4
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:15,280
Speaker 1: Now, along with the guys from guatin leagues dot com,

5
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:17,600
Speaker 1: here's your host, Paul Chargian.

6
00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:21,439
Speaker 3: Welcome to the first round of the playoffs. Yes, we're

7
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:25,960
Speaker 3: finally here. You've been working for fourteen weeks and now

8
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:29,800
Speaker 3: it's do or die. Every week counts. We're here to

9
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:33,200
Speaker 3: help on Paul Charchi and Coast Today, Brian Johnson and

10
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 3: thor Nystrom. Hey, guys, what's up boys.

11
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:38,879
Speaker 4: I think everyone has worked very hard, the hardest everyone's

12
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:40,600
Speaker 4: ever worked in they make the playoffs this year in

13
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:42,519
Speaker 4: fantasy football, it deals like this year.

14
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 3: It's been a tough road. Yeah, it has been a

15
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 3: tough road. If you made it in congratulations. I'll say

16
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:51,320
Speaker 3: this though. The big mistake that I think people make

17
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 3: is they get to the playoffs and they feel a

18
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 3: certain sense of like entitlement that because they they've gotten

19
00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 3: their roster to the playoffs, that done, they don't need

20
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 3: to do anything anymore. They're gonna just start the guys

21
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:08,039
Speaker 3: that got you there. You can't stop working now.

22
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 5: No, this is the wrong time. This is where the

23
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 5: work begins.

24
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:14,120
Speaker 3: That's right, So don't feel like you got to just

25
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,200
Speaker 3: go with the guys that got you there. You know,

26
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 3: were you the one that pivoted to Zamir White you

27
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 3: know on Thursday night? Those are the kinds of moves

28
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 3: that are gonna give you playoff wins.

29
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 2: Correct.

30
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 3: We're here to help. We're gonna break down all fifteen

31
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 3: of the remaining games, including the Saturday schedule. We will

32
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 3: give you the nine players upon whom you can take

33
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 3: a chance, and we'll answer three tough questions later in

34
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 3: this show, Brian, let's jump right into the matchups. Pittsburgh

35
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:42,120
Speaker 3: Steelers taking on the Colts. The one two punch of

36
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 3: Nase Harris and Jalen Warden were pretty much stopped last week.

37
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 3: What do you think of the running backs in this

38
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 3: game against the Colts.

39
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a better matchup this week for Warren and Harris.

40
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 3: Both should get.

41
00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 4: Decent usage against the Colts, who have yielded the fourth

42
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 4: and most rush attempts by running backs, and they've allowed

43
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 4: sixteen total touchdowns to the position. That's the third most

44
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 4: starting with Warren. Among running backs with one hundred plus carries.

45
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 4: Warren ranks first in yards per carry, yards after contact

46
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:19,079
Speaker 4: per carry and mistackles forced per carry, but he continues

47
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 4: to split time with Harris, who has been less efficient

48
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,799
Speaker 4: but still not bad. No posting decent fantasy numbers. So

49
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:26,240
Speaker 4: I got to see on both of them, but they're

50
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 4: gonna continue to eat each other's lunch. So just to

51
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 4: see for Warren and Harris, and a C for Deontay Johnson,

52
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 4: and I got George Pickens on the bench, So going

53
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 4: back to Johnson. Since his return in week seven, Pickens

54
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 4: has an eighteen percent target share, which is not a lot,

55
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 4: actually it's kind of bad. And Pickens hasn't scored since

56
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 4: Week eight, and during that same span, Pickens has topped

57
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 4: sixty receiving yards just once. So I'm just starting Johnson

58
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,800
Speaker 4: out of these two, who's scored in back to back games.

59
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 4: And it's a fairly neutral matchup. The Colts allowing nearly

60
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 4: one hundred and fifty yards in a touch per game

61
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 4: to opposing wide receiver, so I think Johnson's a safer play,

62
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,359
Speaker 4: So I'm off off off Pickins this week. I will

63
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,880
Speaker 4: get Pat Fryer Muth to see the cold steps surrender

64
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 4: just two tight end touchdowns all season, but they are

65
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 4: allowing more than five and a half catches and fifty

66
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 4: five yards per game to the position. So Muth is

67
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:20,800
Speaker 4: viable in the wasteland. Mitch Trubisky not viable.

68
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 3: Oh, I don't have my true I don't have my

69
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:24,640
Speaker 3: sad trombone Ski.

70
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 4: People, it's it's ingrained in their brains at this point.

71
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 4: They can hear it already.

72
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:32,080
Speaker 3: It's sad Trump. We don't have time for it.

73
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 4: We're not we're not. We're beyond Trubisky. We'll talk about him,

74
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 4: I probably never again. Continue over to the Colt side,

75
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 4: Zach Moss. He gets a be as expected. Moss has

76
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 4: been getting belcow usage with Jonathan Taylor out the last

77
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 4: two games. He's averaging nineteen touches. Moss is on nearly

78
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 4: ninety percent of the snaps, but he's only averaging fifty

79
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 4: seven combo yards with no touchdowns over the last two games.

80
00:03:57,760 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, tough opponents, though, tough opponents.

81
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 4: A little better matchup here, But just based on volume alone,

82
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 4: you're gonna start Zach Moss against anyone at this point.

83
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 3: So I'm gonna give him a bee.

84
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 4: I don't think he has a upside this week, but

85
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 4: he should provide a safe B floor or at least

86
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 4: a C floor over to the wide receivers. Michael Pittman's

87
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 4: the only one that's getting a starting grade for me.

88
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:17,840
Speaker 3: For the Colts.

89
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,839
Speaker 4: Pittman is averaging eleven and a half targets over his

90
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 4: last seven games. He's just been bawling out during that span.

91
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 4: This is not the best matchup. Pittsburgh hasn't allowed a

92
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 4: wide receiver touchdown in fourth straight. But Juju Smith, Schuster

93
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,279
Speaker 4: and Jamar Chase both had at least eighty yards against

94
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 4: the Steelers over the last two weeks, so that should

95
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,719
Speaker 4: be a safe floor for Pittman. So I'm still going

96
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,040
Speaker 4: to give him a bee here. But Josh Downs, he's

97
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,840
Speaker 4: on the bench. His yardage totals over the last five

98
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 4: thirty two, fourteen, forty three, forty and ten with no touchdowns,

99
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 4: had a nice run. But he's just a dynasty stash

100
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 4: right now. All the tight ends are on the bench

101
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:59,279
Speaker 4: because the Colts deploy four of them, none named Jolannie Woods.

102
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,360
Speaker 4: I'm sorry it's only because of injury, though it's unfortunate.

103
00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 3: And Gardner Minshew.

104
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 4: I was close to giving him a CE, but with

105
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 4: elite edge rushers, T J. Watt and Alex high Smith

106
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 4: expected to play. I just can't you know, I can't

107
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 4: tell you to sort of Gardner Minshew in the playoffs.

108
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 3: I don't think I would do it either. That's it

109
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 3: for that one. Jets take on the Dolphins in what

110
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 3: could be a significant rain game. Thor are we chasing

111
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:29,919
Speaker 3: the box score from AFC Offensive Player of the Week

112
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 3: Zach Wilson. I can't believe that string of words just

113
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:35,159
Speaker 3: came out of my mouth.

114
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, I can't believe I heard it. We're not.

115
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:42,480
Speaker 6: This is a tougher matchup for Zack Wilson for sure.

116
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,200
Speaker 6: You're alluding to a three hundred one passing yards and

117
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 6: two touchdowns.

118
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 5: Against the Texas last week.

119
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 6: But boy did the Texas have a future a secondary

120
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,599
Speaker 6: which we're gonna be talking about later on. I give

121
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,719
Speaker 6: Wilson a see here because of the tougher match He

122
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 6: did show something last week. But Dolphins have allowed the

123
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:02,039
Speaker 6: seventh fewest yards per attempts week ten, so a tougher matchup.

124
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,679
Speaker 6: Like I said, Garrett Wilson, I'm gonna give him a bee.

125
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 6: He was the biggest benefactor of Zach Wilson's resurgence last week.

126
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,600
Speaker 6: Season high one hundred and eight receiving yards on fourteen targets.

127
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:15,440
Speaker 6: This is a game script that is going to skew

128
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,480
Speaker 6: very pass heavy. Obviously, the Jets are big underdogs in

129
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 6: this one, but you know, again tougher match up in

130
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 6: terms of the on field thing. Miami's allowed the sixth

131
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 6: most opponent of justin fantasy points to wide receivers this year,

132
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 6: and contextually very important here to note Jalen Ramsey's been

133
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,160
Speaker 6: balling out since he came back. He's only allowed a

134
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:40,039
Speaker 6: forty two percent catch rates. It's nothing nuts. Yeah, he's

135
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 6: not going to be shadowing Wilson here, but they're going

136
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 6: to be heads up on each other quite a bit

137
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:46,360
Speaker 6: in this game. You have to dig Garrett Wilson a

138
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,159
Speaker 6: little bit. I give him a bee. Also give a

139
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 6: B to Breese Hall. Breese Hall fantasy running back fifteen

140
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:55,200
Speaker 6: so far, number five in yards after contact per attempt.

141
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 6: The Dolphins are top five though in suppressing explosive runs

142
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 6: and yards after for the contact since Week nine. So

143
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:04,920
Speaker 6: we're gonna stick with a B on that one. Moving

144
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,839
Speaker 6: to the Dolphins, I've give to a C in this one.

145
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 6: Last time he played the Jets, he threw two interceptions.

146
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 6: The Jets have allowed an NFL low yards per attempts

147
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 6: since Week eight, and also two has been trending down,

148
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,920
Speaker 6: as you guys know, in terms of fantasy He's been

149
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 6: QB sixteen or worse in three of his last five games.

150
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 6: And the Tyreek Hill status, you know, is still up

151
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 6: in the air. I give Tyreek a beat if he plays,

152
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:33,120
Speaker 6: but he missed significant time as you guys know, against

153
00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 6: the Titans last week after he injured his ankle in

154
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 6: the first quarter. Only ended up playing forty six percent

155
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 6: of the snaps in that game. He said afterwards that

156
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 6: he wasn't able to cut and change directions like normal.

157
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 3: And that, by the way, that's his gate, that's his.

158
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 6: Entire game, and so you take away his yeah, that movement, Yeah,

159
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 6: that's right. Yeah, it severely hampers him. He has not

160
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 6: practiced this week. He's officially questionable. Mike McDaniel was talking

161
00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 6: to the media like, don't read too much into him

162
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,640
Speaker 6: not practicing. So you could see him out there, but

163
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 6: if he does play, you got to curb your enthusiasm

164
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 6: because it's a tougher matchup against his Jets defense, and

165
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,560
Speaker 6: he's obviously not going to be one hundred percent, so

166
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 6: b if he plays, I'm giving Jayalen Wattle a bee

167
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 6: as well in this one. He's going to get pounded

168
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 6: with the targets if Cheetah is out, but they don't

169
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 6: ever look at him in the red zone even when

170
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 6: Cheata's not on the field, So that's cut down on

171
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,760
Speaker 6: Wattle's fantasy value this year, only at eight red zone

172
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 6: targets all season. The last time against the Jets, though

173
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 6: he did go eight for eight on targets for one

174
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 6: hundred and fourteen receiving yards. Devin Auchay and I'm giving

175
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 6: him a seat if he plays. He's the other big

176
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 6: one who's up in the air right now with his

177
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 6: status questionable with a toe injury mispractice on Wednesday. He

178
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 6: did return Thursday and Friday, but was limited. Workload's going

179
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 6: to be slash if he does end up going in

180
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 6: this one. Playable if you're desperate, if you know that

181
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 6: he's going to be playing in this game, but monitor

182
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 6: that status. Rocky Moster, I'm going to give him a bee.

183
00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 6: He played sixty four percent of the snaps with twenty

184
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 6: two touches and one hundred total yards last week, and

185
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 6: this is a game where there could be Grand Slam

186
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 6: potential for him if Auchen is out big, if there

187
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 6: Jets have a run funnel defense. Opponents average more rush

188
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,680
Speaker 6: attempts per game against the Jets and anyone else in

189
00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:14,000
Speaker 6: the NFL, we're given moster to be.

190
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is up. This is gonna be a tricky matchup.

191
00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 3: I get the feeling one or two Dolphins is going

192
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 3: to have a down game against a very good defense.

193
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,599
Speaker 3: And guys who Dolphins that carried you into the playoffs

194
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 3: going to let some people down this week. Agreed, Bret

195
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 3: Bears take on the Browns, and this is two really,

196
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:34,560
Speaker 3: really good defenses. And if you think Chicago's not, you're wrong.

197
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 3: Continue listening on. We'll start at the bare side of

198
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 3: the ball, though, justin fields better matchup than it appears

199
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 3: at first glance. Cleveland has a lot of consecutive three

200
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,320
Speaker 3: touchdown passing games. After giving up none of those in

201
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,600
Speaker 3: the first eleven games, the Browns have allowed five quarterback

202
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,320
Speaker 3: rushing touchdowns that's third most in the league, and since

203
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:56,240
Speaker 3: returning from injury, fields averaging eleven designed runs per game

204
00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:00,200
Speaker 3: seventy four rushing yards per game. We're getting our be

205
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 3: two rushing production out of justin field, so B grade

206
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,559
Speaker 3: right there. Even though it's a it is generally a

207
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 3: pretty tough passing matchup, made tougher by the ankle injury

208
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 3: to DJ Moore. You're gonna want to follow his status

209
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 3: as a game time decision, but it's a brutal matchup

210
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 3: against an elite secondary, especially if Denzel Ward, who's questionable,

211
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:22,199
Speaker 3: can return from his shoulder injury. But even if he can't,

212
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 3: cornerbacks Martin Emerson and Greg Newsen have played great over

213
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 3: the last five weeks. They're giving up a less than

214
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 3: sixty percent catch rate and a forty four passer rating.

215
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 3: That's it. They've combined to allow zero touchdowns and four

216
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 3: interceptions over the course of the season. Your glimmer of

217
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 3: hope here is that Cleveland plays almost exclusively man coverage,

218
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,720
Speaker 3: and DJ Moore is the seventh highest graded wide receiver

219
00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,000
Speaker 3: versus man coverage by Pro Football Focus. We've got a

220
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,400
Speaker 3: C grade on DJ Moore, assuming he's able to go.

221
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 3: Cole Comet clocks in. Only two tight ends have posted

222
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 3: big games against the Browns. It Commet clocking with the

223
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 3: C Mark and Andrews and Evan Ingram last week had

224
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 3: big games against the Rounds. Everybody else has just been duds.

225
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 3: The other tight ends are averaging one and a half

226
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 3: catches for seventeen yards a game. I it's nothing.

227
00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:17,560
Speaker 4: Evan Ingram essentially octupled the per game averages. Yeah, catches, yards,

228
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 4: touchdowns last week unbelievable.

229
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 3: Yeah. Comt has seen at least seven targets in five

230
00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:24,719
Speaker 3: of the past six games, but half of those are

231
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 3: with Tyler Bagen, who has dumping the ball to him constantly.

232
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 3: Fields has got a lot more up and down usage

233
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 3: with Kamet. I still think this is a a playable

234
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 3: entity here in Parks. They're not a lot of alternatives

235
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,680
Speaker 3: have passed to see great on Comet. We'll talk about

236
00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:38,839
Speaker 3: don to Foreman next segment. Let's go over to the

237
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 3: Cleveland side. Joe Flacco has been shockingly good. It's funny

238
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,200
Speaker 3: how he walked into this offense and looked more comfortable

239
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,760
Speaker 3: in the Browns offense than the quarterbacks who are there

240
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,719
Speaker 3: all year. For sure, he's thrown for five hundred and

241
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 3: sixty five yards and five touchdowns, but this is a

242
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:59,440
Speaker 3: very tough matchup against a massively improved Bear secondary that's

243
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,560
Speaker 3: held their last two quarterbacks they face to less than

244
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:06,640
Speaker 3: two hundred passing yards and six combined interceptions. This is

245
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 3: a tricky matchup for Flacco, only a C grade for him.

246
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 3: Let's talk to his receivers, who all get C grades

247
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 3: as well, including David and Joko, averaging nearly eight targets

248
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 3: per game in his last three games, including season highs.

249
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 3: So Joe Flacco. Since way back in Week seven, the

250
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,680
Speaker 3: Bears are much improved against tight ends, allowing just thirty

251
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 3: five yards to the position per game. They've given up

252
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 3: half a touchdown per game, which isn't bad, and that's

253
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:31,679
Speaker 3: your best reason to start in Joko here and is

254
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 3: why he still gets a C grade as the prospect

255
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,760
Speaker 3: of a touchdown. Amari Cooper is coming off a fourteen

256
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:39,559
Speaker 3: target game, but he's going to get lighter usage here

257
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 3: for sure. He probably gets shadow coverage from emerging elite

258
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:47,760
Speaker 3: cornerback Jayalen Johnson, who's just turned into a menace, just

259
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 3: one score all season allowed, and he's giving up a

260
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 3: forty eight percent catch rate opposing number one outside wideouts,

261
00:12:55,760 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 3: having topped fifty seven receiving yards against Chicago since Week two. Wow,

262
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 3: so fifty seven feels like your absolute max for Amari Cooper,

263
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:07,839
Speaker 3: and it's why he's just a C grade. Elijah Moore

264
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 3: comes into the C grade slot receivers avoid Jalen Johnson,

265
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 3: they fare better than their outside counterparts, although I will

266
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 3: note I'm on ros Saint Brown just got held to

267
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 3: a season low last week, so even Elijah were not

268
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:22,080
Speaker 3: a sure thing. Moore has top forty two yards in

269
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 3: five straight games, which I like, and he's had the

270
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,440
Speaker 3: upticking usage and better passing frankly from Joe Flacco, but

271
00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:30,600
Speaker 3: he scored just once all season. C grade there, and

272
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 3: then the last guy I want to talk about, Jerome Ford.

273
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:37,199
Speaker 3: The Bears have turned into just a fantastic run stuffing defense.

274
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:41,319
Speaker 3: No back his top seventy six yards all year, although

275
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 3: both of the Detroit backs said sixty six yards last week.

276
00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,600
Speaker 3: I'll mention that Chicago's only given up three rushing touchdowns

277
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:49,080
Speaker 3: since back in Week three. Ford has cut eight of

278
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 3: nine targets from Joe Flacco, so I like that. And

279
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 3: the Bears allow the most receiving yards to opposing running

280
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:57,320
Speaker 3: backs fifty eight per game. So you start forward in

281
00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:02,319
Speaker 3: PPR formats with a C raid. When we come back,

282
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 3: take a chance on me nine players not normally in

283
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 3: your starting lineup. I already tipped my hand for one

284
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 3: of them. Find out who the other eight are when

285
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 3: we come back to Fantasy Football Weekly. Take a chance

286
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 3: on me. Nine players not normally in your starting lineup.

287
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 3: Find out who they are right here, beginning at the

288
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 3: quarterback position, and Brian Johnson take a chance. Forget about it.

289
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:53,600
Speaker 3: I got Tommy DeVito at the Saints.

290
00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:57,320
Speaker 4: Over here, opposing quarterbacks were averaging around two hundred passing

291
00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 4: yards and one and a half passing touchdowns per against

292
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,640
Speaker 4: the Saints. That's decent production. But the real angle here

293
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,920
Speaker 4: is the rushing. New Orleans has allowed the second most

294
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:10,240
Speaker 4: rushing yards to quarterbacks. Five of the last six they

295
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 4: faced have run for at least forty yards. And I'm

296
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,920
Speaker 4: also gonna guess Tommy Dee remembers that the Saints decided

297
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:19,960
Speaker 4: to pick Jake Hayner over him with the one and

298
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:23,840
Speaker 4: twenty seventh overall pick in the fourth round. Spike game incoming,

299
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 4: and let me take this a little further, all right,

300
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 4: Spike game last week for de Vito against the Packers.

301
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 4: They took a quarterback, and thor will do all these quarterbacks.

302
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 4: Then it's the Saints. Yeah, and then Eagles. Everyone he

303
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:40,040
Speaker 4: faces in the Rams, Eagles, Rams, Eagles, they all took

304
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 4: a quarterback in the fourth round or later over Tommy DeVito.

305
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,200
Speaker 4: He's going to run the table on all these fools.

