaker 1: only have one starting grade on the entire Cowboys team, 1289 01:08:27,760 --> 01:08:30,360 Speaker 1: and that is Ceedee Lamb. Ceedee Lamb is the only 1290 01:08:30,439 --> 01:08:33,679 Speaker 1: receiver with at least eight targets in every game this season, 1291 01:08:33,880 --> 01:08:36,679 Speaker 1: by the way, on pace to lead the NFL and targets, 1292 01:08:36,720 --> 01:08:38,920 Speaker 1: I believe, which was one of our topics in the 1293 01:08:38,960 --> 01:08:40,960 Speaker 1: preseason about who's going to lead the NFL can't be 1294 01:08:41,040 --> 01:08:44,120 Speaker 1: ahead of Cooper Cup. I think he's in the close 1295 01:08:44,520 --> 01:08:47,360 Speaker 1: eight targets in every game this season. But again, you're right, 1296 01:08:47,360 --> 01:08:51,439 Speaker 1: because Cooper cups on page paid. But against Phillies elite 1297 01:08:51,439 --> 01:08:55,599 Speaker 1: secondary volume does not always equate to productivity. Nine players 1298 01:08:56,120 --> 01:08:59,679 Speaker 1: have seen at least eight targets against the Eagles this season. 1299 01:09:00,400 --> 01:09:03,200 Speaker 1: Four of them got held to catch rates below. In 1300 01:09:03,360 --> 01:09:07,240 Speaker 1: Lamb's last four against Philly, He's never clipped. Four receptions, 1301 01:09:07,320 --> 01:09:09,879 Speaker 1: he's averaging just fifty yards and a quarter of one touchdown. 1302 01:09:10,040 --> 01:09:12,120 Speaker 1: That's it. This team shuts him down to a fair amount. 1303 01:09:12,160 --> 01:09:15,600 Speaker 1: And outside cornerbacks Darius Slay and James Bradberry combined for 1304 01:09:15,720 --> 01:09:18,519 Speaker 1: eight interceptions and pass breakups and just one touchdown aloud. 1305 01:09:18,560 --> 01:09:20,880 Speaker 1: So it is tough sledding for Seedee Lamb. In fact, 1306 01:09:20,920 --> 01:09:23,000 Speaker 1: I moved him down to a sea grade. Uh, it's 1307 01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:25,479 Speaker 1: definitely worth noting. On Friday he popped on the injury 1308 01:09:25,520 --> 01:09:27,360 Speaker 1: report too with a hip issue. So you want to 1309 01:09:27,520 --> 01:09:30,920 Speaker 1: watch before we might want to grab Noah Brown and 1310 01:09:31,000 --> 01:09:32,920 Speaker 1: Michael Gallup if you can, because this is even that. 1311 01:09:33,040 --> 01:09:35,800 Speaker 1: I don't think this is the right matchup. It's better 1312 01:09:35,840 --> 01:09:38,320 Speaker 1: than a benched Ceedee Lamb all of a sudden that 1313 01:09:38,680 --> 01:09:41,400 Speaker 1: is a Sunday night game. Have a backup plan, have 1314 01:09:41,520 --> 01:09:43,599 Speaker 1: a backup that's a great that's a great point. Um 1315 01:09:44,160 --> 01:09:46,000 Speaker 1: cool and by the way, put Ceedee Lamb in your 1316 01:09:46,200 --> 01:09:49,120 Speaker 1: flex position if possible, so they can make a last 1317 01:09:49,200 --> 01:09:51,120 Speaker 1: minute move to a running back or a tight end 1318 01:09:51,160 --> 01:09:54,200 Speaker 1: if you have to. Uh, Cooper Rush is gonna get 1319 01:09:54,200 --> 01:09:57,599 Speaker 1: his first ever loss in this game, opponent passers are 1320 01:09:57,640 --> 01:10:01,160 Speaker 1: averaging just two fourteen yards per game, Eagles are top seven, 1321 01:10:01,240 --> 01:10:03,920 Speaker 1: and both coverage and pass rushed by Pro Football Focus. 1322 01:10:04,400 --> 01:10:07,920 Speaker 1: Rush has not been producing much stats anyway. But I 1323 01:10:08,120 --> 01:10:10,760 Speaker 1: particularly don't like him here and for Michael Gallup all 1324 01:10:10,800 --> 01:10:12,680 Speaker 1: the same reasons that I don't like Ceedee Lamb. I 1325 01:10:12,720 --> 01:10:15,960 Speaker 1: don't like Michael Gallup Slay Bradberry so and he's not 1326 01:10:16,160 --> 01:10:18,600 Speaker 1: nearly as good, so he's on the bench. Shut. Let 1327 01:10:18,640 --> 01:10:21,960 Speaker 1: me ask you something. If Cooper Rush does win this game, 1328 01:10:22,240 --> 01:10:24,439 Speaker 1: and Dak Prescott is ready next week, and you know 1329 01:10:24,560 --> 01:10:28,240 Speaker 1: they got after that, They've got I believe, Lions and Bears, 1330 01:10:29,720 --> 01:10:33,000 Speaker 1: so Cooper Rush. But but if Cooper Rush is at 1331 01:10:33,040 --> 01:10:36,040 Speaker 1: that point six and oh in his career, yeah, and 1332 01:10:36,240 --> 01:10:38,800 Speaker 1: and and now and now Dallas is leading the NFC 1333 01:10:39,000 --> 01:10:41,800 Speaker 1: East over the Eagles and the number one seed, do 1334 01:10:41,960 --> 01:10:44,560 Speaker 1: they throw Dak Prescott back in or do they just 1335 01:10:44,680 --> 01:10:47,559 Speaker 1: go he's not quite healthy? Pretty sure they would anyway. 