00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:21,760
Speaker 2: and this is the Drive on Steelers Nation Radio. And

6
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:24,319
Speaker 2: it is time for the Fantasy Football Focus, as we

7
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,160
Speaker 2: do on Tuesdays. It is Tuesday. I keep having to.

8
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:29,080
Speaker 3: Tell myself it's yeah, it's such a strange week.

9
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 2: It's waiver wire day.

10
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 3: Yes, so it's a weird one. It is a wonderful thing.

11
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, especially with some of the trades that just went

12
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:38,120
Speaker 2: down because of that nature.

13
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:40,320
Speaker 3: Let me just jump the gun because I know his

14
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:44,760
Speaker 3: name's gonna come up. My quarterback situation is so dire

15
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 3: and this is actually now I'm starting in our league,

16
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:50,479
Speaker 3: I'm starting to get okay. But in my other one,

17
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 3: I have Stafford and Watson. I mean, like, I pinted

18
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 3: on quarterback in both leagues and I'm paying for it desperately.

19
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 2: Should I pick up Levis, I'm gonna say no.

20
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 3: I I desperately believe no. But if you see what's

21
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:07,840
Speaker 3: on the waiver wire in my league, like it's like

22
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 3: Dobbs and tea bag and like all the terrible guys

23
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:15,120
Speaker 3: like Daniel Jones isn't even out there. I think Picket

24
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,959
Speaker 3: might be like, we'd rather pick it or Levis for

25
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 3: Thursday Night Picket, Picket. Levis runs a lot, and he

26
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 3: takes shots.

27
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:23,959
Speaker 2: He didn't take some shots.

28
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:25,960
Speaker 3: I'm thinking about picking up one of those two.

29
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 2: I just have a feel like I need help. I've

30
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:34,480
Speaker 2: seen this story before. Steelers against rookie quarterbacks at home

31
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,320
Speaker 2: on a short week in a prime time game in

32
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 2: the league. I've only one I've seen this before. I

33
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 2: just have I mean, I think that he'll be the

34
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 2: starter for the rest of the year. Even might throw

35
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,759
Speaker 2: for one hundred and fifty yards and throw three interceptions

36
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 2: in this game.

37
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 3: He might get sack six times.

38
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Mike get sacked eight or nine times.

39
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:53,919
Speaker 3: I'm just telling you. I mean, the wire is awful.

40
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 3: If you're in this quarter at conundrum, which I bet

41
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 3: some people are with Byes as well, it's bad.

42
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 2: I mean, you could always go to like pick up

43
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 2: the Rams starter this week, or you pick up the

44
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 2: Vikings starter this week, and oh.

45
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 3: No, that's not a plan.

46
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 2: Well, I would pick who's starting for the Vikings this week.

47
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 2: It's a Hall, the dude from Jaron Hall. They've got

48
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 2: decent weapons. Yes, they're well coached, and they can't run

49
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 2: the football.

50
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,640
Speaker 3: At least you can wait till Sunday. Maybe Stafford's Stafford.

51
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 2: There's a saw there's a kind of a chance that

52
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 2: he's great. But but I would start Jaron Hall.

53
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 3: I mean, you could get him Sunday morning.

54
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 2: And say, Okay, they're gonna throw a bunch of wide

55
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,080
Speaker 2: receiver screens. They're going to get the ball at the

56
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 2: Hawkinson he.

57
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:40,840
Speaker 3: Runs a little too. Yeah, it's not that I don't

58
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 3: even know who they play. It doesn't matter.

59
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter. They They've got a week to worry it,

60
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:45,959
Speaker 2: to think about this and how they're going to set

61
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 2: things up again.

62
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 3: That's deep. Isn't the end the Levis stuff.

63
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,360
Speaker 2: That happened this past week. Remember they're coming off of

64
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 2: a bye week, so they had two four weeks to

65
00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 2: get getting him ready for this.

66
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 3: First start, for him to have six Fantasy points.

67
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:01,919
Speaker 2: They don't have that kind of time this week.

68
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 3: No, And they're gonna hand it to Henry eight thousand times.

69
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 3: And do we think the Steelers are going to go

70
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:12,959
Speaker 3: up thirty to nothing and make them throw no, yeah, yeah,

71
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 3: I hear you.

72
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 2: So anyways, wait for wire options this week. Kyler Murray

73
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 2: twenty three percent rostered.

74
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 3: Still I think you have to he should be in

75
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 3: every lead.

76
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 2: This is from Rodoballer, So I don't even know what

77
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 2: you know what, but if he doesn't start this week,

78
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 2: you officially work he's.

79
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 3: Gonna start start to I think I think he's slim flan.

80
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 2: They don't trade Josh Dobbs like I think this would

81
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 2: be a this is his third week, Like you're not

82
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 2: going to activate him and then not start him.

83
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 3: Has that ever happened in this new rule where they

84
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 3: just let the window just close?

85
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 2: Yeah? Because of it? Well, what happens then is the

86
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 2: player has to revert back. He goes on I R

87
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 2: the rest of the year.

88
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 3: I know, but I mean it happens. I mean I

89
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 3: can't remember even an instance of that, let alone a starting.

90
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 2: Quarters it's happening. But to a starting quarterback. Yeah, you

91
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 2: don't activate the clock on him until you're sure that okay,

92
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 2: he's he needs a couple of weeks here to ramp up.

93
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 3: He probably needs a week. You know that if it

94
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 3: was a playoff game, would he have played last week,

95
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 3: you know what I mean? Probably, Yeah, that's what I mean. Yeah,

96
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:11,839
Speaker 3: we'll never know, because we'll never know. The Cardinals don't

97
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:13,119
Speaker 3: think we play CEMA.

98
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:19,239
Speaker 2: But right, okay, uh, Sam Howe thirty eight percent rostered.

99
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 3: I think he's considering the state of quarterbacks in the

100
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 3: league right now. I think he's maybe a top twelve guy.

101
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 2: Baker Mayfield's rushed in twenty nine percent of leagues.

102
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:32,839
Speaker 3: I guess.

103
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,839
Speaker 2: Derek Carr is rushed in twenty five percent of leagues.

104
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 3: I guess, I like, how better than those guys.

105
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, Josh Dobbs is in fifteen percent, but he's not

106
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 2: going to start this week.

107
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I maybe not dump him, but he's

108
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 3: he's not a good fantasy producer on his best day.

109
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 2: Gardner Minshew's rushed in eight percent of leagues.

110
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:52,599
Speaker 3: They run a ton of plays.

111
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:55,120
Speaker 2: It's a lot of the running backs though, Oh they've

112
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 2: made both. Both of those running backs are fantasy vile.

113
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, but so is Pittman and Downs. Yeah, I mean,

114
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 3: like it's not a bad offense.

115
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,360
Speaker 2: Jimmy Garoppolo is rushed in sixteen percent of league. Yuck.

116
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:09,599
Speaker 3: The Mayfield I don't. I just like watching Jimmy play.

117
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,720
Speaker 2: So Desmond Ritter is going to start this week again,

118
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 2: does he make it out of the first half before

119
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 2: they go.

120
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,120
Speaker 3: To I think he's got it as good as as

121
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:18,600
Speaker 3: anyone to get pulled like you could.

122
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 2: You can might be able to pick up Heinekey this

123
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,559
Speaker 2: week and actually start him next week. No, this week,

124
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 2: because he's gonna play, because Desmond Ritter is not good.

125
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,840
Speaker 3: He's horrible. I'm with you. I would you mean, I

126
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 3: don't you can't play in Atlanta quarterback this week?

127
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:38,160
Speaker 2: No, you can't. Running back way for wire options. Rushawn

128
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 2: Johnson is rostered in fifty two percent of leagues. He

129
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 2: has yet to reach double digit touches in a single

130
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 2: game this year.

131
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,920
Speaker 3: And I wonder Fields is going to be back and

132
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 3: are their running backs worth it? And Herbert's gonna be

133
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 3: back soon? Yeah, I mean he was on IR and

134
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 3: he's got one more week. He's got one more I mean,

135
00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 3: I have Johnson in both of my leagues, but I'm

136
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 3: i of any anticipation of stuff. I could cut him

137
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 3: and not lose a bit of sleepover.

138
00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:09,360
Speaker 2: They had twenty six running back carries last week. Deontay

139
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,719
Speaker 2: Foreman had fifteen of them, and then the other two

140
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 2: guys split the remaining thirteen.

