1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 1: Wow, Hey everybody, It's Monday, November seventeenth, twenty twenty five.

2
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:17,600
Speaker 1: Welcome to the NFL Fantasy Football Podcast, where we're three

3
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:19,960
Speaker 1: happy campers. It's being your Man MG Marcus Grand joined

4
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:23,400
Speaker 1: by Michael F. Florio and Lakwan Jones. And I guess

5
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:25,439
Speaker 1: we used to say that it was rare that a

6
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 1: Sunday all three of our team's won, but it seems

7
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:30,320
Speaker 1: to be happening quite a bit lately. So Happy Monday, guys,

8
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:32,040
Speaker 1: Happy victory Monday to all three of us.

9
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 2: Happy victory Monday to you Florida. Of course, I don't

10
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:38,520
Speaker 2: want your team to win ever again, just let's start

11
00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 2: that there. I don't want to be doxics starting off

12
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:42,440
Speaker 2: because it was a good weekend.

13
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 3: You already have. You don't want my team to win ever.

14
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 1: Or mark my team.

15
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:49,960
Speaker 3: No, Marcus, Marcus, you should be rooting against my team

16
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:51,880
Speaker 3: as well, because if you, guys.

17
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:53,479
Speaker 2: I'm not worried about it, you're still on the MVP.

18
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 2: I'm not worried about you, guys. We'll get and touchdowns

19
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 2: times he's gonna sneeze and turn the ball over, man,

20
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 2: Like geez.

21
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:06,640
Speaker 1: We are not even sixty seconds into the show. This

22
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:07,160
Speaker 1: is alright.

23
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,039
Speaker 3: Look, kudos to Stafford. He is the favorite and it

24
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:12,120
Speaker 3: is his to win, right. But if the Bills come

25
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:13,960
Speaker 3: back and win that division, that's all I'm saying.

26
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 2: And them turnovers, brother, you giving teams a chance. I

27
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 2: mean that Dolphins l that's a little embarrassing to see

28
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 2: on them, a little uh win lost streak day.

29
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 3: It's not great. But the first player ever to do

30
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 3: something and he's done it twice though.

31
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:34,399
Speaker 2: Oh boy, I'm talking about this.

32
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:36,480
Speaker 3: I'm talking about three and three.

33
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 1: Three and three, three touchdown passes, three touchdown runs. This

34
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 1: can go on for a while, so let me jump

35
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 1: in here. We got a lot to talk about the

36
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 1: show today as we get into the Mondays, as we

37
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 1: you know, get ready to close the book on week eleven,

38
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 1: get ready for week twelve. Wow, we're almost here. We're

39
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 1: gonna talk some backfield reports because a lot of wonky

40
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 1: things happening with running backs around the league. Of course,

41
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 1: we'll have waiver wires, will have drops, and a little

42
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 1: bit of wtf is going on because there were some

43
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 1: you know, maybe surprising fantasy scores from the weekend that

44
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 1: we will get into. But let's get started with some

45
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 1: news because there was a lot of news on the

46
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 1: injury fronts coming up this past weekend, and a lot

47
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 1: of notable names go through them. I don't know if

48
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 1: all of them are worth talking about. We can dive

49
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:23,359
Speaker 1: into them here as we go along. Josh Jacobs had

50
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 1: a knee injury he left in that win over the

51
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 1: New York Football Giants. I'm still kind of gathering word

52
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,839
Speaker 1: on how serious it might be, but Florio I would

53
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 1: assume this means in the short term, if he can't go,

54
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 1: he being Jacobs, it's Ammanuel Wilson season.

55
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's how it was yesterday as well. Look at

56
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 3: you're not going to be able to replace Josh Jacobs,

57
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 3: but Wilson was out there. He was the clear cut

58
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,079
Speaker 3: lead back. Once Jacobs went out, they sprinkled in a

59
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 3: couple of other guys, but he was the guy. And

60
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 3: this week they get the Vikings, who on paper might

61
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 3: not be the best matchup, but it should lead to

62
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 3: favorable game script. Like every single game with JJ McCarthy

63
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 3: is a competition of like can he have a huge

64
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 3: comeback in the fourth quarter or not, so it should

65
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 3: lead to game script. I don't think Wilson is like

66
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 3: a must start option. This week, but I do think

67
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 3: he's very much so in play as like an RB

68
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 3: two or a flex or streaming option, depending on the

69
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 3: makeup of what your team is.

70
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,399
Speaker 1: You know, all I know about JJ McCarthy is that

71
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 1: against most teams, and really for three quarters against the

72
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 1: Chicago Bears, he is not great. But for whatever reason,

73
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 1: any fourth quarter against the Bears, he comes to life

74
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 1: and turns into a Hall of Famer, just marching up

75
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 1: and down the field. And I know our pal and

76
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 1: producer Hythan Klanne was he was at work, I'm sure yesterday,

77
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: but was probably not loving life watching McCarthy nearly bring

78
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 1: them back for another win. If it wasn't for a

79
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: big kickoff return that set up the Bears for a

80
00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 1: game field goal. Been a mess.

81
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 3: I tweeted out that the greatest quarterbacks of all time

82
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 3: is JJ McCarthy in the fourth quarter against the Bears

83
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 3: and Tom Brady.

84
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 1: That's it. That's it, I mean those, that's the whole list, apparently,

85
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 1: because he's amazing against the Bears when when they are

86
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 1: down late in the ball game. I can't explain it.

87
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,599
Speaker 1: Over to Atlanta Lakwan Drake London left the game with

88
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 1: a knee injury. He's already been ruled out for Week twelve,

89
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 1: which does not bode well for what's going to happen

90
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 1: the next few weeks. On top of that, Michael Pinnox

91
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 1: has a knee injury that could cost him the remainder

92
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 1: of the season. So no Drake London, no Michael Pinnocks.

93
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins means he is coming back to play. Anybody

94
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 1: there in Atlanta that you can get yourself excited about

95
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 1: in this situation.

96
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,599
Speaker 2: I mean, can we look at Kyle Pitts and be like, yay,

97
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 2: because where has my guy been? I was not okay

98
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 2: with the Kyle Pitch Tour concert of the other night

99
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 2: because looking at it was just like, Okay, Drake London's down.

100
00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 2: We should be getting Kyle pit It's activated, we should

101
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 2: be getting him as the number one target. But then

102
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,359
Speaker 2: now we're looking at Kirk Cousins as calling hike and

103
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 2: there's a different speed to the game from him, Like

104
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 2: it doesn't look like he's back to kirkoa chains Like

105
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,479
Speaker 2: there looks to be like a delay in everything that

106
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 2: Kirk Cousins is doing. And it's like I have no

107
00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 2: hope right like really like Drake London. That notification, it

108
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 2: destroyed my whole morning because like he messed me up

109
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,359
Speaker 2: in the middle of making breakfast and I was so

110
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 2: messed up I put the cereal box in the refrigerator

111
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 2: this morning and closed the door and walked away. That's

112
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 2: how messed up that Drake London getting injured right before

113
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 2: the Fantasy playoffs has happened. That's like one of the

114
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 2: worst notifications I got this morning. But looking around at

115
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 2: a darnel MONI my guy's been limping in every single game,

116
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,279
Speaker 2: Like this guy cannot stay healthy and there's not much

117
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:51,159
Speaker 2: like David Seals is there. And he stepped in in

118
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 2: place for Drake London before, you know, in that one

119
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 2: game where against Carolina where he was out, but I

120
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:58,840
Speaker 2: didn't see much from him on film. That was just

121
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,160
Speaker 2: like he could fill the shoes of Drake London if

122
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,919
Speaker 2: he ever goes out again. No, Like, I'm I'm an

123
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 2: unhappy fantasy manager right now. I'm a little worried about

124
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 2: where I can pivot to on this week's waiver wire

125
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:12,359
Speaker 2: for longevity to keep my team afloat losing such a

126
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 2: huge piece like Drake London plus the quarterback in Michael Pennix.

127
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:19,159
Speaker 1: You mentioned Darniel Mooney, by the way, I'm sure you

128
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,280
Speaker 1: saw the story that Rahie Morris let it out that

129
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:27,360
Speaker 1: Durham he broke his collarbone in training camp, like early

130
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 1: early in training camp, and it's just sort of been like,

131
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 1: you know, oh, he's got a shoulder issue and he's

132
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:33,480
Speaker 1: working through it.

133
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 3: And it was hamstring too. Coming into the year. My

134
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 3: moy is broken.

135
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 1: This dude has been playing with a broken collarbone for

136
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,719
Speaker 1: most of the year. So like now, all of a sudden, Clinton,

137
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 1: we had expectations. I mean, he wasn't going to be

138
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 1: a top flight fantasy wide receiver. We thought he's a

139
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 1: guy that you could get some production out of him,

140
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 1: and it.

141
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:53,599
Speaker 2: Hasn't been there, at least a flex Right now, all of.

142
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,279
Speaker 1: A sudden, it makes sense why Darnell Mooney's not giving

143
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 1: you production.

144
00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 3: I'm hurt. Your plan hurt.

145
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 1: So thank you for that. Raheem Morris. Just you know,

146
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,479
Speaker 1: things that should have been barked to our attention yesterday. Uh, yes,

147
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 1: many many yesterdays ago.

148
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 3: At this point, I think the big one of the

149
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 3: big takeaways here is just play the Saints defense next week.

150
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 3: Like Kirk Cousins is bad man. Look, he can't move anymore.

151
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 3: I don't know what happened.

152
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 1: He is kind of just buffering in the pocket.

153
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:25,000
Speaker 3: There is and he's just kidd Achilles is still a

154
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 3: career ruiner. I know a lot of people were like, oh,

155
00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 3: it's like tearing your a cl No, it is bad

156
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:32,200
Speaker 3: and it has ruined a lot of.

