Speaker 1: you got Yeah. What did you do this week? What
Speaker 1: do I do this weekend? Um? A lot of Halloween,
Speaker 1: trying to get into the spirit, watching some scary movies.
Speaker 1: I watched, uh, the first Michael mar movie that was
Speaker 1: directed by Rob Zombie, So I watched that. I watched
Speaker 1: Veronica on Netflix, and I played football. I went to
Speaker 1: the Jet game yesterday. Came home from the Jet game
Speaker 1: at like eight o'clock at night because it takes like
Speaker 1: three hours to get home in traffic from MetLife Stadium.
Speaker 1: So that was a disaster. So I spent the rest
Speaker 1: of the night watching the Chiefs and trying to catch
Speaker 1: up on everything else that I missed. So old wad
Speaker 1: of football playing, watching and then trying to get in
Speaker 1: the Halloween spirit. Pretty much it. Yeah, I had a
Speaker 1: pad weekend, except for the fact that you know, every
Speaker 1: week now that I played football, I come in here
Speaker 1: on Monday. I tell you that, like, I feel like
Speaker 1: I've aged by fifty years overnight. You were you were like, like,
Speaker 1: I've got crank walked into the studio. It's only two hands.
Speaker 1: It was only two in touch again, A little bit
Speaker 1: of everything everything. Yeah, yeah. I spent yesterday grocery shopping
Speaker 1: and then sitting in the catch watching football. Was it
Speaker 1: all right? The lot of be grocery shop this week?
Speaker 1: A grocery shop because we have the Holliween party, Trader Joe's,
Speaker 1: the Trader Joe's shop, So predictable, is it? It's the
Speaker 1: most affordable, all right? Only trading? I mean it's fine,
Speaker 1: it's fun. Trader Jos. Yeah, no, there's nothing wrong with it.
Speaker 1: I traded Joe's fried mac and cheese ball. Didn't buy them.
Speaker 1: Why not? Because to tell you to get one of
Speaker 1: my fried stuff? Really? Why not? It's not healthy for you. Oh,
Speaker 1: it's not healthy for you. Probably live once, Greg, We'll
Speaker 1: say this, get ready, Frank. This week, I hope we
Speaker 1: are making our own noki or like about the potatoes,
Speaker 1: the flower and the egg. It's hard to make. I'm good.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna find out. Well, yeah, let me know, let
Speaker 1: me know, let me know what the rest of it is,
Speaker 1: how it goes down, because I am down to do it.
Speaker 1: A little creamy pesto and nioki very good, and I
Speaker 1: bought the basil for the creamy pestlets breaking. Let's do it, man,
Speaker 1: all right, let's get to the football. I was gonna say,
Speaker 1: you know, did anything stay ne to you football wise
Speaker 1: this weekend? Or we're just gonna talk about Trader Chris Paul?
Speaker 1: You want whatever? We'll up to that Sunday morning. I mean,
Speaker 1: it was kind of cool. I didn't stay up late
Speaker 1: enough to actually see it happened live. We'll go to
Speaker 1: a Sunday morning A show I saw. I was up
Speaker 1: late eno because it was the wedding, But I was like,
Speaker 1: when I saw what happened, was what the hell is
Speaker 1: going on? Chris Lebrown was like holding Chris Paul back? Yeah.
Speaker 1: Do you find it weird that Chris Paul is always
Speaker 1: kind of in the circle of like controversies NBA, Yet
Speaker 1: he's the head of the player's association. Well I don't
Speaker 1: saw him. That doesn't bother me. Yeah, that doesn't bother
Speaker 1: just But I think that represent the players a little
Speaker 1: bit better. I mean not that you know, if you
Speaker 1: get spit on, I understand yourself or whatever is today?
Speaker 1: Other basketball man you got you know, you got a
Speaker 1: little two piece action in there. You got you got
Speaker 1: hit by Rondo. Man, he got rocked. And then you
Speaker 1: see Brandon Ingram come in like a little jerk in
Speaker 1: the background, Like that's so like typical like today's you know,
Speaker 1: a guy coming in from behind trying to like sucker
Speaker 1: pump somebody, like, come on, dude, Brandon Ingram, Chris Paul,
Speaker 1: don't love to be your dad. I likely you said no,
Speaker 1: you didn't want to talk about this, Sorry, Toby, Sorry
Speaker 1: you wanted to, man, Okay, I don't know I wanted to.
Speaker 1: It just kind of happens to happen. Let's get in
Speaker 1: the NFL from yesterday. What's that the most Frankie um
Speaker 1: the Jets. I was then in a car for like
Speaker 1: the next three hours. No. I was like, we did
Speaker 1: like a pretail gate. We did like a post hail gate.
Speaker 1: Oh my god. Yeah, so lots of burgers, more beer afterwards,
Speaker 1: like and again, I didn't get home until like eight o'clock. Um, well,
Speaker 1: well we did see you know a clock in that night.
Speaker 1: Game was just utter, utter domination once again. The Kansas
Speaker 1: City Chiefs Patrick Mahomes Kareem Hunt, and I tweeted this
Speaker 1: out yesterday. I told you a couple of weeks ago,
Speaker 1: I traded away Kareem Hunt to get David Johnson and
Speaker 1: Julian Edelman. Kareem Hunt outscored both of those, you know.
Speaker 1: I mean, look, at the time, you think you're getting
Speaker 1: RB one back, you're getting a rock solid wide receiver
Speaker 1: to um. But it's obvious that if things get off
Speaker 1: to a slow start, if you do have competent coaches
Speaker 1: and offensive minds that know how to scheme your players
Speaker 1: and use them correctly, that things can turn around very quickly.
Speaker 1: We're all so worried about Kareem Hunt the first three
Speaker 1: games of the season, not getting targeted, not catching passes
Speaker 1: out of the backfield. Look what he's done the past
Speaker 1: for you. When you have Andy Reid, when you have
Speaker 1: competent coaches, you know, not named Mike McCoy for one
Speaker 1: with the Arizona Cardinals, we'll see if you know Byron
Speaker 1: Leftwich could turn this around. Um. But yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: they look if teams know how to use their best players,
Speaker 1: these are the types of things that can happen with
Speaker 1: cream Hunt. So I feel pretty dumb. I feel pretty
Speaker 1: stupid that I traded him away ultimately. But for people
Speaker 1: who held on to Kareem Hunt, um and had faith
Speaker 1: in him, mainly you shout out to Greg Susman, Um, Frank,
Speaker 1: you gotta feel good. Very rarely gives me credit, but
Speaker 1: yesterday he was all about it. It was awesome. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I was little intoxicated too, so I was like feeling
Speaker 1: like that's why. Yeah, you know, like I was like,
Speaker 1: you know what, God, Greg, you were so right man.
Speaker 1: Then we woke up today and I'm like, what a
Speaker 1: text Craig that you know, like, now he's gonna you
Speaker 1: know the high Horse break said out was right about
Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt. Well I wasn't. I wasn't. You're being nice.
Speaker 1: I know I don't do that often, but if you
Speaker 1: catch me on the right day, the right amount of beer,
Speaker 1: it was great because you gave me credit for Creem
Speaker 1: Hunt and Alex Lennon, which was crazy because I was already,
Speaker 1: So I was already to wake up uh this morning
Speaker 1: to the text from Frank about Alex Letton and then
Speaker 1: I started. I was like, it was like lan a
Speaker 1: clock last night or so, and there was watching TV
Speaker 1: and I looked at my fantasy, our fantasy of basketball,
Speaker 1: my help, my other the actually came up first, so
Speaker 1: I looked at Tray. I was like, oh my god, Dreng.
