13
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 1: What's going on is we're we're bringing home the hardware.

14
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 1: That's what's going on. Baby. Lets let's do it. I'm

15
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:08,760
Speaker 1: I'm I'm. I'm feeling pretty good about how we've got

16
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,679
Speaker 1: this thing. I'll figured out laid out for everybody. We're

17
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,759
Speaker 1: going to continue to bring you the take a Chance

18
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 1: of Me players, because even now in week number in

19
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,400
Speaker 1: week number sixteen, in the championship game, you may have

20
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:23,479
Speaker 1: there may be guys on the waiver wire. Well, there

21
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 1: are there are guys on the waiver wire who are

22
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 1: going to outscore some of your starters. Helping you figure

23
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:29,840
Speaker 1: that out, and whether or not you want to make

24
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: a move is still valid even in the championship game.

25
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 1: I think there's no there may be no bigger mistake

26
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 1: than you can make than just saying I'm going with

27
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: the guys who got me here. Now the guys a

28
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 1: guy you aren't necessarily gonna have a great game in

29
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 1: Week sixteen. It's easier to live with yourself though in

30
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 1: the off season if you benched, if you didn't bench

31
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,080
Speaker 1: your stud and losing bench your stud, and you would

32
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 1: have wanted for you, I care more. I care more

33
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 1: about bringing home the hardware. I'm saying that. I mean

34
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 1: Tom Brady is gonna be a tricky example of that.

35
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: I will break down all the match ups. We've got

36
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 1: the five Tough Questions lightning around at the end of

37
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: the show as well. Let's let's roll right into our matchups,

38
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:10,959
Speaker 1: beginning with the Chargers taking on the Jets. Bitterly disappointed

39
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:16,440
Speaker 1: with Philip Rivers performance last week, Scott, but another good

40
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 1: opportunity this time against the Jets. I want to believe

41
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 1: he's gonna go back to being the quarterback he was

42
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 1: in the month prior to last week. He will anomaly.

43
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 1: Rivers has three yards or multiple touchdowns in all but

44
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 1: one game that does since Week nine, and the Jets

45
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 1: have allowed ten quarterbacks to have multiple touchdowns against them.

46
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,600
Speaker 1: I'm actually giving Rivers in a grade. I think he

47
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 1: comes right back to what he was. Because of that,

48
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: I'm giving his main guy Keenan Alan. I know he's

49
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 1: a little little injured with the back, but he's gonna

50
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 1: go and he he should be fine. Giving him a

51
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:52,360
Speaker 1: top four receivers. The last top receivers against the Jets,

52
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 1: the last four of them had at least ninety yards

53
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 1: and combined for four touchdowns. That'll be Keenan Allen. I

54
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 1: think I'll have no problem getting there, Honestly, Tyrolle Williams,

55
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 1: I had to make my make a little argument for

56
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 1: it with myself because the Jets haven't allowed a second

57
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 1: receiver to top forty yards in the last five weeks.

58
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 1: But he's got eleven targets in the last two weeks

59
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 1: and he's averaging seventeen and a half yards per catch,

60
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,679
Speaker 1: So it only takes one miscoverage and the Jets have

61
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 1: allowed the fifth most receptions over twenty yards about four

62
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,919
Speaker 1: per game, So I think you'll only take one plane

63
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 1: with Hunter Henriotte, he might see a couple of extra targets.

64
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,240
Speaker 1: Also with Henry Out Gates A see, I think this

65
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: might be a touchdown type of thing. San Diego's targeting

66
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 1: their tight end six to seven times a game, and

67
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 1: since Week five, every tight end with at least five

68
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 1: targets has either fifty yards or scored. I think Gates

69
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 1: might be the scored part, even if it's a platoon

70
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 1: from the tight end position. Gordon given an A grade

71
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 1: twenty one touches per game, and now alr is likely

72
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: not gonna play eighty yards and five straight Yeah, scored

73
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 1: in three of those. Jets run defense has been pretty

74
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 1: good over the bulk of the year, but a little

75
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 1: worse lately. Yeah yeah. And I just want to, you know,

76
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 1: take a moment to congradulate Melvin Gordon on finally playing

77
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 1: a week six team game and last week playing a

78
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 1: week fifteen games. About that. So proud of you. You know,

79
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 1: I'm not a Melvin Gordon better owner from the last

80
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 1: couple of years. You finally played a fantasy playoffs, thank you.

81
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 1: All right. On the Jet side, I'm pretty much benching everyone.

82
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 1: I don't trust the Jets with Petty against a top

83
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 1: five Chargers defense Anderson twelve targets last week still only

84
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 1: forty yards a s J. Charges have allowed three tight

85
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 1: end touchdowns this year and that's it. And even if

86
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,599
Speaker 1: a s J catches one, he'll probably he'll probably be overturned.

87
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 1: So what's the point Powell. I'm giving a sneaky C

88
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:40,360
Speaker 1: grade though to fourteen, McGuire looked like they might not play,

89
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,480
Speaker 1: which gives Powell everything. Well, I mean, if they don't go,

90
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 1: Powell start for sure, exactly, and we've been playing this

91
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:50,039
Speaker 1: game time decision game on for an all of them.

92
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 1: If they do play, I I would bench Powell. But

93
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 1: if they don't run stoppers, Corey Legit and Denzel Payman

94
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 1: are out for the Chargers, so there might be a

95
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 1: play there. Sounds good. Let's go to Lions taking on

96
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 1: the Bengals. Brian Bengals have packed it in a way

97
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 1: we rarely see in the NFL the last two weeks.

98
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,479
Speaker 1: I don't know if there's any pride left in this team,

99
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,920
Speaker 1: but either way, I like it. I like almost all

100
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 1: my Lions here. Yeah, they've since he's packed like all

101
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 1: their defensive players on ice too, because they're all half.

102
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 1: So I'm given Matt Stafford to be I've got him

103
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:23,840
Speaker 1: as an a. My number three quarters I was wearing.

104
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 1: Game script isn't gonna favor him too much here because

105
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,160
Speaker 1: I don't know how much the Bengals are gonna have

106
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,039
Speaker 1: to uh or how much the Lins gonna have to throw.

107
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 1: But Mitch to Whisky's total two touchdowns against since a

108
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago managed to not throw an interception,

109
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 1: So that goes to show how bad the Bengals defenses

110
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,120
Speaker 1: if you can't pick off your Whisky. So yeah, I'll

111
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 1: give st I'll go a on Stafford, you'll get their charge.

112
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna Marvin Jones just to be though in a

113
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,159
Speaker 1: revenge game, you know. I like those revenge games. Primary

114
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 1: receivers have topped one yards and North squore to touchdown

115
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 1: in three stree weeks against the Bengals. Gonna give Golden

116
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,160
Speaker 1: Tay to b for that reason too. They're both very

117
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 1: startable against his banged up secondary that I want to

118
00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 1: convince you to make him an a for Jones by

119
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 1: Tate in a because he's running out of the slop position.

120
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:08,080
Speaker 1: Remember just two weeks ago Kendall right ten catches hundred

121
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,719
Speaker 1: ten yards out of the slot against the Bengals. But

122
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,360
Speaker 1: but it's outdoors, charged, he just scared outdoors. He broke

123
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:16,479
Speaker 1: the steed, broke the streak, like two weeks ago. That

124
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:20,279
Speaker 1: was warm weather outdoors. Okay, thank you hey for Tate,

125
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 1: for everyone, Chris, thank you a for Hebron. Then charge's

126
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 1: kidding to see though Ebron has garnered seven more targets

127
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 1: in consecutive weeks um, and he's caught at least four

128
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 1: passes in five straight. The Bengals have allowed two tight

129
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 1: end touchdowns over the last two games. Two weeks ago,

130
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 1: they allowed eight catches to Chicago tight end. So Ebron

131
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 1: could be a decent volume play here. I'm giving him

132
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 1: a CE. Uh Theo Riddick I had as a B,

133
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna go down to a C because both

134
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,599
Speaker 1: tackles are questionable for the Lions. They're starting centers out.

135
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 1: Theoretic himself is questionable. Well, he's good. He should be

136
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 1: good to go with the rist. So i'm as of now,

137
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 1: I'm I'm banking. Then he's gonna play, averaging nearly fourteen

138
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 1: touches over the last three weeks, and I scored three

139
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,039
Speaker 1: touchdowns during that span. Since he has allowed the most

140
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 1: receiving yards and the third most rushing yards running back.

141
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,720
Speaker 1: So Riddick is a strong play if he goes. If

142
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 1: he does not, Tian Green would be relevant and startable.

143
00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 1: But I think Riddick will go. So I got Tiana

144
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 1: Green on the bench over too. Since he a J

145
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 1: not a lot to talk about here, a J. Green,

146
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 1: It's gonna give him a see should see a lot

147
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 1: of Darius Slay, but who knows Slay barely covered Mike

148
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 1: Evans a few weeks ago. It's gonna be all over.

149
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 1: The last time. What comparable wide receiver sligh shadowed was

150
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 1: Stefon Diggs. That was on about sixty seven percent of

151
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 1: Diggs's route sixty seven percent of Diggs's routes. Diggs did

152
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 1: catch four of five targets for fifty nine yards. So

153
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 1: I'm still starting a J. Green, but not a strong start. Obviously.

154
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,600
Speaker 1: Tyler Croft was tempted to give him a starting grade

155
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 1: because Detroit's ranked twenty five against tight ends by Football

156
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 1: Outsiders allowing more than sixty yards per game, but Croft

157
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 1: his top two catches just once over the last six

158
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 1: so he still he's still on the bench. Andy Dalton

159
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:54,000
Speaker 1: on the bench too. Not an awful matchup, but Dalton

160
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 1: has combined for a mere two and fifty four yards

161
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:58,000
Speaker 1: and one touchdown over his last two games, and he's

162
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,600
Speaker 1: completed fewer than fifty percent of his passes. Though not

163
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:04,080
Speaker 1: trusting him in Week sixteen, Joe Mixon can't trust them,

164
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 1: but you can start him. Has practice that full since Wednesday. Uh.

165
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: He looks good to go the lines right twenty s

166
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 1: against the run over the last five weeks, and have

167
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 1: struggled against pass catching back so Mixing is startable. But

168
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 1: that and Mixing is a sneaky good pass catching backman.

169
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 1: He's startable, but he's gonna probably get most of his

170
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 1: work done through the air and UH with the return

171
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 1: of Mixing, gioe Bernard is back on the bench again.

172
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 1: Dolphins take on the Chiefs A grade for Kenyan Drake.

173
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,560
Speaker 1: Damian Williams is technically doubtful. Did practice this week. He

174
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 1: either probably won't go or have a minimal role in

175
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 1: this game. So I think it's gonna be another workhorse

176
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,840
Speaker 1: game for Kenyan Drake, who had twenty two or more

177
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:41,959
Speaker 1: touches in each of the last three games, and that's

178
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 1: allowed him to put over one hundred yards per scrimmage

179
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 1: and our yards from scrimmage and all of them. Chiefs

180
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 1: have allowed at lea seventy rushing yards to opposing running

181
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:51,959
Speaker 1: backs in twelve straight games. They've also a lot of

182
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 1: running back to find the ends on an eight of

183
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:57,400
Speaker 1: the last nine. So everything here says a grade for

184
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 1: Kenyan Drake. I believe he's my number five ranked running

185
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:02,400
Speaker 1: back this week. Let's go to the passing game or

186
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 1: Jay Cutler gets a sea. He's had some good games,

187
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 1: but incredibly inconsistent, as exemplified by his results over the

188
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,079
Speaker 1: last two weeks when Color had an awesome game and

189
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 1: a terrible one. The Chiefs past defense has actually improved

190
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 1: dramatically over the last five games. Only one quarterback has

191
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 1: topped two D twenty seven yards, which is a pretty

192
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 1: low measuring stick, and they're allowing only zero point eight

193
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,200
Speaker 1: passing touchdowns over the last five games. So the Chiefs

194
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,839
Speaker 1: pass defense has gotten better Cutler and consistent. Just to

195
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 1: C grade here, I've got a B grade on Jarvis

196
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 1: Landry is most reliable receiver. And you know the drill

197
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,920
Speaker 1: and Landry lots of receptions, you get middling yards. He's

198
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 1: actually scored some touchdowns this year, although that's always dicey. Again,

199
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:46,960
Speaker 1: Kansas City's secondaries improved, um and they stunned everybody last week.

200
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 1: Keenan Allen's normally a slot receiver, fifty four yards last week.

201
00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:52,839
Speaker 1: That's it. So I've just got to be great. And

202
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,040
Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry a C grade. Ont DeVante Parker coming off

203
00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,200
Speaker 1: his season best game last week with eighty nine yards.

204
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 1: But and I like the fact that he's gonna get

205
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 1: a lot of Darrell Rivas in this one. Rivas is

206
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 1: obviously not great, signed off the couch three weeks ago,

207
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:08,719
Speaker 1: so Parker could do something here. But note that he

208
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,040
Speaker 1: missed two days of practice with an ankle injury, but

209
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 1: is expected to play Kenny Stills on the bench. Over

210
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 1: the last two weeks, He's had eighteen yards and eight

211
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 1: yards in the two games. Let's flip over to the

212
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 1: chief side as usual. Travis Kelsey is an obvious eight grade.

213
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,200
Speaker 1: He goes up against the Dolphins defense that's allowed the

214
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:31,280
Speaker 1: third most touchdowns and seventh most yards to tight ends. UH.

215
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 1: Staying with the passing game, Alex Smith is a C.

216
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 1: He's got. He's yet to throw multiple touchdowns and back

217
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,240
Speaker 1: to back games. He's been north of two seventy yards

218
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 1: just once in the past seventy games, sorry, seven games,

219
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,960
Speaker 1: seventy a long time. He's also thrown double the number

220
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:47,960
Speaker 1: of touchdowns on the road then he has at home,

221
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 1: and this is a home game. Miame has allowed just

222
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 1: two three yard passers and none since week number nine,

223
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 1: so I'm pretty lukewarm on Smith. He's just the se

224
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 1: that leaves the passing game. Only other guy to mention

225
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,079
Speaker 1: the passing games Tyreek Hill Dolphins, having allowed one yard

226
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 1: receivers since the opener in Week one, but the three

227
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 1: of the four wideouts who have reached the end zone

228
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,800
Speaker 1: against Miami have been speed guys. Since Week nine, We've

229
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 1: been speed guys. That's Johnny Holton, DeShawn Jackson, Brandon Cooks,

230
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,719
Speaker 1: all speed guys. Tyreek Hill obviously total speed guy. UH.

231
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:20,960
Speaker 1: He's scored three touchdowns the last three weeks. He gets

232
00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: a B grade. And the last guy to mentioned Kareem Hunt.

233
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 1: Since Matt Naggy took over play calling duties firm Andy Reid.

234
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 1: Hunt has been fantastic. He snapped his two months scoring drought.

235
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,960
Speaker 1: He's averaged two touches per game, one under thirty six

236
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,320
Speaker 1: yards from scrimmage, one touchdown per game. In the past

237
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 1: four games, the Dolphins have allowed three backs stroll up

238
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:41,439
Speaker 1: ninety six or more yards from scrimmage and they've given

239
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 1: up six touchdowns to the position in those four games.

240
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 1: So I love Kareem Hunt this week. He's gonna book

241
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,840
Speaker 1: end your season nicely with great play at the beginning

242
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,559
Speaker 1: and the end of the season. He is an a

243
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 1: let's take a break, actually a little bit early. I

244
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,760
Speaker 1: like that list. We could sneak in Rams Titans. Now,

245
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 1: let's let's just take a break. We'll take a break

246
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 1: when you come back. Take a chance on me. Nine

247
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:07,160
Speaker 1: players not normally and you're starting line. It will tell

248
00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 1: you who they are when we come back. Victory on

249
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: Sunday's comes from listening to these guys on Saturday. This

250
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 1: is Fantasy Football Weekly on the fan, and it's got

251
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 1: kind of a Christmas field to it a little bit, right.

252
00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 1: That was my thought when I chose this one. Nicely done, Ryan,

253
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 1: who basically lives here at this point, you've done with

254
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 1: all the vacation, and everybody's burning in these in December,

255
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:41,320
Speaker 1: I don't know where. I don't where the stage will

256
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 1: be without you. Honestly, I appreciate that I'm getting out

257
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 1: of here in Miami right after Brian's leaving for New York.

258
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 1: Here we go. Ye take a chance. I mean nine players,

259
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,640
Speaker 1: not normally, and you're starting lineups. Some of these guys,

260
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:56,120
Speaker 1: I'm telling you are going to have good games this week,

261
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 1: and you need to be you need to be considering it.

262
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,079
Speaker 1: I know it sounds crazy, and a championship week, I'm

263
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 1: gonna be starting one of my guys that championship game

264
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 1: and one of my leagues and all great guys to

265
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:08,959
Speaker 1: try on fanball dot com too. Well that that is

266
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 1: so cheap on all these guys, it rights itself. Really

267
00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 1: you could, you could, You could really pin a whole

268
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 1: team on these cheap players. Let's be ended quarterback position, Scott.

