25
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 1: how's it going. Good morning. It's going great as a

26
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,679
Speaker 1: matter of fact, because it's the playoffs. It's winning in now,

27
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 1: winning in it's it's it's win and win and continue.

28
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 1: Can you make it in the Church League? Number one seed? What?

29
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:52,640
Speaker 1: You don't want? A bragger? But I don't know. There's

30
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 1: like some sort of bird noise that we could play

31
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 1: for something like that. But I know you probably have

32
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 1: to pull it up. I'll pull it up. Pull it up.

33
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 1: That's good, that's actually quite good. I've been really practicing

34
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 1: at home. You know. I as a rule, I don't

35
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:10,640
Speaker 1: talk about my teams, and we don't talk about our

36
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:16,080
Speaker 1: own teams here. Um. But I followed my own preseason advice,

37
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:20,360
Speaker 1: like I banked heavily on chiefs um And and I

38
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,240
Speaker 1: just I loved Sae Kwon Barkley. He was my number

39
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,800
Speaker 1: two ranked running back in the preseason. You don't always

40
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 1: get the one seed in the Church League. You can

41
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 1: revel in this one yeah, so I feel good about it.

42
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,239
Speaker 1: But there's no bye week in the charch, oh my gosh,

43
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 1: and so I gotta play this week and my Chiefs

44
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 1: have got to have got the tough match up with

45
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 1: the Ravens. So uh, there's I could very well be

46
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 1: bounced in this one. Speaking of teams that are getting bounced,

47
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: one seed is getting bounced. You know who's gonna bounce them.

48
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: It's Derrick Henry because Derrick Henry is on is on

49
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,520
Speaker 1: these bottom Derrick Henry is on these bottom seeded teams.

50
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,359
Speaker 1: Mostly they didn't get in right, mostly didn't get in

51
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 1: with Henry. But if you did get in, you're a

52
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 1: sixth seed or an eight seed, right, and and you're

53
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 1: in and you're starting Henry. It's it's not a lot

54
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 1: of them, but it's that's the scenario where it happens.

55
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,799
Speaker 1: And those guys are going up against one seeds, it's

56
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,839
Speaker 1: gonna there's gonna be some Derrick Henry bouncing. I don't

57
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 1: think anybody had Derrick Henry in their lineup. In fact,

58
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,079
Speaker 1: I looked it up on Fanball for our Thursday through

59
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:26,799
Speaker 1: Monday slate one. But that's DFS. That's different. But how

60
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 1: many people were A in the playoffs, and B had

61
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,120
Speaker 1: nothing else that they could play. But Derrick Henry going

62
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,839
Speaker 1: up against a Jaguars defense that was really really good

63
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 1: and gave up zero points last week. There there there's

64
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 1: no reason. It was totally unexplicable, but you had you

65
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 1: should have played Henry at all. It was. It was

66
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 1: a sheer desperation play if anybody did play him. But

67
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 1: I asked for screenshots on Twitter at Paul Charchy and

68
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: lots I got lots of screenshots of people proving that,

69
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 1: you know, showing me the live scoring that that proves

70
00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 1: they had him. So Derrick Henry was out there. I know.

71
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: I'm tempted to talk about what to do if you

72
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 1: went against him, but mostly people didn't. And you know,

73
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 1: I think you already know the answer to that to

74
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 1: some degree. Anyway, your your high risk, high reward players,

75
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 1: pour one out for a good season. Really yeah, right,

76
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 1: you're you're probably you're almost certainly cooked. If you can

77
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,280
Speaker 1: come back, if you can, if you can beat Derrick Henry,

78
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 1: that would be awfully impressive one to remember. All right,

79
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 1: let's let's dive into uh dive into the show. You

80
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:26,359
Speaker 1: know the bit we're still continuing with take a chance

81
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,600
Speaker 1: on me, because there are still even though it's the playoffs,

82
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,679
Speaker 1: there are still people that have to find help, especially

83
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 1: at the running back position. With everything that's happened, Uh,

84
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 1: we'll still have three hot questions, will still lightning round.

85
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 1: We're gonna break down fifteen different matchups, beginning with what

86
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:43,239
Speaker 1: should be an epically high scoring game Atlanta at Green

87
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:45,919
Speaker 1: Bay Scott. I see a ton of points coming in

88
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:47,719
Speaker 1: this one, and I think that I think the Packers

89
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:49,840
Speaker 1: are going to uh gonna write the ship a little

90
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,120
Speaker 1: bit here. What do you think? Yeah? I think so too,

91
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:56,480
Speaker 1: especially especially because that Atlanta team is really bad. It's quarterbacks.

92
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,480
Speaker 1: I think their second worst than the season. But I'm

93
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:01,280
Speaker 1: gonna start with the Atlanta side. Uh. Matt Ryan's been

94
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 1: pretty streaky as of late, but he did face like

95
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 1: New Orleans and New Orleans, Dallas and uh, I think

96
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,840
Speaker 1: the other one was Baltimore. Baltimore and Dallas have been

97
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 1: pretty tough recently, so um he has three hundred plus

98
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 1: and five of his last seven. His touchdowns all over

99
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: the map. As I was kind of mentioning, But the

100
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: pack Uh, they have a lot of multiple touchdowns passes

101
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,159
Speaker 1: to nearly every decent quarterback this year. Right, So I

102
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 1: like this a lot from Ryan, and you mentioned the

103
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 1: high scoring aspect. I just want to touch on that. Uh.

104
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 1: The line was originally forty eight. It's already up to

105
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 1: fifty and a half. It's moving on up. So Julio

106
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: was an obvious a for me. The last two times

107
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 1: he faced the Packers were just giant two hundred plus

108
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 1: and one eight yard games, touchdowns in both uh nine

109
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 1: catches eleven, just huge games, so obviously they're Ridley is

110
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 1: kind of a dart throw for me. He's man since

111
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 1: his early season explosion. He's only top scored twice and

112
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 1: only top fifty yards twice. In those two games where

113
00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:59,840
Speaker 1: he hit fifty plus and scored, it took nine targets

114
00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:01,919
Speaker 1: and thirteen targets. I don't know that he gets that

115
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 1: in this one, but he's kind of a dart throw

116
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 1: because it could be a really high scoring affair. A

117
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:10,279
Speaker 1: very soft Sea grade on him. Uh C grade on

118
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:14,480
Speaker 1: Hooper twyna and targets over the last four games is promising.

119
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,160
Speaker 1: Uh it's a resulted in two scores, but he's averaging

120
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 1: less than forty yards in those games, so a little

121
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,479
Speaker 1: bit of PPR upside. Every tight end with seven or

122
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,039
Speaker 1: more targets against the Packers had sixty plus yards. I

123
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 1: don't know that he gets to seven targets. Yeah, dot Hooper,

124
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 1: I had him with a soft Sea grade. I don't

125
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 1: love him in this one, but I could be persuaded

126
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 1: to a bench grade. Honestly, But yeah, tight ends the

127
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 1: way they are this year, I give a C grade.

128
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 1: I have Coleman and Edo on the bench, even in

129
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:43,279
Speaker 1: a high scoring affair. Tevin Coleman has had four yards

130
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,040
Speaker 1: per carry or less in ten games this year. The

131
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 1: last two weeks fourteen carries for fourteen yards. I was

132
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 1: going to mention that it seems like about one point

133
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:55,960
Speaker 1: zero yards per carry. Your your math skills are uncanny, right,

134
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,159
Speaker 1: I didn't even use my calculator. Hey, can you try

135
00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,560
Speaker 1: this one, Keto Smith Over the last two games, eleven

136
00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:08,159
Speaker 1: carries for twenty two yards twice as good? Uh carry

137
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 1: the one track? Where did you get that advocate so fast?

138
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 1: And one nine? Oh you're so close? And it's only

139
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 1: averaging three point two yards per carry on the season.

140
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 1: I don't like them much at all. I think this

141
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 1: is gonna be a full passing game, so they split

142
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 1: just enough for me to bench both on the other sides.

143
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 1: I got a lot of A grades here. I almost

144
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 1: want to say Rogers, Adams, and Aaron Jones are so

145
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 1: obvious I don't need to mention them. But I'm just

146
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 1: gonna say that Falcons are second worst against fantasy quarterbacks

147
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 1: this year. Uh. I think that with McCarthy gone, they

148
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 1: might want on Rogers might want to on load a bit.

149
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones, He's been so good, scored in four straight

150
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 1: games with six touchdowns in those games. Davonte Adams, I mean, yeah,

151
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 1: those are all A grades. I don't even want to

152
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 1: waste my time, on our time on that. So Jimmy Graham,

153
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 1: I'm giving a C grade here. Uh. We had concerned,

154
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 1: but when he broke his thumb, he had a kind

155
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 1: of a matt outing against the Vikings. But last week

156
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 1: he reeled in eight of eleven targets. Atlanta has allowed

157
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 1: fifty plus two tight ends in three the last five.

158
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,080
Speaker 1: I think, I think this is what Graham does this week,

159
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:15,880
Speaker 1: especially in a high schooling affair. I gave him a

160
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 1: SE grade. I've got Aaron Jones at running back for

161
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: Davante Adams at wide receiver. Three, and and Aaron Rodgers

162
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 1: at quarterback three. So you know, I'm fully all those guys.

163
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 1: I spent like thirty seconds on them. That was almost

164
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 1: too much. That was almost too much. I think their

165
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 1: auto starts. All right, let's go. Let's go to another

166
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 1: guy who's normally an auto start, Andrew Luck, but got

167
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:40,200
Speaker 1: shut out last week, and now he gets a good

168
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 1: Houston secondary. Do you like Andrew Luck going up against Houston?

169
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 1: Matt Oh, it's me with the Andrew Luck matchup high?

170
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 1: How's it? Yeah? Funny? You know it's always you chart.

171
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 1: Guess what great I gave Andrew Luck this week? Um bench?

172
00:08:55,280 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: I gave him an A grade? What never ever on

173
00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 1: the same page with Andrew Luck. In Week four, Andrew

174
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 1: Luck had four hundred sixty four yards and four touchdown

175
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 1: passes against the Texans defense. Since then, the Texans have

176
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 1: faced maybe the best group of quarterbacks ever, Dak Prescott,

177
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 1: Nathan Peterman, Blake Bortles, brock Osweiler, case Keenum and then

178
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:24,079
Speaker 1: they broke Alex Smith's leg. And then after breaking Alex

179
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,200
Speaker 1: Smith's leg, they gave up three or three and two

180
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,720
Speaker 1: to Marcus Mariota and three seven and one to Baker Mayfield,

181
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 1: Andrew luck is going to have a good game. He's

182
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 1: back to an a start. He's gonna get right back

183
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,599
Speaker 1: on it. Okay, yeah, he's no. You kind of you

184
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:38,680
Speaker 1: kind of sold me a little bit. I've I have

185
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:40,959
Speaker 1: him ranked twelve at the quarterback position. I've got a

186
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 1: B grade on QB one though it's QB one all right.

187
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 1: Uh t y Hilton, I'm given a B grade two.

188
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 1: He's top seventy seven yards and four straight and has

189
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 1: three games of a hundred and fifteen yards or more

190
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 1: in his last four meetings with the Texans, with three

191
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,440
Speaker 1: touchdowns to go along with that. A shoulder injury had

192
00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:59,520
Speaker 1: him miss practice most of the week. He is a

193
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 1: game to time decision, but he did practice on Friday,

194
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 1: so I think Hilton's gonna go. Eric Ebron he gets

195
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,000
Speaker 1: an A grade. He was sick earlier in the week

196
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,959
Speaker 1: and he missed some practice time. He had sixteen targets

197
00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 1: last week, and it's one of those rare occurrences when

198
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 1: two players are splitting a position and one goes down

199
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 1: that the other player actually gets all of the work.

200
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 1: Eric Ebron is getting everything that Jack Doyle had, and

201
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 1: Houston is awful versus the tight end bottom eight rankings

202
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:27,880
Speaker 1: and receptions, yards and scores to the tight end. I

203
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 1: love Ebron this week. I do a lot running games

204
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 1: on the bench. Though Mac only had eight carries, Hines

205
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:36,079
Speaker 1: had four last week against the Jags, and that was

206
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 1: a Jags team that just got torched by Derrick Henry. Right.

207
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,680
Speaker 1: They couldn't get it going right and Derrick Henry ken Uh.

208
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,840
Speaker 1: So the Colts are on the bench for the running game.

209
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 1: Over on the Texans side, Lamar Miller he gets a

210
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: C grade. The Colts haven't allowed a running back to

211
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 1: top eighty one yard since Week five. That's seven games,

212
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 1: and in those seven games, only two running backs have

213
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 1: scored on the ground, and Miller had an underwhelming forty

214
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:01,559
Speaker 1: nine yards in the first meeting on fifteen. Ari's Deshaun

215
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:04,720
Speaker 1: Watson's getting a B grade. He had his first thirty

216
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 1: passing attempt outing since Week five. Charches probably excited about that. Yeah.

217
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 1: Uh And the Colts guess what, they faced a very

218
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 1: similar schedule of quarterbacks. That's why they look good. It's ridiculous. Kessler, Tannehill, Gabbert, Bortles,

219
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 1: car Derek Anderson, and Sam Donald are the last seven

220
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 1: they faced. You can't. If I asked you to put

221
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 1: such string together the seven worst opposing quarterbacks in the NFL,

222
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 1: you'd have the last seven teams the Colts of face.

223
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 1: The a f C South got all the bad quarterbacks.

224
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:38,200
Speaker 1: So uh yeah, Watson had three seventy five, two through

225
00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:40,080
Speaker 1: the air and one on the ground in the first meeting,

226
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,200
Speaker 1: so he's a B grade. DeAndre Hopkins easy a last

227
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 1: six games against the Colts, he's averaging a hundred and

228
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:49,480
Speaker 1: four yards. However, da Marius Thomas and Kiki Cutie, I

229
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 1: got them both on the bench. The Colts are top

230
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 1: ten in receptions, yards and touchdowns allowed to the wide

231
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:58,080
Speaker 1: receiver position. Yeah, because they're facing Sam Donald and playing Gabbard,

232
00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 1: And yeah that's true. They've only allowed a hunt thirty

233
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:02,440
Speaker 1: two yards in a score per game. And that's about

234
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 1: what DeAndre Hopkins should kit in this game. So there's

235
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,120
Speaker 1: not a lot to go around for the rest of

236
00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,679
Speaker 1: the guy's son Leavin, Thomas and Cutie on the bench. Alright,

237
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 1: final matchup of this the opening segment is uh at

238
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:17,720
Speaker 1: one that should cause great consternation for Chiefs owners. It

239
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:20,599
Speaker 1: is the Ravens versus the Chiefs. Let's start on the

240
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,600
Speaker 1: Ravens side. Lamar Jackson gets a B grade. Over the

241
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 1: last three starts, he has scored the fourth most Fantasy

242
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:31,600
Speaker 1: points among quarterbacks, despite the fact that Lamar Jackson has

243
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:36,320
Speaker 1: thrown one touchdown. That tells you the power of rushing

244
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 1: when you are an extremely good rushing quarterback like Lamar Jackson.

245
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:42,559
Speaker 1: Um one of these weeks is gonna throw a couple

246
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 1: of touchdowns and just post a monster game. And it

247
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 1: could be this week considering that seven there's seven touchdowns

248
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 1: that the Chiefs defense has allowed over the last two weeks.

249
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: So maybe Lamar Jackson throws two here and he ends

250
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:55,600
Speaker 1: up doing what he always does on the ground and

251
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:58,160
Speaker 1: then monster week coming. But I think he's safely a

252
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:01,439
Speaker 1: B grade no matter what, because the rushing almost insures

253
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 1: fifty six yards seems like an automatic and I don't

254
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 1: know how he falls below a B grade unless they

255
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 1: absolutely shut down the rushing. Fish and I were pondering

256
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:13,840
Speaker 1: who which team might equal Derrick Henry's two thirty eight

257
00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 1: rushing yards this week as a team as a team,

258
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 1: and Baltimore was the one that kind of came to

259
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,320
Speaker 1: be with Jackson and the gust Bush. They could who

260
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:25,839
Speaker 1: was Guss I'll take that as my transition. This is

261
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:29,200
Speaker 1: a B grade averaging twenty rushing attempts per game with

262
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:32,320
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson in the lineup. Uh, he doesn't catch me passes,

263
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 1: so he's not gonna help you through the air. But

264
00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter. Posing backs of top eighty five rushing

265
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 1: yards and five of the last six against the Chiefs.

266
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:39,839
Speaker 1: So if you figure Gus is gonna go eighty five,

267
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,280
Speaker 1: maybe a hundred, then now I'll give you another hundred

268
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 1: plus ab Lamar Jackson. Then there's there's your Derrick Henry game.

269
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:48,320
Speaker 1: Yeah maybe that, maybe it comes together there. But there's

270
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 1: one other running back to start for the Ravens. There is.

271
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:55,480
Speaker 1: There is Tie Montgomery. Yeah, he posted five catches last week.

272
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,439
Speaker 1: And the Chiefs are allowing the most receiving yards to

273
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 1: running backs, the most re seeving touchdowns and running backs,

274
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 1: and the third most receptions to running backs. If only

275
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,280
Speaker 1: somebody would have told you to pick him up like

276
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 1: two weeks two weeks ago, and like a prematurely speculatory

277
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:14,240
Speaker 1: kind of way. Oh yeah, that was a was a

278
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,079
Speaker 1: matter of fact. Everybody else in the passing games on

279
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,160
Speaker 1: the bench Brown, Crabtree, Snead all been a disaster under

280
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. Combined, they have scored combined the three guys,

281
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:28,560
Speaker 1: they have one touchdown in the last five weeks. So

282
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 1: it's not even just Lamar Jackson. That's including a couple

283
00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 1: of games with Joe Flacco in there. Get this, none

284
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 1: of top fifty eight yards in five weeks either. If

285
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,840
Speaker 1: you had the ability to start all three Baltimore wide

286
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 1: receivers as one player, they still would you do it.

287
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 1: They would together, they'd have a sea grade. Uh, let's

288
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:48,680
Speaker 1: go to the Kansas City side, and this is the

289
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 1: area of consternation for fantasy owners. I still have an

290
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 1: A grade on Patrick Mahomes. You're going to start Mahomes,

291
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 1: Kelsey and Hill flat out going to start them. I

292
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 1: totally get it. But let's just talk about what they're

293
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 1: up against. Sense Jimmy Smith's returned from suspension way back

294
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 1: in Week five. The average quarterback line against the Ravens

295
00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 1: one hundred nine five yards and one point four touchdowns.

