15
00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 1: well last week, didn't it. Charge We'll talk about three

16
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:00,280
Speaker 1: tough questions. You can go three and oor try to

17
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,840
Speaker 1: go three against our panel of experts, and we will

18
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:06,399
Speaker 1: give you nine players upon whom you can take a chance.

19
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 1: These are free agent style players that you can pick

20
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:14,319
Speaker 1: up and start. Now. This show recognizes and celebrates greatness

21
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:19,400
Speaker 1: athletic athletic greatness in the NFL. Players we watch on

22
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 1: Sunday sometimes coaching greatness, fantastic play design, schemes, play calls,

23
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 1: but we also celebrate one other kind of greatness, our

24
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:33,040
Speaker 1: own Scott, who is your premature speculation player? I am

25
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 1: going there with that, that guy that had that toe

26
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 1: tapping first catch in the NFL on the sidelines in

27
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,480
Speaker 1: week one, and then a week or two later you

28
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 1: had that big a r touchdown. They call him maple

29
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 1: Tron on the team because he's from Canada. That's a

30
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 1: jujuice in the Shuster calls him. I'm going to Chase

31
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 1: Claypool six ft four two thirty eight pounds four four

32
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 1: to forty awesome matchup this weekend. People are going to

33
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 1: see it. His snap percentage and routes run increased exponentially

34
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 1: week after week. Come with him. He overtook James Washington

35
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 1: in snaps last week. Uh, Deonte Johnson and Juduice Smith.

36
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 1: Schuster aren't always the picture of health. I think Chase

37
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 1: Claypool shows up this week and I think he's got

38
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 1: a lot of weeks in him this year. Couldn't agree

39
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: more love Chase Claypool like kid is going to be

40
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 1: a ball or already is? We need happy trombones for

41
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 1: him to double peacock. Did he double down on the

42
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 1: take coming to Oh yeah, but he didn't happen take

43
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:36,880
Speaker 1: a chance on me. But he didn't have it in

44
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 1: the notes originally in our in our little slack channel

45
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 1: that he was going to use Chase Claypool and he

46
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 1: backed off of it because he was already used calculation.

47
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 1: It was. It was an awesome call by Scott Fish,

48
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 1: one of the best calls in the history of fantasy football.

49
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 1: Weekly for an immediate really in the history of fantasy football,

50
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 1: immediate pay pay out on premature speculation. You're gonna need

51
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,079
Speaker 1: to wait until the final segment to get this week's

52
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:07,680
Speaker 1: premature speculation. Oh and it's gonna be just as guarantee

53
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 1: everywhere every time, just a different player to catch his yard.

54
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 1: You will find out in short order what we're going

55
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 1: to what we will be predicting for Cleveland and Pittsburgh

56
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,399
Speaker 1: and Chase Claypool for this week. Deante Johnson out, Let's

57
00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 1: turn our attention to the matchups, beginning with Denver taking

58
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 1: on New England. It looks like Drew Lock will be

59
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:32,119
Speaker 1: back at the Helm for the Broncos. So some good

60
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 1: news there, Yeah, because so we were going to have

61
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 1: this game last week, but then I got pushed to

62
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 1: this week. And last week the starters were set to

63
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 1: be Brett Rippon versus Jarrett Stidham, and now we have

64
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 1: Drew Lock versus Cam Newton. That's a lot better. Uh,

65
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 1: Drew Lock expected to return, I'm still going to leave

66
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 1: him on the bench. He only logged thirty three passing

67
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: attempts in his only completed game this season, and the

68
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 1: Patriots are allowing a league low twenty nine point eight

69
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 1: passing attempts per game. In his first game back, you

70
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 1: think Bronco is trying to stick to a run heavy

71
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 1: ball control script in New England. Except Melvin Gordon's status

72
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 1: is seriously in doubt. Was arrested for a d u

73
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 1: I earlier this week and also has been sitting out

74
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:17,040
Speaker 1: with a illness. You can probably see the air quotes

75
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 1: over the radio. Uh, still hung over from Tuesday. Maybe

76
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:27,279
Speaker 1: that puts his status severely in doubt for this game. Um. Also,

77
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 1: Philip Lindsay was set to return last week but then

78
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 1: got an extra week off, so he's a little bit

79
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:35,279
Speaker 1: Healthier and Scott Fish when doing this preview last week,

80
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 1: this stat Gordon has eighteen touches in three games this year,

81
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:42,839
Speaker 1: all three running backs to top fourteen touches. Also topped

82
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:46,040
Speaker 1: eighty total yards against the Patriots. But there seems to

83
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:47,920
Speaker 1: be no way for Gordon to get to the eighteen

84
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 1: touch mark with all these things working against him. So

85
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,799
Speaker 1: I'm giving him a see if if Melvin Gordon is inactive,

86
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 1: I'm giving Philip Lindsay the sea um. That's it on

87
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,719
Speaker 1: the running game, how about the passing game? Jerry Judy,

88
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 1: Tim Patrick, Noah Fantiffy is able to go. They're all

89
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 1: on the bench, though fantas questionable with an ankle injury

90
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,600
Speaker 1: and still may not go at the extra week arrest. Also,

91
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 1: kJ Hammler's in the same boat with a hamstring, although

92
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 1: he's more doubtful than questionable. Uh. Jerry Judy has hit

93
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 1: the fifty yard mark in every game, and Tim Patrick

94
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 1: sure looked good against the Jets. But Stephan Gilmour isn't

95
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 1: on the Jets and he returns to the lineup for

96
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 1: the Pats. The Pats are middle of the pack against whiteouts,

97
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,799
Speaker 1: allowing about thirteen catches and a hundred and seventy yards

98
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,559
Speaker 1: per game. But consider that this offense is going about

99
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 1: ten different directions right now, I'd leave all the Broncos

100
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 1: you can on the bench on the Patriot side. Cam

101
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 1: gets an a. This could be run of the rare

102
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:45,359
Speaker 1: Cam passing masterpieces, as the Broncos are allowing the second

103
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,960
Speaker 1: most passing attempts in the league this season, almost forty

104
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,720
Speaker 1: two per game, and in five of the six games,

105
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:52,919
Speaker 1: five of the last six games in which Cam has

106
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 1: thrown the ball forty one times, he's topped three hundred

107
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 1: yards and thrown for multiple scores and five of those six, man,

108
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,720
Speaker 1: it's hard of fine times when you can trust Cam

109
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 1: Newton's arm. Yeah, but hey, he was just on the

110
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 1: COVID list. Maybe his lungs aren't quite right. Maybe he

111
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 1: just needs to sit back in the pocket and chuck

112
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,719
Speaker 1: a few this week. And and Denver is actually pretty

113
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 1: good against the run um. But let's talk about the

114
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 1: receivers before we get there. Julian Edelman, I'm giving a

115
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,440
Speaker 1: b Nikil Harry a see. Every slot receiver to face

116
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 1: the Broncos this year has caught at least five receptions.

117
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,800
Speaker 1: Crowder and Godwin each had good fantasy days against this defense.

118
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: And the good news is the Broncos are giving up

119
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,480
Speaker 1: the most receptions per game to the wide receiver and

120
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 1: wide receivers at sixteen point eight this year. Uh, that

121
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 1: puts Harry in play too. Now the running backs Damien Harris,

122
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 1: James White, Rex Burkhead, I don't think you can start

123
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 1: any of them unless there's an angle, and the angle

124
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 1: isn't really there for this one. The broncos one defensive

125
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 1: strength maybe against the running back. They're only allowing eighty

126
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,599
Speaker 1: five rushing yards per game to opposing backs and just

127
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:58,280
Speaker 1: one score through four games. And through the air it's

128
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,039
Speaker 1: not much better, only four reception for twenty six yards

129
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 1: per game. They're all on the bench, and including James White,

130
00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 1: and including James receiving angle, there's just Rex Burke. Hads

131
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 1: gonna eat a few of those receptions. I just don't

132
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 1: think there's enough here to give him a confidence starting grade.

133
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 1: I don't know. I think PPR leagues, you can kind

134
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 1: of always start James White. You get your five six receptions,

135
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 1: your seven targets, your fifty yards. Broncos are allowing a

136
00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 1: lot less than that, though. Church Let's see how it goes.

137
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 1: He let's see Cincinnati takes on Indianapolis. Brian For Cincinnati,

138
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 1: Joe Mixon has been a massive frustration for fantasy owners,

139
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 1: and here comes a challenging matchup. Yeah, Mixing has been frustrating,

140
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 1: but still probably the safest volume play out there has

141
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 1: handled since he's running back touches over the last three weeks.

142
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: But like you said, charge, the matchups have just been

143
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 1: brutal all the year outside Relaxonville for Mixing, and that

144
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 1: continues with the Colts this week. India is not allowed

145
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 1: to starting running back to top seventy two rushing yards

146
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 1: and only one back has scored on the ground all season.

147
00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: Butt Mixing has twelve catches over his last two games,

148
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 1: and opposed running backs are averaging five receptions per game

149
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 1: against the Colts over their last three. So you gotta

150
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 1: give him Mixing a sort of safe be here. You're

151
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 1: not benching him, that's for sure. Definitely not benching Tyler Boyd.

152
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 1: Gonna give him a b top ten and targets among

153
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 1: wide receivers, and that's not going to change anytime soon.

154
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 1: The Colts are a good aren't a great matchup for whiteouts,

155
00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 1: but slot receivers have seen the most success against them.

156
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry four catches for eight eight yards, Bractson Barrios

157
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 1: four for sixty four and a touchdown, Keelan Cole five

158
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,679
Speaker 1: for forty seven in a touchdown. So Boyd is a safe.

159
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 1: B who is not safe is a J. Green. Let's

160
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 1: get this out of the way. He's on the bench,

161
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 1: left last week with a hamstring injury. Just probably just

162
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 1: drop you probably can sabotage drop him at this point,

163
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,559
Speaker 1: not even a sabotage at this point. Nobody's going to

164
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,439
Speaker 1: pick up here, right. I might stille still love a j.

165
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:48,839
Speaker 1: But anyway, it's so sad. Anyway you want to trade

166
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 1: for him in the Empire League, Brian now exactly full

167
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 1: on tanking man, Well maybe I do. Anyway, te Higgins

168
00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 1: can say that you're tanking. You just have to pretend

169
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 1: you declared tankruptcy. He has to pretend he's I won

170
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 1: five yes, by the way, declaring tankruptcy. That that that's

171
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 1: got something. That's anyway, Uh, te Higgins gonna give him

172
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: a ce. The Colts have allowed the fifth fewest receptions

173
00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,840
Speaker 1: to wide receivers, but these they've allowed six touchdowns to

174
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 1: wide receivers, so if you're desperate, I will give t

175
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:24,720
Speaker 1: a C. Drew sample. Though on the bench of posting

176
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:26,720
Speaker 1: tight ends are averaging three point four catches in twenty

177
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,359
Speaker 1: seven yards per game against the Colts was zero touchdowns

178
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 1: bench for sample, and also a bench for Joe Burrow.

179
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 1: Colts allowing less than eighteen points per game. That's second

180
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,319
Speaker 1: best in the league. The Bengals offensive line is one

181
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 1: of the two worst in the league. The Colts have

182
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 1: a top five pass rush. Burrow is actually second in

183
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 1: end zone throws, but only has converted three of those

184
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 1: to touchdowns. That's not all his fault, but yeah, just

185
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:50,080
Speaker 1: Burrow on the bench this week. Sadly, if you're the

186
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 1: Bengals this next draft, all offensive line, all the time,

187
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 1: and I know they've already put a bunch of picks

188
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 1: into the offensive line. They need more. Over to the

189
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 1: Colts side, Jonathan Taylor, I'm giving him an aid. I'm

190
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 1: willing the monster breakout game here. Opposing running backs are

191
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,079
Speaker 1: averaging a hundred and fifty plus combo yards per game

192
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 1: against the Bengals, who just lost another defensive player to

193
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 1: I R defensive ends Sam Hubbard defensive tackle DJ Reader

194
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 1: might not play in this game. Volume has been an

195
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 1: issue for Taylor, but he has the fifth most red

196
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 1: zone carries, fourth most goal line carries, and has scored

197
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 1: in three of the last four games. I'm liking him

198
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 1: here in a suspected blowout for the Colts. T Y

199
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 1: Hilton Forest still gets a see though did see seven

200
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 1: targets last week. But the problem is those targets are

201
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,440
Speaker 1: coming from Philip Rivers. We'll talk about him in a second.

202
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:39,320
Speaker 1: The Bengals have actually played wide receivers kind of tough

203
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,440
Speaker 1: they have, but no one. No one has topped hundred

204
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 1: yards against him, but opposing number ones have had nice

205
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 1: days against since Odell Beckham four catches seventy four yards

206
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 1: in touchdown, Greg Ward at the time the number one

207
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,760
Speaker 1: receiver or Billy eight for seventy two and one. DJ

208
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 1: Charks scored twice. Marquis Brown seventy seven yards in touchdown

209
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,640
Speaker 1: last week. So I'm giving Hilton a see and Philip

210
00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:01,680
Speaker 1: Rivers still on the bench since he's bottom tenant opponent

211
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:05,000
Speaker 1: passing play percentage UH teams just passing fifty pcent of

212
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 1: the time against them, And if you've watched him play,

213
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,680
Speaker 1: that's all you need to know. Yeah, for sure, so bad.

214
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 1: It looks it does. It looks bad, looks cooked cooked.

215
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 1: Baltimore is taking on Philadelphia will start on the Baltimore side.

216
00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,080
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson's an obviously, and I'm not going to spend

217
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 1: a lot more time on that, although we'll note that

218
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 1: the Baltimore offense really hasn't seemingly hit its rhythm quite

219
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:30,320
Speaker 1: yet where it's been really explosive, although a good game

220
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 1: last week, the explosion could be coming here. Mark Andrews

221
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 1: also gets an A. The Eagles are one of four

222
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 1: teams to allow at least five touchdowns to tight ends,

223
00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 1: and the very comparable George Kittle just shredded them for

224
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 1: fifteen catches, three yards and a touchdown last week. Mark

225
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:47,679
Speaker 1: Chi's Brown gets a c A grade here. The Eagles

226
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 1: secondaries yielded the six most fantasy points to opposing receivers,

227
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 1: and Brown has notched at least seventy seven yards in

228
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 1: three of their first five games. He'll get shadow covered

229
00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:58,160
Speaker 1: from Darius Slay, which worries me, and that's part of

230
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 1: why he's only a C grade here. Through five games,

231
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 1: Darius Slay has yet to allow a score or more

232
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 1: than sixty six yards in his coverage in any game.

233
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 1: So just the C grade from Mark keys Brown. And

234
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,480
Speaker 1: here's the real frustration point with the Ravens. It's the

235
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 1: running backs and they're all on the bench. It's come

236
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 1: to this. You could try mark Ingram, but be aware

237
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 1: that you're getting a holy touchdown dependent back with mark

238
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 1: Ingram at this point. He just doesn't carry the ball enough.

239
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 1: Now he is the only back who's regularly getting red

240
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:30,160
Speaker 1: zone carries. So again, you could roll the dice on

241
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 1: a touchdown here, but that's what you're doing with mark Ingram.

242
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 1: If he doesn't score, he's gonna hurt your team. He's

243
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: Jordan Howard. Now he is Jordan Howard. Only Darryl Henderson

244
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 1: has top fifty four rushing yards against Philadelphia this season.

245
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 1: It's a tough matchup anyway. Only four backs have beaten

246
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 1: them for more more than sixty six yards in their

247
00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 1: last twenty four outings. So it's hard to run on

248
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,200
Speaker 1: the Eagles anyway. So all the all the all of

249
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,679
Speaker 1: the Baltimore running backs are on the bench. The rushing

250
00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 1: yards are gonna come through Lamar Jackson. Now let's get

251
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 1: to the Philly c Where is it? It is a

252
00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 1: disaster great offensive line. The latest loss left tackle Lane

253
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:10,960
Speaker 1: Johnson ruled out, and then on Friday important utility guard

254
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 1: who had been filling in Matt Pryor got put on

255
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 1: the COVID list. It's just been horrible for this offensive

256
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:21,320
Speaker 1: line that will have one of five starters in it.

257
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,679
Speaker 1: It's gone to the point where other NFC teams are

258
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,520
Speaker 1: gonna start jockeying for position to play the NFC East.

259
00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 1: Maybe in the playoffs. Everybody's gonna try to be the

260
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:34,760
Speaker 1: five seed exactly. Let's talk about some of the few

261
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,960
Speaker 1: players that I think you can find a way to start,

262
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 1: and it certainly is in Carson Wentz, who's on the

263
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,880
Speaker 1: on the bench. His protection has been horrible, his receivers

264
00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 1: are free agent quality, his running game takes no heat

265
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 1: off him, and he's playing badly. And then there's the

266
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 1: Baltimore defense. So all of that together, Carson Wentz is

267
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 1: on the bench, the old nut. I'm not starting any

268
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:56,880
Speaker 1: of his receivers, including last week's star Travis Fulgum. They're

269
00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 1: all out for this week against the Steelers, sorry against

270
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 1: against Baltimore. And then the one guy you you may

271
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,040
Speaker 1: want to play is Zach Ertz. Now, I know zach

272
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 1: Ertz has been a disaster, but get this, the one

273
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 1: weakness with Baltimore is the tight end position. They've given

274
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 1: up good fantasy games already this year to David and Joku,

275
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 1: Jordan's Aikens, Darren Fells, and of course Travis Kelsey. Arch

276
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 1: is better than three of those four guys, and if

277
00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 1: they're gonna get anything done through the air, it'll go

278
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,680
Speaker 1: through zach ert The one difference is is all those

279
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:34,480
Speaker 1: teams that you mentioned have wide receivers. That's a good point,

280
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: you know, and er Erch is gonna have to block

281
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,160
Speaker 1: as well in this game. So I'm not expecting a

282
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:42,960
Speaker 1: throwback to the great days of zach Ertz. But I

283
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 1: am giving him a C grade in this game. Miles Sanders.

284
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 1: I almost put him on the bench, and it's just

285
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 1: the C grade because of the state of the offensive

286
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 1: line so bad last week. He you probably saw his

287
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 1: highlights seventy four yard touchdown run. What you didn't see

288
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 1: if you didn't watch the game, or his other ten

289
00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 1: rush is for six yards. And you know, it's not

290
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 1: really fair to just throw out his one good play.

