29
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 1: Take a chance on me, three hot questions, premature speculation,

30
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 1: lightning round at the end, and of course all of

31
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 1: the matchups and we dive right into the first of them.

32
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 1: Dallas taking on Atlanta. Brian Dak Prescott has been dramatically

33
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 1: improved over the last month, especially from a fantasy standpoint,

34
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: and now he gets maybe his easiest matchup of the year. Yeah,

35
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:24,679
Speaker 1: multiple touchdown passes and three of his last six for

36
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 1: DAC and uh Samari Cooper thing is actually kind of

37
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,520
Speaker 1: working out for Dallas and yeah, a great matchup for Dock.

38
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 1: Like you said, since week two. Atlanta has allowed at

39
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 1: least three passing touchdowns in six of eight games. Uh.

40
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,639
Speaker 1: Eli and Alex Smith were the only two that failed

41
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 1: to record a hat trick. And I'll slow you down

42
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 1: on that. Yeah, we got hat tricks three touchdowns in

43
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 1: all but two games. So Dack's in a very good spot.

44
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,360
Speaker 1: Also has a rushing touchdown and three of his last

45
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 1: four games. UH. And Atlanta is allowing more than twenty

46
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,079
Speaker 1: rushing yards pretty game to quarterbacks. That's half a passing

47
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:58,920
Speaker 1: touchdown right there at least, So Dak easy B borderline

48
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 1: A grade this week potential shootout over his past catchers.

49
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: And Mark Cooper just mentioned him h. Atlanta has allowed

50
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 1: at least one wide receiver touchdown in eight straight games,

51
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 1: multiple wide receiver touchdowns and half of those games. Uh.

52
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,680
Speaker 1: Cooper has eighteen targets so far in two games with Dallas,

53
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 1: so they're using him plenty. So he's a safe B

54
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:17,240
Speaker 1: in this game as well. I don't think i'd ever

55
00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 1: see a Mark Cooper is a safe B, but I

56
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:22,919
Speaker 1: just did it is early. Uh. The other wide receivers though,

57
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 1: called basilely Michael Gallup, Alan Hearns. UH. You would think

58
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 1: there'd be enough to go around for one of these guys,

59
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,120
Speaker 1: but I have no idea who would be since Cooper

60
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 1: was acquired. Here's the target total in the two games

61
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 1: for these other guys. Gallop twelve, Beasley five, Perns three.

62
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 1: Zeac has more targets than all those guys, so Gallup

63
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 1: would be the one, but they're all on the bench

64
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 1: for me Ei, they're all dart throws and as is,

65
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 1: Jeff Swain made his return last week, played an eight

66
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 1: percent in the snaps. Not a great matchup for tight ends.

67
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 1: And of course Zeke gets an a rolled up a

68
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty plus and two touchdowns against a tough

69
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 1: Philly run d last week. Uh, if you've been playing

70
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 1: fantasy football the last few years, Atlanta is not a

71
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 1: tough rundy on the ground or through the air, so

72
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 1: particularly through the air, particularly through the air. All World

73
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 1: middle linebacker Dion Jones is back for Atlanta, which does matter,

74
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 1: but Zeke still in a in a smash spot in

75
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:17,359
Speaker 1: this game over to the Falcons. Julio and in a

76
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 1: easy a fastest player to ten thousand receiving yards in

77
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: NFL history passed Megatron last week. Pretty impressive. Dallas not

78
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 1: a great matchup for wide receivers. But the last comparable

79
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,559
Speaker 1: wide out to face UH the Cowboys was DeAndre Hopkins,

80
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 1: who caught nine passes fred fifty one yards. So you're

81
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,880
Speaker 1: starting Julio, barely starting Calvin Ridley and this one has

82
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:37,840
Speaker 1: been held under fifty yards and four of his last

83
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 1: five games and has just one touchdown during that span.

84
00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 1: But this feels like a shootout, so Ridley gets a

85
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 1: soft seed for me and this one even though he's

86
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,760
Speaker 1: kind of a boom robust option and uh mohammas, and

87
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 1: New has been hammered by a head injury, has been

88
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 1: playing through it. Saw a healthy eight targets last week,

89
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 1: caught six of them, but he's failed to top fifty

90
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 1: yards for the fourth straight game, hasn't scored in three

91
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 1: straight and again Dallas really controls the clock well, not

92
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 1: a ton of volume expected, but I'll give him a

93
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,600
Speaker 1: soft seed two. But they're both Darth throws in my mind.

94
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 1: Austin Hooper, a little less of Darth throw, he'll get

95
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,479
Speaker 1: a b Shawn Lee out for Dallas. That's huge. And

96
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: zach Ertz has went off for fourteen catches a hundred

97
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,279
Speaker 1: forty five yards and two touch How about that Hooper

98
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 1: is no arts but uh, but Hooper has been shockingly

99
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 1: competent this year. Absolutely leads the land and red zone

100
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 1: targets and it's been targeted ten plus times in three

101
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,120
Speaker 1: of his last five games. So he's in a great spot.

102
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,599
Speaker 1: And Matt Ryan easy and I can get into that

103
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 1: one has been absolutely amazing this year. I don't expect

104
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 1: him to be this good. Don't think anyone really did

105
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,720
Speaker 1: coming off of down here last year. And then Tvin Coleman,

106
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:38,040
Speaker 1: can I go be minus her charge? He heeds a minus?

107
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 1: Not at all? Yeah, you allow it. Dallas allowed him

108
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 1: just three and a half yards per carry and opposing

109
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,839
Speaker 1: running backs have total just six touchdowns in nine games.

110
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,600
Speaker 1: But again, Shawn Lee is out. That is huge for Coleman.

111
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 1: And he has really distanced himself from Edo Smith touch wise.

112
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 1: So the volume play is there. So he's a safe

113
00:05:56,080 --> 00:06:01,480
Speaker 1: RV two play. We'll not safe base I save, Okay,

114
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 1: Carolina takes on Detroit Matt Um Cam Newton. Do you

115
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 1: want two touchdown passes? He's your guy? You want to

116
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 1: think more than two touchdown passes or less than two

117
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 1: touchdown passes. He's not your guy? Is he like the

118
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,480
Speaker 1: Leroy Horde of quarterbacks. Yeah, really is. If you need

119
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,680
Speaker 1: three touchdown passes, he'll get you two. You need one,

120
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 1: he'll get you two. Okay, perfect. I still got him

121
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: as an A grade this week. Detroit has allowed multiple

122
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,839
Speaker 1: passing scores in five of the last six. So Cam

123
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 1: Newton is gonna get too, I would I would say, right, yeah,

124
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,480
Speaker 1: including and they also gave up a rushing touchdown to

125
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: Mitch Trubisky last week, so that bodes well for Cam's

126
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 1: rushing ability. Christian McCaffrey also in A The Lions are

127
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 1: allowing a hundred and sixty five total yards per game

128
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:46,280
Speaker 1: to the running back position. That all goes to McCaffrey.

129
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,280
Speaker 1: Greg Olsen, I'm giving a B grade two as well. Uh.

130
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 1: Lions defense has allowed fifty plus yards or a score

131
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 1: two opponents tight ends in seven of the last eight games.

132
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 1: And Olson, I mean, frankly, he's the top five tight

133
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: end in the league right now, just because we're out

134
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 1: of tighten it's he's by defaulty I'm number six, you are, Yeah,

135
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 1: it's you know, the the in the worst year in

136
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 1: the history of me, in the twenty five years I've

137
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 1: been in this business, I've never seen any one position

138
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 1: is devastated as the tight end position this year from

139
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 1: a talented injury standpoint, and it always seems to get worse.

140
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,000
Speaker 1: It seems like every other week we lose another guy.

141
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 1: So because of that, I think next year it's more

142
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 1: than feasible that we see maybe Earth's and Kelsey as

143
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 1: first round picks. Yeah. I think, oh, it's not even close.

144
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 1: He might be in that. He might be in that conversation,

145
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 1: you know, and imagine, Well, doesn't Grons even it doesn't

146
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 1: even matter. Even if you don't, I don't think you'll

147
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 1: be there next year. But even if he did, who

148
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 1: how can you rely on Gronk at this point? You

149
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 1: can't know? Uh, you can't really rely on the Carolina

150
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 1: receivers either. In the last three weeks, no Carolina wide

151
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 1: receiver has top six targets in a game. Only one

152
00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:00,160
Speaker 1: has topped forty four yards. And last week Fun just

153
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 1: d J. Moore, Curtis Samuel, and jerryus Right all had

154
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 1: either three or four catches, none of them scored, and

155
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 1: nobody topped thirty two yards. It's just an absolute mess

156
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 1: in the wide receiver position there. Over to the Lions side,

157
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 1: carry On Johnson. I'm only giving a C grade to

158
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 1: this week. Over their last five games, the Panthers are

159
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 1: only yielding total yards per game to the running back position,

160
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 1: that second fewest in the league over that span. Now,

161
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 1: the bright spot is that carry On has had as

162
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 1: many catches as theoretic did last week, and he scored

163
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 1: a touchdown via the passing games, so he's getting closer

164
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 1: to Bell Cow status than he ever has been. Matthew Stafford,

165
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,559
Speaker 1: he's getting a B grade. Something has been exposed in

166
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: the Carolina defense in the past two games, as they

167
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:49,320
Speaker 1: have allowed quarterbacks to throw touchdown passes nine times, nine times,

168
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:53,800
Speaker 1: nine times. That's four and five touchdown passes in each

169
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 1: of the last two weeks against Carolina. Nicely, Marvin Jones

170
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 1: he's on the bench. He's out with a knee injury

171
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 1: this week. That means Kenny Golladay, he's really the only

172
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 1: wide receiver there. He gets a B grade. There's no

173
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 1: one left besides him and the other Jones, t J. Jones.

174
00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 1: After Marvin Jones went down with an injury last week,

175
00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:14,160
Speaker 1: Golliday was targeted eight times in the final quarter of

176
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 1: the game, so he's on pace for thirty two targets

177
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 1: this week. No, No, eight times eight times. Shot it right. Sorry,

178
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 1: Now here's the problem was. You know, if there gets

179
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,560
Speaker 1: to be a point where if you don't have enough

180
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:31,560
Speaker 1: talent left at any position, in this case the receiver position,

181
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 1: the defense just pounds that guy. We saw with Adam

182
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,760
Speaker 1: Feeling when Stephan Diggs was out and the Viking's three

183
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 1: wide looked like the Kwan treadwell Aldrick Robinson on the

184
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 1: outside and and then Feeling on the inside and became

185
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 1: really easy to take Feeling out of the game plan.

186
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:47,920
Speaker 1: And I worry that's what's gonna happen to Golliday here. Well,

187
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 1: Riddick is essentially there's a lot receiver Now I think

188
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:52,319
Speaker 1: I think there is a lot of Riddick play for this,

189
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 1: and I think Riddick and uh and Johnson are going

190
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 1: to get a ton of passes. You know, there's one

191
00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 1: more guy that I want to mention who's kind of

192
00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,560
Speaker 1: a desperation. See start maybe a bonus take a chance

193
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 1: and makes me a tight end. But it is it's

194
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 1: Michael Roberts. He gets a C grade. Uh, you could

195
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 1: do worse than Roberts. He should see some opportunity with

196
00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 1: Marvin Jones out and Carolina has allowed the most receptions,

197
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 1: second most yards, and the most touchdowns to opposing tight

198
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,680
Speaker 1: ends this season. So Michael Roberts kind of in a

199
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:21,840
Speaker 1: good spot. If you're in the tight end waste land.

200
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:25,439
Speaker 1: He's a zombie. You could pick up, double check his status.

201
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 1: Believe he will play, but um has been injured. He

202
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 1: might have missed last week's game or got knocked out

203
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 1: last week. It's Luke one L Wilson E L Wilson,

204
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 1: my bed l l u k e no Wilson. Wouldn't

205
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,959
Speaker 1: that be weird? It's like a Llama Luke. This is

206
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,680
Speaker 1: why I'm at with one T, just to alleviate all

207
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 1: this stuff. Oh yeah, that doesn't cause any problems for anybody.

208
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 1: That's all it does is alleviate problems. Well, I don't

209
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:56,840
Speaker 1: know why you're Paul with two els. News to me,

210
00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 1: but I'll run with that. Knowing Matt's a long One

211
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 1: T is a norm to me. Now when I did it,

212
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 1: I'm turning people around. I know to one teas. You're

213
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 1: not the only one, do you? Why even you introduced

214
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 1: me to this other one team? We need to like

215
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 1: get a one TA convention. You should have a one

216
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:18,240
Speaker 1: tea convention. Houston takes on Washington, and I'll note once

217
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 1: again like I did last week, Washington's offensive line of disaster,

218
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,160
Speaker 1: star left tackle Trent Williams is going to miss another

219
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:27,520
Speaker 1: game with thumb injuries. Uh and both of their guards

220
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: are on i R for the year. So you know

221
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 1: that does limit I think the upside of what Washington

222
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 1: can do here, and it's why Adrian Peterson's just a

223
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 1: C grade. Texans have limited opposing teams to less than

224
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,560
Speaker 1: one hundred rushing yards in four of the past six games.

225
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:45,000
Speaker 1: They're a good run defense. Only run one runner has

226
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,720
Speaker 1: hit twenty carries against the Texans this season. And when

227
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,840
Speaker 1: Adrian doesn't get to twenty carries, when he has nineteen

228
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 1: or fewer carries, here's your average game. Fifty four yards,

229
00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 1: zero point three touchdowns. That's it. And that's why Adrian

230
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 1: is just to SEE grade. The only other startable player

231
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:07,960
Speaker 1: for the Redskins is Jordan Reid. He posted a mediocre

232
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 1: fifty one yards in a primo matchup against the second

233
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 1: worst defense against tight ends last week in Tampa. We

234
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 1: talked about it last week. Is sort of a if

235
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 1: not when, if not then when and he still didn't

236
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:23,720
Speaker 1: do much matchup here is not is not any better

237
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 1: than that, that's for sure. Even more depressing that fifty

238
00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 1: one yards last week. That's his high water mark for

239
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 1: the last six games. Houston hasn't faced a team that

240
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 1: really utilizes the tight end in five straight games, and

241
00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,440
Speaker 1: despite that, the Texans still at Jeff Hireman go for

242
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 1: ten catches in their last week's game. So there's a

243
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:42,839
Speaker 1: glimmer I hope for Jordan Read. Normally he'd be on

244
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 1: the bench, but I've got to see grade just because

245
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,640
Speaker 1: at the position you pretty much have to start him.

246
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 1: You mean top ten and tighten option, Jeff, Yes, that's right,

247
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:55,680
Speaker 1: it is. At this point, it is ridiculous. Everybody else

248
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 1: is on the bench, including the rest of the passing offense. Uh,

249
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 1: there's almost no talent at wide received where Alex Smith

250
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 1: has in top of one touchdown in a month, and

251
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:06,040
Speaker 1: that was against far easier defenses like Tampa in Atlanta,

252
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:10,560
Speaker 1: and oddly enough, get this statistical oddity, Alex Smith has

253
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:14,960
Speaker 1: thrown for exactly one hundred seventy eight yards in three

254
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 1: of his last four games. So let's go with a

255
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: hundred seventy eight yards. By the way, one seventy eight

256
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 1: yards sucks. That's a terrible number for a quarterback to

257
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 1: hit once a year, let alone three times in one month.

258
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 1: On the Houston side of the ball, it's a much

259
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 1: more rosy outlook. Deshaun Watson gets an A grade from me.

260
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:37,680
Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien. I think was guarding him for the last

261
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,319
Speaker 1: month because he had all these chests and rib injuries

262
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 1: and he was only throwing four twenty and twenty four

263
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:49,080
Speaker 1: pass attempts. That's it. But now that he's healthy, after

264
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 1: the out of the bye week, I think I think

265
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,200
Speaker 1: Watson stretches out with a lot more throws here close

266
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: to what Washington normally sees. Thirty eight is how many

267
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 1: passes Washington typically sees, and that kind of lack a

268
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,160
Speaker 1: very good game for him. In Deshaun Watson's games with

269
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 1: thirty eight or more attempts, he averages three hundred seventy

270
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 1: eight passing yards and two touchdowns. And that's why Deshaun

271
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:16,719
Speaker 1: Watson is a rock solid A for your fantasy team.

272
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 1: I like his receivers as you can imagine. And it

273
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 1: goes without saying DeAndre Hopkins is an obvious A. Uh,

274
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,280
Speaker 1: but I'll note here Quintin Dunbar, the best coverage cornerback

275
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 1: for Washington, may not play in this game, and all

276
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,200
Speaker 1: the more reason to like Hopkins. I also like to

277
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 1: Marry's Thomas, though with a B grade uh he goes

278
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 1: up predominantly against Josh Norman, super inconsistent, and the kinds

279
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 1: of guys that he struggles with are bigger, physical receivers

280
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 1: Odell Beckham, Julio Jones, hundred yard games primarily on Josh Norman.