296
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 1: That's half of what we're used to getting from Patrick

297
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:18,000
Speaker 1: Mahomes in any given game. The Ravens secondary doesn't have

298
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 1: any glaring areas to exploit their solid every place, so

299
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 1: I don't you know, you still have to start my

300
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 1: homes and nobody be surprised if he had a three

301
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 1: touchdown game here in three yards, but that would be

302
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 1: a total aberration against the Ravens. Let's go to the

303
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 1: other obvious place, Travis Kelsey obvious a. The tight end defense, though,

304
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 1: was the only real weakness for the Ravens defense. They've

305
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 1: given up five touchdowns in the last six games to

306
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 1: tight ends. Kelsey is the safest play out of the

307
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 1: big name guys. Tyreek Hill B grade. This is an

308
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 1: excellent Baltimore secondary that's only a lot of four touchdowns

309
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 1: to wide receivers since Week two. Allow me to repeat

310
00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:59,320
Speaker 1: that four touchdowns to wide receivers since Week two for

311
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 1: the Rains. That's unbelievable. Uh. Tyreek Hill runs from all

312
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 1: over the field, but most commonly from the slot, where

313
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 1: he'll draw coverage from Ravens cornerback Brandon Carr, who's allowed

314
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 1: at least seventy six yards and two of his last

315
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 1: four games. So there's an angle there. Uh. We'll give

316
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill a B grade here. Chris Conley will likely

317
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 1: get to start with Watkins hurt, but it's a brutal matchup,

318
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:21,400
Speaker 1: and you're not gonna go all the way down to

319
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 1: Chris Connley. Here, let's talk about Spencer Wear. I know

320
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 1: everybody ran too the waiver wire to pick him up.

321
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 1: He looked Mundane let Us two weeks ago, he looked

322
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:31,080
Speaker 1: Mundane last week, and then he's got an elite Baltimore

323
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 1: run defense here, allowing just sixty five rushing yards per games,

324
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:37,760
Speaker 1: second lowest. They're giving up three point four yards per carry,

325
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:41,000
Speaker 1: also second lowest. Only one runner is top sixty four

326
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 1: yards since Week two against Baltimore. I really should have

327
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 1: where on the bench, but I'm giving him a C

328
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 1: grade just out of respect for the offense as a

329
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,240
Speaker 1: whole and the fact that he would likely get any

330
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 1: goal line carries were any to become available. I it's

331
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 1: a tough, tough matchup for Spencer Wear. So look, line

332
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 1: short of it is, Chiefs powered you into the playoffs.

333
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 1: There's no guarantee that you're gonna continue. They could power

334
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:09,960
Speaker 1: you right out of the Yes we did. Um, we'll

335
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,680
Speaker 1: take a break when we come back. Plenty more matchups

336
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:16,240
Speaker 1: to get to, including New England taking on Miami Patriots.

337
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:19,800
Speaker 1: Inexplicably always struggle in this situation. We'll tell you what

338
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 1: to expect from Tom Brady, his receivers, and especially the

339
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 1: various running backs of the Patriots when we come back.

340
00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 1: This is Fantasy Football Weekly, presented by green Bell Premium

341
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 1: on the fan Take a chance. I mean nine players

342
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 1: not normally in your starting line up, many of whom

343
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 1: are available on the waiver wire. We begin at the

344
00:17:56,920 --> 00:18:01,520
Speaker 1: quarterback position. Scott, we got uh well this week, I

345
00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,640
Speaker 1: got Jamis Winston. I think it's a great matchup for him.

346
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,399
Speaker 1: He has multiple touchdowns in three straight. And the Bucks,

347
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:09,080
Speaker 1: I don't know if you know this, They have the

348
00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:11,399
Speaker 1: most passing yards as a team in the end in

349
00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:15,160
Speaker 1: NFL history through which do you mean? They have the wait,

350
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,280
Speaker 1: the defense has yielded the most. No. Buccaneers have passed

351
00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:22,160
Speaker 1: for the most yards him plus Fitzpatrick in NFL history

352
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,879
Speaker 1: through Wow, I didn't know that they've actually been on

353
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 1: that street for a few weeks. And they've been. They've

354
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 1: benched their starting quarterbacks how many times this year? And

355
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:32,760
Speaker 1: they're setting the all time NFL record in passing yards combined.

356
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 1: They set a record in interceptions to the Saints have

357
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 1: allowed the second most passing yards this year allowed to

358
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 1: quarterbacks bucks will be thrown from behind. I think so Winston,

359
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:48,000
Speaker 1: it's my quarterback, alright, Matt, I've got Baker Mayfield. The

360
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 1: Panthers defense has absolutely fallen apart over the last five weeks,

361
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:55,320
Speaker 1: resulting in four losses for their team. They've allowed fourteen

362
00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:57,679
Speaker 1: passing touchdowns in that span and an average of two

363
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:00,520
Speaker 1: seventy five yards per game. And since we through the

364
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,639
Speaker 1: Freddie kitchen sink at Baker Mayfield, he's been pretty decent

365
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:07,359
Speaker 1: multiple scores and five of his last six and the

366
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,440
Speaker 1: sixth was last week when he only threw for one

367
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 1: touchdown but Tali three seven yards. I'm going with Josh

368
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 1: Allen against the Jets. And this is the same Josh

369
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:21,640
Speaker 1: Allen who is the highest scoring quarterback in Fantasy football

370
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:23,679
Speaker 1: over the last two weeks. It might have been my

371
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 1: tick on list. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. Go ahead,

372
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,440
Speaker 1: look you earned it. He saw that he has more

373
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:35,600
Speaker 1: top five finishes as a fantasy player per week than

374
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:38,199
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers does this this year. I'm starting him in

375
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 1: the fantasy playoffs. Is my second quarterback and the homes

376
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,600
Speaker 1: Josh Allen one of my leaks. Get this His two

377
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:47,960
Speaker 1: hundred twenty four rushing yards the last two weeks is

378
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 1: topped by only four running backs. It's unbelievable when he's

379
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 1: bringing on the ground and it's a game against the Jets.

380
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:58,680
Speaker 1: So even if the legs don't help him, help you out,

381
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 1: the arm will. The Jets are allowed multiple passing touchdowns

382
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:05,440
Speaker 1: and eight of the last nine games addition by subtraction

383
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 1: to get Calvin Benjamin off the field. So I like

384
00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:11,040
Speaker 1: Josh Allen on the ground through the air, he could

385
00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 1: have another game. He could have another top yet another

386
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:16,600
Speaker 1: in a series of well now to uh games since

387
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 1: the elbow injury. Coming back from the elbow injury with

388
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 1: a top performance, let's go to the running back position. Scott,

389
00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 1: I need to apologize to our listeners out there because

390
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:25,960
Speaker 1: I failed you last week. I had it in my

391
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:28,760
Speaker 1: notes in the forty Niners matchup to tell you to

392
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,200
Speaker 1: pick up Jeff Wilson. I did in all my leagues,

393
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:33,680
Speaker 1: and I I failed our listeners. That's what I did.

394
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,120
Speaker 1: Do you have It's just a app there's a definition

395
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:39,120
Speaker 1: of a humble brag. Yeah it really is. You knew it,

396
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:43,000
Speaker 1: but you didn't tell anybody failed to tell anybody. Uh,

397
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 1: but man does he has. He had twenty three touches

398
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,200
Speaker 1: last week, turned into a hundred and thirty four yards

399
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 1: niners a plane from behind a lot. He had eight

400
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 1: catches for seventy three. Those eight receptions are the most

401
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:57,040
Speaker 1: by San Francisco running back in a game this season,

402
00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,640
Speaker 1: which is crazy. But he's gonna get so much volume

403
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,040
Speaker 1: that I think he's a great start this week. All right,

404
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:05,320
Speaker 1: please go ahead and tweet at Scott Fish twenty four

405
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,720
Speaker 1: a gift of how you feel about this information that

406
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:11,880
Speaker 1: he with her holding any information from our listeners this week. Well,

407
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,640
Speaker 1: I'm going to do it on purpose. Now. Yeah, I've

408
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:17,080
Speaker 1: got Justin Jackson. He only had eight carries in one

409
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,440
Speaker 1: catch last week, but he made it count with eighty

410
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 1: two yards total yards and a score against the Steelers.

411
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 1: Anthony Lynn said during his Tuesday press conference that Austin

412
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 1: Ekeler has been wearing down and he's an important part

413
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:31,479
Speaker 1: of the special team. So he's a little tired, and

414
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 1: you'd also see an increase in Justin Jackson and possibly

415
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:38,800
Speaker 1: Detre's Newsome this week. Eckler was the clear lead back

416
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:42,439
Speaker 1: last week with thirteen carries and eight targets. But I

417
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 1: think Jackson is going to be the lead carrier this week.

418
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,200
Speaker 1: The Bengals are a packing it in for the season

419
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 1: as everybody is hurt and they've lost six to the

420
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:52,480
Speaker 1: last seven and be really terrible against the running back,

421
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 1: allowing the most total yards per game to the running

422
00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,560
Speaker 1: back position. The Chargers could use this as a pseudo

423
00:21:57,640 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 1: rest week for Ekeler, so we could see a ton

424
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:03,160
Speaker 1: of Justin Jackson. Oh absolutely, I like him a lot.

425
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:05,320
Speaker 1: This week. I've got Last week, I gave you La

426
00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:08,840
Speaker 1: Garrett Blunt and he ended up with like sixty rushing yards,

427
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:12,639
Speaker 1: did not score. This week, I'm giving you La Garrett

428
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:17,159
Speaker 1: Blunt again, really going because it worked out so well

429
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,159
Speaker 1: last week. But here's the thing. If you give me

430
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:22,959
Speaker 1: two chances at any take a chance on me, I

431
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 1: will come through for you. And so will Garrett Blunt

432
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 1: this week because he goes up against Arizona. Fast forward

433
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 1: to Churches chance, Garrett Blood, Carrie and Johnson has been

434
00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:34,720
Speaker 1: ruled out, so you know Blunt's going to see the

435
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:36,879
Speaker 1: majority of the work. It will get the goal line carries.

436
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:39,560
Speaker 1: He's averaged a respectable four and a half yards per

437
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 1: carry the last two weeks without Johnson in the Cardinals, though,

438
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:44,439
Speaker 1: it's all about the matchup. The Cardinals give up the

439
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 1: most rushing attempts, the third most rushing yards, and the

440
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:51,760
Speaker 1: most rushing touchdowns per game in the league. So it's

441
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 1: such a juicy matchup. If you take on Blunt against

442
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,159
Speaker 1: uh I believe they played Minnesota the last week and

443
00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 1: Buffalo the week that to be impressive. So he's averaging

444
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:05,679
Speaker 1: eighteen carries per game when Carrie on Johnson's gone that

445
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:10,040
Speaker 1: kind of volume against these Cardinals virtually automatic. Let's go

446
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:12,959
Speaker 1: to the receiver position, Scott, second week in a row,

447
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with a Buffalo wide receiver. So this

448
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 1: is really scary for me. But as Charge preaches at

449
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:22,520
Speaker 1: training camp about the inside the five numbers, opportunity opportunities

450
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:24,840
Speaker 1: a big deal. Z A. Jones is third in the

451
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:28,000
Speaker 1: NFL into his team's target share, putting him in within

452
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:31,240
Speaker 1: the likes of Keenan Now and Kenny Golladay, Travis Kelsey, Kittle,

453
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:35,240
Speaker 1: Adams Beckham, digs Hill, etcetera. He gets a ton of

454
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:37,880
Speaker 1: his team's work. He has three touchdowns in the last

455
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 1: three weeks. The Bill's just released Kelvin Benjamin and Andre Holmes.

456
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,600
Speaker 1: So that's gonna three up like three targets again. And

457
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:47,520
Speaker 1: remember just a couple of weeks ago against this same

458
00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:50,920
Speaker 1: Dolphins team, four for sixty seven and two touchdowns. Oh yeah,

459
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 1: and he's going up against buster screen. Yeah that helps

460
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,560
Speaker 1: the busted screen. Let's go, so, j z A Jones,

461
00:23:56,640 --> 00:24:00,160
Speaker 1: z A Jones, Matt your receiver. Some people might need

462
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,360
Speaker 1: a little help at the tight end position because it's

463
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:04,400
Speaker 1: been a waste land this year. That's why I've got

464
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:07,920
Speaker 1: Ian Thomas, who takes over for and injured Greg Olsen.

465
00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:10,879
Speaker 1: It's worth noting that Thomas has had at least five

466
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 1: targets in each of the last three games that Greg

467
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:16,680
Speaker 1: Olsen did not start and finish. He caught all five

468
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 1: of those targets last week for forty six yards. And

469
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:21,639
Speaker 1: it's a good matchup for Thomas. The Browns have allowed

470
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,240
Speaker 1: Austin Hooper and Jordan Thomas to score against them in

471
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 1: the last three games, and big time tight ends like

472
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:30,040
Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey and Jared Cook each scored twice against the

473
00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 1: Browns earlier in the year. So Ian Thomas, if they're

474
00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 1: gonna catch some touchdowns, might be him, all right. And

475
00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:39,760
Speaker 1: my final guy, Trey Kwon Smith. And I know a

476
00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:43,080
Speaker 1: lot of you have played tray Kwon Smith exactly wrong

477
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:46,439
Speaker 1: over the last month. Started him for zero to his

478
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:48,920
Speaker 1: zero catch get you didn't start him for the Washington

479
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 1: game when he went berserk. Then you start him the

480
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:56,399
Speaker 1: next and then you've started him the next week and

481
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:58,439
Speaker 1: he gave you zero catches, and then you benched him

482
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 1: the next week, and it's Thanksgiving and he posts ted

483
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:03,439
Speaker 1: catches hundred six yards in a touchdown. So then you

484
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,160
Speaker 1: put it back in your line up the next week

485
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 1: and you got zero and got hurt. And so now

486
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 1: we're back. Tray Kuan Smith is starting against the Buccaneers.

487
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:13,439
Speaker 1: Is it gonna be all or is it going to

488
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 1: be nothing? Tampa's allowed the second most wide receiver touchdowns

489
00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 1: eighteen of them, including touchdowns in every single game this year.

490
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 1: And the guy tray Kuan Smith replaced Ted Kin also

491
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,399
Speaker 1: a straight line speed guy, just like Drake Won Smith

492
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:32,400
Speaker 1: scored in this matchup against Tampa in Week one. Tray

493
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 1: Kuan Smith the ultimate all or nothing guy. That's our

494
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,640
Speaker 1: final take a chance on me this week. It's like, Ohtown,

495
00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:44,200
Speaker 1: Tom Brady has been ice cold Matt and he has

496
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:46,800
Speaker 1: average over the last five weeks, he's averaging less than

497
00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,639
Speaker 1: one touchdown pass. There's a fish game, so ok I

498
00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 1: was gonna, I was gonna pass it to Fish. Okay,

499
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:55,560
Speaker 1: Scott averaging less than one touchdown pass per game. He

500
00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:58,760
Speaker 1: has failed to finish higher than QB in any game

501
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 1: for five straight weeks. Tom Brady, do you like him

502
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:06,320
Speaker 1: against Miami in Miami? Oh? Man, in Miami. I'm sure

503
00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:08,119
Speaker 1: you already know this, but he's one in four in

504
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,880
Speaker 1: his last five games, hasn't top two hundred fift yards,

505
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:15,400
Speaker 1: only seven touchdowns in those five games in Miami. So

506
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:17,679
Speaker 1: I had him as a B grade, but as I

507
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:19,359
Speaker 1: think about it, I think I'm lowering him down to

508
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:24,159
Speaker 1: a C grade here. Uh he should still do fair, okay,

509
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:27,840
Speaker 1: just barely startable, but man, yeah, he's been ice cold.

510
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:30,600
Speaker 1: I do. I do like his uh, some of his

511
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:34,200
Speaker 1: position players, though with no Xavien Howard, I like Josh Gordon.

512
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,679
Speaker 1: Over the last six games, he's averaging eighty yards per

513
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:39,680
Speaker 1: game in over nineteen yards per catch, which you can

514
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:41,640
Speaker 1: do the math, and that means he's averaging about four

515
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:44,159
Speaker 1: catches the game. But with no Zavian Howard, I like

516
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:46,720
Speaker 1: the matchup I gave him a B. They also gave

517
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,800
Speaker 1: Edlman a B as well in that same span, averaging

518
00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:53,439
Speaker 1: six catches per game. Uh, but only about seventy yards.

519
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 1: But in PPR leagues that's getting it done, So I'm

520
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:59,400
Speaker 1: giving him a B grade. Gronk also a B grade

521
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:02,719
Speaker 1: because he's be come very touchdown dependent. Luckily, the Dolphins

522
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 1: have allowed seven tight end touchdowns in the last seven weeks,

523
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 1: including multiple to Ebron, Jordan Thomas, and Michael Roberts, so

524
00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 1: I think Gronk might be able to get it done

525
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 1: in the red zone here. Charles Clay was the only

526
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:18,040
Speaker 1: bad game in those last seven weeks for against the Dolphins,

527
00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:21,679
Speaker 1: so B grade there. Sony Michelle, I'm giving him an

528
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,000
Speaker 1: A grade. He has over twenty touches per game since

529
00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:28,280
Speaker 1: returning from injury, and before McCoy crap the bad last week.

530
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:31,080
Speaker 1: The previous five who we argued about our B grade.

531
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,119
Speaker 1: That the way the previous five running backs to have

532
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:37,680
Speaker 1: eighteen and more touches top two total yards against the Dolphins,

533
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:40,159
Speaker 1: I think that's in the range. For Michelle. I have

534
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 1: Burkehead on the bench because he only had nine touches

535
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 1: last week. What worries me here is White. I still

536
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,120
Speaker 1: gave him a B grade because he's so PPR dependent.

537
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:52,840
Speaker 1: But without Burkehead he was averaging forty five snaps per game.

538
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:56,000
Speaker 1: Down he's averages thirty two snaps a game with burke

539
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,080
Speaker 1: Head in as evidence by thirty three last week. Burkehead

540
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:03,199
Speaker 1: replaces him, not Michelle. So that's the PPR upside, is

541
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 1: why I'd still give him a nice safe PPR floor.

542
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,840
Speaker 1: So I barely give him a beat on the dolphin side.

543
00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:12,320
Speaker 1: I don't like anything except from maybe a dart throw

544
00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:16,040
Speaker 1: on Kenny Stills, because eight percent of Stills receptions have

545
00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 1: come from Tannehill. He has four out of five touchdowns

546
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:23,800
Speaker 1: have come from Tannehill. Uh, it's a touchdown. It's almost

547
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:29,480
Speaker 1: a touchdown dependent girl. So yeah, so okay, it's a

548
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 1: spin of the wheel or a name from the hat

549
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:34,359
Speaker 1: or whatever. But barely a sea grade on Sills. But

550
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:37,520
Speaker 1: I'm mentioned everything else, all right. I like that angle. Carolina.

551
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 1: We'll take on Cleveland when we come back. We'll talk

552
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 1: about Cam Newton, who has thrown exactly two touchdowns and

553
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 1: nine of his last ten games, will he throw exactly

554
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 1: two touchdowns? Find out when we return. This is Fantasy

555
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:53,920
Speaker 1: Football Weekly presented my Green Bell Premium on the Van

556
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:01,960
Speaker 1: Welcome Back Fantasy Football Weekly on the Fan, Paul Church

557
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 1: and Scott Fish Matt Harrison with you. It is yeah, high, Scott,

558
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 1: I can confirm people are sending me Jeff's now because

559
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 1: of gifts. Gifts. I giff, Jeff is the peanut butter.

560
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:17,280
Speaker 1: That's clearly a Jeff pi F. That's fine, So I

561
00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:23,040
Speaker 1: like Giff. I'm fine with. However, Standford graphic interface not

562
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:28,880
Speaker 1: graffic file something. Yeah, yeah, correct, Yeah, that's You're exactly right.

