1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:14,240
Speaker 1: Wow, Hey everybody, It's Thursday, November ninth, twenty twenty three.

2
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:17,239
Speaker 1: Welcome to the NFL Fantasy Football Show. It's me and

3
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:19,639
Speaker 1: your man, MG, Marcus Grant, joined by Michael F.

4
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:20,080
Speaker 2: Floria.

5
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:23,479
Speaker 1: On today's show, we are previewing the rest of the

6
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:26,640
Speaker 1: week ten slate, plus we're giving you our fantasy heroes,

7
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:31,400
Speaker 1: diving into the afternoon games on Sunday.

8
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:32,800
Speaker 2: In the primetime games as well.

9
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:36,200
Speaker 1: We'll start down in the desert the Atlanta Falcons, coming

10
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:39,480
Speaker 1: off that shocking loss to Josh Dobbs and the Vikings,

11
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 1: they will try and regroup against the Arizona Cardinals. And

12
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:45,959
Speaker 1: the big news here, Kyler Murray is back making his

13
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:49,519
Speaker 1: debut in twenty twenty three, coming off the torn acl

14
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,280
Speaker 1: from last season. We're all excited to see Kyler back.

15
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:54,960
Speaker 1: A lot of folks have been stashing Kyler Murray all

16
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 1: season long. Should those people put Kyler Murray back in

17
00:00:58,160 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 1: their lineup? This week?

18
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 3: Losses brought to you by FedEx. That's the first thing

19
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 3: I was thinking of when.

20
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:04,959
Speaker 2: When you were talking about that.

21
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,560
Speaker 3: I have Kyler Murray as a sit this week, but

22
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:11,959
Speaker 3: with some context, right, like, if you have you've gotten

23
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 3: this far without Kyler Murray. I think it's okay to

24
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 3: show some patients. I know the Falcons have struggled against

25
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,080
Speaker 3: the past as of late, but it's his first game

26
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:22,680
Speaker 3: in a year. Thirty percent of his Fantasy points last

27
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:24,960
Speaker 3: year and in his career have come off of the

28
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,560
Speaker 3: run and first game off of a town acl. I

29
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 3: am not expecting Kyler to run like he normally does.

30
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 3: But it's all about context. Like if you're like I

31
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 3: need to decide between Kyler Murray or Mac Jones as

32
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:37,319
Speaker 3: a streaming.

33
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 2: Like, yeah, then you go Kyler Murray. But if you

34
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:40,400
Speaker 2: have an option that you feel.

35
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 3: Pretty comfortable with, or maybe even someone like Genal Smith

36
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 3: that you could plug in, and I would go with

37
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 3: that over Kyler This.

38
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 1: Yeah you said you mentioned Mac Jones. I mean I'd

39
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 1: start Kyler over him. I'd start Kyler over I don't

40
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 1: go through the list of you know, Jordan Love, Yes,

41
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 1: you know guys like that. If that's who you have

42
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 1: to start, then Kyler is definitely going to be your guy. Look,

43
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 1: if you still have a you know, Smith and your

44
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 1: roster and he's available for you, I would start I

45
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 1: would start him. I will say this though, my bold

46
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 1: prediction for the week is that Tyler Murray comes out

47
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 1: and throws three touchdown passes in his return. He reminds

48
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,360
Speaker 1: us how good he is and all of that weird

49
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,959
Speaker 1: offseason chatter about, like maybe he doesn't play, like we

50
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 1: all forget about that, will pretended that never happened, because

51
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:24,679
Speaker 1: Kyler's still good at football. I wasn't go I wasn't

52
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 1: gonna names He's still good at football. He's going to

53
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 1: remind us of that. And you know, I don't know

54
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 1: if the Cardinals win, but I think Kyler comes out

55
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: and he plays well and he helps Mark.

56
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,080
Speaker 2: He's Brown and Trey McBride side note.

57
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 1: I was looking on Wednesday morning and nearly twenty five

58
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: thousand people dropped Trey McBride.

59
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 2: I don't understand it.

60
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 1: Make it is because he had a bad game with

61
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 1: Clayton Tune against the Browns. That's the reason you drop

62
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 1: Trey McBride. He's getting a ton of targets. There's no

63
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 1: zach Ertz. He's gonna play a lot. He should be

64
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,919
Speaker 1: in raw. He's still available in like seventy percent of

65
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 1: NFL dot com leagues. Make it makes sense. I don't understand.

