Hopefully everything is okay with She's doing 40 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 1: doing well now, not not thanks too much of to 41 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 1: my care, but just kind of keeps some eyes on Andy. 42 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 1: But he's doing he's doing all right, and I'm actually 43 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 1: one bright spot. I'm happy about that. So that's good. 44 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: All right, Well, that is that's absolutely good to hear. 45 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 1: All right, let's start our attention and bring in Adam 46 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 1: Ray joining us as he always does on a Wednesday. 47 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,920 Speaker 1: And I just have to ask you. You tweeted like 48 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 1: late last night that you were drinking coffee in the 49 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,640 Speaker 1: middle of the night, and so I want to know, Uh, 50 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:30,839 Speaker 1: did you actually sleep or you just still awake from 51 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 1: like midnight or whatever. No, I excuse me. I fell 52 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: asleep eventually, and it my my conjecture is that there 53 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,640 Speaker 1: was some decaf mixed in because I drink a lot 54 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 1: of coffee and I leave it all over the house 55 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 1: because I'll drink it room temperature or colder because I'm 56 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 1: a lunatic, and I don't know that the coffee I 57 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 1: was drinking could have been four days old, it could 58 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: have been from southern who knows. And so my wife's 59 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: conjecture is that it was decaf, because she's like, you're 60 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 1: gonna die if I don't make at least half of 61 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: these pots decaps. So she she makes is it in. 62 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 1: It's kind of a placebo effect thing. I don't care, 63 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 1: but I did get a little bit of rest and 64 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: I woke up and things have changed. But there's still 65 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 1: a lot going on. And if you see my eyes 66 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 1: darting around, I'm looking at a lot of different things. 67 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 1: But I'm trying to be it's committed. It's possible to 68 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: helping you win in week nine, I am. I'm sort 69 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,519 Speaker 1: of amused by the idea of you just having random 70 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 1: cups of coffee around the house, sort of like sort 71 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: of like water stations at marathon mile markers, Like we 72 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 1: look like I've got I got this mug, there's that, 73 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 1: there's I'm pretty sure there's coffee in here. Uh this, 74 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: hold on, what's this? Oh that's bourbon um. But we're good. 75 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: There was another coffee cup I had around here somewhere, 76 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 1: So I think we're good. Listen, this is normal, right, 77 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: like normal people behave this way, correct. You just you 78 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: do whatever works for you. So I'm not I'm not 79 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: totally mad at it um all right. The Cowboys, they 80 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: have been in dire straits pretty much ever since Dak 81 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: Prescott went down with that season in the injury. Last week, 82 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 1: they started being de Nucci. As we dive into fantasy 83 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: headlines here, they started being Denucci against the Eagles. That 84 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 1: wasn't great. Now Andy Dalton has been placed on the 85 00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: COVID nineteen reserve list, so we know that he is 86 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,839 Speaker 1: out for this week's game against the Steelers. It looks 87 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 1: like it maybe Cooper Rush been de Nucci, I guess 88 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 1: is still in the mix potentially to start. I know 89 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 1: that nobody is starting either one of those quarterback options. 90 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,440 Speaker 1: But the bigger question is does this mean it's time 91 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,280 Speaker 1: for us to sit all of our cowboys at least 92 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:33,359 Speaker 1: for this week? You know what, I don't want to 93 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 1: give it too much of a spoiler away for our 94 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,599 Speaker 1: start sits. We might be talking about Ceedee Lamb in 95 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: here a little bit later, or Michael Gallup and I 96 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,120 Speaker 1: took the cowards all right, are originally had taken the 97 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: cowards way off and saying like, you can't start, Ceedee Lamb, 98 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 1: you can't start Michael Gallup and as we because anticipating 99 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,919 Speaker 1: that Andy Dalton was gonna be able to return, But 100 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 1: once it came down to Denuch or Cooper, which is 101 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: like some Western Cooper and Denuch uh law law law 102 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 1: fighters or law of enforcers from the mid from Yuma 103 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,239 Speaker 1: in the eighteen hight whatever. Here's my thing with that, though, 104 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,039 Speaker 1: is I look at a Marie Cooper as somebody that 105 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:10,840 Speaker 1: I don't want to start this week. And it's not 106 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 1: I'm not trying to smirch Dnucci or anything like that. 107 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: You know, these these young quarterbacks can come into the 108 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,960 Speaker 1: league and make an impact. We've seen that with with 109 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 1: Gardner Minshew recently, Dicky Mullins does this kind of thing. 110 00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: C J. Bethard, guys that have they've done this. The 111 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,040 Speaker 1: problem that I have that I keep going back to 112 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 1: is the offensive line is that they're just not having 113 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:33,920 Speaker 1: enough time to do anything. And if you thought it 114 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 1: was bad last week going up against the Philadelphia Eagles, 115 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: they're playing the Pittsburgh Steelers. That's the thing that's given 116 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 1: me the most pause. If it was a I don't know, 117 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:45,040 Speaker 1: if it was any other team or an easier matchup, 118 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 1: I would feel a little bit more confident in it. 119 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,679 Speaker 1: But because it's the Steelers and they're great defensive front 120 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 1: that I'm like, I'm out, I'm out of everybody. I mean, 121 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,240 Speaker 1: Gazekiel Elliott I probably have to play, But like I 122 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:59,720 Speaker 1: don't want to play Mariy Cooper unless it's absolutely necessary. 123 00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure Cooper and the News was a buddy 124 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,039 Speaker 1: comedy starring Jeff Bridges and Clint the Eastwood. I think 125 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 1: that's I think that's where's yeah exactly, that's the one. Yes, Yes, 126 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,400 Speaker 1: I think so. I think that's it. Um. I would 127 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 1: say the only cowboy I have any mild confidences Ezekiel, 128 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 1: and even that is is extremely limited. I just feel 129 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: like throwing the ball downfield is going to be nearly impossible. 130 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 1: I worry about Amari Cooper. Michael Gallup has been pretty 131 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: much off the radar for most of the season anyway, 132 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: so I think he's an easy faith this week, you know, 133 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 1: ceedee Lamb. I guess if you are in a pinch, 134 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: I can understand maybe putting him in and hoping he 135 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: gets a few easy targets. But I think Ezekiel Elliott 136 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:42,839 Speaker 1: is kind of the only guy that I sort of 137 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:46,119 Speaker 1: believe in, and even that is pretty limited. I mean, uh, 138 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: you look at the top of most fantasy drafts and 139 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 1: it has been a aged disaster. Right Christian McCaffrey. I 140 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 1: know he's coming back to practice this week, but he's 141 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: been hurt for a long stretch. Sticklon Barkley's gone for 142 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:58,440 Speaker 1: the year, Michael Thomas has been out for a while, 143 00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 1: and now Zeke is struggling. So, uh, you haven't gotten 144 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,719 Speaker 1: times there Michael Thomas. I mean, yeah, he's been gone 145 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: for a while. I mean, look, if you said Alvin Kamara, 146 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 1: you feel great. Everybody else has has just left you 147 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 1: wanting more. So you know, I understand playing Zeke. I 148 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 1: I also understand not really being excited about it because, uh, 149 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 1: this is just a disaster now and it's gonna be 150 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 1: this way for for a while. I mean, do you 151 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 1: advocate trading any of these guys, because I feel like 152 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 1: if you try to trade any of these cowboys, you're 153 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 1: not gonna get much in return for them. Yeah, nobody 154 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 1: wants them. Like everybody everybody sees what's going on. They're like, 155 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 1: I don't want that. They just saw you, you know, 156 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 1: break your skateboard. You're not gonna be able to put 157 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: that on eBay and try to sell it to people. 158 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: Are like, I don't want that. I don't want to 159 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: spare parts and you're not gonna get the return. It's 160 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 1: almost but it is almost better. Like if you can 161 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 1: get anything for them, It's almost worth it, just so 162 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 1: you don't have these roster decisions every week, because that 163 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 1: is gonna be the most frustrating thing. And I know 164 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 1: as we started looking through our Twitter mentions, people are 165 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: asking about Ezekiel Elliott do you want to play? And 166 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 1: it's crazy to think about do I want to play 167 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott or do I want to play um Jamichael 168 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 1: McNasty or whoever. You know what I'm saying, Like, those 169 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: those are the those are the questions that I'm getting. 