We're going to think about 38 00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 6: some players we might want to fade, some games or 39 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 6: teams went to stack, and we're going to make some 40 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 6: suitable predictions and picks and of course prop bets. This 41 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 6: week there's a great Thursday night game, Chargers at Chiefs, 42 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 6: and then we have the two Saturday games, so that 43 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 6: leads us with an eleven game main slate. But start 44 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:16,399 Speaker 6: looking at the guys on the slate, and let's start 45 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 6: at quarterback ian Right now, there are a lot of 46 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 6: guys popping in our pro models. Out of these guys, 47 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 6: there's Ben Roethlisberger near the top, there's Matt Ryan in 48 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 6: the middle range, you have Kirk Cousins, Trubisky, Lamar Jackson, 49 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 6: Tom Brady, even Winston, and then very cheap you have 50 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:37,359 Speaker 6: Jeff Driscoll going against the Oakland Raiders. I don't know 51 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,640 Speaker 6: if anyone's bold enough to start him, but any of 52 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 6: those guys catch your eyewards or anyone else on the 53 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 6: slate right now that you are thinking you would want 54 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 6: to have in a cash game lineup. 55 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 7: Yeah, the one guy's zeroing on right now is Lamar Jackson. 56 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 7: We just got worried about twenty minutes ago that, Yes, 57 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 7: Jackson is now finally the quarterback in Baltimore. Joe Flacca 58 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 7: will be backing him up this Sunday, even though his 59 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:00,959 Speaker 7: hip is healthy. I feel like the rushing we've seen 60 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 7: from Lamar Jackson is actually sustainable, unlike the rushing we've 61 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 7: scene from Josh Allen, Pff, Steve Palazzolo, Sorry if I 62 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 7: messed that up. 63 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:09,800 Speaker 5: Had an awesome stat this week. 64 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 7: Basically, only eighteen percent of Josh Allen's rushing yards I 65 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 7: call him design runs this year compared to eighty nine 66 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 7: percent for Lamar Jackson. So he really has been almost 67 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,079 Speaker 7: their rushing offense since he's come back, especially with kind 68 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,079 Speaker 7: of Thixon kind of working into Gus Edwards workload now. 69 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 7: So I mean, look over these last four starts dat 70 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 7: Jackson has had. He has the ninth most fantasy points 71 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 7: from only rushing production, so he's literally basically an RB one. 72 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 5: In any passing production, he gets just the icing on 73 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 5: the cake. 74 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 7: So I'm riding with Lamar Jackson as long as he's 75 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 7: got the workload of in RB one. 76 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 6: Sean, any thoughts on Lamar Jackson kind of where he's 77 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 6: standing in our models. 78 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the guy I have right now too. 79 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 8: You know, I just want to point out that the 80 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 8: QB is position is really fin this week, you know, 81 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 8: considering there's no teams on it by we still don't 82 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 8: have guys like Mahomes, Breeze Cam or Golf on the slate, 83 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 8: and you know a lot of the expensive guy you know, 84 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 8: I have problems with almost every one of them. So 85 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 8: I've been looking at the cheaper guys, and you know, 86 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 8: as Ian mentioned, I think Lamar Jackson's probably the safest 87 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 8: bet and you can save a little money. But with 88 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 8: his rushing capability, he has such a high floor, and 89 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 8: you know, he faces the Buccaneers defense this week, so 90 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 8: he just checks all the boxes for me early in 91 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 8: the week. 92 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 4: So he's basically the only guy I'm king in for 93 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 4: cash right now. 94 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 8: But you know, for GVPS, it's it's gonna be pretty 95 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:26,600 Speaker 8: spread out this week at QB. 96 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, and Evan Silva had tweeted this out, and I 97 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 6: think some other people had also noted it that the 98 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 6: Bucks and there might be some flukiness in this, but 99 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 6: they are significantly better at home as a defense versus 100 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 6: on the road this year, and so it's a just 101 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 6: kind of amplified spot for Jackson playing at home against 102 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 6: this defense, so they already have problems and then on 103 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 6: the road that can be amplified. Pete, do you have 104 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 6: any interest in Lamar Jackson or any of the other 105 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 6: quarterbacks like Ben Roethlisberger at home? That kind of tends 106 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 6: to be a good spot for him, But you know, 107 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 6: he is expensive, he is coming off of an injury, 108 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 6: so you know, there's some uncertainty there. 109 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: But any thoughts on these guys. 110 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I love Lamar Jackson too. 111 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,599 Speaker 9: It sounds like you guys aren't concerned about Flacco really 112 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,479 Speaker 9: coming in as much as what's been quoted, which I 113 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 9: know is different, but we'll see. That's the one risk. 114 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,640 Speaker 9: I do think the rushing is absolutely there. I'm on 115 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,040 Speaker 9: Dak Prescott as well. I think he makes a lot 116 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 9: of sense going it's a cult. I mean since acquiring Amari, Cooper, Zeke, 117 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 9: Dak and Amari have all been going off, so I 118 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 9: think that's sustainable, especially indoors against the Colts. And yeah, 119 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 9: I mean after that it gets really thin, like Sean mentioned, 120 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 9: So that's kind of where my head's at. I do 121 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 9: think it's a pretty marginal week considering we have all 122 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 9: these teams but a lot of quarterbacks that we want 123 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:45,600 Speaker 9: to play in bad spots, and obviously we have some 124 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 9: great quarterbacks not on the main slate. 125 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's a situation with the two Saturday games makes 126 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 6: it feel as if it's a bye week, and then 127 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 6: we do have the good quarterbacks playing in the Island games. 128 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 6: So yeah, just a kind of tougher slate at the position. 129 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 6: Let's look at at running back and Pete. You mentioned 130 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,359 Speaker 6: Zeke there. He's someone who obviously is standing out at 131 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 6: the top of our models at the running back position. 132 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 6: Good matchup going against Indianapolis. Of course on the road, 133 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 6: not quite as good of a situation for him. And also, 134 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 6: you know, an underdog, not quite as good of a 135 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:18,839 Speaker 6: situation for him. But you know, with a MARII Cooper 136 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 6: that offense has been transformed. And the splits that Zeke 137 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 6: has with Amari Cooper versus without him, they're just kind 138 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:28,839 Speaker 6: of unreal. So still someone standing out in our models. 139 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,039 Speaker 6: Are you willing to pay up for him? Is he 140 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 6: the guy that when you are spinning up you're looking 141 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 6: to invest in? 142 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 1: Yeah? 143 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 9: I do think Zeke is a great option. I mean, 144 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 9: Levitan tweeted it out. He's been averaging over twenty nine 145 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 9: DK points since the trade of Amari Cooper, an incredible 146 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:46,359 Speaker 9: amount of touches. Last week the injury, you know, he 147 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 9: did come back in played eighty six to ninety nine snaps. 148 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 9: So I think he'll be totally fine, And I think 149 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 9: he's the guy that you definitely want to prioritize paying 150 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,919 Speaker 9: up for on the main slate outside of that it 151 00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 9: gets a little thin. I mean, Barkley is obviously still 152 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,479 Speaker 9: a really nice option on the main slate, but he's 153 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,159 Speaker 9: more expensive than Zeke, so it's hard to justify doing that. 154 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:06,919 Speaker 2: I think my next favorite option is kind of in 155 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 2: the mid range. 156 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 9: I like Joe Mixon quite a bit talented, talented player 157 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 9: going against the Raiders. This game has a lot of 158 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 9: upside in terms of points scored and fantacy goodness for 159 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 9: a couple guys, So he's probably my next favorite play 160 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 9: on the board at running back, but there's certainly an 161 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 9: argument for a lot of other guys too. I mean, 162 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 9: I think Tevin Coleman's finally in the spot where he 163 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 9: could do well forty two hundred. Obviously you still have 164 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 9: Jalen Samuels. We'll see what happens with this Baltimore running 165 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 9: back situation. They did say Kenneth Dickson should get more looks, 166 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 9: but Gus Edwards is pretty cheap. So a lot of 167 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 9: options that I kind of like, But I think the 168 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 9: standout plays to me are Zeke and Mixon. 169 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 6: Ian do you have any thoughts on those guys? And 170 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 6: then someone else who is standing out in our models 171 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 6: in the middle range is David Johnson going against Atlanta. 