66
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:06,160
Speaker 1: All right, let me regroup, Lions at the Chargers. That

67
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,959
Speaker 1: game being played right next door in Sofi Stadium, what

68
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,360
Speaker 1: I think could be maybe the highest scoring game of

69
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:15,640
Speaker 1: the week between two really good offenses. Jamiir Gibbs has

70
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,080
Speaker 1: been playing really well. He's been getting all the volume

71
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 1: that we dreamed of when the Lions drafted him.

72
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 2: That seems great.

73
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 1: David Montgomery is coming back and he is going to

74
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,639
Speaker 1: wreck everyone's dreams. Now mine because I have David Montgomery

75
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:27,839
Speaker 1: and I sort of need him back in a couple

76
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 1: of lineups, so I'm excited.

77
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 2: To see him back.

78
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,079
Speaker 1: But can we trust Jamior Gibbs once Montgomery is back

79
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 1: on the field.

80
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 3: I think it's a situation where you just play both

81
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 3: of them moving forward. Look, David Montgomery is going to

82
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 3: continue to be adorn in the side of Gibbs. Managers,

83
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 3: He's going to get the goal on work. I'm not

84
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 3: disputing that. But I think we could see Gibbs more

85
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 3: involved now than he was early in the year when

86
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,120
Speaker 3: Monty was healthy and doing his thing. It wouldn't surprise

87
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 3: me if we.

88
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 2: See a fifty to fifty split or close to it.

89
00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 3: Maybe they rotate drives and then obviously, yeah, Gibbs giving

90
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 3: up the touchdowns is going to put a cap on

91
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 3: his fantasy upside.

92
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 2: But we've seen like so much.

93
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 3: Bursts and explosiveness and big plays out of him. I

94
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 3: don't think they could just put the genie back in

95
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 3: the bottle and say, Okay, you're just gonna be a

96
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 3: complimentary piece again.

97
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 2: Watch them watch that happen.

98
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I feel like they sort of told us

99
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 1: what they want with Jamiir Gibbs early in the season

100
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:25,839
Speaker 1: when he wasn't getting that opportunity, and maybe he gets

101
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,040
Speaker 1: a little bit more. But I think part of what

102
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,479
Speaker 1: we saw the last couple of weeks was also Craig

103
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 1: Reynold's not being completely healthy. It was a lot of

104
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: situational stuff that sort of led to Gibbs getting those opportunities.

105
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,560
Speaker 1: I think David Montgomery goes back to being the RB one.

106
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: We're gonna be frustrated.

107
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 2: Now.

108
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,280
Speaker 1: Look, Gibbs, because he's explosive, has the chance to turn

109
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 1: a few opportunities into some decent numbers. But I think

110
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,280
Speaker 1: you're gonna go back to being frustrated again. I mean

111
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 1: not me, because, like I said, I drafted David Montgomery

112
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 1: and I want him in my lineup. But the rest

113
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 1: of you, you're gonna go back to being disappointed again

114
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 1: with Jamiir Gibbs Giants at the Cowboys. We don't necessarily

115
00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: talk numbers here, but the Cowboys are favored by one

116
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:12,039
Speaker 1: of the larger numbers that you're going to see. Understandably,

117
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 1: because things are bleak for the Giants. Tommy de Vito

118
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 1: has been named the starting quarterback. Matt Barkley will back

119
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 1: him up. So who's going to have more Fantasy points,

120
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:28,040
Speaker 1: Saquon Barkley or the Cowboys dst Cowboys DS.

121
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 3: In Week one, Sakon went out and gave you nine

122
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 3: point three against this Cowboys defense. The Cowboys defense scored

123
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 3: thirty five. And that was with Daniel Jones healthy, Darren

124
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 3: Waller healthy, all of the Giants healthy. They are not

125
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 3: healthy anymore, all of outside of Saquon, pretty much all

126
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 3: their big names sidelined. And then Danny DeVito, who I

127
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 3: found out from Marcus this morning still.

128
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,720
Speaker 2: Lives at home at home, Yeah.

129
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 3: Which is like he's a starting quarterback in.

130
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,039
Speaker 2: The NFL wild He's I mean, at least get a roommate.

131
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the look you're starting Saquon because he's

132
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:08,280
Speaker 3: Saquon Barkley in situations this week, but he's on bustwatch

133
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 3: and the Cowboys defense.

134
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 2: Is a must stark gonna go off.