170 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 1: Do I want to start a Marii Cooper or Quintess 171 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: cepis Like I don't know, Like I thought about it 172 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 1: for a second, Like you might be onto something. Detroit's 173 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: got a better matchup. So this is the craziest thing, 174 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: is like if you could get rid of them, like 175 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 1: I don't want the decision. It goes back to like 176 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,680 Speaker 1: I got auto picked David Johnson and it's been the 177 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:36,199 Speaker 1: biggest and he keeps having great matchups and I can't 178 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 1: bench him, and I'm like, and then I had Christian 179 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,719 Speaker 1: McCaffrey on that team, so he was on IR so 180 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: I had to keep playing him, And I'm like, I 181 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,559 Speaker 1: just want this player off my roster. And just when 182 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,320 Speaker 1: I thought I was gonna be free and clear because 183 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 1: McCaffrey is coming back, and I'm like, okay, this is great. 184 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 1: I can get rid of David Johnson this week, and 185 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 1: then Myles Gaskin gets hurt. I'm like, I'm gonna have 186 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 1: to keep this guy. I can't. Can't rid of them. 187 00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 1: So I feel the same way with the Cowboys. If 188 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 1: I can get rid of them. I don't know when 189 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,440 Speaker 1: I when I trade Ezekiel Elliott for Rodrigo Blanket Ship 190 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:10,439 Speaker 1: right now? Maybe? So do you get a cool pair 191 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 1: of spects? Though? If you do that, That's why I 192 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 1: wear these specs. This is what I did. This is 193 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,680 Speaker 1: a This is always an homage to Rodrigo Blanket Ship, 194 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,199 Speaker 1: and because you like it so much, Like really, now 195 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 1: I think I have to take my contacts out because 196 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 1: now like to give everybody, I'm gonna open the curtain 197 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 1: a little bit. Like I do the P S A 198 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: s that you see each week. I filmed those Wednesday 199 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 1: before we do this show, and so I don't wear 200 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: glasses in that because I don't want the reflection this show. 201 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 1: I guess I don't care about but now it's become 202 00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 1: our thing, and it's like Marcus likes this so much 203 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:43,599 Speaker 1: because my wife's like, why are you still why do 204 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 1: you put your glasses back on them? Like Marcus likes it. 205 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna do it because he's my friend. I'm 206 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 1: gonna make them happy. I don't know, Listen, it's something 207 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 1: that makes Marcus smile for a moment, like I'm gonna 208 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 1: do it because I care. I truly, truly do appreciate that. 209 00:09:57,840 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: That's that's that's really wonderful. It does. It warms my 210 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 1: hard to hear that. Absolutely. Um, let's go down to 211 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:06,440 Speaker 1: Jacksonville where Gardner Minshew is not going to play this week. 212 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: He's dealing with some thumb issues that we just learned 213 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: about sort of after the fact. Uh. The Jaguars instead 214 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 1: are turned into Jake Lewton over Mike Glennon to start 215 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 1: against the Houston Texans, which I guess make sense, right, 216 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: we sort of know what Mike Glennon is. Let's see 217 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 1: what the young guy can do, so he would you 218 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: see what what happens when you throw him out there. 219 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 1: Plus it keeps the Pack twelve North pipeline going down 220 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 1: there in Jacksonville. We go from Washington State six Oregon State. 221 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: It is it's it's great, you know, like, as a 222 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 1: Pack twelve guy, I'm totally all about this. But the 223 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: question that becomes with Jake Luton there and we have 224 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: to show you Oregon State highlights because we don't have 225 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 1: any NFL highlights there. Um, how do we approach the 226 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: past catchers going this Jaguars offense with a new quarterback. Well, 227 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 1: before I say anything, I gotta tell you that facility, 228 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 1: Rezer Stadium in core Pallas is so gorgeous. Now. I 229 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 1: was there a number of years ago when Matt Moore 230 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: was the quarterback for Oregon said he was playing Joey 231 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,719 Speaker 1: Harrington in that game where they were Oregon State had 232 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 1: one loss, the Ducks were undefeated, and it was it 233 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,960 Speaker 1: was a fine stadium. But now it's gorgeous and nobody 234 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 1: cares about that. But here's my thing with Jake Luke. 235 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 1: This is different to me when you're talking about Benda 236 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 1: Nucci or Cooper Rush or anything like that. And I 237 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,559 Speaker 1: know that Jags don't have the best offensive line in 238 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,559 Speaker 1: the world, but they've got a solid running game. DJ 239 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:26,719 Speaker 1: Chark is a proven receiver. This is a good opportunity. Now, 240 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 1: obviously we're not gonna start Jake Luton unless you're in 241 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 1: a super flex league or you're in some sort of 242 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 1: situation I don't even want to know about. But I 243 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,120 Speaker 1: think that he can make those receivers effective. Like this 244 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 1: is one of the things where because the NFL has 245 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 1: evolved so much and the college game has evolved so much, 246 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 1: that these guys come into the league ready to throw 247 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 1: the football. I mean, Gardner Minshew was in the same 248 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 1: situation and he was a revelation. So I will not 249 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 1: dismiss Jake here. I think that he could go out there. 250 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 1: I have no hesitation in starting DJ Chart this week. 251 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:57,839 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be just as good as he 252 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: would have been with Gardner. To me, don't worry about it, 253 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 1: like it's fine, Like this is a completely different situation 254 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 1: from the Cowboys, because the Cowboys offensive line is miserable. 255 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 1: And not that the Jags are that great, but they're 256 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:13,440 Speaker 1: better than the Cowboys offensive line right now. So feel 257 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 1: confident with your periphery, your satellite players around Jake Lute. 258 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 1: My hope is that Luton comes in there and just 259 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 1: basically just goes yolo on it right, like, hey here 260 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 1: I am, I'm the backup. I'm a rookie. Nobody expects 261 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: much out of me. I wanted to go in there 262 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,960 Speaker 1: and just start slinging the ball down field, which would 263 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 1: be great news for DJ Chark, it would be good 264 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 1: news for for Keelan Cole and those guys there. So 265 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,679 Speaker 1: I'm sort of holding onto that that maybe that's that's 266 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 1: what's going to happen here, and it kind of keeps 267 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 1: those guys afloat because I think that's you know, that's 268 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 1: one thing we're just basically waiting on, right, We're just 269 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 1: we're just wanting to see if those periphery guys are 270 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 1: going to still be worthwhile. I think James Robinson you 271 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: can be fine with. I mean, he's running the football 272 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 1: so effectively this year that I'm not really concerned about him, 273 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 1: especially against this Texans defense. I just want to feel 274 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,760 Speaker 1: confident that Chark, that Cole, maybe that Leavisca Chenult still 275 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:04,360 Speaker 1: have a little bit of fantasy value. And I think 276 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,840 Speaker 1: a lot of it just depends on on on Jake 277 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 1: Luton just going out there and decided just go like 278 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 1: you know, straight Ryan Fitzpatrick on it and just slinging 279 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,559 Speaker 1: them rock all over the yards. So yeah, but it'll 280 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 1: be fun to watch. I mean, you look like, if 281 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 1: nothing else, they're gonna be intriguing right there. They're interesting. Yes, 282 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 1: And I think that one thing that we failed to 283 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:23,680 Speaker 1: mention too. They're going up against the Texans, which is 284 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,960 Speaker 1: completely different than going up against the Pittsburgh Steelers. I'm 285 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 1: so I should have I should have mentioned that off 286 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 1: the top two. That's another big thing too. So again, 287 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 1: I know a lot of times that when when people 288 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: will make jokes about it because I know a lot 289 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:37,680 Speaker 1: of people like I know you and I have seen 290 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,079 Speaker 1: Jake play, a lot of people haven't, and they always 291 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 1: like to act like, oh my god, like I'm gonna 292 00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,560 Speaker 1: stream the Texans defense. Don't don't do that. That's not 293 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 1: a good defense. And I'm telling you, this guy can 294 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 1: throw the football. So I'm pretty confident. I think this 295 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,080 Speaker 1: is gonna be fun. I'm actually like really looking forward 296 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,840 Speaker 1: to that game. Taxo after dark Man. There's so many 297 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 1: gyms that that that that most of the country didn't 298 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,080 Speaker 1: get to see that as the nerds out here on 299 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 1: the West Coast get to check count on a regular basis. 300 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 1: So we'll see you. We'll see the Jake Luton is 301 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,559 Speaker 1: the next big Pack twelve North kind of superstar that 302 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:07,920 Speaker 1: comes out of nowhere.