269
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,960
Speaker 1: I am going with Eli Manning against Arizona. Arizona has

270
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 1: allowed multiple touchdowns to five of the list last six

271
00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,440
Speaker 1: quarterbacks they faced, but mostly Manning is throwing the ball

272
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,040
Speaker 1: over fifty times a game since his return, kind of

273
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:34,400
Speaker 1: in fu mode. It really Yeah, as long as Davis

274
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:37,440
Speaker 1: Webb doesn't come in, I like manning to continue that

275
00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:41,959
Speaker 1: against Arizona. Alright, alright, charge que your sad trombone for

276
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 1: Mitch Drubisky at home versus the Browns sound effects. I

277
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 1: don't know what a happy trombone sounds like, but we're

278
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 1: gonna hear one on Sunday against ranked past defense by

279
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 1: Football Outsiders. Joe Flacco even through for a season high

280
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:01,000
Speaker 1: yards against the Browns last week. Cleveland has also still

281
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 1: ranked first against the run, so the path of least

282
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:06,199
Speaker 1: resistance against the Browns is through the air, and Shrubisky

283
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,439
Speaker 1: has been somewhat competent the last two games, ring for

284
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 1: two d seventy fourteen yards and he's completed fifty six

285
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:19,000
Speaker 1: of seven eight passes during those two games. That's about that.

286
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco goes up against Indianapolis, and the Baltimore passing

287
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 1: game has shown signs of life over the last three weeks,

288
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 1: with Flacco passing for more than two hundred sixty nine

289
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 1: yards in in each of those three games. He scored

290
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:35,840
Speaker 1: twice in each of those three games. That trend should

291
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 1: continue against an injury ravaged Indie secondary allowing the fifth

292
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 1: most passing yards and multiple touchdowns this year to guys

293
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 1: like Brick Gosswidler and Blake Bortles and Brian Hoyer and

294
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,960
Speaker 1: Deshaun Kaiser Joe Flacco. You take a chance at me

295
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:57,120
Speaker 1: quarterback this week? That is scary, isn't It's my number fourteen,

296
00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 1: my number fourteen quarterback. And this is what I'm talking about.

297
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 1: He's the kind of guy you could have in your

298
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:05,800
Speaker 1: lineup over a Matt Ryan who got you here maybe

299
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 1: and Alex Smith who might have gotten you here, right yeah,

300
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 1: or at Derek Carr who might have gotten here, or

301
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins who might have gotten you here. Oh yeah, right,

302
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 1: all right, let's go to the running back position. You

303
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 1: know mine got better over the course of the week.

304
00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:21,440
Speaker 1: I early in the week, I pegged out Capri Bibbs

305
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,480
Speaker 1: versus Denver UH. He kind of took over the Chris

306
00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 1: Thompson role. Last week four receiving targets caught him all

307
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 1: for forty seven yards in a touchdown. Jay Grudden praised

308
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:33,920
Speaker 1: him to Cabri Bibbs revenge game against Denver UH and

309
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 1: now uh Soma Peron came up with a groin injury

310
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 1: on Thursday, and now is unlikely to play, so Bibbs

311
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 1: might even get the start. So I think he is

312
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,520
Speaker 1: going to get the start, and their third string runner

313
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 1: whose name I've forgotten, is out, and so if he

314
00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:53,080
Speaker 1: Ryan doesn't go, Bibbs gets one of the running back

315
00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:56,040
Speaker 1: work and they put lish On Daniels on the gun.

316
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 1: Daniels Bronco's most receiving touchdowns allowed to running backs. To

317
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 1: about that, I like Capri Bibs quite a bit, all right, Brian, Alright,

318
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 1: I got my first of two double downs UM using

319
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:09,200
Speaker 1: Duke Johnson like it did last week. He's had the

320
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 1: Bears this week opposing running backs versus the Bears week recently. Uh.

321
00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 1: Six catches for Detroit backs, seven for Bengals backs, seven

322
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:18,800
Speaker 1: for forty Niners backs. So I'll take Duke here, just

323
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 1: like I did last week when he rolled up sixty

324
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 1: plus yards in a combo or in a touchdown. UH.

325
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 1: Duke is also one of ten running backs with twenty

326
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 1: plus targets over the last four weeks, and he's one

327
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 1: of five running backs with four red zone targets during

328
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:32,760
Speaker 1: that span. And during that same four week span, the

329
00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:35,440
Speaker 1: Bears have yielded the most red zone targets to running backs.

330
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 1: So the Stars have a lined for another good Duke

331
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:39,560
Speaker 1: Johnson game. I think it. I think they have. How

332
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 1: about this statu on Duke Johnson. I ran into first player,

333
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 1: first NFL running back in thirty years to start a

334
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:53,000
Speaker 1: career with three straight five hundred yard receiving seasons. Very nice,

335
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 1: and you I won't even ask you to hazard to

336
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:59,120
Speaker 1: guess who the previous guy was. Herschell Walker was the

337
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:01,960
Speaker 1: last one to do that. Might take a chance to

338
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:06,159
Speaker 1: be running back A player I loved in the preseason,

339
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 1: and I looked brilliant for two whole weeks. Mike GILLISLEI yeah,

340
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:15,720
Speaker 1: Mike Gillisle, one my favorite preseason touts here on the show,

341
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,560
Speaker 1: And for two weeks when he had four touchdowns, I

342
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:27,080
Speaker 1: was I was this guy. And then for the next

343
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 1: like fourteen weeks, I was this guy. But now we're back.

344
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:37,359
Speaker 1: Rex burke Head is out, so gillis Lee should be

345
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:41,080
Speaker 1: active for this game, and everything lines up for potentially

346
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,880
Speaker 1: a big one playing against his old His old team

347
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:47,280
Speaker 1: a buffalo of defense giving up over one rushing yards

348
00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 1: per game, and New England's backs put up one yards

349
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 1: on the ground against Buffalo just three weeks ago. Guilty

350
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 1: should get the goal line carries over Dion Lewis, and

351
00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:00,200
Speaker 1: he should put up big numbers against the deep vents

352
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:04,320
Speaker 1: that's allowed the most rushing touchdowns to running backs. Mike

353
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,640
Speaker 1: gillis Lee, he gave you three touchdowns in Week one.

354
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,920
Speaker 1: He's gonna book in your fantasy season with another three

355
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:16,879
Speaker 1: touchdowns and week number sixteen, Championship week, gillessly just go

356
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 1: to the wide receiver position. Uh Well, Minth's tight end

357
00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:25,080
Speaker 1: Jesse James versus Houston Texans at bottom five against tight ends.

358
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 1: In the last five weeks. They have allowed the sixth

359
00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 1: most yards and the most touchdowns to tight ends four

360
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:35,160
Speaker 1: tight end touchdowns over that span. They've also had six

361
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,720
Speaker 1: tight ends top fifty yards. James with Brown out, James

362
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,320
Speaker 1: has seen seventeen targets in the last two weeks. Brown

363
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:43,679
Speaker 1: Brown's out this week. Ben trust him. I think he's

364
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 1: a sneaky play alright, alright. I got Ben Watson, who

365
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 1: was my premature speculation a few weeks ago, and that's

366
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:51,719
Speaker 1: because I used him as might take a chance when

367
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:53,520
Speaker 1: my player last week and a great matchup, and he's

368
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 1: got another great matchup this week at home against Indie.

369
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:58,160
Speaker 1: The Coals are not good against tight ends. The ranks

370
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 1: twenty ninth against by Football Outsider. Is India allowdy touchdown

371
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 1: to Jeff here him in last week and then turning

372
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 1: out the hot game in Buffalo the week before that

373
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,639
Speaker 1: he allowed five catches. The Coals allowed five catches seventy

374
00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:11,879
Speaker 1: five yards to Jacksonville tight ends the game before that.

375
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 1: Delaney Walker had four for sixty three in the touch

376
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 1: fans McDonald scored the week before that, So I am

377
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 1: predicting another touchdown for Ben Watson this week. Demere Bird

378
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,199
Speaker 1: is Kelvin, Benjamin's replacement at wide receiver in Carolina, and

379
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:26,920
Speaker 1: he scored twice last week, so really this I should

380
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 1: have been talking about him last week. Sorry about that,

381
00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:32,000
Speaker 1: but this week's matchup is even more favorable. The Bucks

382
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,359
Speaker 1: have allowed the most yards to wide receivers by a

383
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 1: mile and the third most touchdowns, and more recently, over

384
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 1: the last five weeks, they've allowed fifty or more yards

385
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,639
Speaker 1: or touchdown to eight different wide receivers. Again in just

386
00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:46,439
Speaker 1: the last five weeks. Devin Funchess has got this nagging

387
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:48,760
Speaker 1: shoulder injury, so you figure Bird gets a few more

388
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 1: looks in this game, demere bird. Yeah it's a week late,

389
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 1: but that doesn't mean won't score this week too. But

390
00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 1: what's his nickname but drag swagger. But yeah he's a Buchecker.

391
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 1: Last but cheek swag. There you go, drag swag. All right,

392
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 1: let's go back to our matchups. Rams taking on the

393
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:11,640
Speaker 1: I think it's Rams tight. Yes, Rams taking on the

394
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:14,800
Speaker 1: Titans in this game. Todd Gurley obviously bonkers last week,

395
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:18,800
Speaker 1: much tougher matchup this week. Yep, I don't care. Todd

396
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:21,679
Speaker 1: Gurley A grade averaging a hundred thirty total yards per

397
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:24,720
Speaker 1: game over touches per game, A grade I don't even

398
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 1: have to go into it. Just Jared Goff. I'm also

399
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,200
Speaker 1: giving an. I'm giving this offense a lot of good grades.

400
00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:32,960
Speaker 1: Multiple touchdowns in seven of his last eight games, and

401
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,480
Speaker 1: over the last five weeks, only the Ravens have allowed

402
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:37,879
Speaker 1: more passing yards than the Titans, and that was because

403
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,479
Speaker 1: of five d of Ben Garoppolo and Savage each had

404
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:44,240
Speaker 1: three sixty plus each. So a grade for Golf. I'm

405
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,760
Speaker 1: giving an a grade for his man. Would's woods picked

406
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 1: up right where he left off, lad the team in

407
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 1: targets receptions, yards and touchdowns last week. That's what he

408
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,600
Speaker 1: was doing before b grade for Watkins, he scored in

409
00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 1: five of his last seven. You know, a little bit

410
00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:00,480
Speaker 1: of a dud last week, but I think it has

411
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:04,280
Speaker 1: the Dudwin Woods comes back. Yeah yeah, I know, but

412
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,320
Speaker 1: he did start that touchdown street Wild Woods was still

413
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 1: in so uh and the Titans head aloud over the

414
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:14,920
Speaker 1: first ten weeks. Uh, the most wide receiver touchdowns last four.

415
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:16,960
Speaker 1: I think you know, they've been better, but it's been

416
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 1: a lot of matchups. Although, wait a minute, because Woods

417
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:22,200
Speaker 1: played the Vikings in the game when when Woods and

418
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 1: Watkins played when Woods got hurt, it was the Vikings game,

419
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:29,440
Speaker 1: and Watkins scored after Woods left that game. It's still

420
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 1: I'm still a little more skeptical. Let me mention this

421
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:35,720
Speaker 1: Titan secondary just put their number three cornerback LaShaun Woods

422
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 1: and I are and then this week there's other their

423
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,200
Speaker 1: number one quarterback by a mile, Logan Ryan missed the

424
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:43,480
Speaker 1: whole week of practice, not expected to play. Yep, this

425
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 1: could be a big passing game for Jared Gopp and

426
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 1: his receivers, and maybe Gurley gets the shocking dud in this. Obviously,

427
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:55,119
Speaker 1: you have to start him. In no way am I

428
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:59,320
Speaker 1: recommending you you bench Todd Gurley. But nevertheless, this could

429
00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:03,280
Speaker 1: be one that surprises his owners unfavorably. We'll see, I

430
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,439
Speaker 1: was gonna get Watkins and couple of Seas, but I

431
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 1: did move Watkins up to a B just on the

432
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 1: chance for a touchdown there. He's been scoring a lot,

433
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 1: but I did give cup of sea and I was

434
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 1: going to mention Logan, but that's perfect, that's perfect. Let's

435
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,959
Speaker 1: go over to the Titan side. Mariota A see only

436
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz has had most multiple touchdowns in the past

437
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:26,120
Speaker 1: six weeks against the Rams, but Mariot has got five

438
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:30,560
Speaker 1: rushing touchdowns. I can see Mariota having to pass to

439
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:34,400
Speaker 1: keep up with the Rams. So any other good week

440
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,680
Speaker 1: last week, So I'm giving him a C grade, given

441
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 1: his top guy, Matthews, a B grade. Matthews has scored

442
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,119
Speaker 1: and gone over seventy yards and three of his last

443
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:46,160
Speaker 1: five and top targets against the Rams have ninety five

444
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:49,880
Speaker 1: yards or more in four last five games. Decker Davis

445
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:53,040
Speaker 1: Benching Decker last week had sixty three yards. That was

446
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 1: his best game. Davis hasn't top fifty yards since Week one.

447
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 1: Rams or top ten against wide receivers. But Delaney Walker

448
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 1: I'm given an A grade five catches in seven of

449
00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 1: his last eight games touchdowns and three of his last four.

450
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,000
Speaker 1: Rams defense has given up four tight end touchdowns in

451
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:11,200
Speaker 1: the last two weeks. A grade. Onto the running game,

452
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:14,280
Speaker 1: Henry and Murray on both giving sees. I feel like

453
00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 1: I do this every week, but the Rams are fourth

454
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 1: worst against running backs. It's a decent matchup. They're allowing

455
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:21,919
Speaker 1: the second most yards per carry. I like both of

456
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 1: these guys, but I like Henry a little more because

457
00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 1: at home, Henry's averaging five and a half yards per carry.

458
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,240
Speaker 1: Both his hundred yard games came at home. He's averaging

459
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:34,080
Speaker 1: three more touches per game at home. Uh. Murray a

460
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,439
Speaker 1: lot less yards per Cary, but the Rams are allowing

461
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 1: over fifty yards receiving per game to running backs of

462
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,080
Speaker 1: the last month, so I think they're both startable. But

463
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:45,200
Speaker 1: C grades Brian Browns take on the Bears. He already

464
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:47,560
Speaker 1: told us about Duke Johnson on the Cleveland side. I

465
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:49,639
Speaker 1: think a lot of people wondering much more about the

466
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,680
Speaker 1: passing game for the Browns, and especially Josh Gordon. I

467
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,360
Speaker 1: wish I could attribute who tweeted this, but someone said

468
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:57,440
Speaker 1: this game should be flexed to prime time and the

469
00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:02,159
Speaker 1: loser has to hire Jeff Fishers. I love it, like

470
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:04,720
Speaker 1: maybe hang Jeff fish fish cage above the field the

471
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:07,520
Speaker 1: whole time, it's like dangling about can the NFL get

472
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:10,359
Speaker 1: a restraining order against letting Jeff Fisher coach? I saw

473
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:12,879
Speaker 1: that too, I would hope so. But anyway, onto the

474
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:16,359
Speaker 1: game for the Browns. You mean you mean future Giants

475
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 1: head coach? What you're talking about? I will defect? Where

476
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 1: was the hell this Browns? You're talking like making my

477
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,159
Speaker 1: skin crawl right now? Okay? Josh Gordon give him a

478
00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:30,679
Speaker 1: b averaging nine targets since his reinstatement. The problem is

479
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,960
Speaker 1: the shown kaiser has been dispensing those targets. But still

480
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:36,560
Speaker 1: gotta give Gordon a starting grade here. Number one's have

481
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,240
Speaker 1: done well against the Bears recently. Marvin Jones had eighty

482
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 1: five yards a j Green a modest five for sixty

483
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:45,960
Speaker 1: four Marquees to the Castle Goodwin eight nine, Alshon Jeffrey

484
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,520
Speaker 1: fifty two and a touchdown. So Gordon has a somewhat

485
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:50,880
Speaker 1: safe floor in this matchup. I think no one else

486
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,200
Speaker 1: for the Browns in the passing game, though, I'm off

487
00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:55,919
Speaker 1: Corey Coleman and Joeku Kaiser all on the bench. I

488
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,800
Speaker 1: will give Isaiah Crowe l as see amazingly the most

489
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 1: rushing yards that Bears have a out for to La

490
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,720
Speaker 1: Garrett Blunt of all people in scott And I know

491
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 1: that La Garrett Blunt is the worst running back to

492
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:09,439
Speaker 1: the NFL, but crow L, I don't know. He reels

493
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:11,719
Speaker 1: off big games at random times. I'm just gonna give

494
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:13,520
Speaker 1: him a see here. Bears having a lot of rushing

495
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:15,840
Speaker 1: touchdowns since Week ten. Duke Johnsons might take a chance

496
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,119
Speaker 1: to be running back. I love his prospects through the

497
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 1: air going over the Bears. Jordan Howard just to see

498
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 1: the old lines. A little banged up for Chicago. Tom

499
00:25:24,119 --> 00:25:27,440
Speaker 1: Compton uh questionable, Josh Sitting doubtful. So I'm just giving

500
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:29,320
Speaker 1: him a see here. Cleveland his ranks number one against

501
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,240
Speaker 1: the run. Howard what the bed last week? He could

502
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,280
Speaker 1: do it again this week. I would explore other options

503
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 1: if you have them, but h he is startable. I

504
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:37,320
Speaker 1: got treat coming on the bench. I was tempted to

505
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:39,400
Speaker 1: give him to see. Cleveland has allowed the third most

506
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:41,320
Speaker 1: catches running backs over the last four weeks, but I

507
00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 1: just can't do it in Week sixteen. Sorry, Trek, you're

508
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:45,640
Speaker 1: on the bench. I do got a cee for kendall

509
00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:47,879
Speaker 1: Right though. Over the last two weeks, kendall Right has

510
00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:50,800
Speaker 1: the third most receptions among wide receivers and Cleveland has

511
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 1: allowed these second most catches to wide receivers during that span,

512
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 1: So right is a very solid PPR play this week.