172 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:54,679 Speaker 6: Obviously it's not it's not a good thought to invest 173 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,360 Speaker 6: in anyone in that Cordinals offense. But he does have 174 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 6: this smash matchup going against Atlanta, so there could be 175 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 6: some potential there. And he did, I believe, get ten 176 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 6: targets last week, so it's still involved heavily in the 177 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 6: passing game. 178 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 7: Yeah, it was quite the David Johnson receiving line last week. 179 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 7: Ten targets, eight catches and all of twelve yards. But 180 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 7: I mean, hey, he's going up against the Falcons this week, 181 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 7: like you said, so, I mean, if David Johnson's going to. 182 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 5: Get it together, it might as well be this week. 183 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 7: And there is I think reason to believe we'll see 184 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 7: those targets continue to be elevated with Christian Kirk out 185 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 7: for the remainder of the season. Kind of same thing 186 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 7: with Larry Fitzgerald. But yeah, the thing with Zeke that 187 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 7: I think is being a little bit overlooked is just 188 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 7: how much more involved he's been in the receiving game 189 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 7: this year. I mean, he already has more targets and 190 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 7: receptions in thirteen games this season than he did in 191 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 7: his twenty five games in twenty sixteen through twenty seventeen combined, 192 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 7: so he is legit like basically their number two receiver 193 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 7: at this point behind Amari Cooper. And I mean, I 194 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 7: think those types of players have been what's been standing 195 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 7: out the most kind of this entire season with your 196 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 7: Christian McCaffrey's these guys that are more or less wide 197 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 7: receiver twos with you know, also RB one workloads, so 198 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 7: I mean Zeke and Saquan. You know, I haven't tried 199 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 7: to make many rosters of jamming those guys in, but 200 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:05,080 Speaker 7: I just wonder if they kind of warn't that same 201 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 7: discussion we were having with David Johnson Leveon Bell two 202 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 7: years ago, because I mean, you take there just PPR 203 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 7: points for game averages and we're looking at two backs 204 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 7: pretty much the same usage, same production. So just something 205 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 7: to think about if we can find kind of the 206 00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 7: cheap receivers cause uh, I mean just those massive target 207 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 7: rolls to go along with the twenty. 208 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 5: Plus rush of tuns per game are just incredibly rare. 209 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 6: So Sean, two thoughts, One, what are you thinking about 210 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 6: this running back group? And then is this a jam 211 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 6: omen type of situation? Like are you comfortable jaming in 212 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 6: too high priced running backs like we used to in 213 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 6: the good old days. 214 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 8: Yeah, I haven't thought of that yet. I think this 215 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,840 Speaker 8: week it does make sense. I think wide receivers pretty 216 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 8: there's some good value there, so I'm not opposed to 217 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 8: it right now. I am leaning towards Zeke though he's 218 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 8: just a little bit cheaper, and like I mentioned, you know, 219 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 8: he's you. 220 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 4: Know, very involved, finally involved in the passing game. 221 00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 8: Like you know, we all thought he would had twelve 222 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,320 Speaker 8: catches last week, So I'm not worried if they're slight 223 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 8: underdogs anymore. I know you mentioned it. You know, with Zeke, 224 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 8: we always wanted a positive game script. But if they 225 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 8: get down, you know, I'm pretty confident Bill involved in 226 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 8: the passing game, so I just love him this week 227 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 8: at nine k India. 228 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 4: Is yet to allow one hundred yard rusher this year. 229 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:17,720 Speaker 8: But if you if you look at their game log, 230 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,679 Speaker 8: they've faced a lot of weak backfields. A lot of 231 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 8: a lot of them were like two to three running 232 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 8: back by committees. So don't be fooled by that stat 233 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 8: that's not slowing my Zeke train. This week, I'm gonna 234 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 8: have a bunch of Zeke and then we mentioned Joe Mixon. 235 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 8: He's just way too cheap this week at home against 236 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 8: the Raiders. He had I think thirty plus touches last week, 237 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,079 Speaker 8: so I think he'll keep it going this week. 238 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 4: I am a little worried though that, you. 239 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,839 Speaker 8: Know, the last few weeks of the season they might 240 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 8: try to get a look at Mark Walton, the rookie. 241 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 8: So you know, I don't know if we're going to 242 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 8: see too many thirty plus touches from mixing going forward, 243 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 8: but at home against the Raiders at sixty one hundred, 244 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 8: I'm getting him forty percent of my lineups this early 245 00:10:58,320 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 8: in this week. 246 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 6: All right, let's look at the wide receivers, the guys 247 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 6: popping in our models right now on the expensive side 248 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 6: of everything, Adam Thielon, Julio Jones. In the mid range, 249 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,079 Speaker 6: we have Amari Cooper and t Y Hilton going against 250 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 6: each other in the same game. And then the cheaper guys, 251 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,840 Speaker 6: we have Tyler Boyd, Kenny Galladay, and then kind of 252 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 6: just a pure punt play Dante Montcrief, who will definitely 253 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 6: not be sniffing any of my lineups. Any interest in 254 00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 6: these guys, Ian. 255 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:26,560 Speaker 7: I think the guy that could have a blow up 256 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 7: week here is Adam Thieling. We're looking out of Vikings 257 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 7: offense just fired their OC has Nothing's been going well 258 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 7: for them lately, so what better time than to get 259 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 7: back to the guy that had one of the best 260 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 7: starts of the season of NFL history. I mean, Stefan 261 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 7: Diggs is going to stay involved. I think you know, 262 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 7: they're pretty much two number one receivers stuck in the 263 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 7: same offense, similar. 264 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 5: To what the Steelers are going through this year. 265 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 7: But for Feeling this week, he just has an unbeatable 266 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 7: matchup compared to Diggs, Xavi and Howard. The Dolphins number 267 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 7: one cornerback is week to week with the knee injury. 268 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 7: Even if he comes back, we're looking at worst case 269 00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 7: scenario where Feeling's gonna line up against rookie Fitzpatrick in 270 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 7: the slot, and that would require them to kind of 271 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 7: make that move. 272 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 5: Our best case. 273 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 7: Scenario is he sees Bobby McCann the slot, who's PFS 274 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 7: number ninety one overall cornerback out of one hundred and 275 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 7: thirteen qualified guys. So definitely someone feelings more than capable 276 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 7: of roasting and I just think a player of his caliber, 277 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 7: I mean, we've seen him down for a few weeks. 278 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 5: I think a breakout's coming in a big way. 279 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, I like that, Sean, Any thoughts on these receivers. 280 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 2: The guy that. 281 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 8: Sticks out like a sore throne to me is t 282 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 8: Y Hilton. I haven't projected right up there with all 283 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,960 Speaker 8: these you know, eight K guys, and he's sixty eight hundred. 284 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 8: You know, he's such a gamer. He's been playing through 285 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 8: this nagging shoulder injury and just you know, has put 286 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,880 Speaker 8: up four phenomenal weeks in a row. So you know, 287 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,599 Speaker 8: I'm sticking with him this week at home against Dallas. 288 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 4: So I'm gonna have a ton of t Y Hilton 289 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 4: another guy. 290 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,439 Speaker 8: Well, I don't think anyone's gonna mention these on any podcast. 291 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 2: Hey, Sean, real quick, just to jump in. You're not 292 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 2: concerned about Byron Jones at all. 293 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 8: I think at this price usually later in the week 294 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,200 Speaker 8: I start to really factor in the matchup up. 295 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 4: I think, at this price, I'm going to have to 296 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 4: bump him down a ton to not warrant sixty eight hundred. 297 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 8: And you know, you just have to put faith in 298 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,839 Speaker 8: you know the connection between Andrew Luck and t Y Hilton. 299 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:13,200 Speaker 8: I don't I don't see him going to you know, 300 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,240 Speaker 8: the secondary receivers as much. So that's a good point. 301 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 8: That's you know, later in the week, we'll see where 302 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 8: he ends up. But I'm just thinking, at this price, 303 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:21,719 Speaker 8: I'm going to have a ton of t Y. 304 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 1: I'm glad you asked that because I was. I was 305 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:24,719 Speaker 1: wondering the same thing. 