It's Stide 309 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 1: for Fast Connection, just presented by Verizon. We've got a 310 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:31,480 Speaker 1: handful of guy that could help you make the playoffs 311 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 1: in your fantasy leagues. We'll go through and we'll debate 312 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 1: each one whether or not that the guy you might 313 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 1: want to try to acquire before the trade deadline, or 314 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 1: whether or not you know he just is gonna be 315 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 1: just just a guy on your roster. So we'll start 316 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 1: with Carson Wentz, who I had big hopes for him 317 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: coming into the season. The start of the year was 318 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 1: pretty ugly. He sort of bounced back, but that game 319 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 1: on Sunday night against the Giants was not particularly pretty, 320 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 1: or actually against the Cowboys was not particularly pretty, but 321 00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:00,240 Speaker 1: the schedule is sort of favorable. So is is he 322 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 1: a guy that can be a hero for you in 323 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 1: this stretch? Rug he had a pair of touchdowns, Marcus, 324 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 1: how is that not great for you? I'm assuming he 325 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: had double digit points. Oh wait, I'm checking my notes. 326 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 1: He did not. Apologies for that. I do look at 327 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 1: this eagle, say, I like Carson Wentz. I do think 328 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 1: that he can be very good for you down the stretch. 329 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 1: I think one of the biggest keys is that they 330 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:24,479 Speaker 1: found a bona fide number one wide receiver with Travis Fulgum. 331 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 1: So I think he's a stud like that is just 332 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 1: a good player. So you're gonna have, You're gonna have. 333 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 1: So he's solid there. Jalen Reagor came back on Sunday. 334 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: He's gonna be fine. Like you don't need him to 335 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 1: carry this offense like we thought he was going to 336 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 1: need to do. And at some point Miles Sanders is 337 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 1: going to return as well. Their biggest issue, and I 338 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 1: know we're gonna talk about this with a lot of teams, 339 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 1: is on the offensive line. But I'm confident enough that 340 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 1: with capable weapons and Dallas Goddard got got healthy as 341 00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 1: well that they could eventually start making a little bit 342 00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 1: of a run here and they want ugly on Sunday night, 343 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 1: and you know, it doesn't it doesn't hurt. And look 344 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 1: at these matchups. I mean, that's Seahawks game. That's gonna 345 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 1: be ridiculous the Giants again. Did they play the Giants 346 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 1: like two weeks ago? What has happened this week? I listen, 347 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 1: I like Carson Wentz and as somebody who roots for 348 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:18,880 Speaker 1: the Bears, I would happily to take Carson Wentz on 349 00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 1: my my squad. So you know what, I I think 350 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 1: he's fine. I think people are overreacting. You're starting you're 351 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 1: sounding like Eagles fans, and I need you to knock 352 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: it off. I I'm on the side of Carson Wentz here. 353 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 1: And yeah, the the eight point six points he got 354 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 1: to the other night and not great. But weirdly, for 355 00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:41,160 Speaker 1: all the consternation over Carson Wentz, he's the QB nine 356 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 1: right now. I mean he's he legitimately is a top 357 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 1: ten quarterback. He's had some highs, he's had some lows, 358 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:49,240 Speaker 1: but things are getting better. You talk about you know, 359 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 1: the guys who were either there or are getting healthy 360 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 1: and coming back that's going to help. And on top 361 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 1: of just the the upcoming schedule, I look at his 362 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 1: playoff schedule. A week fourteen, he's got the Saints, who 363 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 1: have given up a ton of passing, and in week 364 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 1: six team he's got the Cowboys again, and I don't 365 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 1: expect that they're going to be significantly better than the 366 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 1: last time these two teams played. So I'm gonna sort 367 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,199 Speaker 1: of take what happened on Sunday night is a bit 368 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:12,400 Speaker 1: of a hiccup, and that by the time these two 369 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:14,719 Speaker 1: teams meet again in week sixteen, and everything's gonna be 370 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 1: better and Carson Wentz is gonna be the guy to 371 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 1: maybe help you win a championship. I mean, I know 372 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:21,879 Speaker 1: it's weird because for Eagles fans, you know, they're not 373 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 1: used to having Carson Wentz when it comes to a 374 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 1: playoff run. But for fantasy on sorry was that was? That? 375 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:32,920 Speaker 1: Was that too much of a but? But I think 376 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,719 Speaker 1: he can't be there for for your fantasy team. So, 377 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 1: speaking of your Chicago Bears, David Montgomery is getting more 378 00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,440 Speaker 1: work since Cohen went down with an injury. He's getting 379 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:47,200 Speaker 1: more targets. I know, the the running joke about him 380 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:49,919 Speaker 1: on Twitter on fantasy Twitters basically that like, if you 381 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,479 Speaker 1: need ten points, he'll get you ten. If you need twenty, 382 00:17:52,760 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 1: he'll get you ten. But the schedule, the schedule works 383 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:03,119 Speaker 1: out for him down the stretch. I mean, should we 384 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 1: be buying into him maybe being a playoff potential hero 385 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 1: for you. Let me put this in a couple of parts. 386 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:13,119 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say for fantasy purposes, no, he's dead. No, 387 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 1: just for the for the joke that you talked about. 388 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 1: I do want to say this though, David Montgomery is 389 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:20,679 Speaker 1: the best running back in the NFL. If you watch 390 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 1: his games, the amount of production he gets for the 391 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:29,399 Speaker 1: lack of blocking in front of him is truly incredible. 392 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 1: And you know, I was listening to UH. I won't 393 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:34,120 Speaker 1: see who it was, but I was listening to UH. 394 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 1: I was in the car, like believe it or not, 395 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 1: I was actually in a car and I was listening 396 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 1: to Serious XM. And these guys were dogging David Montgomery. 397 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 1: So you know it wasn't Brad Evans. So you can, 398 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 1: if you're gonna try to narrow this, I couldn't believe 399 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:49,919 Speaker 1: that these guys were dogging David Montgomery. I'm like, do 400 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 1: you even watch this, like he is under duress even 401 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:58,359 Speaker 1: before he gets the football. He has to make three 402 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 1: moves to get to thee in a scrimmage, and then 403 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,359 Speaker 1: he goes that. Look at that. I mean that should 404 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 1: have been tackled behind the line of scrimmage. Like we 405 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:07,879 Speaker 1: could go through a lot of this. He catches the 406 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,879 Speaker 1: ball well out of the backfield, and I know a 407 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 1: lot of people are are talking about the quarterback and 408 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 1: Nick Foles, and for whatever reason, Matt Naggie is the 409 00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,639 Speaker 1: one who gets vilified through all of this. But to 410 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:23,199 Speaker 1: me as as a close observer of the Chicago Bears, 411 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 1: it's the offensive line, and I feel bad and I 412 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:29,720 Speaker 1: feel bad that it's hurting everybody. This is a playoff team. 413 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:32,520 Speaker 1: If they could have gotten you know, and they've had 414 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:36,200 Speaker 1: injuries to like they have a COVID issue. They've got injuries. Now, 415 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 1: it's not anybody's fault, but they really need to invest 416 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:41,479 Speaker 1: in the offensive line during the off season. They need 417 00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 1: to find their Andrew Whitworth and it can turn it 418 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,160 Speaker 1: around in an off season, but it's not gonna help 419 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:48,879 Speaker 1: you for the rest of the year. I know that 420 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,959 Speaker 1: it was not Brad Evans dogging David Montgomery because if 421 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 1: you know anything about Brad, you know that he would barefoot. 