513
00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:59,240
Speaker 1: Adam Sheheen would be a great play if he goes

514
00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:01,679
Speaker 1: with that chest and jury. Cleveland is just awful against

515
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:04,600
Speaker 1: tight ends, in which Sheen has seen seen at least

516
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 1: war targets twice this year. He's top forty yards and

517
00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:08,920
Speaker 1: scored in both of them. So if he goes, I

518
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:10,879
Speaker 1: like him a lot, uh, I don't like him enough

519
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 1: to give him a sea. And then Mitch Rubisky might

520
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:15,159
Speaker 1: take a chance on the quarterback, so hey, that is

521
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,119
Speaker 1: a nice stack to cheap. I'm fans all right there

522
00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:21,080
Speaker 1: with all those Bears against these Browns. Vikings take on

523
00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:23,000
Speaker 1: the Packers. This is a Saturday night game, as you

524
00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 1: all know, that's tonight, but don't don't wait until kickoff

525
00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:28,880
Speaker 1: to set your line up because there's an earlier Saturday game,

526
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:31,479
Speaker 1: and especially in our local listening audience here, I think

527
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 1: you're you know, when the Viking game is, don't forget

528
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,040
Speaker 1: there's another one before that. Just sent your lineups now

529
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,720
Speaker 1: so you don't have to sweat this game. Time temperatures

530
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 1: have improved, the expectation has improved quite a bit by

531
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:45,720
Speaker 1: almost you know, seven eight degrees, and I think that

532
00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:49,320
Speaker 1: makes a difference. Here. Your kickoff temperatures twelve degrees and

533
00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 1: the coldest it should get is around ten degrees. That's

534
00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:55,040
Speaker 1: not that bad. There's no wind at all, so I

535
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:56,720
Speaker 1: don't think whether it's gonna be a factor for this game.

536
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:58,120
Speaker 1: And I know some people were a little bit worried

537
00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:02,439
Speaker 1: about that. M alright, so let's dive into our vikings.

538
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 1: We begin with the running game. Latavious Murray could be

539
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 1: sitting on a really nice game here. It'll be a cold,

540
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:11,679
Speaker 1: frozen lambou track and straight ahead runners like Murray, you're

541
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 1: better suited for that kind of surface than McKinnon is.

542
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 1: Packers have been torched by running backs for one hundred

543
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 1: ninety yards per game over the last four weeks. That's

544
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 1: a staggering amount of rushing yardage. Murray will continue to

545
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:27,399
Speaker 1: get the goal line work as well. He hasn't a

546
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,639
Speaker 1: grade in this game. But even McKinnon, who I just

547
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,200
Speaker 1: said is I don't like the surface as much, but

548
00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 1: I like McKinnon here too. If the hundred niney yards

549
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 1: to go around, McMurray's not gonna get all of it.

550
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:38,760
Speaker 1: And the Packers have had a lot of trouble with

551
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:42,200
Speaker 1: utility backs this season, including the last two weeks in

552
00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 1: which Duke Johnson scored Christian McCaffrey scored in the last

553
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 1: two games against the Packers. When McKinnon saw the Packers

554
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:53,200
Speaker 1: earlier this year, he ran for six yards in a touchdown.

555
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:55,520
Speaker 1: He caught five passes and scored a touchdown through the

556
00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,639
Speaker 1: air as well. Be grade for McKinnon. Let's go to

557
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 1: the passing game case Key him has earned a B

558
00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,160
Speaker 1: grade for this one. Although he's never played a game

559
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,119
Speaker 1: an NFL game. You never play any game in his

560
00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:10,359
Speaker 1: life in freezing temperatures, ever, which is interesting. In the

561
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,439
Speaker 1: last four games, the crumbling Packers secondary has been hit

562
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:17,040
Speaker 1: for thirteen touchdowns in those four games, including three by

563
00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:21,680
Speaker 1: Deshaun Kaiser Keenam through fore yards and one touchdown in

564
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 1: the first meeting of the season. But he should be

565
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 1: easily north of both of those numbers now because the

566
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,760
Speaker 1: Packers defense is much more vulnerable now than it was then,

567
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:31,680
Speaker 1: and Kingdom has improved a lot, multiple touchdowns in seven

568
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,920
Speaker 1: of his last eight games. If I like Keenum, that

569
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:38,040
Speaker 1: means like his receivers Adam Theland A grade here. Injuries

570
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,560
Speaker 1: of forced the Packers to slide safety Morgan Burnett into

571
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:42,440
Speaker 1: the slot, and and they were getting lit up by

572
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,160
Speaker 1: slot receivers anyway. And then there's stealings numbers against the

573
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:48,680
Speaker 1: Packers the last two meetings with the Packers twenty one

574
00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:53,000
Speaker 1: receptions for three hundred yards and two touchdowns. A grade

575
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:57,760
Speaker 1: for thelan I've got a B grade on Stefon Digs

576
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 1: for similar reasons. Digs finally scored a touchdown last week.

577
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:03,520
Speaker 1: Devon House could play in this one, and I might

578
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:05,480
Speaker 1: like him a little bit less because of that, but

579
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 1: still an excellent opportunity for Stefan Digs with a B grade.

580
00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 1: And then Kyle Rudolph Um I've got a B grade

581
00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:13,120
Speaker 1: on him as well, but let's note this, he's got

582
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,160
Speaker 1: the ankle injury. Here's a frozen field. I don't know

583
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:18,200
Speaker 1: if that's an ideal scenario for a guy in a

584
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,120
Speaker 1: bad ankle, still touchdowns in four straight games, so you

585
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,280
Speaker 1: can't really bench him. And in the last three games

586
00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 1: the Packers allowed Cameron brad to score twice. Greg Olsen

587
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 1: to catch nine passes for hundred six yards and a

588
00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:31,000
Speaker 1: touchdown last week, so you kind of have to start him,

589
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:32,680
Speaker 1: and I gotta be great at him so effectively. I

590
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,800
Speaker 1: like every Viking in this game. I don't like any

591
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 1: of the Packers, not one. Everybody's on the bench, but

592
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:41,360
Speaker 1: Jamal Williams. The only thing working in his favor is

593
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:44,200
Speaker 1: cold weather. He's a north south runner again frozen track.

594
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,400
Speaker 1: I like that a little bit better, but everything else

595
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 1: works against him, including his mundane three point six yards

596
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 1: per carry. Vikings run defense ranks third in yards allowed.

597
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,880
Speaker 1: They've only given up touchdowns to four runners all year long,

598
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 1: and they might want to unleash Aaron Jones. It's some

599
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 1: point too, because he was much more dynamic of the

600
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,320
Speaker 1: two runners, and maybe they're going to give him more

601
00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:07,440
Speaker 1: looks in the lost season. At this oh, no, Williams

602
00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:11,160
Speaker 1: is the better running back corn the NFL next Gen stats,

603
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 1: Aaron Aaron Jones is the second most elusive back, only

604
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:18,320
Speaker 1: behind Alvin Kamara. This year, Jones is averaging two yards

605
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:22,240
Speaker 1: per carry more than Williams is too, So you're gonna

606
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 1: have a fight over here. Soft matchups when he's played,

607
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:26,280
Speaker 1: go back and check the teople. All right, we'll do that.

608
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:28,239
Speaker 1: Everybody else is on the bench. And I'm not even

609
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:30,680
Speaker 1: gonna extrapolate a lot on this, but you know, Brett

610
00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 1: Huntley has got all kinds of problems. Cold weather, no

611
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 1: Davante Adams an excellent Vikings secondary. Uh, he's never thrown

612
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:39,760
Speaker 1: a touchdown in lambeau Field. I mean, there's all of

613
00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 1: those things not to like about Huntley. Jordi is gonna

614
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 1: draw Xavier Rhodes, He's dead. Uh, Randall Cobb draws Terrence

615
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:48,480
Speaker 1: and Newman. That's a bad matchup. He's done nothing against

616
00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,959
Speaker 1: Newman over the past four games. And what donna try

617
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 1: Gerona wa Allison against Trey Wayne's there's nothing to like here.

618
00:30:56,320 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 1: We'll take a break. When we come back. Another set

627
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:51,280
Speaker 1: the Buccaneers are taking on the Panthers. Scott Uh, Mike

628
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:53,520
Speaker 1: Evans hit and miss all season long? Do you like

629
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 1: him here now and starting opposite him? Chris Godwin to

630
00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 1: your starter for the Bucks. Talk to me about this

631
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 1: passing game like god and a lot coming out great

632
00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:06,120
Speaker 1: contested catches. Uh, I've Winston with an a seventy plus

633
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,200
Speaker 1: yards and at least two touchdowns in each of the

634
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:11,800
Speaker 1: three games since returning from injury. Carolina was really good

635
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:16,400
Speaker 1: against the past all year past end run but recently, Yeah,

636
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,360
Speaker 1: allowed multiple touchdowns in five of the last six games.

637
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 1: Two quarterbacks, So Winston and A. I'm still giving Evans

638
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:25,120
Speaker 1: and A. Panthers allowing the seventh most yards and the

639
00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 1: second most touchdowns to wide receivers over the last five weeks.

640
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 1: Finally scored again last week, But yeah, I'm giving Evans

641
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 1: and A still. Chris Godwin just mentioned I really like him,

642
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:37,040
Speaker 1: so I am giving him a C grade. He put

643
00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 1: up five catches for sixty eight yards on ten targets

644
00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:42,040
Speaker 1: when Evans was suspended. He's going to get a start

645
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 1: this week too. Uh. Nine wide receivers have a hundred

646
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,720
Speaker 1: yards or a score since Week nine against the Panthers,

647
00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:51,680
Speaker 1: multiple getting involved, So I like Godwin C grade for

648
00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:54,840
Speaker 1: the tight end Cam Cameron Brade. He is a little injured,

649
00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:57,960
Speaker 1: so I have to have to watch that. Panthers have

650
00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 1: been second best against tight ends, but recently me they

651
00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 1: have allowed touchdowns in three the last five games, hundred

652
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:05,760
Speaker 1: and thirty yards in each in the last two weeks total,

653
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:09,360
Speaker 1: and Brake catches four four balls per game with Winston

654
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:12,040
Speaker 1: in every tight end to catch four balls against the

655
00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:15,480
Speaker 1: Panthers since Week one had sixty plus yards receiving. The

656
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 1: running game. Sounds like Martin is going to be back,

657
00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:20,000
Speaker 1: and I don't want any part of that against against

658
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:22,680
Speaker 1: the top five Panthers run defense. I don't know why

659
00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:24,720
Speaker 1: they would have put him back. I know he was

660
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 1: terrible through like just over three yards per car. He

661
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:29,520
Speaker 1: was terrible. Quietly one of the worst draft picks you

662
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:34,240
Speaker 1: possibly could have made this past preseason. He was going

663
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:37,640
Speaker 1: for sure. Uh, Panthers side. I'm giving a Newton in

664
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:40,560
Speaker 1: a Bucks have given up the most third most yards

665
00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 1: to quarterbacks over the last five weeks, and I think

666
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:45,120
Speaker 1: everybody at fan ball has him as their number one quarterback,

667
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:48,560
Speaker 1: including yeah, including new Uh functions. I'm giving a B

668
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 1: and it's because he's still dealing with that shoulder Injurnk.

669
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:54,520
Speaker 1: He's been under sixty yards three straight weeks dealing with that.

670
00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:56,480
Speaker 1: He's gotten in the end zone a couple of times.

671
00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 1: The Bucks are by far the worst. I guess what

672
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,720
Speaker 1: receivers most yards and third most touchdowns, So I'm still

673
00:34:02,800 --> 00:34:05,800
Speaker 1: giving him a B. But I'm concerned demire Bird. Was

674
00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 1: your take a chance on me? I like that. I

675
00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:10,480
Speaker 1: had a good starting grade on him too, Greg Olson,

676
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:12,640
Speaker 1: I'm only giving a B grade to the Bucks are

677
00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:15,080
Speaker 1: top ten versus tight ends. Have it allowed a tight

678
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:19,480
Speaker 1: end touchdown since Week seven? But we're just one removed

679
00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:22,280
Speaker 1: from Eric Ebrown lighting up the Bucks for ten catches

680
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:25,160
Speaker 1: ninety four yards and Olson came back as the security

681
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:28,920
Speaker 1: blanket last week. Funscious, as we said, hurt so Olsen

682
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:34,040
Speaker 1: get to be over the running game. McCaffrey, I'm given

683
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:38,120
Speaker 1: an A grade two sitting on a great game. Yeah,

684
00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:41,359
Speaker 1: the Bucks are sixth worst against running backs. But let's

685
00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:45,120
Speaker 1: let's look at these receiving running backs. Three Cohen, Dalvin Cook,

686
00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:50,040
Speaker 1: James White, Lashawn McCoy, Alvin Kamara, McCaffrey himself, theo Ritic,

687
00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:53,600
Speaker 1: DeVonta Freeman. All of them five plus catches, and six

688
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,120
Speaker 1: of those eight had at least fifty five yards. That's

689
00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:59,960
Speaker 1: not counting Russian yards or touchdowns. That's in PPR, that's double.

690
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:04,239
Speaker 1: That's a point itself. Yeah, just there, so a for McCaffrey.

691
00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,000
Speaker 1: I'm going to give Stewart to see five touchdowns in

692
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:10,520
Speaker 1: his last four games. Um Bucks are six worst against

693
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:14,320
Speaker 1: running backs, second most rushing touchdowns in the NFL, And

694
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:16,359
Speaker 1: if the Panthers get up, they might run it down

695
00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:19,560
Speaker 1: with Stewart, so I'll give him a seat. Falcons take

696
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:22,799
Speaker 1: on the Saints, Brian and these are two pretty good defenses.

697
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:24,880
Speaker 1: But there's so much star power on the field. I

698
00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:26,960
Speaker 1: feel like we're starting most of these guys. Yeah, these

699
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:29,360
Speaker 1: teams just met a few weeks ago in an A fourteen.

700
00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:32,120
Speaker 1: Uh So let's talk Atlanta first, and let's talk Mohammed

701
00:35:32,200 --> 00:35:37,920
Speaker 1: Sanu before heys he should be Nickel corner slash safety

702
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:41,879
Speaker 1: Frankenstein position. Kenny Vakaro was put on I R this week.

703
00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:45,880
Speaker 1: Don't get me wrong, a great player, but the bottom

704
00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:49,800
Speaker 1: the car was the bottom ranked coverage safety in the

705
00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:53,400
Speaker 1: NFL by ProFootball Focus. He's out, so presumably's back up

706
00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:56,400
Speaker 1: p J. Williams. Yeah. Yeah, that opens the door for

707
00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:58,840
Speaker 1: to do uh do better than his six catches for

708
00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:00,560
Speaker 1: eighty three yards in a touch out he had against

709
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:02,640
Speaker 1: New Orleans two weeks ago. So he's an easy top

710
00:36:02,680 --> 00:36:05,640
Speaker 1: time haaded Jones two weeks ago, I got sanoa headed

711
00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:07,960
Speaker 1: Jones this week, I'm with you there, So that's why.

712
00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:10,160
Speaker 1: Lets let's give Julio to be here, likely to be

713
00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:13,200
Speaker 1: shadowed by US sticky corner marsha On Latimore, who did

714
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,480
Speaker 1: cover him seventy two percent at the time. In Week four,

715
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:18,799
Speaker 1: Team Julio did catch three balls for seventy three yards

716
00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:21,600
Speaker 1: in Lattimore's coverage coverage and finished with five catches for

717
00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:24,239
Speaker 1: ninety yards, so he is startable but not a great.

718
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:27,640
Speaker 1: Great matchup for Julio here Austin Hooper Scooper is on

719
00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:31,000
Speaker 1: the bench, where he belongs. Matt Ryan Hump tempted to

720
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,160
Speaker 1: put him on the bench. Struggled mightily in the Week

721
00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:35,799
Speaker 1: four team game that included a span of four games

722
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,680
Speaker 1: where he's total just three touchdowns. Coming off a short week,

723
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:41,000
Speaker 1: looked like he heard his throwing hand on Monday night.