306
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 3: All right, thor you're taking to some quarterback.

307
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 6: I'm going with Will Levis and this one another guy

308
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 6: was taking ahead of Tommy DeVito, and I can't believe

309
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 6: I'm stumping for him here. Levis and the Titans are

310
00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 6: playing the Texans this week. Since Levis got into the

311
00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 6: starting lineup, he's been a fantasy q you know, super

312
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:05,239
Speaker 6: flex league startable, okay, fringish, you know, twelve.

313
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 5: Team super flex QB two.

314
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,680
Speaker 6: But there's a possibility that he could be at QB one,

315
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 6: I think in standard twelve team leagues this week against

316
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,880
Speaker 6: a rans at Texans pass defense. And for anyone out

317
00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:17,000
Speaker 6: there right now who's thinking that is a crazy thing

318
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 6: to say. Zach Wilson through for three hundred plus yards

319
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:22,560
Speaker 6: and two touchdowns against his tech Texans secondary last week.

320
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 5: They're very, very bad.

321
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 6: The Texans have allowed the second highest yards per attempts

322
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 6: since Week nine. And the last thing the Titans are

323
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 6: gonna be wearing those Oilers uniforms.

324
00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:32,800
Speaker 3: You want a piece of that.

325
00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 5: They're gonna looking flashy.

326
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:37,360
Speaker 4: This week in Houston too. That's like a it's not

327
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 4: a revenge game. It's like a uniform, just like I

328
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:41,080
Speaker 4: like that.

329
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:41,760
Speaker 5: I don't like it.

330
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 3: I love it, like it, I do it. I like it.

331
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 3: Matthew Stafford is kind of an obvious pick. I went,

332
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:49,120
Speaker 3: I went obvious choice here, so just beare me out.

333
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 3: Washington is the opponent. They're the league's worst pass defense,

334
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:56,000
Speaker 3: and it's not close. They've allowed the most passing touchdowns thirty.

335
00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:58,880
Speaker 3: With four weeks to go in the season, Washington has

336
00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 3: already allowed more pass touchdowns than thirty one of thirty

337
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:06,359
Speaker 3: two teams did all of last season. Nine of the

338
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:10,680
Speaker 3: last ten quarterbacks to face Washington have thrown for multiple touchdowns,

339
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:12,480
Speaker 3: and the only guy who didn't was Mac Jones, and

340
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:15,720
Speaker 3: he does not count. After a very slow start, Stafford's

341
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 3: been red hot four touchdowns, three touchdowns, three touchdowns the

342
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 3: last three weeks. I think he's an obvious start. In fact,

343
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,280
Speaker 3: I think he's my number five or six fantasy quarterback

344
00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 3: This week. To go to the running back position, Brian.

345
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 4: I've got Atlanta's Tyler Algier at the Panthers. These teams

346
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:33,879
Speaker 4: first met back in Week one, and Algier outproduced Bijon

347
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:37,480
Speaker 4: Robinson Algier at ninety four combo yards and two touchdowns

348
00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:40,399
Speaker 4: on eighteen touches. Bijeon has been getting more of the

349
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:42,239
Speaker 4: work as of late, as we all know, but there

350
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,200
Speaker 4: should be enough meat on the bone in this very

351
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:48,680
Speaker 4: juicy matchup, which is going to be played in torrential rain.

352
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,160
Speaker 4: They're saying like two to three inches, Yeah, twenty mile

353
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 4: prour wins and no one throws on the Panthers anyway,

354
00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:57,400
Speaker 4: who have allowed the most rushing yards and rushing touchdowns

355
00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 4: at running backs. And that's pretty easy to do when

356
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,679
Speaker 4: you've yielded the second most red zone touches to running

357
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,600
Speaker 4: backs and the second most touches in gold to ghost scenarios.

358
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,640
Speaker 3: So Tyler l jeer viable this week? All right, let's

359
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,400
Speaker 3: go to Thori. You take a chance with me running back.

360
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,200
Speaker 3: Let's get another share of those oilers' uniforms. All right,

361
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 3: We're going with Taj Spears a frequent frequent appearances. I

362
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,240
Speaker 3: think he's old, second only to Baker Mayfield. And take

363
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:22,399
Speaker 3: a chance on the appearances.

364
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 6: Home run hitter thirteen touches for one hundred and eighteen

365
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:28,520
Speaker 6: yards on sixty six percent of the snaps last week.

366
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,960
Speaker 6: There's an opportunity for another good game here. The Texans

367
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:35,160
Speaker 6: not only have the mediocre run defense, but they're bottom

368
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 6: ten in the league in receptions allowed and receiving receiving

369
00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:41,919
Speaker 6: yardage allowed. I'm sorry to opposing running backs. Taja has

370
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:44,120
Speaker 6: been getting some of those receiving looks and he can

371
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 6: break off any touchdown he gets for a touchdown. The

372
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 6: game script is also going to be in his favor

373
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:52,000
Speaker 6: here with the Texans starting Davis Mills and that injury

374
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:53,400
Speaker 6: decimated wide receiving core.

375
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,200
Speaker 3: Houston's gonna get rolled exactly.

376
00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:56,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, and Spears is going to get the touches, and

377
00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,600
Speaker 6: he has been incredible on a per touch basis this year.

378
00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 3: Doctor Foreman is the player who's alluding to last segment.

379
00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:06,359
Speaker 3: Last week, he was the clearback for lead back for

380
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:09,639
Speaker 3: Chicago fifty five percent snap rate and Rochdown Johnson and

381
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 3: Khalil Herbert combined for four carries. Since returning from injury

382
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:16,960
Speaker 3: in Week eleven, Foreman's gotten one hundred percent of the

383
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,879
Speaker 3: team's carries from inside the five yard line and a

384
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:22,919
Speaker 3: touchdown is a very real possibility here. Cleveland has allowed

385
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:26,640
Speaker 3: six rushing touchdowns in the last five games. They've also

386
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 3: started giving up more yards ninety seven running back rushing

387
00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,159
Speaker 3: yards per game over the last five weeks. That's a

388
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:34,679
Speaker 3: much more yielding Brown's run defense than we were used to.

389
00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:37,560
Speaker 3: Let's go to the receivers, Brian, who you got.

390
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:41,919
Speaker 4: I'm pairing Wandale Robinson with Tommy DeVito at the Saints slot.

391
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:45,560
Speaker 4: Receivers have been showing up week over week against the Saints.

392
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:49,040
Speaker 4: Adam Thielen five catches seventy four yards, a Monro Saint

393
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:52,000
Speaker 4: Brown forty nine yards in a touchdown, Darnell Mooney five

394
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:55,359
Speaker 4: catches for eighty two yards, Josh Downs seven catches for

395
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 4: seventy two yards, Christian Kirk six for ninety in a touchdown.

396
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,240
Speaker 4: Robert Woods scored against the Saints. The list goes on

397
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:06,040
Speaker 4: and on. So wandel Robinson, who's also balling out, Yeah,

398
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:07,920
Speaker 4: and they're getting the ball in his hands, whether they're

399
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:10,359
Speaker 4: throwing it to him, handing it off. So I like

400
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 4: the Vito in Robinson a lot, bearing them.

401
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,240
Speaker 3: Up all right, thor you're taking a chance with me

402
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 3: wide out.

403
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:18,200
Speaker 6: I'm going with Broncos wide receiver Jerry Judy and their

404
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:19,240
Speaker 6: game against the Lions.

405
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:21,720
Speaker 3: He definitely qualifies by the way he doesn't take it

406
00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:22,240
Speaker 3: down now.

407
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:24,959
Speaker 6: Yeah, obviously he's been super disappointing, so people out there

408
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 6: who have him might be like, I'm not doing that.

409
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:28,399
Speaker 5: All can see it.

410
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,400
Speaker 6: He's wide receiver sixty one and fantasy points per game

411
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:34,320
Speaker 6: and Jerry Judy is not top seven or sixty receiving

412
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 6: yards since Week seven. I think he gets there this week, though,

413
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 6: there's hope because of the matchup.

414
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 5: Jerry Judy leads the team.

415
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:44,080
Speaker 6: Even though he's played poorly this year, he still leads

416
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:47,480
Speaker 6: the Broncos in first read share against single high coverage.

417
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 6: The Lions play a ton of single high coverage and

418
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,919
Speaker 6: the Lions pass defense has been bad. Also, Judy is

419
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 6: going to be lined up across from Lion's rookie slot

420
00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 6: Brian Branch, who is allowed pass the rating of over

421
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 6: one hundred and one this year.

422
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 3: Wow, yeah, all right, would you guys care to hazard

423
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 3: a guess Pro Football Focus is highest rated wide receiver

424
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:10,480
Speaker 3: in the last month.

425
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 7: Not Jerry Judy, but I like the cal Thor I'm

426
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:20,280
Speaker 7: not throw the bu Dell Beckham.

427
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 4: Hey, my peacock off is still alive. Top twenty four

428
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:24,439
Speaker 4: wide receiver.

429
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:26,720
Speaker 3: I called it. Yeah, well, I hope you're not close yet.

430
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 3: Maybe this game will do it. Fourteen targets in two

431
00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:33,359
Speaker 3: games under Joe Flacco, his biggest two game target total

432
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,879
Speaker 3: all season, and over the past five weeks, the Jaguars,

433
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:41,240
Speaker 3: his opponent, are bottom five in receptions, yards, and touchdowns

434
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:44,040
Speaker 3: allowed to wide receivers. Some recent blow up games for

435
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:49,480
Speaker 3: outside wide receivers. Against Jacksonville last week, Amari Cooper fourteen targets,

436
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:53,439
Speaker 3: seven catches. The previous week, Jamar Chase eleven catches, one

437
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 3: hundred and forty nine yards touchdown. Previous week Nicocollins one

438
00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:01,640
Speaker 3: hundred four yards touchdown. Odell Beckham feels very safe here

439
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:04,520
Speaker 3: as somebody would not normally start, but you could this week.

440
00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 3: Let's go back to the matchups. The Atlanta Falcons taking

441
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:10,240
Speaker 3: on the Carolina Panthers. You told us that you like

442
00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:13,879
Speaker 3: Tyler lg Er already imagine Bjon Robinson. You'll like him

443
00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:17,440
Speaker 3: even better. Yeah, and for many of the same reasons.

444
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:20,560
Speaker 4: Many of the same reasons. Again, no one throws against Carolina.

445
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 4: They don't have to. They're so easy to run. Against

446
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:24,480
Speaker 4: and the weather is going to be a factor. They

447
00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:26,800
Speaker 4: have a really good secondary. They do, yeah, they do.

448
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not gonna fall that if they've got quality

449
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:31,679
Speaker 3: players in that secondary too. But back to Beijon, he

450
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:33,920
Speaker 3: gets the A. I just said this.

451
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,240
Speaker 4: I'm not even going through the stacks all yes, A

452
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:38,600
Speaker 4: for Bejon Algier was might take a chance on me

453
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 4: running back. Sadly, Drake London the only starting grade I'm

454
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 4: giving out in the passing game, so that means Kyle

455
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:48,760
Speaker 4: Pitts on the bench. Back to London, he looked amazing

456
00:22:48,840 --> 00:22:50,919
Speaker 4: last week, but this is a bad matchup on paper,

457
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 4: especially with these weather concerns. No one throws on the

458
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 4: Panthers and they do have a good secondary. That's why

459
00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:59,120
Speaker 4: opposing White House or averaging less than eleven catches per

460
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,840
Speaker 4: game against Carolin, So I can't fault you if you

461
00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,199
Speaker 4: have a better for sitting London, if you have a

462
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,879
Speaker 4: better option. But again, not a great matchup, so just

463
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:10,960
Speaker 4: the softest of seas for London. And obviously Desmond Ritter

464
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:13,840
Speaker 4: on the bench as well, despite his blow up game

465
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 4: last week, but that was an anomaly. Over to the

466
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,640
Speaker 4: Carolina side, I just have one starting grade and it's

467
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,679
Speaker 4: on Chuba Hubbard. Hubbard has forty eight carries over his

468
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 4: last two games for nearly two hundred yards and two touchdowns.

469
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:30,000
Speaker 4: Belcow usage, but this is a brutal matchup. The Falcons

470
00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:34,199
Speaker 4: still haven't surrendered a rushing touchdown way running back. The

471
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 4: Ravens have surrendered three, and that's the second fewests.

472
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 3: Just incredible.

473
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 4: But Atlanta is middle of the road when it comes

474
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 4: to rushing and combo yards allowed, so Hubbard should be

475
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,240
Speaker 4: viable if he touched the three yards and touch.

476
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:49,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's total.

477
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 4: He's not an RB one by any means, but he's

478
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:55,760
Speaker 4: flexworthy this week. And then again, everyone else on the bench,

479
00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:59,400
Speaker 4: even Adam Feelen. That epic run from weeks two through

480
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 4: six was a long time ago. Week six was the

481
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:06,840
Speaker 4: last time Feeling scored or topped one hundred yards, and

482
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 4: the Falcons are vicious against wide receivers, allowing the third

483
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,919
Speaker 4: fewest receptions and yards to the position and Feeling only

484
00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 4: at two catches for twelve scoreless yards in the first meeting.

485
00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 4: So he's on the bench unfortunately, all right with Mingo, Hurst,

486
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:21,399
Speaker 4: Bryce Young, all those guys, the.

487
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,840
Speaker 3: Guys that you don't care about, thor Houston taking Tennessee.

488
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:26,760
Speaker 3: You've already touched on this a number of times and

489
00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:28,760
Speaker 3: take a chance on me, but not the Houston side

490
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:32,960
Speaker 3: With Davis Mills at the helm? Who am I? Is

491
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 3: there anybody to start here?

492
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 6: Noah Brown if you need it. If he plays, But

493
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:40,520
Speaker 6: he's questionable as well with a knee injury. Limited in

494
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 6: practice this week, and he's been a ghost the past

495
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 6: two weeks, been a little bit dinged up. But he's

496
00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 6: gonna get all the usage her wide receiver one if

497
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:50,200
Speaker 6: he targets if he does play, because Nico Collins and

498
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 6: Tank Dell are both out. But of course he's gonna

499
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:54,200
Speaker 6: be playing with Davis Mill, So how much will that matter?

500
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,200
Speaker 6: I give So I'm gonna give him a see.

501
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:56,720
Speaker 5: If he plays.

502
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:58,880
Speaker 6: Dalton Schultz, I'm gonna give him a see as well.

503
00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,600
Speaker 6: We know he is returning to the field after missing

504
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,879
Speaker 6: the last two weeks with a hamstring injury. Schultz was

505
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,119
Speaker 6: taken off the injury reports sore here going to be playing.

506
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 6: He was a red zone target hawk earlier this season.

507
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:12,400
Speaker 6: But how many times are the Texans going to reach

508
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:15,720
Speaker 6: the red zone in this game? But looking my question, Yeah,

509
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 6: the Titans also allowed the second fewest Fantasy points per

510
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:22,400
Speaker 6: game to tight ends, so not the best matchup. Motor Singletary,

511
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 6: I'm going to give him a see. Has supplanted our boy,

512
00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 6: Damian Pierce's lead back. It hurts to say. Singletary had

513
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:31,080
Speaker 6: sixty five total yards on fifty seven percent of the

514
00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:34,159
Speaker 6: snaps last week. The Titans run defense has been playing

515
00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:37,720
Speaker 6: better recently number two stuff rates since Week ten, so

516
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,400
Speaker 6: it can only give Motor a c. On the Titan side,

517
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,680
Speaker 6: Levis and Spears were might take a chance on me,

518
00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:46,399
Speaker 6: Guys DeAndre Hopkins, I give him an a. In seven

519
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,639
Speaker 6: games with Will Levis, Hopkins is averaging seventy five yards

520
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 6: and a touchdown per game. He's also been targeted twenty

521
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:54,680
Speaker 6: four times in the past two games. He's like the

522
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 6: baby's blanket for Will. Levis and the Texans of course

523
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,719
Speaker 6: have the atrocious pass which we talked about before, and

524
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 6: also a.

525
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:03,640
Speaker 3: Revenge game of course too.

526
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,960
Speaker 4: For DeAndre Hopkins exactly, I guess his original team, that's.

527
00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:09,560
Speaker 6: Right, chick at Congquo. We're going to give him a see.

528
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:11,800
Speaker 6: He's been one of the winners of the Titans. Turning

529
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 6: to Levis, Chig has two point three yards per route run.

530
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 6: Since Week ten, the Texans allowed the third most fantasy

531
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:20,919
Speaker 6: points per game to opposing tight ends to solid matchup

532
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,879
Speaker 6: for Chig, the concern is zero touchdowns this year and

533
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,000
Speaker 6: you're not really targeting him in the red zone, so

534
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:27,679
Speaker 6: you gotta dig him a little bit for that. And

535
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,560
Speaker 6: then lastly, Derek Henry, I give him a b RB

536
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:33,040
Speaker 6: twelve and fantasy points per game so far this year.

537
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:36,560
Speaker 6: Another strong games coming here against the Texans run defense

538
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:39,520
Speaker 6: that has struggled in recent games. Texans have missed the

539
00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 6: six most tackles per attempts since Week ten, and.

540
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:46,440
Speaker 4: His history against the Texans is absolutely insane.

541
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,600
Speaker 3: He's scored at least once in like five straight Like no, no,

542
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:51,440
Speaker 3: he's kind of like, like half of his last five

543
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:54,760
Speaker 3: performances are two hundred yard rushing performances.

544
00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:56,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, big game could be coming.

545
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:59,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's hope that now. The past is not always

546
00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:01,840
Speaker 3: indicative of the future. But I think he's got one

547
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,480
Speaker 3: more in them, one more in him Garter. Yeah, come on, kay,

548
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 3: one more time. That'd be great when we come back.

549
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:11,600
Speaker 3: Vikings versus Panthers. Vikings have Nick Mullins under center. Does

550
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:15,679
Speaker 3: that help their well breaking news? It helps compare to

551
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 3: what they've had the past several weeks. How much is

552
00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:20,960
Speaker 3: it enough to help some of the Vikings that you're

553
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 3: counting on in the playoffs? Find out when we come back.

554
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:41,280
Speaker 3: Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly. Paul Chargie and Brian Johnson

555
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 3: thor Nystrom with you. It's the first playoff week. We're

556
00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 3: here to try to help you make the best of it.

557
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 3: Vikings take on the Bengals. Vikings is going to be

558
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 3: without excellent right tackle Brian O'Neill. You'll want to be

559
00:27:55,840 --> 00:28:00,119
Speaker 3: thoughtful about how that could impact this offense least a

560
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 3: little bit. I'm going to start with a player who

561
00:28:04,080 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 3: has the potential for an absolutely gigantic game. Can I

562
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:12,359
Speaker 3: take a guess? Yeah? It is time. It's tie time, right, No,

563
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,720
Speaker 3: you gotta start with Ty Chandler. Charge, fine, I'll start

564
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,080
Speaker 3: with Ty Chandler. I love No, I don't want the

565
00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:21,760
Speaker 3: drug for Ty Midsummer. That's what I thought you would

566
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 3: have started. All Kevin O'Connell has done is find ways

567
00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 3: to diminish his role, despite Alexander Madison being every bit

568
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:32,240
Speaker 3: as mundane as I was feared. Madison ruled out Chandler

569
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,960
Speaker 3: presumed starter, but they activated Miles Gaskin on Friday. Now,

570
00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 3: Oh no, I'm nervous. Cincinnati has got a bunch of

571
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:42,600
Speaker 3: middle of the pack run defense metrics, but they also

572
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 3: are twenty sixth in run stuff win rate, which could

573
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,760
Speaker 3: suggest that there's a little something to be done here.

574
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:52,040
Speaker 3: Vikings are not a great run blocking team, but Chandler's

575
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 3: got a little burst, a little wiggle. Maybe I'll be

576
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 3: able to get something done anyway. Bengals allow five rushing

577
00:28:57,680 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 3: touchdowns in their last five games. I'd love to see

578
00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 3: you getting the end zone here. Chandler is a better

579
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 3: receiver than Madison. He could chip in four or five

580
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:07,200
Speaker 3: receptions without Madison on the field at all. So I've

581
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:10,600
Speaker 3: got a C grade on Chandler. Mostly, I'm more worried

582
00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:13,880
Speaker 3: about Kevin O'Connell than I am about the Bengals. But

583
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 3: maybe that's just totally ill founded, and we'll find out.