157
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 1: Careers well, and especially for a guy who wasn't the

158
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: most mobile to begin with. Now you've lost even what

159
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 1: little mobility you had, and just watching him try to

160
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,119
Speaker 1: maneuver in the pocket is uh, it's hurt. It hurts.

161
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 1: It hurts me to watching that happen. Over to Pittsburg,

162
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:52,560
Speaker 1: a couple of injuries there. Aaron Rodgers with I guess

163
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 1: a fracture in his non throwing wrist right now. He

164
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 1: says that he's going to try to go next week,

165
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,679
Speaker 1: so we'll see how that works out. But also Jalen

166
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 1: Warren with an ankle injury. I've Floyd. I seems like

167
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 1: Jalen Warren was kind of the only thing worth following

168
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 1: there in that Steeler offense because dk Metcalf has been

169
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 1: really underwhelming this year. The tight ends just you know,

170
00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 1: close your eyes and throw a dart at the board

171
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 1: and figure out which tight end is gonna be. Jalen

172
00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 1: Warren's kind of the one thing that we really can

173
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 1: sort of count on, and you know, hopefully this is

174
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: not a serious injury for him, because I don't know,

175
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 1: do we believe in Kenneth Gainwell that much.

176
00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:33,080
Speaker 3: I do think you could believe in Kenneth Gainwell because

177
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 3: he look, he might not be Jalen Warren, but they're

178
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 3: going to utilize him as if he is Jalen Warren.

179
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 3: And in the one game that Warren missed this year

180
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:45,960
Speaker 3: when they were in Ireland, he had a three touchdown game.

181
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 3: I think he went for like over thirty Fantasy points.

182
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 3: He had a lot of volume yesterday. And they get

183
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 3: the Bears next week, which has been a favorable matchup

184
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,800
Speaker 3: for running backs. I also think if you're a DK

185
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 3: Metcalf manager, you should be hoping Aaron Rodgers sis. Aaron

186
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 3: Rodgers right now is averaging five Let me get make

187
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 3: sure I get this right. Five point nine air yards

188
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:15,320
Speaker 3: per attempt. That is awful. They they have the highest

189
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 3: percentage of yards off of yak in the next Gen

190
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 3: stats era, which goes back to twenty sixteen. That is

191
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 3: not DK Metcalf's strength. All three of us were talking

192
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 3: about that coming into the season and stuff, and it

193
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 3: never made sense on paper. It hasn't made sense stat wise,

194
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 3: fantasy wise, any of it. So maybe Mason Rudolph coming

195
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 3: in and just chucking that thing downfield is exactly what

196
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 3: DK needs.

197
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 1: Those are not words I thought would be said this year.

198
00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,080
Speaker 1: That is what DK metcalfane. He just didn't think that

199
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 1: was that was going to be a thing. But here

200
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:49,319
Speaker 1: we are.

201
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 2: We thought that for a little bit, didn't we We

202
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 2: didn't know Rogers was going to Pittsburgh. At one point,

203
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:55,439
Speaker 2: we thought it was going to be Mason, and.

204
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 1: We weren't excited about We weren't excited about Mason Rudolph.

205
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,320
Speaker 3: I'm not excited. I just think it might be the

206
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 3: better of two options right now, which is sad. Hey,

207
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:09,080
Speaker 3: throt Will Howard out there.

208
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:10,880
Speaker 2: Let's let's get a run of him. Is he still

209
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:12,480
Speaker 2: still an active roster?

210
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 1: This is what we're doing here, I mean, please, Aaron,

211
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,720
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers really might get Mike Tomlin fired. Huh, Like

212
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 1: this is really this really happened? Oh no, don't let

213
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 1: it be him, at least really what's gonna happen?

214
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 3: It was a two touchdown thirty point game for game Well,

215
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 3: not three, but point the.

216
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,720
Speaker 2: Point stance exactly. Gainewill can ball. I mean, yeah, I

217
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:36,000
Speaker 2: have Warren Is down. Obviously you go pick up game Will,

218
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,560
Speaker 2: And I'm sure folks are probably aroing him on the way.

219
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 3: I got so lucky this week in a league where

220
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,440
Speaker 3: I was just decimated with injuries, and I was like,

221
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 3: I'll throw Kenneth Gainwell in as a flex thirty points later.

222
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:48,120
Speaker 3: I was so lucky.

223
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, look to use a worn out social

224
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 1: media joke. His nickname or his name isn't Kenneth gain Poorly?

225
00:10:55,559 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 1: It's all right, dad, That's all I got over here, man, Like,

226
00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 1: don't expect better material from me? What do you want?

227
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,280
Speaker 1: Down in Tennessee, Calvin Ridley, who just came back from

228
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 1: an injury, was not back very long. He ends up

229
00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 1: with a broken fibula on Sunday and his season is

230
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,360
Speaker 1: over and the quin I just have to ask, is

231
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:21,720
Speaker 1: his time as a fantasy relevant wide receiver? Is that done? Now? Like?

232
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 2: Injuries aren't funny, Like there's no joke that can land

233
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:28,680
Speaker 2: here that could be appropriate, But bro just just put

234
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 2: the clicks up, chalk it up, go ahead and clock out, Chief,

235
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,680
Speaker 2: because it's done. I can't even sit here and try

236
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,840
Speaker 2: to fathom even looking at twenty twenty six to making

237
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 2: him a fantasy rossable player, because I think his time

238
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 2: in Tennessee has done. I think they're moving forward with

239
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,240
Speaker 2: the younger guys. I think Van Jefferson has proven his

240
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,719
Speaker 2: worth him self to actually be on the field as

241
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 2: a full time starter. I think Elic I Manner is

242
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:54,560
Speaker 2: going to eventually blossom into this wide receiver two or

243
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,199
Speaker 2: one whatever. They're trying to figure it out, but overall

244
00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 2: moving forward, like cam Ward needs like a veteran presence there,

245
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 2: he needs like a wide receiver one if they're going

246
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:07,079
Speaker 2: to look forward in twenty twenty six moving anywhere the

247
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 2: needle period in this offense, because what we're seeing like

248
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,559
Speaker 2: week in and week out is just like a team

249
00:12:12,559 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 2: that is still trying to figure it out. But it's

250
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 2: week twelve at this point, Like what are we doing?

251
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 2: What is the identity of this offense? Like Pollard isn't

252
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 2: startable spears. We have these high hopes for there's not

253
00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 2: much of like upside that I see, you know coming

254
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 2: from you know, this Titans offense period.

255
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, it's just that they've been bad. It's

256
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:34,680
Speaker 1: they're one and nine, they not moving the ball. There's

257
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:37,200
Speaker 1: nothing really to speak of cam Ward. We haven't even

258
00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 1: mentioned cam Ward's name out loud in several weeks. I mean,

259
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 1: that's kind of how it is right now with this offense.

260
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,439
Speaker 1: It's just it's kind of all bad. Calvin Ridley's the

261
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 1: guy who just you know, we had high hopes from

262
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:51,800
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, between injuries he had, the

263
00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:53,960
Speaker 1: year that he took off for. He has his mental

264
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 1: health issues that he was trying to work through, then

265
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:59,720
Speaker 1: he had the suspension. It's just it's just never really

266
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 1: hand out for Calvin Ridley at this point. So that's

267
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know what else to say

268
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 1: about it. Run, it's been a run. I remember, like

269
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,600
Speaker 1: way back when it was Julio Jones and Calvin Ridley

270
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 1: in Atlanta and like they were ready to be the

271
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,920
Speaker 1: next great dynamic duo, and then Ridley took his job,

272
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:22,160
Speaker 1: it took my job. Well, it's funny because they sort

273
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 1: of followed the same path, right, I mean, they go

274
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,920
Speaker 1: to Tennessee, which really is kind of a rest home

275
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 1: for aging receivers.

276
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 2: Wow, Ridley, maybe to the Eagles. Come on, let's finish

277
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 2: it up.

278
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:34,840
Speaker 1: Let's go do it.

279
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:37,679
Speaker 3: I don't know if he'll be fad like what he

280
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 3: ever was before fantasy, but I'm hoping that he has

281
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 3: more football left in him.

282
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 1: I mean, I hope so too. It just he's only

283
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 1: thirty for like another month. I think he takes thirty one.

284
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:52,320
Speaker 1: I think it's theirs thirty one, like in a month

285
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,200
Speaker 1: or something like that. So we'll see.

286
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 2: And with a broken fibula at thirty one, that recovery

287
00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 2: is crazy. You know, he's not going to be as

288
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,840
Speaker 2: explosive as he was before. Like we might as well

289
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,600
Speaker 2: already just write the band aid off and stop trying

290
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 2: to like make him fantasy relevant next year or the

291
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 2: year after that, whatever the case may be.

292
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:10,840
Speaker 1: What's going to happen is when he's bad. Let's let's

293
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 1: I mean, let's game.

294
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:12,320
Speaker 3: This out right.

295
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 1: Let's say he's back for the start of next year.

296
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 1: He'll be that guy that you'll be late in your draft.

297
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,200
Speaker 1: It'll be like round twelve. You'll be looking around and

298
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 1: like the clock's ticking, like where do I go? Like, oh,

299
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley, you know, he'll get a couple of targets

300
00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 1: and then he'll he's just very next to Adam thieln Yeah,

301
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 1: and he'll like you'll you'll click draft and you'll immediately

302
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:37,480
Speaker 1: be like, oh, I probably shouldn't have done that. We did.

303
00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 1: That was good for everybody this year.

304
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 3: Yeah.