281
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:48,560
Speaker 1: I think the physical Thomas has got a nice opportunity

282
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:51,880
Speaker 1: against him, but we're not done with the passing game yet.

283
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 1: Kiki Cutie limited with a hamstring injury and has a

284
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 1: chance of playing if he does go. Working out of

285
00:14:56,960 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 1: the slot, he draws inconsistent Redskins cornerback Fabian more Row.

286
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:03,640
Speaker 1: Moreau gave up one hundred yards last week in his

287
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 1: coverage and the week before that allowed to touchdown, So

288
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 1: if Kiki Qti goes you could start him in this game. Lastly,

289
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:13,720
Speaker 1: Lamar Miller C grade. Washington is a good run defense

290
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:17,280
Speaker 1: and sometimes an awesome run defense. No runners topped eighty

291
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:20,440
Speaker 1: yards all year, and they've only given up one rushing touchdown.

292
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 1: In the last month of games of late, the Redskins

293
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 1: have been a bit more yielding, giving up a healthy

294
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 1: four point seven yards per carry over the last three games.

295
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 1: Prior to that, they're giving up just three point nine.

296
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 1: So they are they've been a little bit easier. And

297
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 1: that's the only reason Lamar Miller is not on the

298
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 1: bench is that the Redskins have been a little easier lately.

299
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:44,480
Speaker 1: When we come back, take a chance on me. Nine

300
00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:46,640
Speaker 1: players not normally in your starting lineup will tell you

301
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:48,080
Speaker 1: who they are and who you can start when we

302
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:53,640
Speaker 1: come back. This is Fantasy green Bill Premium on the van.

303
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 1: This sounds pretty innocuous right now. I could go for

304
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 1: I could do this. I feel like I'm riding a

305
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:20,400
Speaker 1: horse through a meadow with your long locks flowing, my

306
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 1: golden locks, the locks, yes, flowing behind you. Just take chance.

307
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 1: I mean, nine players not normally in your starting line

308
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 1: at Many of these guys are on the waiver wire.

309
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 1: One of mine is definitely on the waiver wire. One

310
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:33,520
Speaker 1: and a half mine are on the waiver wire. I

311
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 1: got a couple that are good. All right, go ahead,

312
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 1: let's see here. You got starting at the quarterback position, Brian,

313
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 1: This guy is probably in the waiver wire. It's Eli

314
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 1: Manning in his last stand at home against the Bucks,

315
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 1: because if he doesn't call are you calling this his

316
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 1: last game? It's gonna be if he doesn't come through,

317
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 1: it's going to be uh loud that Kyle, what the time?

318
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 1: If Eli can't come through against the Bucks in Tampa

319
00:16:56,600 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 1: Bay road games, UH teams are averaging seventy combined points

320
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 1: in the five road games the Bucks have played so far,

321
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:06,920
Speaker 1: Opposing quarterbacks have totaled sixteen touchdowns. That's more than three

322
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 1: per game. And this is, like I said, this is

323
00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 1: basically it for Eli. All his weapons are healthy, so

324
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 1: let's go old man. Yea, I feel like I gotta

325
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,200
Speaker 1: unbuttoned like a couple of buttons on my shirt because

326
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 1: of the horse riding. Yeah, it's not quite as disco

327
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:24,479
Speaker 1: as that, though. This is more like musical star Stream.

328
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:26,680
Speaker 1: It's from the eighties. I'm just thinking to get get

329
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:31,119
Speaker 1: the pecks out there, like Fabio, Like, honestly, all, wow,

330
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 1: maybe your chest hair is flowing in the wind in

331
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,000
Speaker 1: this scenario. Yeah, I like how we we went with

332
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 1: singular chest hair to Matt has pecks. There's a unicorn

333
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:44,480
Speaker 1: in the corner right exactly with Matt's pecks. Uh. Speaking

334
00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:48,640
Speaker 1: of unicorns, I got big game Blake Bortles. Wow, yeah,

335
00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,960
Speaker 1: that is like finding unicorn. I can find one of

336
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 1: Blake portals. No, no, but Blake Bortles has played to

337
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:01,439
Speaker 1: count them too, really good teams this year. That was

338
00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,600
Speaker 1: Kansas City and that was New England. And in those

339
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,600
Speaker 1: two games he put up four yards in a touchdown

340
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 1: and three seventy seven and four touchdowns respectively. And the

341
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:13,920
Speaker 1: Steelers are a really good team as well, and the

342
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,320
Speaker 1: Jags have a history with them. It will be emotional.

343
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,959
Speaker 1: The Steelers have allowed multiple touchdowns and three of their

344
00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,680
Speaker 1: last four games. But let's not talk about what Bortles

345
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:25,399
Speaker 1: did against the Steelers last year because it was hot

346
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:30,200
Speaker 1: guard bort lige yards in his first meeting to fourteen

347
00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,040
Speaker 1: and one in the second meeting, and there was a

348
00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:35,119
Speaker 1: playoff win. That was a playoff win. They were both wins,

349
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:38,440
Speaker 1: both big wins. I don't know he's gonna He's gonna

350
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:41,639
Speaker 1: do great, it's gonna I've got Lamar Jackson, you're presumed

351
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:45,040
Speaker 1: but yet unannounced starter for the Ravens. We're gonna go

352
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:48,159
Speaker 1: with Lamar Jackson here. Um, this is he goes up

353
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,719
Speaker 1: against Carolina. The only other rushing quarterback, I'm sorry, goes

354
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:54,160
Speaker 1: up against Cincinnati, and that's key to this. The only

355
00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:57,919
Speaker 1: other rushing quarterback to face the Bengals, Cam Newton, scored

356
00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:02,720
Speaker 1: twice on the ground, and even if shockingly Lamar Jackson's

357
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,640
Speaker 1: legs don't produce a much of fantasy points, his arms

358
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:09,439
Speaker 1: certainly can. Cincinnati's devolved into the worst past defense in

359
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 1: the league. Over the past five games. The Bengals rank

360
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,840
Speaker 1: last or second to last in all of these passing categories.

361
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:22,960
Speaker 1: Completions allowed, passing yards allowed, passing touchdowns allowed. Joe Flacco

362
00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 1: in the earlier matchup for Baltimore against Cincinnati a season

363
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:30,280
Speaker 1: high three hundred seventy six yards in the earlier matchup

364
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. Now, if Lamar Jackson doesn't go, I've got

365
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,800
Speaker 1: a provisional for you, a little bit like golf. I

366
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 1: have a provisional shot justin no, Marcus Mariota is my provisional.

367
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:49,200
Speaker 1: Take a chance, do it, Robert I would. I would

368
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 1: literally go any Baltimore quarter quarterback, any of them, whichever

369
00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 1: one starts, it doesn't matter. You really can go RG three.

370
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 1: And by the way, what are these guys cost in

371
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 1: and ball. What does Lamar Jackson costs? Right, there's gotta

372
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,880
Speaker 1: be dirt cheap. RG three will be below five. Yeah,

373
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:12,119
Speaker 1: Lamar's I think, Lamar Yeah, I mean to me, that

374
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:15,719
Speaker 1: is a cinch. If you're playing the fan Ball, the

375
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:19,200
Speaker 1: fan Ball fifteen thousand dollars signature contest, Uh the take

376
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 1: take me to charge the contest. You can go to

377
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,159
Speaker 1: family dot com Slash Radio. All right, let's go to

378
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,119
Speaker 1: the running back position. Brian I got Chase Edmonds of

379
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:29,159
Speaker 1: the Cardinals at home against Oakland. Don't fret, DJ owners,

380
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:31,440
Speaker 1: He's okay and we'll play. But there there should be

381
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:33,119
Speaker 1: a lot to go around in this game. The Raiders

382
00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:36,160
Speaker 1: are allowing one hundred and seventy combo yards per game

383
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,959
Speaker 1: to opposing running back gang. That's a lot that's passing numbers.

384
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,199
Speaker 1: They're giving up on the ground, and their collective spirit

385
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:44,360
Speaker 1: is more broken by each word that Gruden utters. They

386
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:46,320
Speaker 1: just hate him more and want this season to be over.

387
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 1: They had a really good fake punt last week. There

388
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,280
Speaker 1: you go. That was That's like the one highlight. That's

389
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,360
Speaker 1: the highlight real for the whole season over the last

390
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:57,560
Speaker 1: five games. Bosses backup running backs at average third team

391
00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 1: plus touches against the Raiders, who have scored point totals

392
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 1: of six three somehow three ten in the last five.

393
00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:06,640
Speaker 1: There was gonna garbage time here and Edmonds is gonna

394
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,760
Speaker 1: get some all right, I've got spencer ware. And the

395
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 1: thought process here is this game is going Is that

396
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:17,640
Speaker 1: Is that the same spencer where that I used last week? Why? Yes?

397
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 1: It is? Wow? How about that? That's pretty good? Um,

398
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:25,879
Speaker 1: so the thought processes the game is gonna be so

399
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 1: high scoring that you want to get every piece of

400
00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,520
Speaker 1: it that you can. And secondary backs have gotten it

401
00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:33,359
Speaker 1: done against the Rams. Mike Davis had fifty eight yards

402
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:36,199
Speaker 1: last week, Ingram only at thirty six total yards in

403
00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 1: that game, but Jamal Williams scored against them in the

404
00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 1: previous week. Raheem must Yet had fifty nine yards the

405
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:45,399
Speaker 1: week before that, and then Mike Davis again had sixty

406
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:47,200
Speaker 1: eight in a touchdown the week before that. All the

407
00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 1: secondary backs, So I think you can make a case

408
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,399
Speaker 1: of a shot Penny was really the secondary back last

409
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,439
Speaker 1: week because Davis started the game, but Penny end up

410
00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 1: rolling up the hundred yards. Yeah, Penny ended up getting

411
00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:59,160
Speaker 1: more carries. So I Dana Davis is the secondary back

412
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 1: all right? Either way? Yeah, I'm going Doug Martin. I

413
00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:05,440
Speaker 1: know he's rostered everywhere and he's but why would you

414
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:07,720
Speaker 1: have ever wanted to start him before? Now? Cardinals ranked

415
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 1: thirty feet and rushing yards allowed, thirty second in rushing

416
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,919
Speaker 1: touchdowns allowed, And for once, volume will not be a

417
00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:17,440
Speaker 1: problem for Doug Martin because Arizona sees the most total

418
00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:21,040
Speaker 1: rushes by a mile, thirty two per game. If Doug

419
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:24,640
Speaker 1: Martin is gonna get most of thirty two rushes, I'm interested. Now.

420
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:28,359
Speaker 1: Since Marshawn Lynch's injury, Martin has had double digit touches

421
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:30,400
Speaker 1: in every game. He's averaged more than four yards per

422
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:33,439
Speaker 1: carrying every game. And just for once, the game script

423
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:35,760
Speaker 1: is not gonna have the Raiders down by twenty at

424
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:38,840
Speaker 1: halftime because the Cardinals are the lowest scoring team in

425
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 1: the NFL. So it all is coming together for Doug

426
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:46,640
Speaker 1: Martin in this matchup. Let's go to the wide receiver position.

427
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:49,439
Speaker 1: We're gonna We're gonna stay with the slop fest in

428
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,639
Speaker 1: Arizona and go with Seth Roberts of the Raiders. No,

429
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,920
Speaker 1: no Jordy Nelson, no Mark Tavis. Bryant for Oakland this week.

430
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:58,360
Speaker 1: Some people will say Brandon the Fells the guy then,

431
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 1: But I still worry about Pat p dusting off his

432
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,399
Speaker 1: old shadow cleats and following with Fell around because he's

433
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 1: gonna be option really in the passing game. So it's

434
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:08,320
Speaker 1: Seth Roberts. We should see plenty of run in this game.

435
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,119
Speaker 1: At first glance, it appears to be a tough matchup

436
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 1: for Whiteouts on paper, as Arizona has only allowed seven

437
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 1: touchdowns to wide receivers. But all those seven wide receiver

438
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 1: touchdowns have come up with the last five weeks, and

439
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 1: five of those seven went to secondary indoor slot receivers,

440
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 1: and Arizona will be without standing starting standout safety Buddha

441
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:27,440
Speaker 1: Baker in this one. So Seth Roberts in line for

442
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 1: a good game. Buddha Baker is their slot, is their

443
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:32,400
Speaker 1: slot cornerback, and Seth Roberts generally runs out of the slot.

444
00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:35,680
Speaker 1: I like it. Okay, well it's deep. I'll say that

445
00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 1: for it. D W s s let's go deeper. And

446
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 1: this one I gotta give credit is courtesy of Scott Fish.

447
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 1: He he found some crazy stats on this guy. Cameron Batson.

448
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:51,919
Speaker 1: Cameron Batson you say, yeah, he's the new slot wide

449
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:56,640
Speaker 1: receiver for the Tennessee Titans. He's come from virtually nowhere

450
00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 1: to getting forty three and fifty of the slot snaps

451
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,040
Speaker 1: in the last two weeks. And the Cults have struggled

452
00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 1: mightily against slot wide receivers, allowing an average of fifteen

453
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 1: Fantasy points per game to slot wide receivers and PPR leagues.

454
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:12,520
Speaker 1: And they've allowed some no names to have good days,

455
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 1: to Seth Roberts, Germaine, Curse, Kiki Cutie, all those guys

456
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:19,000
Speaker 1: have gotten it done against the cult. So from the slot,

457
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,919
Speaker 1: those are all slot receiver. Cameron Batson is he? Is

458
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:25,200
Speaker 1: he the spawn of Batman and bet Girl? Yeah, he's

459
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,359
Speaker 1: definitely bat Son, bat Son bat girls of legal age. Right,

460
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,520
Speaker 1: that's a good point. It's not Batwoman. I don't know.

461
00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:35,880
Speaker 1: Backgirl might not be. I think didn't. Let's not don't

462
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:43,360
Speaker 1: play back she was definitely Okay, let's just well, let's

463
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 1: not knock up Backgirl. Okay, on this show, it's not

464
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 1: too much trouble. Well, maybe it's just Batman and Vicky Vale.

465
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:55,080
Speaker 1: How about that. My wide receiver is Michael Crabtree. I

466
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,560
Speaker 1: don't care if it's Lamar Jackson at quarterback. I don't

467
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:01,119
Speaker 1: care if it's RG three quarterback. I don't care if

468
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:05,399
Speaker 1: it's Joe Flacco on a shattered hip. Anybody can pass.

469
00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:09,480
Speaker 1: Against Cincinnati, they ranked thirty first and receptions allowed to

470
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:12,159
Speaker 1: wide receivers. They ranked thirty second in yards allowed to

471
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:16,480
Speaker 1: wide receivers, thirty one in receiving touchdowns to wide receivers.

472
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,240
Speaker 1: That's over the last three weeks. This includes five scores

473
00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:23,879
Speaker 1: to receivers over the last three weeks. Michael Crabtree draws

474
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:26,359
Speaker 1: coverage from William Jackson, who allowed a touchdown, was a

475
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:28,960
Speaker 1: lot of touchdown in his coverage and back to back games.

476
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:34,119
Speaker 1: Michael Crabtree since dropped in virtually all leagues. All right,

477
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:36,840
Speaker 1: let's see we can sneak in, Actually we can sneak

478
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:38,959
Speaker 1: in one more matchup because we're very long winded, as

479
00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:44,439
Speaker 1: we talked about the genealogy of baton bats in bats

480
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,520
Speaker 1: in genealogy. But when we come back, we will tell

481
00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 1: you about Philadelphia at New Orleans, a scoring frenzy. But

482
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:57,119
Speaker 1: in particular, people want to know about Josh Adams running

483
00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 1: back Philadelphia. Do you start him here? Find out and

484
00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:05,920
Speaker 1: we come back for his hosts Northwestern on FM three

485
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 1: the Fan, the Greater Twin Cities Onto Deezers are proud

486
00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 1: supporters of Gopher Athletics. On I Heart Radio, It's Fantasy

487
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,479
Speaker 1: Football Weekly on the Fan. Fault Church and Brian Johnson

488
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 1: Matt Harrison with you getting you ready for week at

489
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:31,600
Speaker 1: number eleven, dive back into the matchups. Philadelphia takes on

490
00:26:31,640 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 1: New Orleans and Brian, I think people are pretty keen

491
00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:37,920
Speaker 1: on the idea of starting most of the passing elements

492
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 1: of the Eagles, and I will certainly touch on that.