141
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 3: I'm probably I say, I do like Johnson more than Foreman,

142
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:23,719
Speaker 3: but recent history doesn't show that's tough. Run's tough, and

143
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 3: he's been around the block and he knows how to

144
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:26,160
Speaker 3: the yardage in this league.

145
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 2: Jordan Mason is rostered in four percent of leagues. Well,

146
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,920
Speaker 2: they're going to buy this week, so that makes Yeah.

147
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 3: I mean, you're just wondering if McCaffrey gets hurt.

148
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 2: Type Kareem Hunt is at thirty five percent rostered.

149
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,280
Speaker 3: I had have a hard time Hitt't that I can't buy.

150
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:47,040
Speaker 2: I can't. Yeah, I can't check that one on. Jerome

151
00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:48,239
Speaker 2: Ford might play this week.

152
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:49,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, I can't.

153
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 2: I can't go there. This is not a good week.

154
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:52,680
Speaker 3: No, it's an awful week.

155
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,719
Speaker 2: Latavious Murray fourteen percent roster. Well they just they just

156
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 2: signed to the practice squad. But they just signed Leonard Fournette.

157
00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 3: I thought I was smart picking Murray two weeks ago,

158
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,160
Speaker 3: and I'm going to cut him for a quarterback this week.

159
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:04,160
Speaker 3: You know, ty J.

160
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,600
Speaker 2: Spears is still only rostered in forty eight percent.

161
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 3: I would grab him. Yeah, I mean I think a lot.

162
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 2: Of Henry's not going anywhere now, but there's still fifty

163
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 2: to fifty split more or less. This past week it

164
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 2: wasn't no.

165
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 3: But he's dynamic, and he's young and has some pedigree,

166
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 3: and he's a Henry. He's a handcuff though. I mean,

167
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 3: if Henry gets hurt, Spears is a starter. Just those

168
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 3: guys aren't.

169
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 2: Just as Hill's rostered in forty two percent of leagues,

170
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 2: they didn't make a trade for a running back.

171
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I hate the raven running backs. I hear you

172
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 3: week after week.

173
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 2: I hear after year this is what's out there, though,

174
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 2: this is it.

175
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,480
Speaker 3: If you had Gus Edwards, I would trade him right now.

176
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 2: Oh, I'd move him in a heart yeah yeah, yeah.

177
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 3: But Hill's never going to be a full time play.

178
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:48,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, his stock is not going to be any higher.

179
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 3: It never changes. It's always should I add him or not?

180
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 3: And I'll never start him, and he clogs my roster.

181
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 2: You know, at wide receiver. We've talked about this guy

182
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 2: the last couple of weeks for she Rice has rostered

183
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 2: in forty five percent.

184
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 3: How he should be in every league, every league. Yeah, yeah,

185
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 3: he's getting better.

186
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 2: Josh downs thirty three percent league. Should be in every league.

187
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, Joush Downs is a wider set three.

188
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, Curtis Samuel roster in thirty four percent of leagues.

189
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 3: Okay, I mean I don't love starting him, but yeah,

190
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 3: I mean yeah.

191
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 2: One, Del Robinson is seventeen percent of leagues. I don't

192
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 2: want anything to do with that. Giants passing game.

193
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:23,800
Speaker 3: It looks like Jones has taking over again. I don't

194
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:24,840
Speaker 3: know that any of that matters.

195
00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:27,000
Speaker 2: This one's interesting. We need to talk about this guy,

196
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:32,439
Speaker 2: Quintin Johnston. Yeah, Palmer's all kinds of banged up right now. Yeah,

197
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:36,559
Speaker 2: Williams out, and Johnston is starting to work his.

198
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 3: Way into really slow.

199
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 2: It's been slow, but it's he's you know, they threw

200
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:42,240
Speaker 2: him the ball a couple of times last week and

201
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 2: he looked like I think.

202
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,840
Speaker 3: He's starting to get the feel of the game. And yeah,

203
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:49,559
Speaker 3: I mentioned before, I deep down think he was drafted

204
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 3: for next year. Yeah, because Williams and Allen are massive,

205
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 3: insane cap hits and you know, paying Herbert. But he's

206
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 3: a run after the catch guy. He is not a

207
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 3: jump ball player at all, despite his side and I

208
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:07,199
Speaker 3: think slowly, who's the coordinator again? Call Moore starting to

209
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 3: figure out how to use Johnston because they have to.

210
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 2: Yeah right, Yeah, if Zay Jones has been released, he's

211
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:14,840
Speaker 2: on in thirty percent.

212
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,080
Speaker 3: Believer. I know you like him more than I do,

213
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,120
Speaker 3: but I mean he's fifth in the pecking order.

214
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:23,480
Speaker 2: There is he because he's only played three games this

215
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 2: year and he's got eighteen eighteen targets in three games.

216
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 3: Because things are going well. I don't know why you'd

217
00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,839
Speaker 3: rock the boat if they're them at and anger.

218
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 2: I just like he should he should be in leagues.

219
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 2: He should not be Yeah, he should not be out

220
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:41,200
Speaker 2: of seventy especially Yeah, yeah, yeah, could there like Cauldus,

221
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,439
Speaker 2: I'd rather have Kim than Cadarius Tony Are you kidding me? Yeah?

222
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 3: I mean Tony could put two good games together and

223
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,600
Speaker 3: I still wouldn't start him. No, I mean he's gonna

224
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:50,280
Speaker 3: have a zero.

225
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean would you rather have him or Jonathan Mingo?

226
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 3: I think Mingo's role was primed to grow and then

227
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 3: you might be a year a week early grabbing him.

228
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 3: But Jones, Yeah, I mean I think Mingo's kind of

229
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 3: an interesting guy. He's a and I never do that.

230
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 3: You know that in your software you can put a

231
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 3: watch list like Mingo is a perfect watch list. Yeah,

232
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 3: keep an eye on the dude.

233
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:16,560
Speaker 2: About Donovan People's jones. Now that he's gone to Detroit.

234
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,400
Speaker 2: What's that do for Jamison Williams. Forget about it. It's

235
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:20,320
Speaker 2: not happening this year.

236
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:24,960
Speaker 3: No, it might not ever happen. I guess he is

237
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:26,560
Speaker 3: the Williams Reynolds.

238
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 2: He's in that same yeah watch list. Yeah, they're gonna

239
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:34,440
Speaker 2: buy this week, so you don't need to do anything

240
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 2: with it, which is great. But if you have him

241
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 2: on you, if you well, I don't know why you'd

242
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,079
Speaker 2: still be rostering him. But if you are, I think

243
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,720
Speaker 2: his value just went up. He's in a much better offense.

244
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, it went up. I mean somebody wants them.

245
00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:47,520
Speaker 3: He loves them, you know.

246
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:51,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, tight end. Michael Mayer rostered in five percent

247
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 2: of leagues.

248
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 3: He's better than that.

249
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, should be, should be.

250
00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:58,080
Speaker 3: I don't look McBride's on that list. I'd rather McBride.

251
00:10:58,160 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 2: McBride's definitely.

252
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,679
Speaker 3: He's a no brainer. Like, if you're in one of

253
00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:05,439
Speaker 3: those leagues where it's not a fab one, he should

254
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 3: probably be your first waiver wire pick up.

255
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 2: Of all these guys, Dalton king CAD's rostered in fifty

256
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:12,439
Speaker 2: percent leagues. Oh yeah, Dalton Schultz is fifty percent.

257
00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:14,839
Speaker 3: I think in Caid's like tight end six. If I

258
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:15,560
Speaker 3: drafted right.

259
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 2: Now, Trey McBride's only roster. Who what leagues are these rostered?

260
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 4: In?

261
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 2: One percent of leagues?

262
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean he'll be He should be in eighty

263
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:24,440
Speaker 3: this time next year or next week.

264
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 2: I agree, that's nuts.

265
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,840
Speaker 3: He's had good usage the last couple of weeks. Uh.

266
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:34,199
Speaker 2: Looking at this week's schedule again, we got multiple teams

267
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:37,080
Speaker 2: on the buy. That would be the Broncos. Nobody really

268
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 2: cares about that one. Yeah, but the Lions, that Jaguars

269
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,840
Speaker 2: and forty nine Ers are extremely fantasy relevant.