305
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, So I mean, look, I wish him the best

306
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 1: in recovery, but I do think that the idea of

307
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 1: Calvin Ridley as a quality fantasy option probably out the

308
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 1: window at this point. So that's the BUTF is going

309
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 1: on with some of these injuries. We'll keep you updated

310
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 1: on those as the week goes along. But to take

311
00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 1: a break, come back and ask the bucf is going

312
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 1: on with some of these other weird fantasy performances that

313
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 1: we saw this past week. That and more coming up

314
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:11,760
Speaker 1: on the NFL Fantasy Football Podcast. Well, as per usual,

315
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 1: there are some fantasy performances that maybe we did not

316
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,400
Speaker 1: see coming, some guys that you weren't really thinking about

317
00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:20,400
Speaker 1: that went big this past week, and so I got

318
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 1: to ask the question, WCF is going on with some

319
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,920
Speaker 1: of these? So I've started off Florida with Bryce Young,

320
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 1: who I was texting you guys because in one of

321
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 1: my leagues. I had the dilemma of do I start

322
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 1: Bryce Young? Do I start Marcus Mariota. I went back

323
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 1: and forth, and eventually eventually I went with Bryce Young

324
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 1: over Mariota. And watching that game from Madrid made me.

325
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:41,520
Speaker 1: At the moment, I was just like, oh, well, this

326
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:43,640
Speaker 1: is gonna be great. And then Bryce Young started poorly

327
00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 1: and I was like, this is terrible. But in the

328
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 1: in Florida four hundred and forty eight passing yards, three touchdowns,

329
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 1: thirty one almost thirty two fantasy points in the overtime

330
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 1: win over the Falcons, WCF is going on, is this

331
00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 1: isn't really a thing, right? This isn't really Bryce Young

332
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 1: at this point? Is it? No?

333
00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 3: I mean, look, Bryce Young could get hot every so often.

334
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:07,520
Speaker 3: We know that, particularly when he plays the Falcons. Like

335
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 3: he has two games in his career with three or

336
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:13,800
Speaker 3: more touchdowns and no interceptions. Both have come against Atlanta.

337
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 3: Four of his twelve career wins have come against the Falcons,

338
00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 3: like he just had. There's certain matchups where defenses have

339
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 3: a QB's number, like the Browns have Lamar's number, but

340
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 3: Bryce Young has the Falcons defense number. You know, it's

341
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 3: just one of those things. I will say this though,

342
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,640
Speaker 3: next week the Panthers they get the forty nine ers,

343
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:40,080
Speaker 3: I believe right, Yeah, Monday Night game. I think Bryce

344
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 3: Young is in play as a streaming option in that one.

345
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 3: But yes, it's still what he is. He's a streaming

346
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:46,120
Speaker 3: guy in the right matchup.

347
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 1: I never mind to say, why are you so excited

348
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:53,760
Speaker 1: about it? But I know why whatever? Yeah, I mean,

349
00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:55,840
Speaker 1: I think he is a stream See. I guess here's

350
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 1: the thing about it, because I spent the last couple

351
00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 1: of weeks and Adam Rank and I have talked about

352
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 1: this on Fancy Live on set that the hard part

353
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:07,840
Speaker 1: about Bryce Young is that, generally speaking, you plug him

354
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 1: in and you can just expect twelve to fifteen points.

355
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,120
Speaker 1: That's kind of it most of the time, which makes

356
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 1: him kind of unappealing because the floor is not super high,

357
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:20,080
Speaker 1: the ceiling's not super high, and so you just you know.

358
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:21,600
Speaker 1: Then so then he does something like this where you

359
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,639
Speaker 1: give you thirty and all of a sudden you have hope,

360
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:27,040
Speaker 1: and you know, hope is a dangerous thing, and that's

361
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 1: sort of how I feel with Bryce Young.

362
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:29,919
Speaker 3: Hope we'll get a man killed.

363
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:34,879
Speaker 1: Hope we'll get a man Killed. Have you seen that movie?

364
00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:38,200
Speaker 3: No, he has to watch it. I watched it again

365
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 3: over the weekend, The Shawshank Redemption.

366
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:42,440
Speaker 1: I saw it on TV. I stopped and I could

367
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 1: watch the good hour of it before I had to

368
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 1: leave the house.

369
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:47,000
Speaker 3: That's exactly like, you don't watch the full thing. You

370
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 3: just see it. You put it on for however long

371
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 3: you're sitting there, and then you go about your day.

372
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:52,200
Speaker 1: And then you go whatever you have to do.

373
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:55,440
Speaker 3: Right exactly, usually on TV for like four hours.

374
00:17:55,640 --> 00:18:01,359
Speaker 1: It's always on television for real. Yeah. Sean Tucker, who

375
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 1: I know a lot of people like this week, Lakwan.

376
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:05,600
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, he's been playing well. He's getting a

377
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 1: lot more opportunity. The Bills run defense has not been

378
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,080
Speaker 1: very good this year. Sean Tucker one hundred and forty

379
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 1: scrimmage yards, three one two three, three touchdowns, really making

380
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 1: Sean White irrelevant. Obviously. I'm not gonna sit here and

381
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 1: tell you he's gonna give you thirty four fantasy points

382
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 1: every week, lakwan. But are we entering the Sean Tucker

383
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:25,920
Speaker 1: era in the Bucks backfield?

384
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:29,119
Speaker 2: I sure hope so, Like I'm buying tickets to the sequel.

385
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:30,920
Speaker 2: I want to see Bucky and I want to see

386
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:34,040
Speaker 2: Sean Tucker rest of the season. Rashan White, I think

387
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,679
Speaker 2: we've know what he has been these last couple of

388
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,280
Speaker 2: seasons and what he can provide, But like this was

389
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 2: a layup matchup for him, and like, yeah, he had

390
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,480
Speaker 2: positive yardage. Yeah, you know we saw a little flashes

391
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,439
Speaker 2: and moments at there. But if he plays the Bills

392
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 2: every single week, he's gonna look good. I mean, no

393
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 2: offense florio that Legit was not a shot, but I'm

394
00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:53,520
Speaker 2: just saying, like, you know, the Bill's defense is kind

395
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:58,480
Speaker 2: of bad against him, but I was looking at it,

396
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,480
Speaker 2: I'm like, Sean Tucker has shown this flashes that he

397
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 2: obviously has the juice. Why would they go back to

398
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,399
Speaker 2: Rashad White and a Bucky Irvin type of split when

399
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 2: you see Sean Tucker conform regardless of the defense, Like

400
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:13,400
Speaker 2: when we got it last season in that Saints game,

401
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:15,439
Speaker 2: both of them were R and B one productions in

402
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:17,760
Speaker 2: terms of fantasy and both had over one hundred and

403
00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:20,360
Speaker 2: thirty scrimming yards. Like what are we talking about? This

404
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,919
Speaker 2: is this is a situation that the Bucks need to

405
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:25,359
Speaker 2: evaluate actual talent. This guy's given it to you on

406
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:27,679
Speaker 2: the ground, and he could be utilized in the passing

407
00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:28,359
Speaker 2: game why not?

408
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 3: And he could pass.

409
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:32,399
Speaker 2: Block, he could do each and everything that Rashad White

410
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:34,560
Speaker 2: is trying to do, but at a higher level. So

411
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 2: with Bucky coming back, why not split the backfields between

412
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,879
Speaker 2: Sean Tucker who is obviously canned on that workload on

413
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,359
Speaker 2: the ground and with Bucky Irvin, Like, I really don't

414
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:45,200
Speaker 2: want to see Rashad White for the rest of the season,

415
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:46,200
Speaker 2: to be honest.

416
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,720
Speaker 1: Now the fear becomes though, and maybe I'm overthinking this

417
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:53,040
Speaker 1: florio that now is Sean Tucker going to start eating

418
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:55,679
Speaker 1: into Bucky Irving's workload a little bit? Because when he

419
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,199
Speaker 1: was healthy, he was getting about seventy five percent of

420
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:01,040
Speaker 1: the snaps, he was somewhere around seven eighty percent of

421
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 1: the rushing attempts. Can they put this Sean Tucker genie

422
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 1: back in the bottle? Though, considering how well.

423
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 3: He's played, Uh, you can for Bucky Irving, Like I

424
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:14,440
Speaker 3: do agree that he should surpass for Sean White, And uh,

425
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:17,080
Speaker 3: I've never been of a shot even when he was

426
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:18,920
Speaker 3: in RB one that year. I've been like, this guy

427
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:22,159
Speaker 3: is not a good runner, and he hasn't been, Like

428
00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:25,760
Speaker 3: he's not explosive at all, and Sean Tucker is the

429
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:28,600
Speaker 3: exact opposite of that. He's highly explosive. I will say

430
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,440
Speaker 3: this too about Bucky. He was averaging three point three

431
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:34,880
Speaker 3: yards per carry before he got hurt, So I do

432
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 3: think there is a world where Tucker can eat into

433
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:41,359
Speaker 3: Bucky's workload, especially since he was out for so long

434
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 3: and they were kind of weird with this injury news.

435
00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:48,199
Speaker 3: They see one hundred percent, we don't know, but I

436
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,720
Speaker 3: still think Bucky sees a heavy enough work share where

437
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:54,040
Speaker 3: it makes Sean Tucker like a big play, reliant flex

438
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 3: guy like in the weeks where he doesn't hit a

439
00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:57,359
Speaker 3: home run, the floor is.

440
00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 1: Probably pretty low. Yeah, yeah, I think it's probably fair.

441
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 1: But yeah, Rashaan White, you very much look like the

442
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,400
Speaker 1: odd man out there down there in Tampa Bay.

443
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 2: They got the Rams coming this week too, So that's

444
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 2: worth keeping in mind when you spent all that fab

445
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:11,440
Speaker 2: on him.

446
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, good point too. Yeah, That's that's definitely something to

447
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 1: keep in mind for sure. Speaking of the Buffalo Bills, though,

448
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 1: Tyrrell Shavers, I went back and watched that game.

449
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:20,640
Speaker 2: And.