724
00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:43,560
Speaker 1: The Saints are eight against the past, allowing just two

725
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 1: hundred thirty yards and one touchdown per game on average.

726
00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:49,360
Speaker 1: You can bench Matt Ryan if you have better options,

727
00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:51,160
Speaker 1: but I'll give him the sea here, and with the

728
00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:54,319
Speaker 1: return of Tevin Coleman in the running game, I'm giving

729
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:56,640
Speaker 1: Dvante Freeman just to be here. The Saints are allowing

730
00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:58,960
Speaker 1: hundred three five compoy yards per game to running backs,

731
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,400
Speaker 1: but Coleman should to eat in the summer Freeman's production,

732
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:04,040
Speaker 1: so he gets a b Coleman on the bench, can't

733
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:06,759
Speaker 1: trust him. In the Week sixteen, that championship over to

734
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:09,680
Speaker 1: the Saints. Uh As we all remember, Alvin Kamara was

735
00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:12,200
Speaker 1: knocked out early in this game when they met. But

736
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 1: for the for the five plays he was on the field,

737
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 1: he rolled up like forty yards and he was on

738
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:19,080
Speaker 1: his way to what would have been an awesome game,

739
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:20,799
Speaker 1: I think, and he knocked a bunch of people out

740
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:23,200
Speaker 1: of the playoff. Extrapolate those stats and he would have

741
00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:26,839
Speaker 1: like forty PPR points probably, Yeah, Kamara and Ingram will

742
00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 1: not let you down in this game. Uh, they both

743
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 1: get an A as is Michael Thomas crazy to think

744
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:33,680
Speaker 1: this is the only non running back among skill players

745
00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:35,600
Speaker 1: worth talking about for the Saints. It's hasn't been that

746
00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:38,160
Speaker 1: way for years. But uh, three straight games with a

747
00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:41,200
Speaker 1: touchdown for Thomas, which includes the previous matchup between these

748
00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:43,040
Speaker 1: two teams, so he gets the A. But just to

749
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:45,520
Speaker 1: B for Drew Brees, this running game is too strong

750
00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 1: to seventy one and two in the first meeting, which

751
00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:51,160
Speaker 1: is solid numbers, but that's probably that's that feels like, Yeah,

752
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:54,200
Speaker 1: that feels like exactly sitting on just the B for Breeze.

753
00:37:57,040 --> 00:38:00,359
Speaker 1: Next matchup Broncos taking on the Washington Redskin, and we've

754
00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:02,480
Speaker 1: got a handful of players, but not a lot of

755
00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:04,680
Speaker 1: starters in this one, as it should be a defensive

756
00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:07,479
Speaker 1: tussle of sorts. Let's start on the Broncos side where

757
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:10,440
Speaker 1: they haven't made it official yet, but it looks like

758
00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:13,880
Speaker 1: Osswidler is gonna be the guy under helm, but they

759
00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:15,480
Speaker 1: have not told us yet because they're trying to be

760
00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:17,799
Speaker 1: all crafty and not not let anybody know their starting

761
00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:20,239
Speaker 1: quarterback is gonna be like it matters. But C J.

762
00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:23,200
Speaker 1: Anderson gets a B. Washington has allowed one hundred thirty

763
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:25,879
Speaker 1: five yards and nearly one score on the ground per

764
00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:29,200
Speaker 1: game over the last five weeks. Those are terrible numbers,

765
00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:31,680
Speaker 1: in fact, league worst numbers for the rushing yards allowed.

766
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 1: Anderson produced more yards on the ground last week than

767
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:37,279
Speaker 1: his previous four outings combined. If they're gonna work course

768
00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 1: him again for another thirty carries this week? And I

769
00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 1: like C. J. Anderson a lot, so let's try c. J.

770
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:44,759
Speaker 1: Anderson with a B grade. The only other starting grade

771
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:46,759
Speaker 1: is to Marius Thomas, and it's a wobbly one at that.

772
00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:49,120
Speaker 1: He runs half his routes on Josh Norman's side of

773
00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 1: the field. Norman has been giving up his share big

774
00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:55,080
Speaker 1: plays though Still now you're asking brock Oswidler to beat him,

775
00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 1: and I don't think Bro's got brock Osweller is gonna

776
00:38:57,120 --> 00:38:59,880
Speaker 1: break beat Norman too many times here, but a wobbly

777
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:02,360
Speaker 1: see start on da Marius Thomas and everybody else is

778
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:04,840
Speaker 1: on the bench. You know it's an Oswiler led offense,

779
00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:08,840
Speaker 1: and everybody else's is not at all reliable. And Emmanuel

780
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:11,279
Speaker 1: Sanders has got this nagging ankle injury that seems to

781
00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:13,239
Speaker 1: be even worse than it has been for the last month.

782
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:15,480
Speaker 1: Didn't practice all week. There's a good chance he won't

783
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:17,640
Speaker 1: play at all. You can't start him either. Let's go

784
00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:20,680
Speaker 1: to the Washington side. I've only got a couple of

785
00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:23,920
Speaker 1: sea grades to spread around. Capri Bibbs with Scott's take

786
00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:26,160
Speaker 1: a chance on me. Guy and I agree. It's a

787
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:28,560
Speaker 1: C grade right now, and if Parrian gets ruled out,

788
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:30,640
Speaker 1: I'd bump him up to a B grade as well.

789
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:33,880
Speaker 1: Let's go to the passing game. I've got a bench

790
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:36,359
Speaker 1: grade on Kirk Cousins because it's all bad news here.

791
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:39,120
Speaker 1: Let's start here. He's gonna be without his blindside left

792
00:39:39,160 --> 00:39:43,239
Speaker 1: tackle Trent Williams. His recent four game average is two

793
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:46,879
Speaker 1: hundred ten passing yards, which isn't great. Then he faces Denver,

794
00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:49,359
Speaker 1: this is the league's number two past defense at two

795
00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:52,719
Speaker 1: hundred yards per game. And then Cousins top target and

796
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:56,239
Speaker 1: the only reliable receiver he's got, Jamison Crowder. He draws

797
00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 1: Chris Harris, the best coverage slock cornerback in the entire league.

798
00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,840
Speaker 1: Denvers yielded some passing touchdowns, but those are mostly to

799
00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:06,800
Speaker 1: tight ends, and Vernon Davis has been brutal. So I

800
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:08,719
Speaker 1: don't know where Kirk Cousin gets his points, and I'm

801
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:11,880
Speaker 1: very nervous about him. Here. Let's talk about Vernon Davis

802
00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:15,399
Speaker 1: over the last month, and Jordan Read has been out

803
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:18,360
Speaker 1: for a month. He's been the locked starter Vernon Davis.

804
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:24,319
Speaker 1: He's averaging fourteen yards a game. Yet listen to how

805
00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:28,920
Speaker 1: juicy this matchup is. Denver's bottom five in tight end catches,

806
00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:32,920
Speaker 1: tight end targets, tight end receiving yards, and tight end touchdowns.

807
00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:35,880
Speaker 1: So just like the Giants. But what did Davis do

808
00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:38,960
Speaker 1: against the Gant? Nothing? So I gotta I gotta c

809
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:42,640
Speaker 1: grade just because the matchups so favorable for Vernon Davis

810
00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:44,960
Speaker 1: and there's nowhere else for the ball to go, so

811
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:47,320
Speaker 1: I gotta see grade on him. But you know the

812
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:50,920
Speaker 1: risks at this point. Last guy, I'll mention, uh Jamison

813
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:55,080
Speaker 1: Crowder averaging six catches eighty one yards over the last

814
00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:58,600
Speaker 1: seven weeks. But it's a tough matchup for him. Left

815
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:01,160
Speaker 1: and right. He's got a lead, he's got elite cornerback

816
00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:04,760
Speaker 1: coverage all the time, and uh uh, it's slot cornerback

817
00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:06,959
Speaker 1: because I mentioned Chris Harris is awesome. Only two slot

818
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:09,200
Speaker 1: receivers have scored against the Broncos all year, none of

819
00:41:09,280 --> 00:41:12,680
Speaker 1: them in six games. Ted insulted injury to that Washington. Uh.

820
00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:15,600
Speaker 1: I saw Ustad the other day that with Trent Williams out,

821
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 1: the Redskins have not scored over twenty points really going

822
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:21,840
Speaker 1: back like the course of his career. I don't know

823
00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:23,440
Speaker 1: it might have been in this season thing all right,

824
00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:25,640
Speaker 1: just trying to miss a couple of games this season,

825
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:29,320
Speaker 1: but it really does change the offense materially. So basically

826
00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,400
Speaker 1: it's caution on really all the players in all of

827
00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:34,080
Speaker 1: this matchup. I'm gonna try to work in one phone

828
00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:37,520
Speaker 1: call into this, into this segment. I believe on hold

829
00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:45,600
Speaker 1: the longest is I think it's regular caller Ben Hi Bend. Hey, guys,

830
00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:51,120
Speaker 1: I appreciate it Christmas. Thank you Peacock on the Ben

831
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:56,359
Speaker 1: Watson last week. That is that's for you, Brian, Thank

832
00:41:56,400 --> 00:42:00,600
Speaker 1: you Ben. Alright, roll it back this week. This is

833
00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:03,800
Speaker 1: what we got here. I know you guys are anti Packers,

834
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:07,800
Speaker 1: but if the Packers were beat the Vikings, I'm scared

835
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:14,239
Speaker 1: about Nick Foles. And with saying that, I currently have

836
00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:16,840
Speaker 1: a Tolentio Gates in my lineup. This is a touchdown

837
00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:22,439
Speaker 1: heavy no ppr ST. I have Ben Watson named Charles Clay.

838
00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:27,480
Speaker 1: Which of those three would you start? Brian, this is

839
00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:29,840
Speaker 1: right in your whale house. My hands are raised in

840
00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:32,839
Speaker 1: the air right now. Ben, it's it's your your namesake, Ben,

841
00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:38,080
Speaker 1: Ben Watson's our guy. Let's go then, out of Gates

842
00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:42,000
Speaker 1: and Clay, who should I release? Should I stick with

843
00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:47,000
Speaker 1: Folds or should I pick up Bordles? I I would

844
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:49,400
Speaker 1: want Bordles on my roster, just so you can make

845
00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:51,600
Speaker 1: the pivot if you need to. So you've got to

846
00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:54,840
Speaker 1: dump one of them, Um, I would I think I

847
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:58,319
Speaker 1: would dump. I would dump Gates. Yeah, out of the two,

848
00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:01,560
Speaker 1: I'd hold Clay, and in part because and we're gonna

849
00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:04,279
Speaker 1: talk about Clay a little more later, but there's nobody there.

850
00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:06,759
Speaker 1: There's almost nobody else for Tyrod Taylor to throw to

851
00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:09,600
Speaker 1: left in this offense. So he's always been his guy.

852
00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:13,400
Speaker 1: He's been his guy. Yeah, So let's play last thing.

853
00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:16,680
Speaker 1: Would you play Robert Woods or Julio Jones. I've got

854
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:19,279
Speaker 1: him about I've got him about six seven spots higher

855
00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:25,279
Speaker 1: and funches. I've got funchs at wide receiver. I'm looking

856
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:28,680
Speaker 1: at my six wide Robert Woods at wide receiver seven,

857
00:43:29,080 --> 00:43:32,759
Speaker 1: and I've got Julio at wide receiver thirteen. All right, guys,

858
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:36,520
Speaker 1: you you are insane. You're awesome. Thank you, Ben, appreciate

859
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:39,279
Speaker 1: all the loyalty this year. I'll call you next year.

860
00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:42,040
Speaker 1: It's a deal. Bye bye. We'll take a break when

861
00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:46,840
Speaker 1: we come back. Five hot questions for our panel of experts.

862
00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:48,560
Speaker 1: You can play along. Try to go five and oh

863
00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:52,319
Speaker 1: for the last time this year, you're listening to the fan,

864
00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:10,320
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the show, our number two fantasy football

865
00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:13,239
Speaker 1: weekly on the fan. Paul Charchi and Scott Fish, Brian

866
00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:16,320
Speaker 1: Johnson with you. It is time for a bit. We

867
00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:21,720
Speaker 1: like to call five hot Questions Formula five tough questions.

868
00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:29,719
Speaker 1: I got my own bunch over here. That right, It

869
00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:34,720
Speaker 1: really has. It's very impressive. Who is the seventeen Fantasy

870
00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:39,680
Speaker 1: football m v P Scott Todd Gurley, seventeen touchdowns, hunting

871
00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:42,120
Speaker 1: thirty yards per game? Really only the one died where

872
00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:45,359
Speaker 1: he didn't get ninety five total yards. Uh, And he's

873
00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:47,279
Speaker 1: doing it in your fantasy playoffs. If you had him

874
00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:49,920
Speaker 1: in your line up last week, it's completely unlikely that

875
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:54,960
Speaker 1: you lost, Uh, Todd Gurley for me? Yeah, Alvin Kamara

876
00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:57,960
Speaker 1: jumps out Levy on Bell's money in the bank. Carson

877
00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:00,680
Speaker 1: wentz even for a while, even Zech for guys I

878
00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:02,440
Speaker 1: was thinking about. But it is Gurley and the one

879
00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:05,120
Speaker 1: does you mentioned that was against Seattle in week five,

880
00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:09,120
Speaker 1: which is uh, pretty reasonable to throw add against him,

881
00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:11,279
Speaker 1: he's been money in the bank and he was late

882
00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:13,919
Speaker 1: second early third round Valley just a huge return there.

883
00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:17,000
Speaker 1: I asked my friends at my fantasy league, who is

884
00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:21,840
Speaker 1: the most commonly rostered player on championship roster so on

885
00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:25,680
Speaker 1: either either of the team's left playing this week, Todd

886
00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:31,800
Speaker 1: Gurley is in rosters in over half of the championship rosters.

887
00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:39,040
Speaker 1: That's astounding hot question number two. All right, then we

888
00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:41,879
Speaker 1: should be the first pick in fantasy leagues next year.

889
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:46,879
Speaker 1: Brian on November twelve, I tweeted Alvin Kamara one dot

890
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:49,319
Speaker 1: one in eighteen and I wasn't joking. I stand by

891
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:51,799
Speaker 1: that even if Ingram is around, there's a chance Mark

892
00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:54,319
Speaker 1: Ingram is not a saint next year. If he makes

893
00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:57,320
Speaker 1: the All Pro first team, his contract is voided and

894
00:45:57,400 --> 00:46:00,840
Speaker 1: he becomes a free and that is feasible. But Kamara

895
00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:04,600
Speaker 1: if you watch him play, he looks like LT he

896
00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:07,000
Speaker 1: looks like Barry Sanders, he looks in that vein. I

897
00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:09,080
Speaker 1: am all about album Kamara. I don't care for his

898
00:46:09,160 --> 00:46:13,000
Speaker 1: Picnics year. I even think of it. Um, I'm going

899
00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:15,719
Speaker 1: hot take you here, and I'm going DeAndre Hopkins I

900
00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:20,640
Speaker 1: love him with with uh, Watson should be healthy well

901
00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:23,759
Speaker 1: in time for the season. Uh. I think that a

902
00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:28,239
Speaker 1: full season with DeAndre are with Watson, He's gonna be

903
00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:31,160
Speaker 1: unreal next year, just unreal. I believe Watson will be

904
00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:33,400
Speaker 1: my number two wide receiver next year, which means for

905
00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:35,040
Speaker 1: me and the way I draft, that will probably put

906
00:46:35,080 --> 00:46:37,759
Speaker 1: him in the top two or three the Let's first,

907
00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:41,120
Speaker 1: let's start with this regarding Alvin Kamara. Let's not fall

908
00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:43,880
Speaker 1: into the trap of confusing the question, which is who

909
00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:46,000
Speaker 1: should be the first pick in fantasy leagues next year

910
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:48,400
Speaker 1: with who's the most talented running back in the league,

911
00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:51,000
Speaker 1: Because I think Alvin Camara may be the most talented

912
00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:54,080
Speaker 1: running back in the league. But here's the problem. Time

913
00:46:54,239 --> 00:46:58,560
Speaker 1: share runners are never an option at pick number one

914
00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:01,080
Speaker 1: of the first round. Now you may be saying, is

915
00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:03,239
Speaker 1: it going to be a timeshare or not? You gotta

916
00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:04,480
Speaker 1: have a work horse back. By the way, this is

917
00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:07,160
Speaker 1: one of your own takes, Brian from this preseason. You

918
00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:12,440
Speaker 1: pounded the table. Don't take time share backs early all preseason.

919
00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:15,239
Speaker 1: Now look what you're doing. So how can Camara get

920
00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:17,439
Speaker 1: to be a time share There's only one way. Mark

921
00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:20,000
Speaker 1: Ingram has got an outclause in his contract that allows

922
00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:21,960
Speaker 1: him to become a free agent if he gets named

923
00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:26,200
Speaker 1: to the Associated Press All Pro First Team. That's only

924
00:47:26,280 --> 00:47:29,239
Speaker 1: two guys, only two runners get that distinction, and mark

925
00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:30,960
Speaker 1: Ingram is not going to be one of those two guys.