Speaker 1: Within seconds of me looking at Trey Young's line, Frank
Speaker 1: text me, He's like, dude, And this could have been anything,
Speaker 1: and it could have been like he's not going to
Speaker 1: work tonight. It could it could have been like you
Speaker 1: did you really e something up? Like I was really
Speaker 1: nervous that that dude was about and it was just
Speaker 1: like have you seen the Hawks? Yeah, Trang is the best.
Speaker 1: It's like Keeve Alex lenn It's like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: it was awesome. Again, we're in a football conversation. We're
Speaker 1: just steering very quickly into uh into basketball, and it
Speaker 1: is a fun time right now between obviously football basketball
Speaker 1: in the World Series going on. But he's probably get
Speaker 1: more into football. Fine, fair enough. We have to control ourselves, Gregg.
Speaker 1: Maybe another day we'll be able to talk about basketball.
Speaker 1: He's not that too. All right, let's get let's get
Speaker 1: let's get into it. Let's get into it. You mentioned
Speaker 1: the Jets because that that was the only thing you at,
Speaker 1: which is fine. Justin Tucker missed the first extra point
Speaker 1: of his career. Ravens fault to the Saints. Crazy because
Speaker 1: what was the friend of that game? Two and a
Speaker 1: half point unbelievable man on the leave, dude. What was
Speaker 1: even crazier about that is I bet the under at
Speaker 1: forty nine, So what was that would have made it?
Speaker 1: What was it? The final was saying it was twenty
Speaker 1: four to twenty three. That would have tied the game
Speaker 1: and made it forty eight total points, which they would
Speaker 1: have went into overtime. The only way I cashed on
Speaker 1: the under is if the game obviously ends in a tie.
Speaker 1: So that was not gonna happen. There was no way
Speaker 1: like there was either going to get a feel act.
Speaker 1: I mean, there's a lot of times, very small chance,
Speaker 1: very small, dude, they're going over time yet ten minutes
Speaker 1: of them. I mean, I think between the Saints of
Speaker 1: the Ravens, we probably get a field goal or a
Speaker 1: touch on there and I'm done. Dustin Tucker my man
Speaker 1: comes through missing the extra point. Funny, funny you know people,
Speaker 1: you know, some people might be mad about kickers today.
Speaker 1: Obviously pretty happy with them. The Cowboys. I had Washington
Speaker 1: money line. They missed, They missed the field goal that
Speaker 1: I was enjoyed. That was a lot of things just
Speaker 1: very closely went my way. Maybe, you know, maybe I
Speaker 1: should take a week off next week. Let me pull up.
Speaker 1: I got a little bit too luck of our bets here,
Speaker 1: shall I see? How how are you had the bills?
Speaker 1: Thank you for taking them so that I couldn't. That
Speaker 1: was a loss. That's one. I think I had Washington,
Speaker 1: I had Carolina, and I think I had the Jets
Speaker 1: and Vikings over in that three. So I went three
Speaker 1: for three. That's three and oh. For Frank, Sir, I
Speaker 1: had Buffalo, I was a loss. I had Jackson Mill
Speaker 1: that was also a loss. And I had New England,
Speaker 1: which was a win. New England's good. So I was
Speaker 1: one and two, which means my score is now unfortunately
Speaker 1: nine and nine. Frank is ten and eight relations Greg frustrating,
Speaker 1: It's bed week for me week for great UM. Now
Speaker 1: we go Chicago yesterday. Weird game. UM. Overall but the
Speaker 1: major neew Sony Michelle gets hurt in this one, hurts
Speaker 1: his knee. James White becomes a superstar. Uh, the bear
Speaker 1: is scored a ton of points. The wide receivers did nothing. Frank, Yeah,
Speaker 1: and you know that Sony Michelle news is very big today.
Speaker 1: We're awaiting to uh what what will come of the
Speaker 1: m R. I Adam Schefter text from last night on
Speaker 1: Patriots Sony Michelle and his injured knee. Expect it will
Speaker 1: be a little bit but not overly serious. Won't know
Speaker 1: till they look at it Monday. And Inside Injuries quoted
Speaker 1: that and said could be a meniscus tear, which is
Speaker 1: what they suspected yesterday. We know that Sony Michelle was
Speaker 1: dealing with the knee injuries in the preseason, which held
Speaker 1: him out of a lot of the preseason obviously, which
Speaker 1: kind of slowed him coming into the year. But man,
Speaker 1: he was the past couple of weeks he was dominating
Speaker 1: for fantasy purposes. So if if Sony Michelle has to
Speaker 1: miss any time, whether even if it's a small amount
Speaker 1: of time, this is a big, big loss for fantasy owners,
Speaker 1: especially for people who might have been buying high which
Speaker 1: made perfect sense, because they were using Tony Michelle in
Speaker 1: the same way that they were using La Garrett Pon
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago. They get in the red zone,
Speaker 1: it's Sony Michelle time. He's a lot to score touchdowns.
Speaker 1: I mean, in that Patriots offense, whenever they get down there,
Speaker 1: they were using him. So people were likely buying high,
Speaker 1: they were trusting, they were, you know, buying in on
Speaker 1: Sony Michelle, and you know rightfully, so I wouldn't have
Speaker 1: gone against that mindset. Obviously the logical was there. But
Speaker 1: you know, any any amount of time that he misses,
Speaker 1: you're instantly out on like a low end RB one. Legitimately, Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's crazy. Sony Michell has been really, really good. Now
Speaker 1: James White steps up, they have to sign somebody else too,
Speaker 1: frank you think, obviously, Ken John Barner is there doing
Speaker 1: ten carries for thirty six yards yesterday. You wonder if
Speaker 1: they're bringing somebody else. Wasn't he like kind of there
Speaker 1: like last week or two weeks ago. I felt like
Speaker 1: they did, right, I couldn't miss that, um, But even
Speaker 1: if they didn't, I wouldn't be surprised if he's the
Speaker 1: guy who steps in because he has the familiarity obviously
Speaker 1: had a few big games last year. UM, but really
Speaker 1: anytime that's Ton him show MS, I think it's just
Speaker 1: obviously arrow pointing up for James White. We just saw
Speaker 1: that in this game where it really just forced at
Speaker 1: him in ball Aton. Yeah, it was. It was that
Speaker 1: kind of game, no doubt about it. Chicago trade Burton
Speaker 1: went off yesterday, which was good. Three Cohen has proven
Speaker 1: that you want him instead of wanting seven receptions in
Speaker 1: three straight games, now lead the team in targets yesterday,
Speaker 1: UM was second behind Burton in receptions and yards. Jordan
Speaker 1: Howard continues to be bad. So I had to ask
Speaker 1: and I used to it last week, probably this week
Speaker 1: for sure, you trade Jordan Howard. Three Cohen, Yes, uh
Speaker 1: in PPR. Definitely, definitely PPR. There's no doubt about that.
Speaker 1: The way that Cohen is being used the targets, he's
Speaker 1: getting the double digit targets, twelve targets yesterday, led the team.
Speaker 1: As you mentioned again three games in a row with
Speaker 1: at least seven receptions. They're just finding creative ways to
Speaker 1: get him involved. So you'd like to see that. But
Speaker 1: Jordan Howard again, I mean there just hasn't been efficiency.
Speaker 1: While he did score the touchdown, he's really become touchdown dependent.
Speaker 1: Like if you look at the games where he doesn't
Speaker 1: score a touchdown. Last week four fourteen for sixty nine,
Speaker 1: that was the There're only they've only been two games
Speaker 1: this year that he's averaged over four yards per carry.
Speaker 1: It was last week four point nine yards per carry,
Speaker 1: Week one against the Packers five point five yards per carry.