135
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,039
Speaker 1: The Cowboys defense an absolute must start, And yeah, you're

136
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 1: probably right. I'm gonna say the Cowboys don't score thirty

137
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 1: five points defensively, but I think Saquon is going to

138
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 1: struggle to get to double digits because he's all there

139
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,599
Speaker 1: is right now. If you're Dallas, your whole goal is

140
00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 1: to take away Saquon and don't let him be the

141
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,719
Speaker 1: one to beat you. So I do think the Cowboys

142
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:37,600
Speaker 1: defense scores more. Yeh sad sad times in New York. Indeed,

143
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 1: by the way, it's been a while since Tony Pollard

144
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 1: has officially scored a touchdown. He scored a touchdown last

145
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,600
Speaker 1: week that we saw and it got taken away. Does

146
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 1: Tony Pollard officially score a touchdown this week?

147
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 2: Yes?

148
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, because the Cowboys are gonna be up so big

149
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 3: that they're gonna be like, all right, Tony, we're gonna

150
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 3: give you one.

151
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 2: We'll let you score here.

152
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,479
Speaker 3: No, I continue to be like, I know Tony Pollard

153
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 3: is a what he was last year. He's not living

154
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 3: up to expectations. I get all of that, I still

155
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:06,720
Speaker 3: think the volume is too much to get away from him.

156
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 3: I'm hoping for a couple of big plays or two,

157
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 3: but he hasn't scored a touchdown since Week one. He

158
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 3: is the only player in the NFL with the one

159
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 3: hundred and forty five or more touches, and two touchdowns

160
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 3: are fewer. Eventually, regression has to win out. It has

161
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 3: been a while since he has visited the end zone.

162
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna say yes because I'm also the guy

163
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 1: who's like, whenever somebody's on a touchdown drought every week,

164
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna be like, Yep, this is the week

165
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 1: I did it with Deontay Johnson and he finally scored.

166
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna do it with Tony Pollard too and

167
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 1: say that he finally scores. Honestly, I think the next

168
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 1: couple weeks for Pollard could be really good. They've got

169
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 1: the Giants this week, I believe the Panthers either next

170
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 1: week or the week after. But the Panthers are very

171
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 1: nearby on the schedule as well, so it feels like

172
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 1: anybody who's been struggling with Tony Pollard in their lineup

173
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 1: the next.

174
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 2: Few weeks for you should be pretty good?

175
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 1: That's right? Is it's the Panthers in week eleven? So

176
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 1: the Giants this week, the Panthers next week. So a

177
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 1: couple of really good matchups.

178
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,640
Speaker 3: I have Tony Pollard, I need a big, you know,

179
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:02,960
Speaker 3: bounce back second half, and I know a lot of

180
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 3: others did as well.

181
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 2: A lot of folks do.

182
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 1: The Commanders heading to Seattle to take on the Seahawks.

183
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 1: So the team from Washington DC heading to take on

184
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 1: the team from Washington State. It has been a struggle

185
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 1: for Geno Smith this year, starting to look like last

186
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 1: year might have been the magical season because he has

187
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 1: not been able to replicate that so far this season.

188
00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 1: They get a Commander's defense that has been beat up,

189
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 1: and they lost their two best pass rushers through trades

190
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago. So is this the week

191
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 1: things finally go right for the Seahawks passing attack.

192
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,960
Speaker 3: It has to be like, if Gino Smith flops this week,

193
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 3: I am going to cut him where I have him

194
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 3: because this is the best possible matchup. But I think

195
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,640
Speaker 3: this could be the start of a second half run

196
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,679
Speaker 3: for the Seahawks passing attack. After the Commanders, they get

197
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 3: the Rams, who we've seen get torched through the air

198
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 3: as of late. They get the Niners twice, who, like

199
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 3: you said, have been struggling through the air. The Eagles

200
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 3: have given up so much pass game production. Then they

201
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 3: get the Titans and Steelers to round out. They have

202
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,120
Speaker 3: the best wide receiver schedule the rest of the way,

203
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 3: and one of the best for the fantasy playoffs. So

204
00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 3: I'm actually trying to trade for some Seahawks pass catchers

205
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,080
Speaker 3: this week, but if it doesn't happen this week, I'm

206
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 3: going to be probably kicking myself for trading for them

207
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:13,320
Speaker 3: next week.

208
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 1: I tell you, I have one team where I have

209
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 1: Gino Smith and I'm starting him this week because Tua

210
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 1: is on a bye. I'm sort of hoping that Gino

211
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 1: has a good game so I can trade him and

212
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,720
Speaker 1: maybe upgraded some other positions for the rest of the season,

213
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:30,200
Speaker 1: because once the Dolphins buy is over, I'm probably just

214
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 1: starting two of the rest of the West. Yeah, so

215
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:34,360
Speaker 1: why not see if I can get something out of

216
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 1: Geno Smith. So I sort of need him to play

217
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 1: well for two reasons, one because I'm starting him in

218
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,199
Speaker 1: two because I want his trade value to go up

219
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: so I can bolster my roster the rest of the way.