270
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:44,199
Speaker 3: There's a lot of dudes there. Yeah.

271
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 2: Uh so if we're going to stream some defenses. You

272
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 2: got the Titans at the Steelers.

273
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 3: Yes, and yes, I don't love the Titans, but I

274
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 3: mean Steelers don't put up a lot of points. You've

275
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 3: got the You're starting Steelers? Deal with Titans?

276
00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:58,080
Speaker 2: D right?

277
00:11:58,160 --> 00:11:59,080
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah?

278
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 2: You got the Dolphins at the Chiefs. Are you starting

279
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 2: the Chiefs defense has been good this year?

280
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:05,400
Speaker 3: Neither.

281
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 2: I'm not starting them against the Dolphins either.

282
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:11,439
Speaker 3: Nuts. Overseas Germany, weird stuff happens.

283
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 2: Miami's going over early, Kansas City's going over.

284
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:14,040
Speaker 3: The Miami's there.

285
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:15,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, Miami's aready, they've been there.

286
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think they're going.

287
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:18,319
Speaker 2: The Chiefs are going Thursday.

288
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:19,280
Speaker 3: It seems so late.

289
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 2: Uh. You got the Vikings at the Falcons.

290
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 3: N get Haul versus Ritter and Heineke. That could be both,

291
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,199
Speaker 3: but neither of these good. The good Jarret's out for

292
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 3: the year.

293
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 2: Now we know the Vikings. The Vikings gonna blitz like crazy.

294
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,439
Speaker 3: They can make big plays. Yeah, I mean Rider is

295
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 3: going to fumble five times. I'm not excited about it,

296
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:50,839
Speaker 3: But I see you the line of thinking, like.

297
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 2: I don't think that's you start those I don't think

298
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:54,440
Speaker 2: that's going to be a high scoring game. Is that

299
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:56,400
Speaker 2: the Falcons the play it that way?

300
00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 3: They're sure a lot of chances for mistakes.

301
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 2: Yes, Yes, that's where I'm going.

302
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:05,720
Speaker 3: Would you start those two defenses over the Chiefs? D Yes, Okay,

303
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 3: I think I would too, But that's a funny question

304
00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:08,959
Speaker 3: to ask.

305
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 2: Uh, you got the five and two Seahawks at the

306
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 2: six and two Ravens. The Ravens are typically okay, they're.

307
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 3: The number one defense.

308
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 2: They don't get sacks, they don't get a ton of turnovers,

309
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:23,320
Speaker 2: but they don't give up a ton of yards.

310
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,199
Speaker 3: No, And that's a tough place to play.

311
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 2: It's a tough place to play. But the Seahawks. The

312
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 2: Seahawks offense is good. It's good and balanced.

313
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:34,840
Speaker 3: But like I would never have started. I mean, I'm

314
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 3: just gun shy because I saw Detroit go in there,

315
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 3: NFC team versus Lamar two weeks ago. Could that look

316
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 3: exactly the same going in there? I guess you start

317
00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 3: the Ravens D, but you don't love it.

318
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 2: You don't love it.

319
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:51,080
Speaker 3: You're not starting Seattle D. Right. No, they just signed

320
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 3: there's trade for Leonard Wood.

321
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:53,800
Speaker 2: Does he play this week?

322
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 3: Yeah? I don't never think he plays. Twenty snabs.

323
00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:58,880
Speaker 2: You got the one and seven Cardinals at the four

324
00:13:58,880 --> 00:13:59,720
Speaker 2: and three Browns.

325
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 3: Browns might be number one, but who's starting.

326
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 2: A quarterback for the Cardinals If it's Clayton Tuone? Firing

327
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:06,760
Speaker 2: up either.

328
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 3: Way, I'm firing up, okay. I mean Kyler hasn't played

329
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 3: in forever and their teams are really good.

330
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 2: Yeah. You got the three and five Rams at the

331
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 2: two and five. Packers. Might not be Matthew Stafford this week,

332
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,600
Speaker 2: but the Packers defense has been so bad.

333
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 3: I don't start either. No, Karen Williams, if Stafford plays,

334
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:26,120
Speaker 3: he might light those guys up.

335
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:30,000
Speaker 2: If Stafford doesn't play.

336
00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 3: There might not be any points. There might be a Viking.

337
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 2: That might be a ten to nothing game.

338
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, that might be Vikings Falcon conversation. One of those

339
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 3: defense is gonna be dirt cheap.

340
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 2: Yeah. On Thursday, you got the Buccaneers at the Texans.

341
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 3: Same like, I don't love either, but the matchups are

342
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 3: pretty good, they are.

343
00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, You've got the Commanders at the Patriots. You're starting

344
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 2: to Patriots defense this week.

345
00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 3: I'm not sorting of the commander Patriot. I loved starts

346
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,760
Speaker 3: off guys against Patriots, but I don't think you start

347
00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 3: Washington's Who's traded their two best dudes? They're two of

348
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 3: their best four dudes. These matchups are horrible, horrible, awful

349
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 3: match Right. You got the Bears at the Saints. Well,

350
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 3: the Saints are gonna be great.

351
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's fantastic, Trockey, and one of they might be

352
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 2: the number one start this week, right, Okay, Tyson Badging, Yeah,

353
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:24,240
Speaker 2: t Bagger. You've got the Colts at the Panthers. Colts

354
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 2: Colts defense should be a good start this weeks. Yeah,

355
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 2: I can't start to Panthers even though they shut down

356
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 2: Houston last year.

357
00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:33,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's see it again.

358
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 2: Uh, you get the Giants at the Raiders. Are you

359
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:40,720
Speaker 2: starting the team the Raiders defense this week? Can you

360
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:45,080
Speaker 2: start them? It's Daniel Jones again. Daniel Jones might get

361
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 2: sexed twenty seven times in this game.

362
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:51,200
Speaker 3: Barkley is gonna get the ball a million times.

363
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 2: Barkley might run for one hundred and seventy yards in

364
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 2: this game.

365
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe, and they might get the seventeen points if

366
00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 3: he does, there still could be one hundred you know,

367
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 3: hunting that game.

368
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,760
Speaker 2: Here's the other problem, though, there's so many problems because

369
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:07,280
Speaker 2: the last two games of the day here Cowboys at Eagles.

370
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:08,800
Speaker 3: Let's say there's some really good games too.

371
00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 2: And then Bills at Bengals. Can you start any of

372
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 2: those four defenses against each other?

373
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 3: Nope, there's like five ftal defenses this week. It's harder

374
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:17,120
Speaker 3: than quarterback.

375
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 2: It goes back to our conversation about where's the defense?

376
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 2: Where are the good defenses at?

377
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,640
Speaker 3: And the matchups are just ro off awful? Who's the

378
00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 3: Monday nighter Chargers at Jets? Both? I mean if we

379
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 3: had to. I mean, this would be a horrible I

380
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,760
Speaker 3: don't want to start the Jets defense against the Chargers,

381
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:39,040
Speaker 3: and I don't want to the Chargers don't give up sacks.

382
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 3: They it's just I don't I don't start Chargers against anybody.

383
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 2: No, they're terrible. They're terrible even against the Jets.

384
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 3: This would be the worst homework ever. Rank the top

385
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 3: twelve defenses this week this week, it'd be horrible. I

386
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 3: think we just feel like, pay for the Saints and

387
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 3: hope they're not you pay for the Saints. I mean

388
00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,640
Speaker 3: there was one or two that were like, pretty the Browns.

389
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 2: You're going to start the Ravens, Yeah, just because coming

390
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 2: up at twelve is really hard. I think the Steelers

391
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:08,280
Speaker 2: are a good, solid start this week at home.

392
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:12,040
Speaker 3: They're definitely in the top twelve without a doubt. Ye fourth,

393
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:14,880
Speaker 3: But I don't want to start.

394
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:16,960
Speaker 2: I don't want to start the Chiefs against the Dolphins. No,

395
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,119
Speaker 2: I would. I don't want to start the Dolphins defense period.

396
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:20,960
Speaker 2: And I don't want to tell the Bengal I don't

397
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:23,120
Speaker 2: want touch Cowboys, Eagles, Bills, Bengals.

398
00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:25,680
Speaker 3: Right, the six good ones out of the bat and

399
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 3: Niners run a bye and so there's nothing. Jags are

400
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:32,560
Speaker 3: a decent D. They're on a bye that's awful.