563
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:31,840
Speaker 1: The guy who invented calls the Jeff, so that's what

564
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:33,560
Speaker 1: I and then and then he gets to say it's

565
00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 1: an old CompuServe format. By the way, anyway, Carolina takes

566
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 1: on Cleveland, Matt and in a statistical anomaly I may

567
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:47,960
Speaker 1: never see again, Cam Newton is thrown exactly two touchdowns

568
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 1: and nine of his last ten games nine times, nine times,

569
00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:58,240
Speaker 1: nine times. How does that happen? You can't you can't

570
00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 1: make it happen. It's unbelievable. Well, if you need three

571
00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:02,960
Speaker 1: touchdowns from Cam Newton, he will give you two. Well,

572
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 1: if you need one, he will give you two. He's

573
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 1: the Leroy Horde of quarterbacks. Maybe he could throw like

574
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 1: five touchdowns in any given game, but he's throttling it

575
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 1: back and just just stop at the two. That's right.

576
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,960
Speaker 1: I don't want to set expectations too high. I gave

577
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,200
Speaker 1: him an A grade this week. The Browns have faced

578
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:22,520
Speaker 1: a few running quarterbacks this year. Uh, They've been pretty

579
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:25,480
Speaker 1: successful for the most part. Deshaun Watson had the least

580
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,640
Speaker 1: success with two and one passing and only thirty on

581
00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,840
Speaker 1: the ground, but Jeff Driscoll had one fifty five and

582
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:34,560
Speaker 1: one through the air and one on the ground against

583
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 1: the Browns in about a half of play. By the way,

584
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:41,120
Speaker 1: Mahomes had three seventy five and three. Jamis Winston had three.

585
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 1: He had a rushing score as well as to go

586
00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:47,840
Speaker 1: along with fifty five rushing yards. So yeah, Cam's a

587
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,400
Speaker 1: good start. So is Christian McCaffrey. He's an A grade.

588
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 1: He's their best receiver. Uh. D J. Moore, I'm giving

589
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,800
Speaker 1: a C grade two. He's the only other receiver I

590
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:57,800
Speaker 1: have a starting grade on besides I and Thomas. Who's

591
00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 1: might take a chance on me player? Uh uh? When

592
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:03,719
Speaker 1: funis returned. It's good that Morris targets didn't dry up.

593
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 1: He still had eight. It only converted to four for

594
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,800
Speaker 1: forty four last week, though more and forty six routes. Well,

595
00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,719
Speaker 1: Curtis Samuel ran forty one and Devin Funcius only ran

596
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 1: twenty two. Yeah, there's a lot of steam behind Samuel.

597
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,720
Speaker 1: There are a lot of people think Samuel's become borderline

598
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:22,600
Speaker 1: every week starter. Guy end Yeah, I was thinking Samuel's

599
00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 1: for a second, Samuels, Curtis Samuel, Yeah, Moore is the

600
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 1: only one I want to start. UH. On the other side,

601
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,840
Speaker 1: Nick Chubb, I'm giving a B grade two UH. Panthers

602
00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:34,680
Speaker 1: have been pretty good against the run. They have not

603
00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:37,120
Speaker 1: allowed run at the top one hundred yards since Week two,

604
00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:39,840
Speaker 1: but they have allowed a rushing touchdown to a back

605
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:42,960
Speaker 1: in four straight games. And Nick Chubb's getting all the work,

606
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:46,280
Speaker 1: which means Duke Johnson's on the bench because someone called

607
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 1: Dontrelle Hilliard had more targets and receptions than Duke last week,

608
00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:52,840
Speaker 1: and he was only good in those two games against

609
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:55,640
Speaker 1: Kansas City in al Ah. That was it. We thought.

610
00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 1: We all thought Duke could sort of turned the corner.

611
00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:01,640
Speaker 1: He's getting dropped in my leaves understandably, so Baker Mayfield

612
00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:03,520
Speaker 1: was might take a chance on the quarterback, I'd give

613
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:06,280
Speaker 1: him a B grade this week. Jarvis Landry is also

614
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 1: getting a B. Last week I told you to start

615
00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:11,720
Speaker 1: wide receiver Adam Humphreys against the Panthers. They've all been

616
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:16,280
Speaker 1: terrible and slot coverage the whole season. Well, let's talk

617
00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry though. Where this match. Tyler Boyd, Tyler Lockett,

618
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 1: Juju Sterling Shepherd, Cole Beasley, and Humphries twice all had

619
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,160
Speaker 1: big days against captain Munterlin. So Landry's a B. Uh.

620
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:30,800
Speaker 1: Antonio Callaway kind of a C grade as well. I

621
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,560
Speaker 1: like him. He'll line up against James Bradberry, who's allowed

622
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:36,320
Speaker 1: the most yardage in the league to opposing wide receivers.

623
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 1: Uh Callaway fumbled at the goal line on a seventy

624
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:42,360
Speaker 1: one last last week, so he was really really close

625
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:46,080
Speaker 1: to a huge, huge day. Uh David Joku also giving

626
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:48,760
Speaker 1: a B grade. Two. Good spot for in Joku facing

627
00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:52,400
Speaker 1: the Panther's defense that's bottom eight in receptions and yards

628
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,200
Speaker 1: allowed to touch downs or two tight ends, and they've

629
00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 1: allowed the most tight end touchdowns on the season. My

630
00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,720
Speaker 1: previous matchup had an elite offense Kansas City going up

631
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:05,600
Speaker 1: against a great defense. This one another elite offense, the

632
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:08,680
Speaker 1: Rams going up against the great defense Chicago, and this

633
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 1: one got flex to the Sunday night game. This is

634
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:13,640
Speaker 1: your Sunday Night game, uh, and deservedly so this is

635
00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:16,640
Speaker 1: a this is an epic matchup right now. Todd Gurley,

636
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 1: obviously you have to start him, He's an A grade.

637
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,080
Speaker 1: But just know the Bears give up the fewest rushing

638
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,239
Speaker 1: touchdowns and the fews yards per carry, so it's it's

639
00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 1: a brutally tough game. He will do all right through

640
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 1: the air. I think Bears go up the eleventh most

641
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:29,680
Speaker 1: receptions per game to the position, and some other dual

642
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:32,959
Speaker 1: threat runners like David Johnson carry on. Johnson have found

643
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,640
Speaker 1: ways to get into the end zone. So you're obviously

644
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:39,960
Speaker 1: gonna start Todd Gurley. But after that it's all murky. Um.

645
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:42,920
Speaker 1: But let's talk about the The fascinating part about this

646
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:45,640
Speaker 1: for me is Jared Goff because and I've talked about

647
00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:49,120
Speaker 1: this in past shows. In games in which Todd Gurley

648
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,600
Speaker 1: is held to zero or one touchdowns, which the Bears

649
00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:57,960
Speaker 1: will probably do, Jared Goff makes up the difference in

650
00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:02,200
Speaker 1: those Todd Gurley, those modest Todd Gurley games. Jared goff

651
00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:08,000
Speaker 1: averages three hundred fifty three yards and three touchdown passes.

652
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,560
Speaker 1: The hope is that he can continue to do that. Here,

653
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:13,120
Speaker 1: I've got him with a B grade because I don't

654
00:34:13,160 --> 00:34:15,839
Speaker 1: know that he can get to those numbers against the Bears. Um.

655
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 1: The Bears get so much pressure on opposing quarterbacks. But

656
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:19,879
Speaker 1: he's got a great offensive line in front of him.

657
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,120
Speaker 1: Let's talk about his receivers. Brandon Cooks with a B

658
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:24,400
Speaker 1: grade because he's gonna see a lot of Kyle Fuller.

659
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:27,240
Speaker 1: Fuller doesn't necessarily the speed to keep up with Cooks,

660
00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:30,040
Speaker 1: but he's technically very sound, and over the last seven games,

661
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:33,760
Speaker 1: Kyle Fuller has allowed averages of just forty one yards

662
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:37,160
Speaker 1: and zero point one touchdowns in his coverage over the

663
00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:40,000
Speaker 1: last seven games. So a tough matchup for Brandon Cooks,

664
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,239
Speaker 1: whom's normally a lock a, goes down to a beat

665
00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 1: and Robert Woods, who I've I loved last week, slumps

666
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:49,440
Speaker 1: down to a C grade. Here he runs out of

667
00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:51,840
Speaker 1: the slot since Cooper Cup's injury. That means he's going

668
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:53,840
Speaker 1: to see a bunch of Bryce Callahan and it is

669
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:57,280
Speaker 1: a tricky matchup against the bears best corner Callahan's allowed

670
00:34:57,320 --> 00:35:00,239
Speaker 1: just one touchdown on the season. He's also given more

671
00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:03,279
Speaker 1: than twenty three yards in his coverage just once in

672
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:07,400
Speaker 1: the past six games. He is an absolute shutdown slot corner.

673
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:10,799
Speaker 1: And I'm nervous about Robert Woods and Josh Reynolds goes

674
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:13,160
Speaker 1: down to the bench. He's had a nice season allowing

675
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 1: uh he's had He has had a good season when

676
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:18,640
Speaker 1: they've asked him to play, but he doesn't get enough looks.

677
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 1: I think it's safer to just leave him on the

678
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:22,360
Speaker 1: bench and a tough matchup. Let's let's go over to

679
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:25,600
Speaker 1: the bare side. Trek Cohen a grade. In the two games,

680
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:29,000
Speaker 1: will Chase Daniel. Cohen was targeted twenty two times, hauling

681
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,120
Speaker 1: a nineteen of them. Uh, Chase Daniel will not be

682
00:35:31,120 --> 00:35:33,160
Speaker 1: your starter here, but it shows him trending the right way.

683
00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:35,400
Speaker 1: The Rams have given up touchdowns to backs through the

684
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:38,399
Speaker 1: air in three the last four games. The Rams run

685
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,560
Speaker 1: defense isn't great, but shifty backs like Aaron Jones and

686
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:43,920
Speaker 1: Alvin Kamer have posted strong games against l A in

687
00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:45,960
Speaker 1: the second half of the season. I love Corto Rick

688
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:48,319
Speaker 1: going in this matchup. I think he's my number nine

689
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:53,960
Speaker 1: running back overall. He is my number running back. He's

690
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 1: my number nine running back. Let's go to the passing game.

691
00:35:56,600 --> 00:36:00,840
Speaker 1: M r Bisky back as a reminder, from week four

692
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,480
Speaker 1: to week eleven, when he was healthy, Mitch dr Whisky

693
00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 1: was Fantasy football second highest scoring quarterback, and he's got

694
00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:10,960
Speaker 1: a lot of upside against an inconsistent RAMS secondary here.

695
00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:13,399
Speaker 1: I will note though, that it keep to leave his back,

696
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 1: and that's a huge change in improvement for the RAMS secondary.

697
00:36:16,680 --> 00:36:19,560
Speaker 1: In three full games with the keep to leave, the

698
00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:22,759
Speaker 1: Rams allowed averages of just two thirteen passing yards and

699
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:26,520
Speaker 1: zero point three passing touchdowns. It's a much better secondary

700
00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:29,600
Speaker 1: with him. Uh, but it's still still I've gotta be

701
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:32,120
Speaker 1: great on Mitch dr Whisky because he was so effective

702
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:34,040
Speaker 1: and the rushing yards that he brings in as well.

703
00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:38,640
Speaker 1: Is number one receivers Allen Robinson Uh. He hopes to

704
00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:41,920
Speaker 1: continue a stretch of four touchdowns in Trabisky's last five starts.

705
00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:44,479
Speaker 1: It's also worth noting that l A has only allowed

706
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:46,640
Speaker 1: one receiver top fifty yards in the four games of

707
00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:49,160
Speaker 1: the keep to leave, so that part working against him still.

708
00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:51,239
Speaker 1: Allen Robinson's the main target for Mitch, and I've got

709
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:53,960
Speaker 1: to be great on him. Taylor Gabriel's got a sneaky

710
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 1: good matchup. You gotta pick your spots with Gabriel, but

711
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:58,760
Speaker 1: I like him here. He'll most frequently match up against

712
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:02,200
Speaker 1: Marcus Peters, arguably most burned quarterback in the cornerback in

713
00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:05,400
Speaker 1: the league. Peters has given up six passing touchdowns in

714
00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:08,000
Speaker 1: his coverage and a pass a rating of one six.

715
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:10,680
Speaker 1: So Taylor Gabriel not normally some of you'd want to start,

716
00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:12,160
Speaker 1: but I think you do here. I've got a C

717
00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:16,040
Speaker 1: grade on him. Trey Burton has been a disaster, but

718
00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:19,560
Speaker 1: in games with Mitch Drabinsky averages forty two receiving yards

719
00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:22,040
Speaker 1: and half a touchdown per game, and in the past

720
00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:26,600
Speaker 1: two games without Drabinsky scoreless fourteen yards. Hopefully Drabinsky comes back.

721
00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:28,839
Speaker 1: It's a little something dumb here. The Rams allowed tight

722
00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:31,520
Speaker 1: ends to average eighties seven receiving yards, so there is

723
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:33,720
Speaker 1: an opportunity for Trey Burton, who gets a C grade.

724
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 1: The last guy that I haven't mentioned and should is

725
00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:38,279
Speaker 1: Jordan Howard. Last week, Howard posted his highest yards per

726
00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:40,239
Speaker 1: carried since Week six. I liked him a lot going

727
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:42,319
Speaker 1: into last week's game, and he finished with an okay game,

728
00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:44,759
Speaker 1: he passed. He passed the eye test in my mind

729
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:48,120
Speaker 1: last week. Straight ahead power backs haven't been very successful

730
00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:50,040
Speaker 1: overall against the Rams, but they have found the end

731
00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:54,120
Speaker 1: zone against the Rams. Rashad Penny Jamal Williams have both

732
00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:56,680
Speaker 1: scored in the past few weeks as straight ahead plotting

733
00:37:56,719 --> 00:38:00,480
Speaker 1: runners like Jordan Howard. A lot there was a meeting matchup,

734
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:04,320
Speaker 1: A lot to be said, meaty, meaty. Uh, let's uh.

735
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 1: I want to work in one more matchup and then

736
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:07,840
Speaker 1: we'll try to get in a call here at New

737
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:11,120
Speaker 1: Orleans taking on Tampa Bay in what what figures to

738
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:14,759
Speaker 1: be a massively highest scoring game. Already told you Trey

739
00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:17,400
Speaker 1: Kwon Smith might take a chance on me one receiver.

740
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:20,160
Speaker 1: What do you think about Drew Breese in this matchup?

741
00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 1: Fifty five and a half over under highest of the week.

742
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:25,520
Speaker 1: So so you nailed that one? Uh? Do I need

743
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:28,640
Speaker 1: to tell you what my number one? Right? Breeze and

744
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:32,120
Speaker 1: Michael Thomas and Alvin Kamara are obvious A starts just

745
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:34,400
Speaker 1: about every week regardless of matchup, and this is a

746
00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:38,719
Speaker 1: great matchup anyway. So I am benching killer Keith Kirkwood.

747
00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:42,399
Speaker 1: I know that he's been pretty safe at six point

748
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:45,240
Speaker 1: five or so points every week for the last few weeks,

749
00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:48,520
Speaker 1: but I got him on the bench. Trey Kwon was

750
00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,800
Speaker 1: your take, hom Dan Arnold, He's hard to trust. Two catches.

751
00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:54,080
Speaker 1: Then he had the forty five yards and a touchdown

752
00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:57,440
Speaker 1: on Thursday on the Thanksgiving game. Two catches last week.

753
00:38:57,440 --> 00:39:00,719
Speaker 1: I'm benching him. Mark Ingram, I'm giving him a B

754
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:04,239
Speaker 1: grade because it's a bottom three defense against fantasy running backs,

755
00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:05,759
Speaker 1: and if they get ahead, maybe he gets a few

756
00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:08,480
Speaker 1: extra touches. The Bucks have allot of whopping hundred and

757
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:11,040
Speaker 1: seventy eight total yards per game to running backs in

758
00:39:11,080 --> 00:39:14,120
Speaker 1: the last three games, including three h yard rushers. Camaron

759
00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:15,960
Speaker 1: was gonna get a lot, but Ingram should be fairly

760
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,839
Speaker 1: startable with a B grade. On the Tampa Bay side,

761
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:21,480
Speaker 1: Winston was my take. Hom really like him a lot

762
00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:26,719
Speaker 1: this week against terrible Saints past defense, and because of that,

763
00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:29,960
Speaker 1: I like Evans. He had a huge game week one,

764
00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:34,040
Speaker 1: yes with Fitzer Fitzpatrick, but against Lattimore, so I'm not

765
00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:36,319
Speaker 1: worried about it. If you watch If you watch him play,

766
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:38,920
Speaker 1: he can beat just about any corner. So he's just

767
00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:43,040
Speaker 1: you know, Afric Couch. Yeah, A grade there, Godwin. I

768
00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:45,839
Speaker 1: give a B grade to um. He's he's a real

769
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:49,120
Speaker 1: upside shot. Here He's played three games without DeShawn Jackson.

770
00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:54,040
Speaker 1: Here is numbers seven for one eleven and a touchdown

771
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:56,879
Speaker 1: five for one on one in a touchdown. Those are

772
00:39:56,920 --> 00:40:01,959
Speaker 1: massive games. When Jackson doesn't play, y, y, you didn't

773
00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 1: stay stated overtly. But JACKSON'STPP playing in this game. Yes,

774
00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:08,960
Speaker 1: Jackson's out. So also when Jackson's out, Adam Humphreys averages

775
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:11,680
Speaker 1: five and a half catches and seventy yards. So I

776
00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:14,799
Speaker 1: have I have a nice safe four B grade on

777
00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:17,520
Speaker 1: him as well. Uh, Cameron Bade, I have the on

778
00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:21,319
Speaker 1: the bench. The Saints have only allowed one tight untouchdown

779
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:24,360
Speaker 1: in the last calendar year, and it's been even longer

780
00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:28,080
Speaker 1: since weeks seven of last year where break topped fifty yards.

781
00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:30,080
Speaker 1: So I had him on the bench even though Winston's

782
00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:34,200
Speaker 1: at quarterback. Uh, and Barber, I'm just benching him. He

783
00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:36,920
Speaker 1: he's Barber. And the Saints allowed the second fewest runching

784
00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:38,920
Speaker 1: in attempts, and when they do, they're only allowing three

785
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:43,640
Speaker 1: point two yards per carry. I don't Zeke's Zeke got

786
00:40:43,680 --> 00:40:45,880
Speaker 1: like sixty one yards against them. I'm not trusting Barber,

787
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:48,439
Speaker 1: I don't think I would either. We had a caller

788
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:51,919
Speaker 1: on hold who dropped off, but his topic was very good.