Speaker 1: Every other week he's been three point three yards per
Speaker 1: carry or less. So it's either a the Bears haven't
Speaker 1: been able to run block well or Jordan Howard's just
Speaker 1: missing his spots. I think it's a combination of like
Speaker 1: him just probably not getting enough work, getting his feet
Speaker 1: underneath HI getting into a routine. Uh, and you know
Speaker 1: he's coming off the field. They're using Trecohen more and more. Um.
Speaker 1: But obviously if you own him, maybe the fact that
Speaker 1: he scored a touchdown, you just try and shop him,
Speaker 1: see what you can get for him. But realistically, what
Speaker 1: are you getting for Jordan Howard right now? It's like
Speaker 1: you know, we we said the same thing about David
Speaker 1: Johnson at times this year. When you try to sell
Speaker 1: these guys, it just doesn't make sense to sell them
Speaker 1: wh they're when they're at their lowest. But who's to
Speaker 1: say that Jordan Jordan Howard can't get lower than where
Speaker 1: he is right now in terms of value, right like
Speaker 1: if he if he you know, starts to get even
Speaker 1: less and less work, we're proved to continue, you know,
Speaker 1: being this inefficient, and maybe his value can get even
Speaker 1: lower than Yeah, it's it's possible. I traded, as you know,
Speaker 1: I traded for Derrick Henry last week, kind of the
Speaker 1: same thing I tracked Christian Kirkway, which is nothing. What
Speaker 1: is Jermy Howard's value? Nothing? There's a lot of similarities
Speaker 1: between like Derrick Henry to John Howard David Johnson. They're
Speaker 1: really just like touch down dependent running backs. We take
Speaker 1: a break here, when we come back more and more

Speaker 1: The Daily Road Optimizer is regardless of sport. It really
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Greg, It's really kind of ridiculous, to be honest. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we've had We've had our own college Drew do work.

Speaker 1: now we just had somebody dominating basketball last night. To

Speaker 1: had thousand dollar winners. Go down the road. Dot Com
Speaker 1: the optimizer, we use it. It helped us cash on
Speaker 1: Friday night. Not not only that, but on Friday night late,
Speaker 1: I was at my buddy's watching basketball Judy like with
Speaker 1: her friends and they're like, all right, I'm gonna or
Speaker 1: some food and watch the NBA Friday night. You know,
Speaker 1: I had to a cold beers and I showed my
Speaker 1: buddy the dather would optimize. He was like, all right,

Speaker 1: Did you go, Frankie, next game? I wanted to get
Speaker 1: into We're wait wait, did I want to go next?
Speaker 1: Cleveland Tampa? You know Cleveland Tampa because Nick Chump in
Speaker 1: his first career start, eighteen carries eighty yards Duke Johnson.
Speaker 1: I don't want to carry Duke Johnson four receptions. This
Speaker 1: is Nick Chub's backfield from beginning to end. Frank Yes,
Speaker 1: it was. Duke Johnson just had the one carry minus
Speaker 1: four yards here. Nick Chubb had a long of twenty
Speaker 1: one in this game. But eighteen carries for eighty yards,
Speaker 1: as you mentioned, four point four yards per carry. I
Speaker 1: like to see that out of Chub right out of
Speaker 1: the gate here. I know it was a good match
Speaker 1: up against Tampa Bay. But while Carlos Hyde was getting
Speaker 1: a lot of work this season, he was not a
Speaker 1: very efficient running back on the yards per carry basis,
Speaker 1: So it's very nice to see Nick Chubb up over
Speaker 1: four yards per carry taking advantage of the great match
Speaker 1: up against Tampa Bay, scoring a touchdown in this one.
Speaker 1: But you're right, I mean, Duke Johnson, we were all
Speaker 1: expecting an uptick here. You know, maybe he'll get you
Speaker 1: know that those five to seven carrieres we were looking for,
Speaker 1: maybe you know, those six six to eight targets that
Speaker 1: we're looking for. Duke Johnson only had four targets. He
Speaker 1: caught four of them twenty three yards. So I personally
Speaker 1: am not expecting much out of Duke Johnson moving forward.
Speaker 1: I still think that his usage will be um inconsistent.
Speaker 1: We'll see if that changes. With Hugh Jackson obviously coming
Speaker 1: out saying that he wants to get more involved in
Speaker 1: the offense, this is a disaster. We were all kind
Speaker 1: of waiting for this to happen eventually, right Like, there's
Speaker 1: no way Hugh Jackson is gonna sit there and let
Speaker 1: a whole season go by where he doesn't, you know,
Speaker 1: try and mess things up unquote makes them better. Um,
Speaker 1: you know that. Look, Honestly, Todd Haley has not been great.
Speaker 1: I'm not you know, I'm not gonna defend the guy,
Speaker 1: but it's just it was obvious that Hugh Jackson was
Speaker 1: gonna step in at some point. On the other side,
Speaker 1: Jamis Winston, what do we say every week? A lot
Speaker 1: of volume, over fifty passing attempts, a lot of yards
Speaker 1: three and sixty five yards, still throws, a lot of interceptions,
Speaker 1: had two interceptions in this game, didn't throw for a touchdown.
Speaker 1: He was the Bucks leading rusher, though, Greg, with fifty
Speaker 1: five yards in a touchdown. You know who was not
Speaker 1: good in this game, Greg Peyton Barber, who I told
Speaker 1: you last week not fool around with, not get involved.
Speaker 1: Do not have him your number one waiver claim. Not
Speaker 1: pick him up. You don't want any part of the
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Bucks running attack here. Peyton Barber proved why.
Speaker 1: Ronald Jones, of course, just managed to sneak in and
Speaker 1: vulture a touchdown. I I was so annoyed Ronald Jones
Speaker 1: on the field for that. It wasn't Peyton barbera for
Speaker 1: the touchdown. The running game for Tampa Bay just terrible. Obviously,
Speaker 1: Jameis Winston was good, but everybody else not so good.
Speaker 1: Mike Evans got back on track with the seven for one. Seven.
Speaker 1: They can't run back, they just can't do it. And
Speaker 1: they're in so many negative game scripts they're never gonna
Speaker 1: like even in this game where they're actually leading for
Speaker 1: a lot of it, just nothing could get going on
Speaker 1: the ground. They cannot run back. Just do not use
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay running running backs. It's it's as easy as that.
Speaker 1: Do not get involved the Bucks. As I said, got
Speaker 1: more from Mike Evans with the seven for one of seven. O. J.
Speaker 1: Howard as good as ever. Cameron brad uh still doing nothing.
Speaker 1: So guys, you want to trust here? O J. Howard,
Speaker 1: Mike Evans, your boy Chris Gowan was five, did not
Speaker 1: get in the end zone. Frankie, Yeah, it was solid,
Speaker 1: it was it was, you know, a safe floor performance
Speaker 1: from him. Six targets, five receptions. I think one of
Speaker 1: the bigger letdowns here was the Shawan Jackson we saw
Speaker 1: Cleveland rush the past couple of weeks. Yeah, he did
Speaker 1: rush for touchdown, which is very very random. I mean yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean that helps about the fact that the only
Speaker 1: give you two receptions for twenty five yards. We saw
Speaker 1: the week before the Cleveland Browns faced the Chargers that
Speaker 1: give have two long touchdowns to Tyrell Williams. I thought
Speaker 1: that we could get at least one of those out
Speaker 1: of the Shawan Jackson. But it's it's nice to see
Speaker 1: Mike Evans get back on track with Jameis Winston as
Speaker 1: the quarterback, something that he really hadn't done the past
Speaker 1: two games with Jamis there. Uh, Jarvis Landry finally turning
Speaker 1: targets into some kind of production here ten receptions, nineties
Speaker 1: seven yards a touchdown. Um. I think this is closer
Speaker 1: to what we should expect or get out of Jarvis Landry,
Speaker 1: right Like, don't target the guy down the field as much.
