Well command another 13 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 2: edition of I Watch Reflex Mike Harmon alongside Ryan Berginger 14 00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 2: Dan Bayer with us as always as we get into 15 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 2: the week heading into week ten, but the two of 16 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 2: us will take you through some of the big storylines 17 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 2: that emerge as we get out out of Week nine. 18 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 2: And I don't think there's anything bigger than the idea 19 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 2: of a guy getting zero snaps in a practice Ryan 20 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 2: and being able to go and practices cadence, hear my voice, 21 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,039 Speaker 2: hear my voice on the sideline with an offensive line 22 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:19,600 Speaker 2: and then coming in and accounting for three touchdowns in 23 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 2: relief of an injured starter, and that's Josh Dobbs of 24 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:27,120 Speaker 2: the Minnesota Vikings. Last week on the podcast we did 25 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:30,959 Speaker 2: to start the week predictive of the trade deadline, I 26 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 2: thought he was the best options of all of the 27 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 2: I mean there were like fifteen quarterback What about him? 28 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,039 Speaker 2: What about him? It's like, how about a guy that 29 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 2: actually just goes in plays? And Josh Dobbs is that guy. 30 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 2: Remember they couldn't get his jersey, Yeah he had to 31 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 2: for now he's got to do that again. 32 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 3: I mean, man, as a Packer fan watching this like 33 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 3: knowing that it's the Vikings, it doesn't affect me whatsoever. 34 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 3: I am loving the Josh Dobbs story this season is 35 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,400 Speaker 3: it is truly fun to watch knowing that he started 36 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 3: the season as a journeyman who the Cardinals just kind 37 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 3: of needed somebody to play quarterback at the start of 38 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:08,799 Speaker 3: the season and they picked up Josh Dobbs and and 39 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 3: he was actually pretty good to start the season, and 40 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 3: he looked like even a legitimate fantasy option at times. 41 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 3: And then you would you would called it last week 42 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 3: that the Vikings were a great landing spot for him. 43 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 3: That uh the way that uh, I'm drying a blank 44 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,080 Speaker 3: on their head. Coach did well. 45 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 2: Kevin O'Connell of the Vikings. 46 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, the Cardinals, Uh oh, car Jonathan. 47 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 2: Like where are you? Where are you taking me? Old one? 48 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 2: New one? Yeah? Where he demotioned to third which made 49 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 2: no sense. Yes, talks positively of him after the game, 50 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 2: and then comes back Monday because we watched the tape. 51 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:52,240 Speaker 2: We all watched the tape. 52 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 3: It ain't him as as you correctly called. He was 53 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 3: just straight up telling the media like he's he's going 54 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,080 Speaker 3: to be traded, and he he goes to the Vikings, 55 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 3: has no time whatsoever to pick up their offense. You 56 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 3: have videos of him, yeah, teaching the offensive lineman like 57 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 3: what he's what a snap counts it? Like, what his 58 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 3: cadence is. That's that's incredible, And the fact that he 59 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 3: came in and won that game. It's He just also 60 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 3: seems like a guy who's fun to root for, Like 61 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 3: he seems like a good dude and who's who's been 62 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 3: working hard at it for quite a few years in 63 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 3: the NFL. To see him come through this way is 64 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 3: really fun to watch. I think it's the best story 65 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 3: in the league this season, and from a fantasy perspective, 66 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 3: it is also rather rather, what's again I am drawing 67 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 3: blanks on it's comforting. The word I'm looking for is comforting. 68 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 2: Well in a strange year for the quarterback. Yes, right, 69 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 2: I've had I've had some good success in the predictive 70 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 2: and rankings and whatever. But what we've seen with DeVito 71 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 2: gonna take over for the Giants, right, Tobby DeVito next? 72 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 2: Because Daniel Jones gets hurt again. What a terrible story too, 73 00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 2: because he battled back neck injury where there was some 74 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,360 Speaker 2: questions of whether he was going to come back at all, 75 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 2: fights his way back on the field, barely gets his 76 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 2: beak wet, and he's now done for the year and 77 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 2: probably going to be thrown out of New York when 78 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 2: it's all said done. Be a high priced backup and 79 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 2: see where his career continues. But with DeVito, that I mean, 80 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,920 Speaker 2: that's ten rookies, right. As much as we're talking about 81 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 2: the rookie class to come, we got ten guys that 82 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 2: have been pressed into service in twenty twenty three. Look 83 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:35,600 Speaker 2: at Dovs's stats though four games this season with multiple 84 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 2: touchdown passes, four rushing touchdowns overall, and six games with 85 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 2: at least forty rushing yards like that's the one that 86 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 2: you're circling, right, there's your bonus four to five points. 87 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,040 Speaker 2: And you know, we were talking about a little bit 88 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,159 Speaker 2: Monday night in between the you know, trying to console 89 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 2: Jason Smith. You were working with us Jason Smith Show 90 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 2: and with me seven to eleven if it go on 91 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio each night, and talking about Josh Dobbs. 92 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 2: And that's one of the little secret things for him 93 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 2: is the rushing yards and particularly how pedestrian. And I'm 94 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 2: being nice there. The run game has been for Minnesota. 95 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 2: And look, we got plenty of guys we can call it, 96 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 2: Austin Eckler and Tony Pollard and certainly Alexander Madison. Here's 97 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 2: your opportunity. They let down the Cook go. I'm surprised 98 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,840 Speaker 2: Dalvin Cook didn't come back into Minnesota Union too. Right. 