291
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 1: But if he didn't make that one good play, it

292
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 1: would have been a disaster game for him, and he

293
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 1: could have another disaster one against a good Ravens team

294
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 1: allowing the ninth fewest rushing yards in the NFL. When

295
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 1: we come back take a chance on Me, these are

296
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 1: nine players not normally in your starting lineup. You'll be

297
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 1: able to pick many of these players up off the

298
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 1: waiver wire in this a tricky by week. When we

299
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 1: come back to Fantasy Football Weekly, welcome back to a

300
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 1: royalty free version of take a chance on me. We

301
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 1: will give you three quarterbacks, three running backs, and three receivers,

302
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 1: many of whom are available off the aver wire, that

303
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 1: you can pick up and start this week, beginning with

304
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 1: the quarterback position and Brian Johnson. Not the first time

305
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 1: I'm going to recommend Gardner Minshew this time. At last

306
00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,240
Speaker 1: time I did that was probably two weeks ago, three

307
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,000
Speaker 1: weeks ago. But anyway, Minshew at home against the Lions,

308
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 1: who have allowed multiple passing touchdowns in every game, including

309
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:29,400
Speaker 1: three two even said on it right now, look at

310
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:34,080
Speaker 1: you go, mind melding. Yes, the Lions might get cornerback

311
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 1: Desmond Trufont back in uniform, but he is still iffy

312
00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 1: with the growing injury Detroit might be without slot corner

313
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 1: Darryl Roberts as well, And yes, d J. Chark will

314
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 1: probably miss this game. But I'm still rolling out Gardner Minshew,

315
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 1: who can move mobile quarterback to lake. Sad Trombonesy and

316
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,400
Speaker 1: Kyle Allen combined for fifty five rushing yards and a

317
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 1: touchdown and just eight carries against Detroit. Minsho's gonna throw

318
00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 1: for at LEAs two touchdowns in the scheme. Really, I

319
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 1: should have been playing happy he played the Lions. He

320
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:06,159
Speaker 1: three three touchdowns in that game. If I'm going to

321
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:10,160
Speaker 1: extrapolate Sad Trombone Ski SATs, it's at least seven touchdowns

322
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:15,520
Speaker 1: from Minshew in this game. At the talent extrapolator, exactly,

323
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:22,399
Speaker 1: we need a talent extrapolator sound bite. Bang, it's not

324
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:27,840
Speaker 1: the art ark. No, that's not a talent extrapolating sound whatsoever?

325
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:32,560
Speaker 1: That you found an art fork? Yeah, like week Giant

326
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 1: Cricket found. Well, Brianne found what of course she did. Honestly,

327
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:38,640
Speaker 1: it could be anything. She says it's an art ark.

328
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:42,760
Speaker 1: I don't know. She's just whistling and right, who knows.

329
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 1: We're just trusting Brianna. Give me a platypus so I

330
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 1: don't know. That sounds like a ring tone that no

331
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:52,280
Speaker 1: one wants to use on the iPhone. That's that's the

332
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 1: ring tone when you're bitter ex girlfriend calls you. I

333
00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:59,639
Speaker 1: would imagine more to something like a hard yard R

334
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 1: says its own name. It's like Scooby doo. I'm pretty

335
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 1: sure we're off the rails. Okay, anyway, let's get back

336
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 1: to the take a chance and me quarterbacks Matt Ryan

337
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:17,400
Speaker 1: Tannehill is might take a chance on me QB. So far,

338
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:23,000
Speaker 1: through four games, Tannel has their own touchdown passes nine times,

339
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:28,520
Speaker 1: nine times nine He's only thrown one interception in that span.

340
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 1: So far through five games, the Texans have you given

341
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:38,680
Speaker 1: up a touchdown pass nine times? What we're really off

342
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 1: the rails? The Texans have yet to force an interception

343
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:44,600
Speaker 1: this year. Uh In their two meetings last year, he

344
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 1: threw from multiple scores in both games and added a

345
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,920
Speaker 1: rushing touchdown. This is a good matchup for Tannehill. Andy

346
00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 1: Dalton will drop back to pass. He looks left, there's

347
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 1: Amari Cooper. He looks right, there's Michael Gallup. Crossing across

348
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 1: the middle of the field. Here's CD Lamb or dump

349
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,240
Speaker 1: off to Dalton Schultz or coming out of the backfield.

350
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:06,880
Speaker 1: One of the best past catching running backs Ezekiel elliott

351
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:09,560
Speaker 1: I thought you were gonna say Tony Pollard and or

352
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:14,160
Speaker 1: Tony Pollard Adalton to a Dalton connection. They will stretch

353
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 1: a thin secondary for at the Arizona that is outmatched

354
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 1: at every spot. And if you're under the misconception that

355
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:25,439
Speaker 1: Patrick Peterson is still a shutdown cornerback. Closier, clamshell, flip phone,

356
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 1: go to the shelf, pick up a world book, Encyclopedia,

357
00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:32,120
Speaker 1: leave through the pages until you get to you will

358
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 1: not see a picture. Patrick Peterson, in particular, Dallas is

359
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:38,800
Speaker 1: most reliable receiver. Ceedee Lamb's got an awesome matchup in

360
00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,320
Speaker 1: the slot. Every quarterback to face the Cardinals has thrown

361
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:43,440
Speaker 1: a touchdown. Most of them have thrown more than one.

362
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,199
Speaker 1: Let's go to the running back position, Brian Uh, we

363
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 1: didn't think it would be this deep at this point,

364
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,560
Speaker 1: but DeAndre Swift is a deep pull but I'm going there.

365
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 1: He's at at Jacksonville. Uh not getting medin carries. DeAndre

366
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 1: Swift is, but he has been active in the passing

367
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:58,440
Speaker 1: game at least four catches and two of his last

368
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,679
Speaker 1: three games with the received touchdown during that span, and

369
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:03,879
Speaker 1: he's been seeing usage as a slot receiver and that

370
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:07,320
Speaker 1: should ramp up um and Swift ranks third among all

371
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 1: running backs and yards per route run on non screenplays,

372
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:15,160
Speaker 1: only behind Alvin Kamara and Green Bay's Aaron Jones. Opposing

373
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 1: running backs are averaging more than six catches per game

374
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:21,200
Speaker 1: against the Jags, who are also yielding the second most

375
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 1: red zone targets to running backs and elite g p

376
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:28,800
Speaker 1: P play in daily is DeAndre Swift. I got Leonard

377
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 1: four Net, who did not practice at all in Week

378
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:33,879
Speaker 1: five leading up to their Thursday night game against the Bears.

379
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 1: He was active in that game though, and he played

380
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:39,359
Speaker 1: one snap now this week, one whole snap. Hey, they

381
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,679
Speaker 1: put him on the field. That means something, right, It

382
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 1: means a little bit of health. Um. This week he's

383
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 1: been limited and practice still at that ankle injury, but

384
00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,680
Speaker 1: it's all but assumed he's gonna play. And because we've

385
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 1: seen two straight weeks of one yard output from Ronald Jones,

386
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 1: it's time for Bruce arians to be Bruce arians, mess

387
00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,119
Speaker 1: with our minds and put four Net up to for

388
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:00,919
Speaker 1: another big game for an has caught seven of his

389
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,479
Speaker 1: eight targets out of the backfield this year, and this

390
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 1: week he gets a Packers team that is allowing almost

391
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 1: eight catches and seventy yards per game to opposing backs

392
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 1: out of the backfield. If this game turns into a

393
00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,359
Speaker 1: shootout and Brady is forced to throw, it seems like

394
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:15,080
Speaker 1: the Bucks trust for Net to be the back on

395
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 1: the field to help protect Brady and passing situations and

396
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:19,760
Speaker 1: get a few dump offs here and there. So I

397
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:21,959
Speaker 1: like him to be the top scoring back in Tampa

398
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 1: this week. I'm gonna build off of Brian's case for

399
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 1: a Lions running back, and that's Adrian Peterson. His usage

400
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,440
Speaker 1: is tied directly to the team's success. When the Lions

401
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,879
Speaker 1: are winning, he gets used. When they're louing losing, he

402
00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 1: does not. He gets double the amount of snaps when

403
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:42,240
Speaker 1: the Lions are leading. That brings in this week's opponent

404
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,400
Speaker 1: for Adrian Peterson the Jaguars, who have held a lead

405
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:50,919
Speaker 1: for eight percent of their plays this year. That's it.

406
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,880
Speaker 1: So Lions get out to a lead, they run Adrian Peterson,

407
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:57,960
Speaker 1: you get victory. It's rare that we see competing take

408
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 1: a chance on me runners that they are complementary. Take

409
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:05,040
Speaker 1: their complementary. Take a chance on me players, Let's go

410
00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:08,960
Speaker 1: to the receivers. Bryan, call me coronavirus because I'm staying

411
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:12,200
Speaker 1: in Florida. Not I'm not going anywhere with this Jacksonville

412
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,560
Speaker 1: Detroit matchup. I got Keelan Cole of the Jaguars going

413
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,800
Speaker 1: up against the Lions. Cole has at least five targets

414
00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,080
Speaker 1: in every game and should see an increase with d J.

415
00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:21,919
Speaker 1: Chark very iffy to play in this one. Cole has

416
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 1: also scored in three of five games. The Lions have

417
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:28,639
Speaker 1: yielded the fourth most red zone touches to wide receivers.

418
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,080
Speaker 1: And then when we played in four games Detroit. By

419
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:33,680
Speaker 1: the way, and mentioned earlier that Detroit could be without

420
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 1: slot corner Darryl Roberts, but he wasn't much help against

421
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 1: the I guess comparable Andy Isabella, who torched Roberts for

422
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:43,640
Speaker 1: a hundred plus yards and two touchdowns. Cole has the

423
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:47,240
Speaker 1: same upside, all right, Matt, I've got Brandon Cooks, and

424
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:51,359
Speaker 1: according to Josh Hermsmeyer of Established the Run, Cooks is

425
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:54,400
Speaker 1: leading the team with twenty eight percent of the Texans

426
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,080
Speaker 1: are yards. It just hasn't amounted to the big play

427
00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 1: as of yet, well until last week. I gain he

428
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:03,040
Speaker 1: had a touchdown. Last week. He's averaging almost seven targets

429
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 1: per game, and this week he gets the Titans defense

430
00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:08,119
Speaker 1: that's allowing sixteen catches in a hundred ninety seven yards

431
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:10,640
Speaker 1: per game to the wide receiver position. So even after

432
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:12,919
Speaker 1: will Fuller gets his six for eight and a score,

433
00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:17,359
Speaker 1: there's enough left for Cooks. Well, I'm going we're going

434
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 1: all just piggybacking off of Brian. I have another Jaguars receiver,

435
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,640
Speaker 1: lavish Ka Chenalt. I look, as you mentioned, d J. Chark,

436
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 1: not gonna go in there by the way I put

437
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:33,840
Speaker 1: out my guys first, where is Chris Conley? Though normally

438
00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 1: this is you watch It's gonna be a christ right here.

439
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 1: We've done it now we have I love chin Alt,

440
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,240
Speaker 1: though he was already trending towards more and more usage,

441
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:45,240
Speaker 1: with rising targets and receptions in every game in Nault's

442
00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:48,399
Speaker 1: last two games eighty six yards and seventy nine yards.

443
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 1: And even with the bye week, the Lions are gonna

444
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:54,359
Speaker 1: be without Desmond Trufant, Justin Coleman Praying playing predominantly from

445
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:57,960
Speaker 1: the right side, Laviska. Shealt will face rookie Jeff Okuda,

446
00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:01,200
Speaker 1: who has failed his trial by are ranking one hundred

447
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:06,880
Speaker 1: fifteenth among cornerbacks. By is an offensive lineman's name too,

448
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,159
Speaker 1: isn't it? But that's not a cornerback. Yeah, I know

449
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:13,640
Speaker 1: he starts, so we're starting. Carry on Johnson and Chris. Yeah,

450
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,720
Speaker 1: here's how he watched. Who wants to be a millionaire?

451
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 1: Let's get back to some matchups, including Houston taking well,

452
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 1: they we're just talking about Houston and Tennessee. Sure, let's

453
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 1: go to the Let's go to the Houston side. I

454
00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:25,959
Speaker 1: liked to Shawn Watson a lot in this game. How

455
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:27,920
Speaker 1: do you feel? Yeah? Game and A grade. Watson has

456
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,040
Speaker 1: four career games against the Titans and four career multi

457
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,440
Speaker 1: touchdown passing days. He's also added a rushing touchdown and

458
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,600
Speaker 1: two of his four meetings with the Titans, so that's good.

459
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:38,800
Speaker 1: He shouldn't fear them this year either, as the Titans

460
00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 1: are allowing to seventy three and two to opposing ball

461
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:45,200
Speaker 1: schuckers this year. Will Fuller, his favorite wide receiver, gets

462
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:49,000
Speaker 1: an A, has played the Titans five times and somewhat expectedly,

463
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,680
Speaker 1: has scored four touchdowns against them because when Will pull

464
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 1: Fuller plays, he usually scores. We established that the Titans

465
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:57,320
Speaker 1: are giving up a lot through the air, but most

466
00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:59,760
Speaker 1: of that is going to the wide receiver position seven

467
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:02,639
Speaker 1: for on seventy five to Justin Jefferson and a hundred

468
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:05,040
Speaker 1: and six yards to Steph Digs in the last two games.

469
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,000
Speaker 1: That's why Brandon Cooks was also might take a chance

470
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 1: on me wide receiver. I am going to leave Randall

471
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,560
Speaker 1: Cobb on the bench though, same with Jordan Aikins, who's

472
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:16,159
Speaker 1: still dealing with the concussion in Week four. Lastly, on

473
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,680
Speaker 1: the Houston side, David Johnson, I'm giving him a B grade,

474
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:21,920
Speaker 1: and I don't want to pretend like David Johnson is

475
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:24,160
Speaker 1: good anymore. No, thank you, because I'm tired of people

476
00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:26,320
Speaker 1: trying to tell me that David Johnson is a great back.

477
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:28,919
Speaker 1: He's not like what he was. He's taking high teams

478
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:31,240
Speaker 1: worth of workload and turning it into like sixty yards

479
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:34,920
Speaker 1: per game. But fortunately the Titans run defense has been

480
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:36,920
Speaker 1: gouged to the tune of a hundred and twenty four

481
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,960
Speaker 1: yards per game to opposing backs. That includes five point

482
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,560
Speaker 1: six yards per carry on the season. And if you

483
00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,639
Speaker 1: can't start David Johnson this week. He does not deserve

484
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:49,320
Speaker 1: to be on your roster. Agreed. On the other side,

485
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:52,320
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry is this week's fantasy art Vark. Oh, you

486
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:57,399
Speaker 1: don't say last week's fantasy art Vark broke his ankle severely,

487
00:25:57,760 --> 00:25:59,880
Speaker 1: so I hope this isn't the curse of the yard mark.

488
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:02,919
Speaker 1: So he gets the double A grade. Last time he

489
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:06,200
Speaker 1: faced the Texans two eleven yards and three scores, and

490
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:09,240
Speaker 1: the Texans are allowing five point two yards per carry.

491
00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:11,399
Speaker 1: Ryan Tanhill was of course might take a chance and

492
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:14,119
Speaker 1: me quarterback. Uh. The other two guys, we need to

493
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 1: mention A. J. Brown. I'm giving him a B grade.

494
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,160
Speaker 1: Just came off the injury report the game a little

495
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,360
Speaker 1: extra rest this week after playing on Tuesday. The Texans

496
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,400
Speaker 1: allowed big days to both Adam Theelan and Justin Jefferson,

497
00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:27,760
Speaker 1: but have basically kept the other wide receivers in check

498
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:30,640
Speaker 1: this year. However, they do give up over a touchdown

499
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,400
Speaker 1: per game to the position, and with Corey Davis still

500
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,000
Speaker 1: on the COVID list as of right now, it's likely

501
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,199
Speaker 1: Brown who sees the additional targets, and Brown did score

502
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 1: in both meetings last year and top two hundred yards

503
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:45,240
Speaker 1: in each of the meetings. Finally, John U. Smith. Yes,

504
00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 1: I didn't even write anything down for John NU Smith.

505
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,119
Speaker 1: I just wrote a grade charge. Do you want to

506
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,960
Speaker 1: take some time to talk about John Why? Yes, I would.

507
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, I love to talk about

508
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:58,120
Speaker 1: Johnny Smith, who is the number one the tight end

509
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:01,640
Speaker 1: in Fantasy points per game. John U. Smith, who's number

510
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,480
Speaker 1: two in yards after the catch among tight ends. John U. Smith,

511
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:07,800
Speaker 1: who's Pro Football focus is highest rated tight end, John

512
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,800
Speaker 1: new Smith. It's all, it's all come up, John U. Smith.

513
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:13,680
Speaker 1: I'm not going to do any John new Smith matchups

514
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:15,119
Speaker 1: the rest of the year. I'm just going to be

515
00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 1: like and and Church, go yeah and don't tap me.

516
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:19,679
Speaker 1: I could break it down much further than that, but

517
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:22,320
Speaker 1: at this point, all you have to say is John U.

518
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:26,480
Speaker 1: Smith and obvious a grade. There's nothing we want the

519
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:29,119
Speaker 1: best tight end in football. There's nothing we would say

520
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:33,080
Speaker 1: that would stop you from starting him anyway, powering teams

521
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:38,080
Speaker 1: through and into the fantasy playoffs. John U. Smith. When

522
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:42,399
Speaker 1: we come back, we will talk about Washington taking on

523
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:44,360
Speaker 1: the Giants. Do we get a bounce back game from

524
00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:46,359
Speaker 1: a Washington offense and only put up one hundred and

525
00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:50,080
Speaker 1: eight yards in a game. Terry, What happened to Terry McClaren.

526
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:52,680
Speaker 1: What could he come back in this one? We'll tell

527
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:54,440
Speaker 1: you when when we come back. Also a little later

528
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 1: in the show, three tough questions and premature speculation. If

529
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:00,359
Speaker 1: you have not yet tried the freshest new way to

530
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 1: play fantasy football, Guillotine leagues dot com, new league's being

531
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 1: created almost every day at guillotine leagues dot com. Every week,

532
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:11,320
Speaker 1: the low scoring team gets chopped and all their players

533
00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 1: go to the waiver wire, where all the remaining teams

534
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:17,199
Speaker 1: get to feast on those players. All you have to

535
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,960
Speaker 1: do is be the last man stand at guilloteen leagues

536
00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 1: dot com. Welcome back to Fantasy Football Weekly. Paul Charchie

537
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,280
Speaker 1: and Brian Johnson and Matt Harrison with you. We returned

538
00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 1: to matchups Detroit taking on Jacksonville. We've already talked about

539
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 1: most of the Detroit notables in this game, except and

540
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:57,960
Speaker 1: the Jacksonville. Yeah, and Jacksonville, with the exception of my

541
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:04,959
Speaker 1: highest rated wide receiver of the week, Kenny Golliday. But

542
00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:10,240
Speaker 1: are we allowed to use Fonzie? Like somebody's gonna threaten this?