Speaker 1: I know they've been trying to use him as in
Speaker 1: that Antonio Brown role. But nine point seven yards per catch,
Speaker 1: that's the Jarvis Landry we know, and getting on getting
Speaker 1: a lot of receptions close to the line of scrimmage.
Speaker 1: Let him do work after the catch. This is the
Speaker 1: way that they need to use Jarvis Landry. And obviously
Speaker 1: two weeks in a row, David Joku is quickly stepping
Speaker 1: up as a trusty a Titan that you could trust
Speaker 1: every single week. With the touchdowns and back to back
Speaker 1: games and obviously all the targets coming into fruition for
Speaker 1: fantasy purpose. Yeah, listen, I you call the Jarvis Landry
Speaker 1: bounced back. It was seemingly inevitable. Uh. The fifteen targets
Speaker 1: more than double the other player on the Browns yesterday.
Speaker 1: It was the exact type of game you want from
Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry and an intuition on the one yard line
Speaker 1: just to roll in the endzone was great. It was
Speaker 1: absolutely awesome. Um, Jarvis Landry, Damian David and Joeku the
Speaker 1: two clear primary options for Baker Mayfield and they have
Speaker 1: been since Baker Mayfield took over as the starting quarterback
Speaker 1: of the Browns. Unfortunately, Damian Ratley not a thing. No,
Speaker 1: it wasn't great in this game, but as you mentioned, look,
Speaker 1: Jarvis Landrys dominated targets. He had more than double the
Speaker 1: targets of anybody else. While and joke was still great.
Speaker 1: He had six targets in this game. But Jarvis Landry
Speaker 1: just dominating fifteen targets, so continues to have that high
Speaker 1: target share. I like the fact that they you know,
Speaker 1: used him on on more of those shorts of intermediate routes,
Speaker 1: not trying to do so much of the you know,
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown down the field kind of role that Todd
Speaker 1: Haley has kind of placed Jarvis Landry and early into
Speaker 1: this season. I like what we saw here and I
Speaker 1: think that we can continue to take that into the
Speaker 1: next couple of weeks. With the Browns having a beautiful
Speaker 1: schedule coming up, We're just schedule something up for fantasy purposes.
Speaker 1: Nick Chubb R B two solidly. Yeah. I think he
Speaker 1: just kind of like steps right into where Carlos Hyde
Speaker 1: is kind of like seamlessly. Um the efficiency was here.
Speaker 1: Still had eighteen carries. Like there were nineteen running back carries.
Speaker 1: Nick Schubb had eighteen of them. They used a second
Speaker 1: round draft pick on him for a reason. Um, we
Speaker 1: like Carlos Hyde. I think Nick Chubb just kind of
Speaker 1: slots him there. High RB two Okay, I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: catch passes out No. Zero is the same thing that carlo'
Speaker 1: shide was doing. He doesn't He does not cash passes.
Speaker 1: They don't throw they throw running backs Duke Johnson and
Speaker 1: they don't really throw him either. Carolina had a big
Speaker 1: bounce back yesterday. In that game, they were down seventeen
Speaker 1: to nothing twenty one unanswered port points and Cam Newton
Speaker 1: brings them all the way down and he's victorious. In
Speaker 1: this one. Newton was the leading rushers for the team.
Speaker 1: He had four nine yeards rushing CMC man fifty one
Speaker 1: yards of the passing game. I feel like that was
Speaker 1: he's let you down. But we have a week. Christian
Speaker 1: McCaffrey last two weeks, seven attempts twenty nine yards, eight
Speaker 1: attamps twenty yards, seventeen attempts fifty eight yards other than
Speaker 1: the breakout against the Mangals on the ground, A little
Speaker 1: bit of a disappointment from Christian McCaffrey. Yeah, he absolutely is.
Speaker 1: You know, I was, I was rolling, uh, you know,
Speaker 1: scrolling through to the box scores yesterday, and this is
Speaker 1: something that I felt we should bring up. I don't
Speaker 1: know if people realize that Christian McCaffrey, he's had the
Speaker 1: safe floor in PPR because six receptions this week, seven
Speaker 1: receptions the week before that, uh, five receptions the week
Speaker 1: before that against the New York Giants. So the floor
Speaker 1: in terms of PPR has been there. He's giving you receptions,
Speaker 1: he's getting targeted. But as you mentioned, Greg, he's not.
Speaker 1: He hasn't been efficient running the football in the past
Speaker 1: three weeks. He's been at four point one yards per carry,
Speaker 1: two point five yards per carry, three point four yards
Speaker 1: per carry. He's only scored one touchdown total in six games. Greg.
Speaker 1: That wasn't even a rushing touchdown, that was a receiving touchdown.
Speaker 1: So I know that you know he's been reliable for PPR,
Speaker 1: but I don't know that he's really given fantasy owners
Speaker 1: what they expected in terms of ceiling. He's not having
Speaker 1: these monster games. Aside from that Bengals game which you reference.
Speaker 1: The good thing about Christian McCaffrey is at least he's
Speaker 1: on the field. At least he's giving you something, right,
Speaker 1: So that back into the first round, Leonard Fournette, Dalvin Cook,
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey, while he hasn't been great, at least he's
Speaker 1: giving you something, whereas Dalvin Cook and Leonard Fournette have
Speaker 1: just been utter disasters because of their respective hamstring injuries.
Speaker 1: Speaking of hamstring injuries, we saw Melvin Gordon in active yesterday.
Speaker 1: Let's just hope that, you know, having this week off
Speaker 1: and then the bye week next week will be enough
Speaker 1: for Melvin Gordon to get back on track. Really really
Speaker 1: cannot have this hamstring injury from Melvin Gordon turned into
Speaker 1: a lingering one like it has for for Net and
Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook. But you hope this is why they held
Speaker 1: him out, because was like, this was the best handling
Speaker 1: of a hamstring injury that we've seen all year. Tweaks
Speaker 1: and out of the running back pitch. Tweaks it on
Speaker 1: a Friday and practice. Sit him out, Sit him out.
Speaker 1: You know you have to buy the week after. Let's
Speaker 1: be smart about this. You have more than cable backup
Speaker 1: in an Austin Ekeler and it worked out. Speak. Let's
Speaker 1: gonna round a plus Anthony Lennon, the Chargers man for
Speaker 1: actually doing the right thing. You know, every single week,
Speaker 1: Mike Zimmer, Uh, you know the Jaguars, it's just like,
Speaker 1: all right, we're gonna try and rush Alvin cookback. We're
Speaker 1: gonna try and rush Leonard Fournette back. You know, they
Speaker 1: get banged up. They got all these setbacks. Uh, you
Speaker 1: know every week I was Leonard Fournet gonna play. We
Speaker 1: don't know, he gets ruled out, Like come on, we
Speaker 1: know the guy isn't gonna play until after the bye week.
Speaker 1: They traded for Carlos Hype for a reason, and I know,
Speaker 1: you know, I tweeted out Friday, Greg, I thought that
Speaker 1: Leonard Fournett was gonna land on the I R. I
Speaker 1: guess there's still there's still a chance that it could happen.
Speaker 1: But I just don't really understand why this team would
Speaker 1: trade for Carlos Hide if they expected Leonard Fournette to
Speaker 1: do something this year. I completely agree with you, and
Speaker 1: we'll see if if it comes to fruition. Um, I
Speaker 1: want to get a Jacksonville just the moment. Don't me
Speaker 1: stick with the Chargers here for a second. What do
Speaker 1: you think of Mike Rebel's decision to go for it?
Speaker 1: I honestly didn't see that because I was just about
Speaker 1: heading into the Jet game because nineties starts, so you know,
Speaker 1: we were. It was close to like one o'clock, right,
Speaker 1: I'd imagine that like the end of that game. So
Speaker 1: if you could fill me in, Greg, well, he went.