401
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:34,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then some of the ones that have the

402
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,760
Speaker 2: quality matchups that you want to start people are the terrible.

403
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:40,600
Speaker 2: I don't want to play the Raiders do the Raiders defense.

404
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 3: Let's keep an eye on the Colts though they may

405
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 3: not be I mean for dfs like they're gonna be

406
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 3: cheaper in the Saints and the Browns.

407
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 2: The only problem is they're on the road.

408
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:54,239
Speaker 3: No, there's so many problems. Yeah, there's only like one

409
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,679
Speaker 3: or two good things. I mean, it's problems galore.

410
00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:59,640
Speaker 2: The Patriots defense as bad as it's not been great

411
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:03,959
Speaker 2: this year for fantasy, but they'll get sacks against the Commanders.

412
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 3: Yes. Would you rather sort the Commanders, do you? Or

413
00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 3: the Patriots?

414
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:10,719
Speaker 2: The Patriots, especially now if the Commanders don't have their

415
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 2: they don't have any heedge rush.

416
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,800
Speaker 3: Any play sure rush yet I wish the Patriots D

417
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 3: was playing the Patriot Oh, that would be good, right, yeah,

418
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:19,560
Speaker 3: because Washington did a number on the Eagles.

419
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:21,600
Speaker 2: What about the Texans against the Buccaneers.

420
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,640
Speaker 3: I was thinking about that too. They're both that's kind

421
00:18:23,640 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 3: of sneaky that they're probably like eight to ninth on

422
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:30,359
Speaker 3: the list this week, which if they're dirt cheap, yeah,

423
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:32,639
Speaker 3: I mean, do we think that game's gonna be fifty

424
00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:33,080
Speaker 3: to forty?

425
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:33,440
Speaker 2: No?

426
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no no.

427
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:39,440
Speaker 2: And that Texas defense, Yeah, Texans defense isn't bad. They're

428
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:44,120
Speaker 2: at home bad, which better they're coming off? Probably? Yes,

429
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 2: I'll take the home team in that kind of situation.

430
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:47,960
Speaker 2: I know Tampa Bay's not going to run the ball

431
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,720
Speaker 2: at all. No, they can't. So, but you can tell

432
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:52,359
Speaker 2: Baker you're gonna go out and throw it thirty five

433
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:55,080
Speaker 2: to forty times. Probably he's gonna get sacked a few times.

434
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:55,720
Speaker 2: He's gonna throw a.

435
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 3: Couple of receptions. Yet, Yeah, and Evans will have a

436
00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:01,119
Speaker 3: big player too, and you know they'll they'll move the ball.

437
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 2: What I would probably be some tie breakers with some

438
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 2: of this stuff. I'd have to start looking at the

439
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:07,679
Speaker 2: special teams aspect of it.

440
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,240
Speaker 3: Maybe that's really digging deep. I mean Tennessee, because you

441
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,680
Speaker 3: have to dig deep in this one. Tennessee's the top ten.

442
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 2: Are they.

443
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:17,880
Speaker 3: Matchups good?

444
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 2: I guess.

445
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know. There'll be a lot of sacks.

446
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 3: You would hope they.

447
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 2: Pickett hasn't turned Pickett hasn't turned the ball over.

448
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:27,399
Speaker 3: We think it'll probably be Kenny, which is good for

449
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:29,439
Speaker 3: the Steelers, bad for the Titans. I think.

450
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:32,639
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't mind the Vikings defense either against

451
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 2: the Falcons, I just don't.

452
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:37,200
Speaker 3: Bijon might rip them up, but that still only gets

453
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:38,119
Speaker 3: you like twenty points.

454
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not going to like are they going to

455
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:41,359
Speaker 2: give them the ball enough to rip it up?

456
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:42,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the other question.

457
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:44,200
Speaker 2: You're gonna get twelve carries this week?

458
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:47,160
Speaker 3: Again, you would hope, considering what they're doing a quarterback,

459
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,720
Speaker 3: they would look at the eighth overall pick and be like,

460
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 3: why don't we just give it to him the ball

461
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:51,640
Speaker 3: thirty times?

462
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:53,040
Speaker 2: You would think that they would have done that the

463
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:55,480
Speaker 2: past two years when they spent top ten picks on

464
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 2: pass catchers and then didn't throw the football, or even.

465
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,840
Speaker 3: This past week. They you're benching quarterback and you got

466
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 3: the stud running back and you still don't you only

467
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,280
Speaker 3: guys like fifteen touches. Yeah, what are you doing? I mean,

468
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:10,040
Speaker 3: the week before you get a headache. This this schedule

469
00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 3: is ache.

470
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:13,280
Speaker 2: This schedule is a headache. There's some really.

471
00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 3: Fun games for the fans, but there's some weird matchup.

472
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,439
Speaker 2: I'm going to enjoy watching these because we have a

473
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:20,639
Speaker 2: Thursday night game. Yeah, yeah, I don't know that.

474
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:22,520
Speaker 3: I don't the stuff that will be like the Network game.

475
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 2: I guess I'll guess I'll get up at nine thirty

476
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:25,920
Speaker 2: to watch Dolphins Chiefs.

477
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:27,440
Speaker 3: Oh, that's a great one.

478
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,000
Speaker 2: I'll probably want to watch Seahawks Ravens one.

479
00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:32,479
Speaker 3: That's a good game. Yeah, that's a real good game.

480
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:35,399
Speaker 2: I want to watch that one. The four o'clock games,

481
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:38,640
Speaker 2: I guess. I guess I'll watch Cowboys Eagles.

482
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:39,720
Speaker 3: Oh, that's a great game.

483
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:41,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then Bill. Okay, so I get to schedule

484
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,960
Speaker 2: a great SATs schedules and then watch Bill's Bengals at night.

485
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 2: So there's the skey. That's what that's what they'll schedule

486
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:50,480
Speaker 2: look like on Sunday. They've made it. They've made it

487
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,680
Speaker 2: pretty easy. Yeah, because I don't want to see any

488
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:54,800
Speaker 2: of these other games, not one of them.

489
00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:57,920
Speaker 3: I'll be doing that with red Zone on another yeah, another.

490
00:20:57,960 --> 00:20:59,520
Speaker 2: I don't even have to watch red Zone this week.

491
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 3: I just watch those games are going to be worth

492
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 3: their zone.

493
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 2: I don't need to watch anything. I don't want to.

494
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 2: I don't want to see the Saints destroying the Bears.

495
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 3: I don't watch Tyler Badgin and those guys. Don't want

496
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:09,240
Speaker 3: to want bad quarterbacks.

497
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 2: I don't want to watch the Colts beating the crap

498
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:14,480
Speaker 2: out of out of Yeah, the Panthers.

499
00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:16,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean Jonathan Taylor. I mean we'll talk about

500
00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:18,840
Speaker 3: matchups and stuff. There's some good fantasy matchups or running

501
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:23,640
Speaker 3: backs and stuff, but these defenses. Yeah, yeah, that's that's awful. Wow,

502
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,400
Speaker 3: that's the worst exercise we've done on Tuesday.

503
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,920
Speaker 2: Anyways, we gotta get to a break. He is Matt Williamson.

Speaker 2: An't many of those out there?

522
00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:29,400
Speaker 3: No? Right? I bet there's a little shortage of those.

523
00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:33,520
Speaker 2: The uh question for today?

524
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 3: Which there you go?

525
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:38,720
Speaker 2: Here you go, Matt, get.

526
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 3: All nervous like I'm in college taking this tough one.

527
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 3: Didn't study for it all?

528
00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:45,320
Speaker 2: Earl Holmes or James Ferrier. The most tackles in the

529
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:47,400
Speaker 2: game against the Tennessee Titans, no.

530
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:50,600
Speaker 3: Clue the most tackles.

531
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:52,720
Speaker 2: The way you've answered some of these questions over the

532
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:54,640
Speaker 2: last few weeks, you would have no clue about any

533
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 2: of that.

534
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:58,400
Speaker 3: I haven't. I've at least had some logic behind flawed

535
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:02,320
Speaker 3: logic apparently, but I've chosen wrong. I think often this one.

536
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:04,239
Speaker 3: I don't have any clue, but I can't tell you,

537
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:07,160
Speaker 3: like who was a Steeler all time tackle? Guys?