543
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 1: Henry Winkler on the studios really nice. But anyway, the

544
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:20,560
Speaker 1: fantasy Fonzie for Kenny Golladay Jacksonville. By the way, Kenny

545
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 1: Gollady like a hundred and eighty percent healthy right now,

546
00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:26,120
Speaker 1: which he's like the healthiest he's ever been. Jacksonville has

547
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,320
Speaker 1: surrendered at least one wide receiver score in three of

548
00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:31,120
Speaker 1: their past four games. Golliday should see plenty of rookie

549
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:36,000
Speaker 1: corner seventh round rookie corner Chris Claybrooks, who was flamed

550
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 1: by Brandon Cooks by the way, Matt, Yeah, Cooks have

551
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:39,960
Speaker 1: like a hundred fifty yards and the touchdown you really

552
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 1: really poop pood on him. But anyway, Cooks conceded two

553
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:47,400
Speaker 1: inches to clay Brooks. Right, Dolliday has five inches and

554
00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:51,480
Speaker 1: forty pounds on clay Brooks. So the Fonzie for Galladay

555
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:53,640
Speaker 1: easy a. I'm gonna give Marvin Jones to see. The

556
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:55,640
Speaker 1: Jags are one of nine teams to allow least eight

557
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 1: hundred fifty yards to wide receivers. That's a hundred and

558
00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 1: seventy yards a game. Yeah, Jones had one catch on

559
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 1: two targets last week, putting his three games prior he

560
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 1: topped fifty yards or scored a touchdown, so he gets

561
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 1: to see I think he's a B. I'd like I

562
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:10,360
Speaker 1: like him. I like Danny Amendola too so and I

563
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:14,200
Speaker 1: like DeAndre Swift. So see for Jones, see for Almondola.

564
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:17,600
Speaker 1: Slot receivers at Farewell against Jacksonville easily have cleared ten

565
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:21,080
Speaker 1: plus PPR points. Paris Campbell, Adam Humphreys, Tyler Boyd, Randall Cobb,

566
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:23,480
Speaker 1: all of them and T. J. Hockenson can give him

567
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:27,320
Speaker 1: a B. Positive is how I feel about this matchup.

568
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:30,680
Speaker 1: Hockinson has at least top fifty yards and door scored

569
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: a touchdown in every game. The Jaguars have allowed the

570
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:35,480
Speaker 1: third most yards to tight ends and have also allowed

571
00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:37,160
Speaker 1: at least one scored to the position in three of

572
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:40,600
Speaker 1: their last four games. So a B for t. J. Hockenson.

573
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:43,680
Speaker 1: Matt Stafford gets an easy A here to every quarterback

574
00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:46,080
Speaker 1: face the Jags has thrown for three yards and oring

575
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:49,880
Speaker 1: multiple touchdowns. Everyone is healthy for the Lions. Stafford is

576
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:52,800
Speaker 1: on point right now, multiple multiple multiple touchdowns and three

577
00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 1: or four games and six of the past seven going

578
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 1: back to last year and then to the running backs charge,

579
00:30:57,640 --> 00:30:59,680
Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson was your take a chance. Let me running

580
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,720
Speaker 1: back DeAndre Swift was mine. Uh, they both should produce

581
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 1: and what should be a shootout here. We'll take the

582
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,160
Speaker 1: rushing yards, you take the passing yards. Deal all right

583
00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 1: over to the Jacksonville side. Not a lot to talk

584
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:12,520
Speaker 1: about here. James Robinson does get to be Aaron Jones.

585
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,640
Speaker 1: Kind of inflated the opposing running back numbers against Detroit,

586
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,760
Speaker 1: but even David Montgomery and Kenyan Drake average more than

587
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:22,120
Speaker 1: five yards per carry against Detroit. The Saints just total

588
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:24,720
Speaker 1: three rushing touchdowns against them. By the way, I was

589
00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 1: off last week. Lottavism had two touchdowns and might take

590
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 1: a chance on me running back in a week four.

591
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:32,520
Speaker 1: By the way, so from two weeks ago, Well I

592
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:34,880
Speaker 1: wasn't here last week. What else am I supposed to do? Anyway?

593
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:38,400
Speaker 1: J rob should bounce back five catches over his last

594
00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 1: three games. He is, so I don't need this, thank you.

595
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 1: It's just obvious. Two touchdowns from a running back, Come on, now,

596
00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,480
Speaker 1: he's still a bell cow. J rob has a safe floor,

597
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,880
Speaker 1: as was every starting running back against Detroit. They've at

598
00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 1: least total seventy four combo yards and four or five catches,

599
00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 1: So double PPR points in the books for Robinson, then

600
00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:59,760
Speaker 1: DJ Shark probably he's on the bench, unlikely to play.

601
00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:01,600
Speaker 1: Even if he does, you're looking at a decoy role.

602
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,880
Speaker 1: Levis les Chanalt. You take a chance to me wide receiver,

603
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 1: chart Keeling Cole was might take a chance to me

604
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,600
Speaker 1: wide receiver. And Gardner Minshew might take a chance to

605
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:13,920
Speaker 1: me quarterback. All right, what about Chris Conley, he should

606
00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:18,120
Speaker 1: be he's a listeners. Take a chance to me. We

607
00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:21,840
Speaker 1: are ultimately jinxing Cole and Chanald into bad games. And

608
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 1: Chris Connolly maybe I'm going to it could be Washington

609
00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 1: takes on the Giants, and man, these are too bad

610
00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:35,560
Speaker 1: bad offenses. As I mentioned last segment, Washington with one

611
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:38,720
Speaker 1: hundred eight total yards of offense last year last week

612
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:42,280
Speaker 1: and negative six yards of offense in the second half,

613
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:46,640
Speaker 1: ruining what was a try an amazing return for Alex

614
00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:50,160
Speaker 1: Smith didn't work out that way. Unfortunately. Now the offensive

615
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:53,160
Speaker 1: line does get guard Brandon Sheriff back, and that's huge,

616
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:55,680
Speaker 1: and God that they need him because that offensive line

617
00:32:55,880 --> 00:33:00,840
Speaker 1: was brutal last week. I still like Antonio Gibson. In fact,

618
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,560
Speaker 1: I think this is a perfect time to trade for

619
00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:07,720
Speaker 1: Antonio Gibson coming off a bad game. Each running back

620
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 1: with at least ten touches against the Giants has averaged

621
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:14,840
Speaker 1: yards and one point two touchdowns per game. I don't

622
00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:16,760
Speaker 1: know if there will be enough gibbage time in this one,

623
00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:18,800
Speaker 1: though I don't think he even needs the gibbage time.

624
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,720
Speaker 1: That could be just alright winning. You never know. Despite

625
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 1: these sputtering offense around him and splitting some of the

626
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:27,800
Speaker 1: backfield duties with J. D. McKissick, uh Antonio, Gibson still

627
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:31,240
Speaker 1: commanding fourteen touches a game. Most importantly, he just passes

628
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:34,240
Speaker 1: the eye test. He looks good when he's given anything

629
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:37,520
Speaker 1: to work with. I'm convinced that Gibson is a good

630
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:40,480
Speaker 1: back who has had some bad run find a bad

631
00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:43,080
Speaker 1: offensive line that hopefully is getting better. I think this

632
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:44,920
Speaker 1: is a Bylow moment on Gibson and he gets a

633
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:47,400
Speaker 1: B grade for this game. U J D. Mcsuck it

634
00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:51,240
Speaker 1: gets a C grade. PPR option is as a possibility

635
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,680
Speaker 1: here as I think he does get some get some receptions.

636
00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:56,959
Speaker 1: He's seeing about half the running back snaps, the other

637
00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 1: half going to Gibson. Giants have a lot of big

638
00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 1: games through the air. To David Montgomery and Jeff Wilson

639
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:04,600
Speaker 1: out of the blue, So there's no reason mckiss i

640
00:34:04,640 --> 00:34:07,320
Speaker 1: can't succeed here as well. So C grade for J. D.

641
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,719
Speaker 1: Mcsuckett in PPR leagues only, and that brings us to

642
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:16,440
Speaker 1: Terry McLaurin, the only other might attempted. Here's the problem.

643
00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:20,480
Speaker 1: Normally McLaren finds his way to a good game no

644
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:22,560
Speaker 1: matter what, no matter the opponent, no matter how mad

645
00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:24,680
Speaker 1: his quarterbacking is. And by the way, should have mentioned

646
00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,439
Speaker 1: Kyle Allen returns to the helm here, but he's gonna

647
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 1: get shadow covered from James Bradberry, who struggled a little

648
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:34,360
Speaker 1: bit in the opener and then since then has been awesome.

649
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,640
Speaker 1: Since the opener, he's allowing an average of twenty three

650
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:40,719
Speaker 1: scoreless yards. And speaking of twenty three yards, that's what

651
00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:43,720
Speaker 1: he just held a Marie Cooper to twenty three yards

652
00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 1: in shadow coverage. So I only have the C grade

653
00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 1: on Terry McLaurin, and honestly, I wouldn't blame you if

654
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:52,000
Speaker 1: you benched him if you've got other good options. Let's

655
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:55,080
Speaker 1: go to the giant side. Only two players to talk about.

656
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:58,239
Speaker 1: The first is Darius Slayton in the passing game. The

657
00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:03,640
Speaker 1: Giants offense has generated two passing touchdowns through five games.

658
00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:07,120
Speaker 1: That's horrible. He's facing a Washington secondary that has allowed

659
00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:10,560
Speaker 1: two receivers to top seventy yards and two receivers to

660
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:12,960
Speaker 1: find the end zone all year, and he's got a

661
00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:15,960
Speaker 1: tough matchup against Kendall Fuller who's played very well and

662
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:19,640
Speaker 1: has three interceptions in his last three games. So slight

663
00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:21,960
Speaker 1: and just to see grade. And then the only other

664
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:25,600
Speaker 1: player that you would uh even consider starting is running

665
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:28,520
Speaker 1: back DeVonta Freeman, seeing over half the running back snaps

666
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:30,920
Speaker 1: and back to back weeks he's seeing an increase in

667
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:34,879
Speaker 1: rushing attempts, rushing yards, and rushing yards per carry, which

668
00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:39,600
Speaker 1: is good. Since shutting down the Miles Sanders list Eagles,

669
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:43,920
Speaker 1: Washington has allowed one hundred fifteen rushing yards per game,

670
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:46,719
Speaker 1: which is six most, and one point five touchdowns per

671
00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:49,440
Speaker 1: game to opposing running backs. So I think you can

672
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:55,120
Speaker 1: use Devanta Semen Freeman Freeman at how do you know

673
00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:58,279
Speaker 1: he hasn't been in the Navy. He could have been

674
00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:00,840
Speaker 1: in the Navy. We don't know that. I was just

675
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:03,400
Speaker 1: about to say no, Evan Ingram and now I'm all,

676
00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:09,799
Speaker 1: I'm all grade freeman, which makes him a seman. It's

677
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:15,040
Speaker 1: a ce man, a c man. That's exactly right, Evan Ingram.

678
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:17,400
Speaker 1: At this point, I'm just gonna stop talking, and that

679
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:21,160
Speaker 1: will tell you about Cleveland. At Pittsburgh. Kareem Hunt is

680
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:25,240
Speaker 1: also a seaman, but I think it's an elevated seaman.

681
00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:28,560
Speaker 1: Let's call it a sea extreme. Uh. He's going to

682
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,040
Speaker 1: get all of the work in the backfield that loves

683
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:33,840
Speaker 1: to run. The problem is the Steelers are only allowing

684
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:37,400
Speaker 1: fifty one yards per game to opposing backs. Now, Miles

685
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:40,319
Speaker 1: Sanders did score twice last week and had that one

686
00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:43,800
Speaker 1: huge drawn against the Steelers, but that was the best

687
00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:47,000
Speaker 1: fantasy day for running back against the Steelers since Week

688
00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:51,520
Speaker 1: sixteen of two thousand eighteen, when Alvin Kamara scored twice

689
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:53,600
Speaker 1: and tallied over a hundred yards. That was like an

690
00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 1: eclipse last week. They don't happen often. Baker Mayfield, he's

691
00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:00,520
Speaker 1: on your bench. Mayfield his face the Steelers three times

692
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:02,680
Speaker 1: in his career, and while he did throw for two

693
00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:06,040
Speaker 1: touchdown passes in two of those games, he's still never

694
00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:09,440
Speaker 1: topped two hundred yards against a Mike Tomlin defense, and

695
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:12,680
Speaker 1: he's only averaging per game on the air, good for

696
00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:15,319
Speaker 1: twenty six in the league. That's not good enough for

697
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:18,600
Speaker 1: him to get a starting grade. Odell Beckham and Jarvis Landry,

698
00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:21,319
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give them both, you know, C grades. They're

699
00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:25,080
Speaker 1: both seamen as well. Uh. The Steelers are allowing two

700
00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:27,960
Speaker 1: hundred three yards per game to the wide receiver position,

701
00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:31,600
Speaker 1: and Travis Fulgum roughed them up a little bit last week.

702
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:34,840
Speaker 1: Odell couldn't topped sixty yards in his two games against

703
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:37,720
Speaker 1: the Steelers last year, and he's only topped sixty yards

704
00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:41,040
Speaker 1: four times in his last ten total outings and he

705
00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:44,239
Speaker 1: hasn't topped eighty one yards in one of those. So uh.

706
00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:47,880
Speaker 1: He's just to see Landry at season highs in targets

707
00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:51,759
Speaker 1: and yards last week, but only converted those nine targets

708
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:54,799
Speaker 1: to forty four yards. He still hasn't scored on the year,

709
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:57,400
Speaker 1: and he has one touchdown in his last ten games.

710
00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:00,760
Speaker 1: Austin Hooper's on the bench. It's just a matchup based

711
00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:02,640
Speaker 1: thing for Hooper and this isn't the matchup for it.

712
00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:05,879
Speaker 1: Over on the Steeler side, Big Ben, He's getting an

713
00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:08,720
Speaker 1: a he's fourth in the league and touchdown passes facing

714
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:11,279
Speaker 1: a defense that has allowed the third most touchdowns through

715
00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:14,600
Speaker 1: the air this season and three fourteen yards per game.

716
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:20,919
Speaker 1: Chase Claypool and Juju Smith Schuster. I'm giving them both

717
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:24,720
Speaker 1: B grades in this game, and it's closer to A grades. Actually,

718
00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:27,279
Speaker 1: it's like a high B. It's a B extreme. There

719
00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:29,560
Speaker 1: is no such thing, but there is a grade. Uh.

720
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:33,160
Speaker 1: Deonte Johnson still out this week, so Chase Claypool and

721
00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:37,280
Speaker 1: his world tour continues. UH. He's currently leading the Steelers

722
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:40,919
Speaker 1: in air yards and touchdowns. Juju is running strictly from

723
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:44,080
Speaker 1: the slot but getting about six targets per game. The

724
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:47,279
Speaker 1: Browns just put starting cornerback Greedy Williams on i R.

725
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:50,080
Speaker 1: And Denzel Ward has been beaten for three touchdowns so

726
00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:52,759
Speaker 1: far this year. He's been bad. And oh, by the way,

727
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:55,320
Speaker 1: the Browns are allowing over two hundred yards and a

728
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:58,120
Speaker 1: score and a half to the wide receiver position every game.

729
00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:01,960
Speaker 1: Eric Ebron, it's a B. He's averaging five targets per

730
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:03,759
Speaker 1: game and has had five receptions in each of his

731
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 1: last two outings. The Browns are allowing almost seven catches

732
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:09,759
Speaker 1: and sixty two yards to the position and allowed four

733
00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:13,560
Speaker 1: tight end touchdowns in five games. Finally, James Connor. He

734
00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:15,920
Speaker 1: gets a B grade as well. After laying an egg

735
00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:18,480
Speaker 1: in Week one. Connor has scored in three straight and

736
00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:21,000
Speaker 1: top two hundred and two of three. The Browns have

737
00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:24,000
Speaker 1: been pretty good against the yardage this season, though is

738
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:27,040
Speaker 1: no back has top to fifty seven yards against them,

739
00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:30,120
Speaker 1: but they have allowed five rushing touchdowns in five games,

740
00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,560
Speaker 1: and that probably goes to Connor in this one. And

741
00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:34,479
Speaker 1: I think that I think the Steelers are just gonna

742
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:38,200
Speaker 1: absolutely roll the Browns in this one. I kind of

743
00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:40,680
Speaker 1: hope you're wrong. It would be fun to have Cleveland relevant,

744
00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:42,440
Speaker 1: would be fun. This is This is the kind of

745
00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:47,359
Speaker 1: statement game that would bring absolute Cleveland franchise relevancy they

746
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:51,520
Speaker 1: have not had since they left Cleveland. One of my

747
00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:54,160
Speaker 1: kids gave up on the Vikings and he's now a

748
00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 1: Browns fan for no good reason. Followed Kevin followed, He's

749
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:01,759
Speaker 1: he's on me every week. Yeah, Browns are four and

750
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:04,880
Speaker 1: one wearing his Odell jersey. It's like, Okay, I got you.

751
00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:07,399
Speaker 1: He's got a brown Zo deal Jersey's got a brown

752
00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:10,600
Speaker 1: Zo del jersey. He's got a giant Motel hat. Yeah,

753
00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:15,200
Speaker 1: that's ja. Chicago takes on Carolina Briant. Now, if you're

754
00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:19,439
Speaker 1: a David Montgomery owner, you've had this game circled all year,

755
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:21,799
Speaker 1: every year. Every week, you're just like, who's got the

756
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:24,200
Speaker 1: Who's got the Panthers? This is the perfect week for

757
00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:26,839
Speaker 1: that running back David Montgomery sitting at a big game.

758
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:29,840
Speaker 1: There's nothing I hate more than it's player X week.

759
00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:33,640
Speaker 1: But it is David Montgomery week. The Panthers are allowing

760
00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:35,920
Speaker 1: a hundred and seventy plus combo yards per game to

761
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 1: running backs, third most, one point eight touchdowns per game

762
00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:42,120
Speaker 1: to running backs the most, and Montgomery has seen a

763
00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:44,239
Speaker 1: bump in the passing game with three cohen On I r.