450
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:26,879
Speaker 1: Tyrrel Shavers exactly four catches ninety yards a touchdown. I

451
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:28,800
Speaker 1: mean Floya watching it, there are definitely a couple of

452
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,760
Speaker 1: scramble drill plays where he got his touchdown was very

453
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:34,480
Speaker 1: much a Josh Allen just trying to buy some time

454
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:37,200
Speaker 1: and he's like, hey, look Tyrrel's down there and hit

455
00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 1: him for the long touchdown.

456
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:39,920
Speaker 3: Disrespectful throw.

457
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 1: It was a disrespect throw. Absolutely. I guess the question is,

458
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 1: I mean, wtf is going on?

459
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:47,720
Speaker 3: But also.

460
00:21:49,040 --> 00:21:52,919
Speaker 1: This is this like curtains for Keon Coleman after he

461
00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:55,800
Speaker 1: got essentially bnched for missing meetings during the week.

462
00:21:56,680 --> 00:22:00,480
Speaker 3: I don't think it's curtains because they've been pretty vocal

463
00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:02,919
Speaker 3: that like they're not done with Keon, that this was

464
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,440
Speaker 3: just a one week thing, and that he was supposed

465
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 3: to play until he missed that meeting. It's the third

466
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,720
Speaker 3: time already they've had to do this with him, which

467
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 3: is the frustrating part as a Bills fan. But for fantasy,

468
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 3: I think we might be getting to the point where

469
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 3: not a single Bills pass catcher is fantasy relevant because

470
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,760
Speaker 3: yesterday none of them played more than fifty three percent

471
00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,640
Speaker 3: of the snaps. They were going legit six deep at

472
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:30,639
Speaker 3: receiver and then you could bring in key On Coleman.

473
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,800
Speaker 3: I don't think Gabe Davis is going to go away Shavers.

474
00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 3: They use a lot on special teams, so like maybe

475
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 3: it's Curtis Samuel, maybe it's Shavers, maybe it's Coleman. I

476
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:43,159
Speaker 3: don't know, but it seems like they're going to really

477
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:46,480
Speaker 3: be rotating them. And it's kind of a better for

478
00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 3: best ball situation, right because like Shaki is the one

479
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:51,399
Speaker 3: you think you can rely on, but they don't use

480
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:54,280
Speaker 3: him downfield at all, so everything is just bubble screens

481
00:22:54,280 --> 00:22:57,440
Speaker 3: to him. It's not really a super fantasy friendly role.

482
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 3: And on top of it all, they get the text

483
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,480
Speaker 3: since next week, Like I think, if you have a

484
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:06,159
Speaker 3: Buffalo Bill outside of Josh Allen and James Cook, you

485
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:07,960
Speaker 3: should probably be looking to sit them next week.

486
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 1: Obviously you watched the Bills a lot closer than either

487
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,359
Speaker 1: of us. Do. Is it common for Joe Brady to

488
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 1: forget that James Cook is on his team? Because I

489
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:18,680
Speaker 1: definitely got that sense yesterday that they just forgot James

490
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:20,359
Speaker 1: Cook was there for at least a half.

491
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, Bill's fans like literally in the AFC Championship game

492
00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:26,120
Speaker 3: last year, he didn't touch the ball in the final

493
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:28,880
Speaker 3: nine minutes of that game, Like Yeah, it is a problem.

494
00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 3: And even more than it being a problem is when

495
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,760
Speaker 3: he forgets it's usually late in the game, the biggest

496
00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,360
Speaker 3: play of the game, Like there's a two point conversion

497
00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:40,360
Speaker 3: when they were trailing yesterday, James Cook wasn't out there. Like,

498
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,520
Speaker 3: it is very, very something that Bills fans have been

499
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:46,320
Speaker 3: extremely frustrated with all year and even going back to

500
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:46,880
Speaker 3: last year.

501
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 1: There are a number of Bills fans that I follow

502
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:54,760
Speaker 1: on on Blue Sky, and uh, the Joe Brady dislike

503
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 1: is palpable. So I really made it a point. I

504
00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:00,920
Speaker 1: went back and rewatched that game specific last night, partially

505
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:02,560
Speaker 1: because someone is to see I wanted to see the

506
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:04,960
Speaker 1: game because it was a bananas back and forth sort

507
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 1: of game, but also I just kind of wanted to

508
00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:08,680
Speaker 1: get a sense of what they were talking about. I'm

509
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,200
Speaker 1: really I was really like, why isn't James Cook getting

510
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 1: every time James Cook got the ball, I'm like, why

511
00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 1: isn't Why is he get the ball more? And and

512
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:18,359
Speaker 1: why is he trying him on these like these you

513
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:22,160
Speaker 1: know toss plays where the Bucks have the edge set

514
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:25,359
Speaker 1: like all the time. Yeah, I was just confused by

515
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,720
Speaker 1: a lot of things with the Bills yesterday. That's all.

516
00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 3: I'll say something negative about my team, right, Like I

517
00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 3: I don't think Josh Allen played a great game yesterday

518
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 3: and he had a historic performance, Like like if you

519
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 3: you watched it back, Marcus, there was a number of

520
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:41,440
Speaker 3: deep throws that he wishes he could have back and

521
00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:42,159
Speaker 3: he missed.

522
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, he missed a couple of throws. The the interceptions

523
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:51,000
Speaker 1: were the first one was dumb, the chest pass he

524
00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:53,639
Speaker 1: tries to throw, Like, I don't know what that was.

525
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:58,680
Speaker 2: Ving that brother, that was a bad is doing ninety

526
00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:00,280
Speaker 2: percent of the stuff, Josh Allen.

527
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:03,880
Speaker 3: Here we go, Here we go. Look, I love Stafford.

528
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:07,440
Speaker 3: He has the best system built around him of any quarterback.

529
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:11,040
Speaker 1: Also, he looked more like John Stafford yesterday than Matthew Stafford.

530
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:13,240
Speaker 1: All Right, chill out now, that was a big win.

531
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:15,680
Speaker 2: That was a big win. He made some big plays.

532
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:17,879
Speaker 1: I mean it was a big win. It was a

533
00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 1: big win. He made some big plays.

534
00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,200
Speaker 3: He had a chance siced the game. What happened.

535
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:26,199
Speaker 1: But the Seahawks defense also put them in clamps for

536
00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:27,480
Speaker 1: a good portion of the ball game.

537
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:31,320
Speaker 2: That's because McVeigh wanted to milk the clock too early

538
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 2: and started doing dumb stuff. As he usually does at

539
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:38,239
Speaker 2: the wrong time. Like, just bro, play the game and

540
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:39,360
Speaker 2: keep the foot.

541
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:39,680
Speaker 1: On the gash?

542
00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:40,480
Speaker 3: Like what do we do?

543
00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 2: Y'all going to give me the crash out for like

544
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:42,919
Speaker 2: twelve minutes?

545
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 3: Wait McVeigh completed fifty of the passes yesterday.

546
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 2: Oh, here we go. Did you not see DeVante Adams

547
00:25:49,840 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 2: drop two big passes?

548
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,640
Speaker 1: Like, bro, this is why we signed you.

549
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:55,639
Speaker 3: I mean one of them was It hit him in

550
00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 3: the hands, but it was a bad throat was under pressure?

551
00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 3: What do you expect? He was not even supposed to

552
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 3: that ball off of his hand. Can QB's move around

553
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:03,479
Speaker 3: when they're under pressure?

554
00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 1: Florio? You have to understand Matthew Stafford can never fail.

555
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:09,680
Speaker 1: He can only be failed.

556
00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:14,160
Speaker 2: Person that refuses to take a l Floria. What did

557
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 2: he say Friday or Thursday? Oh yeah, even when I lose?

558
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 3: I wait, come on, hey, Broco's back. Yesterday they were

559
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:23,160
Speaker 3: bowling out.

560
00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:25,920
Speaker 1: I'm rock Thurty is back, but he ain't.

561
00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:28,440
Speaker 2: An MVP conversation is big Bunnes.

562
00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 1: City was, but Christian McCaffrey might be.

563
00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 2: Uh.

564
00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:33,880
Speaker 3: I made the case for it yesterday and it got

565
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 3: even stronger.

566
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 1: Speaking of forty nine ers, former forty nine ers. Deebo

567
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 1: Samuel had maybe his best fantasy game of the season,

568
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:44,080
Speaker 1: seven catches, seventy four yards and a touchdown in what

569
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,800
Speaker 1: was just an otherwise sloppy and kind of miserable game

570
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 1: to watch in Madrid, Laquaile. We don't know what the

571
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,560
Speaker 1: status of Jaden Daniels is going to be going forward

572
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:55,879
Speaker 1: at this point. It could be Marcus Mariota for the

573
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:58,919
Speaker 1: rest of the season. We don't know yet. Is this

574
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 1: a one off for Deebo or maybe are him and

575
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:02,720
Speaker 1: Mariota connecting on some level.

576
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:06,160
Speaker 2: I think they were connecting on some level when Jade

577
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,720
Speaker 2: Daniy's first face injury, Like the target share is always

578
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:10,600
Speaker 2: going to rely with him. It's just a matter of

579
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:14,160
Speaker 2: does Deebo show up this week, and we cannot pinpoint

580
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:17,120
Speaker 2: that because we are just the fantasy analysts that try

581
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:19,439
Speaker 2: to follow the t in trend leaves, and like, what

582
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:22,320
Speaker 2: this has shown is that that connection is still existing,

583
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:25,119
Speaker 2: that Debo can still be explosive at times. He's not

584
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 2: thick Debo. He is really Deebo in shape and ready

585
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:29,960
Speaker 2: to go. So I think more so on a week

586
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 2: to week basis, I can always tag him as a

587
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 2: flex option, you know, like I don't see like him

588
00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:37,639
Speaker 2: having that high ceiling as a wide receiver one, but

589
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:40,320
Speaker 2: if I have other options that have safer floors, because

590
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:42,960
Speaker 2: Deebo seems to be matchup based, and I think we

591
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 2: can kind of right in our heads and kind of

592
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:47,040
Speaker 2: paint that picture that Mariota is going to play at

593
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:49,639
Speaker 2: least leading up into the Fantasy playoffs. So you're just

594
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 2: hoping that that target share that he has to him

595
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:54,479
Speaker 2: is going to be strapped to him moving forward, and

596
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 2: we need some more explosive plays Cliff Kingsberry like put

597
00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,920
Speaker 2: debo in space, Like give us the old winer's type

598
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 2: of debo, you know, those type of plays, and designed

599
00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:04,719
Speaker 2: him in areas to be successful.