493
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,080
Speaker 1: But Josh Adams is the guy that I'm getting a

494
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:43,919
Speaker 1: lot of questions about this week. What do you think

495
00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:47,440
Speaker 1: about his prospects in this matchup? Yeah, he's really done

496
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,720
Speaker 1: well with his touches thus far, and Doug Peterson says

497
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:52,439
Speaker 1: he'll see more carries moving forward. But I don't like

498
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:54,560
Speaker 1: him in this game. It seems like a trap running backs.

499
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,400
Speaker 1: That tough time against the stats is very like guys

500
00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 1: like Todd Gurley. We're talking tough time like eighty combo yards.

501
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:04,680
Speaker 1: He really did manage to score, but Clement and small

502
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 1: which is still a factor in this game. So I

503
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 1: got all three on the bench still, but certainly hold

504
00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 1: on to Adams. He's the one you want moving forward.

505
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:12,800
Speaker 1: Can you drop everybody else? I think you can drop

506
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,880
Speaker 1: everyone else, but hold on to Adams without a doubt. Uh. Well,

507
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:17,760
Speaker 1: let's go to the passing game for Philly, which has

508
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:19,800
Speaker 1: a much better spot than the running game, starting with

509
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 1: zach Ertz uh. Tough matchup on paper, The Saints have

510
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,239
Speaker 1: about just one touchdown to tight ends this season. Uh.

511
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 1: They also haven't allowed a tight end to top forty

512
00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:29,440
Speaker 1: eight yards since the opener. But they really haven't seen

513
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:32,000
Speaker 1: a ton of tight ends of Earth's ilk. There aren't

514
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 1: many out there. There's about one and a half out

515
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,560
Speaker 1: there other than Arts pretty much. So he's pretty much

516
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:40,200
Speaker 1: an auto a every week with this tight end landscape.

517
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 1: Alshon Jeffer, you're gonna give him a b uh. Last

518
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:45,160
Speaker 1: week was Golden Tate's first game with Philly, but Jeffrey

519
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:47,560
Speaker 1: still led all Eagle wide receivers and targets with eight.

520
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 1: That was half of the sixteen targets Earth saw, but

521
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:52,840
Speaker 1: still a healthy amount for him. In New Orleans has

522
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,280
Speaker 1: allowed six different wide receivers to tally at least sixty

523
00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,880
Speaker 1: five yards over the past three games, and primary boundary

524
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:01,199
Speaker 1: receivers have still fared le against marsha On Ladimar. As

525
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,440
Speaker 1: of late Brandon Cooks had six for one fourteen in

526
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:06,280
Speaker 1: a touchdown, Stefan Digs ten for one nineteen in a

527
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:09,240
Speaker 1: touch and John Brown had seven for a thirty four

528
00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:13,520
Speaker 1: in a tutdy. So alshon Jeffrey gets a B. Alright,

529
00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 1: I said touch too many times, so I have to

530
00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:18,320
Speaker 1: mix it up a little bit. Golden takes this is

531
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:19,920
Speaker 1: a tough one. I'm gonna give him a see just

532
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,600
Speaker 1: because it's gonna be a shootout. By the way, home

533
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:25,040
Speaker 1: games in New Orleans for New Orleans are averaging more

534
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,480
Speaker 1: than sixty seven total points, so take gets a c.

535
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:30,160
Speaker 1: Even only played about of the snaps, but they say

536
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,080
Speaker 1: it's that it's gonna go way out here. It has double,

537
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 1: if not triple. Uh. Tate should see a lot of

538
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,640
Speaker 1: Eli apple in the slot. Uh. Eli has allowed twenty

539
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:41,280
Speaker 1: one completions on twenty two targets in his past protection

540
00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 1: as a saint. So I'll give Tate a c uh

541
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 1: even though we don't really know how much usage you'll see,

542
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 1: and for that reason, and give Nelson a LAC two. UH.

543
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:51,280
Speaker 1: He's averaging nearly seven targets and five catches over the

544
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:54,320
Speaker 1: last three weeks, which gives him a somewhat safe PPR floor,

545
00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 1: But he hasn't scored since week two. And again, maybe

546
00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 1: Tate takes looks from him, Maybe Tate open things up

547
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 1: for him. But is gonna be a shootout, so he's

548
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:04,080
Speaker 1: in play as well with the Sea. Uh, Carson Wentz,

549
00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:06,360
Speaker 1: canna give him an a. I'm gonna take this verbatim

550
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:08,400
Speaker 1: from your ranking start, but I'm gonna change up one.

551
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:10,360
Speaker 1: That's always a very good idea. We're gonna change up

552
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 1: one word. See if you can pick out which one

553
00:29:12,040 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 1: it is. Keeping up with Drew Brees means passing the

554
00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 1: ball and the scenes I've seen at least thirty nine

555
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:18,600
Speaker 1: passes and five of the past six games. If Carson

556
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 1: Wentz is going to throw the ball three nine times,

557
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:24,000
Speaker 1: I love his prospects for explosive output. That Matt. That

558
00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 1: was a I put that in there. It's a little

559
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:27,600
Speaker 1: tribute to Matt. I don't think anybody catch that. And

560
00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:29,400
Speaker 1: in the two games in which he's throwing thirty nine

561
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,800
Speaker 1: plus times, Wentz has snuffed fifty four yards and two

562
00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 1: scores snuffed. Yeah, I'm going I'm getting tire of saying averaging,

563
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:39,200
Speaker 1: because when you're up to snuff, you're up to average,

564
00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:43,600
Speaker 1: so sometimes you look down to snuff. Yeah, I don't know, alright,

565
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 1: so we're snuffing snuffing. I well, you're not talking about

566
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 1: the peculiar up to snuff. I guess alright, alright, I'm

567
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:55,280
Speaker 1: not quite there yet. He for wentz uh. Speaking of

568
00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 1: A's album Kamara, Michael Thomas, Drew Brees a fancy fancies

569
00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,240
Speaker 1: for life or those guys. Uh. Jalen Mills still out

570
00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:04,080
Speaker 1: for Philly, by the way, So Michael Thomas is just

571
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 1: going to oh yeah, well, and Ronald Darby out for

572
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:11,520
Speaker 1: the year. It's uh, he's gonna have a monster day. Uh,

573
00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:14,240
Speaker 1: let's talk about the other guys. Mark Ingram just gonna

574
00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:16,520
Speaker 1: give him a c in this matchup was practically left

575
00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 1: for dead until his huge day in the blowout at

576
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 1: the Bengals last week, but tougher match up here. The

577
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:23,520
Speaker 1: Eagles allowed the second fetus rushing yards, but they have

578
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 1: allowed the ninth most receiving yards and running backs. Uh.

579
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:28,760
Speaker 1: This could be much more of a camary game usually are,

580
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:31,480
Speaker 1: but uh, Ingram should still see double digit carreas and

581
00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 1: has caught three passes in three or five games, so

582
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:35,640
Speaker 1: I'll give him a see here. Tray Kuan Smith on

583
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:38,479
Speaker 1: the bench. Zero targets last week, just seven total targets

584
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:40,800
Speaker 1: in the two games prior. Brandon Marshall on the bench

585
00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:42,680
Speaker 1: until we see what he can do. And I got

586
00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:47,600
Speaker 1: Ben wet At Wetson Watson, Ben Ben wet Ben Benson

587
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:50,640
Speaker 1: Watson's been went in the bed all season. Yeah, he

588
00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:53,640
Speaker 1: really has that. Yeah, And we were saying every tight

589
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:56,760
Speaker 1: end is viable except Ben Watson. Philly is top five

590
00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,040
Speaker 1: and the fewest allowed of everything to tight ends. So

591
00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:05,000
Speaker 1: he's on the bench. Next matchup, Pittsburgh taking on Jacksonville.

592
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:06,800
Speaker 1: Matt We've already talked about some of the players in

593
00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 1: this for Pittsburgh. This is an away game, so you

594
00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:14,440
Speaker 1: always worry about Ben Roethlisberger and Jacksonville gets back A J. Bouyer.

595
00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 1: I'll throw out my A J. Buoy a stat I've

596
00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:18,640
Speaker 1: been given out all week. Throw it at me. He

597
00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 1: missed two games and the Eagles gave up six the Jaguars, sorry,

598
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 1: thank you. The Jaguars gave up six wide receiver touchdowns.

599
00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:32,040
Speaker 1: It took the whole season up to those two games,

600
00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:36,200
Speaker 1: before they had given up six wide receiver touchdowns. Boullier

601
00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:38,600
Speaker 1: is that big of a difference, and it's another reason

602
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:42,040
Speaker 1: to be worried about Ben Roethlisberger. So you you already

603
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 1: kind of snuffed around. That's a way, a different way

604
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 1: to do it. Uh. The Ben Roethlisberger home road splits

605
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:51,960
Speaker 1: will get this. He's topped three hundred yards or throwing

606
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:58,000
Speaker 1: multiple touchdowns in seven straight road games, or multiple multiple

607
00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 1: touchdowns or three d yards. I'm street that I understand

608
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:04,800
Speaker 1: that that multiple is either is too and the three

609
00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,959
Speaker 1: hundred yards oftentimes comes with zero or one touchdown at

610
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 1: that It's not as bad as you think. No, it's

611
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:12,400
Speaker 1: pretty bad. No, it's it's it's actually not. He's just

612
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:15,200
Speaker 1: been that good at home. Oh, he's great at home.

613
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:17,720
Speaker 1: I still got him as a B. Like you said,

614
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:20,280
Speaker 1: a J. Bouyer was gone before. But they did give

615
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:23,719
Speaker 1: up two eighty five yards to Carson Wentz, two six

616
00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:26,280
Speaker 1: yards to Andrew Luck and three touchdowns to each of

617
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:29,360
Speaker 1: those guys. So I'm gonna give Roethlisberger a B. They

618
00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:32,160
Speaker 1: put up a lot of points in that game last year. Uh,

619
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 1: it was a fun game, and I think it's it's

620
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:35,680
Speaker 1: it's going to be more of it. I'm pretty sure

621
00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 1: funds and not in my scoring system. You know, it's

622
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:43,600
Speaker 1: a crazy yeah. Antonio Brown, I'm giving a B. Juju

623
00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:45,600
Speaker 1: Smith Schuster, I'm giving a C. On paper. This is

624
00:32:45,640 --> 00:32:48,560
Speaker 1: one of the toughest matchups for a wide receiver. Last year,

625
00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 1: in the two meetings with the Jags, Brown had ten

626
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:53,960
Speaker 1: catches for a hundred and fifty seven yards and seven

627
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,240
Speaker 1: catches for one thirty two and two touchdowns. Now Juju,

628
00:32:57,280 --> 00:33:00,080
Speaker 1: on the other hand, had four for fifty eight re

629
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,880
Speaker 1: for five and a touchdown in that playoff game. So

630
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:06,640
Speaker 1: I like Brown quite a bit better, but it's it's

631
00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:11,680
Speaker 1: still tough matchup, but Antonio Brown never goes uh. Jacksonville

632
00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:13,680
Speaker 1: is top three in the NFL and receptions, yards and

633
00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:16,600
Speaker 1: touchdowns allowed to wide receivers, though. Vance McDonald I'm giving

634
00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:18,720
Speaker 1: a B though. A few weeks back, I had a

635
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 1: Jags matchup and we talked about how good they were

636
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:22,960
Speaker 1: against tight ends, but they hadn't really faced any good

637
00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 1: ones as of yet. And then Travis Kelsey must have

638
00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:28,240
Speaker 1: heard that and exposed something because he went for a

639
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:30,920
Speaker 1: hundred yards in Week five, and then the Jags last

640
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 1: two weeks, four different tight ends have scored touchdowns against them,

641
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:39,320
Speaker 1: including including two for Eric Ebron. Well, it's because you've

642
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:42,080
Speaker 1: got Boollier and Ramsey on the outside, so you know,

643
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:45,120
Speaker 1: you peep your throw us find other you find other angles.

644
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:47,920
Speaker 1: They were good at tight ends before, they're not good

645
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:50,760
Speaker 1: against tight ends now. So James Conner I'm giving a

646
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:52,480
Speaker 1: B two as well. The Jags are top ten in

647
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 1: the league against running backs and basically every category, but

648
00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:59,440
Speaker 1: they've only shut down split back fields. They have trouble

649
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:01,480
Speaker 1: with bell cow. They faced four of them this year.

650
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:04,640
Speaker 1: They faced se kwan Zeke Lamar Miller who's a bell

651
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:07,400
Speaker 1: cow for what it's worth, and Kareem Hunt. Each of

652
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:10,120
Speaker 1: those players top ninety four yards and scored. So I

653
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:12,560
Speaker 1: think Connor that's that's kind of the low mark for

654
00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:15,640
Speaker 1: Connor this week. Over on the other side, Blake Borrows

655
00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 1: might take a chance on a quarterback Leonard four Net.

656
00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:20,400
Speaker 1: I'm giving a B grade to t j yelled in

657
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:23,520
Speaker 1: like an emergency D grade. Four Net bounced back in

658
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:27,960
Speaker 1: a big way last week, probably from uh most fantasy benches.

659
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 1: Actually he probably wasn't started. Had twenty nine touches, a

660
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:33,040
Speaker 1: hundred and nine total yards and two scores, one on

661
00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:35,480
Speaker 1: the ground one through the air. Both four net and

662
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:37,959
Speaker 1: yelled and each had five catches last week versus Indy.

663
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,919
Speaker 1: That's pretty good. Four Net of course killed Pittsburgh both

664
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,960
Speaker 1: times last year, had five touchdowns in the two games,

665
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:46,439
Speaker 1: eighty one yards and one one on nine and the other.

666
00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:49,279
Speaker 1: So he's snuffing two and a half touchdowns per game. Uh.

667
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:51,400
Speaker 1: The Steelers have allowed of running back rushing score in

668
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:53,479
Speaker 1: four the last five too, so I like for net

669
00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:56,239
Speaker 1: here and then Dante Moncrief and d D. Westbrook, each

670
00:34:56,280 --> 00:34:59,280
Speaker 1: giving a C grade two. Moncrieff scored three times against

671
00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:01,840
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh and four career games he's had ninety eight yards

672
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,480
Speaker 1: and a score last week for nets return seems to

673
00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:06,600
Speaker 1: have helped him, and Westbrook led the team with ten

674
00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:09,400
Speaker 1: targets last week. The Steelers have allowed a hundred and

675
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:11,279
Speaker 1: seventy three yards per game for the to the wide

676
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:14,239
Speaker 1: receiver position. That's eleventh most in the league. So there's

677
00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:15,919
Speaker 1: gonna be something to go around here to the wide

678
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:18,759
Speaker 1: receiver position. And I think they're both kind of desperation

679
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:22,320
Speaker 1: see starts yeah best, Yeah. I don't like banking on

680
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:26,040
Speaker 1: the Jaguars passing game in any capacity does have to. Uh,

681
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:29,040
Speaker 1: Cincinnati takes on Baltimore. That's my matchup, and already talked

682
00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:30,920
Speaker 1: about some of the players in this one, but I

683
00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:33,200
Speaker 1: want to start first on the Cincinnati side, which we

684
00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,920
Speaker 1: haven't talked about as much. Where'd that page? You go? Oh? Yeah,

685
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:38,320
Speaker 1: it's there? We go right there. U. Joe Mixon is

686
00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:41,160
Speaker 1: gonna play through his knee injury. The Ravens don't have

687
00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:43,680
Speaker 1: the offensive firepower to put the Bengals into a deep

688
00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 1: hole early, I don't think so. Hopefully Mixing can remain

689
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:49,480
Speaker 1: involved throughout the game. The Ravens run defense that has

690
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:51,560
Speaker 1: been a lead all year, giving up just three point

691
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:54,960
Speaker 1: five yards per carry just three rushing touchdowns allowed all year,

692
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:58,560
Speaker 1: but they've been slightly more yielding the past three weeks

693
00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 1: after facing Alvin camer, Mark Ingram, Christian McCaffrey, and James Conner.

694
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,440
Speaker 1: Think about that run over the last three weeks for

695
00:36:05,480 --> 00:36:10,319
Speaker 1: the Ravens run defense, Kimeara, Ingram, McCaffrey, Connor brutal and

696
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:13,160
Speaker 1: here comes Joe Mixon. They gave up four scores to

697
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:15,239
Speaker 1: those guys, two on the ground, two through the air,

698
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:17,520
Speaker 1: and like all of them Mixing is a dual threat back,

699
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:19,840
Speaker 1: so I kind of like him here. He's a B

700
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:23,239
Speaker 1: start in a tough matchup. Let's go to the passing game.