764
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:48,080
Speaker 1: Monty is averaging seven targets per game, and Carolina has

765
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:51,960
Speaker 1: yielded the third most targets and the second most red

766
00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:55,040
Speaker 1: zone targets too opposing running back. So put it on

767
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:58,719
Speaker 1: the fridge and a for David Montgomery. Over to the

768
00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:01,360
Speaker 1: receiving game for Chicago, Allen Robinson gonna give him an

769
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:04,720
Speaker 1: a too. Over the last four weeks, Mike Evans, Keenan Allen,

770
00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:07,000
Speaker 1: and Calvin Ridley have all topped the hundred yards against

771
00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:09,920
Speaker 1: the Panthers. A rob is certainly cut from the same

772
00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:13,359
Speaker 1: cloth He's averaging thirteen targets for a hundred plus yards

773
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:16,720
Speaker 1: over his last two games. Double digit targets uh, certainly

774
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:19,760
Speaker 1: in the cards for Allen Robinson. I got Anthony Miller

775
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,640
Speaker 1: and Darnell Mooney on the bench. They cannot be trusted

776
00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:26,480
Speaker 1: at this point. But can Jimmy Graham be trusted as

777
00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:29,719
Speaker 1: an every week starter? The answer is no. I got

778
00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:32,080
Speaker 1: him on the bench this week. Graham is tied for

779
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:34,960
Speaker 1: the most end zone targets in the NFL among all players,

780
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:38,400
Speaker 1: has four touchdowns already, but the Panthers have allowed just

781
00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:40,759
Speaker 1: one touchdown to a tight end this year, and they

782
00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:43,359
Speaker 1: gave up just four touchdowns to tight ends last year.

783
00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:46,520
Speaker 1: Carolina ranks third best in yards allowed to the position

784
00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:49,160
Speaker 1: in terms of least amount, and no tight end his

785
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:52,160
Speaker 1: top fifty yards in ten games against Carolina going back

786
00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:54,280
Speaker 1: to last year. So Graham on the bench this week,

787
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:56,719
Speaker 1: as is Nick Foles. You can basically bank on a

788
00:41:56,840 --> 00:41:59,440
Speaker 1: rob stats and that's about it makes polls, It's all

789
00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:02,560
Speaker 1: David Monk. I'm ringing this one over to the Carolina side.

790
00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:05,840
Speaker 1: Not a lot of love here, starting with Robby Anderson,

791
00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:09,680
Speaker 1: who is third in catches overall. Right now, if that's

792
00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:15,760
Speaker 1: it's shocking wide receiver fifties six in August and arguably

793
00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:18,600
Speaker 1: the biggest steel in fantasy football. Yeah, he probably is

794
00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:22,400
Speaker 1: the biggest steel other than maybe John new Smith. Maybe

795
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:25,319
Speaker 1: maybe John. By the way he's daggering DJ Moore, He

796
00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:28,680
Speaker 1: certainly is, But I think uh Anderson and Morgan get

797
00:42:28,760 --> 00:42:31,200
Speaker 1: daggered and this one it's a rough, rough matchup for both.

798
00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:33,800
Speaker 1: In the last four games, Chicago secondary has only allowed

799
00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:37,160
Speaker 1: more than sixty one yards to one receiver, that was

800
00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:40,560
Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley. The Bears have also only allowed one touchdown

801
00:42:40,600 --> 00:42:44,960
Speaker 1: to receiver a wide receiver all season. Anderson and Anderson

802
00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:47,719
Speaker 1: is a tough matchup against Kyle Kyle Kyle Buhler, who

803
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:50,680
Speaker 1: is allowing just passes to be completed in his coverage.

804
00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:53,839
Speaker 1: That said, the Bears have allowed the third most red

805
00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:56,320
Speaker 1: zone targets to wide receivers, and Anderson his fifth in

806
00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:58,640
Speaker 1: red zone targets among all players. I'll still give him

807
00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:00,239
Speaker 1: a sea, But I got DJ more on the bench

808
00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:03,000
Speaker 1: averaging just five targets per game over the last three weeks.

809
00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,520
Speaker 1: That's not cool. And if you remove his fifty seven

810
00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:08,200
Speaker 1: yard catching run touchdown from last week against Atlanta, which

811
00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:11,360
Speaker 1: was kind of flukey, averaging three catches, thirty six yards

812
00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:14,360
Speaker 1: and zero touchdowns per game. Is DJ Moore. He is

813
00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:18,320
Speaker 1: on the bench as his Teddy Bridgewater another amazing bargain

814
00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:21,440
Speaker 1: in draft this year. I hate to bench Bridgewater, but

815
00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:23,680
Speaker 1: the Bears d is pretty much back to elite. They

816
00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:26,399
Speaker 1: are allowing the fourth view as points per game. Uh

817
00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:28,960
Speaker 1: that's at twenty points per game, and no opposing quarterback

818
00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:31,960
Speaker 1: has thrown for more than one touchdown and the very

819
00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:36,759
Speaker 1: comparable Bucks defense Health Caroline is seventeen points in Week two. Yes,

820
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:39,480
Speaker 1: Bridgewater had three d sixties seven passing yards, but he

821
00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:42,919
Speaker 1: had two picks and no touchdowns. And lastly, at running back,

822
00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:46,200
Speaker 1: McCaffrey probably not gonna play you gonna play him. I'm

823
00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:48,600
Speaker 1: giving him Mike Davis and a Only Alvin Kamara has

824
00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:50,560
Speaker 1: seen more targets at running back than Mike Davis, and

825
00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:52,680
Speaker 1: Davis has missed like a third of the season. The

826
00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:54,880
Speaker 1: Bears have been decent against opposing backs, but they are

827
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:57,560
Speaker 1: allowing a hundred thirty four comvo yards per game to

828
00:43:57,600 --> 00:44:00,600
Speaker 1: the position. So Davis in play with the b All right,

829
00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:03,200
Speaker 1: that was a that was a lot to talk about,

830
00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:06,680
Speaker 1: and if it didn't cover all of your questions. You

00:44:59,120 --> 00:45:02,160
Speaker 1: every week. We're do some podcasts, the Shock Fantasy Podcast,

841
00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:05,720
Speaker 1: which normally we do the Thursday night matchup Fantasy Football

842
00:45:05,719 --> 00:45:08,200
Speaker 1: Weekly style, but didn't have to do it this week.

843
00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:11,359
Speaker 1: But we also do the Waiver Wire podcast that you

844
00:45:11,480 --> 00:45:13,759
Speaker 1: used to do on Fantasy Football almost daily. I just

845
00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:17,000
Speaker 1: picked up where you're letting off, so uh yeah, Shock

846
00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:19,160
Speaker 1: Fantasy podcast, look for that. This is a game we

847
00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:22,000
Speaker 1: call three Tough Questions. We encourage you to play along

848
00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:23,840
Speaker 1: see if you can go three n O with the

849
00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:27,600
Speaker 1: panel of experts, namely Brian and Matt. Tough. Question number

850
00:45:27,680 --> 00:45:30,920
Speaker 1: one New Kansas City chief running back levy On Bell

851
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:34,440
Speaker 1: certainly hurts Clyde Edwards Alayer's already wobbly fantasy value, but

852
00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:39,160
Speaker 1: let's focus on him for a minute going forward. Once

853
00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:41,600
Speaker 1: he joins the team next week, will he be an

854
00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:48,319
Speaker 1: RB one and RB two, a flex or a bench player? Brian, So,

855
00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:51,479
Speaker 1: the Chiefs running back hasn't been the most lucrative spot

856
00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:54,879
Speaker 1: so far. Chiefs are averaging just twenty rush attempts per

857
00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:56,920
Speaker 1: game and under five catches per game when it comes

858
00:45:56,960 --> 00:46:00,959
Speaker 1: to running backs, and assuming best case scenario, Bell gets

859
00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:05,080
Speaker 1: sevent of those touch totals, it's not a very impressive amount.

860
00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:08,879
Speaker 1: I don't see Clyde Edwards E Layer Ball getting less

861
00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:12,680
Speaker 1: than of the touches moving forward. Of course, the offense

862
00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:15,319
Speaker 1: is electric in Kansas City and Bell could be the

863
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:18,839
Speaker 1: missing piece to get it fully. Clicking the schedule wasn't

864
00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:21,840
Speaker 1: great moving forward. He's got the Broncos twice, the Bucks,

865
00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:24,520
Speaker 1: the Saints, but there are some cupcakes in the mix

866
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:28,920
Speaker 1: with the Jets revenge game next week, Panthers, Dolphins, and

867
00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:31,640
Speaker 1: the Falcons in week sixteen, so it's an up and

868
00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:33,399
Speaker 1: down bag. But Bell is going to be the lead

869
00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:37,439
Speaker 1: back RB two moving forward with ease. Okay, I don't

870
00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:40,200
Speaker 1: have much to add from what Brian said, but does

871
00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:42,120
Speaker 1: he have a lot more in the tank than Lashawn

872
00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:44,319
Speaker 1: McCoy did last year when he joined the club. And

873
00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:48,360
Speaker 1: I think that yes. Plus he's leaving Adam Gaze, and

874
00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:51,040
Speaker 1: every player who leaves Adam Gaze ends up having a

875
00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:53,399
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl season. The rest of the way, I only

876
00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:57,200
Speaker 1: have him as a flex though. All right, well, let's

877
00:46:57,239 --> 00:46:59,520
Speaker 1: dig into this. The presumed role for laby On Bell's

878
00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:01,839
Speaker 1: a one two hunch with Clyde Edwards Hilaire. You know,

879
00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:03,920
Speaker 1: is he the one or is either two in this punch?

880
00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:05,600
Speaker 1: Is really I think a lot of the question here.

881
00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:08,480
Speaker 1: We know that Bell is the probable goal line back

882
00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:12,120
Speaker 1: because Clyde Edwards Alaire hasn't been able to get anything

883
00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:15,480
Speaker 1: going inside the five yard line, although they basically stopped

884
00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,600
Speaker 1: trying with him inside the five yard line. Bell has

885
00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:21,800
Speaker 1: good hands. He'll chisel into Clyde Edwards a layers already

886
00:47:21,840 --> 00:47:24,040
Speaker 1: modest role as a receiver that in fact, Bell might

887
00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:26,520
Speaker 1: have better hands, and Bell will be on the field

888
00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:29,160
Speaker 1: and third downs because and this is a I think

889
00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:32,680
Speaker 1: this is the sneaky reason they made this move. Clyde

890
00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:38,280
Speaker 1: Edwards a layer is the NFL's bottom ranked pass blocking

891
00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:42,200
Speaker 1: running back. If you are the bottom ranked pass blocking

892
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 1: running back and you are a liability to Patrick Mahomes,

893
00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:49,360
Speaker 1: you're not on the field much. And that's what worries me.

894
00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:52,000
Speaker 1: And that's why I believe that at least on passing downs,

895
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:53,960
Speaker 1: and there are a lot of passing down to this offense,

896
00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:58,200
Speaker 1: Clyde Edwards Laire is not going to be on the field. Now.

897
00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:02,279
Speaker 1: Everybody's gonna struggle behind this run blocking unit that's been bad,

898
00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:05,440
Speaker 1: and they just lost Collecchio, assimilate their starting guard who

899
00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:09,080
Speaker 1: was the backup behind the the starting guard who decided

900
00:48:09,120 --> 00:48:12,440
Speaker 1: to go be a doctor all season. So I think

901
00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:15,920
Speaker 1: there's going to be struggles here many weeks. But nevertheless,

902
00:48:16,040 --> 00:48:19,840
Speaker 1: I think that Bell has more total upside between pass catching,

903
00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:23,439
Speaker 1: pass blocking, goal line use than Clyde Edwards a layer,

904
00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:25,759
Speaker 1: and he will be a running back to the rest

905
00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:30,239
Speaker 1: of the way. Tough question number two. The last time

906
00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:33,680
Speaker 1: Davante Adams was healthy back in Week one, Robert Tanyan

907
00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:38,960
Speaker 1: didn't have a catch with Adam's back. Is Tanyan a

908
00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:44,799
Speaker 1: sure fire every week starting tight end Matt uh So,

909
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:48,319
Speaker 1: Robert Tanyan has caught eleven passes in the last two

910
00:48:48,320 --> 00:48:51,319
Speaker 1: weeks for a hundred and forty eight yards and four touchdowns.

911
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:54,960
Speaker 1: Those are very good numbers, but let's consider the entirety

912
00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:57,440
Speaker 1: of his three year career, much of which has been

913
00:48:57,480 --> 00:49:01,080
Speaker 1: played with Davanta Adams. His eleven just over those two games,

914
00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:04,680
Speaker 1: where forty one percent of his career receptions, fifty two

915
00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:07,560
Speaker 1: percent of his career yardage, and fifty sent of his

916
00:49:07,640 --> 00:49:11,360
Speaker 1: career touchdowns. But maybe Aaron Rodgers just figured out something

917
00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:13,879
Speaker 1: was finally there, figured out how to use a tight end,

918
00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:16,760
Speaker 1: something he barely has done at any point in his career.

919
00:49:18,040 --> 00:49:20,800
Speaker 1: That's why I think that realistically we can expect Jimmy

920
00:49:20,840 --> 00:49:24,800
Speaker 1: Graham numbers out of Robert Tonyan once Davanta Adams comes back.

921
00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:28,720
Speaker 1: And Jimmy Graham averaged three catches for thirty four yards

922
00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:31,560
Speaker 1: throughout his two year packer career. So I do not

923
00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:35,759
Speaker 1: think he's an every week's starting tight end, Brian, it's

924
00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:38,319
Speaker 1: Robert Tannian and every week's starting tight end. I have

925
00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:40,000
Speaker 1: sort of the same things to say, but with a

926
00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:42,960
Speaker 1: different answer. So tight ends having factored into Green Bay's offense,

927
00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:45,520
Speaker 1: it's like the days of Bubba Frank's or like that

928
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:49,640
Speaker 1: Michael Finley had like a cup of coffee for a minute.

929
00:49:49,640 --> 00:49:52,759
Speaker 1: As an elite tight end, Packers tight end finishes as

930
00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:58,640
Speaker 1: a whole in catches starting from last year, ten six

931
00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:02,759
Speaker 1: and twenty sixteen. So the eighteen year Jimmy Graham at

932
00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:05,120
Speaker 1: fifty five catches and nearly seven hundred yards, he was

933
00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:08,680
Speaker 1: the second leading receiver for the Packers. There was Davante

934
00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:11,560
Speaker 1: Adams had a monster year, played fifteen games, almost fourteen

935
00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:15,560
Speaker 1: hundred yards and three touchdowns. No other wide receiver outside

936
00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:18,000
Speaker 1: of Adams on that team. Jimmy Graham the second leading receiver.

937
00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:22,200
Speaker 1: Virtually the same situation for the Packers this year. Tanyan

938
00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:25,759
Speaker 1: looks better than a cook to Jimmy Graham from so,

939
00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:28,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, yes, he's in every week starting tight ends.

940
00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:30,720
Speaker 1: He isn't every week starting tight end. And there's another

941
00:50:30,760 --> 00:50:34,280
Speaker 1: way to answer this question. Is he a top twelve

942
00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:37,200
Speaker 1: tight end? The answers yes, I mean they're only in

943
00:50:37,239 --> 00:50:39,759
Speaker 1: my the way I look at it. Their eight reliable

944
00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:42,279
Speaker 1: tight ends in a draft. We thought going into the

945
00:50:42,320 --> 00:50:43,960
Speaker 1: draft was a deep year for tight end, but a

946
00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:47,800
Speaker 1: lot of the bubble guys haven't panned out, Hayden Hurst,

947
00:50:48,040 --> 00:50:53,919
Speaker 1: Austin Cooper, Evan Ingram, Bold, Cook, Dan Arnold, all all

948
00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:58,560
Speaker 1: of these guys disasters, So there aren't twelve good tight

949
00:50:58,640 --> 00:51:00,920
Speaker 1: ends to go around. I'm certainly not going to be

950
00:51:01,120 --> 00:51:03,719
Speaker 1: not I'm certainly not gonna be benching Robert Tonyan with

951
00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:05,680
Speaker 1: all of the touchdown so far. And I think maybe

952
00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:08,600
Speaker 1: most importantly, Tanyan just passes the eye test. He looks athletic,

953
00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:11,640
Speaker 1: he can catch, He's got the passes that have gone

954
00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:15,719
Speaker 1: Tanyan's way. He has zero drops on the season, and

955
00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:19,400
Speaker 1: you can make a pretty strong case that after Davante Adams,

956
00:51:19,840 --> 00:51:24,560
Speaker 1: Tanyan is Aaron rodgers second best target. Maybe, especially with

957
00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:27,600
Speaker 1: Alan Lazard out Aaron Jones, maybe is two A and

958
00:51:27,640 --> 00:51:32,480
Speaker 1: two B. So yes, you can start Robert Tanyan the

959
00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:36,719
Speaker 1: rest of the year. Every week. Tough question number three,

960
00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:41,160
Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb or Marie Cooper teammates for the rest of

961
00:51:41,200 --> 00:51:44,880
Speaker 1: the year. Who you got Brian Michael Gallop would like

962
00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:49,239
Speaker 1: a word with you, But anyway, she assuming nobody would

963
00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:51,680
Speaker 1: have taken Gallop and I was tip dude, But anyway,

964
00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:54,479
Speaker 1: over the last three weeks, Cooper has out targeted Lamb

965
00:51:54,640 --> 00:51:58,720
Speaker 1: thirty two to four, but Lamb has compiled more catches, yards,

966
00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:01,640
Speaker 1: and touchdowns during that three expand, of course we can

967
00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:04,360
Speaker 1: throw out most of the season stats because Doc is

968
00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:07,000
Speaker 1: on I are now. But last week Lamb saw leven

969
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:11,440
Speaker 1: targets to Cooper's for Dalton rarely looked Cooper's way, and

970
00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:14,560
Speaker 1: Cede Lamb has been very consistent in his rookie year,

971
00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:17,400
Speaker 1: with at least five catches in every game. He also

972
00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:21,279
Speaker 1: leads the Cowboys and end zone targets so far. Consistent

973
00:52:21,600 --> 00:52:25,239
Speaker 1: is something that Mary Cooper has never been throughout his career. Yes,

974
00:52:25,400 --> 00:52:27,880
Speaker 1: the first four weeks he was more than consistent, was

975
00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:31,000
Speaker 1: blowing up, but he wet the bed last week. He's

976
00:52:31,040 --> 00:52:34,000
Speaker 1: wet the bed in like fifty percent of his career games.

977
00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:37,279
Speaker 1: UH failed to reach five catches at nearly half of

978
00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:39,480
Speaker 1: his games last year. I just see the up and

979
00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:41,880
Speaker 1: down for Cooper too much, and I see c D

980
00:52:42,080 --> 00:52:45,239
Speaker 1: as a consistently safe floor with a massive ceiling. The

981
00:52:45,280 --> 00:52:47,800
Speaker 1: best wide receiver on that team right now is Ceedee Lamb.