422 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 1: He would walk barefoot over a pile of burning broken 423 00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 1: glass to defend David Montgomery. So I I know that 424 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: that that he was not the one, all right, So 425 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna look at this and maybe I 426 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 1: don't have the you know, the keen insight of a 427 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:11,520 Speaker 1: Bears fan who watches this regularly. But the matchups are 428 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:14,639 Speaker 1: certainly favorable, the usage rates are certainly favorable. I mean, 429 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 1: he's got two games against the Vikings defense and they're 430 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 1: not particularly good against the run. He gets to see 431 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 1: the Texans, he still gets to see the Lions. These 432 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 1: are teams with bad run defenses, and throwing the fact 433 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,919 Speaker 1: that he's getting more targets that is optimistic. Now, the 434 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 1: production part of it, maybe is is something that to 435 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 1: be desired. But I'm gonna say that that he can 436 00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 1: help you out just because I feel like so many 437 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:39,919 Speaker 1: of the stars are aligned, and maybe he just has 438 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:42,159 Speaker 1: a couple of really nice games in there. But I 439 00:20:42,200 --> 00:20:44,879 Speaker 1: also understand that I'm not the one who suffers and 440 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,800 Speaker 1: lives and dies with this offense on a weekly basis. 441 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,199 Speaker 1: And I know that Bears fans have a a completely 442 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: different perspective, and I respect that, I understand it. I'm 443 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,640 Speaker 1: just I'm coming at this as a this passionate outside observer, 444 00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 1: just sort of watching this team play. So I you 445 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 1: know what, I and you know what, I Am going 446 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 1: to call out the person who it was because I 447 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 1: think he's a friend of the show and we should 448 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 1: make an effort to get Jeff Ratcliffe on this show. Okay, 449 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 1: I will. I will confront him. That's who it was 450 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 1: a minute, like he's he's been on this show before. 451 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,919 Speaker 1: I shouldn't feel too ever, and I like Jeff like, 452 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,399 Speaker 1: don't get don't get it twisted. I'm not taking shots. 453 00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:21,879 Speaker 1: And I disagree with him on the issue of David Montgomery. 454 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:25,159 Speaker 1: He's very good. I like Jeff very good at what 455 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 1: he does. I disagree with him on David Montgomery. I 456 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: just wanted and just because it obviously wasn't Brad and 457 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:32,399 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, yeah, we can, but Jeff comes on 458 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 1: the show periodically, so to get him on and we 459 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:38,359 Speaker 1: will argue about this. And yet I have had the 460 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 1: good nature of disagreements over players both on and off 461 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 1: this show. So yeah, I'm sure he could stand up 462 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 1: to any questions. I'm sure he's fine. He's still uh 463 00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:51,720 Speaker 1: Jervis Landry, who is you know? Obviously, I guess the 464 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,760 Speaker 1: de facto number one receiver now. With Odell Beckham Jr. 465 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 1: Out for the rest of the year, the Browns have 466 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:59,920 Speaker 1: a pretty favorable wide receiver schedule for the rest of 467 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:02,879 Speaker 1: the season. I know they're passing game is sort of 468 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:04,919 Speaker 1: hit or miss, but do we have a level of 469 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:08,120 Speaker 1: confidence in Jarvis Landry for the end of the year. Well, 470 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,119 Speaker 1: I think that you you hit the nail right on 471 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 1: the head. Is that the passing situation wastion passing situation 472 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 1: is way too volatile. And this was a problem with 473 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: Odell Beckham Jr. Is that we had to come out 474 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:21,640 Speaker 1: and I never wanted to seem like I was dogging 475 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 1: O b J. Because he legitimately is one of my 476 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 1: favorite players in the league. I love Jarvis a lot too. 477 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,399 Speaker 1: It goes back to the n c A, the e 478 00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 1: A Sports n c A football game, because the final 479 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:35,440 Speaker 1: year they made it was that juggernaut l s U 480 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,919 Speaker 1: team which might have been better than the team that 481 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 1: wanted up. While their quarterback wasn't as good, but they 482 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,399 Speaker 1: had Jarvis Landry. They had oh b J. They had 483 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,719 Speaker 1: Jeremy Hill, they had other they had another study, Alfred 484 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 1: Blue I think was on that team. They had a 485 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 1: bunch of studs on it. So I'm a huge fan. 486 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 1: But again, I I really appreciate what the Browns are doing. 487 00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 1: I think Kevin Stefanski has done wonders with that team, 488 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 1: and I think that they're very efficient, They're very good, 489 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,960 Speaker 1: and they're they're a fun team to watch. But you 490 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,360 Speaker 1: know what, for fantasy, it's not always gonna work out 491 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:10,120 Speaker 1: in our favorite I say this as somebody who started 492 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 1: cream Hunt last week, and I'm still a little upset 493 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 1: about how how you didn't take advantage of the Raiders 494 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 1: run defense. But that's a story for another day. But 495 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 1: there are some matchups and we're looking at him right now. 496 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 1: The Houston. You're gonna start him against them, You're gonna 497 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:24,640 Speaker 1: start him against the Titans. He I I don't say 498 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:27,160 Speaker 1: that he's a league winner, but he's a guy who 499 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 1: could win you certain weeks, and I think he's a 500 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 1: valuable commodity. I wouldn't let him go, but I don't 501 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 1: think that he's the guy that every week you need 502 00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 1: to get him into your life. Is not like Tyler Boyd, 503 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:39,360 Speaker 1: like I think Tyler Boyd, I think, you know, I don't. 504 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,359 Speaker 1: I don't know if they're comparable, but I think like 505 00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:43,240 Speaker 1: Tyler Boyd is a guy like that's the guy you 506 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 1: gotta start every week. Jarvis Landry is like, I'm picking 507 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,240 Speaker 1: my spots. Jacksonville is probably another great matchup as well. 508 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:50,920 Speaker 1: So I don't know. Maybe I'm I'll talk myself into 509 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:54,320 Speaker 1: it if you give me enough time. No, I think 510 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:56,479 Speaker 1: you're I think you're pretty spot on with it. I 511 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:59,120 Speaker 1: think you're right. Jarvis is story of the matchup based guy. 512 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 1: He is one of those guys as me as somebody 513 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 1: who is an opponent of the idea of PPR, at 514 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 1: least full point PPR. Jarvis Landry for a long time 515 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:10,720 Speaker 1: has been he has been the poster child for for 516 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:13,320 Speaker 1: my descent there, right, because I mean he was. He 517 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:14,840 Speaker 1: was the king of the guys who would get you 518 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,479 Speaker 1: like ninety catches for like eight hundred yards and you're like, 519 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 1: this is not objectively a great season, but he's having 520 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:23,760 Speaker 1: good PPR numbers and it's frustrating. The other part that 521 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 1: frustrates me with It's not Jarvis's fault, but this is 522 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,359 Speaker 1: a team that wants to run the football. I know 523 00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 1: they didn't do it particularly well last week against the Raiders, 524 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 1: but that's what they want to do. And Nick Chubb 525 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 1: is going to be back very soon, potentially this week 526 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:39,399 Speaker 1: so or actually I guess, but next week they're on 527 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 1: a by right, so it will be after the bye 528 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:43,719 Speaker 1: that Nick Chubb is gonna come back and play. So 529 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:46,439 Speaker 1: that means they're gonna go back to primarily trying to 530 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 1: run the football. They will throw it when they have to, 531 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 1: So I just think that Landry's opportunities will be lessened. 532 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 1: So I'm sort of with you that I think you 533 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:56,520 Speaker 1: pick and choose your spots, but he's not necessarily gonna 534 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:58,160 Speaker 1: be that guy that you look back on. You're like, man, 535 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 1: he he really led me into and through the playoffs. 536 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,199 Speaker 1: I just I just don't think the Brown's offense has 537 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:06,920 Speaker 1: sort of built that way. Uh. Last one is Evan Ingram, 538 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 1: who a couple of weeks ago I think we were 539 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:10,159 Speaker 1: all ready to just sort of give up the ghost 540 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:13,399 Speaker 1: on and then he actually had a pretty decent game 541 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 1: on Monday Night against the Buccaneers. Even though that the 542 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:19,720 Speaker 1: Giants lost, Ingram played fairly well. He finally made that 543 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:21,879 Speaker 1: over the shoulder catch that Giants fans wanted him to 544 00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:25,919 Speaker 1: make a couple of weeks previous. So yeah, that you 545 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 1: have a again, a fairly favorable tight end schedule for him. 546 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:31,639 Speaker 1: The rest of the way, is that enough to have 547 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 1: us buy back in for these final weeks of the 548 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:36,639 Speaker 1: regular season? And now when we fly the cry on, 549 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:39,240 Speaker 1: it's gonna say no. And that's fine because I don't 550 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 1: think that he's gonna be a Travis Kelsey like player 551 00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:44,400 Speaker 1: who week in a week out we're gonna be able 552 00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 1: to trust and he's gonna come through for us. But 553 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 1: we're starting to see a little bit. We're starting to 554 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 1: see some breakthroughs that, as you mentioned, he made a 555 