1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:13,159 Speaker 1: Wow, what is up? Welcome to another edition of the 2 00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:16,200 Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Football Podcast. It's made your main MG marks 3 00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:19,040 Speaker 1: Grand alongside the Fantasy Hall of Famer Michael Fabiano and 4 00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:23,639 Speaker 1: have the Fantasy viper Graham Barfield. Um, I feel like 5 00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:27,360 Speaker 1: fall has sort of shown up here has ange. Although 6 00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:29,560 Speaker 1: it's supposed to get warm again, it is, which is weird, 7 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 1: Like l A, whether it's like it starts to feel 8 00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:34,839 Speaker 1: seasonal and then suddenly it gets warm again. Yeah, it's 9 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:37,280 Speaker 1: super super nice out this morning. It's it's like a 10 00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 1: nice cool, crisp breeze in the air, falls in the air. 11 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,560 Speaker 1: It's nice. I mean. The thing about living in l 12 00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:44,960 Speaker 1: A for those of you who haven't necessarily been here 13 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 1: or spent a lot of time here this time of year, 14 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 1: it's it's hard to dress because you have to really 15 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 1: dress in layers because in the morning there will be 16 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 1: like a slight chill in there. Like I'm not gonna 17 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 1: compare it to like other places that get actual cold, 18 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 1: but there will be a chill. See, maybe have like 19 00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 1: a jacket or whatever. And then in the middle of 20 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 1: the day it gets hot, so then you're down just 21 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 1: like a T shirt. And then as the day goes along, 22 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 1: you know, especially when you get near the coast, like 23 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:08,039 Speaker 1: the fog comes in, uh, the wind picks up, and 24 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:09,319 Speaker 1: so then by the end of the night you need 25 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:12,759 Speaker 1: an actual jacket again. So it's it's kind of weird. Um. Yeah, 26 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 1: you can kind of have like three different outfits. It's 27 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 1: it's nice if you'd like changing clothes. Yeah, exactly, it's 28 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,319 Speaker 1: it's great. And we also get to deal with the 29 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:22,480 Speaker 1: cold of the studio as well, So it makes it 30 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,080 Speaker 1: hard to dress for work that right, exactly, because like 31 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,040 Speaker 1: it's even when it's a little bit cool out, then 32 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 1: you get into the studio and it's like are they 33 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 1: hanging meeting here? Like why is it so cold? That's always, 34 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,760 Speaker 1: that's a whole different always it's wild. Um. So we 35 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:37,679 Speaker 1: have a plan to talk about as we break down 36 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: what was week nine. Of course, there's still the Monday 37 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 1: night game to come. Oh yeah, it's it's it's Fabs 38 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 1: versus Eddie, Eddie. We can't be friends today, Cowboys versus Giants. 39 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 1: I fear that game because so yesterday the whole day 40 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 1: and I did it the last couple of weeks, you know, 41 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 1: I watched the games and I'm thinking how the hell 42 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 1: did the Cowboys lost to the Jets. How did we 43 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 1: lose to the Jets? How the hell did we lose 44 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 1: to the Jets? And I'm hoping that we're not cursed 45 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,559 Speaker 1: at that stadium this year, because you know, I would 46 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: hate to lose to the Jets and the Giants in 47 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,519 Speaker 1: the same season at MetLife. You're gonna find out. I 48 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,799 Speaker 1: was definitely hoping that Chef would'll be playing give the 49 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 1: whole crew to Daniel Jones. But look, I'm not gonna 50 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 1: be greedy, like I don't need to win. Let me 51 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: just let's just you know what I need. I don't 52 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 1: want Danie Jones embarrassed on national television like Elisman embarrassed 53 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 1: way too often these past few seasons. Let's everyone stay healthy, 54 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:27,640 Speaker 1: you know, and I'll be fine. I need a lot 55 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 1: of Evan Ingram and that's about it. As long as 56 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: Eddie gets a few se Kwon Barkley highlights, a couple 57 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: of nice highlights, keep them healthy. Dana Jones, no, agree, 58 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: Just turnover as a couple touchdown passes like it's a 59 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 1: competitive game. Like that's fine, It's all I asked. I'm 60 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 1: just trying to figure out, how how did we lose 61 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 1: to that team. That is that's horrible, like ever since 62 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: they beat us, and and if you remember, that game 63 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: wasn't like necessarily a blowout, but I mean you were 64 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 1: fairly in fairly good control. I mean like I mean, 65 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: there was never a point that game where I'm thinking, 66 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,239 Speaker 1: all right, we got this. Well, it was the Jets 67 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: that was the game that got hurt. I don't care. 68 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 1: I don't care if our offensive line had some injuries 69 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:10,239 Speaker 1: in that game. I don't care. From where airs the 70 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:14,359 Speaker 1: freaking Jets. They just got embarrassed by the Dolphins, who 71 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: were the worst team in the league before which Jets 72 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: lost to them, which, by the way, that game, at 73 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: no point yesterday was the Jets, by the ways, are 74 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: going to get back in this We screwed up. Okay, 75 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: we forgot that. Ryan Fitzpatrick had another revenge game, and 76 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,919 Speaker 1: it's like the Fitzpatrick revenge game tour this season all 77 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 1: there are and eventually he's got the Bengals, which I 78 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 1: think is later in the season. It might be Week sixteen, 79 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: I can't remember, But like the Ryan Fitzpatrick revenge tour 80 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 1: just keeps on rolling. He had a very solid game 81 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 1: against I believe it was the Bills, and then he 82 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: had a very solid game against the Jets yesterday. Now 83 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 1: they've got the Colts coming up. That's not a revenge game, 84 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 1: but still, like Ryan Fitzpatrick is back on the fantasy radar, 85 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: he is, it's a it's wild there. So at first 86 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 1: you just heard from our faith ducer seenor Edward L. 87 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 1: Murphy esquire. So I should be interesting tonight the Cowboys 88 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 1: versus Giants. You know, well we'll see you know that. 89 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: You know that still has some fantasy impact with guys 90 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 1: like Dak and a Mari and Zeke and and say 91 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: Kwan and uh Evan Ingram and that sort of stuff. 92 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 1: So it's at least worth watching if nothing else, for 93 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,119 Speaker 1: for that, even if you don't have necessarily any rooting 94 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,040 Speaker 1: interest in it. So there we go. That's all out 95 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:35,160 Speaker 1: of the way, So let's do some news. First bit 96 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 1: of news coming out of Indianapolis. Jacoby Brissette ended up 97 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 1: leaving yesterday's game early after what looked like both an 98 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: ankle and a knee injury. I mean, on the exact 99 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: same play. He got his footstepped on and sort of 100 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: turned his ankle a little bit, and then his offensive 101 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: lineman fell and rolled into his knee. That's looking out 102 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: for the remainder of the game now. Frank Reich says, 103 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: it looks like a sprain. He is being classified right now, 104 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: is being weak. It's a week so you're gonna have 105 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 1: to keep an eye on that going forward. In the meantime, 106 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 1: Brian Hoyer stepped in through three touchdown and passed it. 107 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,720 Speaker 1: Didn't have a ton of yards, but move the ball efficiently, 108 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 1: especially considering he was coming in cold. You know, as 109 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: a is a surprise opportunity here. So I mean, I 110 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,159 Speaker 1: know we'll get to to waiver wire guys a little 111 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 1: bit later, FABS, but I mean, Brian Hoyer's gotta at 112 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 1: least be on the radar right now. Dude. They got 113 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,559 Speaker 1: the Dolphins next week, Yeah he is. I mean, remember guys, 114 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: were this is This is by mcgeddon. Okay, you got 115 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 1: the Broncos, the Texas, the Jaguars, the Patriots, Eagles, the 116 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 1: Redskins all off at least three pretty good fantasy quarterbacks 117 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: out of those six teams. Okay, Brandon Allen heat I 118 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: want to beat then. I want to watch him and 119 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 1: see exactly beat the Browns. I almost feel bad for 120 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: like the Bronze fans like the mis and stuff like that, 121 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,280 Speaker 1: because he was so excited for Super Bowl they were 122 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: gonna contend against the Patriots and that team is trash. 