789
00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:56,360
Speaker 1: Should teams that have been eliminated from the playoffs be

790
00:40:56,400 --> 00:41:01,080
Speaker 1: allowed to make transactions? Yes? Or no? I have my

791
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:03,680
Speaker 1: own opinion, Bell, I'll yield the floor to you guys. First, Well,

792
00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:06,879
Speaker 1: dynasty keeper is obvious. Yes, I don't even think that's

793
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:09,279
Speaker 1: up for discussion in redrafts. If you have it, if

794
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:10,879
Speaker 1: you're in a toilet bowl. By the way, the reason

795
00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,600
Speaker 1: it's not the reason that dynasty and redraft is because

796
00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:16,560
Speaker 1: it's not fair to let your playoff teams effectively planned

797
00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 1: for next year exactly, continue to make transactions. Well, you can't,

798
00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:21,799
Speaker 1: and you need it more than they do because you're

799
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:24,520
Speaker 1: not even in the playoffs exactly. Giving an advanta, an

800
00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:27,719
Speaker 1: extra an advantage to good teams is ridiculous. You either

801
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:30,520
Speaker 1: need if you're a redraft, if you're a Dynasty league

802
00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:33,799
Speaker 1: or an Empire league, and you get you get to

803
00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:37,279
Speaker 1: the playoffs, either everybody gets locked down on transactions or

804
00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:40,359
Speaker 1: everybody gets to make trips. It needs to be fair

805
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:44,400
Speaker 1: playing field, all right, what about redraft redraft? I'm generally

806
00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 1: in the mode that if you're in a toilet bowl,

807
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:48,920
Speaker 1: yes you can absolutely. If you're not, you know, it's

808
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:50,799
Speaker 1: up to the commissioner. For me, I I don't care

809
00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:53,960
Speaker 1: either way, but i'd probably prefer they don't. In redraft,

810
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:57,200
Speaker 1: if you're not playing at all anymore, well, and I

811
00:41:57,320 --> 00:42:01,239
Speaker 1: want to clarify at all, yes, if you have if

812
00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:04,760
Speaker 1: you have anything to play for, including things like high

813
00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:06,960
Speaker 1: score of the week gets ten bucks, whatever. If you

814
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,520
Speaker 1: have anything to play for, you have to let these

815
00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:13,200
Speaker 1: teams put the best players they can. If they don't

816
00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:15,919
Speaker 1: have anything to play for in a redraft league, then

817
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:19,040
Speaker 1: no transactions. You're out because I don't want you mucking

818
00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:21,880
Speaker 1: up the works with when you have no reason to go.

819
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:25,200
Speaker 1: Get Justin Jackson. I don't want you just playing spoiler

820
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,759
Speaker 1: because you can play spoiler when you have nothing, you

821
00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:29,680
Speaker 1: have no reason to play, you have no opponent, you

822
00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:32,480
Speaker 1: have nothing to play for, then you're out. So if

823
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:35,520
Speaker 1: you've if your if your league gives any reason to play,

824
00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:37,920
Speaker 1: then everybody gets every Then everybody gets to go. If

825
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:39,960
Speaker 1: there's no reason to play to playoff teams are out.

826
00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:49,520
Speaker 1: Let's go to the phones. Bugsy, Hello, Yes that's you. Yeah,

827
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:52,759
Speaker 1: all right, Hey, absolutely great show all year. Thank you

828
00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:55,400
Speaker 1: guys are awesome. Listen to it prectly when I can

829
00:42:55,600 --> 00:43:00,000
Speaker 1: thank you all right, Listen, I met you quickly. I'm

830
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:02,440
Speaker 1: met you ball iviously two years ago. I was a

831
00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:05,520
Speaker 1: flight attendant on some country airlines and your buddy, you

832
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:07,880
Speaker 1: meet a lot of people, but I mean you might remember.

833
00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:09,680
Speaker 1: But I was getting your bloody Marys and think he

834
00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:17,200
Speaker 1: came back from Vegas outstanding. I love that does sound like? Yeah? Anyways, Um,

835
00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:19,520
Speaker 1: I dodged the bullet. Okay, I'm five in the Big

836
00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:22,319
Speaker 1: Man Playoffs on five seat against the four. He had

837
00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:25,080
Speaker 1: Derek Henry in our league, he would have got forty

838
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:28,520
Speaker 1: seven point four points. Left him on the bench. Yeah,

839
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:30,240
Speaker 1: he left him on the bench because he's got starting

840
00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:32,319
Speaker 1: right now. He's got Marlon Mack and uh and that

841
00:43:32,400 --> 00:43:35,520
Speaker 1: new Gut the Wilson guy, Jeffrey whatever, she started them too,

842
00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:37,920
Speaker 1: and he has had him on the bench, and uh

843
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:39,239
Speaker 1: it was the other guy. He could still put it

844
00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:44,040
Speaker 1: on Sunday Kenyan Drake's anyway. So I dodged a bullet. Um,

845
00:43:44,239 --> 00:43:48,320
Speaker 1: now I need help. My running backs was Alex Collins.

846
00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:51,480
Speaker 1: He's word, he's gone. I have David Johnson and now

847
00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:54,920
Speaker 1: the other two guys. Um, I have this really gut feeling,

848
00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:56,640
Speaker 1: you know how you get it. Sometimes you guys on somebody,

849
00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:58,000
Speaker 1: but you don't really talk to him about them much.

850
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:03,200
Speaker 1: But Darren Sproles or long story short, I'm um, Raiders

851
00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:06,279
Speaker 1: got Doug, Doug Martin, Doug Martin, Matt What do you

852
00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:10,960
Speaker 1: think Martin's way safer? Yeah, Martin's Martin's the safety play,

853
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:14,200
Speaker 1: and I think with the sound of his running backs,

854
00:44:14,239 --> 00:44:15,839
Speaker 1: I think all you really need to do is take

855
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:18,040
Speaker 1: the safety play. So I think I'd go Doug Martin

856
00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:21,520
Speaker 1: in this scenario. MARTINIX. I know there was some concern

857
00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:24,200
Speaker 1: about his health um at one point about him playing

858
00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:26,040
Speaker 1: in this game, but I'm pretty confident he is going

859
00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:28,200
Speaker 1: to go. If anybody has a chance for a goal

860
00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:32,319
Speaker 1: line touchdown in that Raiders uh Steelers game, it's gonna

861
00:44:32,320 --> 00:44:34,279
Speaker 1: be Martin. He's got any but is expected to play

862
00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:39,120
Speaker 1: Doug Martin. Thank you for holding uh bugsy. I appreciate it. Um, Yeah,

863
00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:41,720
Speaker 1: no problem. Hey Christmas bonus. I know it's a dumb question,

864
00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:45,080
Speaker 1: but that's not the lightning round. Um, you wouldn't do.

865
00:44:45,120 --> 00:44:47,640
Speaker 1: I got Lamar Jackson and and Mahomes. You just stay

866
00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:51,000
Speaker 1: with Mahomes right, I would, I would, but it's not.

867
00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:53,160
Speaker 1: It's not a dumb question. And if you told me

868
00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:58,960
Speaker 1: had had this guy started, uh, your opponent started Derrick Henry,

869
00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:02,040
Speaker 1: we'd be going to Lamar Jackson because of the the upside,

870
00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:04,600
Speaker 1: the freakish upside that he has. I know Patrick Mahomes

871
00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:07,680
Speaker 1: has freakish upside two. But against the Ravens, I might

872
00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:09,880
Speaker 1: have flipped it over to a different answer when we

873
00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:13,600
Speaker 1: come back. Plenty more to get to, including matchups like

874
00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:18,480
Speaker 1: the Giants taking on Washington. Eli. We already talked a

875
00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:21,280
Speaker 1: little bit about Eli Manning. What about sake Kwon Barkley?

876
00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:25,040
Speaker 1: What about Washington's offense? Is there anybody left to play?

877
00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:27,000
Speaker 1: And a Mark Sants has led team. We'll tell you

878
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:30,640
Speaker 1: when we come back after this. This is Fantasy Football

879
00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:49,359
Speaker 1: Weekly presented by Devan man. Welcome back to the show.

880
00:45:49,400 --> 00:45:52,400
Speaker 1: Our number two a playoff edition and Fantasy Football Weekly.

881
00:45:52,440 --> 00:45:55,239
Speaker 1: Scott Fish and Matt Harrison with you as well. I

882
00:45:55,280 --> 00:46:00,320
Speaker 1: am Paul Charchian. Uh. This is the time first segment.

883
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:05,200
Speaker 1: We like to call three hot questions, and traditionally we

884
00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:10,720
Speaker 1: like to start it right here. Hot question number one.

885
00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:13,480
Speaker 1: Hold on, I'm not on the right page, Ken Paul

886
00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:16,680
Speaker 1: find the right page is hot. Question number one, how

887
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:19,720
Speaker 1: much better will the Packers offense be in the post

888
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:26,440
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy era, no better, somewhat better, or a lot better? Scott.

889
00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:28,600
Speaker 1: This is a weird question me for me because how

890
00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:31,000
Speaker 1: much better? And one of the things is about the same,

891
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:35,239
Speaker 1: about the same, how much better? Um I put somewhat better.

892
00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:38,120
Speaker 1: I mean it's not all on McCarthy. Aaron Rodgers is

893
00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:41,320
Speaker 1: twenty nine in the NFL and completion percentage among quarterbacks

894
00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:43,680
Speaker 1: with over a hundred attempts. I mean, he's He's thrown

895
00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:47,279
Speaker 1: into the ground quite a bit as well. But they

896
00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:51,120
Speaker 1: have some The only tough matchup they have is Chicago. Uh.

897
00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:55,279
Speaker 1: They have two games against bottom ten past defenses, and

898
00:46:55,360 --> 00:46:58,040
Speaker 1: in the last four or five games Rodgers in Chicago,

899
00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:00,520
Speaker 1: he's only had one bad game. I've he's gonna have

900
00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:02,799
Speaker 1: three pretty good games down the stretch here. I think

901
00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:05,479
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with somewhat better. Okay, are you looking

902
00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:09,279
Speaker 1: at this from a next year standpoint? The rest of

903
00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:11,680
Speaker 1: this year? Sorry, that was not clear. The rest of

904
00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:13,960
Speaker 1: this year not into perpetuity or yeah, well I was

905
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:15,840
Speaker 1: a Viking fan. I was rooting for the Packers to

906
00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:19,640
Speaker 1: hold on for Mike McCarthy as um he was a

907
00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:23,000
Speaker 1: mediocre to bad offensive coordinator in San Francisco who looked

908
00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:25,360
Speaker 1: into two of the top ten quarterbacks in last twenty

909
00:47:25,360 --> 00:47:29,960
Speaker 1: five years. Great quarterback, maybe the best in the NFL.

910
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:33,520
Speaker 1: I still think he's gonna be rejuvenated by Joe Philbin,

911
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:36,640
Speaker 1: and maybe Aaron Rodgers is calling more of the plays now. Frankly,

912
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:39,719
Speaker 1: he's got possibly the best wide receiver in the league

913
00:47:39,719 --> 00:47:42,600
Speaker 1: in Davante Adams at well above average running back and

914
00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:46,400
Speaker 1: above average offensive line, young but decent depth receivers. I

915
00:47:46,480 --> 00:47:49,279
Speaker 1: think they're gonna be a lot better going forward. Uh,

916
00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:51,760
Speaker 1: no stoppers in the schedule. I like him a lot.

917
00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:55,800
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go in some intangibles here. If Aaron Rodgers

918
00:47:55,920 --> 00:48:00,759
Speaker 1: openly did Aaron Rodgers openly campaigned against Mike mcarthy in

919
00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:03,880
Speaker 1: the media right, talking second guessing his play calling, we

920
00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:05,960
Speaker 1: need to use Aaron, Aaron Jones more of that kind

921
00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:09,960
Speaker 1: of stuff. Imagine what was happening behind closed doors between

922
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:15,160
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers and Mike McCarthy, right, and ultimately Rogers got

923
00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:18,800
Speaker 1: his way. McCarthy's gone. Joe Philbin is a four game

924
00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:21,759
Speaker 1: speed bump, but nothing more. You know the guy who

925
00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:25,520
Speaker 1: runs that The guy who runs that offense is Aaron Rodgers,

926
00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:28,799
Speaker 1: not Joe Philban. No chance that Philban is gonna run

927
00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:32,680
Speaker 1: an offense contrary to rogers wishes. So Rogers is running

928
00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:34,680
Speaker 1: the show, He's going to want to prove that he's

929
00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:37,520
Speaker 1: right that he was being held back by Mike McCarthy.

930
00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:40,800
Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of motivation for Aaron Rodgers,

931
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:42,759
Speaker 1: and he might be right by the way, there is

932
00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:45,279
Speaker 1: a chance he's correct about that. And then three of

933
00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:49,920
Speaker 1: the four remaining matchups are just excellent matchups for him. Falcons, Jets, Lions,

934
00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:53,640
Speaker 1: all elite level matchups. Aaron Rodgers my number three quarterback

935
00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:56,320
Speaker 1: this week, take Randall cob off the injury report for

936
00:48:56,360 --> 00:49:00,160
Speaker 1: the first time all year Packers offense. It's going to

937
00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:07,439
Speaker 1: get a lot better. Question number two, how many tight

938
00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:10,359
Speaker 1: ends should be taken in the first round next year?

939
00:49:10,560 --> 00:49:13,080
Speaker 1: This is the next year question, Matt, Okay, how many

940
00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:17,480
Speaker 1: tight ends should be taken in the first round next year? Zero? One,

941
00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:25,200
Speaker 1: two or three? Matt? How many titans will or should should, should,

942
00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:30,840
Speaker 1: should not? Will? How many titans should be taken? So

943
00:49:31,320 --> 00:49:34,120
Speaker 1: we hear at this little radio show we call Fantasy

944
00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:36,960
Speaker 1: Football Weekly like to get to we have the ability

945
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:39,879
Speaker 1: to cause change in the world, and I think that

946
00:49:39,920 --> 00:49:42,200
Speaker 1: we will do this. Uh if you looked at a

947
00:49:42,239 --> 00:49:45,480
Speaker 1: mock right now, you'll see probably zero. But I'm on record,

948
00:49:45,760 --> 00:49:50,240
Speaker 1: were a pinned tweet on my Twitter account or Travis

949
00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:56,120
Speaker 1: Kelsey one one in two thousand, I think first, first

950
00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:59,319
Speaker 1: player taken. And the difference in having a top two

951
00:49:59,360 --> 00:50:03,000
Speaker 1: tight end and not having one is the playoffs. Basically

952
00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:06,400
Speaker 1: in many leagues, Earth's has ninety three receptions, Kelsey has

953
00:50:06,440 --> 00:50:09,440
Speaker 1: seventy nine. They average nearly two to three more catches

954
00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:12,000
Speaker 1: per game than George Kittle, who's a lock at tight

955
00:50:12,080 --> 00:50:14,839
Speaker 1: end number three. I think two of them should go

956
00:50:14,880 --> 00:50:17,239
Speaker 1: in the first round. Kelsey will get taken first, and

957
00:50:17,239 --> 00:50:20,480
Speaker 1: then Earth's will get taken almost immediately after that because

958
00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:23,000
Speaker 1: of scarcity. So I think it's gonna be two tight

959
00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:24,759
Speaker 1: ends taken in the first round next year. All right,

960
00:50:25,239 --> 00:50:28,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go deeper and I'm gonna say four. I'm

961
00:50:28,560 --> 00:50:32,800
Speaker 1: just kidding, uh No, and I completely agree with that strategy.

962
00:50:33,000 --> 00:50:36,120
Speaker 1: I and I think, as we've seen in the mocks,

963
00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:39,640
Speaker 1: once one goes, the next to go right away like

964
00:50:39,680 --> 00:50:42,640
Speaker 1: Earth's and Kid will go right after. So I'm gonna

965
00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:45,200
Speaker 1: say saying three, are you saying to I'm gonna go

966
00:50:45,280 --> 00:50:47,239
Speaker 1: with Matt and say too. I think the third comes

967
00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:49,200
Speaker 1: right around the corner in the second, so I'm gonna

968
00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:51,840
Speaker 1: go too. That that's fun. I like that strategy. Not

969
00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:54,719
Speaker 1: only is Travis Kelsey the number one scoring tight end,

970
00:50:55,080 --> 00:51:00,560
Speaker 1: he's the number four scoring receiver including wide receiver. Right.

971
00:51:01,120 --> 00:51:02,680
Speaker 1: So if you're one of these people like I could

972
00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:04,440
Speaker 1: never take a tight end in the first round, well,

973
00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:06,319
Speaker 1: would you take the number four wide receiver in the

974
00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:09,200
Speaker 1: at the end of the first round? Of course you would. Yeah,

975
00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:12,319
Speaker 1: So I gotta take Odell Beckham in the first round? Yeah, right,

976
00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:15,680
Speaker 1: So why wouldn't you take Travis Kelsey? How about zach Ertz?

977
00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:18,640
Speaker 1: You mentioned the ninety three reception second only to Adam Feeling.

978
00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:22,280
Speaker 1: His fantasy points make him wide receiver ten right now,

979
00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:25,920
Speaker 1: of course? And Kittle will get Garoppolo back. Yeah, and

980
00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:28,000
Speaker 1: Kittle gets Garoppolo back. That's all. I'll come to him

981
00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:30,120
Speaker 1: in a minute. So of course you'd want to draft

982
00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:34,640
Speaker 1: both of those tight ends where you get massive positional advantages.

983
00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:38,040
Speaker 1: Had this year you decided to slough the tight end

984
00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:40,680
Speaker 1: position and just gone for the sixth Beth tight end

985
00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:43,239
Speaker 1: and for and you somehow knew the sixth Beth tight

986
00:51:43,320 --> 00:51:46,480
Speaker 1: end you're sitting at. You've played Austin freaking Hooper all

987
00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:49,200
Speaker 1: year to get to number six, and most likely you

988
00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:51,839
Speaker 1: weren't even that good. If you really let the tight

989
00:51:51,920 --> 00:51:54,719
Speaker 1: end position go this year, you were you were in

990
00:51:54,719 --> 00:51:57,440
Speaker 1: the unfortunate position of starting David and Joku as the

991
00:51:57,520 --> 00:52:02,359
Speaker 1: number twelve tight end all season streaming right, And it's

992
00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:04,480
Speaker 1: way worse than that. I mean, that's like, that's your

993
00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:06,960
Speaker 1: best case scenarios. Really, if you waited to the middle

994
00:52:06,960 --> 00:52:08,319
Speaker 1: of the tight end run or the end of the

995
00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:10,920
Speaker 1: tight end run, I will say, every year it seems

996
00:52:10,920 --> 00:52:13,359
Speaker 1: to be a big three, you do it earlier, you wait,

997
00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:16,799
Speaker 1: this year's worse. Like the gap. Well, let's talk about

998
00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:19,560
Speaker 1: the gap. So if you waited to the middle and

999
00:52:19,640 --> 00:52:22,640
Speaker 1: you were going to wear with Austin Hooper, you were

1000
00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:28,040
Speaker 1: getting outscored by a three to one margin by Kelsey

1001
00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:30,040
Speaker 1: and Arts. If you waited all the way down to

1002
00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:33,600
Speaker 1: in Joco a four to one margin, that's how big

1003
00:52:33,640 --> 00:52:37,319
Speaker 1: you were penalized. Now, so obviously those two guys are

1004
00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:42,600
Speaker 1: in should George kit will go in the first round. Well, yes,

1005
00:52:42,680 --> 00:52:45,040
Speaker 1: but you won't have to take him there. So because

1006
00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:47,080
Speaker 1: you won't need to take Kiddle there because people aren't

1007
00:52:47,080 --> 00:52:48,880
Speaker 1: going to because he didn't do it last year, and

1008
00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:50,960
Speaker 1: people can't, you know, come to grips with the concept

1009
00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:53,520
Speaker 1: that things might change in the next year. You won't

1010
00:52:53,560 --> 00:52:55,640
Speaker 1: have to take Kittle in the first But if I

1011
00:52:55,680 --> 00:52:58,480
Speaker 1: was in a sadity, I would absolutely consider it. But

1012
00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:00,799
Speaker 1: you won't have to sleep correct answer for the number

1013
00:53:00,800 --> 00:53:02,719
Speaker 1: of tight ends taken in the first round next year

1014
00:53:03,200 --> 00:53:09,520
Speaker 1: is too hot. Question number three for the rest of

1015
00:53:09,560 --> 00:53:12,080
Speaker 1: the year. Is Derrick Henry and RB one and r

1016
00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:16,600
Speaker 1: B two a flex or a bench runner? Scott bench

1017
00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:19,640
Speaker 1: I can't, I can't. I mean, I can't trust him.