306 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:27,040 Speaker 6: So it's this weird dichotomy where on the one hand, 307 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,960 Speaker 6: you have t Y Hilton at home as a favorite, 308 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 6: it's like his smash spot, and then on the other hand, 309 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 6: going against the Cowboys, whose defense I think is really 310 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:38,720 Speaker 6: shown a lot this season. So I also shared that concern. 311 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 6: But yeah, Sewn, as you mentioned, he's just so cheap. 312 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, you know when it comes to receiver, I definitely, 313 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 8: you know, wave the offensive player a little bit more. 314 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,439 Speaker 8: So it takes, you know, a pretty tough defensive matchup 315 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 8: to really lower him down my model. But I was 316 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:58,559 Speaker 8: gonna mention these Bills wide receivers. They're probably overlooked this week. 317 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:03,720 Speaker 8: Guys like Isaaa McKenzie. He's been getting some direct handoffs lately, 318 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 8: so I think if le Shawn McCoy's out. 319 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:07,439 Speaker 4: You know, he's in a steeky spot. 320 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 8: Where he can get like five carries. But you know, 321 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,440 Speaker 8: like I said, they're going to be really overlooked. So 322 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 8: just some deep flyers are McKenzie and Robert Foster. I 323 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:19,840 Speaker 8: think Zay Jones will be matched up against Darius Slay. 324 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 8: So these guys are just you know, super deep flayers 325 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 8: that you know, I think everybody's overlooking right now. 326 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 7: Ian, you were going to say something, yeah real quick 327 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 7: on the Byron Jones. No, he's balling out this year. 328 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 7: But still, I mean they more or less use him 329 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,360 Speaker 7: as Richard Sherman was used for Seattle all those years, 330 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 7: which makes sense. Cowboys' main defensive coordinator now is Chris Raschard, 331 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 7: the seahawks old defensive coordinator. But yeah, Byron's playing i 332 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 7: mean eighty five percent of his snaps basically as the 333 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 7: defense's left cornerbacks. They should be able to more or 334 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 7: less free up Hilton as they please. We have seen 335 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 7: the last few weeks kind of these high leverage third 336 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 7: downs Byron Jones. You know, he was on zach Ertz 337 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,360 Speaker 7: a little bit last game, so you know, maybe those 338 00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 7: third downs, but even then, I mean, maybe they choose 339 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 7: to put him on Ebron because it's a better size 340 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:03,880 Speaker 7: matchup for them, so I'm not worried about it. For 341 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 7: the matchup for t I, and we've seen DeAndre Hopkins 342 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 7: and Julio Jones go off against this very good Cowboys secondary. 343 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 7: But just one of those situations where if you aren't 344 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 7: going to move the cornerbacks, I think a really good 345 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 7: coach like Frank. 346 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 5: Richer will be able to scheme his guys into some 347 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 5: good spots. 348 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 6: Yeah, great stuff there, and Pete wide receivers. What do 349 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 6: you think I mean, Amari? You're all in on Amari. 350 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 2: Let's just say this being on Vanduel. 351 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 3: His price didn't move, which is just absolutely crazy. 352 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 2: It's been unbelievable, man. 353 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 9: I mean, finally last week, finally I got some of 354 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 9: the money back that I've lost. Still still down a 355 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 9: couple of houses, but man, last week was awesome. I've 356 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 9: been one of my best swaps ever where I was 357 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 9: down like fifty points and swapped off Samuels, Sutton and 358 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 9: Zeke to Juju, Amari, Cooper and Eckler, which I went 359 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 9: by four points in the last a Mari touchdown, which 360 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 9: is great. So I'm back on the AMRII trained to 361 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 9: a degree. I think this is a great spot. 362 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 2: For him. I'm on fandul. I mean, he six hundred 363 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 2: for him. I just don't I don't get why he pressed. 364 00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,840 Speaker 2: I think his press went down, went down three hundred bucks. 365 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 6: Yeah, that's unreal. I mean it just to add to 366 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 6: this Amari Cooper thing. I mean, everyone knew he was 367 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 6: super talented, you know, two straight thousand yard receiving seasons. 368 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,720 Speaker 6: To enter the league in twenty seventeen, it was just 369 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 6: a negative situation all around, with Derek Carr playing through 370 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 6: a debilitating back injury. But in his six games with 371 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 6: the Cowboys, he's led the league in receiving yards and 372 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 6: receiving touchdowns. And he's done it on eight point eight 373 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 6: targets per game, which isn't like an inflated number of targets. 374 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 6: Like he's He's been efficient with his opportunities. I've been 375 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 6: amazed by how quickly he has integrated himself into this offense. 376 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 6: It normally takes wide receivers, even just kind of like 377 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,640 Speaker 6: in free agency, it normally takes them a long time 378 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 6: to become like a fully functional part of their systems, 379 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 6: much less a mid season trade. So I think, like 380 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 6: what's happening with the Mari is is pretty amazing, and 381 00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 6: as you mentioned, a good spot there any of the 382 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 6: other wide receivers catch your ip. 383 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a lot of receivers. 384 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:06,199 Speaker 9: I mean, I love the feeling call I think, you know, 385 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 9: he's someone that definitely is due for a really big game. 386 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 9: You could say the same thing about Diggs. I think 387 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 9: both those guys have a really big opportunity to have 388 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 9: great games. Julio should see a lot of Patrick Peterson, 389 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:19,880 Speaker 9: so I'm a little down on him. I know you're 390 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:23,159 Speaker 9: high on Juju Smith Schuster. Hopefully Antonio Brown doesn't go 391 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 9: off for your sake, Freedman. 392 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 2: And then yeah, I mean even. 393 00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:29,280 Speaker 9: Devonte Adams, he has a bad, tough batchup. I still 394 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 9: think he'll get a lot of opportunity. And that's also 395 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:34,199 Speaker 9: a weird spot for Chicago. I could see a letdown 396 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,639 Speaker 9: game for them after a huge win on prime side 397 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,640 Speaker 9: Sunday Night versus the Rams. But yeah, there's a ton 398 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:42,399 Speaker 9: of guys going down the list. I mean, what do 399 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 9: you guys think about players like Dde Westbrook, Corey Davis, 400 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 9: Dante Pettis kind of in that mid range to the 401 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 9: bottom range who have gotten a lot of roles. Pattis 402 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,960 Speaker 9: has a bad matchup, as does Corey Davis do a 403 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:53,640 Speaker 9: degree as well. 404 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:55,880 Speaker 2: But what are you guys' thoughts on them? 405 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,199 Speaker 7: Yeah, one quick thing I saw on Corey Davis that 406 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 7: I thought was interesting was he really hasn't had this 407 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 7: overwhelming wide receiver one target share we kind of grew 408 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 7: used to. Recently, they got a Taiwan Taylor and taj 409 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 7: Sharper out for a few weeks. Both of them have 410 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 7: been back these last two weeks, and in that span 411 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 7: we've seen Taylor actually lead the team with twelve targets, 412 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,360 Speaker 7: Davis has ten, Sharp's had ten. I mean, I think 413 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 7: Davis is still their number one wide receiver. I'm not 414 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 7: trying to debate that, but it does seem like Mariota's 415 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 7: in that offense in general are kind of better off 416 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,359 Speaker 7: when he can distribute to a bunch of different options 417 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 7: out and just feed one guy. So if Davis doesn't 418 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 7: get in those i mean eight to ten targets per game, 419 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,359 Speaker 7: still a run first offense, I'm probably gonna be staying 420 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 7: away here towards the end of the year. 421 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 1: Shaw, you have any thoughts on those guys? 422 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:38,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, I love Pettis. 423 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 8: Like Pete mentioned, it is a tougher matchup, but you 424 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 8: know he should be their number one wide receiver the 425 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 8: rest of the way. Ian, do we have an update 426 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 8: on like Odell Beckham's status, because Sterling Shepherd's sitting there 427 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 8: around this price range. So if he's ruled out again 428 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 8: this week, I think Shepherd's going to be pretty chalky. 429 00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,719 Speaker 7: Yeah, he started to week off with the DMP, so 430 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:01,240 Speaker 7: it's not looking good. 431 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:02,680 Speaker 5: For Abja gotcha. 432 00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:05,240 Speaker 8: Yeah, So, like like I said, Shepherd sitting at forty 433 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 8: four hundred, if Odell's ruled out again, you know we're 434 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 8: gonna have to consider either fading him or just tak 435 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:13,400 Speaker 8: him the free square because I think he uh scure 436 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 8: a touchdown last week. I'm not sure how his yardage, 437 00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 8: but at forty four hundred, especially on this week, could 438 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 8: be pretty chunky. 