701
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton's on the bench. Just not enough weapons here

702
00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:27,480
Speaker 1: to overcome a very good Ravens defense and a good

703
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:30,600
Speaker 1: raven secondary. John Ross is on the bench. He's still

704
00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:33,120
Speaker 1: only getting one in two receptions per game. If he

705
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:36,319
Speaker 1: doesn't get you that touchdown, you get nothing. And this

706
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,680
Speaker 1: is a defense that's only allowed six receivers to score

707
00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:40,920
Speaker 1: on them all season, so John Ross is unlikely to

708
00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 1: get that touchdown you need. And then Tyler Boyd's the

709
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:44,759
Speaker 1: only other Bengal you care about, and he gets a

710
00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:47,640
Speaker 1: B grade. Primarily works out of the slot where he'd

711
00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:51,920
Speaker 1: normally face solid cornerback Tavon Young, but Young is battling

712
00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:53,800
Speaker 1: an ankle injury, and Boyd could be in line to

713
00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:56,600
Speaker 1: face back up Cyrus Jones, and I like that matchup

714
00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:59,440
Speaker 1: a lot. The Ravens have a normally stout pass defense,

715
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,280
Speaker 1: but they have lumped a little bit lately, allowing fifteen

716
00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:04,759
Speaker 1: receptions to wide receivers over the last three weeks. Trust

717
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:06,480
Speaker 1: me when I tell you that is a lot. And

718
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:08,320
Speaker 1: and Tyler Boyd's the only receiver of the Pulse. He

719
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:11,160
Speaker 1: might get all fifteen no opposing receivers at one hundred

720
00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:14,439
Speaker 1: yards against the Ravens all season long. Although I'll note

721
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:16,759
Speaker 1: that Tyler Boyd did score in the first meeting, So

722
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:19,399
Speaker 1: again a B grade on Tyler Boyd. Let's go to

723
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:21,879
Speaker 1: the raven side. I already told you might take a chance.

724
00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:28,080
Speaker 1: I mean quarterback Lamar Miller, Notain Miller, Lamar Jackson, Lamar Miller. No,

725
00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:30,279
Speaker 1: that is not my guy. Let me be extreme, it

726
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:32,080
Speaker 1: never has been. Let me be very clear about that.

727
00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:34,720
Speaker 1: UM and I for reasons I explained earlier in Michael

728
00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:37,360
Speaker 1: Crabtews might take a chance of me wide receiver. I

729
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:41,359
Speaker 1: strongly prefer though, John Brown over Michael Crabtree. Just he's

730
00:37:41,520 --> 00:37:46,040
Speaker 1: he's he's already rostered everywhere. Now. I think Brown will

731
00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:48,360
Speaker 1: probably see a few less passes with Jackson at the

732
00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:50,480
Speaker 1: home because Jackson's just not gonna pass as much. They're

733
00:37:50,480 --> 00:37:52,480
Speaker 1: not gonna have Jackson throw his arm out of socket.

734
00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:56,240
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco was throwing the second most passes in the NFL.

735
00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:58,239
Speaker 1: They're not going to do that to a first start

736
00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 1: rookie here. So I think he sees fewer passes, but

737
00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:06,600
Speaker 1: it's still such a savory matchup. The Bengal secondaries allowed

738
00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:09,240
Speaker 1: five scores to wide receivers in their last three games,

739
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 1: and it looks like he'll match up against Drake Kirkpatrick,

740
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:14,200
Speaker 1: who looks like his career is all but done and

741
00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:16,320
Speaker 1: he's trying to work his way through the concussion protocol

742
00:38:16,400 --> 00:38:18,040
Speaker 1: right now, so I don't even know that he's gonna go,

743
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:19,480
Speaker 1: and they might be able to go to a backup

744
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:21,680
Speaker 1: behind him. I like John Brown a lot for at

745
00:38:21,719 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 1: least one good deep play and then from the running game.

746
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:28,240
Speaker 1: Alex Collins struggled against the Bengals defense earlier in the season,

747
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:30,359
Speaker 1: which is a weird phrase that we don't say very often.

748
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:33,800
Speaker 1: Struggled against the Bengals defense. You only had thirty five yards,

749
00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 1: But I don't care. First again, I don't think Lamar

750
00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:39,799
Speaker 1: Jackson's throwing a lot in this game. I think they're

751
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:42,520
Speaker 1: gonna run Collins a bunch. Second, the Bengals run defense

752
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:45,040
Speaker 1: is regressed badly as well. Over the last month of games,

753
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:47,960
Speaker 1: they ranked twenty nine and rushing attempts thirty and rushing

754
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:51,520
Speaker 1: yards allowed and twenty nine and rushing touchdowns allowed, and

755
00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:54,000
Speaker 1: the Bengals can be without all three of their starting

756
00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:58,279
Speaker 1: linebackers in this game. Nick Vigil and Preston Brown have

757
00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:02,239
Speaker 1: already been ruled out in Vontes. Perfect is questionable. So

758
00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:05,480
Speaker 1: it's set up for a potentially very good game for

759
00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 1: Alex Collins with a B grade. We're gonna work in

760
00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:14,000
Speaker 1: one phone call, as we sometimes do at this very spot,

761
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:19,200
Speaker 1: and it's Joe in Toronto. That was the going guys,

762
00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:21,200
Speaker 1: good Thanks for getting up early for us, even if

763
00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:25,360
Speaker 1: you are in Eastern time. I'm in a half point

764
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:28,560
Speaker 1: per reception league, but we get bonus points for long touchdowns.

765
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:31,640
Speaker 1: I've I've been as my flex. I was gonna go

766
00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:38,160
Speaker 1: with Emmanuel Sanders, but I'm liking Riddick. What do you think? Yeah,

767
00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:40,120
Speaker 1: I kind of like your angle there. First off, you're

768
00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:42,480
Speaker 1: you do not sound like you're from Toronto at all.

769
00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:49,080
Speaker 1: I'm kind of upset by this from Yeah, you're the transplant.

770
00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:53,720
Speaker 1: I can can you put her on the phone, Riddick

771
00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:57,480
Speaker 1: or Sanders. Riddicks can see I do not like Sanders.

772
00:39:58,040 --> 00:39:59,759
Speaker 1: That matchup in a little bit. It is not It's

773
00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:03,080
Speaker 1: not good news for Sanders. Riddick is essentially a wide

774
00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:07,240
Speaker 1: receiver now and he's a wide receiver three this week,

775
00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:09,120
Speaker 1: and if a Charge doesn't like Sanders and we'll find

776
00:40:09,120 --> 00:40:11,479
Speaker 1: out more, I'm he's going to get a C grade

777
00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:12,960
Speaker 1: for me later in the show. And Riddy is a

778
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:14,600
Speaker 1: C grade two and I think I like the games

779
00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:18,520
Speaker 1: with more for the Lion, so I'll go ridic here. Okay,

780
00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:20,880
Speaker 1: I can apple one more question, yes, because it's not

781
00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:27,279
Speaker 1: lightning round. Okay, your thoughts on Howard this week? Jordan Howard? Uh,

782
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:30,880
Speaker 1: I did not have that game? I do. What are

783
00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:33,800
Speaker 1: your thoughts when Jordan well, and again, you know, I

784
00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:36,919
Speaker 1: don't necessarily want to tip tip my entire hand on this,

785
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:40,040
Speaker 1: but I'm lukewarm on Howard and I think he's going

786
00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:41,959
Speaker 1: to be somebody that you want to show a high

787
00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:44,440
Speaker 1: degree of caution with against a very good Vikings run

788
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:48,799
Speaker 1: defense is the long and short of that. I've got

789
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:52,920
Speaker 1: a C grade coming for Howard. Okay, I appreciate it, guys,

790
00:40:52,960 --> 00:40:56,040
Speaker 1: Thank you a lot. YEP. Bye, Joe Um. Joe will

791
00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:59,680
Speaker 1: presumably streaming using the I Heart media app or maybe

792
00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:01,640
Speaker 1: a can fan dot com. You could do the same

793
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:04,040
Speaker 1: thing and that would be terrific when we come back.

794
00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:08,640
Speaker 1: More matchups and three hot questions. Play along, see if

795
00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:10,200
Speaker 1: you can go three and know if our panel of

796
00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:13,439
Speaker 1: experts when Fantasy Football Weekly returns for our number two.

797
00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:19,319
Speaker 1: This is Fantasy Football Weekly presented by devanis on the Man.

798
00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:41,320
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the show Fantasy Football Weekly. I re

799
00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:47,440
Speaker 1: number two for week number eleven, Paul Charge and Bryan Johnson,

800
00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:50,520
Speaker 1: Matt Harrison. This is a bit we like to call

801
00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:54,960
Speaker 1: three hot questions before we dive into that, a quick reminder.

802
00:41:55,480 --> 00:42:01,239
Speaker 1: The Fanball auction game is freaking awesome. It is fast, frantic, strategic.

803
00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:03,520
Speaker 1: It is unlike anything else you have ever played in

804
00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:07,680
Speaker 1: the history of fantasy football. We distribute thirty six players

805
00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:11,360
Speaker 1: in the span of about seven minutes, and it is

806
00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:14,799
Speaker 1: bonkers fun, unlike anything else you've ever done. Even if

807
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:16,759
Speaker 1: you've done online drafts. We encourage you to check it out,

808
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:19,600
Speaker 1: play for free or play for cash fanball dot Com

809
00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:22,600
Speaker 1: slash bid. We did an internal one the other day

810
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:26,680
Speaker 1: at the office and I stole h Melvin Gordon from

811
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:30,000
Speaker 1: Trevor Jones and it caused an eruption in the office

812
00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:33,560
Speaker 1: where we're all like, I love it. There is a shock,

813
00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:36,040
Speaker 1: there's a lot of yelling and screaming. Yeah. In that

814
00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:38,879
Speaker 1: you never get any salary cap game. For example. And

815
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:43,040
Speaker 1: by the way, since we won't be on until after Thanksgiving,

816
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:47,360
Speaker 1: que an auction game up with your family and I

817
00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:49,440
Speaker 1: think if you follow us on Twitter, we might have

818
00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:54,960
Speaker 1: a special Thanksgiving little promo and you might be able

819
00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:57,840
Speaker 1: to play an auction for free and win some cash prizes.

820
00:42:57,920 --> 00:42:59,680
Speaker 1: You can play for free any time you want, but

821
00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:02,759
Speaker 1: not for hash prizes. Yeah, so so make sure that

822
00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:05,719
Speaker 1: you que these up playing with your family at Thanksgiving,

823
00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:08,359
Speaker 1: and everybody will yell at each other as if they

824
00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:12,040
Speaker 1: weren't going to do that anyway Thanksgiving. That's a Thanksgiving tradition.

825
00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:14,719
Speaker 1: Here's a pro tip when playing with people. It's it's

826
00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:16,759
Speaker 1: fun regardless of playing with people. As a blast the

827
00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:22,960
Speaker 1: fake the fake click. If people hear the clicking of

828
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,040
Speaker 1: the mouse and they think you're clicking like crazy, but

829
00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:30,400
Speaker 1: you're actually right clicking, not left clicking, that's a deep

830
00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:33,839
Speaker 1: strategic move right there, I'm clicking a pen that could

831
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:40,800
Speaker 1: be This isn't captivating stuff. Hot Question Number one is

832
00:43:40,840 --> 00:43:45,800
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones, a top seven fantasy running back. Brian No

833
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:48,359
Speaker 1: his past protection is too port I'm just kidding. Yeah,

834
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:51,640
Speaker 1: moving forward, he's gonna be top seven option, and looking

835
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:55,160
Speaker 1: at his schedule of vikings next week probably a mutual matchup.

836
00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:59,080
Speaker 1: But the next week, December twelve, they played the Cardinals,

837
00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:06,720
Speaker 1: and guess that's Aaron Jones birthday, So he has points birthday,

838
00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:09,920
Speaker 1: give you wide Receiver seven rest of season, Aaron Rodgers birthday,

839
00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:11,920
Speaker 1: by the way, same day they share a birthday for

840
00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:15,040
Speaker 1: they share the same first name and the same birthday.

841
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:19,640
Speaker 1: Cardinals and and that's against and that's against the Cardinals

842
00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:23,480
Speaker 1: again and then Falcons next week for Aaron Jones. That's

843
00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:25,600
Speaker 1: that's all you need to know. Yes, RB seven moving forward,

844
00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:31,120
Speaker 1: I'm done, uh No, because there's other running backs that

845
00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:35,480
Speaker 1: are better, uh Todd Gurley, Kareem Hunt, Alvin Kamara, Melvin Gordon,

846
00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:40,080
Speaker 1: James Conner, Christian McCaffrey, se Kwon Barkley, Ezekiel Elliott, David Johnson,

847
00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:43,680
Speaker 1: Joe Mix and that's den So, James White, Naron Jones

848
00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:46,200
Speaker 1: are kind of the next They're like eleven twelve in

849
00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:48,239
Speaker 1: my mind. So I think he's an RB one, but

850
00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:50,920
Speaker 1: he's not a top seven running back and it's because

851
00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:54,400
Speaker 1: he's not getting enough carries. Twelve carries, fourteen, fifteen and

852
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:57,439
Speaker 1: eleven in his last four games. That's just not enough

853
00:44:57,560 --> 00:45:00,640
Speaker 1: handoffs for me to make him a top se even back.

854
00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:04,360
Speaker 1: The reason I landed on top seven, which sounds arbitrary,

855
00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:06,480
Speaker 1: right you Normally we're you know, we were a base

856
00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:08,640
Speaker 1: ten society. We work in top tens or maybe a

857
00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:11,200
Speaker 1: top five, because it's half of that. You have seven fingers.

858
00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:13,720
Speaker 1: That's why you you ended there on each hand. And

859
00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:16,759
Speaker 1: the reason I finished at seven is I I look,

860
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:21,160
Speaker 1: I extrapolated his last month of games and then applied

861
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:24,000
Speaker 1: that too and created that average when his average game

862
00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:26,719
Speaker 1: has been and he's got the seventh highest if you

863
00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:29,560
Speaker 1: extrapolate the last month of games, he ranked seventh in

864
00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:31,279
Speaker 1: running back scoring. So that's how we ended up at

865
00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:34,680
Speaker 1: top seven. And I think is I looked at this,

866
00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:38,440
Speaker 1: there are four guys for sure behind ahead of Aaron Jones.

867
00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:41,000
Speaker 1: You had a list of ten. I think Girley, Camaric,

868
00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:43,680
Speaker 1: Gordon and Connor to me are just far ahead, and

869
00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:46,680
Speaker 1: by scoring, just by by points they are they are farmed.

870
00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:52,040
Speaker 1: Hunt actually is a hair lower than the than Aaron

871
00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:56,000
Speaker 1: Jones is average over the last month, and as is Barkley,

872
00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:58,840
Speaker 1: and so is Christian McCaffrey. Because the touchdowns hadn't always

873
00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:02,080
Speaker 1: been there. So when I went through that, like, Okay,

874
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:04,319
Speaker 1: well this thing gets a little bit trickier. And even

875
00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:07,320
Speaker 1: if I set aside Girly Camara, Gordon Connard, now I

876
00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:11,000
Speaker 1: gotta look at scheduling between Aaron Jones and Barkley and

877
00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:16,400
Speaker 1: Haunt and Christian McCaffrey. Barkley has the toughest schedule left

878
00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:19,960
Speaker 1: period of any of any runner. He doesn't play the

879
00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:22,440
Speaker 1: Cardinals on his birthday, and he does not play the

880
00:46:22,440 --> 00:46:27,160
Speaker 1: Cardinals on his birthday. Um Haunt has the sixth toughest.

881
00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:31,719
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones only plays one defense in the top fifteen

882
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:37,000
Speaker 1: the rest of the year defense Jimmy. That might be

883
00:46:37,000 --> 00:46:45,240
Speaker 1: a factory correct answer. Yes, question number two, should playoff

884
00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:50,360
Speaker 1: bound teams attempt to acquire a j Green Matt Yes,

885
00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:55,360
Speaker 1: because the schedule is so favorable at Baltimore, Cleveland, Denver

886
00:46:56,080 --> 00:47:00,120
Speaker 1: at Chargers, Oakland at Cleveland, and that's Cincinnati Cleveland. The

887
00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:03,520
Speaker 1: game in Week sixteen is going to be the game

888
00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:07,480
Speaker 1: that decides many, many, many fantasy championships because both of

889
00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:10,359
Speaker 1: those defenses are horrible, and both of those offenses are

890
00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:13,680
Speaker 1: competent uh the standings too. They need to win to

891
00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:15,920
Speaker 1: stay in the playoff hunt. And their defense is, like

892
00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:19,560
Speaker 1: I said, absolutely horrible. Their bottom five against the run

893
00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:22,080
Speaker 1: and the pass, so they're gonna need to chuck the

894
00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:24,440
Speaker 1: ball to stay in these games. Yeah. Absolutely should try

895
00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:26,520
Speaker 1: to get A J. Green Okay, Yeah, not a ton

896
00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:28,960
Speaker 1: to add. He's doubtful this week, could still play. I

897
00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:31,000
Speaker 1: hope he doesn't against the Ravens, that's what he gets healthy.