584
00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:19,640
Speaker 3: I hope Chandler touches the ball twenty times. I'd be

585
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 3: very happy about that. All right. Now, let's go to

586
00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 3: the player sitting out a potentially explosive game for the

587
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 3: Minnesota Vikings.

588
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:29,840
Speaker 5: TJ.

589
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:34,040
Speaker 3: Hockinson. Get a load of this and credit Scott Fish

590
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:37,960
Speaker 3: for the stat as a starter in San Francisco. Nick

591
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 3: Mullins average game to George Kittle. He played sixteen games

592
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:48,800
Speaker 3: in San Francisco. His average game to George Kittle seven catches,

593
00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:53,720
Speaker 3: one hundred yards. Oh baby, If any of that's coming

594
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:57,280
Speaker 3: to TJ. Hockinson, I'm interested. But you might be saying, well,

595
00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:01,760
Speaker 3: but what about that Bengals defense? How about this Bengals

596
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:07,680
Speaker 3: have allowed the most yards to opposing tight ends. And

597
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:10,320
Speaker 3: get a load of the recent games by tight ends

598
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:15,320
Speaker 3: against the Bengals last week, Moli Cox touchdown. Week before

599
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:20,000
Speaker 3: Evan Ingram nine catches eighty two yards, first touchdown of

600
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:24,520
Speaker 3: the year. Week before that, Pat Fryermouth season highs nine

601
00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 3: catches one hundred and twenty yards. Week before that, Mark

602
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:32,800
Speaker 3: Anders got hurt. Week before that, Dalton Schultz seventy one yards.

603
00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 3: Week before that, Dalton Kincaid ten catches eighty one yards.

604
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:39,680
Speaker 3: Week before that, George Kittle won one hundred and fifty

605
00:30:39,760 --> 00:30:41,320
Speaker 3: yards against the Bengals.

606
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:42,720
Speaker 5: TJ.

607
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:47,120
Speaker 3: Hockinson my highest rated tight end this week. What about

608
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:49,959
Speaker 3: the rest of the Vikings receivers? Justin Jefferson, He's going

609
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 3: to play through that chest injury sustained on Josh Dobbs's

610
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:58,320
Speaker 3: murder pass. Feeling a bit gunshy after last week, but murdered. Yes,

611
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:02,480
Speaker 3: it was a murder pass. Cincinnati is Pro Football Focus's

612
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 3: third lowest graded coverage unit, but they do have some talent,

613
00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:10,040
Speaker 3: including veteran cornerback Chidobe Auzier, who has been very good,

614
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:12,320
Speaker 3: allowing just one touchdown since Week two an average of

615
00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:15,520
Speaker 3: just twenty five yards in his coverage. Nick Mullens comes in,

616
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:19,720
Speaker 3: obviously that changes things, But get this, Nick Mullins highest

617
00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 3: passer rating on deep balls of longer than twenty yards.

618
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:26,240
Speaker 3: That makes me optimistic that we're going to get some

619
00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:30,080
Speaker 3: of the down field abilities from Justin Jefferson we haven't

620
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:33,600
Speaker 3: seen since he and Kirk Cousins were playing together. B

621
00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:37,320
Speaker 3: great for Justin Jefferson, C grade for Jordan Adison. Now

622
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 3: with Jefferson back, Addison's going to see fewer targets, but

623
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:44,160
Speaker 3: they'll be better targets because Jefferson's going to be commanding

624
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:47,000
Speaker 3: a lot better coverage. So that makes Addison kind of

625
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:50,160
Speaker 3: a do or die home run dart throw kind of

626
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:55,680
Speaker 3: player against the defense, allowing the highest rate of explosive

627
00:31:55,800 --> 00:32:00,080
Speaker 3: plays over the past five weeks. Cornerback DJ Turner is

628
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,320
Speaker 3: allowed the tenth most yards per game among all cornerbacks.

629
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:07,720
Speaker 3: Mullins can pass downfield. So Addison, who was giving you

630
00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:10,480
Speaker 3: some deep ball production in the early parts of the

631
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:12,880
Speaker 3: season with Kirk Cousins, could snap back here with a

632
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 3: decent game and he's startable. With a C grade for

633
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:18,120
Speaker 3: Mullins himself, I've got a segrade on him. If I've

634
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,520
Speaker 3: got an A on Hockinson, a B on Jefferson, a

635
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:23,520
Speaker 3: SEA on Addison, i can't give a bench grade to

636
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:25,480
Speaker 3: Nick Mullins. I've got to presume he's going to be

637
00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 3: okay here. Every Bengals opposing quarterback has either scored or

638
00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:32,960
Speaker 3: top three hundred passing yards or both, every one of

639
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 3: them when last starting, which was a while ago. For

640
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:38,760
Speaker 3: Nick Mullins, as I mentioned, the deep ball was his

641
00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:41,560
Speaker 3: best was his best asset, and I think he's gonna

642
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:44,560
Speaker 3: get some deep connections here. So a C grade on

643
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:46,840
Speaker 3: Nick Mullins. Let's go over to the Bengals side. I'm

644
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:50,360
Speaker 3: gonna start with the running game. Brutal matchup for Joe

645
00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:55,040
Speaker 3: Mixon non DeAndre Swift runners averaging three point two yards

646
00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:58,440
Speaker 3: per carry against Minnesota. If that were apply to a

647
00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:02,240
Speaker 3: full season. If you know DeAndre Swift, that performance didn't exist,

648
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 3: the Vikings would be the best run defense in the league.

649
00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:08,600
Speaker 3: They also allow only zero point three touchdowns per game

650
00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:13,200
Speaker 3: ground and air to opposing running backs. Similar or even

651
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,719
Speaker 3: better runners than Joe Mixon have been just silenced by

652
00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:21,480
Speaker 3: Minnesota recently, including Josh Jacobs, Javonte Williams, Alvin Kamara, Aaron

653
00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:24,480
Speaker 3: Jones all dud games in recent weeks against the Vikings.

654
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:28,200
Speaker 3: But Mixon can catch, and the Vikings are getting dinged

655
00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:31,400
Speaker 3: through the air. They've been giving up eight receptions per

656
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:34,800
Speaker 3: game to opposing runners over the last three weeks. One

657
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 3: matchup to watch Brian Minnesota Vikings linebacker Ivan Pace. You're

658
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:45,640
Speaker 3: reigning defensive player of the week. He's undrafted, right, undrafted, insane.

659
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 3: He has a homecoming game in Cincinnati on his birthday.

660
00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:58,280
Speaker 3: What do you think of that doubleheader defensive homecoming birthday? Yeah?

661
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:00,920
Speaker 4: I wish I was a more id leagues right now?

662
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:03,200
Speaker 3: Okay, Joe Mix and c Grade. Let's go to the

663
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:08,160
Speaker 3: passing game. Obviously, Jake Browning's been It's a fantastic story,

664
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:13,520
Speaker 3: including a league high eighty eight percent adjusted completion percentage

665
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:16,000
Speaker 3: over the last three weeks. But this is a tricky matchup.

666
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 3: Vikings are ranked fourth in pass coverage by Pro Football Focus,

667
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:24,799
Speaker 3: and they've surrendered multiple passing touchdowns in only two of

668
00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:27,600
Speaker 3: their last eight games. During that span, they've allowed just

669
00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:32,080
Speaker 3: six passing touchdowns to nine interceptions. Now, Browning's rushing might help.

670
00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:35,360
Speaker 3: He's a and that's something. He is a good scrambler

671
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:36,880
Speaker 3: and he could help out a little bit that way.

672
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:38,680
Speaker 3: But I can only get you to a B grade

673
00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 3: on Browning. I consider to see here, but I think

674
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 3: there might be enough between rushing and passing to get

675
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,400
Speaker 3: him up to a B grade. Speaking of B grades,

676
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:49,560
Speaker 3: Jamar Chase. Even with last week's doug he's still averaging

677
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,360
Speaker 3: a solid eighty six yards under Browning. And despite the

678
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,879
Speaker 3: Vikings d dominating week offenses the last three weeks, lee

679
00:34:55,920 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 3: wide receivers are still doing okay. Cam Sutton six yards

680
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:03,080
Speaker 3: in a score, DJ Moore one hundred and fourteen yards

681
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:07,319
Speaker 3: on eleven catches. Adams DeVante Adams fifty three yards on

682
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:10,360
Speaker 3: seven catches seven catches. Good. So yeah, it feels like

683
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:12,239
Speaker 3: a be great for Chase. He says he's the best

684
00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:13,560
Speaker 3: receiver in this game.

685
00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:16,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, he was asked, I'm gonna paraphrase a little, but

686
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:19,799
Speaker 4: you know, you and former LSU teammate Justin Jefferson are

687
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:21,880
Speaker 4: the two best receivers. What do you think about that?

688
00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:23,680
Speaker 4: And he's like, no, I'm the best, the best, I'm

689
00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:25,280
Speaker 4: the best. Here you go, it's gonna be quite the showdown.

690
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:25,880
Speaker 4: I'm excited.

691
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a little bolt boarding material. Oh yeah for

692
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:31,960
Speaker 3: Justin Jefferson. T higgins last touchdown was.

693
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:38,879
Speaker 4: Anybody twenty twenty two, almost week two, week two, week two.

694
00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:41,560
Speaker 3: I got the two part right, Yeah, you're close. Browning

695
00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:44,200
Speaker 3: just doesn't seem to have that rapport for any of

696
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:48,160
Speaker 3: his receivers outside of Jamar Chase. Higgins has just two

697
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 3: and three catches in his two games with Browning. Outside

698
00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:55,560
Speaker 3: spots can pay dividends. Against Minnesota, he'd face up against

699
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:57,879
Speaker 3: the Caleb Evans and Byron Murphy, and you know those

700
00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:01,719
Speaker 3: are favorable matchups. Murphy's allowed the third most touchdowns of

701
00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:04,520
Speaker 3: all cornerbacks, so I've got to see great on Higgins.

702
00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,359
Speaker 3: But honestly, his past production would not suggest that that's

703
00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:08,439
Speaker 3: even possible. Here.

704
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:10,960
Speaker 5: All right, let's get into this IRV Smith revenge game.

705
00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:15,080
Speaker 3: We're not gonna do that I know. I mentioned Browning

706
00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:17,799
Speaker 3: does love his tight ends. Tanner Hudson is if you're

707
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:20,359
Speaker 3: in a real pinch, that is a possibility. He doesn't

708
00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:24,840
Speaker 3: love Smith, No, nobody loves Smith. Tyler Boyd's on the bench.

709
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:27,200
Speaker 3: He's done nothing with Browning, and the Vikings are top

710
00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:31,359
Speaker 3: ten and stopping opposing slot receivers. Chase Brown I love

711
00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:33,080
Speaker 3: what we're seeing in splashes of use, but he's not

712
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,960
Speaker 3: getting enough carries and the matchup's difficult. We're gonna talk

713
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:38,680
Speaker 3: more about Chase Brown later in the show. Let's go

714
00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:40,400
Speaker 3: to the Giants taking on these Saints.

715
00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:44,680
Speaker 4: Brian Yeah, well, dive right into the passing game real

716
00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:47,440
Speaker 4: quick again. Tommy Devitos might take a chance on me quarterback.

717
00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 4: He's gonna be a spicy meet the ball in this one.

718
00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:51,719
Speaker 4: I like Windel Robinson. He's might take a chance on me.

719
00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:55,560
Speaker 4: Wide receiver. Darren Waller expects to play. But you can't

720
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 4: trust Darren Waller to finish the game.

721
00:36:57,800 --> 00:36:59,160
Speaker 3: No, I need to see a full game.

722
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:02,000
Speaker 4: So he is on the bench. But Sakwon Barkley is

723
00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:05,040
Speaker 4: not going to give Barkley an a. He's looking great

724
00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:07,440
Speaker 4: as of late, and the Saints run defense has not

725
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:10,239
Speaker 4: looked great. Over their last three games, New Orleans has

726
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:13,840
Speaker 4: surrendered five hundred and twenty three combo yards and three

727
00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:16,680
Speaker 4: total touchdowns to running backs. Again, that's over the last

728
00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:19,640
Speaker 4: three games. That's what one hundred and seventy combo yards

729
00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:20,840
Speaker 4: per game they're allowing.

730
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:23,480
Speaker 3: That's their last three. That's shocking for the Saints that

731
00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 3: normally have a pretty good Yeah, they've fallen off big time.

732
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:29,160
Speaker 4: So I love Barkley this week with the A over

733
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,600
Speaker 4: to the Saints side, I love their running back not

734
00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:34,839
Speaker 4: quite as much as Barkley, So Alvin Kamara just to

735
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:38,279
Speaker 4: be Since Week nine, New York has allowed the fifth

736
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:41,399
Speaker 4: most rushing yards per game, the third highest explosive run rate,

737
00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:44,400
Speaker 4: and the fourth highest yards after.

738
00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:45,680
Speaker 3: Contact per attempt.

739
00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:49,839
Speaker 4: But you know, Barkley, I'm sorry, Yeah, Kamara, it's really

740
00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:52,520
Speaker 4: more about the the air production for him, and the

741
00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:55,240
Speaker 4: Giants have only started one receiving touchdown to running backs.

742
00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:59,400
Speaker 4: But Kamara is not your stereotypical receiving back. His sixty

743
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:05,160
Speaker 4: three catch are top fifteen among wide receivers, not running backs.

744
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:07,640
Speaker 4: But I just don't see that the a ceiling for Kamara.

745
00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:10,360
Speaker 4: So I'm gonna give him a B in this matchup

746
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,920
Speaker 4: over to the wide receivers. It gets a little dicey here.

747
00:38:14,000 --> 00:38:18,239
Speaker 4: Chris o'lave. He hasn't practiced all week. They're still calling

748
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:19,440
Speaker 4: him time questionable.

749
00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:22,600
Speaker 3: If he plays, I will give him a C. If

750
00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:23,240
Speaker 3: he's active.

751
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 4: The Giants are allowing nearly fifteen catches, one hundred and

752
00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 4: eighty yards and a touchdown per game to opposing wide receivers.

753
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,799
Speaker 4: Those are good numbers for the opposition. So that's why,

754
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:35,759
Speaker 4: like Rashid Shaheed, either way he gets a CEE is

755
00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:39,880
Speaker 4: expected to make his return from injury. So see for Shaheed,

756
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:42,839
Speaker 4: see for a Lave. If he plays, if a Lave

757
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:47,840
Speaker 4: doesn't play, I'm so close to giving Lynn Bowden a C.

758
00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:53,560
Speaker 3: But he's more of your age at at what at Perry, No,

759
00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:55,000
Speaker 3: not at Perry.

760
00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:59,040
Speaker 4: Lynn Bowden has been seeing running more routes, seeing more targets,

761
00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:01,080
Speaker 4: all of that, so but I'm still gonna keep him

762
00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:03,720
Speaker 4: on the bench. But he's a He's a DFS start

763
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:06,360
Speaker 4: for you out there, for you daily players. Lynn Bowden

764
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:08,640
Speaker 4: probably in your bare minimum. I like him as a

765
00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:12,080
Speaker 4: cheap option. Taysom Hill expected to make his return to

766
00:39:12,239 --> 00:39:15,440
Speaker 4: but there's there's no analysis you can do on Taysom Hill.

767
00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:18,400
Speaker 4: It's just like you plug him in and pray. So

768
00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:21,759
Speaker 4: I'm not a very religious guy, so he's on the

769
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:25,319
Speaker 4: bench for me, as is deres Tark the end to

770
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:25,920
Speaker 4: each of the room.

771
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:29,080
Speaker 3: Though, all right, Happy holidays, Denver. Bronco's taking on the

772
00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:32,799
Speaker 3: Detroit Lions. I like parts of this Broncos passing game.

773
00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:35,759
Speaker 3: Thor you already told us that Jerry Judy was you

774
00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 3: to take a chance on me wide receiver. What do

775
00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:40,879
Speaker 3: you think about Russell Wilson in this one? I like him.

776
00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:42,919
Speaker 5: I did too. I'm gonna give him a bee.

777
00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:45,640
Speaker 6: I did flirt with an a on but I'm gonna

778
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:48,799
Speaker 6: stick with the b So the last five games for

779
00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:51,160
Speaker 6: Russell Wilson, He's number two in the NFL and highly

780
00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:54,080
Speaker 6: accurate throw rate, but a part of that is because

781
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:57,240
Speaker 6: the offense is skewed super conservative to help out the defense.

782
00:39:57,280 --> 00:39:59,879
Speaker 6: One of the reasons that the Broncos have been playing better.

783
00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:02,760
Speaker 6: The Broncos haven't thrown for two hundred yards in seven

784
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:05,560
Speaker 6: of their last nine games because of that, and eight

785
00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:08,480
Speaker 6: of the last nine Bronco games have gone under the total.

786
00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:11,480
Speaker 6: In Vegas, so you don't get as much scoring, but

787
00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:13,880
Speaker 6: there is an opportunity for a huge game here for

788
00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 6: dangerous script. The game script looks like it could be

789
00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:19,399
Speaker 6: a shootout, and Russell is going to have to throw

790
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:21,959
Speaker 6: certainly more than he has been. And I mentioned before

791
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:25,359
Speaker 6: the Lions pass defense has been badly struggling since Week nine.

792
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:28,120
Speaker 6: That pass defense sixth worst in the NFL and allowing

793
00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:31,720
Speaker 6: passing touchdowns and they've given up the third highest passer

794
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:35,520
Speaker 6: rating in the NFL. I give Javonte Williams a see

795
00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:38,240
Speaker 6: in this one. He's the RB twenty nine and fantasy

796
00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:39,160
Speaker 6: points per game.

797
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:40,160
Speaker 3: Because he hasn't scored.

798
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:43,280
Speaker 6: Doesn't score, Yeah, he does get the solid workload, especially

799
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:45,960
Speaker 6: last three weeks, been playing sixty to seventy percent of

800
00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:48,439
Speaker 6: the snaps. Not as good of a matchup for him

801
00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:50,800
Speaker 6: against what is a much tougher Lions run defense. On

802
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:53,960
Speaker 6: their pass defense, Lions have a high tackling have high

803
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:56,799
Speaker 6: tackling efficiency numbers. They're also number eight and stuff rate

804
00:40:56,880 --> 00:40:59,680
Speaker 6: since the midway point of this season, Cortland Sutton. I

805
00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:03,080
Speaker 6: give him an a Cortland Sutton against single high coverage

806
00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:05,400
Speaker 6: this year, his first redshare jumps all the way up

807
00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:07,920
Speaker 6: to twenty eight percent. Lions are number six in the

808
00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:09,880
Speaker 6: NFL in single I coverage. I was talking about that

809
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:12,600
Speaker 6: with Judy since the midway point of the season. This

810
00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:14,759
Speaker 6: is also a great matchup for Sutton, same way that

811
00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:18,160
Speaker 6: it was for Judy. Sutton of course on the outside,

812
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:20,040
Speaker 6: but the Lion's boundary cornerback stink.

813
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:20,720
Speaker 5: Cameron.

814
00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:22,839
Speaker 6: Sutton has given up one hundred and three passer rating

815
00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:25,439
Speaker 6: this year, Jerry Jacob's given up one hundred and eight

816
00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:29,000
Speaker 6: passer rating against on targets this year, and the Lions

817
00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:31,560
Speaker 6: of AE as a team have allowed the most PPR

818
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:35,040
Speaker 6: points per target to perimeter wide receivers since week nine.

819
00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:36,640
Speaker 5: Love Courtland Sutton this week.

820
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:38,759
Speaker 3: I do too. I'm with you. I, you and I

821
00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:41,000
Speaker 3: are in lockstep on every one of those players for

822
00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 3: the Broncos. Love it.

823
00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:44,560
Speaker 5: Jared Goff moving over to the lines. I give him

824
00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:44,800
Speaker 5: a c.