220
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:46,199
Speaker 1: I do think it happens this week though, against the Commanders.

221
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: Gonna step away for a quick break. Stick around for

222
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 1: more of the NFL Fantasy Football Show. Onto the primetime

223
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 1: games we got Sunday Night football. The New York Jetropolitans.

224
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:04,200
Speaker 1: Fresh off a pretty ugly offensive performance against the Chargers,

225
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 1: they go to Las Vegas to take on the Raiders.

226
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 1: DeVante Adams still could not get going last week. Josh

227
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,280
Speaker 1: Jacobs had a nice game with Antonio Pierce as the

228
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,080
Speaker 1: interim head coach for the first week. Are we still

229
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:21,199
Speaker 1: starting Davante and we still starting Josh Jacobs despite what's

230
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,160
Speaker 1: a pretty tough matchup against a very good Jets defense.

231
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you have to start both of them

232
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,439
Speaker 3: this week. And I did consider maybe being like, oh,

233
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,560
Speaker 3: I want to use Davante as a sit and then

234
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,679
Speaker 3: I was like, he's DeVante Adams, right, I don't care

235
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,840
Speaker 3: how good sauce Gardner is. Sauce Gardner could win ninety

236
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,560
Speaker 3: percent of the time and that other ten percent Davante

237
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:42,560
Speaker 3: could get his and it just takes.

238
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:43,440
Speaker 2: One long play.

239
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,720
Speaker 3: Last week twenty nine percent target share. He has a

240
00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 3: thirty two percent target share in both games with O'Connell,

241
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 3: the volume and everything is still running through him. Game

242
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 3: script worked against him last week because the Giants scored

243
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 3: six points. I know the Jets Tommy DeVito might be

244
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:00,719
Speaker 3: the best starting quarterback in now.

245
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 2: We don't know, but I.

246
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 3: Still think you have to start Adams and Josh Jacobs.

247
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 1: You know, it's funny that reminded me of way back

248
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,439
Speaker 1: in the day when Charlie Ward, who was a two

249
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 1: sports star at Florida State, was the point guard for

250
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:14,680
Speaker 1: the New York Knicks.

251
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:16,479
Speaker 2: Knicks legend, Knicks.

252
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,079
Speaker 1: Legend, Charlie Ward's the point guard, and people at the

253
00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 1: time were saying that Charlie Ward was the best quarterback

254
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 1: in New York because that's how bad things were for

255
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 1: the Giants and the Jets at the time. So here

256
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 1: we are with Tommy the Veto. You're starting DeVante Adams,

257
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,560
Speaker 1: You're starting Josh Jacobs. Those guys are still the focal

258
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,319
Speaker 1: point of the offense. And I know it's been rough

259
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 1: times for DeVante Adams, especially the last few weeks, but

260
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 1: when everything is working, the ceiling is way too high.

261
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,640
Speaker 1: You're still talking about one of the best receivers in

262
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 1: the league. You gotta believe at some point they are

263
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 1: going to make a concerted effort to get him the football.

264
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,360
Speaker 1: So even if the matchup is bad, you just got

265
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,079
Speaker 1: to rely on the talent at this point, and you

266
00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 1: gotta have DeVante Adams in the lineup. I just don't

267
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,880
Speaker 1: see any way you can reasonably get away from him

268
00:11:59,280 --> 00:11:59,959
Speaker 1: at this point.

269
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,320
Speaker 2: Jacoby Myers, any idea about the.

270
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:06,320
Speaker 3: I would try secondary options against this Jets defense.

271
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 2: I think you can sit.

272
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 1: Where Jacobe Myers got a rushing touchdown last week, which

273
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 1: is odd. DeVante this week just blows my mind. I

274
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 1: have no analysis other than I just thought it was amazing.

275
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 1: Monday Night football, the Broncos at the Bills Buffalo, trying

276
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,119
Speaker 1: to bounce back after last week's lost to the Bengals.

277
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,560
Speaker 1: Bronco's playing better. They're not necessarily great, but they're playing

278
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 1: better than they were earlier in the season. But James

279
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 1: Cook has been frustrating. Can we trust him against a

280
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 1: what has been a bad Broncos run defense.

281
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 3: Can you trust him?

282
00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 2: No?

283
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 3: But I think you could start him and give him

284
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 3: one more opportunity. If he doesn't come through this week,

285
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:48,079
Speaker 3: then you could potentially even get him off your roster.

286
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 2: I don't know.