1336 01:10:47,720 --> 01:10:50,439 Speaker 1: Cooper Rush hasn't won any games. He's just been the 1337 01:10:50,520 --> 01:10:53,760 Speaker 1: quarterback in games of the other Cowboys have won. For 1338 01:10:53,880 --> 01:10:58,519 Speaker 1: he's the quarterback jour. Absolutely. Let's talk about Dalton Sheltz briefly, 1339 01:10:58,600 --> 01:11:00,160 Speaker 1: one of these weeks he's finally gonna be held. Then 1340 01:11:00,160 --> 01:11:01,679 Speaker 1: you have to contribute, but I'm not going to guess 1341 01:11:01,720 --> 01:11:04,400 Speaker 1: that it's this one. And plus, this is not a 1342 01:11:04,560 --> 01:11:07,719 Speaker 1: very good matchup either against a very good team averaging 1343 01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:09,800 Speaker 1: just thirty nine yards per game to the position. So 1344 01:11:09,920 --> 01:11:12,360 Speaker 1: Dalton Sheltz remains on the bench. Sadly, that was a 1345 01:11:12,439 --> 01:11:14,400 Speaker 1: huge miss by most of us, but we didn't know 1346 01:11:14,400 --> 01:11:17,439 Speaker 1: he'd get hurt, So yeah, that part's hurt. All right. 1347 01:11:17,520 --> 01:11:19,479 Speaker 1: Let's talk about Pollard and Zeke. It's been a disaster 1348 01:11:19,600 --> 01:11:21,479 Speaker 1: for both of these guys. Basically, let's start with Pollard, 1349 01:11:21,479 --> 01:11:23,439 Speaker 1: who I almost gave every one point I had to 1350 01:11:23,479 --> 01:11:24,960 Speaker 1: c grade on him, but then I couldn't do it. 1351 01:11:25,360 --> 01:11:27,720 Speaker 1: The last two weeks he had that fifty seven yard 1352 01:11:27,840 --> 01:11:31,320 Speaker 1: touchdown run, but other than that, he's turned sixteen touches 1353 01:11:31,360 --> 01:11:37,120 Speaker 1: into thirty seven yards. That's just it is below sea level. 1354 01:11:37,360 --> 01:11:39,560 Speaker 1: Here's the sea level right there. He doesn't get the 1355 01:11:39,600 --> 01:11:42,599 Speaker 1: ball enough to really feel like you can put him 1356 01:11:42,600 --> 01:11:46,840 Speaker 1: into your your lineup in Philadelphia was struggling against the 1357 01:11:46,880 --> 01:11:49,200 Speaker 1: run early on, but over the last four games they've 1358 01:11:49,240 --> 01:11:51,439 Speaker 1: only allowed four runs of ten yards or more, and 1359 01:11:51,479 --> 01:11:53,479 Speaker 1: they have yet to allow running back to reach even 1360 01:11:53,600 --> 01:11:57,920 Speaker 1: sixty yards over the last four games. So I can't 1361 01:11:57,960 --> 01:12:00,400 Speaker 1: start Pollard and I can't start Zeke, who like even 1362 01:12:00,520 --> 01:12:04,240 Speaker 1: less here um the Eagles are particularly good at home 1363 01:12:04,600 --> 01:12:07,840 Speaker 1: as a run defense, and it would take massive volume 1364 01:12:07,880 --> 01:12:09,800 Speaker 1: for Zeke to produce the kind of success he's had 1365 01:12:09,800 --> 01:12:12,360 Speaker 1: in the past against the Eagles, and now he's splitting 1366 01:12:12,360 --> 01:12:14,879 Speaker 1: carries the Pollard. So we're just gonna find better matchups 1367 01:12:14,920 --> 01:12:19,280 Speaker 1: for those guys. Eagle side of major importance. It looks 1368 01:12:19,360 --> 01:12:24,360 Speaker 1: like all three of the injured Eagles linemen Maliotta, Kelsey, 1369 01:12:24,479 --> 01:12:28,000 Speaker 1: and Dickerson are all gonna return for this game. That's 1370 01:12:28,200 --> 01:12:31,080 Speaker 1: huge for this offense. And that's why I've got B 1371 01:12:31,240 --> 01:12:34,040 Speaker 1: grades on most of the players here. In fact, I 1372 01:12:34,120 --> 01:12:35,800 Speaker 1: got all the players you care about. They all have 1373 01:12:35,920 --> 01:12:40,559 Speaker 1: B grades. The Philadelphia Beagles. Oh, I get Philadelphia Beagles. 