1
00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:04,040
Speaker 1: Hello everybody, Welcome into the Fantasy Pros Football Podcast. I'm

2
00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:08,000
Speaker 1: Ryan Warmley, joined by Andrew Erickson and Pat fitz Morris.

3
00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:09,080
Speaker 2: Interesting trio.

4
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:11,719
Speaker 1: This was the three of us who did this Starts

5
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:14,600
Speaker 1: and since show last year. This year, of course, Erickson

6
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:16,079
Speaker 1: was not on the show, but we are bringing him

7
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 1: back for our Holiday Championship episode week seventeen starts and six. Ericson,

8
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:24,520
Speaker 1: how are you doing, buddy? I've done other shows with you,

9
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:26,439
Speaker 1: of course, but not this one this year.

10
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 3: Doing great, celebrating this glorious boxing day the day after

11
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 3: Christmas with you, guys.

12
00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 4: Couldn't think of anything better.

13
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,919
Speaker 2: So Red Rock totally agree. Fits, how are you doing?

14
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:38,919
Speaker 1: You were telling us a little bit about your Christmas

15
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 1: here before we started recording. Sounded like some football, some wine.

16
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 1: What more could you ask for?

17
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:49,600
Speaker 5: Exactly? Food, family, dogs, kids. It was great. It was

18
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 5: a really good time. Hopefully everyone out there had a

19
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 5: great Christmas too.

20
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:55,600
Speaker 1: Ericson and I have watched all of Stranger Things. We

21
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 1: will not spoil it for you or the listeners here.

22
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 1: Fits as we move, I had hated Ericson strategically takes

23
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 1: a ship from that mug. We can go ahead and

24
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 1: dive into the show, guys, this is the Fantasy Championship

25
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: here of course, just quickly, because I didn't talk to

26
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:11,480
Speaker 1: you guys earlier in the week. How many leagues are

27
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:13,200
Speaker 1: you alive and how many titles are you fighting for?

28
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:13,399
Speaker 6: Here?

29
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 5: Fits seven? Actually seven, seven and zero. Semi final week

30
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 5: it was glorious. I'm worried that's going to boomerang back

31
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 5: on me and it's going to be a terrible finals week.

32
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:26,680
Speaker 5: But so far, really not much blood after the three

33
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 5: game Christmas slates, so.

34
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 2: That is impressive.

35
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,479
Speaker 1: I had eight teams in the semi finals, just two

36
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 1: survived to the championship. Now I would call them my

37
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 1: second and third most important teams. So if I had

38
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 1: to pick two, it's a pretty good two to pick.

39
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 1: It's funny going into this week in one of the

40
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,320
Speaker 1: leagues I have Puka in. In one of the leagues, I'm

41
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 1: facing Puka, and so I feel like, well, I'll probably

42
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: go one in one here because he's going to go

43
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 1: a long way towards determining this thing.

44
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 2: Ericson, how about you just one?

45
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 4: And it's the one that I came about the most.

46
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 3: It's the one that I won last year, the biggest

47
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 3: money league, and that I'm in so hoping to repeat,

48
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 3: not off to like the best start because I had

49
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 3: Jamison Williams that have the Lions defense, so that was solid,

50
00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,239
Speaker 3: and I did face bon Nicks. So again, the way

51
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 3: that the slate is set up this Christmas Week is

52
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 3: such a slow burn, right because you have a couple

53
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:16,080
Speaker 3: of games on Thursdays and then a couple of games

54
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 3: on Saturday, and then Sunday and then Monday Night, like

55
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 3: the Sunday Night games, the Monday Night games, Falcons, Rams,

56
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:26,080
Speaker 3: forty nine Ers and Bears like a lot of really

57
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 3: impactful fantasy players. So it's going to come down to

58
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,800
Speaker 3: the wire. I think in that final Monday Night game

59
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 3: between I mean the Rams and Falcons b John Robinson,

60
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 3: Drake London. The Rams piece is just it's going to

61
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 3: be a great finish for a lot of fantasy leagues.

62
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 1: Obviously it didn't pan out this way due to the

63
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 1: tragic circumstances with Tamar Hamlin. But it's similar going into

64
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 1: the weekend to how I felt to the year where

65
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 1: the Fantasy title game was Monday Night Bill's Bengals, where

66
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 1: going into that weekend it was like, oh, there's just

67
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:55,959
Speaker 1: so many players here that are going to be really

68
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 1: impactful in a lot of these leagues.

69
00:02:57,720 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 2: Rams Falcons.

70
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 1: Maybe not quite on that level with the quarterback matchup,

71
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 1: but it feels similar in terms of just the number

72
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 1: of really like significant players who are probably still alive

73
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:08,920
Speaker 1: in a lot of these fantasy title games. Coming on

74
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 1: Monday night will be kind of fun to sit back

75
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 1: and wait for that and just kind of see how

76
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 1: it all plays out. I think like half my starting

77
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 1: roster in one of the leagues I'm alive and is

78
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 1: playing in that Monday night game. So definitely won't know

79
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: anything until we get to that game. Reminder for everybody,

80
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 1: just one last one going into the championship here. All

81
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,359
Speaker 1: of our twenty twenty five consensus rankings and tiers can

82
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 1: be found at fantasypros dot com slash rankings. And at

83
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 1: this point we're not talking rest of the season rankings.

84
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 1: We're not talking looking ahead at anything.

85
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 5: It is.

86
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 2: You know, look at those weekly rankings.

87
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 1: They are being updated here still throughout the week, even

88
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 1: despite the holidays. Guys, we usually have a bit of

89
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 1: a start or see some of these popular waiver ads.

90
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 2: Segment.

91
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 1: I was sitting down to put this together earlier in

92
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 1: the week. It didn't feel like there were really any

93
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 1: good options here, with one exception that I'll bring up,

94
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 1: but for the most part, like you're gonna be playing

95
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 1: the best players on your team right you're here in

96
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 1: the Fantasy Championship. There also weren't a ton of obvious,

97
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 1: like instant starters here. The one that I was maybe

98
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 1: going to bring up that I won't ask you guys

99
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 1: about is the Browns backfield.

100
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 2: It does seem like Dylan Sampson, you.

101
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 1: Know, has been back at practice, so maybe we won't

102
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 1: be looking at some of these backup guys. Obviously, keep

103
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:16,480
Speaker 1: an eye on that throughout the weekend. The one name

104
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,279
Speaker 1: that I did want to ask you about, though, is

105
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,279
Speaker 1: Michael Carter. He has been a starting option at various

106
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 1: times during the season. He was still under fifty percent

107
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 1: rostered here coming into this week. You know, he's got

108
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 1: that starting role for Arizona here in what looks like

109
00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 1: a good matchup.

110
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 2: So ericson, I'll start with you, just Carter.

111
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 1: Is he somebody that they're interested in starting him in

112
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,600
Speaker 1: in the Fantasy Championship if you haven't eate a running back, Yeah.

113
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 4: I think that he's a solid starter.

114
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 3: He's kind of been solid all year when he's given opportunities.

115
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 4: I don't love that.

116
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 3: The Cardinals are kind of still embracing this committee, and

117
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 3: they found their new Bam Night with Corey Kiner, who

118
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 3: was taking snaps at inside the red zone last week

119
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 3: and this week. According to Coach Speak Index, they talked

120
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 3: about how they love Kiner and how physical he is

121
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 3: as a rusher, so basically the carbon copy of why

122
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,119
Speaker 3: they like using Bam Knight at the goal line. So still,

123
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,360
Speaker 3: you can't beat the matchup against the Bengals, one of

124
00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,600
Speaker 3: the best four running backs. So even if Carter isn't

125
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 3: seeing seventy eighty percent of the snaps, he should be efficient,

126
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 3: and he was efficient last week, which hasn't always been

127
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 3: the case with him. So I think he's a solid

128
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 3: RB two flex play.

129
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:24,280
Speaker 1: He's RB twenty six in ECR ericson too high two

130
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 1: lower regis straight.

131
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 5: I think it's a little low. I've got him at

132
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,840
Speaker 5: twenty three. I'm starting him in a championship game, and

133
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 5: I think people are maybe a little lower on him

134
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 5: than they should be because he didn't catch any passes

135
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 5: last week, but the week before that he had four

136
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 5: catches for I think thirty eight yards. Ericson mentioned the matchup.

137
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 5: The Bengals have given up I think nineteen hundred and

138
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 5: twenty four yards to running backs, most in the league,

139
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,839
Speaker 5: and he just didn't get a lot of rushing volume

140
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 5: last week because the Cardinals were stuck in a negative

141
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,599
Speaker 5: game script against the Falcons. They trailed pretty much for

142
00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 5: the entirety of that game, so only eleven carries for Carter,

143
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 5: but he was efficient with them. You'd hope that maybe

144
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 5: the Cardinals can keep it a close fight with the

145
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:10,479
Speaker 5: Bengals and maybe we see something closer to fifteen sixteen

146
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 5: carries for Carter this week. But I think we like

147
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 5: that their shootout potential in this game, so we could

148
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 5: see a lot of points in this one. Maybe it

149
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 5: is Kinder getting those short yardage touchdowns, but I still

150
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,800
Speaker 5: think that there's a pretty reasonable chance that you get

151
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 5: thirteen fourteen touches minimum for Michael Carter.

152
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: Let's plant our flags on some players here, just kind

153
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:36,799
Speaker 1: of guys, you're going into Championship week with real conviction

154
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,279
Speaker 1: on Ericson, We'll start with you here.

155
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 4: Tony Pollard.

156
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,479
Speaker 3: Can't believe that this is the guy that you could

157
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 3: have faith starting in Week seventeen, out of your fantas

158
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,839
Speaker 3: Football Championships. But that's where we're out with Tony Pardon.

159
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:51,479
Speaker 3: He's been on a heater over the last four games,

160
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,280
Speaker 3: averaging over twenty touches per game over the last three weeks.

161
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,599
Speaker 3: And look, the Titans are playing to put good tape

162
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,120
Speaker 3: out there for cam Ward, their next head coach, and

163
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,040
Speaker 3: Tony Pollard is trying to get paid. He is very

164
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 3: very close to several different contract incentives and they're trying

165
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:08,040
Speaker 3: to get him to these numbers.

166
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 4: Again.

167
00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 3: Last week he had a touchdown wiped off the board.

168
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 3: He only needs two more touchdowns to hit a contract

169
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 3: incentive of seven rushing touchdowns on the year. He's fifty

170
00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 3: one yards away from one thousand yards. So some of

171
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 3: these incentives are not just based on contracts, but it's

172
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 3: based on hitting that one thousand mark. There's a lot

173
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 3: of running backs, a lot of different wide receivers that

174
00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 3: are trying to get to that number. We actually saw

175
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 3: Quot and sut And hit one thousand yards against the

176
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 3: Chiefs last night on Thursday night, and Tony Pollard he's

177
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 3: within striking distance of getting to one thousand rushing yards.

178
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 3: He's fifty one yards away, so they've been feeding him

179
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,640
Speaker 3: a ton. They're playing the Saints at home this week,

180
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 3: and the Saints just put Brian Brazi or then put

181
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,200
Speaker 3: him on injured reserve, but he's probably gonna miss this game.

182
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 3: And he leads the Saints in terms of defensive snaps

183
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 3: and run stops across the defensive line this season.

184
00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 4: We've talked about this all year long.

185
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 3: When a defense loses an interior anchor, like a defensive tackle,

186
00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 3: you see their run splits drastically. Chant happ point The Browns,

187
00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 3: once an elite run defense, they lose Lee Collins and

188
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 3: what happens. They get boat raced by every single runningmick

189
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,680
Speaker 3: that they face. So I think at home, this is

190
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 3: a good spot for Tony Park to continue to be

191
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 3: on his hot streak, gonna get volume, so I think

192
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 3: he can be a top twenty running back.

193
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: In Week seventeen, he is back to back with Michael

194
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 1: Carter in ECR. He's one spot ahead. Actually technically both

195
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 1: they're both outside the top twenty four. They're at twenty

196
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 1: five and twenty six. Do you agree with Pollard being

197
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 1: ahead of Carter?

198
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:31,280
Speaker 5: Absolutely? And I've got Pollard running back eighteen. I mean

199
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 5: three straight hundred yard games, and Erickson mentioned the thousand

200
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,960
Speaker 5: yard mark. No, the key number here is the eleven

201
00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:39,760
Speaker 5: hundred yard mark, because Tony Pollard gets a cool quarter

202
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 5: of a million dollars in a contract bonus. If he

203
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 5: can get to that's one hundred and fifty one yards

204
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 5: over these last two weeks, he'll get that. I think

205
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:52,199
Speaker 5: we do like the matchup for the reasons ericson outline.