982
00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:52,200
Speaker 1: I'll take both, by the way. UH Cooper is top

983
00:52:52,239 --> 00:52:54,880
Speaker 1: three and targets and receptions, Lamb is top thirteen in

984
00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:57,879
Speaker 1: both of those categories. They're both averaging about eighty five

985
00:52:57,960 --> 00:52:59,879
Speaker 1: yards per game, and I like Cooper a lot more

986
00:53:00,040 --> 00:53:03,680
Speaker 1: this year in the Mike McCarthy more free flowing offense.

987
00:53:04,239 --> 00:53:07,800
Speaker 1: But the one thing is Lamb plays out of the slot,

988
00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:11,399
Speaker 1: so he's going to consistently get slot corners covering him,

989
00:53:11,520 --> 00:53:15,000
Speaker 1: who generally aren't as good as outside corners, while Cooper

990
00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:17,600
Speaker 1: will likely face top cover corners for the rest of

991
00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:20,400
Speaker 1: the year, like James Bradberry last week, who made his

992
00:53:20,480 --> 00:53:24,120
Speaker 1: day very difficult. And that's the tiebreaker. So I'll take Lamb.

993
00:53:24,160 --> 00:53:26,560
Speaker 1: But it's pretty close to even. You get did a

994
00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:30,239
Speaker 1: great job with this question. You know, after Dallas drafted

995
00:53:30,440 --> 00:53:33,640
Speaker 1: Ceedee Lamb, I proclaimed that he'd be the Cowboys best

996
00:53:33,680 --> 00:53:36,000
Speaker 1: receiver by the end of the year. I was wrong.

997
00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:39,799
Speaker 1: It took four weeks. Oh, it's he's all you know,

998
00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:43,680
Speaker 1: he's already the best receiver. You're still, well, that's true,

999
00:53:43,719 --> 00:53:45,960
Speaker 1: I'm it's yeah, it's it's a humble brag. Really can

1000
00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:48,759
Speaker 1: get right down to it. Um. I think for all

1001
00:53:48,800 --> 00:53:50,920
Speaker 1: the reasons that you've mentioned here, he's immune to the

1002
00:53:50,960 --> 00:53:53,000
Speaker 1: bust game. I love that he runs from the slot.

1003
00:53:53,080 --> 00:53:55,120
Speaker 1: I love all the usage they've given him. And in

1004
00:53:55,239 --> 00:53:58,440
Speaker 1: a historic draft class, or what is shaping up to

1005
00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:02,359
Speaker 1: be a historic draft class for wide receivers, Ceedee Lamb

1006
00:54:02,440 --> 00:54:05,520
Speaker 1: might be the best out of all of them. I mean,

1007
00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:07,160
Speaker 1: Ceede Lamb is gonna be the best every week. No,

1008
00:54:07,400 --> 00:54:09,680
Speaker 1: but I think in totality of the season, Ceedee Lamb

1009
00:54:09,960 --> 00:54:12,799
Speaker 1: will be the best. Denver in Las Vegas are going

1010
00:54:12,880 --> 00:54:16,319
Speaker 1: to be kicking themselves for years and years. I think,

1011
00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:22,000
Speaker 1: taking and Judy and Jefferson for that matter, well maybe yeah,

1012
00:54:22,040 --> 00:54:25,279
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, they could add Jefferson, I know, but

1013
00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:31,080
Speaker 1: Jefferson was right. Yeah, Atlanta takes on Minnesota and let's

1014
00:54:31,239 --> 00:54:34,640
Speaker 1: let's begin with the passing game. Julio Jones removed from

1015
00:54:34,680 --> 00:54:38,040
Speaker 1: the injury report on Friday, given and barring a last

1016
00:54:38,080 --> 00:54:40,719
Speaker 1: minute set back on his hamstring, he will he will

1017
00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:42,880
Speaker 1: go now. He would be in a grade were it

1018
00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:45,319
Speaker 1: not for the threat of re injury that we all

1019
00:54:45,360 --> 00:54:48,800
Speaker 1: experienced two weeks ago. Jones runs from all over the field,

1020
00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:51,600
Speaker 1: and he has a deeply positive matchup at every stop

1021
00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:55,200
Speaker 1: against Minnesota's green secondary of Cameron Danceler, Mike Hughes, and

1022
00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:59,399
Speaker 1: Jeff Gladney. I will note this, though Mike Zimmer has

1023
00:55:00,000 --> 00:55:05,600
Speaker 1: owned Julio Jones his average career game against Minnesota thirty

1024
00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:10,279
Speaker 1: eight yards and zero point two touchdowns. That's it. I'm

1025
00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:14,680
Speaker 1: just picturing Zimmer shadowing Julio personally out it's been It

1026
00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:17,520
Speaker 1: is shocking when Zimmer has done to Julio Jones. Julio

1027
00:55:17,960 --> 00:55:21,960
Speaker 1: need a dollar. I don't even know what that means.

1028
00:55:23,200 --> 00:55:26,040
Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley gets an a. He has succeeded despite Matt

1029
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:27,879
Speaker 1: ryan struggles, and we'll talk about that in a minute.

1030
00:55:27,880 --> 00:55:29,759
Speaker 1: Posting over one hundred yards and all four of his

1031
00:55:29,800 --> 00:55:33,400
Speaker 1: healthy games in the last three games without Julio Jones,

1032
00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:37,040
Speaker 1: Ridley's averaging twelve targets per game. That probably comes down

1033
00:55:37,120 --> 00:55:39,760
Speaker 1: a bit here with Julio Jones back, but the Vikings

1034
00:55:39,800 --> 00:55:42,760
Speaker 1: also can't centralize their coverage on Julio Jones, so probably

1035
00:55:42,800 --> 00:55:45,800
Speaker 1: evens out. The Vikings are giving up one hundred ninety

1036
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:49,840
Speaker 1: three yards per game to receivers, that is the fourth most.

1037
00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:53,480
Speaker 1: They've also allowed multiple touchdowns to receivers and back to

1038
00:55:53,600 --> 00:55:58,399
Speaker 1: back weeks, So a grade for Calvin Ridley. Let's get

1039
00:55:58,440 --> 00:56:02,239
Speaker 1: to Matt Ryan, who is just playing bad right now.

1040
00:56:02,680 --> 00:56:05,560
Speaker 1: His game last week is the worst game I've ever seen.

1041
00:56:05,640 --> 00:56:09,239
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan play. He has thrown one touchdown in his

1042
00:56:09,360 --> 00:56:14,080
Speaker 1: last three games. The last time Matt Ryan threw one

1043
00:56:14,160 --> 00:56:18,560
Speaker 1: touchdown over a span of three games were his second,

1044
00:56:18,920 --> 00:56:23,040
Speaker 1: third and fourth ever NFL games back in tooth and

1045
00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:26,040
Speaker 1: you're gonna say, like fifth grade football, it could have been,

1046
00:56:26,160 --> 00:56:28,600
Speaker 1: but he was probably torching, you know, Billy Jenkins in

1047
00:56:28,600 --> 00:56:31,040
Speaker 1: the backyard, so that I think he was probably good

1048
00:56:31,080 --> 00:56:33,839
Speaker 1: there too. Minnesota's a lot of five touchdown passes over

1049
00:56:33,880 --> 00:56:36,520
Speaker 1: the past two weeks, and I think you keep starting

1050
00:56:36,560 --> 00:56:38,920
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan here. As bad as he was last week,

1051
00:56:39,080 --> 00:56:41,520
Speaker 1: I'm still giving him a sea here, just because the

1052
00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:44,959
Speaker 1: Vikings are so mallegable and Julio Jones is coming back.

1053
00:56:45,400 --> 00:56:48,160
Speaker 1: Russell Gauge is on the bench. I thought he was

1054
00:56:48,480 --> 00:56:51,480
Speaker 1: possibly startable when Julio Jones was out, but not anymore.

1055
00:56:51,800 --> 00:56:54,279
Speaker 1: And hayden Hurst is a tough star because Zimmer has

1056
00:56:54,280 --> 00:56:58,600
Speaker 1: been brutally tough on tight ends. Over Minnesota's last thirty games.

1057
00:56:59,440 --> 00:57:01,759
Speaker 1: The Vikings have given up two tight end scores and

1058
00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:04,800
Speaker 1: to yard games to tight ends. That's it. So hayden

1059
00:57:04,880 --> 00:57:07,880
Speaker 1: Hurst is on the bench. That brings us to Todd Gurley,

1060
00:57:07,920 --> 00:57:11,439
Speaker 1: fresh off his first one hundred yard rushing performance, Since

1061
00:57:11,520 --> 00:57:15,120
Speaker 1: twenty eight the Vikings are allowing the seventh most rushing attempts,

1062
00:57:15,120 --> 00:57:17,920
Speaker 1: the seventh most rushing yards to opposing running backs, and

1063
00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:20,560
Speaker 1: starters are averaging eight yards and a score per game.

1064
00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:23,520
Speaker 1: Eight yards and a score per game puts Todd Gurley

1065
00:57:23,640 --> 00:57:26,200
Speaker 1: on a B grade. Let's go to the Viking side.

1066
00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:31,600
Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook is out Alexander Madison inherits. Dalvin's twenty one

1067
00:57:31,640 --> 00:57:35,400
Speaker 1: touches per game. Get this Madison last week, even though

1068
00:57:35,480 --> 00:57:37,439
Speaker 1: Dalvin got knocked out at what about the one third

1069
00:57:37,680 --> 00:57:40,960
Speaker 1: mark of the game, get twenty three touches in that game.

1070
00:57:41,880 --> 00:57:45,040
Speaker 1: It's a great opportunity for him. The Falcons are average

1071
00:57:45,040 --> 00:57:48,919
Speaker 1: against the run, but they've been a disaster through the air,

1072
00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:52,280
Speaker 1: as they have been for five straight seasons. They're giving

1073
00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:56,080
Speaker 1: up nine receptions to running backs on a per game basis,

1074
00:57:56,600 --> 00:58:00,320
Speaker 1: and the second most receiving yards sixty three through the air.

1075
00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:02,920
Speaker 1: If Madison is going to get most of those nine

1076
00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:06,240
Speaker 1: receptions in sixty three yards and then he chips in

1077
00:58:06,240 --> 00:58:11,480
Speaker 1: another sixty yards through the ground, Alexander Madison's in my

1078
00:58:11,560 --> 00:58:15,400
Speaker 1: top five. I think Moon is almost to take a

1079
00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:20,760
Speaker 1: chance on me, right. You could go with with Mike

1080
00:58:20,800 --> 00:58:23,480
Speaker 1: Boone here, just like you might have gone with Alexander Madison.

1081
00:58:24,040 --> 00:58:26,000
Speaker 1: To take a chance of the player in this matchup,

1082
00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:28,360
Speaker 1: Let's go to the passing game, where kirk Cousin gets

1083
00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:30,960
Speaker 1: a B. The average passing game against the Falcons is

1084
00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:34,800
Speaker 1: a staggering three forty five yards and three touchdowns. This

1085
00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:39,120
Speaker 1: is the most favorable quarterback matchup of any team, So

1086
00:58:39,200 --> 00:58:41,720
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins gets to be here, and considering there without

1087
00:58:41,800 --> 00:58:43,959
Speaker 1: d Alvin Cook, I do expect a few more pass

1088
00:58:44,040 --> 00:58:45,960
Speaker 1: It's not a lot. It'll still be run heavy for

1089
00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:48,160
Speaker 1: the Vikings, but there will be a few more passes

1090
00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:51,160
Speaker 1: to be had. And we saw Cousins throw fourteen more

1091
00:58:51,240 --> 00:58:54,600
Speaker 1: passes than usual on Sunday night when Cook got knocked

1092
00:58:54,600 --> 00:58:56,360
Speaker 1: out of that game. I'm not saying he's gonna get

1093
00:58:56,360 --> 00:58:58,000
Speaker 1: another fourteen here, but he might get half that. He

1094
00:58:58,040 --> 00:59:00,600
Speaker 1: might get a spare seven. And that makes kirk Cousins

1095
00:59:00,640 --> 00:59:03,720
Speaker 1: highly relevant in this game, so are his receivers. Adam

1096
00:59:03,760 --> 00:59:06,280
Speaker 1: Feelings absolutely in play here, with an A grade. In

1097
00:59:06,320 --> 00:59:08,760
Speaker 1: each of the past two games, Theland has seen double

1098
00:59:08,840 --> 00:59:12,360
Speaker 1: digit targets and tallied at least eighty yards. Atlanta's allowing

1099
00:59:12,360 --> 00:59:15,600
Speaker 1: a whopping two d fifteen yards per game to receivers.

1100
00:59:15,640 --> 00:59:17,960
Speaker 1: That's second most, and they've allowed a receiver to find

1101
00:59:17,960 --> 00:59:21,520
Speaker 1: the end zone in four of five games. Justin Jefferson

1102
00:59:21,560 --> 00:59:24,240
Speaker 1: gets a B grade Atlanta's secondary giving up two hundred

1103
00:59:24,280 --> 00:59:27,040
Speaker 1: fifteen yards to receivers. That gives him an opportunity to

1104
00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:29,240
Speaker 1: have a nice game here as well. It's no coincidence

1105
00:59:29,520 --> 00:59:35,320
Speaker 1: that Adam Feeling is surging since Justin Jefferson started to

1106
00:59:35,320 --> 00:59:38,840
Speaker 1: come Alive's good for the offense. It's good for the offense.

1107
00:59:38,960 --> 00:59:42,240
Speaker 1: You've got it. Irv Smith got more attention last week.

1108
00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:45,000
Speaker 1: I just I need to see more than one game.

1109
00:59:45,240 --> 00:59:47,920
Speaker 1: I'm not ready to but Falcons have been bad against

1110
00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:49,680
Speaker 1: tight ends. If you're in a pinch, you could go

1111
00:59:49,720 --> 00:59:53,720
Speaker 1: with IRV Smith here, but Kyle Rudolph. You could try

1112
00:59:53,760 --> 00:59:56,640
Speaker 1: Kyle Rudolph. But IRV Smith was the guy last week.

1113
00:59:56,680 --> 00:59:57,800
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's gonna be two in a

1114
00:59:57,840 --> 00:59:59,960
Speaker 1: row or not. I'm not ready to say that Hitness

1115
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:04,840
Speaker 1: necessarily will be when we come back. We'll continue through matchups,

1116
01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:09,120
Speaker 1: including Arizona at Dallas. Kenyan Drake, who looked at least

1117
01:00:09,120 --> 01:00:11,720
Speaker 1: okay last week, and he'd stay on track. We'll tell

1118
01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:16,000
Speaker 1: you a little bit about that matchup. Plus, if you

1124
01:00:51,680 --> 01:00:55,479
Speaker 1: Fantasy Football Weekly continues Bull Charge in Matt Harrison, Bryan

1125
01:00:55,560 --> 01:00:58,479
Speaker 1: Johnson with you. As I mentioned going into the break,

1126
01:00:58,560 --> 01:01:02,040
Speaker 1: Arizona takes on Dallas and Drake how maybe the most

1127
01:01:02,120 --> 01:01:05,720
Speaker 1: frustrating fantasy player this year that doesn't have an injury

1128
01:01:05,720 --> 01:01:08,920
Speaker 1: excuse that's been built in. It's been bad for him.

1129
01:01:08,960 --> 01:01:11,720
Speaker 1: Many people believe he's not the best starting running back

1130
01:01:11,800 --> 01:01:15,520
Speaker 1: in Arizona. Well, his excuses, I'm just not very good.

1131
01:01:15,920 --> 01:01:18,000
Speaker 1: Maybe that might be true. I've been harping on it

1132
01:01:18,080 --> 01:01:23,280
Speaker 1: all off season. He has an excuse, his excuses that

1133
01:01:23,320 --> 01:01:26,400
Speaker 1: you've been harping on exactly. He's very upset at me.

1134
01:01:27,280 --> 01:01:29,840
Speaker 1: But thirty three percent of his fantasy points last year

1135
01:01:29,880 --> 01:01:33,640
Speaker 1: came in two games. That's that's not good. That's not good.

1136
01:01:33,680 --> 01:01:37,360
Speaker 1: That's Spike weeks Um. I am giving both Chase Edmonds

1137
01:01:37,440 --> 01:01:41,280
Speaker 1: and Kenyan Drake c grades this week because it's lightly

1138
01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:44,160
Speaker 1: likely going to be pretty close to an even split,

1139
01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:47,400
Speaker 1: and Edmonds is closing that gap pretty quickly. Last week,

1140
01:01:47,520 --> 01:01:50,200
Speaker 1: Edmonds was on the field for forty of the plays

1141
01:01:51,240 --> 01:01:54,880
Speaker 1: and for the Cowboys since middle linebacker Layton vander Ash

1142
01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:58,360
Speaker 1: went down, the Cowboys are allowing five point three yards

1143
01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:01,439
Speaker 1: per carry two enemy backs. There's plenty to go around here.

1144
01:02:01,880 --> 01:02:04,600
Speaker 1: Drake isn't involved nearly at all in the passing game,

1145
01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:07,840
Speaker 1: so Edmonds would be the guy getting the plus added

1146
01:02:07,920 --> 01:02:09,720
Speaker 1: to the sea if we did those sorts of things

1147
01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:16,840
Speaker 1: that He's a c okay um Kyler, a Hopkins, a

1148
01:02:16,920 --> 01:02:20,360
Speaker 1: Christian Kirk. He gets a b uh. He seems fully

1149
01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:23,440
Speaker 1: healthy after notching seven targets five receptions in seventy eight

1150
01:02:23,520 --> 01:02:27,200
Speaker 1: yards last week in New York. Plus five boundary receivers

1151
01:02:27,240 --> 01:02:29,680
Speaker 1: have topped a hundred yards against the Cowboys this year,

1152
01:02:29,960 --> 01:02:32,840
Speaker 1: and O'Dell's eighty one yards and two scores don't count

1153
01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:35,680
Speaker 1: in that that list. I told you to pick up

1154
01:02:35,760 --> 01:02:37,960
Speaker 1: Christian Kirk two weeks ago. This is the start of

1155
01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:41,280
Speaker 1: the payoff right here. Let's go to the other side

1156
01:02:41,280 --> 01:02:43,760
Speaker 1: in the Dallas Way before you get away from Kyler Murray.

1157
01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:49,439
Speaker 1: Total number of players with more rushing touchdowns than Kyler Murray, Well,

1158
01:02:49,480 --> 01:02:51,560
Speaker 1: I remember last week I mentioned that he had the

1159
01:02:51,600 --> 01:02:55,400
Speaker 1: same amount as Alvin Kamara. One. Dalvin Cook is the

1160
01:02:55,440 --> 01:02:58,720
Speaker 1: only player with more rushing touchdowns than He's a top

1161
01:02:58,800 --> 01:03:02,000
Speaker 1: twelve running back. Now, that's probably right. I think he's

1162
01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:04,840
Speaker 1: sixty three yards on a touchdown per game. Ground sounds

1163
01:03:04,840 --> 01:03:08,720
Speaker 1: about right, uh, Ezekiel Elliott, I'm giving him an A grade. Honestly.