825
00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:48,560
Speaker 6: His volume is dipped here in recent weeks as the

826
00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:51,400
Speaker 6: turnovers have gone up a bit. Goff only has an

827
00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:54,000
Speaker 6: average of thirty attempts to the last two games, and

828
00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:57,200
Speaker 6: this is not a great matchup for him. Since Week nine,

829
00:41:57,239 --> 00:42:00,319
Speaker 6: the Broncos have allowed the fourth lowest passer rating and

830
00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:03,839
Speaker 6: giving up the second fewest passing touchdowns. I'm honorous saying

831
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:05,600
Speaker 6: brown in part for this reason, I had to toggle

832
00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:08,480
Speaker 6: him down to a B this week. Wide receiver five

833
00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:11,920
Speaker 6: in Fantasy overall season long, but rough game last week,

834
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:15,160
Speaker 6: as you guys know, only twenty one receiving yards. Another

835
00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:18,840
Speaker 6: down game is coming here. Broncos pass defense. They've allowed

836
00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:21,560
Speaker 6: the lowest PPR points per target to opposing slots, so

837
00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:24,520
Speaker 6: they're particularly good against opposing slots, but a good pass

838
00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:28,560
Speaker 6: defense in general. Sam Laporta Sammy ball game, my boy

839
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:32,319
Speaker 6: a always tight end three and fantasy points per game

840
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:35,040
Speaker 6: and an awesome matchup for him too. Broncos are dead

841
00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:38,200
Speaker 6: last in the NFL against tight ends. Sam Laporte is

842
00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:40,719
Speaker 6: going off this week. Denver, by the way, you know,

843
00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:42,640
Speaker 6: you were talking about the other defense as far as

844
00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:43,239
Speaker 6: those tight ends.

845
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:46,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, the Bengals, they've given up the most yards. I

846
00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:48,840
Speaker 3: believe Denver's giving up the most fantasy points exactly.

847
00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:49,080
Speaker 5: Yeah.

848
00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:51,520
Speaker 6: And Denver's allowed ten straight tight ends to go over

849
00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:52,520
Speaker 6: thirty receiving yards.

850
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:54,919
Speaker 5: So you also have the flores falls and ceiling there.

851
00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:58,279
Speaker 6: David Montgomery, I'm giving David Montgomery in a as well.

852
00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:01,320
Speaker 6: Just like ballgame, Montgomery, you have scored a touchdown every

853
00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:05,040
Speaker 6: game he has finished healthy except for one. There's an opportunity,

854
00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:07,600
Speaker 6: of course, for him to score multiple touchdowns in this game.

855
00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:08,000
Speaker 3: There is.

856
00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:10,000
Speaker 5: This also feels like a twenty plus.

857
00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:14,400
Speaker 6: Carry game for Montgomery, and contextually Broncos ranked dead last

858
00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:17,160
Speaker 6: with twenty six Fantasy points per game allowed to opposing

859
00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:20,719
Speaker 6: running backs. I give Jamer Gibbs a B. He's averaging

860
00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:23,320
Speaker 6: eighty three total yards since week ten. The Lion staff

861
00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:25,880
Speaker 6: has figured out how to start using him, get him

862
00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:28,600
Speaker 6: out in space and everything like that, five plus targets

863
00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:30,800
Speaker 6: in the receiving game in three of the last five games.

864
00:43:31,040 --> 00:43:33,239
Speaker 6: The explosive players are coming for Gibbs here. I think

865
00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:36,480
Speaker 6: Broncos are at bottom ten defense in allowing explosive runs.

866
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:37,280
Speaker 5: We'll give him a bee.

867
00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:39,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, that sounds about it sounds about right. I have

868
00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:41,600
Speaker 3: a's on both of those guys, just the way you

869
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:44,400
Speaker 3: beat the Broncos on the ground all control. I can

870
00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:46,400
Speaker 3: see both of them having a big game. Jimior Gibbs

871
00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:50,279
Speaker 3: chips and some receptions. Montgomery scores some rushing touchdowns.

872
00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:50,839
Speaker 2: Ah.

873
00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:53,200
Speaker 3: I think they're both sitting on really nice games.

874
00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:55,120
Speaker 6: Here, and their offense have been skewing that way anyway,

875
00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:56,359
Speaker 6: So I totally agree.

876
00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:58,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, absolutely. Hey, if you'm miasicitedly part of the show,

900
00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:22,600
Speaker 3: All right, let's get into the three tough questions we

901
00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:23,600
Speaker 3: encourage you to play along.

902
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:25,879
Speaker 2: Tough question number one for.

903
00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:29,880
Speaker 3: Dynasty leaguers, give me somebody available that I can stash

904
00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:30,560
Speaker 3: for next year.

905
00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:34,839
Speaker 4: Brian, Yeah, there's obviously not a lot left out there

906
00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:37,880
Speaker 4: in most leagues, so I'm gonna go I'm gonna speak

907
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:43,040
Speaker 4: to the super flex or mandatory two quarterback dynasty leaguers

908
00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:47,800
Speaker 4: out there, unless you're in a super deep one. Hendon

909
00:45:47,920 --> 00:45:51,799
Speaker 4: Hooker should be available. Rookie quarterback for the Lions out

910
00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:54,880
Speaker 4: of Tennessee, basically didn't play all year for because of

911
00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:56,799
Speaker 4: a knee injury. I almost want to put Thor on

912
00:45:56,800 --> 00:45:59,040
Speaker 4: the spot because he knows a lot more about Hooker

913
00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:01,200
Speaker 4: than I do. But I'm not saying he's gonna take

914
00:46:01,320 --> 00:46:03,719
Speaker 4: Jared Goff's job, or it's going to be a quarterback

915
00:46:03,719 --> 00:46:06,239
Speaker 4: competition going to the next season. But you never know

916
00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:09,840
Speaker 4: what could happen to Goff and Hooker. Would Hooker have

917
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:12,399
Speaker 4: been a first second round pick if not for the injury, Thor,

918
00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:14,439
Speaker 4: I think it would have been a second. So why

919
00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:16,640
Speaker 4: not stash him and just see what happens in your

920
00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:17,560
Speaker 4: two quarterback leagues.

921
00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:19,759
Speaker 3: He should be available, all right, he is. I like

922
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:22,480
Speaker 3: the availability part of that, all right, Thor, give me

923
00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:26,160
Speaker 3: a dynasty for dynasty leaguers. Give me somebody who's largely

924
00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:28,319
Speaker 3: available that I can pick up and stash for next year.

925
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:30,279
Speaker 6: I'm also going to go with the guy who got

926
00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:33,320
Speaker 6: drafted in April. I'm going with Jets running back Israel

927
00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:35,960
Speaker 6: Abana Conda for this one. I think he could be

928
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:39,719
Speaker 6: the twenty twenty four Rico Daudo abound A Conda, a

929
00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:42,399
Speaker 6: two hundred and sixteen pounder who had a nine point

930
00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:46,600
Speaker 6: six RATS in otherwids tested ninety six size adjusted percentile

931
00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:49,480
Speaker 6: coming in. He's also a home run hitter. I mean,

932
00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:52,960
Speaker 6: like his calling card is speed. I comped him in

933
00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:56,439
Speaker 6: the pre draft process that Tevin Coleman. Very similar game,

934
00:46:56,520 --> 00:46:58,680
Speaker 6: Like they both run upright, they get you know, once

935
00:46:58,680 --> 00:47:01,000
Speaker 6: they get into space, it's just they're looking for that

936
00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:03,640
Speaker 6: straight line to the goal line and then they just

937
00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:06,240
Speaker 6: want to run as fast as they can. A Bona

938
00:47:06,320 --> 00:47:08,799
Speaker 6: Konda is likely to be the one be back in

939
00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:11,279
Speaker 6: the Jets backfield next year because Dalvin Cook is a

940
00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:14,880
Speaker 6: free agent. Breece Hall will be RB one in that scenario.

941
00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:17,400
Speaker 6: Obviously Breeze went down then if he would be getting

942
00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:20,400
Speaker 6: the bell call role. But I would also say Nathaniel

943
00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:23,520
Speaker 6: Hackett historically has used two running backs. Yeah, good point,

944
00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:25,799
Speaker 6: So a Bona Conna could factor in there. And by

945
00:47:25,840 --> 00:47:27,560
Speaker 6: the way, it's going to be a Jets offense that

946
00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:30,399
Speaker 6: is way, way way better next year because mister Aaron

947
00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:32,680
Speaker 6: Rodgers is coming back and Zach Wilson's going to be

948
00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:35,759
Speaker 6: banished again. So I really like a Bona Coonda For

949
00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:36,719
Speaker 6: Dynasty guys.

950
00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:39,239
Speaker 3: That's an interesting angle. You're kind of selling you that

951
00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:42,120
Speaker 3: they cut Michael Carter, So you know that tells me.

952
00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:44,680
Speaker 3: That tells me that they like Izzy for sure. For

953
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:48,040
Speaker 3: my answer and we'll call it the correct answer. Well, first,

954
00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:49,719
Speaker 3: Jill Any Woods, who I talk about all the time.

955
00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:52,840
Speaker 3: You know, it's a tragically lost season for him with

956
00:47:52,920 --> 00:47:58,600
Speaker 3: a multiple re injuries to his hamstring, but ultimately Cincinnati

957
00:47:58,680 --> 00:48:01,560
Speaker 3: running back Chase Brown looks great. You know in college

958
00:48:01,600 --> 00:48:05,040
Speaker 3: we saw a compact runner with great balance footwork. He

959
00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:07,240
Speaker 3: had a little bit of burst last year to Illinois,

960
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:12,200
Speaker 3: Brown ranked second in the country with forty eight explosive plays.

961
00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:15,080
Speaker 3: And we've learned about Brown thanks for his recent upchick

962
00:48:15,200 --> 00:48:19,480
Speaker 3: upticking usage in Cincinnati almost five yards per carry. Dude

963
00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:21,760
Speaker 3: can catch, you know, he caught a bit at Illinois

964
00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:24,279
Speaker 3: as well. He can catch, and you get him into

965
00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:26,799
Speaker 3: space and you got a problem on your hands. Kind

966
00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:28,400
Speaker 3: of like Chase Brown here. If you believe like me,

967
00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:32,880
Speaker 3: Joe Mixon is just like slowly faltering. We don't know.

968
00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:34,719
Speaker 3: It's mix and status for next year, you might not

969
00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:36,759
Speaker 3: even be on this team. Chase Brown could be the

970
00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:39,000
Speaker 3: lead running back for the Bengals with a Joe Burrow

971
00:48:39,080 --> 00:48:40,280
Speaker 3: led offense next season.

972
00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:43,080
Speaker 6: He's a home run hitter for sure. Nine point eight

973
00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:45,520
Speaker 6: ras for Chase Brown in the process this year.

974
00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:47,720
Speaker 3: All right, like that, we'll call that correct.

975
00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:50,719
Speaker 2: An tough question Number two, what's.

976
00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:54,640
Speaker 3: The right tie breaker in the playoffs for two teams

977
00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:55,240
Speaker 3: that tie?

978
00:48:55,840 --> 00:49:00,279
Speaker 6: We begin with thor so I go by standings this

979
00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:03,400
Speaker 6: because I feel like regular season, Yeah, the regular season standings,

980
00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:05,200
Speaker 6: because I feel like the team that finished higher in

981
00:49:05,200 --> 00:49:08,000
Speaker 6: the standings you have the fact a home field advantage, ergo,

982
00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:10,680
Speaker 6: you would get the tiebreaker on this one, so by

983
00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:12,560
Speaker 6: record first them by point score.

984
00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:15,399
Speaker 5: That's always my default tie breaker after record.

985
00:49:15,239 --> 00:49:18,279
Speaker 3: Brian, what's the right tiebreaker for the playoffs when two

986
00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:19,600
Speaker 3: teams have the same score.

987
00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:22,760
Speaker 4: I used to be a points guy because I always

988
00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:25,839
Speaker 4: thought overall points was more indicative of how good your

989
00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:28,640
Speaker 4: team is as opposed to a regular season record where you.

990
00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:30,080
Speaker 3: Can get lucky or unlucky.

991
00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:32,480
Speaker 4: But I'm going to go the route, and I'm not

992
00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:34,239
Speaker 4: in any of these leagues I wish I was, at

993
00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:37,160
Speaker 4: least don't think I am. But with the highest scoring

994
00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:39,799
Speaker 4: bench player. If we were to tie in our week

995
00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:43,880
Speaker 4: fifteen matchup, it's sort of like a hybrid best ball approach,

996
00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:46,320
Speaker 4: So I would go by the highest scoring bench player.

997
00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:48,960
Speaker 4: I feel in the fair Unless you're playing in like

998
00:49:49,080 --> 00:49:52,080
Speaker 4: whole point leagues, it's still hard to tie, but it's

999
00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:54,840
Speaker 4: in edge case scenario. But if it happens, I'm going

1000
00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:56,040
Speaker 4: with the highest scoring bench player.

1001
00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:59,560
Speaker 3: The most important thing is to have an established tie breaker.

1002
00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:02,120
Speaker 3: You probably don't know what Most leagues now score to

1003
00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:04,200
Speaker 3: the hundreds place, so it's uncommon. It used to be

1004
00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:08,360
Speaker 3: very common. But here's the thing. I've seen friendships end

1005
00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:12,319
Speaker 3: over tie breakers in the playoffs because your league didn't

1006
00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:15,399
Speaker 3: have a tie breakers set up, it's a bad deal.

1007
00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:19,720
Speaker 3: So establish your tiebreaker now if you haven't already now.

1008
00:50:20,040 --> 00:50:23,200
Speaker 3: I don't like any tiebreaker involves backups, because your backups

1009
00:50:23,239 --> 00:50:25,600
Speaker 3: aren't necessarily there to score points for you. For example,

1010
00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:28,320
Speaker 3: if I've got mix in, I want to Chase Brown handcuff,

1011
00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:31,719
Speaker 3: and that's the reason Chase Brown's on my team. I

1012
00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:34,239
Speaker 3: remember one year, years ago when I wasn't a whole

1013
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:38,239
Speaker 3: points scoring league that we used backups, and so in

1014
00:50:38,360 --> 00:50:40,920
Speaker 3: the championship game, I dropped everybody and just had kickers.

1015
00:50:41,080 --> 00:50:43,239
Speaker 3: I just had nothing but kickers as my backups to

1016
00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:45,640
Speaker 3: get your points, you know, out of my backups. I mean,

1017
00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:49,120
Speaker 3: it's just I and the backups. Again, don't like the

1018
00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:53,080
Speaker 3: backups the regular season, so throwor to your point, the

1019
00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:55,480
Speaker 3: better team was established over the course of the season.

1020
00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:58,440
Speaker 3: The regular season record the winning percentage of the overall points.

1021
00:50:58,800 --> 00:51:02,000
Speaker 3: But that tells me who was better, not who is

1022
00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:06,759
Speaker 3: is better. So to me, it's all about the starters.

1023
00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:09,000
Speaker 3: I don't like the backups. I like the regular season.

1024
00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:12,120
Speaker 3: I give you the starters in this game this week,

1025
00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:14,279
Speaker 3: So how can I measure when we've already tied Thor

1026
00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:16,440
Speaker 3: and I have already tied. How can we do it?

1027
00:51:17,480 --> 00:51:21,640
Speaker 3: I use most yards of your starters. If you play

1028
00:51:21,640 --> 00:51:23,600
Speaker 3: with the kicker and defense, just throw those out. Most

1029
00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:25,799
Speaker 3: leagues don't anymore. If you do, just throw those out

1030
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:27,960
Speaker 3: most yards between my starters. Because I'm trying to make

1031
00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:29,839
Speaker 3: the best starting lineup, Thors, trying to make the best

1032
00:51:29,840 --> 00:51:32,800
Speaker 3: starting lineup. Whoever had the most yards, You've got the

1033
00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:33,640
Speaker 3: best team this week?

1034
00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:35,760
Speaker 2: Got tough question number three.

1035
00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:39,799
Speaker 4: That's too much math for me, it's too much math

1036
00:51:39,880 --> 00:51:40,120
Speaker 4: for you.

1037
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:44,120
Speaker 3: Wow, did you go to Arizona State? Is this an

1038
00:51:44,160 --> 00:51:46,040
Speaker 3: English Major? Sky? You?

1039
00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:46,160
Speaker 1: MA?

1040
00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:52,960
Speaker 3: Should should higher seeded playoff teams be allowed to pick

1041
00:51:53,280 --> 00:51:58,399
Speaker 3: their opponents? Back to Brian first for this one. No,

1042
00:52:00,719 --> 00:52:03,040
Speaker 3: do you get to pick whoever you want to play? No,

1043
00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:04,440
Speaker 3: this is weird to me.

1044
00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:07,799
Speaker 4: Initi was like, I'm not in a league like this,

1045
00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:09,920
Speaker 4: and then I realized, I am in a league like this,

1046
00:52:10,440 --> 00:52:12,399
Speaker 4: and we're in the same league. It's a Best Ball

1047
00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:15,160
Speaker 4: Empire league, and I am buying for the number one seed,

1048
00:52:15,520 --> 00:52:18,680
Speaker 4: So I guess I'll gladly pick my opponent.

1049
00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:21,799
Speaker 3: But I don't know. It's just it's a little too

1050
00:52:22,719 --> 00:52:25,319
Speaker 3: it's too far off the tracks. For me, whatever analogy,

1051
00:52:25,400 --> 00:52:26,680
Speaker 3: metaphor you want to use.

1052
00:52:26,920 --> 00:52:30,600
Speaker 4: Just basically, no, I think it's kind of bizarre, but hey,

1053
00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:33,440
Speaker 4: I'll take advantage of it if it presented the opportunity.

1054
00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:36,600
Speaker 3: But overall I'm against it. I remember when PPR was

1055
00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:38,879
Speaker 3: too far off the tracks for people. All right, thor

1056
00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:43,160
Speaker 3: should higher seeded playoff teams be allowed to pick their opponents?

1057
00:52:43,840 --> 00:52:46,640
Speaker 6: So this is the first time I was ever confronted

1058
00:52:46,680 --> 00:52:48,760
Speaker 6: with this idea. I guess I play in two basic

1059
00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:52,440
Speaker 6: of leagues. This idea is incredible and it should be

1060
00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:56,080
Speaker 6: implemented everywhere for numerous different reasons. First of all, the

1061
00:52:56,200 --> 00:53:01,680
Speaker 6: shade potential is absolutely incredible. Number one, uh but but

1062
00:53:01,800 --> 00:53:04,480
Speaker 6: number two, I feel like the teams that finish at

1063
00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:06,000
Speaker 6: the top, who would have the first picks in it?

1064
00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:06,880
Speaker 5: They've earned that.

1065
00:53:06,920 --> 00:53:09,000
Speaker 6: Why wouldn't they get to pick their opponent? I I

1066
00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:11,480
Speaker 6: love the idea all the way around. All right, I

1067
00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:14,000
Speaker 6: have several thoughts. Your first, Okay, some people, the NFL

1068
00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:15,719
Speaker 6: doesn't work that way. You don't get I don't care.

1069
00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:18,440
Speaker 6: The NFL has nothing to do with this conversation. Yeah, honestly,

1070
00:53:18,520 --> 00:53:20,439
Speaker 6: this is you know, this is nothing. No two things alike.

1071
00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:24,520
Speaker 6: Second thing, I'm the number one seed. A lot of

1072
00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:26,279
Speaker 6: teams that A lot of times the team that you

1073
00:53:26,320 --> 00:53:29,080
Speaker 6: know rolled in as the sixth seed or whatever. However,

1074
00:53:29,120 --> 00:53:31,120
Speaker 6: man teams you got in, you know that team's hot

1075
00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:33,840
Speaker 6: right now. You know it's not like the sixth seed

1076
00:53:33,960 --> 00:53:37,560
Speaker 6: right now. It could often because oftentimes still a very

1077
00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:39,000
Speaker 6: very good team and not the team that I want

1078
00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:39,839
Speaker 6: to get matched up with.

1079
00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:43,640
Speaker 3: Yes, I love that it adds new strategy. Now I

1080
00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:46,160
Speaker 3: got to like go through all the lineups. I gotta

1081
00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:49,120
Speaker 3: do like projected outcomes. I got to try to figure

1082
00:53:49,120 --> 00:53:52,719
Speaker 3: out which which opponent is going to be worse and

1083
00:53:53,960 --> 00:53:57,759
Speaker 3: then if you still get it wrong. Oh that's why

1084
00:53:57,920 --> 00:53:59,839
Speaker 3: it's a given for me. I know it's I will

1085
00:54:00,200 --> 00:54:02,920
Speaker 3: picked the wrong team. So I don't want to pick

1086
00:54:02,520 --> 00:54:04,640
Speaker 3: the league Brian and I were talking about right now.