Speaker 1: They scored the game time, theoretical game time and touchdown. Uh,
Speaker 1: to send in an overtime, but hitting the extra point,
Speaker 1: they go for two first play, the first play, defensive
Speaker 1: whole things. The wall goes to the one. They go
Speaker 1: for two again. Weird play call. Uh, they didn't run it.
Speaker 1: They didn't like Mariotta just like quarterback sneak it um
Speaker 1: it was it passed Timeline Taylor, I believe, and it
Speaker 1: fell incomplete. Wasn't this the second time this hear that
Speaker 1: Mike Faebel has done something crazy? Like yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: it was overtime and overtime game. He went for yeah,
Speaker 1: playing have the win, not to get to overtime, and
Speaker 1: it was interesting. It was a very interesting decision. Chargers
Speaker 1: improved to five and two, the Titans dropped to three
Speaker 1: and four with this loss. Yeah. You know, one thing
Speaker 1: I will take away from this game fantasy wise is
Speaker 1: Dean Lewis right, finally had a pretty good game here.
Speaker 1: Thirteen rushes for ninety one yards seven yards per carry. Again,
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry, the same thing that we've said about Jordan Howard,
Speaker 1: David Johnson. He's touchdown dependent. That's a twelve carries thirty
Speaker 1: three yards, two point eight yards per carry. Yeah, he
Speaker 1: scored a touchdown. Uh. He actually had a few receptions
Speaker 1: in this game, which isn't normal. But Dan Lewis targeted
Speaker 1: six times, called all six for sixty four yards. This
Speaker 1: offense is bad. Like, it's good to see that Dan
Speaker 1: Lewis actually did something for fantasy purposes here, Like if
Speaker 1: you needed to use him as a bye week replacement,
Speaker 1: you felt great about what you got out of him. Well,
Speaker 1: let's look at the rest, like Taj Sharp in nobody's
Speaker 1: lineup that helps absolutely nobody for fantasy purposes. Seven for
Speaker 1: one oh one. Yeah, sure, a great game. But guess
Speaker 1: where Corey Davis is? Greg all the way down the
Speaker 1: box score, three receptions, ten yards. I brought this up
Speaker 1: last week, did why did this guy continuously get ranked
Speaker 1: as a top twenty four wide receiver? You know, even
Speaker 1: like you can argue is he a wide receiver three?
Speaker 1: At this point, He's had one great game against the Eagles.
Speaker 1: He still had seven targets in this game, but he
Speaker 1: is not converting targets into fantasy productions. So, Corey Davis,
Speaker 1: I think, you know, for the foreseeable future, he is
Speaker 1: a bench a you know, prove it to me first
Speaker 1: before I get you back in my fantasy lineup kind
Speaker 1: of guy. Okay, So I completely agree with the Corey Davis.
Speaker 1: The other side, Tarall Williams has the big game again.
Speaker 1: I know it's never going to be consistent. I know
Speaker 1: it's never going to be some you can rely on,
Speaker 1: but four catches over a hundred yards and other touchdown. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, look, he's this is a classic best ball guy,
Speaker 1: you know, but it's mid season. So what do we do, right,
Speaker 1: we pick him up, you start, you start to play him.
Speaker 1: I mean, the next time that you play him, he's
Speaker 1: probably gonna have one of these games where you know,
Speaker 1: it gives you two for twenty two. He did that
Speaker 1: against the Rams earlier on in the season. But you
Speaker 1: can't ignore what he's done back to back one yard games,
Speaker 1: three touchdowns over his last two games against the Titans
Speaker 1: against the Cleveland Browns. To me, he's no more than
Speaker 1: a bye week replacement because while he's making big plays
Speaker 1: happen greg, he still hasn't only been targeted no more
Speaker 1: than four times in each of the past three games.
Speaker 1: Four targets yesterday, four targets against the Browns, three targets
Speaker 1: against the Raiders. He hasn't had more than five targets
Speaker 1: in any game. So he really is just a bloomer
Speaker 1: bust bye week replacement. And speaking of by replacement, he's
Speaker 1: not buy next week. So what do you do with
Speaker 1: Tyrell Williams. Nothing? Unfortunately, I get you you mentioned Jacksonville before,
Speaker 1: and the Carlos Hide trade. Jack in Ville was so
Speaker 1: bad yesterday that we saw Blake Bortles get bench when
Speaker 1: they asked who would be the starter next week? Who
Speaker 1: would be the starter next week? I don't know. It
Speaker 1: has all gone through pieces with the Jacksonville Jaguars here
Speaker 1: this season they said at three and four. Now the Texans,
Speaker 1: miraculously after being oh and three, are now four and
Speaker 1: three in control of this division, which we thought a
Speaker 1: pretty competitive division. Now since it is one of the
Speaker 1: worst divisions of football, we have the I believe that
Speaker 1: the culture two and five, the Jason three and four,
Speaker 1: the Houston Texas, we knew it. Who would have thought, right?
Speaker 1: I mean, it seems like that is this team winning
Speaker 1: in spite of Bill O'Brien right now, Like it's it's
Speaker 1: just so wild what they're doing. Their offensive line as
Speaker 1: bad as it is, Like this is just not I
Speaker 1: don't I personally believe the Houston Texans are not a
Speaker 1: good football team, but I just think it just speaks volumes.
Speaker 1: So where this division is at right now, the Indianapolis Colts,
Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars, the Tennessee Titans, like the Titans are
Speaker 1: a team that they have the ability to hang with
Speaker 1: good team. We saw that against the Eagles. Their defense
Speaker 1: can be great, but again their offense, like the offenses
Speaker 1: all around this division, I mean maybe outside of the Colts,
Speaker 1: because they look great yesterday it was against the Bills.
Speaker 1: Andrew Luck has been putting up monster fantasy numbers, but
Speaker 1: for actual NFL purposes, Um has not been great, turning
Speaker 1: the ball over a lot. That's a really really weird
Speaker 1: division right now. And I know, you know, Gabe brings
Speaker 1: up the Giants trading for Derek Carr a lot. He
Speaker 1: thinks that, like that's like an ideal fit. Yeah. I
Speaker 1: think the Jacksonville Jaguars makes a lot of sense to write, like,
Speaker 1: like what you need is a quarterback. Like you're a
Speaker 1: quarterback away, you have a great defense, You trade for
Speaker 1: Carlos Hide, and you have t J. Yelden, so you
Speaker 1: have a little thunder and lightning there at the running
Speaker 1: back position. You drafted Leonard four Nette. You need a quarterback.
Speaker 1: I think Derek Carr makes a lot of sense for
Speaker 1: this team too. Not that you know Derek car is
Speaker 1: gonna light the world on fire, but he's better than
Speaker 1: Blake Bortles. It's interesting, Derek Carr, you've heard mentioned, You've
Speaker 1: heard Eli Manning mentioned, given the Jacksonville connection, Like, what
Speaker 1: is he gonna do? You know? I I agree, I'd
Speaker 1: love for them to do it. Blake Bortles. One thing
Speaker 1: you was good for yesterday leading Russia for the team.
Speaker 1: What do you know? Only play the six carries for
Speaker 1: three yards? T J yelled, and obviously, I mean they
Speaker 1: just couldn't muster any offense here. He did still catch
Speaker 1: the that receiving touchdown on a great effort um and
Speaker 1: that's probably gonna be a lot of his role moving forward.
Speaker 1: I think more so in the passing game with Carlos
Speaker 1: Hodd coming into Dann seven for seventy six in this
Speaker 1: one for Jacksonville. On the other side. You know who
Speaker 1: didn't suck yesterday, uh Lamar Miller. Lamar Miller. I asked
Speaker 1: you about him Friday. I teach you up. I gave
Speaker 1: you an opportunity to pump up Lamar Miller in this matchup.
