Co host today Scott Fish and Thor. 8 00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 1: Nice from you. 9 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:33,159 Speaker 3: It's been a while. Good to have you back. It 10 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:35,920 Speaker 3: has all the way SAIDs week six. I only missed 11 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 3: one week, but it was with Matt, so I understand 12 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:39,280 Speaker 3: that feeling like it took forever. 13 00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:44,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, and Colin mccockney obliterates everybody around him. Yeah. 14 00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 3: I missed you guys though. Yeah. 15 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,560 Speaker 1: Nice to have you back. Yes, Oh and you are Oh. 16 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:48,920 Speaker 4: Thanks. 17 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:52,640 Speaker 3: It was the first time in my eight years on 18 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:54,800 Speaker 3: this show you've let me have my birthday weekend off. 19 00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 1: I know, normally I work you on. We had a 20 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 1: lot to get two no bye weeks, so we gotta 21 00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:04,960 Speaker 1: cram in all the games, so we're gonna just roll 22 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:07,399 Speaker 1: up our sleeves and get started. Of course, over the 23 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 1: course of the show, we will give you take a 24 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:12,399 Speaker 1: chance to meet the three tough questions, premature speculation, but 25 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,039 Speaker 1: we're gonna begin here. Scott Yes Skills take on the 26 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,120 Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals in a game that should have a lot 27 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 1: of fantasy factors in it. 28 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:21,480 Speaker 3: Well, you would think so, you'd think so. These are 29 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 3: two offenses that have been pretty good lately. On the 30 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,960 Speaker 3: Philadelphia side. The Bengals are allowing the most rushing attempts 31 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 3: and rushing yards to quarterbacks. I'm trying to figure out. 32 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:33,400 Speaker 3: Let me look at the numbers to see if that's 33 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 3: something that would help Jalen Hurts. Yeah, yeah, that makes sense. 34 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 3: That makes sense for him averaging seven rushing attempts per 35 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 3: game average or averaging ten per game minimum of seven 36 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 3: in every game, Jalen Hurts has multiple scores in all 37 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 3: but one game, and the Bengals are a top five 38 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 3: fantasy matchup for quarterbacks, allowing four multiple score days out 39 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 3: of seven and including a couple three hundred yard day. 40 00:01:58,000 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 3: So I do have an A grade on Jalen Hurts 41 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 3: his wide receivers AJ Brown and DeVonta Smith. I got 42 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 3: an A grade on AJ Brown Cincinnati allowing the eighth 43 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,079 Speaker 3: most fantasy points to the perimeter as well. Brown has 44 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 3: five plus catches in all three games. His yardage total 45 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 3: in his three fall games one hundred nineteen, one hundred 46 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 3: and sixteen, and eighty nine, so he scored in all 47 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:20,080 Speaker 3: three of them. Scored in each one. Yeah, DeVonta Smith 48 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 3: with a B grade actually playing more snaps than Brown, 49 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 3: but less stats. More inconsistent. But history has shown us 50 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 3: that when Dallas Goddard is out, which he is again 51 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 3: this week, his volume goes up. It didn't quite show 52 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 3: up last week, oh, in negative two yards exactly. But 53 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 3: I'm gonna blame a little bit of Barkley, them wanting 54 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 3: to get Bartley Barkley his numbers against his old team. 55 00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 3: Maybe a little bit of game script that would led 56 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:48,280 Speaker 3: to less passing. I got the B grade over here 57 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 3: on DeVonta Smith. With Dallas Goddard out again, I don't 58 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 3: have grand Calcata starting. He put up a pretty poor game. 59 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 3: I thought, given what he did the week before with 60 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 3: Goddard out, maybe there'd be a chance. But no played 61 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 3: almost the entire game. Didn't do anything last week. On 62 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 3: the Cincinnati side, Joe Burrow Philly does boast a top 63 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 3: three fantasy defense against quarterbacks, with the fifth fewest yards 64 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,079 Speaker 3: and eight fewest scores. But let's take a deeper look 65 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 3: at those six games, the three of them with Jordan Love, 66 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 3: Kirk Cousins, and Baker Mayfield. Those guys averaged two hundred 67 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,079 Speaker 3: and eighty two yards and two scores, even got extra 68 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 3: one on the ground. Deshaun Watson, Daniel Jones, and Derek 69 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 3: Carr averaged one hundred and thirty six yards and only 70 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 3: scored once total. 71 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:30,920 Speaker 1: Point being good quarterbacks have plenty of success, and Joe 72 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:32,919 Speaker 1: Burrow might be the best of all of them, so 73 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,400 Speaker 1: I do have an eight grade here on him. 74 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 3: I have A and B grades on Jamar Chase and 75 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 3: T Higgins. Jamar Chase's fantasy fantasy's wide receiver one with 76 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,480 Speaker 3: six scores. In the last five games, the Eagles have 77 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 3: allowed eight wide receiver scores, but they've kept the yardage 78 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 3: fairly low. Part of that is due to Cleveland and 79 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 3: New York Giants matchups of the last couple weeks New 80 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 3: York Giants without neighbors obviously, prior to that, in their 81 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 3: first four games, every wide receiver one scored. Three of 82 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 3: the wide receiver twos scored in those four games, so 83 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 3: scores might be likely here. T Higgins leads the NFL 84 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 3: and targets per game over the last four and more 85 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 3: targets than Chase in four straight. He's averaging six and 86 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 3: a half catches for seventy five yards with three scores 87 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,279 Speaker 3: in those last four games. So good grades on both 88 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 3: of those guys. Right now. On the running game, Chase 89 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:24,799 Speaker 3: Brown's the only one. I'm sorry starting sorry Zach Moss 90 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 3: there charge seven to twelve touches last three weeks, but 91 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 3: he hasn't been able to top fifty two yards this season. 92 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,840 Speaker 3: Chase Brown Over the last four games, Brown's averaging over 93 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 3: fifteen touches, has four scores. Three of the four games 94 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 3: were inefficient, though Philly's d ranks third best against runners. 95 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 3: His volume pass catching plus propensity to score though, I'm 96 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 3: going to give him the seed, the volume seed, you know, 97 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 3: and hope he gets some pass game work in a score. 98 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:52,159 Speaker 1: That makes sense. 99 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 5: Four. 100 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 1: Let's go to Tennessee taking on Detroit. The Tennessee offense 101 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: is erect, their defense is pretty good, and I'll be 102 00:04:58,480 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 1: I'm interested to hear what you have to say about 103 00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 1: the Lions. But back on the Tennessee side, anybody to 104 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 1: play here? 105 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 6: Oh, it's grizzly you're certainly not going to play Mason Rudolph. 106 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 6: I think one guy that is playaball Tony Pollard. Give 107 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 6: him a see. Sixteen carries for sixty one yards last 108 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 6: week against Buffalo's bad run defense. Yeah, that was what 109 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 6: Taja Spears sideline. Spears is backish questionable return to practice 110 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 6: Friday with a hamstring. Because of the uncertainty there, I 111 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 6: would keep Taj Spears on the bench, but I would 112 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 6: start Pollard. The matchup is much tougher in this game, though, 113 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 6: Lions are allowing the third fewest fantasy points to running 114 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 6: backs Kelvin Ridley. I struggle with this one. I did 115 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 6: give them a see though he returned to practice on 116 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 6: Friday had the foot injury. Wide receiver sixty nine fantasy 117 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 6: points per game. It's a tough scene, obviously, and even 118 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 6: if you. 119 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 1: Give him all of DeAndre Hopkins catches, he'd move to 120 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: like wide receiver sixty three. 121 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 6: Now this might just be the optimistic part of me, 122 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 6: and this might be considered a logical leap, but I 123 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,160 Speaker 6: hope they start using him in the offense as he 124 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 6: is intended to be used. 125 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 4: Now getting some of those. 126 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 6: Targets, certainly the targets will go up, but hopefully targets 127 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,600 Speaker 6: that are more advantageous to Ridley's game. He's just been 128 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 6: used as a deep bult guy to this point. You're 129 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 6: wasting his route running. Not that they have the quarterback 130 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:17,279 Speaker 6: play to hit him on the hands every play, but 131 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 6: obviously he becomes a clear wide receiver one with Hopkins 132 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 6: gone clear, clear clear, this is a decent matchup for him. 133 00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 6: Detroit has allowed the eighth most receiving yards per game 134 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 6: to perimeter wide receivers, so I did stick Ridley with 135 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,719 Speaker 6: a see the rest of the guys in the Titans 136 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 6: bench grades. 137 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,520 Speaker 4: Moving over to the Lions, Jared Goff give him a B. 138 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 6: At least twenty two point eight fantasy points in three 139 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 6: straight games. 140 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 4: This is a sneaky bad matchup, though. 141 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 6: The Lions run the ball at the third highest rate 142 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 6: in the NFL, and when they're up, it goes up 143 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 6: even more. 144 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:50,799 Speaker 4: It's just run, run, run, run, run. 145 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 6: Detroit to double digit favorites in this game, and the 146 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 6: Titans have a good pass defense. We're still wondering if 147 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 6: Lagerius sneed will play, but a good pass defense nonetheless, 148 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 6: and will the pass volume be there for golf That's 149 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:03,359 Speaker 6: why I had to downgrade him to a B. I 150 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 6: also gave a BA to David Montgomery RB thirteen and 151 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,480 Speaker 6: Fantasy points per game. He's averaging sixteen touches for eighty 152 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 6: six total yards. Tennessee has the third highest stuff rate, 153 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 6: though they have a pretty strong run defense, and that 154 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 6: defense has allowed only one running back to rush for 155 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 6: over sixty yards all season long, Jamiir Gibbs. 156 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 4: I give him an A. 157 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 6: I obviously must start and along with aman Ras Saint Brown, 158 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 6: especially in this with Jamis and Williams suspended. 159 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 3: On Montgomery and Gibbs. How do we feel about the 160 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,240 Speaker 3: Sonic and Knuckles nickname David Montgomery calls them. 161 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: I like it. 162 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 3: I like it. 163 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, I like that too. 164 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 1: I'm glad we're you know, we've moved past thunder Lightning. Yeah, 165 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: it's unique, it's different, it's video games. 166 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 3: I love it. I like it. 167 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 4: I like it too. 168 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 1: Last one, which one Sonic and which ones? I assume 169 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 1: Sonic David Knuckless, OK, I got it. 170 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 6: The couple of games where Jameis Williams is out. I 171 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 6: wonder if that will help Sam Laporta, a guy who 172 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 6: has not gotten as many targets this seasons. Why he's 173 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 6: only tight end twenty one in Fantasy points per game 174 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 6: and only participating in roughly two thirds of the routes 175 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 6: available for Detroit. But Laporta does ring number ten in 176 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 6: separation rate, So you wonder, now if he gets more 177 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 6: targets with that Jamison Williams vacates, could he be more 178 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 6: viable for fantasy. 179 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 4: I'll give Laporte a B A B this week. 180 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:21,239 Speaker 1: I know Scott I are dying. We all took Laporte 181 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 1: in a lot of leagues. 182 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 3: Well, Laporta and Richardson might be my worst calls a year. 183 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 1: Oh that's it, Okay, okay, Let's move over to the 184 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 1: Green Bay Packers and the Jacksonville Jaguars. Lot's going on here. 185 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,719 Speaker 1: I've got a grades on the pack two parts of 186 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: the Packers passing game, Jordan Love Jaden Reid. In totality, 187 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 1: the Jaguars the worst pass defense in the league. They 188 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,559 Speaker 1: give up the most passing touchdowns. They drank thirtieth and 189 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 1: passing yards their thirty second in imposer passer ratings. So 190 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 1: for Reid, he runs almost entirely from the slot, he'll 191 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: face a defense that gave up a slot touchdown last 192 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:57,679 Speaker 1: week to kJ Osborne the leak before two touchdowns to 193 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 1: Keenan Allen from the slot. So we like and read 194 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: this one. It's always hard to figure out who who 195 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 1: are the Green Bay wide receivers you can trust? I 196 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 1: trust Romeo Dobbs. 197 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 5: Here. 198 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: Dobbs is the most reliable target earner across the board 199 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 1: among all of them. He leads the team in routes run, 200 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 1: he is second in targets and targets per route, and 201 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 1: he'll match it most stopping against Ronald Darby, who ranks 202 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 1: his Pro Football Focuses cornerback ninety five. He's given up 203 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 1: three scores already, an opposer passer rating of one hundred 204 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,040 Speaker 1: and thirty three B grade on Romeo Dobbs and a 205 00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 1: C grade on Dune Tavian Wicks and Christian Watson. They're 206 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 1: down at sea because they just get less targets, so 207 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: you get a massive variation in volume and output. But 208 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:40,959 Speaker 1: if you're not going to start them against the Jaguars, 209 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 1: why are they on your roster? 210 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:43,079 Speaker 3: Fair? 211 00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 1: I mean, this is it. This is the best matchup 212 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,719 Speaker 1: you're gonna get all year. So Watson and Wix get 213 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 1: C grades in this one. Tucker Kraft comes in with 214 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 1: an A grade three good games in the last four weeks, 215 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 1: and with Luke Musgrave hurt, his routes run if basically doubled, 216 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 1: and as you can guess, the Jaguar are awful against 217 00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 1: tight ends. They're getting rocked by basically tight ends in 218 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:08,319 Speaker 1: every week since Week three. Last week, the Patriots offense 219 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 1: generated twelve catches and one hundred and twenty four yards 220 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 1: to tight ends against the Jaguars. Two weeks ago, the 221 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:19,959 Speaker 1: Jaguars gave up two touchdowns to Cole Kmet, so Tucker 222 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: Craft definitely in play. That only leaves us with Josh Jacobs. 