898
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:32,799
Speaker 1: But like Matt said, the rest of the schedule is great.

899
00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:35,040
Speaker 1: The only road stop, the roadblock on the way is

900
00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:37,920
Speaker 1: at at the Clippers, which has become a tough matchup.

901
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:41,080
Speaker 1: But yeah, go get them, go, get them correct the

902
00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:44,000
Speaker 1: correct answers. Yes, And I don't know that I would

903
00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:46,600
Speaker 1: have said that had they not upgraded him too doubtful

904
00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:48,759
Speaker 1: this week. Yeah, that helps. That helps me feel a

905
00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:52,359
Speaker 1: lot better. I was at this time three days ago.

906
00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:55,439
Speaker 1: I was really nervous, like maybe A. J. Green doesn't

907
00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:57,879
Speaker 1: play again, and maybe not well never not this year.

908
00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:01,360
Speaker 1: Maybe that's still scenario that's out there, but that doesn't

909
00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:03,120
Speaker 1: seem to be the case anymore. It looks like he's

910
00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:04,840
Speaker 1: just gonna miss a couple more games well, and this

911
00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:07,400
Speaker 1: might be already to match up this week. Yeah, I

912
00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:09,719
Speaker 1: fin Yeah, right, So miss this one. Go ahead. I

913
00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:12,520
Speaker 1: want you on the field for Oakland and Cleveland in

914
00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:15,680
Speaker 1: my semifinals, in my championship, in my league, and I've

915
00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:18,040
Speaker 1: already put a couple of trade offers out there to

916
00:48:18,080 --> 00:48:23,320
Speaker 1: try to get a j Green in real life. Vanes Hot.

917
00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:27,840
Speaker 1: Question number three. If Lamar Jackson starts the rest of

918
00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:31,280
Speaker 1: the games for the Ravens, where will he rank among

919
00:48:31,400 --> 00:48:34,200
Speaker 1: quarterbacks from this point forward? Will he be a top

920
00:48:34,280 --> 00:48:39,759
Speaker 1: ten quarterback? Will he be ranked eleventh through sixteen to

921
00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:44,200
Speaker 1: twenty or worse than twenty? So you got four different options,

922
00:48:44,239 --> 00:48:48,080
Speaker 1: top ten or eleven through fifteen, or sixteen through twenty

923
00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:53,160
Speaker 1: or worse than twenty, Ryan, I so want to go

924
00:48:53,360 --> 00:48:56,400
Speaker 1: eleven to fifteen here, just because we're doing a lot

925
00:48:56,400 --> 00:48:58,280
Speaker 1: of rest of season schedule, as we should be in

926
00:48:58,360 --> 00:49:01,319
Speaker 1: the Ravens. Rest is eason is absolutely insane when it

927
00:49:01,320 --> 00:49:07,560
Speaker 1: comes to uh easiness for quarterbacks Bengals, Raiders, Falcons, Chiefs, Bucks,

928
00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:10,839
Speaker 1: that's just that's nuts. But Jackson is a rookie. He's

929
00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:14,040
Speaker 1: probably gonna put up more points running than throwing. I feel,

930
00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:16,839
Speaker 1: so I gotta put him just outside eleven fifteen range

931
00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:19,520
Speaker 1: and go sixteen to twenty which makes him very startable

932
00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:22,719
Speaker 1: in two quarterback formats the rest of season, very to

933
00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:25,359
Speaker 1: your sixteen to twenty. All right, I know I know

934
00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:27,480
Speaker 1: where Charch is gonna fall in this. He's gonna get

935
00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:29,919
Speaker 1: really excited and he's going to talk about the rushing numbers.

936
00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:32,719
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna talk about the passing numbers. If you

937
00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:35,440
Speaker 1: take that schedule, that rest of season schedule that Brian

938
00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:39,040
Speaker 1: just talked about, and you add up what there's these

939
00:49:39,080 --> 00:49:41,480
Speaker 1: averages are going to be, what these snuffs are gonna be.

940
00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:46,919
Speaker 1: Two nine four passing yards and two point one touchdowns

941
00:49:46,920 --> 00:49:50,880
Speaker 1: per game is what the average quarterback is throwing against

942
00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:54,399
Speaker 1: these two nine four and two point two point one

943
00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:57,759
Speaker 1: two point one against these last six teams. Okay, that's

944
00:49:57,800 --> 00:50:02,320
Speaker 1: not top ten, that's top five. He might be that good,

945
00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:09,200
Speaker 1: so you're going top ten for sure. Okay. Uh, let's

946
00:50:09,239 --> 00:50:13,439
Speaker 1: just say hypothetically for Lamar Jackson. If right now he's

947
00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:17,959
Speaker 1: getting about five touches a game in those in those

948
00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:21,200
Speaker 1: and yet he's still rushing for fifteen to thirty yards

949
00:50:21,239 --> 00:50:25,480
Speaker 1: in every game on five plays, What's how many rushing

950
00:50:25,600 --> 00:50:29,319
Speaker 1: yards can we safely say he's going to have if

951
00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:34,200
Speaker 1: he's the quarterback for every play forty forty. Okay, I've

952
00:50:34,200 --> 00:50:37,040
Speaker 1: got forty five close, so let's do that. I got

953
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:41,200
Speaker 1: forty three point seven that'll work to But to be

954
00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:45,319
Speaker 1: cleared out, he's got seventy yard upside eight yard up

955
00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:49,680
Speaker 1: rushing rushing yard upside for Lamar Jackson. If you're gonna

956
00:50:49,760 --> 00:50:53,680
Speaker 1: run for forty fifty sixty seventy eight yards, you've got

957
00:50:53,680 --> 00:50:55,640
Speaker 1: a coin flips chance of a touchdown in any game.

958
00:50:55,840 --> 00:50:58,160
Speaker 1: So let's give him half a rushing touchdown in every game.

959
00:50:58,920 --> 00:51:01,439
Speaker 1: Then he's not even though the opposing teams are giving

960
00:51:01,480 --> 00:51:04,720
Speaker 1: up two passing yards, he's not as good a passer

961
00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:06,640
Speaker 1: as the teams that have faced these guys. Let's just

962
00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:10,240
Speaker 1: let's knock him all the way down to two ten alright,

963
00:51:10,760 --> 00:51:12,200
Speaker 1: So let's knock him all the way down to two

964
00:51:12,719 --> 00:51:15,719
Speaker 1: passing yards and about half as many touchdowns, about one

965
00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:18,200
Speaker 1: and a half what these teams are giving up. Just

966
00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:23,160
Speaker 1: to be conservative, if Lamar Jackson's gonna average forty rushing yards,

967
00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:26,680
Speaker 1: half a touchdown, two passing yards, and one and a

968
00:51:26,760 --> 00:51:31,280
Speaker 1: half passing touchdowns per game, easily attainable very modest numbers.

969
00:51:32,440 --> 00:51:37,399
Speaker 1: He's quarterback nine. That's nine, and those are times. I

970
00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:41,560
Speaker 1: think that. I think those are all almost like bottom

971
00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:47,600
Speaker 1: basement floor type numbers four Lamar Jackson. He will be

972
00:51:47,880 --> 00:51:52,399
Speaker 1: a top ten fantasy quarterback the rest of the year

973
00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:56,720
Speaker 1: if he starts the rest of the games. Who watch

974
00:51:56,760 --> 00:51:59,239
Speaker 1: him start this game and get yanked half way through

975
00:51:59,239 --> 00:52:05,200
Speaker 1: for our uh? But this it illustrates what a rushing

976
00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:10,319
Speaker 1: quarterback can do that a a immobile quarterback cannot do.

977
00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:13,680
Speaker 1: Why was Dak Prescott a top seven quarterback last week?

978
00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:16,240
Speaker 1: Was last year? Wasn't his arm? It was the rushing

979
00:52:16,280 --> 00:52:20,200
Speaker 1: touchdowns outside of Kansas City, l A. I cannot watch,

980
00:52:20,200 --> 00:52:24,320
Speaker 1: wait to watch accident. It's gonna be fun, fun, fun watching.

981
00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:26,960
Speaker 1: Let's get back to the matchups, including Tampa taking on

982
00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:30,400
Speaker 1: the Giants. UH Stu Beard another chance to take apart

983
00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:34,120
Speaker 1: your secondary. I contend your secondary is better that the

984
00:52:34,200 --> 00:52:37,960
Speaker 1: Eli apple was additioned by subtraction. But what do you

985
00:52:37,960 --> 00:52:40,399
Speaker 1: think about Ryan Fitzpatrick in the passing game? In this one?

986
00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:44,160
Speaker 1: About this? That? Uh? For Fitzpatrick four passing games of

987
00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:47,920
Speaker 1: four indred passing dred plus passing yards of this season

988
00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:50,520
Speaker 1: has already matched the record set for most of the

989
00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:53,200
Speaker 1: season done by Peyton Manning and Dan Marino. Well, and

990
00:52:53,239 --> 00:52:56,839
Speaker 1: by the way, his four yard passing games have come

991
00:52:56,880 --> 00:53:00,040
Speaker 1: in four full games. He's at four full game and

992
00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:01,759
Speaker 1: did he started forwarder yards and all of them? Ye,

993
00:53:02,040 --> 00:53:03,840
Speaker 1: So you gotta give him at least to see in

994
00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:06,520
Speaker 1: this one. Uh, I'll give him a B, all right,

995
00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:07,800
Speaker 1: I just need to worry about the bucks on the

996
00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:09,960
Speaker 1: road a little bit. Well, you want me to give

997
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,000
Speaker 1: him an aid, don't you know? Actually don't. All right,

998
00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:14,440
Speaker 1: I'll give him a B. Is not even the Giants

999
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:16,920
Speaker 1: are allowing over three passing yards for the game and

1000
00:53:16,960 --> 00:53:20,239
Speaker 1: two an half touchdown, So I'll give Fitzpatrick the B

1001
00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:24,360
Speaker 1: for chart here be also for Mike Evans. Opposing number

1002
00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:27,120
Speaker 1: one receivers have struggled against the Giants. Only one is

1003
00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:29,560
Speaker 1: top the hundred yards and they only given up two touchdowns.

1004
00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:31,920
Speaker 1: So I only have the B for Evans in this game.

1005
00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:34,440
Speaker 1: I'll get to Seawan Jackson to see has had some

1006
00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:37,720
Speaker 1: success against the Giants in the past in the Meadowlands. Uh,

1007
00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:40,560
Speaker 1: specifically that returned touchdown in twenty ten. That ripped my

1008
00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:41,840
Speaker 1: heart out and I kept Hi out of the playoffs.

1009
00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:44,280
Speaker 1: But anyway, outside of Alshon Jeffrey, the only wide receivers

1010
00:53:44,280 --> 00:53:46,600
Speaker 1: and not to touchdown against New York were secondary options

1011
00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:48,800
Speaker 1: of the speedier variety. So I like Jackson here he

1012
00:53:48,800 --> 00:53:50,719
Speaker 1: gets a see I got Chris god went on the bench,

1013
00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:53,040
Speaker 1: did top a hundred yards last week but was last

1014
00:53:53,040 --> 00:53:55,239
Speaker 1: and routes run by Tampa Bay wide receivers. So he's

1015
00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:57,200
Speaker 1: on the bench and this one as is Adam Humphreys.

1016
00:53:57,400 --> 00:53:59,800
Speaker 1: Giants are only allowing twelve catches per game to wide receivers,

1017
00:53:59,800 --> 00:54:01,600
Speaker 1: so the not enough to go around for humphrees. Here

1018
00:54:01,640 --> 00:54:03,960
Speaker 1: it's only uh Jackson and Evans for white outs from

1019
00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:07,000
Speaker 1: e they're playing in this game, o J. Howard, give

1020
00:54:07,080 --> 00:54:09,400
Speaker 1: him a B. It's a birthday eve game for o

1021
00:54:09,560 --> 00:54:13,040
Speaker 1: J birthday on Monday. On paper, the Giants have been

1022
00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:15,960
Speaker 1: tough against tight ends, but guys like George Kittle, zach Ertz,

1023
00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:18,719
Speaker 1: you know Howard's kind of in that realm. They've done

1024
00:54:18,719 --> 00:54:20,359
Speaker 1: all right. So I like Howard in this game. I'll

1025
00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:22,520
Speaker 1: give him a B because again, any tight end with

1026
00:54:22,520 --> 00:54:25,120
Speaker 1: the pulse is stortable in this day and age, except

1027
00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:27,239
Speaker 1: Cameron Brad. I have him on the bench, and then

1028
00:54:27,280 --> 00:54:29,920
Speaker 1: then Peyton Barber. He's looking good. I was running hard

1029
00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:32,480
Speaker 1: last week. He's healthy, He's run hard. The Giants have

1030
00:54:32,560 --> 00:54:35,440
Speaker 1: surrendered fourteen total touchdowns to running backs. And even though

1031
00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:37,960
Speaker 1: he's Rogers is a threat to take some of the

1032
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:40,319
Speaker 1: passing game work, I like Barbara in this game to

1033
00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:43,040
Speaker 1: give him a B over the Giants. And before you

1034
00:54:43,040 --> 00:54:45,080
Speaker 1: go to the Giants, let me mention this about Fitzpatrick,

1035
00:54:45,080 --> 00:54:47,560
Speaker 1: who rolls in with a streak of four four hundred

1036
00:54:47,640 --> 00:54:50,040
Speaker 1: yard games and all four of his full games. The

1037
00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:53,000
Speaker 1: last time the Giants gave up a four hundred yard

1038
00:54:53,080 --> 00:54:57,080
Speaker 1: passing game was forty nine games ago. So I think

1039
00:54:57,120 --> 00:54:59,600
Speaker 1: the street could very easily come to an end here,

1040
00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:01,920
Speaker 1: but you never know. Like uh, like I mentioned in

1041
00:55:01,960 --> 00:55:06,160
Speaker 1: take hom seventy points is what teams are snuffing in

1042
00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:10,160
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Roads. So it's catching on. So for that reason,

1043
00:55:10,560 --> 00:55:13,439
Speaker 1: kwon o b j A, I'm not gonna go there,

1044
00:55:13,840 --> 00:55:16,520
Speaker 1: Sterling Shepard, he gets some be slot receivers have slayd

1045
00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:18,759
Speaker 1: the Bucks of this season. Evan Ingram give him a

1046
00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:22,040
Speaker 1: B as well. Tamp tight ends. Eight different tight ends

1047
00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:24,359
Speaker 1: have top fifty yards against Tampa Bay this year. That's

1048
00:55:24,360 --> 00:55:26,359
Speaker 1: a lot of tight ends stopping fifty yards. Great spot

1049
00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:28,719
Speaker 1: for Ingram and for all those reasons, Eli was my

1050
00:55:28,840 --> 00:55:32,520
Speaker 1: take a chance on the quarterback, get get it done.

1051
00:55:32,520 --> 00:55:35,120
Speaker 1: Eli that let's hope. So if not, now when right?

1052
00:55:37,160 --> 00:55:40,920
Speaker 1: This is it? Tennessee takes on Indianapolis Matt. Yeah, I

1053
00:55:41,040 --> 00:55:44,880
Speaker 1: kind of like Marcus Mariotta. He was my provisional, my provisional.

1054
00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:46,440
Speaker 1: Take a chance on me in case this whole of

1055
00:55:46,520 --> 00:55:49,200
Speaker 1: Mark Jackson thank blows up and he doesn't start. Yeah.