439 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:22,879 Speaker 5: Guys like John Ross a four K John Ross. 440 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 2: I'm always interested in and I hope he goes off. 441 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 8: He had the most John Ross game ever last week, 442 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 8: one catch for eight yards and a touchdown. 443 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 5: Right, I mean, I mean we've seen this Raiders defense. 444 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 7: Now ab got shut down, Ty Freak got touched down 445 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,200 Speaker 7: and got shut down, and t Y Hilton got shut down. 446 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,440 Speaker 7: And in all those games we saw you know, Juju, 447 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 7: Doyle and Kelsey just go absolutely bonkers. Question is if 448 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 7: boyd you know it is kind of that number one 449 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:48,440 Speaker 7: receiver or not, But I think he'll be the guy 450 00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,880 Speaker 7: the Raiders look to take away first. And I mean 451 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:52,879 Speaker 7: good thing with Ross is it only takes one or 452 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 7: two to kind of get that payoff. But obviously that 453 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,400 Speaker 7: floor and not offense as well, but we'll see. 454 00:19:57,680 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, No, I love I love that for like a 455 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 4: GVP Flay love that call. 456 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, obviously stack him with Mixing and Driscoll and win 457 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,639 Speaker 6: all of the money. Even cj Uzoma just go for 458 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 6: the onslaught. Speaking of tight end, Eric Ebron is popping 459 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 6: at the top of our models, and then in the 460 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 6: mid range we have Austin Hooper and then cheaper guys Ezoma, 461 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 6: Rudolph and Vernon Davis and then just has a total 462 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 6: pump play Roocky Seals jones Ian. How confident are you 463 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,400 Speaker 6: and Eric Ebron going against the Dallas defense? 464 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,880 Speaker 7: Not very I was talking about this a little bit earlier, 465 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,120 Speaker 7: but I'm not sure how the Cowboys are gonna defend 466 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 7: this Colts team. But there is a scenario where I 467 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 7: think they more or less take away Ebron here, and 468 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,639 Speaker 7: we saw Ertz go for fourteen catches, one hundred and 469 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 7: forty five yards and two touchdowns in that first matchup 470 00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 7: against the Cowboys. Next time, they pretty much everything in 471 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 7: their power to take him away and only have thirty 472 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 7: eight scoreless yards. So I could see a scenario where 473 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 7: they kind of sell out to stop Ebron if they 474 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:58,160 Speaker 7: consider him lux top option. But ah man, it's still 475 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,719 Speaker 7: tough to see kind of both Ibron and noor Hilton 476 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 7: getting tied down. I think it's just a decision to 477 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:04,720 Speaker 7: make later in the week of if you want to 478 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 7: kind of go more all in on Hilton and Rebron 479 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 7: because I think one of those guys gonna have a 480 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 7: pretty rough day. 481 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, Sean, what do you think? 482 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:12,400 Speaker 4: Yeah? 483 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:15,399 Speaker 8: I mean, I'm still getting quite a bit of George Kittle. 484 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,959 Speaker 8: You know, not having Ertz or Kelsey does elevate the 485 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,440 Speaker 8: top guys value a little bit, so, so I'm getting 486 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 8: a ton of Kittle and then Vernon Davis as a 487 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 8: cheaper option. You know, whenever Jordan reads how you can't 488 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:31,159 Speaker 8: ignore Vernon Davis. It's just tricky. You know, they have 489 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:33,920 Speaker 8: the fourth string QB starting this week. We don't really 490 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 8: know what to expect, So I don't know if I'm 491 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 8: gonna trust them in cash. I might spend up for cash, 492 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 8: but I'll definitely have a ton of. 493 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 4: Vernon and GPPs, you know. 494 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 8: And they're they're facing the Jaguars, so I think with 495 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 8: a fourth string QB, they'll probably lean on the tight 496 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:49,719 Speaker 8: end a little bit more. So I do think this 497 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 8: is a pretty good spot for Vernon. 498 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:52,400 Speaker 1: Pete, what do you think? 499 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:54,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, how I can you out love Kittle? 500 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 9: I mean, that was a ridiculous game and he's just 501 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 9: seeing so much opportunity to match up, I guess is 502 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:00,240 Speaker 9: the reason not to love them. 503 00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 4: Eric G. 504 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 9: Brown going into these fast linebackers is another guy I'm 505 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:06,360 Speaker 9: definitely looking hard at. But the matchup is a concern. 506 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:09,919 Speaker 9: But his target share and volume is something that we 507 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 9: definitely love in a game. I mean, we really don't 508 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:15,159 Speaker 9: have high totals on the main slate. This simply is 509 00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 9: the second highest total right now here on Wednesday morning. 510 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 9: So Abron to me is another guy who stands out, 511 00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 9: but again you have the matchup issue. Evan Ingram, I 512 00:22:23,640 --> 00:22:26,719 Speaker 9: think I'll definitely look to a widell Beckham is out. 513 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 9: I think he certainly makes sense. Did see five targets, 514 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,639 Speaker 9: which isn't great, but converted that into seventy seven yards 515 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 9: also is encourage to play Austin Hooper, but he's also 516 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 9: dealing with an injury, so that's something to monitor. But yeah, 517 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 9: for all the games in the main slate, there's pretty 518 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 9: weak options at some of these positions, and not the 519 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:46,680 Speaker 9: most enticing games overall, which is the challenge of the week. 520 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:50,360 Speaker 6: I think I think that leads us into the fade conversation. 521 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 6: If there are any expensive players or guys we think 522 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:55,359 Speaker 6: might be popular that we would be fine with fading 523 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,880 Speaker 6: this week. Obviously, I'll just start this off by saying 524 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:00,879 Speaker 6: Antonio Brown, clearly this is not I'm just honestly, I 525 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:04,200 Speaker 6: don't know. Brown's an interesting situation because at home, his 526 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,880 Speaker 6: smash spot will be hard to know how the Patriots 527 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 6: are going to play against the wide receivers there with 528 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:13,919 Speaker 6: Juju on the middle. But ian any guys that he 529 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 6: might be looking to fade. 530 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 7: Set me up there, Freeman, because I'm going with Juju 531 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:20,359 Speaker 7: Smith Schuster, because I think I do know how the 532 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:23,760 Speaker 7: Patriots could approach this situation based on how they covered 533 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 7: the Vikings, which you know, just a similar situation where 534 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 7: you got two pretty much wide receiver ones, and tentatively, 535 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,439 Speaker 7: I'm thinking that Stefan Gilmour is going to be in 536 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 7: shadow coverage with Antonio Brown and Jason mccordy, who they've 537 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 7: been more willing to use in the slot for a 538 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 7: higher percentage of snaps him in a safety coverage to 539 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:44,399 Speaker 7: kind of bracket Juju. 540 00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 5: I think it's going to be tough. 541 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 7: And we've seen all season now, really the last two seasons, 542 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 7: Juju and Ab don't have. 543 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,919 Speaker 5: Massive games together. They have a pro Pro models. 544 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:56,920 Speaker 7: Their correlation in DraftKings points per game is minus zero 545 00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:01,080 Speaker 7: point six. So they've only both game seventy five receiving 546 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:03,560 Speaker 7: yards in four games this season. One guy goes off, 547 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 7: the other guy doesn't. It's not like the offense is 548 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 7: playing bad. I mean, even that terrible game AB. 549 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 5: Had last week Ben Rothslberg was still. 550 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:12,920 Speaker 7: Like twenty five for twenty nine, two hundred eighty yards, 551 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 7: two touchdowns. They're just they're getting more yards. It's just 552 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:18,640 Speaker 7: a different guys. So I'm fading Juju, and I think 553 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:20,440 Speaker 7: this is a week where Ab goes off. 554 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 1: You hurt me to this ball with that. No, I 555 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 1: can definitely see that. 556 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:27,040 Speaker 6: I mean, I think we're going to probably do some 557 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:29,680 Speaker 6: props around this situation. So I don't want to say 558 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,600 Speaker 6: too much right now about my thoughts on this, but yeah, 559 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 6: I can definitely see your perspective on that, Sean, What 560 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:35,600 Speaker 6: do you think. 561 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:39,159 Speaker 8: I am fading all QB's six k more this week 562 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 8: and loading up on qbs under six k this week? 563 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 8: You know, just looking at you know, all the top 564 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:48,520 Speaker 8: end qbs. Russell Wilson's way too expensive this week, Big Ben, 565 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,399 Speaker 8: we talked about it. He has some health concerns. Andrew 566 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 8: Luck has a tough matchup. Kirk Cousins just lost his 567 00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 8: offensive coordinator. Mitch Trubisky looked like crap. So you know, 568 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 8: when you have like Jamis Winston with a tough matchup 569 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:06,359 Speaker 8: for Lamar Jackson, Dak Prescott, Josh Allen, Aaron Rodgers, just 570 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 8: I think it's it's wise he's just kind of spread 571 00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 8: out on the cheaper guys this week and load up 572 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:13,919 Speaker 8: at the other positions. That's that's kind of how I 573 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:14,880 Speaker 8: see this slate going. 