123 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 1: Freddie Kitchens is not going to be employed very much 124 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 1: longer there. Maybe if he makes it through the rest 125 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 1: of the season, we'll see, but that's gonna be about 126 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,480 Speaker 1: it regardless. Back to the Hoyer point, Dude, pick him 127 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 1: up two QB super flex leagues. I'm desperate. Maybe you 128 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 1: have Deshaun Watson and Carson Wentz on your team. I 129 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: don't know, like that's very possible. Um, he's he there 130 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 1: are There are a handful of quarterbacks this week that 131 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,039 Speaker 1: you can pick up and play, or who maybe on 132 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 1: your bench that you could play this week. Uh that 133 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:17,919 Speaker 1: you might have to do that. I'm gonna talk about 134 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 1: that on the TV side on Tuesday. But Hoyer is 135 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 1: one of them. Ryan Tannehill is one of them, right, 136 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick's one of them. All of a sudden, we're 137 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 1: looking at these guys who weren't drafted. They've been backups 138 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 1: to start the season, and now they're going to be 139 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: potential starters. Daniel Jones is one of them. Jimmy g 140 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 1: is one of them. We got we got bipocalypse coming, 141 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: by the way. By the way, if you're Aaron Andrews 142 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: husband Jared Stole, what what what did you think of 143 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,720 Speaker 1: Garoppolo calling your woman baby? You know what? If you're 144 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 1: Jared Stole, I think you're you're not all that. A 145 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 1: little a little weird little that's a little, a little 146 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: little weird on National TV. I mean, it wasn't Joe 147 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: Namath to Suzie Colbert creepy a little. It was a 148 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,600 Speaker 1: little weird because Jimmy was sober. It was. It was 149 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 1: a little weird, alright. So there, oh man, Just as 150 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 1: a side note, wrapping back to the pur set point, 151 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: could you imagine having a three pound line to fall 152 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 1: on your leg? I watched that replay like at least 153 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: fifteen times, just because it was like one of the 154 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: main games we were watching. Uh and I just kept thinking, like, 155 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 1: what would that be like to have a three pound 156 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 1: man fall on your leg? I would get up and 157 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 1: say I'm done. I would probably never play another and 158 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:28,160 Speaker 1: not playing anymore, I'm done. Uh. Well, we talked a 159 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: little bit about the Giants. Stoling Shepherds is back in 160 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 1: the Concussion Protocol so he is not going to be available. 161 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 1: And now Graham, this is like this is coming an 162 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: ongoing thing now, and you start to wonder, Uh, you know, 163 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 1: it's big picture maybe about Shepherd's career, but at least 164 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 1: in the short term, what his availability is going to 165 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 1: be for the rest of the season and what this 166 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: means for you know, say Golden Tate and kind of 167 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 1: the rest of that passing game. Yeah, it's really unfortunate. 168 00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 1: This is now Shepherd's obviously a second concussion of this year, 169 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:56,679 Speaker 1: and and you know, any time that these these guys 170 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: getting re into the concussion protocol, it's definitely not good 171 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: long to or for fantasy. The spin is pretty simple. 172 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: I mean, Golden Tate has been like a PPR monster 173 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 1: over the last couple of weeks without Shepherd in the lineup. 174 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 1: I mean he's been He's seem like over eight or 175 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 1: nine targets in every game. Uh, he's out over eighty 176 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: yards in every game. I think Ty will have another 177 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 1: nice games night against the Cowboys, especially with Shepherd out. 178 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: But yeah, the Giants really need to get him back 179 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: on the field because I mean, their base offense between 180 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 1: Tate and Shepherd and Ingram is really nice on papers. 181 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: They just haven't been able to get those guys all 182 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 1: on the field at the same time together this year, 183 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 1: which is really unfortunate. Yeah, I mean I think that's 184 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 1: that's been the hard part. And I know that, you know, 185 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: we had high expectations for Sterling Shepherd and it just 186 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: hasn't happened. I would do, uh, you know, as much 187 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 1: as I was on Odell Beckham with to the Browns. 188 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:42,959 Speaker 1: Can we do like some sort of verse engineering and 189 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: get Odell Beckham back back to why don't we do this? 190 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 1: That would be fine? Why don't we trade Eli to Cleveland? Well, 191 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 1: I mean he and listen at this point, that is 192 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 1: something that I never thought that we would be actually 193 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:59,439 Speaker 1: wishing into like existence. I missed the days of Eli 194 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 1: and Obi J. I did. I missed him? If he oh, 195 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 1: b J was good with Eli. Do you think Baker 196 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 1: has dust behind that offensive line? Just offensive line? All right, 197 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: I get it, but still, I mean, I'd rather see 198 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 1: Eli throwing him past his But did you did you 199 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: see Baker's post game that look that he had. I 200 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 1: saw the memes that was hilarious. It was like, I'm 201 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: drafted by the Browns and after you know, nine weeks 202 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 1: I played for the Browns. He looked like a homeless 203 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 1: guy with that trench coat on. I saw a lot 204 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: of Wet Bandits memes. Yeah yeah, that's right, a lot 205 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 1: of Daniel Stern, that's right. Yeah. Yeah. Uh so Gardner Minshoe. Yeah, 206 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 1: it wasn't great. H that's not that's you're being nice. 207 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: Wasn't great. As the Jaguars lost to the Texans and 208 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 1: Nick Foles looks like he is ready to go after 209 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 1: his collarbone injury in week one. So the Jaguars have 210 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 1: a bye and now the reports are Doug Marone will 211 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,800 Speaker 1: wait during the bye to make a decision about who 212 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 1: will be his starter. Uh, coming up in week eleven 213 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:06,840 Speaker 1: for Jacksonville. Now I feel, in some ways I feel 214 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 1: sort of bad for Gardner Minshew because he stepped in, 215 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 1: played pretty well, moved the offense, you know, was very productive. Uh, 216 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,439 Speaker 1: he had a bad game at the worst possible time, 217 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,440 Speaker 1: right when the starter is about ready to come back, 218 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,440 Speaker 1: and now all of a sudden his job is on 219 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 1: the line. I mean literally two weeks and we're talking 220 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,080 Speaker 1: about man Nick Foles might never get his job back. 221 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 1: Now he has a bad game of the worst time, 222 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 1: you know, and that game was awful. I really hope 223 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,439 Speaker 1: that Doug Moron does not hold that game against Minshew. 224 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 1: I hope he does, because because Gardner was free, he 225 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,360 Speaker 1: was so good for the first eight weeks there in Jacksonville, 226 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,200 Speaker 1: and obviously then he has to go across across the 227 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 1: Atlantic and play really tough roads. Give it back to Foles. 228 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,199 Speaker 1: That was awful, dude, that was just I mean, from 229 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 1: a fantasy standpoint, everyone who needed a quarterback was trying 230 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,600 Speaker 1: to get Minshew. I started him in one of my leagues. 231 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,239 Speaker 1: Houston would given up twenty points a game to quarterbacks. 232 00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 1: They had given up the most fantasy points to wide receivers, 233 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 1: and Minshew basically neutered every receiver on that roster, including 234 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 1: DJ Chark, who might have been the biggest disappointment in 235 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 1: fantasy football this week. Give the give the offense back 236 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 1: to Nick Foles. Just do it, and I get it. 237 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: Mintshew has been a fun story. There was a half 238 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:15,839 Speaker 1: a dozen people dressed as Gardner Minshew here at the 239 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 1: NFL offices. It might have been maybe his powers don't 240 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,200 Speaker 1: go overseas. I don't know, because he was awful and 241 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter he looked like a guy who 242 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 1: didn't belong as as an NFL starter, that's for sure. 243 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 1: But he's also I mean, let's be honest, he's had 244 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 1: really good games against the Jets. They suck. The Bengals suck. Okay, Carolina, 245 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 1: that was that was an impressive performance on the road 246 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 1: against that defense. But he hasn't played like the greatest 247 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 1: defenses in the world. Kansas City's defense isn't any good. Uh. 248 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:50,840 Speaker 1: Game against Denver sixteen points against Denver's is okay, But 249 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 1: from fantasy, it's not great. So I'm just I mean, listen, 250 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: it's been a fun story with the mustaches and the 251 00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,199 Speaker 1: Burt Reynolds comparisons and the smokey and bandits. I loved 252 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 1: it all. It was fun. From a fantasy standpoint. I 253 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:04,679 Speaker 1: want him out. I want in there. I want to 254 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 1: see what he could do. Basically, you lost and now 255 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: you're salty? Yeah, oh yeah, what is I mean? No, 256 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 1: I'm mad? I mean, jeez, I remember I've seen Jamie 257 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,559 Speaker 1: Eisenberg a pal over at CBS tweet out. I had 258 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,079 Speaker 1: Gardener as my start of the week at quarterback. I'm like, hey, Jamie, 259 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 1: we all liked him, man. I mean, it was a 260 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: good match whatever. He just he was horrible. It is 261 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,679 Speaker 1: the vaguaries of fantasy food. It's time to go back 262 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 1: to Folds. You gave him a lot of money, see 263 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 1: what he can do. This happens every single year where 264 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 1: a quarterback in a great spot. We love all these 265 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 1: past catchers though, it just fail and it just happens. Dude, 266 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 1: I mean, it happens. But I'm on, I let's see 267 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 1: what Foals has. You know, I will say they do 268 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 1: have a big, big, big amount of sunk cost into 269 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 1: foalds Uh, And I think him, I think you're probably 270 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,319 Speaker 1: right that, at least from just like a pure like 271 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,320 Speaker 1: standpoint financial standpoint, but also how we know how these 272 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 1: things have gone in the past, that they will probably 273 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 1: try to go back to their guy that they have 274 00:12:56,080 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 1: a huge investment in. And whether that where that's the 275 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,560 Speaker 1: right choice. I really won't pretend to know, but I 276 00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 1: think when you have a rookie quarterback playing as well 277 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:06,959 Speaker 1: as Gardner's played, you just stick with him because I 278 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: just think it's funny that he has a bad game 279 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: and everybody's like, screw it's over, he's done, and a 280 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 1: lot of that. Let's not let's not pretend that Nick 281 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 1: Foles is exactly you know Hall of Fame quarterback here right, 282 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:20,520 Speaker 1: Like he got paid a lot of money because he 283 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 1: was the best option. He was the he was the 284 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:25,080 Speaker 1: nearest port in the storm for the Jacksonville Jaguars, and 285 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 1: he rolled in at the right time and they three 286 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 1: kings ransom at him. Give me shot. That's all I want. 287 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: So h there we go. That's pretty much sure everything 288 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: you need to know. Hey, quick note mint to mention 289 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: this at the top of the show, but I'll get 290 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 1: to it now. We are on YouTube.