1056
00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:51,200
Speaker 1: Before I get into that, I wanted to say thanks

1057
00:55:51,239 --> 00:55:55,399

Speaker 1: donate ten bucks anyway, Um, Marcus Mariott to Chart gave

1066
00:56:20,760 --> 00:56:23,080
Speaker 1: him a B grade. I think would that would that

1067
00:56:23,080 --> 00:56:25,480
Speaker 1: be fair? You like Mario to that much? No, I've

1068
00:56:25,520 --> 00:56:27,879
Speaker 1: got I've got a I've graded him as an eight

1069
00:56:27,880 --> 00:56:31,000
Speaker 1: point five, which is safely right in the middle of

1070
00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:33,959
Speaker 1: the B grade. Yeah. Over the past six games, non

1071
00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:36,960
Speaker 1: Bills quarterbacks are averaging three hundred twelve yards and two

1072
00:56:37,040 --> 00:56:40,440
Speaker 1: point four touchdowns against the Colts. That includes multiple touchdowns

1073
00:56:40,440 --> 00:56:44,040
Speaker 1: to Blake Bordles, Sam Donald, and Derek Carr. Uh. Yeah,

1074
00:56:44,360 --> 00:56:46,960
Speaker 1: so Mario does a solid B. Dion Lewis I'm giving

1075
00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:50,560
Speaker 1: a C grade too. He's averaging over twenty touches since

1076
00:56:50,600 --> 00:56:54,440
Speaker 1: Week seven. The problem is he's only scored one touchdown

1077
00:56:54,440 --> 00:56:57,280
Speaker 1: in the last eight games and only topped one hundred

1078
00:56:57,280 --> 00:57:00,640
Speaker 1: total yards three times on the season. The Colts are

1079
00:57:00,800 --> 00:57:03,400
Speaker 1: allowing only a hundred and fifty four total yards per

1080
00:57:03,400 --> 00:57:06,239
Speaker 1: game to opposing backs, so that's gonna be split with

1081
00:57:06,280 --> 00:57:10,320
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry a little bit, who's also a CEE. Henry's

1082
00:57:10,360 --> 00:57:13,279
Speaker 1: had three touchdown runs in his last sixteen carries, which

1083
00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:16,560
Speaker 1: includes four touchdowns in the last three weeks. No, I

1084
00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:18,280
Speaker 1: don't want to. I don't want to bank on him

1085
00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:21,960
Speaker 1: getting the ultimate vulture. He hasn't ran for more than

1086
00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:24,680
Speaker 1: fourteen yards in any carry this season, though, and the

1087
00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:27,680
Speaker 1: Colts have been good against power runners. Adrian Peterson held

1088
00:57:27,680 --> 00:57:30,800
Speaker 1: the twenty yards four net had UH fifty three running

1089
00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:34,200
Speaker 1: yards last week on twenty four carries. Hi Brian you

1090
00:57:34,200 --> 00:57:42,520
Speaker 1: know what we call the ultimate vulture vol tron vault tron. Okay, okay,

1091
00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:44,800
Speaker 1: So by the way, Dean Lewis, but you know, since

1092
00:57:44,800 --> 00:57:47,160
Speaker 1: we've already broke the cadence here, I think Dan Lewis

1093
00:57:47,160 --> 00:57:48,720
Speaker 1: is sitting at a big game through the air, six

1094
00:57:48,760 --> 00:57:51,960
Speaker 1: different runners of top fifty receiving yards, three different runners

1095
00:57:52,000 --> 00:57:54,720
Speaker 1: in the last two weeks. If top fifty receiving yards,

1096
00:57:54,840 --> 00:57:57,320
Speaker 1: and that's all Lewis has, bit Henry's not taking any

1097
00:57:57,360 --> 00:57:59,440
Speaker 1: of that action. Here's what I think I think he's

1098
00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:01,240
Speaker 1: gonna come up with. I think he's gonna come up

1099
00:58:01,280 --> 00:58:05,600
Speaker 1: with like total yards and no touchdowns. Maybe. But if

1100
00:58:05,600 --> 00:58:08,600
Speaker 1: he if he does that on six receptions, you said,

1101
00:58:08,680 --> 00:58:10,720
Speaker 1: you gotta pretty, you gotta B grade right there, I

1102
00:58:10,760 --> 00:58:12,360
Speaker 1: think I think it's a C grade for me. Right

1103
00:58:13,320 --> 00:58:15,919
Speaker 1: He doesn't score enough to get a B grade. That's

1104
00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:21,800
Speaker 1: the problem. B grades are for scores. I'm sorry, I'm

1105
00:58:21,880 --> 00:58:25,840
Speaker 1: so sorry I ever interrupted you. Right now, Corey Davis,

1106
00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:28,640
Speaker 1: he gets a C grade. Davis averages a hundred and

1107
00:58:28,640 --> 00:58:30,760
Speaker 1: forty three yards in the two games in which he

1108
00:58:30,880 --> 00:58:34,240
Speaker 1: scored a touchdown. He get averages forty one yards in

1109
00:58:34,280 --> 00:58:36,880
Speaker 1: the seven games where he hasn't scored a touchdown. It's

1110
00:58:36,880 --> 00:58:38,640
Speaker 1: the middle of the road matchup for him, so only

1111
00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:41,400
Speaker 1: gets the C grade. And Cameron Batson was already might

1112
00:58:41,400 --> 00:58:44,240
Speaker 1: take a chance on me quarterback or wide receiver. Over

1113
00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:47,080
Speaker 1: on the other side, Andrew Luck, he's getting a B grade.

1114
00:58:47,320 --> 00:58:51,480
Speaker 1: Luck has never lost to the Titans. Never. You are

1115
00:58:51,600 --> 00:58:54,320
Speaker 1: killing me on your luck, hatred. What is wrong with you?

1116
00:58:54,400 --> 00:58:56,760
Speaker 1: What he has? Last week? You had him on the bench.

1117
00:58:57,160 --> 00:58:59,720
Speaker 1: This week he's filled throwing three or four touchdowns and

1118
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:06,280
Speaker 1: extraight games. B grade this week? Yes, yeah, this week? Yeah?

1119
00:59:05,280 --> 00:59:10,200
Speaker 1: What's to not make him an A grade in this matchup?

1120
00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:14,040
Speaker 1: The Titans have allowed two touchdowns two touchdown passes in

1121
00:59:14,080 --> 00:59:17,400
Speaker 1: five games this year. They've only they've allowed zero or

1122
00:59:17,480 --> 00:59:20,000
Speaker 1: one in the other four. So I like him to

1123
00:59:20,040 --> 00:59:23,080
Speaker 1: score throw two touchdowns in this game. I don't know

1124
00:59:23,120 --> 00:59:25,400
Speaker 1: if I like him to throw three or four, which

1125
00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:28,080
Speaker 1: he's had to do to be fantasy relevant. He can

1126
00:59:28,120 --> 00:59:32,120
Speaker 1: get three or four against Malcolm Butler by himself. He's

1127
00:59:32,120 --> 00:59:37,640
Speaker 1: gonna catch the ball to t Y Hilton. I'm giving

1128
00:59:37,680 --> 00:59:41,320
Speaker 1: a B speaking of Malcolm Butler. Hilton will likely draw Butler,

1129
00:59:41,360 --> 00:59:44,000
Speaker 1: who's allowing a passer rating of a hundred and forty

1130
00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:47,320
Speaker 1: two on passes in his coverage, and Hilton has had

1131
00:59:47,360 --> 00:59:51,360
Speaker 1: to yard games and four scores in his last three

1132
00:59:51,360 --> 00:59:55,920
Speaker 1: times against Tennessee. Jack Doyle and Eric Ebron both getting

1133
00:59:55,920 --> 00:59:58,280
Speaker 1: B grades. The only worthwhile tight end the Titans have

1134
00:59:58,400 --> 01:00:01,240
Speaker 1: faced zach Ertz. He had ten catches in a hundred

1135
01:00:01,240 --> 01:00:04,320
Speaker 1: and twelve yards Abrons seventh overall in red zone targets

1136
01:00:04,520 --> 01:00:07,320
Speaker 1: in the league this season and second red zone touchdown catches,

1137
01:00:07,680 --> 01:00:09,640
Speaker 1: and Doyle had a hundred and forty four yards in

1138
01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:12,320
Speaker 1: him score in the two meetings with the Titans last year.

1139
01:00:12,920 --> 01:00:15,600
Speaker 1: Marlon Mack is on the bench. Though Alex Collins is

1140
01:00:15,640 --> 01:00:18,960
Speaker 1: the only fantasy relevant running back to score against the

1141
01:00:18,960 --> 01:00:21,280
Speaker 1: Titans this year, They've been very good against the run.

1142
01:00:21,800 --> 01:00:24,720
Speaker 1: Only one back his top seventy yards against them all year.

1143
01:00:24,760 --> 01:00:29,480
Speaker 1: So Marlon Mack is on the bench. Bench, bench man,

1144
01:00:29,600 --> 01:00:32,880
Speaker 1: he's not a touchdown. You need to work, You need

1145
01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:35,360
Speaker 1: a therapist to work through whatever you got against the Colts.

1146
01:00:35,360 --> 01:00:38,280
Speaker 1: Did the did the Colts touch you appropriately as a child?

1147
01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:43,680
Speaker 1: Gave everybody but Marlon Mack a B grade and I'm negative, Yes,

1148
01:00:45,200 --> 01:00:48,040
Speaker 1: it's just a grades for everybody. Then in charges world,

1149
01:00:48,240 --> 01:00:52,960
Speaker 1: start them all this is the Colts have been an

1150
01:00:53,040 --> 01:00:55,880
Speaker 1: awesome offense that I don't know how you end up

1151
01:00:55,920 --> 01:00:59,160
Speaker 1: with Colts matchups every week, but I demand the Colt

1152
01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:03,600
Speaker 1: matchup next week, right the wrongs done by you to

1153
01:01:03,760 --> 01:01:05,760
Speaker 1: this team over the last two weeks. I just wanted

1154
01:01:05,760 --> 01:01:09,320
Speaker 1: to get some coffee. What I miss nothing, absolutely nothing.

1155
01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:13,920
Speaker 1: When we come back Denver taking on the Chargers. Philip

1156
01:01:14,040 --> 01:01:16,440
Speaker 1: Lindsay has been one of the bright finds of the

1157
01:01:16,480 --> 01:01:19,360
Speaker 1: fantasy season, but a tricky matchup will tell you if

1158
01:01:19,360 --> 01:01:21,000
Speaker 1: you dare start him this week when we come back.

1159
01:01:21,160 --> 01:01:25,080
Speaker 1: This is Fantasy Football Weekly presented by green Bell Premium

1160
01:01:25,320 --> 01:01:41,840
Speaker 1: on the Fan. Welcome back to the show Fantasy Football

1161
01:01:41,880 --> 01:01:46,320
Speaker 1: Weekly on the Fan. Paul In, Brian Johnson, Matt Harrison

1162
01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:49,000
Speaker 1: with you. Let's dive right back into the matchups, beginning

1163
01:01:49,040 --> 01:01:52,600
Speaker 1: with Denver taking on the Los Angeles Chargers. A note

1164
01:01:52,600 --> 01:01:54,800
Speaker 1: on the Denver side of this that you probably don't know.

1165
01:01:55,320 --> 01:01:58,360
Speaker 1: Two weeks ago they lost their starting center. This week

1166
01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:00,920
Speaker 1: they're starting guard Max car see it towards a c

1167
01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:05,040
Speaker 1: L in practice, and so the Broncos starting offensive line

1168
01:02:05,080 --> 01:02:08,400
Speaker 1: is gonna have three players that are playing at their

1169
01:02:08,480 --> 01:02:11,440
Speaker 1: unnatural positions and two of them are backups, so the

1170
01:02:11,480 --> 01:02:14,160
Speaker 1: offensive line is a wreck for Denver right now, and

1171
01:02:14,200 --> 01:02:18,040
Speaker 1: that has pushed down my expectations for everybody, including Case Kingdom,

1172
01:02:18,040 --> 01:02:21,680
Speaker 1: who's on the bench. He's averaging one touchdown per game

1173
01:02:21,800 --> 01:02:24,480
Speaker 1: since the opener and the Charges are allowing just one

1174
01:02:24,520 --> 01:02:27,360
Speaker 1: touchdown past per game since Week five, so it feels

1175
01:02:27,360 --> 01:02:29,560
Speaker 1: like a one touchdown game coming for Case Kingdom here.

1176
01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:32,600
Speaker 1: Only one quarterback has hit three hundred yards against the

1177
01:02:32,680 --> 01:02:36,080
Speaker 1: Chargers all year, and Keendom short is you know, one

1178
01:02:36,080 --> 01:02:38,040
Speaker 1: of his best weapons to Marius Thomas, and the offense

1179
01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:40,200
Speaker 1: didn't look quite right without him last time we saw them,

1180
01:02:40,240 --> 01:02:43,439
Speaker 1: so I don't love this matchup for Keendom or any

1181
01:02:43,440 --> 01:02:45,680
Speaker 1: of his receivers. Let's go to Emmanuel Sanders, who has

1182
01:02:45,720 --> 01:02:48,160
Speaker 1: just got a C grade here in a brutal matchup

1183
01:02:48,480 --> 01:02:51,240
Speaker 1: against Desmond King out of the slot. King is only

1184
01:02:51,280 --> 01:02:55,320
Speaker 1: allowed one touchdown in his coverage all year. And what's more,

1185
01:02:55,960 --> 01:02:59,800
Speaker 1: get this, the average game in his coverage is three

1186
01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:03,680
Speaker 1: hatches for thirty one yards. That's it. So brutal matchup

1187
01:03:03,720 --> 01:03:06,600
Speaker 1: for Emmanuel Sanders. The C grade is only out of

1188
01:03:06,640 --> 01:03:09,600
Speaker 1: respect for him and the fact that this offense largely

1189
01:03:09,640 --> 01:03:12,440
Speaker 1: goes passing offense largely goes through his hands. As you

1190
01:03:12,440 --> 01:03:15,240
Speaker 1: can imagine if I only have a sea on Emmanuel Sanders,

1191
01:03:15,440 --> 01:03:19,520
Speaker 1: Courtland cut certain Courtland Sutton is safely on the bench,

1192
01:03:19,720 --> 01:03:22,840
Speaker 1: especially with shadow coverage from Casey Award coming. I want

1193
01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:27,720
Speaker 1: no part of Courtland Sutton in this one. Um, Jeff Hireman,

1194
01:03:27,800 --> 01:03:30,640
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to mention him here. He's seen twelve

1195
01:03:30,640 --> 01:03:32,760
Speaker 1: red zone targets in the past seven games, and in

1196
01:03:32,800 --> 01:03:35,200
Speaker 1: the past six games, the Chargers have allowed four fifty

1197
01:03:35,240 --> 01:03:37,240
Speaker 1: yard games and four scores to the tight end position.

1198
01:03:38,600 --> 01:03:41,000
Speaker 1: As alluded to earlier, we're at a stage where Jeff

1199
01:03:41,040 --> 01:03:43,200
Speaker 1: Hireman's a top ten tight end because he's there. That's

1200
01:03:43,200 --> 01:03:45,840
Speaker 1: all that's left. I think he's legit though, and he's

1201
01:03:47,120 --> 01:03:49,880
Speaker 1: a name doesn't scream uh sex appeal when it comes

1202
01:03:49,880 --> 01:03:53,520
Speaker 1: to fantasy football. But he's wait wait wait, Heierman is

1203
01:03:53,600 --> 01:03:57,160
Speaker 1: German for sex appeal. It actually is. Yeah, there, looked

1204
01:03:57,200 --> 01:04:00,960
Speaker 1: it up. Yes, just looked it up my translator. So

1205
01:04:01,360 --> 01:04:03,919
Speaker 1: Jeff Hireman is a C is a C grade. Let's

1206
01:04:03,920 --> 01:04:06,240
Speaker 1: go to the running game for Philip Lindsay. You need

1207
01:04:06,280 --> 01:04:08,439
Speaker 1: to know that Royce Freeman will return in this game,

1208
01:04:08,880 --> 01:04:12,600
Speaker 1: and when he comes back. It turns what had been

1209
01:04:12,880 --> 01:04:16,200
Speaker 1: eighteen rushes per game for Philip Lindsay back to where

1210
01:04:16,240 --> 01:04:19,600
Speaker 1: he normally is, which is twelve. That that hurts a bit. Fortunately,

1211
01:04:19,680 --> 01:04:21,800
Speaker 1: the Chargers are beatible run defense or giving a five

1212
01:04:21,880 --> 01:04:24,200
Speaker 1: yards per carry over the last three weeks, and I

1213
01:04:24,280 --> 01:04:26,920
Speaker 1: really like Lindsay through the air. The Chargers have allowed

1214
01:04:26,920 --> 01:04:29,840
Speaker 1: the second most receiving yards to runners, including at least

1215
01:04:29,880 --> 01:04:33,080
Speaker 1: fifty one yards in seven of the past eight games.

1216
01:04:33,080 --> 01:04:34,880
Speaker 1: If we can get to fifty one or more for Lindsay,

1217
01:04:34,880 --> 01:04:36,840
Speaker 1: he's probably sitting at a one hundred yard total game.

1218
01:04:37,080 --> 01:04:39,200
Speaker 1: And here's the thing. With the offensive line problems I mentioned,

1219
01:04:39,240 --> 01:04:41,240
Speaker 1: I see a lot of short dumpop stuff coming to

1220
01:04:41,280 --> 01:04:45,040
Speaker 1: Philip Lindsay. I actually looked up what means in German.

1221
01:04:45,480 --> 01:04:48,920
Speaker 1: It means this year. Doesn't really he's this year man.

1222
01:04:49,200 --> 01:04:52,480
Speaker 1: He's this year man. Man didn't start playing football until

1223
01:04:52,600 --> 01:04:57,680
Speaker 1: ninth grade. That's fascinating. Third round pick out of Ohio State. Now,

1224
01:04:58,280 --> 01:05:00,960
Speaker 1: how about that he's this year's man six five and

1225
01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:06,960
Speaker 1: weights Manu Royce Freeman back on the bench. He's he

1226
01:05:07,480 --> 01:05:11,040
Speaker 1: before his injury, his foot injury, he was getting about

1227
01:05:11,120 --> 01:05:14,680
Speaker 1: nine ish carries a game, and he was totally touchdown dependents.