1374 01:12:40,560 --> 01:12:43,160 Speaker 1: If I don't have I don't have a Beagle side. 1375 01:12:43,680 --> 01:12:46,240 Speaker 1: If I had a dog, I would I would play it. 1376 01:12:46,280 --> 01:12:48,640 Speaker 1: I don't have a dog here. Dallas is generating an 1377 01:12:48,680 --> 01:12:53,880 Speaker 1: astounding one twenty six quarterback pressures so far. That's amazing 1378 01:12:54,280 --> 01:12:56,920 Speaker 1: in five games. That pressure is a large part of 1379 01:12:56,960 --> 01:13:00,080 Speaker 1: why no opposing quarterback is topped one touchdown pass and 1380 01:13:00,160 --> 01:13:03,200 Speaker 1: only one has topped the meager milestone of two twelve 1381 01:13:03,240 --> 01:13:06,040 Speaker 1: passing yards. Hurts. His mobility is certainly gonna help. But 1382 01:13:06,120 --> 01:13:09,400 Speaker 1: sometimes that mobility means you just run into a sack 1383 01:13:09,840 --> 01:13:12,280 Speaker 1: and other times and maybe it means they'll scramble down field. 1384 01:13:12,280 --> 01:13:15,240 Speaker 1: And let's hope so for Justin her Justin Jalen Hurts. 1385 01:13:15,920 --> 01:13:18,920 Speaker 1: Only the only mobile quarterback they've faced that Dallas has 1386 01:13:18,960 --> 01:13:21,280 Speaker 1: faced so far, Daniel Jones ran for seventy nine yards, 1387 01:13:21,320 --> 01:13:24,599 Speaker 1: so I like that opportunity. Hurts face Dallas one time 1388 01:13:24,680 --> 01:13:27,720 Speaker 1: last year he threw for three six yards, So maybe 1389 01:13:27,800 --> 01:13:31,280 Speaker 1: that's a sign that is receivers will be better than hoped. Here, 1390 01:13:31,600 --> 01:13:34,280 Speaker 1: I love the receiver's individual matchups, and let's talk about 1391 01:13:34,320 --> 01:13:38,240 Speaker 1: him now. A J. Brown B grade they've allowed the 1392 01:13:38,439 --> 01:13:40,920 Speaker 1: Dallas has allowed the second fewest air yards and the 1393 01:13:41,080 --> 01:13:45,040 Speaker 1: fourth highest Pro Football Focus coverage grade UM and that 1394 01:13:45,160 --> 01:13:48,839 Speaker 1: part is not great. But renowned Boomer Bust cornerback Trayvon 1395 01:13:48,920 --> 01:13:51,559 Speaker 1: Diggs is allowing the third most yards in his coverage. 1396 01:13:51,840 --> 01:13:54,440 Speaker 1: And here comes a J. Brown. I like this opportunity 1397 01:13:54,520 --> 01:13:58,600 Speaker 1: here and his one on one matchup Treyvon Diggs is 1398 01:13:58,680 --> 01:14:01,320 Speaker 1: the league's sixth most getted corners, so I think they're 1399 01:14:01,320 --> 01:14:03,200 Speaker 1: Ball's good are gonna come A J. Brown's way in 1400 01:14:03,240 --> 01:14:05,160 Speaker 1: this game, so I've got it. Still gotta be grade 1401 01:14:05,200 --> 01:14:08,280 Speaker 1: on him and then Davanta Smith. Hill most often see 1402 01:14:08,280 --> 01:14:11,679 Speaker 1: the other starting outside cornerback, Anthony Brown, who is allowing 1403 01:14:11,840 --> 01:14:15,240 Speaker 1: six receptions per game. That is a lot by cornerback standards. 1404 01:14:15,720 --> 01:14:18,439 Speaker 1: Last year, Brown allowed the fourth most yards in his coverage. 1405 01:14:18,479 --> 01:14:20,800 Speaker 1: This year, Brown's giving up the ninth most yards in 1406 01:14:20,880 --> 01:14:23,720 Speaker 1: his coverage. So these individual matchups for the receivers are 1407 01:14:23,760 --> 01:14:26,200 Speaker 1: really really positive, and that's why I've got a B 1408 01:14:26,320 --> 01:14:29,840 Speaker 1: grade on both Devanta Smith and again on A J. Brown. 