206
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 5: So I think he's gonna have a good game this week.

207
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 5: I'm starting him in a championship game as well.

208
00:08:58,600 --> 00:08:59,720
Speaker 2: We're just going through all your.

209
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 4: For He's got seventeen, A lot of players to talk about.

210
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 5: That's true.

211
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 2: That's remarkable. Seven for seven in the semi files.

212
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:11,719
Speaker 5: I don't believe that just couldn't have been couldn't have

213
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 5: been more fortunate. I had a lot of opponents collapse

214
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:15,839
Speaker 5: on me last week, which was.

215
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 1: Very fortunate, very very fun to watch. I'm sure, who

216
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:20,959
Speaker 1: are you planting your flag on?

217
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 5: Here fits Stefan Diggs and his involvement can be sporadic.

218
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 5: Diggs had nine catches for one hundred and five yards

219
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,880
Speaker 5: against the Jets in Week eleven. Then he had three

220
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 5: straight games with fewer than thirty receiving yards before erupting

221
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 5: for nine catches in one hundred and thirty eight yards

222
00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 5: against the Ravens last week. Now, Stefan Diggs gets a

223
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 5: rematch against the Jets, and their pass defense has been

224
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:47,679
Speaker 5: getting completely flambayed the last few weeks. Tyler Shock had

225
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 5: three hundred and eight passing yards against them last week.

226
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:53,959
Speaker 5: Shuck and Taysom Hill both had touchdown passes in that game.

227
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,360
Speaker 5: A week earlier, Trevor Lawrence had three hundred and thirty

228
00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:00,560
Speaker 5: passing yards and five touchdown passes against the Jet. This

229
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 5: defense has already checked out like they are. They're they're

230
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 5: on the field playing, but really in their minds, they're

231
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 5: on a beach in Aruba or Kankun somewhere. Drake May

232
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:14,320
Speaker 5: is gonna absolutely fillay the Jets defense this week, and

233
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:16,560
Speaker 5: Diggs is going to be prominently involved.

234
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 1: So we got we got file At and Flambey, a

235
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:26,480
Speaker 1: couple mixing those up there. He's wide receiver twenty four

236
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 1: in ECR fits just on the back end of a

237
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 1: wide receiver two range.

238
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 2: Sounds like you think that's low.

239
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 5: I do think that's slow. Just checking to see where

240
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 5: I have him I believe he's top twenty for me

241
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:41,200
Speaker 5: wide receiver eighteen.

242
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:46,680
Speaker 2: We'll see for you Erickson sixteen because, oh nice Diggs.

243
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,559
Speaker 3: The thing that with Diggs were always frustrated with the

244
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 3: route participation in the snaps. But you look at the

245
00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 3: Patriots receivers, they're banged up, Like Keisham Bood's probably gonna

246
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 3: play in this game. He is a concussion. Matt Collins

247
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,560
Speaker 3: has not been practicing all week either. He with I

248
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 3: believe an abdomen or oblique injury. So they kind of

249
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 3: have to take Digs out of the bubble rap here.

250
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 3: It's like no, like you have to play seventy eighty

251
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 3: percent of the snaps. The matchup is awesome against the

252
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 3: Jets again chasing these one thousand yard numbers. He is

253
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 3: one hundred and thirty one yards away from one thousand yards,

254
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,600
Speaker 3: which he hasn't done since Buffalo. So remember he got

255
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 3: hurt last year, he didn't get to finish the season.

256
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 3: Let's get Drake May his first one thousand yard receiver.

257
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:30,679
Speaker 3: I think Diggs is gonna be super motivating this game.

258
00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 3: I believe he also has more contract incentives in terms

259
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 3: of receptions, So look, the only thing holding back digs

260
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,080
Speaker 3: this year has been just kind of his usage and

261
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 3: the injury early on the year, but with that all

262
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 3: behind him in this particular spot, yeah, I think he's

263
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:48,320
Speaker 3: locked and load. Another Top twenty guy handholding with Tony Pollard,

264
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 3: Stefon Diggs and your championships, Let's go, Fits Go.

293
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:07,000
Speaker 1: I hit Mike Mayer, our colleague, with a take on

294
00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:10,680
Speaker 1: Twitter this weekend that all Christmas movies as a genre

295
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 1: are a bit overrated. So I will I'll sit that

296
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 1: here on for the podcast as well. I don't hate them.

297
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,360
Speaker 1: I just think that like we go a little, we

298
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:19,400
Speaker 1: go a little heavy on them.

299
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 2: In December.

300
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 5: I don't. I think we can dial it down a

301
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 5: bit except for Diehard.

302
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:27,079
Speaker 1: If Diehard qualifies, I totally agree. It's both the best

303
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 1: Christmasphy and the best action movie ever made in my opinion,

304
00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 1: So I'll I will not fight you there, FITZI, all right,

305
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,600
Speaker 1: let's go to our start hit player debates here. We

306
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:38,840
Speaker 1: will start with the running backs as always. How about

307
00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 1: a couple Kenneth's. We got Kenneth Walker versus Kenneth Gainwell.

308
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: They were closer earlier in the week in ECR, they

309
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:48,640
Speaker 1: have started to spread about a bit. I will pull

310
00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,040
Speaker 1: it back up here just to make sure where we're

311
00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 1: at now. We've got Walker at RB twenty four and

312
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,520
Speaker 1: Gainwell has moved up to RB eighteen. So Walker has

313
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 1: moved down and Gainwell has moved up. So a little

314
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 1: bit of a gap here. Do you see it that

315
00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 1: way as well? Where game Well is an easy choice.

316
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 3: For you, Yes, I do, and it clearly people have

317
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:07,079
Speaker 3: been listening to the Rank show where we did talk

318
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 3: about ken Walker kind of being I think a little

319
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:12,840
Speaker 3: bit overvalued by the ECR, just based on hey, it't

320
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,640
Speaker 3: a monster game and a primetime spot against the Rams.

321
00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,480
Speaker 3: But he's still got out snapped by Zach Sharbanak Zach

322
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 3: Charbonnez still came in in the red zone and scored

323
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,080
Speaker 3: one of their rushing touchdowns at the two point conversion.

324
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 4: That really weird play.

325
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:27,960
Speaker 3: So there's really nothing about Walker's projection that suggests, oh, well,

326
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 3: now this is such a better spot. Again, it's a

327
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 3: good matchup against the Carolina Panthers. It is on the road,

328
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 3: so that you know, sometimes things can go weird in

329
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 3: terms of game script. But I mean in terms of

330
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 3: who has a better role in their respective offense, I

331
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,480
Speaker 3: mean it's got to be Kenned Gamewell. He has seven

332
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,640
Speaker 3: targets in three straight games. Ken Walker has seven targets

333
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 3: combined in the last three games. They like to use

334
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 3: game ball around the red zone, so I think that

335
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 3: even he has kind of like that edge there over

336
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 3: ken Walker. Both guys can rip off big plays. And

337
00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 3: Javin Warren is also on the injuryport this week, So

338
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 3: the Steelers are in a really weird situation because if

339
00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:05,400
Speaker 3: the Ravens lose to the Packers and Lamar Jackson's not

340
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:07,240
Speaker 3: playing in that game, then the Steelers have nothing to

341
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 3: play for the next two weeks. So does that mean

342
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 3: that they lay down to the Browns. Do they take

343
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,360
Speaker 3: off Week eighteen, I would lean towards the ladder there being, hey,

344
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 3: we're gonna rest everybody Week eight team get ready for

345
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 3: the playoffs. But depending on how that game goes against Cleveland,

346
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 3: if Jalen Warren is kind of nicked up, like okay,

347
00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 3: we'll just send down and we'll ride game weell, or

348
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 3: is a scenario where they don't want to play either guy.

349
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 3: So that's kind of the only way that we need

350
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:32,000
Speaker 3: to kind of get You need to stay up to

351
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 3: date with what the Steelers are planning on doing. I

352
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 3: don't think they're going to rest their guys necessarily, just

353
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 3: because they've gone through the whole process of prepping for

354
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,040
Speaker 3: the Browns this week and probably Week eight team where

355
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:42,640
Speaker 3: they take off.

356
00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 4: But that is something to keep in mind with a

357
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:45,400
Speaker 4: lot of Steelers players.

358
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 3: But if they are full go and if the Ravens

359
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 3: beat the Packers, well, Gainwell has just been an absolute monster,

360
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 3: so I would continue to start him. The Browns defense

361
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 3: has been terrible against running backs since they lost some

362
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 3: league Collins, so I think that he is clearly ahead

363
00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:58,160
Speaker 3: of Ken Walker.

364
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:02,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, if it were me, coaching the Steelers, I would like,

365
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:05,240
Speaker 1: you don't want to go two weeks with guy sitting

366
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:06,960
Speaker 1: guys in a row. You'd only want to pick one

367
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 1: of these. I think week eighteen is the clear choice

368
00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:11,600
Speaker 1: to two rest guys. I would still kind of want

369
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:15,120
Speaker 1: to keep everybody sharp here in week seventeen, a just

370
00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 1: like I think schedule wise, that kind of works out

371
00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 1: better for staying as sharp as possible and and be

372
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 1: you know, if I am going to lay down and

373
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 1: let the opponent opponent win, I'd rather the Ravens win

374
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 1: in a meetingless game and get their their draft pick.

375
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 1: Whors like that. They're the bigger threat to you long

376
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 1: term in the division. It feels like so so for

377
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 1: the Steelers, like it would make a lot of logical

378
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:40,000
Speaker 1: sense for them to still try here in week seventeen

379
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:42,680
Speaker 1: and then maybe dial it down a bit in week eighteen.

380
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 2: How do you see this fits?

381
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 5: Uh? In that regard? I see it the same way

382
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,160
Speaker 5: as you. Mike Tomlins an old school coach. He's not

383
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 5: going to lay down two weeks in a row. So yeah,

384
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,560
Speaker 5: and I I well, first of all, I love that

385
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,880
Speaker 5: you came up with the what's the frequency? Kenneth running

386
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 5: back Tobate. That's just outstay pairing here for good, good booking.

387
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:06,720
Speaker 5: And yeah, I mean I would go with Gainwall too,

388
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 5: because we know that the Steelers are going to run

389
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:12,640
Speaker 5: the offense through the running backs and the tight ends.

390
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:16,760
Speaker 5: I mean, that's kind of the Arthur Smith modus operandi anyway.

391
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 5: And look Walker coming off that big game where he

392
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 5: had the two really big plays against the Rams, he

393
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:27,119
Speaker 5: sort of regained his luster, but in the ten games

394
00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 5: before that, he averaged seven point nine a half point

395
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:33,680
Speaker 5: PPR points and hit double digit points twice in those

396
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 5: ten games, typically gets pulled at the goal line in

397
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 5: favor of Zach Charbonet. Walker's usage in the passing game

398
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 5: can be kind of sporadic, so we know that Gainwall

399
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 5: is going to get pretty heavy usage in the passing game.

400
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:50,040
Speaker 5: That's been consistent over the last month. And Running Game two,

401
00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:52,159
Speaker 5: I mean Erickson was talking about how bad the Browns

402
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:55,520
Speaker 5: run defense has been since losing their their run stuffing

403
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:59,639
Speaker 5: defensive tackle Elite Collins. First game without Collins, Tony Pollard

404
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:02,719
Speaker 5: one hundred sixty one rushing yards and two touchdowns. Second

405
00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:06,240
Speaker 5: game without Collins, DeAndre Swift ninety eight rushing yards two touchdowns.

406
00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 5: Last week James Cook one hundred and seventeen rushing yards,

407
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:13,480
Speaker 5: two touchdowns. We're seeing a theme here, So maybe it's

408
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,720
Speaker 5: Jalen Warren getting a little more of the rushing work.

409
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 5: But Gamell's still going to get probably eight to twelve

410
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:23,400
Speaker 5: carries against this bad run defense and add a lot

411
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:26,160
Speaker 5: of receiving value too. So I think he's a pretty

412
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,359
Speaker 5: easy choice and almost a must start this week.