538
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:10,680
Speaker 2: Think about it this way? Who would have been an

539
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:14,199
Speaker 2: inside linebacker for the Steelers in more games where the

540
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 2: Steelers may have lost to the Titans.

541
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,520
Speaker 3: See, I was thinking like the when they'd be the

542
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:22,399
Speaker 3: run heaviest because they'd run a lot of plays. I mean,

543
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:25,280
Speaker 3: like the Eddie George years. But that's kind of who

544
00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:26,720
Speaker 3: the Titans have been forever. Anyways.

545
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:30,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, when did they beat the Steelers on a regular basis?

546
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,880
Speaker 2: More with Earl Holmes, more with James Ferrier Holmes.

547
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:35,399
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, I mean that's a good.

548
00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:37,399
Speaker 2: Way looking at that would be your logic on them.

549
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:39,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, the Farrier teams were better. Yeah, but the

550
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,479
Speaker 3: defenses were better. But you probably don't gism not all

551
00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:43,159
Speaker 3: of them, not all.

552
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 2: Okay, we got to go move on here to Eric

553
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:51,520
Speaker 2: ed Holmes Power Rankings series on NFL dotting Tuesday. Remember

554
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,600
Speaker 2: we had what four one win teams win last week.

555
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:57,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, and there's still so many hideous teams, but yeah,

556
00:23:58,200 --> 00:23:58,920
Speaker 3: some of them did win.

557
00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:01,200
Speaker 2: Like, there were some teams that were at the bottom

558
00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:02,639
Speaker 2: of the power I.

559
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:05,560
Speaker 3: Think Denver was thirty one or thirty two, and they

560
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,159
Speaker 3: beat the Chiefs who were won. It's not going to

561
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:08,720
Speaker 3: be easy either.

562
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:10,440
Speaker 2: No, the top is not going to be right because

563
00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:13,639
Speaker 2: some of those teams lost at thirty two, down a

564
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,359
Speaker 2: spot this week, the Arizona Cardinals.

565
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 3: Yes, but if we knew Kyler was playing. Are they

566
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:23,160
Speaker 3: better than these next five teams?

567
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 2: I don't know. Look what version of Kyler Murray are

568
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:27,399
Speaker 2: we getting now?

569
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,960
Speaker 3: I mean, I just think that's subject to maybe go up.

570
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,160
Speaker 3: I've been saying they've been trending down for a long time,

571
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 3: but I'm curious. I mean, he's a good player.

572
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 2: At thirty one up a spot. The Carolina Panthers.

573
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:43,120
Speaker 3: Fine, I wouldn't reward him too much.

574
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 2: They won last They win at thirty holding steady. This

575
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,800
Speaker 2: would be my These guys are the worst team in

576
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:50,120
Speaker 2: the league.

577
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:53,760
Speaker 3: Giants, the Giants. They can't that game, they can't execute off.

578
00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 2: That game last week was hideous.

579
00:24:55,320 --> 00:24:58,480
Speaker 3: They've had hideous three or four embarrassing games.

580
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just flat out don't even look like an

581
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:02,200
Speaker 2: NFL team exactly.

582
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, that that is self.

583
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 2: They I don't care if they have two wins. They

584
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:07,119
Speaker 2: are the worst team in the league.

585
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,840
Speaker 3: Arizona would have killed the Giants last week. Yeah, yeah,

586
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 3: I mean that's not bad. And they got Danny DeVito's

587
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 3: brother playing quarterback, dude. Yeah yeah, they're last.

588
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:19,919
Speaker 2: At twenty nine at two and six holding steady. The

589
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,440
Speaker 2: Chicago Bears, Yeah, they were really bad.

590
00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 3: Giants.

591
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,320
Speaker 2: The Giants right now, we're killed for Tyler Badget and

592
00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 2: he's not any good I guess.

593
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:30,520
Speaker 3: I mean, Dani Jones is back, but I know what

594
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,200
Speaker 3: you're saying. Yeah, like they didn't even let the veto

595
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:33,320
Speaker 3: throw the ball to.

596
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 2: Vito's not a prospect.

597
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 3: Divito's not a prospect. Yeah, Badget wasn't drafted.

598
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 2: But at least he was at the senior ball. He

599
00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,000
Speaker 2: was on he was on people's radars to be you know,

600
00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:50,360
Speaker 2: potentially he's Yeah, I don't know. The Vito's and the.

601
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:52,760
Speaker 3: Beast and they go eighty deep at quarterbacks and.

602
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 2: De Vito spent like nineteen years in college. Really okay, Yeah,

603
00:25:56,800 --> 00:26:00,639
Speaker 2: he was just not good at twenty eight holding steady

604
00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 2: the Patriots.

605
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 3: Okay, they're definitely the best team of that group though

606
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:05,960
Speaker 3: that we've mentioned.

607
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:07,880
Speaker 2: I'd say that's not saying a lot.

608
00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 3: No, there's some really bad team.

609
00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:14,399
Speaker 2: At twenty seven down two spots, the Washington Commanders, and

610
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 2: they got worse today, and they got worse today.

611
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, they played the Eagles tough.

612
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:21,680
Speaker 2: It's the division game. I don't know that they'll play

613
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 2: anybody tough the rest of the year with them. I mean,

614
00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:24,880
Speaker 2: you just took away they're two edge rushers.

615
00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:26,399
Speaker 3: I mean, it can't be good for morale.

616
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,840
Speaker 2: They already can't stop anybody from throwing the ball, and

617
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:31,320
Speaker 2: now you've taken away their pass rush.

618
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 3: They finally didn't get sacked last week, but they will.

619
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:34,880
Speaker 2: They will.

620
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 3: Yeah. At twenty six, down two spots, the Raiders. Raiders

621
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:42,000
Speaker 3: versus Patriots to me is a conversation.

622
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:44,840
Speaker 2: Well we just saw that a couple of weeks ago.

623
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 3: Yeah. No, I think I know the Raiders below those

624
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:50,480
Speaker 3: last teams, but they're all the same.

625
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:56,240
Speaker 2: At twenty five down two spots, the Green Bay Packers,

626
00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 2: it might be kind. They're pretty bad.

627
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:02,440
Speaker 3: I mean, their offense is close to unwatchable too. Yeah,

628
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:04,960
Speaker 3: I mean, and their defense just underperformed.

629
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 2: Oh you got first round draft picks all over that

630
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 2: defense and they stink.

631
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 3: Could the floor be on the hot seat? He's won

632
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 3: a lot of games.

633
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 2: He's won a lot of games. Haven't done anything with

634
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:15,320
Speaker 2: all those wins.

635
00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:18,200
Speaker 3: No, but thirteen wins in a row for like three weeks.

636
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:22,240
Speaker 2: I get it. He probably he probably gets another year.

637
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 3: But give him a different quarterback and see where it goes.

638
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:26,920
Speaker 2: Or he hadn't picked this one.

639
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:28,280
Speaker 3: Yeah. Uh.

640
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 2: At twenty four, up three spots the Denver Broncos.

641
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:34,520
Speaker 3: Okay, I mean like they ran the ball. I mean

642
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 3: the Chiefs turn Chiefs turn them all over five to

643
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 3: Patrick Mahomes had the flu and he was on his

644
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:41,520
Speaker 3: death bed, and they turned them all over five times.

645
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 3: The Chiefs lost that game. Denver didn't win it. Yeah,

646
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:46,040
Speaker 3: but they beat the Chiefs.

647
00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:50,040
Speaker 2: At twenty three, down two spots, the Indianapolis Colts.

648
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 3: I would say they're definitely the best team we've mentioned. Yeah,

649
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:57,879
Speaker 3: I think they could hang with good teams.

650
00:27:58,000 --> 00:27:59,680
Speaker 2: They can't beat them, but they hang. They beat the

651
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 2: raven beat the Ravens.

652
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:02,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, they could beat the Steelers in a couple of weeks.

653
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:03,960
Speaker 3: I mean they're not bad.

654
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 2: At twenty two, up four spots, the Tennessee Titans. I

655
00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:10,639
Speaker 2: can't go that high. I mean they're not a good fous.

656
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:12,960
Speaker 3: I think they lose the Colts seven out of ten times,

657
00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:13,800
Speaker 3: eight out of ten times.

658
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:14,400
Speaker 2: I do too.

659
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm I don't think Levis is next even.