574 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 1: All right, Pete, what about you? 575 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a tough thing. I mean, the Pittsburgh. 576 00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 9: Receivers are definitely interesting fades. Ben Roethlisberger too. I mean, 577 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,880 Speaker 9: coming off an injury, it's never ideal. I do think 578 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 9: he's still a really nice play Amari Cooper on FanDuel 579 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,200 Speaker 9: is gonna be such chalk and he's kind of mid 580 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,680 Speaker 9: range price, but there's definitely merit de fading him considering 581 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:41,119 Speaker 9: his range of outcomes. I mean, there's that huge tournament 582 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,439 Speaker 9: over there, and I think he could be like fifty 583 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 9: plus percent on so at that ownership, I think he's 584 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 9: a pretty easy fade. And then Julio Jones, I don't 585 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 9: hate the idea of fading him if you're buying Patrick 586 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 9: Peterson being able to slow him down. And also this 587 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 9: could be a game where Atlanta just runs the ball 588 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 9: and gets out to a big league early, so that 589 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 9: would be one other reason. But there's a lot of 590 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 9: arguments for Julio, And obviously I love the Mario this week, all. 591 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 1: Right, So it's interesting. 592 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 6: The game with the highest total on the slate Pats 593 00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:12,200 Speaker 6: at Steelers, But we haven't really talked about that as 594 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:15,120 Speaker 6: a game that we would really want to target. We've 595 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 6: talked a little bit more about Cowboys and Colts. That's 596 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 6: second on the slate with forty seven points. Pete, Are 597 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 6: there other games besides those two that you would really 598 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,159 Speaker 6: be looking to target to stack either one side or 599 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:28,159 Speaker 6: both sides together. 600 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:30,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the hardest part about this week. 601 00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 9: I mean, we're just looking at a lower scoring game 602 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 9: environment across the board. We're talking a little pre pod 603 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 9: and I definitely agree. I think the Raiders at Bengals 604 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 9: with two bad defenses is the one that probably stands 605 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,879 Speaker 9: out the most. We've already seen some positive line movement there. 606 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,159 Speaker 9: Definitely like that game quite a bit. Another spot that 607 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,439 Speaker 9: I don't hate the idea of stacking up would be 608 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 9: Miami and Minnesota, just because I love some of the 609 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 9: Minnesota guys. Kenny Still's coming off a big week. I 610 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 9: guess you could go to him running it back. But 611 00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:01,359 Speaker 9: it's a weird, weird week for game stacks, which is 612 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,440 Speaker 9: normally my favorite strategy. There's games that are almost cross 613 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 9: offs right away, and the best environments are all off 614 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,919 Speaker 9: the main slate. You know, the Eagles, Rams, Saints, Panthers, 615 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:13,360 Speaker 9: and Chiefs Chargers. Those games all have massive shootout potentially 616 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:15,880 Speaker 9: not on the main slate. So it's it's tough, which 617 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:17,160 Speaker 9: will be interesting for tournaments. 618 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:18,160 Speaker 1: It's fine. 619 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:20,159 Speaker 6: I'm looking at the Vegas page that we have a 620 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:23,439 Speaker 6: Fantasy Labs and it looks like, I don't know, it 621 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 6: looks like twenty sixteen with like the totals that we 622 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,439 Speaker 6: have there. You know, like you'd have one game that 623 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 6: was maybe around fifty a little over fifty, and then 624 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 6: a lot of games around like forty five to forty seven. 625 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 1: And that's really what we have on the main slate 626 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:37,800 Speaker 1: this week. 627 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,320 Speaker 6: So it just it feels kind of like a throwback 628 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 6: week ian any game in particular, maybe outside of the 629 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 6: two high scoring ones that you would be looking to target. 630 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:48,399 Speaker 7: I think Pete nailed it where we're kind of the 631 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 7: top two, the Steelers Patriots going to have the fastest 632 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:55,160 Speaker 7: projected pace, highest total, and you know, Cowboys, Colts and Door. 633 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:57,160 Speaker 7: The only other game I can kind of get behind 634 00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:02,160 Speaker 7: a Lobez is Buccaneers Ravens game. Worried about James's situation 635 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 7: going on the road facing one of the better defenses 636 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 7: we'll see all year. But I'm assuming people are gonna 637 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 7: be all off of Chris Gobwin after last week's dud. 638 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:13,119 Speaker 7: I still think he's capable of maybe putting some together. 639 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 7: Mike Evans is a guy who's you know, I think 640 00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:18,280 Speaker 7: you can always have a little bit of exposure to regardless. 641 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:18,320 Speaker 5: Of the matchup. 642 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:19,679 Speaker 7: And then the other side of the ball, we at 643 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:22,919 Speaker 7: least know, you know, the offense is flowing through Lamar Jackson, 644 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 7: and you know he is going to be getting his 645 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 7: massive rushing floor every single game it seems like so, 646 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,160 Speaker 7: but I mean it's gonna be a slow pace there, 647 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 7: and obviously James has the potential to kind of ruin 648 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:36,400 Speaker 7: things for that offense pretty quickly. So yeah, I think 649 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 7: most exposure here Pittsburgh, New England and a Cowboys Golts. 650 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 1: Sean, what do you think? 651 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 8: Yeah, Like we were talking before the pod, I love 652 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 8: this Raiders Bengals matchup as a sneaky stack. There's not 653 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,520 Speaker 8: really a great quarterback in this game. But like I 654 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 8: mentioned earlier, this this week is so finit quarterback. I 655 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 8: don't think it's crazy to have like a Driscoll or 656 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 8: Car team. And you know, like Ian mentioned a great 657 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 8: call on someone like John Ross, you have Jared Cook. 658 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 8: There's just like you know, some cheaper mid range guys 659 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 8: here and then kind of spend up elsewhere and have 660 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 8: you know, fit in a couple studs. Maybe, like we 661 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 8: were talking about earlier, having a Berkeley Zeke team and 662 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 8: then you kind of have a mini Raiders Bengal stack. 663 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:22,160 Speaker 8: But you know, both these defenses are terrible. Neither team 664 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 8: really has much to play for us, so I didn't 665 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 8: get out of hand, and can be pretty high scoring, 666 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:29,120 Speaker 8: especially on a week where you know, it's like you mentioned, 667 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:31,840 Speaker 8: every game is about a forty six total, so there's 668 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 8: not much separating these and I just think this game 669 00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 8: has some sneaky shootout potential. 670 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 6: All right, let's get to the pseudo bold called non 671 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 6: obvious pick section of the show. Ian Let's start with 672 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:47,960 Speaker 6: you give us one pick for a game in one 673 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 6: pick for fantasy. 674 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 7: I'll start off with the fantasy. So I was talking 675 00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 7: earlier about Ab and Juju's correlation being pretty terrible together 676 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 7: at a minus zero point six, Well, I don't feel 677 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 7: and Stefan diggs correlation together is actually a positive plus 678 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:06,680 Speaker 7: zero point two, so you know, not a huge relationship. 679 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 7: But we have seen cousins when things are going right 680 00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 7: for the Vikings, and know really beet it to those 681 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 7: two guys. So my bold DFS call is both Steeling 682 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:18,880 Speaker 7: and Diggs get over twenty DraftKings points this week against 683 00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 7: that banged up Dolphin secondary. My bold that call will 684 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:26,200 Speaker 7: be the Raiders go into Cincinnati and get an outright victory. 685 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 5: I laughed at Chris Rabon. 686 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 7: I shouldn't have laughed because he was giving Derek Carr 687 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 7: some props on our last podcast. And hey, I mean, 688 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:35,240 Speaker 7: if you pull up his stats from this year and 689 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 7: compare him to his alleged twenty sixteen MVP candid season, 690 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:40,120 Speaker 7: I don't think he should have enough for the award then. 691 00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 5: But if you just compare the stats, the Raiders. 692 00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 7: Are more or less getting the best Derek car they've 693 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 7: ever gotten this year, believe it or not. So if 694 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 7: that terrible defense can at least slow down Jeff driscoing company, 695 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 7: I think a Car and those guys have enough to 696 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,560 Speaker 7: get it done against the league who are scoring defense. 