So there you go. Hey, 326 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 1: week nine just about in the books, minus that one 327 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 1: last game that we already mentioned. So just kind of 328 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 1: time to go back through what happened on Sunday, uh 329 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 1: and sort of break some of these things down, starting 330 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 1: with the running back position this week. So fabs um 331 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 1: is Gordon fixed now? He had eighty rushan yards and 332 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 1: two touchdowns. Like he's he's fixed now, right, I certainly 333 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 1: hope so um. I had just traded for him in 334 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 1: one of my leagues, and I traded Lamar Jackson because 335 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 1: I'm loaded at quarterback. But it looked like that that game, 336 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 1: and remember is the first game without wizzenhun as d 337 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 1: OC looked like last year's charters, right. It looked like 338 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: Melvin Gordon had his featured role, Melvin Gordon was the 339 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 1: goal line back, and Austin Neckler was sprinkled in, uh. 340 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 1: And that was sort of what the Chargers have been 341 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: And I feel like they came out and won the 342 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 1: game against a team that had lost what once going 343 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:17,200 Speaker 1: into this week. Yeah, So so I feel like an 344 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 1: Eckler is great. I get it. Elers a talented back, 345 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 1: but from here on in moving forward, I really believe 346 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 1: that Melvin Gordon, and it took a few weeks for 347 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 1: him to sort of, you know, get his sea legs back, 348 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 1: but he played the snaps Awker was at thirty five. 349 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 1: I think this is probably what you're gonna see moving forward. Yeah, 350 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:36,800 Speaker 1: I will say the Packers literally did not show up 351 00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 1: in this game. I mean three quarters, they did not 352 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 1: move the ball on offense whatsoever. They were in third 353 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 1: down and long on literally every single one of their drives. 354 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 1: I mean, uh, Melvin Ingraman and Nick Bosa had their 355 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 1: way with Aaron Rodgers early in the game. I think 356 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 1: it really that really helped. The game script, really helped 357 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 1: getting Melvin Cord in the ball, you know, twenty three 358 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 1: times in this spot. You know, it's interesting obviously that 359 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:01,960 Speaker 1: Ken wasn't it gets fired and the very next game 360 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 1: Melvin Gordon plays a season high snapper. He gets twenty 361 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,160 Speaker 1: carries for the first time this season. But I really, 362 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:09,000 Speaker 1: you know, I think the game script had a lot 363 00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:11,359 Speaker 1: to do with this. But that being said, though, you know, 364 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,879 Speaker 1: I'm sitting here kind of poopooing on Gordon's performance do 365 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:15,959 Speaker 1: you get the Raiders in the Chiefs the next two weeks? So, 366 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 1: I mean it's two more good matchups. And maybe they did. 367 00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 1: Maybe they did solve something along their offensive line, because 368 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:24,920 Speaker 1: they for four straight weeks they did not run the ball. 369 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: I don't think they had over forty four straight games 370 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,159 Speaker 1: with under forty rushing. It was ridiculous. So maybe they 371 00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: got something a little bit going through offensive line this week. 372 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:35,159 Speaker 1: I don't know, but game script really helped here. The 373 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: Packers were not at all an opponent. But you know, 374 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 1: it's curious, I wonder how much of it was a 375 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 1: change at the offensive coordinator position. Maybe it's just kind 376 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,400 Speaker 1: of a new way of looking at things. How much 377 00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:47,639 Speaker 1: of it was just kind of a shake up in 378 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 1: the locker room, Like you see a move like this, 379 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:51,879 Speaker 1: and I feel like that sort of just wakes everybody up, 380 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:53,359 Speaker 1: I mean from the top down. And whether or not 381 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 1: the Chargers were like, oh wait, hey, hey, we gotta 382 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,520 Speaker 1: we gotta get again. Maybe maybe there's a little fire 383 00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:01,119 Speaker 1: under them. Um. So this just sets up for the 384 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:04,080 Speaker 1: Chargers doing the typical Charger thing of making a run 385 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 1: at this point and getting all their fans, you know, like, 386 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 1: well you could play fans, dozens of them in the 387 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 1: studio in our campus, and we still have rooms people 388 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:16,639 Speaker 1: to walk around, dozens of them. Stubb Hub Center was 389 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:20,040 Speaker 1: very quiet yesterday, getting the Chargers dominated, getting them excited, 390 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 1: and then having just the most heartbreaking, agonizing laws somewhere 391 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,919 Speaker 1: in like week fourteen or fifteen to uh to end 392 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:31,200 Speaker 1: their their playoff hopes because that's that's just the Charger away. Um. 393 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 1: So at the start of the year, we were really 394 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 1: excited about rookie running backs, right, I mean, Josh Jacobs 395 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 1: was like the first rookie running back off the board 396 00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 1: in most drafts. But we had high hopes for David Montgomery, 397 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 1: Miles Sanders, even Devin Singletary, and it took them a 398 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 1: while to get going. But the last few weeks they 399 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 1: really started to kind of pick some things up. So 400 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 1: I'll start with you, Graham. Those four guys, Jacob, Singletary, Montgomery, Sanders, 401 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 1: ranked them, how you're feeling about them right now? Yeah, 402 00:18:57,560 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 1: I think you have the order pretty much. I think 403 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,359 Speaker 1: it's I would flip Montgomery and Singletary, but Jacobs and 404 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 1: Montgomer are the top two guys. Devin Singletary, man, he 405 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:08,679 Speaker 1: he looks so good, and now they're starting to feature 406 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 1: him more. Over the last couple of weeks, the Bills 407 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,679 Speaker 1: have kind of shifted away from Frank Gore. Singletary has 408 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 1: played two thirds of the Bills snaps and he's I mean, 409 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:18,960 Speaker 1: Frank Gore is basically not playing on passing downs and 410 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:22,199 Speaker 1: now Singletary gets a chance to just absolutely smash the 411 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 1: Browns and the Dolphins over the next couple of weeks. 412 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,920 Speaker 1: I love Devin Singletary over the next couple of weeks. 413 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 1: I think he's going to be a really solid, like 414 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 1: RB two play. But I gotta stand for Josh Jacobs. 415 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 1: He is so freaking he's there are there were people. 416 00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 1: There were people out there that doubted that he could 417 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,679 Speaker 1: be a featured player because he wasn't in Alabama. He 418 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:42,359 Speaker 1: never he had only a couple of games maybe with 419 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 1: like twenty or more carries. And he is more than 420 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: proven that he's a workhorse back in the NFL. He 421 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:50,879 Speaker 1: has been awesome. Graham Barfield likes to say he is smashing. 