Speaker 1: We thought it would be a great game. What I say,
Speaker 1: Lamar Miller sucks and a hundred for Touchdow I give
Speaker 1: credit words dude, Will Foller. By the way, it looks
Speaker 1: healthy six for sixty eight yesterday. Well, kik q T
Speaker 1: I forgot what chances the pronunciation qt I love the game,
Speaker 1: reaggravating the astring injury. So uh, tough break for Kett.
Speaker 1: There we take a break here, We'll come back more
Speaker 1: around the NFL. Fantasy Best Friends Forever, Fantasy Sports Right Network.

Speaker 1: don't think I really love like seventies, eighties and nineties,
Speaker 1: and I think I was born in the right time. Like,
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. Maybe I take the music
Speaker 1: of my generation growing up for granted. I'm just kind
Speaker 1: of tired of it, man, Like I like hearing the
Speaker 1: older stuff. Dude. Probably not classic rock though, Like screw that,
Speaker 1: as you wouldn't enjoy like dance, you know, dance some

Speaker 1: gonna have a bunch of Bruce Springsteen and Billy Joel
Speaker 1: and stuff? Nope? What do you have not seventies? I
Speaker 1: mean it doesn't have to be seventies. Can we get
Speaker 1: a can I kind of request a song at least
Speaker 1: during I mean we're best friends. I mean I should
Speaker 1: probably get a song at your wedding. You know requests.
Speaker 1: Why you're gonna a DJ. We're gonna have a live band, right,
Speaker 1: So what are they gonna play? Hopefully a lot of
Speaker 1: today music like what I know you're big, You're a
Speaker 1: big like you know, Top forty kids kind of guy. Yeah,

Speaker 1: Definitely that's your thing. But I think I should one
Speaker 1: song that I can request, you know, like I'm your
Speaker 1: best friend. It's gonna go to your wedding. You plind
Speaker 1: it on my birthday for your purpose for you, Like
Speaker 1: I assume that there will be birthday cake there for me. No, yeah,
Speaker 1: have a birthday cake, like it'll be a wedding cake,
Speaker 1: like all right, what about that? Like on the side,
Speaker 1: they'll be like a birthday. I'll cut off a piece,
Speaker 1: make sure you get handled and like everybody there singing
Speaker 1: to me. Um, they could sing that will be the biggest.
Speaker 1: They could sing what am I going to turn? Yeah big,
Speaker 1: the big eighty. They could sing you get something that
Speaker 1: will be cake and you could sing I can sing sure,
Speaker 1: will everyone else sing with me? Definitely? Band? Everybody was
Speaker 1: I didn't anything about happy birthday and just said they'll
Speaker 1: be singing. No whatever, it's kind of messed up. Sorry,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't treat you like that. You would. When's your birthday? February?
Speaker 1: Is something? Right? I admittedly I have no idea? Uh
Speaker 1: no I do. It's a February, obviously it's not where
Speaker 1: at the shot though, it was that close. Yeah, we
Speaker 1: go off? Uh the eleven? Is it? Actually? Yes? All
Speaker 1: right maybe eleven. I'll be my wedding three years from now,
Speaker 1: February eleven. I think I was thinking taking off that
Speaker 1: day next year, just following your stuffs? Are you? Are
Speaker 1: you mocking me? No? You know, honestly I was looking
Speaker 1: at flights the Florida my mom in February, and that
Speaker 1: week is very cheap. I can get there for under
Speaker 1: a two hundred bucks. Snap, you want to go away
Speaker 1: that week too? We'll talk off the year? Oh god, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: we gotta talk about this. We're shutting down F and
Speaker 1: T S wife for a week. Video coming out of
Speaker 1: the studio. No nothing, God, let's pretend when this didn't happen.
Speaker 1: Corey Parson, the Fantasy executive, is in charge. Josh Reynolds, Man,
Speaker 1: what a disaster? I mean? Was it? Though? Yes? What
Speaker 1: do you want one catch? The thing is like relative
Speaker 1: to expectations though, right like, no, like, what were you
Speaker 1: actually expecting him? I thought he could be covered? Um, yes,
Speaker 1: well I started him. Yeah, I mean we started him
Speaker 1: and we started. Look it was it was a good spot.
Speaker 1: It was against the San Francisco forty Niners. Their secondary
Speaker 1: was not great. The Rams absolutely washed him in this game,
Speaker 1: to be honestly, just really didn't need Josh Reynolds to
Speaker 1: do all that much. Obviously, Cook scored a touchdown. What
Speaker 1: do you know, Todd Girly another week, another three touchdowns.
Speaker 1: I mean, the guys just an absolute machine. They just
Speaker 1: really didn't need Josh Reynalds to do all that much.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Greg, I think the process was there though,
Speaker 1: right Like, it was a good matchup steps in as
Speaker 1: a starter. I still like three wide receiver sets, you know,
Speaker 1: so I started both of my pickups this week. Who
Speaker 1: were Josh Reynolds and the rat No, Jamaine I was
Speaker 1: at that game. Look, he was on the field of
Speaker 1: Ton just didn't get targeted for whatever reason. Look, Sam
Speaker 1: Sam Donald needs help. He threw three interceptions, but a
Speaker 1: few of those wore tipped passes off of his receiver's hands. Yet, Uh,
Speaker 1: there was a drive where I think he threw it
Speaker 1: three times and all three of them were dropped passes,
Speaker 1: Like Sam Donald needs help. The offensive line isn't great,
Speaker 1: I think in the all season. I mean those will
Speaker 1: obviously be you know, the big thing, like when you
Speaker 1: have a quarterback that young, you need to just surround
Speaker 1: him with talent. You gotta shore up the offensive line,
Speaker 1: you gotta get him receivers and obviously, you know what,
Speaker 1: what's the last big name pass rusher the Jets have had.
Speaker 1: I was talking with Jets fans about this. How long
Speaker 1: ago was that they need a pass rusher? I mean
Speaker 1: they the Jets are a flukey team right like they
Speaker 1: were three and three coming into this game. They're not
Speaker 1: an actual three and three team. There's still a team
Speaker 1: that's like learning. It would be better in the future.
Speaker 1: It's just it's not gonna happen this year for the Jets. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Frank, Why um, there's there's no reason. I mean,
Speaker 1: he was on the field a lot. He played you know,
Speaker 1: four I think he played like something like clost of
Speaker 1: seventy snaps in this game, and forty of them were
Speaker 1: in the slot, so like our process was right. What
Speaker 1: we thought was like he played the slot. Sam Donald
Speaker 1: typically targets that slot receiver role a lot. They you know,
Speaker 1: they cut Terrell prior over the weekend. Everything about our
Speaker 1: process I think was right. There's no results, not a
Speaker 1: single pass throne at Jamaine Curse. Sam Donald hit eight receivers,
Speaker 1: none of whom was their leading receiver most of the
Speaker 1: day was Chris her In and then late as became Canada. Right.
Speaker 1: I mean we should probably talk about Herndon right because
Speaker 1: about he's uh, you know, he's trending in the right direction.
Speaker 1: They drafted they used a fourth round from Traptic on
Speaker 1: his kid tight end Adam you know Miami, but you
Speaker 1: know they draft him and Sam Donald together. And what
Speaker 1: we said about the like connection especially no but like
Speaker 1: rookies coming in together too. It's something that's why we
Speaker 1: thought Josh Rosen and Christian Kirk could be a thing
Speaker 1: because you know rookies. They got the rookie minicamp obviously, uh,
Speaker 1: and you know they're just growing together. But it's back
Speaker 1: to back games with a touchdown now, uh. Season high
Speaker 1: in terms of targets, re end, receptions for Chris Herndon.