600
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:06,840
Speaker 1: I mean, let's see, and I've been saying this for

601
00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:10,480
Speaker 1: a couple of years now, like Demo Samuel is a

602
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,720
Speaker 1: better real life football player than he is a fantasy

603
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,040
Speaker 1: football player. And I think I think we still have

604
00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:19,679
Speaker 1: in our heads that twenty twenty one season where you know,

605
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:21,680
Speaker 1: he had the fourteen hundred yards receiver, which, by the way,

606
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:23,439
Speaker 1: the only time in his career he's ever had more

607
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:24,720
Speaker 1: than nine hundred yards.

608
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:26,200
Speaker 3: That guy's long gone.

609
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:30,639
Speaker 1: He's never had nine hundred yards receiving another season you

610
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,080
Speaker 1: know he had he had the rushing touchdowns that year,

611
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 1: was eight rushing touchdowns that season. And I think we

612
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,560
Speaker 1: still have in our heads that like, yeah, this is

613
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:41,560
Speaker 1: Deebo Samuel, Like, no, that's the outlier season. The real

614
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,680
Speaker 1: Deebo Samuel's a guy who will move the chains and

615
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:47,320
Speaker 1: he will make big plays for you, but the ceiling

616
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:49,480
Speaker 1: generally for him is going to be kind of low.

617
00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:51,800
Speaker 1: And you know, that's I think kind of what he's

618
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,920
Speaker 1: been in Washington, except they're not winning.

619
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:57,920
Speaker 3: I didn't think of this in live time, but Debo

620
00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:00,680
Speaker 3: probably should. Like I argued Brady should have won that MVP,

621
00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:02,600
Speaker 3: but it probably should have been Debot with the amount

622
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 3: of work that he did as a rusher receiver, like

623
00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 3: literally that was also the season where every time he

624
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:10,800
Speaker 3: got tackled it looked like it was a season ending injury,

625
00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:12,880
Speaker 3: and then the next nap he was out there like

626
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:13,680
Speaker 3: it was insane.

627
00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:17,160
Speaker 1: Then he rips off another ten yards, you know, so

628
00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:20,080
Speaker 1: like yeah, but you know, it's a quarterback award, and

629
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,400
Speaker 1: if you are really great at another position, then they

630
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 1: just satisfy you with like the opoy because whatever reason voters,

631
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:31,280
Speaker 1: voters are brain addled, Sorry I was I was about

632
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:32,480
Speaker 1: to kind of go off on a tangent. I will

633
00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 1: actually for a second, I guess what frustrates me about this,

634
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:38,640
Speaker 1: and this is not a forty nine or thing. This

635
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:42,120
Speaker 1: is just a the MVP Award is that the people

636
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:45,720
Speaker 1: who vote for it. You will hear these people say, oh, yeah, no,

637
00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 1: this guy's actually worthy. But it's kind of a quarterback award.

638
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 3: It doesn't have to be. You're voting for it.

639
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,320
Speaker 1: You have control over this, Like, don't just sit here

640
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:57,360
Speaker 1: and say, well, it's a quarterback award. I would We're

641
00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:58,920
Speaker 1: all trying to find a guy who did this, Like

642
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,080
Speaker 1: why you can have you have to say you can

643
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 1: make this not a quarterback award. If you have a vote,

644
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 1: you can vote for somebody who's not a quarterback. Don't

645
00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 1: just be like, yeah, man, that's a tough scene, man,

646
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:09,320
Speaker 1: Jonath Taylor having a great year.

647
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 3: Tough scene.

648
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:12,160
Speaker 1: Now we're gonna give it to you a quarterback because

649
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 1: that's just what we do. Like, no, it didn't have

650
00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 1: to be that way, all right? Rant over?

651
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 3: Hey, JT goes for a buck fifty next week against

652
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:21,080
Speaker 3: the Chiefs, give him the.

653
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 1: Award Jimmy Award. Gimme the award. We need the NFL equivalent.

654
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:28,240
Speaker 1: I was talking to DeMarco Farr former RAM about this too,

655
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:30,520
Speaker 1: and he brought it up team. He mentioned, like college

656
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:33,160
Speaker 1: has the Davy O'Brien Award, which goes to the best quarterback.

657
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 1: Now you can win the Davy O'Brien and also win

658
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:40,480
Speaker 1: the Heisman Trophy. But it's not a guarantee that just

659
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:42,560
Speaker 1: the best quarterback in the country is going to win

660
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 1: the Travis Hunter is your reigning Heisman Trophy winner. Because

661
00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:48,120
Speaker 1: people can look outside a quarterback and be like, that

662
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:50,400
Speaker 1: guy's really good. So like, why can't we do that

663
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 1: the NFL where we have the NFL equivalent of the

664
00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 1: Davy O'Brien Award that goes to the best quarterback, And

665
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:57,960
Speaker 1: if you are the best quarterback and the best player,

666
00:30:58,000 --> 00:30:59,600
Speaker 1: then you can get both. But it doesn't have to

667
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,040
Speaker 1: be that way, hey, Like we can be we can

668
00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:04,360
Speaker 1: create a better world people, We can create a better world.

669
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 1: We can do it. We can all do it together.

670
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:08,600
Speaker 1: Just take one step forward, take my hand. We can

671
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,520
Speaker 1: go to a better world. That might be next.

672
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:15,120
Speaker 2: I love Marcus crashing out on Monday Favoritport.

673
00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:19,000
Speaker 1: So you're talking about running backs the Backfield Report looking

674
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,440
Speaker 1: at some running backs that are in weird situations. And

675
00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:25,120
Speaker 1: so I was because so yesterday in the text, Shane

676
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 1: Lakwand sort of had a minor, minor crash out about

677
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:31,600
Speaker 1: how r J. Harvey had fewer touch sent that by

678
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:37,760
Speaker 1: the way, r J's Harvey had fewer touches than Blake Korum,

679
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:40,720
Speaker 1: and how he was cursing the name of Sean Payton.

680
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 1: So that was like, now, I got to get r J.

681
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 1: Harvey into the show some kind of way. So the

682
00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,000
Speaker 1: Backfield Report felt like the best way to do that.

683
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 1: So it's look at look at the Broncos backfield from yesterday.

684
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,480
Speaker 1: R J. Harvey played sixty one percent of the snaps,

685
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:56,840
Speaker 1: had fourteen total opportunities in fifty yards. Julia McLoughlin played

686
00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 1: thirteen percent of the snaps and had seven opportunities for

687
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:02,160
Speaker 1: sen yards in a touchdown. Tyler b Beday thirteen percent

688
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:05,080
Speaker 1: of the snaps, one opportunity, zero yards. He had one

689
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:07,840
Speaker 1: chtch one target, one chtch for zero yards. That is,

690
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:13,880
Speaker 1: that was Tyler Badey's day yesterday. So Lakwan, I don't

691
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:15,360
Speaker 1: even have to say about ARJ. Harvey at this point

692
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:17,840
Speaker 1: because I thought if it was gonna happen, yesterday was

693
00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:19,360
Speaker 1: the day for it to happen. I know it was

694
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:22,480
Speaker 1: a good matchup on paper, but it just felt like

695
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 1: if they were going to ever load him up with touches,

696
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 1: yesterday was day to do it. It didn't happen at

697
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:29,360
Speaker 1: this point. I just I don't see how it ever

698
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:32,200
Speaker 1: happens at all for him this year. Sean Payn is

699
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:34,760
Speaker 1: a fan of the Pod. I truly believe that he

700
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:35,600
Speaker 1: listens to us.

701
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:39,600
Speaker 2: He hate listens to us if he does every single

702
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 2: time bro where there's stars are aligning for him to

703
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:45,840
Speaker 2: do the right thing, he does not, And I think

704
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:48,160
Speaker 2: he does it on purpose and it only hurts his team.

705
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:50,480
Speaker 2: But again they come out with a W. So why

706
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,080
Speaker 2: change it? If it ain't broke, why fix it? And

707
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:55,920
Speaker 2: I think, honestly RJ. Harvey had opportunities to break off

708
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:58,320
Speaker 2: a couple of runs, but again, this was a tough

709
00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 2: Spags defense. We know with the Chiefs defense is about

710
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:05,280
Speaker 2: so start designing him more in open space, give him

711
00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 2: more targets. We've seen him get Pepperwood more targets than

712
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:10,920
Speaker 2: what we had when JK. Domins was healthy. So why

713
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:14,680
Speaker 2: we're not giving him the full workload. The script should

714
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:18,080
Speaker 2: have been RJ. Harvey twenty five touches RJ. Harvey red

715
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:21,040
Speaker 2: zone duty. I don't want to see Tyler Biday or

716
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 2: whoever else was out there McLoughlin, I mean, was was.

717
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:26,160
Speaker 3: Audrick estimate out there?

718
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:26,320
Speaker 1: Like?

719
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 2: This was set me off because every time I didn't

720
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 2: see twelve on the field, I was just like, why

721
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:32,600
Speaker 2: I took this.

722
00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:34,960
Speaker 3: As a completely I view this as a huge pot.