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 1: throw or he made a catch that he didn't make 556 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,439 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago. That's encouraging. We also we 557 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 1: also see that this Giants team doesn't quit like that 558 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 1: is the one thing that and I know, I know 559 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 1: I saw this on Twitter. I'm so sorry. I would 560 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 1: say who it was, but I forgot who it was. 561 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 1: Maybe it was Jason Hartilius who pointed this out. Our 562 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,880 Speaker 1: producer on Good Morning Football Weekend about how we were 563 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,160 Speaker 1: not quite sure about Daniel Jones and what he's gonna 564 00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:20,439 Speaker 1: be able to do. But it feels like this team 565 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 1: really believes in Joe Judge and they're playing hard. They're 566 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 1: playing well defensively, they're playing well at times offensively too, 567 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 1: So I'm encouraged. I think that I'm gonna keep If 568 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:32,560 Speaker 1: you have Evan Ingram on any of your teams, I'm 569 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:35,119 Speaker 1: gonna keep them because I think it's better than trying 570 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,119 Speaker 1: to each week figure out. Is this gonna be a 571 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 1: week that Trey Burton runs into touchdown? Logan Thomas breakout 572 00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: this week? What do we do with Johnny Smith? I 573 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:44,439 Speaker 1: think if you have Evan Ingram, you just gotta kind 574 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 1: of you just gotta play it out and realize that 575 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 1: the tight end position is probably not gonna win it 576 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 1: for you, but he should be good enough that he 577 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:55,160 Speaker 1: doesn't lose it for you. That is probably the smart 578 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 1: way to look at it. Um. I guess I just 579 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,119 Speaker 1: I've lost faith. But but I'm with you when I 580 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,040 Speaker 1: look at the rest of the tight end situation, because 581 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 1: you know, we all get questions, what am I gonna 582 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,399 Speaker 1: do it tied end, and especially this week now that 583 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: George Chittle is out presumably for the rest of the year. Uh, 584 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 1: gonna a lot of questions about what to do about 585 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 1: tight end. And I guess if you have Evan Ingram 586 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:18,399 Speaker 1: and you know he's gonna get consistent snaps and consistent targets, 587 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:20,920 Speaker 1: that makes it hard to sort of pivot away from him. 588 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,399 Speaker 1: I am not sold that he's gonna have this great 589 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,159 Speaker 1: awakening over the next month that is gonna somehow, you know, 590 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 1: make you feel better about what's happened for the first 591 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:32,400 Speaker 1: two months of the season. But um, you could do 592 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 1: you could be doing worse. You could really be streaming 593 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,160 Speaker 1: off the waiver wire. You could be trying to figure 594 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:39,879 Speaker 1: out if you know, mo Aley Cox somehow gets an 595 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 1: end zone target this week, or you know whatever. So yeah, 596 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:47,200 Speaker 1: it's it's a situation where I'm not really jazzed about 597 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 1: Evan Ingram, But uh, you know what, you're You're your 598 00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:52,359 Speaker 1: a lot in your fantasy life. Could be a whole 599 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:54,560 Speaker 1: lot worse off at the tight end position than a 600 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 1: guy that you know is gonna, you know, be locked 601 00:27:56,560 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 1: in for probably five to seven targets a game. So yeah, 602 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:04,159 Speaker 1: I mean, like he's gonna be the libracy or excuse me, 603 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 1: the tight end eight every week trying to preview this 604 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 1: week's Thursday night football game between the Green Bay Packers 605 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 1: in the San Francisco Forty Niners. I guess one really 606 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 1: big disclaimer and this came down as of Wednesday morning. 607 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 1: The forty Niners had to shut down their facility on 608 00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 1: Wednesday because they had a player, Kendrick Borne, test positive 609 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 1: for COVID nineteen. He is not symptomatic at least as 610 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:28,879 Speaker 1: of the time of the reporting. He is isolating, but 611 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:33,520 Speaker 1: the Niners not working together. They're probably working remotely on Wednesday. 612 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,640 Speaker 1: As of now, the Thursday night football game is scheduled 613 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 1: to go on on the same At the same time, 614 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 1: the Packers have had their own COVID situations where they 615 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: are going to be down a couple of running backs 616 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 1: because a j Dillon Jamal Williams both not available, throwing 617 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 1: the fact that Aaron Jones is still dealing with some 618 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 1: injury issues as well. So, uh, sort of a lot 619 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 1: to unpack here, But what we can tell you is 620 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,720 Speaker 1: that if this game does play, which it is scheduled to, 621 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 1: Tyler Irvin's Dexter Williams are the guys who are expected 622 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 1: to be in the backfield for the Green Bay Packers. 623 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,560 Speaker 1: So right, do you trust starting either one of those 624 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 1: guys this week against the forty Niners. You know what, 625 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: I would probably have to avoid either one of these players. 626 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 1: I know the forty Niners have some injury issues, but 627 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 1: that defense is still pretty good, so I'm gonna avoid it. 628 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 1: It's interesting, and we were talking about this before we 629 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 1: we returned from our break. Dexter Williams obviously played a 630 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 1: Notre Dame. We're familiar with him or whatever, but where 631 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 1: Rank really makes his money is typically when we start 632 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 1: talking about these players who play it in the Mountain 633 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:41,400 Speaker 1: West for the whack or anything like that. I can 634 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 1: usually come in and be like, I saw this guy play. 635 00:29:43,560 --> 00:29:46,440 Speaker 1: I love watching college football late on a Saturday night. 636 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 1: I've seen this guy play. And Tyler Ervin's unfortunately doesn't 637 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 1: like I don't have a memory of like we'll see guys. 638 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:55,760 Speaker 1: I'll be like, oh, yeah, I remember this game against 639 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,240 Speaker 1: you and LV he did this I like him, or 640 00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 1: he did this against b y U. I don't have 641 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 1: that with Tyler Irvans and I apologized to him and 642 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 1: his family. This is listen. I I feel like I've 643 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 1: let you down and I wish I had a better 644 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 1: read on Tyler Urbans. This is usually when I can 645 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 1: come through for you and do this, But I just 646 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:12,560 Speaker 1: want to be completely trained. I get to here and 647 00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 1: lie to you, but I'm not gonna do that. I'm 648 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 1: gonna be transparent as possible. I don't have a great 649 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:19,600 Speaker 1: read on Tyler Irvan, so I'm gonna probably avoid it. 650 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 1: The one thing, and I know this probably leads us 651 00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 1: into a different discussion. Robert Tonyan might end up benefiting 652 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 1: from this because Aaron Rodgers likes to target running backs 653 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 1: when he gets to the goal light, in addition to 654 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 1: Davante Adams obviously, so I think that perhaps he could 655 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,000 Speaker 1: get a red soung like I'm I'm saying, this is 656 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 1: somebody who has a lot of shares of Robert Tonyan 657 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 1: some other things like can we give him like Aaron Rodgers, 658 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 1: I was defending you this week when you guys didn't 659 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 1: make a trade for Will Fuller. Just remember that Robert 660 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 1: Tony in this week. That's all I'm saying. That's what 661 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 1: I'll leave it there. I'll leave that there for you. 662 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 1: I can, but I can buy into Robert Tony in 663 00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 1: getting some extra targets this week. I mean, for a 664 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 1: number of reasons, of which we'll we'll talk about in 665 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 1: a bit. As for the running backs, I'm with you. 666 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 1: I think you just sort of stay away from him. 667 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:07,000 Speaker 1: I think this is the benefit of this game being 668 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 1: played on Thursday, right, Like, if if it were a 669 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 1: Sunday night or a Monday game and you were having 670 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 1: running back questions, then I guess you you consider those 671 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:18,880 Speaker 1: guys as a very last resort. But having me on Thursday, 672 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 1: you usually have plenty of other options to go and 673 00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 1: try to fill that running back spot or the flex 674 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 1: spot if you need to, So I don't feel any 675 00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 1: need to try and shoehorn those guys in, uh you know, 676 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 1: a situation where neither one of them has really gotten 677 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 1: a whole lot of snaps. In fact, I think I 678 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:35,959 Speaker 1: believe it's Dexter Williams. Most of his snaps have come 679 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 1: as a wide receiver, I think this year. So um yeah, 680 00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:41,200 Speaker 1: this is not one that I would even I would 681 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 1: even bother to mess around with. So you can sort 682 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 1: of let this one just walk on by, and you 683 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,080 Speaker 1: hope that, uh you know, for the following weeks that 684 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,480 Speaker 1: you know, hopefully hopefully everything is fine with A. J. 685 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:55,960 Speaker 1: Dillon and and U Jamal Williams just from a human standpoint, Uh, 686 00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:59,080 Speaker 1: And then Aaron Jones gets healthy. Leave the Packer running 687 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 1: backs alone and we'll try again in the future. As 688 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 1: a wide receiver, we know Davante Adams is going to 689 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 1: get targets. And actually, with this game being in Santa Clara, Uh, 690 00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 1: he's sort of it's sort of a homecoming because he's 691 00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 1: from just down the road in Palo Alto, not that 692 00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 1: far away. We know he's gonna get his targets. Are 693 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 1: there any other Packers wide receivers you would consider in 694 00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 1: this one? But is he really from Palo Alto? How 695 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,480 Speaker 1: did he end up at Fresno State and not Stanford? 