223 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 1: Jaguars are a better run defense than a pass defense, 224 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: but Jacobs is a likely beneficiary no matter what happens here. 225 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 1: Jaguars haven't allowed a runner at the top ninety one yards, 226 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 1: which is good. They shut down the Patriots last week, 227 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:37,680 Speaker 1: but that doesn't mean a lot, and they've also faced 228 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 1: a lot of garbage runners. Two weeks ago, DeAndre Swift 229 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: rolled up one hundred nineteen total yards. Jacobs is probably 230 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:44,720 Speaker 1: closer to that. I think he hits about one hundred 231 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 1: yards of this game, and I've got an eight. 232 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 3: Grade h well, he finally score. 233 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:53,960 Speaker 1: Yes, okay, color shot, Tank Bigsby moving to the Jacksonville side. 234 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: All right, so now you guys all though I feel 235 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 1: about Tank Bigsby. Yes, So now we got Travis ETN 236 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: coming in as a game time decision. Let me ask 237 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 1: you too, knowing Doug Peterson, if ETN is available, who starts? 238 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 3: I think I think it's probably mostly Bigsby, But I 239 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 3: think ETN still gets the past game work somehow. 240 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:21,080 Speaker 4: I'm going to say ETN. 241 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,680 Speaker 1: I don't trust Doug Peterson to get this right. I either, 242 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 1: but it's so obvious that Tank Bigsby is the better back. 243 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 1: Let me give you some bitta. 244 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 3: I will say we Tank Bigsby has taken over and 245 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 3: ETN has not logged a full practice since this takeover, 246 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 3: so we have not seen a healthy ETN. But yes, 247 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 3: Bigsby's numbers are awesome. 248 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,439 Speaker 1: They are, and let me tell you more about that. Yeah, 249 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,959 Speaker 1: the Jaggars have won two games. In those two games, 250 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: Tank Bigsby one hundred one yards and one hundred eighteen 251 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:55,560 Speaker 1: yards four touchdowns in those two games. Doug Peterson, you 252 00:11:55,559 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 1: think just like survival instinct, right, natural selection, survival the 253 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 1: fittest right, his jobs on the line, you would think 254 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 1: he would go to Tank Bigsby no matter what. In 255 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:10,960 Speaker 1: yards per rush, tank Bigsby ranks number two in the NFL. 256 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:15,680 Speaker 1: Travis ETN twenty ninth avoided tackle rate, Tank Bigsby is 257 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 1: second in the NFL ETN is twenty seventh. In yards 258 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 1: after contact, Tank Bigsby is number one in the NFL 259 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 1: ETN is thirty fifth. I want to believe Tank Bigsby 260 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: is going to get plenty of use in this game, 261 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 1: and he's got a B grade for me. Let's go 262 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 1: to if Travis Etn plays. You can start him at 263 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 1: a C grade level if he's active for this game. 264 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 1: But again, I'm basing that mostly on me, not trusting 265 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,599 Speaker 1: Doug Peterson to get this thing right. Green Bay is 266 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 1: a middle of the pack round defense, but volume backs 267 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 1: tend to do well. The four backs with more than 268 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: twenty two carries against green Bay have had monster games, 269 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:53,959 Speaker 1: averaging one hundred and twenty five yards and one a 270 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,120 Speaker 1: half touchdown. So if ETN doesn't go, I like Bigsby 271 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 1: a lot better. All right, let's go to the passing 272 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: game here, or I've got some starters for Jacksonville Lawrence. 273 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 1: This is an unpopular narrative, but over the last three weeks, 274 00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 1: Lawrence has been good, completing seventy four percent of his 275 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: passes two hundred and sixty six yards per game, two 276 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 1: to two and one score. Over the last three weeks, 277 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,960 Speaker 1: Packers have improved their pass defense by benching Eric Stokes. 278 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 1: In the two stokeless games, green Bay has completely shut 279 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 1: down Kyler Murray and c J. Stroud. Those are two 280 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,720 Speaker 1: pretty good passers better than Trevor Lawrence. So I can 281 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:28,440 Speaker 1: only get you to a C grade here. Even with 282 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,319 Speaker 1: his improved play, Brian Thomas gets a seed grade. He's 283 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 1: Thomas has looked great and he's going to be a star. 284 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: I don't love this matchup. He's going to see a 285 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 1: lot of Jay R Alexander. The past two number one 286 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:42,440 Speaker 1: receivers to face Green Bay have fared very poorly. Marvin 287 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 1: Harrison didn't catch a pass, and then last week Stefan 288 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 1: Diggs and Tank Dell combined for twenty three yards. C 289 00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:53,720 Speaker 1: grade on Brian Thomas. Christian Kirk is always a risky start, 290 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:55,679 Speaker 1: but I like this matchup enough for a C grade. 291 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 1: The Packers new slot coverage man is safety Javon Bullard. 292 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 1: Since the move move to the slot. Bullard has allowed 293 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 1: eight of nine passes in his coverage to be completed. 294 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 1: We'll try Christian Kirk at a sea level here. The 295 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: guy I really like seven Ingram. He's finally healthy and 296 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,079 Speaker 1: a massive contributor for the Jaguars offense. In the past 297 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 1: two weeks, He's been targeted fifteen times. He's caught fifteen passes. 298 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 1: The Jaguars have allowed a tight end touchdown or over 299 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,760 Speaker 1: fifty yards or both to a tight end in four 300 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 1: of the last five games. Some kind of optimistic about 301 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:32,280 Speaker 1: Evan Ingram continuing to play well, big part of this offense. 302 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,720 Speaker 1: When we come back, take a chance on me nine 303 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,600 Speaker 1: players not normally in your starting lineup. Find out who 304 00:14:38,640 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 1: they are when we come back Fantasy Football Week. We 305 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:24,160 Speaker 1: will guarantee a smile with these take a chance on 306 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 1: me players, beginning with Scott Fishing. You take a chance 307 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 1: on me quarterback. 308 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 3: Yes, But before I give you a player to take 309 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 3: a chance on, I'm gonna mention Saquon Barkley, who I 310 00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 3: didn't in the last segment, who was an automatic a 311 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty seven yards a game of Bengals 312 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 3: defense allowing a rushing touchdown every game. 313 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I thought I had just missed him because 314 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 1: you had said something like super fast, like automatic idea, 315 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 1: So I just thought I missed it. But now we've 316 00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 1: clarified not that anybody was going to bench him. 317 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, so my my take a chance on me, quarterback. 318 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 3: I'm going with to a tongue of Biloa. In his return, 319 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 3: he gets a Cardinals defense allowing multiple scores and or 320 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 3: three hundred yards in five of seven games, leading them 321 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:08,040 Speaker 3: to be a top five easiest matchup for fantasy passers. 322 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,000 Speaker 3: His first and only full game, he had three hundred 323 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 3: and thirty eight in a score. I expect a good 324 00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 3: game here from him. 325 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:17,040 Speaker 1: All right, thorn Eistrom, you'll take a chance I me quarterback. 326 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 4: I can't believe I'm doing this. 327 00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 6: Boys, I'm gonna advocate for Bonix for the first time 328 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 6: in my professional career. 329 00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 1: Wait, who's he playing. 330 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 4: He's playing the Panthers. 331 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 3: Ah, this makes sense as good. 332 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 4: A matchup as you can get. Now everybody knows. 333 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:32,640 Speaker 6: I don't think Bonix is an NFL caliber thrower, but 334 00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 6: the rushing production is making him fantasy relevant. He's either 335 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 6: a clip sixty yards rushing or ran for a touchdown 336 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 6: in five games so far this season, and has multiple 337 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 6: passing touchdowns in two of his last three games. The Panthers, 338 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 6: of course, have a terrible defense both against the run 339 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 6: and the pass. Last week, Carolina allowed twenty fantasy points 340 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 6: to Marcus Mariota. On the season, the Panthers have allowed 341 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 6: the fourth most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks. The 342 00:16:57,320 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 6: one thing I was wondering, will the Panthers score enough 343 00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 6: for the Broncos to do anything on offense? But the 344 00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 6: scrambling a boat next, He's gonna accrue the yards anyway. 345 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:05,919 Speaker 3: Do you want two fun stats on that? 346 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 1: No, Well, well it depends if involved in this matchup, 347 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:13,159 Speaker 1: then Russian does not related. We're gonna talk more. 348 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:14,640 Speaker 3: We'll talk about later. We'll talk. 349 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 1: I've got a guy I did not think i'd be 350 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 1: picking at any point this season as might take a 351 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 1: chance on me, and that is justin Herbert against the 352 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 1: Saints normally a very tough start because the low passing 353 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: volume in this Jim Harbaugh offense, Los Angeles rinks twenty 354 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 1: ninth in pass attempts per game and air Bears average 355 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,400 Speaker 1: game is a depressing one hundred and ninety seven yards 356 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 1: of one score. But the Saints normally pretty capacity defense 357 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,199 Speaker 1: just all banged up with injuries. Marshall Latimer is going 358 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 1: to try to play, but he's hurt. Paulson Adabo went 359 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 1: on injury reserve. Three of the past five opposing passers 360 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 1: have topped three hundred eleven yards or more against the Saints. 361 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:53,399 Speaker 1: We'll try Justin Herbert here, by the way, get all 362 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 1: his receivers back and off. I don't know if they're 363 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:58,200 Speaker 1: fully off the injury report, but they all came back 364 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 1: to practice on Friday, so that helps to Let's go 365 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 1: to the running back position, Scott, who. 366 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,440 Speaker 3: You got, Yeah, I got Buffalo's Ray Davis. He goes 367 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,720 Speaker 3: up against the Seahawks defense allowing five point two yards 368 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,879 Speaker 3: per carry, second, most rushing yards allowed, first, most combo 369 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 3: yards allowed, and they're allowing over thirty touches per game 370 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:17,879 Speaker 3: to running backs. After James Cook has done, there's gonna 371 00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 3: be some meat on the bone left for him. And 372 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 3: he outtouched Ty Johnson last week seven to one. He's 373 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 3: he's gonna be the guy that gets the extra work. 374 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:30,159 Speaker 1: You know what's a really objectively terrible barbecue sauce? 375 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 3: Okay, sweet baby rays, Okay. 376 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with that tag. Yeah, to catch up 377 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:38,560 Speaker 1: of barbecue sauce. I just wanted to add that on 378 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 1: to the Ray Davis analysis. 379 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:40,640 Speaker 4: It's the correct tag. 380 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 1: I think it was important. Ye okay, all right, Thor 381 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 1: you're taking chance with me running. 382 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 6: Back going with a guy that I don't think has 383 00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:49,119 Speaker 6: a barbecue sauce named after him. But I'm gonna go 384 00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 6: with b not yet anyway, maybe after this game Braylen 385 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 6: Allen against the Patriots. 386 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 4: Now, Braylan only. 387 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,439 Speaker 6: Had three touches for six yards last week against Pittsburgh, 388 00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,440 Speaker 6: and he's played in less than twenty percent of the 389 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 6: Jets is now the past two weeks, so I would 390 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 6: understand trepidation here. However, the Steelers have one of the 391 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,439 Speaker 6: best run defenses in the NFL. Well, the Patriots have 392 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 6: one of the worst. New England also has a funnel defense. 393 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 6: They're good against the pass, but rancid against the run. 394 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,639 Speaker 6: In Week three against the same Patriots, Allen had eleven 395 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:20,119 Speaker 6: carries for fifty five yards and three catches for thirteen yards. 396 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 6: The Patriots have allowed an average of one hundred and 397 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:25,439 Speaker 6: ninety five yards per week and seven total touchdowns to 398 00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 6: running backs ever since then. The Jets are a touchdown 399 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 6: favorite in this game. The game script will be advantageous 400 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 6: for Allen and certainly the matchups as well. 401 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, Todd Downey has largely ignored Braylan Allen to this point, 402 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 1: so we'll need to have a little reversal here. But 403 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 1: the game script could bring that up. 404 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:41,360 Speaker 4: Yes, yes, absolutely, I. 405 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:43,920 Speaker 3: Like using the word rancid. Yeah, and the band. Let's 406 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 3: get the band back in there too. 407 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 1: Thory, you're gonna like this choiceyeh. Might take a chance 408 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 1: to be running back. Come Oni Videll. Yeah. Also against 409 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 1: the Saint than I gave you justin Herbert and I 410 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 1: don't know that Herbert and Videll. Videll can both have 411 00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 1: big games. So man, I don't know what was his 412 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 1: first play? I play it was a thirty eight yards. 413 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 1: The Saints so bad against the run that backup runners 414 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:11,199 Speaker 1: are having good games and this one could be lopsided, 415 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 1: with Videll getting a lot of fourth quarter work against 416 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 1: the Saints. Last week against New Orleans, Denver's backup running 417 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: backs total sixty four yards. The week before that, both 418 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,919 Speaker 1: Sean Tucker and Bucky Irving topped one hundred total yards 419 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:27,480 Speaker 1: and scored. Both of them Tyler Ljeer had a seventy 420 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 1: four total yard game against the Saints, So come on, 421 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:32,400 Speaker 1: e Videll, why not let's give him a try. We've 422 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 1: been talking about him for six months. 423 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, from your lips to God's ears, sir, let's hope, 424 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:36,680 Speaker 4: so at. 425 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 1: Least your ears, Scott. Let's go to your take a 426 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:40,520 Speaker 1: chance with the receiver. 427 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm gonna get a little deeper here on a 428 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:46,119 Speaker 3: passing offense you wouldn't expect. I'm going with Alec Pierce 429 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 3: against Houston. They allow the ninth most fantasy points to 430 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:52,359 Speaker 3: the perimeter. They also allowed the highest average depth of 431 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,639 Speaker 3: target to receivers. Alec Pierce, as you know, leads the 432 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 3: NFL and a dot average upth of targets and yards 433 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:03,439 Speaker 3: per recap. Indianapolis throws at the throws the highest average 434 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:06,479 Speaker 3: up of target, as does Anthony Richardson, and they've allowed 435 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 3: five plays of over forty yards. Two of those were 436 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:13,120 Speaker 3: actually Alec Pierce. So I like him this week. 437 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 1: I had that huge week one, right, Yeah, all right, 438 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:17,359 Speaker 1: let's go to your take a chance with the receiver. 