1164
01:03:08,760 --> 01:03:11,680
Speaker 1: This offense probably just goes through Zeke even more now

1165
01:03:12,000 --> 01:03:14,000
Speaker 1: and the Cards are allowing a hundred and fifty eight

1166
01:03:14,000 --> 01:03:17,520
Speaker 1: Comboy yards per game plus a touchdown to opposing backs,

1167
01:03:17,600 --> 01:03:20,320
Speaker 1: I think that all goes to Zeke. Here. Andy Dalton,

1168
01:03:20,440 --> 01:03:23,360
Speaker 1: he's the new dude. I'm gonna give him a be

1169
01:03:23,720 --> 01:03:26,720
Speaker 1: This offense is still very solid and sound, and he

1170
01:03:26,800 --> 01:03:28,640
Speaker 1: was here to take a chance on me quarterback, wasn't

1171
01:03:28,640 --> 01:03:32,040
Speaker 1: He charge was awesome? Umari Cooper, He's getting an A

1172
01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:35,160
Speaker 1: grade in this one. Giants corner James Bradberry shut him

1173
01:03:35,160 --> 01:03:38,200
Speaker 1: down last week. But Pat Pete is not the Pat

1174
01:03:38,240 --> 01:03:41,560
Speaker 1: Pete of old. He's allowed some huge games already this year.

1175
01:03:41,640 --> 01:03:45,040
Speaker 1: Is Terry McLaurin had the most notable one, where he

1176
01:03:45,040 --> 01:03:50,200
Speaker 1: went for seven and one in Peterson's coverage. Michael Gallop

1177
01:03:50,240 --> 01:03:53,320
Speaker 1: and Ceedee Lamb both solid Bees in this game. Gallop

1178
01:03:53,360 --> 01:03:55,560
Speaker 1: looked like Dalton's favorite target at the tail end of

1179
01:03:55,600 --> 01:03:59,479
Speaker 1: the Giants game with two acrobatic catches. Uh. The two

1180
01:03:59,480 --> 01:04:01,960
Speaker 1: hooked up for three catches and sixty five yards in

1181
01:04:01,960 --> 01:04:05,160
Speaker 1: the second half, and Lamb has between five and eight

1182
01:04:05,200 --> 01:04:08,960
Speaker 1: receptions in every game. He's just super solid. And Jamison

1183
01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:11,680
Speaker 1: Crowder just dinged up the secondary from the slot to

1184
01:04:11,760 --> 01:04:14,640
Speaker 1: the tune of eight catches for one sixteen and a score.

1185
01:04:14,840 --> 01:04:17,920
Speaker 1: You know what, Ceedee Lambs in a grade too, all right,

1186
01:04:18,040 --> 01:04:20,320
Speaker 1: Dalton Schultz. But but if he's an A grade, then

1187
01:04:20,320 --> 01:04:24,280
Speaker 1: we can't give the A, B, two C D. That's

1188
01:04:24,320 --> 01:04:28,400
Speaker 1: the sad making an A grade. I'm sorry, um, Dalton Schultz,

1189
01:04:28,400 --> 01:04:30,640
Speaker 1: he gets a C grade. I'm a little bit nervous

1190
01:04:30,640 --> 01:04:33,240
Speaker 1: that Schultz's production will go down a little bit under

1191
01:04:33,280 --> 01:04:37,080
Speaker 1: a new quarterback. He's currently eight in both targets and

1192
01:04:37,120 --> 01:04:40,320
Speaker 1: receptions among tight ends. But the Cards have been very

1193
01:04:40,320 --> 01:04:43,280
Speaker 1: good against the tight end this year, unlike last year. UH,

1194
01:04:43,320 --> 01:04:45,760
Speaker 1: they're only allowing four catches for forty three yards in

1195
01:04:45,800 --> 01:04:50,200
Speaker 1: one score on the year. Remember when the Cardinals were

1196
01:04:50,200 --> 01:04:56,040
Speaker 1: in the NFC East. This was an old NFC that

1197
01:04:56,320 --> 01:04:59,760
Speaker 1: kindled rivalry from the NFC East. You know, they were St.

1198
01:04:59,840 --> 01:05:02,320
Speaker 1: Loui Cardinals at that point. To Ram, no, they weren't.

1199
01:05:02,440 --> 01:05:05,240
Speaker 1: And then they moved. There were the Chicago Cardinals. Well yeah,

1200
01:05:05,280 --> 01:05:09,680
Speaker 1: but I'm talking about Arizona. But they had just moved.

1201
01:05:09,680 --> 01:05:12,160
Speaker 1: They didn't realign at that point. When I was a kid,

1202
01:05:12,240 --> 01:05:17,960
Speaker 1: I collected Ricky Prole. Oh yeah, yeah, he was some

1203
01:05:18,040 --> 01:05:21,200
Speaker 1: Ricky Prole cards. He was really good. I was convinced

1204
01:05:21,240 --> 01:05:23,400
Speaker 1: he was going to be like a notable player, head

1205
01:05:23,520 --> 01:05:25,240
Speaker 1: up for a big career, and I was gonna cash you.

1206
01:05:25,520 --> 01:05:29,880
Speaker 1: David Boston was going to be that guy. Oh one.

1207
01:05:30,280 --> 01:05:33,919
Speaker 1: The only thing I really remember about him is him

1208
01:05:33,960 --> 01:05:38,919
Speaker 1: complaining because defenders were tearing his nipple rings out. Poor guy,

1209
01:05:39,080 --> 01:05:41,640
Speaker 1: Valid Valid complain, Maybe you don't play with your nipple

1210
01:05:41,720 --> 01:05:45,360
Speaker 1: rings in just just an idea. Don't the shoulder pads

1211
01:05:45,360 --> 01:05:48,840
Speaker 1: protect your nipple rings? Apparently not, I don't nipple pads.

1212
01:05:50,000 --> 01:05:56,320
Speaker 1: Ram ram rams take on the San Francisco Los Angeles

1213
01:05:56,320 --> 01:06:00,720
Speaker 1: has added cam Acres to the league's most befuddling backfield.

1214
01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:05,240
Speaker 1: What do you do now, Brian, Yeah it Darryl Henderson

1215
01:06:05,320 --> 01:06:07,520
Speaker 1: still the lead back. Just gonna give him the see

1216
01:06:07,520 --> 01:06:09,360
Speaker 1: he gets the only starting grade. He led the l

1217
01:06:09,400 --> 01:06:12,520
Speaker 1: a backfield and snaps last week. Scored twice, but we

1218
01:06:12,560 --> 01:06:14,600
Speaker 1: still saw a fair amount of Malcolm Brown and like

1219
01:06:14,640 --> 01:06:18,160
Speaker 1: you said, charge was worked into the mix even more.

1220
01:06:18,800 --> 01:06:21,920
Speaker 1: And despite injuries to Nick Bosa and Solomon Thomas, the

1221
01:06:22,000 --> 01:06:25,800
Speaker 1: forty Niners are still suffocating opposing backs, allowing only sixty

1222
01:06:25,840 --> 01:06:28,960
Speaker 1: three rushing yards per game to the position. That's third fewest.

1223
01:06:29,640 --> 01:06:33,800
Speaker 1: Uh No back has top sixty rushing yards against San Francisco.

1224
01:06:33,960 --> 01:06:36,280
Speaker 1: Henderson his fourth and red zone carries among all backs,

1225
01:06:36,280 --> 01:06:38,520
Speaker 1: so hopefully he'd get the goal line plunge. I will

1226
01:06:38,520 --> 01:06:40,280
Speaker 1: give him a seat here, but there's a lot to

1227
01:06:40,320 --> 01:06:42,680
Speaker 1: be worried about when it comes to Darryl Henderson over

1228
01:06:42,760 --> 01:06:44,880
Speaker 1: the receiving game for the Rams Cooper Cup. Gonna give

1229
01:06:44,920 --> 01:06:47,560
Speaker 1: him a be has at least seven targets and sixty

1230
01:06:47,600 --> 01:06:49,800
Speaker 1: five yards in each of his past three games. He's

1231
01:06:49,840 --> 01:06:53,040
Speaker 1: basically the safest ram there is. He's also scored in

1232
01:06:53,040 --> 01:06:56,120
Speaker 1: two of the last three games. His history against the

1233
01:06:56,240 --> 01:06:59,480
Speaker 1: Niners kind of sucks though has never top thirty one yards,

1234
01:06:59,680 --> 01:07:02,880
Speaker 1: but he end the forty Niners secondary ravage by injuries.

1235
01:07:03,000 --> 01:07:05,840
Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick just feasted on them for three and fifty

1236
01:07:05,920 --> 01:07:08,760
Speaker 1: yards and three scores. So Cup gets a B and

1237
01:07:08,800 --> 01:07:11,240
Speaker 1: I'm still gonna give Robert Woods the starting game with

1238
01:07:11,280 --> 01:07:13,800
Speaker 1: the seed despite seeing just six targets per game over

1239
01:07:13,800 --> 01:07:16,760
Speaker 1: his last four. He needs more volume, but he has

1240
01:07:16,760 --> 01:07:20,080
Speaker 1: a favorable matchup against a Kello Witherspoon who is allowing

1241
01:07:20,120 --> 01:07:22,720
Speaker 1: a passer rating of a hundred forty eight in his coverage.

1242
01:07:23,080 --> 01:07:25,040
Speaker 1: And for what it's worth, Woods had eight catches for

1243
01:07:25,040 --> 01:07:27,520
Speaker 1: a hundred and seventeen yards when these teams last met

1244
01:07:27,520 --> 01:07:31,960
Speaker 1: in Week sixteen last season. Over to Tyler Higbee, man,

1245
01:07:32,200 --> 01:07:33,680
Speaker 1: I'm close to a bench here. I will give him

1246
01:07:33,680 --> 01:07:35,200
Speaker 1: a seed just because it's a bye week and there's

1247
01:07:35,200 --> 01:07:37,120
Speaker 1: not a lot to work with the tight end. If

1248
01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:39,440
Speaker 1: you take out his three touchdown game in Week two

1249
01:07:39,520 --> 01:07:43,720
Speaker 1: against the Eagles disaster, he's averaging two point five catches

1250
01:07:43,720 --> 01:07:46,240
Speaker 1: and twenty eight yards with no touchdowns. I can't do it,

1251
01:07:46,520 --> 01:07:48,400
Speaker 1: I know. And the matchup is not great against the

1252
01:07:48,440 --> 01:07:51,160
Speaker 1: forty Niners. They're one of ten teams to surrender less

1253
01:07:51,160 --> 01:07:53,560
Speaker 1: than two hundred yards to a posting tight ends so far.

1254
01:07:54,240 --> 01:07:57,520
Speaker 1: That said, San Francisco just surrendered six catches ninety four

1255
01:07:57,600 --> 01:07:59,919
Speaker 1: yards and his score to Miami's tight ends last week.

1256
01:08:00,280 --> 01:08:02,200
Speaker 1: He could be had nine catches for one oh four

1257
01:08:02,240 --> 01:08:04,640
Speaker 1: in that week sixteen games. So if you have a

1258
01:08:04,680 --> 01:08:06,840
Speaker 1: better option, Ben Jacob, but I'll still give him a

1259
01:08:06,920 --> 01:08:09,720
Speaker 1: very very very soft sea here. And Jared Goff, I'm

1260
01:08:09,720 --> 01:08:11,680
Speaker 1: just gonna give him a C as well. He did

1261
01:08:11,680 --> 01:08:13,720
Speaker 1: go off for three twenty three and two when these

1262
01:08:13,720 --> 01:08:16,880
Speaker 1: teams last met in late December. Already mentioned that Stu

1263
01:08:17,000 --> 01:08:21,200
Speaker 1: Beard smacked him down um forty that is last week,

1264
01:08:21,280 --> 01:08:23,400
Speaker 1: and San Francisco is prior three games that were shutting

1265
01:08:23,400 --> 01:08:26,240
Speaker 1: down opposing quarterbacks, but they were playing the NFC East

1266
01:08:26,240 --> 01:08:29,559
Speaker 1: in those three games. That's the j V of the

1267
01:08:29,720 --> 01:08:32,479
Speaker 1: NFL over to the San Francisco side. Not a ton

1268
01:08:32,520 --> 01:08:34,360
Speaker 1: to talk about here, George Kiddle will give him a B.

1269
01:08:34,680 --> 01:08:37,240
Speaker 1: The Ram seven only allowed the eighth most yards at

1270
01:08:37,320 --> 01:08:40,599
Speaker 1: tight ends, but they have yielded the sixth most targets

1271
01:08:40,640 --> 01:08:43,559
Speaker 1: to the position, so a player of Kittle's caliber should

1272
01:08:43,560 --> 01:08:46,360
Speaker 1: be able to capitalize on his opportunities. Uh. He played

1273
01:08:46,360 --> 01:08:48,800
Speaker 1: in both games against the Rams last year logged two

1274
01:08:48,800 --> 01:08:51,519
Speaker 1: solid stat lines eight catches for a hundred and three

1275
01:08:51,560 --> 01:08:54,360
Speaker 1: yards and then five catches for seventy nine yards and

1276
01:08:54,400 --> 01:08:56,880
Speaker 1: a touchdown. Pretty safe floor for Kittle if he's on

1277
01:08:56,880 --> 01:08:59,479
Speaker 1: the field, no matter who he plays. Deebo, Samuel and

1278
01:08:59,479 --> 01:09:02,720
Speaker 1: Brandon I look both on the bench. Opposing wide receivers

1279
01:09:02,720 --> 01:09:04,960
Speaker 1: are averaging less than twelve catches and a hundred and

1280
01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:08,400
Speaker 1: thirty five yards per game has a whole against the

1281
01:09:08,520 --> 01:09:11,120
Speaker 1: Rams this year. Only two wide receivers have managed to

1282
01:09:11,120 --> 01:09:14,320
Speaker 1: top eighty yards. Only one wide receiver has scored against

1283
01:09:14,320 --> 01:09:16,880
Speaker 1: the Rams. That was Stefon Diggs. So Samuel and a

1284
01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:19,719
Speaker 1: Yuk on the bench, and so is Jimmy g uh.

1285
01:09:19,760 --> 01:09:22,360
Speaker 1: He should make his return this week. I expected to

1286
01:09:22,360 --> 01:09:25,439
Speaker 1: start only totally one passing touchdown across two games against

1287
01:09:25,439 --> 01:09:27,280
Speaker 1: the Rams last year. And the last time he played,

1288
01:09:27,439 --> 01:09:31,920
Speaker 1: he looked like dog s he he did. Yeah, not

1289
01:09:32,000 --> 01:09:34,120
Speaker 1: because of injury. You looked alf So you know. They

1290
01:09:34,120 --> 01:09:36,960
Speaker 1: claimed that the ankle wasn't right, but there was a

1291
01:09:36,960 --> 01:09:39,559
Speaker 1: lot not going right with Jimmy Garoppolo. And lastly, let

1292
01:09:39,560 --> 01:09:41,840
Speaker 1: me mention raheem most real quick, I'm gonna put him

1293
01:09:41,840 --> 01:09:43,759
Speaker 1: on the bench. He did take over lead back duties

1294
01:09:44,040 --> 01:09:47,400
Speaker 1: uh last week, but it's a tough matchup. Since Week three,

1295
01:09:47,640 --> 01:09:50,920
Speaker 1: l A has held opposing running backs to sixty nine

1296
01:09:52,000 --> 01:09:54,720
Speaker 1: rushing yards per game, and no back has scored via

1297
01:09:54,800 --> 01:10:00,840
Speaker 1: ground or aired during that span. Oh okay, when we

1298
01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:02,880
Speaker 1: come back, I was trying to decide if I wanted

1299
01:10:02,920 --> 01:10:04,960
Speaker 1: to get Kansas City Buffalo into this one or the

1300
01:10:05,000 --> 01:10:08,320
Speaker 1: next one. I think we got time. We got time.

1301
01:10:08,320 --> 01:10:10,040
Speaker 1: We'll do it. We'll do it next, We'll do it

1302
01:10:10,080 --> 01:10:12,920
Speaker 1: next segment. We'll tell you what to expect. Icole Hardman

1303
01:10:13,640 --> 01:10:16,519
Speaker 1: steps in for Sammy Watkins. Is he a guy you

1304
01:10:16,520 --> 01:10:19,160
Speaker 1: can pick up and play? My fingers are crossed. You'll

1305
01:10:19,160 --> 01:10:22,080
Speaker 1: get to find out. Next segment. Video game, video games.

1306
01:10:23,000 --> 01:10:28,320
Speaker 1: That's my other show. Video game number is Yeah, we'll

1307
01:10:28,360 --> 01:10:31,760
Speaker 1: go with that. Fantasy Football Weekly returns when we come back.

1308
01:10:57,600 --> 01:11:02,800
Speaker 1: Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly Finals segment. As we do

1309
01:11:03,000 --> 01:11:05,840
Speaker 1: in every final segment of the show, we begin with

1310
01:11:06,560 --> 01:11:09,599
Speaker 1: premature speculation up. Paul Charchie can follow me on Twitter

1311
01:11:09,720 --> 01:11:12,280
Speaker 1: at Paul Jarchi and my co hosts are Brian Johnson

1312
01:11:12,320 --> 01:11:17,640
Speaker 1: at b t x J and Matt Harrison at Explosive

1313
01:11:17,680 --> 01:11:20,000
Speaker 1: Output on Twitter and by the way, if you're some

1314
01:11:20,120 --> 01:11:22,080
Speaker 1: kind of up and coming enterprise out there and you

1315
01:11:22,120 --> 01:11:26,040
Speaker 1: want b t x J, it's for sale. Definitely for sale,

1316
01:11:26,080 --> 01:11:29,880
Speaker 1: because it's a rarity now to have a four letter

1317
01:11:29,960 --> 01:11:32,320
Speaker 1: they're all gone. You can't get a four digit. No.

1318
01:11:32,400 --> 01:11:33,960
Speaker 1: I don't think you can Twitter handle it. I don't.

1319
01:11:34,000 --> 01:11:36,600
Speaker 1: I don't think you can. It's I don't know. I

1320
01:11:36,600 --> 01:11:39,120
Speaker 1: don't know what the resale value of b t x

1321
01:11:39,200 --> 01:11:40,880
Speaker 1: J would be. I mean it sounds like it could

1322
01:11:40,880 --> 01:11:43,439
Speaker 1: be a stock ticker symbol. Well, like your your best

1323
01:11:43,479 --> 01:11:48,800
Speaker 1: hope is that, like you know, Boston Jerry, I don't know,

1324
01:11:48,960 --> 01:11:52,920
Speaker 1: some some company with has those letters goes public, Boston

1325
01:11:53,160 --> 01:11:58,040
Speaker 1: Technical X ray Corp. Yeah, your operation, we'll go with that.