99 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 2: It used to work, maybe it could work again, But 100 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 2: Madison's been a disaster. Cam Akers shows up. He's now 101 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 2: got an acl again. I don't know what's real, what's 102 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 2: imagined in terms of the whispers you heard about him 103 00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 2: with the rams to this point, whatever, But anytime, I mean, 104 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 2: you don't wish any of that on anybody. Man in 105 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,159 Speaker 2: terms of where they're at and trying to make their living. 106 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 2: But Ty Chandler, a guy we've talked about for a 107 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 2: couple of weeks. He's stashable, but until he actually performs, 108 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 2: he ain't getting anywhere near starting lineup. So Josh Dobbs 109 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 2: becomes a de facto Hey, I hope for forty yards 110 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 2: out of him. So there's a balance. But the bigger issue, right, 111 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:11,200 Speaker 2: and we've talked about it from a guillotine perspective of 112 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:15,280 Speaker 2: the victories of picking up Justin Jefferson Right, what was 113 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,839 Speaker 2: it seventy nine? You pay seventy seven? Right, because I 114 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:22,039 Speaker 2: bid sixty nine, because I'm a smart ass. Look, sometimes 115 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 2: you take the cheap joke like everybody else. But all 116 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,039 Speaker 2: of a sudden he's back in play because they're in 117 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 2: the number seven seed in the NFC. You got Hockinson, 118 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 2: you got Addison. The kJ Osborne injury did not look good. 119 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 2: So we haven't seen As we record this late on 120 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 2: Monday night heading into Tuesday morning, East Coast, we don't 121 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 2: have a definitive word as to what his status is 122 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,600 Speaker 2: near and long term. But you've got an offense that 123 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,160 Speaker 2: can make some noise. You got a schedule that has 124 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 2: some spots for you to make some noise. Even if 125 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 2: you look at fantasy playoff weeks, there are opportunities because 126 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 2: they're divisional, which I think is the dopiest thing ever. 127 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,840 Speaker 2: But when you're playing the Lions defense, we've seen this 128 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 2: rated at times. When you're playing the Packers defense, sorry 129 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 2: they have not. I mean, yeah, they beat up on 130 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 2: Brett Rippen, but they've been beatable. Right, take advantage of 131 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 2: the schedule and look at the Chargers what they did 132 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 2: to Zach Wilson. That was a twenty nine point performance. 133 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 2: And I'll tell you what. I had a fantasy matchup 134 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 2: to where I needed like one of those ridiculous efforts, huh. 135 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 2: But for one step out of bounds at the end 136 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 2: on that return, that was a touchdown that would have 137 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 2: been put me over the top and given me a victory, 138 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 2: sending me to seven and two. Instead, it's a six 139 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 2: and three team. That's fine. I was going up against 140 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 2: the guy that's right up top with me, and it 141 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 2: was the most improbable because dk Metcalf. The guys that 142 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 2: we complained about a couple of weeks ago all factor 143 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 2: in on that squad. But for Dobbs opportunity is there, 144 00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 2: but it probably means if you're Justin Jefferson, maybe it 145 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 2: was towards Operation shut down a week or two ago. 146 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 3: Yeah. 147 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 2: Now, all of a sudden, it's like, wait a minute, 148 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 2: there's still stuff to play for. And this guy didn't 149 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 2: even know the playbook. 150 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 4: Yeah that's or their names for great right now he's 151 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 4: learning out. 152 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 3: They look like players in the n C two A 153 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 3: football games. To him, they're just you know, running back 154 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 3: number twenty four. Yeah, no, I think that's where you 155 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 3: if you were a Justin Jefferson owner, you've been on 156 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,360 Speaker 3: such a weird wave of emotions since Kirk Cousins went down, 157 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 3: because suddenly you're like, well, I mean, dang, is he 158 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 3: not even gonna come back now? Is this team gonna 159 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 3: even be able to compete? Are we gonna have to 160 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 3: watch Jaron Hall try to throw to Justin Jefferson. Now, suddenly, 161 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 3: this this situation feels like a spot where Justin Jefferson's 162 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 3: gonna be rather reinvigorated coming back in healthy onto that team, 163 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 3: and Dobbs is gonna feed him and Jordan Addison as well. 164 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 3: Where Addison it looked like suddenly his his value had 165 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 3: dropped a ton now with even once Jefferson comes back, 166 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 3: if Osbourne is out for a bit, and it's the 167 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 3: fact that, yeah, you should feel comfortable with Dobbs throwing 168 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,079 Speaker 3: these guys the ball because he's definitely a better option 169 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,319 Speaker 3: than a handful of quarterbacks across the league right now. 170 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:18,079 Speaker 3: So that's you can definitely feel pretty good once again 171 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 3: about having receiving options from the Vikings in fantasy. 172 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,840 Speaker 2: Eighty percent availability heading into the waiver period for Week 173 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 2: ten of your National Football League season. All right, on 174 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 2: the other side of that game, yes, is another one. 175 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 3: Right. 176 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 2: We did the hate and love kind of thing a 177 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 2: couple of weeks ago. Who's helping your team, who's tearing 178 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 2: you asunder and driving you insane? And obviously when we 179 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:47,560 Speaker 2: look at the Atlanta Falcons, look, I long jennisoned Kyle 180 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 2: Pitts to the waiver wire in one of the leagues. 181 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:52,560 Speaker 2: I got tired of weight and I had some injury 182 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 2: issues and just said, okay, I need able bodied elsewhere. 