422 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 1: He is so so good, and you know, I think 423 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 1: the biggest part of it, too, is that the Raiders 424 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,040 Speaker 1: have trusted him in that role. I mean, because we 425 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,680 Speaker 1: like compare that or contrast with David Montgomery, who now 426 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:03,679 Speaker 1: is playing well. But it just seemed like early on 427 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:06,800 Speaker 1: Matt Negie didn't trust giving him the football consistently. Now 428 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 1: that they are, he's starting to do something. But from 429 00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:13,119 Speaker 1: day one, John Gruden trusted Josh Jacobs to carry a 430 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 1: big workload in Oakland. Yeah, well, hats off to John Gruden, honestly, 431 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:20,119 Speaker 1: because their team is competitive each and every week. Their offense, 432 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 1: they are, They're fun to watch. Their offensive line is 433 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:25,680 Speaker 1: really stepped up, and Derek Carr is playing efficient ball 434 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:29,159 Speaker 1: and Josh Jacobs man, Josh Jacobs so good. Week one, 435 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 1: Josh Jacobs had twenty four touches. Yeah, like I mean, 436 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 1: right out of the gate, the right out of the gate, 437 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 1: Gruden showed us exactly what he wanted to do. Uh 438 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 1: So Ronald Jones started the game for Tampa yesterday on 439 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 1: the opening drive, had four carries for twenty yards, got 440 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 1: in the end zone. It's sort of kind of faded 441 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 1: a little bit as that that game became a track meet, 442 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 1: and so it kind of became about the quarterbacks between 443 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 1: Winston and uh and Russell Wilson. But it was fun 444 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:55,960 Speaker 1: to watch by the way. It was a lot of 445 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:57,719 Speaker 1: fun to watch. But in the Ronald Jones ends up 446 00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 1: playing the majority of the snaps there. He has a 447 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:02,399 Speaker 1: dec game all things considered, And I mean, fabs, we 448 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:04,840 Speaker 1: have been asking for the Bucks to just give us 449 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 1: one guy to lean on, one guy to just lease 450 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 1: make it interesting. So can we start to think that 451 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 1: Ronald Jones is now the guy in Tampa? I mean 452 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 1: really like when we start to feel like one guy 453 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:17,639 Speaker 1: is taking over. This has happened earlier in the season too. 454 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 1: Ronald Jones sorted round, we could pick him up off 455 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 1: the wiver wire and then and it went back to 456 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:25,120 Speaker 1: to Peyton Barber. So you never really know with this offense. 457 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 1: But I would suggest that clearly based off of what 458 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 1: we saw yesterday, that if you're thinking of starting a 459 00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,200 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay buccaneer next week, and they do have the Cardinals, 460 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 1: which could be another track meet. By the way, that 461 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 1: game Seattle Tampa so much fun to watch, Arizona Tampa 462 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,400 Speaker 1: could be as much fun to watch from a fantasy standpoint. 463 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: So I would go in there, and if Jones is 464 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 1: out there on the waiver wire, which he is in 465 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 1: a lot of leagues, I would not be adverse to 466 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 1: picking him up and rolling him out as a flex. 467 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 1: I'm just so sick of this Bucks backfield. I mean, 468 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 1: three weeks ago, Darry freaking Oguon bou Wally was playing 469 00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:01,280 Speaker 1: like over of the snaps. It's just it's hard to figure. 470 00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: I don't think honestly, I really don't think even Bruce 471 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 1: arians knows week to week how these running backs are 472 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,399 Speaker 1: going to play out. There's just it's just a pure 473 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 1: hoth hand and kind of game flow came blow type 474 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: deal and for fantasy, that just makes it completely useless. Man. 475 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:18,159 Speaker 1: I bet that I will say. I mean, Rojo looks 476 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 1: a lot better this year, which which is a very 477 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: it was a small I mean it's a small bar 478 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 1: to hop obviously, but yeah, I mean Ronald Jones looks 479 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:27,239 Speaker 1: so much, so much better this year, and so much 480 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,400 Speaker 1: better than Peyton Barber. Yeah. One of the thing. Here's 481 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:31,320 Speaker 1: the thing. We we sort of know what Peyton Barber 482 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 1: is at this point in his career, right like, we're 483 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:34,919 Speaker 1: still trying to figure out what Ronald Jones is. And 484 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 1: I think I think you heard all those stories about 485 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 1: him bulking up and trying to get in better shape, 486 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 1: and I think just from he definitely did that. And 487 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:43,359 Speaker 1: I also think that, you know, there was just a 488 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,399 Speaker 1: mental aspect of the two that he had to sort of, 489 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:46,879 Speaker 1: you know, wrap his head around, and I think he 490 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: started to do that now. So maybe this means better 491 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 1: things for him going forward. Over the wide receivers, Mohammed 492 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,399 Speaker 1: Sanknew had a big night last night. The Patriots lost, 493 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 1: but you know, so New came out and got a 494 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:02,639 Speaker 1: ton of targets, was really productive with them. So I mean, Graham, 495 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:05,160 Speaker 1: does this mean is this real or is this a mirage? 496 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 1: I mean, can we can? We think bigger things are 497 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:09,159 Speaker 1: coming for most to now? No? You know what I 498 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 1: kind of do because if you go back and kind 499 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 1: of look at how the Patriots are playing this year, 500 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:15,879 Speaker 1: they are not running the ball effectively whatsoever. I mean, 501 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 1: they are like well under three and a half yards 502 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 1: per Cary Sony Michelle basically didn't play yesterday. They played 503 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 1: Rex Burkhead and James White to By the way, that 504 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: trend continued. I talked about it all week. When Burkehead 505 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:29,920 Speaker 1: is active, you can't play Sta Jail with any kind 506 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,719 Speaker 1: of confidence. Unfortunately, that game was a Sunday night one, 507 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 1: so you didn't know, Yeah, you know, I was gonna 508 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:36,960 Speaker 1: say that the Patriots over the last couple of weeks 509 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:38,920 Speaker 1: have just thrown the ball a ton. I mean, Brady 510 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: is over forty pass attempts now and five of his 511 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 1: last seven games. One of those games he had thirty 512 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:46,880 Speaker 1: nine pass attempts. Who's right on the cusp. And every 513 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:49,400 Speaker 1: single week they're just throwing the super short and playing 514 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 1: the most boring pass offense ever in Mohammed sannew as 515 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 1: we know, is not going to be people downfield. So 516 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 1: if if they're going to continue to, you know, have 517 00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 1: this high volume pass off in short pass offense, they 518 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 1: need so buddy else that can function in the middle 519 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:03,200 Speaker 1: of the field. And I think they found it in 520 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:04,719 Speaker 1: So New And I think that's kind of what they 521 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,440 Speaker 1: were going for, is like they know that they don't 522 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:09,440 Speaker 1: really have a field stretcher, Brady can't throw it deep 523 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:11,440 Speaker 1: as much anymore, and they're running the ball, I mean 524 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,639 Speaker 1: just completely ineffectively behind that offensive line right now. I 525 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 1: think I think Snoo and PPR leagues could be a 526 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:20,359 Speaker 1: really sneaky receiver to moving forward here. Yeah, I mean, 527 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 1: you know, and obviously the Patriots needed a receiver. That 528 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:24,720 Speaker 1: was why they went and added him in the trades 529 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:26,359 Speaker 1: and they needed a guy that they can lean on 530 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:28,280 Speaker 1: in the red zone. And that's big in fantasy, and 531 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,240 Speaker 1: that's what Snoo is gonna be. And they get Eagles 532 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 1: Eagles in Week eleven, Texans in Week thirteen out of 533 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 1: their BIOSO pretty good spots for some even more past 534 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 1: volume here. Yeah uh so, I wrote in Things I 535 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:43,159 Speaker 1: Learned that the DeVante Parker breakout season is sort of 536 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,440 Speaker 1: underway right like right now, he is on pace for 537 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 1: a career high and receiving yards and he's already tied 538 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 1: his career high in touchdowns with four. UM. With Ryan 539 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:56,360 Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick at quarterback, the offense looks functional. You know, they're 540 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 1: moving the football, they're scoring points. They actually look like 541 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 1: they know what they're doing out there. Throwing the fact 542 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 1: that Preston Williams, who I know, got got a little 543 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:06,399 Speaker 1: banged up and it's kind of getting checked out this week. Um, 544 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:09,440 Speaker 1: but he's playing some good football as well. So, FABS, 545 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:11,800 Speaker 1: are we cool with the Dolphins receivers right now? I 546 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 1: mean it depends on relatively speaks like a matchup. I mean, 547 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:18,760 Speaker 1: because well, we like Fitzpatrick under center for fantasy purposes. 548 00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 1: We don't want Josh Rosen, he could stay in the silence, 549 00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:23,440 Speaker 1: Sorry Josh, but um Fitzpatrick is a guy who puts 550 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:26,520 Speaker 1: the Dolphins receivers into play for us, right from a 551 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 1: fantasy standpoint, And so if Williams is If Williams is injured, seriously, 552 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,199 Speaker 1: I mean he's having an m R I. But right now, 553 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 1: I mean Parker's four touchdowns in his last five games. 554 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 1: They've got the Colts coming up this week, not as 555 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 1: easy of a matchup as the Jets, but with six 556 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 1: teams on a buy, I feel like as a flex 557 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:45,440 Speaker 1: or three, you could do worse than play Tavante Parker, 558 00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:49,200 Speaker 1: especially if Williams is it limited or or unavailable because 559 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 1: of the injury. And they've got they've got the ninth 560 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 1: easiest wide receiver schedule the rest of the way. Right, 561 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:54,520 Speaker 1: you mentioned the Colts this week. They've got the Bills 562 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:56,479 Speaker 1: in two weeks, which you know, I don't know how 563 00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 1: you feel about that one, but not good. They've got 564 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 1: the brown They've got the Eagles, they've got the Jets again, 565 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 1: they've got the Giants, they've got the Bengals. I mean, 566 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 1: there are a lot of good matchup there on Parker 567 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 1: touchdown machine, who who would have thought right now? Right, 568 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,359 Speaker 1: I mean what is he in his like fifth season? Now? 569 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 1: I mean like it's been a while. I mean we've 570 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:15,720 Speaker 1: been waiting for You've been waiting for it, and it's 571 00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 1: finally starting to happen. It's here, man, It's finally starting 572 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:20,800 Speaker 1: to happen. It's here when we all at least expected it, 573 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 1: when we no one was drafting him, when we were 574 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: all drafting even Albert Wilson righter and now it's Devonte Parker. 