1087
00:54:04,640 --> 00:54:07,000
Speaker 3: It's an Empire League where if you win back to

1088
00:54:07,040 --> 00:54:09,200
Speaker 3: back years, you win this rolling pot and the whole

1089
00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:13,399
Speaker 3: thing ends. Last year, I'm in the championship and I've

1090
00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:14,880
Speaker 3: got I picked. I get to pick my opponent. It's

1091
00:54:14,880 --> 00:54:16,440
Speaker 3: a week before the championship. I guess, so I get

1092
00:54:16,440 --> 00:54:19,600
Speaker 3: to pick my opponent. I chose wrong, got the wrong team,

1093
00:54:19,719 --> 00:54:21,799
Speaker 3: knocked myself out or else I could, I would have

1094
00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:23,320
Speaker 3: won the I would have won the whole thing, and

1095
00:54:23,360 --> 00:54:25,799
Speaker 3: if nature just run its course, you would have been

1096
00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:29,120
Speaker 3: that champion. I don't know for sure, but probably I

1097
00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:31,520
Speaker 3: had a really good team. So anyway, I think it's

1098
00:54:31,520 --> 00:54:34,120
Speaker 3: super fun. It adds cool new strategy. It doesn't have

1099
00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:37,160
Speaker 3: to be like the NFL. Let's let those highest seated

1100
00:54:37,160 --> 00:54:38,360
Speaker 3: team pick their opponents.

1101
00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:41,520
Speaker 6: I have a clarification question, would they Would the second

1102
00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:43,960
Speaker 6: and third teams be guaranteed to pick or could the

1103
00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:46,560
Speaker 6: top team be Like I want the number two seed

1104
00:54:46,920 --> 00:54:47,319
Speaker 6: right away?

1105
00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:49,439
Speaker 3: Yeah? You could. Yeah, you could do that. Wow. Yeah,

1106
00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:51,560
Speaker 3: you don't have to pick like the SEP bottom half.

1107
00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:53,200
Speaker 3: You can pick anybody you want if you're a team won.

1108
00:54:53,360 --> 00:54:55,480
Speaker 3: I love this idea. It's super fun, isn't it. I

1109
00:54:55,560 --> 00:54:56,920
Speaker 3: love this. Yeah, it's a lot of fun. All right,

1110
00:54:57,080 --> 00:55:00,399
Speaker 3: let's get back to the matchups. Hey, it's me Bay

1111
00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:04,759
Speaker 3: taken on Green Bay. How about Shot White suddenly going

1112
00:55:04,880 --> 00:55:08,239
Speaker 3: bellcow on us? I did not see that coming. Over

1113
00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:11,879
Speaker 3: the past three weeks, he's averaging twenty carries and he's

1114
00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:15,120
Speaker 3: chipping in three receptions per game. He's scored in five

1115
00:55:15,160 --> 00:55:17,319
Speaker 3: of the six games. For a guy who was incapable

1116
00:55:17,320 --> 00:55:20,440
Speaker 3: of scoring last year and most of this year, Shot

1117
00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:23,800
Speaker 3: White turning it around. Green Bay has allowed six rushing

1118
00:55:23,840 --> 00:55:26,520
Speaker 3: touchdowns to running backs in their last five games. White

1119
00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:29,080
Speaker 3: will be aided by the loss of well potential loss

1120
00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:31,440
Speaker 3: of Packers linebacker Kay Walker if he can't go, We're

1121
00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:33,960
Speaker 3: going to monitor his status in this one. Packer's own

1122
00:55:34,000 --> 00:55:36,960
Speaker 3: of three teams to not allow a receiving touchdown to

1123
00:55:37,000 --> 00:55:40,080
Speaker 3: a running back this season, and their scoreless streak goes

1124
00:55:40,120 --> 00:55:42,480
Speaker 3: back nineteen games, so they've not given up a receiving

1125
00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:45,160
Speaker 3: touchdown for nineteen straight games. So White will not help

1126
00:55:45,239 --> 00:55:46,640
Speaker 3: us that way, and that's part of the way. I've

1127
00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:48,840
Speaker 3: got a B grade on White instead of an A

1128
00:55:49,000 --> 00:55:52,239
Speaker 3: grade on White. To the Packer game, Let's go start

1129
00:55:52,239 --> 00:55:55,960
Speaker 3: with Baker Mayfield. Even with quarterbacks Eric Stokes and Jay

1130
00:55:56,000 --> 00:55:58,720
Speaker 3: r Alexander injured and then green Bay traded away, Rasuell

1131
00:55:58,719 --> 00:56:01,239
Speaker 3: Douglas has been great with the bill. The Packers have

1132
00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:05,200
Speaker 3: held opposing passers in check almost every week. No passers

1133
00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:08,040
Speaker 3: top two scores all year. Only one is top two

1134
00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:11,640
Speaker 3: hundred and sixty yards on the season. Green Bay allowing

1135
00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:14,680
Speaker 3: the fourth lowest a dot average distance to throw at

1136
00:56:14,719 --> 00:56:19,680
Speaker 3: just seven and see. I just think Baker Mayfield's overall

1137
00:56:20,239 --> 00:56:25,600
Speaker 3: upside very limited against what's been a shockingly and shockingly

1138
00:56:25,840 --> 00:56:29,960
Speaker 3: competent Packers secondary despite a dearth of talent. Let's go

1139
00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:32,000
Speaker 3: to Mike Evans with a weird dud last week. That

1140
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:35,880
Speaker 3: doesn't make sense now unless Alexander Stokes come back. It

1141
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:39,200
Speaker 3: leaves the combo of Valentine and Valentine as you're outside

1142
00:56:39,239 --> 00:56:41,600
Speaker 3: cornerbacks once again, and they've been pretty bad over the

1143
00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:44,520
Speaker 3: last five weeks. They have bottom fifty PFF coverage grades,

1144
00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:47,480
Speaker 3: but they've only given up two scores between them and Evans'

1145
00:56:47,520 --> 00:56:50,000
Speaker 3: biggest values is a red zone target, where he's a

1146
00:56:50,080 --> 00:56:52,600
Speaker 3: top ten wide receiver target. I can only get you

1147
00:56:52,640 --> 00:56:55,720
Speaker 3: to a B grade on Evans in a weirdly tough matchup.

1148
00:56:56,320 --> 00:57:00,520
Speaker 3: Here's your sneaky play this week. Chris Godwin is a

1149
00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:03,200
Speaker 3: game time decision. He's got a knee injury practiced on Friday,

1150
00:57:03,239 --> 00:57:05,200
Speaker 3: but they have said there's still a decent chance he

1151
00:57:05,200 --> 00:57:10,600
Speaker 3: won't go. Trey Palmer Burner. Trey, is he ever a Burner? Now?

1152
00:57:10,640 --> 00:57:11,040
Speaker 5: He's been?

1153
00:57:11,120 --> 00:57:13,720
Speaker 3: He runs, He dominates the slot usage. He runs almost

1154
00:57:13,719 --> 00:57:16,520
Speaker 3: two thirds of his plays from the slot. Double the

1155
00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:20,840
Speaker 3: slot routes from Evans and Godwin. Packers are getting dominated

1156
00:57:20,840 --> 00:57:24,480
Speaker 3: by slot receivers, including when Dale Robinson last week went

1157
00:57:24,520 --> 00:57:27,720
Speaker 3: berserk on him. I'm on Rap Saint Brown before that,

1158
00:57:27,920 --> 00:57:31,400
Speaker 3: Keenan Allen before that. Slot receivers getting it out.

1159
00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:31,480
Speaker 2: Now.

1160
00:57:31,520 --> 00:57:33,600
Speaker 3: All those guys are are a lot more polished and

1161
00:57:33,640 --> 00:57:36,400
Speaker 3: experienced than Trey Palmer. But you could get a breakout

1162
00:57:36,440 --> 00:57:38,479
Speaker 3: game from him. And if you need a dart throw

1163
00:57:39,560 --> 00:57:42,400
Speaker 3: Trey Palmer, let's go to the Green Bay side. Jordan

1164
00:57:42,440 --> 00:57:44,400
Speaker 3: Love coming off a bad Monday Night game, but his

1165
00:57:44,560 --> 00:57:47,720
Speaker 3: prior three games are very good, and the Bucks secondary

1166
00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:51,520
Speaker 3: is the ideal recipe for a quick turnaround. The Bucks

1167
00:57:51,600 --> 00:57:54,960
Speaker 3: ranked thirty first and passing yards allowed twenty eighth and

1168
00:57:55,080 --> 00:57:58,720
Speaker 3: fantasy points allowed to quarterbacks. They ranked twenty seventh in

1169
00:57:58,800 --> 00:58:01,320
Speaker 3: covers by Pro Football Folk. They've given up a league

1170
00:58:01,360 --> 00:58:06,440
Speaker 3: worst six quarterback rushing touchdowns, and Love's mobility could definitely

1171
00:58:06,480 --> 00:58:09,360
Speaker 3: factor in here and augment this box score. Be great

1172
00:58:09,360 --> 00:58:13,360
Speaker 3: for Jordan Love. I'm starting Jordan Love over Patrick Mahomes

1173
00:58:13,640 --> 00:58:17,560
Speaker 3: in one of my guillotine leagues. Who that is gonna be?

1174
00:58:17,640 --> 00:58:21,439
Speaker 3: That's Love it if I if the ship goes down

1175
00:58:21,440 --> 00:58:23,520
Speaker 3: on that I'm gonna feel pretty bad. All right, Let's

1176
00:58:23,560 --> 00:58:27,840
Speaker 3: go to Jayden Reid and Romeo Dobs, both cornerbacks for Tampa.

1177
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:31,280
Speaker 3: Jamel Dean and Carlon Davis are questionable follow their status.

1178
00:58:31,480 --> 00:58:34,680
Speaker 3: That leaves something called Zion McCollum as the only healthy

1179
00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:37,880
Speaker 3: outside cornerback that plays meaningful snaps, and over the last

1180
00:58:37,880 --> 00:58:42,080
Speaker 3: five weeks, he's Pro Football Focus is fifteenth lowest graded cornerback.

1181
00:58:42,160 --> 00:58:44,880
Speaker 3: So I love the matchups here, and Reid's getting carries

1182
00:58:45,280 --> 00:58:48,360
Speaker 3: about one hundred yards of rushing work in the last month.

1183
00:58:49,080 --> 00:58:52,000
Speaker 3: Both Dobbs and Reads viable against a defense that ranks

1184
00:58:52,040 --> 00:58:55,400
Speaker 3: thirty first in yards allowed to the position. Drake London

1185
00:58:55,480 --> 00:58:58,720
Speaker 3: crushed Tampa last week. They've allowed five one one hundred

1186
00:58:58,800 --> 00:59:02,600
Speaker 3: yard receiving performances in their last six games. Game on

1187
00:59:02,840 --> 00:59:06,080
Speaker 3: Jaden Reed and Romeo Dobbs with B grades in this one.

1188
00:59:06,760 --> 00:59:09,400
Speaker 3: Christian Watson is not expected to play. He is doubtful.

1189
00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:12,360
Speaker 3: We don't think he's gonna go in this one. You

1190
00:59:12,400 --> 00:59:18,480
Speaker 3: could dart throw at at Wisntavious Wicks, but he's also

1191
00:59:18,520 --> 00:59:23,439
Speaker 3: not healthy. Malik Heath he scored last week. You want

1192
00:59:23,440 --> 00:59:25,760
Speaker 3: to go that far? Be my gad I don't now

1193
00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:27,520
Speaker 3: you know what you can't do very easily on Tampa's

1194
00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:30,400
Speaker 3: run the ball, and AJ Dillon's got groin injury, thumb injury,

1195
00:59:30,480 --> 00:59:32,560
Speaker 3: Aaron Jones is trying to come back from knee injury.

1196
00:59:32,720 --> 00:59:35,200
Speaker 3: It's all bad for me. Tampa's a good run defense,

1197
00:59:35,200 --> 00:59:37,439
Speaker 3: they're giving him just three point seven yards per carries

1198
00:59:37,480 --> 00:59:41,240
Speaker 3: since Week six, and even heavy volume backs are not

1199
00:59:41,320 --> 00:59:44,960
Speaker 3: getting any headway. Even if so, even if Dylan or

1200
00:59:45,080 --> 00:59:50,400
Speaker 3: Jones one or the other starts, it doesn't mean that

1201
00:59:50,440 --> 00:59:53,280
Speaker 3: they're gonna have any kind of productivity here. Dylan has

1202
00:59:53,400 --> 00:59:57,480
Speaker 3: zero top ten finishes this year in Fantasy, and he's

1203
00:59:57,600 --> 01:00:02,400
Speaker 3: his average finish. Get this. J Dillon's average Fantasy finish

1204
01:00:02,520 --> 01:00:06,320
Speaker 3: running back thirty one, and he's spend the lone starter.

1205
01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:09,760
Speaker 3: With Aaron Jones missing most of the year. Jones has

1206
01:00:09,800 --> 01:00:12,560
Speaker 3: only two games with more than eleven touches. And my

1207
01:00:12,720 --> 01:00:14,960
Speaker 3: fear is every time they give Aaron Jones a bunch

1208
01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:17,440
Speaker 3: of work, he gets hurt. So even if Dylan is out,

1209
01:00:17,680 --> 01:00:19,760
Speaker 3: I don't think they're gonna give Jones requisite work here,

1210
01:00:19,960 --> 01:00:20,880
Speaker 3: so he's on the bench too.

1211
01:00:21,160 --> 01:00:24,880
Speaker 4: I don't believe, and producer Brett would know, but I

1212
01:00:24,880 --> 01:00:27,400
Speaker 4: don't think the Packers have had all of their offensive

1213
01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:30,919
Speaker 4: weapons healthy for no, because Christian Watson missed Week one,

1214
01:00:31,040 --> 01:00:34,000
Speaker 4: Aaron Jones got hurt in Week one, and then ever

1215
01:00:34,040 --> 01:00:35,040
Speaker 4: since then it's been an.

1216
01:00:35,080 --> 01:00:39,000
Speaker 3: Offensive line span. Yeah, Luke Musgrave, he gets hurt at

1217
01:00:39,280 --> 01:00:41,680
Speaker 3: I have to scroll several times just to get through

1218
01:00:41,720 --> 01:00:44,480
Speaker 3: our injury report that way. Yeah, it's it's bad news.

1219
01:00:44,840 --> 01:00:49,000
Speaker 3: Next year, Packers are going to be a tough team.

1220
01:00:49,520 --> 01:00:49,720
Speaker 2: You know.

1221
01:00:49,800 --> 01:00:52,040
Speaker 3: Love's gonna get better. All the young receivers get better,

1222
01:00:52,040 --> 01:00:54,600
Speaker 3: they get into all the injuries of this year, it's

1223
01:00:54,880 --> 01:00:56,840
Speaker 3: they're gonna be They're gonna be a handful next year.

1224
01:00:57,040 --> 01:01:01,680
Speaker 3: When we come back San Francisco taking on the Arizona Cardinals.

1225
01:01:01,720 --> 01:01:04,720
Speaker 3: Deebo Samuel the highest scoring Fantasy wide receiver in the

1226
01:01:04,760 --> 01:01:07,840
Speaker 3: last month. Will it continue? He had a zero catch

1227
01:01:07,880 --> 01:01:11,040
Speaker 3: game last time these teams met. Find out when we

1228
01:01:11,080 --> 01:01:32,040
Speaker 3: come back. Welcome back Fantasy Football weekly playoff week. It's

1229
01:01:32,040 --> 01:01:36,560
Speaker 3: also rain week. Lookout for weather a pre kickoff. Anything

1230
01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:38,720
Speaker 3: on the East Coast is got weather. And then the

1231
01:01:38,800 --> 01:01:41,400
Speaker 3: Monday night er is shaping up in Seattle. Shocking, Seattle

1232
01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:44,400
Speaker 3: could have cold rain in December. It's even raining in Minnesota.

1233
01:01:45,600 --> 01:01:46,320
Speaker 3: In December.

1234
01:01:46,440 --> 01:01:49,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, you gotta look for the win to anything

1235
01:01:49,360 --> 01:01:52,720
Speaker 6: over twelve miles per hour statistically, data wise, going back years,

1236
01:01:52,760 --> 01:01:55,160
Speaker 6: it affects the passing game, and the higher you get up,

1237
01:01:55,240 --> 01:01:57,480
Speaker 6: closer you get to twenty, it starts to really get wonky.

1238
01:01:57,560 --> 01:02:00,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, we haven't had a snow situation yet this year,

1239
01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:02,560
Speaker 3: which is kind of a bomb. Marks that love snow games,

1240
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:05,360
Speaker 3: But you know, we talk about a lot. You know,

1241
01:02:05,560 --> 01:02:07,800
Speaker 3: rain and wind are are bigger threats a lot of

1242
01:02:07,800 --> 01:02:10,600
Speaker 3: times than snow, so you know it. You know they're

1243
01:02:10,600 --> 01:02:13,920
Speaker 3: all different, but SnO help offenses. In some cases they can.

1244
01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:16,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, there's a whole thing of the snow over, but

1245
01:02:16,320 --> 01:02:18,360
Speaker 6: you know we're going over on that because it's really

1246
01:02:18,400 --> 01:02:19,760
Speaker 6: hard for defenders to get their footing.

1247
01:02:19,840 --> 01:02:22,280
Speaker 4: Oh Lashawn McCoy had one of the most epic snow

1248
01:02:22,280 --> 01:02:25,600
Speaker 4: game performances of all time. I believe he's with Buffalo.

1249
01:02:25,640 --> 01:02:27,640
Speaker 4: It might have been with Philly. I think he's with

1250
01:02:27,680 --> 01:02:30,040
Speaker 4: Philly in Buffalo. It's like three feet of snow. No

1251
01:02:30,040 --> 01:02:31,320
Speaker 4: one's gonna do anything, but he went off.

1252
01:02:31,400 --> 01:02:34,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll never forget the Tom Brady like fifty two

1253
01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:38,040
Speaker 3: pointer he put up on Tennessee in a deep deep

1254
01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:40,040
Speaker 3: snow game where everybody was like, oh, I don't know

1255
01:02:40,040 --> 01:02:41,960
Speaker 3: if I could if I dare start any Patriots, and

1256
01:02:41,960 --> 01:02:44,240
Speaker 3: I just went berserk. And I think the Titans got

1257
01:02:44,240 --> 01:02:46,160
Speaker 3: shut out in that game. I would imagine Randy Moss

1258
01:02:46,200 --> 01:02:47,919
Speaker 3: helped out with that, right, it might have been that era.

1259
01:02:48,280 --> 01:02:52,080
Speaker 3: San Francisco takes on Arizona Brian and as I mentioned

1260
01:02:52,120 --> 01:02:55,720
Speaker 3: going into the break, Deebo Samuel played eighty five percent

1261
01:02:55,760 --> 01:02:58,000
Speaker 3: of the snaps and no catches in the first one.

1262
01:02:58,200 --> 01:03:01,520
Speaker 3: Now he comes in as Fantasy Ball's hottest receiver. Yeah,

1263
01:03:01,520 --> 01:03:02,240
Speaker 3: he's on fire.

1264
01:03:02,320 --> 01:03:05,960
Speaker 4: Going back a little further against the Cardinals over his

1265
01:03:06,040 --> 01:03:08,840
Speaker 4: last two games. So they did play once this year

1266
01:03:08,880 --> 01:03:11,240
Speaker 4: in Week four, San Francisco won thirty five to sixteen.

1267
01:03:11,560 --> 01:03:14,160
Speaker 4: That was the game Deebo had no catches, But across

1268
01:03:14,200 --> 01:03:17,040
Speaker 4: his last two games against the Cardinals, he's total two

1269
01:03:17,080 --> 01:03:20,440
Speaker 4: catches for twenty scoreless yards and four carries for ten

1270
01:03:20,480 --> 01:03:23,680
Speaker 4: scoreless yards. So history is not on Deebo's side right now.