439 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 6: So I'm gonna go with Jalen McMillan against the Falcons. 440 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 6: Mike Evans is out multiple weeks course, and Chris Godwin 441 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:27,920 Speaker 6: on IR, so McMillan probably becomes the wide receiver one 442 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 6: here and it's in the position he's most comfortable. I 443 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,239 Speaker 6: believe he will take over the slot role. He has 444 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 6: been miscast as an outside receiver. You move him into this. 445 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 6: I talked about this all spring. He is a natural 446 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:42,439 Speaker 6: slot and I think he steps into Godwin's target heavy 447 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 6: slot role. McMillan got targeted eight times last week when 448 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 6: those guys went down, he only had three catches for 449 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 6: fifteen yards. But the Bucks tip their hand that he 450 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 6: will be heavily used going forward, and this is an 451 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 6: incredible matchup. The Falcons have been absolutely lit up by 452 00:21:57,520 --> 00:21:58,879 Speaker 6: slot receivers. 453 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 4: All season long. I think it happened once more. 454 00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 1: You and I are gonna go ahead to head on this. 455 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 1: Later we'll find out wid wide receiver and I'm I'm 456 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 1: so stoked about this possibility. Cedric Tillman's the Ravens. 457 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 3: Yes. Uh. 458 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 1: He appears to be the primary beneficiary of Amari Cooper's trade. 459 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:18,920 Speaker 1: He's running Cooper's routes. Last week he immediately garnered sixty 460 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,440 Speaker 1: nine snaps. He ran eighty two percent of the routes, 461 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 1: and he saw eleven targets in his first game as 462 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,439 Speaker 1: the starter, and with Winston at the helmet, it's going 463 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:30,359 Speaker 1: to be bombs away for his physical receiver Cedric Tillman, 464 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 1: who can battle for deep contested catches in heavy coverage. 465 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 1: Because Whenson doesn't care if there's heavy coverage, he'll throw 466 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 1: into it anyway. 467 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,480 Speaker 3: Not exactly a burner, but six three, two fifteen, he'll 468 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:41,359 Speaker 3: he'll go up and get. 469 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:42,400 Speaker 1: Something exactly great. 470 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:43,040 Speaker 4: Boss goes on. 471 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:47,479 Speaker 1: Now, the Ravens have cornerback Marlin Humphrey ruled out and 472 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 1: three other cornerbacks are listed as questionable in this game. 473 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 1: I'm really excited for this. I like this Oneed Tilden 474 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,600 Speaker 1: has going to take a chance with me. Guy receiver, 475 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 1: Guy receiver, Guy receiver, guy receiver, Scott Indianapolis Colts taking 476 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,680 Speaker 1: on the Houston Texans. You just told us about Alec 477 00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:09,679 Speaker 1: Pearce go to the quarterback position. Anthony Richardson has struggled 478 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 1: significant He has a passer, but he's not chipping in 479 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 1: running help either. What do you think this week against Houston? 480 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,679 Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, so he had two hundred and twelve and 481 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 3: two scores in Week one against the Texans, and they've 482 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 3: allowed a nine completed pass I know, and they've allowed 483 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 3: multiple scores in five of seven games. Texans have also 484 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 3: been hit on the ground by running quarterbacks Caleb Williams 485 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 3: at forty four yards, Josh Allen fifty four May thirty eight. 486 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 3: Richardson had fifty six and a score in Week one. 487 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,439 Speaker 3: I think there's room here for him to get to 488 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:43,119 Speaker 3: his Z grade, even though the passing side of it 489 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:46,680 Speaker 3: has not been good. Also, in his first two full games, 490 00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 3: he only had five designed runs. In his last two 491 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 3: he's had sixteen. They're starting to actually go back to 492 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 3: using the way they should, agreed. I already mentioned Alec Pierce. 493 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 3: I'm gonna go to Josh Downs, who I have on 494 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,159 Speaker 3: the bench. He has not reached six Fantasy points in 495 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:04,240 Speaker 3: a game with Anthony Richardson playing in full three for 496 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 3: twenty two. 497 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:06,879 Speaker 1: Is his best this year or is that included last year? 498 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 3: Includes last year? 499 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 1: Did he put that into context? Six Fantasy points? Yeah, 500 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:15,359 Speaker 1: that's he catches for thirty yards. He getting there. 501 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 3: He disappears with Anthony Richardson and Alec Pearce comes up. 502 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 3: Jonathan Taylor. Yeah, over to the running game. Jonathan Taylor 503 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 3: on a per game basis, no running back sees more 504 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,280 Speaker 3: inside the five work than Jonathan Taylor. Of course he's third, 505 00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:32,359 Speaker 3: but he did miss three games, so per game basis 506 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:35,119 Speaker 3: is what I'm going with here. It's not an easy 507 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:37,879 Speaker 3: spot as the Texans wearing top ten in yards per carry, 508 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:42,440 Speaker 3: rushing yards, scores, receiving yards, receiving scores, back but basically everything. 509 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,919 Speaker 3: But when Taylor is healthy, and he is now he 510 00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:48,880 Speaker 3: averages nearly twenty touches for over one hundred yards, I'm 511 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 3: still gonna give him the B in a tough matchup. 512 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:54,720 Speaker 3: Michael Pittman, I skipped over for a second, but he 513 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 3: he's off the injury report completely. But I think it's 514 00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:59,639 Speaker 3: kind of a workload thing that they're not having a 515 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:04,720 Speaker 3: practice as much since coming back after hurting his back. 516 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:07,119 Speaker 3: He didn't go on IR, but he was three for 517 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 3: thirty five and one three for sixty three in the 518 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 3: other without a score, only five targets in each game. 519 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 3: I think it's gonna be a little bit better here 520 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 3: for him. I have a C grade on him because 521 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 3: he's just not quite getting the volume since he's hurt 522 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 3: his back. I could see him having a B day 523 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 3: though over to the Houston side just. 524 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 1: Seems to wither and die with Richardson. I like him, he. 525 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 3: Does, but you're still getting five six, you're getting sixty yards, 526 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:36,920 Speaker 3: you're getting touchdown looks. It's really tough to not start 527 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,920 Speaker 3: Michael Pittman over to the Houston side. 528 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:40,200 Speaker 5: C J. 529 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:43,119 Speaker 3: Stroud, I have an A grade on Last week was 530 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:45,359 Speaker 3: definitely rough, but he had three hundred plus yards and 531 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:49,160 Speaker 3: or multiple scores in three straight before that Packers game. 532 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:53,040 Speaker 3: The Colts rank eighth easiest for fantasy quarterbacks, and that 533 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 3: rank would be even worse if it wasn't for three 534 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 3: games of Malik Willis, will Levis and the Miami duo. 535 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 3: Last week would probably be a bunch worse than even eight. 536 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 3: Stefan Diggs gets the B grade. He's scored on four 537 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 3: of his five touches inside the five. He has five 538 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 3: plus catches in all but one game, so that's a 539 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 3: really nice PPR floor. And five different wide receivers have 540 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 3: scored against the Indianapolis Colts. Two more had one hundred 541 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:23,680 Speaker 3: plus games against the Colts, so that's seven different receivers 542 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,399 Speaker 3: with very good games. Digs should get his here. A 543 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 3: C grade for Tank Dell last week. I know he 544 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:31,119 Speaker 3: put up the goose egg, but he was still second 545 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 3: in targets, still saw a couple of red zone looks. 546 00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:36,879 Speaker 3: He just didn't He just didn't get the catches. But 547 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 3: the volume is there. On the running game. Joe Mixon 548 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:45,639 Speaker 3: Colts are fifth worst in miss tackles week two. He 549 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:48,160 Speaker 3: got hurt on the first drive of the second half, 550 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 3: but he's had fifty yards at that point, so if 551 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 3: you count that, if you double that, that's one hundred. 552 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,240 Speaker 3: Joe Mixon's other three fall games, his worst game is 553 00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,639 Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty four yards and he's scored in 554 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 3: all four three of them. 555 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 1: I think he's my number one or number two running Yeah, 556 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 1: I have an a grade on him for sure. For sure. 557 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 1: Thor if we wanted to sneak in Jets Patriots, yeah, 558 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 1: I think we could do that, like three minutes. 559 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 4: I could certainly try. I mean there's not a lot 560 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 4: to talk about, Yeah, mostly. 561 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:15,200 Speaker 1: In Jets Patriots, and you've already hit on at least 562 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 1: one take a chance on me play for sure. 563 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, so certing with the Jets. 564 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:21,200 Speaker 6: Aaron Rodgers give him a be only quarterback twenty one 565 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 6: and fantasy points per game, right, now, but it should 566 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:26,120 Speaker 6: be in for a big game here week three against 567 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:28,640 Speaker 6: the same Patriots, Rodgers scored a season I twenty five 568 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 6: Fantasy points this time around. Of course, he has a 569 00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 6: buddy Deavonte Adams running out there, and the only question 570 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,479 Speaker 6: will the Pats score enough to keep the Jets throwing? 571 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:39,680 Speaker 6: But I give Rodgers to saw Be Brees solid course 572 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 6: is a must start. A Braylen Allen was my take 573 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 6: a chance on me. I gave both DeVante Adams and 574 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:48,120 Speaker 6: Garrett Wilson bees in this We'll start with Adams ran 575 00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 6: ninety percent of routes in his first game as a Jet. 576 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:53,439 Speaker 6: He had a twenty three percent first read share. The 577 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 6: Patriots have allowed the tenth highest PPR point points per 578 00:27:56,600 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 6: target and thirteen more thirteenth most receiving ars per game 579 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 6: to perimeter wide receivers. As for Garrett Wilson twenty seven 580 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 6: percent first read share in his first game with Davonte 581 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:09,480 Speaker 6: Adams last week. Wilson got shadowed by Christian Gonzalez in 582 00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 6: Week three. But the point I want to make is 583 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:13,960 Speaker 6: that will almost assuredly not happen this time, at least 584 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 6: for Garrett Wilson and Gonzalz probably stays on the same side. 585 00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 1: So I'm a believer that Garrett Wilson death gets helped 586 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:22,680 Speaker 1: by DeVante Adams for sure. 587 00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:25,560 Speaker 6: I totally agree with that. Yeah, Rising tide lifts all boats. 588 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:28,159 Speaker 6: You got it, Blizzard and Gronklin, We're keeping them on 589 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 6: the bench. We are also benchally got Drake May. Drake May. 590 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 6: He had the two good Fantasy games, but this is 591 00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 6: a very, very tough matchup, especially with the Jets getting 592 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 6: Hassan Reddick back, So keeping May on the bench. 593 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 4: Ramandra Stevenson, I'm gonna give him a see. He gigged 594 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 4: a great matchup last week against Jacksonville. 595 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 6: Only seven carries for eighteen yards, two catches for seven yards, 596 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 6: played only half the snaps that they took offensively. The 597 00:28:52,800 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 6: Jets have a middle of the road run defense, but 598 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 6: Stevenson did struggle against it last time. Six carries for 599 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 6: twenty three yards end of fumble versus the Jets in 600 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 6: Week three, but I had to give him a seat. 601 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 6: I'm also given a seat to Pop Douglas returns from 602 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 6: illness this week. The passing environment has improved for the Patriots, 603 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 6: of course, but this is a bad matchup, even versus 604 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 6: the Jets defense working through injuries in their secondary. Jets 605 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 6: allow the seventh fewest Fantasy points to opposing wide receivers. 606 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:20,120 Speaker 6: You keep Boute and Polk on the bench. Hunter Henry 607 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 6: last One gave him a bee. He has two consecutive 608 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:26,040 Speaker 6: top eight Fantasy tight end showings. He has been Drake 609 00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:28,720 Speaker 6: May's favorite target. I expect that to continue, and the 610 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:30,880 Speaker 6: Jets defense has struggled against tight ends. 611 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 4: In recent weeks. 612 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:36,480 Speaker 1: Patriots, I believe, have six injured offensive linemen. Who is 613 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 1: just killing everybody to play. Is so bad. 614 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 6: Pas On Reddick saw that and magically yeah magic back. 615 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, funny how that works. 616 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 1: That's that's a real limiting factor on this Patriots offense 617 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 1: and it causes a lot of hesitation. 618 00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 3: Got to believe. 619 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:55,440 Speaker 1: I'm still believing that, like romad Receievens is a good play. 620 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,720 Speaker 4: Just definitely and maybe their best on offense at this point. 621 00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, you know, it's just nobody can be successful 622 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 1: behind that offensive line.