Speaker 1: He had seven targets four receptions, So, um, maybe this
Speaker 1: will be more of a thing that they, you know,
Speaker 1: game plan for moving forward, like, hey, let's actually get
Speaker 1: Chris Herndon involved. Uh, It's just like there's been some
Speaker 1: games where it's Jordan Leggett. There's been some games where
Speaker 1: Neil Sterling gets involved too. So if they just make
Speaker 1: him like the go to tight end, the pass catcher,
Speaker 1: I certainly believe that he do has some talent. The Jets.
Speaker 1: I wanted to talk about the Jets. They kind of
Speaker 1: appreciate that. I mean, look, there's nothing else, but hey,
Speaker 1: Adam feeling really good? Talk about that. I love how
Speaker 1: I got hurt um, which means Carol steps up into
Speaker 1: into this main back role um and he did not
Speaker 1: do much at all. And if the Power were forced
Speaker 1: to miss anything deeper leagues, I was so pissed when
Speaker 1: they kept just harding Trent and Cannon in the last drive.
Speaker 1: I'm so angry in deeper leagues. I do think that
Speaker 1: Trent Cannon is a name to watch if anything is
Speaker 1: wrong with you know there. I mean, Isaiah Roell was
Speaker 1: dealing with a foot injury, So they're not just gonna
Speaker 1: forceeed him twenty touches per game. So if anything happens
Speaker 1: to Powell, Trent and Cannon will step in as a
Speaker 1: pass catching running back and their sile Tavis Murray and
Speaker 1: two more touchdowns. Do you think that we Cook another setback?
Speaker 1: That was that what we're thinking? I mean, it hasn't.
Speaker 1: Hasn't his whole season been a set back? Really? I mean,
Speaker 1: to be fair, it's like every single week is a setback.
Speaker 1: He practiced last week and full on like Wednesday or Thursday,
Speaker 1: and the next day now thing, and then Friday comes out.
Speaker 1: They just rule them out. So I mean, it's good
Speaker 1: to see that they're actually just like ruling him out.
Speaker 1: But maybe him having that full practice, maybe he pushed
Speaker 1: it a little bit too hard and he did have
Speaker 1: some kind of stepback. So hopefully if you you drafted
Speaker 1: Talvin Cook, you drafted Tabs Murray as well, because if
Speaker 1: you didn't, then you probably like two in five real,
Speaker 1: to be honest, for Net and Cook just absolutely brutal
Speaker 1: magice starting in twelfth of their team. Cook and for
Speaker 1: Net you probably felt so great on draft day and
Speaker 1: then coming back at the three fourth turn and taking
Speaker 1: like a Marie Cooper into Marius Thomas. What a great team.
Speaker 1: That is unbelievable. What a disaster, disaster disasters, Sorry that
Speaker 1: it feels good though Russ taking him, they might have
Speaker 1: been able to get him at a three fourths turn.
Speaker 1: Probably not another hundred yard game for Theland who had
Speaker 1: nined for one ten. He's the Todd Gurley of the
Speaker 1: wide receiver position, which is crazy to say because it's
Speaker 1: like there's only one Todd Gurley. But every single week
Speaker 1: the guy is scoring a hundred yards in touchdown every
Speaker 1: single week. Crazy thing. Stefan is actually targeted more. He
Speaker 1: was started fourteen times. Actually had a really weird season.
Speaker 1: He's looking into his game log last night. I was
Speaker 1: tweeting about it. Drink um. He's had three games of
Speaker 1: ninety one or more yards. He's had two one yard games.
Speaker 1: He's had um four games with forty three yards are less.
Speaker 1: So while the targets have been there, like fourteen targets
Speaker 1: in this game, eight receptions. He average four point one
Speaker 1: yards per catch. There's been two games where he's averaged
Speaker 1: four point three yards per catch and four point one
Speaker 1: yards for kids, Why do they just not know how
Speaker 1: to get Stefan Digs involved the right way. It's just
Speaker 1: very weird the game involved. There's a few games where
Speaker 1: they're just like throwing him the ball like or behind
Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage a ton like. That's it. They're
Speaker 1: not targeting down the field. And I know there was.
Speaker 1: It was very windy yesterday, it was very cold, so
Speaker 1: it made sense to not try and throw the ball
Speaker 1: down the field all that much. But it's like, at least,
Speaker 1: what about some of these intermediate routes, some crossing patterns, something.
Speaker 1: Get Stefan Digs the ball on his hands and see
Speaker 1: what he can do to the catch. Honestly, they're thinking, is, hey,
Speaker 1: our offense has been just fine targeting Adam Feeling a ton,
Speaker 1: And you know, why would they change anything? From their perspective,
Speaker 1: they don't need to. They've won three games in a
Speaker 1: row and their offenses look great during those games, so
Speaker 1: I don't think they really need to change Stefon Dig's usage,
Speaker 1: which is kind of frustrating for fantasy purposes. Gurley had
Speaker 1: three touchdowns, Speaking of Todd for the Rams yesterday, He's
Speaker 1: on page to break the record for most touchdowns in
Speaker 1: a season receiving and rushing. On page for thirty two.
Speaker 1: Who has the record? Is it Priest homes Will Thomas Thomson,
Speaker 1: John Pace for thirty two, which you know, while that,
Speaker 1: while that was happening, and then like a couple of
Speaker 1: years later, you're like, you look at that, and you're like,
Speaker 1: you know, no one's gonna come close to Elsie's record, right,
Speaker 1: like thirty thirty touchdowns from running back. I mean, I
Speaker 1: certainly thought like there's no like, no one's gonna come
Speaker 1: close to that. It's also it's also so interesting in
Speaker 1: this year or this era of the shotgun passing and
Speaker 1: the rams. Rarely you shotgun a single back formation to
Speaker 1: do everything out of nine the snapses and that eleven formation, um,
Speaker 1: and they're just so so dynamic and girly is so
Speaker 1: so good. Robert Woods live the team receiving. He hit
Speaker 1: five for seventy eight, Brandon Cooks four for sixty four
Speaker 1: and the touchdowns. As I said, Josh Reynolds did not
Speaker 1: get involved. On the other side, George Kittle continues to
Speaker 1: rake five or nineteen a Touchdown't you feel really really
Speaker 1: good about George Kittle? Mark, He's Goodwin. Here's the problem
Speaker 1: comes right down, break back down to earth. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: what we expected to be a good matchup two, But
Speaker 1: it wasn't just him. It was C. J. Bethard, Like
Speaker 1: Bethor didn't do anything in this game. A hundred and
Speaker 1: seventy yards, six point three yards per attempt, one touchdown,
Speaker 1: two interceptions, just wasn't great. Obviously, have to mention Matt Brita,
Speaker 1: who you know, reaggravated that ankle injury, left the game
Speaker 1: five carries for fifteen yards. But our guy for he Mostert, uh,
Speaker 1: he only got seven carries but looked very good in
Speaker 1: those carries. He pointed four yards per carry. And I
Speaker 1: think they just need to kind of like end the
Speaker 1: Alfred Morris thing. Let's just see what this kid Mostert
Speaker 1: can do. Obviously, they signed Jack McKinnon, he'll be back
Speaker 1: next year, but like, let's just see what you have
Speaker 1: in the kid, right that Brita in and out of
Speaker 1: the game with that ankle injury. Who knows this datus
Speaker 1: for next week? It could be the Alfred Morris for
Speaker 1: he Moostirt show, but we'll see ultimately. Uh. They just
Speaker 1: when breed up the game, they did try to give
Speaker 1: the ball to Kyle you shoul check ones. It worked
Speaker 1: very very poorly that that Packers game is gonna end
Speaker 1: up being the outlier for the forty Niners offense. They're
Speaker 1: not good. It's really just George Kittle. I don't think
Speaker 1: on a week tweek basis, it's been it's been proven.