926
00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:33,400
Speaker 1: Todd Gurley and Levy on Bell are going to be

927
00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:35,439
Speaker 1: the obvious selections over him. And if it's not gonna

928
00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:36,719
Speaker 1: be one of those guys, it's gonna be his own

929
00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:39,960
Speaker 1: teammte album Camara. So Ingram is going to remain in

930
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:42,160
Speaker 1: New Orleans. He's going to continue to get roughly and

931
00:47:42,239 --> 00:47:44,360
Speaker 1: even time share with Camara. That takes him out of

932
00:47:44,360 --> 00:47:47,080
Speaker 1: consideration for the first pick overall is at fifty time

933
00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:51,399
Speaker 1: share guy, and that leaves Antonio Brown as the first

934
00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:57,479
Speaker 1: pick next year. Davanny's hot question Number three. Robert Woods

935
00:47:57,520 --> 00:48:00,799
Speaker 1: is approximately wide receiver fifteen an average points per game

936
00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:04,279
Speaker 1: next year? Should he be ranked above or below wide

937
00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:07,640
Speaker 1: receiver number fifteen. Scott, I hate this question. I hate

938
00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:12,160
Speaker 1: it because there's jokes around the office that when I

939
00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:14,960
Speaker 1: got hired it was because I was a Robert Woods

940
00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:17,319
Speaker 1: truther and there were so few of us out there.

941
00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:21,240
Speaker 1: Uh so I really love him. I'm gonna go just below.

942
00:48:21,400 --> 00:48:24,880
Speaker 1: He's not topping O B. J. Hopkins, Brown, Julio Evans,

943
00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:29,720
Speaker 1: Thomas Green Allen's not topping those. There's other guys Landry Cooper, Adams, Cooks,

944
00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:33,360
Speaker 1: Hilton Baldwin, Hill, Feeling, Jeffrey a Rob Judice Smith, Schuster,

945
00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:36,160
Speaker 1: Gordon Funches. He's gonna be in that range, but I

946
00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:38,080
Speaker 1: don't think people are going to be as high on him.

947
00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:40,760
Speaker 1: And also, there's a very long history of top scoring

948
00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:44,239
Speaker 1: NFL teams falling back to Earth, of thirty plus point

949
00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:47,480
Speaker 1: per game teams falling back to Earth. Watkins first there

950
00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:50,160
Speaker 1: year there. I think he improves. I think that Cooper

951
00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:53,120
Speaker 1: Cup rookie season he improves. I don't know that Watkins

952
00:48:53,160 --> 00:48:55,040
Speaker 1: is gonna have the same numbers next year. I'm putting

953
00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:57,960
Speaker 1: him just below fifteen A right for the record, I

954
00:48:58,040 --> 00:48:59,840
Speaker 1: understand Kamar Will being a time share, but he's a

955
00:48:59,880 --> 00:49:02,239
Speaker 1: un of corn. I'm still taking the crystal, but I

956
00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:04,759
Speaker 1: got I got Woods outside of the top fifteen. Um.

957
00:49:04,880 --> 00:49:07,319
Speaker 1: He has missed two to three games uh in every

958
00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:09,640
Speaker 1: season in his career but one that includes this year.

959
00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:12,239
Speaker 1: So the points per game a little misleading and a

960
00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:14,799
Speaker 1: little even more misleading because this year they're propped by

961
00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:16,920
Speaker 1: two monster games. We had two touchdowns and over a

962
00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:19,360
Speaker 1: hundred yards. So he's not inside the top fifteen, but

963
00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:20,920
Speaker 1: he is a wide receiver two for me, inside the

964
00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:23,800
Speaker 1: top twenty four. We are all on the same page.

965
00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:28,800
Speaker 1: He's just under wide receiver number fifteen. Devanny's hot question

966
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:33,680
Speaker 1: number four? Will Carson rank? Carson? Excuse me, let me

967
00:49:33,719 --> 00:49:39,600
Speaker 1: start over Devans? How good? Question number four? Next year,

968
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:43,160
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz will be ranked as a top five quarterback,

969
00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:47,120
Speaker 1: a top ten quarterback or lower than that. Bryan all Right,

970
00:49:47,160 --> 00:49:49,720
Speaker 1: in no particular order of the top five, Aaron Rodgers,

971
00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:54,840
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, Cam Newton, DeShawn Watson. Number five could be Brady,

972
00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:57,600
Speaker 1: could be Breeze, could be Ben, could be Jimmy Garoppolo.

973
00:49:57,800 --> 00:49:59,640
Speaker 1: But no, it's Carson Wentz. He's inside the top five,

974
00:49:59,719 --> 00:50:02,640
Speaker 1: isn't He will be fine come opening day? Okay? See

975
00:50:02,680 --> 00:50:06,200
Speaker 1: that's my concern is that his knee won't be fine

976
00:50:06,239 --> 00:50:09,799
Speaker 1: by opening day or he'll be limited with a knee brace.

977
00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:11,640
Speaker 1: And a lot of his points came up came from

978
00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:13,960
Speaker 1: running the ball. Uh, well, not a lot, but you know,

979
00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:17,000
Speaker 1: a good amount. I'm pretting him just outside the top five,

980
00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:19,280
Speaker 1: but still in the top ten. When Luck and Newton

981
00:50:19,320 --> 00:50:21,320
Speaker 1: we're gonna miss this year, they didn't go past the

982
00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:23,719
Speaker 1: top ten. When Brady missed his four game suspension, he

983
00:50:23,760 --> 00:50:26,239
Speaker 1: didn't go past the top ten. So between five and

984
00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:29,960
Speaker 1: ten he'll be in the top five. I think part

985
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:31,680
Speaker 1: of it's gonna be the you have to factor in

986
00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:38,880
Speaker 1: age catching up to some of these older high performing quarterbacks, Brady, Breeze, Roethlisberger,

987
00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:41,640
Speaker 1: all guys that are on the cusp of having that

988
00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:44,239
Speaker 1: that year where they fall off the table, kind of

989
00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:46,719
Speaker 1: like maybe a little bit of Kneeli Manning type situation.

990
00:50:47,160 --> 00:50:49,719
Speaker 1: The competition is gonna be is gonna be stout, though

991
00:50:49,800 --> 00:50:52,200
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson's gonna be in, Brady is probably gonna be in,

992
00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:54,640
Speaker 1: Watson's probably gonna be in, Rodgers is gonna be in.

993
00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:56,600
Speaker 1: Some people are gonna make a case for Newton to

994
00:50:56,680 --> 00:50:59,160
Speaker 1: be in. I won't. Some will. It's gonna be hard

995
00:50:59,160 --> 00:51:01,279
Speaker 1: to get him in the top five. But I think

996
00:51:01,320 --> 00:51:02,600
Speaker 1: I'm gonna look back at the end of the day

997
00:51:02,600 --> 00:51:04,400
Speaker 1: and look back at him and being number three and

998
00:51:04,520 --> 00:51:08,520
Speaker 1: fantasy points per game this year, and people, we do

999
00:51:08,640 --> 00:51:10,840
Speaker 1: love our new toys, don't we. And that's why Watson

1000
00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:13,120
Speaker 1: is going to be inside my top five two. He

1001
00:51:13,239 --> 00:51:18,840
Speaker 1: will be a top five guy. Hot question number five.

1002
00:51:20,320 --> 00:51:22,600
Speaker 1: Solve this debate that hit my Twitter feed this week.

1003
00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:27,239
Speaker 1: It's championship week in a redraft league. Your opponent has

1004
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:29,960
Speaker 1: Greg's air line, high scoring kicker by a mile, by

1005
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:33,799
Speaker 1: the way, third most commonly held player in championship uh

1006
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:37,640
Speaker 1: in championship matchups this week heading into this week, Greg's airline.

1007
00:51:38,400 --> 00:51:41,280
Speaker 1: For all those people who kickers don't count. No kickers

1008
00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:43,839
Speaker 1: will never get you to a championship Kickers don't matter.

1009
00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:48,560
Speaker 1: Greg's air line mattered anyway. Is it okay so your

1010
00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:51,520
Speaker 1: opponent has Greg's air line going into this week? Is

1011
00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:56,200
Speaker 1: it okay to dump most of your backups and roster

1012
00:51:56,360 --> 00:51:59,360
Speaker 1: a bunch of best available kickers to keep your opponent

1013
00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:03,000
Speaker 1: from getting a good one? Scott, I think it's silly,

1014
00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:05,680
Speaker 1: but it could work. It's It's not a debate for

1015
00:52:05,760 --> 00:52:08,239
Speaker 1: me though. If your rules don't prohibit it, it's fine

1016
00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:10,560
Speaker 1: for me. It's fine if your rules don't prohibit it.

1017
00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:14,120
Speaker 1: If you don't like it, make a rule. I can't

1018
00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:17,120
Speaker 1: make a rule now. I'm saying for next year. But

1019
00:52:17,200 --> 00:52:19,800
Speaker 1: if your rules don't prohibit it, it's a it's a

1020
00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:22,160
Speaker 1: fair game. Yeah, I'm not opposed to this, and not

1021
00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:24,560
Speaker 1: just for kickers any position. If it's I'm playing Scott

1022
00:52:24,680 --> 00:52:26,759
Speaker 1: heads up in the championship, we both have equal chance

1023
00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:30,360
Speaker 1: to add players I'll try and block. Yeah, I'm all

1024
00:52:30,440 --> 00:52:32,520
Speaker 1: for Yeah. I just think that's just that's just part

1025
00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:34,880
Speaker 1: of being a good owner. Now, don't confuse this with

1026
00:52:36,440 --> 00:52:38,759
Speaker 1: uh the guys there there are some. There are some

1027
00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:40,879
Speaker 1: last minute she and again some obvious ones like people

1028
00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:42,879
Speaker 1: wh are out of it will release their whole roster

1029
00:52:43,120 --> 00:52:45,279
Speaker 1: and just to scrub the league out of it. But

1030
00:52:45,360 --> 00:52:47,879
Speaker 1: you can't do that. But two guys in the championship, Yeah,

1031
00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:49,600
Speaker 1: do what you want and you get. You still have

1032
00:52:49,640 --> 00:52:51,279
Speaker 1: to drop players to do that. You might drop a

1033
00:52:51,320 --> 00:52:53,400
Speaker 1: player the other guy wants by accident. Who knows. I

1034
00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:56,279
Speaker 1: have no problem with that. Let's work in one more

1035
00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:59,399
Speaker 1: matchup into this segment, maybe more than one. We'll see

1036
00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:03,600
Speaker 1: how quickly it through Jaguars versus forty Niners. Scott, it's

1037
00:53:03,640 --> 00:53:07,160
Speaker 1: the return of Leonard four net. Yeah, it is. It is.

1038
00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:10,760
Speaker 1: But I'm more excited about Blake Bortles. Somehow Week sixteen,

1039
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:15,560
Speaker 1: we're here, Blake Bortles A grade. I can't believe those

1040
00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:17,600
Speaker 1: words just came out of my mouth. But over the

1041
00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:20,439
Speaker 1: last three weeks, he's averaging over three yards. He's throwing

1042
00:53:20,480 --> 00:53:24,879
Speaker 1: seven touchdowns and no picks. San Francisco they're terrible. They've

1043
00:53:24,920 --> 00:53:27,440
Speaker 1: allowed the pass. Yeah, against the past. They've allowed multiple

1044
00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:30,040
Speaker 1: touchdown passes in eight of their last nine games and

1045
00:53:30,200 --> 00:53:31,960
Speaker 1: one the one that didn't was Travisky and I'm not

1046
00:53:32,040 --> 00:53:38,040
Speaker 1: sure he qualifies as a quarterback, so um uh. In

1047
00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:40,720
Speaker 1: the passing game, though, I'm giving Keeling Colin a grade

1048
00:53:40,800 --> 00:53:43,000
Speaker 1: here too. I I think that there there could be

1049
00:53:43,040 --> 00:53:46,520
Speaker 1: a decent amount passing and he before even before last

1050
00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:49,359
Speaker 1: week's breakout, he had scored in three straight at least

1051
00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:52,440
Speaker 1: three catches in six or the last seven games topped

1052
00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:54,840
Speaker 1: forty five yards and six of his last eight, and

1053
00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:58,399
Speaker 1: his nineteen yards per catch now leads the league, making

1054
00:53:58,520 --> 00:54:02,040
Speaker 1: him viable on low catch days. The forty Niners have

1055
00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:04,800
Speaker 1: allowed sixty yards or a touchdown to four receivers in

1056
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:08,480
Speaker 1: the last three games, including four scores. Yes, Westbrook had

1057
00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:10,600
Speaker 1: a dud last week, but in the three games prior

1058
00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:13,640
Speaker 1: he was averaging nine targets and over five catches per game.

1059
00:54:13,960 --> 00:54:16,840
Speaker 1: I'm giving him a seat. I think mckens might be

1060
00:54:16,880 --> 00:54:20,000
Speaker 1: a little flukey. You can't do that in new championship game.

1061
00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:25,120
Speaker 1: Uh four NET averaging attempts per game. The last five

1062
00:54:25,200 --> 00:54:28,600
Speaker 1: running backs with twenty plus touches against the forty Niners

1063
00:54:28,920 --> 00:54:31,239
Speaker 1: over a hundred yards. Most of them scored as well.

1064
00:54:31,560 --> 00:54:34,480
Speaker 1: They've been good the last five weeks against running backs,

1065
00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:38,279
Speaker 1: but there's some cupcakes in that schedule, so I think

1066
00:54:38,320 --> 00:54:40,440
Speaker 1: that that's more of what happened. I'm giving four NET

1067
00:54:40,560 --> 00:54:45,560
Speaker 1: a nice b there al right over the side. Jimmy Garoppolo,

1068
00:54:45,640 --> 00:54:48,440
Speaker 1: you are facing the Jaguars. You're not a touchdown machine.

1069
00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:52,080
Speaker 1: I'm benching you. I'm sorry. Only Roethlisberger and Wilson had

1070
00:54:52,120 --> 00:54:55,239
Speaker 1: over two hundred fifty yards against them. Speaking of Roethlisberger,

1071
00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:57,799
Speaker 1: the last quarterback to open a career five and oh

1072
00:54:58,120 --> 00:55:02,000
Speaker 1: five wins no losses before Jimmy Garoppolo was Ben Roethlisberger

1073
00:55:02,080 --> 00:55:06,600
Speaker 1: rookie year two thousand four. Uh, Brent Selik, you're only

1074
00:55:06,719 --> 00:55:12,279
Speaker 1: every your Garrett Selik. Excuse me, all right. Uh, he's

1075
00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:15,480
Speaker 1: averageen three targets per game with Jimmy g in there.

1076
00:55:15,719 --> 00:55:17,120
Speaker 1: He's had a couple of good games in a row.

1077
00:55:17,200 --> 00:55:19,359
Speaker 1: But that's not a lot of volume against a good

1078
00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:22,560
Speaker 1: Jags defense that hasn't allowed or that has only allowed

1079
00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:25,920
Speaker 1: thirty nine total yards tight ends over the last three weeks.

1080
00:55:26,040 --> 00:55:30,120
Speaker 1: Benching you, I'm still starting Goodwin though, still C grade.

1081
00:55:30,200 --> 00:55:32,480
Speaker 1: I know you're gonna you're gonna face off of one

1082
00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:37,359
Speaker 1: of the Rambo combo there. But despite despite not only

1083
00:55:37,400 --> 00:55:40,080
Speaker 1: allowing one touchdown in the first ten games to wide receivers,

1084
00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:42,520
Speaker 1: the Jacks have allowed six in the last four games,

1085
00:55:42,760 --> 00:55:45,399
Speaker 1: and the top receiving option has scored a twenty plus

1086
00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:48,719
Speaker 1: yard touchdown in three straight. That's what Goodwin can do.

1087
00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:51,840
Speaker 1: So he will get peppered with targets, I think, and

1088
00:55:51,960 --> 00:55:56,359
Speaker 1: a C grade is fine for him. Carlos Hyde, I'm

1089
00:55:56,400 --> 00:55:59,600
Speaker 1: not even sure you're good anymore. I'm gonna give you

1090
00:55:59,680 --> 00:56:01,759
Speaker 1: a C grade, and it's all on the sixteen and

1091
00:56:01,760 --> 00:56:04,440
Speaker 1: a half touches per game volume you get. But with

1092
00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:08,000
Speaker 1: Jimmy Jay in there, you've only had three targets so far.

1093
00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:11,600
Speaker 1: With Jimmy g because he can throw down field exactly.