You smile, 634 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:56,280 Speaker 1: big smile every single time Ravens take on the Browns. 635 00:30:56,560 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 1: The highest scoring player in fantasy football is Lamar. The 636 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:04,959 Speaker 1: second highest player scoring player in fantasy football is Derrick Henry. 637 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:09,080 Speaker 1: And they're on the same team. Unbelievable. And they're both 638 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:11,960 Speaker 1: automatic a's. I'm not even gonna get into descriptions about 639 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 1: why they remain a's. You're gonna start them anyway, and 640 00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 1: they're good starts here. How about Jake Flowers? 641 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 3: Which can I mention something that Derrick Henry and I 642 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:22,480 Speaker 3: wish I could get this at exactly correct, but I 643 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 3: saw the top three running backs in the last like 644 00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 3: four years or whatever. Is Derrick Henry? Then Nick Chubb, 645 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 3: then Derrick Henry's yards after contact. 646 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 1: Shut up. That's amazing, that's amazing. 647 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 4: I love it. 648 00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:38,000 Speaker 1: Zay Flowers super hit and miss, but he generally fares 649 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:41,480 Speaker 1: better when Derrick Henry isn't dominating. But unfortunately that's not 650 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 1: very often. The Browns run defense is good enough that 651 00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 1: Henry shouldn't completely run away with the game. Flowers was 652 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 1: a huge dub last week, but over the prior two 653 00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:53,440 Speaker 1: weeks he had garnered twenty one target, sixteen receptions two 654 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:55,640 Speaker 1: hundred and forty three yards. I've got a C grade 655 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:59,080 Speaker 1: on Zay Flowers in this matchup Mark Andrews so frustrating. 656 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,560 Speaker 1: You know what's gonna happen. As soon as you pivot 657 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:04,840 Speaker 1: back to Mark Andrews, He's gonna dud and dud hard. 658 00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 4: We call it the Kyle Pitts corollary. 659 00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:09,360 Speaker 1: Oh, I like it. That's exactly right. But he's posted 660 00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:12,840 Speaker 1: three straight good starts, including last week's two touchdown game. 661 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 1: But here's the thing. Still super dangerous because he's only 662 00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:20,680 Speaker 1: running fourteen routes per game over the last month, and 663 00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 1: the Browns are very good tight end defense. They shut 664 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:27,400 Speaker 1: down brock Bauers, Jake Ferguson zach Ertz. Only one tight 665 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 1: end has scored against Cleveland. I've got a bench grade 666 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 1: on Mark Andrews's go over over to the brown side. 667 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna start with Nick Chubb. Great to see him 668 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,720 Speaker 1: get so much use in his first game back last week, 669 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 1: But this gets thorny a few different ways. First, Dromford 670 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 1: has been ruled out, so he's not really a factor 671 00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 1: in this, so let me just mention that he's out 672 00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:48,760 Speaker 1: of the picture here. But the Ravens are a fantastic 673 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 1: run defense. Baltimore ranks number one in rushing yards allowed, 674 00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 1: just fifty two per game. No back has top forty 675 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: six yards against the Ravens. They are getting beat up 676 00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 1: through the air like for on Monday Night. But that's 677 00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:04,040 Speaker 1: not Nick Chubb's game. So I've just got the C 678 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 1: grade on Nick Chubb. That's all I can do. Cedric 679 00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 1: Tillman was might take a chance at me. Wide receiver 680 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:13,080 Speaker 1: Jerry Juday originally had on the bench, but with Marlon 681 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:15,959 Speaker 1: Humphrey out in three other cornerbacks questionable, I've moved him 682 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 1: up to a C grade. He saw season highs and 683 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 1: snap counts last week. With Amari Cooper out, so like, 684 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 1: if you're looking for like a mundane like five catches 685 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 1: for fifty yards, Jerry Duty could be your guy. David 686 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:31,000 Speaker 1: and Joku comes in with a C grade. Unclear if 687 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:34,200 Speaker 1: Jameis Winston will favor in Djoku, but and Joku's had 688 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 1: twenty one targets the past two weeks, so you know 689 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 1: he remains a strong play. The Ravens are getting destroyed 690 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 1: by tight ends, including the one hundred yarder by Kate 691 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 1: Atten last week and Baltimore allowing the second most tight 692 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:48,080 Speaker 1: end yards for a game. In fact, I'm moving in 693 00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:53,360 Speaker 1: Joco up to a B. Yeah, Jameis Winston unless he's changed, 694 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:57,360 Speaker 1: he's the ultimate yolo quarterback. We saw him two years 695 00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 1: ago in three starts for the Saints before they yanked him, 696 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 1: he averaged twelve passing yards per attempt. To give you 697 00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:07,560 Speaker 1: an idea what that is. Only Anthony Richardson is averaging 698 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:12,240 Speaker 1: twelve yards per attempt this season. Gunslinger gunslinger and does 699 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 1: not matter if guys are covered or not. He'll throw 700 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 1: into triple coverage. 701 00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:15,560 Speaker 4: Doesn't care. 702 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 1: For the past five opposing quarterbacks to face the face, 703 00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:23,279 Speaker 1: the Ravens have thrown multiple touchdowns against them this is 704 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 1: a bad pass defense, allowing the most passing yards three 705 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:29,319 Speaker 1: hundred and eight per game. We haven't seen Winston in 706 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 1: two years, but you know, knocks the rust off here. 707 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:34,960 Speaker 1: I think he's a really really interesting start, and I've 708 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:36,800 Speaker 1: got a C grade on him here. You could convince 709 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:38,719 Speaker 1: me to make him a B grade. Probably should have 710 00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 1: made him take a chance at me quarterback. 711 00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 6: One of my favorite quotes is your own Ford telling 712 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,520 Speaker 6: reporters that Jamis Winston calls plays in the huddle like 713 00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:47,799 Speaker 6: he has a surprise to tell Yes. 714 00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:51,719 Speaker 1: I love that, Yeah, I love that. That's great. Let's 715 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,360 Speaker 1: go to our next matchup, Scott, it's the Arizona Cardinals 716 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:57,400 Speaker 1: taking the Miami doll Hang him the Dolphins. Yeah, Miami 717 00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:03,279 Speaker 1: defense is tricky. Good tell me it. Well they might paper, Yes, yes, 718 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:04,719 Speaker 1: they played a lot of bad teams. What do you 719 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:05,520 Speaker 1: think about the Cardinals? 720 00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, that was going to be part of my point. 721 00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:10,479 Speaker 3: They ranked best against fantasy quarterbacks, no multi score games, 722 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 3: only one passer over one hundred and sixty yards. They 723 00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:14,680 Speaker 3: haven't allowed a QB to score in over a month. 724 00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:16,920 Speaker 3: They did just give up fifty six yards on the 725 00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:21,920 Speaker 3: ground of Richardson, which might be helpful for Kyler Murray. Yeah, 726 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:24,240 Speaker 3: I do have a small caveat on their high ranks. 727 00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:27,800 Speaker 3: Though they've only scored six touchdowns the Dolphins have in total, 728 00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:31,760 Speaker 3: They've scored seventy points in six weeks. That's nineteen fewer 729 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:34,840 Speaker 3: than any other team. They played, the Jags, Pat the Pats, 730 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 3: the Titans, a bunch bunch of really low win teams. 731 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:40,880 Speaker 3: They've been held to twelve points, are fewer in all 732 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 3: the non tour games. Teams don't have to score on them, 733 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:45,240 Speaker 3: they don't have to pass on them at all. 734 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 1: That's part of it game. 735 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:50,600 Speaker 3: So between bad teams and not having to score on 736 00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:54,960 Speaker 3: the Dolphins, maybe their defense isn't that good, but the 737 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 3: numbers are good right now. So I have a C 738 00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:58,759 Speaker 3: grade on Kyler Murray. I think he can get out 739 00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:00,160 Speaker 3: over that. I'm not even going to go one of 740 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:01,720 Speaker 3: the call of duty stuff. 741 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:05,600 Speaker 1: No, what about Marvin Harrison, which has become extremely thorny. 742 00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:08,360 Speaker 3: He's had like two good quarters all year exactly. I 743 00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:10,160 Speaker 3: have a C grade on him. I actually had a 744 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:12,360 Speaker 3: bench grade on him most of the week, and I've decided, 745 00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:13,640 Speaker 3: you know, and I just got to throw a C 746 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:17,680 Speaker 3: grade on him. He's getting six plus targets in most games, 747 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:19,960 Speaker 3: all but one game. Miami does a lot of the 748 00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:22,840 Speaker 3: fewest Fantasy points wide receiver and all that. Mike Clay 749 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,839 Speaker 3: of ESPN thinks that Ramsey may shadow him as he's 750 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:30,719 Speaker 3: shadowed the last two weeks. HiT's a tough matchup. Only 751 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:34,200 Speaker 3: DK Metcalf got past sixty three yards and that was 752 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 3: due to that seventy one yard score. But Marvin Harrison 753 00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:40,120 Speaker 3: forty five percent of his targets have been uncatchable. He's 754 00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 3: shown a little frustration out there. Maybe there's a little 755 00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:45,319 Speaker 3: squeaky wheel and it's got to be the only He's 756 00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:47,360 Speaker 3: just about all they can throw to outside of McBride 757 00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:50,560 Speaker 3: and Connor. Trey McBride, I do have an A grade here. 758 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:54,040 Speaker 3: Third toughest matchup for tight ends, but Trey has been 759 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:57,359 Speaker 3: fairly consistent and the Dolphins have faced basically no tight ends. 760 00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 3: Kincaid fans like Barner Fair, Mallory Granson like just nothing. 761 00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:05,600 Speaker 3: So we really don't know how great they're against tight ends. 762 00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 3: McBride himself averaging five for fifty over seven targets a game, 763 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:12,840 Speaker 3: twenty five percent target share. Yeah, I got an a 764 00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:15,640 Speaker 3: grade there. James Connor is going to get an A grade. 765 00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:19,280 Speaker 3: He has forty missed tackles on the season. Wow, that's 766 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 3: fifteen last week, eleven more than anybody else, which is God. 767 00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:26,719 Speaker 1: Blessed Jane Connor. Connor for extending his career like this 768 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:28,839 Speaker 1: and still being a viable good running back. 769 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:32,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, averaging eighteen for eighty two is basically a coin 770 00:37:32,080 --> 00:37:34,800 Speaker 3: flip to score each week. Over one hundred total yards 771 00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:37,640 Speaker 3: and three the last four and Dolphins allow and a 772 00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 3: whopping four point seven six yards per carry. I got 773 00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 3: an A grade there. I think he can get it 774 00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:45,200 Speaker 3: done as well. Over on the Miami side, Tua was 775 00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:48,000 Speaker 3: my take a chance on me player. Tyreek Hill and 776 00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 3: Jalen Waddle I have B grades on him both. I 777 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:51,960 Speaker 3: could give an A to Tyreek, but he's got this 778 00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:56,439 Speaker 3: foot issue that I'm worried. How much is he gonna play? 779 00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 3: Will will he come out at times? He's the kind 780 00:37:58,560 --> 00:37:59,880 Speaker 3: of guy that likes to be a gamer, but he 781 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:01,080 Speaker 3: will come to the sideline. 782 00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:05,359 Speaker 1: So I am more skeptical on Tyreek just automatically being 783 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 1: the version we saw last year. The most people are 784 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:10,760 Speaker 1: and it's frustrated that even with two out they couldn't 785 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:13,879 Speaker 1: find ways to get the ball right, Yreek Hill right. 786 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 3: I will note part of that B ranking for both 787 00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:20,360 Speaker 3: of them is Arizona ranks bottom ten in yards receptions 788 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,960 Speaker 3: and scores allowed to wide receivers. Hill and Waddle both 789 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:25,440 Speaker 3: went over one hundred yards and Hill scored in that 790 00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 3: first two A game. And Arizona allows the fourth most 791 00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 3: Fantasy points to the slot where Hill goes about thirty 792 00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:33,600 Speaker 3: five to forty percent of the time, and they do 793 00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:36,640 Speaker 3: have favorable matchups. Hill's gonna get Max Melton, who allows 794 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:39,640 Speaker 3: eighty three percent of passes to complete it in his coverage. 795 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:43,759 Speaker 3: They have three cornerbacks with neck with injuries right now 796 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:47,359 Speaker 3: who are questioned about coming in, and Waddle's going up 797 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:50,040 Speaker 3: against Darling Thomas who's allowing one hundred and twenty nine 798 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:52,839 Speaker 3: passerra in his coverage one hundred and twenty three last year. 799 00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:55,880 Speaker 3: So they have some good matchups, so B grades on 800 00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:58,279 Speaker 3: both of them. And in the run game, I have 801 00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 3: Devon ah Chan. Devon a Chan with an A grade 802 00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:07,239 Speaker 3: averages twenty six point eight PPR points when he gets 803 00:39:07,320 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 3: ten plus carries and a healthy TUA. I saw that 804 00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:12,879 Speaker 3: stat this week. I wish I could remember exactly where 805 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:15,120 Speaker 3: I saw it, but he has more than five times 806 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,959 Speaker 3: the targets and averages just under four catches per game 807 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:21,000 Speaker 3: compared to most It, so I'm giving him the A grade. Also, 808 00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,600 Speaker 3: he's got almost all the inside the five looks. Mostard 809 00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:26,560 Speaker 3: only has one. 810 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:28,680 Speaker 1: So which is bizarre what happened last year. 811 00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 3: I'm still giving most of the Sea because this is 812 00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,600 Speaker 3: a team that just like might take a chance on 813 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:37,400 Speaker 3: me runner, a team that allows thirty running back touches 814 00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:40,680 Speaker 3: a week. Montgomery and Gibbs both were able to make 815 00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:43,080 Speaker 3: it work. Jacobs and Emmanuel Wilson were able to make 816 00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:46,360 Speaker 3: it work. Both be viable. So a C grade on most. 817 00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:48,040 Speaker 1: I'm with you on that. And a Chan's not a 818 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:50,560 Speaker 1: workhorse back. I don't know how many different ways they 819 00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:54,040 Speaker 1: can prove it. Yep, Thor. Let's sneak in one more matchup, 820 00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:58,160 Speaker 1: Carolina taking on Denver should not take very long. Got 821 00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:01,000 Speaker 1: about four minutes here. Let's start on the Carolina side 822 00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:02,000 Speaker 1: where they're back to Bryce. 823 00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:02,120 Speaker 5: Hey. 824 00:40:02,600 --> 00:40:04,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, and of course you're keeping them on the bench. 825 00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:06,239 Speaker 6: I don't think I have enough to go into that, 826 00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:07,840 Speaker 6: especially in this matchup. 827 00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:10,080 Speaker 1: Yontae Johnson out, Yeah, exactly. 828 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 829 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:13,240 Speaker 6: Cuba Hubbard, we're gonna give him a c RB sixteen 830 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:15,880 Speaker 6: and fantasy points per game. He needed a touchdown against 831 00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:18,360 Speaker 6: the Commanders to salvage fantasy value last week. 832 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:19,480 Speaker 4: This is a bad. 833 00:40:19,320 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 6: Matchup versus a very good defense. The Broncos allowed the 834 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:26,080 Speaker 6: tenth fewest rushing yards per game. You mentioned Deontay Johnson 835 00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:29,160 Speaker 6: being out, which means that Xavier Lagette, Jalen Coker, and 836 00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:32,640 Speaker 6: Jonathan Mingo are your receiving corps this week. Of course, 837 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:36,520 Speaker 6: Adam Thielan is also out from before last week against 838 00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:39,719 Speaker 6: the Commanders of the Non Johnson wide receivers, Lagett led 839 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:42,320 Speaker 6: the team with thirty well let the non Johnson receivers 840 00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:45,279 Speaker 6: with thirty six snaps. Cocher was second at twenty two. 841 00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:49,480 Speaker 6: Even though Jonathan Mingo started, he had only eleven snaps 842 00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:52,040 Speaker 6: in that game. Through four games and one hundred and 843 00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:55,240 Speaker 6: four snaps, Coker has the highest PFF grade of Panthers 844 00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:58,080 Speaker 6: wide receivers of all of them, including Deontay Johnson. 845 00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:00,680 Speaker 1: Howre you calling a breakout game for Coke right here? 846 00:41:00,840 --> 00:41:03,280 Speaker 6: He's the one that I would sniff around because Patrick 847 00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:06,680 Speaker 6: Surtan is likely to erase Xavier Lagette from this game. 848 00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:08,160 Speaker 4: And here's the other thing. 