Speaker 1: You can't trust any forty Niners receiver outside of George Kittle.
Speaker 1: You can't trust a goodwin because we thought this was
Speaker 1: a good matchup. You obviously can't trust Pierre Garsoney's probably
Speaker 1: not even owned in a lot of leagues anymore. Um,
Speaker 1: you know, how many games are they gonna be playing
Speaker 1: from behind? Maybe you know, maybe you just don't really
Speaker 1: want much to do with their running game at all.
Speaker 1: Thinking side ends as I mentioned George Kittle. Um, you know,
Speaker 1: let's actually sign off YouTube first. Before we get into
Speaker 1: this point, I want to say goodbye to our YouTube audience.
Speaker 1: I want to thank you for watching us. Fantasy Football
Speaker 1: Frenzy comes your way. Next the Corey person, Jim Day,
Speaker 1: and Chris Ventra. If you're listening on the radio, live
Speaker 1: we go another five minutes. If you're listening to the podcast,
Speaker 1: please subscribe, give us five stars, leave a comment, rate
Speaker 1: us we we really really appreciate it and thank you
Speaker 1: very very very much. Mentioned you kid and the success
Speaker 1: he has had at the ten end position. You mentioned
Speaker 1: Chris Herndon a little bit earlier on for Washington who
Speaker 1: meat Dallas yesterday? Jordan Read four targets only two receptions
Speaker 1: for forty three yards. Is Jordan Read benchable and or
Speaker 1: drop herble? The question is who, like who you're dropping
Speaker 1: him for? He's not doing Chris Herndon, probably not okay,
Speaker 1: like the Jets to spread the ball around, Like like
Speaker 1: if you have someone in your bench, if it's a
Speaker 1: deeper league, do I want to drop Jordan Read for him?
Speaker 1: Probably not, But like Jordan Reed hasn't done anything, Like
Speaker 1: if you have someone else on your team that you
Speaker 1: can afford to drop to try and pick up Chris
Speaker 1: Herndon and maybe start him over Jordan Read okay, But
Speaker 1: like it's just like who are you dropping him for?
Speaker 1: There's nobody, There's nobody out there, like he isn't doing anything.
Speaker 1: But like tight ends in general are not doing anything.
Speaker 1: I would have you know, probably do it for like
Speaker 1: Austin Hooper, But Austin Hooper's owned now ready, So how
Speaker 1: many leagues is Austin who even available? In he hasn't
Speaker 1: scored a touchdown since Week one. He hasn't been over
Speaker 1: forty three yards in each of his past three games.
Speaker 1: He did have sixty five yards four games to go
Speaker 1: against the Packers, which seems like forever ago. But the
Speaker 1: targets haven't necessarily been there. The usage hasn't been there.
Speaker 1: And I understand what Jordan Reid. You know, you don't
Speaker 1: want the guy on the field all that much because
Speaker 1: he's he's extremely injury prone. But even when he's on
Speaker 1: the field, the usage hasn't been there. The targets have
Speaker 1: been inconsistent, specifically the past three weeks. So yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean you could drop him, but the question is who
Speaker 1: you're dropping for. I don't know. Yeah, there's I wish
Speaker 1: I had better answer for it. Still, Look, it's just
Speaker 1: it's it's the nature of the tight end position. We
Speaker 1: talked about this every single year, um, but who has
Speaker 1: been like the one constant at the tight end position.
Speaker 1: It's actually been zach Ertz. That Gertz has been the
Speaker 1: best tight end this year, the most consistent by far.
Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey of course has the upside to have big
Speaker 1: games in that Chief's offense, but the Chief's offense is
Speaker 1: also a blessing and a curse for Travis Kelsey because
Speaker 1: they have so many good options that they don't need
Speaker 1: to force feed him every week. You have Tyreek Hill.
Speaker 1: One week, it could be saying Watkins. It could be
Speaker 1: the Kareem Hunt Show. That's what it was last night.
Speaker 1: So you know the fact that the Chief's offense is
Speaker 1: as good as it is is actually a blessing and
Speaker 1: a curse for Travis Kelton. Yeah, I completely completely get that.
Speaker 1: In this Washington game, Adrian Peterson continues to just dominating
Speaker 1: and twenty four carries for ninety nine yards. He looked good,
Speaker 1: he finished, He was just shy of a touchdown at
Speaker 1: one point in this game. As I mentioned, he looked good.
Speaker 1: He does and he's he's crazy because he dies battling
Speaker 1: like every single Intermsok, he's beat up in a major way.
Speaker 1: He's still have four point one yards for carrying this
Speaker 1: game and he had twenty five touches. So, I mean,
Speaker 1: once we knew that Chris Thompson was out, you bump
Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson up a little bit. But how long is
Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson gonna be able to touch the ball twenty
Speaker 1: times a game? Right. I mean the guy is basically
Speaker 1: held together by duct tape right now, I get it.
Speaker 1: And he concerned about Zeke only fifteen or thirty three yesterday.
Speaker 1: Kind of a weird season for Zeke, right, Like he
Speaker 1: has not he weird, not delivered what we were expecting
Speaker 1: out of him. Like, yeah, I'm sure you know Corey's
Speaker 1: gonna talk about this too. I mean, what he's done
Speaker 1: against the Jaguars monster game, the week before that against
Speaker 1: the Texans twenty for fifty four. Pass team usage has
Speaker 1: been a little bit inconsistent. You know, I think he's
Speaker 1: a guy who should actually be getting five to six
Speaker 1: receptions a game just based on this defense. Like I
Speaker 1: think anyone else who could make plays, sneak out in
Speaker 1: space and let him see what a Scott lind A
Speaker 1: hand not doing a good job. I mean, that's we've
Speaker 1: heard that all year long, as Brian was tweeting about
Speaker 1: in the off season, three more games to quickly mentioned
Speaker 1: before we get out of here, exactly where I was
Speaker 1: going Marlon Maxe yards rush touchdown r MAC though now
Speaker 1: because we're getting like I had a question today, someone said,
Speaker 1: before we get the m R I results back from
Speaker 1: Sony Michelle. Should I trade Michelle from Marlon mac no,
Speaker 1: which you don't want to do that. It could be
Speaker 1: be just him taking advantage of the match up against
Speaker 1: the Buffalo Bills. But Marlan Maxy Michelle is out for
Speaker 1: the next four weeks. Marlon Chubb, I'll take Chubb. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I just think you know, I actually trust the Brown's
Speaker 1: ability to run the football more so than I do
Speaker 1: the Colts. Even Marlon matt coming off this monster game.
Speaker 1: Chris Ivory uh was starting starting this game of the show,
Speaker 1: McCoy leaving very very early with a concussion, right sixteen
Speaker 1: for eighty one for Chris Ivory. Bills have neverybody able
Speaker 1: to move the ball. But average your backup is your startop. Yes,
Speaker 1: and we've seen in games where McCoy can't go, gets
Speaker 1: a lot of usage. Um that is Chris Ivory. So look,
Speaker 1: but all these teams on By, it seems like every
Speaker 1: single week we're gonna have four or more teams on By.
Speaker 1: You're gonna look at anyone who's getting work out. Patrick
Speaker 1: Mahomes was awesome yesterday, and I mentioned the Ravens tonight.
Speaker 1: The Falcons three and a half way favorite. Right now,
Speaker 1: give me the Falcons, Andy over Greg Absolutely Franky Stamville.
Speaker 1: I'm Greg Sausman, the Friend. He's up next. We'll do
Speaker 1: it all again tomorrow, we hope.