697 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,720 Speaker 7: So give me digs and deeling and I'll take the 698 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 7: Raiders to win. 699 00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:59,000 Speaker 1: All right, Sean, what do you have? 700 00:30:59,880 --> 00:31:03,080 Speaker 8: I'm sticking with this game the Bengals Raiders. I have 701 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 8: this going way over the total and scoring sixty or 702 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:10,440 Speaker 8: more points. And for DFS, I'm sticking with my my 703 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 8: QB theme. I think the top scoring QB on the 704 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 8: main slate will be fifty two one hundred or or 705 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 8: less nice Pete's that's including Eli Manning, by the way, 706 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 8: because I think, like I have a feeling, there might 707 00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 8: be some situation where they announce, you know, they'll go 708 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 8: with Well for the rest of the season, and this 709 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 8: could be like Eli's final game narrative. 710 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:34,880 Speaker 4: Do you guys think that's possible at all? 711 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,400 Speaker 2: Or I'm playing better though that's the issue. I don't know. 712 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:40,720 Speaker 2: Probably it could be, though I see what you're saying. 713 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, it wouldn't be like Kobe Bryant last 714 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:46,000 Speaker 8: game era if I'm assuming he'll just dump it off 715 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 8: to Barkley the whole game. But it could be an 716 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 8: interesting angle if they do announce something like that. 717 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:52,520 Speaker 1: Pete, what do you got? 718 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 9: I can't I can't even go to Amari Cooper because 719 00:31:54,720 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 9: it's not bold this week considering he's the chalk. So 720 00:31:57,600 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 9: I'll move away from that and I'll say Tampa Bay 721 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 9: shows up in a big way here and gets the 722 00:32:02,480 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 9: w like the Godwin call from Ian I think he 723 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 9: burned everyone last week. He comes in and low owned 724 00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 9: and win someone the millionaire maker. Tampa Bay wins wins 725 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 9: this game behind Jamis and Godwin. 726 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 6: Okay, for the game. The Giants are favored by two 727 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 6: and a half at home. I don't think they're good 728 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 6: enough to be laying points to any team not starting 729 00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,680 Speaker 6: a backup quarterback. The Titans are coming off a big 730 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,560 Speaker 6: Thursday night win, so they have extra time to prepare 731 00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 6: for the game. They're still fighting for a playoff spot. 732 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 6: At seven and six, they're in a must win game. 733 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 6: The Giants really have little to nothing to play for 734 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 6: their last in the league in past Dvoa against number 735 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 6: one wide receivers. I think the Titans win by double digits. 736 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,800 Speaker 6: And then my bold fantasy call, this is wild. Last 737 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,400 Speaker 6: week we saw the Dolphins troll the Pats and getting 738 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 6: two touchdowns to former Patriots special team or Brandon Bolden. 739 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:51,080 Speaker 6: I think this week we see something similar with Steven 740 00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:54,480 Speaker 6: Ridley getting two goal line touchdowns in a hashtag revenge game. 741 00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 6: I'm sort of joking, but I actually might consider putting 742 00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:00,080 Speaker 6: money on his touchdown prop. Which brings us to the 743 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 6: the prop betting segment of the show, in which the 744 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 6: odds maker sets lines for us. Scott the intern turned 745 00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:08,800 Speaker 6: producers back in action. Shout out to Scott for the 746 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 6: new baby. So we have updated standings for the season, 747 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 6: our guests continue to impress at eighty six and seventy one. 748 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:17,680 Speaker 6: I am eighty five and sixty six, Pete is sixty 749 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 6: five and seventy five, and the odds maker is two 750 00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 6: twelve to two thirty six. So sneaking back toward five hundred. 751 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:26,440 Speaker 6: I got to say, I've had two straight losing weeks. 752 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:28,959 Speaker 6: I'm not happy about it. I crushed in week twelve, 753 00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 6: Sean crushed in week thirteen. We were all around five 754 00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 6: hundred last season, Sean, this is my week. I'm telling you, like, 755 00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 6: get out of my way, or I will stiff arm 756 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 6: you like Derrick Henry. 757 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 4: Yeah. 758 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 8: I mean I made one prop specifically for you, so 759 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:41,800 Speaker 8: hopefully that helps. 760 00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:45,880 Speaker 1: That's gonna be the one I miss. So yeah. 761 00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:48,520 Speaker 6: So just a reminder everyone Shawn's projections be sure to 762 00:33:48,600 --> 00:33:50,840 Speaker 6: check them out in our Fantasy Labs models as well 763 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 6: as our props tools, which aggregate the player props from 764 00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:57,240 Speaker 6: online sports books and then compares them to Shawn's projections 765 00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:00,440 Speaker 6: and shows you which bets provide the most value.

But it's been really tricky for me 773 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:24,440 Speaker 8: to project Josh Allen's rushing yards. So I'm gonna have 774 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:26,719 Speaker 8: you guys help me sort that out. Right now, I 775 00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:30,120 Speaker 8: have his over under a fifty and a half rushing yards. 776 00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:31,719 Speaker 5: I love this under here. 777 00:34:31,760 --> 00:34:34,200 Speaker 7: And yeah, like I was saying earlier, only nineteen percent 778 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:37,000 Speaker 7: of his runs this year have been on design play, 779 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:39,760 Speaker 7: so he's just scrambling around making plays with Hey, it's 780 00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:43,120 Speaker 7: been working. Obviously, we're seeing like Michael Vick esque usually 781 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:44,839 Speaker 7: production not even a joke, but. 782 00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:47,480 Speaker 5: Look, this is just like the worst possible matchup. 783 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:50,239 Speaker 7: The Lions have allowed sixty two rushing yards to quarterbacks 784 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,320 Speaker 7: all season. I mean, they run a ton of zone 785 00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 7: guys you know, usually have their you know eyes the 786 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 7: line of scrimmage, and it would it would be less 787 00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,439 Speaker 7: of an issue if they were facing guy like Lamar 788 00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:01,399 Speaker 7: Jackson more or less being used the running back. 789 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:04,480 Speaker 5: But we've seen Dak go for two yard Russell Wilson fifteen, 790 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 5: Trubisky eighteen. 791 00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:09,359 Speaker 7: Camilly had two against the Lions, So hey, Lions might 792 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 7: have a terrible defense, but man, can they stop that? 793 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:13,760 Speaker 5: Qb run so Ian. 794 00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 6: I have a question I want to ask you about 795 00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 6: this so I and the statistic you pointed out. I 796 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:20,839 Speaker 6: think it makes a lot of sense just in terms 797 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:24,080 Speaker 6: of Josh Allen as a passer, Like if his first 798 00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:26,880 Speaker 6: read isn't there, he's just pulling the ball down and running. 799 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:29,920 Speaker 6: Do you think that he's going to still do that 800 00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:32,320 Speaker 6: in this game? Like he's going to have a similar 801 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:34,880 Speaker 6: number of rushing attempts as we've seen, but he's just 802 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:37,360 Speaker 6: going to do it with much less effectiveness because of 803 00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:40,320 Speaker 6: the zone that the Lions play. Or do you think 804 00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:43,440 Speaker 6: because the Lions play more of his zone, he's just 805 00:35:43,480 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 6: not going to run the. 806 00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:46,879 Speaker 1: Ball as frequently his as he has in the past 807 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 1: few games. 808 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:49,480 Speaker 7: Yeah, I don't think he's going to be running it 809 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:51,759 Speaker 7: as frequently because I think the rushing lanes that are 810 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:54,560 Speaker 7: usually there for him are going to be occupied with defenders. 811 00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:57,319 Speaker 7: So yeah, that should open up, you know, ideally more 812 00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:01,719 Speaker 7: downfield opportunities. I'm kind of impression that this is a 813 00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 7: kind of it's gonna this game is gonna go very 814 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:05,160 Speaker 7: well for the Bills. I think their offense is gonna 815 00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 7: have a hard time moving the ball without Allen's rushing ability. 816 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:10,319 Speaker 7: And I don't think he's disciplined enough to kind of 817 00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:14,120 Speaker 7: consistently win passing the ball. So I'm not gonna have 818 00:36:14,200 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 7: much exposure to the Bill's offense with all this week. 819 00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:19,880 Speaker 6: Yeah, this is a hard one for me. I'm going 820 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,080 Speaker 6: I'm going to take the over, and I know I'm 821 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:25,160 Speaker 6: being the donkey by taking the over. I just think 822 00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:28,719 Speaker 6: since he's returned, like there's just been a switch that's 823 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:31,600 Speaker 6: kind of like flipped in his head of like if 824 00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:34,080 Speaker 6: his read isn't there, he's just taking off and running 825 00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:36,960 Speaker 6: and kind of doing his best Cam Newton impersonation. 826 00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:37,719 Speaker 1: I don't know. 827 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:39,320 Speaker 6: I know it's not a good matchup for him to 828 00:36:39,360 --> 00:36:41,560 Speaker 6: do that, but I don't know. I think he's just 829 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 6: just going to like run probably ten to thirteen times 830 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:48,239 Speaker 6: this game, and I think that gives him a really 831 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:49,200 Speaker 6: good chance of going over. 832 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,360 Speaker 2: Well under, I got to make up some ground and freedman. 