1409 01:14:30,240 --> 01:14:34,840 Speaker 1: How about Dallas Goddard coming off a season best game. 1410 01:14:34,920 --> 01:14:38,560 Speaker 1: He has now recorded sixty plus receiving yards or a 1411 01:14:38,680 --> 01:14:42,000 Speaker 1: touchdown in every game, but in his two games against 1412 01:14:42,040 --> 01:14:45,120 Speaker 1: Dallas last year, Goddard had just five catches for hundred 1413 01:14:45,160 --> 01:14:48,120 Speaker 1: four total yards. In the two games. This year's Cowboys 1414 01:14:48,200 --> 01:14:50,720 Speaker 1: have not allowed a tight end touchdown, so it's a 1415 01:14:50,720 --> 01:14:53,120 Speaker 1: tricky matchup, but Goddard's been too good and in the 1416 01:14:53,200 --> 01:14:55,880 Speaker 1: tight end waste land. A B grade for Dallas Goddard 1417 01:14:56,040 --> 01:15:00,400 Speaker 1: among all players. Dallas Goddard second in your after the 1418 01:15:00,479 --> 01:15:04,479 Speaker 1: catch behind a crazy fantastic for him. Last player I 1419 01:15:04,479 --> 01:15:07,360 Speaker 1: want to talk about, Smiles Sanders. He's eclipse fifteen carries 1420 01:15:07,400 --> 01:15:10,840 Speaker 1: in four consecutive games. He's been given five carries from 1421 01:15:10,880 --> 01:15:13,439 Speaker 1: inside the five yard mine, so he's got a little 1422 01:15:13,439 --> 01:15:17,200 Speaker 1: more touchdown upside than people think. After a disastrous Week one, 1423 01:15:17,439 --> 01:15:20,280 Speaker 1: the Dallas defense has rounded into form against running backs, 1424 01:15:20,320 --> 01:15:22,720 Speaker 1: giving up just four point two yards per carry and 1425 01:15:22,800 --> 01:15:25,840 Speaker 1: a single rushing score in that time. Sanders is a 1426 01:15:25,880 --> 01:15:28,200 Speaker 1: capable receiver, but then I'll throw to him enough. I'd 1427 01:15:28,200 --> 01:15:30,439 Speaker 1: like to think that's could change here, but it hasn't 1428 01:15:30,479 --> 01:15:33,360 Speaker 1: so far. He's averaging just two targets per game. Will 1429 01:15:33,400 --> 01:15:37,720 Speaker 1: give a B grade two Miles Sanders as well. When 1430 01:15:37,760 --> 01:15:41,599 Speaker 1: we come back, it's time for version two point oh 1431 01:15:42,080 --> 01:15:49,960 Speaker 1: of the Privature Speculations. Listen to that brand new, shiny 1432 01:15:50,080 --> 01:15:54,400 Speaker 1: time machine. We'll get back to the premature speculation when 1433 01:15:54,439 --> 01:16:18,200 Speaker 1: we return to Fantasy Football Weekly. Welcome back, final segment 1434 01:16:18,280 --> 01:16:21,920 Speaker 1: of Fantasy Football Weekly.

This is a 1438 01:16:31,479 --> 01:16:40,240 Speaker 1: segment we like to call premature speculation, a grand Let's 1439 01:16:42,000 --> 01:16:45,200 Speaker 1: It's definitely not the quantum leap time machine, totally different, 1440 01:16:45,400 --> 01:16:49,839 Speaker 1: totally separate from that for sure. For copyright trademarking reasons. 1441 01:16:49,960 --> 01:16:52,200 Speaker 1: Are we going ahead in time or back in time? 1442 01:16:52,320 --> 01:16:54,960 Speaker 1: We're going we are going ahead in time because we 1443 01:16:55,040 --> 01:16:57,760 Speaker 1: are giving you the players that people are going to 1444 01:16:57,920 --> 01:17:01,160 Speaker 1: want to have next week, that you're already gonna have 1445 01:17:01,439 --> 01:17:04,439 Speaker 1: because we went in the time machine this week. Who 1446 01:17:04,520 --> 01:17:06,519 Speaker 1: to go part? Are we messing with the space time 1447 01:17:06,560 --> 01:17:10,320 Speaker 1: continuum at all? Here? Hell? Yeah, man, And we begin 1448 01:17:10,400 --> 01:17:13,439 Speaker 1: with you, Matt, who is your premature speculation player? Well, 1449 01:17:13,439 --> 01:17:16,680 Speaker 1: I got Donnie Peeps Jones. Uh. He hasn't put up 1450 01:17:16,720 --> 01:17:19,519 Speaker 1: a huge Fantasy Day in a while, but he has 1451 01:17:19,560 --> 01:17:23,679 Speaker 1: seen seven and nine targets in the last two weeks plus. 1452 01:17:23,840 --> 01:17:27,080 Speaker 1: Next week he faces off against Baltimore, the worst wide 1453 01:17:27,120 --> 01:17:30,320 Speaker 1: receiver defense in the league. If you're already looking ahead 1454 01:17:30,400 --> 01:17:33,840 Speaker 1: to some bye week fill ins, week seven he has 1455 01:17:33,920 --> 01:17:37,439 Speaker 1: Baltimore and week ten he has Miami, both our bottom 1456 01:17:37,560 --> 01:17:41,679 Speaker 1: five defenses against wide receivers. Both of those weeks four 1457 01:17:41,760 --> 01:17:44,200 Speaker 1: teams are on buy, so Donovan People's jones will be 1458 01:17:44,240 --> 