849 00:41:08,239 --> 00:41:10,799 Speaker 6: Coker has played seventy three and a half percent of 850 00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:13,439 Speaker 6: his snaps in the slot so far. The Broncos pass 851 00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:16,000 Speaker 6: defense is awesome, of course, but Denver is one of 852 00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:18,759 Speaker 6: eleven NFL teams who have allowed forty five percent or 853 00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:22,000 Speaker 6: more of the fantasy point points per game to opposing 854 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:25,320 Speaker 6: receivers to come to the slots as opposed to the boundary. 855 00:41:25,520 --> 00:41:28,440 Speaker 6: That's how you attack them. Jalen Cocher deployed out of 856 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 6: the slot. I think he's gonna get some targets in this. 857 00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:33,640 Speaker 6: I'm gonna give Coker a see and I'm gonna say 858 00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:36,680 Speaker 6: keep Loaguett on the bench because of that, Bonix might 859 00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:37,400 Speaker 6: take a chance on me. 860 00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:37,960 Speaker 3: Quarterback. 861 00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:40,960 Speaker 6: I'm giving Javonte Williams an a at least thirteen carries 862 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:42,680 Speaker 6: for at least sixty yards and three of the past 863 00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:45,080 Speaker 6: four games one hundred and eleven total yards and two 864 00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:47,120 Speaker 6: touchdowns last Thursday against the Saints. 865 00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:48,560 Speaker 4: This is a tremendous matchup. 866 00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:51,200 Speaker 6: To keep the momentum going, the Panthers are allowing the 867 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 6: most fantasy points to opposing running backs Courtland Sutton. The 868 00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:57,520 Speaker 6: afore mentioned Cortland Sutton, I'm gonna give him a sea 869 00:41:57,680 --> 00:41:59,320 Speaker 6: was blanked in the box score last week it was 870 00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:02,440 Speaker 6: even worse than that at zero first read targets. Wow, 871 00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:06,279 Speaker 6: first read looks, I'm sorry, and zero targets. Bonus didn't 872 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:09,560 Speaker 6: even look at him, and that's despite a seventy percent 873 00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:10,279 Speaker 6: route share. 874 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:12,239 Speaker 1: Why it was. 875 00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:15,920 Speaker 6: Crazy, but this should be a bounce back spot. Carolina 876 00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:18,319 Speaker 6: has allowed the most PBR points per target and the 877 00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:21,840 Speaker 6: fourth most yards per game to perimitter wide receivers both 878 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,160 Speaker 6: throw Courtland the ball, So we're gonna get We're gonna 879 00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:24,759 Speaker 6: give him a seat. 880 00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:26,520 Speaker 4: Troy Franklin, I'm gonna keep him on the bench. 881 00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:28,560 Speaker 6: Last week he had the five catchup for fifty yards 882 00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:32,000 Speaker 6: twenty three percent target share. He is a flex option 883 00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:35,000 Speaker 6: in deeper leagues, but in standard leagues I would advise 884 00:42:35,080 --> 00:42:37,719 Speaker 6: keep him on the bench. This Panthers defense has given 885 00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,839 Speaker 6: up over thirty four points per game. How much does 886 00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:43,480 Speaker 6: Bonix air this thing out. We'll have to see on that, 887 00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:45,000 Speaker 6: but only in deeper leagues. 888 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:46,000 Speaker 4: When I start Franklin as a. 889 00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:47,759 Speaker 1: Flex, Yeah, we're gonna watch. 890 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:50,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, how did you let me get through Miami without 891 00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:51,200 Speaker 3: mentioning Johnasmith? 892 00:42:51,520 --> 00:42:53,800 Speaker 1: Well, I thought he just wasn't relevant. 893 00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 5: Enough for you. 894 00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:57,160 Speaker 3: I did have him on the Backshie cards have only 895 00:42:57,200 --> 00:43:00,000 Speaker 3: allowed two ten ends over thirty six yards, just one score, 896 00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:01,399 Speaker 3: and we only had one catch in the full two 897 00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:02,359 Speaker 3: a game earlier this year. 898 00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:03,400 Speaker 1: We loved Jonas Smith. 899 00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:03,640 Speaker 3: We do. 900 00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:05,040 Speaker 1: We only hope for good things for. 901 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:06,319 Speaker 3: Johnasst week last week though. 902 00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:10,120 Speaker 1: Lots of amazing tools at fantasylife dot com.

Play along, see if 920 00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:11,440 Speaker 1: you can go three. 921 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:15,280 Speaker 5: And oh tough question number one rest of season? 922 00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:19,960 Speaker 1: Will new Chiefs receiver DeAndre Hopkins finished most often in 923 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:23,799 Speaker 1: fantasy scoring? Is a wide receiver, one wide receiver, two 924 00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:28,360 Speaker 1: flex or bench. We begin with Scott Fish. 925 00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:31,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, this this one was a little bit tough 926 00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:33,279 Speaker 3: for me. I could. I don't see it being much 927 00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:36,440 Speaker 3: higher than flex, if at all, it might be bench. 928 00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:40,560 Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with flex, though he'll be flex worthy 929 00:44:40,600 --> 00:44:43,960 Speaker 3: of he'll finish his flexworthy a few times. His hands 930 00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:46,640 Speaker 3: are still there. He has twenty one targets, sixteen of 931 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:49,320 Speaker 3: which were catchable, and he caught fifteen of the sixteen 932 00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:52,160 Speaker 3: catchable balls, so his hands are still there. His yards 933 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:56,640 Speaker 3: per route run still fairly decent, especially given the team. 934 00:44:57,520 --> 00:45:00,160 Speaker 3: I will say worthy is there. They tried the worthy 935 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:02,480 Speaker 3: in the last couple of weeks. Didn't seem to work out. 936 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:05,360 Speaker 3: Juju's coming back. No Gray has stepped up. There's and 937 00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:09,360 Speaker 3: when if we ever truly trusted wide receivers from Kansas City. 938 00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:11,759 Speaker 3: I don't think he's going to enter what Ray Rice 939 00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:14,880 Speaker 3: was doing. But I think he's gonna end multiple weeks 940 00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:16,200 Speaker 3: with some good PPR scores. 941 00:45:16,239 --> 00:45:17,839 Speaker 1: I'm glad I'm not the only one that is called 942 00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:18,879 Speaker 1: Rashid Rice Race. 943 00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:19,120 Speaker 3: Yeah. 944 00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:21,319 Speaker 6: I was gonna say, you don't want to replicate him. 945 00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:26,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I've done it. I know, I don't know why. Uh, Well, 946 00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:27,719 Speaker 1: the last name Rice, I mean there is that. 947 00:45:27,880 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 3: Yeah. 948 00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:29,680 Speaker 1: Rest of season. 949 00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:29,839 Speaker 5: Well. 950 00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:32,680 Speaker 1: New Chiefs wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins most often finished in 951 00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:35,640 Speaker 1: fantasy scoring as a wide receiver one, wide receiver two, 952 00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:37,080 Speaker 1: flex or bench. 953 00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:39,640 Speaker 6: Jerry Rice, by the way, has a great cameo in 954 00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:41,160 Speaker 6: the Uber Eats commercial. 955 00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:42,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it's tremendous. 956 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:45,120 Speaker 6: I just had to say I feel like a SAPP 957 00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:47,920 Speaker 6: for I thought about this question too long, and I'm 958 00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:49,680 Speaker 6: just gonna say in advance, I feel like a sapp 959 00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:50,280 Speaker 6: But I'm. 960 00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:53,440 Speaker 4: Gonna say wide receiver two. Oh okay to say wide receiver. 961 00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:56,879 Speaker 6: Two, and this I might be getting manipulated by Andy Reid, 962 00:45:56,960 --> 00:45:59,440 Speaker 6: so I will also say that as a caveat. But 963 00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:01,719 Speaker 6: Andy Reid did say that Hopkins is going to be 964 00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:05,680 Speaker 6: used in the quasi Rashi Rice role with some added 965 00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:09,040 Speaker 6: looks that MVS used to get downfield. You look at 966 00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:11,360 Speaker 6: what Rice would do in the first three games twenty 967 00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:14,040 Speaker 6: nine targets and those so almost ten per game only 968 00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:17,160 Speaker 6: a five point two a dot mvs. You look at 969 00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:19,319 Speaker 6: his two seasons with Kansas City, he had a dots 970 00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:22,960 Speaker 6: of fifteen, a little over fifteen, and then almost eighteen. 971 00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:23,960 Speaker 4: Yards per target. 972 00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:27,560 Speaker 6: So if Hopkins indeed get some of those balls chucked 973 00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:30,080 Speaker 6: up to him and he I mean, the ball scales 974 00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:33,760 Speaker 6: on Hopkins have always been insane, and they're also manufacturing 975 00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:37,040 Speaker 6: touches for him closer to the line, he might be washed. 976 00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:39,480 Speaker 6: But just from the volume, if Andy Reid is telling 977 00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:41,760 Speaker 6: the truth, I think he's going to be super fantasy 978 00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:42,560 Speaker 6: relevant going forward. 979 00:46:43,640 --> 00:46:45,840 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins, just yes or no for both of you. 980 00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:47,040 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame. 981 00:46:47,719 --> 00:46:51,359 Speaker 3: Yes, wide receivers, so tough for Twell of Fame. I'm 982 00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:55,879 Speaker 3: gonna go not yet, We'll see. It's such a tough 983 00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:59,200 Speaker 3: position to get. He could keep playing, right, it's such 984 00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:00,200 Speaker 3: a tough position. 985 00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:02,560 Speaker 1: Right now where he ranks. There are a couple of 986 00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:04,960 Speaker 1: receivers that have better stats than him that aren't in. 987 00:47:05,320 --> 00:47:08,839 Speaker 1: Irving Fryar shockingly, Henry Ellard not in. 988 00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:10,839 Speaker 3: I mean, just look at how long it took Tim 989 00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:11,520 Speaker 3: Brown to get in. 990 00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:13,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, long time they didn't have to play with will Levis, though, 991 00:47:14,080 --> 00:47:14,359 Speaker 4: to be. 992 00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:15,880 Speaker 1: Fair, I know there is not every year. This is 993 00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:18,680 Speaker 1: what will Levis has done to him. Hopkins averaging two 994 00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:22,440 Speaker 1: catches for twenty eight yards in Tennessee per game. That's it. 995 00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:26,480 Speaker 1: He's wide receiver seventy five. Now we don't know is 996 00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:29,520 Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins cooked or is he just the victim of 997 00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:35,040 Speaker 1: terrible quarterbacking or both. We don't know. That's we'll find 998 00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:38,799 Speaker 1: out now. Right now, it's year twelve. I don't see 999 00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:42,279 Speaker 1: Hopkins turning into a target magnet here. He has not 1000 00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:45,520 Speaker 1: averaged more than four and a half receptions per game 1001 00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:49,600 Speaker 1: in four years, so the volume's probably going to stay 1002 00:47:49,640 --> 00:47:52,200 Speaker 1: pretty low now. He should be able, and Thorn made 1003 00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:54,480 Speaker 1: this point. I totally agree. He's got that big frame. 1004 00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:57,640 Speaker 1: He can box out defenders, he can bring down contested catches, 1005 00:47:57,880 --> 00:48:01,320 Speaker 1: he can. I think he turns into a touchdown dependent 1006 00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:04,560 Speaker 1: wide receiver that you can play in the right matchups 1007 00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:08,280 Speaker 1: as a flex option, but only as a flex option 1008 00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:12,560 Speaker 1: and as a touchdown dependent receiver. Correct answer flex. 1009 00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:14,279 Speaker 5: Tough question number two. 1010 00:48:15,120 --> 00:48:18,719 Speaker 1: Has Russell Wilson unlocked the Steelers offense? 1011 00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:21,080 Speaker 4: Or no? 1012 00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:25,480 Speaker 6: Bring back our King justin Fields, But no, I am 1013 00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:28,200 Speaker 6: going to say no. I obviously appreciate what he did 1014 00:48:28,239 --> 00:48:31,120 Speaker 6: after the slow start against the Jets in that blowout win, 1015 00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:34,520 Speaker 6: but only completed fifty five point two percent of his passes, 1016 00:48:35,239 --> 00:48:37,560 Speaker 6: and there could have been some some advantageous running after 1017 00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:38,359 Speaker 6: the catch there as well. 1018 00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:41,960 Speaker 4: To have the stats, I'm gonna say, no, Okay. 1019 00:48:42,120 --> 00:48:45,840 Speaker 1: Scott is has Russell Wilson. I've lost My question. Is 1020 00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:48,080 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson unlocked the Steelers offense? 1021 00:48:48,160 --> 00:48:50,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, he kind of took some of my points with 1022 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:52,920 Speaker 3: the fifty five percent completion and the yards after the 1023 00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:55,239 Speaker 3: catch I had fifty five. You actually went to the 1024 00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:59,640 Speaker 3: decimal point. You knew it better than I did. Just 1025 00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:02,200 Speaker 3: the week before they beat the Raiders thirty two to thirteen, 1026 00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:05,960 Speaker 3: and this week was thirty seven. Like it's they were 1027 00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:09,719 Speaker 3: very similar. Fields was a top twelve fantasy quarterback three 1028 00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:12,319 Speaker 3: times that I don't think he unlocked it, but in 1029 00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:14,160 Speaker 3: a one game sample size that looked good. And it 1030 00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:17,760 Speaker 3: looks like they finally unlocked George Pickens to a degree. 1031 00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:20,480 Speaker 3: So if that connection can keep going, maybe, but I 1032 00:49:20,480 --> 00:49:23,160 Speaker 3: wouldn't say he's full on unlocked it yet. 1033 00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:27,480 Speaker 1: So I know it's a no. Yes, First, Russell Wilson's 1034 00:49:27,560 --> 00:49:32,200 Speaker 1: arm looks noticeably weaker and slower than the previous versions 1035 00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:34,680 Speaker 1: of that Russell Wilson arm, and I didn't like that. 1036 00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:38,040 Speaker 1: George Pickens had to be a freaking superhero to bring 1037 00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:43,040 Speaker 1: down all those contested catches. But the new the numbers 1038 00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:46,440 Speaker 1: are indisputable. His tight ends combined for eighty seven yards. 1039 00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:52,000 Speaker 1: George Pickens and Van Jefferson posted season best numbers. Man, 1040 00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:54,719 Speaker 1: When you can ring out fantasy points out of Van Jefferson, 1041 00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:57,680 Speaker 1: you're doing something right now. Granted that was against a 1042 00:49:57,760 --> 00:50:01,239 Speaker 1: Jets secondary that was missing four starter, so maybe that 1043 00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:03,720 Speaker 1: was part of it. Now this week he's got the Giants. 1044 00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:07,680 Speaker 1: This is a much better, shockingly better defense pass efense, 1045 00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:11,279 Speaker 1: and they're getting in tons of pressure on opposing quarterbacks. 1046 00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:14,120 Speaker 1: So this is the real test for Russell Wilson. But 1047 00:50:14,200 --> 00:50:16,120 Speaker 1: for the moment, we're gonna say no. 1048 00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:21,359 Speaker 5: Tough question number three, This is a. 1049 00:50:21,360 --> 00:50:22,960 Speaker 3: Question I did not think i'd be asking. 1050 00:50:23,920 --> 00:50:28,600 Speaker 1: Is bow Knicks a top twelve fantasy quarterback for the 1051 00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:30,799 Speaker 1: rest of the season. So basically, I'm saying, is he 1052 00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:33,520 Speaker 1: an every week's starter the rest of the way? Bow Nicks? 1053 00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:34,760 Speaker 1: We begin with Scott fish. 1054 00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:36,759 Speaker 3: Now, can I bring up those two stats that I 1055 00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:41,280 Speaker 3: wanted to cover live? First of all, answer your question 1056 00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:43,920 Speaker 3: with a probably not unless you're going to depend a 1057 00:50:43,920 --> 00:50:46,200 Speaker 3: ton on his running. He averages one hundred and seventy 1058 00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:49,040 Speaker 3: eight passing yards a game. His rushing has kind of 1059 00:50:49,080 --> 00:50:51,040 Speaker 3: been all over the map to He's got a bunch 1060 00:50:51,040 --> 00:50:54,359 Speaker 3: of low rushing yard edge days that were saved by 1061 00:50:54,440 --> 00:50:58,759 Speaker 3: touchdowns supplemented with a score he is. Here comes the 1062 00:50:58,760 --> 00:51:01,640 Speaker 3: two stats. He is second in the league and designed runs, 1063 00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:05,120 Speaker 3: behind only Jaydon Daniels, and he is second all time 1064 00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:07,920 Speaker 3: in rushing yards in his first seven games for a quarterback, 1065 00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:14,200 Speaker 3: behind only Cam Newton. Newton, however, top forty five yards 1066 00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:17,600 Speaker 3: rushing nine times in his rookie season and was quite 1067 00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:21,360 Speaker 3: consistently rushing for decent amounts. This seems all over the 1068 00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:23,319 Speaker 3: map so far this year. We'll see if this trend 1069 00:51:23,360 --> 00:51:25,960 Speaker 3: continues and he you know, keeps rushing more and more 1070 00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:28,600 Speaker 3: and keeps scoring. But I'm gonna go with no. Top 1071 00:51:28,640 --> 00:51:30,040 Speaker 3: twelve is a really high benchmark. 