575 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 1: But good for him, yeah, man, I mean he's gonna go, 576 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 1: he's gonna go somewhere and make him, make himself a 577 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 1: nice little child. Change and he'll be you know, he'll 578 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 1: be like a secondary receiver who will be pretty productive. 579 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:41,160 Speaker 1: So it'll it'll sort of work out. Um, grahamy gets 580 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:42,879 Speaker 1: better for Keenan Allen right, Like he hasn't scored a 581 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 1: touchdown since scored a touchdown since Week three three, Um, 582 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:48,639 Speaker 1: I mean he's I don't think he's had more than 583 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:51,800 Speaker 1: like sixty one receiving yards in any game since Week three. 584 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 1: And it's just I can't figure out why it's there. 585 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 1: But it gets better, right, you know, you know I 586 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:01,080 Speaker 1: thought it would get better this week with this this spot, right, 587 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I thought the Packers would come in and 588 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 1: at least be able to move the ball, but Philip 589 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:06,399 Speaker 1: Rivers only had to throw it twenty eight times. And 590 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:09,120 Speaker 1: then the two prior weeks Keenan was over double digit 591 00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:11,119 Speaker 1: targets again, probably just got a little bit unlucky, just 592 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 1: didn't have any big, big receptions and no touchdowns. But yeah, 593 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 1: you mentioned it man that the yardage has completely fallen 594 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 1: off a cliff over the last couple of weeks. He's 595 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 1: been around like forty two yards per game over the 596 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:25,440 Speaker 1: last six weeks, hasn't scored um, you know, I want 597 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:29,440 Speaker 1: to say it gets better again too. Decent matchup upcoming, 598 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:31,639 Speaker 1: like we mentioned with Melvin Gordon against the Raiders and 599 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:34,560 Speaker 1: Chiefs should be to shootouts and and Keenan Allen cam 600 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 1: beat the Chiefs out of the slop at Man, it's 601 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 1: just to me right now, they have a lot of 602 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 1: weapons that they're feeding and if Keenan Allen, they don't 603 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:46,399 Speaker 1: have clear plays where where key Nowen's you know, the 604 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 1: game plan target. It's just it kind of seems like 605 00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 1: he's kind of slipping into like just the secondary fold 606 00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:55,159 Speaker 1: in this offense. Where Hunter Henry and Mike Williams and 607 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:57,399 Speaker 1: Allen and now they're getting Gordon involved. It's just kind 608 00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:01,879 Speaker 1: of this big, you know, cohe cohesive thing. Now had 609 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 1: a good game. I think that was his first huntret 610 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 1: yard game ever. And it's not just keen down and 611 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 1: getting you know, fed fifteen targets like we saw in 612 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 1: the first couple of weeks. You know, they're they're actually 613 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:13,119 Speaker 1: spread the ball around here over the quarterbacks. Uh have 614 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:15,119 Speaker 1: to be back to worrying about Aaron Rodgers or was 615 00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 1: was yesterday just sort of a weird hiccup that happened. 616 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:19,959 Speaker 1: It was strange. I will say this though, he has 617 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,119 Speaker 1: one of the hardest schedules among quarterbacks for the rest 618 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 1: of the season. I talked about that on the TV 619 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:28,040 Speaker 1: side um last week. And also let's keep in mind that, 620 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 1: I mean Rogers still had I believe four games with 621 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 1: fewer than fifteen Fantasy points this season. He started off 622 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 1: really slowly, and then he had you know, just like 623 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 1: three or four like just monster games in a row, 624 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 1: so he kind of got back into our good graces. 625 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 1: But I mean, you're probably starting the most weeks, Marcus. 626 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 1: But I still feel like those matchups down the stretch, 627 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 1: and I believe correct me if I'm wrong. I think 628 00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 1: he's got the Bears and the Vikings in the last 629 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 1: two weeks of the fantasy postseason. That's that's not at active. 630 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 1: I mean, Minnesota, you know they're they're beautiful through the year. 631 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 1: I guess, so that's not as bad. But I mean 632 00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 1: Chicago is a tough matchup for any quarterback in the 633 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 1: league right now, I guess not named Mahomes or or 634 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:04,760 Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. So he's still gonna end up being in 635 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: starting lineups. It was a disappointment yesterday without question. And um, 636 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 1: they have Carolina coming up at lambeau Field. He's probably 637 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 1: gonna be under center. I mean, guys, we've got six 638 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: teams off. Yeah, I mean it's true. But going back 639 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 1: and look at Rogers year this year, it's just kind 640 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 1: of been all over the place, right. I mean, he's 641 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 1: had that huge game against the Eagles where he threw 642 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:25,080 Speaker 1: for over four yards, and obviously he had a huge 643 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 1: game against the Raiders, had a good one last week 644 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 1: against the Chiefs. But outside of that, it's just kind 645 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:32,200 Speaker 1: of been a whole hummy year for Rogers this year. 646 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 1: And you mentioned the schedule down the stretch, probably not 647 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 1: great for him. But yeah, Niners when they come out 648 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 1: of their buying week twelve, I'm really excited for that 649 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 1: game Packers Niners. That should be fun. That's gonna be 650 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:44,680 Speaker 1: really really good. That's gonna be like shades of like 651 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 1: you know, the old Steve Young and the Packers converge 652 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 1: and he continues on into the end zone. That was 653 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 1: a very memorable play. Yeah, that was remember that one. 654 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:58,120 Speaker 1: I remember that game because as a Niners fan, of 655 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:01,280 Speaker 1: course I remember. I also remember because think uh like 656 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 1: to was actually really hurt in that game, and like 657 00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 1: he took a wicked shot on that game winning touchdown 658 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 1: and like you know, everybody's trying to celebrate it, he 659 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: was like an obvious just trying to get up off 660 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:14,360 Speaker 1: the turf. We talked a little bit about the Broncos earlier, 661 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 1: and like I said, I'm curious to kind of go 662 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 1: back and watch this game and seeing what happened. But Graham, uh, 663 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 1: Brandon Allen thoughts, Yeah, you know I went and looked. 664 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 1: So the Brown excuse me, the Broncos only ran forty 665 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:30,720 Speaker 1: three offensive plays yesterday, not a lot. Broncos or the 666 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 1: Brown still lost so I just don't under I don't 667 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:36,320 Speaker 1: understand how that's possible. I get it, know a fan 668 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:38,960 Speaker 1: had the big play, and Brandon Allen definitely had. Like 669 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:42,920 Speaker 1: on that opening drive that Courtland Sutton touched was ridiculous, 670 00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 1: that was the thing a beautilest But yeah, I mean Brandon, 671 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:47,800 Speaker 1: they basically didn't have the ball on offense. I mean 672 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 1: Philip Lindsay ripped off a big play. It kind of 673 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 1: seemed like they just had a few chunk plays there, 674 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 1: and that was really kind of it for for Fantasy 675 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:56,600 Speaker 1: and for Brandon Allen. So I don't know if we 676 00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 1: really know too much about Brandon Allen after that game, 677 00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 1: but but hats hats off to the bron the Broncos man, Like, 678 00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 1: you know, the Browns are expected to come in here 679 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:09,040 Speaker 1: and you know, at least um, you know, compete, I guess, 680 00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:11,760 Speaker 1: and and the Broncos didn't roll over, and you know 681 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,440 Speaker 1: they only needed a few plays to do it. Brandon 682 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 1: On only through the ball twenty times yesterday, guys, which 683 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:19,960 Speaker 1: honestly is like I kind of expected that they would 684 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 1: try to maybe not hide him but sort of protect 685 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:23,760 Speaker 1: him a little bit, and it just so happened that 686 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:25,440 Speaker 1: he came out really and kind of got hot and 687 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,920 Speaker 1: made some good throws, got some nice plays behind him, 688 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 1: uh to really help out. But I do think that, 689 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:32,719 Speaker 1: you know, I don't know that we can read too 690 00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: much into what happened and suddenly think the Brandon Allen 691 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:37,240 Speaker 1: is is a viable fantasy starter for you. It just 692 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:41,480 Speaker 1: happened to really work out for him on Sunday. Um okay, fabs. 693 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 1: Who would rather at this point Carson wins or Jamis Winston. 694 00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:48,440 Speaker 1: I'd rather have Janis. Yeah. I think the schedule is 695 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:51,320 Speaker 1: Banana is good for him down the stretch like he is. 696 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 1: The Buccaneers have the easiest schedule among quarterbacks for the 697 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 1: rest of the season. Seattle, Listen, these ain't your daddy Seahawks. 