1094
00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:13,719
Speaker 1: Got a quarterback that can do that best, hides only

1095
00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:16,160
Speaker 1: averaging fifty seven rushing yards per game, three point nine

1096
00:56:16,239 --> 00:56:19,160
Speaker 1: yards per carry five point nine yards per reception when

1097
00:56:19,200 --> 00:56:22,680
Speaker 1: he does, which is the worst among running backs. I'm

1098
00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:24,719
Speaker 1: giving you a C. And it's all because I think

1099
00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:29,520
Speaker 1: you can get some volume. Seahawks take on We have time,

1100
00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:34,640
Speaker 1: So alright, okay, Seahawks take on the Cowboys. Russell Wilson

1101
00:56:34,760 --> 00:56:37,480
Speaker 1: with the Doug last week, but prior to that, it

1102
00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:40,120
Speaker 1: was like eight straight great games for him, and I'd

1103
00:56:40,160 --> 00:56:42,000
Speaker 1: like him a lot this week again. Yeah, I'm going

1104
00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:45,040
Speaker 1: back to a land with Russell Eli, C J. Bethard

1105
00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:47,040
Speaker 1: and Kirk Cousins in the Rain are the only quarterbacks

1106
00:56:47,080 --> 00:56:49,520
Speaker 1: of failed to throw multiple touchdown passes against the Cowboys

1107
00:56:49,520 --> 00:56:52,200
Speaker 1: all year. So Wilson is a great a start. Doug

1108
00:56:52,239 --> 00:56:54,600
Speaker 1: wildon Doug Baldwin and give him a B. The Cowboys

1109
00:56:54,640 --> 00:56:57,080
Speaker 1: have allowed eight wide receiver touchdowns over the last five weeks.

1110
00:56:57,160 --> 00:56:59,320
Speaker 1: Or Lando Scandrick might not even play, so Baldwin is

1111
00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:01,520
Speaker 1: startable as well, not going to bat for any of

1112
00:57:01,520 --> 00:57:03,960
Speaker 1: the other wide receivers, though definitely not in Week sixteen.

1113
00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:06,160
Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham, I'm gonna give him a B to Dallas

1114
00:57:06,360 --> 00:57:08,880
Speaker 1: has allowed four tight end touchdowns over their last seven games,

1115
00:57:09,120 --> 00:57:11,160
Speaker 1: and Graham has seen more red zone targets than anyone

1116
00:57:11,239 --> 00:57:13,680
Speaker 1: on this planet. So he is startable. And there's no

1117
00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:15,840
Speaker 1: way I'm playing at Seattle back with Shawn Lee healthy.

1118
00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:17,720
Speaker 1: He is just a human vacuum when it comes to

1119
00:57:17,840 --> 00:57:21,440
Speaker 1: running backs. Over to Dallas, speaking running backs, hekill Elliott

1120
00:57:21,520 --> 00:57:23,920
Speaker 1: is back. I'm gonna give him a hard be with

1121
00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:27,120
Speaker 1: an obvious a ceiling. He's guaranteed two hundred yards and

1122
00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:30,200
Speaker 1: is expected to see significant touches. Guaranteed two hundred yards

1123
00:57:30,240 --> 00:57:31,960
Speaker 1: because he bat on it. Yeah, he lost his left

1124
00:57:31,960 --> 00:57:34,800
Speaker 1: tack left tackle though Il Collins also might not play

1125
00:57:34,840 --> 00:57:37,920
Speaker 1: in this game. So uh banged up line. But uh,

1126
00:57:38,080 --> 00:57:40,240
Speaker 1: Seattle is supposed to be a tough matchup running backs,

1127
00:57:40,280 --> 00:57:42,480
Speaker 1: But go ahead and ask Todd Gurley for his take

1128
00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:45,080
Speaker 1: on that one. He just absolutely shredded them last week.

1129
00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:47,520
Speaker 1: As Briant can give him a B against Seattle, opposing

1130
00:57:47,520 --> 00:57:50,000
Speaker 1: wide receivers are averaging nine yards per game over the

1131
00:57:50,120 --> 00:57:52,920
Speaker 1: last five week with six total touchdowns with all those injuries,

1132
00:57:52,960 --> 00:57:55,760
Speaker 1: so he is startable. No other wide receiver is Jason

1133
00:57:55,800 --> 00:57:58,560
Speaker 1: Witten not startable either. Seattle has allowed just four tight

1134
00:57:58,640 --> 00:58:01,480
Speaker 1: end touchdowns all season. Whitten hasn't top fifty yards since

1135
00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:04,440
Speaker 1: Week ten and is totally touchdown dependent. No Donka on

1136
00:58:04,640 --> 00:58:07,320
Speaker 1: him and Dak Prescott did give us see I'm still

1137
00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:09,840
Speaker 1: very cautious here, even with Zeke back, could help him,

1138
00:58:09,880 --> 00:58:12,880
Speaker 1: could hurt him a lot more. But Seattle secondary has

1139
00:58:12,920 --> 00:58:16,040
Speaker 1: been touched up in a very bad way, ravaged by injuries,

1140
00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:18,919
Speaker 1: allowing sixty plus passing yards per game over the last

1141
00:58:18,960 --> 00:58:21,880
Speaker 1: three weeks, So Dak gets the seat. The early game

1142
00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:24,880
Speaker 1: today is Colts. Ravens will tell you how we feel

1143
00:58:24,880 --> 00:58:28,840
Speaker 1: about guys like t Y Hilton, Alex Collins, Joe Flacco,

1144
00:58:29,000 --> 00:58:31,760
Speaker 1: Ben Watson and more. When we come back there, it's

1145
00:58:31,840 --> 00:58:35,800
Speaker 1: no further for the best fantasy football talk on the radio.

1146
00:58:36,240 --> 00:59:07,680
Speaker 1: You're listing of Fantasy Football Weekly on a Fan. Welcome

1147
00:59:07,720 --> 00:59:11,480
Speaker 1: back to the show. It is Fantasy Football Weekly on

1148
00:59:11,640 --> 00:59:15,080
Speaker 1: the Fan. Paul Charge and Scott Fish, Bryan Johnson. It's

1149
00:59:15,200 --> 00:59:18,520
Speaker 1: championship week. We're here with everything you need to bring

1150
00:59:18,680 --> 00:59:22,440
Speaker 1: home the hardware. It starts today. Uh what time to

1151
00:59:22,680 --> 00:59:24,480
Speaker 1: And by the way, right are we carrying the the

1152
00:59:24,560 --> 00:59:26,720
Speaker 1: early game? I suppose we're not because we've got pregame

1153
00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:29,040
Speaker 1: show for Vikings and all that. Yeah, I think you

1154
00:59:29,080 --> 00:59:31,160
Speaker 1: can hear it over on our sister station. There we go.

1155
00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:35,880
Speaker 1: I don't even know a time. That game is three

1156
00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:39,680
Speaker 1: kickoff Colts Ravens Saturday games. Such a lineup now, so

1157
00:59:39,720 --> 00:59:41,560
Speaker 1: you know this one doesn't sneak up on you. And

1158
00:59:41,600 --> 00:59:43,480
Speaker 1: there are some players to play, but not a lot

1159
00:59:43,560 --> 00:59:46,200
Speaker 1: on the cold side. Let's start with Jacobe Prisaid, who's

1160
00:59:46,200 --> 00:59:47,840
Speaker 1: obviously on the bench, and I don't even really need

1161
00:59:47,880 --> 00:59:50,640
Speaker 1: to expound on that, so I'm not going to against

1162
00:59:50,680 --> 00:59:52,720
Speaker 1: the Ravens, but I'll mention that I do have a

1163
00:59:52,800 --> 00:59:56,000
Speaker 1: B grade on Jack Doyle his tight end, because Baltimore

1164
00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:58,480
Speaker 1: has actually surrendered more touchdowns to tight ends than they

1165
00:59:58,520 --> 01:00:01,360
Speaker 1: have two wide receivers this year, and Doyle is second

1166
01:00:01,400 --> 01:00:04,240
Speaker 1: among all tight ends with seventy one catches. So you

1167
01:00:04,320 --> 01:00:06,040
Speaker 1: figure the volume is gonna be there, and if the

1168
01:00:06,120 --> 01:00:08,720
Speaker 1: Ravens are gonna shout out the wide receivers, then Jack

1169
01:00:08,760 --> 01:00:11,760
Speaker 1: Doyle's playable. If Jacoby Brissette is a starter next year,

1170
01:00:11,840 --> 01:00:14,240
Speaker 1: and we benched him. We just call him Jacoby Bristits

1171
01:00:14,760 --> 01:00:16,240
Speaker 1: and I like it, and why not do that? Now?

1172
01:00:16,920 --> 01:00:19,400
Speaker 1: Let's say, because we're sitting in this week, Uh t

1173
01:00:19,600 --> 01:00:22,600
Speaker 1: y Hilton gets a narrow C grade. Uh They The

1174
01:00:22,680 --> 01:00:25,680
Speaker 1: Baltimore secondary has really been rock since Jimmy Smith went down,

1175
01:00:25,840 --> 01:00:29,200
Speaker 1: but they've also been a very tough secondary to score

1176
01:00:29,280 --> 01:00:31,640
Speaker 1: on all year. They have a league low five wide

1177
01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:34,600
Speaker 1: receiver touchdowns allowed this year. Five. That's it. That is

1178
01:00:34,760 --> 01:00:38,080
Speaker 1: crazy low. Hilton has scored only once in his last

1179
01:00:38,120 --> 01:00:41,200
Speaker 1: five weeks, and really I vacillated between a bench grade

1180
01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:42,920
Speaker 1: and a C grade on Hilton. I'm giving him a

1181
01:00:42,960 --> 01:00:45,040
Speaker 1: C grade just because I figured Indie's gonna be down

1182
01:00:45,120 --> 01:00:48,120
Speaker 1: throughout and passing constantly and there could be a garbage

1183
01:00:48,160 --> 01:00:50,560
Speaker 1: touchdown to be had for Hilton. Here. Frank Gore is

1184
01:00:50,600 --> 01:00:53,480
Speaker 1: on the bench. In the six games Indianapolis has lost

1185
01:00:53,560 --> 01:00:58,160
Speaker 1: by double digit figures, Gore's average game has been ten

1186
01:00:58,360 --> 01:01:01,400
Speaker 1: carries forty four yards and hasn't scored in any of them.

1187
01:01:01,640 --> 01:01:03,840
Speaker 1: And this figures to be a double digit loss for

1188
01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:07,360
Speaker 1: the Colts. They're thirteen and a half point underdogs on

1189
01:01:07,520 --> 01:01:10,400
Speaker 1: the road. Against a playoff bound Baltimore team allowing the

1190
01:01:10,480 --> 01:01:12,840
Speaker 1: fifth fewest rushing yards. So there's nothing to like about

1191
01:01:12,880 --> 01:01:14,840
Speaker 1: Frank Gore. He's on the bench. Let's go to the

1192
01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:20,600
Speaker 1: Baltimore side. I love Alex Collins this week. Even with

1193
01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:23,320
Speaker 1: the dud last week, He's still sitting out a potentially

1194
01:01:23,600 --> 01:01:26,800
Speaker 1: gigantic game against the Colts defense that gave up one

1195
01:01:26,960 --> 01:01:30,240
Speaker 1: hundred fifty eight yards to to C. J. Anderson last

1196
01:01:30,280 --> 01:01:33,480
Speaker 1: week and one hundred fifty six yards to Leshawn McCoy

1197
01:01:33,560 --> 01:01:36,240
Speaker 1: the week before that. Collins has scored in four of

1198
01:01:36,280 --> 01:01:39,320
Speaker 1: the past five weeks. India's allowed rushing touchdowns in three

1199
01:01:39,360 --> 01:01:42,520
Speaker 1: of the past four games. It's all good for Alex

1200
01:01:42,600 --> 01:01:45,720
Speaker 1: Collins here, A solid A grade. In fact, I think

1201
01:01:45,760 --> 01:01:48,520
Speaker 1: I've got him at running back five this week, maybe

1202
01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:50,800
Speaker 1: six something in that seven. I've got him his running

1203
01:01:50,800 --> 01:01:55,200
Speaker 1: back seven this week. Uh. Other starters we like Joe

1204
01:01:55,280 --> 01:01:57,440
Speaker 1: Flacca was might take a chance on the quarterback. He's

1205
01:01:57,480 --> 01:02:00,240
Speaker 1: a B grade. Ben Watson was Bryant's take a answer

1206
01:02:00,320 --> 01:02:03,800
Speaker 1: me tight end, He's a B grade. Mike Wallace also

1207
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:06,920
Speaker 1: a B grade, Always a burner. Wallace is averaging twenty

1208
01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:08,800
Speaker 1: yards per catch over the last three weeks and he

1209
01:02:08,880 --> 01:02:13,880
Speaker 1: faces Indianapolis is eighty five ranked cornerback by Pro Football

1210
01:02:13,920 --> 01:02:17,520
Speaker 1: Focus Quincy Wilson and just a battered cold secondary allowing

1211
01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:20,400
Speaker 1: the third most receiving yards. They've given up a wide

1212
01:02:20,440 --> 01:02:23,240
Speaker 1: receiver touchdown in six of the past seven games, and

1213
01:02:23,840 --> 01:02:25,880
Speaker 1: there's no threat from Jeremy Macklin, who's not going to

1214
01:02:25,960 --> 01:02:28,360
Speaker 1: go in this one. Sounds like another stackable team on

1215
01:02:28,480 --> 01:02:31,880
Speaker 1: fan ball Saturday only slate. Today we have a Saturday

1216
01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:36,040
Speaker 1: we go. That's your that is your Flacco, Mike Wallace

1217
01:02:36,080 --> 01:02:38,680
Speaker 1: hookup right there and then Ben Watson. Don't forget the

1218
01:02:38,720 --> 01:02:40,840
Speaker 1: throwin in there, all right, an Ben Watson. Although I

1219
01:02:40,880 --> 01:02:44,040
Speaker 1: want Alex Collins and my roster, so what am I

1220
01:02:44,760 --> 01:02:47,880
Speaker 1: that I can I don't know that I want four

1221
01:02:48,040 --> 01:02:50,680
Speaker 1: Ravens in my in my fanball stack. That might be

1222
01:02:50,760 --> 01:02:54,240
Speaker 1: a it might be a hefty stack. That is that

1223
01:02:54,440 --> 01:02:57,320
Speaker 1: is true. Bunk Allen even gets a C grade here

1224
01:02:57,480 --> 01:03:00,240
Speaker 1: because garbage time and this is it worked out this

1225
01:03:00,320 --> 01:03:02,240
Speaker 1: way a couple of times. Three of the past four games.

1226
01:03:02,640 --> 01:03:05,200
Speaker 1: Bunk Allen has been a viable fantasy starter because they're

1227
01:03:05,200 --> 01:03:07,480
Speaker 1: getting ahead by so much and that figures to be

1228
01:03:07,520 --> 01:03:09,720
Speaker 1: the case here and he could get some garbage time stats.

1229
01:03:10,240 --> 01:03:12,800
Speaker 1: There you go, Colts, Ravens. It's a gross game, but

1230
01:03:12,920 --> 01:03:17,680
Speaker 1: it's happening today at three Giants taking on the Cardinals. Scott,

1231
01:03:18,840 --> 01:03:20,880
Speaker 1: you know, I'm Manning would normally be a guy i'd

1232
01:03:20,960 --> 01:03:23,400
Speaker 1: consider here, but I'm a little bit nervous because Davis

1233
01:03:23,480 --> 01:03:25,840
Speaker 1: Webb was getting first team reps in practice and I'm

1234
01:03:26,080 --> 01:03:27,720
Speaker 1: I'm a little bit worried that it's something that they

1235
01:03:27,800 --> 01:03:29,720
Speaker 1: may want to throw him out for something and and

1236
01:03:29,840 --> 01:03:32,280
Speaker 1: get some usage out of him. Yeah, that is my concern.

1237
01:03:32,360 --> 01:03:34,200
Speaker 1: I did make him my take on, but there is

1238
01:03:34,640 --> 01:03:37,560
Speaker 1: there is definitely a concern for that. But like I

1239
01:03:37,640 --> 01:03:39,800
Speaker 1: mentioned in that take on, he's passing the ball over

1240
01:03:39,920 --> 01:03:42,560
Speaker 1: fifty times per game. If Davis Webb comes in, uh,

1241
01:03:42,600 --> 01:03:44,600
Speaker 1: they'll probably want to check out his arm as well.

1242
01:03:44,720 --> 01:03:48,400
Speaker 1: So I gave both Shepherd and Ingram very strong bees

1243
01:03:48,560 --> 01:03:50,800
Speaker 1: this week. I would have considered as if I was

1244
01:03:50,840 --> 01:03:54,600
Speaker 1: a little more certain of the situation there, But I'm

1245
01:03:54,640 --> 01:03:57,760
Speaker 1: giving strong bees. The Shepherd in Ingram charge likes to

1246
01:03:57,800 --> 01:03:59,920
Speaker 1: point this stat out has for a couple of weeks now.

1247
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:03,200
Speaker 1: I believe that seven straight weeks slot receivers have led

1248
01:04:03,240 --> 01:04:06,920
Speaker 1: their team in yardage against the Cardinals. That's the astounding stat.