1018
00:53:19,680 --> 00:53:21,799
Speaker 1: I can't trust him after one game. I mean he

1019
00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:24,200
Speaker 1: I don't think. I think I saw the stat that

1020
00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:27,520
Speaker 1: he'd never topped sixty five yards this season. Yet I

1021
00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:29,560
Speaker 1: might be wrong. Might actually I might be able to

1022
00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:31,440
Speaker 1: pull it. I'll I'll look, well, you're well, you continue

1023
00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:33,680
Speaker 1: to chat. Well, I have barely anything else to say

1024
00:53:33,800 --> 00:53:36,600
Speaker 1: I have. I haven't been able to trust him all year.

1025
00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:39,600
Speaker 1: Why am I going to trust him in my fantasy playoffs? Alright,

1026
00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:42,960
Speaker 1: it doesn't even matter because everybody had him on the

1027
00:53:42,960 --> 00:53:46,200
Speaker 1: bench already and their teams out of the playoffs. I'm gonna,

1028
00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:48,360
Speaker 1: I'm gonna, I'm gonna league right now where Derrick Henry

1029
00:53:48,400 --> 00:53:53,080
Speaker 1: was on a playoff roster and started. Wow. So he

1030
00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:55,680
Speaker 1: had not topped fifty seven yards in a game prior

1031
00:53:55,719 --> 00:53:58,919
Speaker 1: to this one this year. That's ridiculous. It didn't help

1032
00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:02,080
Speaker 1: that that Indy some yard touchdown that he had was

1033
00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:04,720
Speaker 1: like the worst tackling I've ever seen by a team

1034
00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:07,440
Speaker 1: in the history of football. It was. It was so gross.

1035
00:54:07,760 --> 00:54:10,560
Speaker 1: The Giants is a good matchup. Washington is not particularly

1036
00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:13,920
Speaker 1: a great matchup. People will chase stats next week. I won't.

1037
00:54:13,960 --> 00:54:17,240
Speaker 1: I'm not fooled. I'm benching him. You know, he scored

1038
00:54:17,360 --> 00:54:19,960
Speaker 1: in five of them. He scored uh in five of

1039
00:54:20,000 --> 00:54:23,640
Speaker 1: the last seven games. The total yards, by the way,

1040
00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:26,120
Speaker 1: yeah six five total yards. Like he doesn't. He chips

1041
00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:27,719
Speaker 1: it nothing through the air. He had a he had

1042
00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:30,080
Speaker 1: a thirty three rushing, thirty two receiving. That was his

1043
00:54:30,160 --> 00:54:33,520
Speaker 1: best total yard. But because of the touchdowns at five touched,

1044
00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:36,640
Speaker 1: he has scored a touchdown at least in five last

1045
00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:38,439
Speaker 1: seven games. I don't think he's a bench grade guy

1046
00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:40,880
Speaker 1: going forward. I still want to touch on him. I

1047
00:54:40,880 --> 00:54:43,520
Speaker 1: still want touchdown and burned to me too many. He goes, yeah,

1048
00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:45,600
Speaker 1: you guys sound like bitter Derrick Henry is he? I

1049
00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:49,480
Speaker 1: don't know him in anything at He goes up against

1050
00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:52,040
Speaker 1: the Giants without Snacks Harrison. They've turned into the worst

1051
00:54:52,120 --> 00:54:54,799
Speaker 1: run defense in the NFL without Snacks Harrison next week,

1052
00:54:55,360 --> 00:54:57,720
Speaker 1: and so I think he's gonna I think Derrick Henry

1053
00:54:57,760 --> 00:54:59,480
Speaker 1: is going to have a B or AC grade from

1054
00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:03,480
Speaker 1: US next week. Then he's got Washington, they've stumped to

1055
00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:06,759
Speaker 1: twenty eight in running back fantasy points allowed over the

1056
00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:09,160
Speaker 1: last month. I think he's gonna get a beer REC

1057
00:55:09,320 --> 00:55:12,720
Speaker 1: grade there too. Then he gets the Colts. They've sumped

1058
00:55:12,719 --> 00:55:15,439
Speaker 1: to twenty seven in fantasy points allowed to running backs

1059
00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:18,680
Speaker 1: in the last that's Week seventeen. Don't play fantasy football.

1060
00:55:18,719 --> 00:55:21,080
Speaker 1: Week's seventeen kills. I think he's gonna get a Beer

1061
00:55:21,200 --> 00:55:22,640
Speaker 1: C grade in that one too, although we won't be

1062
00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:24,360
Speaker 1: on the air for Week seventeen, but that's the right

1063
00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:28,800
Speaker 1: grade he'd likely get. Derrick Henry, based if nothing else

1076
00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:14,759
Speaker 1: Play along to grain belt dot com. Let's how are

1077
00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:16,920
Speaker 1: you doing at time? Let's work in another matchup. I

1078
00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:21,279
Speaker 1: think our next matchup is Giants against the Washington Redskins.

1079
00:56:23,080 --> 00:56:24,880
Speaker 1: What do you think, Eli Manning? It just looks like

1080
00:56:24,920 --> 00:56:28,680
Speaker 1: a promising game, Matt game A C grade, that's it. Yeah,

1081
00:56:28,719 --> 00:56:31,000
Speaker 1: I thought it might be a little higher. Washington has

1082
00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:34,120
Speaker 1: bottom seven and completions and passing yards allowed per game.

1083
00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:36,720
Speaker 1: ELI put up three, sixteen and one in the first matchup.

1084
00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:39,680
Speaker 1: I'd say the good numbers high two hundreds in a

1085
00:56:39,760 --> 00:56:43,480
Speaker 1: score is about what you're gonna get for Eli. That's

1086
00:56:43,520 --> 00:56:46,480
Speaker 1: just a see for me. Uh. Much like my basement

1087
00:56:46,480 --> 00:56:48,839
Speaker 1: apartment in college. The floor and the ceiling are way

1088
00:56:48,880 --> 00:56:53,319
Speaker 1: too close together for Eli um Evan Ingram. He's on

1089
00:56:53,360 --> 00:56:57,000
Speaker 1: the bench along with Sterling Shepherd. Sterling's a bit dinged

1090
00:56:57,040 --> 00:56:59,600
Speaker 1: up with a rib injury that limited him in practice

1091
00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:01,640
Speaker 1: this week, and he hasn't topped thirty seven yards in

1092
00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:04,680
Speaker 1: five games. UH. Ingraham is going to play this week

1093
00:57:04,719 --> 00:57:06,799
Speaker 1: after missing the last two games, but he hasn't been

1094
00:57:06,840 --> 00:57:09,680
Speaker 1: healthy or right yet this season and faces a Washington

1095
00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:12,160
Speaker 1: defense that's only allowed three scores on the on the

1096
00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:15,080
Speaker 1: whole year to the tight end position UH and then

1097
00:57:16,720 --> 00:57:20,960
Speaker 1: Odell Beckham. A. Beckham is scored topped a hundred and

1098
00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:23,800
Speaker 1: twenty yards or both in five of six career meetings

1099
00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:26,360
Speaker 1: with Washington, and he torched him in the Week eight matchup.

1100
00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:29,680
Speaker 1: On the other side, Adrian Peterson's the only viable start

1101
00:57:29,720 --> 00:57:33,040
Speaker 1: for Washington. He gets a B grade. UH. Mark Sanchez

1102
00:57:33,120 --> 00:57:35,240
Speaker 1: is in charge of throwing the ball now. That means

1103
00:57:35,240 --> 00:57:37,440
Speaker 1: he's going to hand it off and he's facing a

1104
00:57:37,480 --> 00:57:40,680
Speaker 1: defensive front. That is void of my cousin, Snacks Harrison

1105
00:57:41,120 --> 00:57:43,960
Speaker 1: and safety land and Collins ended up on it. Nobody,

1106
00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:45,480
Speaker 1: nobody's ever seen the two of you in the same

1107
00:57:45,520 --> 00:57:48,120
Speaker 1: place at the same time, Snacks. It might be the

1108
00:57:48,160 --> 00:57:50,920
Speaker 1: same person or not the same He's my cousin. Come on, cousin,

1109
00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:55,160
Speaker 1: okay um, I see the family resemblance. Absolutely, Landon Collins

1110
00:57:55,560 --> 00:57:58,520
Speaker 1: was a run stuffing safety. He was put on I

1111
00:57:58,720 --> 00:58:01,160
Speaker 1: R this week. That's a huge loss. Uh. Giants gave

1112
00:58:01,240 --> 00:58:03,640
Speaker 1: up a hundred and thirteen rushing yards to Bears backs

1113
00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:06,760
Speaker 1: last week, one nine to the Phillybacks the week before

1114
00:58:06,840 --> 00:58:09,440
Speaker 1: and one oh six to Peyton Barber the week before that.

1115
00:58:09,880 --> 00:58:13,600
Speaker 1: Those aren't impressive groups running backs. So Adrian Peterson's a

1116
00:58:13,640 --> 00:58:17,000
Speaker 1: solid B. I guess you could give Chris Thompson desperation

1117
00:58:17,080 --> 00:58:19,320
Speaker 1: D and PPR. He did return last week and had

1118
00:58:19,320 --> 00:58:21,920
Speaker 1: five targets, But he's part of a past of the

1119
00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:23,960
Speaker 1: passing game, and I hate the passing game, which is

1120
00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:26,960
Speaker 1: all on the bench. Sanchez, through twenty one time spanning

1121
00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:29,880
Speaker 1: almost a full game last week, managed only one hundred

1122
00:58:29,920 --> 00:58:33,000
Speaker 1: passing yards in one interception. The whole passing games dead.

1123
00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:35,360
Speaker 1: It's very possible that they throw less than twenty five

1124
00:58:35,480 --> 00:58:37,880
Speaker 1: passing attempts in this game, and the Giants have allowed

1125
00:58:37,920 --> 00:58:40,439
Speaker 1: the third fewest passing touchdowns in the league this year.

1126
00:58:41,960 --> 00:58:43,400
Speaker 1: Jets take out in the Bills, and there's not a

1127
00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:45,160
Speaker 1: lot to talk about in this game. Every Jet has

1128
00:58:45,200 --> 00:58:47,880
Speaker 1: got a bench grade here, Um the whole passing game

1129
00:58:47,920 --> 00:58:50,640
Speaker 1: of Sam Donald is on the bench and Isaiah crowles

1130
00:58:50,680 --> 00:58:53,680
Speaker 1: on the bench. He's bouncing between six and twenty one

1131
00:58:53,720 --> 00:58:55,360
Speaker 1: carries and back to back games. You never know what

1132
00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:57,360
Speaker 1: you're gonna get, but you know it won't be overwhelming

1133
00:58:57,400 --> 00:59:00,240
Speaker 1: no matter what. Despite playing from behind most of the season,

1134
00:59:00,280 --> 00:59:02,600
Speaker 1: the Bills have only allowed two players to gain eighty

1135
00:59:02,840 --> 00:59:05,400
Speaker 1: or more rushing yards all year against them, and Isaiah

1136
00:59:05,440 --> 00:59:07,680
Speaker 1: Crawl is not likely to be that guy. And Elijah

1137
00:59:07,760 --> 00:59:10,560
Speaker 1: McGuire is not getting enough use for consideration anyway. In

1138
00:59:10,560 --> 00:59:13,080
Speaker 1: a tough matchup. Chris Herndon might be the only other

1139
00:59:13,160 --> 00:59:14,920
Speaker 1: Jet you might even be thinking about. The Bills have

1140
00:59:14,960 --> 00:59:17,680
Speaker 1: allowed the fewest receiving yards at tight ends period. End

1141
00:59:17,680 --> 00:59:20,440
Speaker 1: of story. So Chris Herndon's out, So let's go to

1142
00:59:20,480 --> 00:59:23,000
Speaker 1: the Bill side. Josh Allen was might take a chance

1143
00:59:23,040 --> 00:59:25,800
Speaker 1: on me quarterback with a B grade. Za Jones was

1144
00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:28,520
Speaker 1: fishes take a chance of me wide receiver. I've got

1145
00:59:28,520 --> 00:59:32,200
Speaker 1: a B grade on him as well. Let's talk Lashawn McCoy.

1146
00:59:32,360 --> 00:59:39,520
Speaker 1: Let's he's had exactly one Fantasy relevant game all year one.

1147
00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:42,640
Speaker 1: The only game with a touchdown came three games ago,

1148
00:59:43,240 --> 00:59:48,040
Speaker 1: but it was against these same Jet Lightning could strike twice.

1149
00:59:48,240 --> 00:59:51,360
Speaker 1: The Jets have allowed five hundred fifty seven rushing yards

1150
00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:54,040
Speaker 1: to running backs in just the last three weeks. I

1151
00:59:54,080 --> 00:59:56,760
Speaker 1: don't have my advocus out, but I'm I'm guessing that's

1152
00:59:56,760 --> 01:00:02,680
Speaker 1: about a hundred and sixty seventy yards rushing each game,

1153
01:00:02,760 --> 01:00:06,320
Speaker 1: something like that. So Lashawn McCoy is, it's got a

1154
01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:08,400
Speaker 1: C grade here. Let's hope this is gonna be a

1155
01:00:08,440 --> 01:00:12,640
Speaker 1: second Fantasy relevant game of the year. Robert Foster the

1156
01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:17,360
Speaker 1: Scott Fish Special. Do you like him this week? Not

1157
01:00:17,400 --> 01:00:19,760
Speaker 1: as much as they three games ago he had a

1158
01:00:19,840 --> 01:00:22,440
Speaker 1: hundred five yards he did two games ago he had

1159
01:00:22,520 --> 01:00:24,880
Speaker 1: ninety four yards in a touchdown. It's the last week

1160
01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:26,800
Speaker 1: in one catch. It's a big play thing and Josh

1161
01:00:26,840 --> 01:00:28,720
Speaker 1: Allen's got a big arm, so he's gonna do that.

1162
01:00:28,960 --> 01:00:31,880
Speaker 1: But the dismissal of Kelvin Benjamin and Andre Holmes frees

1163
01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:34,880
Speaker 1: up some targets. I think Foster's I think this is

1164
01:00:34,920 --> 01:00:37,560
Speaker 1: the It's the first time that Robert Foster's every every

1165
01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:40,720
Speaker 1: down starter, which he will be this game. The Jets

1166
01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:44,200
Speaker 1: ran twenty nine and yards allowed to wide out receptions

1167
01:00:44,200 --> 01:00:48,240
Speaker 1: to white outs. Robert foster sneaky play. Scott, I think

1168
01:00:48,240 --> 01:00:50,520
Speaker 1: you're getting off the bandwag and just the wrong No, No,

1169
01:00:50,600 --> 01:00:53,240
Speaker 1: I'm not off the you're off the bandwagon, I admit it.

1170
01:00:53,440 --> 01:00:55,600
Speaker 1: I just think he's a boomer bust type of guy.

1171
01:00:55,680 --> 01:00:57,720
Speaker 1: He has a boomer bust guy. When we come back,

1172
01:00:57,760 --> 01:01:01,360
Speaker 1: Denver takes on San Francisco. Philip Lindsay has been one

1173
01:01:01,360 --> 01:01:04,520
Speaker 1: of the great stories of the fantasy season. Will it

1174
01:01:04,600 --> 01:01:07,000
Speaker 1: continue against the forty nine ers? Find out when we

1175
01:01:07,040 --> 01:01:10,560
Speaker 1: come back. This is Fantasy Football Weekly presented my Green

1176
01:01:10,640 --> 01:01:22,520
Speaker 1: Bill Premium on the Van Playoff petition and Fantasy Football Weekly.

1177
01:01:22,560 --> 01:01:26,360
Speaker 1: Paul Charting with you, Matt Harrison, Scott fish Uh, Let's

1178
01:01:26,400 --> 01:01:28,720
Speaker 1: jump right back into the matchups. Denver takes on San

1179
01:01:28,760 --> 01:01:33,320
Speaker 1: Francisco and boy Emmanuel Sanders loss is I think gonna

1180
01:01:33,480 --> 01:01:36,720
Speaker 1: gramifications through that whole offense. They don't have to respect

1181
01:01:36,720 --> 01:01:39,680
Speaker 1: the past anymore. Courtland, Sulland's gonna get number one coverage

1182
01:01:39,720 --> 01:01:43,000
Speaker 1: all the time. And I worry frankly about about the

1183
01:01:43,040 --> 01:01:45,800
Speaker 1: whole offense just taking a big step backwards for Denver,

1184
01:01:46,200 --> 01:01:48,680
Speaker 1: maybe even in this matchup against San Francisco. What do

1185
01:01:48,720 --> 01:01:51,600
Speaker 1: you think it's gonna be really interesting for Lindsay, especially

1186
01:01:51,720 --> 01:01:56,160
Speaker 1: because he had faced one of the least stacked boxes

1187
01:01:56,200 --> 01:01:58,000
Speaker 1: in the NFL out of all the Out of all

1188
01:01:58,080 --> 01:02:01,640
Speaker 1: running backs, he had seen the least amount of stack boxes. Ironically,

1189
01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:05,400
Speaker 1: Royce Freeman had seen some of the most one of

1190
01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:08,000
Speaker 1: the highest percentages of stack boxes. You sound like a

1191
01:02:08,080 --> 01:02:12,680
Speaker 1: Freeman truther to me right now. There is not getting

1192
01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:16,400
Speaker 1: enough carries and shut up. Hey, you know me, Yeah,

1193
01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:19,000
Speaker 1: you know me. I watched the games. I know I'm

1194
01:02:19,040 --> 01:02:22,040
Speaker 1: all in on Lindsay. He looks so good, he um,

1195
01:02:22,480 --> 01:02:25,000
Speaker 1: but on this one I did just give him a

1196
01:02:25,080 --> 01:02:28,080
Speaker 1: B grade because I think the whole offense really suffers

1197
01:02:28,120 --> 01:02:31,720
Speaker 1: with them out Emmanuel standards to keep those drives alive. Um,

1198
01:02:32,680 --> 01:02:35,920
Speaker 1: there's there's there's some a lot to like. Though. The

1199
01:02:35,920 --> 01:02:38,000
Speaker 1: four nine ers have allowed hundred total yards or more

1200
01:02:38,040 --> 01:02:41,320
Speaker 1: to running backs every week since Week seven, when the

1201
01:02:41,400 --> 01:02:44,520
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy led Packers failed to do so only because

1202
01:02:44,600 --> 01:02:48,680
Speaker 1: he gave Jamal Williams and Time Agomer the snaps. If

1203
01:02:48,720 --> 01:02:50,560
Speaker 1: he hadn't done that, they probably would have done it too.