183 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 2: And well, maybe that's a mistake because the guy one 184 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 2: of my other tight ends is now well done for 185 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 2: the season. But in Atlanta, John news Smith taking up 186 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 2: some of his touches, but We're all still waiting to 187 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:15,319 Speaker 2: see what exactly Bijon Robinson is going to be because 188 00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 2: at this point, it's the My mom used to have 189 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 2: a phrase when we'd buyer maybe maybe some nice stuff, 190 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 2: you know, the nice clothing thing for a birthday or Christmas, 191 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 2: or you'd buy something that you thought was a cool 192 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 2: gadget for the kitchen, and her phraseology was always save 193 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 2: it for good. At this point, what the hell is 194 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 2: Arthur Smith saving Bijon Robinson for another game with just 195 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 2: eleven carries eleven eleven. Everybody remembers the game against Tampa 196 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:49,679 Speaker 2: Bay where he was basically a bystander, but thirteen fourteen, 197 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 2: So outside of week two against your Packers, when he 198 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 2: went for nineteen for one twenty four, you're looking at 199 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,319 Speaker 2: fourteen or fewer carries per week. Did go over a 200 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:04,080 Speaker 2: hundred yards against Jacksonville in a twenty three seven loss. 201 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 2: Passing game targets are still there, nine targets over the 202 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:12,560 Speaker 2: last two weeks, totaling one catch for eight yards or 203 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 2: two yeah, two catches for eight yard. Sorry, but his 204 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:22,640 Speaker 2: lack of inclusion in the offense and showcasing is one 205 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 2: of the most maddening things because if you look at 206 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 2: adp what was he top five? Yeah, in virtually every 207 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:28,439 Speaker 2: letting much. 208 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, looking back at this last game too, you have 209 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 3: Tyler Algier had more touches than Bijon. You had that 210 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 3: weird drive where the Falcons got down to first and 211 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,640 Speaker 3: goal from the one and then started with a false start, 212 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 3: so they moved back to the six. So then they 213 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 3: pass it to John new Smith, then they try a 214 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:52,200 Speaker 3: rushing attempt with John new Smith, and then they try 215 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 3: a rush with Tyler Algier. So in that drive ended 216 00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 3: in a field goal. They did not score a touchdown there. 217 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 3: Not only is Bijon not getting a touch in these 218 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:05,440 Speaker 3: goal to go situations, they're literally handing the ball off 219 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 3: to John hu Smith instead. Because I believe the phrase 220 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 3: is if you if you have John hu Smith on 221 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 3: your team, you try to find ways to get him 222 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:14,319 Speaker 3: the ball. 223 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:14,839 Speaker 4: Damn it. 224 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 2: You know what they did New England was they set 225 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 2: up to direct deposit for big checks. I didn't really 226 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 2: see to get him the ball very often. 227 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:28,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, And I look, I get that John who 228 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 3: did eventually have that big sixty yard catch and run 229 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 3: in the game. But and and John who's been fine, 230 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 3: I'm not trying to knock John who Smith as a player. Here, 231 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,320 Speaker 3: I'm trying to knock the fact that Arthur Smith apparently 232 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 3: is enamored by him and doesn't seem to want to 233 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 3: give the ball to anyone else, including the man that 234 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 3: their team spent a insanely high draft pick on, and 235 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 3: the fact that they're still handing the ball off to 236 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,080 Speaker 3: Tyler Algier Moore. Again, Algier is a fine running back, 237 00:12:55,520 --> 00:13:00,719 Speaker 3: but everything points to Bijon being a very strong and 238 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:04,080 Speaker 3: probably being the best running back on this team. All 239 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 3: conventional wisdom seems to indicate that everything, except for his 240 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 3: actual usage on the field, seems to indicate that. 241 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 2: Well. I mean, we saw the video game Remember Andy's Room, 242 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 2: and it was the greatest jump step ever. 243 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 3: So I don't know, I don't understand. I don't Maybe 244 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,800 Speaker 3: now that Arthur Smith has shaved his mustache, then maybe 245 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:28,559 Speaker 3: now he'll start to come to his senses. I'm not sure, 246 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 3: but yeah, he seems to get some sort of sick 247 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 3: satisfaction from making fantasy managers angry. And I can see 248 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:39,320 Speaker 3: where you would enjoy doing that if you played in 249 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:41,960 Speaker 3: the league, but you shouldn't be doing that at a 250 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:43,720 Speaker 3: detriment to your own actual team. 251 00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:47,840 Speaker 4: So good for you, Arthur. Give Beijond the damn ball. 252 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 2: Now, let's let's jump to positivity, shall we. We've done 253 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 2: some negativity. We'll get into some of the injuries after 254 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 2: the break, but let's get one more story in because 255 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 2: one of the feel good stories I think for the 256 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:08,200 Speaker 2: year is the success and dominance in many, many spaces 257 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 2: of CJ. Stroud. Now I did not like seeing him 258 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 2: in a couple of leagues against me. This particular week. 259 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 2: I had this strange week where I had two teams 260 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 2: I faced, had Stroud Kate Otten and the Raiders defense 261 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 2: playing against me. Talk about a base of points. The 262 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 2: other guys didn't even have to show up, yeah, to 263 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 2: beat my beat me down in those But when we 264 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 2: look at Stroud this last week, I mean just operational 265 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:40,480 Speaker 2: efficiency at its finest. Your offensive line starting to get together. 266 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 2: We talked about Tank Dell a long time ago. This 267 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 2: week we got Dalton Schultz back in the mix, one 268 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 2: of my all time favorites, a guy I really thought 269 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 2: was gonna be a big factor for him all year 270 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 2: and maybe the second half. He blows up in the 271 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 2: tight end position, certainly has openings at the top of 272 00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 2: the heap for some performances, but for seventy yards five touchdowns. 