723
00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 3: Sixty percent of the snaps more than double the opportunities

724
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 3: of the other backs, like right or double, I should

725
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:43,640
Speaker 3: say I took it as like they get the Commanders

726
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 3: and the Raiders after the buye. I think right now

727
00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:48,280
Speaker 3: you should be trying to trade for RJ. Harvey.

728
00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:50,880
Speaker 1: H I mean, y'laso had a pass attempt for what

729
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:53,120
Speaker 1: it's worth. Like they seem to like having him throw

730
00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 1: the football too?

731
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:55,280
Speaker 3: Why are we getting cute?

732
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 2: That's what pisses me off too. I don't want to

733
00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,040
Speaker 2: see down the stat line. I don't even want to

734
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 2: watch the highlight of getting it. Why is he throwing

735
00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:03,600
Speaker 2: give him the ball bro in his hands.

736
00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:06,520
Speaker 3: It was a terrible throw. It was not a throw

737
00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:07,960
Speaker 3: I should have been intercepted.

738
00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:11,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was not a good throw.

739
00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,920
Speaker 2: I kind of wish it was intercepted, just so Sean

740
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:14,919
Speaker 2: can be like, all right, my fault.

741
00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:17,560
Speaker 3: No, man, the result the game worked out how it

742
00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:20,200
Speaker 3: was supposed to work out, you know the results we

743
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:23,280
Speaker 3: all wanted, Well it was it was, to be honest.

744
00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:29,000
Speaker 1: Sure the Jaguars. It seems like for a good year

745
00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:30,640
Speaker 1: and a half, maybe two years now, Floria and the

746
00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:32,560
Speaker 1: Jaguars have been trying to move on from Travis et

747
00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:35,920
Speaker 1: and they haven't really been able to do it. Maybe no,

748
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:39,839
Speaker 1: because Etn played fifty one percent of the snaps twenty

749
00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:42,160
Speaker 1: one opportunities. He turned that into seventy three yards at

750
00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 1: a pair of touchdowns. Ben Shall Tutan thirty two percent

751
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 1: of the snaps fifteen opportunities, seventy four yards in a touchdown.

752
00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 1: He did leave that game though, with an ankle injury,

753
00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:52,560
Speaker 1: So that's something to kind of monitor.

754
00:34:53,040 --> 00:34:55,839
Speaker 3: But are we I know, we've all.

755
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,279
Speaker 1: Been rooting for Tutin for for a good chunk of

756
00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:01,920
Speaker 1: the year. Is I guess went healthy? Is he really

757
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:04,399
Speaker 1: going to start pushing Travis Etn for opportunities now?

758
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:08,800
Speaker 3: If healthy and he as long as it doesn't sap

759
00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:12,360
Speaker 3: his explosiveness this ankle injury, I think it's very possible

760
00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:16,719
Speaker 3: because he is one. He is the first like handpicked

761
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:18,960
Speaker 3: running back by this new regime. There, they already had

762
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:22,120
Speaker 3: Travis Etn on the roster. But more than that, I

763
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:26,160
Speaker 3: think he's just a more explosive runner than Etn is

764
00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:29,440
Speaker 3: evident by having more yards on six less opportunities. So

765
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:34,319
Speaker 3: I don't think ETN goes away, but I could see

766
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:37,279
Speaker 3: two In getting more and more used, kind of like

767
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:39,200
Speaker 3: last year when they use a two RB set. I

768
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:42,360
Speaker 3: do think Etn will remain the heavy unless things really

769
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:45,719
Speaker 3: start to change because he has produced well this year.

770
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:48,799
Speaker 3: But yeah, I think the Jags really like two In.

771
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 3: I think they like what he brings them as a dynamic,

772
00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:54,279
Speaker 3: explosive runner, and I would I was hoping for more

773
00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:56,719
Speaker 3: of an opportunity before this week, so I'm happy it's

774
00:35:56,760 --> 00:36:01,040
Speaker 3: finally happening. But yeah, we got we got monitor this

775
00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 3: ankle injury because if he is out, then Lq's boy,

776
00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:06,840
Speaker 3: LQ might will be the RB two there.

777
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:12,839
Speaker 1: Dude, I like that. Yeah, I mean, so we'll see.

778
00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:15,320
Speaker 1: I mean obviously people were that was the reason when

779
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:20,160
Speaker 1: they traded Tank Bigsby to Philadelphia. We were all kind

780
00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:22,160
Speaker 1: of like, oh, so maybe this is base shalle touton season?

781
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:24,480
Speaker 3: Is he the most explosive runnerund the Eagles? Like what

782
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:26,600
Speaker 3: is going on? Yo? Yo?

783
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:31,560
Speaker 2: Tank is a subject though, maybe, But so they're using

784
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:34,759
Speaker 2: Tank in very small doses like that feels like one

785
00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:36,880
Speaker 2: of those things where if they suddenly started trying to

786
00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:39,160
Speaker 2: give him like twelve to fifteen touches, like it just

787
00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:41,719
Speaker 2: would not work out. He's on my watch list just

788
00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:43,960
Speaker 2: in case for the fantasy playoffs, He's on my watch list.

789
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:47,040
Speaker 3: I know this isn't a hot take at all or

790
00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:50,480
Speaker 3: like an observation, but like, the Eagles literally can't do

791
00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:53,440
Speaker 3: anything right and yet they're the best team in the NFL.

792
00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:54,840
Speaker 3: It doesn't make any sense to me.

793
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:57,520
Speaker 2: So my take all the way in Week three back

794
00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:00,920
Speaker 2: then when I said they're the most overrated an ugliest

795
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:04,400
Speaker 2: winning team, you guys were saying, ah, there's guys just better.

796
00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:08,040
Speaker 3: Well that was emotionally driven. It was, and it doesn't

797
00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:09,040
Speaker 3: mean I was wrong.

798
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:11,640
Speaker 1: You were in your feelings that day. They're also eight

799
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:13,279
Speaker 1: and two and they're the one seed. I mean, like,

800
00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:16,600
Speaker 1: it's not pretty. People who love the law and sausage

801
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:18,799
Speaker 1: and Eagles football should watch neither one being made. Like

802
00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:22,960
Speaker 1: it's not pretty to watch, but it's effective. I mean,

803
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,280
Speaker 1: that's just what it is. It's like it's like Spurs

804
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:27,759
Speaker 1: basketball in the early two thousands, right, Like they're only

805
00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:31,200
Speaker 1: gonna score seventy eight points and they're gonna slow the

806
00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:32,799
Speaker 1: game down, but they're gonna win.

807
00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:34,879
Speaker 3: There's the Chiefs from last year.

808
00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:37,319
Speaker 1: They are they're the Chiefs from last year. Like they

809
00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:39,640
Speaker 1: can't keep getting away with this, yet somehow they keep

810
00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 1: getting away with this.

811
00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:43,120
Speaker 3: They're the Chiefs but with far more talent, Like they

812
00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:45,760
Speaker 3: have one of the best players at every skilled position

813
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:47,920
Speaker 3: on offense and they can't do anything with it.

814
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:51,240
Speaker 2: Like, yeah, I don't know, I don't the line suck.

815
00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:54,239
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't even understand how that game went,

816
00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:57,040
Speaker 2: like they were supposed to handle business. Got me looking silly.

817
00:37:57,040 --> 00:37:58,440
Speaker 2: But shout out to JMO though.

818
00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:01,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, look to Dan Campbell for getting James

819
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:04,320
Speaker 1: and Williams back in our lives. Although Dan, it's okay

820
00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:06,280
Speaker 1: to punt. It's okay to kick every once in a while.

821
00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:09,120
Speaker 2: Yeah don't yeah four and three or whatever that was.

822
00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:11,400
Speaker 1: It's okay to kick every once in a while, dude.

823
00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:13,840
Speaker 3: You know, Dan Campbell and Sean McDermott are a reminder

824
00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:16,920
Speaker 3: that we're getting old now because they need glasses nowadays

825
00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:17,719
Speaker 3: on the sideline.

826
00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:21,719
Speaker 1: And like Tome goes for us, all comes for us.

827
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:24,480
Speaker 1: All for sure, one last backfield to get to before

828
00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:28,200
Speaker 1: we hit a break the commanders, the three headed backfield

829
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:31,680
Speaker 1: looks real there, Lakwan. Chris Rodriguez forty five percent of

830
00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:35,680
Speaker 1: the snaps, sixteen opportunities eighty five total yards. Bill are

831
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:39,960
Speaker 1: we calling? We're calling hi, Jakory now he's back. Corey

832
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:43,399
Speaker 1: Krossky Merrit twenty seven percent of the snaps, ten opportunities

833
00:38:43,440 --> 00:38:47,719
Speaker 1: thirty three yards. Jeremy McNichols twenty six snaps, six opportunities

834
00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:52,319
Speaker 1: twenty nine yards. I mean, I guess this is Chris Rodriguez' backfield, LQ,

835
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:54,360
Speaker 1: but it just that doesn't even seem very satisfying.

836
00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:57,359
Speaker 2: Listen, it's going to be a rental. It's his as

837
00:38:57,400 --> 00:38:59,839
Speaker 2: long as he is staying productive. It's his, as long

838
00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:02,840
Speaker 2: as he's being an effiici and runner the yards before contact.

839
00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:05,399
Speaker 2: He is positive in that area versus where you look

840
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:09,120
Speaker 2: at JCM or Jacory Crossey Merrit, he is in the

841
00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:11,960
Speaker 2: negative realm of in terms of his stuff rate as well,

842
00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:15,080
Speaker 2: so it's like he's not that runner that we thought

843
00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:17,680
Speaker 2: he was in the beginning season. Now Chris Rodriguez is hungry.