413
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 1: Ericson, I feel like for our Tuesday show next year,

414
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:34,920
Speaker 1: this is a lesson we should remember we talked a

415
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,080
Speaker 1: little bit about this early in the year, like looking

416
00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 1: ahead to playoff schedules. A lot of people were very

417
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,919
Speaker 1: afraid of the Browns defense, like when talking about Trades

418
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 1: earlier in the year and trying to look at him

419
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:47,320
Speaker 1: through this perspective, And now, of course this does not

420
00:18:47,359 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 1: look like a scary run defense at all. I think

421
00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,480
Speaker 1: the lesson for me just thinking in next year is

422
00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,639
Speaker 1: if a team's really bad early in the year, I

423
00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,439
Speaker 1: want to target them, because like you know, tight ends

424
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:00,399
Speaker 1: against the Bengals, that's still the case. But if a

425
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,960
Speaker 1: team's really good, a defense is really good, and I

426
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:04,120
Speaker 1: don't expect that team.

427
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 2: To be very good long term.

428
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 1: I'm not going to be afraid of that, you know,

429
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:09,960
Speaker 1: in terms of trades, and I think it's just kind

430
00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:13,200
Speaker 1: of a fool's errand to you know, project that out

431
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 1: ahead because it could be an injury, It could be

432
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:16,959
Speaker 1: just lack of effort late in the season, if if

433
00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:19,639
Speaker 1: your seasons over, a whole lot of reasons why the

434
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 1: defense maybe doesn't look quite as scary and you know,

435
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:25,280
Speaker 1: non startable against as it maybe did earlier.

436
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:26,880
Speaker 2: Also fits.

437
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:28,880
Speaker 1: Did you think I was going to get this what's

438
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,919
Speaker 1: the frequency Kenneth reference? I googled it as soon as

439
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 1: you said it, and it's a song from nineteen ninety four.

440
00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:36,920
Speaker 1: There's no chance I was going to know that.

441
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 5: You've heard of Ram before. You're familiar.

442
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:40,640
Speaker 2: I've heard of Ram.

443
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:43,080
Speaker 1: I'm not sure how many Ram songs I could name,

444
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:46,440
Speaker 1: but I am aware of the band Ram all right.

445
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,160
Speaker 1: So so Gainwell appears just very quickly because I want

446
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 1: to move on Gainwell or Jalen Warren? Is it Gainwell

447
00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,080
Speaker 1: for both of you guys? They are very close in

448
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:56,040
Speaker 1: ecr fits.

449
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,240
Speaker 5: It's actually Warren for me because I think he's probably

450
00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:02,040
Speaker 5: going to have more of the rushing duties and I

451
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 5: think that's where you can really make hey against the

452
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 5: Browns game.

453
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 2: Well's once spot ahead ericson of Warren.

454
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 3: I have gamble ahead as well. Warren beg on the

455
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:14,440
Speaker 3: injury report this week does slightly concern me. Just want

456
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,520
Speaker 3: to account for it because if they find that they're

457
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:19,960
Speaker 3: in a situation where let's say the Browns are up

458
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,679
Speaker 3: steels are we can her really pull back things in

459
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 3: the second half. Let's get Warren out of there. We

460
00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:26,320
Speaker 3: know he had a I think is a hip injury,

461
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 3: that is what he's dealing with. So again trying to

462
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:30,320
Speaker 3: read the TV is, if they're ever going to pull

463
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 3: back on any player would be someone that maybe is

464
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 3: a tad bit nicked up.

465
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 4: If that is Jalen Warren, then you could see them

466
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:37,240
Speaker 4: lean a little bit more on Gainwell.

467
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:40,120
Speaker 3: And then the thing with Gamewell too is I mean

468
00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:42,040
Speaker 3: I feel like he could see like double digit targets

469
00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 3: in this game potentially without DK Metcalf, So like that's

470
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,320
Speaker 3: another thing where he has been preferred a little bit

471
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,440
Speaker 3: more than Jalen Warren in the passing game. And obviously

472
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 3: he can also be really efficient against this Browns run

473
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:55,600
Speaker 3: defense too. So again I have them ranked essentially back

474
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 3: to back twenty gain Well, I had Aaron Jones at

475
00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 3: twenty one and then Jalen Warren to twenty two.

476
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:03,639
Speaker 5: How do you have those guys ranked? Visa VI O'marian

477
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 5: Hampton ericson, I.

478
00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 3: Got Hampton way. He'll depends on what plays. It depends

479
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,600
Speaker 3: on if Vydell plays or not. Like he'll he'll be adjusted,

480
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 3: he'll have to move down.

481
00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:15,720
Speaker 1: Hampton is one spot ahead of both of them at

482
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 1: ECR for what it's worth.

483
00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:20,919
Speaker 2: Uh, all right, let's go to another running back.

484
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 1: Debate here, Breyce Hall or Tyrone, Tracy Junior Erickson.

485
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:26,760
Speaker 2: I'll start with you here. Who do you like better?

486
00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm pretty torn on these two guys. I like

487
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:32,920
Speaker 3: both of them in their respective matchups. I just keep

488
00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:35,399
Speaker 3: pointing out that the Patriot run evens is not good, Like,

489
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:39,639
Speaker 3: don't look at the season long stats against them, because

490
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 3: they're all banged up all over the place the last

491
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 3: four weeks since Week twelve, running back finishes against the

492
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 3: Patriots RB thirteen, RB eight, RB one, and RB eight.

493
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 4: Robert Splaine is still on the injury report.

494
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 3: Milton Williams has been designated to return from IR but

495
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,399
Speaker 3: it's still not confirmed whether he's not playing or not.

496
00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,200
Speaker 3: Maybe that could sway me moving Town Tracy ahead of

497
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:02,200
Speaker 3: Breece Hall, But I just I want to keep attacking

498
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 3: this Patriot's run defense with opposing running backs. And yeah,

499
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 3: I get Breese has been disappointed. He plays on the Jets.

500
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 3: It's not an exciting offense, but he hasn't seen anything

501
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,720
Speaker 3: lower than fourteen touches since week ten. He had eighteen

502
00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:17,240
Speaker 3: total touches last week, so he's seeing volume. He's explosive

503
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:19,399
Speaker 3: pass catcher, and he's got a good matchup, and he's

504
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,640
Speaker 3: playing at home. Like those are enough of reasons where

505
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:24,879
Speaker 3: it's like, okay, like I could see a ceiling spot

506
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:27,159
Speaker 3: here for Brees Hall. But then again I look at

507
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:29,200
Speaker 3: Tylan Tracy and I think, I mean, he's also in

508
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,600
Speaker 3: a pretty decent spot here too. Again against the Las

509
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:33,920
Speaker 3: Vegas Raiders, their team that is more of a run

510
00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 3: funnel than a pass funnel, especially if we see the

511
00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:39,119
Speaker 3: Giants do what they did last week offensively, which was

512
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,199
Speaker 3: let's run the ball fifteen straight times and not have

513
00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 3: Jackson Dark attempt a pass. So that obviously works in

514
00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:46,840
Speaker 3: favor of Tyland. Tracy and Tracy also have been better

515
00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:49,359
Speaker 3: than Brees saw Over the last five games, Tracy has

516
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:52,720
Speaker 3: at least seventy one yards from scrimmage, so he's been

517
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,280
Speaker 3: really consistent both as a rusher and receiver. I do

518
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 3: get some concerns about the split with Devin Singletary, especially

519
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:01,200
Speaker 3: around the goal line, because they're frequently like to take

520
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:04,400
Speaker 3: him out and put Devin Singletary in full Zach Sharpenay fashion.

521
00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:08,679
Speaker 3: And the big thing with the Giants is Andrew Thomas

522
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:10,600
Speaker 3: is probably not gonna play in this game. He is

523
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,320
Speaker 3: their best offensive lineman by far, and he kind of

524
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:17,679
Speaker 3: has like a a Trent Williams type of impact where

525
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 3: you take out that guy and the entire offensive line

526
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:24,959
Speaker 3: can crumble and then the offense becomes super dysfunctional. So

527
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:27,239
Speaker 3: not only is Andrew Thomas the best pass blocker, he's

528
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 3: also the best run blocker on the Giants. Max Crosby, Like,

529
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:34,520
Speaker 3: that guy has a motor like no other player in

530
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:36,960
Speaker 3: the NFL. Like it doesn't matter what the score is,

531
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 3: it doesn't matter what his team's record is. He is

532
00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 3: coming after the quarterback no matter what, and after the

533
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:44,600
Speaker 3: running back as both a pass rusher and run defender.

534
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,919
Speaker 3: So without Andrew Thomas, I think that's Ultimately, what kind

535
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,679
Speaker 3: of pushes me just to have resolces slightly ahead because

536
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,639
Speaker 3: I've just seen this Giants offense without Thomas before and

537
00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:56,720
Speaker 3: it's a disaster. And they're also playing on the road

538
00:23:56,760 --> 00:24:00,080
Speaker 3: this week, so leans slightly towards bresee. But I'm not

539
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:03,720
Speaker 3: really opposed to using both guys as low end RB

540
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:04,960
Speaker 3: two flex plays.

541
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:05,560
Speaker 5: Fitz.

542
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,439
Speaker 1: Tracy is five spots ahead in ECR. He's RB twenty two.

543
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 1: This is in HALFVPR scoring, by the way, He's RB

544
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:13,520
Speaker 1: twenty two. Brice Hall RB twenty seven.

545
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:20,000
Speaker 5: So I have a gap of let's see, yeah, five

546
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 5: spots also between Tracy and Hall. I like Tracy Moore

547
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,920
Speaker 5: and Tracy's had eighteen touches each of the last two weeks.

548
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,200
Speaker 5: And I think the Giants prime directive here in their

549
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 5: last couple of games is to not get their franchise

550
00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:36,720
Speaker 5: quarterback destroyed in the last couple of weeks, keep him

551
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:40,720
Speaker 5: fresh for twenty twenty six. And a big way to

552
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,280
Speaker 5: do that with Andrew Thomas out is just to run

553
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:45,199
Speaker 5: the heck out of the ball against the Raiders, and

554
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 5: I think that's what the Giants are going to do.

555
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,120
Speaker 5: Ericson and I talked about Bresall in the ranking show,

556
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:53,360
Speaker 5: and he's kind of interested in Hall because of the matchup.

557
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:56,040
Speaker 5: I almost think the matchup, I don't want to say

558
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:59,439
Speaker 5: it's irrelevant. I think it's less relevant. I think what

559
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:03,480
Speaker 5: sort of super seeds The matchup is just the utter

560
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,040
Speaker 5: incompetence of the Jets offense right now with Brady Cook

561
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:10,280
Speaker 5: at quarterback. So in two starts, the two starts Brady

562
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 5: Cook has made for the Jets, bres Hall has averaged

563
00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:15,360
Speaker 5: fifty yards from scrimmage and hasn't scored a touchdown. He's

564
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:19,280
Speaker 5: been RB forty seven and RB forty in fantasy scoring

565
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 5: the last two weeks. I just I don't want to

566
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,399
Speaker 5: play Breshall on a championship game. Fits.

567
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,639
Speaker 1: Who do you think wins that Giants Raiders game, by

568
00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:29,760
Speaker 1: the way, and therefore loses the number one pick?

569
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 2: Probably?

570
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:32,520
Speaker 5: I feel like it would be a Raiders thing to

571
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 5: do to win that game and not get the first

572
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:38,199
Speaker 5: pick when they so desperately need a quarterback, and so

573
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:40,480
Speaker 5: I tend to think the Raiders are gonna win.

574
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 3: Ericson, I want no part of wagering on this particular

575
00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:50,119
Speaker 3: game because you don't know what, like what each team

576
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 3: is trying to do, and like, what's their plan if

577
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:55,360
Speaker 3: it's a close game, could you just see like, hey,

578
00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:57,200
Speaker 3: g you know, just just gotta throw a pick here,

579
00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:00,280
Speaker 3: Like you just gotta do it. Like the play call's

580
00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,159
Speaker 3: gonna come in that has a zero percent chance of

581
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:02,840
Speaker 3: being completed.

582
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 4: It's like, no, you gotta do this play. It's gonna work.