1326
01:11:59,400 --> 01:12:02,760
Speaker 1: Prematures Avaculation. These are three players we believe you want

1327
01:12:02,760 --> 01:12:06,120
Speaker 1: to pick up this week that will end up being

1328
01:12:06,120 --> 01:12:08,200
Speaker 1: in high demand next week. But they're already going to

1329
01:12:08,240 --> 01:12:10,920
Speaker 1: be on your team because we've used we've used the

1330
01:12:11,000 --> 01:12:15,759
Speaker 1: time machine obviously, because I've used that, reached an example

1331
01:12:15,800 --> 01:12:21,320
Speaker 1: of success with this segment. Um, Yeah, that would be

1332
01:12:21,400 --> 01:12:24,000
Speaker 1: Chase Claypool. Good job, Scott Fish. Tip of the hat

1333
01:12:24,040 --> 01:12:26,639
Speaker 1: to Scott Fish. All right, Brian, who is your premature

1334
01:12:26,640 --> 01:12:29,120
Speaker 1: speculation player. All Right, I don't have a ton of

1335
01:12:29,280 --> 01:12:32,479
Speaker 1: fancy stats to throw at you here about Philip Rivers,

1336
01:12:32,520 --> 01:12:36,400
Speaker 1: other than so far he has four passing touchdowns and

1337
01:12:36,760 --> 01:12:39,920
Speaker 1: five interceptions. I'm not saying to pick up Philip Rivers,

1338
01:12:39,920 --> 01:12:43,559
Speaker 1: but leading into my prespect. Okay, alright, okay, good, I've

1339
01:12:43,560 --> 01:12:46,559
Speaker 1: watched dodged a bullet there, thought I need a new

1340
01:12:46,600 --> 01:12:49,680
Speaker 1: co host. I've watched more Colts than I would have

1341
01:12:49,720 --> 01:12:51,200
Speaker 1: liked you. So far. They are a good team, but

1342
01:12:51,200 --> 01:12:53,760
Speaker 1: it's not because of Philip Rivers. He essentially throws the

1343
01:12:53,800 --> 01:12:56,519
Speaker 1: ball into the ground or away from the receiver. Imagine

1344
01:12:56,560 --> 01:13:00,559
Speaker 1: like Magneto from the X Men with anti magnetic powers,

1345
01:13:00,640 --> 01:13:03,400
Speaker 1: and you throw a magnet at him. That's like Philip

1346
01:13:03,520 --> 01:13:06,519
Speaker 1: Rivers trying to hit t Y Hilton downfield. Who who

1347
01:13:06,720 --> 01:13:09,519
Speaker 1: is your who is your premature? Took Kobe Brissette because

1348
01:13:09,560 --> 01:13:12,000
Speaker 1: if the Colts want to get serious about making a

1349
01:13:12,040 --> 01:13:14,160
Speaker 1: deep playoff run him being a real contender, they have

1350
01:13:14,240 --> 01:13:17,840
Speaker 1: to get geriatric Philip Rivers out from under center. Put

1351
01:13:17,840 --> 01:13:21,439
Speaker 1: in Jegobi Brissette, who has proven he is able NFL

1352
01:13:21,520 --> 01:13:26,759
Speaker 1: quarterback with well, have you watched Philip whatever he has

1353
01:13:26,800 --> 01:13:30,320
Speaker 1: been bad? He beyond bad and they're trying to save

1354
01:13:30,400 --> 01:13:32,960
Speaker 1: egg on their face and indie. So in super flex leagues,

1355
01:13:33,280 --> 01:13:36,720
Speaker 1: if you're media quarterback, just stashed Brissette now because he

1356
01:13:36,800 --> 01:13:39,479
Speaker 1: deserves a shot because the Rivers. It's awful. It's a

1357
01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:41,920
Speaker 1: it's a sign when the head coach has to spend

1358
01:13:42,000 --> 01:13:45,840
Speaker 1: his week explaining who his quarterback is going to be

1359
01:13:45,840 --> 01:13:47,800
Speaker 1: in the next game. So I actually think you're right

1360
01:13:47,800 --> 01:13:49,960
Speaker 1: if you're in a two quarterback league or QB flex

1361
01:13:50,080 --> 01:13:52,120
Speaker 1: lead league where these guys are at a premium and

1362
01:13:52,160 --> 01:13:54,280
Speaker 1: you're just trying to find a warm body playing quarterback

1363
01:13:54,960 --> 01:13:58,040
Speaker 1: the next the next quarterback, the next backup who probably

1364
01:13:58,040 --> 01:14:01,280
Speaker 1: gets about non injury. Yeah, good chances, right, Yeah, definitely.

1365
01:14:01,320 --> 01:14:03,680
Speaker 1: How about some fantasy trades in real life since the

1366
01:14:03,680 --> 01:14:05,800
Speaker 1: trade deadlines not for a couple of weeks. Still, what

1367
01:14:05,880 --> 01:14:09,160
Speaker 1: about Matt Ryan to the Colts? That would be kind

1368
01:14:09,200 --> 01:14:13,240
Speaker 1: of interesting for a rebuild. And Falcons lose this week,

1369
01:14:13,360 --> 01:14:16,719
Speaker 1: they are absolutely they're going quarterback. They're going Trevor Lawrence.

1370
01:14:16,760 --> 01:14:20,280
Speaker 1: You're gonna go Trevor Lawrence. So they're checked out. How

1371
01:14:20,320 --> 01:14:26,679
Speaker 1: about this the reunition reunition, I can dig it. Carson

1372
01:14:26,760 --> 01:14:31,760
Speaker 1: Wentz and Frank Reich. The Eagles love to trade their quarterbacks.

1373
01:14:32,000 --> 01:14:35,200
Speaker 1: It could happen. It could. I'm not I wouldn't rule

1374
01:14:35,240 --> 01:14:38,759
Speaker 1: anything out right now. Uh, Matt, you're premature speculation player.

1375
01:14:39,240 --> 01:14:41,920
Speaker 1: Mike Williams is my guy, and it might be slightly

1376
01:14:42,080 --> 01:14:45,280
Speaker 1: late to premature speculate as Italian a hundred nine yards

1377
01:14:45,320 --> 01:14:48,439
Speaker 1: and two scores last Monday in New Orleans. However, the

1378
01:14:48,560 --> 01:14:50,720
Speaker 1: Chargers are on a bye this week, which kind of

1379
01:14:50,760 --> 01:14:53,960
Speaker 1: depressed the pickups in many leagues. Um in ESPN, he

1380
01:14:54,000 --> 01:14:57,479
Speaker 1: went from thirty four percent owned before Waivers ran to

1381
01:14:57,600 --> 01:15:01,200
Speaker 1: only owned, so there's still some room here. Out of

1382
01:15:01,240 --> 01:15:05,360
Speaker 1: there by they get Jacksonville, Denver, and Vegas, all of

1383
01:15:05,400 --> 01:15:08,599
Speaker 1: which are really good matchups for the wide receiver. By

1384
01:15:08,640 --> 01:15:11,280
Speaker 1: the way, the Chargers do not have a difficult passing

1385
01:15:11,320 --> 01:15:14,920
Speaker 1: matchup on their schedule the rest of the fantasy year.

1386
01:15:15,120 --> 01:15:18,840
Speaker 1: Their next difficult matchup is Week seventeen against Kansas City.

1387
01:15:18,880 --> 01:15:22,960
Speaker 1: We're not playing and that includes a playoff run of Atlanta, Vegas,

1388
01:15:23,000 --> 01:15:30,560
Speaker 1: and Denver again. Pick up Chargers passing game right now. Foolishly,

1389
01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:34,680
Speaker 1: many fantasy owners have given up on Zack Moss. You're

1390
01:15:34,680 --> 01:15:37,000
Speaker 1: going to regret the man decision. He is being dropped

1391
01:15:37,000 --> 01:15:40,000
Speaker 1: outright in many, many fantasy leagues. I'd like to remind

1392
01:15:40,000 --> 01:15:43,200
Speaker 1: you of how Zach Moss this season is gone. Week one,

1393
01:15:43,439 --> 01:15:47,360
Speaker 1: his very first NFL experience, he scored a touchdown. Week two,

1394
01:15:47,520 --> 01:15:50,559
Speaker 1: he suffered a turftoe injury. Hasn't seen the field since.

1395
01:15:50,960 --> 01:15:54,679
Speaker 1: He comes back now to an offense that has tried

1396
01:15:54,720 --> 01:15:57,800
Speaker 1: to run with Devin Singletary, and as he proved on

1397
01:15:57,880 --> 01:16:01,200
Speaker 1: Tuesday Night, Devin Singletary is not meant to be a

1398
01:16:01,240 --> 01:16:04,879
Speaker 1: workhorse back. Ain't happen. He is a change of pace back, period,

1399
01:16:05,040 --> 01:16:08,360
Speaker 1: end of story. The reason they drafted Zack Moss was

1400
01:16:08,479 --> 01:16:11,280
Speaker 1: for him to be the lead back and single to

1401
01:16:11,479 --> 01:16:15,439
Speaker 1: Singletary to be the change of pace guy. So Zack

1402
01:16:15,520 --> 01:16:18,240
Speaker 1: Moss being dropped all those places, he is available now.

1403
01:16:18,320 --> 01:16:20,320
Speaker 1: And for people who think he's not good because you

1404
01:16:20,320 --> 01:16:24,000
Speaker 1: really haven't seen him yet, I'll remind you that last

1405
01:16:24,080 --> 01:16:28,720
Speaker 1: year alone, at a college season, he put up fifteen

1406
01:16:28,840 --> 01:16:32,000
Speaker 1: hundred yards and fifteen touchdowns and was named the Pack

1407
01:16:32,120 --> 01:16:35,639
Speaker 1: twelve Offensive Player of the Year. He is really good.

1408
01:16:36,080 --> 01:16:38,639
Speaker 1: He can catch, he can run inside, and he would

1409
01:16:38,640 --> 01:16:41,599
Speaker 1: be the goal line running back for the Buffalo Bills.

1410
01:16:41,760 --> 01:16:44,519
Speaker 1: Zack Moss now chart I know your favorite kid is

1411
01:16:44,640 --> 01:16:47,599
Speaker 1: Jono Smith, but Zack Moss has got to be pretty

1412
01:16:47,600 --> 01:16:50,680
Speaker 1: close to second. And and you're you're just you've just

1413
01:16:50,760 --> 01:16:52,840
Speaker 1: had him in the in the hospital for a while.

1414
01:16:52,880 --> 01:16:56,519
Speaker 1: And that Matt tried to lowball me on Zack Moss

1415
01:16:56,560 --> 01:17:00,080
Speaker 1: the other day and ried to you, you have the

1416
01:17:00,120 --> 01:17:04,160
Speaker 1: explosive output name. Well, I can't help him. See, That's

1417
01:17:04,200 --> 01:17:10,880
Speaker 1: why he always thinks my trade things are terrible. Trade

1418
01:17:10,960 --> 01:17:13,280
Speaker 1: with you anymore. All right, let's get to our final

1419
01:17:13,320 --> 01:17:16,360
Speaker 1: set of matchups, including Kansas City taking on Buffalo for

1420
01:17:16,479 --> 01:17:20,040
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes, Tyreek Hill, and Travis Kelsey A grades across

1421
01:17:20,080 --> 01:17:21,599
Speaker 1: the board, but let me tell you, I get very

1422
01:17:21,680 --> 01:17:25,000
Speaker 1: close to giving Patrick Mahomes the rare B grade for him.

1423
01:17:25,560 --> 01:17:28,240
Speaker 1: This offensive line has not played well and starting guard

1424
01:17:28,280 --> 01:17:31,799
Speaker 1: Collecchio smile tore tendons in both knees. He's out, Sammy

1425
01:17:31,880 --> 01:17:34,599
Speaker 1: Watkins is out. And the Bills should have star cornerback

1426
01:17:34,640 --> 01:17:36,920
Speaker 1: tradevious White back. I mean this is this does not

1427
01:17:37,080 --> 01:17:40,960
Speaker 1: bode well for this Kansas City passing attack. Fortunately for Mahomes,

1428
01:17:41,400 --> 01:17:43,760
Speaker 1: his most important wide receiver, Tyreek Hill, works out of

1429
01:17:43,800 --> 01:17:47,120
Speaker 1: the slot a lot, and the one place trade Avious

1430
01:17:47,120 --> 01:17:48,960
Speaker 1: White doesn't go is he does not play the slot,

1431
01:17:49,479 --> 01:17:52,240
Speaker 1: So Hill is going to face a far easier matchup

1432
01:17:52,320 --> 01:17:55,400
Speaker 1: against Terron Johnson, who allows a passer rating of one

1433
01:17:55,479 --> 01:17:59,360
Speaker 1: hundred four in his coverage. But mahomes Is most exploitable

1434
01:17:59,400 --> 01:18:03,280
Speaker 1: matchup is with Travis Kelsey against the league's worst tight

1435
01:18:03,400 --> 01:18:07,120
Speaker 1: end defense. The Bills rank dead last in tight end

1436
01:18:07,200 --> 01:18:11,679
Speaker 1: receptions allowed, dead last in tight end yards allowed. Monster

1437
01:18:11,880 --> 01:18:15,240
Speaker 1: game coming from Travis Kelsey, and that is why Patrick

1438
01:18:15,280 --> 01:18:19,439
Speaker 1: Mahomes retains an A grade. Nicole Hardman is a potential

1439
01:18:19,520 --> 01:18:22,080
Speaker 1: starter here with Sammy Watkins out, he should see an

1440
01:18:22,160 --> 01:18:25,040
Speaker 1: uptick in usage. Last week with Watkins missing much of

1441
01:18:25,080 --> 01:18:28,360
Speaker 1: the game, Nicole Hardman posted season highs and snap count

1442
01:18:28,640 --> 01:18:33,200
Speaker 1: and play percentage. Where Hardman gets tricky is he'll thout

1443
01:18:33,280 --> 01:18:37,160
Speaker 1: draw Tradavius White on the outside. It's not a matchup.

1444
01:18:37,200 --> 01:18:42,439
Speaker 1: I want so watch trads White's injury status. If White

1445
01:18:42,560 --> 01:18:45,320
Speaker 1: doesn't go, will bump Hardman up to a B. If

1446
01:18:45,360 --> 01:18:48,040
Speaker 1: Tredavius White is going, then I think Nicole Hardman is

1447
01:18:48,120 --> 01:18:50,920
Speaker 1: nothing more than a dart throw CE grade and you're

1448
01:18:50,960 --> 01:18:53,440
Speaker 1: probably best off leaving him on the bench because Tradevias

1449
01:18:53,439 --> 01:18:58,080
Speaker 1: White is awesome. Let's go to the Buffalo side of

1450
01:18:58,120 --> 01:19:02,400
Speaker 1: this matchup. We'll begin with Josh Allen. Until last Tuesday,

1451
01:19:02,760 --> 01:19:05,160
Speaker 1: well really up and through this week, Alan has faced

1452
01:19:05,280 --> 01:19:08,479
Speaker 1: arguably the league's easiest passing schedule, so it's a little

1453
01:19:08,520 --> 01:19:10,519
Speaker 1: concerning that he regrets against the Titans, and he now

1454
01:19:10,600 --> 01:19:13,920
Speaker 1: faces the best past defense you've seen this year Kansas City.

1455
01:19:14,240 --> 01:19:16,840
Speaker 1: The chief secondaries at full strength with the return of

1456
01:19:16,880 --> 01:19:19,200
Speaker 1: Brashad Breland will talk about more in a minute, and

1457
01:19:19,240 --> 01:19:22,360
Speaker 1: Allen's receivers will face solid coverage at all points of

1458
01:19:22,400 --> 01:19:25,400
Speaker 1: the field. The Chiefs are allowing only two hundred thirty

1459
01:19:25,520 --> 01:19:28,800
Speaker 1: nine passing yards per game. That's six best, and prior

1460
01:19:28,840 --> 01:19:31,880
Speaker 1: to their laps against Derek Carr last week, inexplicable laps.

1461
01:19:32,000 --> 01:19:34,920
Speaker 1: Might I add, no quarterback had thrown for more than

1462
01:19:35,000 --> 01:19:37,439
Speaker 1: one touchdown in a game against the Chiefs, So I

1463
01:19:37,560 --> 01:19:40,439
Speaker 1: have just a B grade on Josh Allen in this game.

1464
01:19:40,720 --> 01:19:43,160
Speaker 1: Be great on Steph Diggs. Through five games, he ranks

1465
01:19:43,240 --> 01:19:46,400
Speaker 1: fourth in reception, second in yards, and likely won't slow

1466
01:19:46,439 --> 01:19:49,120
Speaker 1: down this week, especially if John Brown continues to miss games.

1467
01:19:49,160 --> 01:19:50,800
Speaker 1: And we think John Brown is going to go into

1468
01:19:50,880 --> 01:19:53,439
Speaker 1: this one. He's off the injury report. Kansas City has

1469
01:19:53,479 --> 01:19:57,160
Speaker 1: surrendered the seventh fewest fantasy points to opposing receivers, and

1470
01:19:57,439 --> 01:20:01,160
Speaker 1: dig should face chart various West most oftening coverage. He's

1471
01:20:01,160 --> 01:20:03,639
Speaker 1: been mostly good, but he did yield ninety two yards

1472
01:20:03,680 --> 01:20:05,960
Speaker 1: in his score last week against Oakland. But mostly he's

1473
01:20:06,000 --> 01:20:08,559
Speaker 1: been a lot better than that. Be great on Steph Diggs.

1474
01:20:09,120 --> 01:20:11,439
Speaker 1: Let's go to John Brown off the injury report, but

1475
01:20:11,800 --> 01:20:14,200
Speaker 1: you do want to just stay alert here because calf

1476
01:20:14,240 --> 01:20:16,800
Speaker 1: injuries do tend to flare up at the last minute. Now.

1477
01:20:16,880 --> 01:20:19,439
Speaker 1: Prior to his injuries, Brown was great in weeks one

1478
01:20:19,479 --> 01:20:21,400
Speaker 1: and two. As a reminder, he scored in both games.