273 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 2: I started Lamar Jackson in the leagues that I had CJ. 274 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 2: Stroud as backup as you would strong matchup, and it's 275 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 2: it's just like the Chargers Jets game on Monday night. 276 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 2: If you see the final score, like I got a 277 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 2: couple of touchdowns in a big game from Justin Herbert. No, 278 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 2: I didn't you see the score for the Ravens game. 279 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 2: I got a big game from Lamar Jackson. No I 280 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 2: got fifteen points. I got help by the fact that 281 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 2: he had some rushing yards. But you look at Stroud 282 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 2: at this point and you've had three games of three 283 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 2: hundred plus a three eighty four back against Indianapolis Week two. 284 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 2: Now you got this massive four to seventy game against 285 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 2: the Buccaneers. And even with the offensive line having the 286 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 2: component parts, I mean, they haven't played their starting five 287 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 2: together at all. He's only absorbed eighteen sacks. The kid 288 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 2: gets the ball out and he finds his targets. He's 289 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,920 Speaker 2: operating at a sixty two percent completion rate. Ryan fine, 290 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 2: dirt it whatever. But the fact that you just keep 291 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 2: seeing zeros in the turnover column just amazing. Right, he's 292 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 2: at fourteen and one thus far. And this is a 293 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 2: guy that I dare say, with Nico Collins, with Schultz, 294 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,640 Speaker 2: with Tank Dell, you got a guy that's gonna win 295 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 2: you some fantasy titles. And he's probably still on your 296 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 2: bench because you haven't felt compelled to trust it. Right 297 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 2: because against Carolina that was the one clunker in the mix. 298 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:34,360 Speaker 2: Completes two thirds of his pass has been only one 299 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 2: hundred and forty yards, zero touchdowns, did have a rushing touchdown, 300 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 2: but otherwise you're looking at five multi touchdown games, including 301 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 2: this five spot that he puts up here, only shut 302 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 2: out twice from the passing touchdown column, that perhaps people 303 00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 2: will be more willing to push him forward, I think, 304 00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 2: Or is it just do you still look at as 305 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 2: a still a rookie because I look, I played the 306 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,359 Speaker 2: defensive thing, right, we talked about it, and you were 307 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 2: working with us when we're talking with Smith even looking 308 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:15,160 Speaker 2: long term with Aaron Rodgers or whatever else. Of all, right, 309 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 2: if there's a guy that might be viable, I'd rather 310 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 2: re rod on my bench. And I can kick myself 311 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:24,960 Speaker 2: in the ass for not activating a guy, because I'll 312 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 2: beat myself that way as opposed to I didn't have 313 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 2: the guts to pick somebody up and watch him beat 314 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 2: me on the other side. And I think with CJ. Stroud, 315 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 2: that's gonna happen with a bunch of folks. But we're 316 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:40,879 Speaker 2: I think I'm starting to get to the point where 317 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 2: maybe I'd step out on that ledge a little bit. 318 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 3: He's this is a It was an incredible game to 319 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 3: watch because everything about Stroud's situation kind of is building 320 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,439 Speaker 3: in this way. Where as fantasy players we look at 321 00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,119 Speaker 3: it and think, all right, there should be great opportunity here. 322 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 3: Defense isn't good, so they're gonna be playing from behind 323 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 3: a lot. Their run game is non existent because Damian 324 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 3: Pierce has been a non factor, and then he's hurt, 325 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 3: and so Devin Singletary is also a non factor. So 326 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 3: they just have to throw constantly. But the factor there 327 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:17,679 Speaker 3: is then Stroud has to be effective and throwing, and 328 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,679 Speaker 3: as you're pointing out, he's been very, very good at that. 329 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 3: He's not turning the ball over, he's spreading the ball 330 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 3: out incredibly. 331 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:25,119 Speaker 4: Well. 332 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 3: You had those five touchdowns to four different guys. Tank 333 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,240 Speaker 3: Dell had too, but otherwise Nico Collins, Noah Brown and 334 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:36,480 Speaker 3: Dalton Schultz all got one. So he's he clearly like 335 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 3: he's he's he's being very effective and he's distributing the 336 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:45,160 Speaker 3: ball incredibly well. And yeah, as you're saying, you would 337 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 3: kind of have to start to move him up those rankings. 338 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,199 Speaker 3: But then you're starting to play matchups because as you mentioned, 339 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 3: like for example, Justin Herbert at not a good week 340 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:57,959 Speaker 3: this week, and this isn't the first time this has 341 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 3: happened to him. Of course, the Jets have a good 342 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 3: pass defense, but looking at matchups next week, C J. 343 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 3: Stroud goes to Cincinnati against the Bengals and Justin Herbert 344 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,680 Speaker 3: has the Lions at home. You probably lean Herbert on 345 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 3: the matchup there because the Lions secondary isn't good. But 346 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,960 Speaker 3: that also is a game where the Texans are gonna 347 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:22,919 Speaker 3: throw a lot and I mean, granted that's they're all 348 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 3: gonna be like that for them probably, but especially with 349 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 3: the Bengals, you figure the Bengals should should take care 350 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 3: of them pretty well. Stroud's gonna have to throw the 351 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 3: ball a lot, so he's starting to another one here 352 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 3: Niners Jaguars, So looking at Trevor Lawrence against the Niners, 353 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,160 Speaker 3: the Niners you've been able to throw against pretty well, 354 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,399 Speaker 3: so that's probably still a good matchup there. But this 355 