1204
01:02:51,240 --> 01:02:54,840
Speaker 1: So be great for Lindsay. I have the whole passing game,

1205
01:02:55,000 --> 01:02:58,240
Speaker 1: even uh, you know Dynasty Darling Dayshawn Hamilton's who takes

1206
01:02:58,280 --> 01:03:01,760
Speaker 1: over the slot for Emmanuel Sanders. I have the whole

1207
01:03:01,800 --> 01:03:05,040
Speaker 1: passing game except for Sutton on the bench. I think

1208
01:03:05,080 --> 01:03:07,160
Speaker 1: Sutton's going to take a couple of those targets, but

1209
01:03:07,360 --> 01:03:09,320
Speaker 1: a lot of people think it's gonna be He's gonna

1210
01:03:09,320 --> 01:03:10,960
Speaker 1: be ten plus a game. I don't know that that's

1211
01:03:10,960 --> 01:03:16,040
Speaker 1: going to happen, but he these matchups for Denver coming up,

1212
01:03:16,080 --> 01:03:20,160
Speaker 1: and this one especially, uh, they're all bottom eleven against

1213
01:03:20,360 --> 01:03:25,160
Speaker 1: uh deep deep past attempt u scoring for wide receivers,

1214
01:03:25,240 --> 01:03:27,360
Speaker 1: and that's that's really Sutton's game. Sutton can do that

1215
01:03:28,320 --> 01:03:30,640
Speaker 1: if he gets seven to ten targets, I think he

1216
01:03:30,680 --> 01:03:32,240
Speaker 1: could have a B game here. So that's why I

1217
01:03:32,320 --> 01:03:36,040
Speaker 1: like him. On the other side, I'm benching Mullins. He's

1218
01:03:36,080 --> 01:03:38,800
Speaker 1: had four good games, but the two four games, and

1219
01:03:38,840 --> 01:03:40,720
Speaker 1: two of them were great, but one was a blow

1220
01:03:40,880 --> 01:03:44,480
Speaker 1: Both were blowouts. Really one was. One was the Oakland

1221
01:03:44,560 --> 01:03:48,280
Speaker 1: game and the other was blowout behind trailing Seattle. I

1222
01:03:48,320 --> 01:03:50,480
Speaker 1: think this one's gonna be low scoring and close, So

1223
01:03:50,560 --> 01:03:53,320
Speaker 1: I don't like Mullins or much of the passing game here, Kittle,

1224
01:03:53,360 --> 01:03:58,080
Speaker 1: though obviously uh Pettis. With Goodwin back, I'm tentative to

1225
01:03:58,160 --> 01:04:02,760
Speaker 1: give them both C grades. Um Pettis has two yards

1226
01:04:02,800 --> 01:04:04,720
Speaker 1: and three touches the last two weeks, but that denber

1227
01:04:04,840 --> 01:04:08,760
Speaker 1: secondary Scotts in flux without Chris Harris, right, you've taken

1228
01:04:08,840 --> 01:04:11,080
Speaker 1: the best cornerback off the team. Granted he was a

1229
01:04:11,800 --> 01:04:14,080
Speaker 1: Pettis runs a fair amount from the slot. I like

1230
01:04:14,280 --> 01:04:16,440
Speaker 1: him a little better than Goodwin here, but I just

1231
01:04:16,520 --> 01:04:19,120
Speaker 1: wonder if taking Harris out, if that's just going to

1232
01:04:19,240 --> 01:04:23,720
Speaker 1: create a ripple effect of weirdness for the Broncos secondary.

1233
01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:26,120
Speaker 1: That's exactly kind of what I had. I had Pettis with.

1234
01:04:26,520 --> 01:04:29,160
Speaker 1: You're gonna say we No, I had Pettis with A

1235
01:04:29,240 --> 01:04:31,640
Speaker 1: being good one at the Sea. I knocked Pettis back

1236
01:04:31,680 --> 01:04:34,120
Speaker 1: to a C, but I put in my matchup here.

1237
01:04:34,160 --> 01:04:37,600
Speaker 1: I like him better than Goodwin. I think he's developed

1238
01:04:37,640 --> 01:04:39,840
Speaker 1: a real connection with Mullins over the last couple of weeks,

1239
01:04:39,880 --> 01:04:42,280
Speaker 1: so I give him the edge there. Uh, and Wilson

1240
01:04:42,400 --> 01:04:47,840
Speaker 1: was my take on Yeah, excellent, yeah. Uh. Matt Cincinnati

1241
01:04:47,920 --> 01:04:51,720
Speaker 1: takes on the Chargers. It's the Bengals are a team

1242
01:04:51,760 --> 01:04:54,840
Speaker 1: in utter and total disarray right now. They're missing offensive lineman,

1243
01:04:54,840 --> 01:04:58,720
Speaker 1: two starting cornerbacks, um starting quarterback. It's all bad for

1244
01:04:58,760 --> 01:05:01,320
Speaker 1: the Bengals right now. Not to mention A J. Green,

1245
01:05:02,360 --> 01:05:05,080
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, oh yeah, a J. Green. Oh yeah. By

1246
01:05:05,120 --> 01:05:07,680
Speaker 1: the way, that guy um Chart, do you have a

1247
01:05:07,800 --> 01:05:13,000
Speaker 1: sad trombone over there? Because my Jeff Driscoll call of

1248
01:05:13,160 --> 01:05:16,440
Speaker 1: last week. But he's he's so fast, he's the fastest

1249
01:05:16,520 --> 01:05:18,960
Speaker 1: Jeff you know, except now for Jeff Wilson Jr. In

1250
01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:23,440
Speaker 1: San Francisco. Uh, Chargers are top ten in passing yards,

1251
01:05:23,480 --> 01:05:27,400
Speaker 1: passing touchdowns, picks, rushing yards, and rushing touchdowns allowed to quarterbacks.

1252
01:05:27,920 --> 01:05:31,440
Speaker 1: So Driskll is on the bench just barely some C

1253
01:05:31,640 --> 01:05:35,560
Speaker 1: grades for some other guys. Uh. Tyler Boyd faces awesome

1254
01:05:35,640 --> 01:05:38,440
Speaker 1: slot corner Desmond King, who's only allowed one touchdown on

1255
01:05:38,480 --> 01:05:41,280
Speaker 1: the season. Boyd will suffer because of the Green loss

1256
01:05:41,400 --> 01:05:43,720
Speaker 1: is his numbers have dipped in games without a J.

1257
01:05:44,320 --> 01:05:47,080
Speaker 1: John Ross will drop Casey Hayward. So he's on the bench.

1258
01:05:47,680 --> 01:05:51,640
Speaker 1: C j Uzoma, I'm giving a slight C two because

1259
01:05:51,680 --> 01:05:55,000
Speaker 1: since Jeff Driscoll started taking snaps, whose Oma leads the

1260
01:05:55,040 --> 01:05:58,080
Speaker 1: team and targets with seventeen and in about six quarters

1261
01:05:58,440 --> 01:06:01,200
Speaker 1: of play and includes ten against the Browns and seven

1262
01:06:01,280 --> 01:06:04,080
Speaker 1: last week against the Broncos. So from a volume standpoint

1263
01:06:04,400 --> 01:06:06,520
Speaker 1: in a game, they should be playing catch up. Whose

1264
01:06:06,520 --> 01:06:09,800
Speaker 1: Elma is the top target? Uh? And then Joe Mixing,

1265
01:06:09,840 --> 01:06:11,560
Speaker 1: I'm only given him a C grade two. In the

1266
01:06:11,680 --> 01:06:14,560
Speaker 1: last two weeks, Mixing and the offense have lost as

1267
01:06:14,600 --> 01:06:18,040
Speaker 1: you said, Dalton Green and tackle Cordy Glenn. Mixing was

1268
01:06:18,120 --> 01:06:20,560
Speaker 1: also limited and practiced this week with a foot injury,

1269
01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:23,520
Speaker 1: and the Chargers have not allowed a one yard rusher

1270
01:06:23,600 --> 01:06:28,160
Speaker 1: since Todd Gurley in Week three. Over on the other side,

1271
01:06:28,240 --> 01:06:30,680
Speaker 1: Melvin Gordon still sitting out this week with a knee injury.

1272
01:06:30,760 --> 01:06:33,000
Speaker 1: And I talked about how I like Justin Jackson as

1273
01:06:33,080 --> 01:06:34,800
Speaker 1: might take a chance to me running back. You know,

1274
01:06:34,840 --> 01:06:37,120
Speaker 1: I've got I've got him as a borderline A grade.

1275
01:06:38,000 --> 01:06:41,720
Speaker 1: It's still going to get half the words. You know,

1276
01:06:41,800 --> 01:06:44,240
Speaker 1: Eckler was really good for most of the year, and

1277
01:06:44,600 --> 01:06:46,959
Speaker 1: granted he didn't look as good as Jackson last week

1278
01:06:47,400 --> 01:06:49,800
Speaker 1: makes just a one game samp. Tired and worn down

1279
01:06:49,920 --> 01:06:52,640
Speaker 1: thing is problematic for me. And it wasn't a workhorse.

1280
01:06:52,760 --> 01:06:54,240
Speaker 1: I don't know how tired and worn down he was

1281
01:06:54,360 --> 01:06:56,520
Speaker 1: on eight touches a game. No, but he's been playing

1282
01:06:56,560 --> 01:06:59,480
Speaker 1: special team snaps the whole season and that kind of thing. So,

1283
01:07:00,520 --> 01:07:02,480
Speaker 1: but I covered Actler. I gave him a B as well.

1284
01:07:03,080 --> 01:07:05,760
Speaker 1: Keenan Allen easy A scored a touchdown in four straight

1285
01:07:05,840 --> 01:07:08,960
Speaker 1: since complaining publicly about a lack of targets. Bengals are

1286
01:07:09,000 --> 01:07:11,480
Speaker 1: allowing the ninth most wide receiver yards of this season,

1287
01:07:11,480 --> 01:07:14,440
Speaker 1: a hundred and seventy three per game. Uh Mike and

1288
01:07:14,680 --> 01:07:17,680
Speaker 1: Tyrrell Williams are both on the bench the brothers Williams.

1289
01:07:18,080 --> 01:07:20,880
Speaker 1: Mike is touchdown dependent and has had four or fewer

1290
01:07:20,960 --> 01:07:23,320
Speaker 1: targets in nine straight games, and Tyrrell is in top

1291
01:07:23,360 --> 01:07:26,160
Speaker 1: to fifty yards since the London game in weeks seven.

1292
01:07:26,280 --> 01:07:29,160
Speaker 1: And game script says they'll get up big and slow

1293
01:07:29,240 --> 01:07:31,640
Speaker 1: down the offense. Philip Rivers. I'm still giving an A

1294
01:07:31,720 --> 01:07:34,400
Speaker 1: grade two. Bengals are allowing two or eighty nine yards

1295
01:07:34,720 --> 01:07:38,520
Speaker 1: per game through the air. Sitting on a monster game,

1296
01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:42,040
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers, and congratulations to the Rivers family as Mrs

1297
01:07:42,120 --> 01:07:47,040
Speaker 1: Rivers is now pregnant with kid number nine. That's nine times. Wow,

1298
01:07:47,880 --> 01:07:50,120
Speaker 1: that's a lot of kids. That's a lot of kids.

1299
01:07:51,400 --> 01:07:55,400
Speaker 1: I got a hunch that Mrs Rivers is not is

1300
01:07:55,440 --> 01:07:57,439
Speaker 1: a stay at home mom. I don't think. I don't

1301
01:07:57,440 --> 01:08:02,560
Speaker 1: think she's working along with probably a nan me several nanny. Yes,

1302
01:08:02,840 --> 01:08:05,840
Speaker 1: a wet nurse. Uh. You just have the wet nurse

1303
01:08:05,880 --> 01:08:10,480
Speaker 1: on retainer and you always yes. Uh. De Drey takes

1304
01:08:10,520 --> 01:08:12,720
Speaker 1: on Arizona. Will zip through this one quickly because there's

1305
01:08:12,760 --> 01:08:14,440
Speaker 1: not a lot to talk about from either team. La

1306
01:08:14,440 --> 01:08:17,000
Speaker 1: Garrett Blunt's my highest rated lion. He was might take

1307
01:08:17,000 --> 01:08:20,240
Speaker 1: a chance on me player by running back. Matthew Stafford's

1308
01:08:20,240 --> 01:08:23,000
Speaker 1: on the bench. His issues include a bad back, the

1309
01:08:23,080 --> 01:08:25,600
Speaker 1: trade of Golden Tate, Marvin Jones, trip to i R.

1310
01:08:25,960 --> 01:08:29,120
Speaker 1: Two excellent past defenders he faces in this game against Arizona,

1311
01:08:29,200 --> 01:08:31,640
Speaker 1: Patrick Peterson and Buddha Baker. You put all together and

1312
01:08:31,680 --> 01:08:34,640
Speaker 1: it's a deeply uphill battle for Stafford. Just a C

1313
01:08:34,840 --> 01:08:39,920
Speaker 1: grade on Scott On Scott Fish's guy Kenny Golladay. I

1314
01:08:40,040 --> 01:08:43,240
Speaker 1: can't Peter. I can't imagine Patrick Peterson not shadowing him.

1315
01:08:43,280 --> 01:08:45,840
Speaker 1: Why wouldn't Patrick Peterson shadow in the whole game? So

1316
01:08:46,200 --> 01:08:48,640
Speaker 1: that's you know, you're basically dead right there. Peterson's only

1317
01:08:48,680 --> 01:08:51,080
Speaker 1: giving up two touchdowns in his coverage all year. The

1318
01:08:51,160 --> 01:08:54,240
Speaker 1: average game against Patrick Peterson is twenty three yards in

1319
01:08:54,360 --> 01:08:57,840
Speaker 1: his coverage. So I have I have a C grade

1320
01:08:57,880 --> 01:08:59,559
Speaker 1: most because I was afraid Scott would come over here

1321
01:08:59,560 --> 01:09:04,519
Speaker 1: and punch me the face. Then to the Arizona side,

1322
01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:08,439
Speaker 1: the only, uh my, only really positive player here is

1323
01:09:08,520 --> 01:09:10,800
Speaker 1: David Johnson. The Lions giving up a league worst five

1324
01:09:10,840 --> 01:09:13,360
Speaker 1: point one yards per carry to opposing backs, although much

1325
01:09:13,439 --> 01:09:16,639
Speaker 1: better since Snack Harrison arrived. They've also given a cousin

1326
01:09:16,840 --> 01:09:19,240
Speaker 1: that's right. They've also given up twenty plus carries to

1327
01:09:19,280 --> 01:09:21,559
Speaker 1: opposing backs three times, and in those games the backs

1328
01:09:21,600 --> 01:09:23,880
Speaker 1: average hundred thirty rushing yards in a touchdown per game.

1329
01:09:23,920 --> 01:09:26,680
Speaker 1: Hopefully David Johnson's gonna get the twenty carries I've got

1330
01:09:26,800 --> 01:09:28,840
Speaker 1: to I've got an A grade on David Johnson for

1331
01:09:28,880 --> 01:09:32,040
Speaker 1: this one. Can also be helpful through the air as well,

1332
01:09:32,080 --> 01:09:34,320
Speaker 1: as you already know. Uh, the only other starting grade

1333
01:09:34,400 --> 01:09:37,519
Speaker 1: is is Larry Fitzgerald. He's got a very positive matchup

1334
01:09:37,560 --> 01:09:41,080
Speaker 1: in the slot against Nevin Lawson, and or tease Tabor,

1335
01:09:41,640 --> 01:09:45,160
Speaker 1: but he's entirely touchdown dependent. He's top fifty yards just once.

1336
01:09:45,240 --> 01:09:49,200
Speaker 1: In the Josh Rosen era, Larry Fitzgerald, you can start

1337
01:09:49,280 --> 01:09:51,280
Speaker 1: him and hope for a score on his poultry three

1338
01:09:51,360 --> 01:09:53,639
Speaker 1: catches per game. But that's all you're That's all you're

1339
01:09:53,640 --> 01:09:56,240
Speaker 1: getting from Larry Fitzgerald is that chance for a touchdown.

1340
01:09:56,520 --> 01:09:58,439
Speaker 1: And Josh Rosen's on the bench. He's strown less for

1341
01:09:58,600 --> 01:10:01,840
Speaker 1: less than one nine yards and three straight games. Think

1342
01:10:01,880 --> 01:10:05,599
Speaker 1: about that, less than one nine yards and three straight games.

1343
01:10:05,600 --> 01:10:07,160
Speaker 1: How do you do that in the NFL these days?

1344
01:10:07,360 --> 01:10:11,080
Speaker 1: That's like Lamar Jackson. That is bad. Final set of

1345
01:10:11,120 --> 01:10:14,400
Speaker 1: matchups coming up when we come back, including the Eagles.

1346
01:10:14,439 --> 01:10:17,519
Speaker 1: Do you trust Golden Tate? Now find out when we

1347
01:10:17,640 --> 01:10:22,560
Speaker 1: come back. This is Fantasy Football Weekly presented by Devannies.

1348
01:10:22,960 --> 01:10:48,519
Speaker 1: On the final segment of a playoff edition of Fantasy

1349
01:10:48,560 --> 01:10:52,280
Speaker 1: Football Weekly, Paul Archie and Scott Fish Matt Harrison with you.

1350
01:10:52,360 --> 01:10:55,280
Speaker 1: We've got a handful of matchups to knockdown, and then

1351
01:10:55,320 --> 01:10:57,800
Speaker 1: we will get to your calls. Lightning round, including several

1352
01:10:57,840 --> 01:11:00,040
Speaker 1: people from out of town nice enough to hold a

1353
01:11:00,200 --> 01:11:03,640
Speaker 1: long time, and I appreciate everybody's patience. Today, Scott Philadelphia

1354
01:11:03,720 --> 01:11:07,360
Speaker 1: takes on Dallas. Golden Tate finally looked like the guy

1355
01:11:07,479 --> 01:11:09,519
Speaker 1: for the Eagles that he had been for the Lions,

1356
01:11:09,560 --> 01:11:12,120
Speaker 1: where he was a highly productive fantasy player. Do you

1357
01:11:12,240 --> 01:11:15,360
Speaker 1: think it continues into this game in a tougher matchup

1358
01:11:15,400 --> 01:11:17,439
Speaker 1: with Dallas? Right and the and the nice thing is

1359
01:11:17,520 --> 01:11:20,240
Speaker 1: he's getting eight targets, eight targets and seven targets last

1360
01:11:20,479 --> 01:11:23,560
Speaker 1: last three weeks. He's he's getting the targets. I do

1361
01:11:24,080 --> 01:11:26,320
Speaker 1: kind of think it continues, But the Cowboys have been

1362
01:11:26,320 --> 01:11:29,960
Speaker 1: pretty tough lately. They've allowed the second fewest receptions, fourth

1363
01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:33,080
Speaker 1: fist yards, and third fewest touchdowns to wide receivers. Now

1364
01:11:33,240 --> 01:11:35,200
Speaker 1: that's the problem. I only gave Tate a C grade.