1249
01:04:07,480 --> 01:04:10,560
Speaker 1: It really is. Seven straight weeks the slot receivers led

1250
01:04:10,800 --> 01:04:14,920
Speaker 1: their team in receiving yards against the Cardinals. Sterling Shepherd, yep,

1251
01:04:15,040 --> 01:04:17,240
Speaker 1: Shepherd coming off of season high sixteen targets. And if

1252
01:04:17,240 --> 01:04:19,920
Speaker 1: you're worried about Pat Pete, he's played Doug Baldwin five

1253
01:04:19,960 --> 01:04:22,240
Speaker 1: times last two years. Did not travel to cover and right,

1254
01:04:22,280 --> 01:04:23,880
Speaker 1: if you're not going to cover Baldwin, he's not gonna

1255
01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:26,600
Speaker 1: cover Shepherd exactly, so don't worry about it there. He's

1256
01:04:26,600 --> 01:04:29,440
Speaker 1: also not going to cover Ingram. The Cardinals have struggled

1257
01:04:29,440 --> 01:04:33,080
Speaker 1: against good tight ends. Doyle, ERTs, Braid, and Graham all

1258
01:04:33,160 --> 01:04:36,200
Speaker 1: had at least seventy five yards or touchdowns, even multiple

1259
01:04:36,240 --> 01:04:39,240
Speaker 1: touchdowns for Graham. I like Ingram to to to soak

1260
01:04:39,320 --> 01:04:42,320
Speaker 1: up some targets. King I believe has a concussion, so

1261
01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:46,840
Speaker 1: Roger Lewis will probably see Patrick Peterson bench. So the

1262
01:04:47,360 --> 01:04:50,760
Speaker 1: running game, no thanks against the top six ranked Cardinals

1263
01:04:50,840 --> 01:04:53,840
Speaker 1: defense that held Girly under seventy five yards. No, no,

1264
01:04:54,720 --> 01:04:58,360
Speaker 1: just no. Over to the Cardinals side. Uh Stanton, I'm

1265
01:04:58,400 --> 01:05:01,600
Speaker 1: giving a C grade to scared about his Knee's got

1266
01:05:01,640 --> 01:05:03,520
Speaker 1: a bad knee. But they're still starting him over a

1267
01:05:03,600 --> 01:05:07,040
Speaker 1: healthy Gabbert, which is really weird. Over the last five weeks,

1268
01:05:07,240 --> 01:05:09,480
Speaker 1: the Giants have allowed the seventh most yards and the

1269
01:05:09,640 --> 01:05:13,640
Speaker 1: sixth or second most touchdown Zoo Poison quarterbacks ten passing

1270
01:05:13,720 --> 01:05:15,959
Speaker 1: touchdowns in the last four weeks. So it's a great

1271
01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:18,280
Speaker 1: matchup for Stanton, but he's hurt and when he was

1272
01:05:18,360 --> 01:05:23,240
Speaker 1: healthy only just yeah, so bad. That tell you how bad?

1273
01:05:23,360 --> 01:05:26,640
Speaker 1: Would rather have drew Stanton on one leg out exact? Yeah,

1274
01:05:26,680 --> 01:05:28,360
Speaker 1: such a good matchup that I'm going to give him

1275
01:05:28,400 --> 01:05:30,120
Speaker 1: a C. But man, I hope you don't have to

1276
01:05:30,160 --> 01:05:33,560
Speaker 1: go down that road, Fitzgerald. I'm still giving him an

1277
01:05:33,600 --> 01:05:37,040
Speaker 1: A grade. He actually averaged more catches, yards, targets, and

1278
01:05:37,240 --> 01:05:41,080
Speaker 1: yards per catch understanding than any other quarterback he's had

1279
01:05:41,320 --> 01:05:44,600
Speaker 1: at quarterback this year, So I think that I give

1280
01:05:44,680 --> 01:05:46,560
Speaker 1: him an A grade. Giants or bottom ten against wide

1281
01:05:46,600 --> 01:05:49,400
Speaker 1: receivers on the season, and a few slot guys Baldwin,

1282
01:05:49,520 --> 01:05:52,640
Speaker 1: Crowder all had all scored, all had really good games.

1283
01:05:53,240 --> 01:05:57,240
Speaker 1: A for Fitzgerald, B for r s J. Giants have allowed.

1284
01:05:57,840 --> 01:05:59,800
Speaker 1: I don't need to tell anyone Giants are terrible against

1285
01:06:00,440 --> 01:06:04,640
Speaker 1: terrible against the type. Yeah, the only concern is Stanton

1286
01:06:04,720 --> 01:06:08,400
Speaker 1: peppered Gresham the last time was rs J more of

1287
01:06:08,840 --> 01:06:12,760
Speaker 1: more of a gab or or is he just emerging? Also,

1288
01:06:12,920 --> 01:06:14,560
Speaker 1: he's had a couple of days recently, so I'm only

1289
01:06:14,600 --> 01:06:17,720
Speaker 1: giving him a B. I'm also giving the Cardinals starting

1290
01:06:17,760 --> 01:06:20,400
Speaker 1: running back a bat whoever that whoever it might be.

1291
01:06:20,720 --> 01:06:22,920
Speaker 1: The Giants have allowed the most rushing yards and the

1292
01:06:23,080 --> 01:06:25,920
Speaker 1: ninth most receiving yards to randbacks in the last five

1293
01:06:25,960 --> 01:06:28,720
Speaker 1: weeks over the season. In the last five weeks their

1294
01:06:28,760 --> 01:06:32,120
Speaker 1: bottom five in both those categories. Four running back touchdowns

1295
01:06:32,120 --> 01:06:35,160
Speaker 1: over the last three weeks. Uh, it's almost better if

1296
01:06:35,200 --> 01:06:40,320
Speaker 1: Kerwin Williams doesn't got all the carries, that would vault

1297
01:06:40,400 --> 01:06:44,000
Speaker 1: Penny into into really sent spot as a guy you

1298
01:06:44,040 --> 01:06:46,919
Speaker 1: could literally pick up off the waiver wire and start

1299
01:06:47,000 --> 01:06:50,800
Speaker 1: in the championship weeks. Absolutely, if Williams doesn't go, Kerwin

1300
01:06:50,920 --> 01:06:53,480
Speaker 1: had sixteen carries are more in three straight games, and

1301
01:06:53,520 --> 01:06:55,760
Speaker 1: when he went out, Penny had ten carries in the

1302
01:06:55,800 --> 01:06:59,200
Speaker 1: second half last week. I think if Kerwin does go,

1303
01:06:59,400 --> 01:07:01,360
Speaker 1: he's going to be a guy. He's he's shown he

1304
01:07:01,440 --> 01:07:03,320
Speaker 1: can play hurt. But if you can't go, that would

1305
01:07:03,320 --> 01:07:06,360
Speaker 1: be great for Penny, be great for the starting running back.

1306
01:07:06,560 --> 01:07:09,720
Speaker 1: Go to Penny if you're in a pinch. Oh, I

1307
01:07:09,880 --> 01:07:13,280
Speaker 1: like it, Raiders. I don't like the Raiders. Raiders taking

1308
01:07:13,360 --> 01:07:16,000
Speaker 1: on the Eagles, Brian, this is a tough matchup for

1309
01:07:16,080 --> 01:07:18,600
Speaker 1: all of the Raiders. There's not one on the skin

1310
01:07:18,720 --> 01:07:21,080
Speaker 1: docket that I particularly like this week. No, you can

1311
01:07:21,160 --> 01:07:23,640
Speaker 1: start a few, but one of them is not Amari Cooper.

1312
01:07:23,680 --> 01:07:25,920
Speaker 1: Who will who are expected to make his return? But

1313
01:07:26,000 --> 01:07:28,480
Speaker 1: Cooper did not get you to your championship game. Do

1314
01:07:28,640 --> 01:07:31,200
Speaker 1: not trust him in your championship game. A. Yeah, he's

1315
01:07:31,240 --> 01:07:34,280
Speaker 1: on the bench for me. Uh, I'm I'll give Michael

1316
01:07:34,320 --> 01:07:36,320
Speaker 1: Crabtree to be here. The Eagles have allowed the third

1317
01:07:36,360 --> 01:07:39,640
Speaker 1: most receptions and the six most yards to whiteouts. Perhaps

1318
01:07:39,680 --> 01:07:41,440
Speaker 1: you had a great game last week. The return of

1319
01:07:41,480 --> 01:07:43,640
Speaker 1: Cooper might take a little pressure off of him. Actually, so,

1320
01:07:43,880 --> 01:07:46,440
Speaker 1: he's certainly startable here. Uh. Not a startable game for

1321
01:07:46,560 --> 01:07:49,240
Speaker 1: Jared Cook. He's on the bench. Billy allows less than

1322
01:07:49,280 --> 01:07:51,919
Speaker 1: fifty yards per game to tight ends. They've allowed one

1323
01:07:52,080 --> 01:07:54,840
Speaker 1: score to the position over their last seven games. Get

1324
01:07:54,920 --> 01:07:57,240
Speaker 1: cooked out of your lineup to be in there, Derek

1325
01:07:57,320 --> 01:08:00,160
Speaker 1: carr Man. This is the Monday night game. By the way,

1326
01:08:00,160 --> 01:08:01,800
Speaker 1: I don't know if I want Derek carrs my hammer

1327
01:08:01,920 --> 01:08:05,640
Speaker 1: quarterback Fantasy Championship. I've got him on the bench despite

1328
01:08:05,640 --> 01:08:09,120
Speaker 1: Philly allowing multiple touchdown passes in three straight including Eli

1329
01:08:09,240 --> 01:08:12,520
Speaker 1: Manning just for the first half of that game was

1330
01:08:12,720 --> 01:08:14,880
Speaker 1: QB one last week against Philly, but I still love

1331
01:08:14,920 --> 01:08:17,400
Speaker 1: Car on the bench. I will give Marshawn Lynch a

1332
01:08:17,560 --> 01:08:19,680
Speaker 1: be even though I fear the game script. It's not

1333
01:08:19,720 --> 01:08:22,479
Speaker 1: gonna favor him here, but Mike Davis and Todd Gurley

1334
01:08:22,840 --> 01:08:25,400
Speaker 1: top the hundred yards against Philly in recent weeks. Lynch

1335
01:08:25,439 --> 01:08:28,560
Speaker 1: has scored five times in his last six games. The

1336
01:08:28,600 --> 01:08:30,960
Speaker 1: Eagles have allowed three rushing touchdowns over the last two weeks,

1337
01:08:31,240 --> 01:08:33,680
Speaker 1: so I will give Lynch a be here. I'm not

1338
01:08:33,720 --> 01:08:35,599
Speaker 1: gonna give j g I E a B going over

1339
01:08:35,640 --> 01:08:37,639
Speaker 1: to Philly side and give him a sea here. Has

1340
01:08:37,720 --> 01:08:40,920
Speaker 1: total thirty touches over the last two Blunt and Clement

1341
01:08:41,040 --> 01:08:45,920
Speaker 1: had combined for thirty three from Fish. Oh yeah, yeah,

1342
01:08:46,439 --> 01:08:48,320
Speaker 1: Fish bang the drump pretty hard for GI. I did

1343
01:08:48,360 --> 01:08:50,439
Speaker 1: as well, But no one banged hard and than Fish here.

1344
01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:52,760
Speaker 1: But uh let's I'll give him a B upside here,

1345
01:08:52,800 --> 01:08:55,400
Speaker 1: but just to see uh c grade. Oakland has allowed

1346
01:08:55,439 --> 01:08:57,680
Speaker 1: five running back touchdowns over the last five weeks. A

1347
01:08:57,800 --> 01:09:01,840
Speaker 1: gi hopefully another uptick in touches here. Alexon Jeffrey just

1348
01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:04,360
Speaker 1: to be for him. Sean Smith has played better as

1349
01:09:04,439 --> 01:09:06,680
Speaker 1: the season's gone on. He he totally shut down Dez

1350
01:09:06,760 --> 01:09:09,559
Speaker 1: Bryant last week. But you can't bench Jeffrey in a way.

1351
01:09:09,600 --> 01:09:12,040
Speaker 1: He gets the b I am bench Nelson Aglar though

1352
01:09:12,280 --> 01:09:14,640
Speaker 1: this is not a startable spot for him. T J.

1353
01:09:14,840 --> 01:09:17,640
Speaker 1: Kerrey is a legit, legit nickel corner for Oakland. He

1354
01:09:17,680 --> 01:09:21,000
Speaker 1: has shut down other notable slot receivers this year. Solar

1355
01:09:21,080 --> 01:09:23,599
Speaker 1: on the bench for me. Uh, complete opposite for zach

1356
01:09:23,720 --> 01:09:26,400
Speaker 1: Ertz of course, and a and an amazing matchup. Oakland

1357
01:09:26,479 --> 01:09:28,559
Speaker 1: is top four and catches and yards allowed to tight end,

1358
01:09:28,640 --> 01:09:31,439
Speaker 1: so that's an easy start. And Nick Foles I give

1359
01:09:31,760 --> 01:09:34,840
Speaker 1: a cautious sea here with b upside. Oakland has allowed

1360
01:09:34,880 --> 01:09:36,840
Speaker 1: only one passing touchdown of the last three weeks, but

1361
01:09:36,920 --> 01:09:40,320
Speaker 1: they've also faced Geno Smith, Alex Smith and Lack Prescott,

1362
01:09:40,520 --> 01:09:43,040
Speaker 1: so uh, just to see for Foles. We should note

1363
01:09:43,120 --> 01:09:46,360
Speaker 1: if the Vikings are upset by the Packers, Eagles have

1364
01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:48,960
Speaker 1: nothing to play for now, and so you know if

1365
01:09:49,000 --> 01:09:52,320
Speaker 1: you've got if you've got pivotal Eagles that you're counting on.

1366
01:09:53,000 --> 01:09:56,120
Speaker 1: You're really now, you know, ideally before kickoff should be

1367
01:09:56,200 --> 01:09:59,000
Speaker 1: making backup plans with your roster so that you know

1368
01:09:59,120 --> 01:10:01,240
Speaker 1: what to do if this thing, if this thing turns

1369
01:10:02,160 --> 01:10:06,080
Speaker 1: Regret mcollins, Corey Clement, I'd rather not go with Eagles backups.

1370
01:10:06,160 --> 01:10:07,800
Speaker 1: I mean I think i'd rather I mean, you could,

1371
01:10:08,120 --> 01:10:11,200
Speaker 1: they might get more run. Maybe yes, the theory they would,

1372
01:10:11,280 --> 01:10:15,400
Speaker 1: but I'd rather just find other good players. Elijah Penny

1373
01:10:15,640 --> 01:10:19,200
Speaker 1: we were just talking about. Elijah Penny could be your guy. Absolutely.

1374
01:10:19,720 --> 01:10:23,120
Speaker 1: Bill's take on the Patriots. I'm gonna shoot, I really

1375
01:10:23,160 --> 01:10:25,040
Speaker 1: need to take a break. We'll take our break, we'll

1376
01:10:25,040 --> 01:10:27,479
Speaker 1: come back. Bill's take on the Patriots will tell you

1377
01:10:27,600 --> 01:10:29,799
Speaker 1: what you can do with a lot of your fringe

1378
01:10:29,920 --> 01:10:34,000
Speaker 1: Patriots players like Chris Hogan for example, and Charles Clay

1379
01:10:34,080 --> 01:10:36,680
Speaker 1: in this matchup, Tyrod Taylor, what do you do with

1380
01:10:36,800 --> 01:10:39,840
Speaker 1: those guys? We'll tell you when we come back. Your

Speaker 1: I'll speak for Scotten mat We appreciate the opportunity charge.

1410
01:12:23,320 --> 01:12:26,240
Speaker 1: Thank you. Bills take on the Patriots, so let's start

1411
01:12:26,280 --> 01:12:28,040
Speaker 1: on the bill side of this. As they travel the

1412
01:12:28,280 --> 01:12:30,320
Speaker 1: are the road team. I've got an a grade on

1413
01:12:30,400 --> 01:12:34,160
Speaker 1: Leshawn McCoy averaging twenty eight touches per game over the

1414
01:12:34,240 --> 01:12:37,920
Speaker 1: last two weeks, probably another heavy workload against the Patriots

1415
01:12:38,000 --> 01:12:40,639
Speaker 1: this week. He put up over one hundred all purpose

1416
01:12:40,720 --> 01:12:43,400
Speaker 1: yards against New England three three weeks ago when they played.