1072 00:51:30,120 --> 00:51:32,239 Speaker 1: That is a high benchmark. But he's that's about worry. 1073 00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:35,440 Speaker 1: I know your love of bo Dicks, Well, just well, 1074 00:51:35,480 --> 00:51:36,960 Speaker 1: now we fight. 1075 00:51:36,239 --> 00:51:36,399 Speaker 2: Now. 1076 00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:42,880 Speaker 1: Four is bow knicks a top twelve fantasy quarterback for 1077 00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:44,560 Speaker 1: the rest of the year. We know you like him 1078 00:51:44,600 --> 00:51:46,480 Speaker 1: this week against the Panthers. I don't care about that 1079 00:51:46,600 --> 00:51:47,200 Speaker 1: rest of the year. 1080 00:51:47,760 --> 00:51:49,520 Speaker 6: I don't want to live in a world where Boneck 1081 00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:51,560 Speaker 6: is a top to fantasy quarterback. 1082 00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:53,440 Speaker 4: I'm gonna say no. 1083 00:51:54,040 --> 00:51:55,839 Speaker 6: You know you think of like a standard league, would 1084 00:51:56,080 --> 00:51:59,719 Speaker 6: he be startable every week? I do think he's an 1085 00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:03,720 Speaker 6: I forgot I'd say this streamable based on Advantage's matchups. 1086 00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:05,520 Speaker 6: But no, not not top twelve rest of the season. 1087 00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:08,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, quarterback thirteen right now. Despite averaging less than one 1088 00:52:08,560 --> 00:52:12,200 Speaker 1: touchdown pass per game, fourth and rushing yards Scott mentioned 1089 00:52:12,239 --> 00:52:15,800 Speaker 1: second in designed runs, passing is getting better and here's why. 1090 00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:19,600 Speaker 1: In the first month of games, Bonis average was averaging 1091 00:52:20,080 --> 00:52:23,520 Speaker 1: four and a half yards per pass. That's it couldn't 1092 00:52:23,520 --> 00:52:26,080 Speaker 1: get anything done on that. But over the past three 1093 00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:28,319 Speaker 1: weeks that he's improved it by fifty percent. He's up 1094 00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:30,719 Speaker 1: to six point eight yards. That puts him into like 1095 00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:34,960 Speaker 1: legitimate NFL passing territory when you're about seven yards per pass, 1096 00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:37,400 Speaker 1: So you know he's up there with Kyler Murray and 1097 00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:41,360 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert. So there's glimmers of hope emerging with Troy 1098 00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:46,839 Speaker 1: Franklin Devon Vley. But the reality is rushing quarterbacks get 1099 00:52:46,840 --> 00:52:49,440 Speaker 1: it done in fantasy football. Lonix is going to be 1100 00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:51,040 Speaker 1: a top twelve quarterback the rest of the work. 1101 00:52:51,280 --> 00:52:54,080 Speaker 3: We've talked. We've talked about this before in preseason about 1102 00:52:54,120 --> 00:52:56,560 Speaker 3: how the rushing you hit a certain benchmark and you're 1103 00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:58,000 Speaker 3: basically locked for top twelve. 1104 00:52:58,040 --> 00:52:58,719 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1105 00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:03,040 Speaker 3: By the way, can I mention the Derrick Henry yards 1106 00:53:03,560 --> 00:53:07,839 Speaker 3: yards after contact stat from last segment and the bone No, 1107 00:53:08,239 --> 00:53:10,560 Speaker 3: I mean, I mean I can, But the bon Knicks 1108 00:53:11,120 --> 00:53:13,600 Speaker 3: Cam Newton stat on this segment. Those both came from 1109 00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:16,240 Speaker 3: the f F newsletter. I just wanted to give credit 1110 00:53:16,239 --> 00:53:18,040 Speaker 3: where credit is due. I hate when people don't. 1111 00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:20,720 Speaker 1: I don't know what that is. Oh yeahs f F newsletter. 1112 00:53:20,880 --> 00:53:23,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a newsletter. But I can, I can clarify 1113 00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:28,560 Speaker 3: that it was actually Derrick Henry and eighty five yards 1114 00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:31,680 Speaker 3: most rushing yards since twenty eighteen Henry after contact with 1115 00:53:31,719 --> 00:53:34,200 Speaker 3: over seven thousand at number two, and Nick Chubb at 1116 00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:37,120 Speaker 3: number three with about sixty five hundred. It's insane, But yeah, 1117 00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:38,600 Speaker 3: those came from the f F newsletters. 1118 00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:40,319 Speaker 1: It should be in the Hall of Fame. Saints take 1119 00:53:40,360 --> 00:53:43,399 Speaker 1: on the Chargers. Now this broadly about the Saints. Five 1120 00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:46,120 Speaker 1: offensive linemen are on IR and both guards are currently 1121 00:53:46,120 --> 00:53:49,480 Speaker 1: listed as questionable. So you know the Broncos last weekend 1122 00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:52,560 Speaker 1: Spencer Rattler running for his life on every snap, and 1123 00:53:52,600 --> 00:53:55,160 Speaker 1: I'm afraid that's exactly what's going to happen here. Derek 1124 00:53:55,200 --> 00:53:58,319 Speaker 1: Carr not expected to play. The only letter grade I've 1125 00:53:58,320 --> 00:54:00,600 Speaker 1: got for you is Alvin Kamara, and just to see, 1126 00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:04,239 Speaker 1: in the first month of the season, Kamara's average finish 1127 00:54:04,320 --> 00:54:07,600 Speaker 1: was running back six. Since then running back twenty one. 1128 00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:11,880 Speaker 1: His rushing yards over the last three games twenty six, 1129 00:54:12,719 --> 00:54:14,279 Speaker 1: forty and ten. 1130 00:54:14,600 --> 00:54:15,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's bad. 1131 00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:19,000 Speaker 1: We've learned that Khmara's got a broken hand, which, weirdly, 1132 00:54:19,000 --> 00:54:20,759 Speaker 1: they're still throwing to him and he can catch. How 1133 00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:22,000 Speaker 1: do you catch on a broken hand? 1134 00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:25,480 Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know a professional athlete. 1135 00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:27,839 Speaker 1: I guess, and maybe a lot of painkillers. He's caught 1136 00:54:27,840 --> 00:54:30,399 Speaker 1: at least five passes in four straight games. And that's 1137 00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:32,560 Speaker 1: the only reason you can flex Kamara here at all 1138 00:54:32,680 --> 00:54:36,280 Speaker 1: is the presumption of about eight PPR points and up hopefully, 1139 00:54:36,400 --> 00:54:39,520 Speaker 1: like I don't know, forty rushing yards maybe, but that's 1140 00:54:39,560 --> 00:54:42,839 Speaker 1: it the rush. The Chargers run defense has been very good. 1141 00:54:43,080 --> 00:54:43,320 Speaker 5: Chris A. 1142 00:54:43,400 --> 00:54:45,880 Speaker 1: Lobby is going to return here, but I hesitate to 1143 00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:48,200 Speaker 1: start him with Spencer Rattler at the helm behind a 1144 00:54:48,239 --> 00:54:50,880 Speaker 1: makeshift offensive line, And even if A Lobby gets a 1145 00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:53,880 Speaker 1: lot of looks, I worry about an inefficient date. Marshall 1146 00:54:53,960 --> 00:54:56,080 Speaker 1: Lattimore is expected to play in this game, and he'll 1147 00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:59,920 Speaker 1: almost certainly shadow a Labbe. Last week against the Chargers, 1148 00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:04,799 Speaker 1: no receiver topped twenty one yards. Chris A. Lobby's on 1149 00:55:04,840 --> 00:55:06,839 Speaker 1: the bench. Let's go to the LA side. I've got 1150 00:55:06,880 --> 00:55:09,880 Speaker 1: a couple of starters for you. JK. Dobbins a grade. 1151 00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:12,279 Speaker 1: Over the past five weeks, the Saints are allowing the 1152 00:55:12,360 --> 00:55:16,600 Speaker 1: second most rushing yards one hundred and forty three per game. 1153 00:55:17,160 --> 00:55:19,640 Speaker 1: Dobbins should get most of the one hundred and forty 1154 00:55:19,680 --> 00:55:22,600 Speaker 1: three yards, and they're giving up a whopping six yards 1155 00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:25,680 Speaker 1: per carry. The Saints run defense is totally up. Yeah, 1156 00:55:26,320 --> 00:55:28,360 Speaker 1: Justin Herbert was might take a chance on me. Quarterback 1157 00:55:28,760 --> 00:55:31,640 Speaker 1: Lad mcconkee coming in with a C grade. He does 1158 00:55:31,680 --> 00:55:34,040 Speaker 1: have hip injury, but expected to play. He's been the 1159 00:55:34,080 --> 00:55:37,480 Speaker 1: only quasi reliable Charger receiver. He runs primarily from the 1160 00:55:37,520 --> 00:55:41,560 Speaker 1: slot where he'll have a positive matchup against cornerback alanse 1161 00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:44,879 Speaker 1: Alante Taylor, who gives up an eighty one percent catch 1162 00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:47,680 Speaker 1: rate and gave him a touchdown in his coverage last 1163 00:55:47,680 --> 00:55:50,560 Speaker 1: week to Chris Godwin. That was just two weeks ago. 1164 00:55:50,680 --> 00:55:54,120 Speaker 1: Chris Godwin C grade on Ladd McConkie scout. 1165 00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:55,280 Speaker 3: Let's work in one more matchup. 1166 00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:57,000 Speaker 1: I think we have time buffalo bills taking out of 1167 00:55:57,040 --> 00:56:01,680 Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks. You already told you like Ray Davis. Yeah, 1168 00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:04,040 Speaker 1: obviously that tells me you like James Cook. 1169 00:56:04,120 --> 00:56:07,479 Speaker 3: I yeah, the same stuff. Five point two yards per Carrie, 1170 00:56:07,600 --> 00:56:11,080 Speaker 3: second most rushing yards, first most combo yards. Just a 1171 00:56:11,120 --> 00:56:13,040 Speaker 3: lot of touches to be had, and James Cook is 1172 00:56:13,040 --> 00:56:17,439 Speaker 3: getting fifteen plus touches for seventy five plus yards per game, 1173 00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:19,640 Speaker 3: scored in four of his last five. Yeah, he got 1174 00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:23,080 Speaker 3: an A grade on James Cook over to the passing game. 1175 00:56:23,200 --> 00:56:26,280 Speaker 3: Josh Allen, I'm giving a B grade to Seahawks. Pressure 1176 00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:28,520 Speaker 3: a lot their top three and knockdowns, hurries and pressures. 1177 00:56:28,560 --> 00:56:30,399 Speaker 3: So that might lead to Alan to scramble a few 1178 00:56:30,440 --> 00:56:33,400 Speaker 3: times and get you some get you a few rushing yards, 1179 00:56:33,400 --> 00:56:36,440 Speaker 3: which is good. Goff Jones Perty and cousin spent the 1180 00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:39,160 Speaker 3: last month averaging two hundred and fifty nine yards and 1181 00:56:39,160 --> 00:56:41,680 Speaker 3: two scores on the Seahawks, so he should get some 1182 00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:43,680 Speaker 3: in the air too. So I got a B grade there. 1183 00:56:43,719 --> 00:56:45,600 Speaker 3: You could probably talk me into an A grade, but 1184 00:56:45,680 --> 00:56:47,160 Speaker 3: I'm going to go with a B grade for now. 1185 00:56:48,480 --> 00:56:51,040 Speaker 3: In the passing game as well, Amari Cooper, I have 1186 00:56:51,080 --> 00:56:54,759 Speaker 3: a B grade on in just nineteen snaps thirteen dropbacks, 1187 00:56:54,760 --> 00:56:57,680 Speaker 3: he saw five targets a thirty eight percent target chair 1188 00:56:58,080 --> 00:57:02,080 Speaker 3: on that very limited work week. But that four for 1189 00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:06,400 Speaker 3: sixty six is likely to increase this week. Six different 1190 00:57:06,400 --> 00:57:09,800 Speaker 3: wide receivers have scored on Seattle in the last four games, 1191 00:57:09,960 --> 00:57:13,080 Speaker 3: and Reek Wooland but was it, Tarik, Like did that 1192 00:57:13,160 --> 00:57:15,480 Speaker 3: switch it? I just said, okay, okay. 1193 00:57:15,640 --> 00:57:16,720 Speaker 1: So now he's reaked. 1194 00:57:16,760 --> 00:57:19,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's been Reek all season. And I was like, see, 1195 00:57:19,920 --> 00:57:22,120 Speaker 3: I didn't notice fisher is all season. In Week three, 1196 00:57:22,240 --> 00:57:24,720 Speaker 3: Dalton kincaid, I got a B grade on Seahawks allow 1197 00:57:24,800 --> 00:57:28,400 Speaker 3: the sixth most receptions and fourth most yards two tight ends. 1198 00:57:28,760 --> 00:57:31,360 Speaker 3: Henry just went and Henry went eight for one oh 1199 00:57:31,440 --> 00:57:34,280 Speaker 3: nine against them, and over the last month, Laporta four 1200 00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:36,920 Speaker 3: for fifty three. Theo Johnson five for forty eight, Kittle 1201 00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:39,680 Speaker 3: five for fifty eight, Pitch seven for sixty five. Basically, 1202 00:57:39,880 --> 00:57:42,120 Speaker 3: everybody's post everybody's posting. Good game. 1203 00:57:42,200 --> 00:57:44,880 Speaker 1: God, do we need a big Dalton Kincaid game? Please? 1204 00:57:45,080 --> 00:57:48,080 Speaker 3: Yes, Yes. Over on the Seattle side, Gino Smith gets 1205 00:57:48,080 --> 00:57:50,440 Speaker 3: a C grade. He's second in the league in air yards, 1206 00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:52,560 Speaker 3: first in the league in passing yards two hundred and 1207 00:57:52,560 --> 00:57:56,080 Speaker 3: eighty three per game. Three of the Bill's four worst 1208 00:57:56,120 --> 00:57:58,680 Speaker 3: passing days came in the last three week three weeks 1209 00:57:58,720 --> 00:58:01,320 Speaker 3: to Stroud, Rogers and Root, so they're trending down and 1210 00:58:01,360 --> 00:58:04,360 Speaker 3: allowing a lot of passing yards. So C grade there 1211 00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:07,440 Speaker 3: on Gino Smith. Not a lot of touchdowns though, so 1212 00:58:07,520 --> 00:58:10,440 Speaker 3: that's that's why the C grade in the passing game 1213 00:58:10,480 --> 00:58:13,200 Speaker 3: as well. Tyler Lockett, it sounds like DK Metcalf is 1214 00:58:13,240 --> 00:58:16,680 Speaker 3: not gonna go. He does sometimes play hurt mcl sprang, 1215 00:58:16,760 --> 00:58:19,680 Speaker 3: but he went down to doubtful on Friday, so I 1216 00:58:19,680 --> 00:58:22,000 Speaker 3: think he'll be out. So over to Tyler Lockett, who 1217 00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:24,400 Speaker 3: I'm given the B grade to four plus catches forty 1218 00:58:24,400 --> 00:58:26,960 Speaker 3: five plus yards in all but one game. He's the 1219 00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:31,240 Speaker 3: consistently safe one. Last three games, wide receivers have five 1220 00:58:31,280 --> 00:58:34,000 Speaker 3: wide receivers have seventy five plus yards or a score 1221 00:58:34,120 --> 00:58:36,760 Speaker 3: against the Bills, So I'm giving a C grade as 1222 00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:40,080 Speaker 3: well to Jackson Smith in JIGBA, A few slot guys 1223 00:58:40,080 --> 00:58:43,160 Speaker 3: like Greg Dorsch, Christian Kirk, and Stefan Diggs all had 1224 00:58:43,240 --> 00:58:46,160 Speaker 3: pretty decent days against them. They're one of the league's 1225 00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:50,080 Speaker 3: worst in yards per route run. He'll get Tarren Johnson, who's, 1226 00:58:50,280 --> 00:58:52,280 Speaker 3: you know, one of the tougher spots, a twenty nine 1227 00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:55,840 Speaker 3: QB rating against but just a fifty percent completion rate. 1228 00:58:55,920 --> 00:58:59,560 Speaker 3: So C grade is maybe he's forced to move around 1229 00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:01,800 Speaker 3: in a void, him and his seven D eight targets 1230 00:59:01,880 --> 00:59:05,560 Speaker 3: might bump up to double digits over in the run game. 1231 00:59:05,840 --> 00:59:08,800 Speaker 3: Kenneth Walker averaging eighteen touches with nearly five of them 1232 00:59:08,840 --> 00:59:10,440 Speaker 3: being Walker receptions. 1233 00:59:10,600 --> 00:59:12,920 Speaker 1: He's so good and if they're using him now in 1234 00:59:12,960 --> 00:59:16,120 Speaker 1: the passing game, as you're just mentioning, yeah, Kenneth Walker is. 1235 00:59:16,320 --> 00:59:19,360 Speaker 3: The nearly five receptions a game on average, He's. 1236 00:59:19,240 --> 00:59:21,439 Speaker 1: The best league running back nobody talks about. 1237 00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:24,080 Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, And the Bills allow the second most receptions 1238 00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:26,880 Speaker 3: and yards through the air to back's fourth most combo yards, 1239 00:59:26,960 --> 00:59:28,080 Speaker 3: So I have an A grade on him. 1240 00:59:28,120 --> 00:59:31,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, As well, you should nothing at Jake Bobo and 1241 00:59:31,600 --> 00:59:32,360 Speaker 1: I guess I don't play. 1242 00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:35,840 Speaker 3: I didn't. I wrote it down that if you wanted 1243 00:59:35,880 --> 00:59:38,560 Speaker 3: a dart throw it could be Jake Bobo on the outside. 1244 00:59:38,600 --> 00:59:41,240 Speaker 3: But I feel it's, you know, no buys this week, 1245 00:59:41,360 --> 00:59:43,200 Speaker 3: so not you got options? 1246 00:59:43,240 --> 00:59:47,240 Speaker 1: Probably am I wrong to want Jake Bobo to be 1247 00:59:47,320 --> 00:59:49,680 Speaker 1: traded to the Broncos so I could have a touchdown 1248 00:59:49,720 --> 00:59:53,000 Speaker 1: pass that is Jake bo Bo Bo Nicks. Oh nice, 1249 00:59:53,040 --> 00:59:54,280 Speaker 1: I like that? 1250 00:59:54,440 --> 00:59:57,960 Speaker 3: Ask you also in that Seattle offense, no fans who's 1251 00:59:58,160 --> 00:59:59,720 Speaker 3: had two great games in a row could be at 1252 00:59:59,760 --> 01:00:03,920 Speaker 3: Darth with gk Metcalf out. Yeah, I don't know. 1253 01:00:04,320 --> 01:00:07,440 Speaker 1: When we come back, Atlanta takes on Tampa Bay. This 1254 01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:09,840 Speaker 1: is a very important game for both of these teams. 1255 01:00:09,920 --> 01:00:12,520 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins has played well the majority of the season, 1256 01:00:12,760 --> 01:00:15,960 Speaker 1: and the Bucks secondary has been pretty shaky. We'll find 1257 01:00:15,960 --> 01:00:18,640 Speaker 1: out where Kirk Cousins ranks when we come back to 1258 01:00:18,720 --> 01:00:43,720 Speaker 1: Fantasy Football Beat. Welcome back Fantasy's Football Weekly. Another block 1259 01:00:43,720 --> 01:00:47,560 Speaker 1: of matchups for you in this Week eight with no buys, weird, 1260 01:00:47,560 --> 01:00:49,440 Speaker 1: We're gonna be dealing with buyes at Week fourteen. But 1261 01:00:49,480 --> 01:00:53,600 Speaker 1: ow we gate thor Atlanta takes on Tampa Bay. Very 1262 01:00:53,640 --> 01:00:58,720 Speaker 1: important game for playoff positioning between these teams. Basically since one, 1263 01:00:58,800 --> 01:01:01,880 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins looked pretty darn good. This passing offense has 1264 01:01:01,880 --> 01:01:04,040 Speaker 1: been good. Bucks pass defense. 1265 01:01:04,800 --> 01:01:07,440 Speaker 6: Yeah, you said it. Kirk Couzins will lead him off 1266 01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:09,160 Speaker 6: with an a here. He did have the off day 1267 01:01:09,200 --> 01:01:11,560 Speaker 6: against Seattle with with nine fantasy points, but this is 1268 01:01:11,560 --> 01:01:14,760 Speaker 6: the perfect get right game week five against these same Bucks. 1269 01:01:14,840 --> 01:01:18,040 Speaker 6: You guys will recall forty two point four fantasy points 1270 01:01:18,040 --> 01:01:20,440 Speaker 6: for Kirk Cousins. That was the five hundred nine passing 1271 01:01:20,480 --> 01:01:21,840 Speaker 6: yards in four touchdown games. 1272 01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:22,920 Speaker 4: Bijon. 1273 01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:25,440 Speaker 6: Of course, he's gonna be obvious start and an a 1274 01:01:25,760 --> 01:01:27,720 Speaker 6: two hundred and forty eight yards from scrimmage over the 1275 01:01:27,800 --> 01:01:29,840 Speaker 6: last two weeks for him starting to cook a little bit. 1276 01:01:30,200 --> 01:01:31,880 Speaker 4: Tyler Ljier. I gave him a CE. 1277 01:01:32,280 --> 01:01:34,520 Speaker 6: He only played on twenty three percent of the snaps 1278 01:01:34,600 --> 01:01:37,600 Speaker 6: last week, but that's gonna spike against the injury decimated 1279 01:01:37,640 --> 01:01:41,200 Speaker 6: Bucks here and could be a sneaky flex start in 1280 01:01:41,600 --> 01:01:45,040 Speaker 6: standard leagues. Great eljierfaces the Bucks defense. It's giving up 1281 01:01:45,040 --> 01:01:48,040 Speaker 6: more than five yards per carry, so yeah, they get 1282 01:01:48,040 --> 01:01:49,520 Speaker 6: that lead in the second half and he could he 1283 01:01:49,520 --> 01:01:50,520 Speaker 6: could churn out numbers. 1284 01:01:50,720 --> 01:01:54,160 Speaker 4: Drake London obvious a must start. Same for Kyle Pitts. 