696 00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 1: What is going on? Alto? Yeah? How did you let 697 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 1: this happen? David Shaw? Like that seems unusual? Like David 698 00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 1: Shaw is a great recruiter, He's a great coach. In 699 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 1: any event, I don't like any of them. No, I'm 700 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 1: not telling no, I'm not going for any other Packers 701 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 1: receiver because Aaron Rodgers does not look at any other 702 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:47,840 Speaker 1: Packers receiver. I mean, it's just ridiculous the amount of 703 00:32:47,880 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 1: production and targets the Davante Adam skits. I mean, it's cool, 704 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 1: like it's not. It would be worse if it was 705 00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:58,120 Speaker 1: a situation like the Seahawks, where Russell Wilson is, you know, 706 00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:00,480 Speaker 1: trying to figure out which receiver he's to feed the 707 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 1: ball to every week, and he only picks one and 708 00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:06,880 Speaker 1: rolls with it. We have no such issue with Aaron Rodgers. 709 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 1: So I appreciate the fact that he's only going for 710 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 1: Davante Adams. Everybody else is too risky. And again going 711 00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:14,480 Speaker 1: back to the whole thing, Robert Touny in if you're 712 00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 1: looking at pass catchers, that's the only other guy I 713 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:21,000 Speaker 1: would consider in this situation. I just have to say 714 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 1: for the record that I'm completely washing my hands of 715 00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:27,280 Speaker 1: Marquez Valdes Scantling. At the start of the year, we 716 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 1: were having that debate about you know, if you're picking 717 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:32,120 Speaker 1: another wide receiver, is it is it m VS? Is 718 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 1: it Alan Lazard. I will say that I was totally 719 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:36,680 Speaker 1: wrong because it was the Lazard king that was the 720 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 1: appropriate answer for the one week or two that being viable. Uh. 721 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 1: And I know that Packer fans are like saying, you know, 722 00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:45,600 Speaker 1: wait till Alan Lazard gets back, and I'm like, yeah, okay, 723 00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:48,760 Speaker 1: sure whatever, I'm out. If it's not Davante Adams, and 724 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:50,320 Speaker 1: I just don't want any part of it. At the 725 00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:52,840 Speaker 1: wide receiver spot. I can make a case for Robert 726 00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:55,880 Speaker 1: touny in, but that's pretty much it. Aaron Rodgers has 727 00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:57,760 Speaker 1: he has his guy. He's he's got his guy that 728 00:33:57,800 --> 00:34:00,880 Speaker 1: he loves and he's going to pepper him with eleven 729 00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 1: d billion targets and uh and everybody else is just 730 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:06,440 Speaker 1: sort of playing for whatever is left over. So yeah, 731 00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 1: there you go. Um one thing, we know that the 732 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:11,759 Speaker 1: Packer run defense is not very good. It hasn't been 733 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:14,720 Speaker 1: good all year. It wasn't good last year. The Niners 734 00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 1: ran them over in the NFC Championship Game. But they 735 00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 1: won't have whe Hee. Most they will have Ja Michael 736 00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:21,880 Speaker 1: Hasty and Jerick McKinnon though. So if you had to 737 00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:24,600 Speaker 1: pick between them, which one are you going with? I'm 738 00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:26,920 Speaker 1: gonna go with Jamichael Hasty. And I know that I 739 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 1: botched his name earlier. I apologize. It's been a late night. 740 00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:35,000 Speaker 1: There's a lot going on in the world. I I apologize, 741 00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:38,880 Speaker 1: but I really like Jamichael Haysy And I know that 742 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:41,000 Speaker 1: a lot of people, maybe not a lot of people, 743 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 1: there's a number of people who have called him mini 744 00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:45,880 Speaker 1: Marshawn Lynch, and I would like you to stop that 745 00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:48,920 Speaker 1: because don't put the pressure on the young man. That's 746 00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 1: that's a very Marshawn Lynch is one of the best 747 00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 1: players in NFL history, so let's let's pump the brakes 748 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:57,640 Speaker 1: a little bit. But I really like his game. And 749 00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:00,760 Speaker 1: this is where I wish Kyle Shanahan was a normal 750 00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:03,560 Speaker 1: coach who was like, oh, I found a running back 751 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 1: who's really good. My schemes are amazing. I'm gonna go 752 00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:09,800 Speaker 1: with that one guy. But no, he wants to spread 753 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:13,160 Speaker 1: the wealth. He wants to break in Derrek McKinnon. If 754 00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:15,960 Speaker 1: Tevin Coleman is in uniform, he's on the field for 755 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:20,120 Speaker 1: whatever reason. I just need more Ja Michael Hasty in 756 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 1: my life because I really do believe that he could 757 00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 1: be a breakthrough candidate. We're just I just wanted to 758 00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:27,600 Speaker 1: I want to see him like, I want that to happen. 759 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:31,080 Speaker 1: But if I'm if I'm picking, if I'm choosing the 760 00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:34,120 Speaker 1: running back I want to get behind, it would be him. 761 00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:38,919 Speaker 1: I'm I'm with you on Ja Michael Hasty. I don't 762 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,640 Speaker 1: I don't wish injury upon anybody, but Tevin Coleman being 763 00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:44,759 Speaker 1: hurt sort of saves Kyle Shanahan from himself because for 764 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 1: whatever reason, he has this weird love affair with Tevin Coleman, 765 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:52,239 Speaker 1: despite Coleman being easily the least effective of all the 766 00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:56,359 Speaker 1: forty Niners backs there. Uh and look, Jerick McKinnon. I 767 00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:58,480 Speaker 1: like what he does, but he only seems to be 768 00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:02,480 Speaker 1: effective in small stretches. Know, the Niners have complained the 769 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:06,480 Speaker 1: or have warned that he's been kind of uh tired legs. 770 00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:08,960 Speaker 1: I think there was a phrase dead legs with the 771 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 1: phrase that they were using recently, So that means he's 772 00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,480 Speaker 1: not going to get that sort of workload. And let's 773 00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:16,799 Speaker 1: be honest, the Niners need playmakers, right. I mean they're 774 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,839 Speaker 1: down there starting quarterback. They're not gonna have their their 775 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:22,799 Speaker 1: old world tight end. Uh. They're running back one where 776 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,160 Speaker 1: he mosted is still on injured reserve. They're running back 777 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 1: to and Tevin Coleman is hurt, so they need somebody 778 00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:30,280 Speaker 1: who can do something for them. I have my doubts 779 00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 1: about Brandon Aiyuk because you know, the packer wider, because 780 00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:36,319 Speaker 1: it's packer secondary is pretty good. So I do think 781 00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:39,200 Speaker 1: there's gonna be a lot of Ja Michael Hasty. Uh, 782 00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:41,800 Speaker 1: speaking of Brandon Aiyuk, I mean, I guess you consider 783 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:45,239 Speaker 1: starting him because he's probably gonna get the most targets. Uh. 784 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 1: Is that it? Though? When it comes to pass catchers, 785 00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:50,239 Speaker 1: anybody else that gets a look in that Niner offense, Well, 786 00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:53,680 Speaker 1: I'm wondering if he gets covered by j R. Alexander, 787 00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:57,239 Speaker 1: who's been shutting down everybody when given the opportunity. That 788 00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:58,719 Speaker 1: is one of the things that scares me. And I 789 00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:03,400 Speaker 1: don't want to sit here and talk down about Nicky 790 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:05,720 Speaker 1: Mullins because we've seen him come in and play well 791 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:09,400 Speaker 1: in spots. So yeah, this is a tough situation. Like 792 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:12,000 Speaker 1: I'm really worried about Brandon himself. I'm going up against 793 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 1: him in my League of records. I'm trying to breathe 794 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:16,880 Speaker 1: this into existence. If I'm looking at a pass catcher, 795 00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:18,840 Speaker 1: the guy that I would probably go with, this ross 796 00:37:18,920 --> 00:37:22,640 Speaker 1: dwelling Nicky Mullins targets his tight ends, which is easy 797 00:37:22,680 --> 00:37:24,759 Speaker 1: to do when you have George Kittle. But we saw 798 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,160 Speaker 1: last week they had a nice connection in that game 799 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:29,520 Speaker 1: against the Seahawks. The Seahawks the team that actually plays 800 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:33,040 Speaker 1: pretty well against the tight end position, So Ross Dwelling 801 00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:36,080 Speaker 1: is probably somebody that I'm looking at, probably more for DFS, 802 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:39,279 Speaker 1: because when you're setting your DFS lineups, you're gonna want 803 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:43,759 Speaker 1: to take one of those Packers running backs, Jamichael Hasty. 