1417
01:12:43,880 --> 01:12:45,800
Speaker 1: And if they want to stay in this game, this

1418
01:12:46,000 --> 01:12:48,400
Speaker 1: is their best route. He's their best player. The Patriots

1419
01:12:48,400 --> 01:12:50,320
Speaker 1: of a lot of the eighth most rushing yards over

1420
01:12:50,360 --> 01:12:52,800
Speaker 1: the past five weeks, and if they're gonna pull the

1421
01:12:52,880 --> 01:12:54,560
Speaker 1: upset here, it's got to come on the feet of

1422
01:12:54,640 --> 01:12:58,040
Speaker 1: Lashawn McCoy. A grade for him. I've got a bench

1423
01:12:58,080 --> 01:13:00,519
Speaker 1: grade on Tyrod Taylor. When these teams has met three

1424
01:13:00,520 --> 01:13:02,160
Speaker 1: weeks ago, he got knocked out of the game, and

1425
01:13:02,240 --> 01:13:04,559
Speaker 1: his history here is really bad over the previous three

1426
01:13:04,640 --> 01:13:07,920
Speaker 1: mediums meetings. He only through for two touchdowns. He ran

1427
01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:10,679
Speaker 1: in one other score. That's it. I think you only

1428
01:13:10,800 --> 01:13:13,840
Speaker 1: get here with Tyrod Taylor gives you with his legs,

1429
01:13:14,280 --> 01:13:18,560
Speaker 1: and that's super unreliable. I've got a C grade. And

1430
01:13:18,680 --> 01:13:21,679
Speaker 1: Charles Clay, who is the de facto top receiving option

1431
01:13:21,760 --> 01:13:24,800
Speaker 1: for the Bills. He's seen fourteen targets over the past

1432
01:13:24,880 --> 01:13:26,960
Speaker 1: two weeks, which is the most on the team. He

1433
01:13:27,080 --> 01:13:29,519
Speaker 1: gets a Patriots defense that hasn't allowed an imposing tight

1434
01:13:29,600 --> 01:13:31,600
Speaker 1: end to top fifty two yards or find the end

1435
01:13:31,640 --> 01:13:33,320
Speaker 1: zone since way back in Week six. So I don't

1436
01:13:33,320 --> 01:13:36,160
Speaker 1: even love him here. It's a C grade for Charles Clay.

1437
01:13:36,600 --> 01:13:40,679
Speaker 1: Kelvin Benjamin's forced into action really with Jordan Matthews out,

1438
01:13:40,800 --> 01:13:44,760
Speaker 1: Andre Holmes out, He's gamely dragging his bad leg behind

1439
01:13:44,840 --> 01:13:46,960
Speaker 1: him as he's running his routes. You known on him

1440
01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:50,240
Speaker 1: as a part of your fantasy team. On the Patriot side,

1441
01:13:51,520 --> 01:13:53,360
Speaker 1: let's start with the l Lewis. When these teams met

1442
01:13:53,400 --> 01:13:56,400
Speaker 1: three weeks ago, the Patriots followed the same script that

1443
01:13:56,520 --> 01:13:58,400
Speaker 1: most teams do when they face the Bills, which is

1444
01:13:58,520 --> 01:14:01,839
Speaker 1: run your way to victory. Lewis and then Rex Burkehead

1445
01:14:01,880 --> 01:14:06,240
Speaker 1: combined for one hundred eighty eight rushing yards. With burke

1446
01:14:06,320 --> 01:14:08,800
Speaker 1: Head out for this game, Lewis it see even more

1447
01:14:08,880 --> 01:14:11,519
Speaker 1: than the fifteen carries he got last time. Frank Gore

1448
01:14:11,600 --> 01:14:14,040
Speaker 1: put up hundred forty yards on Buffalo two weeks ago.

1449
01:14:14,160 --> 01:14:16,960
Speaker 1: Kenyan Drake put up hundred thirteen total yards on Buffalo

1450
01:14:17,400 --> 01:14:20,519
Speaker 1: last week. He scored a touchdown. I love Dian Lewis

1451
01:14:20,560 --> 01:14:23,759
Speaker 1: with an A grade here, and as I outlined earlier,

1452
01:14:23,880 --> 01:14:26,160
Speaker 1: Mike Gillis LEI he might take a chance on me

1453
01:14:26,479 --> 01:14:29,400
Speaker 1: running back this week. He'll fill the burke Head role

1454
01:14:29,520 --> 01:14:31,640
Speaker 1: in this and could be sitting on all of the

1455
01:14:31,760 --> 01:14:34,439
Speaker 1: goal line carries against the defense giving up the most

1456
01:14:34,560 --> 01:14:36,800
Speaker 1: rushing touchdowns in the NFL. Do you think he still

1457
01:14:36,840 --> 01:14:40,599
Speaker 1: knows the plays though? I think he's familiar with the pain.

1458
01:14:40,840 --> 01:14:42,880
Speaker 1: I like the call. Let's go to the passing game.

1459
01:14:43,240 --> 01:14:46,320
Speaker 1: Tom Brady, just to B grade, I'm worried about him

1460
01:14:46,360 --> 01:14:48,280
Speaker 1: this week for a few reasons. When these teams met

1461
01:14:48,320 --> 01:14:51,400
Speaker 1: three weeks ago, it was all about the running game.

1462
01:14:51,560 --> 01:14:54,559
Speaker 1: The runners touched the ball thirty nine times. That could

1463
01:14:54,600 --> 01:14:57,880
Speaker 1: easily happen again here Buffalo again. Garbage run defense a

1464
01:14:58,040 --> 01:15:00,799
Speaker 1: very good past defense that's allowed a few was passing

1465
01:15:00,920 --> 01:15:04,200
Speaker 1: touchdowns in the league, and Brady's track record here, especially

1466
01:15:04,240 --> 01:15:06,880
Speaker 1: in home games against the Bills, has been really bad.

1467
01:15:08,920 --> 01:15:11,960
Speaker 1: Bills have allowed or have more interceptions in touchdown pass

1468
01:15:12,040 --> 01:15:15,280
Speaker 1: have more interceptions and touchdown passes allowed his average game

1469
01:15:15,320 --> 01:15:17,479
Speaker 1: over the last three years at home against the Bill's

1470
01:15:17,520 --> 01:15:20,320
Speaker 1: hundred fifty nine passing yards. That's it. So Brady is

1471
01:15:20,400 --> 01:15:23,200
Speaker 1: just to be start here. Brandon Cooks is a B grade.

1472
01:15:23,560 --> 01:15:27,360
Speaker 1: He faces the Pro Football focus is twenty six ranked

1473
01:15:27,439 --> 01:15:30,640
Speaker 1: coverage corner E J. Gaines, who held Cooks to just

1474
01:15:30,720 --> 01:15:33,400
Speaker 1: two catches in seventeen yards when they met three weeks ago.

1475
01:15:33,680 --> 01:15:35,960
Speaker 1: The Bills have given up the second fewest touchdowns to

1476
01:15:36,040 --> 01:15:39,120
Speaker 1: wide outs, the ninth fewest yards to wideouts, and again,

1477
01:15:39,760 --> 01:15:41,880
Speaker 1: the whole game script will probably be similar to what

1478
01:15:41,920 --> 01:15:44,040
Speaker 1: it was last time, with a terrible run defense and

1479
01:15:44,080 --> 01:15:46,080
Speaker 1: a lot of running that doesn't work well for Brandon Cooks.

1480
01:15:46,360 --> 01:15:48,519
Speaker 1: I've got Chris Hogan on the bench. He started last

1481
01:15:48,600 --> 01:15:50,839
Speaker 1: week but then got put right back on the sideline

1482
01:15:50,880 --> 01:15:53,320
Speaker 1: with the shoulder issue. Here. He's got this nagging injury.

1483
01:15:53,800 --> 01:15:55,400
Speaker 1: I don't think they need him to win this game.

1484
01:15:55,560 --> 01:15:58,840
Speaker 1: I can't advocate going with a banged up Hogan in

1485
01:15:58,920 --> 01:16:02,160
Speaker 1: this game. And then Danny Amondola has one or two

1486
01:16:02,320 --> 01:16:04,960
Speaker 1: catches in three of his last four games. You can't

1487
01:16:05,080 --> 01:16:07,720
Speaker 1: win a championship with a guy catching the ball one

1488
01:16:07,920 --> 01:16:10,800
Speaker 1: or two times, so he gets he's on the bench.

1489
01:16:10,840 --> 01:16:13,320
Speaker 1: And then Rob Gronkowski's an obvious a for reasons we

1490
01:16:13,360 --> 01:16:15,800
Speaker 1: don't really need to elucidate here, but I will mention

1491
01:16:15,920 --> 01:16:18,000
Speaker 1: that the Bills have only given up three tight end

1492
01:16:18,040 --> 01:16:21,400
Speaker 1: touchdowns all year, so it's not a layup matchup for

1493
01:16:21,479 --> 01:16:25,320
Speaker 1: Gronk either final matchup of the year. I get to

1494
01:16:25,360 --> 01:16:30,360
Speaker 1: put a bowl on it. That's it, you do, Steelers, Texans.

1495
01:16:30,720 --> 01:16:32,840
Speaker 1: I'm sorry we have to finish with the name t J.

1496
01:16:33,040 --> 01:16:37,599
Speaker 1: Yates in any capacity whatsoever. That's all right, that's all right.

1497
01:16:38,240 --> 01:16:40,439
Speaker 1: We'll start with the Steelers side, though I'm giving Ben

1498
01:16:40,560 --> 01:16:42,760
Speaker 1: an a. If he was at home with Antonio Brown,

1499
01:16:42,800 --> 01:16:45,840
Speaker 1: he'd be my number one ranked quarterback. But I still

1500
01:16:45,920 --> 01:16:48,360
Speaker 1: give him an a on the road with Antonio Brown

1501
01:16:48,439 --> 01:16:51,960
Speaker 1: because Houston is terrible against the past bottom five in

1502
01:16:52,080 --> 01:16:56,519
Speaker 1: yards and passing touchdowns, allowed Roethlisberger three yards or and

1503
01:16:56,960 --> 01:17:00,439
Speaker 1: or multiple touchdowns in eight straight games because of that

1504
01:17:00,600 --> 01:17:03,200
Speaker 1: with brown out, I'm giving Juju an A and I'm

1505
01:17:03,240 --> 01:17:06,840
Speaker 1: getting Brian to be what's open for the Juju B man?

1506
01:17:07,920 --> 01:17:11,160
Speaker 1: So close? Yeah, I gotta give him an A six

1507
01:17:11,240 --> 01:17:14,000
Speaker 1: straight games with at least five targets and after brown

1508
01:17:14,080 --> 01:17:18,080
Speaker 1: went out last week six catches hundred fourteen yards for Briant,

1509
01:17:18,280 --> 01:17:20,439
Speaker 1: He's got at least six targets and at least four

1510
01:17:20,520 --> 01:17:23,559
Speaker 1: catches in four straight games. All of those numbers should

1511
01:17:23,760 --> 01:17:26,439
Speaker 1: climb up a little target wise with brown out. So

1512
01:17:27,120 --> 01:17:29,920
Speaker 1: A and a B A for Juju B for Bryant

1513
01:17:30,439 --> 01:17:33,599
Speaker 1: James was my take. Com and Levian Bell is Levian Bell,

1514
01:17:34,120 --> 01:17:36,080
Speaker 1: I don't need to go into that running back this

1515
01:17:36,160 --> 01:17:40,559
Speaker 1: week for me. Ye over to the Texans side Yates

1516
01:17:40,880 --> 01:17:44,920
Speaker 1: against the top five past defense. No thanks, Will Fuller.

1517
01:17:45,000 --> 01:17:47,599
Speaker 1: I'm also benching because I don't believe Yates can support

1518
01:17:47,640 --> 01:17:51,320
Speaker 1: two wide receivers DeAndre Hopkins. However, I'm still giving an

1519
01:17:51,320 --> 01:17:53,640
Speaker 1: a too. I don't care. He's completely matchup proof for me,

1520
01:17:54,080 --> 01:17:56,400
Speaker 1: and I think the Texans could fall behind and start

1521
01:17:56,479 --> 01:18:00,479
Speaker 1: airing it out. Steelers surprisingly have given up eight touchdowns

1522
01:18:00,520 --> 01:18:02,679
Speaker 1: to wide receivers of the last five weeks. That's worse

1523
01:18:02,720 --> 01:18:05,360
Speaker 1: than the NFL, so a touchdown could be had by

1524
01:18:05,400 --> 01:18:08,840
Speaker 1: Hopkins there. I'm benching in the running game. I'm benching

1525
01:18:08,920 --> 01:18:14,400
Speaker 1: Lamar Miller. He in the two blowout losses last week

1526
01:18:14,640 --> 01:18:17,320
Speaker 1: eleven touches, and then the Rams blow out last month

1527
01:18:17,360 --> 01:18:19,559
Speaker 1: he only had twelve touches. So I don't think Lamar

1528
01:18:19,600 --> 01:18:22,200
Speaker 1: Miller can get there on volume and yates, I don't

1529
01:18:22,200 --> 01:18:24,920
Speaker 1: trust this offense to move the ball. I don't. I

1530
01:18:24,960 --> 01:18:29,040
Speaker 1: don't trust Miller. Hasn't top sixty five yards since week five. Nope, benching.

1531
01:18:31,920 --> 01:18:35,200
Speaker 1: And it's time for Lightning Round, our last one of

1532
01:18:35,280 --> 01:18:39,000
Speaker 1: the year. Can we get every caller to only ask

1533
01:18:39,160 --> 01:18:42,200
Speaker 1: one question between two players. We'll find out if we

1534
01:18:42,240 --> 01:18:44,680
Speaker 1: can go out on a high note as we hit

1535
01:18:44,760 --> 01:18:48,600
Speaker 1: Lightning Round. Beginning right now, many people holding for two hours.

1536
01:18:49,000 --> 01:18:52,640
Speaker 1: Thank you, beginning with just says Drs d E R S,

1537
01:18:52,800 --> 01:18:56,080
Speaker 1: Drs Hid Hey, Paul, are you doing good? Thank you?

1538
01:18:56,840 --> 01:19:02,120
Speaker 1: Doug Baldwin or Carloside, Oh, Doug Baldwin, Yeah, with a bullet,

1539
01:19:02,400 --> 01:19:09,760
Speaker 1: thank you, der Drew Hello, Yeah, Hello, Hi Drew. A. J.

1541
01:19:17,000 --> 01:19:20,040
Speaker 1: to ben J. J. Green is to Yes, it's the

1542
01:19:20,200 --> 01:19:23,000
Speaker 1: sleigh ride for a J. Green We're very nervous about

1543
01:19:23,040 --> 01:19:27,760
Speaker 1: that matchup. Dwayne. Hello, I guess my pick would be

1544
01:19:27,880 --> 01:19:35,240
Speaker 1: between Case Keenum or Blake ports Keenum has really big

1545
01:19:35,360 --> 01:19:38,680
Speaker 1: upside potentially in this game against a terrible green Bay secondary.

1546
01:19:38,760 --> 01:19:40,960
Speaker 1: The weather looks like it's going to cooperate for him.

1547
01:19:41,360 --> 01:19:43,400
Speaker 1: I would play case Keenum. I'm sure he envisioned to

1548
01:19:43,400 --> 01:19:47,599
Speaker 1: ask question. Yeah, exactly, you're in the championship game asking

1549
01:19:47,720 --> 01:19:52,439
Speaker 1: between case Keenum and Blake Portles. Thank you for listening

01:20:20,200 --> 01:20:23,519
Speaker 1: against I think that's against you, isn't it? That is

1556
01:20:23,560 --> 01:20:26,560
Speaker 1: against me? This is our Empire league we are in.

1557
01:20:26,880 --> 01:20:29,920
Speaker 1: We are in the first Empire League ever, creative I bought.

1571
01:21:13,720 --> 01:21:16,639

Speaker 1: Kale or Jordan Howard? I forgot? Who up? How you

1573
01:21:24,040 --> 01:21:28,680
Speaker 1: You're a bad matchup for Howard Brown's I'd probably go Hell.

1574
01:21:28,800 --> 01:21:31,439
Speaker 1: I'd go hell from Ronn Hill. Tom. It's it's if

1575
01:21:31,479 --> 01:21:34,479
Speaker 1: that's a consensus. I think that's the right answer. Austin,

1576
01:21:34,520 --> 01:21:40,240

1578
01:21:45,280 --> 01:21:47,400
Speaker 1: I meant to say Juju. I was writing Evans as

1579
01:21:47,479 --> 01:21:52,960
Speaker 1: I was talking. So j Smith, Neil, you're on the fan. Hey, guys,

1582
01:22:01,840 --> 01:22:04,479
Speaker 1: I know I still go. I still go Garoppolo here.

1583
01:22:04,720 --> 01:22:07,200
Speaker 1: He just looks good and it was an awful match.

1584
01:22:07,280 --> 01:22:09,320
Speaker 1: I think I go Tyrod and just hope for the rushing.

1585
01:22:10,400 --> 01:22:12,680
Speaker 1: Who say Jimmy G can rush for some yards too?

1586

1602
01:23:27,040 --> 01:23:30,519
Speaker 1: go with the guaranteed touches from answering this one. Bibbs right,

1603
01:23:31,400 --> 01:23:35,960
Speaker 1: and Cole's got a freaky upside in this matchup, though,

1604
01:23:36,400 --> 01:23:39,840
Speaker 1: I would say I'd play Coals. Capri Bibbs is hot,

1605
01:23:40,680 --> 01:23:45,160
Speaker 1: I'd play Cole. If is way safer, I'd play Coal.

1606
01:23:45,760 --> 01:23:46,960
Speaker 1: The more you think about it, the more I'm on

1607

1616
01:24:25,800 --> 01:24:29,360