844
00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:20,400
Speaker 2: This is a practice squad guy, sniff snip snap. We

845
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 2: saw earlier in the season. They put into pract squad,

846
00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:24,759
Speaker 2: they activated him, then they cut them. It's been like

847
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:26,799
Speaker 2: that for the last two years for him, So he

848
00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:30,080
Speaker 2: is hungry. He is trying to make a statement like, hey,

849
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:32,880
Speaker 2: I can be the RB one or two, whatever you

850
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:34,960
Speaker 2: need me. If you put me in the game, I'm

851
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:37,799
Speaker 2: going to be productive. And that's everything we've seen these

852
00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:40,040
Speaker 2: last two weeks. And I had him as a flex

853
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:41,680
Speaker 2: in one league, and I was a little worried about

854
00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:44,960
Speaker 2: it because we've seen jacm really turn up in some

855
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:46,880
Speaker 2: of these games. The Charges game, I believe it was

856
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,799
Speaker 2: where he was an efficient runner and explosive, and he

857
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:52,040
Speaker 2: kind of just went back to being the RB one.

858
00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,319
Speaker 2: But now Chris Rodriga is two weeks in a row.

859
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:57,080
Speaker 2: He's found the end zone. He's found the opportunity to

860
00:39:57,160 --> 00:39:59,360
Speaker 2: show I can take this job rest of the season.

861
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:03,040
Speaker 2: So for me, I'm putting my chips on Chris Chris Rodriguez,

862
00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:04,520
Speaker 2: you know, for the rest of the season as a

863
00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:06,640
Speaker 2: guy that hey, if you're beat up at the running

864
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:09,200
Speaker 2: back position, he's still available out there on the waiver wire.

865
00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:11,239
Speaker 2: Some folks didn't go out there and get him and

866
00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:14,040
Speaker 2: plug him in the layup matchup against Miami. But I

867
00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 2: would look at j CM as a dropable guy, like

868
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:18,440
Speaker 2: he's nearing that drop zone.

869
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:19,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think.

870
00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:21,000
Speaker 1: I mean at this point, I don't I don't see

871
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:24,359
Speaker 1: any real reason to hang on to j CM. At

872
00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:27,520
Speaker 1: this point. I don't know that I really want any

873
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:30,600
Speaker 1: part of that backfield. But it does seem like tide

874
00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:31,160
Speaker 1: has turned.

875
00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:34,200
Speaker 2: Somebody asked me on my TikTok the other day and

876
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:37,600
Speaker 2: was asking do I drop Tony Pollard or do I

877
00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:42,919
Speaker 2: drop Bill? And I'm like, drop, That's where we're at,

878
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:45,640
Speaker 2: like in the conversation of Bill and Tony Pollard right now,

879
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:47,200
Speaker 2: it's like yes.

880
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:51,239
Speaker 1: By the way, I want to just shout out to

881
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:53,760
Speaker 1: my boy Anthony, who asked me if he should start

882
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:58,319
Speaker 1: Chris Rodriguez or Romeo Dobbs. I told him Dobbs over Rodriguez.

883
00:40:58,360 --> 00:40:59,960
Speaker 1: I think in the end, I think it's like a

884
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:01,399
Speaker 1: difference of like a point and a half, so.

885
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:05,560
Speaker 2: Probably, well Dobbs. These drops, bro you got to stop

886
00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:06,319
Speaker 2: dropping the ball.

887
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:10,160
Speaker 1: He had like drops but like I mean, I think

888
00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:12,120
Speaker 1: Dobbs had like seven and a half points and I

889
00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:15,520
Speaker 1: think I think Rodriguez had like nine. So like it

890
00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:16,279
Speaker 1: wasn't it was.

891
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 3: All my favorite start sick calls when you look back

892
00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:21,040
Speaker 3: on it and it's like, oh, they bolts were bad,

893
00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:22,040
Speaker 3: like we were bad.

894
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:25,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I guess I apologize that. I you know,

895
00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:27,120
Speaker 1: I might have shorted you a point and a half.

896
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:30,040
Speaker 1: So hopefully that makes the difference in your matchup this week.

897
00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:32,239
Speaker 1: I don't know, take a break, come back with, do

898
00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:33,920
Speaker 1: some waiver wire, do some drop zone. As we wrapped

899
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:36,240
Speaker 1: this thing up on here on the NFL Fantasy Football Podcast,

900
00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:43,880
Speaker 1: because I have learned and gotten smarter, I've decided to

901
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:45,440
Speaker 1: put the drop zone ahead of the waiver wire so

902
00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:47,960
Speaker 1: we don't have to end on something negative. So as

903
00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:49,880
Speaker 1: we talk about guys that we are saying goodbye to

904
00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 1: at this point, you're giving us a two for this week, Lakwan.

905
00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:56,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, two for now. I want to start off withvershod Way.

906
00:41:56,560 --> 00:41:59,320
Speaker 2: We spoke about him earlier, just being in the shadows

907
00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:02,040
Speaker 2: of Sean Tucker. I hope the Bucks moving forward. Look

908
00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:04,040
Speaker 2: at what he has put on film and give us

909
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:07,239
Speaker 2: the Bucky in Sean Tucker's show. But now the big one,

910
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 2: Xavier word. A lot of folks are still hard like

911
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:15,840
Speaker 2: pushing back in resistance of dropping him or even trading

912
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:18,800
Speaker 2: him before the deadline. My boy's averaging seven Fantasy points

913
00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:21,319
Speaker 2: for a game since Rashid Rice has been back. We're

914
00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:23,800
Speaker 2: not even seeing one of his strengths on his utility

915
00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:26,399
Speaker 2: belt being utilized because when it comes to that deep ball,

916
00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:29,920
Speaker 2: he only has three completions of twenty plus yards. That

917
00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:32,400
Speaker 2: is the big play that we love from him. Taekwon

918
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:34,879
Speaker 2: Thornton has more than him. My boy is ranked Xavier

919
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:38,120
Speaker 2: Worthy is ranked seventy ninth among wide receivers in terms

920
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:40,959
Speaker 2: of those type of completions. So he's not even being

921
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:43,680
Speaker 2: utilized for what the speeds they're supposed to be doing.

922
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:46,400
Speaker 2: I am not rostering this guy no longer. I'm not

923
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:48,360
Speaker 2: going to be putting him in my flex trying to

924
00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:51,040
Speaker 2: paint this picture that he has this type of you know,

925
00:42:51,320 --> 00:42:53,920
Speaker 2: high ceiling and has somewhat of a safe floor because

926
00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:56,680
Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes is his quarterback. No, no, no, no, Patrick

927
00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:59,960
Speaker 2: Mahomes has flex That deep ball that we saw yesterday

928
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:03,360
Speaker 2: with Taekwon Thorton more often than Xavier Worthy, so he

929
00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:06,160
Speaker 2: has lost his role to where he is just a decoy.

930
00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:08,480
Speaker 2: He is just a speedster decoy that is just going

931
00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:10,920
Speaker 2: to be running a bunch of nine routes and pulling

932
00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:13,640
Speaker 2: safeties where you're going to see Rashid Rice, Taekwon Thornton,

933
00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:17,160
Speaker 2: another fellow Kwan. You know, I love that he's part

934
00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:20,239
Speaker 2: of the Kwan Klan, you know, but uh yeah, I'm

935
00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:22,560
Speaker 2: just pretty much done with xaviery Worthy Man, get him

936
00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:23,200
Speaker 2: off my roster.

937
00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:26,839
Speaker 1: Two games with more than fifty receiving yards this year.

938
00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:29,400
Speaker 3: You know, you want to know who has more Fantasy

939
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:30,439
Speaker 3: Points than him this year?

940
00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:31,000
Speaker 1: Who's that?

941
00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:36,600
Speaker 3: One? Key on Coleman? And then Rashi Rice and Taekwon

942
00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:39,480
Speaker 3: Thornton both have more. Like Rashi Rice has played half

943
00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:42,719
Speaker 3: the games and has more. It's not even close, if

944
00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:44,760
Speaker 3: we're being honest, they're like ten points apart.

945
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:48,480
Speaker 1: Yeesh, Yeah, it's not nice, not great, all right, it's

946
00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:51,759
Speaker 1: Xavier Worthy. Uh maybe it's time to part ways. Who

947
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:53,120
Speaker 1: are you saying goodbye to at this point?

948
00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:56,879
Speaker 3: Florida not as spicy, but he helped us the last

949
00:43:56,920 --> 00:44:00,040
Speaker 3: few weeks. Parker Washington. Uh I streamed him in a

950
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:03,000
Speaker 3: number of leagues the last two three weeks and it

951
00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:05,440
Speaker 3: was a fun ride, but it appears to be coming

952
00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:09,799
Speaker 3: to its end. Just two targets yesterday twenty yards. Jacobe

953
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:13,840
Speaker 3: Myers was much more utilized than him. It sounds like

954
00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:18,279
Speaker 3: Brian Thomas Junior is going to be returning, maybe as

955
00:44:18,320 --> 00:44:21,200
Speaker 3: soon as this next week. So yeah, I think in

956
00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:24,840
Speaker 3: that and Strange could be back soon for them, like

957
00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:27,800
Speaker 3: their starting to get healthier, and I think Parker Washington

958
00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:31,200
Speaker 3: goes back to being a better real life piece than

959
00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:32,000
Speaker 3: fantasy piece.

960
00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:35,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a fun ride for that week or

961
00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:37,560
Speaker 1: two that he was a thing, but yeah, I think

962
00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:41,799
Speaker 1: that's probably probably at an end at this point. For me,

963
00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:45,800
Speaker 1: it's Sruba Hubbard because when Rico Dawells started, you know,

964
00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:48,520
Speaker 1: he got hurt. Then Rico Dawdell started his takeover. But

965
00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:50,520
Speaker 1: even after Hubbard came back, it was kind of like,

966
00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:52,320
Speaker 1: all right, well, maybe he's still gonna get some opportunities.

967
00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:54,359
Speaker 1: He was still playing a decent amount of snaps, right,

968
00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:56,880
Speaker 1: but the last three weeks, this is his snap count

969
00:44:57,200 --> 00:45:02,879
Speaker 1: eleven eleven, fourteen, his rush attempts five, three and four.