698 00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 1: They're not good defensively, especially against the past. And now 699 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:04,840 Speaker 1: he's got Arizona coming up, so I and and when 700 00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 1: he was dropped in one of my leagues that picked 701 00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:08,480 Speaker 1: him up because he's got a couple of matchups, we're 702 00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 1: gonna be able to use him down the stretch. But Philadelphia, 703 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:14,400 Speaker 1: they have the ninth hardest schedule among quarterbacks the rest 704 00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 1: of the season. And you know, Carson isn't a really 705 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,640 Speaker 1: bad stretch right now, whereas he he said he has Chicago, 706 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 1: he said Buffalo, um that they are on a by 707 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:27,400 Speaker 1: I believe coming up. But he's a guy who you 708 00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 1: drafted to be your QB one, but he's a matchup 709 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:33,200 Speaker 1: based starter, and the matchup has been retally bad for him. 710 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 1: And as as much as you worry about Winston because 711 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 1: he has those horrible games like he had overseas where 712 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 1: he turned the ball over like a hundred times, so 713 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 1: I mean that, then you watched him play yesterday and 714 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:46,640 Speaker 1: he went head to freaking head with the best quarterback 715 00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 1: in the league. Right now, he really did. Jamis played 716 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:51,640 Speaker 1: extremely well, Yes, played very well outside of that one 717 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:53,320 Speaker 1: fumble where the ball kind of like flew up in 718 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:56,600 Speaker 1: the middle, right, played very well. Yeah, I mean, and 719 00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 1: now he's got Arizona. And so you go back and 720 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:01,480 Speaker 1: you look at his performances week to week, right, like 721 00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 1: he had bad performances against defenses that are pretty good. 722 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:06,640 Speaker 1: I mean, everybody looks at Week one against the Niners. 723 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 1: But now you look back on you're like, oh, well, 724 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 1: the Niners have done that to a lot of people now, right, 725 00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:12,320 Speaker 1: so it doesn't look quite as bad as it used to. 726 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 1: Mean um, you know the Panthers. He had, you know 727 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 1: too not so great games against Carolina. I don't know 728 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 1: that there's a whole lot of shame in that necessarily, 729 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:22,800 Speaker 1: but the favorable matchups I mean he has, he's crushed. 730 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 1: I mean, he beat up on the Giant. He he 731 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:26,800 Speaker 1: crushed the Rams, which I think still like opened a 732 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:28,600 Speaker 1: lot of eyes, especially at the time, to come to 733 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 1: Los Angeles and do that. But he played well agains 734 00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:33,239 Speaker 1: to Titans, he played well against the Seahawks, and as 735 00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,000 Speaker 1: you mentioned, the schedule is great for him. I mean, 736 00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 1: he's got the Cardinals, he's got the Falcons one more time, 737 00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 1: he's you know, he's got the Lions, he's got the Texans. 738 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 1: These are games in which he can go out and 739 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:46,080 Speaker 1: perform really well. You know. I I wrote last week 740 00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 1: and entired wired that James might end up winning some 741 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:51,520 Speaker 1: people some fantasy championships. Like you're not starting him each 742 00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:53,760 Speaker 1: and every week, but you play him in the right spots, 743 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:55,360 Speaker 1: he can get you to the playoffs and he could 744 00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:58,920 Speaker 1: probably win you a fantasy title somewhere. So, um, all right, 745 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 1: so let's look at Week nine. I went through and 746 00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 1: I wanted to do some little factor fictions, like with 747 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 1: three statements and I'll put them to you guys, and 748 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:07,840 Speaker 1: you can tell me whether you think these are fact 749 00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 1: or fiction about things we have seen, whether it's all season, 750 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 1: in the last few weeks, or what have you. First one, 751 00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 1: the Bill's defense is good against the run, like that 752 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 1: was something I think we seem to believe, and I 753 00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:22,200 Speaker 1: think we were sort of hesitant to play some running 754 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:23,960 Speaker 1: backs against them. I know that, you know, we were 755 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,759 Speaker 1: sort of so so on Adrian Peterson this week, he 756 00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:29,960 Speaker 1: smashed uh the week before. I mean, the Eagles kind 757 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:33,319 Speaker 1: of ran through the Buffalo Bills um and you look 758 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:34,759 Speaker 1: at it, there's sort of middle of the road in 759 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,560 Speaker 1: terms of their run defense. So I mean, are they 760 00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:39,719 Speaker 1: still a good run defense and they just had a 761 00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:42,160 Speaker 1: couple of bad weeks or were we giving them maybe 762 00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 1: too much credit? I think with with any almost every 763 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:47,480 Speaker 1: matchup in the NFL, outside of like you know, obvious 764 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 1: ones like the Bucks defense is really freaking good. I 765 00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:52,840 Speaker 1: think most matchups come down to the offense. It's not 766 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 1: necessarily the defense. And we know what the Redskins have 767 00:34:55,200 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 1: wanted to do with Bill Callahan, and you know, they 768 00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 1: have a whole eighteen points to show for it over 769 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:02,239 Speaker 1: the last three weeks. But they just run the ball 770 00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:04,439 Speaker 1: and drain the clock. I mean they've been uh they've 771 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:07,120 Speaker 1: had under fifty offensive snaps now in three straight games. 772 00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:09,280 Speaker 1: And you know, I think a little bit of yesterday's 773 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:12,520 Speaker 1: game was was Peterson one just getting fed the rock relentlessly. 774 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:17,319 Speaker 1: But he's also still really good, crazy still, Like I mean, 775 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 1: it blows my mind how much burst in and pop 776 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,879 Speaker 1: he has in the middle of the season after dealing 777 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:25,360 Speaker 1: with an ankle spring. Yeah, I mean, just this is 778 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 1: a Hall of Fame running back, and that performance yesterday 779 00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:31,560 Speaker 1: sort of I've been picking up Darius guys and all 780 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:33,120 Speaker 1: the leagues I can get them. If you look at 781 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:36,440 Speaker 1: his schedule, it's very favorable. Uh. Down the stretch. I mean, 782 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,040 Speaker 1: they have the Jets coming off of a week tend by, 783 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:42,480 Speaker 1: They've got Detroit. Carolina's begetting crushed by running backs. They 784 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:46,560 Speaker 1: got Green like every matchup Marcus except for Philly. Right 785 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,240 Speaker 1: then you got the Giants in week sixteen. The matchups 786 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:51,239 Speaker 1: are really good and I'm hoping that there is. And 787 00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:52,960 Speaker 1: I would still pick him up in any league that 788 00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:54,879 Speaker 1: he's out there, especially if you have a reserve spot 789 00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:56,480 Speaker 1: on NFL dot com where you can just throw him 790 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:58,719 Speaker 1: in there until he comes back. Uh, and he's activated. 791 00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:01,960 Speaker 1: But I mean that performance from Peterson, you know, made 792 00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:04,279 Speaker 1: me pause a little bit. Man, maybe Darius isn't going 793 00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,399 Speaker 1: to get the starting job back ridals well. And even 794 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:08,800 Speaker 1: if he does, I can't imagine after you know, a 795 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:11,040 Speaker 1: litany of injuries, that they're going to give him just 796 00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:13,680 Speaker 1: a huge workload that you know, he's still going to 797 00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:15,880 Speaker 1: kind of rotate in. I think even when it happened, 798 00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:19,279 Speaker 1: they have to because Peterson is is one still playing 799 00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 1: exceptionally well, and I don't think they can trust Darius 800 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:23,680 Speaker 1: guys to stay healthy and so in the same sort 801 00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 1: of featured role that Peterson has been getting over the 802 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:27,680 Speaker 1: last few weeks. The one thing I would say about 803 00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:30,239 Speaker 1: Bill Callahan to his credit is, uh, he runs a 804 00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,319 Speaker 1: pretty tight ship in terms of getting the getting those 805 00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:33,800 Speaker 1: guys in and on and off the field. Man, Like 806 00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:36,799 Speaker 1: Washington games, they're quick now, like He's they're getting out 807 00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:38,200 Speaker 1: of there in like two and a half hours. So like, 808 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:41,200 Speaker 1: kudos to you man that that Bill's Redskins game ended 809 00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:44,480 Speaker 1: in like two hours. Yesterday the Panthers Titans was like 810 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:47,080 Speaker 1: starting the fourth quarter and the Bill's Redskins game was 811 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:50,440 Speaker 1: like in their final sound like seriously like Bill callenhan 812 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,399 Speaker 1: Is is coaching like he's double parked, and so good 813 00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:56,719 Speaker 1: on you, good on you for that. Um, all right, 814 00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:59,919 Speaker 1: next one, Austin Hooper is a tight end one play 815 00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:01,759 Speaker 1: the rest of the year. I mean, right now, he 816 00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:04,560 Speaker 1: is the tight end one. I don't necessarily expect him 817 00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:08,240 Speaker 1: to finish as the tight end one. Um, but I mean, Graham, 818 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:10,200 Speaker 1: he can. He can be tight and one the rest 819 00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:12,320 Speaker 1: of the season at this point, right. Oh. Yes, And 820 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 1: and you know this is something we've talked about in 821 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,640 Speaker 1: this show all year. It's just the Falcons, uh, the 822 00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:20,040 Speaker 1: Falcons in aptitude and they're they're just general sucking has 823 00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:23,040 Speaker 1: really helped, has really helped this pass offense. I mean 824 