1365
01:11:35,240 --> 01:11:37,720
Speaker 1: I think the targets might get him there, though I'm

1366
01:11:37,760 --> 01:11:40,160
Speaker 1: giving whence you know, the leader of the offense. I'm

1367
01:11:40,160 --> 01:11:42,120
Speaker 1: giving him a B grade. He had three sixty and

1368
01:11:42,240 --> 01:11:45,360
Speaker 1: two against the Cowboys in Week ten. These two teams

1369
01:11:45,479 --> 01:11:47,200
Speaker 1: usually get up for each other, so I think that

1370
01:11:47,320 --> 01:11:49,759
Speaker 1: he might be able to overcome how good that Cowboys

1371
01:11:49,840 --> 01:11:52,160
Speaker 1: d has looked recently, especially against the Saints the other week.

1372
01:11:52,320 --> 01:11:54,479
Speaker 1: Right and Matt Ryan held to a one touchdown game.

1373
01:11:55,040 --> 01:11:58,000
Speaker 1: So I think Whence gets up for it just just

1374
01:11:58,240 --> 01:11:59,640
Speaker 1: enough for a B, and I think it spreads in

1375
01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:01,640
Speaker 1: a round a lot. You know Hurts is going to

1376
01:12:01,720 --> 01:12:03,639
Speaker 1: get the A grade. He had four teen for one

1377
01:12:04,320 --> 01:12:08,320
Speaker 1: and two against the couples last time. Although you know

1378
01:12:08,520 --> 01:12:10,800
Speaker 1: this is an old John Habermeyer theory, and I think

1379
01:12:10,840 --> 01:12:14,439
Speaker 1: he's right more often than not when these um when

1380
01:12:14,680 --> 01:12:18,080
Speaker 1: interdivisional rivals play each other, if one thing, you know,

1381
01:12:18,400 --> 01:12:21,280
Speaker 1: cause one one guy blew up, the next time they

1382
01:12:21,360 --> 01:12:23,880
Speaker 1: play the defense place, just to take that that away.

1383
01:12:24,080 --> 01:12:27,759
Speaker 1: This is classic Arts too, because and this is different matchup,

1384
01:12:28,240 --> 01:12:31,599
Speaker 1: but Art's against Washington for like four years was awesome

1385
01:12:31,840 --> 01:12:34,880
Speaker 1: and then not good. Like against Washington, his December game

1386
01:12:34,880 --> 01:12:38,839
Speaker 1: against Washington every year was amazing. Uh egilars two inconsistent,

1387
01:12:38,920 --> 01:12:42,320
Speaker 1: so I have him on the bench. Jeffrey, he has

1388
01:12:42,360 --> 01:12:45,000
Speaker 1: between thirty and fifty yards and no touchdowns in five

1389
01:12:45,120 --> 01:12:48,720
Speaker 1: straight since the since the Golden Tape trade. Hal Sean

1390
01:12:48,760 --> 01:12:51,960
Speaker 1: Jeffrey's average line three and a half catch up thirty

1391
01:12:52,040 --> 01:12:55,599
Speaker 1: eight yards scores exactly four tea for one in that span,

1392
01:12:56,080 --> 01:12:59,400
Speaker 1: these tight ends have outscored him. C J. John Smith,

1393
01:12:59,600 --> 01:13:04,200
Speaker 1: Vance Donald something named fer Sir for Tennessee, Rhett Ellison,

1394
01:13:04,320 --> 01:13:08,360
Speaker 1: Tyler Higbee, These these crap tight ends scoring Alshon Jeffrey

1395
01:13:08,439 --> 01:13:11,200
Speaker 1: since Golden Take came to town. Uh. I gave a

1396
01:13:11,360 --> 01:13:13,880
Speaker 1: B grade to Josh Adams and I have spoils on

1397
01:13:13,920 --> 01:13:16,120
Speaker 1: the bench. The B grade to Josh Adams is because

1398
01:13:16,160 --> 01:13:19,600
Speaker 1: he's chocked up twenty plus touches in consecutive games. The

1399
01:13:19,720 --> 01:13:23,599
Speaker 1: yards per carry isn't great, but I gotta give him

1400
01:13:23,600 --> 01:13:26,200
Speaker 1: a beyond that amount of opportunity in an in division game.

1401
01:13:27,479 --> 01:13:31,200
Speaker 1: On the other side, I give Prescott a C grade. UH.

1402
01:13:31,360 --> 01:13:35,200
Speaker 1: Since Week seven, only Drew Brees has had multiple touchdowns

1403
01:13:35,320 --> 01:13:38,680
Speaker 1: against Philly or over three hundred yards multiple touchdowns or

1404
01:13:38,720 --> 01:13:41,439
Speaker 1: over three hundred yards against Philly. That doesn't speak well,

1405
01:13:41,520 --> 01:13:44,120
Speaker 1: But Dak just had two of his best three games

1406
01:13:44,240 --> 01:13:46,479
Speaker 1: of the year. The defense is looking a lot better,

1407
01:13:46,520 --> 01:13:48,519
Speaker 1: which puts him on the field more, and he's tacking

1408
01:13:48,560 --> 01:13:53,640
Speaker 1: on rushing touchdowns touchdowns. In games in which Dak Prescott averages.

1409
01:13:54,120 --> 01:13:56,439
Speaker 1: In games on which he gets the rushing touchdown, he's

1410
01:13:56,479 --> 01:13:59,840
Speaker 1: on average, he's quarterback eight. If he does not get

1411
01:14:00,000 --> 01:14:03,760
Speaker 1: you are rushing touchdown, he's quarterback twenty two. And you

1412
01:14:03,800 --> 01:14:06,320
Speaker 1: want to know who quarterback twenty two is this year.

1413
01:14:07,040 --> 01:14:09,640
Speaker 1: It's Blake Bortles. So if you do not get the

1414
01:14:09,720 --> 01:14:13,040
Speaker 1: rushing touchdown from Doc, you're starting Blake Bortles. That's how

1415
01:14:13,080 --> 01:14:15,320
Speaker 1: important it is to get the rushing touchdown. So he's

1416
01:14:15,360 --> 01:14:17,439
Speaker 1: got to sea hoping for that. He's at five in

1417
01:14:17,520 --> 01:14:20,040
Speaker 1: the last seven games, so you've got to hope for

1418
01:14:20,040 --> 01:14:21,560
Speaker 1: it a little bit. But I think he'll, you know,

1419
01:14:21,800 --> 01:14:24,679
Speaker 1: be barely startable here. I gave Cooper and Zeke a's

1420
01:14:24,880 --> 01:14:27,479
Speaker 1: because Cooper is averaging eight targets per games since joining

1421
01:14:27,520 --> 01:14:29,720
Speaker 1: the Cowboys. He's had seventy five yards and or a

1422
01:14:29,800 --> 01:14:32,599
Speaker 1: touchdown in four those five. Eagles are allowing the second

1423
01:14:32,640 --> 01:14:36,080
Speaker 1: most receptions and second most yards to watch receivers. Zeke's obvious.

1424
01:14:36,160 --> 01:14:39,240
Speaker 1: I don't think I need Yeah, that goes without saying. Um.

1425
01:14:39,520 --> 01:14:42,479
Speaker 1: Speaking of obvious place, Pittsburgh takes on Oakland. It's start

1426
01:14:42,520 --> 01:14:45,719
Speaker 1: all your Steelers right and A grades virtually across the board.

1427
01:14:46,120 --> 01:14:49,680
Speaker 1: Virtually across the board. A for Antonio and Juju uh

1428
01:14:50,280 --> 01:14:52,639
Speaker 1: Juju is averaging a hundred eight yards per game over

1429
01:14:52,680 --> 01:14:55,040
Speaker 1: his last four weeks, with half a touchdown per game.

1430
01:14:55,479 --> 01:14:57,800
Speaker 1: Ben gets an A grade. The home road splits do

1431
01:14:57,960 --> 01:15:01,400
Speaker 1: not exist anymore. The low yardage mark on the road

1432
01:15:01,479 --> 01:15:03,920
Speaker 1: this year is two hundred seventy yards, and he's thrown

1433
01:15:04,040 --> 01:15:07,000
Speaker 1: at least a touchdown in every game on the road.

1434
01:15:07,160 --> 01:15:09,680
Speaker 1: He's also had two rushing touchdowns in the last three

1435
01:15:09,840 --> 01:15:12,960
Speaker 1: road games. It's a little interesting after two straight losses,

1436
01:15:13,040 --> 01:15:15,160
Speaker 1: the Steelers are looking at a Raiders defense that it's

1437
01:15:15,200 --> 01:15:18,040
Speaker 1: allowed the most passing scorers in the league. Ben's gonna

1438
01:15:18,080 --> 01:15:21,479
Speaker 1: get right, Vance McDonald. I'm giving an A grade. Six

1439
01:15:21,640 --> 01:15:23,960
Speaker 1: different tight ends have scored a touchdown on the Raiders

1440
01:15:24,000 --> 01:15:26,920
Speaker 1: in their last six games. Three different Colts and two

1441
01:15:27,000 --> 01:15:29,400
Speaker 1: different Chiefs tight ends scored against the Raiders in the

1442
01:15:29,479 --> 01:15:33,000
Speaker 1: last few weeks too. As an emergency dart throw. Jesse

1443
01:15:33,200 --> 01:15:37,320
Speaker 1: James is not a terrible play Jalen Samuel's He's getting

1444
01:15:37,320 --> 01:15:39,800
Speaker 1: a B. I gave Stephen Ridley a C grade. James

1445
01:15:39,880 --> 01:15:42,040
Speaker 1: conners out this week the Steeler said they're gonna go

1446
01:15:42,200 --> 01:15:45,000
Speaker 1: running back by committee. I do not believe them. They

1447
01:15:45,240 --> 01:15:48,800
Speaker 1: never have done that in Mike Tomlin's tenure. Uh, sam

1448
01:15:48,880 --> 01:15:52,479
Speaker 1: Stephen Ridley sucks. Yeah, let's just be honest. Samuels was

1449
01:15:52,560 --> 01:15:56,120
Speaker 1: a college running back, fullback, wide receiver, and tight end. Yes,

1450
01:15:56,280 --> 01:15:58,599
Speaker 1: he has the ability to be involved in the passing game.

1451
01:15:59,080 --> 01:16:01,679
Speaker 1: Uh and that's of a hallmark of the Steelers running

1452
01:16:01,720 --> 01:16:04,040
Speaker 1: backs in the past. They're usually involved in the passing game.

1453
01:16:04,080 --> 01:16:06,160
Speaker 1: He caught three balls for twenty and a score last

1454
01:16:06,200 --> 01:16:09,240
Speaker 1: week along with the two carries he had. Oakland's allowing

1455
01:16:09,320 --> 01:16:11,360
Speaker 1: the most rushing yards per game to running backs a

1456
01:16:11,439 --> 01:16:13,840
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty per game, so Samuel's is a pretty

1457
01:16:13,840 --> 01:16:16,840
Speaker 1: good start over. On the other side, here's the deal

1458
01:16:16,920 --> 01:16:19,880
Speaker 1: at the Raiders. Are you chasing the stats from last week?

1459
01:16:20,160 --> 01:16:25,120
Speaker 1: Because Jalen Rashardon Doug Martin Martin both looked good. Derek

1460
01:16:25,200 --> 01:16:27,679
Speaker 1: Carr was not a complete embarrassment. He had two eighty

1461
01:16:27,760 --> 01:16:30,479
Speaker 1: five and three scores last week against the Chiefs. In fact,

1462
01:16:30,560 --> 01:16:34,639
Speaker 1: he hasn't thrown an interception since Week five, seven straight games,

1463
01:16:34,880 --> 01:16:38,040
Speaker 1: and the completion percentage is a very nice six on

1464
01:16:38,160 --> 01:16:41,880
Speaker 1: the season. Jordy Nelson did not retire, had ten catches

1465
01:16:41,920 --> 01:16:45,240
Speaker 1: for ninety seven yards. Jared Cook had a hundred yards

1466
01:16:45,280 --> 01:16:47,840
Speaker 1: in a score last week. That being said, every one

1467
01:16:47,880 --> 01:16:49,840
Speaker 1: of them is on the bench. The Steelers are a

1468
01:16:49,920 --> 01:16:54,240
Speaker 1: top twelve defense against passing yards allowed, rushing yards allowed,

1469
01:16:54,479 --> 01:16:57,760
Speaker 1: yards per carry, receptions for running backs and receiving yards

1470
01:16:57,800 --> 01:17:00,439
Speaker 1: for running backs, and in their last five games, the

1471
01:17:00,479 --> 01:17:03,559
Speaker 1: Steelers rank in the top ten in receiving yards allowed

1472
01:17:03,600 --> 01:17:07,160
Speaker 1: to wide receivers, tight ends, and touchdowns allowed to both

1473
01:17:07,200 --> 01:17:09,880
Speaker 1: of those positions as well. There's nothing to like here

1474
01:17:09,880 --> 01:17:14,880
Speaker 1: about a top ten Steelers defense and a mediocre Oakland offense.

1475
01:17:15,880 --> 01:17:19,200
Speaker 1: Final matchup is the Monday night game, Vikings taking on

1476
01:17:19,400 --> 01:17:24,400
Speaker 1: the Seahawks. It's um plenty, it's a meati matchup, and

1477
01:17:24,680 --> 01:17:26,840
Speaker 1: uh but we will still plenty of time for lightning rounds,

1478
01:17:26,840 --> 01:17:28,800
Speaker 1: so I encourage you. Lines are full now, of course,

1479
01:17:28,920 --> 01:17:30,760
Speaker 1: but I encourage you to dial in when you hear

1480
01:17:30,800 --> 01:17:33,280
Speaker 1: people drop. Uh. Wait, let's be at the passing game

1481
01:17:33,320 --> 01:17:37,160
Speaker 1: for the Vikings. Seahawks secondary is slumped over the past

1482
01:17:37,240 --> 01:17:40,000
Speaker 1: six games, giving up over the past six averages of

1483
01:17:40,160 --> 01:17:44,320
Speaker 1: three yards and two touchdowns. And more specifically, the Seahawks

1484
01:17:44,360 --> 01:17:46,639
Speaker 1: are a lot exactly two passing touchdowns in those six

1485
01:17:46,840 --> 01:17:49,240
Speaker 1: straight games, all of them to touchdowns. I think Kirk

1486
01:17:49,280 --> 01:17:51,320
Speaker 1: finds his way to at least two touchdowns here, which

1487
01:17:51,520 --> 01:17:55,680
Speaker 1: gives them a B grade. Uh. Kirk's receivers have got

1488
01:17:55,760 --> 01:17:58,400
Speaker 1: positive matchups, and I've got A grades on both digs

1489
01:17:58,520 --> 01:18:01,960
Speaker 1: and Theeling digs Go was primarily up against Seattle cornerback

1490
01:18:02,040 --> 01:18:06,519
Speaker 1: Trey Flowers, who got ruined by Dante Pettis last week,

1491
01:18:06,640 --> 01:18:10,000
Speaker 1: and then if when he also sees Shaquille Griffin, he's

1492
01:18:10,040 --> 01:18:11,599
Speaker 1: given up a score and each of the last two

1493
01:18:11,760 --> 01:18:13,840
Speaker 1: no team runs a higher percentage of pass plays in

1494
01:18:13,880 --> 01:18:16,680
Speaker 1: the vikings, and Diggs is the more targeted of the two,

1495
01:18:16,760 --> 01:18:18,679
Speaker 1: So we'll go with Stephan Diggs in an A grade.

1496
01:18:18,880 --> 01:18:22,719
Speaker 1: Adam Feeling will primarily line up against slot cornerback Justin Coleman,

1497
01:18:22,760 --> 01:18:27,240
Speaker 1: who's just okay um, he's the last three games he's

1498
01:18:27,400 --> 01:18:29,799
Speaker 1: he's been good, but this is still a strongly positive

1499
01:18:29,840 --> 01:18:33,080
Speaker 1: matchup for Theelan who has scored or topped one yards

1500
01:18:33,120 --> 01:18:36,559
Speaker 1: and eleven of twelve starts. Staying with the passing game,

1501
01:18:36,600 --> 01:18:38,960
Speaker 1: I've got a C grade and Kyle Rudolph. Teams are

1502
01:18:39,000 --> 01:18:41,479
Speaker 1: targeting their tight ends on just sixteen percent of their

1503
01:18:41,479 --> 01:18:44,400
Speaker 1: passes against the Seahawks, which does not bode well. Uh.

1504
01:18:44,479 --> 01:18:47,880
Speaker 1: Kyle Rudolph's best games have come when Feeling and Digs

1505
01:18:47,920 --> 01:18:51,400
Speaker 1: of each scene ten ten or more targets, and Seattle

1506
01:18:51,439 --> 01:18:54,280
Speaker 1: has given up the six most passes per game over

1507
01:18:54,360 --> 01:18:56,920
Speaker 1: the last three games. So maybe there's just just the

1508
01:18:57,040 --> 01:18:59,400
Speaker 1: plethora of running game work well or passing game work

1509
01:18:59,439 --> 01:19:01,760
Speaker 1: will ultimately helped to Routolph. But just to see grade

1510
01:19:01,760 --> 01:19:03,960
Speaker 1: and really preferre you kept him on the bench, let's

1511
01:19:04,000 --> 01:19:06,880
Speaker 1: go to Let's go to Dalvin Cook. Every Viking fan

1512
01:19:07,000 --> 01:19:08,960
Speaker 1: wants to see more of Dalvin Cook after last week

1513
01:19:09,120 --> 01:19:11,800
Speaker 1: when he averaged nine yards to carry. Since Week nine

1514
01:19:11,840 --> 01:19:14,360
Speaker 1: against the Seahawks, every lead back is top to one

1515
01:19:14,439 --> 01:19:18,240
Speaker 1: hundred yards and or scored except one. So if the

1516
01:19:18,800 --> 01:19:21,280
Speaker 1: Seahawks run defense has not been great, and you know

1517
01:19:21,439 --> 01:19:23,519
Speaker 1: after last week, there feels like a mandate to get

1518
01:19:23,560 --> 01:19:26,000
Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook much more involved, I've gotta be grade on him.

1519
01:19:26,000 --> 01:19:28,839
Speaker 1: I think they will do that here. Latavius Murray's touchdown

1520
01:19:28,880 --> 01:19:30,560
Speaker 1: dependent will leave him on the bench. Let's go to

1521
01:19:30,640 --> 01:19:35,840
Speaker 1: the Seahawks side, Russell Wilson. It's for me, the whole

1522
01:19:35,880 --> 01:19:39,040
Speaker 1: thing depends on Trey Waynes. I've got a B grade

1523
01:19:39,040 --> 01:19:41,600
Speaker 1: on Wilson right now. I'd i'd consider upgrading him to

1524
01:19:41,640 --> 01:19:43,280
Speaker 1: A if you told me Trey Waynes was not gonna

1525
01:19:43,320 --> 01:19:45,240
Speaker 1: go in this matchup and he is not practiced yet.

1526
01:19:45,320 --> 01:19:47,680
Speaker 1: But it's a Monday nighter, there's still a chance he

1527
01:19:47,760 --> 01:19:50,880
Speaker 1: practices today and if that happens, that opens up the

1528
01:19:50,960 --> 01:19:54,280
Speaker 1: door for Waynes potentially to uh to get something done

1529
01:19:54,320 --> 01:19:56,519
Speaker 1: in this and get on the field for this matchup.