583
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 3: They're gonna run that stupid pick play that got picked

584
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:09,639
Speaker 3: off in the Super Bowl that Pete Carroll called instead

585
00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:10,960
Speaker 3: of running the ball to Marshall w so they can

586
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:12,720
Speaker 3: do the same thing. Right, It's gonna be genty he's

587
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:14,919
Speaker 3: he's been eating all game and they're not gonna hand

588
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:16,560
Speaker 3: off him. They're gonna throw it and they're gonna lose

589
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:19,520
Speaker 3: because of some interceptions. So yeah, I don't know who's

590
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:21,679
Speaker 3: going to win this game. I guess the thing with

591
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:23,880
Speaker 3: the Giants is they were in this similar situation last

592
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:28,040
Speaker 3: year and then Drew Locke had like this career game,

593
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:32,320
Speaker 3: so they've been here before. But they also theoretically have

594
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:35,399
Speaker 3: their franchise quarterback with Jackson. I mean, I think that

595
00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:38,000
Speaker 3: he can be a franchise quarterback. But the Giants will

596
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 3: have a new coaching staff and also, you know, my

597
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,640
Speaker 3: kaf goes still kind of coaching for his job, right,

598
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,359
Speaker 3: like whether it's for the Giants next year or for

599
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:50,720
Speaker 3: another team down the line. Now, I don't know, we'll

600
00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 3: all find out together, right, who really wanted to win

601
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 3: this game?

602
00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:54,080
Speaker 4: Yeah?

603
00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 1: And I obviously you'd rather have the higher pick, but

604
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 1: like I mean the Texans a couple of years ago too,

605
00:26:58,000 --> 00:26:59,880
Speaker 1: like they had that meaningless win in the last game

606
00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,560
Speaker 1: season and then so they got Stroud instead of Bryce Young,

607
00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 1: which has largely looked, you know, really good, Like you

608
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,440
Speaker 1: maybe there's some karma with winning the game when you

609
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:08,680
Speaker 1: know it seems obviously you should.

610
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 3: A lot of coaches talk about how you want to

611
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,359
Speaker 3: build like a winning yeah, like you don't want to

612
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,520
Speaker 3: just lose on purpose, right, And the way that coaches

613
00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 3: get around it is you just, well, we're going to

614
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 3: start all of our bad players and then they'll play

615
00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,160
Speaker 3: their hardest, so they're trying to win, but we're putting

616
00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:27,040
Speaker 3: them in a position where the likelihood of them winning

617
00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:29,159
Speaker 3: is very very low. And that's probably the case like

618
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:31,200
Speaker 3: with like the Jets for example.

619
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 1: Right, tank, but players don't like you want the players

620
00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:35,240
Speaker 1: to try.

621
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,359
Speaker 5: Right, So it's the moves the coaches in the front

622
00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:42,000
Speaker 5: office makes and like we saw brock Bauers try to

623
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,679
Speaker 5: play through a PCL injury earlier this year and be

624
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:48,119
Speaker 5: totally ineffective. Lately, he's been playing pretty well and now

625
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:49,880
Speaker 5: all of a sudden that the Raiders are putting him

626
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:56,840
Speaker 5: on IR for like a precautionary measure. Okay, yeah, okay.

627
00:27:55,440 --> 00:28:00,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, Let's go to some of our receiver debates here.

628
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:06,720
Speaker 1: How about Zay Flowers versus Jalen Waddle. Flowers has been playing.

629
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:12,760
Speaker 1: You know, I have probably been as vocal as Flowers.

630
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,680
Speaker 1: I won't say hater, but fader in terms of fantasy

631
00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:18,680
Speaker 1: you know, throughout the season as there is last three

632
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,879
Speaker 1: weeks wide receiver eight, wide receiver twenty, wide receiver nine,

633
00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:24,960
Speaker 1: and it feels like he maybe even has been leaving

634
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,120
Speaker 1: a little bit on the field. But of course now

635
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:29,400
Speaker 1: it's Tyler Huntley in all likelihood as of right now,

636
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 1: Lamar's technically so doubtful he's not gonna play. So it's

637
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,200
Speaker 1: gonna be Zay Flowers with Tyler Huntley going up against

638
00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:37,400
Speaker 1: Jaylen Waddle with his own quarterback question marks here, Fitz,

639
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 1: I'll start with you on this one. Who do you

640
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,400
Speaker 1: have ranked higres Jay Flowers or Jalen Wattle.

641
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 5: Flowers, He's posted his three highest fantasy point totals of

642
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 5: the season in his last three games. He's giving us

643
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 5: a decent weekly floor worm. I know the touchdown output

644
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,720
Speaker 5: has been disappointing this year, but Flowers has had at

645
00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 5: least five catches in fourteen of his fifteen games this year.

646
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:01,640
Speaker 5: He said at least sixty receiving yards in eleven of

647
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:04,200
Speaker 5: fifteen games, and one of the misses was a fifty

648
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 5: eight yard game. So the floor is pretty sturdy here,

649
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 5: and we've been getting some ceiling out of him lately.

650
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 5: So I don't know if there's a huge drop off

651
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:20,320
Speaker 5: in the quality of the receiving outlook. I guess going

652
00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:21,400
Speaker 5: from Jackson.

653
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:22,800
Speaker 2: To Hotly, let's say careful.

654
00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:25,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, I know, I mean, like the Lamar's great, but

655
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:28,480
Speaker 5: he hasn't been Lamar for most of this season. That's

656
00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:31,960
Speaker 5: kind of why I say that. Meanwhile, I do think

657
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 5: there has been a drop off from you know, Tua,

658
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:40,040
Speaker 5: and I know Tua is not everyone's favorite quarterback, but

659
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:43,200
Speaker 5: going from him to Quinn yours like that that hurts Wattle,

660
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,840
Speaker 5: And I know yours managed to throw for two hundred

661
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 5: and sixty yards last week, but no touchdowns. I just

662
00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:52,960
Speaker 5: I think Flowers is a safer play this week than Wattle.

663
00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:55,960
Speaker 1: Is I just a note of correction, and maybe I

664
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 1: misheard you, so apologizes if I did. It sounded like

665
00:29:57,880 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 1: you said that he's had his three best games of

666
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,320
Speaker 1: the season last three weeks. That's except Week one, where

667
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:03,800
Speaker 1: he had his best game of the story.

668
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:04,800
Speaker 5: That's right, that's right.

669
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:07,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was his best game of the year. But

670
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:09,880
Speaker 1: except for Week one, his best three of the season.

671
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 5: Have been the last six Week two.

672
00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:14,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, yeah, this is one where and by the way,

673
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 1: on the rankings in ECR, Flowers is eight wide receiver eighteen,

674
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 1: Wattle is wide receiver twenty and Justin Jefferson was the

675
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 1: guy in the middle already played, so amongst the players

676
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:26,960
Speaker 1: who haven't played yet, they are back to back in

677
00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:29,920
Speaker 1: ECR ericson who do you like better between Flowers? You've

678
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,760
Speaker 1: been a Wattle guy for years. Really may see ahead

679
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:33,920
Speaker 1: of Flowers in this case too.

680
00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 3: I do have Wattle ahead of Flowers, and I agree

681
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,000
Speaker 3: with all the points that fits made about Flowers definitely

682
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:43,800
Speaker 3: offering the higher floor. But when I'm in my championships,

683
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 3: I'm not trying to think about floor. I'm thinking about Okay,

684
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:50,000
Speaker 3: who could have a bonkers type of game, And I

685
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:53,440
Speaker 3: look at Buccaneers Dolphins and I see this game could

686
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 3: get nuts. Whereas Ravens going on the road to play

687
00:30:57,080 --> 00:31:01,200
Speaker 3: at Lambeau, which is one of the heaviest under stadiums

688
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:03,600
Speaker 3: this year. With the Packers defense, now, I know that

689
00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 3: their secondary can be had, and that's why Flowers does

690
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 3: have a high floor. But it comes down to the touchdowns. Right,

691
00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:11,960
Speaker 3: are his odds of scoring higher because he has Tyler

692
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:13,000
Speaker 3: Hartley as his quarterback?

693
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:14,880
Speaker 4: I would probably say no.

694
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:17,880
Speaker 3: Now, not to say that Waddle has like this enormous

695
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:21,280
Speaker 3: touchdown equity at Quetch to attach to quinn Ewers, But

696
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:24,240
Speaker 3: when you're facing the Buccaneers defense, everyone does the exact

697
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 3: same thing. They just throw, throw, throw, and throw. So

698
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 3: it just takes Waddle for one big play, you know,

699
00:31:30,560 --> 00:31:33,200
Speaker 3: pass interference defender falls down or something along those lines

700
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,400
Speaker 3: where he can break off a big run. And I

701
00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 3: just think that, look last week, he was really good

702
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:40,320
Speaker 3: five or seven or shouldn't say really good modest five

703
00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:43,000
Speaker 3: or seventy two on nine targets. But that's basically the

704
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,560
Speaker 3: very similar stat line that Zay Flowers put up in

705
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,840
Speaker 3: Tyler's Huntley's first start this year seven for sixty three

706
00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:51,240
Speaker 3: on nine targets, so both guys should see around double

707
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:54,240
Speaker 3: digit targets. I just think from a game script perspective,

708
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 3: which game could really be a shootout? I think it's

709
00:31:57,600 --> 00:32:02,280
Speaker 3: probably the Buccaneers and the Dolphins game in Miami versus

710
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:06,440
Speaker 3: this game with potentially backup quarterbacks on both sides at

711
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:07,360
Speaker 3: lambeau Field.

712
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:09,400
Speaker 4: So I do think it's close.

713
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:11,480
Speaker 3: If you want to lean in towards the floor, I

714
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 3: would agree that it probably is a Flowers, But I

715
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:17,960
Speaker 3: think Waddle has a potential ceiling spot, not because of

716
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:20,680
Speaker 3: his quarterback, but because of the matchup against the Buccaneers

717
00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:23,800
Speaker 3: defense that we've seen. I mean, Kyle Pitts had a

718
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:25,680
Speaker 3: pretty good game against the Buccaneers a couple weeks ago

719
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 3: with the backup quarterback.

720
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,760
Speaker 4: He was pretty good, so I think Waddle would be.

721
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 1: I mean, Kirk Cousins and Quinn Yewers are not really

722
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,200
Speaker 1: comparable at this current backup quarterbacks.

723
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:39,040
Speaker 2: That's that's yes, in that sense, they are.

724
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:42,680
Speaker 1: I don't know, I guess it feels a little weird

725
00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:45,320
Speaker 1: for me to think about either of these players in

726
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,080
Speaker 1: terms of ceiling because they have this season they have

727
00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:51,040
Speaker 1: not really been ceiling players for the most part. Uh,

728
00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:55,720
Speaker 1: they have been more about the floor. I mean Flowers

729
00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 1: in particular in that regard. But Waddle only has one

730
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:01,720
Speaker 1: hundred yards receiving game this season. Like, It's not like

731
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:04,880
Speaker 1: he's had these huge blow up spots either for the

732
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:05,440
Speaker 1: most part.

733
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 2: So do you see the.

734
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:11,080
Speaker 1: Game script similarly to Ericsson fits in terms of like

735
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:13,360
Speaker 1: I mean it just as a Packers fan, like Ravens

736
00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:15,840
Speaker 1: Packers not really having a good chance of being this

737
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:17,200
Speaker 1: high octane game.

738
00:33:17,960 --> 00:33:21,320
Speaker 5: I kind of do you know, it seemed like Jordan

739
00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:24,000
Speaker 5: Love was on track to start and I don't know

740
00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 5: if that changes now that the Lions lost and the

741
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:30,160
Speaker 5: Packers have their spot assured and you know they can't

742
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:34,240
Speaker 5: I don't Maybe technically they could earn a home game

743
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:36,680
Speaker 5: if like the Bears lose out and the Packers went out,

744
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:38,960
Speaker 5: but I don't think that's gonna happen. So maybe they

745
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:42,920
Speaker 5: don't start Love this week. Yeah, I don't know, but

746
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:46,520
Speaker 5: I agree there's probably more of a chance for fireworks

747
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 5: and Buccaneers Dolphins than there isn't Ravens Packers.

748
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,560
Speaker 1: Let's go to our second wide receiver debate here? How

749
00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:57,440
Speaker 1: about DJ Moore or Michael Wilson fits. I will start

750
00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 1: with you here, who do you like better? And we

751
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:03,600
Speaker 1: seventeen DJ Moore obviously coming off of his you know,

752
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 1: really exciting finish last week, he's wide receiver twenty two

753
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:10,799
Speaker 1: or Michael Wilson, who is wide receiver twenty six in

754
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:12,359
Speaker 1: that great matchup with the Bengals.

755
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:15,120
Speaker 5: Yeah, real exciting finish last week for DJ Moore. Thanks

756
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:18,040
Speaker 5: for I am leaning Michael Wilson.