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:46,439 Speaker 3: is kind of the echelon that CJ. Stroud's moving into 356 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,479 Speaker 3: where you look at these matchups with with guys like 357 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 3: Herbert and and and Lawrence who were drafted as your 358 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:59,439 Speaker 3: QB one very strongly, and these are probably teams with 359 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,679 Speaker 3: that have Stroud on their bench. Yeah, so yeah, I 360 00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 3: think that you do start to play the matchups. It's 361 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 3: going to be very tempting, coming off of this gigantic 362 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:13,680 Speaker 3: performance to just go with Stroud, but you know he'll 363 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 3: still have growing pains here and there. But I mean 364 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 3: it's obviously it's a great problem to have now if 365 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 3: you've got Stroud and another starting quarterback. So I think 366 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 3: that you still have to kind of be a little 367 00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:33,440 Speaker 3: level headed play matchups and understand that it is going 368 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:35,399 Speaker 3: to be pretty matchup dependent with what you can and 369 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 3: can't do with these guys. But you will have to 370 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 3: really consider starting Stroud over bigger names like that. 371 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:46,919 Speaker 2: Ryan Burschegar with me, Mike Carman, I watch Flax. You 372 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 2: already know that you tuned in at Ryan Burschegar where 373 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 2: you find him on Twitter. The swing Shift podcast as 374 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 2: we get into the hot stove and the debates of 375 00:20:56,280 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 2: where do you spend your money in free agency? Perhaps 376 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 2: it's just shameless begging with He and Bo Benson for 377 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 2: show Heyo Tani to become a Dodger. Find me over 378 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 2: at Swollen Dome, where I rant on everything and anything sports, 379 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:14,680 Speaker 2: pop culture, music related. We have some fun there now. 380 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,199 Speaker 2: Coming up next, we'll talk about a couple of injuries 381 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:21,639 Speaker 2: that loom large in the fantasy universe, creating opportunities for 382 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,720 Speaker 2: other players and their respective teams, and on the waiver wire. 383 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 2: That's coming up next in just a minute, Hey, welcome 384 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 2: back in I Watch Flex here getting ready for Week 385 00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,920 Speaker 2: ten of your National Football League. Right now, we're taking 386 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 2: a look back at some of the big news and 387 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 2: notes coming out of the Week nine action, including a 388 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:45,119 Speaker 2: couple of injuries. Mike Harmon, Ryan Berschinger with you here. 389 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 2: In bersch I look at a couple of names that 390 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 2: really stand tall, top options at their respective positions, and 391 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:58,200 Speaker 2: one is huge because well, let's face it, a couple 392 00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 2: of times this season, cloak of invisibility has found its 393 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 2: way on to Jamar Chase. He was smallish in the 394 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:12,160 Speaker 2: Sunday Night win against the Bills, but back injury right, 395 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:19,199 Speaker 2: applying all sorts of apparatuses, apparati to try apparatuses to 396 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 2: try to stimulate the back, get rid of some of 397 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 2: the paint. Took a nasty hit and fall on the 398 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 2: lower back and finished with just forty or four point 399 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 2: one points forty one receiving yards on the night, and 400 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 2: then obviously add your points per reception a couple of 401 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 2: what was at four for forty one, but also has 402 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 2: had three other games this season, and remember Joe Burrow 403 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 2: being injured at the start of the season limited some 404 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:49,439 Speaker 2: of that, but we had finally had at least a 405 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 2: couple of double digit games, including that breakout Week five 406 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 2: for Chase now potentially on the shelf. We'll get official 407 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,719 Speaker 2: word as the week goes on. But all of a sudden, 408 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:04,879 Speaker 2: Tyler Boyd, who's out there in over forty percent of 409 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 2: fantasy leagues. You saw him pick up a bunch of 410 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,920 Speaker 2: targets against the Bills. Looks like he's ready for prime time. 411 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 3: Now, yeah, that's definitely where you keep your eye on 412 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:18,960 Speaker 3: the likes of Tyler Boyd. If Chase misses action, you're 413 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:22,440 Speaker 3: able to definitely upgrade t Higgins He finished with eight 414 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,160 Speaker 3: for one ten in that game. And this is why 415 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 3: you kind of stick with t Higgins. I know it's 416 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:29,480 Speaker 3: it's been it's been tough goings for him. All three 417 00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 3: of those guys, man, it has been a roller coaster. 418 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,120 Speaker 3: Now you add Irv Smith Junior, you add the other 419 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:37,919 Speaker 3: tight ends, it's it's a it's a little bit of 420 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:42,480 Speaker 3: a strange scenario. Pick your poison and ride the lightning 421 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 3: with Joe. 422 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 4: Burrow and it was nice to see as well. 423 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 3: Joe Mixon did up five catches in this game to 424 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 3: go with his rushing touchdowns. So I expect Mixon to 425 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 3: have a pretty strong second half of the season. And 426 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,440 Speaker 3: if they are missing Jamar Chase, they've got to rely 427 00:23:57,480 --> 00:23:59,639 Speaker 3: on him more and that includes working him into the 428 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 3: past and we didn't see Travion Williams really cut into 429 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 3: his workload as much, which in the past you would 430 00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:10,399 Speaker 3: have seen p Ryan step in and get a decent 431 00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:14,159 Speaker 3: amount of work. Yeah, Travion Williams had three rushes, So 432 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 3: mixing seems like a bell cow back on a very 433 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 3: good offense on a team that's going to be contending. 