1530
01:19:56,600 --> 01:20:00,160
Speaker 1: It's working his way through the concussion protocol. Now it's

1531
01:20:00,160 --> 01:20:02,719
Speaker 1: a tough matchup with the Vikings. Aside from that Rams

1532
01:20:02,800 --> 01:20:06,360
Speaker 1: meltdown in Week four, the Vikings average game against is

1533
01:20:06,400 --> 01:20:09,880
Speaker 1: just two hundred thirty passing yards and zero point nine

1534
01:20:09,960 --> 01:20:13,360
Speaker 1: passing touchdowns per game. That's it. Four The past five

1535
01:20:13,439 --> 01:20:17,439
Speaker 1: quarterbacks to face the Vikings haven't even topped one passing yards.

1536
01:20:18,240 --> 01:20:21,439
Speaker 1: But for his part, Russell Wilson has been terrific, multiple

1537
01:20:21,520 --> 01:20:24,960
Speaker 1: passing touchdowns in every game but one, including three or

1538
01:20:25,080 --> 01:20:27,720
Speaker 1: more scores, and half of his starts. Now Russell's not

1539
01:20:27,800 --> 01:20:30,200
Speaker 1: doing anymore is rushing. He has no rushing touchdowns this year.

1540
01:20:30,400 --> 01:20:32,439
Speaker 1: They don't have design rushing plays. He's got to get

1541
01:20:32,520 --> 01:20:34,240
Speaker 1: done with his arm in a tough matchup. But again,

1542
01:20:34,280 --> 01:20:36,000
Speaker 1: if Trey Waynes doesn't go, I like him more. And

1543
01:20:36,080 --> 01:20:38,599
Speaker 1: that brings us to Tile Lock Tyler Lockett, because that's

1544
01:20:38,640 --> 01:20:41,040
Speaker 1: the guy that you want. Wayne's on. Thai Locking is

1545
01:20:41,080 --> 01:20:43,120
Speaker 1: one of the fastest receivers in the league. Wayne is

1546
01:20:43,120 --> 01:20:45,400
Speaker 1: one of the faster cornerbacks in the league. That's a

1547
01:20:45,680 --> 01:20:50,439
Speaker 1: perfect one on one matchup for Trey Waynes. Lockett parlays

1548
01:20:50,520 --> 01:20:53,360
Speaker 1: these three catches of games into scores better than anybody

1549
01:20:53,400 --> 01:20:56,599
Speaker 1: scored in nine different games this year. So if Waynes

1550
01:20:56,680 --> 01:21:00,519
Speaker 1: can't go tier Lock it's an A. If Wayne's does go,

1551
01:21:01,000 --> 01:21:05,040
Speaker 1: I dropped Tyler Locket down to a C. Doug Baldwin

1552
01:21:05,160 --> 01:21:08,200
Speaker 1: may not play after missing practice the last couple of games, UM,

1553
01:21:08,360 --> 01:21:09,880
Speaker 1: and he runs out of the slot and he'll see

1554
01:21:09,880 --> 01:21:13,519
Speaker 1: a vastly improved McKenzie Alexander either way. So if Baldwin goes,

1555
01:21:14,080 --> 01:21:15,960
Speaker 1: you maybe a C at best. But I don't know

1556
01:21:16,040 --> 01:21:17,800
Speaker 1: that he's gonna play, and I think you're safer leaving

1557
01:21:17,880 --> 01:21:21,240
Speaker 1: him on the bench. Also, David Moore, I don't think

1558
01:21:21,280 --> 01:21:23,360
Speaker 1: you want to start in this matchup either. He's only

1559
01:21:23,400 --> 01:21:25,640
Speaker 1: playable and easy matchups. This is not one of them.

1560
01:21:25,720 --> 01:21:28,600
Speaker 1: Let's go to the running game. Since Week eight, the

1561
01:21:28,720 --> 01:21:31,080
Speaker 1: Vikings have only allowed two runners to score on the

1562
01:21:31,160 --> 01:21:33,920
Speaker 1: ground um, and they haven't been playing scrubs over that time. Either.

1563
01:21:33,960 --> 01:21:37,080
Speaker 1: They've held carry On Johnson and Check Jordan Howard, Sony Michelle.

1564
01:21:37,120 --> 01:21:39,160
Speaker 1: None of them found the end zone or top three

1565
01:21:39,240 --> 01:21:42,679
Speaker 1: point eight yards per carry. Curse Car. Carson's getting about

1566
01:21:42,800 --> 01:21:45,720
Speaker 1: two thirds of the snaps and then the other third

1567
01:21:45,800 --> 01:21:47,640
Speaker 1: go to Penny and Davis. So you gotta leave on

1568
01:21:47,760 --> 01:21:49,800
Speaker 1: the bench because they're just not getting enough work here

1569
01:21:49,880 --> 01:21:53,080
Speaker 1: and the matchups very difficult. A C grade on Carson,

1570
01:21:53,439 --> 01:21:58,680
Speaker 1: a bench grade on the others. That brings us to

1571
01:21:58,840 --> 01:22:05,719
Speaker 1: lightning round. Your calls your toughest question between two players,

1572
01:22:05,960 --> 01:22:09,120
Speaker 1: one question between two players. We have plenty of time

1573
01:22:09,200 --> 01:22:10,519
Speaker 1: to get to a lot of you. I know this

1574
01:22:10,640 --> 01:22:12,320
Speaker 1: is a big week, this is the playoffs. You need

1575
01:22:12,360 --> 01:22:14,160
Speaker 1: to win, and we're here to help. We got to

1576
01:22:14,200 --> 01:22:17,360
Speaker 1: bring the a game advice here. All all this year,

1577
01:22:17,520 --> 01:22:21,360
Speaker 1: we've been coasting, purposely giving out bad advice, waiting until

1578
01:22:21,400 --> 01:22:23,680
Speaker 1: the playoffs to give the good advice. Well, especially to

1579
01:22:23,800 --> 01:22:28,080
Speaker 1: people from Wisconsin to uh Raw Josh and Philadelphia. Hello,

1580
01:22:28,160 --> 01:22:31,240
Speaker 1: thank you for your patience. Josh, Hey, guys, no problem.

1581
01:22:31,320 --> 01:22:38,280
Speaker 1: Appreciate the insight all year. Or Winston Scott. I think

1582
01:22:38,560 --> 01:22:43,559
Speaker 1: I have Wilson higher. Yeah, Wilson, I'm surprised. I don't.

1583
01:22:43,600 --> 01:22:46,559
Speaker 1: I'm worried about that Viking defense. If we break the tie,

1584
01:22:46,600 --> 01:22:50,000
Speaker 1: I think it's Winston. Winston was my take so, Yeah,

1585
01:22:50,360 --> 01:22:52,840
Speaker 1: they're really close for me. You know, if you told

1586
01:22:52,920 --> 01:22:55,519
Speaker 1: me for sure tray Wains was out, I'm I'm listening

1587
01:22:55,560 --> 01:22:57,360
Speaker 1: to the Winston side, but we don't know right now,

1588
01:22:57,400 --> 01:22:59,000
Speaker 1: and I don't know if we're gonna know by tomorrow

1589
01:22:59,040 --> 01:23:02,080
Speaker 1: morning when you gotta make that that decision. Josh, We're

1590
01:23:02,120 --> 01:23:05,200
Speaker 1: on Winston to play it safe. Thank you for listening

1591
01:23:05,240 --> 01:23:11,120
Speaker 1: from Philadelphia. I appreciate that. Tom. Hello, Hello, thanks for

1592
01:23:11,200 --> 01:23:13,880
Speaker 1: taking my college gentlemen, and I have a total strategy

1593
01:23:14,000 --> 01:23:17,880
Speaker 1: question to ask a wide receiver. My opponent has Jamie

1594
01:23:17,920 --> 01:23:21,680
Speaker 1: Winston and you're playing Godwin. I have Humphreys that I

1595
01:23:21,760 --> 01:23:25,479
Speaker 1: could throw in, or I could avoid that matchup and

1596
01:23:25,640 --> 01:23:29,760
Speaker 1: play tennis from San Francisco. Which would you prefer to

1597
01:23:29,840 --> 01:23:33,560
Speaker 1: do to play the receiver against your protos quarterback or

1598
01:23:33,680 --> 01:23:37,840
Speaker 1: go away from that team and take Let me Tim, Tom,

1599
01:23:37,920 --> 01:23:39,920
Speaker 1: let me ask you this. If everybody just sort of

1600
01:23:40,000 --> 01:23:42,800
Speaker 1: plays out to the way they probably play out, do

1601
01:23:42,840 --> 01:23:45,759
Speaker 1: you think you're the favorite or are you the underdog?

1602
01:23:47,080 --> 01:23:50,560
Speaker 1: Exactly projected for the same score within two tenths of

1603
01:23:50,680 --> 01:23:54,599
Speaker 1: the point and a standard leave Matt, what do you think? Uh?

1604
01:23:55,280 --> 01:23:58,000
Speaker 1: In that case, I think you go upside and you

1605
01:23:58,160 --> 01:24:01,800
Speaker 1: cheer against the Bucks hard, So I'd go Pettis and

1606
01:24:01,960 --> 01:24:04,760
Speaker 1: not not play the Humphries angle and just hope that

1607
01:24:05,200 --> 01:24:08,519
Speaker 1: New Orleans just rolls. And actually there's supposed to be

1608
01:24:08,600 --> 01:24:11,960
Speaker 1: some bad weather in that game. There's potentially potential rain

1609
01:24:12,120 --> 01:24:15,840
Speaker 1: and weather concerned. So yeah, I go Pettis. Dave, you're

1610
01:24:15,880 --> 01:24:21,200
Speaker 1: on the fan, Dave? Hello, Yeah, come here all right?

1611
01:24:21,920 --> 01:24:26,920
Speaker 1: BlackBerry Guy? Hey, full point PPR. Austin Equer, Aaron Jones,

1612
01:24:27,320 --> 01:24:29,920
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones, I love even since I'm my top five

1613
01:24:30,080 --> 01:24:33,720
Speaker 1: this week, so we'll take Aaron Jones um and Blueberry Guy.

1614
01:24:34,479 --> 01:24:41,360
Speaker 1: So Austin, Hello, join Jackson Mixing? That was Justin Jackson

1615
01:24:41,479 --> 01:24:45,719
Speaker 1: or mixing? I believe. I think Justin Jackson's gotta split

1616
01:24:45,800 --> 01:24:47,920
Speaker 1: just enough and mixing is gonna get all the volume.

1617
01:24:47,960 --> 01:24:50,200
Speaker 1: It's a tough matchup, but I'd rather have mixing, all right,

1618
01:24:50,439 --> 01:24:55,840
Speaker 1: and the other way and hello to point PPR. I've

1619
01:24:55,880 --> 01:24:59,519
Speaker 1: got Listonmatory or Dare Peterson. Both of them are great,

1620
01:25:00,040 --> 01:25:04,160
Speaker 1: Ko or Adrian. How strongly do you feel in your

1621
01:25:04,320 --> 01:25:08,960
Speaker 1: your B grade of McCoy church um? Actually feel pretty

1622
01:25:09,000 --> 01:25:13,960
Speaker 1: good to Chest's defense bad all right? Where where do

1623
01:25:14,000 --> 01:25:17,200
Speaker 1: you have him in your ranks. Um, hang on, this

1624
01:25:17,400 --> 01:25:20,639
Speaker 1: is close. I'd lean Adrian. I know you'd probably lean McCoy,

1625
01:25:20,800 --> 01:25:25,479
Speaker 1: but they're really, really tight. I've got Um, I've got

1626
01:25:25,560 --> 01:25:29,120
Speaker 1: Adrian at twenty five, and i've got McCoy at thirty.

1627
01:25:29,560 --> 01:25:34,920
Speaker 1: All right, let's go Adrian. Okay, Matt, you're next. Hey, guys,

1628
01:25:35,000 --> 01:25:37,320
Speaker 1: I'm starting Jack right now, but something's been bugging me

1629
01:25:37,320 --> 01:25:40,200
Speaker 1: all week to replaced him in favor of Jamis. What

1630
01:25:40,240 --> 01:25:42,800
Speaker 1: do you think I would? Here's the problem. You know,

1631
01:25:42,920 --> 01:25:44,960
Speaker 1: Dad doesn't again, if he doesn't get the rushing score,

1632
01:25:45,040 --> 01:25:47,960
Speaker 1: he hurts you. So I think I would play. I'd

1633
01:25:47,960 --> 01:25:51,840
Speaker 1: play Jamis Winston in that one. Mark, You're next? Hi,

1634
01:25:52,160 --> 01:25:57,280
Speaker 1: um or ppr wow to come to this? For Joe Mixon,

1635
01:25:58,640 --> 01:26:02,320
Speaker 1: I'm such a trick And he said so boom er bust.

1636
01:26:04,120 --> 01:26:08,240
Speaker 1: Maybe he's not the safe call. He's not the same.

1637
01:26:08,479 --> 01:26:11,600
Speaker 1: There's nothing safe about the Bengals anymore. It depends on

1638
01:26:11,680 --> 01:26:13,599
Speaker 1: what you need. Do you need the safety of ten

1639
01:26:13,720 --> 01:26:16,479
Speaker 1: points from Joe Mixon or do you need the upside

1640
01:26:17,680 --> 01:26:21,479
Speaker 1: from track one? Yeah? I see if our second of

1641
01:26:21,600 --> 01:26:28,760
Speaker 1: three marks? Hello, oh Hi, Mark, Mark, Standard Lee, Chub

1642
01:26:29,000 --> 01:26:33,960
Speaker 1: or Lindsay, I'm gonna go Chub but I don't like

1643
01:26:34,120 --> 01:26:37,120
Speaker 1: what the what what it's looking like for the Broncos

1644
01:26:37,200 --> 01:26:39,720
Speaker 1: offense when when Emmanuel goes down, I think that whole

1645
01:26:39,800 --> 01:26:41,680
Speaker 1: offense has to run through Lindsay, and I think that

1646
01:26:41,760 --> 01:26:44,439
Speaker 1: they can stack the box against him. I still love Lindsay.

1647
01:26:44,560 --> 01:26:48,599
Speaker 1: I can't I can't not love Philip Lindsay, Chris Hello, Hight,

1648
01:26:49,160 --> 01:26:52,479
Speaker 1: Drake Smith or Pettist. I'm going to gainst the team

1649
01:26:52,479 --> 01:26:58,439
Speaker 1: with Barkley, Jones, Savante and David Johnson. Wow, that's a

1650
01:26:58,479 --> 01:27:01,000
Speaker 1: good See he needs the upside. Yeah, but they both

1651
01:27:01,080 --> 01:27:04,160
Speaker 1: have but they both have good upside in this one. See.

1652
01:27:04,160 --> 01:27:07,040
Speaker 1: I would take Pattis three touchdowns in the last two games.

1653
01:27:07,479 --> 01:27:09,880
Speaker 1: He gives you plenty of upside without all the risk

1654
01:27:10,000 --> 01:27:14,360
Speaker 1: that comes with Tray Kwon Smith, Brad you are next? Yeah?

1655
01:27:14,600 --> 01:27:20,160
Speaker 1: Four point ppr Z Jones or Allen Robinson. Okay, I

1656
01:27:20,280 --> 01:27:22,760
Speaker 1: like sa Jones far more, even though Chicago should be

1657
01:27:22,840 --> 01:27:24,760
Speaker 1: playing from behind a little bit and they're gonna need

1658
01:27:24,800 --> 01:27:26,800
Speaker 1: the offense. I like a Jones a lot this week. Mark,

1659
01:27:26,840 --> 01:27:32,360
Speaker 1: You're on the fan further playoff? Baker, Sorry, say one

1660
01:27:32,400 --> 01:27:38,200
Speaker 1: more time. Baker may feel a little Okay, that's tight,

1661
01:27:39,280 --> 01:27:41,479
Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield. You take a chance. I mean, guy, Lamar

1662
01:27:41,640 --> 01:27:45,639
Speaker 1: Jackson has been a top five Fantasy quarterback since taking over.

1663
01:27:46,120 --> 01:27:49,360
Speaker 1: I go Lamar. I think they're safety there. Yeah, there

1664
01:27:49,439 --> 01:27:51,400
Speaker 1: is a certain amount of safety with a rushing quarterback

1665
01:27:51,439 --> 01:27:54,120
Speaker 1: who's downside feels like sixty rushing yards well, and his

1666
01:27:54,960 --> 01:27:59,000
Speaker 1: matchups a lot better to Dave. You are next? Okay,

1667
01:27:59,200 --> 01:28:03,040
Speaker 1: standard league, Landry or Tates. I have went starting at quarterback.

1668
01:28:03,960 --> 01:28:06,840
Speaker 1: Landry's got a fantastic matchup and we saw signs of

1669
01:28:06,920 --> 01:28:09,479
Speaker 1: life last week. I'm taking Jarvis Landry in this one.

1670
01:28:09,840 --> 01:28:14,639
Speaker 1: Josh your next? Yeah, I need two wide receivers Tyllard

1671
01:28:14,640 --> 01:28:19,680
Speaker 1: Boyd Smith. But yeah, you know it's been the same

1672
01:28:19,800 --> 01:28:23,400
Speaker 1: rules for three years. Josh, I'm sorry. It's one question

1673
01:28:23,520 --> 01:28:29,679
Speaker 1: between two guys. Scott you are next. Yeah, standard scoring Kelsey,

1674
01:28:30,880 --> 01:28:35,560
Speaker 1: Oh geez. Seriously. By the way, we talked earlier in

1675
01:28:35,600 --> 01:28:37,800
Speaker 1: the show about how in the first round those two

1676
01:28:37,840 --> 01:28:40,080
Speaker 1: guys are gonna go, a lot of people are going

1677
01:28:40,120 --> 01:28:43,040
Speaker 1: to try to take both. Yeah, so I would totally

1678
01:28:43,120 --> 01:28:49,280
Speaker 1: understand that at the player pool. Ye, absolutely, I guess Kelsey. Yep,

1679
01:28:49,560 --> 01:28:52,439
Speaker 1: That's where I'm going, right, go Kelsey to Ravens are

1680
01:28:52,479 --> 01:28:55,400
Speaker 1: good defense they're great defense. The one weakness with the

1681
01:28:55,520 --> 01:28:58,120
Speaker 1: Ravens tight end. As I mentioned earlier in the show,

1682
01:28:58,160 --> 01:28:59,840
Speaker 1: they've given up tight end touchdowns in five of the

1683
01:29:00,120 --> 01:29:03,799
Speaker 1: six weeks. And it's the second meeting against Dallas. Dallas

1684
01:29:03,880 --> 01:29:09,200

1686
01:29:14,120 --> 01:29:18,920
Speaker 1: the the unmotivated Matt Stafford or Case Keenum. Oh no, really,

1687
01:29:20,560 --> 01:29:23,000
Speaker 1: you should get down four players really quick and just

1688
01:29:23,439 --> 01:29:31,840
Speaker 1: just I can't. I can't start Case. I can't start

1689
01:29:31,920 --> 01:29:35,920
Speaker 1: Case this week. No, Emmanuel Sanders Stafford against the Cardinals. Yeah,

1690
01:29:36,439 --> 01:29:39,640
Speaker 1: I can't do it. I know. Well there's that, but

1693
01:29:48,680 --> 01:29:50,599

1694
01:29:50,600 --> 01:29:53,280