01:17:46,040 Speaker 1: a good fill in for a few weeks, maybe a 1459 01:17:46,160 --> 01:17:49,080 Speaker 1: take a chance if you can probably those weeks. Brian, 1460 01:17:49,160 --> 01:17:53,400 Speaker 1: who is your premature speculation player. I think Fish might 1461 01:17:53,479 --> 01:17:56,439 Speaker 1: have mentioned or brought this player up a few weeks ago. 1462 01:17:56,520 --> 01:17:58,200 Speaker 1: He did it a little early, but I like the call. 1463 01:17:58,320 --> 01:18:02,000 Speaker 1: It's Rams wide receiver Van Jefferson, who will be back 1464 01:18:02,080 --> 01:18:04,479 Speaker 1: this week, but his return should be imminent and as 1465 01:18:04,520 --> 01:18:08,400 Speaker 1: we all know, Allen Robinson not getting it done. I 1466 01:18:08,560 --> 01:18:11,720 Speaker 1: deserve an anti peacock for that one. Was We've we've 1467 01:18:11,800 --> 01:18:13,280 Speaker 1: got that in here. Would you like to hear it? 1468 01:18:13,520 --> 01:18:17,840 Speaker 1: What is it? This is the sound of a crow 1469 01:18:18,160 --> 01:18:22,920 Speaker 1: eating what was the mongoose? Was the mongoose the anti peacock? 1470 01:18:23,000 --> 01:18:25,519 Speaker 1: I don't remember. Uh yeah, I think the mongoose might 1471 01:18:25,560 --> 01:18:29,280 Speaker 1: have been because the mongoose is the natural predator for 1472 01:18:29,720 --> 01:18:33,519 Speaker 1: the for the peacocks. So yeah, there's that too. Canned 1473 01:18:33,880 --> 01:18:40,479 Speaker 1: as one last way, because I was I was not 1474 01:18:40,680 --> 01:18:47,479 Speaker 1: exactly right. That was Van Jefferson. He was stilling Allen Robinson. 1475 01:18:47,479 --> 01:18:52,960 Speaker 1: Allen Robinson, Ben of Van Jefferson are not the answer. 1476 01:18:53,439 --> 01:18:56,040 Speaker 1: On the other side of the Cooper Cups all over 1477 01:18:56,080 --> 01:18:57,560 Speaker 1: the place again the other side of the field, but 1478 01:18:58,040 --> 01:19:00,439 Speaker 1: they only have Cooper Cup at wide receiver. But Van 1479 01:19:00,560 --> 01:19:03,879 Speaker 1: Jefferson was a second round pick in had six touchdowns 1480 01:19:03,960 --> 01:19:06,519 Speaker 1: last year as a wide receiver, three for l A. 1481 01:19:06,600 --> 01:19:08,400 Speaker 1: When he comes back, he's got a slide in his 1482 01:19:08,720 --> 01:19:12,320 Speaker 1: wide receiver to uh. You know, the Rams offensive line 1483 01:19:12,360 --> 01:19:14,600 Speaker 1: is a mess, but they're usually playing from behind, so 1484 01:19:15,160 --> 01:19:17,639 Speaker 1: Van Jefferson will be Fantasy Via will go grab him 1485 01:19:17,720 --> 01:19:21,559 Speaker 1: right now, especially if you're lamenting your Allen Robinson picks 1486 01:19:21,840 --> 01:19:25,560 Speaker 1: as I am. I can't quit Gus Edwards can't. I 1487 01:19:25,560 --> 01:19:27,679 Speaker 1: don't want to. I don't want to quit Gus Edwards. 1488 01:19:27,960 --> 01:19:32,200 Speaker 1: On Friday, John Harbos said Edwards was very close to returning. 1489 01:19:33,040 --> 01:19:35,639 Speaker 1: Let's go pick up Gus Edwards and when it happens, 1490 01:19:36,400 --> 01:19:39,600 Speaker 1: we'll finally see the Dobbins Edwards one two punch that 1491 01:19:39,680 --> 01:19:43,080 Speaker 1: I was so excited about last preseason that I was like, Oh, 1492 01:19:43,200 --> 01:19:45,840 Speaker 1: these guys are gonna be like this amazing one. Drafted 1493 01:19:46,000 --> 01:19:47,400 Speaker 1: both in a bunch of leagues, and of course they 1494 01:19:47,479 --> 01:19:50,120 Speaker 1: both went out with the A. C. L Anyway reminder 1495 01:19:50,200 --> 01:19:54,280 Speaker 1: at Edwards. In his three seasons, he has averaged five 1496 01:19:54,320 --> 01:19:56,640 Speaker 1: point two yards per carry. Five point three yards per 1497 01:19:56,680 --> 01:19:59,800 Speaker 1: carry and five yards per carry. That is nuts. That 1498 01:20:00,080 --> 01:20:04,080 Speaker 1: is great production from Gus Edwards in his last healthy season. 