1228
01:05:14,720 --> 01:05:17,280
Speaker 1: He wasn't doing a lot with the nine carries. Here's

1229
01:05:17,280 --> 01:05:20,080
Speaker 1: the problem for a touchdown dependent back. The Chargers have

1230
01:05:20,120 --> 01:05:23,000
Speaker 1: allowed one rushing touchdown in their last six games, so

1231
01:05:23,120 --> 01:05:26,560
Speaker 1: a terrible time to start Royce Freeman. Unfortunately, let's go

1232
01:05:26,600 --> 01:05:28,280
Speaker 1: to the let's go to the Chargers side of this.

1233
01:05:28,320 --> 01:05:30,960
Speaker 1: I like the passing game. Philip Rivers only quarterback in

1234
01:05:30,960 --> 01:05:34,080
Speaker 1: the NFL multiple passing touchdowns in every game this year.

1235
01:05:34,320 --> 01:05:36,960
Speaker 1: Denver secondary has improved since being pretty wobbly at the

1236
01:05:36,960 --> 01:05:40,760
Speaker 1: beginning of the year. Russell Wilson, Deshaun Watson, Patrick Mahomes

1237
01:05:40,760 --> 01:05:46,040
Speaker 1: twice did quality passers like those guys, averaging two yards

1238
01:05:46,040 --> 01:05:47,760
Speaker 1: two and a half touchdowns. That's why I still like

1239
01:05:47,800 --> 01:05:49,680
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers here, and he still gets an A grade

1240
01:05:49,680 --> 01:05:54,560
Speaker 1: because I think he's in that Wilson, Watson Mahomes level

1241
01:05:54,680 --> 01:05:57,640
Speaker 1: of production. To eighty and two and a half sounds right. Uh.

1242
01:05:57,720 --> 01:05:59,880
Speaker 1: And by the way, Rivers average game this year almost

1243
01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:02,160
Speaker 1: exactly two eighty and two and a half, So I

1244
01:06:02,240 --> 01:06:04,560
Speaker 1: like him. I like Keenan Allen to a B grade.

1245
01:06:04,760 --> 01:06:07,360
Speaker 1: In two meetings with the Broncos a season ago, Alan

1246
01:06:07,440 --> 01:06:10,000
Speaker 1: did very little, averaging four catches for thirty eight yards,

1247
01:06:10,040 --> 01:06:12,680
Speaker 1: although he did score once. The broncos best cornerback is

1248
01:06:12,760 --> 01:06:14,840
Speaker 1: Chris Harris, who plays the slot, and that's where Alan

1249
01:06:14,880 --> 01:06:17,240
Speaker 1: lines up the most. So I don't love this matchup,

1250
01:06:17,240 --> 01:06:19,600
Speaker 1: but I'll note that Larry Fitzgerald scored from the slot

1251
01:06:19,800 --> 01:06:23,040
Speaker 1: against the Broncos three weeks ago. Tyrone Williams startable in

1252
01:06:23,080 --> 01:06:25,760
Speaker 1: this game. Williams has been held scoreless in his last

1253
01:06:25,800 --> 01:06:28,760
Speaker 1: four with Denver and averages twenty five yards per game

1254
01:06:28,760 --> 01:06:30,360
Speaker 1: in those but that was what they when they had

1255
01:06:30,400 --> 01:06:32,120
Speaker 1: to keep to leave and they're not as good this year.

1256
01:06:32,360 --> 01:06:35,600
Speaker 1: Denver secondaries allowed seven scores and four one hund yard

1257
01:06:35,600 --> 01:06:37,880
Speaker 1: games to receivers in the last five weeks. So I

1258
01:06:37,920 --> 01:06:39,919
Speaker 1: like Tyrolle Williams, and if you're really in a pench,

1259
01:06:39,920 --> 01:06:41,400
Speaker 1: although I've got a bench grade on him, you could

1260
01:06:41,400 --> 01:06:45,640
Speaker 1: throw a flyer at Mike Williams. Um I think we're

1261
01:06:45,680 --> 01:06:47,640
Speaker 1: gonna get helped out both on the ground and through

1262
01:06:47,680 --> 01:06:50,919
Speaker 1: the air by Melvin Gordon. Tough matchup on the ground.

1263
01:06:50,920 --> 01:06:52,960
Speaker 1: Will acknowledge that the last four weeks, the Broncos have

1264
01:06:52,960 --> 01:06:55,000
Speaker 1: allowed running backs to gain an NFL worst two and

1265
01:06:55,000 --> 01:06:58,200
Speaker 1: a half yards per carry and zero scores. But here

1266
01:06:58,240 --> 01:07:00,880
Speaker 1: comes Gordon, who has scored in every game since the opener.

1267
01:07:00,920 --> 01:07:03,760
Speaker 1: He's got eleven touchdowns, third most among all runners, and

1268
01:07:04,080 --> 01:07:06,320
Speaker 1: crushing it in the passing game with more than fifty

1269
01:07:06,360 --> 01:07:08,840
Speaker 1: receiving yards and half his games. Plus he gets in

1270
01:07:09,160 --> 01:07:12,200
Speaker 1: incredibly consistent usage with at least fifteen carries in every

1271
01:07:12,200 --> 01:07:14,160
Speaker 1: game but one. You've got a start them, and you've

1272
01:07:14,160 --> 01:07:16,480
Speaker 1: got an A grade on Melvin Gordon. Even though the

1273
01:07:16,480 --> 01:07:20,440
Speaker 1: Broncos run defense has improved a lot, Remember when Austin

1274
01:07:20,480 --> 01:07:24,080
Speaker 1: Ekeler was a thing? Not anymore. We're old enough to

1275
01:07:24,120 --> 01:07:28,840
Speaker 1: remember that. Yeah, six rushing attempts over the last two weeks.

1276
01:07:28,880 --> 01:07:31,360
Speaker 1: That's it. And now you get a good run defense

1277
01:07:31,400 --> 01:07:34,680
Speaker 1: or improved run defense and Ekeler safely on the bench.

1278
01:07:36,200 --> 01:07:40,800
Speaker 1: Next matchup is the Oakland Raiders taking on the Arizona Cardinals. Brian,

1279
01:07:41,040 --> 01:07:44,200
Speaker 1: this is the NFL's worst run defense against the NFL's

1280
01:07:44,440 --> 01:07:47,600
Speaker 1: second worst run defense. Already gave Doug Martin as might

1281
01:07:47,680 --> 01:07:50,440
Speaker 1: take a chance on the runner. What other Raiders do

1282
01:07:50,520 --> 01:07:54,040
Speaker 1: you like? If any what other Raiders? Yeah? These are

1283
01:07:54,160 --> 01:07:56,919
Speaker 1: both bad teams on paper, but only one of these

1284
01:07:56,920 --> 01:08:00,840
Speaker 1: teams was sacked ten times by the forty Niners, so

1285
01:08:01,320 --> 01:08:03,640
Speaker 1: they're a way worse than the So I'd like the

1286
01:08:03,680 --> 01:08:05,960
Speaker 1: Cardinals in this game. Don't like a ton of raiders

1287
01:08:06,040 --> 01:08:08,800
Speaker 1: outside of a muscle Hamster. Let's start with Jared Cook,

1288
01:08:08,880 --> 01:08:11,320
Speaker 1: who uh hopefully you sold high on during his hot

1289
01:08:11,320 --> 01:08:13,920
Speaker 1: streak and acquired someone like Jeff Heierman or something like that,

1290
01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:16,679
Speaker 1: because he's been h pretty bad lately and it's gonna

1291
01:08:16,720 --> 01:08:19,200
Speaker 1: continue in this game. Tough matchup on paper for Cook.

1292
01:08:19,680 --> 01:08:22,400
Speaker 1: Cardinals were allowing only forty yards and under four catches

1293
01:08:22,400 --> 01:08:25,000
Speaker 1: per game to tight ends. George Kittle and Zach Ertz

1294
01:08:25,040 --> 01:08:27,680
Speaker 1: crap the bed by their standards against the Cardinals, so

1295
01:08:27,720 --> 01:08:30,360
Speaker 1: I'm not liking cooking this game. Just to see for him.

1296
01:08:30,400 --> 01:08:33,320
Speaker 1: Over the wide receivers, nothing to like hear outside of

1297
01:08:33,320 --> 01:08:35,599
Speaker 1: Seth Roberts might take a chance on the receiver George's

1298
01:08:36,960 --> 01:08:43,439
Speaker 1: Brandon Felt gets Patrick Pain Buddha Baker out. That's uh,

1299
01:08:43,560 --> 01:08:46,360
Speaker 1: bodes very well for Seth Roberts. Also bodes well for

1300
01:08:46,439 --> 01:08:49,000
Speaker 1: Jalen Richard, who I will he's not as good as

1301
01:08:49,040 --> 01:08:51,040
Speaker 1: play as Muscle Hamster as this week, but I say

1302
01:08:51,080 --> 01:08:53,880
Speaker 1: he's a PPR hail Mary Dart throw in this game

1303
01:08:53,920 --> 01:08:55,559
Speaker 1: for sure, but Derek Carr is still on your bench

1304
01:08:55,600 --> 01:08:58,560
Speaker 1: for Oakland, quickly over to Arizona. David Johnson easy a

1305
01:08:58,680 --> 01:09:01,679
Speaker 1: two three combo yards in the two games with Byron left,

1306
01:09:01,720 --> 01:09:04,280
Speaker 1: which as the o C the Raiders are allowing on

1307
01:09:04,760 --> 01:09:06,920
Speaker 1: seventy combo yards per game to opposing back, so you

1308
01:09:07,000 --> 01:09:09,320
Speaker 1: do the math there, ej is in a smash spot

1309
01:09:09,400 --> 01:09:11,519
Speaker 1: for that reason, Chase Edmonds was might take a chance

1310
01:09:11,560 --> 01:09:14,400
Speaker 1: on me running back over to the wide receivers. Give

1311
01:09:14,479 --> 01:09:17,559
Speaker 1: Larry Fitzgerald the b uh. He has also benefited from

1312
01:09:17,600 --> 01:09:25,439
Speaker 1: the left witch craft with nearly a thirty witchcraft with

1313
01:09:25,520 --> 01:09:29,360
Speaker 1: nearly a thirty percent target share with left, which by

1314
01:09:29,560 --> 01:09:34,000
Speaker 1: ronning the plays for Arizona, so which by n bye

1315
01:09:34,080 --> 01:09:37,720
Speaker 1: ronning left, which by n by running right. That was

1316
01:09:37,760 --> 01:09:43,720
Speaker 1: too much. That was well below snuff. It's gets to

1317
01:09:43,800 --> 01:09:46,120
Speaker 1: be for the Raiders. Wou allowed six wide receiver touchdowns

1318
01:09:46,120 --> 01:09:47,920
Speaker 1: in the last four games. But I still love Christian

1319
01:09:48,000 --> 01:09:50,200
Speaker 1: Kirk on the bench, love him long term. But just

1320
01:09:50,280 --> 01:09:52,439
Speaker 1: five catches so far in the left with left which

1321
01:09:52,479 --> 01:09:54,200
Speaker 1: era and I don't see the volume needed in this one.

1322
01:09:54,200 --> 01:09:56,960
Speaker 1: So he's on the bench. Ricky Seals Jones will give

1323
01:09:57,040 --> 01:09:58,960
Speaker 1: him a see though opposing tight ends have totaled six

1324
01:09:59,200 --> 01:10:01,840
Speaker 1: touchdowns on the Raiders last six games. Probably more they

1325
01:10:01,840 --> 01:10:03,720
Speaker 1: could be with the basically at the tight end. And

1326
01:10:03,760 --> 01:10:05,840
Speaker 1: then uh, Josh Rosen though still on the bench for me,

1327
01:10:06,240 --> 01:10:08,960
Speaker 1: all right, uh really I like to I think Josh

1328
01:10:09,080 --> 01:10:14,800
Speaker 1: Rosen's absolutely startable against the Raiders. Well and what yeah

1329
01:10:14,800 --> 01:10:17,840
Speaker 1: two quarterback leads? Yeah, I see great, I see. I

1330
01:10:17,960 --> 01:10:21,679
Speaker 1: never see grade on him anybody against the Raiders, any

1331
01:10:21,800 --> 01:10:25,160
Speaker 1: functional quarterback with two arms, you know, we only need

1332
01:10:25,200 --> 01:10:28,920
Speaker 1: one one armed, a non zero armed. You might not

1333
01:10:28,960 --> 01:10:31,320
Speaker 1: even need a quarterback? Is the problem to beat the Raiders?

1334
01:10:31,360 --> 01:10:34,120
Speaker 1: Now there is that. There's apic. That's a team that

1335
01:10:34,160 --> 01:10:36,439
Speaker 1: can't if they're going to stake out a big lead.

1336
01:10:36,920 --> 01:10:39,479
Speaker 1: Then I think Rosen's already got his two quarterback. He's viable.

1337
01:10:39,479 --> 01:10:41,960
Speaker 1: And uh, I think dart Throve for sure he has

1338
01:10:41,960 --> 01:10:44,240
Speaker 1: a DFS dart throw. I kind of I like that

1339
01:10:44,320 --> 01:10:46,320
Speaker 1: him and Christian Kirk is a df as a cheap

1340
01:10:46,400 --> 01:10:49,320
Speaker 1: DFS play. There's a little something there. I about je

1341
01:10:49,520 --> 01:10:53,400
Speaker 1: Edmonds instead, maybe when we come back the Sunday Night

1342
01:10:53,880 --> 01:10:57,040
Speaker 1: and the Monday night game, including the epic Monday Night

1343
01:10:57,120 --> 01:11:01,120
Speaker 1: game no longer in Mexico, city that won't stop having

1344
01:11:01,120 --> 01:11:04,559
Speaker 1: a fantasy fiesta, will it? Matt, Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah

1345
01:11:04,600 --> 01:11:08,200
Speaker 1: yeah yeah yea. When we come back. This is Fantasy

1348
01:11:27,600 --> 01:11:29,960
Speaker 1: Uh and that means lightning rounds coming. We because of

1349
01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:32,720
Speaker 1: the early start, we have two free phone lines right

1350
01:11:32,760 --> 01:11:35,519
Speaker 1: now where we normally do not, so encourage you to

1351
01:11:35,520 --> 01:11:37,639
Speaker 1: get queued up for that. We always start the final

1352
01:11:37,680 --> 01:11:41,720
Speaker 1: segment with premature speculation. These are players you want to

1353
01:11:41,760 --> 01:11:43,960
Speaker 1: pick up now that the rest of your rest of

1354
01:11:44,000 --> 01:11:46,560
Speaker 1: your league will try to pick up next week. And

1355
01:11:46,600 --> 01:11:50,960
Speaker 1: you already got him, Brian desperate for a win next week?

1356
01:11:51,160 --> 01:11:54,599
Speaker 1: Why don't you add Pierre Garzon who has the Tampa

1357
01:11:54,640 --> 01:11:58,599
Speaker 1: Bay Buccaneers on tap. Garson should be fully uh fully

1358
01:11:58,920 --> 01:12:01,720
Speaker 1: practicing this week. San Francisco is on there by. He

1359
01:12:01,840 --> 01:12:04,519
Speaker 1: hasn't been much of nothing this year, but uh, great

1360
01:12:04,560 --> 01:12:07,000
Speaker 1: matchup and you'll be viable play next week, all right.

1361
01:12:07,840 --> 01:12:10,720
Speaker 1: I got Ricky Seals Jones, who's twenty six percent own

1362
01:12:10,760 --> 01:12:13,080
Speaker 1: had five catches for fifty one yards last week as

1363
01:12:13,120 --> 01:12:15,880
Speaker 1: they started targeting him more since Byron left, which took

1364
01:12:15,880 --> 01:12:19,240
Speaker 1: over the offense rest of season schedule against the tight end,

1365
01:12:19,880 --> 01:12:24,520
Speaker 1: Oakland worst against the tight end, Chargers seventh worst. Packers

1366
01:12:24,640 --> 01:12:27,439
Speaker 1: they're the best against tight ends. But then in the

1367
01:12:27,479 --> 01:12:31,439
Speaker 1: fantasy playoffs Lions fifth worst, Atlanta tenth worst, and the

1368
01:12:31,520 --> 01:12:34,040
Speaker 1: Rams who have given up some super huge games to

1369
01:12:34,120 --> 01:12:36,439
Speaker 1: the tight end so far this season. So you could

1370
01:12:36,479 --> 01:12:38,800
Speaker 1: do worse than Ricky Seals Jones at your tight end slot.