434 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 3: So I would expect pure volume is gonna give him 435 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 3: great numbers through the second half here. 436 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:29,920 Speaker 2: Well, we certainly see them on the come. Right, You've 437 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 2: got the Ravens separating themselves a little bit from the 438 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 2: pack in the AFC. And as I joked about Jason 439 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 2: lockanfora who joins us on our show, Smith and I 440 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:45,400 Speaker 2: you know, he works out of Baltimore, DC area, And 441 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 2: it's like, look the object in the rear view mirror 442 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 2: maybe closer than it appears, i e. The Bengals are coming, 443 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:54,479 Speaker 2: that defense is playing well, and obviously the Chase injury 444 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 2: certainly is something we have to be alert too. But 445 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 2: to your point, I mean, and if you can pick 446 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:03,760 Speaker 2: up in the passing game, because another guy that was 447 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 2: disappointing to start the year, and also probably I mean, 448 00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 2: look from a draft perspective, he went high ish for 449 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 2: running backs just by default. Yeah, but not with any 450 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 2: great expectation, right, he redid his contract to come back 451 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:21,400 Speaker 2: and whatever else. So it's like, all right, do we 452 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 2: like you, do we love you? 453 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:23,560 Speaker 1: Do? 454 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 2: We just play the percentages based on the fact that 455 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:31,720 Speaker 2: running backs don't have any negotiating power unless you're Jonathan Taylor. 456 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 2: Because Jim Mersey decided he loved you all right, the 457 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 2: other big injury comes out of what was one of 458 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:40,360 Speaker 2: the games of the week, and really a crazy sequence 459 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 2: towards the end. But Dallas Goddar comes away, he's got 460 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 2: a fractured arm. It's all like, okay, that escalated quickly, 461 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 2: but now he's gonna head to i R. He's gonna 462 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 2: miss some time. And so we start going down the 463 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 2: depth chart trying to find out, you know, how this goes. 464 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:00,440 Speaker 2: I keep waiting for the Eagles to revert to the 465 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:04,440 Speaker 2: old form of running the football with five different guys. 466 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 2: Obviously Boston Scott hasn't been available, but just thinking that 467 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,679 Speaker 2: that identity would show back up. Instead, it's been the 468 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:16,439 Speaker 2: AJ Brown Show each and every week. Devantae Smith getting 469 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:20,160 Speaker 2: back in the good graces of the world this week. 470 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:24,359 Speaker 2: But when we look at the way this squad is 471 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 2: moving forward, and from a fantasy perspective, at the tight 472 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 2: end position you're looking at Goddard was only tight end 473 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 2: nine through nine weeks, lower than would have expected. I mean, 474 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:41,640 Speaker 2: you've got the breakout of Laporta and obviously Cole Comet 475 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:45,200 Speaker 2: a couple of huge games skewing those totals. I mean, 476 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:47,919 Speaker 2: your most effective tight end the last few weeks has 477 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:49,200 Speaker 2: actually been Taysom Hill. 478 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, in. 479 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:56,199 Speaker 2: Terms of the topsy turvy tight end position. So you know, 480 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:59,880 Speaker 2: Dalton Schultz pops up again, going back to the planet 481 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:03,679 Speaker 2: Houston a little bit. But this is a huge blow 482 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 2: for that offense in terms of what Goddard means running 483 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:12,399 Speaker 2: down the seam and keeping safeties honest and giving both 484 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:16,639 Speaker 2: Brown and DeVante Smith some free run. So suddenly that 485 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 2: bogs down a little bit. Not to mention the fact 486 00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:21,879 Speaker 2: that Jalen Hurts. Let's grab him while we're here. Yeah, 487 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 2: how bad's that knee? 488 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:24,200 Speaker 4: Right right? 489 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:25,920 Speaker 2: And he was asked a question about it, he got 490 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 2: up and walked away from the podium. Yes, so yeah, 491 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 2: I mean, they obviously have a bye week in week ten. 492 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 2: Couldn't come at a better time. But still, you know, 493 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:38,720 Speaker 2: the eyebrow has to be raised for the second half. 494 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:42,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, that seemed to be pretty underdiscussed, was the fact 495 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 3: that it hurts might be a little more banged up 496 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:47,359 Speaker 3: than they're letting on. But looking at last year when 497 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 3: Dallas Goddard missed a good amount of time, that was 498 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 3: the period where DeVante Smith really took off for them. 499 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:55,200 Speaker 3: That was during the second half of the season where 500 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 3: he was winning people fantasy championships because of his games 501 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,399 Speaker 3: were coming up on strong at the end of the 502 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 3: season and into the fantasy playoffs. He had four out 503 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 3: of five weeks near the end of the season. There 504 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 3: he had over one hundred receiving yards. He had multiple 505 00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 3: touchdowns across those games, and in most of those games 506 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 3: Goddard was still out. Goddard came back around Christmas last year, 507 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:23,440 Speaker 3: and Devonte Smith still had a great game on Christmas 508 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 3: when Goddard came back. But in the games leading up 509 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 3: to that, in Goddard's absence, we saw DeVonta Smith's numbers rise. 510 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:34,119 Speaker 3: So I know that it's He's been a bit up 511 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 3: and down this season thus far. He scored this past week, 512 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:41,280 Speaker 3: he put up good numbers there. I would feel pretty 513 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 3: strongly about Davonte Smith in Dallas Goddard's absence. 514 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:47,720 Speaker 2: All right, let's go to one more storyline before we 515 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,920 Speaker 2: get to our waiver wire pickups for the week, and 516 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 2: that's in Indianapolis, where we referenced the contracted Jonathan Taylor 517 00:28:56,080 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 2: before and well, I'm any happy returns unless you're a 518 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 2: Zach Moss owner. Heading into Week nine, Ryan, he was 519 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 2: the number three leading rusher in the National Football League 520 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 2: with a couple of monster efforts against Baltimore and against Tennessee. 