1271
01:03:23,760 --> 01:03:26,840
Speaker 4: But you're not benching Deebo Samuel on the heater that

1272
01:03:26,880 --> 01:03:28,439
Speaker 4: he is on. So I got a B on him

1273
01:03:28,720 --> 01:03:31,040
Speaker 4: and a B on Brandon Ayukhu had six catches, one

1274
01:03:31,160 --> 01:03:33,600
Speaker 4: hundred and forty eight yards in the first meeting, and

1275
01:03:33,720 --> 01:03:38,400
Speaker 4: more recently, Ayuk has scored end or topped one hundred

1276
01:03:38,480 --> 01:03:41,480
Speaker 4: yards in six straight games. Wow, Ayuk is just an

1277
01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:45,520
Speaker 4: absolute steal draft a steal back in August, probably one

1278
01:03:45,520 --> 01:03:48,640
Speaker 4: of the top ones at wide receiver. Sticking with the

1279
01:03:48,720 --> 01:03:52,840
Speaker 4: passing game over to George Kittle, I almost gave him

1280
01:03:52,840 --> 01:03:54,280
Speaker 4: a seed, but I couldn't do it in the tight

1281
01:03:54,360 --> 01:03:56,520
Speaker 4: end wastelein. I'm gonna give Kittle a b But Kittle

1282
01:03:56,560 --> 01:03:59,640
Speaker 4: had just one catch for nine scoreless yards in the

1283
01:03:59,640 --> 01:04:02,760
Speaker 4: first meeting, and the Cardinals have held tight ends under

1284
01:04:02,880 --> 01:04:07,120
Speaker 4: forty yards and five straight games, but Arizona has surrendered

1285
01:04:07,120 --> 01:04:10,320
Speaker 4: four tight end touchdowns during that same five game span.

1286
01:04:10,440 --> 01:04:13,200
Speaker 4: So you're not gonna sit Kittle. You're definitely not sitting

1287
01:04:13,280 --> 01:04:16,240
Speaker 4: Brock Purty gonna give him a bee. He attempted just

1288
01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:19,680
Speaker 4: twenty one passes in the first meeting, but completed twenty

1289
01:04:19,680 --> 01:04:21,960
Speaker 4: of them for two hundred and eighty three yards and

1290
01:04:22,000 --> 01:04:24,920
Speaker 4: a touchdown. He also added a short score on the ground.

1291
01:04:25,520 --> 01:04:26,280
Speaker 4: Purty is my.

1292
01:04:26,440 --> 01:04:27,960
Speaker 3: He's not my number one this week.

1293
01:04:28,040 --> 01:04:32,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's not my real life MVP, but he's Fantasy's MVP.

1294
01:04:32,600 --> 01:04:34,720
Speaker 4: To me right now, at least among quarterbacks based on

1295
01:04:34,760 --> 01:04:37,520
Speaker 4: where he's drafted. He's he's having a season that Patrick

1296
01:04:37,560 --> 01:04:40,080
Speaker 4: Mahomes should be should be having, Purty is, but.

1297
01:04:40,280 --> 01:04:43,160
Speaker 3: Patrick Mahomes isn't having the season that Baker Mayfield's having,

1298
01:04:43,240 --> 01:04:46,680
Speaker 3: no or a lot of We won't get into Mahomes

1299
01:04:46,760 --> 01:04:46,960
Speaker 3: right now.

1300
01:04:46,960 --> 01:04:49,360
Speaker 4: We'll get into a little later, right but up, I

1301
01:04:49,440 --> 01:04:52,360
Speaker 4: just had to be on Purty because Christian McCaffery gets

1302
01:04:52,360 --> 01:04:53,360
Speaker 4: the fantasy.

1303
01:04:52,920 --> 01:04:55,160
Speaker 3: Fonsie a one.

1304
01:04:56,800 --> 01:05:00,240
Speaker 4: Seventy seven combo yards and four total touchdowns in the

1305
01:05:00,280 --> 01:05:01,800
Speaker 4: first meeting, and we don't have to go into Christian

1306
01:05:01,840 --> 01:05:05,480
Speaker 4: McCaffrey anymore. Over to the Cardinals side, starting with James Connor.

1307
01:05:05,880 --> 01:05:09,240
Speaker 4: Gonna give him a c Connor has averaged seventeen touches

1308
01:05:09,240 --> 01:05:12,200
Speaker 4: since his Week ten return and remains the volume base

1309
01:05:12,320 --> 01:05:15,560
Speaker 4: play regardless of matchup. But this should be tough sledding

1310
01:05:15,880 --> 01:05:18,880
Speaker 4: against the forty nine ers, who since Week ten have

1311
01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:22,880
Speaker 4: the fourth lowest missed tackles per attempt, the second highest

1312
01:05:22,880 --> 01:05:25,920
Speaker 4: stuff rate, and have given up the second fewest rushing

1313
01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:28,920
Speaker 4: yards per game. But there are injuries on the defensive

1314
01:05:28,960 --> 01:05:32,080
Speaker 4: side for San Francisco, They're gonna be without both starting

1315
01:05:32,120 --> 01:05:36,200
Speaker 4: defensive tackles Eric Armstead and Javon Hargrave. They'll also be

1316
01:05:36,240 --> 01:05:39,320
Speaker 4: missing strong side linebacker or In Berks. He has been

1317
01:05:39,400 --> 01:05:42,520
Speaker 4: ruled out, So Connor is still startable with the C

1318
01:05:43,200 --> 01:05:45,000
Speaker 4: and Trey McBride, of course is startable.

1319
01:05:45,040 --> 01:05:45,880
Speaker 3: Getna give him a bee.

1320
01:05:46,440 --> 01:05:48,400
Speaker 4: He only had one catch in the first meeting, but

1321
01:05:48,440 --> 01:05:52,760
Speaker 4: that's because zach Ert saw ten targets, so that volume

1322
01:05:52,760 --> 01:05:55,560
Speaker 4: should go McBride's way. But a tough matchup on paper.

1323
01:05:56,200 --> 01:05:58,960
Speaker 4: But again, the forty nine ers defense is dinged up

1324
01:05:58,960 --> 01:06:02,360
Speaker 4: pretty good. But Saffan Cisco allowing less than five catches

1325
01:06:02,360 --> 01:06:04,880
Speaker 4: and forty yards per game to opposing tight ends. But

1326
01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:07,760
Speaker 4: no way you're gonna sit Trey McBride. There is a

1327
01:06:07,800 --> 01:06:10,560
Speaker 4: way you're gonna sit Markis Brown if you have better options.

1328
01:06:10,560 --> 01:06:12,640
Speaker 4: I will give him a C grade. Though he had

1329
01:06:12,720 --> 01:06:15,520
Speaker 4: seven catches for ninety six yards in the first meeting,

1330
01:06:15,840 --> 01:06:18,919
Speaker 4: he should see similar volume in a likely positive game.

1331
01:06:18,960 --> 01:06:21,760
Speaker 4: Script for the Carolina passing game, I'm sorry the Cardinals

1332
01:06:21,840 --> 01:06:24,480
Speaker 4: passing game. The forty nine Ers have allowed these second

1333
01:06:24,480 --> 01:06:28,440
Speaker 4: most receptions to wide receivers and San Francisco starting cornerback

1334
01:06:28,680 --> 01:06:31,640
Speaker 4: Tarvarius Ward could miss this game.

1335
01:06:31,680 --> 01:06:32,480
Speaker 3: With a groin injury.

1336
01:06:32,480 --> 01:06:35,600
Speaker 4: They're saying he's expected to play, still listed as questionable,

1337
01:06:35,600 --> 01:06:37,840
Speaker 4: but likely won't be one hundred percent if you play,

1338
01:06:37,920 --> 01:06:40,280
Speaker 4: So I will give Brown the starting grade with the Sea,

1339
01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:43,360
Speaker 4: and just to see for quarterback Kyler Murray, who has

1340
01:06:43,400 --> 01:06:46,840
Speaker 4: been pretty spotty as a passer in his four games

1341
01:06:46,880 --> 01:06:50,880
Speaker 4: since returning, as he hasn't thrown for multiple scores yet,

1342
01:06:51,040 --> 01:06:53,760
Speaker 4: but his legs have kept him relevant, with a rushing

1343
01:06:53,760 --> 01:06:57,560
Speaker 4: touchdown in three of those four games played this year. Again,

1344
01:06:57,640 --> 01:06:59,400
Speaker 4: this is a tough matchup, but a lot of injuries

1345
01:06:59,400 --> 01:07:02,120
Speaker 4: on the San Francis go side. But one long run

1346
01:07:02,120 --> 01:07:04,120
Speaker 4: could save Maury's day. So you're still gonna start him

1347
01:07:04,120 --> 01:07:04,640
Speaker 4: with the Sea.

1348
01:07:04,760 --> 01:07:09,000
Speaker 3: All right, Washington taking on the Rams store this figures

1349
01:07:09,000 --> 01:07:11,960
Speaker 3: will be a one sided affair. Washington's without Brian Robinson,

1350
01:07:11,960 --> 01:07:13,920
Speaker 3: who's been ruled out of this game. I don't think

1351
01:07:13,920 --> 01:07:16,120
Speaker 3: you are touching any part of the running game because

1352
01:07:16,160 --> 01:07:18,000
Speaker 3: the game script's going to be all passes for a

1353
01:07:18,000 --> 01:07:20,240
Speaker 3: team that only passes anyway, sure.

1354
01:07:20,160 --> 01:07:23,080
Speaker 6: Is, I'm giving your boys Sam Howell a B grade

1355
01:07:23,120 --> 01:07:26,680
Speaker 6: in this one, QB seven and fantasy this year, and man, yeah,

1356
01:07:26,880 --> 01:07:28,880
Speaker 6: Chargers blowing the horn for him in the offseason, So

1357
01:07:28,920 --> 01:07:31,960
Speaker 6: got to give you a credit on that one. Sam

1358
01:07:32,000 --> 01:07:35,560
Speaker 6: Howell number one in passing attempts, he is number three

1359
01:07:35,600 --> 01:07:38,800
Speaker 6: in airy yards, and the Rams have an average pass defense.

1360
01:07:38,960 --> 01:07:42,160
Speaker 6: Howell's guaranteed to have the volume to attack that average defense.

1361
01:07:42,560 --> 01:07:43,360
Speaker 5: But give him a bee.

1362
01:07:44,800 --> 01:07:46,880
Speaker 6: I will say, if you're in a desperate situation, you

1363
01:07:46,920 --> 01:07:49,360
Speaker 6: get started. Antonio Gibson, who stepping into the limelight with

1364
01:07:49,360 --> 01:07:52,360
Speaker 6: Brian Robinson out with that hamstring injury. Last week when

1365
01:07:52,440 --> 01:07:55,640
Speaker 6: Robinson got injured, Gibson out touched Chris Rodriguez fourteen to

1366
01:07:55,680 --> 01:07:58,120
Speaker 6: three before the rookie Rodriguez got the last four.

1367
01:07:57,960 --> 01:07:59,280
Speaker 5: Touches in a blowout loss.

1368
01:07:59,400 --> 01:08:00,000
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1369
01:08:00,040 --> 01:08:02,720
Speaker 6: I also think Gibson's going to get ample receiving targets

1370
01:08:02,720 --> 01:08:07,200
Speaker 6: in this game. Recall at Memphis, Antonio Gibson reever.

1371
01:08:07,680 --> 01:08:08,560
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1372
01:08:08,640 --> 01:08:11,919
Speaker 6: Terry McLaurin, I'm gonna give him a C Fantasy's wide

1373
01:08:11,960 --> 01:08:15,400
Speaker 6: receiver thirty eight, but he's been trending down. McLaurin is

1374
01:08:15,440 --> 01:08:18,360
Speaker 6: not finished as a top thirty six Fantasy receiver in

1375
01:08:18,400 --> 01:08:22,160
Speaker 6: any week since Week nine and no touchdowns since Week eve.

1376
01:08:22,080 --> 01:08:25,439
Speaker 3: Despite the best quarterbacking of his career, the most prolific

1377
01:08:25,520 --> 01:08:27,839
Speaker 3: court and all of them though, though so Howell.

1378
01:08:28,040 --> 01:08:30,760
Speaker 4: Sorry didn't like Howell's going off and charged one of

1379
01:08:30,800 --> 01:08:33,680
Speaker 4: the greatest calls since I've been on the show by you.

1380
01:08:33,760 --> 01:08:37,160
Speaker 4: But how is Howell having such a good year. But McLaurin,

1381
01:08:37,520 --> 01:08:41,200
Speaker 4: Jan Dotson, Curtis Samuel, they're all outside like the top thirty.

1382
01:08:41,360 --> 01:08:43,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, wide receivers. It's because of the ball distribution, right,

1383
01:08:44,240 --> 01:08:47,559
Speaker 3: It's crazy, so many different receivers that no one of

1384
01:08:47,600 --> 01:08:50,559
Speaker 3: them is piling up decent stats. Curtis Samuel's been the

1385
01:08:50,560 --> 01:08:52,360
Speaker 3: most fantasy relevant of the bunch.

1386
01:08:52,560 --> 01:08:54,840
Speaker 5: Especially recently. That's why I'm giving him a bee.

1387
01:08:55,200 --> 01:08:58,559
Speaker 6: The work his workload has been increasing as mclaurin's has

1388
01:08:58,560 --> 01:09:00,719
Speaker 6: been going down in terms of the target gets. Since

1389
01:09:00,760 --> 01:09:03,479
Speaker 6: week twelve, Samuel has a twenty five percent target share

1390
01:09:03,520 --> 01:09:06,360
Speaker 6: and a twenty four percent first read share, and he's

1391
01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:09,639
Speaker 6: averaging eighty three receiving yards per game during that span.

1392
01:09:10,479 --> 01:09:12,840
Speaker 6: John Dodson, sorry to say, you gotta stay on the bench.

1393
01:09:12,880 --> 01:09:16,480
Speaker 6: Clear wide receiver three in Washington, widersoft fifty six in fantasy.

1394
01:09:16,680 --> 01:09:19,120
Speaker 6: But yeah, he's got to stay on the bench. Logan Thomas,

1395
01:09:19,120 --> 01:09:21,320
Speaker 6: though I'm gonna give him a b there's a chance

1396
01:09:21,360 --> 01:09:23,280
Speaker 6: for a big bounce back game for him after he

1397
01:09:23,320 --> 01:09:26,000
Speaker 6: had only two catches in the last two games combined

1398
01:09:26,040 --> 01:09:29,360
Speaker 6: before the bye. But Logan Thomas had five tight end

1399
01:09:29,439 --> 01:09:32,280
Speaker 6: one weeks earlier this season, and the Rams are number

1400
01:09:32,280 --> 01:09:35,600
Speaker 6: three and fantasy points allowed to tight ends. Moving to

1401
01:09:35,640 --> 01:09:38,120
Speaker 6: the Rams, Matthew Stafford, which was charged to take a

1402
01:09:38,200 --> 01:09:40,840
Speaker 6: chance on the guy, which I totally agree with. I

1403
01:09:41,200 --> 01:09:43,800
Speaker 6: was gonna give him an a in this gad on him. Yeah,

1404
01:09:43,840 --> 01:09:46,360
Speaker 6: twenty three plus Fantasy points and three straight. I think

1405
01:09:46,360 --> 01:09:48,240
Speaker 6: he gets to four in this one against that horrid

1406
01:09:48,360 --> 01:09:51,880
Speaker 6: Washington pass defense. Pooka Nakoa, My boy, I gotta give

1407
01:09:51,920 --> 01:09:55,000
Speaker 6: myself the peacock on that one. Great a of course,

1408
01:09:55,560 --> 01:09:58,280
Speaker 6: Fantasy's wide receiver eleven Key's.

1409
01:09:58,120 --> 01:10:01,519
Speaker 5: Your your Fantasy MVP. Good Nakua and of.

1410
01:10:01,400 --> 01:10:03,439
Speaker 6: Course the rookie of the year seven plus targets in

1411
01:10:03,479 --> 01:10:05,720
Speaker 6: every single game this year, by the way, needs to

1412
01:10:05,760 --> 01:10:08,320
Speaker 6: average eighty six receiving yards per game in the last

1413
01:10:08,320 --> 01:10:10,599
Speaker 6: four games to break Jamar Chase's rookie record.

1414
01:10:10,920 --> 01:10:12,479
Speaker 5: I think he's top in one hundred in this one.

1415
01:10:12,920 --> 01:10:16,719
Speaker 6: Commander's rank dead last in defensive drop back EPA truly

1416
01:10:16,800 --> 01:10:19,640
Speaker 6: truly ran to pass defense. Cooper cup I'm also going

1417
01:10:19,680 --> 01:10:21,320
Speaker 6: to give him an A in this one because it's

1418
01:10:21,320 --> 01:10:24,040
Speaker 6: just such a great matchup. Wide receiver twenty seven in

1419
01:10:24,120 --> 01:10:27,960
Speaker 6: Fantasy points per game last two games, averaging seven catches

1420
01:10:27,960 --> 01:10:31,719
Speaker 6: for seventy seven yards and a touchdown. Again, awesome matchup

1421
01:10:31,880 --> 01:10:34,599
Speaker 6: Wash and particularly for guys coming out of the slot

1422
01:10:34,720 --> 01:10:37,840
Speaker 6: like cup Is, Washington is dead last in defending slot

1423
01:10:37,920 --> 01:10:40,880
Speaker 6: since the halfway point of the season. Tyler Higby, I'm

1424
01:10:40,880 --> 01:10:43,000
Speaker 6: gonna give him a grade seat if he plays. He

1425
01:10:43,040 --> 01:10:45,880
Speaker 6: missed last week with the neck injury, has returned to

1426
01:10:45,920 --> 01:10:49,160
Speaker 6: practice as a full participant as of Thursday, so I

1427
01:10:49,240 --> 01:10:51,760
Speaker 6: expect him to play. But you have to monitor that

1428
01:10:52,160 --> 01:10:54,400
Speaker 6: Boomer bust tight end two this week, so I'll give

1429
01:10:54,439 --> 01:10:56,200
Speaker 6: him a grade of CE there.

1430
01:10:56,560 --> 01:10:57,840
Speaker 5: And then Kyron Williams.

1431
01:10:58,200 --> 01:11:01,080
Speaker 6: I've given everyone on the panel credit until Brian at

1432
01:11:01,080 --> 01:11:04,000
Speaker 6: this point, Brian, shout out to you for the Kyra

1433
01:11:04,040 --> 01:11:04,880
Speaker 6: and Williams one.

1434
01:11:05,000 --> 01:11:05,320
Speaker 3: Thank you.

1435
01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:09,240
Speaker 6: Great another great a matchup for Kyron in this one.

1436
01:11:09,320 --> 01:11:12,479
Speaker 6: He's RB two in Fantasy points per game, averaging one

1437
01:11:12,520 --> 01:11:15,960
Speaker 6: hundred and forty three total yards per game. Since his return,

1438
01:11:16,560 --> 01:11:19,760
Speaker 6: Washington's run defense has been circling the toilet ever since

1439
01:11:19,800 --> 01:11:22,360
Speaker 6: the trades per in particular, if Chase Young and Montes

1440
01:11:22,439 --> 01:11:25,800
Speaker 6: sweat anyone can run on them, Kyrin gets dang near

1441
01:11:25,840 --> 01:11:26,719
Speaker 6: one hundred percent.

1442
01:11:26,479 --> 01:11:27,960
Speaker 5: Of the snaps. He's gonna go off again.

1443
01:11:28,479 --> 01:11:32,400
Speaker 3: Chiefs sake on the Patriots. This one take long, although well,

1444
01:11:32,479 --> 01:11:34,400
Speaker 3: let me ask you this. Okay, So the Chiefs have

1445
01:11:34,880 --> 01:11:38,240
Speaker 3: this weird emotional thing at the end of last week's game.

1446
01:11:38,680 --> 01:11:45,000
Speaker 3: Do you think that's going to spark a resurgence? Is

1447
01:11:45,040 --> 01:11:47,160
Speaker 3: this like the emotional spark that they needed?

1448
01:11:47,520 --> 01:11:48,160
Speaker 5: I don't think so.

1449
01:11:48,880 --> 01:11:51,760
Speaker 6: Something seems off with them, and then Mahomes complaining about it.

1450
01:11:51,760 --> 01:11:54,240
Speaker 5: It's like, bro, he was clearly offside. What are you

1451
01:11:54,280 --> 01:11:54,840
Speaker 5: talking about.