00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:25,880 Speaker 1: they're just extremely high volume and and and you know, 825 00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:28,480 Speaker 1: we'll see how this offense kind of plays out now 826 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:30,400 Speaker 1: that Mohammed Sanu has gone too. But I mean Sanu 827 00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:32,480 Speaker 1: is seeing on you know, fifteen sixteen percent of the 828 00:37:32,520 --> 00:37:34,920 Speaker 1: team's targets and and now there's even more volume to 829 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 1: go around here. Yep, yeah, no no question about that. 830 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:41,360 Speaker 1: So um yeah, Hooper has been I mean, damn, I 831 00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:43,480 Speaker 1: think we said this last week, right at this point 832 00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:46,280 Speaker 1: in the season, would you rather have taken Travis Kelsey 833 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:48,200 Speaker 1: in the first or second round or Hooper way late? 834 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:51,000 Speaker 1: No brainer, I'd rather have a Hooper. Oh yeah, I 835 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:54,200 Speaker 1: mean Hooper has has done he is he has been 836 00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 1: better than advertising. As you mentioned, Without Sanu in the offense, 837 00:37:57,360 --> 00:38:00,239 Speaker 1: the red zone opportunities could potentially grow a little bit more. 838 00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:02,759 Speaker 1: And he is going to get targeted a ton in 839 00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:05,400 Speaker 1: an offense that throws the ball a ton. He is 840 00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:07,960 Speaker 1: in them. He's in the running for best draft bargain 841 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:10,719 Speaker 1: of the season, I think, without a doubt. Doubt. Uh 842 00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:13,919 Speaker 1: so the last one. Him and Taryn Waller. Darren Waller 843 00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:17,080 Speaker 1: for sure belat tricks are back in the Patriots backfield. 844 00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:19,960 Speaker 1: Like you know, look, James White is still doing his thing. 845 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:22,000 Speaker 1: I mean there's the Rex Birkhead, there's a Sony Michelle 846 00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:24,040 Speaker 1: Like is it still are we back to not being 847 00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:26,920 Speaker 1: able to decipher? Is it stills simple as when Birkhead plays, 848 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,719 Speaker 1: you don't play Michi Rex Burkehead screwed everything up for us. 849 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:31,879 Speaker 1: He screwed everything up for us. I mean no fault 850 00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:33,919 Speaker 1: of his own. He just wants to get out and play. 851 00:38:34,360 --> 00:38:36,840 Speaker 1: But every time, and it doesn't affect James White, but 852 00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 1: every time Burkehead has been on the field, Sony Michelle 853 00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:43,920 Speaker 1: has been a disappointment. Going into this past weekend, Michelle 854 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,520 Speaker 1: was averaging crew within seven Fantasy points per game in 855 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:49,839 Speaker 1: games where Burkehead was active, seventeen points per game where 856 00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:53,080 Speaker 1: Burkehead is out. The last two games Burkehead has been active, 857 00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:56,400 Speaker 1: Sony Michelle has been a disappointment, and there is no 858 00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:59,880 Speaker 1: coincidence in that trend. Guys. Yeah, it's true. In Michelle 859 00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:03,440 Speaker 1: last night had four carries. That's it. Four. Uh, you know, 860 00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:05,799 Speaker 1: the Patriots obviously got behind and they really couldn't get 861 00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:08,319 Speaker 1: any there getting into the run sets, but he only 862 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:13,600 Speaker 1: played twenty two of the team snaps. Moving forward, you know, 863 00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:15,960 Speaker 1: there's gonna be games where Michelle is going to have 864 00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:20,040 Speaker 1: multiple touchdowns. But it's really hard to trust Michelle in 865 00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:23,400 Speaker 1: your lineups, especially in PPR leagues, because he's just not 866 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,040 Speaker 1: going to catch any passes Escially, Birkhead's gonna you know, 867 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,040 Speaker 1: continue to play. This is going to be what the 868 00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:30,400 Speaker 1: Bill's backfield is the rest of the season. Michelle is 869 00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:33,320 Speaker 1: going to be uh solely dependent on scoring touchdowns to 870 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:36,080 Speaker 1: be productive in your fantasy lineup. Yeah, and I know 871 00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 1: people are. I sort of believe that they're gonna start 872 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:39,960 Speaker 1: leaning on him down the stretch, but I don't know 873 00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:42,200 Speaker 1: that that's going to happen. Especially this year is different, man, 874 00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:44,799 Speaker 1: especially with their offensive line that they're struggling a little 875 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:46,319 Speaker 1: bit and they're throwing, they're having to throw a bunch 876 00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:48,440 Speaker 1: to stay in games. I think this year is is 877 00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:51,719 Speaker 1: different in that sense. Very well, very well? Could uh 878 00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:53,800 Speaker 1: looking at the waiver wire, is you get ready to 879 00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:56,200 Speaker 1: put in your claims for the week. It is a 880 00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:59,319 Speaker 1: decent sized list for you. Zach Pascal is out there 881 00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:02,520 Speaker 1: with the new obviously the t y Hilton Uh could 882 00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:05,480 Speaker 1: miss multiple weeks. It happened right after I treated for 883 00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:09,239 Speaker 1: him in the league. By the way, it's funny because 884 00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:12,919 Speaker 1: you said Pascal, it's actually Pascal Pascal, but I say 885 00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:15,879 Speaker 1: Pascal too, And it's because of pet Cemetery. I think, 886 00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:17,480 Speaker 1: do you remember that you remember the character in that 887 00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,319 Speaker 1: Pascal Maybe that was the guy who ended up being 888 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:22,560 Speaker 1: the ghost who is trying to warn the father not 889 00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 1: to go into the pet cemetery. So I've said, I 890 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 1: feel like it's not Its feel like there's some guy 891 00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:30,279 Speaker 1: that I learned about like in high school chemistry or 892 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:33,200 Speaker 1: something that was like Pascal, it's Pascal. Because Rhet Lewis 893 00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:34,960 Speaker 1: corrected me on that last week. I'm like, oh, are 894 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:39,399 Speaker 1: you sure, yeah, right now, Okay, it's Pascal. So Zach Pascal, Sorry, Zach, 895 00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:42,440 Speaker 1: my bad. Uh. So he's out there, especially with t 896 00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 1: Y Hilton expected to be out for who knows how 897 00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:47,359 Speaker 1: many weeks right now, he becomes a viable play there, 898 00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:49,880 Speaker 1: especially if they're having a big game on Sunday. Kareem 899 00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:53,120 Speaker 1: Hunt is due back next week, right he's available for 900 00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:57,440 Speaker 1: the Browns. Um. I wonder what his workloads going because 901 00:40:57,640 --> 00:40:59,960 Speaker 1: Nick Chu has been very good this year, even as 902 00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:02,080 Speaker 1: Browns have struggled, nich Chubb has not been part of it. 903 00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:04,040 Speaker 1: I'm not even worried about it initially, like in the 904 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:07,239 Speaker 1: first week, because you know, Chubb is gonna he's gonna 905 00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:10,600 Speaker 1: dominate the carries. Uh and and I think Hunt needs 906 00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:12,279 Speaker 1: to get sort of back into the rhythm of of 907 00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:16,880 Speaker 1: actually playing in real football games. But I hope that 908 00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:18,840 Speaker 1: I hope that doesn't turn into yeah I I I 909 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:20,680 Speaker 1: don't think it will, but I really hope it doesn't. 910 00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:22,640 Speaker 1: I will say that would suck. I will say, Chubb 911 00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:24,640 Speaker 1: snaps have been down over the last couple of weeks, 912 00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:27,840 Speaker 1: and I wonder if they're kind of like they've got 913 00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:29,480 Speaker 1: to have some sort of role in mind for Cream 914 00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:31,520 Speaker 1: Hunt because their second running back this year has just 915 00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:34,400 Speaker 1: been they've just been rotating there. They've just been rotating 916 00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:36,799 Speaker 1: their guys, so they'll probably get Hunt involved in some way. 917 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:38,880 Speaker 1: But I'm with you though, Fabs, I definitely don't think 918 00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:42,359 Speaker 1: Chubbs is going to lose that early down roll. Uh 919 00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:44,800 Speaker 1: See next up, Ronald Jones. We talked about him and 920 00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:47,359 Speaker 1: what his future potentially is in Tampa for the rest 921 00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:49,839 Speaker 1: of the season. Brian Hoyer mentioned him at the start 922 00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:52,399 Speaker 1: of the show with the Jacoby percent week to week 923 00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:54,759 Speaker 1: uh and six teams on a bye this week. Brian 924 00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:56,560 Speaker 1: Hoyer is going to be I'm sure a popular ad 925 00:41:57,239 --> 00:41:59,920 Speaker 1: hunter renfro who having his touchdowns and back to back 926 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:02,560 Speaker 1: games now and it's really kind of starting to get 927 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:04,840 Speaker 1: more than books in that all. He just looks like 928 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:07,560 Speaker 1: he looks like a forty five year old accountant. Yeah, no, funny, 929 00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:10,960 Speaker 1: he looks He does not look like a football player whatsoever. 930 00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:13,440 Speaker 1: Exactly Like if I mad him and I didn't know 931 00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:15,440 Speaker 1: who he was and he said, hey, Hunter renfro, Hey, 932 00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:18,400 Speaker 1: so what do you do for work? You know, car salesman, insurance? 