1285 01:01:54,160 --> 01:01:56,040 Speaker 6: I can't believe I'm saying that Kyle Pitts has eight 1286 01:01:56,040 --> 01:01:58,400 Speaker 6: plus PPR points in five to seven games this year 1287 01:01:58,600 --> 01:02:01,880 Speaker 6: and ten plus in four of seven, and then Darnell 1288 01:02:01,920 --> 01:02:05,080 Speaker 6: Mooney giving him a bee. The last six weeks, Mooney's 1289 01:02:05,120 --> 01:02:09,240 Speaker 6: fourteen point eight PPR average ranks in the top sixteen 1290 01:02:09,320 --> 01:02:12,280 Speaker 6: of NFL receivers. Tampa has allowed the fifth most Fantasy 1291 01:02:12,280 --> 01:02:15,120 Speaker 6: points to wide receivers. And last time Mooney played the 1292 01:02:15,160 --> 01:02:18,040 Speaker 6: Bucks in that game where everybody went ballistic, nine catches, 1293 01:02:18,080 --> 01:02:20,360 Speaker 6: one hundred five yards and two touchup. But I couldn't 1294 01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:22,360 Speaker 6: give everybody an A, so he's got. 1295 01:02:22,200 --> 01:02:24,920 Speaker 4: To be a bee. Moving over to the Bucks, Baker Mayfield, 1296 01:02:24,920 --> 01:02:25,680 Speaker 4: I give him a C. 1297 01:02:26,320 --> 01:02:29,480 Speaker 6: Leeds NFL the NFL with eighteen passing touchdowns and its 1298 01:02:29,640 --> 01:02:33,840 Speaker 6: top six impasser rating en yards per attempt. The issue, 1299 01:02:33,840 --> 01:02:36,840 Speaker 6: of course, is the injuries to Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. 1300 01:02:37,000 --> 01:02:40,600 Speaker 6: That's really gonna hurt, so I had to downgrade him 1301 01:02:40,600 --> 01:02:43,160 Speaker 6: to a C in this matchup because of that. Rashad White, 1302 01:02:43,200 --> 01:02:46,240 Speaker 6: I give him a C. Bucky Irving is questionable didn't 1303 01:02:46,240 --> 01:02:47,360 Speaker 6: practice on Thursday. 1304 01:02:47,400 --> 01:02:48,600 Speaker 4: Well we'll end up seeing on that. 1305 01:02:48,760 --> 01:02:51,400 Speaker 6: If Irving is out, this committee gets cut to White 1306 01:02:51,400 --> 01:02:52,120 Speaker 6: and Sean. 1307 01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:55,400 Speaker 3: Tucker's But yeah, yeah, yeah. 1308 01:02:54,840 --> 01:02:57,520 Speaker 6: But you know I either way, White is the receiving 1309 01:02:57,560 --> 01:03:00,520 Speaker 6: guy there, and with Evans and Godwin both out, there 1310 01:03:00,560 --> 01:03:03,080 Speaker 6: is going to be increased targets the two games. 1311 01:03:03,160 --> 01:03:04,320 Speaker 4: So there's only been two games so. 1312 01:03:04,280 --> 01:03:06,640 Speaker 6: Far this season where a shot White finishes a top 1313 01:03:06,680 --> 01:03:10,760 Speaker 6: twenty eight Fantasy wide receiver. He had six catches for 1314 01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:14,000 Speaker 6: seventy plus yards in both of those, so the targets 1315 01:03:14,200 --> 01:03:15,520 Speaker 6: are going to be coming here. 1316 01:03:15,840 --> 01:03:17,440 Speaker 4: But it's a tough matchup. 1317 01:03:17,480 --> 01:03:19,439 Speaker 6: I will say the Falcons have been the best team 1318 01:03:19,440 --> 01:03:23,560 Speaker 6: in the NFL against receiving running backs, so a PPR 1319 01:03:23,680 --> 01:03:26,880 Speaker 6: he's a for sure mustart White because of that. But yeah, 1320 01:03:26,920 --> 01:03:29,760 Speaker 6: standard league, standard scoring. I give him a sea. Jalen 1321 01:03:29,840 --> 01:03:32,760 Speaker 6: McMillan was might take a chance on me. Receiver Trey Palmer, 1322 01:03:32,840 --> 01:03:36,240 Speaker 6: I'm giving him a See he's never been targeted heavily, 1323 01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:39,760 Speaker 6: but he does give you that home run utility. He 1324 01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:42,920 Speaker 6: could hit a dinger at any time, and they obviously 1325 01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:44,840 Speaker 6: need to generate offense, so he's probably gonna get a 1326 01:03:44,840 --> 01:03:47,800 Speaker 6: couple looks there. Atlanta has allowed the second highest PPR 1327 01:03:47,880 --> 01:03:52,400 Speaker 6: points per target to perimeter wide receivers and nineteenth in 1328 01:03:52,480 --> 01:03:55,120 Speaker 6: receiving yards per game allowed for the Falcons, so at 1329 01:03:55,200 --> 01:03:57,680 Speaker 6: least it's an advantageous matchup Sterling Shepard. 1330 01:03:57,720 --> 01:03:58,640 Speaker 4: I'm keeping him on the bench. 1331 01:03:58,840 --> 01:04:00,840 Speaker 6: I know there's some optimism for him out there in 1332 01:04:00,880 --> 01:04:03,240 Speaker 6: terms of being Baker Mayfield's college teammate and all the 1333 01:04:03,240 --> 01:04:06,240 Speaker 6: injuries he could get on the field. I think Jalen McMillan, though, 1334 01:04:06,280 --> 01:04:08,720 Speaker 6: is going to the slot, and if I'm right about that, 1335 01:04:09,520 --> 01:04:11,400 Speaker 6: where do you play Sterling Shepherd. That's where it gets 1336 01:04:11,440 --> 01:04:14,120 Speaker 6: really hairy for him. I just wouldn't mess with it. 1337 01:04:14,840 --> 01:04:17,720 Speaker 6: And then Kate Atton giving him a B in this matchup. 1338 01:04:17,760 --> 01:04:20,439 Speaker 6: Top five Fantasy tight end the past five weeks, had 1339 01:04:20,680 --> 01:04:23,520 Speaker 6: twenty six catches and is averaging eleven Fantasy points per 1340 01:04:23,560 --> 01:04:26,080 Speaker 6: game during that span, more targets, of course coming with 1341 01:04:26,120 --> 01:04:27,200 Speaker 6: Evans and God went out. 1342 01:04:28,480 --> 01:04:29,600 Speaker 4: It's also a good matchup. 1343 01:04:29,640 --> 01:04:32,720 Speaker 6: Aten has been targeted four times more versus zone than 1344 01:04:32,760 --> 01:04:36,240 Speaker 6: man coverage, four times more versus zone coverage then man coverage. 1345 01:04:36,320 --> 01:04:38,160 Speaker 6: The Falcons run zone at the third highest rate in 1346 01:04:38,200 --> 01:04:40,120 Speaker 6: the NFL this season. I don't know why I put 1347 01:04:40,120 --> 01:04:41,520 Speaker 6: a B. I'm upgrading him to an A. 1348 01:04:41,640 --> 01:04:44,200 Speaker 1: Kad talk to yourself right in. I did, Yeah, nicely done. 1349 01:04:44,360 --> 01:04:48,160 Speaker 1: Kate on surging lately. A couple of Tyler L. Geerstats 1350 01:04:48,160 --> 01:04:51,200 Speaker 1: for you. Yeah, please among players with his runners. With 1351 01:04:51,240 --> 01:04:55,600 Speaker 1: his fifty six carries, Tyler L. Geer ranks third and 1352 01:04:55,680 --> 01:04:59,640 Speaker 1: missed tackle rate and fifth in yards per carry. Dude, 1353 01:04:59,640 --> 01:05:00,200 Speaker 1: it's just good. 1354 01:05:00,240 --> 01:05:00,600 Speaker 3: He's good. 1355 01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:03,880 Speaker 1: He's just good. And everybody's like, well, if like, if 1356 01:05:03,840 --> 01:05:05,920 Speaker 1: you said anything good about Tyler lg Or, people think 1357 01:05:05,920 --> 01:05:07,960 Speaker 1: you're saying something bad about Jon Robinson. 1358 01:05:08,360 --> 01:05:08,640 Speaker 5: I'm not. 1359 01:05:08,800 --> 01:05:11,800 Speaker 1: They're both really good players and they're both being productive. 1360 01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:14,080 Speaker 4: Played with Pook and the cool in college too, always 1361 01:05:14,120 --> 01:05:14,360 Speaker 4: U time. 1362 01:05:14,480 --> 01:05:16,919 Speaker 3: Yeah, I played in Fantasy league with me, Yeah, played 1363 01:05:17,600 --> 01:05:19,440 Speaker 3: with you, yeah. 1364 01:05:18,800 --> 01:05:21,479 Speaker 1: And then left one experience of being in a league 1365 01:05:21,480 --> 01:05:22,080 Speaker 1: with you, and he's out. 1366 01:05:22,240 --> 01:05:23,160 Speaker 3: We both left. 1367 01:05:24,560 --> 01:05:27,880 Speaker 1: Let's go to the Chicago Bears taking on Washington Commanders. 1368 01:05:27,920 --> 01:05:30,280 Speaker 1: That is my game. We begin on the Chicago side 1369 01:05:30,280 --> 01:05:32,600 Speaker 1: with DeAndre Swift getting an A grade in this one. 1370 01:05:32,680 --> 01:05:35,040 Speaker 1: Chicago's run blocking so much better and this is a 1371 01:05:35,160 --> 01:05:39,400 Speaker 1: very positive matchup. Washington ranks twenty seventh in yards per carry, 1372 01:05:40,000 --> 01:05:42,640 Speaker 1: they ranked twenty seventh and run defense success rate, and 1373 01:05:42,680 --> 01:05:45,280 Speaker 1: they ranked twenty eighth in yards after contact. The way 1374 01:05:45,320 --> 01:05:48,640 Speaker 1: you beat Washington unlike per previous years, it's on the ground. 1375 01:05:48,720 --> 01:05:51,080 Speaker 1: You just go run at him. DeAndre Swift, great play 1376 01:05:51,080 --> 01:05:54,160 Speaker 1: this week A grade. Let's go to the receivers, Beginning 1377 01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:56,680 Speaker 1: with dj Moop. He continues to dominate the wide receiver 1378 01:05:56,760 --> 01:05:59,800 Speaker 1: looks for Chicago, averaging eight targets per game. He's the 1379 01:05:59,840 --> 01:06:02,640 Speaker 1: only Bears receiver who's reliably finished as a wide receiver 1380 01:06:02,720 --> 01:06:05,360 Speaker 1: two or flex level player pretty much every week. He 1381 01:06:05,440 --> 01:06:07,360 Speaker 1: runs the majority of his play from the left side 1382 01:06:07,400 --> 01:06:09,360 Speaker 1: of the field. That puts him up against cornerback Ben 1383 01:06:09,400 --> 01:06:12,720 Speaker 1: Saint Juic, who has allowed three scores already along with 1384 01:06:12,760 --> 01:06:16,160 Speaker 1: the fourth most receiving yards of any player in the NFL. 1385 01:06:16,520 --> 01:06:19,920 Speaker 1: So DJ Moore B grade. I've got a C grade 1386 01:06:19,920 --> 01:06:22,560 Speaker 1: on Keenan Allen. Now, last time we saw Alan before 1387 01:06:22,600 --> 01:06:25,640 Speaker 1: Chicago was by He had his first big game for Chicago. 1388 01:06:25,680 --> 01:06:29,720 Speaker 1: He scored twice, but his volume is just okay, five 1389 01:06:29,760 --> 01:06:32,560 Speaker 1: targets per game. It gets enough to keep him startable 1390 01:06:32,600 --> 01:06:36,560 Speaker 1: in a positive matchup. Washington slot corner is rookie cornerback 1391 01:06:36,920 --> 01:06:40,760 Speaker 1: Mike Sandris. Still, he's allowed three scores, a seventy nine 1392 01:06:40,800 --> 01:06:43,480 Speaker 1: percent completion rate, and an opposed passer rating of one 1393 01:06:43,560 --> 01:06:46,600 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty two. So Keenan Allen comes into the 1394 01:06:46,640 --> 01:06:49,320 Speaker 1: C grade. I've got a bench grade in roll of Dunsa, 1395 01:06:49,400 --> 01:06:51,080 Speaker 1: even though I think long term he's gonna be just fine. 1396 01:06:51,120 --> 01:06:54,120 Speaker 1: But low volume a real problem here, averaging just three 1397 01:06:54,240 --> 01:06:57,920 Speaker 1: catchuple targets per game. It's an okay matchup facing off 1398 01:06:57,960 --> 01:07:03,160 Speaker 1: against Washington cornerback Noah iigbin Oghnay. I think I got 1399 01:07:03,160 --> 01:07:07,160 Speaker 1: that right. He's Pro Football focuses cornerback eighty four. But 1400 01:07:07,640 --> 01:07:11,640 Speaker 1: igbinoga Away is much better this year, allowing per game 1401 01:07:11,680 --> 01:07:14,240 Speaker 1: averages of three catches for just twenty two yards in 1402 01:07:14,280 --> 01:07:17,840 Speaker 1: his coverage. I'm going with it. Hopefully his parents did too. 1403 01:07:18,440 --> 01:07:20,480 Speaker 1: Cole Comet comes out of the Sea grade. Usage is 1404 01:07:20,520 --> 01:07:23,400 Speaker 1: pretty low and he's a touchdown dependent player, but he's 1405 01:07:23,400 --> 01:07:26,240 Speaker 1: on the field enough to keep him relevant. Fortunately, the 1406 01:07:26,280 --> 01:07:29,360 Speaker 1: Commanders have given up three straight good not great games 1407 01:07:29,360 --> 01:07:31,680 Speaker 1: to tight ends, including touchdowns in two of the past three. 1408 01:07:31,760 --> 01:07:34,440 Speaker 1: So we'll keep a C grade on cole Comet. And 1409 01:07:34,480 --> 01:07:37,320 Speaker 1: then where does that leave us with Caleb Williams He's 1410 01:07:37,360 --> 01:07:41,160 Speaker 1: made incremental improvements in just about every game this year, 1411 01:07:41,320 --> 01:07:43,840 Speaker 1: and I've got BC and C grades on his receivers, 1412 01:07:43,840 --> 01:07:47,760 Speaker 1: so certainly startable here. Washington secondary isn't the doormat of 1413 01:07:47,800 --> 01:07:51,120 Speaker 1: past seasons, and no quarterback has topped one touchdown against 1414 01:07:51,200 --> 01:07:54,240 Speaker 1: Washington in a month, which is super weird. Three of 1415 01:07:54,240 --> 01:07:57,400 Speaker 1: the past four quarterbacks did not top one hundred and 1416 01:07:57,440 --> 01:07:58,960 Speaker 1: forty two passing yards. 1417 01:07:58,960 --> 01:08:00,920 Speaker 3: Really really low, really really. 1418 01:08:01,000 --> 01:08:03,080 Speaker 1: I mean, what are we talking about here? An emerging 1419 01:08:03,080 --> 01:08:07,800 Speaker 1: elite pass defense for Washington seems weird. Maybe let's go 1420 01:08:07,840 --> 01:08:12,280 Speaker 1: to the Washington side. Love Brian Robinson in this game, Massive, 1421 01:08:12,480 --> 01:08:15,120 Speaker 1: Massive game potentially incoming. The way to beat the Bears 1422 01:08:15,200 --> 01:08:17,880 Speaker 1: is on the ground, where Chicago far more vulnerable than 1423 01:08:17,920 --> 01:08:20,599 Speaker 1: against the pass, where they're elite. In the past month 1424 01:08:20,600 --> 01:08:23,479 Speaker 1: of games, Chewba Hubbard, Kyron Williams, and Jonathan Taylor of 1425 01:08:23,520 --> 01:08:26,920 Speaker 1: all posted touchdowns at least ninety seven rushing yards. Love 1426 01:08:27,000 --> 01:08:28,800 Speaker 1: Brian Robinson with an A grade in this one, and 1427 01:08:28,840 --> 01:08:30,800 Speaker 1: staying with the running game, Austin Eckler comes in with 1428 01:08:30,840 --> 01:08:33,519 Speaker 1: a C. You know, we'll see a run orientation for 1429 01:08:33,680 --> 01:08:36,280 Speaker 1: Washington with or without Jayden Daniels. We'll talk about that 1430 01:08:36,320 --> 01:08:38,679 Speaker 1: in a minute. Eckler's been a really nice PPR helper 1431 01:08:39,160 --> 01:08:41,519 Speaker 1: except last week when they blew out the Panthers and 1432 01:08:41,520 --> 01:08:45,160 Speaker 1: then basically he just rested. His three catches for forty 1433 01:08:45,200 --> 01:08:48,799 Speaker 1: yards per game gets you seven PPR points right away, 1434 01:08:48,840 --> 01:08:51,479 Speaker 1: and all the rushings, gravy Bears run defense, middle of 1435 01:08:51,479 --> 01:08:54,679 Speaker 1: the pack, and pretty much every meaningful metric, Austin Eckler 1436 01:08:54,800 --> 01:08:57,559 Speaker 1: gets a sea grape. Now, if Jaydon Daniels goes, he's 1437 01:08:57,600 --> 01:09:02,280 Speaker 1: a game time decision. Certainly start, but I worry that 1438 01:09:02,320 --> 01:09:05,360 Speaker 1: the team will protect his ribs by not letting him run, 1439 01:09:05,720 --> 01:09:07,840 Speaker 1: and then if I just have to rely on Jade 1440 01:09:07,840 --> 01:09:10,920 Speaker 1: and Daniels passing, this is a tough matchup against a 1441 01:09:10,960 --> 01:09:15,080 Speaker 1: really good secondary the Bears. The Bears do have injuries 1442 01:09:15,080 --> 01:09:17,639 Speaker 1: in their secondary. Slack cornerback Kyler Gordon just got put 1443 01:09:17,680 --> 01:09:20,920 Speaker 1: on IR and starting safety Jaquan Brisker got put on IR. 1444 01:09:21,080 --> 01:09:24,200 Speaker 1: So I'm hoping that we can get a B grade 1445 01:09:24,200 --> 01:09:26,920 Speaker 1: out of Jalen Daniels one way or another. But he's 1446 01:09:27,000 --> 01:09:29,840 Speaker 1: got some flop to him here, some dud potential if 1447 01:09:29,880 --> 01:09:32,000 Speaker 1: he does not run to protect the ribs that I 1448 01:09:32,040 --> 01:09:33,920 Speaker 1: want you to be aware of. If he does go 1449 01:09:34,120 --> 01:09:36,360 Speaker 1: in this one. If he doesn't go, I've got a 1450 01:09:36,400 --> 01:09:39,240 Speaker 1: C grade on Marcus Mariota and a B grade on 1451 01:09:39,360 --> 01:09:43,200 Speaker 1: Jaden Daniels. But let's talk through where this gets really thorny. 1452 01:09:43,280 --> 01:09:43,719 Speaker 3: Oh Boys. 1453 01:09:44,000 --> 01:09:47,920 Speaker 1: Terry McLaurin, he's got a brutal matchup with the best 1454 01:09:48,040 --> 01:09:52,000 Speaker 1: coverage cornerback in football outside of maybe Patrick certain and 1455 01:09:52,080 --> 01:09:56,000 Speaker 1: that's Jalen Johnson. He will shadow in this spot because 1456 01:09:56,040 --> 01:09:59,439 Speaker 1: there's nobody else worth shadowing. And look at what he's 1457 01:09:59,479 --> 01:10:04,040 Speaker 1: done to a They're good number one receivers Deontay Johnson 1458 01:10:04,200 --> 01:10:07,800 Speaker 1: twenty three yards two weeks ago, two games ago, previous game, 1459 01:10:08,120 --> 01:10:12,439 Speaker 1: Brian Thomas twenty seven yards on average. Jalen Johnson gives 1460 01:10:12,520 --> 01:10:16,360 Speaker 1: up one and a half catches for eighteen yards in 1461 01:10:16,479 --> 01:10:21,120 Speaker 1: his coverage. That's it. Now the Bears slot corners. I 1462 01:10:21,120 --> 01:10:23,799 Speaker 1: mentioned Kyler Gordon's out, so maybe they move Terry McLaurin 1463 01:10:23,840 --> 01:10:27,080 Speaker 1: into the slots to try to grid him of Jalen Johnson, 1464 01:10:27,479 --> 01:10:29,719 Speaker 1: and that could That's why I'm giving a SE grade 1465 01:10:29,760 --> 01:10:31,920 Speaker 1: to Terry McLaurin, But otherwise this will be a bench 1466 01:10:31,960 --> 01:10:34,800 Speaker 1: grade against Jalen Johnson. Zach Ertz comes in with a 1467 01:10:34,880 --> 01:10:37,280 Speaker 1: c grade and Ertz could be helpful against the team 1468 01:10:37,280 --> 01:10:40,040 Speaker 1: that just gave up eleven catches and a one hundred 1469 01:10:40,120 --> 01:10:44,000 Speaker 1: yard game. The Jaguars tight ends. If mclaurin's neutralized, you know, 1470 01:10:44,080 --> 01:10:47,240 Speaker 1: mariot Ar Daniels will need to find alternative receiving options 1471 01:10:47,240 --> 01:10:51,559 Speaker 1: and that could be zach Ertz in this game. I 1472 01:10:51,600 --> 01:10:52,320 Speaker 1: think it's time to. 1473 01:10:52,240 --> 01:10:54,599 Speaker 3: Go to a break sure, straight, Yeah, let's do that. 1474 01:10:54,840 --> 01:10:56,440 Speaker 3: Final block of matchups. 1475 01:10:56,040 --> 01:10:59,280 Speaker 1: Coming up, including Cowboys and Niners. Lots of moving parts 1476 01:10:59,280 --> 01:11:00,840 Speaker 1: with this Niners situation. 1477 01:11:01,000 --> 01:11:02,440 Speaker 3: Will we speculate prematurely? 1478 01:11:02,640 --> 01:11:06,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, we will speculate prematurely. Oh, we are very excite. 1479 01:11:06,320 --> 01:11:10,679 Speaker 1: In fact, the contentious version of premature school comic Thord 1480 01:11:10,760 --> 01:11:13,160 Speaker 1: is a he and I are gonna go Mono Imano 1481 01:11:13,720 --> 01:11:37,719 Speaker 1: when we come back to Fantasy Football Weekly, final segment 1482 01:11:37,720 --> 01:11:40,840 Speaker 1: of Fantasy Football Weekly, we always start this one with 1483 01:11:41,080 --> 01:11:43,920 Speaker 1: a trip to the Fantasy Football Weekly time Machine. 1484 01:11:44,040 --> 01:11:45,320 Speaker 3: Premature speculation. 1485 01:11:45,439 --> 01:11:47,280 Speaker 1: Players you want to pick up now that other people 1486 01:11:47,400 --> 01:11:49,599 Speaker 1: be trying to pick up next week, but they're already 1487 01:11:49,600 --> 01:11:51,360 Speaker 1: on your team. Yes, Scott Fish, who you got? 1488 01:11:51,520 --> 01:11:54,160 Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with Khalil Herbert, who has been talks 1489 01:11:54,200 --> 01:11:57,320 Speaker 3: of trade rumors of the last couple of weeks. Maybe, 1490 01:11:57,400 --> 01:11:59,640 Speaker 3: just maybe you can grab him, stash him and he 1491 01:11:59,680 --> 01:12:02,640 Speaker 3: becomes the Dallas back before the trade deadline. That'd be 1492 01:12:02,640 --> 01:12:05,160 Speaker 3: the place, right, Yes, but mostly I'm going to take 1493 01:12:05,240 --> 01:12:09,120 Speaker 3: my mid year, mid fantasy regular season time to say, 1494 01:12:09,320 --> 01:12:11,599 Speaker 3: go pick up backup running backs if they're out there. 1495 01:12:11,640 --> 01:12:14,280 Speaker 3: The Jalen Rights, the Blake Corms, the Kamani Videls, the 1496 01:12:14,320 --> 01:12:17,599 Speaker 3: Arodrick Estimates, the Tyler Goodson, Sean Tucker, Ray Davis, Braylan 1497 01:12:17,680 --> 01:12:21,120 Speaker 3: all and Tyler Lgier, Warren Rashawn Johnson, any of those guys. 1498 01:12:21,160 --> 01:12:24,640 Speaker 3: Pick them up. Injuries happen, things happen at the end 1499 01:12:24,640 --> 01:12:27,160 Speaker 3: of the season. Every year, one or two of the 1500 01:12:27,200 --> 01:12:30,240 Speaker 3: backups become very fantasy relevant at the end of the season. 1501 01:12:30,640 --> 01:12:33,200 Speaker 1: Justice Hill would be Oh Justice. 1502 01:12:32,960 --> 01:12:33,719 Speaker 3: Hill another one. 1503 01:12:33,880 --> 01:12:35,599 Speaker 1: Yes, he's pretty goood. 1504 01:12:35,720 --> 01:12:36,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, credit him. 1505 01:12:36,800 --> 01:12:38,880 Speaker 1: I thought he was very mundane with you first few 1506 01:12:38,920 --> 01:12:42,040 Speaker 1: years in the league. Man, he's like, no dynamic to 1507 01:12:42,120 --> 01:12:46,160 Speaker 1: that offense. All right, your premature speculation player for I 1508 01:12:46,560 --> 01:12:46,840 Speaker 1: liked it. 1509 01:12:46,840 --> 01:12:49,920 Speaker 6: Fish did a former rock Chalker in Khalil Herbert finish 1510 01:12:50,000 --> 01:12:51,240 Speaker 6: his career a Virginia Tech. 1511 01:12:51,280 --> 01:12:53,559 Speaker 4: But Sara at Kansas, I'm going with you would aybody 1512 01:12:53,560 --> 01:12:55,160 Speaker 4: ever leave Kansas? I don't know. 1513 01:12:56,160 --> 01:12:58,160 Speaker 6: Well, I suppose I came to back to Minnesota, but 1514 01:12:58,560 --> 01:13:02,160 Speaker 6: I'm going with Ricky Piersow for respect. He's only owned 1515 01:13:02,160 --> 01:13:05,760 Speaker 6: in five and a half percent of ESPN leagues. Oh yeah, 1516 01:13:06,120 --> 01:13:07,439 Speaker 6: at least when I looked it up a day or 1517 01:13:07,479 --> 01:13:10,639 Speaker 6: two ago. Brandon Ayuka Korus out for the season, Juwan 1518 01:13:10,760 --> 01:13:13,639 Speaker 6: Jennings out with a hip injury, Deebo and George Kittle 1519 01:13:13,680 --> 01:13:17,360 Speaker 6: both questionable. Pearsall needs to be rostered in all formats. 1520 01:13:17,880 --> 01:13:20,439 Speaker 6: Six foot, one hundred, ninety pounds, he was ninety ninth 1521 01:13:20,479 --> 01:13:24,040 Speaker 6: percentile athlete coming out. I comped him to Adam Thielen. 1522 01:13:24,400 --> 01:13:26,920 Speaker 6: The last three years. Pearsall was the wide receiver one 1523 01:13:27,000 --> 01:13:29,880 Speaker 6: in college for Jayden Daniels at Arizona State, then for 1524 01:13:29,960 --> 01:13:33,439 Speaker 6: Anthony Richardson and Graham Mertz at Florida. He swaps. You 1525 01:13:33,439 --> 01:13:36,280 Speaker 6: can use them both in the slot or on the boundary. 1526 01:13:36,560 --> 01:13:39,120 Speaker 6: Exceptional hands. He had an eighty six point eight PFF 1527 01:13:39,160 --> 01:13:41,879 Speaker 6: hands grade in twenty twenty three. This from my scouting 1528 01:13:41,920 --> 01:13:44,760 Speaker 6: report over this spring at Vansfield. For route running and 1529 01:13:44,800 --> 01:13:47,280 Speaker 6: coverage designs, he will modify his path to get into 1530 01:13:47,320 --> 01:13:51,160 Speaker 6: open grass against zone and flick unpredictable and unsettling tempo 1531 01:13:51,280 --> 01:13:54,479 Speaker 6: changes at defenders in man like a toddler in control 1532 01:13:54,520 --> 01:13:57,479 Speaker 6: of your car's volume. Nub pier saw Mary's head deep 1533 01:13:57,800 --> 01:14:00,320 Speaker 6: head and shoulder deeks with sudden cuts at the peak 1534 01:14:00,360 --> 01:14:03,680 Speaker 6: of his stem to Coke's false steps, deliberate footwork in 1535 01:14:03,720 --> 01:14:05,840 Speaker 6: and out of breaks. On extended plays, He'll throw the 1536 01:14:06,720 --> 01:14:09,519 Speaker 6: He'll throw the plane out the window and freelance himself open. 1537 01:14:09,800 --> 01:14:12,800 Speaker 6: I really really like Ricky Piersow. He has the opportunity. 