1371
01:12:39,000 --> 01:12:41,200
Speaker 1: What if I told you there was a kicker available

1372
01:12:41,360 --> 01:12:44,719
Speaker 1: right now who has made one percent of his field

1373
01:12:44,760 --> 01:12:48,400
Speaker 1: goal attempts this year, plays for one of the best

1374
01:12:48,479 --> 01:12:54,280
Speaker 1: offenses in the NFL, will play six of seven games

1375
01:12:54,320 --> 01:12:57,400
Speaker 1: either indoors of this of the remaining games this year,

1376
01:12:57,520 --> 01:13:02,000
Speaker 1: six of seven or either indoors or warm weather outdoor games.

1377
01:13:02,000 --> 01:13:06,280
Speaker 1: He's got one cold weather game left. That's it. That's

1378
01:13:06,280 --> 01:13:07,920
Speaker 1: what I was going to say. What if I told you?

1379
01:13:08,200 --> 01:13:12,879
Speaker 1: What if I told you in a world where Matt

1380
01:13:13,000 --> 01:13:17,479
Speaker 1: Bryant is available in almost every league. He hasn't played

1381
01:13:17,479 --> 01:13:20,400
Speaker 1: since Week six because of a think growing injuries. I

1382
01:13:20,439 --> 01:13:22,479
Speaker 1: recall he is now back. He will kick for the

1383
01:13:22,479 --> 01:13:26,400
Speaker 1: Falcons for the first time in whatever six weeks, and

1384
01:13:26,560 --> 01:13:29,200
Speaker 1: because of that long layoff, he's available in almost every

1385
01:13:29,240 --> 01:13:31,280
Speaker 1: league you can get one of the best kickers and

1386
01:13:31,360 --> 01:13:33,960
Speaker 1: never have to sweat any of the any of the

1387
01:13:34,320 --> 01:13:38,679
Speaker 1: weather games except one. The rest of the way, Matt Bryant,

1388
01:13:39,000 --> 01:13:41,120
Speaker 1: all right, let's get our final two matchups in, beginning

1389
01:13:41,120 --> 01:13:45,519
Speaker 1: with the Vikings taking on the Chicago Bears, And for

1390
01:13:45,560 --> 01:13:49,439
Speaker 1: this one, it's UM, the game of which I feel

1391
01:13:49,439 --> 01:13:52,960
Speaker 1: pretty good about. The Vikings passing attack. Good quarterbacks like

1392
01:13:53,000 --> 01:13:55,679
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers and Russell Wilson and Tom Brady and Matthew

1393
01:13:55,720 --> 01:13:58,639
Speaker 1: Stafford are have hit the Bears pretty hard, averaging two

1394
01:13:59,040 --> 01:14:01,160
Speaker 1: seventy yards and two and a half touchdowns, and I

1395
01:14:01,160 --> 01:14:03,439
Speaker 1: think Kirk Cousins is right in that mix. And the

1396
01:14:03,560 --> 01:14:05,280
Speaker 1: only worry for you for me is that is whether

1397
01:14:05,320 --> 01:14:08,360
Speaker 1: the offensive line can hold up and stop kirk Cousins

1398
01:14:08,400 --> 01:14:12,000
Speaker 1: from UM. We'll make forced kirk Cousins into bad plays,

1399
01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:13,400
Speaker 1: and hopefully that will not be the case and he

1400
01:14:13,439 --> 01:14:16,160
Speaker 1: won't end up short circuiting a bunch of drives that way.

1401
01:14:16,280 --> 01:14:19,880
Speaker 1: I really like Stefan Diggs in this matchup, and here's why. First,

1402
01:14:19,880 --> 01:14:22,200
Speaker 1: he's played well against the Bears historically, has scored a

1403
01:14:22,240 --> 01:14:25,479
Speaker 1: touchdown in four or five career games against the Bears. Uh.

1404
01:14:25,479 --> 01:14:28,240
Speaker 1: And they Bears have got one really good outside corner,

1405
01:14:28,320 --> 01:14:31,080
Speaker 1: Kyle Fuller, but he only plays one side of the field.

1406
01:14:32,000 --> 01:14:33,960
Speaker 1: His snaps are on one side of the field. So

1407
01:14:34,120 --> 01:14:36,559
Speaker 1: we're just gonna hang the kwant treadwell out to dry

1408
01:14:36,560 --> 01:14:40,360
Speaker 1: on that side, and we'll put Diggs on Prince Amukamara

1409
01:14:40,360 --> 01:14:41,640
Speaker 1: on the other side of the field. And that is

1410
01:14:41,680 --> 01:14:44,479
Speaker 1: a winnable matchup for Stefan Diggs and a grade for Digs,

1411
01:14:44,479 --> 01:14:46,519
Speaker 1: a B grade for Cousins, and a B grade for

1412
01:14:46,560 --> 01:14:48,640
Speaker 1: Adam Theland in the slot because he matches up with

1413
01:14:48,680 --> 01:14:50,839
Speaker 1: one of the best slack corners in the league, Bryce Callahan,

1414
01:14:51,000 --> 01:14:54,479
Speaker 1: who has only allowed one touchdown into his coverage all year,

1415
01:14:54,920 --> 01:14:57,280
Speaker 1: and in the four games the Eland has played against

1416
01:14:57,280 --> 01:15:01,960
Speaker 1: the Bears is average game four exceptions thirty six yards

1417
01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:05,479
Speaker 1: and he's never scored against Chicago. So that's all that together,

1418
01:15:05,520 --> 01:15:07,160
Speaker 1: and I can only get to a B grade on

1419
01:15:07,200 --> 01:15:12,240
Speaker 1: Adam Feeling that's a snuff game right there for sure. Uh.

1420
01:15:12,320 --> 01:15:14,559
Speaker 1: Staying with the passing game, Kyle Rudolph just to see

1421
01:15:14,600 --> 01:15:17,559
Speaker 1: grade here, as he is now not scored or top

1422
01:15:17,720 --> 01:15:20,920
Speaker 1: forty one yards and five straight games, and I'm a

1423
01:15:20,960 --> 01:15:23,000
Speaker 1: little bit worried that he's gonna get stuck blocking and

1424
01:15:23,200 --> 01:15:25,240
Speaker 1: for a lot of this game as well. He did

1425
01:15:25,280 --> 01:15:28,280
Speaker 1: post six catches forty five yards and to score last

1426
01:15:28,360 --> 01:15:31,840
Speaker 1: year in Chicago. Though, Um so there's your ray of optimism.

1427
01:15:31,840 --> 01:15:33,719
Speaker 1: And the Bears have given up a tight end touchdown

1428
01:15:33,760 --> 01:15:35,479
Speaker 1: in five of the last eight games, so you've got

1429
01:15:35,880 --> 01:15:38,479
Speaker 1: a little bit of hope there as well. As we

1430
01:15:38,520 --> 01:15:41,920
Speaker 1: look at the rushing game. Everybody seems to believe and

1431
01:15:41,960 --> 01:15:43,920
Speaker 1: I do too, they're gonna try hard to get Dalvin

1432
01:15:43,920 --> 01:15:46,320
Speaker 1: Cook going in this one. In the four games he's

1433
01:15:46,320 --> 01:15:48,600
Speaker 1: played this year, he's topped one yards from scrimmage at

1434
01:15:48,600 --> 01:15:51,280
Speaker 1: all but one. And Chicago has only allowed one rushing

1435
01:15:51,320 --> 01:15:54,080
Speaker 1: touchdown to running backs, and they've allowed the fourth fewest

1436
01:15:54,160 --> 01:15:56,800
Speaker 1: rushing yards the position, and that I don't take that lightly,

1437
01:15:56,840 --> 01:16:00,360
Speaker 1: but I'll mention this. Over the last three games well,

1438
01:16:00,400 --> 01:16:03,360
Speaker 1: and this Chicago has allowed just two point seven yards

1439
01:16:03,360 --> 01:16:05,640
Speaker 1: per carry. Your glimmer hope, though, is that they have

1440
01:16:05,800 --> 01:16:08,680
Speaker 1: been gashed through the air by running backs, allowing the

1441
01:16:08,760 --> 01:16:12,080
Speaker 1: most receptions to runners over the last five weeks. So

1442
01:16:12,160 --> 01:16:14,439
Speaker 1: there's your angle with Dalvin Cook is through the air

1443
01:16:14,760 --> 01:16:16,920
Speaker 1: and they will throw to him copiously. I believe in

1444
01:16:16,960 --> 01:16:19,720
Speaker 1: this game. So that's your angle, and that's why I'm

1445
01:16:19,720 --> 01:16:21,880
Speaker 1: sticking with a B grade for Dalvin Cook. Without that,

1446
01:16:21,920 --> 01:16:24,320
Speaker 1: he would have been a C grade. Latavius Murray goes

1447
01:16:24,360 --> 01:16:26,360
Speaker 1: on the bench, you know you need touchdowns when when

1448
01:16:26,360 --> 01:16:29,240
Speaker 1: Cook is back, you need touchdowns from Murray. And that's

1449
01:16:29,280 --> 01:16:30,840
Speaker 1: tough to do against the team that's given up one

1450
01:16:30,920 --> 01:16:34,000
Speaker 1: rushing touchdown all year. Let's go to the bare side

1451
01:16:34,000 --> 01:16:39,280
Speaker 1: of this matchup from Mr Biscuit. He's been absolutely terrific

1452
01:16:39,360 --> 01:16:42,000
Speaker 1: ever since the Week four blow up game against the Bucks,

1453
01:16:42,240 --> 01:16:44,760
Speaker 1: in which he has put together such good stats that

1454
01:16:44,800 --> 01:16:48,320
Speaker 1: he's basically been rushing and receiving. He's basically basically been

1455
01:16:48,360 --> 01:16:51,519
Speaker 1: like starting Philip Rivers with a free patent Barber rolled

1456
01:16:51,520 --> 01:16:54,680
Speaker 1: into it. Because of the rushing numbers. Happy Trombone, I

1457
01:16:54,720 --> 01:16:59,599
Speaker 1: would say, I reckon, Well, I think you're right. It's

1458
01:16:59,640 --> 01:17:04,560
Speaker 1: happy trombone for Mits Troubinsky. Um, now here's where it

1459
01:17:04,560 --> 01:17:07,720
Speaker 1: gets tricky. I like the subtle Peyton Barber dig by

1460
01:17:07,720 --> 01:17:11,240
Speaker 1: the way, Peyton Barber is only good enough to be

1461
01:17:11,280 --> 01:17:17,000
Speaker 1: a outputsk is happy trombone in the fantasy industry, Yes

1462
01:17:17,080 --> 01:17:19,120
Speaker 1: he is. But it could come to an end here

1463
01:17:19,200 --> 01:17:21,679
Speaker 1: the Vikings. Other than the meltdown game to Jared Goff

1464
01:17:21,760 --> 01:17:24,559
Speaker 1: and the Rams, the Vikings are only allowing an average

1465
01:17:24,560 --> 01:17:28,479
Speaker 1: of two hundred thirty six passing yards and zero point

1466
01:17:28,560 --> 01:17:33,479
Speaker 1: eight passing touchdowns. That's crazy. The Vikings only allowed twelve

1467
01:17:33,640 --> 01:17:37,519
Speaker 1: rushing yards per game two quarterbacks, so I don't know

1468
01:17:37,560 --> 01:17:39,639
Speaker 1: that Robinsky is gonna have a lot of success there now.

1469
01:17:40,040 --> 01:17:43,360
Speaker 1: If Anthony Barr can't go, I think that could open

1470
01:17:43,439 --> 01:17:46,599
Speaker 1: up some running lanes um at the second level for

1471
01:17:46,760 --> 01:17:49,560
Speaker 1: Mitch Drabinsky. A B grade for Drobinsky. I thought you

1472
01:17:49,600 --> 01:17:51,200
Speaker 1: were going to get down to like a C grade

1473
01:17:51,200 --> 01:17:53,320
Speaker 1: and it was gonna be sad trombone Ski, I can't

1474
01:17:53,360 --> 01:17:58,080
Speaker 1: because he's been so dark good ever since week four.

1475
01:17:58,240 --> 01:18:00,760
Speaker 1: I can't go down to a C grade on Mitch Drabisky.

1476
01:18:01,120 --> 01:18:03,960
Speaker 1: Let's talk about his receivers. Allen Robinson likely gets xavier

1477
01:18:04,040 --> 01:18:07,120
Speaker 1: roads and a size versus size matchup, and Rhodes hasn't

1478
01:18:07,120 --> 01:18:09,920
Speaker 1: allowed to touchdown in his covered since Week two and

1479
01:18:10,240 --> 01:18:12,600
Speaker 1: since the Vikings again the debacle against the Rams, they

1480
01:18:12,640 --> 01:18:15,639
Speaker 1: haven't allowed a single wide receiver touchdown, which is amazing,

1481
01:18:15,640 --> 01:18:18,000
Speaker 1: and only three receivers are top fifty yards against the Vikings.

1482
01:18:18,040 --> 01:18:21,160
Speaker 1: It's their past defense has been really good, so Robinson

1483
01:18:21,200 --> 01:18:24,000
Speaker 1: only gets a C grade here. Taylor Gabriel is on

1484
01:18:24,040 --> 01:18:26,760
Speaker 1: the bench zero catches last week, and he likely gets

1485
01:18:26,760 --> 01:18:29,720
Speaker 1: Trey Waynes and his speed versus speed matchup. Waynes is

1486
01:18:29,760 --> 01:18:32,439
Speaker 1: only allowed uh touchdowns in his coverage in one game

1487
01:18:32,479 --> 01:18:34,120
Speaker 1: again the Rams game. Outside of that, he isn't given

1488
01:18:34,200 --> 01:18:37,640
Speaker 1: up any touchdowns any other receivers. Trey Burton and a

1489
01:18:37,840 --> 01:18:40,679
Speaker 1: grade for Trey Burton, although he has failed to top

1490
01:18:40,720 --> 01:18:43,160
Speaker 1: forty yards and four of his past five games, but

1491
01:18:43,240 --> 01:18:45,200
Speaker 1: he has found the end zone in five of the

1492
01:18:45,280 --> 01:18:48,200
Speaker 1: last eight. Vikings have struggled against tight ends all year.

1493
01:18:48,439 --> 01:18:51,280
Speaker 1: They've allowed at least sixty nine yards or a touchdown

1494
01:18:51,479 --> 01:18:54,920
Speaker 1: in six games. Now let's go to the running game.

1495
01:18:56,680 --> 01:18:59,880
Speaker 1: Tariko and gets a B grade. Vikings have been fantastic

1496
01:18:59,880 --> 01:19:02,240
Speaker 1: against the run, allowing just three point three yards per

1497
01:19:02,280 --> 01:19:04,320
Speaker 1: carry over the last five and only one running back

1498
01:19:04,320 --> 01:19:07,400
Speaker 1: all season is top sixty rushing yards against the Vikings,

1499
01:19:07,520 --> 01:19:09,559
Speaker 1: and so I can't trust Cohen on the ground, but

1500
01:19:10,040 --> 01:19:13,400
Speaker 1: through the air, I think he's got a chance. Vikings

1501
01:19:13,479 --> 01:19:16,360
Speaker 1: ranked twenty in running back receiving yards, and he leads

1502
01:19:16,360 --> 01:19:19,439
Speaker 1: the entire team and receptions at all positions. Tarik Cohen's

1503
01:19:19,439 --> 01:19:21,800
Speaker 1: are leading receiver, so he gets a B grade based

1504
01:19:21,840 --> 01:19:24,679
Speaker 1: on the reception prowess I see coming for Tarik Cohen,

1505
01:19:25,120 --> 01:19:27,639
Speaker 1: and just to see grade for Howard. You're really hoping

1506
01:19:27,680 --> 01:19:29,840
Speaker 1: for a rushing touchdown here and not much more. For

1507
01:19:29,880 --> 01:19:32,200
Speaker 1: the reasons I just mentioned. Vikings run defense has been

1508
01:19:32,280 --> 01:19:34,960
Speaker 1: very good. Howard chips in almost nothing through the air

1509
01:19:36,160 --> 01:19:41,080
Speaker 1: final matchup Kansas City taking on the rams. Start everybody.

1510
01:19:43,920 --> 01:19:46,920
Speaker 1: I apologize for all of this in advance. By the way,

1511
01:19:47,479 --> 01:19:50,400
Speaker 1: the Kansas City hef as and the Los Angeles Carneros

1512
01:19:50,800 --> 01:19:54,519
Speaker 1: said asta la vista to Estadio Azteca, and Bill will

1513
01:19:54,560 --> 01:19:58,360
Speaker 1: be uganda ing this partido in the Los Angeles Coliseo.

1514
01:19:59,520 --> 01:20:02,160
Speaker 1: The last I guess arriba bajo is sixty three and