933 00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:20,279 Speaker 1: You know, like, what do what do? I played for 934 00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:24,160 Speaker 1: the Oakland Writers? What are you the kicker? No, I'm 935 00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:28,759 Speaker 1: I'm there. And and he's only twenty three. Um, oh hey, 936 00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:30,920 Speaker 1: god bless him. He actually looks like he would if 937 00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:32,759 Speaker 1: you know, for those of you who watched, you know, 938 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:36,640 Speaker 1: NBA basketball is no way he is twenty three according 939 00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:40,120 Speaker 1: to the quarterings for the he's got this. He's got 940 00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:43,239 Speaker 1: the same issue with Jordan, I guess the hairline issues. Yeah, 941 00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:45,080 Speaker 1: I think I would imagine he would be friends with 942 00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:50,560 Speaker 1: anybody who watches the Lakers. Alex Caruso, who oh yes, yeah, 943 00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:52,960 Speaker 1: My girlfriend and I joke we call him Ralph's because 944 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:55,080 Speaker 1: he looks like he would be a grocery store manager 945 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:57,759 Speaker 1: and not an NBA player. Another kind of young guy 946 00:42:57,800 --> 00:43:01,200 Speaker 1: who has the balding up top look and looks significantly 947 00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:04,960 Speaker 1: older than he probably actually is. I imagine him. And yeah, 948 00:43:05,120 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 1: Alex Cruso's twenty five, when he looks like he's literally 949 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:11,520 Speaker 1: like you know one, Um, they do look alike too, Yeah, yeah, 950 00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:13,040 Speaker 1: i'd imagine. I'd imagine the two of them, Like I 951 00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:15,040 Speaker 1: could see them being friends and like hanging out, you know, 952 00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:20,360 Speaker 1: and having having backyards. Two old looking young guys, you know. Basically, 953 00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:23,480 Speaker 1: uh So either anyway, Hunter Infro, he's on the way 954 00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:25,360 Speaker 1: for Wire. You might want to go pick him up. 955 00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:28,040 Speaker 1: This week, Daniel Jones is out there again. That has 956 00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:29,960 Speaker 1: to do with a lot of quarterbacks being out this 957 00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:33,320 Speaker 1: week until Jones is a worthwhile pick up. Jamison Crowder, 958 00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:35,239 Speaker 1: as I think a lot of us expected, kind of 959 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:37,200 Speaker 1: had a nice week. He's about the only jet that 960 00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:40,200 Speaker 1: was really productive on Sunday, and a lot of that 961 00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:42,920 Speaker 1: came like in the first half for Jamison Crowder first 962 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:44,880 Speaker 1: drive he had like four catches for fifty yards and 963 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:48,080 Speaker 1: by the way, Sam Donald, what that? Yeah, I mean 964 00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:52,560 Speaker 1: it's the Dolphins, He's so I missed it. So the 965 00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:57,520 Speaker 1: catch that was at the back of the end zone, Griffin, Griffin, 966 00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:00,520 Speaker 1: how was that? Now? A touchdown? Don't know, You're only 967 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:02,919 Speaker 1: be the wrong person? Was a touchdown? Like I saw 968 00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:04,840 Speaker 1: the replay like four or five, Like what was that? 969 00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:08,200 Speaker 1: Like what happens? Where Like it wasn't a touchdown? Eddie, 970 00:44:08,200 --> 00:44:10,319 Speaker 1: Do you have any idea because I mean that would 971 00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:13,520 Speaker 1: have salvaged his stat line a little bit, but I 972 00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:16,319 Speaker 1: was like, am I missing something? And like like send 973 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:18,040 Speaker 1: me a tweet. No one knows. I don't know what 974 00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:21,480 Speaker 1: which to me, Like if we can't get that on replay, 975 00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:23,400 Speaker 1: then what are we doing? His feet were down? What 976 00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:24,920 Speaker 1: are we doing? His feet were down right, I mean 977 00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:27,040 Speaker 1: his feet were down and it looked like he couldtrol 978 00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:28,600 Speaker 1: the ball. I don't. I don't get it. As the 979 00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:31,040 Speaker 1: season has gone on, I have started to adopt Marcus 980 00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:33,360 Speaker 1: view of just pretty much band replay or make it 981 00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:36,399 Speaker 1: so much freaking faster. It just it just I don't 982 00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:38,960 Speaker 1: get it. It's like we're not We're not doing anything 983 00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:41,640 Speaker 1: except slowing the games down for no apparent reason. If 984 00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 1: we can't get things like that right, then there's just 985 00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:46,080 Speaker 1: no point to it. I could, honestly don't even believe 986 00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:47,279 Speaker 1: that they were taking a look at it was just 987 00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:50,480 Speaker 1: a great touch. It just looked like there was nothing 988 00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:52,560 Speaker 1: to look I'm gonna have to look at it again, Like, 989 00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:55,920 Speaker 1: I don't I didn't see a juggle. I mean, I 990 00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:58,239 Speaker 1: don't know what. I was three thousand miles away in 991 00:44:58,320 --> 00:45:01,480 Speaker 1: Los Angeles and I could tell you what was touchdown whatever. 992 00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:05,320 Speaker 1: That's probably not a good uh, good indictment on it 993 00:45:05,480 --> 00:45:08,799 Speaker 1: is not at all. Let's see other names. Ryan Fitzpatrick, 994 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:10,960 Speaker 1: we've talked about. We talked a little bit about the 995 00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:14,120 Speaker 1: the Dolphins receivers Vante Parker, Preston Williams, and again he's 996 00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:16,160 Speaker 1: getting an m R I this week speaking of Williams. 997 00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:17,600 Speaker 1: So that's just something to keep an eye on. But 998 00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:20,319 Speaker 1: if it's all if it's all good, if he's a go, um, 999 00:45:20,719 --> 00:45:23,000 Speaker 1: you know that offense is starting to kind of roll 1000 00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:24,640 Speaker 1: a little bit, and uh, you know they're at least 1001 00:45:24,640 --> 00:45:26,560 Speaker 1: worth a flex option for you, depending on what your 1002 00:45:26,560 --> 00:45:29,000 Speaker 1: lineup is. Last one Jacob Hollister, who had a pair 1003 00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:32,440 Speaker 1: of touchdowns uh this past week, only thirty seven yards. 1004 00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:35,319 Speaker 1: But we are thirsty for tight ends. He's the new 1005 00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:38,400 Speaker 1: will dis Lee. Maybe not, but man, they're playing the 1006 00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:40,320 Speaker 1: Niners coming up. So I don't know if I necessarily 1007 00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:43,600 Speaker 1: like want to pick him up, but I guess at 1008 00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:47,319 Speaker 1: this point the tight end position is driving me out 1009 00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:49,400 Speaker 1: of my freaking mind every week trying to do this 1010 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:51,839 Speaker 1: for starting and sing because there's you know, there's certain guys. Listen, 1011 00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:53,880 Speaker 1: you're playing Hooper, you can't put him in there, You're 1012 00:45:53,880 --> 00:45:55,359 Speaker 1: playing Waller. You can't put him in there. You can't 1013 00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:57,439 Speaker 1: but Kelsey in there, you know. So there's certain guys 1014 00:45:57,440 --> 00:45:59,600 Speaker 1: it's like it's just too obvious. But the rest of it, 1015 00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:02,040 Speaker 1: it's just a whole Even Mark Andrews, I had him 1016 00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:03,399 Speaker 1: at just a sit last week and and he wasn't 1017 00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:05,440 Speaker 1: this past week and he wasn't any good. But like, 1018 00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:08,160 Speaker 1: no offense came out of nowhere with that freaking large 1019 00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:11,040 Speaker 1: touched on. Even Ka Rudolph scored a touchdown and people 1020 00:46:11,040 --> 00:46:13,560 Speaker 1: aren't playing these guys. I really want to see and 1021 00:46:13,680 --> 00:46:15,520 Speaker 1: and Fells right, a lot of people stream fails. He 1022 00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:19,239 Speaker 1: had one catch. It was a touchdown, so then you 1023 00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:21,239 Speaker 1: know he gave you. He gave you seven points, which 1024 00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:24,440 Speaker 1: is pretty good. But even like you know, Hockinson, he 1025 00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:26,440 Speaker 1: had a good game, his best game since week one, 1026 00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:29,080 Speaker 1: but it was it was, you know, sort of black. 1027 00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:30,840 Speaker 1: You know, it was like it was like, you know, 1028 00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:33,279 Speaker 1: seven or eight points. It was like, okay, you take it. 1029 00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:35,799 Speaker 1: That's how bad tight end is right now. The good news, 1030 00:46:36,960 --> 00:46:39,040 Speaker 1: the good news is win six teams on a by. 1031 00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:42,319 Speaker 1: The only tight end that's regularly getting started that you're 1032 00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:45,000 Speaker 1: losing is probably exaccurates, right, because you're not really I 1033 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:46,800 Speaker 1: mean it's Broncos you're not really starting that. It was 1034 00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:48,880 Speaker 1: good to see him back. I mean you guess maybe 1035 00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:51,680 Speaker 1: Darren Fells with the Texans being out, I mean, tag 1036 00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:53,719 Speaker 1: Wars don't have a tight end. The Patriots don't really 1037 00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:55,560 Speaker 1: have a tight end. I mean, Washington, you're not you know, 1038 00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:58,799 Speaker 1: vergont Dave was even playing like he's hurt. He's been 1039 00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:01,680 Speaker 1: hurt too, so like he's been her got those six 1040 00:47:01,719 --> 00:47:04,279 Speaker 1: teams in, You're like, how do I do? Man? It's 1041 00:47:04,280 --> 00:47:05,719 Speaker 1: just like weekend and week out if you don't have 1042 00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:08,359 Speaker 1: one of those guys that you're starting every single week. 1043 00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:11,880 Speaker 1: I mean, it is, honestly just like throwing darts. I 1044 00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:13,839 Speaker 1: want to have the research guys at one point, maybe 1045 00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:16,120 Speaker 1: maybe towards the end of the season, find out what 1046 00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:19,960 Speaker 1: percentage of the best tight end performances have been wasted, 1047 00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:25,000 Speaker 1: because like, I mean, like who really has started Darren 1048 00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:27,680 Speaker 1: Fells over the last few weeks until this week where 1049 00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:30,320 Speaker 1: he had a touchdown but nothing else. Yeah, so like 1050 00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:33,760 Speaker 1: looking into leagues based on you know, the top ten scores, 1051 00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:36,560 Speaker 1: let's say, and whomever was started less than like fifteen 1052 00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:38,920 Speaker 1: percent of leagues? Bet I bet you a lot of 1053 00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:41,719 Speaker 1: there was a lot of yeah, actually a lot. How 1054 00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:44,759 Speaker 1: many people started a fantas week? I mean how many 1055 00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:48,120 Speaker 1: people knew who Hollister was, right, you know, who weren't 1056 00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:52,880 Speaker 1: in your industry folk. Yeah, I just it's been and 1057 00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:55,600 Speaker 1: it sucks too because like like this season, like in 1058 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:58,879 Speaker 1: the beginning of the season, because there was a lot 1059 00:47:58,960 --> 00:48:01,400 Speaker 1: of like youth, you know, an influx of you was 1060 00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:05,560 Speaker 1: coming into the league, and Hocke was coming into the league. Man, gosh, 1061 00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:08,160 Speaker 1: and I will say this guy's for startingments him this 1062 00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:10,360 Speaker 1: week with six teams on a bye. Just bear with me, 1063 00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:13,719 Speaker 1: all right, because I'm throwing darts left and right at 1064 00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:18,319 Speaker 1: thin positions. Just bear with me. The info is good. 1065 00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:20,839 Speaker 1: Just bear with me real quick. On tight ends, Will 1066 00:48:20,920 --> 00:48:24,080 Speaker 1: Dislie is still the tenth best Fantasy tight ends year 1067 00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:26,759 Speaker 1: and he is basically played in only five games, so 1068 00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:28,640 Speaker 1: he didn't playing like a month, right, Well, he wasn't 1069 00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:33,160 Speaker 1: playing the month. That's where we're at. Man is bad.