1499 01:20:04,120 --> 01:20:06,679 Speaker 1: The year before last, he led the team in rushes 1500 01:20:06,840 --> 01:20:11,080 Speaker 1: from inside the five yard line. Gus Edwards, by the way, dude, 1501 01:20:11,080 --> 01:20:13,040 Speaker 1: absolutely RiPP Did you see the picture of him this week? 1502 01:20:13,640 --> 01:20:17,720 Speaker 1: Oh man? I tweeted it that was did you take 1503 01:20:17,760 --> 01:20:22,400 Speaker 1: it in his house? Worst case, Gus Edwards will be 1504 01:20:22,479 --> 01:20:26,000 Speaker 1: a factor worst case after the Ravens week ten by, 1505 01:20:26,200 --> 01:20:28,160 Speaker 1: but it sounds like he's gonna be back before that. 1506 01:20:28,320 --> 01:20:29,920 Speaker 1: And even if that is the worst case, you still 1507 01:20:29,920 --> 01:20:32,439 Speaker 1: get seven games if you go to the championship out 1508 01:20:32,479 --> 01:20:34,519 Speaker 1: of Gus Edwards. I think he could be back in 1509 01:20:34,560 --> 01:20:36,120 Speaker 1: a week or two and you'll want to be a 1510 01:20:36,200 --> 01:20:37,759 Speaker 1: part of that one too. All Right, If this doesn't 1511 01:20:37,800 --> 01:20:40,519 Speaker 1: pan out, you can never mention Gus Edwards ever again. 1512 01:20:40,640 --> 01:20:45,280 Speaker 1: I know that I appreciate that I can't make that promise, 1513 01:20:45,360 --> 01:20:47,200 Speaker 1: But fine, you can lay down that edicto. We'll get 1514 01:20:47,240 --> 01:20:49,080 Speaker 1: his pictures all you want, but just keep it yourself. 1515 01:20:49,120 --> 01:20:52,160 Speaker 1: The final matchup of the show Broncos taking on the Chargers. 1516 01:20:53,240 --> 01:20:55,719 Speaker 1: Our uncle's like Matt Boone, We're gonna watch the status 1517 01:20:55,760 --> 01:20:57,120 Speaker 1: of his foot injury, but I think he's going to 1518 01:20:57,200 --> 01:21:01,280 Speaker 1: be available in this game. What else do you like? Uh, Man, 1519 01:21:01,680 --> 01:21:06,680 Speaker 1: it's I don't like that much dangerous. I'm not the 1520 01:21:06,760 --> 01:21:09,200 Speaker 1: first one to make this joke, but Mr Unlimited was 1521 01:21:09,280 --> 01:21:11,519 Speaker 1: limited in practice most of the week with a partially 1522 01:21:11,600 --> 01:21:15,800 Speaker 1: torn lat He had a platelet rich plasma injection to 1523 01:21:15,880 --> 01:21:19,479 Speaker 1: help the shoulder heel up. Plate lit rich plasma sounds 1524 01:21:19,640 --> 01:21:24,840 Speaker 1: really delicious, doesn't it. Despite all that he's been a 1525 01:21:24,920 --> 01:21:28,120 Speaker 1: super mediocre player. That's Russell Wilson. He also lost his 1526 01:21:28,160 --> 01:21:32,519 Speaker 1: starting left tackle, Garrett Bowls, to a broken leg last week. 1527 01:21:33,000 --> 01:21:35,360 Speaker 1: By the way, as of this Friday, the Broncos had 1528 01:21:35,560 --> 01:21:38,920 Speaker 1: twenty six players on the injury report, including twelve on 1529 01:21:39,080 --> 01:21:42,800 Speaker 1: I R, and Wilson wasn't one of them. Uh. The 1530 01:21:42,920 --> 01:21:45,800 Speaker 1: Chargers are beatable through the air, allowing two fifty three 1531 01:21:45,840 --> 01:21:48,639 Speaker 1: and two per game to oppose in quarterbacks. But I'm 1532 01:21:48,640 --> 01:21:51,040 Speaker 1: not going to tell anyone to start Russell Wilson with 1533 01:21:51,160 --> 01:21:54,080 Speaker 1: the clouds surrounding him with the injury. I just won't 1534 01:21:54,120 --> 01:21:56,920 Speaker 1: start him right now. Courtland Sutton has been all right. 1535 01:21:57,000 --> 01:21:59,519 Speaker 1: I'll give him a C grade. Sutton, his top seventy 1536 01:21:59,600 --> 01:22:02,800 Speaker 1: yards were scored in all five games this year. Judy 1537 01:22:02,920 --> 01:22:05,280 Speaker 1: is scored twice, which is good, but been held under 1538 01:22:05,320 --> 01:22:08,960 Speaker 1: fifty five yards in four of five games is not good. 1539 01:22:09,080 --> 01:22:12,200 Speaker 1: That's not good. I don't trust the quarterback either in 1540 01:22:12,640 --> 01:22:15,080 Speaker 1: even in a decent matchup, So I'm leaving Judy on 1541 01:22:15,200 --> 01:22:19,920 Speaker 1: the bench. The Broncos runners, Uh. Speaking of the injury report, 1542 01:22:20,439 --> 01:22:23,000 Speaker 1: both Melvin Gordon and Mike Boone were on it. Gordon 1543 01:22:23,160 --> 01:22:26,000 