833 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:55,319 Speaker 1: I know I'm taking the donkey side on this. 834 00:36:56,000 --> 00:36:58,200 Speaker 8: Yeah, we'll see, we'll see what. Like Bobada throws up 835 00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:02,880 Speaker 8: I think he'll be close. So next up, Kirk Cousins 836 00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 8: just had his OC fired after that just dreadful performance 837 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:09,960 Speaker 8: on Mint Football. I'm curious to see or hear what 838 00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:12,879 Speaker 8: you guys think how he's gonna do this week at 839 00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 8: home against the Dolphins. Right now, I have his over 840 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:19,240 Speaker 8: under passing yards at two seventy five and a half over. 841 00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, I like the over there. 842 00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:23,719 Speaker 7: I do think there are a few pauses for a 843 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:25,800 Speaker 7: concern to I mean, he's kind of had a gnostic 844 00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,000 Speaker 7: home away splits throughout his career, so I wouldn't say 845 00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 7: going back to Dome is necessarily a great thing for him. 846 00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:33,920 Speaker 7: But yeah, I think just having this new OC, they're 847 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 7: still in the playoff human, they're gonna try to kick 848 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:36,439 Speaker 7: in the gear. 849 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 6: So I'll take the over Sean. What was that line again, 850 00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:45,520 Speaker 6: two seventy five? Yeah, I think it's pretty good. I'm 851 00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:47,319 Speaker 6: gonna take the under, all right. 852 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 8: Next up, Josh Johnson total DK points at Jacksonville over 853 00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:57,600 Speaker 8: under thirteen and a half over he can run. 854 00:37:58,680 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm taking over too. 855 00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:02,040 Speaker 5: I'm taking the under. 856 00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 7: We saw him run in some garbage time and it's 857 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:07,880 Speaker 7: a bad Giants defense. I mean, I know the Jaguars 858 00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:10,920 Speaker 7: shouldn't have our benefit of the doubt at this point either, 859 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:14,319 Speaker 7: But man, I mean, the guy's down sixteen passes since 860 00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:17,120 Speaker 7: twenty eleven. I mean, I gotta take the under no 861 00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:17,839 Speaker 7: matter what it is. 862 00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:22,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, twenty five k points and like just under a half. 863 00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 2: Nuts. 864 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 6: He was a good running quarterback, you know, like back 865 00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:30,200 Speaker 6: in the day, like two thousand and nine, twenty eleven, 866 00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:31,480 Speaker 6: and then in college at. 867 00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:32,600 Speaker 1: San Diego State. 868 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,920 Speaker 6: I believe, no San Diego, it was just San Diego, 869 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,480 Speaker 6: but like under John Harbaugh, he was a good running 870 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:41,960 Speaker 6: quarterback in college. So like, I think that's just kind 871 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:43,359 Speaker 6: of like his style of game. 872 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:48,719 Speaker 8: Next up, running back Derrick Henry po rushing yards at 873 00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:52,880 Speaker 8: the Giants over under sixty four and a half. 874 00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:55,799 Speaker 7: I'll go under and say he doesn't have his second 875 00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:56,760 Speaker 7: best game of the season. 876 00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:00,000 Speaker 2: I'll go under two. 877 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:04,239 Speaker 1: I like that call, Okay, I will I'll take the ander. 878 00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:09,720 Speaker 8: Next up, Jalen Samuels, assuming Connor is out again this week, obviously, 879 00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 8: total rush plus receiving yards versus the Patriots over under 880 00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:15,240 Speaker 8: eighty two and a half. 881 00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:17,920 Speaker 2: I was hoping you throw out a low number. 882 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:20,239 Speaker 1: I'll take the under. 883 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:24,640 Speaker 7: I'll take the over here just because I think there's 884 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:27,960 Speaker 7: a scenario where Samuels maybe Advance McDonald wind up kind 885 00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:29,879 Speaker 7: of getting a bunch of opportunities to eat the middle 886 00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,480 Speaker 7: of the field. If I mean, if New England's able 887 00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:35,040 Speaker 7: to take away these two receivers, pretty freaking hard to do. 888 00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:38,400 Speaker 7: But Samuels and Vance would be the next guy's up 889 00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:40,080 Speaker 7: to eat those targets, and we did see. 890 00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:41,760 Speaker 5: Dolvin Cook and al Drick Robinson. 891 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:43,920 Speaker 7: I think go for ten and nine targets when the 892 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:45,200 Speaker 7: Vikings and Patriots play. 893 00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 5: So I'll take the other. 894 00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I wanted to take the over. I thought you 895 00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:50,240 Speaker 2: throw it a little lower number. 896 00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:54,200 Speaker 3: In the Patriots' biggest weakness on defenses. They're so slow 897 00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:56,959 Speaker 3: in the middle of the field, especially a linebacker, which 898 00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:02,359 Speaker 3: really sets up well for sam Mules. I'll still take 899 00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:06,839 Speaker 3: the over. But that's an aggressive line. 900 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:07,439 Speaker 4: All right. 901 00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:10,240 Speaker 8: So I think this question is very important for cash 902 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 8: games this week. But who do you think will score 903 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:16,000 Speaker 8: more DK points? Saquon Barkley or Zeke Elliott. 904 00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:18,280 Speaker 1: That's tough. 905 00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:21,320 Speaker 4: I haven't pretty much tied at the moment. 906 00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:28,240 Speaker 7: I'm going to Saquon just because I think Beckham seems 907 00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:30,680 Speaker 7: to be still banged up, and I mean, we saw 908 00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:33,960 Speaker 7: Saquon get fourteen carries and five targets last week and 909 00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:36,360 Speaker 7: thirty one snaps. He they even played fifty percent of 910 00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:38,960 Speaker 7: snaps because they were up so much. And I mean, 911 00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 7: after that whole situation, I thought, kind of the sting 912 00:40:42,080 --> 00:40:44,520 Speaker 7: Shepherd's kind of number one now. But the biggest thing 913 00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:46,520 Speaker 7: from Obj not being there, I think is they're going 914 00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:50,000 Speaker 7: to feed Barkley as much as humanly possible. So I 915 00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:51,440 Speaker 7: think the Titans will be able to keep this one 916 00:40:51,440 --> 00:40:54,000 Speaker 7: a little bit closer than Park Sanchez and the Redskins could. 917 00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:57,160 Speaker 7: So four quarters of Barkley as the the man, I 918 00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:57,839 Speaker 7: will take him. 919 00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:00,319 Speaker 1: I'm going to go with that as well. 920 00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:02,880 Speaker 6: I think he has a higher ceiling, maybe even slightly 921 00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:05,680 Speaker 6: higher floor, and in the end, he's a home favorite, 922 00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:07,760 Speaker 6: whereas Zeke is a road dog. 923 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 9: Yeah, I have to go Saquon too. I mean, he's 924 00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:13,239 Speaker 9: more expensive. I think Zeke's a better value. I think 925 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:16,520 Speaker 9: they're gonna end up with almost identical props and projections. 926 00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:20,880 Speaker 9: But give me Saquon at home with the PPR scoring. 927 00:41:20,920 --> 00:41:23,040 Speaker 9: He's still even though Elliot's getting more involved, he should 928 00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:24,120 Speaker 9: see a lot of opportunities. 929 00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:25,840 Speaker 2: So I'll take Saquon. 930 00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:28,480 Speaker 8: All right, this one's for you, Freedman. I was gonna 931 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:30,480 Speaker 8: have a line on this, but I actually, as of 932 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 8: right now, I have them having the same yardage prop 933 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:35,120 Speaker 8: So who will have more receiving yards this week? 934 00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:37,320 Speaker 4: Antonio Brown or Juju Smith Schuster. 935 00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:41,279 Speaker 6: This is annoying because I was hoping that you were 936 00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:44,359 Speaker 6: going to skew this towards Juju and I could take 937 00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:46,520 Speaker 6: Antonio at pass yards. 938 00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:49,120 Speaker 8: When I wrote that, I had you know, Brown with 939 00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:51,319 Speaker 8: like four more receiving yards, but as of right now, 940 00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:52,799 Speaker 8: I have him both at eighty two. 941 00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:54,360 Speaker 4: So to pick. 942 00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 9: Him, I'm gonna go contrarian and say Beckham or Antonio Brown. 943 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:04,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I'm gonna do it as well. I actually 944 00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:05,920 Speaker 6: I don't even think that. I mean, I don't know 945 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:09,799 Speaker 6: if that's contrariyan or not. I know, Juju obviously has 946 00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 6: more yards for the season, but I actually think that 947 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:17,400 Speaker 6: based on how they have covered really strong slot receivers 948 00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:20,160 Speaker 6: in the past, they are going to look to take 949 00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:22,239 Speaker 6: away Juju and like kind of like from a game 950 00:42:22,280 --> 00:42:24,840 Speaker 6: three perspective, like it's always hard to know how Belichick 951 00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:27,239 Speaker 6: is going to game plan, but I could see them 952 00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:29,200 Speaker 6: doing a thing where it's like we're going to take 953 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:33,280 Speaker 6: away everyone else except Antonio Brown and hope that Gilmore 954 00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:36,160 Speaker 6: is good enough to beat him on a few plays. 955 00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:37,319 Speaker 5: So I don't know. 956 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:39,719 Speaker 1: I will go with Antonio. I think it's a good 957 00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:40,680 Speaker 1: spot for him. 958 00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:41,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm going with Ab. 959 00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:45,200 Speaker 7: As well mentioned earlier, I'll be kind of fading Juju 960 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:47,920 Speaker 7: this week, just think he could kind of just just 961 00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:49,719 Speaker 7: get skimmed out of the game potentially. 962 00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 5: But as Friedman said, I mean, always. 