804 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:47,520 Speaker 1: Who else, Davante Adams, Aaron Rodgers, Stackham. But I think 805 00:37:47,560 --> 00:37:49,719 Speaker 1: Ross Dwelling is the guy that I would absolutely be 806 00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 1: looking at. I would have said Kindrick Borne, but uh, 807 00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:56,200 Speaker 1: he tested positive for COVID nineteen, so he is not 808 00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:58,000 Speaker 1: going to be available. I mean he would have been 809 00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:00,960 Speaker 1: the other wide receiver out there. I mean the Niers 810 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,359 Speaker 1: are shorthanded there because Dee Bou Samuel is hurt. They 811 00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:08,000 Speaker 1: cut Dante Pettis on Tuesday, so they're really shorthanded at 812 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:10,279 Speaker 1: the position, and with Au as you mentioned, likely to 813 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:14,479 Speaker 1: tangle with Jaar Alexander. It's just it's a bad situation. So, UM, 814 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:16,400 Speaker 1: you know, for me, it's it's I you canna pinch? 815 00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:19,279 Speaker 1: And after that, I guess I'm I'm sort of a way. 816 00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:22,400 Speaker 1: I know there's talk that Jordan's Reid might be available. 817 00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 1: I don't know if he's been activated off injured reserve 818 00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:28,240 Speaker 1: just yet. Um, I guess that in a in a pinch, 819 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 1: if you really want to be contrarian or really want 820 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:32,920 Speaker 1: to be yolo about it in your DFS line, it's 821 00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:35,120 Speaker 1: I guess you can consider Jordan read but I don't 822 00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:36,839 Speaker 1: know how excited. I don't hate that. I don't hate 823 00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 1: that at all. Alright, alright, cool, Well then I've I've 824 00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:42,160 Speaker 1: talked myself into into that. Yeah, that's good. That was good. 825 00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:44,640 Speaker 1: I didn't know I listen. I wanted to give Dwell 826 00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:46,840 Speaker 1: a little bit of love. But yeah, if Reid returns, 827 00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:50,000 Speaker 1: we've seen him played pretty well when he gets an 828 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:52,120 Speaker 1: opportunity with this team, they know how to use him. 829 00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:54,680 Speaker 1: So yeah, if he's active like that's a fun play. 830 00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:56,560 Speaker 1: And that's probably a sneaky one too, because a lot 831 00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:58,399 Speaker 1: of people probably aren't keeping an eye on it as 832 00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:01,440 Speaker 1: closely as we are. It's for Secure Starts presented by 833 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:04,800 Speaker 1: Visa for Peace of Mind Online Visas got You covered, 834 00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:07,319 Speaker 1: As we always do this time of the show. Adam 835 00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:09,960 Speaker 1: Rank has his Week nine starts and sits, so we 836 00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:12,840 Speaker 1: will start to the good and which quarterbacks that should 837 00:39:12,840 --> 00:39:15,640 Speaker 1: folks be starting this week? Well, let's start with Lamar 838 00:39:15,719 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 1: Jackson because I know we're getting a lot of questions 839 00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:19,439 Speaker 1: about him and I have him as a start this week, 840 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 1: going up against the Indianapolis Colts, who have been one 841 00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:25,880 Speaker 1: of the tougher teams against quarterbacks this season. Lamar Jackson 842 00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:29,120 Speaker 1: himself has scuffled a little bit. He's currently the quarterback 843 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:32,640 Speaker 1: ten averaging just run around twenty fantasy points per game. 844 00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:34,719 Speaker 1: But what we need to look at it here are 845 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:38,520 Speaker 1: the recent twin twins trends. UH. The Coults have allowed 846 00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:42,839 Speaker 1: a top four quarterback finish UH last in in last week, 847 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:46,239 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford got him for three thirty six and three touchdowns. 848 00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:49,400 Speaker 1: They've allowed a top thirteen quarterback in two consecutive games. 849 00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow through for them through a lot of yards 850 00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:55,640 Speaker 1: against them, but didn't get into the end zone. But 851 00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:58,160 Speaker 1: I think because of the floor with Lamar Jackson running, 852 00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 1: he's a safe start. And I'm also gonna go back 853 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:04,240 Speaker 1: at to Cam Newton. He had eighteen fantasy points on Sunday. 854 00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:07,080 Speaker 1: He lost two on that fumble, which was unfortunate, but 855 00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:09,359 Speaker 1: he's had at least eighteen fantasy points in two out 856 00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 1: of his last three games. He's still a great threat 857 00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:15,439 Speaker 1: to run the football himself. The Jets have allowed nine 858 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:19,120 Speaker 1: rushing touchdowns this season. They've allowed the fourth most yards 859 00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:22,760 Speaker 1: per game passing this season, So this is a good matchup. 860 00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:26,239 Speaker 1: Cam didn't play horrible last week. I know he had 861 00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:29,719 Speaker 1: that unfortunate fumble again, but he played well and I 862 00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:34,000 Speaker 1: would feel confident starting him alright, So we hopefully a 863 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:36,640 Speaker 1: couple of scuffling quarterbacks are back in our good graces 864 00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:39,239 Speaker 1: at the running back spot. Who who has your eye 865 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 1: this week? Well, I'm gonna go back to Clyde Edwards Laire, who, 866 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:45,800 Speaker 1: for the first time this season, did not get eleven 867 00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 1: at least eleven fantasy points. And that's okay because that 868 00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:50,960 Speaker 1: Jets game was kind of weird. It was kind of 869 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 1: like Patrick Mahomes wanted to flex a little bit. He 870 00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:56,719 Speaker 1: wanted to throw the football. When Patrick Mahomes decides he's 871 00:40:56,719 --> 00:41:00,400 Speaker 1: gonna throw five touchdowns, he's just throwing five touchdowns. But 872 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:02,720 Speaker 1: now you've got a great match up against the Carolina Panthers, 873 00:41:02,760 --> 00:41:05,560 Speaker 1: who have allowed the third most fantasy points per game 874 00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:08,440 Speaker 1: to running backs. The only reason that streak got broken 875 00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:11,239 Speaker 1: is because David Montgomery didn't take advantage of it. And 876 00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:14,280 Speaker 1: then they've allowed the fourth most scrimmage yards to running 877 00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:17,360 Speaker 1: backs this season. And another running back that I really like, 878 00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:20,879 Speaker 1: this week is James Robinson going up against the Houston Texans. Again. 879 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:23,560 Speaker 1: We talked about Jake Lewton earlier in the show. I 880 00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:26,359 Speaker 1: don't think he's going to be a detriment, especially not 881 00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:29,400 Speaker 1: against this Texans team. They've allowed the fourth most fantasy 882 00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 1: points per game to running backs this season, just behind 883 00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:36,279 Speaker 1: the Carolina Panthers. They've allowed the most rushing yards per 884 00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:39,120 Speaker 1: game this season, one hundred and fifty one on average. 885 00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:43,280 Speaker 1: And you know what, James Robinson averages over a hundred 886 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:45,319 Speaker 1: scrimmage yards per game. So I feel you should be 887 00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:49,080 Speaker 1: you should feel very comfortable with this matchup. Yeah. I 888 00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:51,759 Speaker 1: see no drop off for James Robinson just because they 889 00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:53,799 Speaker 1: made the change at quarterback. I think he's still gonna 890 00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 1: be fine. I think you can still be confident. Okay, 891 00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 1: Uh wide receiver? Who who should be in people's lineups 892 00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:02,200 Speaker 1: this week? Well, I'm gonna go back to Tyler Lockett, 893 00:42:02,239 --> 00:42:04,719 Speaker 1: even though it's very frustrating because if you've noticed the 894 00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:06,520 Speaker 1: trend over the last couple of weeks, it's like d 895 00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:10,120 Speaker 1: K Tyler d K, and now it stands the reason 896 00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:12,360 Speaker 1: it would just be Tyler. I know it's not that simple, 897 00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:15,719 Speaker 1: you don't you don't hand out production like I just 898 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,120 Speaker 1: like I like I handle movie night. You know, my 899 00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:20,760 Speaker 1: two kids every Friday they get to pick a movie 900 00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:22,319 Speaker 1: and it's a it's one week or the other. You 901 00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:24,360 Speaker 1: get it one week, Asca gets it one week, Wedge 902 00:42:24,360 --> 00:42:26,080 Speaker 1: gets it the other and then they pick it. Finally. 903 00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:28,719 Speaker 1: They both loved into the Spider Verse, so they can, 904 00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:30,959 Speaker 1: you know, come together on that one. But I think 905 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:34,480 Speaker 1: Locket is just too good to leave on your bench, 906 00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:37,279 Speaker 1: and I know it's gonna be unfortunate sometimes that he's 907 00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:39,080 Speaker 1: not going to perform is the way that you want 908 00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:41,439 Speaker 1: him to. But you gotta start him, and I'll stay 909 00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:43,719 Speaker 1: in that game. I'm gonna go Stefon Dix, who is 910 00:42:43,719 --> 00:42:47,600 Speaker 1: currently the wide receiver twelve this season. He's really struggled 911 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:49,759 Speaker 1: over the last couple of weeks in this same way 912 00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:52,920 Speaker 1: that Josh Allen has struggled since the first month of 913 00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:54,920 Speaker 1: the season. But you know what, the Seahawks have allowed 914 00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:58,280 Speaker 1: the most points per games to wide receivers, They've allowed 915 00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:01,520 Speaker 1: the most receiving yards per game him. And you know what, 916 00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:03,840 Speaker 1: Stefon Diggs gets all the targets, He gets close to 917 00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:07,040 Speaker 1: the targets, which puts him right around fifth in the 918 00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:10,719 Speaker 1: NFL amongst the position. I really love the Diggs picked 919 00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:12,560 Speaker 1: this week. And it's interesting you pick, you know, two 920 00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:15,839 Speaker 1: guys on different sides of that same game. But I'm 921 00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:17,920 Speaker 1: also with you. I think you know. NFL by laws 922 00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:21,200 Speaker 1: say that both dk Metcalf and Tyler Lockett cannot simultaneously 923 00:43:21,200 --> 00:43:23,919 Speaker 1: have good games. Uh, so this is probably the Tyler 924 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 1: Watt weeks. That's fine. Uh. Tight end has been everyone, 925 00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:30,600 Speaker 1: the bane of everyone's existence for most of the years, 926 00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:32,839 Speaker 1: So please help us with a couple of tight ends 927 00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:37,239 Speaker 1: starts for week nine. Well, Rob Gronkowski, who is my 928 00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:41,800 Speaker 1: favorite w W seven champion of all time, and apparently 929 00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:43,760 Speaker 1: he was a good football player before that, but whatever. 