1452
01:11:55,760 --> 01:11:57,160
Speaker 3: I didn't like it. I don't think this is going

1453
01:11:57,200 --> 01:11:58,000
Speaker 3: to be the spark.

1454
01:11:57,760 --> 01:11:59,960
Speaker 5: But some do. They've been winding about it all week too.

1455
01:12:00,680 --> 01:12:01,320
Speaker 5: I think move on.

1456
01:12:01,439 --> 01:12:06,120
Speaker 4: Travis Kelsey's more, you know, motivated because he couldn't attend

1457
01:12:06,160 --> 01:12:07,519
Speaker 4: Taylor Swift's birthday party.

1458
01:12:07,640 --> 01:12:09,200
Speaker 3: So now he's really got to make up for that.

1459
01:12:09,280 --> 01:12:11,759
Speaker 3: He's like promised for like four touchdowns. I've moved Kelsey

1460
01:12:11,800 --> 01:12:13,760
Speaker 3: down to a B grade first time this year. I

1461
01:12:13,760 --> 01:12:16,679
Speaker 3: had already moved Mahomes down a couple of times. This

1462
01:12:16,880 --> 01:12:20,400
Speaker 3: is the first B grade for Kelsey. Here's why, only

1463
01:12:20,400 --> 01:12:23,880
Speaker 3: getting twenty percent of Patrick Mahomes' red zone targets. What

1464
01:12:24,000 --> 01:12:26,479
Speaker 3: the hell? Come on? Eighty percents going somewhere other than

1465
01:12:26,520 --> 01:12:29,439
Speaker 3: Travis Kelsey. That's absurd. New England's been any lead tight

1466
01:12:29,520 --> 01:12:32,800
Speaker 3: end defense this year, allowing the fourth fewest fantasy points

1467
01:12:32,840 --> 01:12:35,360
Speaker 3: and tight ends in an average of just twenty nine

1468
01:12:35,479 --> 01:12:38,519
Speaker 3: yards to tight ends in the last six games. What's more,

1469
01:12:39,320 --> 01:12:42,920
Speaker 3: one tight end has scored against the Patriots all year.

1470
01:12:43,360 --> 01:12:48,160
Speaker 3: B grade, Travis Kelcey B grade, Patrick Mahomes. Belichick rallying

1471
01:12:48,200 --> 01:12:51,720
Speaker 3: his secondary back to excellent status. They had suffered that

1472
01:12:51,800 --> 01:12:54,200
Speaker 3: loss of christ Gonzalez earlier in the year and Matthew

1473
01:12:54,240 --> 01:12:56,400
Speaker 3: Judon in the same game, and they struggled for about

1474
01:12:56,400 --> 01:12:58,880
Speaker 3: a month. Then this past month or so they've been

1475
01:12:58,960 --> 01:13:01,720
Speaker 3: much better. Over the last five weeks. They've given up

1476
01:13:01,720 --> 01:13:04,719
Speaker 3: the six fewest passing yards, just one hundred and ninety

1477
01:13:04,840 --> 01:13:08,400
Speaker 3: seven per game, and just two passing touchdowns in five weeks.

1478
01:13:08,800 --> 01:13:11,320
Speaker 3: That's all Fredyk. It's gone wrong with the Patriots. It's

1479
01:13:11,360 --> 01:13:14,000
Speaker 3: not the defense. So just the B grade. I'm Patrick

1480
01:13:14,000 --> 01:13:16,360
Speaker 3: Mahomes orshe Rice comes in with a B grade. He's

1481
01:13:16,360 --> 01:13:18,880
Speaker 3: hauled in at least seven catches in three straight games.

1482
01:13:18,920 --> 01:13:21,400
Speaker 3: He's establishing himself as the go to wide out. He's

1483
01:13:21,439 --> 01:13:24,799
Speaker 3: averaging eighty one yards and two scores in those three games.

1484
01:13:25,360 --> 01:13:28,360
Speaker 3: Rice's top ten in the league in red zone looks

1485
01:13:28,400 --> 01:13:31,559
Speaker 3: with seventeen this year, and he's got a massive seventy

1486
01:13:31,680 --> 01:13:36,439
Speaker 3: seven percent completion rate on those red zone passes. But

1487
01:13:37,040 --> 01:13:39,840
Speaker 3: the Patriots only give up one passing touchdown per game

1488
01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:43,720
Speaker 3: to all positions, Rice runs from the slot the most often,

1489
01:13:43,760 --> 01:13:46,040
Speaker 3: where he's going to face off against cornerback Miles Bryant

1490
01:13:46,200 --> 01:13:48,400
Speaker 3: in a slightly plus matchup. Bryant gives up an eighty

1491
01:13:48,479 --> 01:13:51,240
Speaker 3: two percent catch rate, which is promising B grade Rashee

1492
01:13:51,320 --> 01:13:53,920
Speaker 3: Rice and the running games on the bench here in

1493
01:13:54,000 --> 01:13:58,000
Speaker 3: part because Clyde Edwards layer and Jerk McKinnon split split carries,

1494
01:13:58,280 --> 01:14:01,680
Speaker 3: but also because this just's been a great Patriots run

1495
01:14:01,720 --> 01:14:04,479
Speaker 3: defense all year. They ranked third by Pro Football Focus

1496
01:14:04,520 --> 01:14:07,439
Speaker 3: fifth and run stuff win rate. Don't start those guys

1497
01:14:08,479 --> 01:14:10,679
Speaker 3: on the New England side. There's only one startable player.

1498
01:14:10,720 --> 01:14:13,320
Speaker 3: That's Ezekiel Elliott, who got ninety one percent of the

1499
01:14:13,320 --> 01:14:16,120
Speaker 3: snaps last week, and with no other running back logging

1500
01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:21,040
Speaker 3: or rushing attempt seven straight opponent opposing runners have underperformed

1501
01:14:21,160 --> 01:14:26,760
Speaker 3: their season averages against Kansas City, Frankly has not looked good.

1502
01:14:26,760 --> 01:14:29,400
Speaker 3: He's averaging just three point seven yards per carry and

1503
01:14:29,720 --> 01:14:34,000
Speaker 3: negative rushing yards over expectation. He's eighth worst in yards

1504
01:14:34,040 --> 01:14:37,479
Speaker 3: over expectation. The Chiefs allow four point eight yards per carry,

1505
01:14:37,479 --> 01:14:39,920
Speaker 3: so there's an opportunity, But I don't love Zeke here,

1506
01:14:39,920 --> 01:14:41,519
Speaker 3: and I can only get you to a C grade

1507
01:14:41,600 --> 01:14:44,839
Speaker 3: the entire passing games on the bench for the Patriots. Obviously,

1508
01:14:44,920 --> 01:14:47,679
Speaker 3: Bailey Zappy looked much improved last week, but Kansas City's

1509
01:14:47,680 --> 01:14:50,120
Speaker 3: pass defense is very good, and I see a big

1510
01:14:50,200 --> 01:14:53,880
Speaker 3: regression coming. Even if de Mario Douglas returns six of

1511
01:14:53,920 --> 01:14:58,160
Speaker 3: the last eight quarterbacks to face Kansas City zero or

1512
01:14:58,200 --> 01:15:02,040
Speaker 3: one passing touchdown to leave all those guys nobody's playoff

1513
01:15:02,080 --> 01:15:04,040
Speaker 3: worthy from the Patriots passing game.

1514
01:15:04,120 --> 01:15:06,640
Speaker 4: The first Monday night football game in history to be

1515
01:15:06,680 --> 01:15:09,439
Speaker 4: flexed out of Monday Night, I believe was this game?

1516
01:15:09,720 --> 01:15:13,559
Speaker 4: Wasn't I think show how excited should be about this game?

1517
01:15:13,800 --> 01:15:16,840
Speaker 3: Yeah? And that's they moved the Chiefs on Monday Night.

1518
01:15:16,840 --> 01:15:19,480
Speaker 3: That takes it says a lot. We come back Dallas

1519
01:15:19,520 --> 01:15:23,439
Speaker 3: and Buffalo a signature game for this week. Points Galore

1520
01:15:23,560 --> 01:15:25,679
Speaker 3: is how it feels. Will find out if Brian agrees

1521
01:15:25,720 --> 01:15:42,479
Speaker 3: when we come back. Final segment of the first week

1522
01:15:42,479 --> 01:15:46,080
Speaker 3: in the playoffs. Fantasy Football Weekly Back to the matchups,

1523
01:15:46,120 --> 01:15:49,960
Speaker 3: including a Biggie Dallas Cowboys at Buffalo Bills. Brian, what

1524
01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:52,040
Speaker 3: do you think on this game? Let's start with Tony

1525
01:15:52,080 --> 01:15:54,320
Speaker 3: Pollard if you don't mind, no, yeah, let's start going

1526
01:15:54,360 --> 01:15:56,800
Speaker 3: in game here. I'm less enthused about him than I

1527
01:15:56,840 --> 01:15:58,479
Speaker 3: have in the past few weeks. What do you think? Yeah?

1528
01:15:58,560 --> 01:16:01,600
Speaker 4: Not the best matchup for Hollard, but Pollard has salvaged

1529
01:16:01,600 --> 01:16:03,920
Speaker 4: his season over the last month. Should have had a

1530
01:16:03,920 --> 01:16:06,479
Speaker 4: touchdown for the fourth straight game last week, but was

1531
01:16:06,520 --> 01:16:09,879
Speaker 4: vultured by Rico Dowdell yet again. But a tough matchup

1532
01:16:09,880 --> 01:16:12,479
Speaker 4: for Pollard here against the Bills, who have only allowed

1533
01:16:12,800 --> 01:16:15,679
Speaker 4: two running backs to reach seventy rushing yards over their

1534
01:16:16,040 --> 01:16:19,639
Speaker 4: last seven games. But Buffalo has allowed the fourth most

1535
01:16:19,680 --> 01:16:22,240
Speaker 4: receptions and receiving yards to running backs.

1536
01:16:22,560 --> 01:16:24,360
Speaker 3: So I like that for Pollard. So he gets to

1537
01:16:24,360 --> 01:16:26,160
Speaker 3: be obviously.

1538
01:16:25,800 --> 01:16:30,040
Speaker 4: Like CD lamb nay love cd A not getting into

1539
01:16:30,080 --> 01:16:30,679
Speaker 4: that anymore.

1540
01:16:30,760 --> 01:16:33,360
Speaker 3: Don't have to. He's going to flame Tarron Johnson in

1541
01:16:33,400 --> 01:16:36,000
Speaker 3: the slots. It's my number one ranked wide receiver this week.

1542
01:16:36,240 --> 01:16:39,160
Speaker 4: As for the other wide receivers, Brandon Cooks and Michael Gallup,

1543
01:16:39,200 --> 01:16:41,240
Speaker 4: I have them both on the bench, Gallup the more

1544
01:16:41,280 --> 01:16:45,040
Speaker 4: obvious bench. Some might consider starting Cooks, but Cooks has

1545
01:16:45,080 --> 01:16:49,040
Speaker 4: cooled considerably as of late, and since week nine, Buffalo

1546
01:16:49,040 --> 01:16:51,639
Speaker 4: has the fourth highest rate of too high, and since

1547
01:16:51,680 --> 01:16:54,880
Speaker 4: week eight against two high, Cooks has disappeared with only

1548
01:16:54,920 --> 01:16:58,280
Speaker 4: a seven point four percent target share and zero point

1549
01:16:58,280 --> 01:17:00,880
Speaker 4: seventy five yards per route run is not a lot,

1550
01:17:01,120 --> 01:17:03,719
Speaker 4: and that's statu is courtesy of Derek Brown the Fantasy

1551
01:17:03,720 --> 01:17:06,120
Speaker 4: Pro is a great stat there, So I'm benching Cooks,

1552
01:17:06,160 --> 01:17:09,280
Speaker 4: not benching Jake Ferguson, though he gets a be Fergie

1553
01:17:09,280 --> 01:17:12,000
Speaker 4: now leads all tight ends in red zone targets, and

1554
01:17:12,040 --> 01:17:15,080
Speaker 4: the Bills have yielded the third most red zone targets

1555
01:17:15,439 --> 01:17:18,559
Speaker 4: in goal to go scenarios. And the Bills haven't faced

1556
01:17:18,600 --> 01:17:21,040
Speaker 4: any tight ends of note recently, so their numbers aren't

1557
01:17:21,080 --> 01:17:25,200
Speaker 4: scary except for a guy named Travis Kelsey who they

1558
01:17:25,200 --> 01:17:27,960
Speaker 4: saw last week. He saw ten targets for six catches

1559
01:17:28,360 --> 01:17:31,600
Speaker 4: eighty three yards. That's hopefully a safe floor for Ferguson

1560
01:17:31,640 --> 01:17:34,960
Speaker 4: here and Dak Prescott an A for him. Safety Michael

1561
01:17:35,040 --> 01:17:37,559
Speaker 4: Hyde week to week with a neck injury for Buffalo,

1562
01:17:37,640 --> 01:17:41,040
Speaker 4: he's unlikely to play. Bodes even better for Dak, so

1563
01:17:41,120 --> 01:17:44,160
Speaker 4: an easy A for him. Over to the Buffalo side,

1564
01:17:44,200 --> 01:17:46,880
Speaker 4: starting with James Cook, he gets a C. With Joe

1565
01:17:46,920 --> 01:17:50,599
Speaker 4: Brady as the new offensive coordinator, Cook has averaged nineteen

1566
01:17:50,640 --> 01:17:53,120
Speaker 4: touches for one hundred and fourteen combo yards love it

1567
01:17:53,240 --> 01:17:55,760
Speaker 4: per game. He has been on a major upswing, but

1568
01:17:55,800 --> 01:17:58,760
Speaker 4: this is a tough matchup the Cowboys allowing only one

1569
01:17:58,880 --> 01:18:01,880
Speaker 4: hundred combo yards per game to opposing running backs. That's

1570
01:18:01,920 --> 01:18:04,640
Speaker 4: the third fewest. So just a C for Cook and

1571
01:18:04,720 --> 01:18:08,520
Speaker 4: just a B for Stefan Diggs. Here's diggs fantasy finishes

1572
01:18:08,600 --> 01:18:09,960
Speaker 4: over his last four games.

1573
01:18:10,200 --> 01:18:10,920
Speaker 3: This is not good.

1574
01:18:11,040 --> 01:18:15,080
Speaker 4: Wide receiver fifty three wide receiver sixteen wide receiver, fifty three,

1575
01:18:15,160 --> 01:18:18,879
Speaker 4: wide receiver fifty five. Those are not the fifty burgers

1576
01:18:18,880 --> 01:18:21,680
Speaker 4: we are looking for for Stefan Diggs, and unfortunately this

1577
01:18:21,720 --> 01:18:25,599
Speaker 4: isn't a bounce back spot necessarily, but saving grace here

1578
01:18:25,680 --> 01:18:28,599
Speaker 4: is number one. Wide receivers have had good games against

1579
01:18:28,600 --> 01:18:31,160
Speaker 4: Cowboys over the last two weeks. Aj Brown had nine

1580
01:18:31,200 --> 01:18:34,000
Speaker 4: catches for ninety four yards, and DK metcalf well, he

1581
01:18:34,040 --> 01:18:36,240
Speaker 4: had a great game. He had six catches for one

1582
01:18:36,280 --> 01:18:39,400
Speaker 4: hundred and thirty four yards and three touchdowns. Hopefully Digs

1583
01:18:39,400 --> 01:18:42,280
Speaker 4: can settle somewhere in the middle of those two stat lines.

1584
01:18:42,320 --> 01:18:45,439
Speaker 4: But either way, you're not gonna bench him. Gabe Davis

1585
01:18:45,720 --> 01:18:48,320
Speaker 4: gonna give him a C as and see you in

1586
01:18:48,400 --> 01:18:49,519
Speaker 4: hell if you start him.

1587
01:18:50,560 --> 01:18:52,680
Speaker 3: So that's not a letter grade. That's see.

1588
01:18:52,760 --> 01:18:56,000
Speaker 4: You cannot trust Gabe Davis in the playoffs here, so

1589
01:18:56,080 --> 01:18:59,000
Speaker 4: he is on the bench. Dalton Kincaid is not though

1590
01:18:59,200 --> 01:18:59,800
Speaker 4: to give him a c.

1591
01:19:00,200 --> 01:19:02,880
Speaker 3: Ah. I'm worried about him with knocks back. He did nothing.

1592
01:19:03,000 --> 01:19:03,439
Speaker 3: Last week.

1593
01:19:03,520 --> 01:19:06,559
Speaker 4: He did nothing, but he still ran roughly seventy percent

1594
01:19:06,600 --> 01:19:07,200
Speaker 4: of the routes.

1595
01:19:08,120 --> 01:19:09,880
Speaker 3: Over the last five games.

1596
01:19:09,880 --> 01:19:13,000
Speaker 4: The Cowboys have allowed just thirty seven yards per game

1597
01:19:13,080 --> 01:19:14,240
Speaker 4: to opposing tight ends.

1598
01:19:14,280 --> 01:19:16,040
Speaker 3: That is not good either.

1599
01:19:16,160 --> 01:19:19,280
Speaker 4: But I'm more concerned about the Cowboys than I am

1600
01:19:19,360 --> 01:19:24,120
Speaker 4: Dawson Knox. But if you have a better option than Kincaid,

1601
01:19:24,360 --> 01:19:26,800
Speaker 4: certainly starred him, but most do not, so I'm still

1602
01:19:26,840 --> 01:19:29,040
Speaker 4: gonna give him a C in this shootout. And lastly,

1603
01:19:29,120 --> 01:19:31,639
Speaker 4: Josh Allen gets a bee outside of the Gino Smith

1604
01:19:31,640 --> 01:19:34,240
Speaker 4: experience in Week thirteen. The Cowboys have surrendered just one,

1605
01:19:34,760 --> 01:19:37,720
Speaker 4: just one passing touchdown across their last three games. But

1606
01:19:37,800 --> 01:19:39,960
Speaker 4: Allen is going to get it done with his arms

1607
01:19:40,000 --> 01:19:40,800
Speaker 4: and legs here.

1608
01:19:41,040 --> 01:19:42,040
Speaker 3: But there's hope for that.

1609
01:19:42,320 --> 01:19:44,640
Speaker 4: Five of the last six quarterbacks to face Dallas have

1610
01:19:44,720 --> 01:19:47,200
Speaker 4: rushed for at least thirty yards and door a touchdown.

1611
01:19:48,640 --> 01:19:51,240
Speaker 3: Thor It's always tricky with Lamar Jackson because sometimes the

1612
01:19:51,320 --> 01:19:53,600
Speaker 3: Ravens play a great game and then he passes for

1613
01:19:53,600 --> 01:19:55,240
Speaker 3: one hundred and eighty yards and he runs for forty

1614
01:19:55,240 --> 01:19:57,280
Speaker 3: and he doesn't score any touchdowns and your team sunk.

1615
01:19:57,680 --> 01:20:00,640
Speaker 3: But man, Jacksonville's a juicy opponent, and I've got him

1616
01:20:00,680 --> 01:20:03,599
Speaker 3: ranked inside my top five at the quarterback position this week.