757
00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 2: I'm really saying that.

758
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:21,000
Speaker 1: In my head, I was like, uh craft that was

759
00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:23,400
Speaker 1: against the Packers and now as excited.

760
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:25,360
Speaker 4: To finish as Raven's Patriots was. Worm that was.

761
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,560
Speaker 2: There's a reason we didn't do the Tuesday showed those works.

762
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:34,680
Speaker 5: So I'm leaning Michael Wilson over Dj Moore. DJ Moore

763
00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:37,400
Speaker 5: is on a little bit of a heater, with touchdowns

764
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:39,959
Speaker 5: three in his last two games, five in his last

765
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,800
Speaker 5: five games. But even with Romo Dune San Luther Burden

766
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:46,480
Speaker 5: out last week against the Packers, More only had seven targets,

767
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 5: and if that game had not gone to overtime where

768
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 5: he got the long touchdown catch, he would have finished

769
00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:57,960
Speaker 5: with four catches for fifty one yards, so Wilson also

770
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:00,840
Speaker 5: on a heater with touchdowns four in his last three games.

771
00:35:01,200 --> 00:35:04,600
Speaker 5: I guess the fear is that well, one is that

772
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:09,239
Speaker 5: his target count dropped last week with Marvin Harrison Junior back,

773
00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:12,400
Speaker 5: even though it seems to me like Marvin Harrison Junior

774
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:15,920
Speaker 5: is not fully healthy. But I guess maybe the bigger

775
00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:19,400
Speaker 5: fear is that the Cardinals tight ends run wild against

776
00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:23,080
Speaker 5: the Broncos, mostly Trey McBride but maybe Elijah Higgins two,

777
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:26,480
Speaker 5: and the receivers aren't as involved like the Bengals have

778
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:30,080
Speaker 5: allowed the fourth fewest fantasy points I believe to wide

779
00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:32,920
Speaker 5: receivers and far and away the most fantasy points to the

780
00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:37,719
Speaker 5: tight ends. And before Week sixteen, Wilson had gotten double

781
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:39,960
Speaker 5: digits in four of his previous five games. But then

782
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:42,960
Speaker 5: Harrison Junior came back last week and Wilson only had

783
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:45,720
Speaker 5: three targets, although he still managed to finish with fifty

784
00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:50,120
Speaker 5: two yards in a touchdown. I'm pretty optimistic though, that

785
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:52,879
Speaker 5: Joe Burrow and the Bengals can push the Cardinals into

786
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,719
Speaker 5: a shootout where a lot of the pass catchers eat

787
00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 5: for both teams. I don't think there's much of a

788
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:01,280
Speaker 5: chance of the Bears getting into a show shootout, because

789
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,640
Speaker 5: that's just not how they want to play. Like they

790
00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:05,279
Speaker 5: have an excellent running game. They want to run the

791
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:08,399
Speaker 5: ball successfully so that it could be a high scoring game.

792
00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:10,439
Speaker 5: But I don't think it'll be a high scoring game

793
00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:14,600
Speaker 5: with Caleb Williams throwing forty passes. So I think there's

794
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:17,319
Speaker 5: a little bit of an edge for Wilson here.

795
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:20,840
Speaker 1: It is crazy how straightforward it's been like in terms

796
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 1: of if Marvin Harrison Juniors in the field or not

797
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:25,800
Speaker 1: for Michael Wilson, Like cause you mentioned like the double

798
00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:27,920
Speaker 1: digit targets in four the last five games, it's not

799
00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:29,920
Speaker 1: just double digit in three of those four games, it

800
00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:34,200
Speaker 1: was fifteen plus targets is eighteen, fifteen, sixteen, and then eleven.

801
00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:36,560
Speaker 1: And then as soon as Marvin Harrison Junior's back in

802
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:39,399
Speaker 1: the field, even not fully healthy, even not really having

803
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:42,440
Speaker 1: been producing when he was on the field, Michael Wilson

804
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:46,280
Speaker 1: drops down to three targets. It's just like kind of gobsmacking, honestly.

805
00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:49,279
Speaker 5: Yeah, we didn't get the crazy like Brissette had been

806
00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:52,120
Speaker 5: throwing a lot, like he had typically been going over

807
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 5: forty pass attempts, and it was just that the Cardinals

808
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:57,520
Speaker 5: didn't run a lot of plays last week and that

809
00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:00,160
Speaker 5: came against the Falcons, so Brisette had I think think

810
00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:03,239
Speaker 5: thirty one pass attempts. If he goes over forty, I

811
00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:06,560
Speaker 5: think the volume will be fine for Wilson, maybe not

812
00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:10,040
Speaker 5: double digits, but I think he'll get seven or eight targets.

813
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:13,160
Speaker 5: If you know Bersett is back up to forty pass attempts.

814
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:16,719
Speaker 2: Ericson who do you prefer DJ Moore or Michael Wilson, Yeah,

815
00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:17,280
Speaker 2: I don't.

816
00:37:17,080 --> 00:37:19,840
Speaker 3: Love either guy, to be totally honest, I think that

817
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:23,359
Speaker 3: I would default the DJ Moore, although it does seem

818
00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:26,160
Speaker 3: like Luther Burden's going to play in this game. So

819
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:28,960
Speaker 3: that's something that's concerning about More. And to fit his point,

820
00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:30,879
Speaker 3: More has only seen six targets peringume in the last

821
00:37:30,920 --> 00:37:33,920
Speaker 3: two weeks, right, he hasn't been this monster target earned

822
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:37,560
Speaker 3: despite the injuries to some of these other Bears pass catchers.

823
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:40,600
Speaker 3: I like his matchup more against the forty nine Ers.

824
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:44,480
Speaker 3: We saw Philip Rivers throw on this forty nine Ers defense, like,

825
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:47,239
Speaker 3: so I like that. And if you do get a

826
00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:50,040
Speaker 3: chance where it is negative game script because I don't

827
00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:51,640
Speaker 3: know how the Bears defense is going to stop the

828
00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:54,759
Speaker 3: death Star that is the forty nine ers offense with

829
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:58,400
Speaker 3: Kyle Shanahan and Brock Purty really operating at I mean,

830
00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:01,440
Speaker 3: they're on fire right now. So I kind of like

831
00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:05,200
Speaker 3: that for the Bears passing game. Whereas Michael Wilson, I'm

832
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:08,480
Speaker 3: just not trying to overthink this. You start him when

833
00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:11,440
Speaker 3: Marvin Harrison Junior is out, and you don't start him

834
00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:12,080
Speaker 3: when he's in.

835
00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 4: And last week, I feel.

836
00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:16,160
Speaker 3: Like the fantas manager's kind of got bailed out, where

837
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:18,520
Speaker 3: like he had one long pass, he caught the touchdown

838
00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:20,640
Speaker 3: and you feel, Okay, he made it through. But I

839
00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:22,480
Speaker 3: feel like you're playing with fire if you go back

840
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:26,280
Speaker 3: to Michael Wilson when you look at all the data

841
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:29,320
Speaker 3: we have when he's on the field with Marvin Harrison Junior,

842
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:32,880
Speaker 3: Michael Wilson doesn't get targets. And it's just so obvious

843
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:35,600
Speaker 3: to see in the games, in the game logs from

844
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:38,400
Speaker 3: this year from last year, like when they're both on

845
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:41,439
Speaker 3: the field, Michael Wilson doesn't get targeted nearly as much

846
00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:44,640
Speaker 3: when Marvin Harrison is playing and the matchup, how do

847
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:47,160
Speaker 3: you attack the Bengals so with tight ends and running backs,

848
00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:51,719
Speaker 3: So I think even If this game does have a

849
00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:54,440
Speaker 3: lot of high scoring, it's not because of Michael Wilson

850
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:55,960
Speaker 3: and Marvin I kind of feel like they just kind

851
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:59,480
Speaker 3: of cannibalize each other where they're going to eat into whatever.

852
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:02,279
Speaker 3: All amount of targets go to the wide receivers, and

853
00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:03,960
Speaker 3: it's gonna be I mean, Trey mc bride had a

854
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:07,839
Speaker 3: bad game last week, so that that output from last

855
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:09,440
Speaker 3: week is probably going to at least a double or

856
00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:12,160
Speaker 3: even triple against the Cincinnati Bengals because he was held

857
00:39:12,239 --> 00:39:15,080
Speaker 3: under five catches for the first time, and I don't

858
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,160
Speaker 3: know how long his streak of having at least five

859
00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:20,040
Speaker 3: receptions in a game, So I think that's gonna change.

860
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:21,920
Speaker 3: The Bengals are lying the fewest points per game to

861
00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 3: wide receivers this season, so I'm trying to find alternatives

862
00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:28,759
Speaker 3: to Michael Wilson. I do you guys know what Michael

863
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:31,440
Speaker 3: Wilson's receptions prop this week is. I almost fell out

864
00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:33,160
Speaker 3: of my chair when I saw what it was.

865
00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:34,040
Speaker 4: What do you think it is?

866
00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:35,880
Speaker 5: So like four and a half?

867
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:37,560
Speaker 4: It's five and a half.

868
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:41,319
Speaker 5: Jeez, that's crazy, and I thought four and a half

869
00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:44,040
Speaker 5: would have been too high. Five and a half is crazy.

870
00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:49,600
Speaker 3: I was like, I mean, like again, there's there's never

871
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:51,000
Speaker 3: a lock of all locks.

872
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:52,440
Speaker 4: But I mean, come on.

873
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:56,560
Speaker 5: If there was one, is it like minus two to

874
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 5: bet the under on that? Or no?

875
00:39:58,719 --> 00:40:00,920
Speaker 3: It's actually so you can get at four and a half.

876
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:03,680
Speaker 3: It's plus money at under four and a half. Wow,

877
00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:06,399
Speaker 3: And thinks I mean it's juicy. I think it's minus

878
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:09,000
Speaker 3: one fifty, so it is a juicier one. But I mean,

879
00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:12,040
Speaker 3: hey it is. Can't go broke, make it a profit?

880
00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:13,239
Speaker 5: Right right?

881
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:17,480
Speaker 1: All right, let's get to our more rapid fire starts

882
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:19,960
Speaker 1: at decisions here. We'll do another running back one. We're

883
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:22,360
Speaker 1: just talking about the Bears. How about Kyle Mcanungai or

884
00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:25,840
Speaker 1: Blake Koram? Fits Who do you like better? Manunga or Koram.

885
00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 5: I've quorum ranked one spot higher. Pretty similar outlooks. Two

886
00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:34,040
Speaker 5: backup running backs who typically get around a dozen touches

887
00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:37,319
Speaker 5: a game and playing strong running games behind very good

888
00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:39,680
Speaker 5: offensive lines. I just think the Rams have a better

889
00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:42,240
Speaker 5: offense than the Bears, and they have a higher employ

890
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:45,120
Speaker 5: implied vegas point total than the Bears. I think the

891
00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:47,600
Speaker 5: Rams implied total it's like twenty eight and a half

892
00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:50,640
Speaker 5: and Bears are around twenty four and a half, just

893
00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,520
Speaker 5: better touchdown odds with Koram, but this one's close.

894
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:55,719
Speaker 1: The other thing I wanted to point out just on

895
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:57,440
Speaker 1: that game because we talked about it as kind of

896
00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:59,959
Speaker 1: this big, exciting, you know, finish to the title game

897
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:02,759
Speaker 1: front of the show. Scott Pinowski was tweeting about this

898
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:06,040
Speaker 1: the other day. There's a chance that the Rams are

899
00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:09,360
Speaker 1: not able to win the division going into that game,

900
00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:12,759
Speaker 1: depending on what happens with Seattle and San Francisco. And

901
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:15,320
Speaker 1: if that's the case, we know McVeigh has been aggressive

902
00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:17,560
Speaker 1: about resting guys in the past. Again kind of similar

903
00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:20,360
Speaker 1: to talking about the Steelers. We're still two weeks away,

904
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:24,000
Speaker 1: so you would think that's maybe not a total issue,

905
00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:25,360
Speaker 1: but it is something kind of in the back of

906
00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:28,480
Speaker 1: your mind that I saw Scott point out on Twitter.