1479
01:20:21,880 --> 01:20:25,000
Speaker 1: He runs predominantly from the outside, where he'll most often

1480
01:20:25,080 --> 01:20:29,040
Speaker 1: match up against bad Brian, probably the best coverage corner

1481
01:20:29,160 --> 01:20:32,920
Speaker 1: that the Chiefs have. In Briland's one game back from suspension,

1482
01:20:32,960 --> 01:20:36,599
Speaker 1: you may remember Bishad Brian Marian self described marijuana enthusiasm

1483
01:20:36,920 --> 01:20:42,120
Speaker 1: missed four games due to suspension for marijuana. Yeah, oddly enough, UM,

1484
01:20:42,280 --> 01:20:44,200
Speaker 1: in his one game back, he was great. UM he

1485
01:20:44,280 --> 01:20:47,760
Speaker 1: allowed he is allowed bhot Brian three touchdowns in his

1486
01:20:47,880 --> 01:20:51,320
Speaker 1: coverage over the past three seasons, including this season, which

1487
01:20:51,400 --> 01:20:53,759
Speaker 1: really is only one game, so really it's three touchdowns

1488
01:20:53,800 --> 01:20:56,920
Speaker 1: in two seasons. That's still awfully good. So John Brown,

1489
01:20:57,040 --> 01:20:59,360
Speaker 1: just the C grade. Let's talk about the running backs,

1490
01:20:59,720 --> 01:21:03,160
Speaker 1: Dev Singletary. It was mostly invisible on Tuesday night, which

1491
01:21:03,240 --> 01:21:06,240
Speaker 1: is worrisome, and here's Zack Moss lurking. As I mentioned earlier,

1492
01:21:06,600 --> 01:21:10,280
Speaker 1: Fortunately a very positive matchup for Singletary. Four of the

1493
01:21:10,400 --> 01:21:13,840
Speaker 1: five starting running backs Kansas City has faced have either

1494
01:21:13,880 --> 01:21:17,479
Speaker 1: posted one hundred Combo yards or scored or done both.

1495
01:21:18,080 --> 01:21:21,160
Speaker 1: Pro Football Focus ranks the Chiefs run defense twenty four

1496
01:21:21,880 --> 01:21:25,200
Speaker 1: and their five yards per carry ranks twenty in the league.

1497
01:21:26,040 --> 01:21:31,040
Speaker 1: But is Devin Singletary the lead back? I think t J.

1498
01:21:31,240 --> 01:21:36,280
Speaker 1: Yelden should have been the lead back after Yelden did

1499
01:21:36,360 --> 01:21:39,439
Speaker 1: look better than Devin Singletary. Or is it Zack Moss

1500
01:21:39,600 --> 01:21:42,439
Speaker 1: and Singletary? By the way, C grade, Zack Moss, You're

1501
01:21:42,439 --> 01:21:44,680
Speaker 1: gonna have to speculate. I as much as I like

1502
01:21:44,840 --> 01:21:47,519
Speaker 1: Zack Moss, I can't tell you how much his workload

1503
01:21:47,600 --> 01:21:49,160
Speaker 1: is going to be. But I can tell you that

1504
01:21:49,240 --> 01:21:52,320
Speaker 1: he was full partisanate in practice all week. Presumably this

1505
01:21:52,439 --> 01:21:55,280
Speaker 1: turf toe is finally behind him and he's ready for

1506
01:21:55,520 --> 01:21:58,439
Speaker 1: a decent workload for really what would be the first

1507
01:21:58,479 --> 01:22:01,680
Speaker 1: time in his career I'm hoping that he gets to

1508
01:22:01,880 --> 01:22:06,600
Speaker 1: ten to twelve ish touches, and if that happens that

1509
01:22:06,720 --> 01:22:08,800
Speaker 1: I think he will earn the C grade I'm giving

1510
01:22:08,920 --> 01:22:11,200
Speaker 1: Zack Moss, but I don't know that that's going to

1511
01:22:11,280 --> 01:22:14,120
Speaker 1: be the case. Again, this Chief's run defense is bad,

1512
01:22:14,640 --> 01:22:16,759
Speaker 1: and if Zack Moss is gonna get ten to twelve

1513
01:22:17,280 --> 01:22:20,439
Speaker 1: touches at five yards per carry, we're sitting at a

1514
01:22:20,479 --> 01:22:22,680
Speaker 1: C grade and a possible touchdown for the guy who

1515
01:22:22,720 --> 01:22:25,040
Speaker 1: should be the goal line back if Josh Allen does

1516
01:22:25,120 --> 01:22:27,679
Speaker 1: not run one hand. So you're saying this week, Zack

1517
01:22:27,760 --> 01:22:30,800
Speaker 1: Moss has to earn your S grade. I'm saying I'm

1518
01:22:30,840 --> 01:22:34,920
Speaker 1: giving him a C grade because we don't equivocate with

1519
01:22:35,120 --> 01:22:39,200
Speaker 1: our grades. Final segment, Our final matchup of this show,

1520
01:22:39,520 --> 01:22:42,479
Speaker 1: Green Bay taking on Tampa Bay. This is a star

1521
01:22:42,840 --> 01:22:47,240
Speaker 1: laden game with the return of Davante Adams, Mike Evans,

1522
01:22:47,360 --> 01:22:51,439
Speaker 1: Chris Godwin, both of these offenses fully healthy, all the

1523
01:22:51,520 --> 01:22:56,040
Speaker 1: stars on the field. Who do you like, Well, don't

1524
01:22:56,080 --> 01:22:58,120
Speaker 1: you like? I like Aaron Jones. I'm giving him an

1525
01:22:58,120 --> 01:23:01,000
Speaker 1: A grade even in a scenario where defense is really

1526
01:23:01,040 --> 01:23:03,559
Speaker 1: good against the run as Tampa Tampa is awesome against

1527
01:23:03,560 --> 01:23:06,000
Speaker 1: the Ron Jones is matchup proof right now. The Bucks

1528
01:23:06,040 --> 01:23:09,000
Speaker 1: are allowing almost eight receptions in fifty seven yards to

1529
01:23:09,040 --> 01:23:11,200
Speaker 1: the running back position through the air. Those are both

1530
01:23:11,280 --> 01:23:14,120
Speaker 1: bottom seven in the league, and Jones is third amongst

1531
01:23:14,200 --> 01:23:17,679
Speaker 1: runners and targets per game, fifth in receptions and sixth

1532
01:23:17,720 --> 01:23:20,160
Speaker 1: and receiving yards per game, So that keeps him in

1533
01:23:20,240 --> 01:23:23,400
Speaker 1: play with an A Aaron Rodgers, he gets an A.

1534
01:23:23,600 --> 01:23:25,880
Speaker 1: He's basically the top quarterback in the league right now,

1535
01:23:26,040 --> 01:23:28,880
Speaker 1: third in yards per game, first and touchdown basses per game.

1536
01:23:29,479 --> 01:23:32,680
Speaker 1: Tampa stats against the past look improved, but when you

1537
01:23:32,800 --> 01:23:36,400
Speaker 1: have the ghost of Drew Brees, Jeff Driscoll, Brett Rippon,

1538
01:23:36,560 --> 01:23:39,559
Speaker 1: and Nick Foles on the schedule, it's not super difficult

1539
01:23:39,600 --> 01:23:42,439
Speaker 1: to look above average. By the way, Teddy Bridgewater and

1540
01:23:42,520 --> 01:23:45,240
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert each torch to this defense, and I expect

1541
01:23:45,360 --> 01:23:48,200
Speaker 1: Rogers to do the same, especially with Davante Adams back.

1542
01:23:48,240 --> 01:23:50,280
Speaker 1: And of course he's getting an A grade eight and

1543
01:23:50,280 --> 01:23:52,800
Speaker 1: a half receptions for ninety six yards per game before

1544
01:23:52,840 --> 01:23:56,200
Speaker 1: getting hurt. He's healthy, and to me, that means the

1545
01:23:56,280 --> 01:23:59,479
Speaker 1: rest of the passing game probably goes back to the bench.

1546
01:23:59,600 --> 01:24:03,920
Speaker 1: I'm not, to Robert tanyan believer quite yet when Davante

1547
01:24:03,960 --> 01:24:06,120
Speaker 1: Adams and Allen Lazard are both out of the lineup.

1548
01:24:06,200 --> 01:24:10,600
Speaker 1: Shre Tanyan is averaging three touchdowns per game, but he

1549
01:24:10,760 --> 01:24:12,840
Speaker 1: has scored in the other two games played this year.

1550
01:24:13,080 --> 01:24:15,560
Speaker 1: But he was barely targeted in the game against the

1551
01:24:15,680 --> 01:24:18,639
Speaker 1: Lions when Adam was still playing, only had two targets

1552
01:24:18,680 --> 01:24:21,680
Speaker 1: in that game. I've bagged on him enough. I'd like

1553
01:24:21,720 --> 01:24:23,640
Speaker 1: to see him perform in a game where Rogers was

1554
01:24:23,720 --> 01:24:26,080
Speaker 1: healthy and had some receivers before I give him a

1555
01:24:26,120 --> 01:24:33,040
Speaker 1: starting grade. Tampa's injury report going into Friday morning had

1556
01:24:33,160 --> 01:24:36,559
Speaker 1: Evans for net Godwin, Gronk McCoy, and Scottie Miller all

1557
01:24:36,640 --> 01:24:40,719
Speaker 1: on it. A couple of those guys dropped off. It's weird,

1558
01:24:41,280 --> 01:24:44,000
Speaker 1: so it seems like they needed extra rest. I guess,

1559
01:24:44,400 --> 01:24:47,479
Speaker 1: so Tom Brady, let's start with him on a per

1560
01:24:47,600 --> 01:24:49,600
Speaker 1: game basis. Brady is top ten in the league in

1561
01:24:49,720 --> 01:24:52,880
Speaker 1: yards and touchdowns. Since the Packers seemed to score, it

1562
01:24:52,960 --> 01:24:55,120
Speaker 1: will it's likely going to be a shootout, and the

1563
01:24:55,160 --> 01:24:58,360
Speaker 1: pack have obliged to allow some decent numbers on the

1564
01:24:58,439 --> 01:25:01,880
Speaker 1: season to opposing quarterbacks. Every quarterback who who has faced

1565
01:25:01,920 --> 01:25:04,720
Speaker 1: them has top two hundred forty yards three of the

1566
01:25:04,800 --> 01:25:07,120
Speaker 1: four have thrown for multiple scores, So I'm giving Brady

1567
01:25:07,200 --> 01:25:10,760
Speaker 1: a B. Mike Evans is getting a B grade. Uh

1568
01:25:10,960 --> 01:25:13,240
Speaker 1: he scored a touchdown in every game this season and

1569
01:25:13,320 --> 01:25:15,800
Speaker 1: the Packers are giving up almost a touchdown and a

1570
01:25:15,840 --> 01:25:18,600
Speaker 1: half per game to wide receivers. His ankle injury is

1571
01:25:18,640 --> 01:25:21,920
Speaker 1: not believed to be serious now. Chris Godwin, on the

1572
01:25:22,000 --> 01:25:23,760
Speaker 1: other hand, I'm only going to give him a C

1573
01:25:23,920 --> 01:25:27,080
Speaker 1: grade in this one. I'm still nervous that the hamstring

1574
01:25:27,120 --> 01:25:30,160
Speaker 1: injury that has taken him out of games twice now

1575
01:25:30,320 --> 01:25:33,680
Speaker 1: this year, that's one that lingers and I know that

1576
01:25:33,760 --> 01:25:37,040
Speaker 1: he can report, and I want to believe he's fully healthy.

1577
01:25:37,120 --> 01:25:40,599
Speaker 1: He's practicing, he practicing full on Friday, he did practice

1578
01:25:40,640 --> 01:25:42,920
Speaker 1: in full on Friday. I'm just still nervous that that

1579
01:25:43,840 --> 01:25:46,720
Speaker 1: that those hamstring injuries are tricky and and and they

1580
01:25:46,760 --> 01:25:50,280
Speaker 1: can come back, and I just want to yeah, it

1581
01:25:50,680 --> 01:25:53,479
Speaker 1: really is. So I'm going to give him a C grade.

1582
01:25:54,080 --> 01:25:56,280
Speaker 1: You can upgrade it to a B if you're feeling better.

1583
01:25:56,400 --> 01:25:59,320
Speaker 1: But uh, yeah, I'm just a little nervous there. And

1584
01:25:59,360 --> 01:26:01,479
Speaker 1: I'm not going to contest or be on Evans. But

1585
01:26:02,080 --> 01:26:07,479
Speaker 1: Jiro Alexander slowly becoming arguably the top shutdown corner in

1586
01:26:07,560 --> 01:26:10,920
Speaker 1: the NFL. So here he really is. It's just Evans

1587
01:26:10,960 --> 01:26:14,600
Speaker 1: scores in every game, even if they're one catch for

1588
01:26:14,800 --> 01:26:17,400
Speaker 1: one yard and one touchdown. That's how Evans roll. I

1589
01:26:17,400 --> 01:26:19,640
Speaker 1: wouldn't bend Evans. But would you see Gyr Alexander on

1590
01:26:19,720 --> 01:26:22,439
Speaker 1: the other side. Yeah, take caution not going as far

1591
01:26:22,520 --> 01:26:25,400
Speaker 1: as Scotty Miller or Tyler Johnson. The Packer only allowing

1592
01:26:25,479 --> 01:26:28,040
Speaker 1: twelve receptions per game to wide receivers this year. And

1593
01:26:28,120 --> 01:26:31,360
Speaker 1: then Gronk and Cameron bred I have them both on

1594
01:26:31,439 --> 01:26:34,000
Speaker 1: the bench. I think Bright outscores Gronk for the rest

1595
01:26:34,080 --> 01:26:36,479
Speaker 1: of the year, by the way, but neither of them

1596
01:26:36,520 --> 01:26:38,439
Speaker 1: will score in this game. The Packers haven't allowed a

1597
01:26:38,520 --> 01:26:42,680
Speaker 1: tight end touchdown in their past nine games. Here's why.

1598
01:26:43,800 --> 01:26:47,160
Speaker 1: Here's why I disagree with you on both Godwin and Evans.

1599
01:26:47,200 --> 01:26:49,439
Speaker 1: I would upgrade both of them. I have Godwin as

1600
01:26:49,479 --> 01:26:51,920
Speaker 1: an A grade. You know, the Packers defense on paper,

1601
01:26:51,960 --> 01:26:53,960
Speaker 1: I think looks better than it is. They've managed to

1602
01:26:54,080 --> 01:26:57,960
Speaker 1: dodge Kenny Golladay who they missed, Michael Thomas who they missed.

1603
01:26:58,320 --> 01:27:00,680
Speaker 1: They played, Julio Jones and Calvin ridd and Jones left

1604
01:27:00,720 --> 01:27:03,360
Speaker 1: immediately and really limped through the game. I just think

1605
01:27:03,400 --> 01:27:05,800
Speaker 1: this is a more other than Jay are Alexander. I

1606
01:27:05,880 --> 01:27:08,720
Speaker 1: think this is a much more susceptible. Uh. I can

1607
01:27:08,800 --> 01:27:11,040
Speaker 1: hear that argument we read then we realize right now

1608
01:27:11,120 --> 01:27:13,479
Speaker 1: and you know, if if god one has removed from

1609
01:27:13,479 --> 01:27:14,920
Speaker 1: the injury part, I want to believe that I don't

1610
01:27:14,920 --> 01:27:17,679
Speaker 1: have to sweat that that hamstring popping back up again.

1611
01:27:17,760 --> 01:27:20,320
Speaker 1: So I've actually got him inside my top ten receivers

1612
01:27:20,360 --> 01:27:21,880
Speaker 1: and I've got an A grade on him. But that's

1613
01:27:21,920 --> 01:27:24,000
Speaker 1: just me. I got a We've got a couple of

1614
01:27:24,040 --> 01:27:25,400
Speaker 1: minutes left, and I want to shoot a couple of

1615
01:27:25,479 --> 01:27:28,679
Speaker 1: questions of you guys. You're Clyde Edwards, a layer owner.

1616
01:27:29,040 --> 01:27:31,519
Speaker 1: Are you selling now for fifty cents on the dollar

1617
01:27:32,240 --> 01:27:35,000
Speaker 1: or you're gonna hold and just hope things shake out

1618
01:27:35,439 --> 01:27:38,800
Speaker 1: in your favor. In Redraft, I think I would sell

1619
01:27:38,880 --> 01:27:40,840
Speaker 1: for fifty cents on the dollar and try to get

1620
01:27:40,880 --> 01:27:42,240
Speaker 1: something back because I don't think he's going to be

1621
01:27:42,280 --> 01:27:45,040
Speaker 1: a league winner unless Bell gets hurt. And granted Bill

1622
01:27:45,240 --> 01:27:46,720
Speaker 1: might not be all that great, but he still as

1623
01:27:47,200 --> 01:27:49,240
Speaker 1: gas in the tank. But in Dynasty, I think you

1624
01:27:49,280 --> 01:27:51,000
Speaker 1: got to hold and to see what you got moving

1625
01:27:51,080 --> 01:27:53,360
Speaker 1: for next year. It was alarming that they didn't get

1626
01:27:53,400 --> 01:27:54,960
Speaker 1: a lot of press leading up to the draft, but

1627
01:27:55,040 --> 01:27:57,360
Speaker 1: supposedly at l s U they had like a rotation

1628
01:27:57,600 --> 01:28:00,519
Speaker 1: at the goal line among the running backs just because

1629
01:28:00,720 --> 01:28:02,920
Speaker 1: c h wasn't getting it done and he's not getting

1630
01:28:02,920 --> 01:28:06,960
Speaker 1: it done in the pros. So draft I was ready

1631
01:28:07,000 --> 01:28:09,960
Speaker 1: to assume Clyde Edwards Hilaire would not get a lot

1632
01:28:10,040 --> 01:28:13,800
Speaker 1: of goal line use. Didn't necessarily care. I'd like to

1633
01:28:13,920 --> 01:28:16,280
Speaker 1: buy at fifty cents on the dollar right now on

1634
01:28:16,400 --> 01:28:19,760
Speaker 1: Clyde Edwards Hilaire, mostly because let's just stash him on

1635
01:28:19,800 --> 01:28:22,759
Speaker 1: the bench. Levan Bell has a has a real injury history,

1636
01:28:22,840 --> 01:28:26,919
Speaker 1: plus not that good. We're looking at a Week sixteen

1637
01:28:27,000 --> 01:28:30,559
Speaker 1: matchup with the Atlanta Falcons, and I'm adding as many

1638
01:28:30,680 --> 01:28:32,400
Speaker 1: Chiefs as I can and I'll stash him on the

1639
01:28:32,439 --> 01:28:37,000
Speaker 1: Big three weeks. They also have a Miami Week four

1640
01:28:37,120 --> 01:28:39,600
Speaker 1: teen game, which is another good playoff matchup. I like

1641
01:28:39,760 --> 01:28:42,840
Speaker 1: that too. All right, Uh, If you'd like to get