963 00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:53,680 Speaker 7: Kind of a always a difficult task to kind of 964 00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:56,160 Speaker 7: predict what Bill Belichick those guys. 965 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:57,359 Speaker 5: Are going to do. I will say it that. 966 00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:59,440 Speaker 7: I mean, I think at this point we can easily 967 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:03,239 Speaker 7: call Ju Smiths shoots are the best, I mean, second 968 00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:05,279 Speaker 7: best receiver AB has ever played with. It was more 969 00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:07,840 Speaker 7: or less a running back Leveon Bell for these last 970 00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:10,600 Speaker 7: three or four years, even without that, we have seen 971 00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:13,680 Speaker 7: Ab kind of consistently produce against the Patriots. He's gone, 972 00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:15,880 Speaker 7: you know, one hundred and thirty three yards and a touchdown, 973 00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:19,120 Speaker 7: one hundred and six yards seventy seven yards last kind 974 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:22,399 Speaker 7: of three full appearances against them. So even when Ab 975 00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:24,920 Speaker 7: was the only guy in the offense for Bellichick to 976 00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:27,320 Speaker 7: deal with, he was still able to have moderate success. 977 00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:30,120 Speaker 7: So I'll say this week that moderate success is huge 978 00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:32,319 Speaker 7: success and go with ab all Right. 979 00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:36,200 Speaker 8: Next up, Kenny Galladay. I keep waiting for him a breakout, 980 00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:39,200 Speaker 8: and he just keeps getting worse. Granted, he did, you know, 981 00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:41,200 Speaker 8: have to go up against Patrick Peterson last week, but 982 00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:44,160 Speaker 8: still two catches for five yards and no touchdowns. 983 00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:46,640 Speaker 4: I really don't know what to do with him this 984 00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:47,600 Speaker 4: week at Buffalo. 985 00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:50,319 Speaker 8: I don't know if it's really Stafford's fault, but right 986 00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:53,160 Speaker 8: now I have his overrunner at sixty and a half 987 00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:54,319 Speaker 8: receiving yards. 988 00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:56,160 Speaker 1: I will take the under. 989 00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:00,560 Speaker 7: I wrote down sixty in my notes, Dan, I'm taking 990 00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:02,520 Speaker 7: the I'm taking the over here. I was off on 991 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:06,080 Speaker 7: this last week, but Galladay only ended up running about 992 00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:08,680 Speaker 7: sixty percent of his routes on Peterson. I think the 993 00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:11,239 Speaker 7: bigger problem was that Stafford had the fourth view his 994 00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:14,160 Speaker 7: pass attempts of his career last week. I mean, just 995 00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:16,759 Speaker 7: pretty much the worst possible game flow to go with 996 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:20,080 Speaker 7: that matchup. I mean, this week's matchup really isn't all 997 00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:22,320 Speaker 7: that much easier. Is you go to see Tredevious White, 998 00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:24,640 Speaker 7: one of the best young cornerbacks in the league, on 999 00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:27,240 Speaker 7: you know, potentially even more than six percent of his routes. 1000 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:30,800 Speaker 7: But I just think Galladay still is the clear cut 1001 00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:33,919 Speaker 7: number one receiver in that offense. Now Bruce Ellington's even 1002 00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:36,880 Speaker 7: more banged up, I think he's got the talent to 1003 00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:38,680 Speaker 7: uh not have that terrible of a game in two 1004 00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:42,120 Speaker 7: consecutive weeks. So I'll take the over beate. 1005 00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:45,319 Speaker 9: Man, I'll take under I've wanted him to just go off. 1006 00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:49,480 Speaker 9: It's a tough matchup, but I love Galladay higher being 1007 00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:52,400 Speaker 9: the media and just a brutal matchup unfortunately. 1008 00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:56,080 Speaker 6: I mean, like we've talked before about how Buffalo's defense 1009 00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:59,040 Speaker 6: is really good, but like Trdavious White, like he had 1010 00:44:59,080 --> 00:45:01,279 Speaker 6: a really good rookie year last year, and I don't 1011 00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:03,319 Speaker 6: think he got the credit he kind of deserved for 1012 00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:06,480 Speaker 6: it because he was overshadowed by Marshaw Lattimore who had 1013 00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:09,680 Speaker 6: just like a phenomenal rookie season as a cornerback in 1014 00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:13,200 Speaker 6: New Orleans. But yeah, I mean I think tra Davis White, 1015 00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:15,759 Speaker 6: he's kind of you know, he's like proven himself once 1016 00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:18,560 Speaker 6: again in a sophomore campaign. Like he's he's a very 1017 00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:20,759 Speaker 6: good corner I mean, I don't know if like we 1018 00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:23,320 Speaker 6: can call him yet like a shutdown type of corner, 1019 00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:25,920 Speaker 6: but he has a lot of potential, Like I think 1020 00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:27,040 Speaker 6: it's on the way there for. 1021 00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:29,600 Speaker 4: Him, a right, So moving on to tight end. 1022 00:45:29,960 --> 00:45:34,960 Speaker 8: George Kittle at home against Seattle over under seventy three 1023 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 8: and a half, receiving arts over. 1024 00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:39,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'll take the over. 1025 00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:41,880 Speaker 7: I think I was a little worried last week about 1026 00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:44,799 Speaker 7: him and Pettis with Marquis Goodwin coming back from his 1027 00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:48,360 Speaker 7: personal leave, But I mean it makes sense that Goodwin 1028 00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:51,120 Speaker 7: probably just elevates the whole offense and helps all these guys. 1029 00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:53,640 Speaker 7: I mean he's got, you know, legit field stretching speed 1030 00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:56,600 Speaker 7: on the outside. Obviously a Kittle and Pettis are working 1031 00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:59,239 Speaker 7: a lot inside underneath stuff. So we can see a 1032 00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:02,799 Speaker 7: pretty pote forty nine is passing offense these last few weeks. 1033 00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:05,920 Speaker 7: Apparently we know Kyle Shanahan isn't taking his foot off 1034 00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:06,360 Speaker 7: the gas. 1035 00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:07,680 Speaker 5: So I'll take the over here. 1036 00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:10,680 Speaker 2: At the over It's an easy one for me too. 1037 00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:14,920 Speaker 6: Sean random question to be the ender. Random question if 1038 00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:19,239 Speaker 6: you had to power rank like tight ends right now, 1039 00:46:19,680 --> 00:46:23,200 Speaker 6: where would Kittle rank for you? And you know, in 1040 00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:26,920 Speaker 6: terms of fantasy, just in terms of like overall kind 1041 00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:30,239 Speaker 6: of like ability as an NFL tight end, you know, 1042 00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:33,120 Speaker 6: like I think Kelsey's probably number one, Kittle might be 1043 00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:34,000 Speaker 6: number two for me. 1044 00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:37,040 Speaker 8: Yeah, over Ertz, I could Yeah, I would argue with that, 1045 00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:41,000 Speaker 8: but i'd probably I'd probably have Kittle third right now. Yeah, yeah, 1046 00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:44,320 Speaker 8: he's He's definitely top three. So the there's a trio 1047 00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:47,040 Speaker 8: of tight ends just under Kittle that I think we 1048 00:46:47,080 --> 00:46:48,960 Speaker 8: need to pay attention to this week. So I have 1049 00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:53,560 Speaker 8: a total touchdowns prop by all three. So gronk Ebron, 1050 00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:57,120 Speaker 8: and Jared Cook, Well they combine for over under one 1051 00:46:57,160 --> 00:46:59,280 Speaker 8: and a half receiving touchdowns. 1052 00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:03,280 Speaker 1: Smash, smash the over. Ebron gets it ry himself. 1053 00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:06,759 Speaker 7: I like how sean to say receiving touchdowns because we're 1054 00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:08,680 Speaker 7: talking about Eric Ebron here, So yeah. 1055 00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:10,360 Speaker 2: The rushing touchdo when he's sneaking. 1056 00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:16,560 Speaker 10: Oh man, I'll take the under here all right, Last, 1057 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:20,919 Speaker 10: but not least, Vernon Davis at Jacksonville, No, Jordan Reed 1058 00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:24,120 Speaker 10: over under forty three and a half receiving urns. 1059 00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:27,759 Speaker 1: Hey, it's a really good line. I'll take the over, 1060 00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:29,760 Speaker 1: but I do like that line. 1061 00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:33,359 Speaker 7: I'll take the over as a you guys have said, 1062 00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:36,080 Speaker 7: and makes sense for Johnson to focus more on Davis 1063 00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:38,960 Speaker 7: and not throw it outside against Ramsey and Boyer all 1064 00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:41,279 Speaker 7: that much. And look, we have seen Vernon a little 1065 00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:42,880 Speaker 7: bit this year. I mean, I guess the Cowboys he 1066 00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:44,959 Speaker 7: had like a nice sixty yard touchdown. The guys still 1067 00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:46,839 Speaker 7: got wheels, and he can still kind of make these 1068 00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:49,200 Speaker 7: splash plays we don't see from a lot of tight ends, 1069 00:47:49,200 --> 00:47:51,320 Speaker 7: so he could feasibly get that. 1070 00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:53,160 Speaker 5: You know yards prop on one or two catches. So 1071 00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:53,960 Speaker 5: I'll take the old. 1072 00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:58,440 Speaker 9: I guess I'm taking over too, but I don't have 1073 00:47:58,520 --> 00:48:01,200 Speaker 9: as much condition about you. Guys could just be really 1074 00:48:01,200 --> 00:48:03,600 Speaker 9: really ugly, But for David should get involved, and I 1075 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:06,400 Speaker 9: think just from a scheme perspective, he should. 1076 00:48:06,200 --> 00:48:08,280 Speaker 2: Be the one that gets more targets than usual. 1077 00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:12,319 Speaker 1: All right, Ian, what pieces of yours are coming out 1078 00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:12,840 Speaker 1: this week? 1079 00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:16,799 Speaker 7: We got your wide Receiver, cornerback breakdown probably coming out 1080 00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:22,120 Speaker 7: later today along with matchup manifesto, looking at pace, explosive plays, 1081 00:48:22,239 --> 00:48:25,080 Speaker 7: run game, pass game everything higher level of view for 1082 00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:28,279 Speaker 7: the week, and then obviously Sunday night, as always, I'll 1083 00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:29,840 Speaker 7: be back on the pop of Chris Raymond and go 1084 00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:31,080 Speaker 7: over everything that just happened. 1085 00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:32,840 Speaker 6: All right, that is going to do it for this 1086 00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:36,440 Speaker 6: episode of the Action Network NFL Podcast.