907
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:31,360
Speaker 1: And you know, if that is the case and McVeigh

908
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 1: decides to be, you know, on the kind of extreme

909
00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:37,759
Speaker 1: end of rest, then you would think Blake Korum could

910
00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:40,680
Speaker 1: maybe get even more carries. And they kind of sit

911
00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:43,960
Speaker 1: Kien Williams just as a possibility and Blake Korum in

912
00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:46,359
Speaker 1: this offense, although if other people are sitting who knows,

913
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:49,160
Speaker 1: But in what is typically a very good offense if

914
00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:51,200
Speaker 1: he's getting even more carries because they're trying to dial

915
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:53,239
Speaker 1: it down for Kien in that scenario, just something to

916
00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:55,440
Speaker 1: keep in mind, it could be even better for Korum

917
00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:58,200
Speaker 1: there by the way, they are two spots apart in

918
00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:01,319
Speaker 1: ECR Korum are we thirty one? Manung Guy RB twenty

919
00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:02,200
Speaker 1: nine Ericson.

920
00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:05,240
Speaker 3: I was kind of torn on this, but Fitz convinced

921
00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:07,440
Speaker 3: me that it should be Blake. Korm and had similar roles.

922
00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:10,560
Speaker 3: But if you look at projected game flow, I would

923
00:42:10,600 --> 00:42:13,839
Speaker 3: probably bet on the Rams playing with a lead more

924
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:16,080
Speaker 3: likely than Manung Guy and the Bears playing with the

925
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:18,400
Speaker 3: lead against the forty nine ers, and.

926
00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:20,200
Speaker 4: So I would also go with Korm. I don't think

927
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:20,839
Speaker 4: it's close though.

928
00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:23,800
Speaker 1: All right, let's go to a receiver one here, Christian

929
00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:25,920
Speaker 1: Watson or Chris Godwin Erickson.

930
00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:26,719
Speaker 2: I'll start with you here.

931
00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:29,560
Speaker 3: Both guys are on the injury report, so TVD on

932
00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:31,160
Speaker 3: who's actually playing.

933
00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:34,040
Speaker 4: So I think I just leaned with Watson.

934
00:42:34,280 --> 00:42:35,759
Speaker 3: I think that he's just showing he is a higher

935
00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:38,640
Speaker 3: ceiling on a week to week basis. We'll see what

936
00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:40,600
Speaker 3: who his quarterback is. Hopefully it's short of Love that's

937
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:44,520
Speaker 3: who I would prefer so. I don't feeling like super

938
00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:46,000
Speaker 3: great about either guy right now.

939
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:49,960
Speaker 1: Watson popped up with an illness, right fits I believe,

940
00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:53,680
Speaker 1: so yeah, yeah, this is yeah, go ahead.

941
00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:56,200
Speaker 5: Well I was I was just gonna say. I mean,

942
00:42:56,200 --> 00:43:01,640
Speaker 5: the Lions loss to the Viking was good for Packers fans,

943
00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:04,280
Speaker 5: but it's not good for anyone I think who's invested

944
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:08,120
Speaker 5: in the Green Bay passing game. Because they were sort

945
00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:12,200
Speaker 5: of expecting to have Jordan Love back despite the concussion

946
00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:17,319
Speaker 5: last week. I think that if this were sort of

947
00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:21,160
Speaker 5: a game they needed to win, we would be assured

948
00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:25,120
Speaker 5: of seeing Christian Watson. Now I don't know, so I

949
00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:29,080
Speaker 5: think if if Watson is active and Jordan Love starts,

950
00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:32,280
Speaker 5: I would play Christian Watson here. I mean, he scored

951
00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:34,719
Speaker 5: five touchdowns in his last six games, a pair of

952
00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:39,239
Speaker 5: two touchdown games. Big play receiver and wormier Ravens do

953
00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:42,120
Speaker 5: give up big plays in the passing game fifty five

954
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:44,600
Speaker 5: pass completions of twenty or more yards. That's tied for

955
00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,520
Speaker 5: third most in the league, just two behind the Bengals,

956
00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:50,560
Speaker 5: who've given up the most. Like I don't hate Godwin

957
00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:52,680
Speaker 5: as an option, but the Buccaneers are using a four

958
00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:56,279
Speaker 5: receiver rotation these days with Godwin, Mike Evans, a Mecca

959
00:43:56,320 --> 00:44:00,879
Speaker 5: Abuka and Jalen McMillan. So Evans is the alpha. And

960
00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:04,520
Speaker 5: you know, there's also the fact that Baker Mayfield hasn't

961
00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:06,680
Speaker 5: played all that well over the last two months, whereas

962
00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:09,680
Speaker 5: Jordan Love has been dealing. So if Love plays, I

963
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:11,240
Speaker 5: want Watson here over Godwin.

964
00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:15,840
Speaker 1: Let's do some flexes here. We mentioned to maryon Hampton earlier.

965
00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:19,640
Speaker 1: How about Hampton or Juwan Jennings fits Hampton.

966
00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:22,880
Speaker 5: I know it's a tough matchup against the Texans, although

967
00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:27,200
Speaker 5: the Texans let Ashton Genty run wild on them last week.

968
00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:31,120
Speaker 5: And I think with the Chargers injury plagued offensive line

969
00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:34,880
Speaker 5: having these protection issues where they just are not keeping

970
00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:38,120
Speaker 5: the pressure off justin Herbert, Chargers really need to run

971
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:42,160
Speaker 5: the ball heavily and effectively in this game. So I

972
00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:45,120
Speaker 5: like Jennings too. I've got him a wide receiver fifteen

973
00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:47,920
Speaker 5: for the week, but his value has been pretty touchdown dependent.

974
00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:51,440
Speaker 5: He's got seven touchdowns in his last seven games. But

975
00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:54,920
Speaker 5: Jennings hasn't given us more than seventy one receiving yards

976
00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:57,920
Speaker 5: in a game since Week two, And it's possible Ricky

977
00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:01,000
Speaker 5: Pierce all comes back, although George Kittle's status is kind

978
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:03,680
Speaker 5: of up in the air, so maybe that could funnel

979
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:06,439
Speaker 5: a few extra targets. Jennings Way, but I would still

980
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:07,000
Speaker 5: rather have a.

981
00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:11,919
Speaker 3: Hampton ericson Hampton for me, and even more so if

982
00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:15,200
Speaker 3: Camane Videl doesn't play in this game. I think the

983
00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:17,640
Speaker 3: Chargers know, hey, we got to run the football to

984
00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:21,000
Speaker 3: keep the Texans pass rush off of destroying our quarterback

985
00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 3: Justin Hurburt. And of course this game is you play

986
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:27,800
Speaker 3: on Saturday. The window where Saturday, late December early January,

987
00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:29,880
Speaker 3: there's always a Texans game on at four thirty Eastern.

988
00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:32,560
Speaker 3: It's just I don't know why it always seems like this.

989
00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:35,000
Speaker 3: It's usually them playing in the Wildcard round, hosting a

990
00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:38,319
Speaker 3: wildcard game, but just all the memories of like it's

991
00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:40,799
Speaker 3: like after Christmas, like New Year's just coming up.

992
00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:43,000
Speaker 4: I'm like, oh, yeah, the Texans are on Saturday four thirty.

993
00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:46,120
Speaker 5: Here we go, it's the Matt Shaw Memorial time slot.

994
00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:50,480
Speaker 1: Yes, they have taken residence in that Saturday Wildcard weekend

995
00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:55,319
Speaker 1: game every single year that they're in the playoffs. All right,

996
00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:58,879
Speaker 1: next flex here Jalen Warren, who we also already talked about,

997
00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:01,240
Speaker 1: or Teteroa mcmill in ericson.

998
00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:04,560
Speaker 3: Jalen Warren for me, assuming that we get reports of

999
00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:06,719
Speaker 3: Steelers are gona play their guys, Jalen Warren's fine, He's

1000
00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:07,920
Speaker 3: not dealing with his hip injury.

1001
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:10,879
Speaker 4: So that's roy Lean. Just because the Browns matchup is

1002
00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:12,160
Speaker 4: really really good.

1003
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:18,160
Speaker 5: Fits agreed, Just Steeler running backs both really good players

1004
00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:21,560
Speaker 5: this week against the Browns with their issues against the

1005
00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:25,040
Speaker 5: running game lately. I like, I don't hate McMillan. I'm

1006
00:46:25,080 --> 00:46:29,000
Speaker 5: not terrified by the Seattle matchup, but we do know

1007
00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:32,760
Speaker 5: that Dave Kanellis has kind of tried to hide Bryce

1008
00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:35,560
Speaker 5: Young for a lot of this year, so I think

1009
00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:37,800
Speaker 5: he doesn't want to open it up and have Bryce

1010
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:41,000
Speaker 5: Young throw thirty or more passes unless he absolutely has to.

1011
00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:44,759
Speaker 5: Maybe he'll have to this week, but I don't know.

1012
00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:47,600
Speaker 5: It's just it seems like there's way more upside with

1013
00:46:47,719 --> 00:46:51,080
Speaker 5: the running back on a team that has no wide receivers.

1014
00:46:52,600 --> 00:46:56,120
Speaker 2: Michael Carter or Jacobi Myers fits.

1015
00:46:56,719 --> 00:47:00,120
Speaker 5: I'm going with Carter. You know, he is the Cardinals'

1016
00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:02,880
Speaker 5: running back, and no team has given up more rushing

1017
00:47:02,920 --> 00:47:06,799
Speaker 5: yards to running backs than the Bengals. So Myers more

1018
00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:11,120
Speaker 5: of an ensemble cast of pass catchers for the Jaguars

1019
00:47:11,239 --> 00:47:14,960
Speaker 5: these days, so could have a big game, could kind

1020
00:47:15,000 --> 00:47:17,600
Speaker 5: of fall by the wayside. I think Carter's going to

1021
00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:21,720
Speaker 5: be I think he offers the safer floor Erickson.

1022
00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:26,160
Speaker 3: I will go to Jacobe Myers because the Colts defense

1023
00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:30,160
Speaker 3: is terrible. Their secondary is a mess. I don't know

1024
00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:32,239
Speaker 3: if Sas Carter is playing in this game or not.

1025
00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:34,880
Speaker 3: Even if he does, I would not expect him to

1026
00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:39,200
Speaker 3: shadow Jacobe Myers. And although it is kind of everybody

1027
00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:42,279
Speaker 3: eats type of mantra in this Jack's passing game, this

1028
00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:45,280
Speaker 3: passing game has also become a wagon right. Trevor Lawrence

1029
00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:47,480
Speaker 3: is tied with Josh Allen as the QB one in

1030
00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:50,839
Speaker 3: points per games since Week five, So I feel like

1031
00:47:51,040 --> 00:47:54,040
Speaker 3: I want to put my stock more into the Jaguars

1032
00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:56,600
Speaker 3: offense rather than the Cardinals offense. I had to talk

1033
00:47:56,640 --> 00:47:59,640
Speaker 3: about Carter earlier, where it's not all him in that

1034
00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:02,239
Speaker 3: back field. They are using other guys. I know Fitz

1035
00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:04,640
Speaker 3: mentioned the lack of receptions last week. I think part

1036
00:48:04,680 --> 00:48:07,920
Speaker 3: of that too is Amaro de Mercado played more snaps

1037
00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:09,759
Speaker 3: on third downs, kind of taking away some of the

1038
00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:12,239
Speaker 3: receptions for Michael Carter. So my only concern with Carter

1039
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:15,279
Speaker 3: is he gets a lot of rushing yards but doesn't

1040
00:48:15,280 --> 00:48:17,600
Speaker 3: catch passes and maybe doesn't score. So that's where I

1041
00:48:17,600 --> 00:48:19,480
Speaker 3: get concerned with him, especially in like the full PPR.

1042
00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:22,200
Speaker 3: Where's Jacoby Myers? I mean, he's the target leader basically

1043
00:48:22,280 --> 00:48:25,279
Speaker 3: every single week for the Jacksonville Jaguars. It's a good

1044
00:48:25,360 --> 00:48:29,880
Speaker 3: matchup for him, So I like the Jaguars wide receiver fitz.

1045
00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:32,240
Speaker 2: Where's Myers ranked to you amongst two receivers?

1046
00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:39,240
Speaker 5: I have got him ranked wide receiver twenty twenty seven.

1047
00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:43,040
Speaker 1: Okay, so you're well below consensus. Jacoby Myers is wide

1048
00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:44,719
Speaker 1: receiver sixteen in ECR.