660
00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:22,160
Speaker 2: There again, watching rewatching that game that was all about

661
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 2: the Falcons just handing Yeah, just the Titans a win. Yeah,

662
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:29,360
Speaker 2: losing the game at twenty one down three spots, the Rams.

663
00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:34,480
Speaker 3: They're going the wrong direction. Yeah, and if it's Stetson Bennett,

664
00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:38,240
Speaker 3: they're the wrong direction. Yeah. I wonder if they considered

665
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 3: trading cup or Donald. We kind of thought that was

666
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:44,640
Speaker 3: coming in the preseason.

667
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:46,920
Speaker 2: Yeah. Tough to move those guys, tho, because they're making

668
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:47,440
Speaker 2: a lot of money.

669
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,480
Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean, and you're in LA.

670
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:51,680
Speaker 2: You need you need the face value in LA you

671
00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:52,320
Speaker 2: get you just can't.

672
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 3: I don't think they can get to the first overall pick.

673
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:55,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think they can't either.

674
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:56,600
Speaker 3: Yeah.

675
00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 2: At twenty down three spots to Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

676
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, I might put the Colts ahead of them, but okay.

677
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 2: At nineteen up one spot the Minnesota Vikings.

678
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 3: I think, if you're honest with yourself, what the team

679
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:15,760
Speaker 3: is minus Cousins, they have to be lower. If they

680
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:17,600
Speaker 3: had Cousins, I might have them fifteen.

681
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:19,440
Speaker 2: But they're four and four, So I think that's why

682
00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:22,240
Speaker 2: he only moved them up one spot, despite I mean, them.

683
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:23,320
Speaker 3: Being on I don't think you can move them up.

684
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:24,680
Speaker 2: I know the of a winning streak.

685
00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:27,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh they look good, but now they're a quarterback,

686
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 3: they get.

687
00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:32,720
Speaker 2: Josh Tobbs, what are you talking about? Play At eighteen

688
00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:34,800
Speaker 2: up four spots the Chargers.

689
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,560
Speaker 3: Okay, they're the best team. We've mentioned the defense.

690
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:40,120
Speaker 2: Still, no, it's problem. And then once again, that's another

691
00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 2: team that has first round draft picks all over the

692
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 2: place and they don't perform that way.

693
00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:46,800
Speaker 3: Right, you know, And you're watching that game, and I'm

694
00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:49,240
Speaker 3: not giving the broadcasters a hard time, but what Bosa

695
00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 3: and Mac are playing their best games of the year,

696
00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:55,840
Speaker 3: bears in the tea bag. I mean, they don't even

697
00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:58,520
Speaker 3: trying to chase downfield. I mean, like, this isn't that hard.

698
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:00,480
Speaker 3: You would think Bosa and Mac could something in that.

699
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:01,880
Speaker 3: I would hope, come on, man.

700
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:06,040
Speaker 2: At seventeen down one spot, Atlanta, I would have bumped

701
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,440
Speaker 2: them down again. I just watched that game this morning.

702
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:10,960
Speaker 3: Are they worse in Tampa in that division?

703
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:15,160
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, they're worse than the Chargers. They're worse. They're

704
00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 2: worse in the Vikings.

705
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:20,320
Speaker 3: Vikings are hard, but yeah, they're worse than the Colts.

706
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 2: Colts, I mean, they just don't have anything to hang

707
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:23,720
Speaker 2: your hat on.

708
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:26,920
Speaker 3: No, it's bad. Grady Jared injuries, big.

709
00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah big At sixteen down one spot, Houston, I.

710
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:36,640
Speaker 3: Think the Colts are better in Houston right now. There's

711
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 3: a stretch there Houston's pretty impressive, but eh, I guess

712
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 3: I'm not going to kill him for that spot.

713
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:47,920
Speaker 2: They're okay at fifteen, down two spots the Steelers, seems right.

714
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:50,880
Speaker 2: That seems right until there's there's one team we haven't

715
00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 2: mentioned yet.

716
00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:55,320
Speaker 3: Not, well, we'll get to them. I don't know who

717
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:55,520
Speaker 3: that is.

718
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 2: Off that would be not fourteen fourteen is the Saints.

719
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:00,440
Speaker 3: Steelers and Saints the scene.

720
00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:03,680
Speaker 2: That's that's okay, I get to I'm okay.

721
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:06,120
Speaker 3: With one and one loss, so yeah, all right.

722
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:10,400
Speaker 2: That's how five spots for the Saints. At thirteen up

723
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:14,040
Speaker 2: a spot the Jets. Are you out of your mind?

724
00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:16,640
Speaker 3: I forgot about the Jets. Come on, you're going to

725
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 3: complain about the Browns being.

726
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:20,320
Speaker 2: Moved him up a spot based off of that stunning

727
00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:23,760
Speaker 2: victory over the Giants last week? No, are you kidding me?

728
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 3: Worse than the Cold they're awful. I mean the Bucks

729
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 3: are better than them.

730
00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:30,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, they should be about twenty first, twenty second.

731
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:32,840
Speaker 2: The defense is good, the offense is awful.

732
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:36,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that was it, right?

733
00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:38,640
Speaker 2: Like people who think the Steelers offense is bad and

734
00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 2: it's not been great.

735
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:40,720
Speaker 3: No, of course, go watch it.

736
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:42,480
Speaker 2: Go watch one of the New York teams.

737
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:46,240
Speaker 3: Play Giants are the worst in the league anyways. Yeah,

738
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:49,160
Speaker 3: I mean they basically battled the Giants to a draw. Yeah,

739
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:52,600
Speaker 3: and one on a gift. Yes, they run that.

740
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 2: Their center set the football on the on the final

741
00:31:56,200 --> 00:31:58,040
Speaker 2: play and then the then the official comes in and

742
00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:00,400
Speaker 2: touches it. Oh okay, maybe I'll just move it up

743
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 2: here to the thirty how about that?

744
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:05,560
Speaker 3: So that and time would have run out. We would

745
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:07,720
Speaker 3: have just put the Giants at thirty two. And they

746
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:09,360
Speaker 3: basically battled into a draw.

747
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 2: In their home stadium.

748
00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 3: So I was there's no home field a bandage, right, right, right?

749
00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know how many fans were, it

750
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,920
Speaker 3: doesn't matter travel. They probably were in their own locker room.

751
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:21,960
Speaker 3: So my son and I were watching that game, and

752
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 3: it goes to overtime, right, and I thought, for the

753
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 3: first time ever, if you win the toss, you should

754
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:31,760
Speaker 3: kick yeah, yeah, because then you hit the ball at

755
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,240
Speaker 3: midfield and all you can do is kick a field goal, right,

756
00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 3: Like you should be like, you're so bad. No, you're so.

757
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,240
Speaker 2: Bad, right, right, you call no, you call it?

758
00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like we'll just kick hit in the end zone.

759
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 3: You'll gain two yards, you'll give it right back to us.

760
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:48,560
Speaker 3: We'll move the ball three yards and get a field goal.

761
00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:51,720
Speaker 2: The Jets went to overtime to win a game against

762
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:53,920
Speaker 2: a team that had seven passing.

763
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:58,680
Speaker 3: Yards, right, and in an NFL game, smart move would

764
00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:03,800
Speaker 3: have been win the toss and seven seven seven right right,

765
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 3: note eight not nine seven. They battled them to a draw.

766
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:09,840
Speaker 3: They're not better than the Steelers. They're not better than

767
00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 3: the Colts. They seven they think yep.

768
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 2: At twelve down, two spots the Browns.

769
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:16,800
Speaker 3: Some fime with that. I would have the brown slightly

770
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:17,760
Speaker 3: over the Steelers.

771
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:21,520
Speaker 2: They people talk, you know, you would talk about a

772
00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:24,640
Speaker 2: team they have beaten. There they lost last week's game.

773
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:26,719
Speaker 2: The two games that they won the week the two

774
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:30,120
Speaker 2: weeks before that were gifts from the from officials. Like

775
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:32,680
Speaker 2: they could very easily bright now be two and six.

776
00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:34,320
Speaker 3: Like, I don't think the Browns would have done any

777
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:36,760
Speaker 3: better against the Jags than the Steelers did. No, I mean,

778
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:38,000
Speaker 3: I'm not saying that.

779
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,040
Speaker 2: They could be two and six right now if if

780
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:41,680
Speaker 2: they don't get a couple of calls.