287
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 3: I know James Cook is very frustrated with how he's

288
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 3: being used, as are Bills fans and fantasy managers and

289
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,560
Speaker 3: all of that. But this is about the matchup. The

290
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 3: Broncos have allowed on the season the most fantasy points

291
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:01,600
Speaker 3: per game to running back. That includes the second most

292
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,920
Speaker 3: rushing yards, most yards per carry, six most rushing touchdowns

293
00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,400
Speaker 3: and they are in the top five and catches, receiving yards,

294
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:08,840
Speaker 3: and receiving touchdowns allowed.

295
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 2: So I'm just.

296
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 3: Hoping that even on the limited workload, he could break

297
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:14,240
Speaker 3: out a long run or score a touchdown.

298
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:14,439
Speaker 2: Or something like that.

299
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm still rocking with James Cook, although I have

300
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,199
Speaker 1: downgraded my expectations. Right I thought he was maybe a

301
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 1: high end RB two Right now he's a low end

302
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:22,559
Speaker 1: RB two, maybe more of.

303
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 2: A flex play.

304
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 1: That's just what it is because that's how the Bills

305
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:26,920
Speaker 1: are dishing out their opportunities.

306
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 2: Olatavius Murray is still getting work.

307
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,280
Speaker 1: We'll see if Leonard Fournette gets any opportunities this week,

308
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 1: But it kind of is what it is for James Cook,

309
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,080
Speaker 1: and I think we just have to sort of adjust

310
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 1: our expectations accordingly in this one, It's time to see

311
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 1: who will deliver, presented by Uber Eats talking about the

312
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 1: guys who will lead us to victory. So who is

313
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 1: going to be a fantasy avenger for you this week?

314
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,040
Speaker 2: Christian Kirk? Why?

315
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 3: Because, like Marcus said earlier in the show, the Niners

316
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 3: have allowed a whole bunch of pass game production as

317
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:58,800
Speaker 3: of late. They also run zone coverage seventy seven percent

318
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 3: of the time, that is six percent higher than league average.

319
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 3: Kirk is their best Jaguars receiver against zone coverage. Not

320
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 3: normly does he lead them in every category. He is

321
00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 3: over one hundred more yards than any other player. Plus,

322
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 3: the Niners are gonna put up points, so the Jacks

323
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:14,600
Speaker 3: are gonna have to do so as well.

324
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:16,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I do like Christian Kirk this week.

325
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 1: Like I said, I think he and Evan Ingram both

326
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 1: have some big games against this Niners defense.

327
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 2: For me, it's gonna be Jared Goff.

328
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 1: And we always like to joke Adam Rank likes to

329
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,120
Speaker 1: say that Jared Goff is an indoor cat. We'll see

330
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 1: how he plays sort of on a porch situation, a

331
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 1: covered garage. I'm not sure how it's gonna work over

332
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,200
Speaker 1: in so far, stadium with the canopy. But I do

333
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:39,080
Speaker 1: know that against the Chargers, he is going to ball

334
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 1: out against a secondary that has struggled all year long,

335
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 1: and they've show out against high level quarterback when you

336
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 1: look at quarterbacks currently in the top twelve, the Chargers

337
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 1: have given up big numbers nearly four hundred passing yards

338
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 1: per game with eleven touchdowns. So I think Jared Goff

339
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 1: continues to keep it rolling. I'm on Ross, Saint Brown,

340
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 1: Sam Laporta, all these guys are going to eat against

341
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 1: Chargers coming up this weekend, so it should be a

342
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 1: lot of fun. That game, I think is gonna be

343
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,440
Speaker 1: a lot of fun to watch, maybe the most entertaining

344
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 1: game at least for my purposes on the slate this week.

345
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 1: In Week ten, that was Who Will Deliver, presented by

346
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:17,640
Speaker 1: Uber Eats, where you can get almost almost anything, the

347
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 1: official on demand delivery partner of the NFL.

348
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:20,560
Speaker 2: Order.

349
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:24,400
Speaker 1: Now, so that'll get us through the entirety of Week ten.

350
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,560
Speaker 1: That's a good spot for us to stop and catch

351
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 1: a breath.

352
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:29,840
Speaker 2: That is it. We are done.

353
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 1: We appreciate you hanging out with the NFL Fantasy Football Show.

354
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 1: You know the drill. Tell two friends to tell two

355
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 1: friends rate review, and remember, if we tell people the

356
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:39,320
Speaker 1: brain is an app, maybe.

357
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:40,040
Speaker 2: They'll start using it.

358
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 1: Be safe, take care of yourselves, Enjoy Week ten, and

359
00:15:42,720 --> 00:16:00,120
Speaker 1: we'll talk to you again real soon, but