521 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 2: Now seven carries twenty six yards against Carolina and relegated 522 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:24,520 Speaker 2: more or less to Hey, you just had a long run, 523 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 2: I'll come in and spell you for a snap, or yeah, 524 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:32,959 Speaker 2: just waving pomp poms on the sideline. Unfortunately, is what 525 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 2: it looks like for Zach Moss. 526 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 3: Now. You know, credits to Zach Moss. He ran very well, 527 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 3: made the most of his opportunity. Man, he really did, 528 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 3: and nobody thought he was going to be any good. 529 00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:50,840 Speaker 3: So a credit to him for coming through and being 530 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 3: a not only like a productive member, but like a 531 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:58,120 Speaker 3: pretty darn good running back through the first part of 532 00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 3: this season. But yeah, I just felt inevitable. 533 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 2: Uh. The they were. 534 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 3: Easing Taylor back in because you know, he missed time 535 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:09,160 Speaker 3: because of his injury and there was all the contract stuff. 536 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 3: But once they heavily invested in him, you got to 537 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 3: feel like at some point Jim Mersey himself was saying, 538 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 3: all right, it's it's time to unleash Jonathan Taylor now 539 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 3: because quite frankly, we're paying him to be that person. 540 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 3: So uh and and that was just a matter of time. 541 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 3: So Taylor's a great play obviously for the remainder of 542 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,360 Speaker 3: the season. Uh, Zach Moss is gonna start going on 543 00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:36,320 Speaker 3: to your bench, but he should still be rostered because yeah, yeah, no, you. 544 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 2: Got you always got to have your insurance card. 545 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 3: And if because if Taylor misses any time at all, 546 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 3: he's an easy start and Zach Moss's so uh yeah, 547 00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 3: you've definitely got to still roster him. And like maybe 548 00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 3: in matchup dependence, if if they're playing some really rough 549 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:57,520 Speaker 3: rush defenses and and you're desperate, he's he still can 550 00:30:57,560 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 3: provide some some flex possibility. 551 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 2: All right, I have a little fun at the running 552 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 2: back position before we get to waiver wire. Yes, all right, 553 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 2: I'm looking at a grid that's got the PPR rankings 554 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 2: Fantasy point totals through week nine. B John Robinson we 555 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 2: talked about before, just behind the other Robinson, Brian Robinson. 556 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 2: They are twelfth and thirteenth respectively. So B John Robinson 557 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 2: still just on the outside. That's where the running back 558 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:27,520 Speaker 2: position is. Yeah, that's what that's what the point I'm 559 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 2: trying to make your Birch is that he's still thirteenth 560 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 2: amongst PPR. Get this all right? You know who number 561 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:36,480 Speaker 2: one is? 562 00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 4: It's Christian McCaffrey number two. 563 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:41,760 Speaker 2: Because there's another I'm gonna get to a point, yeah, 564 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 2: pretty fast here. 565 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:44,680 Speaker 4: The two would be. 566 00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 2: Well, I'll I'll just give to you. You got moster? 567 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 2: Oh okay, yeah, three is etn. You want to guess 568 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 2: who number four is? Another guy much maligned? 569 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 4: Would that like. 570 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 2: Josh Jacobs? 571 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 4: Oh okay, good, he's fourth. 572 00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 2: One PPR Wow for running. Now. He had a big 573 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:15,240 Speaker 2: game obviously in week nine. But I guess the point 574 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 2: I'm trying to make is while he was never great, 575 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 2: he was consistently right at about a ten in PPR leagues, Right, 576 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:25,440 Speaker 2: it wasn't you know? Basically you're I got I got 577 00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 2: fifty fifty to sixty yards, and I got a couple 578 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 2: of receptions week after week. And then he's had a 579 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 2: couple of big games. He had a twenty eight point game, 580 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,360 Speaker 2: he had a twenty point game, and then the last 581 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 2: two weeks he's put up nearly thirty eight points between 582 00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 2: the game against the Bears and then coming back against 583 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:52,959 Speaker 2: the Giants. Swift his fifth Mosses sixth number seven suspended 584 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 2: for three games, but Alvin Kamara is number seven amongst 585 00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 2: your running backs. Just trying to show you the chaos. 586 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 2: I mean number fourteen is Kyron Williams. Hasn't played in 587 00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:05,800 Speaker 2: three weeks, so at the running back position, good luck, 588 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:11,320 Speaker 2: top twenty still eight chan yeah, one point nine, and 589 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:16,520 Speaker 2: then three monthster games put him at RB twenty. In 590 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:20,120 Speaker 2: other words, everybody, give yourself a big hug. You're doing okay. 591 00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:23,400 Speaker 2: He's Ryan burscheground, Mike Carman. I watch your flex continues, 592 00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 2: waiver wire pickups going into week ten coming up next. 593 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,520 Speaker 2: All right, time to get into the waiver wire. The chaos, 594 00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:34,200 Speaker 2: guillotine leagues, your fantasy leagues, trying to figure out some 595 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 2: plays down the stretch. A lot of what we're looking at, Bursch. 596 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 2: I think you know we got a couple of wide receivers. 597 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 2: We've already talked about Tyler Boyd a little bit. We've 598 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 2: already talked about the return of Kyler Murray or Josh Dobbs. 599 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:51,040 Speaker 2: At the quarterback position, I mean, Sam Howell is still 600 00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 2: available in almost forty percent of leagues. Not quite sure 601 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 2: how Yes, there are some some turnover issues, but he's 602 00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 2: got almost twenty five hundred passing yards and fourteen touchdowns, 603 00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:05,680 Speaker 2: Will Levis. We gave him his flowers, some bad throws. 