781
00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:45,120
Speaker 3: I mean, the fact is they beat the Niners, right,

782
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 3: But I mean.

783
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:51,560
Speaker 2: If Tayshaun Gibson is not called for unnecessary roughness on

784
00:33:51,680 --> 00:33:54,240
Speaker 2: fourth down. They gave the Browns a free first down.

785
00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 2: They don't win that game.

786
00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:59,360
Speaker 3: Or the game winning walkoff kick, but they weren't so

787
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:02,080
Speaker 3: great at block kicks that the rookie couldn't make it.

788
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:04,000
Speaker 3: The didn't block that kick, That's what I mean. I

789
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:06,080
Speaker 3: mean like they got lucky with the game winning kick

790
00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:09,600
Speaker 3: didn't go through the uprights anyways. But I mean they're

791
00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:10,759
Speaker 3: a mediocre team.

792
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 2: It's all on exercise and who cares.

793
00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:15,000
Speaker 3: I mean, they're better than gets, better than the Jets.

794
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:18,920
Speaker 2: At eleven up one spot the Bengals, I.

795
00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 3: Would be having them higher. I don't care about the record,

796
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 3: it's how you're playing right now. They're better than several

797
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:26,160
Speaker 3: of the teams we haven't talked about.

798
00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:28,440
Speaker 2: At ten up one spot, Seattle.

799
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 3: I have respect for Seattle. I think they're a good team.

800
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,640
Speaker 2: At nine holding steady as Buffalo.

801
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:37,200
Speaker 3: Wow, I still might be higher on them. I mean,

802
00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:40,240
Speaker 3: the Josh Allen factors pretty scary.

803
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:45,200
Speaker 2: Yeah. Uh. At eight down five spots San Francisco.

804
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:50,279
Speaker 3: Okay, I just said I'd have Cincinnati higher. I'm not

805
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:51,959
Speaker 3: sure I could put them over these teams though.

806
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's where it gets tough.

807
00:34:54,239 --> 00:35:00,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I still have faith that San Francisco's gon to

808
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:01,040
Speaker 3: be a tough out.

809
00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:03,279
Speaker 2: I just still don't have faith in Brock Purdy. No,

810
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,799
Speaker 2: and nothing that's happened in the last few weeks is.

811
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:12,680
Speaker 3: It's still more confidence seven holding steady the Detroit Lions.

812
00:35:12,719 --> 00:35:15,000
Speaker 2: Is that too rough on the Lions? Should they be higher?

813
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:17,520
Speaker 3: One blip? Yeah, I mean it's a bad blip, but

814
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:21,120
Speaker 3: they would be higher for me, Like Lions are Jags.

815
00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:23,920
Speaker 3: It's about the saying.

816
00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:28,279
Speaker 2: Yeah at six up two spots, Dallas, see you bump

817
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:29,880
Speaker 2: Dallas ahead of Detroit.

818
00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:31,360
Speaker 3: They slaughtered the Rams.

819
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:36,439
Speaker 2: That's fine, it's the Rams, like I think. I think

820
00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:38,480
Speaker 2: if I'm looking at those both of those teams, I

821
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:39,600
Speaker 2: think I like Detroit better.

822
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:41,600
Speaker 3: Yeah.

823
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:44,400
Speaker 2: Now it might also depends on where they play at.

824
00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:46,160
Speaker 3: I mean, if they play one hundred and eleven times

825
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:48,319
Speaker 3: in which is Kansas, you would take the Lions to

826
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 3: win the series? I would, Yeah, I mean I think

827
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:52,359
Speaker 3: it would be.

828
00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:55,359
Speaker 2: I think they got better coaching. I think they've got I.

829
00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:57,239
Speaker 3: Think one of the teams will probably win fifty three

830
00:35:57,280 --> 00:35:59,640
Speaker 3: percent of the time. Yeah, maybe pretty equal. Yeah.

831
00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:01,880
Speaker 2: I had five up a spot Jacksonville.

832
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 3: They went five in a row and there's some good

833
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:04,680
Speaker 3: wins in there.

834
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:07,959
Speaker 2: So you bump the Steelers down for losing to Jacksonville,

835
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:11,000
Speaker 2: you bump you bump the Jets.

836
00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:13,759
Speaker 3: Up by the two spots for beating the worst team

837
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:17,440
Speaker 3: in football. Yeah, that's the crime here, not the other parts.

838
00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:19,680
Speaker 3: That's about where the Jackons got.

839
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:22,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I have no problem with that. At four

840
00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:24,200
Speaker 2: down three spots, Kansas City.

841
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:30,480
Speaker 3: Yeah again, twenty eight teams would trade for the Chiefs

842
00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:34,320
Speaker 3: and Niners problem. Yeah, okay, you're having some tough times.

843
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:35,800
Speaker 3: I think you'll be fine.

844
00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:37,920
Speaker 2: At three up two spots Miami.

845
00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:39,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I don't trust them.

846
00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:40,879
Speaker 2: I don't trust them at all.

847
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:43,920
Speaker 3: I don't trust their defense row line. Yeah, like they

848
00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:45,920
Speaker 3: could lose bad in Germany.

849
00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:49,800
Speaker 2: Which takes us to number two up two spots Baltimore

850
00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:51,520
Speaker 2: kind of by default.

851
00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:53,560
Speaker 3: I don't screwing.

852
00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:56,560
Speaker 2: Cincinnati to me, is a better team than Baltimore right

853
00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:57,359
Speaker 2: now as we see.

854
00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:59,200
Speaker 3: I think so too. I think the Cincinnati is the

855
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:00,000
Speaker 3: best team in the division.

856
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:00,600
Speaker 2: Yeah.

857
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:02,759
Speaker 3: I don't know how i'd do it power ranks, but

858
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 3: I guess, if I'm honest with myself, i'd have since

859
00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:08,839
Speaker 3: he right around here. I mean, I would be.

860
00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,640
Speaker 2: Based on how their currently Baltimore won last week, but

861
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:12,799
Speaker 2: they were not impressive.

862
00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:14,480
Speaker 3: No, they We're at one.

863
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:17,240
Speaker 2: Hundred and fifty passing years against that Arizona Cardinals defense.

864
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:19,600
Speaker 3: They're doing a good job of just not screwing it

865
00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:21,920
Speaker 3: up every week, and therefore you're going to move up

866
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:24,080
Speaker 3: a spot every time every week or two in the

867
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:26,319
Speaker 3: power ranks, and until you reach it right around here,

868
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:27,799
Speaker 3: this is two or three, this is two.

869
00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:30,360
Speaker 2: They're not the second bet. They're not to be the

870
00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 2: best team in the AFC and be the second best

871
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:33,800
Speaker 2: team in the league.

872
00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,240
Speaker 3: Like I'm sure. And this is a little bit different

873
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:39,440
Speaker 3: if you went to Vegas right now and said, who

874
00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:42,360
Speaker 3: is the best shot to win the Super Bowl? The AFC.

875
00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:42,879
Speaker 3: It's not Balter.

876
00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:43,560
Speaker 2: It still cans.

877
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:45,799
Speaker 3: It's got Kent City, it still cans. Yeah, I be

878
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:48,239
Speaker 3: Buffalo's ahead of them. Yeah, since he might be ahead

879
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:51,640
Speaker 3: of them, yeah, I mean yeah, quarterbacks, and then number

880
00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:52,040
Speaker 3: one is.

881
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:54,800
Speaker 2: Philipad Number one is Philadelphia.

882
00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:56,640
Speaker 3: I guess, but there may be about the least impressive

883
00:37:56,719 --> 00:37:59,480
Speaker 3: number one of the year so far. They kind of

884
00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:02,399
Speaker 3: fell into it one loss. I mean, they're good, don't

885
00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:05,520
Speaker 3: get me wrong, but I'm a little worried. I don't

886
00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:06,399
Speaker 3: think Hurts is a star.

887
00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:08,719
Speaker 2: No, I mean, you know they're they're making deals for

888
00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 2: to get defensive back help. There's I mean obviously they're

889
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:12,680
Speaker 2: not happy with.

890
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,600
Speaker 3: No, I think there's more than tweaking things. I think

891
00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:17,520
Speaker 3: they're a little concerned about things. But they're good. I

892
00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:19,000
Speaker 3: mean they're the best team in the NFC for sure.