1049
00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:49,840
Speaker 5: I don't understand why. I just like, there are a

1050
00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:55,560
Speaker 5: lot of pass catchers now for the Jaguars, and I

1051
00:48:55,600 --> 00:48:59,600
Speaker 5: don't know we'll see Ken Philip Rivers force Trevor Lawrence

1052
00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:02,919
Speaker 5: into a shoot out. Trevor Lawrence just I know he's

1053
00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:06,520
Speaker 5: been on fire, but like, are we booking him for

1054
00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:09,680
Speaker 5: four touchdown passes every week? I just I can't get

1055
00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:11,520
Speaker 5: there with him if.

1056
00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:12,640
Speaker 4: He faces colts every week.

1057
00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:15,360
Speaker 3: I mean, I Rock Perney made it look pretty easy.

1058
00:49:16,680 --> 00:49:17,359
Speaker 2: Myers.

1059
00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:20,080
Speaker 1: Not only is he up there, he's gone up like

1060
00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:22,839
Speaker 1: he has risen six spots in ECR in the last

1061
00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:26,200
Speaker 1: two days. He was at twenty two, but since Wednesday

1062
00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:29,279
Speaker 1: has gone up to wide receiver sixteen here, all right,

1063
00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:32,319
Speaker 1: let's go to another flex here, ericson ad and I

1064
00:49:32,440 --> 00:49:34,359
Speaker 1: Mitchell or Zach Sharbone.

1065
00:49:34,920 --> 00:49:36,440
Speaker 4: I will go with Zach Sharbone.

1066
00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:39,480
Speaker 3: I just think he probably has better odds of scoring

1067
00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:40,000
Speaker 3: a touchdown.

1068
00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:41,800
Speaker 2: Fitz.

1069
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:44,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's as simple as that. I just don't want

1070
00:49:44,680 --> 00:49:46,320
Speaker 5: to have to rely on a wide receiver tied to

1071
00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:49,719
Speaker 5: Brady Cook. I would rather just cross my fingers and

1072
00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:51,759
Speaker 5: hope to get a touchdown from Zach Sharboney.

1073
00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:55,680
Speaker 1: All right, let's go to a quarterback here. How about

1074
00:49:55,719 --> 00:49:59,640
Speaker 1: Jacobe Brussette or the aforementioned Trevor Lawrence. Fitz, I'll start

1075
00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:00,200
Speaker 1: with you on this.

1076
00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:03,560
Speaker 5: Oh man, this is a close call. And speaking of Lawrence,

1077
00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:06,239
Speaker 5: with the touchdown outburst the last couple of weeks where

1078
00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:08,640
Speaker 5: he's given us, I think, you know, four or five

1079
00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:11,879
Speaker 5: touchdown passes a touchdown run every week. Where was this

1080
00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:13,960
Speaker 5: earlier in the year when I needed it in the

1081
00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:17,760
Speaker 5: Fantasy pros in house league, where I had Trevor Lawrence

1082
00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:21,960
Speaker 5: like I was thrilled when I won Joe Flacco on

1083
00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:24,800
Speaker 5: waivers so I wouldn't have to start Trevor Lawrence anymore

1084
00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:27,640
Speaker 5: at one point this season. And now like Trevor Lawrence

1085
00:50:27,719 --> 00:50:30,879
Speaker 5: is carrying people to Fantasy Championship. So it's been quite

1086
00:50:30,880 --> 00:50:34,400
Speaker 5: the turnaround after I was already eliminated in that league.

1087
00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:38,440
Speaker 5: I HaVeset ranked one spot higher. It's a really close call,

1088
00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:42,080
Speaker 5: but before last week, Brissett had been averaging three hundred

1089
00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:45,000
Speaker 5: passing yards and two touchdown passes in his starts for

1090
00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:47,520
Speaker 5: the Cardinals this year, and you know, he kind of

1091
00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:49,839
Speaker 5: flopped last week against the Falcons. But I think we

1092
00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:52,880
Speaker 5: could get a shootout between the Cardinals and the Bengals,

1093
00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:56,760
Speaker 5: and we know Trey McBride is going to absolutely destroy

1094
00:50:56,800 --> 00:51:00,640
Speaker 5: a Cincinnati defense that simply cannot stop tight ends. So

1095
00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:04,200
Speaker 5: Lawrence also a top ten quarterback option too. I just

1096
00:51:04,280 --> 00:51:05,399
Speaker 5: like Perset a little more.

1097
00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:09,480
Speaker 1: They're both ranked very highly in ECR. Of course, ericson

1098
00:51:09,520 --> 00:51:11,360
Speaker 1: who do you prefer Lawrence or Pressette?

1099
00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:13,600
Speaker 4: I prefer Trevor Lawrence.

1100
00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:16,600
Speaker 3: And I'm kicking myself because in my championship league I

1101
00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:19,640
Speaker 3: had to actually drop Trevor Lawrence earlier because he was

1102
00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:21,120
Speaker 3: facing the Broncos last week, and I was like, well,

1103
00:51:21,120 --> 00:51:22,879
Speaker 3: I have Jacoby, I'm gonna roll with him next week.

1104
00:51:22,920 --> 00:51:25,360
Speaker 3: And now I'm like, I just make the worst decision

1105
00:51:25,400 --> 00:51:27,319
Speaker 3: in my entire life. So I hope fits is right,

1106
00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:31,200
Speaker 3: and I hope that Jacobe outscores Trevor Lawrence, but I

1107
00:51:31,239 --> 00:51:33,920
Speaker 3: would go. I was panic. I was like, maybe I

1108
00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:35,520
Speaker 3: could pick him back up. Of course I have zero

1109
00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:37,480
Speaker 3: FAB left, so I had no chance of getting Trevor Laurance.

1110
00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:39,520
Speaker 3: Luckily my opponent was not able to get him. Someone

1111
00:51:39,560 --> 00:51:42,239
Speaker 3: in the Constellation bracket picked up Trevor Lawrence instead, So

1112
00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:43,040
Speaker 3: wasn't the.

1113
00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:44,759
Speaker 4: Worst maneuver to fits this point.

1114
00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:47,920
Speaker 3: Both guys are really good options, very strongly ranked both

1115
00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:48,480
Speaker 3: an ECR.

1116
00:51:48,520 --> 00:51:49,520
Speaker 4: But I would go with Trevor.

1117
00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:52,040
Speaker 3: I mean, like I said before, QB one tie with

1118
00:51:52,080 --> 00:51:54,520
Speaker 3: Josh Allen since week five and he's facing the Colts

1119
00:51:54,640 --> 00:51:57,120
Speaker 3: indoors in a dome, I think the Jaguars.

1120
00:51:57,120 --> 00:51:58,480
Speaker 4: Could you just pouring on offensively?

1121
00:52:00,440 --> 00:52:02,759
Speaker 1: Let me ask you this, Lawrence is one spot ahead

1122
00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:05,440
Speaker 1: of Matthew Stafford ericson, would you start Lawrence ahead of Stafford?

1123
00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:07,719
Speaker 3: Well, now you're making me second guests. A lot of

1124
00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:10,040
Speaker 3: my RAMS rankings because of what you just mentioned about

1125
00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:12,440
Speaker 3: if they don't have anything to play for it, I

1126
00:52:12,440 --> 00:52:15,840
Speaker 3: would not I would not be strum. He's like, no Staffords,

1127
00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:18,080
Speaker 3: I'm playing like we're gonna take him out and I'll

1128
00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:21,080
Speaker 3: play Garoppolo because he knows that so much of what

1129
00:52:21,239 --> 00:52:24,279
Speaker 3: makes the Rams so effective and their upside is having

1130
00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:27,000
Speaker 3: a healthy Matthew Stafford. And I don't think anyone in

1131
00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:28,839
Speaker 3: the I don't think Anon of the locker room's gonna

1132
00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:30,120
Speaker 3: be like, oh, like, why'd you bentch Stafford's like, if

1133
00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:31,560
Speaker 3: we have nothing to play for, He's not touched in

1134
00:52:31,560 --> 00:52:35,200
Speaker 3: the field, So that would concern me. And I think

1135
00:52:35,239 --> 00:52:37,239
Speaker 3: that we could see a guy like Jimmy Garoppolo if

1136
00:52:37,239 --> 00:52:40,440
Speaker 3: that scenario plays itself out, because we know that the

1137
00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:43,520
Speaker 3: Rams don't ever risk their guys in meaningless games in

1138
00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:44,200
Speaker 3: the preseason.

1139
00:52:44,680 --> 00:52:46,759
Speaker 5: So I think it.

1140
00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:49,080
Speaker 1: Depends on how they define meaningless because they are they

1141
00:52:49,080 --> 00:52:52,040
Speaker 1: can still fight for a better seed.

1142
00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:54,279
Speaker 4: He doesn't. He doesn't care about seed, but.

1143
00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:57,279
Speaker 1: Yes, he's nothing for historically he has not cared about

1144
00:52:57,280 --> 00:53:01,640
Speaker 1: the better seed when and it's like the difference between

1145
00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:02,960
Speaker 1: the three and the four seed, or like the five

1146
00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:05,520
Speaker 1: and the six seed. Sean McVay is historically not really

1147
00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:08,280
Speaker 1: really minded that. Again, two weeks away from the playoffs,

1148
00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:10,960
Speaker 1: it feels like pretty early, but it's just something to

1149
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:13,040
Speaker 1: keep in mind. It would be crushing to me in

1150
00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:16,120
Speaker 1: my in my championship league. It's a super flex, and

1151
00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:18,279
Speaker 1: I lost my homes and Gardner Minshew and I have

1152
00:53:18,360 --> 00:53:21,560
Speaker 1: no available starting quarterbacks, so Stafford is my only QB.

1153
00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:22,839
Speaker 2: That would be really rough to.

1154
00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:25,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, I would pick up right now.

1155
00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:26,040
Speaker 2: I cannot pick him up.

1156
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:27,400
Speaker 1: It's a league where you have to have a minimum

1157
00:53:27,440 --> 00:53:30,080
Speaker 1: one dollar to make any kind of waiver pickup. I

1158
00:53:30,120 --> 00:53:34,799
Speaker 1: spent everything on Minshew because I was like, the last

1159
00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:37,080
Speaker 1: spot I need is I just lost my home, so

1160
00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:39,360
Speaker 1: let me make sure I get his his backup.

1161
00:53:39,360 --> 00:53:40,480
Speaker 2: What's the worst that could happen?

1162
00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:44,120
Speaker 1: He immediately Dari's ACL and now Stafford might not play.

1163
00:53:44,239 --> 00:53:47,319
Speaker 1: So that would be a very, very devastating finish to

1164
00:53:47,360 --> 00:53:47,920
Speaker 1: that season.

1165
00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:50,080
Speaker 2: But it's somebody to keep in mind. Obviously.

1166
00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:52,840
Speaker 1: I think we're all hoping that we still get the

1167
00:53:52,920 --> 00:53:55,600
Speaker 1: Rams in that game. You know, give given it.

1168
00:53:55,600 --> 00:53:58,800
Speaker 5: They're all I've been agonizing over a Brock Party versus

1169
00:53:58,800 --> 00:54:02,400
Speaker 5: Matthew Stafford start decision, and I had sort of independently

1170
00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:04,560
Speaker 5: decided to go, and I've got them ranked ad Jason

1171
00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:06,719
Speaker 5: to each other in the rankings. I decided to go

1172
00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:09,000
Speaker 5: with Party. Now I feel like it's kind of a

1173
00:54:09,040 --> 00:54:11,440
Speaker 5: nope brainer now that you raise that scenario with the

1174
00:54:11,680 --> 00:54:17,359
Speaker 5: Pianowski scenario here, because yeah, that's got to terrify anyone

1175
00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:20,880
Speaker 5: who's depending on the Rams passing game in this final week.

1176
00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:23,080
Speaker 1: Any other coach, and that would be pretty optimistic that

1177
00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:23,759
Speaker 1: they'd still play.

1178
00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:26,080
Speaker 2: But McVeigh is the one, like given his history.

1179
00:54:26,200 --> 00:54:28,920
Speaker 1: By the way, those four names we talked about, Lauren Stafford,

1180
00:54:28,920 --> 00:54:31,799
Speaker 1: Party Brissett are all back to back to back to

1181
00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:34,120
Speaker 1: back in ECR. So that's kind of the range that

1182
00:54:34,160 --> 00:54:36,319
Speaker 1: we are well discussed also too, for if.