970
00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:07,840
Speaker 1: The yards seventeen, fourteen twenty one. That's it. This is

971
00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:12,600
Speaker 1: officially Rico Dawdle's backfield. It's not an offense that is

972
00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:14,440
Speaker 1: going to score a ton of points. This is not

973
00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:17,839
Speaker 1: you know, it's not even Atlanta, right where, Like, you can,

974
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:21,040
Speaker 1: as much as we get frustrated by Tyler Aljeer, he's

975
00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:23,480
Speaker 1: at least getting opportunities to score touchdowns, right, Like, you

976
00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:26,400
Speaker 1: can tell yourself a story where Tyler Aljeer is at

977
00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:28,920
Speaker 1: least a viable option, right. I mean, obviously we know

978
00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:31,120
Speaker 1: Detroit both those guys still very viable. There are a

979
00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:32,880
Speaker 1: lot of places you can look at and say, all right,

980
00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:35,080
Speaker 1: I can see a room for a second running back.

981
00:45:35,239 --> 00:45:38,440
Speaker 1: Caroline is not that place. And so, you know, as

982
00:45:38,520 --> 00:45:40,759
Speaker 1: much as we might have been trying to tell us

983
00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:42,840
Speaker 1: tell ourselves a story the last couple of weeks of

984
00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:46,360
Speaker 1: hey Man Tuba Hubbard, there's still some opportunity there. There's

985
00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:50,520
Speaker 1: not you know, I don't even I guess if you

986
00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:53,239
Speaker 1: have Rico Dwdel you can maybe make a case to

987
00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:55,600
Speaker 1: hang on to Cuba Hubbard as an insurance policy. But

988
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:58,160
Speaker 1: at this point you're getting close to the playoffs, and

989
00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:02,120
Speaker 1: I would rather use that spot on guys that can contribute,

990
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:06,200
Speaker 1: that I know can contribute to me immediately. I don't

991
00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:10,080
Speaker 1: want to waste the spot hoping or wishing or fearing

992
00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:12,160
Speaker 1: I guess is the best term fearing and injury to

993
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:15,160
Speaker 1: someone else. So it's a true hybrid. I just I

994
00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:17,760
Speaker 1: don't see a path forward at this point for him

995
00:46:18,239 --> 00:46:20,680
Speaker 1: in fantasy. So there you go. Those are the guys

996
00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:22,960
Speaker 1: that we are saying goodbye to. So Florio, the flora

997
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:24,839
Speaker 1: is yours on who are folks? Maybe you should check

998
00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:26,279
Speaker 1: out on the waiver wire this week.

999
00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:30,480
Speaker 3: Jacoby Brissett has scored nineteen or more Fantasy points in

1000
00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:32,960
Speaker 3: all five of his starts. He's averaging over twenty one.

1001
00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:36,280
Speaker 1: Yesterday was ugly, though yesterday it was ugly.

1002
00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:38,880
Speaker 3: Two weeks ago it was ugly as well. It's not

1003
00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:41,480
Speaker 3: always pretty. It's more than often than not going to

1004
00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:45,399
Speaker 3: be ugly, but it's effective for fantasy. Bryce Young gets

1005
00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:47,319
Speaker 3: the forty nine ers who I think it's now six

1006
00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:49,920
Speaker 3: of the last seven quarterbacks to face them, and scored nineteen,

1007
00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:52,440
Speaker 3: and then Tyrod Taylor. I don't think he'll be as

1008
00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:55,440
Speaker 3: good of an option as fields fantasy wise, we'll probably

1009
00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:58,440
Speaker 3: get more passing numbers out of him running backs. We

1010
00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:01,440
Speaker 3: spoke about Kenn Gainwell and Annuel Wilson. I think they

1011
00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:04,799
Speaker 3: are the top ads this week. Sean Tucker. The only

1012
00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:07,560
Speaker 3: reason he's out number one is because Bucky Irving is

1013
00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:11,000
Speaker 3: getting closer. Base 'all two in depending on the injury there.

1014
00:47:11,160 --> 00:47:14,760
Speaker 3: Chris Rodriguez LQ spoke about and then some deeper names,

1015
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:17,839
Speaker 3: Taj Spears, Devin Singletary. Singletary got all the goal on work,

1016
00:47:18,320 --> 00:47:20,040
Speaker 3: which I think is notable.

1017
00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:22,480
Speaker 1: You know what, that's how you know Brian Dables not there.

1018
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:27,759
Speaker 3: I did not think of that. That is one hundred

1019
00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:34,000
Speaker 3: percent factual. At receiver Christian look, Dobbs drop and everything.

1020
00:47:34,120 --> 00:47:36,799
Speaker 3: Christian Watson is not right now, so he's up there.

1021
00:47:37,160 --> 00:47:40,359
Speaker 3: Michael Wilson because we don't know when Marvin Harrison Junior

1022
00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:43,560
Speaker 3: is going to be back. Luther Burden, I don't think

1023
00:47:43,560 --> 00:47:46,640
Speaker 3: this got talked about a lot yesterday, but he took

1024
00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:49,080
Speaker 3: over as the wide receiver three for the bear Seed,

1025
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:52,359
Speaker 3: more targets than DJ Moore. I think you want Luther

1026
00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:55,560
Speaker 3: Burden on your teams. And then xavierly get from of

1027
00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:58,799
Speaker 3: the show had a huge day a free defeat. Matt

1028
00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:02,440
Speaker 3: Collins had another a big game on Thursday, and then

1029
00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:05,040
Speaker 3: tight ends Dalton Schultz continues to just be a safe

1030
00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:08,560
Speaker 3: floor option hunter. Henry gets the Bengals next week. That's

1031
00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:11,520
Speaker 3: about all you need to know. A J. Barner, he's

1032
00:48:11,600 --> 00:48:13,359
Speaker 3: up and down, but he has been getting a lot

1033
00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:15,560
Speaker 3: of volume as of late. And then one of your

1034
00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:18,960
Speaker 3: boys o q chigakon Quo gets a good Nation as well.

1035
00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:22,960
Speaker 3: So not the biggest week of waivers, but definitely names

1036
00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:23,839
Speaker 3: that you want to be adding.

1037
00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:26,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's a tough week, and I was putting

1038
00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:28,720
Speaker 1: together my list of sleepers for the week. There weren't

1039
00:48:28,719 --> 00:48:32,160
Speaker 1: a lot of great options, especially at quarterback, because either

1040
00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:36,880
Speaker 1: either it's a good quarterback against a bad defense or

1041
00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:41,640
Speaker 1: a bad quarterback against a good defense. So sleeper quarterbacks

1042
00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:44,880
Speaker 1: were tough. Sleeper tight ends kind of tough. So it's

1043
00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:47,400
Speaker 1: this is a week where you're just you're trusting the guys.

1044
00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:50,239
Speaker 1: You're trusting the players you have, regardless of what the

1045
00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:52,320
Speaker 1: matchup is. OH should be mentioned too. You mentioned Tyrod

1046
00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:55,800
Speaker 1: Taylor in case you haven't folks haven't heard Justin Fields

1047
00:48:55,840 --> 00:49:01,720
Speaker 1: has been benched in New York and so Tyler Taylor, uh,

1048
00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:03,359
Speaker 1: you know, I don't have my uh I can't find

1049
00:49:03,360 --> 00:49:07,040
Speaker 1: my little Ti God statutes I starting lineup.

1050
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:09,520
Speaker 3: The drought ender, as I call him.

1051
00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:12,520
Speaker 1: I can't the drought ender. Yeah, I mean he was

1052
00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:14,759
Speaker 1: the drought ender for the Bills, so he's gonna be

1053
00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:16,920
Speaker 1: the starting quarterback for the Jets. I would assume for

1054
00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:18,160
Speaker 1: the remainder of the season.

1055
00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:20,959
Speaker 3: There's no power strong enough to end the Jets trap.

1056
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:27,000
Speaker 1: Though, unfortunately no, it will continue. It will can the

1057
00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:28,840
Speaker 1: Jets will continue losing games until morale.

1058
00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:31,040
Speaker 2: Their lore and it's just what they are.

1059
00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:34,560
Speaker 1: I mean, you've seen the you've seen you've seen the

1060
00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:37,080
Speaker 1: highlight of Joe Namath running off the field after Super

1061
00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:39,279
Speaker 1: Bowl three, right the pointing the finger in the air.

1062
00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:42,960
Speaker 1: He's based saying one. We're only gonna get one.

1063
00:49:43,800 --> 00:49:47,160
Speaker 3: You know what. It's still calmer though for because Jet

1064
00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:49,000
Speaker 3: fans when they went to those back to back as

1065
00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:52,080
Speaker 3: as someone who grew up in New York, my god,

1066
00:49:52,160 --> 00:49:54,440
Speaker 3: you would have thought they were like Tom Brady and

1067
00:49:54,560 --> 00:49:56,400
Speaker 3: won six rings or something like that.

1068
00:49:56,480 --> 00:50:00,839
Speaker 1: And he was annoying, I mean, and Mark Sanchez got

1069
00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:03,880
Speaker 1: them to back to back AFC Championship games. To them

1070
00:50:04,640 --> 00:50:06,520
Speaker 1: what he's done since then, we don't have to talk

1071
00:50:06,560 --> 00:50:12,200
Speaker 1: about so on that note, time to say, time to

1072
00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:13,759
Speaker 1: put this one down? How to do it for this?

1073
00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:16,279
Speaker 1: In the show the NFL Fantasy Football Podcast, they happy,

1074
00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:18,520
Speaker 1: save it healthy, do good and live well. Enjoy the

1075
00:50:18,600 --> 00:50:48,120
Speaker 1: day's everybody. We'll talk to you again on Wednesday.