893
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:19,479
Speaker 2: Yeah.

894
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:23,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, probably right now, back to that Vegas conversation, they're

895
00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:24,880
Speaker 3: probably the shortest odds.

896
00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:25,719
Speaker 2: Yeah to go.

897
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, it might have been the Niners a couple of

898
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:28,719
Speaker 3: weeks ago.

899
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:32,040
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, So, I mean that's where we're at, where

900
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:34,680
Speaker 2: midway points. Some teams have played eight games. Some playing

901
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:37,040
Speaker 2: teams have played seven. We got another really another week

902
00:38:37,080 --> 00:38:40,000
Speaker 2: here before really kind of to the midway.

903
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:42,200
Speaker 3: Point, yeah, where most teams have played eight. Yeah.

904
00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:43,960
Speaker 2: Anyways, that was Eric had Holmes.

905
00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:45,399
Speaker 3: Besides the Jets. I'm not gonna kill him.

906
00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:47,399
Speaker 2: He's been high on the Jets. He must be from

907
00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:48,320
Speaker 2: New York and must.

908
00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:49,560
Speaker 3: Be a Jets fan that since week two.

909
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:52,360
Speaker 2: Because he had them way overrated to start the season.

910
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:54,640
Speaker 2: He kept them there even after they lost Aaron Ross

911
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:55,759
Speaker 2: lost quarterback. Yeah.

912
00:38:55,800 --> 00:39:00,160
Speaker 3: Yah, last week's win doesn't make you better, no, No,

913
00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:02,319
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, you shouldn't go up for that.

914
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:04,520
Speaker 2: You should not go up for going to overtime to

915
00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:06,600
Speaker 2: beat a team that had seven pass did I mentioned

916
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:10,000
Speaker 2: I had seven passing yards. I've covered this game a

917
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 2: long time, and I've never seen a team throw for

918
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:14,040
Speaker 2: seven yards in a game.

919
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:18,040
Speaker 3: Barkley had like thirty five touches, yeah, and ended with

920
00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:19,880
Speaker 3: like one hundred yards at most or something like.

921
00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:21,600
Speaker 2: It was one undred and thirty, was it?

922
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:24,279
Speaker 3: Yeah? I mean combined, I mean they're offense stinks. It's

923
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:25,320
Speaker 3: not like Barkley stings.

924
00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:28,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, you have to, you have struggle to beat that team.

925
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:31,880
Speaker 3: Speaking of streaming defenses, who plays a Giant this week?

926
00:39:32,760 --> 00:39:35,400
Speaker 2: Nobody that you want to start the Raiders?

927
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:37,440
Speaker 3: Is it that it might be that bad though it's

928
00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:39,919
Speaker 3: the Raiders. Well, Jones will at least throw the ball.

929
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:44,839
Speaker 3: They seven, they'll have more than seven. Yeah, but yeah,

930
00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:47,200
Speaker 3: who knows. Yeah, we got to get to a freak world.

943
00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:32,960
Speaker 2: Matt we were just talking about this off the air.

944
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:36,560
Speaker 2: I thought I remembered a situation where the Steelers won

945
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:40,080
Speaker 2: the coin toss in overtime and kicked off and chose

946
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:41,600
Speaker 2: to kick the ball.

947
00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:42,680
Speaker 3: And it was you're right.

948
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:46,880
Speaker 2: Twenty nineteen Steelers versus Ravens. It's the game. Mason Rudolph

949
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,560
Speaker 2: started it. He gets hurt midway through the third quarter.

950
00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:52,920
Speaker 2: Devlin Hodges comes in, Yeah, bring them in. They go

951
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:56,160
Speaker 2: to overtime and Mike Tomlins says, you know what wins

952
00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:58,080
Speaker 2: the toss? He wins the toss. I want to put

953
00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:00,759
Speaker 2: my defense on the field first. People killed him for this.

954
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:05,000
Speaker 2: It worked, It worked. They kick off to the Ravens

955
00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:08,400
Speaker 2: put it Boswell puts it in. It's a touchback. Ravens

956
00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:11,520
Speaker 2: takeover to twenty five. They get a tackle for a

957
00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:14,319
Speaker 2: loss by Stefan Twit on first down, so it's second

958
00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:16,600
Speaker 2: and eleven. They get a four yard sack by Bud

959
00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:19,960
Speaker 2: Dupree on second down. Now it's third and fifteen. Lamar

960
00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:24,520
Speaker 2: Jackson throws a one yard pass to Mark Andrews. They punt.

961
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,839
Speaker 2: The Ravens punt. The Steelers take over at their own

962
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:31,760
Speaker 2: thirty two. James Connor runs for three yards. Devlin Hodges,

963
00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:34,040
Speaker 2: who's now in the game. Who all he had done

964
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:37,960
Speaker 2: was he led a field goal drive from the forty

965
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:40,759
Speaker 2: five from the Ravens forty five. He got them three points.

966
00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:44,000
Speaker 2: He takes over. He hits Juju Smith Schuster for a

967
00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:46,880
Speaker 2: ten yard game. Marlon Humphrey comes in, strips the ball out.

968
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:50,160
Speaker 2: Three plays later, Justin Tucker comes on and kicks a

969
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:52,480
Speaker 2: forty six yard field goal to win it, and Mike

970
00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:55,520
Speaker 2: Tomlin got skewered. It was the right call. It was

971
00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:58,560
Speaker 2: the right decision to make because your offense had done

972
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:01,759
Speaker 2: nothing with if he hit your fourth string quarterback in

973
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:02,480
Speaker 2: the game.

974
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:08,520
Speaker 3: So I think you said off the air or we

975
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:12,120
Speaker 3: remember it this way that when getting skewed by the

976
00:42:12,160 --> 00:42:14,399
Speaker 3: media afterwards. Of course he's got a answer for that.

977
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:17,120
Speaker 3: That's an odd tactic of to say the least. He said,

978
00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:19,240
Speaker 3: I want to put my best unit on the field. Yes,

979
00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:23,600
Speaker 3: what he meant was, if I win and I ask

980
00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:25,600
Speaker 3: for the ball, Tucker's going to kick it in the

981
00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:27,600
Speaker 3: end zone. We're gonna get it out of twenty five.

982
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:32,080
Speaker 3: And my guy can't have a seventy five yard drive.

983
00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:34,040
Speaker 2: I'm not going to drive seventy five yards to win it.

984
00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:36,920
Speaker 3: Nope, he isn't. So I'll take door number.

985
00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:40,799
Speaker 2: Two, which is we kick off, we hold them, we

986
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:43,239
Speaker 2: get the ball back maybe at midfield. If we do

987
00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:46,840
Speaker 2: this right right somewhere around midfield, we get twenty ten, fifteen,

988
00:42:46,920 --> 00:42:49,359
Speaker 2: twenty yards, and we kick what would be a game

989
00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:50,319
Speaker 2: ending field goal.

990
00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:51,799
Speaker 3: And we also have a really good kicker to and

991
00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:53,879
Speaker 3: we have a really good kicker too, because yeah, I mean,

992
00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:58,759
Speaker 3: if Tucker kicks off, Duck comes out, maybe he gets four, six,

993
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:02,640
Speaker 3: eight yards, you punt, Tucker gets a ball at midfield,

994
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:05,720
Speaker 3: and the game's over right, the first down away from losing.

995
00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:08,640
Speaker 3: I mean, And that's exactly how the Jets won this week. Yeah,

996
00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:11,440
Speaker 3: Yet they were still second on the power ranks or

997
00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:13,759
Speaker 3: whatever it was. Yeah right, I'm a dead b Yeah yeah,

998
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:16,960
Speaker 3: I mean it's a the veto situation like the Jets

999
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:20,320
Speaker 3: were the Giants should have kicked.

1000
00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:24,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, looking here real quickly at the Titans injury report,

1001
00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:26,880
Speaker 2: I just got that in here. Chris Hubbard did not participate.

1002
00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:30,080
Speaker 2: He's got a concussion. He's not playing this with a concussion.

1003
00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:31,480
Speaker 3: I need to look for the starter or not.

1004
00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:36,439
Speaker 2: Cornerback Anthony Kendall was a full participant today. Chris Moore

1005
00:43:36,520 --> 00:43:40,560
Speaker 2: did not practice again today with the personal issue.

1006
00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:42,560
Speaker 3: They rotated their receivers a lot last game.