1538 01:14:12,800 --> 01:14:14,760 Speaker 6: Now I expect him to put up numbers. 1539 01:14:15,920 --> 01:14:19,479 Speaker 1: It's come to this. The healthy forty nine er receiver 1540 01:14:19,720 --> 01:14:25,360 Speaker 1: is the gunshot victim. Yeah, crazy, crazy turn of all right, 1541 01:14:25,360 --> 01:14:26,800 Speaker 1: so this are you and I are going to different thought. 1542 01:14:27,640 --> 01:14:31,240 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay slot receiver last year, Chris Godwin. They foolishly 1543 01:14:31,280 --> 01:14:34,000 Speaker 1: moved him outside where it's productivity. Wait wait, wait, moved 1544 01:14:34,040 --> 01:14:36,639 Speaker 1: him back inside this year and Godwin went through the roof. 1545 01:14:37,200 --> 01:14:39,439 Speaker 1: The guy who played the slot last year four hundred 1546 01:14:39,439 --> 01:14:42,000 Speaker 1: and twelve snaps, Trey Palmer. Now they got all these 1547 01:14:42,000 --> 01:14:45,280 Speaker 1: moving parts with Evans and Godwin, but going out in 1548 01:14:45,320 --> 01:14:47,760 Speaker 1: the same game. I don't know that they automatically move 1549 01:14:48,000 --> 01:14:51,840 Speaker 1: McMillan even though his college he ran the slought a 1550 01:14:51,840 --> 01:14:54,000 Speaker 1: lot and ran effectively there. But I don't know if 1551 01:14:54,000 --> 01:14:56,760 Speaker 1: they want to change like all three receivers, and what 1552 01:14:56,840 --> 01:14:59,240 Speaker 1: they do could be they just asked Trey Palmer to 1553 01:14:59,280 --> 01:15:01,200 Speaker 1: walk into the Chris Godwin rolled because that's what he 1554 01:15:01,200 --> 01:15:03,519 Speaker 1: did last year with all the snaps that he got. 1555 01:15:03,560 --> 01:15:06,960 Speaker 1: So I'm throwing a little speculative love at Trey Palmer 1556 01:15:07,000 --> 01:15:08,080 Speaker 1: to see if he hits the slot. 1557 01:15:08,520 --> 01:15:09,240 Speaker 3: You don't think he would. 1558 01:15:09,439 --> 01:15:12,720 Speaker 1: I think we'll find out. Yeah, but we both want 1559 01:15:12,760 --> 01:15:15,480 Speaker 1: the slot reces. Yes we do in the Tampa. 1560 01:15:16,000 --> 01:15:16,599 Speaker 3: If you need it. 1561 01:15:16,760 --> 01:15:18,679 Speaker 1: All right, let's go to the final set of games 1562 01:15:18,680 --> 01:15:21,439 Speaker 1: Sunday Night football, Dallas taking San Francisco Scott. 1563 01:15:22,120 --> 01:15:26,200 Speaker 3: Yeah. So Jamie Eisenberg mentioned this this week, how dak's 1564 01:15:26,400 --> 01:15:28,840 Speaker 3: worst game after a bye and and this is a 1565 01:15:28,880 --> 01:15:31,639 Speaker 3: no small sam this like eight years is twenty two 1566 01:15:31,640 --> 01:15:34,479 Speaker 3: fantasy points. He averages twenty eight in the last three 1567 01:15:34,640 --> 01:15:37,240 Speaker 3: is at like twenty eight, thirty four thirty. He comes 1568 01:15:37,280 --> 01:15:41,080 Speaker 3: out of the by just blazing firing. It is a 1569 01:15:41,120 --> 01:15:43,679 Speaker 3: tough matchup, though, against the forty nine Ers defense, who's 1570 01:15:43,720 --> 01:15:46,479 Speaker 3: only allowed one QB to throw for multiple scores. That 1571 01:15:46,600 --> 01:15:49,760 Speaker 3: was of course, Sam Darnold only one passer over two 1572 01:15:49,840 --> 01:15:52,040 Speaker 3: hundred and seventy yards. It was Gino Smith and it 1573 01:15:52,080 --> 01:15:56,519 Speaker 3: took fifty two attempts. But Deak Prescott is way up 1574 01:15:56,560 --> 01:15:59,400 Speaker 3: on that list in attempts and passing yards. He they 1575 01:15:59,439 --> 01:16:01,680 Speaker 3: throw a lot because they don't have a run game, 1576 01:16:01,720 --> 01:16:03,559 Speaker 3: so I'm gonna give him a C grade. He might 1577 01:16:03,560 --> 01:16:05,280 Speaker 3: even end up it with a B if this becomes 1578 01:16:05,280 --> 01:16:07,720 Speaker 3: it becomes a little bit of a shootout, but C 1579 01:16:07,920 --> 01:16:10,880 Speaker 3: grade for him. In the past game, Ceedee Lamb with 1580 01:16:10,960 --> 01:16:12,960 Speaker 3: the A grade, and Jalen Tolbert is going to get 1581 01:16:13,000 --> 01:16:16,240 Speaker 3: the C grade. San Francisco allows the third highest percentage 1582 01:16:16,280 --> 01:16:18,960 Speaker 3: of Fantasy points to the slot. It's where teams kind 1583 01:16:18,960 --> 01:16:21,960 Speaker 3: of attack them. The tenth most fantasy points to the slot. 1584 01:16:22,360 --> 01:16:25,160 Speaker 3: Ceedee Lamb. That's where he's gonna live double digit Fantasy 1585 01:16:25,160 --> 01:16:27,080 Speaker 3: points weekly. I don't really need to go for him much. 1586 01:16:27,160 --> 01:16:30,559 Speaker 3: He's just good. Jalen Tolbert. The run game is not 1587 01:16:30,600 --> 01:16:32,519 Speaker 3: gonna do much here, so they'll need the pass game, 1588 01:16:32,560 --> 01:16:35,600 Speaker 3: and Tolbert is the two second on the team. Basically 1589 01:16:35,760 --> 01:16:39,679 Speaker 3: every category technically gets the toughest matchup in Javarius Ward, 1590 01:16:40,160 --> 01:16:43,000 Speaker 3: but Jalen Tolbert moves around thirty thirty one to thirty 1591 01:16:43,040 --> 01:16:45,120 Speaker 3: nine percent all over the field. He's gonna be able 1592 01:16:45,120 --> 01:16:47,200 Speaker 3: to avoid him and get to his four for fifty 1593 01:16:47,280 --> 01:16:51,280 Speaker 3: average at minimum. Jake Ferguson, I got a B grade on. 1594 01:16:51,800 --> 01:16:55,120 Speaker 3: He averaged six for seventy one yards in three games 1595 01:16:55,160 --> 01:16:58,720 Speaker 3: prior to last week's dud. And he's going against a 1596 01:16:58,840 --> 01:17:02,599 Speaker 3: team that ranks top five in multiple categories. But over 1597 01:17:02,640 --> 01:17:05,200 Speaker 3: the last three weeks they've let up four for sixty six, 1598 01:17:05,400 --> 01:17:08,320 Speaker 3: six for sixty three, and six for fifty three against 1599 01:17:08,320 --> 01:17:10,840 Speaker 3: the tight ends leading tight end. So I do have 1600 01:17:10,880 --> 01:17:13,400 Speaker 3: a B grade here for him. I have Daudo on 1601 01:17:13,439 --> 01:17:15,720 Speaker 3: the bench. Really really, his only good game was the 1602 01:17:15,760 --> 01:17:18,400 Speaker 3: twenty two touch day. I don't think that's in for 1603 01:17:18,479 --> 01:17:19,000 Speaker 3: him here. 1604 01:17:19,360 --> 01:17:19,719 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1605 01:17:19,760 --> 01:17:22,680 Speaker 3: So over to the San Francisco side, Brock Perty, I 1606 01:17:22,720 --> 01:17:25,120 Speaker 3: got the B grade on Cowboys have the third highest 1607 01:17:25,120 --> 01:17:27,760 Speaker 3: pressure rate, but Perty throws a ton. He's got this. 1608 01:17:28,000 --> 01:17:30,880 Speaker 1: No Lawrence and no Bicah Parsons, no Micah Parsings, exactly 1609 01:17:30,880 --> 01:17:32,200 Speaker 1: pure rate was built on these. 1610 01:17:32,560 --> 01:17:36,120 Speaker 3: I was just getting there, yep. Pretty second highest in 1611 01:17:36,360 --> 01:17:40,280 Speaker 3: average depth of target behind only Richardson, second in pass yards, 1612 01:17:40,280 --> 01:17:44,000 Speaker 3: second in yards per attempt air yards, They throw a lot, 1613 01:17:44,080 --> 01:17:46,519 Speaker 3: and the Cowboys have allowed multiple scores in four of 1614 01:17:46,560 --> 01:17:49,640 Speaker 3: the last five, and those quarterbacks had twenty seven or 1615 01:17:49,640 --> 01:17:51,799 Speaker 3: fewer attempts. They didn't even need a lot of volume 1616 01:17:51,800 --> 01:17:54,599 Speaker 3: to be able to do it. So b grade for perty. 1617 01:17:55,080 --> 01:17:59,360 Speaker 3: If Debo goes Deebo's dealing with that pneumonia. It sounded 1618 01:17:59,400 --> 01:18:01,280 Speaker 3: like he might be to go, but he is questionable 1619 01:18:01,280 --> 01:18:04,080 Speaker 3: in a game tight decision. If he goes, Dallas allows 1620 01:18:04,120 --> 01:18:07,400 Speaker 3: the fourth fewest Fantasy points to the slot, which could 1621 01:18:07,400 --> 01:18:11,080 Speaker 3: mostly affect him or Piersoll if Debo doesn't go, but 1622 01:18:11,280 --> 01:18:14,240 Speaker 3: without Brandon Ayuk on the field, he gets about forty 1623 01:18:14,280 --> 01:18:16,639 Speaker 3: percent of the target share and air yards. That could 1624 01:18:16,680 --> 01:18:20,559 Speaker 3: be a lot of volume there for Debo, and the 1625 01:18:20,560 --> 01:18:23,280 Speaker 3: target leader against the Cowboys has scored or hit one 1626 01:18:23,320 --> 01:18:27,200 Speaker 3: hundred plus yards in five of six games. Ricky piersall 1627 01:18:28,000 --> 01:18:30,679 Speaker 3: Thorpe pretty much took every one of my talking points, 1628 01:18:30,680 --> 01:18:34,120 Speaker 3: but I will note after Ayuk left he had three 1629 01:18:34,160 --> 01:18:36,479 Speaker 3: for twenty one on four targets. He even got the 1630 01:18:36,479 --> 01:18:39,439 Speaker 3: two point conversion attempt, and he led the forty nine 1631 01:18:39,520 --> 01:18:42,640 Speaker 3: ers in routes run. George Kittle also questionable with that 1632 01:18:42,680 --> 01:18:44,679 Speaker 3: foot injury, but this is a great spot for him. 1633 01:18:44,760 --> 01:18:47,200 Speaker 3: If he goes, I will still give him the A. 1634 01:18:47,720 --> 01:18:50,080 Speaker 3: They've allowed three tight the Cowboys have allowed three tight 1635 01:18:50,160 --> 01:18:52,559 Speaker 3: end scores in the last two weeks. Kittle leads on 1636 01:18:52,880 --> 01:18:55,360 Speaker 3: the all tight ends and targets inside the twenty, inside 1637 01:18:55,360 --> 01:18:58,639 Speaker 3: the ten, inside the five, red zone, target, red zone scores, 1638 01:18:58,680 --> 01:19:01,160 Speaker 3: all of it. So a grade there, and Jordan Mason 1639 01:19:01,240 --> 01:19:02,240 Speaker 3: is getting a grade. 1640 01:19:02,360 --> 01:19:02,960 Speaker 1: I love him. 1641 01:19:03,040 --> 01:19:05,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's he's been giving their but the rock nine 1642 01:19:05,720 --> 01:19:08,120 Speaker 3: times inside the five, which is good for fourth most. 1643 01:19:08,120 --> 01:19:10,080 Speaker 3: But he's only scored twice. That's the problem. 1644 01:19:10,200 --> 01:19:11,479 Speaker 1: No, because he's some touchdowns. 1645 01:19:11,720 --> 01:19:15,000 Speaker 3: He sees forty of eight man boxes. He's just that's 1646 01:19:15,040 --> 01:19:17,599 Speaker 3: what it is. But a lot of backs have done really, 1647 01:19:17,640 --> 01:19:21,479 Speaker 3: really well against Dallas, Montgomery, Henry Kamara all had multiple 1648 01:19:21,520 --> 01:19:26,320 Speaker 3: scores and backs with major volume like Mason does in 1649 01:19:26,360 --> 01:19:31,040 Speaker 3: the two in his two full healthy games where they won. Uh, 1650 01:19:31,080 --> 01:19:33,040 Speaker 3: he got twenty six and twenty eight touches. That kind 1651 01:19:33,040 --> 01:19:35,120 Speaker 3: of volume A grade, Thord. 1652 01:19:35,280 --> 01:19:39,040 Speaker 1: Let's go to the Monday Nighter Giants taking on the 1653 01:19:39,080 --> 01:19:43,280 Speaker 1: Steelers Molakue neighbors. Will they quiet game last week? Do 1654 01:19:43,320 --> 01:19:46,040 Speaker 1: you see a bounce back coming here against the Steelers. 1655 01:19:46,240 --> 01:19:46,719 Speaker 4: Definitely. 1656 01:19:46,880 --> 01:19:50,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, for and the targets right, So for me, Neighbors 1657 01:19:51,000 --> 01:19:52,520 Speaker 6: is in the must art territory. 1658 01:19:52,720 --> 01:19:56,280 Speaker 4: You know, he gets a weekly a for me. Daniel 1659 01:19:56,880 --> 01:19:58,599 Speaker 4: Daniel Jones, I'll give him a seed. 1660 01:19:58,640 --> 01:20:00,639 Speaker 6: The past two weeks he only has three four yards, 1661 01:20:00,720 --> 01:20:04,120 Speaker 6: zero touchdowns, thirtieth in yards per attempt and fantasy points 1662 01:20:04,160 --> 01:20:07,639 Speaker 6: per dropback. Pittsburgh has allowed the eleventh fewest passing touchdowns 1663 01:20:07,640 --> 01:20:10,040 Speaker 6: and seventh lowest passer rating. Not the best matchup, but 1664 01:20:10,720 --> 01:20:12,800 Speaker 6: some of the other quarterbacks around the league not the 1665 01:20:12,800 --> 01:20:14,840 Speaker 6: best this week, so I did give Jones a C. 1666 01:20:15,640 --> 01:20:18,840 Speaker 6: Singletary and Tracy, I don't know. I toss this to 1667 01:20:18,840 --> 01:20:21,599 Speaker 6: you guys if you disagree with me, I'm keeping both 1668 01:20:21,640 --> 01:20:24,120 Speaker 6: of them on the bench this week. Yeah, you know, 1669 01:20:24,200 --> 01:20:26,479 Speaker 6: you had the split usage against the Eagles last week 1670 01:20:26,520 --> 01:20:28,880 Speaker 6: to kill both their fantasy values. They only had fifty 1671 01:20:28,880 --> 01:20:32,000 Speaker 6: three total yards combined. Now the Giants played the third 1672 01:20:32,080 --> 01:20:35,759 Speaker 6: ranked Steelers run defense. Pittsburgh allows the seventh fewest fantasy 1673 01:20:35,800 --> 01:20:39,040 Speaker 6: points to opposing running backs. So yeah, it's just hard 1674 01:20:39,080 --> 01:20:40,720 Speaker 6: to trust either of them, so I'm keeping them on 1675 01:20:40,760 --> 01:20:44,479 Speaker 6: the bench. Also, Darius Slayton bench, He's going to be 1676 01:20:44,479 --> 01:20:47,479 Speaker 6: a race by Dante Jackson here and Jan Dale will 1677 01:20:47,520 --> 01:20:51,000 Speaker 6: give him a C wide receiver eighteen and PPR, but 1678 01:20:51,080 --> 01:20:53,719 Speaker 6: only as two weeks as a top thirty Fantasy wide receiver. 1679 01:20:54,200 --> 01:20:57,800 Speaker 6: Bad matchup to project Robinson's volume to turn into anything. Here, 1680 01:20:58,040 --> 01:21:00,639 Speaker 6: the Steelers have allowed the third fewest adjusted yards per 1681 01:21:00,640 --> 01:21:04,320 Speaker 6: attempt to opposing slot receivers. Moving over to those Steelers, 1682 01:21:04,400 --> 01:21:08,760 Speaker 6: Russell Wilson gave him a blow start slow start last week, 1683 01:21:08,760 --> 01:21:12,240 Speaker 6: but would you go a see okay, okay, Yeah, I 1684 01:21:12,680 --> 01:21:14,920 Speaker 6: won be slow start last week, but ended up having 1685 01:21:14,920 --> 01:21:17,920 Speaker 6: that really good debut the return against the Jets debut 1686 01:21:17,920 --> 01:21:20,720 Speaker 6: in Pittsburgh, two hundred and sixty four passing years, two touchdowns, 1687 01:21:21,000 --> 01:21:24,040 Speaker 6: had the rushing touchdown as well, twenty nine fantasy points. 1688 01:21:24,120 --> 01:21:25,400 Speaker 4: Obviously a very good matchup. 1689 01:21:25,439 --> 01:21:28,000 Speaker 6: The Giants have allowed the ninth most fantasy points to 1690 01:21:28,040 --> 01:21:29,639 Speaker 6: opposing quarterbacks this season. 1691 01:21:29,800 --> 01:21:32,280 Speaker 1: I'm a little worried the Giants pass rush is just 1692 01:21:32,400 --> 01:21:34,840 Speaker 1: gonna new They're gonna just wreak havoc at the line 1693 01:21:34,840 --> 01:21:37,519 Speaker 1: of scrimmage. Yeah, that's the that's the part that worries me. 1694 01:21:37,600 --> 01:21:40,920 Speaker 6: Could good for sure nausea. I gave him a b 1695 01:21:41,240 --> 01:21:43,760 Speaker 6: RB twenty five and Fantasy points per game. He gets 1696 01:21:43,800 --> 01:21:47,160 Speaker 6: the red zone work sixty one percent of snap of 1697 01:21:47,240 --> 01:21:49,000 Speaker 6: the snaps inside the twenty yard line. 1698 01:21:49,760 --> 01:21:51,160 Speaker 4: A solid matchup for him as well. 1699 01:21:51,200 --> 01:21:53,719 Speaker 6: Giants have allowed the eighth most rushing yards per game 1700 01:21:54,400 --> 01:21:57,599 Speaker 6: and have the second highest misstackle rate in the NFL, 1701 01:21:57,920 --> 01:22:00,160 Speaker 6: so we could see some broken tackles and getting the 1702 01:22:00,200 --> 01:22:03,240 Speaker 6: second level for Nase. I gave Jalen Warren a see 1703 01:22:03,600 --> 01:22:06,040 Speaker 6: finally appears to be one hundred percent off his ribs 1704 01:22:06,080 --> 01:22:08,960 Speaker 6: injury Week seven against the Jets, he had twelve carries 1705 01:22:08,960 --> 01:22:12,080 Speaker 6: for forty four yards and two catches for fifteen yards. 1706 01:22:12,360 --> 01:22:14,720 Speaker 6: Warren is worth using as a flex this week. I 1707 01:22:14,760 --> 01:22:17,400 Speaker 6: believe that Giants have allowed six running backs to score 1708 01:22:17,439 --> 01:22:21,040 Speaker 6: thirteen PPR points. George Pickens I gave him a be 1709 01:22:21,280 --> 01:22:23,720 Speaker 6: wide receiver thirty four and fantasy points per game. He's 1710 01:22:23,760 --> 01:22:27,240 Speaker 6: a target hound of Chorus thirty five plus percent first 1711 01:22:27,320 --> 01:22:30,519 Speaker 6: read share. And here is an interesting thing about this matchup. 1712 01:22:30,560 --> 01:22:33,960 Speaker 6: His target share spikes to almost thirty three percent against 1713 01:22:34,000 --> 01:22:37,200 Speaker 6: single high. The Giants have the sixth highest single high 1714 01:22:37,280 --> 01:22:40,559 Speaker 6: rate in the entire NFL. Oh wow, very advantageous matchup 1715 01:22:40,600 --> 01:22:43,479 Speaker 6: for George Pickens and then Pat Fryarmouth I gave him 1716 01:22:43,479 --> 01:22:45,920 Speaker 6: a C. He only has one top ten tight end 1717 01:22:45,960 --> 01:22:49,160 Speaker 6: showing this year, and this isn't the best matchup for him. 1718 01:22:49,280 --> 01:22:51,600 Speaker 6: The Giants have allowed the seventh fewest fantasy points to 1719 01:22:51,600 --> 01:22:52,759 Speaker 6: opposing tight ends. 1720 01:22:53,200 --> 01:22:54,880 Speaker 1: And the last game that we haven't gotten to you 1721 01:22:55,000 --> 01:22:57,519 Speaker 1: Chiefs taking on the Raiders, Kareem Hunts just turned into. 1722 01:22:57,360 --> 01:22:59,800 Speaker 3: Like obvious ace Yes, huge belco. 1723 01:22:59,640 --> 01:23:01,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, twenty seven and twenty two. 1724 01:23:01,200 --> 01:23:05,040 Speaker 3: Care Remember Carson Steele, Look, I must see this coming. 1725 01:23:05,560 --> 01:23:08,439 Speaker 3: I heard someone say that on a show. Remember Carson Steel. 1726 01:23:08,600 --> 01:23:12,360 Speaker 1: I know right, Look, I I'm shocked by this turn 1727 01:23:12,400 --> 01:23:14,760 Speaker 1: of events for Kareem Hunt A grade. Let's go to 1728 01:23:14,800 --> 01:23:18,120 Speaker 1: the passing game. Patrick Mahomes B grade, which are starting 1729 01:23:18,120 --> 01:23:21,120 Speaker 1: to feel generous, these B grades they keep giving Patrick Mahomes. 1730 01:23:21,280 --> 01:23:23,639 Speaker 1: He's playing well, but it's just not translating into fantasy 1731 01:23:23,640 --> 01:23:28,360 Speaker 1: points because he's not throwing downfield. Mahomes ranks twenty seventh 1732 01:23:28,680 --> 01:23:32,479 Speaker 1: in completions of more than twenty yards. He used to 1733 01:23:32,560 --> 01:23:34,400 Speaker 1: kill the Raiders in the old days, but they've held 1734 01:23:34,439 --> 01:23:36,679 Speaker 1: him in check last year and they've been much improved 1735 01:23:36,720 --> 01:23:39,840 Speaker 1: as a pass defense this year. The last four quarterbacks 1736 01:23:39,880 --> 01:23:43,280 Speaker 1: to face Vegas have averaged one hundred and seventy yards 1737 01:23:43,320 --> 01:23:46,680 Speaker 1: and less than one touchdown per game can only get 1738 01:23:46,720 --> 01:23:48,280 Speaker 1: you to a B grade on Mahomes, and if it 1739 01:23:48,280 --> 01:23:50,320 Speaker 1: were anybody else, I'd probably be giving a C grade. 1740 01:23:50,439 --> 01:23:53,240 Speaker 1: Travis Kelcey is going to maintain a B barely hasn't. 1741 01:23:53,560 --> 01:23:56,000 Speaker 1: The Raiders haven't played any great tight ends, but they've 1742 01:23:56,040 --> 01:23:59,360 Speaker 1: been terrific against the position. No tight end is top 1743 01:23:59,439 --> 01:24:02,840 Speaker 1: thirty two yards since Week two. They've only allowed one 1744 01:24:02,880 --> 01:24:06,000 Speaker 1: tight end touchdown all year. But Kelsey's on the field 1745 01:24:06,560 --> 01:24:09,639 Speaker 1: almost every snap of the game, and he's only one 1746 01:24:09,680 --> 01:24:13,200 Speaker 1: game removed from back to back tight end top ten 1747 01:24:13,320 --> 01:24:16,360 Speaker 1: tight end efforts, So gonna be optimistic that he bounces 1748 01:24:16,360 --> 01:24:18,560 Speaker 1: back here be grade on him. Then I've got C 1749 01:24:18,760 --> 01:24:22,679 Speaker 1: grades on Justin Watson, me Cole Hartman, and Xavier Worthy 1750 01:24:22,960 --> 01:24:25,800 Speaker 1: because Juju Smith, schuster Is and Sky Moore have both 1751 01:24:25,800 --> 01:24:28,840 Speaker 1: been ruled out of this game. Watson was already on 1752 01:24:28,880 --> 01:24:31,519 Speaker 1: the field a lot, averaging a seventy one percent route 1753 01:24:31,560 --> 01:24:34,120 Speaker 1: raid over the past three weeks. He's a sneaky DFS 1754 01:24:34,120 --> 01:24:36,880 Speaker 1: play here Harden and seeing the field a lot less, 1755 01:24:36,920 --> 01:24:39,040 Speaker 1: but he gets more targets and he's a bigger threat 1756 01:24:39,080 --> 01:24:43,120 Speaker 1: after the catch and Xavier Worthy exactly is feared. He 1757 01:24:43,240 --> 01:24:47,080 Speaker 1: is all or nothing downfield bomb guy, and that's it. 1758 01:24:47,600 --> 01:24:50,439 Speaker 1: Over the past month he has done. He has been 1759 01:24:50,960 --> 01:24:53,960 Speaker 1: a hit or missplayer, and the Raiders have been a 1760 01:24:54,080 --> 01:24:56,880 Speaker 1: much improved pass defense. They've allowed just one wide receiver 1761 01:24:56,960 --> 01:24:59,639 Speaker 1: score in a month and no wide receivers top seventy 1762 01:24:59,680 --> 01:25:05,120 Speaker 1: two yards. So C grades Watson, Hardman, Worthy, DeAndre Hopkins. 1763 01:25:05,120 --> 01:25:07,599 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I think he only gets about fifteen routes 1764 01:25:07,640 --> 01:25:09,920 Speaker 1: in this game, so he is on the bench for 1765 01:25:09,960 --> 01:25:13,679 Speaker 1: me in this one. Let's go to the Las Vegas side. 1766 01:25:13,960 --> 01:25:16,599 Speaker 1: I've only got one starting grade and that's Brock Bowers. 1767 01:25:16,840 --> 01:25:19,160 Speaker 1: The Chiefs are the worst tight end defense in the league, 1768 01:25:19,439 --> 01:25:23,040 Speaker 1: including allowing George Kittle ninety two yards last week. They're 1769 01:25:23,080 --> 01:25:25,479 Speaker 1: giving up the most yards and the most receptions to 1770 01:25:25,479 --> 01:25:29,920 Speaker 1: the position. Bowers has eight, nine and ten receptions the 1771 01:25:30,000 --> 01:25:35,439 Speaker 1: last three weeks. Since the DeVante Adams hamstring injury, Bowers 1772 01:25:35,439 --> 01:25:37,800 Speaker 1: getting even more usage. He is an A grade in 1773 01:25:37,840 --> 01:25:40,120 Speaker 1: this one, and everybody else is on the bench in 1774 01:25:40,160 --> 01:25:43,320 Speaker 1: a very tough matchup. Gardner Minshew is your starting quarterback. 1775 01:25:43,320 --> 01:25:45,880 Speaker 1: Obviously you're not going to start him. Alexander Madison has 1776 01:25:45,960 --> 01:25:49,240 Speaker 1: taken over the running bad lead running back role from Zamirwait. 1777 01:25:49,360 --> 01:25:53,080 Speaker 1: Completely confirmed last week when Zumir White was healthy and 1778 01:25:53,160 --> 01:25:56,880 Speaker 1: had four carries in the game. The Kansas City run 1779 01:25:56,920 --> 01:25:59,840 Speaker 1: defense is awesome and only on volume alone can you 1780 01:26:00,120 --> 01:26:03,640 Speaker 1: consider Alexander Madison here. Kansas City ranks number one in 1781 01:26:03,720 --> 01:26:07,160 Speaker 1: Fantasy points allowed to runners, They're third in yards per carry, 1782 01:26:07,160 --> 01:26:09,799 Speaker 1: fifth in yards after contact, and don't runners top fifty 1783 01:26:09,800 --> 01:26:15,240 Speaker 1: three yards against Kansas City. Alexander Madison is firmly on 1784 01:26:15,280 --> 01:26:20,120 Speaker 1: your bench. Reminder.