Speaker 1: nursing neck and rib injuries, Boon limited with a foot 1544 01:22:26,040 --> 01:22:30,120 Speaker 1: injury charge. Likes boon is. Just take a chance on me, runner. Uh. 1545 01:22:30,400 --> 01:22:32,559 Speaker 1: Keep an eye on both as we get through Saturday 1546 01:22:32,640 --> 01:22:34,840 Speaker 1: and into Sunday, because they're the Monday night game and 1547 01:22:34,880 --> 01:22:38,000 Speaker 1: they have Saturday practice. If Gordon's active, I'll give him 1548 01:22:38,040 --> 01:22:41,360 Speaker 1: a B. He's got the Chargers revenge angle, plus l 1549 01:22:41,439 --> 01:22:43,559 Speaker 1: A has the worst run defense in the league. They're 1550 01:22:43,600 --> 01:22:47,280 Speaker 1: giving up six point two yards per carry. The way through, 1551 01:22:47,320 --> 01:22:49,560 Speaker 1: the Chargers will be on the ground. If Gordon is 1552 01:22:49,800 --> 01:22:53,479 Speaker 1: inactive for some reason, Boone probably vaults up to a 1553 01:22:53,600 --> 01:22:56,759 Speaker 1: B grade. And if Boone is inactive for some reason, 1554 01:22:57,040 --> 01:23:01,080 Speaker 1: Lettavius Murray becomes a pivot play. Either way, you're starting Gordon, 1555 01:23:01,479 --> 01:23:02,960 Speaker 1: make sure it's in your flex if you have a 1556 01:23:03,040 --> 01:23:07,920 Speaker 1: backup and um Lottavius Murray sneaky pickup to just put 1557 01:23:08,000 --> 01:23:09,800 Speaker 1: on the bottom of your roster if you're going to, 1558 01:23:11,080 --> 01:23:13,519 Speaker 1: you know, dance around with Melvin Gordon, Michael Boone or 1559 01:23:13,640 --> 01:23:16,439 Speaker 1: Keenan Allen. In this game, either Boone or Gordon gets 1560 01:23:16,479 --> 01:23:19,800 Speaker 1: a surprise deactivation that could put Murray in line for 1561 01:23:20,720 --> 01:23:25,000 Speaker 1: ten touches against a terrible chat sixty yards right there, 1562 01:23:26,200 --> 01:23:28,960 Speaker 1: all right, Austin Ekeler on the other side in nine 1563 01:23:29,760 --> 01:23:33,160 Speaker 1: another quick thing. I mean, if you've got Keenan Allen 1564 01:23:33,320 --> 01:23:36,800 Speaker 1: and we're waiting on his game time decision Calltavius Murray 1565 01:23:36,840 --> 01:23:39,000 Speaker 1: could be your pivot guy in the flack. That's what 1566 01:23:39,120 --> 01:23:44,120 Speaker 1: I just said. Thank you. Austin Ekeler. Uh nine career 1567 01:23:44,240 --> 01:23:47,160 Speaker 1: games against the Broncos. Ekeler has some good but never 1568 01:23:47,280 --> 01:23:50,200 Speaker 1: great days. We're looking at a ton of fifteen ish 1569 01:23:50,720 --> 01:23:53,559 Speaker 1: point PPR efforts, which won't kill you, but don't expect 1570 01:23:54,000 --> 01:23:56,599 Speaker 1: what he did last week. Out of this week, Denver 1571 01:23:56,720 --> 01:23:59,920 Speaker 1: has seen the sixth fewest running back touches on the 1572 01:24:00,040 --> 01:24:02,720 Speaker 1: season this year, at around twenty three per game. Those 1573 01:24:02,720 --> 01:24:06,120 Speaker 1: should all almost go to Eckler. So I'm thinking like 1574 01:24:06,200 --> 01:24:08,559 Speaker 1: a hundred total yards and a coin flip shot at 1575 01:24:08,560 --> 01:24:11,840 Speaker 1: a touchdown. That's definitely be worthy for Austin Ekeler in 1576 01:24:11,920 --> 01:24:19,200 Speaker 1: this one. Justin air Bear, on the other hand, he's 1577 01:24:19,240 --> 01:24:22,080 Speaker 1: playing a pretty legit defense this year. The high water 1578 01:24:22,200 --> 01:24:24,960 Speaker 1: mark for yardage against the Broncos this season is Matt 1579 01:24:25,080 --> 01:24:28,760 Speaker 1: Ryan's two one last week, and that was a horrible game. 1580 01:24:28,840 --> 01:24:30,840 Speaker 1: And that was the best passer who went against the 1581 01:24:30,880 --> 01:24:34,720 Speaker 1: Broncos this year. Uh. They did lose Ronald Darby to 1582 01:24:34,840 --> 01:24:37,719 Speaker 1: an a c L injury last week, and they're replacing 1583 01:24:37,800 --> 01:24:41,840 Speaker 1: him with Damari Mathis and a host of other Denver 1584 01:24:42,040 --> 01:24:45,639 Speaker 1: defensive starters are also nursing injuries. So I'll give air 1585 01:24:45,720 --> 01:24:48,960 Speaker 1: Bear a B. He's better than what the full strength 1586 01:24:49,040 --> 01:24:52,639 Speaker 1: Broncos have faced, and right now they're far from full strength. 