1617
01:20:03,640 --> 01:20:06,519
Speaker 6: I think it's game on, absolutely a big, big, big

1618
01:20:06,560 --> 01:20:08,719
Speaker 6: games coming for him. That Jake's allowed the third most

1619
01:20:08,720 --> 01:20:12,479
Speaker 6: Fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks, and Jackson's obviously

1620
01:20:12,479 --> 01:20:15,960
Speaker 6: been great. QB one last week in Fantasy also given

1621
01:20:16,000 --> 01:20:19,519
Speaker 6: an A to his top receiver, Zave Flowers. Get that

1622
01:20:19,680 --> 01:20:23,240
Speaker 6: since Mark Andrews went down, Flowers has run every single

1623
01:20:23,320 --> 01:20:25,799
Speaker 6: route that the Ravens have had with an eye opening

1624
01:20:25,840 --> 01:20:29,960
Speaker 6: twenty six percent target share. Gotta keep starting him. Is

1625
01:20:30,120 --> 01:20:33,120
Speaker 6: jaa likely? I give him a bee. The last two

1626
01:20:33,120 --> 01:20:35,479
Speaker 6: weeks he's been tight end eighteen and tight end three

1627
01:20:35,520 --> 01:20:38,440
Speaker 6: in Fantasy and this is a great matchup. That jaguarres

1628
01:20:38,439 --> 01:20:40,559
Speaker 6: allowed the eighth most Fantasy points per game and the

1629
01:20:40,560 --> 01:20:44,719
Speaker 6: second highest yards per reception to opposing tight ends. Keton Mitchell,

1630
01:20:45,040 --> 01:20:48,559
Speaker 6: My boy, give him a bee. So it is tough

1631
01:20:48,600 --> 01:20:51,280
Speaker 6: to predict to his workload. Last week he only played

1632
01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:53,760
Speaker 6: thirty three percent of the snaps, but because he's a

1633
01:20:53,760 --> 01:20:56,960
Speaker 6: home run hitter, he accrued the yards anyways. Last week

1634
01:20:57,000 --> 01:21:00,200
Speaker 6: he had sixty two total yards and just ridiculou less

1635
01:21:00,280 --> 01:21:05,200
Speaker 6: lee efficient six yards after contact per attempt in the

1636
01:21:05,280 --> 01:21:07,800
Speaker 6: NFL as a rookie, Wow, he's gonna light up the

1637
01:21:07,880 --> 01:21:10,720
Speaker 6: Jaguars because they're they're really bad at what he is

1638
01:21:10,800 --> 01:21:14,000
Speaker 6: best at. Jaguars are dead last and explosive run rate

1639
01:21:14,040 --> 01:21:16,680
Speaker 6: allowed since week nine, and that's what Keith Don is.

1640
01:21:16,720 --> 01:21:19,559
Speaker 6: A home run hitter. Moving over to the Jaggs, Trevor Lawrence.

1641
01:21:19,560 --> 01:21:22,280
Speaker 6: I got a see grade on him. Ankle injury very

1642
01:21:22,320 --> 01:21:25,920
Speaker 6: clearly still hampering him. Can't scramble, can't throw on run.

1643
01:21:26,000 --> 01:21:29,479
Speaker 6: You pen him in really can't drive into his throws.

1644
01:21:29,800 --> 01:21:32,880
Speaker 6: Lawrence had a brutal forty seven point eight PFF passing

1645
01:21:32,920 --> 01:21:36,400
Speaker 6: grade last week, five point one yards per attemp, three interceptions,

1646
01:21:37,000 --> 01:21:39,000
Speaker 6: and the matchup is quite bad.

1647
01:21:39,120 --> 01:21:39,320
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1648
01:21:39,479 --> 01:21:42,360
Speaker 6: The Ravens allow an NFL low five point six yards

1649
01:21:42,360 --> 01:21:45,559
Speaker 6: per attempt and they leave the NFL with forty nine sacks.

1650
01:21:45,920 --> 01:21:49,160
Speaker 6: Pretty good combination of that, yeah, exactly. I'm also going

1651
01:21:49,240 --> 01:21:51,320
Speaker 6: to give Calvin Ridley a great to see. Only four

1652
01:21:51,360 --> 01:21:54,840
Speaker 6: catches for fifty three yards last week. Obviously Lawrence was compromised.

1653
01:21:55,080 --> 01:21:57,519
Speaker 6: Gonna be another down game with the Ravens elite pass

1654
01:21:57,560 --> 01:22:01,280
Speaker 6: defense coming in here. Ridley will be opposed by Marlin Humphrey,

1655
01:22:01,320 --> 01:22:04,679
Speaker 6: the stud. Humphrey is number six in yards allowed per

1656
01:22:04,800 --> 01:22:08,320
Speaker 6: coverage snap. So now looking good there. You could start

1657
01:22:08,680 --> 01:22:11,320
Speaker 6: Jay Jones if you're desperate. Twenty five percent targets here

1658
01:22:11,400 --> 01:22:14,280
Speaker 6: last two games with Christian Kirk out. He also averages

1659
01:22:14,320 --> 01:22:16,519
Speaker 6: more than one deep target and one red zone target

1660
01:22:16,560 --> 01:22:19,400
Speaker 6: per game, but of course, the Ravens pass defense tempers

1661
01:22:19,439 --> 01:22:22,439
Speaker 6: the expectations, as they do for Evan Ingram. I also

1662
01:22:22,479 --> 01:22:25,040
Speaker 6: give him a C Fantasy tight end six, and coming

1663
01:22:25,040 --> 01:22:27,920
Speaker 6: off a really big week, he's number two in receptions

1664
01:22:27,920 --> 01:22:30,080
Speaker 6: at number five in receiving yards among tight ends over

1665
01:22:30,120 --> 01:22:33,519
Speaker 6: the entire season, but again bad matchup. Ravens allowed the

1666
01:22:33,560 --> 01:22:36,799
Speaker 6: fifth fewest fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends. Lastly,

1667
01:22:36,920 --> 01:22:39,600
Speaker 6: Travis Etn I give him a b RB six in

1668
01:22:39,680 --> 01:22:40,799
Speaker 6: Fantasy for the season.

1669
01:22:40,960 --> 01:22:42,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, but lately it's not as good.

1670
01:22:42,600 --> 01:22:43,400
Speaker 5: Lately, not as good.

1671
01:22:43,520 --> 01:22:46,080
Speaker 6: He's only averaging sixty eight total yards per game since

1672
01:22:46,120 --> 01:22:48,839
Speaker 6: Week ten. This is, though, I think, in my opinion,

1673
01:22:48,880 --> 01:22:52,240
Speaker 6: a sneaky solid matchup for Etn in this one, just

1674
01:22:52,240 --> 01:22:54,400
Speaker 6: because the Jaguars, I think are gonna run funnel to

1675
01:22:54,439 --> 01:22:56,080
Speaker 6: avoid that awesome Ravens secondary.

1676
01:22:56,200 --> 01:22:58,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, volume will be there for you ten for sure. Yeah,

1677
01:22:58,840 --> 01:23:00,599
Speaker 3: just the explosive plays have been the same.

1678
01:23:00,760 --> 01:23:00,840
Speaker 1: No.

1679
01:23:01,040 --> 01:23:03,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's I don't know if he's just wearing

1680
01:23:03,320 --> 01:23:05,320
Speaker 3: down over the course of a long season or whatever

1681
01:23:05,360 --> 01:23:07,800
Speaker 3: the case is, but it's that part's been disappointing. The

1682
01:23:07,800 --> 01:23:10,880
Speaker 3: Monday night or is Philadelphia at Seahawks rain expected, but

1683
01:23:10,960 --> 01:23:12,160
Speaker 3: not much you're gona be able to do about it

1684
01:23:12,160 --> 01:23:12,760
Speaker 3: by Monday night.

1685
01:23:13,400 --> 01:23:13,640
Speaker 2: A J.

1686
01:23:13,760 --> 01:23:17,120
Speaker 3: Brown is an obvious A DeVonta Smith Zoe's a much

1687
01:23:17,200 --> 01:23:19,800
Speaker 3: more tricky play over the last five weeks, Seattle's allowed

1688
01:23:19,840 --> 01:23:22,519
Speaker 3: the fifth most touchdowns per game to opposing receivers, which

1689
01:23:22,560 --> 01:23:26,960
Speaker 3: is good. And Seattle's cornerbacks Trey Brown, Devin Witherspoon already

1690
01:23:26,960 --> 01:23:29,320
Speaker 3: Burns all questionable for this game. If they're gonna miss

1691
01:23:29,560 --> 01:23:32,040
Speaker 3: you know, it could be game on for DeVonta Smith

1692
01:23:32,080 --> 01:23:35,080
Speaker 3: with a really nice game here. What worries me a

1693
01:23:35,080 --> 01:23:37,800
Speaker 3: little bit is Dallas Goddard coming back. When Goddard was

1694
01:23:37,880 --> 01:23:40,800
Speaker 3: in earlier in the season, Smith wasn't doing much and

1695
01:23:40,840 --> 01:23:43,559
Speaker 3: when God it went out Smith's productivity and fantasy points,

1696
01:23:43,600 --> 01:23:46,639
Speaker 3: we went way up Goddard's back. That worries me a bit.

1697
01:23:46,640 --> 01:23:49,000
Speaker 3: I've got to be grade on Smith. If those cornerbacks

1698
01:23:49,000 --> 01:23:50,519
Speaker 3: don't go we d up him to an A. Again,

1699
01:23:50,560 --> 01:23:52,479
Speaker 3: it's Monday night. Can't do anything about it at that point,

1700
01:23:52,520 --> 01:23:54,520
Speaker 3: but yeah, we duped him to an A in that scenario.

1701
01:23:55,080 --> 01:23:58,599
Speaker 3: Dallas Goddard for himself right back to the huge workload.

1702
01:23:58,640 --> 01:24:00,439
Speaker 3: He got eighty four percent of the tight end snaps

1703
01:24:00,520 --> 01:24:03,759
Speaker 3: last week, but it only materialized into four catches. Second

1704
01:24:03,800 --> 01:24:07,720
Speaker 3: game off injury should be better for Dallas Goddard. Seahawks

1705
01:24:07,760 --> 01:24:11,040
Speaker 3: are a bottom ten team against tight end receptions and

1706
01:24:11,080 --> 01:24:14,040
Speaker 3: tight end yards allowed. Including big games from George Kittle

1707
01:24:14,280 --> 01:24:17,280
Speaker 3: Jake Fergus in the past two weeks, Goddard averaging just

1708
01:24:17,400 --> 01:24:20,679
Speaker 3: one red zone target per game, and that really caps

1709
01:24:20,720 --> 01:24:23,040
Speaker 3: his upside. They just don't throw them anywhere near the stripes.

1710
01:24:23,120 --> 01:24:25,080
Speaker 3: So I can only get you to a C grade

1711
01:24:25,120 --> 01:24:27,640
Speaker 3: on Dallas Goddard in this one. So where does that

1712
01:24:27,760 --> 01:24:30,639
Speaker 3: leave Jalen Hurts. We've talked about everybody else so far

1713
01:24:30,680 --> 01:24:38,080
Speaker 3: in the passing game that matters body, he looks increasingly hurt, battered, tired.

1714
01:24:38,560 --> 01:24:41,600
Speaker 3: He's thrown zero or one passing touchdown in three of

1715
01:24:41,640 --> 01:24:45,600
Speaker 3: the last four games. Fortunately this is I love the

1716
01:24:45,640 --> 01:24:48,280
Speaker 3: matchups for aj Brown, I like it for DeVonta Smith.

1717
01:24:48,320 --> 01:24:51,080
Speaker 3: I mentioned the injuries to the secondary and three mobile

1718
01:24:51,120 --> 01:24:54,160
Speaker 3: quarterbacks to face Seattle, Daniel Jones early in the season,

1719
01:24:54,240 --> 01:24:57,080
Speaker 3: Josh Dobbs and then Lamar Jackson all top forty three

1720
01:24:57,120 --> 01:24:59,400
Speaker 3: rushing yards. So I've still got a B grade on

1721
01:24:59,479 --> 01:25:03,080
Speaker 3: Jalen Hurt. There's a lot of big range of outcomes here,

1722
01:25:03,080 --> 01:25:05,840
Speaker 3: and there is some danger with Hurts. This week, let's

1723
01:25:05,840 --> 01:25:10,240
Speaker 3: go to DeAndre Swift, quietly murdering fantasy owners the past

1724
01:25:10,520 --> 01:25:13,760
Speaker 3: basically two months. He's gone two straight games so without

1725
01:25:13,760 --> 01:25:17,400
Speaker 3: a broken tackle. He has not top passed eighty rushing

1726
01:25:17,479 --> 01:25:21,439
Speaker 3: yards since Week three. He has one touchdown in his

1727
01:25:21,520 --> 01:25:24,559
Speaker 3: last seven games. That's all DeAndre Swift is getting you.

1728
01:25:24,880 --> 01:25:26,519
Speaker 3: And I think people have just been thrown him in

1729
01:25:26,520 --> 01:25:28,719
Speaker 3: the lineup and just forgetting about it because he's DeAndre

1730
01:25:28,760 --> 01:25:30,759
Speaker 3: Swift and he's the starting running back for the Eagles.

1731
01:25:31,080 --> 01:25:33,519
Speaker 3: It has not really been working out for him at all. Fortunately,

1732
01:25:33,560 --> 01:25:36,160
Speaker 3: Seattle is allowing the six most fantasy points per game

1733
01:25:36,400 --> 01:25:39,719
Speaker 3: to opposing backfields. They ranked twenty first in run defense

1734
01:25:39,760 --> 01:25:42,920
Speaker 3: by Pro Football Focus. They've allowed twenty eight receptions to

1735
01:25:43,000 --> 01:25:45,680
Speaker 3: running backs in their last five games. But they're not

1736
01:25:45,720 --> 01:25:48,559
Speaker 3: even thrown to Swift that much anymore. Gainwol's getting more

1737
01:25:48,600 --> 01:25:51,080
Speaker 3: catches and they're just not And now with Goddard back,

1738
01:25:51,360 --> 01:25:53,640
Speaker 3: that's that many fewer catches to go to Swift. And

1739
01:25:53,760 --> 01:25:55,600
Speaker 3: I can only get you to a C grade on

1740
01:25:55,720 --> 01:25:59,519
Speaker 3: DeAndre Swift. Let's go over to Seattle, A grade for

1741
01:26:00,080 --> 01:26:03,360
Speaker 3: dk Metcalf because of his scoring prowess, and at B

1742
01:26:03,520 --> 01:26:06,120
Speaker 3: grade for Tyler Lockett, and I'll talk about both of

1743
01:26:06,160 --> 01:26:11,000
Speaker 3: them here. Both excellent matchups against the Eagles formerly formidable

1744
01:26:11,120 --> 01:26:15,360
Speaker 3: cornerbacks Darius Slay and James Bradberry Man for two guys

1745
01:26:15,360 --> 01:26:19,400
Speaker 3: who were just shut down cornerbacks last year. They've regressed

1746
01:26:19,479 --> 01:26:23,920
Speaker 3: all the way down to PFF grades of forty eighth

1747
01:26:23,960 --> 01:26:29,080
Speaker 3: and one hundred and second in coverage by Pro Football Focus.

1748
01:26:29,320 --> 01:26:32,040
Speaker 3: The Eagles allow the second most yards to wide receivers

1749
01:26:32,080 --> 01:26:35,559
Speaker 3: one hundred and ninety three per game. They've allowed multiple

1750
01:26:35,560 --> 01:26:38,680
Speaker 3: wide receiver touchdowns and five of the last six, so

1751
01:26:38,840 --> 01:26:42,280
Speaker 3: both guys could score. I like both Metcalf and Lockett.

1752
01:26:42,320 --> 01:26:44,559
Speaker 3: Lockett's only got the two touchdowns on the season, I think,

1753
01:26:44,600 --> 01:26:45,920
Speaker 3: and that's why I can't get him to an A.

1754
01:26:46,360 --> 01:26:48,760
Speaker 3: But both you know, Metcalf's a lock a, and I

1755
01:26:48,920 --> 01:26:51,879
Speaker 3: like Lockett here too, you know Wels. I like Jackson

1756
01:26:51,920 --> 01:26:54,080
Speaker 3: Smith and Jigbo running out of the slot a very

1757
01:26:54,120 --> 01:26:58,000
Speaker 3: positive matchup against Bradley Roby. He ranks his Pro Football

1758
01:26:58,040 --> 01:27:03,640
Speaker 3: Focuses eighty sixth quarterback cornerback. Although I'll know he is

1759
01:27:03,640 --> 01:27:05,720
Speaker 3: not allowed a touchdown in his coverage, so which is good.

1760
01:27:05,760 --> 01:27:10,120
Speaker 3: He's played six games no touchdowns allowed. Philadelphia allows the

1761
01:27:10,160 --> 01:27:16,120
Speaker 3: most fantasy points to slot receivers. That's why Jackson Smith

1762
01:27:16,160 --> 01:27:20,000
Speaker 3: and Jigba b grade on this one. So if I've

1763
01:27:20,040 --> 01:27:22,639
Speaker 3: got a's and b's on all the receivers. I gotta

1764
01:27:22,720 --> 01:27:25,920
Speaker 3: like Drew Lock and Gino Smith. I've got B grades

1765
01:27:25,920 --> 01:27:28,479
Speaker 3: on whoever ends up starting in this game. Six straight

1766
01:27:28,560 --> 01:27:31,640
Speaker 3: quarterbacks have thrown multiple touchdowns. Granted most of them the

1767
01:27:31,800 --> 01:27:33,799
Speaker 3: really good quarterbacks because he wass have played to Murderer's

1768
01:27:33,840 --> 01:27:36,760
Speaker 3: row of teams. Lock through two touchdowns on last week's start,

1769
01:27:36,800 --> 01:27:38,599
Speaker 3: and Lock always throws some bad passes. I mean, that's

1770
01:27:38,640 --> 01:27:40,320
Speaker 3: part of his deal. He looked pretty good, though, but

1771
01:27:40,360 --> 01:27:43,439
Speaker 3: I thought overall he did look pretty good. Game plan

1772
01:27:43,560 --> 01:27:45,400
Speaker 3: is going to tilt heavily towards the pass here, so

1773
01:27:45,800 --> 01:27:47,160
Speaker 3: if you're in a pinch, and by the way, the

1774
01:27:47,200 --> 01:27:50,360
Speaker 3: Eagles see the most pass attempts forty per game. Even

1775
01:27:50,400 --> 01:27:52,720
Speaker 3: Drew Lock, you give him forty tries, he's going to

1776
01:27:52,760 --> 01:27:54,360
Speaker 3: get you to a couple of touchdowns in this one.

1777
01:27:54,400 --> 01:27:57,240
Speaker 3: I like him here. The running backs Zach Sharbonay Kenneth

1778
01:27:57,280 --> 01:28:02,000
Speaker 3: Walker splitting touches evenly every week. That's going to continue,

1779
01:28:02,040 --> 01:28:04,320
Speaker 3: and it makes it a really risky play against a

1780
01:28:04,479 --> 01:28:08,360
Speaker 3: very good Eagles run defense. Since mid October, the only

1781
01:28:08,520 --> 01:28:10,879
Speaker 3: running the only running back to score on the Eagles

1782
01:28:11,640 --> 01:28:15,679
Speaker 3: is Christian McCaffrey. And that's not Zach Sharbonay and Kenneth

1783
01:28:15,720 --> 01:28:18,679
Speaker 3: Walker here. Philly gives up just three point nine yards

1784
01:28:18,680 --> 01:28:22,439
Speaker 3: per carry. They haven't allowed a receiving touchdown all year

1785
01:28:22,520 --> 01:28:24,840
Speaker 3: to a running back. There's nothing to like from those

1786
01:28:24,880 --> 01:28:26,960
Speaker 3: guys here. So you've got them on the bench. Got

1787
01:28:27,000 --> 01:28:29,200
Speaker 3: them on the bench. Bends for both guys. If it

1788
01:28:29,240 --> 01:28:30,760
Speaker 3: was just one of them, I could see moving one

1789
01:28:30,800 --> 01:28:33,320
Speaker 3: to agreed, But splitting it up, I can only get

1790
01:28:33,360 --> 01:28:35,120
Speaker 3: you to a seat. Hey, Best of luck in the

1791
01:28:35,240 --> 01:28:38,639
Speaker 3: Fantasy Playoffs everybody. Obviously, if you're the kind of listener

1792
01:28:38,680 --> 01:28:40,320
Speaker 3: to the show, we want you to win more than

1793
01:28:40,320 --> 01:28:43,360
Speaker 3: your opponent, unless that guy's also a listener, And then

1794
01:28:43,400 --> 01:28:45,040
Speaker 3: we want you to tie, and then we want you

1795
01:28:45,080 --> 01:28:46,840
Speaker 3: to go to the tiebreaker that I gave you and

1796
01:28:46,920 --> 01:28:48,840
Speaker 3: three tough questions and the only one I gave you.

1797
01:28:49,240 --> 01:28:51,639
Speaker 3: We'll be back next week for Round two of the playoffs. Everybody,

1798
01:28:52,000 --> 01:28:54,639
Speaker 3: Best of luck in the first round this week. Talk

1799
01:28:54,640 --> 01:28:55,360
Speaker 3: to you soon. Bye bye,