604 00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 2: He's gonna rely too much on his yoked arm every 605 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:11,000 Speaker 2: once in a while, but he's gonna do some good 606 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 2: things so long as Hopkins is out there to work 607 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 2: with him. Russell Wilson coming out of the bye week, again, 608 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:21,240 Speaker 2: as much as we've kind of bagged on on where 609 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:24,440 Speaker 2: he is and I don't know how the marriage is 610 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:28,240 Speaker 2: with him and Peyton still sixteen touchdowns against four interceptions 611 00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:32,960 Speaker 2: before their bye week, and then Baker Mayfield twelve against four. Well, 612 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 2: both of those guys sub fifty percent owned. Not monster plays. 613 00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 2: But again we're looking at long term and with the 614 00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:45,600 Speaker 2: amount of quarterbacks that are going into the dirt and 615 00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 2: i e. The injury tent, maybe maybe it's time to 616 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,520 Speaker 2: add an extra quarterback on the end of your roster. 617 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:56,839 Speaker 2: If nothing else, you're screwing over your opponents because once 618 00:34:56,880 --> 00:35:00,400 Speaker 2: they need one, they ain't there. And then Aaron Rod Rogers, 619 00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:04,360 Speaker 2: if you really want to get cheeky in long term, 620 00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:07,239 Speaker 2: based on what you saw all right, running backs really quick. 621 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,880 Speaker 2: Keaton Mitchell's gonna be the hot guy of the week 622 00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:13,160 Speaker 2: coming out of Baltimore, paired up with Gus Edwards and 623 00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:18,240 Speaker 2: obviously the rushing exploits of Lamar Jackson. Only five percent 624 00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:25,279 Speaker 2: owned Justice Hill goes to the scrapmin Jalen Warren twenty 625 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:28,680 Speaker 2: nine receptions on the year. PPR leagues, he's a must 626 00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:32,520 Speaker 2: own for me, must roster anyway, still a third of 627 00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 2: leagues having bothered. Rashid Shaheed not you know, big speed. 628 00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:42,040 Speaker 2: He's not gonna put up massive reception counts each week, 629 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:45,960 Speaker 2: but he's part of the offense. Rashid Rice for the chief, 630 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:50,080 Speaker 2: seems to have the trust. Look that offense is broken, 631 00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:54,040 Speaker 2: but you've at least got somebody that steps forward a 632 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:58,200 Speaker 2: little bit beyond Kelsey, and that's Rice thus far. And 633 00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:04,680 Speaker 2: then Khalil Shakir appears to be supplanting Gabe Davis as 634 00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:08,640 Speaker 2: a trusted option for Josh Allen. There's a lot of 635 00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:12,880 Speaker 2: mess there in Buffalo, but PPR leagues, I'll take the targets. 636 00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's that's I take it. Something I've noticed 637 00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 3: that Khalil Herbert should be. He's back at practice, he's 638 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:27,279 Speaker 3: been designated to return, so he's he's worth taking a look. 639 00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:29,799 Speaker 3: If he happened to hit Waivers while he was on 640 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:31,960 Speaker 3: the ir he did in one of my leagues, I 641 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:34,759 Speaker 3: was able to grab him, and and this week I 642 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 3: think especially pretty good matchup with the Panthers and. 643 00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 2: Panthers Burns probably isn't going to play, at least as 644 00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:45,400 Speaker 2: with the short week. As we sit here late Monday 645 00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:47,960 Speaker 2: early Tuesday, doesn't look like he's going to be able 646 00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:51,120 Speaker 2: to go. So there's a few few extra tackles that 647 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:51,720 Speaker 2: get missed. 648 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 3: And if you're looking for an interesting deep stream at quarterback, 649 00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:57,399 Speaker 3: I know. 650 00:36:57,560 --> 00:36:57,960 Speaker 2: Let's go. 651 00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:00,680 Speaker 3: I've I said a lot of negati of things about 652 00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:05,479 Speaker 3: Arthur Smith here, but Taylor Heineke against the Cardinals, No, 653 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:05,799 Speaker 3: that's it. 654 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:06,480 Speaker 4: Pretty good. 655 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 2: They've got the number one pick and they're not going 656 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 2: to give it up. Although I am curious, you know, 657 00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:13,120 Speaker 2: the Kyler Murray thing, as we mentioned a little bit before, 658 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 2: I still wouldn't take him out of bubble wrap. Right, 659 00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:20,919 Speaker 2: you've got the number I mean, I guess you still 660 00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:23,960 Speaker 2: can trade the number two or number three for a 661 00:37:24,000 --> 00:37:27,920 Speaker 2: bevy of picks. If Kyler, Murray and Gannon seems like 662 00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:31,160 Speaker 2: they've got nice sandbox and something going behind the scenes 663 00:37:31,200 --> 00:37:35,680 Speaker 2: that maybe they work together well and get an opportunity 664 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:38,800 Speaker 2: for twenty four. So you take that pick and you 665 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 2: you know, flip it into a number of others, but 666 00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:44,480 Speaker 2: that number one is nice and juicy. It is nice 667 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:48,000 Speaker 2: and juicy. Certainly some great return there. We talked about Tank, 668 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:51,600 Speaker 2: Dell Quick, the tight end, John why Smith only twenty 669 00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:52,520 Speaker 2: eight percent. 670 00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:55,080 Speaker 4: On Yeah, and all they do is saying he's. 671 00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:58,080 Speaker 2: Going to be a pass catcher and carry the ball 672 00:37:58,120 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 2: now and again going back to the said Arizona Cardinals, 673 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:06,279 Speaker 2: Trey McBride big target count. Yeah, right, Wilson has been 674 00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:09,920 Speaker 2: banged up and you're really outside of Hollywood and Brown 675 00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:14,040 Speaker 2: haven't seen a lot. And then Kotton had his huge game. 676 00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 2: He's got sixteen catches. Again, the tight end position being 677 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:20,640 Speaker 2: what it is, you're trying to catch lightning in a bottle. 678 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 2: And three straight weeks nine point three, eight point seven 679 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:28,600 Speaker 2: to twenty three are the target count has been pretty 680 00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:32,960 Speaker 2: immense these last couple of weeks. So opportunity doth knock 681 00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:35,680 Speaker 2: anybody else? Any other venting you need to do? You 682 00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:36,759 Speaker 2: survive ge a team. 683 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:39,719 Speaker 4: I did, So that's good. I feel really good about 684 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:40,319 Speaker 4: that team. Now. 685 00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:42,880 Speaker 2: So oh I don't I you know, I from my 686 00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:45,960 Speaker 2: waiver wire heroes to where we are now, still a 687 00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:47,680 Speaker 2: lot of work to do.