1587 01:24:53,200 --> 01:24:56,759 Speaker 1: Keenan Allen has been present at practice, so there's hope 1588 01:24:56,840 --> 01:24:59,080 Speaker 1: that he plays this week. I've been present in this 1589 01:24:59,160 --> 01:25:01,400 Speaker 1: show and I didn't let to you that's true. Um, 1590 01:25:02,640 --> 01:25:04,719 Speaker 1: if he does go, I'll give him a C grade. 1591 01:25:04,840 --> 01:25:07,639 Speaker 1: Mike Williams gets a bad Josh Palmer gets a see 1592 01:25:08,040 --> 01:25:11,000 Speaker 1: it like a little bit better see if Alan doesn't go. 1593 01:25:12,080 --> 01:25:15,240 Speaker 1: But if Alan is, yeah, so anyway top corner. Patrick 1594 01:25:15,360 --> 01:25:18,680 Speaker 1: certain usually doesn't shadow, but this might be the week 1595 01:25:18,800 --> 01:25:20,839 Speaker 1: that he does, and he might go after Mike Williams. 1596 01:25:20,960 --> 01:25:24,160 Speaker 1: That might be problematic. I would imagine the Chargers try 1597 01:25:24,240 --> 01:25:27,759 Speaker 1: to scheme waste for him to get to Mathis side 1598 01:25:28,080 --> 01:25:32,559 Speaker 1: and get that open look. Finally, Gerald Everett and Donald Parham, 1599 01:25:32,800 --> 01:25:35,679 Speaker 1: they're both on the bench in this one. Parham returned 1600 01:25:35,760 --> 01:25:38,160 Speaker 1: last week and it cut into Everett snaps a little bit, 1601 01:25:38,600 --> 01:25:41,519 Speaker 1: but the targets dried up to only three for Gerald 1602 01:25:41,560 --> 01:25:46,719 Speaker 1: Everett last week and Tray here McKitty Kitty is also involved. 1603 01:25:46,800 --> 01:25:49,320 Speaker 1: It's suddenly a three headed monster in the tight end room, 1604 01:25:49,680 --> 01:25:51,639 Speaker 1: and I'll pass on all of them. I don't blame 1605 01:25:51,680 --> 01:25:54,639 Speaker 1: you going back to the tight end waste land real 1606 01:25:54,720 --> 01:25:58,639 Speaker 1: quick if you're in it. They look at Greg blic 1607 01:25:59,320 --> 01:26:02,080 Speaker 1: with the rookie it in for the Broncos, who was 1608 01:26:02,120 --> 01:26:04,840 Speaker 1: getting some steam in the preseason, went on I R. 1609 01:26:04,960 --> 01:26:06,880 Speaker 1: But he's coming off. He's gonna be activated this week 1610 01:26:06,920 --> 01:26:11,760 Speaker 1: in albert o'quebu noam, go out of me. My pronunciation 1611 01:26:11,800 --> 01:26:15,439 Speaker 1: skills kind of been disappointing. So Greg Dulchich, if you're 1612 01:26:15,439 --> 01:26:22,120 Speaker 1: desperate for whatever duration, Damien Harris is out, what kind 1613 01:26:22,160 --> 01:26:24,560 Speaker 1: of outlook do you have for Remandre Stevenson? Is he 1614 01:26:24,640 --> 01:26:29,000 Speaker 1: a top ten, top five running back? In those games? 1615 01:26:29,400 --> 01:26:31,200 Speaker 1: I'll put him in the in the top ten range. 1616 01:26:31,280 --> 01:26:33,280 Speaker 1: New England's kind of a run first team. They got 1617 01:26:33,320 --> 01:26:36,200 Speaker 1: a good defense. They wanna, you know, definitely bleed, bleeve 1618 01:26:36,280 --> 01:26:38,040 Speaker 1: the clock as much as possible. And for those who 1619 01:26:38,040 --> 01:26:42,799 Speaker 1: don't recall Stevenson and he transferred to Oklahoma, was a standout. 1620 01:26:42,920 --> 01:26:45,880 Speaker 1: And then he got popped for marijuana and as he 1621 01:26:46,000 --> 01:26:49,000 Speaker 1: had to serve a six games suspension going into so 1622 01:26:49,080 --> 01:26:51,559 Speaker 1: he slipped into the fourth round of draft. You probably 1623 01:26:51,640 --> 01:26:53,599 Speaker 1: in the first round pick if not for the stupid 1624 01:26:53,680 --> 01:26:55,920 Speaker 1: Marijuanna suspension. But no one should get suspended for that 1625 01:26:56,000 --> 01:26:59,360 Speaker 1: in my opinion. So top ten running back as long 1626 01:26:59,400 --> 01:27:01,320 Speaker 1: as Harris is out, and even with Harrison, I think 1627 01:27:01,360 --> 01:27:03,840 Speaker 1: he's in the top twenty.