1183
00:54:36,239 --> 00:54:38,600
Speaker 3: You are a Stafford manager, just make sure you have

1184
00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:41,399
Speaker 3: Kirk Cousins just like just in case, like they pulled

1185
00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:43,359
Speaker 3: the plug on, so you have a backup. I mean,

1186
00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:46,040
Speaker 3: the Rams can give up yardage with their secondary, so

1187
00:54:46,520 --> 00:54:49,200
Speaker 3: just to be sure because Chubckay probably won't tell usuntil it's.

1188
00:54:49,120 --> 00:54:52,040
Speaker 4: Too late because that's because that's how they roll.

1189
00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:55,480
Speaker 1: So all right, we got a tight end one here,

1190
00:54:56,440 --> 00:55:00,560
Speaker 1: Dallas Goddard or Tyler Warren, these guys are back to

1191
00:55:00,640 --> 00:55:04,239
Speaker 1: back back end tight end ones in ecr ericson who

1192
00:55:04,239 --> 00:55:06,200
Speaker 1: do you like better, Goddard or Warren?

1193
00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:08,359
Speaker 4: So I like Tyler Warren better.

1194
00:55:08,360 --> 00:55:10,479
Speaker 3: He has been the target leader with Philip Rivers under

1195
00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:12,560
Speaker 3: center the last two games. It's a good matchup for

1196
00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:15,000
Speaker 3: him against the Jacksonville Jaguars defense.

1197
00:55:15,239 --> 00:55:16,040
Speaker 5: And I know.

1198
00:55:16,000 --> 00:55:16,960
Speaker 4: Warren's been disappointing.

1199
00:55:17,000 --> 00:55:20,640
Speaker 3: The box scores have been pretty pretty preutred, but the

1200
00:55:20,719 --> 00:55:22,920
Speaker 3: volume has been there for him the last couple of games,

1201
00:55:23,040 --> 00:55:25,279
Speaker 3: and the matchup is good for him. He's a talented player.

1202
00:55:25,280 --> 00:55:27,960
Speaker 3: You can make plays after the catch, So I actually

1203
00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:30,919
Speaker 3: prefer Warren here. I hate the matchup for Dallas Goddard

1204
00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:33,720
Speaker 3: against the Bills. Bills have been brutal against Titans, especially

1205
00:55:33,719 --> 00:55:35,560
Speaker 3: guys that are more in line Titans than more of

1206
00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:39,080
Speaker 3: these hybrid types of players. However, I would probably have

1207
00:55:39,160 --> 00:55:42,640
Speaker 3: to move Goddard up if this aj Brown thing, Like, dude,

1208
00:55:43,360 --> 00:55:45,359
Speaker 3: get your wisdom teeth out before you, like what are

1209
00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:45,719
Speaker 3: we doing?

1210
00:55:46,280 --> 00:55:48,799
Speaker 5: Like what are we doing here?

1211
00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:52,320
Speaker 4: Dude? Like how do you schedule this in this season.

1212
00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:55,799
Speaker 3: Before you have to play this like huge game on

1213
00:55:55,840 --> 00:55:58,000
Speaker 3: the road against the Buffalo Bills. And you're like, yeah, I'm

1214
00:55:58,000 --> 00:55:59,400
Speaker 3: gonna get my wizard teeth out this week?

1215
00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:01,040
Speaker 4: Like what?

1216
00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:04,920
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, I've had my wisdom teeth remove before.

1217
00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:08,960
Speaker 2: It's not fun. I say, it sucks terrible.

1218
00:56:10,080 --> 00:56:11,520
Speaker 1: On the Erics, And I do recall I think it

1219
00:56:11,560 --> 00:56:14,120
Speaker 1: was earlier this summer that you fought through you had

1220
00:56:14,160 --> 00:56:17,799
Speaker 1: like some kind of dental procedure and we recorded the

1221
00:56:17,840 --> 00:56:20,040
Speaker 1: next morning and you were powering through.

1222
00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:21,280
Speaker 2: Am I remembering that correctly?

1223
00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:21,759
Speaker 4: Yeah?

1224
00:56:21,800 --> 00:56:23,560
Speaker 3: But then all the YouTube comments that I looked really

1225
00:56:23,560 --> 00:56:25,399
Speaker 3: depressed and look, I didn't want to be there.

1226
00:56:25,719 --> 00:56:27,920
Speaker 4: So maybe we're gonna get the A. J.

1227
00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:30,720
Speaker 3: Brown book game because he's gonna be out there grabbing

1228
00:56:30,760 --> 00:56:33,120
Speaker 3: his mouth be like, oh man, my mouth hurts.

1229
00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:37,040
Speaker 4: Just who signed off on this? But oh yeah, just

1230
00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:39,600
Speaker 4: get your wisdom teeth out Christmas week. I mean you

1231
00:56:39,640 --> 00:56:42,279
Speaker 4: got on Christmas Eve? Like, what's going on?

1232
00:56:42,400 --> 00:56:44,040
Speaker 5: Dude? That is just same.

1233
00:56:44,640 --> 00:56:47,520
Speaker 1: AJ Brown looks depressed every game he plays with Jalen hurts.

1234
00:56:47,560 --> 00:56:49,000
Speaker 1: So I don't know how we'll be able to tell

1235
00:56:49,040 --> 00:56:52,759
Speaker 1: the difference here, all right, fancy to be like better

1236
00:56:52,800 --> 00:56:54,080
Speaker 1: Tyler Warren or Dallas Goddard.

1237
00:56:55,160 --> 00:56:59,520
Speaker 5: Dallas Goddard. I know the volume was there. My son

1238
00:56:59,560 --> 00:57:02,640
Speaker 5: had Tyler Warren in a semi final game last week,

1239
00:57:02,680 --> 00:57:04,760
Speaker 5: and he needed I think like four and a half

1240
00:57:04,880 --> 00:57:09,200
Speaker 5: PPR points out of Tyler Warren to win, and he

1241
00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:13,080
Speaker 5: sweated that one out until like garbage time. Like Tyler

1242
00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:15,600
Speaker 5: Warren didn't get across the finish line format four and

1243
00:57:15,640 --> 00:57:19,280
Speaker 5: a half PPR points until late And Warren has had

1244
00:57:19,480 --> 00:57:22,200
Speaker 5: thirty or fewer receiving yards in four straight games, and

1245
00:57:22,240 --> 00:57:24,840
Speaker 5: he's only scored one touchdown in his last eight games,

1246
00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:28,960
Speaker 5: like Dallas Goddard has ten touchdowns. And I know the

1247
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:33,040
Speaker 5: Bills smother tight ends, but the tush pushes now pass

1248
00:57:33,120 --> 00:57:35,640
Speaker 5: a and the Eagles favorite play near the goal line

1249
00:57:35,720 --> 00:57:38,760
Speaker 5: is that little shovel pass to Dallas Goddard. So I'm

1250
00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:41,760
Speaker 5: hoping we get one of those, and I'll take that

1251
00:57:41,840 --> 00:57:45,360
Speaker 5: over Tyler Warren, who's just kind of fizzled down the stretch. Here.

1268
00:58:32,120 --> 00:58:34,600
Speaker 1: we are doing a running back, receiver, and tight end

1269
00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:37,320
Speaker 1: as always ericson who do you have at running back?

1270
00:58:37,800 --> 00:58:40,400
Speaker 3: Ashton Genty's gonna score this week against the New York

1271
00:58:40,400 --> 00:58:43,880
Speaker 3: Giants in pursuit of one thousand rushing yards. He's actually

1272
00:58:43,960 --> 00:58:45,800
Speaker 3: closing it out one thousand rushing yards after that big

1273
00:58:45,840 --> 00:58:48,480
Speaker 3: games to Houston Texans. Two games left, so hopefully you

1274
00:58:48,480 --> 00:58:50,440
Speaker 3: can get over the one k mark for his rookie season.

1275
00:58:51,800 --> 00:58:54,040
Speaker 2: Ashton Genty for ericson fits, who.

1276
00:58:53,880 --> 00:58:57,320
Speaker 5: Do you have at receiver Drake London against the Rams

1277
00:58:57,400 --> 00:58:59,800
Speaker 5: on Monday nights. And yes, I'm trying to speak this

1278
00:58:59,840 --> 00:59:02,280
Speaker 5: in new existence because I'm starting Drake London in two

1279
00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:03,240
Speaker 5: championship games.

1280
00:59:04,680 --> 00:59:07,040
Speaker 4: How many Drake London teams are you facing? Though? You

1281
00:59:07,080 --> 00:59:07,680
Speaker 4: gotta check that.

1282
00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:12,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't think I'm going against him in any

1283
00:59:12,320 --> 00:59:13,400
Speaker 5: league this week.

1284
00:59:13,560 --> 00:59:15,680
Speaker 1: That is a nice part about only having two teams

1285
00:59:15,760 --> 00:59:19,240
Speaker 1: left is a Lave and Puka are the only players

1286
00:59:19,240 --> 00:59:22,400
Speaker 1: that like have in one facing in the other. Because

1287
00:59:22,400 --> 00:59:24,480
Speaker 1: when you have you know, fourteen leagues or whatever you

1288
00:59:24,480 --> 00:59:26,640
Speaker 1: know it's been for most of the season, you get

1289
00:59:26,680 --> 00:59:28,800
Speaker 1: a lot of that. It is nice to simplify from

1290
00:59:28,800 --> 00:59:31,560
Speaker 1: that perspective. I'm sure it's more difficult for you Fits,

1291
00:59:31,600 --> 00:59:34,160
Speaker 1: but that's very much a first world problem with seven

1292
00:59:34,200 --> 00:59:38,680
Speaker 1: teams in the Championship. So jant for ericson Drake London

1293
00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:40,400
Speaker 1: for Fits, I'm at tight end.

1294
00:59:41,080 --> 00:59:42,120
Speaker 2: We are not overthinking it.

1295
00:59:42,200 --> 00:59:44,280
Speaker 1: This is the final time I have to pick a

1296
00:59:44,320 --> 00:59:47,120
Speaker 1: tight end for this year in this touchdown calls contest.

1297
00:59:47,160 --> 00:59:48,840
Speaker 1: I don't think I've gotten a single tight end right.

1298
00:59:49,280 --> 00:59:52,400
Speaker 1: Hopefully I'm not putting that bad juju on Trey McBride.

1299
00:59:53,200 --> 00:59:55,800
Speaker 1: Just the no brainer of all no brainers. McBride facing

1300
00:59:56,120 --> 00:59:59,200
Speaker 1: this Bengals defense, so we're going with him. Jent, London

1301
00:59:59,240 --> 01:00:02,640
Speaker 1: and McBride are our three touchdown calls for the week.

01:00:21,920 --> 01:00:24,240

Speaker 1: to our listeners here before the rest of the late kicksoff.

1312
01:00:29,800 --> 01:00:34,320
Speaker 3: Trust the process you got here, grinding sixteen weeks of

1313
01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:36,960
Speaker 3: the season, not letting your emotions get in the way,

1314
01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:38,920
Speaker 3: because as we all know, this isn't a very emotional

1315
01:00:38,960 --> 01:00:43,040
Speaker 3: game that we play, and sixteen weeks of tilting. Hey,

1316
01:00:43,240 --> 01:00:46,240
Speaker 3: it all pays off if you come on with that championship.

1317
01:00:46,320 --> 01:00:48,160
Speaker 3: So yeah, let's go, baby.

1318
01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:51,480
Speaker 1: If it's any final words of wisdom here, yeah, that's it.

1319
01:00:51,520 --> 01:00:53,800
Speaker 5: I mean, there can be a lot of variants in

1320
01:00:53,840 --> 01:00:56,720
Speaker 5: a single week of fantasy football, and the best teams

1321
01:00:56,760 --> 01:00:59,360
Speaker 5: are not always going to win this week. But every year,

1322
01:00:59,400 --> 01:01:03,280
Speaker 5: all you can you do is just you know, maximize

1323
01:01:03,320 --> 01:01:07,240
Speaker 5: your probability and you know, just keep keep getting to

1324
01:01:07,280 --> 01:01:10,000
Speaker 5: the doorstep and if you're playing this week, you are

1325
01:01:10,040 --> 01:01:14,080
Speaker 5: on the doorstep, just keep knocking. Eventually that doors can open.

1326
01:01:15,000 --> 01:01:17,120
Speaker 1: All tics is winning one week. I have a team

1327
01:01:17,160 --> 01:01:19,920
Speaker 1: that's not very good, clear underdog. But you never any

1328
01:01:19,960 --> 01:01:23,400
Speaker 1: individual week, anything can happen. So dare I say any

1329