930 00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:46,719 Speaker 1: He's had a touchdown in three consecutive weeks now and 931 00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:49,640 Speaker 1: now it looks like he's fully returned. He is a 932 00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:51,760 Speaker 1: guy that we can trust, and especially in a position 933 00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:56,000 Speaker 1: where we're without George Kittle, Travis Kelsey is really the 934 00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:59,880 Speaker 1: only guy who is consistent, consistently putting up points except 935 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:02,879 Speaker 1: Rob Gronkowski has been doing that over the last couple 936 00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:05,920 Speaker 1: of weeks, and he's really shown that connection. Listen, he 937 00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:10,440 Speaker 1: was retired, he was you know, not didn't have a 938 00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:12,840 Speaker 1: training camp or anything like that. He's now finally started 939 00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 1: to get it going. Rob Gronkowski is an automatic start 940 00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:19,840 Speaker 1: every week, as is Darren Waller. And if I'm not mistaken, 941 00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:21,759 Speaker 1: if I if I'm thinking about this correctly, I would 942 00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:24,440 Speaker 1: say Darren Waller is the second best tight end in 943 00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 1: fantasy football. And last week he broke a streak of 944 00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:29,680 Speaker 1: I think it was like he was having a streak 945 00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:31,600 Speaker 1: of like fifteen points a game where he was doing 946 00:44:31,640 --> 00:44:36,000 Speaker 1: really well. Didn't play, didn't score that well against Cleveland, 947 00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:39,120 Speaker 1: but he was the most targeted pass catcher in that game, 948 00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:42,400 Speaker 1: which is what's the most important. Sometimes the point production 949 00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:44,359 Speaker 1: is not going to be there, but as long as 950 00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:47,000 Speaker 1: he's being targeted, you have nothing to worry about. This 951 00:44:47,040 --> 00:44:49,160 Speaker 1: is a good enough matchup against the Chargers in the 952 00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:51,400 Speaker 1: Battle of l A. And I know exactly what I 953 00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:55,840 Speaker 1: just said. I started Darren Waller without any hesitation. So 954 00:44:55,960 --> 00:44:58,040 Speaker 1: where to the Rams factor into the Battle of l A? 955 00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:00,640 Speaker 1: Are they just say? Are they the champ ens awaiting 956 00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 1: the you know, the two challengers here or what it's 957 00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:05,920 Speaker 1: a triple threat? You know what? And if somebody listen, 958 00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,719 Speaker 1: you lived You've lived here long enough. You know, like 959 00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:12,240 Speaker 1: the Raiders are a very popular team here. Like that's 960 00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:14,800 Speaker 1: there's no getting around it. And there are certain neighborhoods 961 00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:17,160 Speaker 1: where they're the number one team. And Vegas is sort 962 00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:20,279 Speaker 1: of a suburb of Lost Los Angeles anyways, so it 963 00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:22,160 Speaker 1: kind of makes it, kind of it kind of fits. 964 00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 1: I think all that is a percent true. I have 965 00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:28,319 Speaker 1: no beef with any of that. Um alright, defense a 966 00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:31,160 Speaker 1: couple of defenses for folks to start this week. Well, 967 00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:33,319 Speaker 1: I didn't realize how chalky I was when I turned 968 00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:35,160 Speaker 1: this in. I turned this in late on Monday night. 969 00:45:35,239 --> 00:45:38,680 Speaker 1: And sometimes I'm not thinking, Obviously, the Steelers against the Cowboys, 970 00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:41,359 Speaker 1: you're gonna play them. You don't have to think about that. 971 00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:43,640 Speaker 1: You drafted the Steelers, you're playing them. The Chiefs are 972 00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:45,640 Speaker 1: also very good. I think the Chiefs kind of fly 973 00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:48,120 Speaker 1: under the radar a little bit. I do want to 974 00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:49,919 Speaker 1: say one thing. You don't don't run b roll or anything, 975 00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:52,040 Speaker 1: because this is a very important point. But I want 976 00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:55,160 Speaker 1: everybody to know Washington is obviously a good start this week. 977 00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:57,880 Speaker 1: Everybody picked them up off the waiver wire. Washington was 978 00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:01,080 Speaker 1: on a by You could have picked them up Sunday night, 979 00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:03,919 Speaker 1: and then you're probably sitting there looking at me like, thanks, Rank, 980 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:08,040 Speaker 1: I could have used that information yesterday. I understand the 981 00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:10,799 Speaker 1: Eagles are on a bye this week. They play the 982 00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:14,120 Speaker 1: Giants next week Sunday night. If you have a guy 983 00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:17,200 Speaker 1: on your roster who you don't need anymore, drop them, 984 00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:19,080 Speaker 1: pick up the Eagles. You don't have to burn a 985 00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:21,640 Speaker 1: waiver claim, but pick up the Eagles. If somebody did 986 00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:25,359 Speaker 1: not have the foresight to hold them through the bye week, 987 00:46:25,680 --> 00:46:28,520 Speaker 1: go pick up the Eagles Sunday Monday. And then you 988 00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:30,680 Speaker 1: know what, you got your defense already for next week. 989 00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:32,759 Speaker 1: So I'm sorry that I'm letting you down by telling 990 00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:34,759 Speaker 1: you to start the Steelers what you were already gonna do, 991 00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:38,600 Speaker 1: like give you a solid timp for the following week. 992 00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:41,120 Speaker 1: In your defense, though, when you wrote that you certainly 993 00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:43,600 Speaker 1: didn't know about the Andy Dalton situation. You know that's true. 994 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:46,239 Speaker 1: H was gonna start, so uh, you know, I think 995 00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:48,239 Speaker 1: I think you can be giving a pass on this one. 996 00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:51,160 Speaker 1: I think that's funny, all right. That was secure starts 997 00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:57,360 Speaker 1: presented by Visa. And after we talk about the good starts, 998 00:46:57,600 --> 00:46:59,960 Speaker 1: we should talk about the not so good starts. We're 999 00:47:00,200 --> 00:47:04,040 Speaker 1: I think actually basically means the sits. So after that 1000 00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:07,279 Speaker 1: whole long run around quarterbacks for folks to avoid this week, 1001 00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:10,879 Speaker 1: who you got. Well, it's hard because these quarterbacks, even 1002 00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:13,200 Speaker 1: the guys that are like the QB nineteen or whatever, 1003 00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:15,760 Speaker 1: they're still being productive. So I'm gonna say Drew Brees 1004 00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:18,640 Speaker 1: who I'm gonna sit this this week. He's currently the 1005 00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:22,120 Speaker 1: quarterback thirteam, which in twelve team leagues that would make 1006 00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:25,440 Speaker 1: him a QB two. He had fourteen fantasy points just 1007 00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:27,680 Speaker 1: over it in Week one against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 1008 00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:31,800 Speaker 1: That defense is really good. They've allowed just over fourteen 1009 00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:34,160 Speaker 1: fantasy points per game this season. They've allowed the seventh 1010 00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:38,640 Speaker 1: fewest passing touchdowns per game this season. And I think 1011 00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:42,319 Speaker 1: the Buccaneers defense is so overlooked because everything that's going 1012 00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:45,680 Speaker 1: on with the bus with Tom Brady, Antonio Brown, Rob Gronkowski, 1013 00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:50,319 Speaker 1: you forget how good that Bucks defense is. And I 1014 00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:53,040 Speaker 1: don't like Ryan Tannehill as much this week. Now. Currently 1015 00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:55,960 Speaker 1: he's the quarterback eight, but he's had fewer than two 1016 00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:58,840 Speaker 1: hundred and forty passing yards in back to back games. 1017 00:47:59,120 --> 00:48:01,120 Speaker 1: The Bears have allowed the fifth fewest fantasy points of 1018 00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:04,240 Speaker 1: quarterbacks this season. I think part of that got skewed 1019 00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:08,600 Speaker 1: because Taysom Hill scored a touchdown, and I think because 1020 00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:10,560 Speaker 1: he's a quarterback that that factors in. I don't know 1021 00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:12,400 Speaker 1: if they have allowed the fewest, I don't know. I 1022 00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:14,200 Speaker 1: don't know how that works. I want to I want 1023 00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:17,919 Speaker 1: to ask Michael Floria about that. That's exactly what happened, right, 1024 00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:20,279 Speaker 1: It's gotta be and uh, the Bears have allowed the 1025 00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:23,520 Speaker 1: fifth fewest or the fewest passing touchdowns per game this season. 1026 00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:24,880 Speaker 1: The one thing that I want to put out one 1027 00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:27,920 Speaker 1: of the reasons why I'm saying, Ryan Tannial, the Bears 1028 00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:31,400 Speaker 1: are vulnerable against the run. I think this is a 1029 00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:33,560 Speaker 1: Derrick Henry game. I think that's my biggest thing. I 1030 00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:36,279 Speaker 1: I this isn't so much like Ryan Ryan Tannehill has 1031 00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:38,440 Speaker 1: kind of proven himself, is like you can start him 1032 00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:40,360 Speaker 1: every week. I'm just saying that I expect this to 1033 00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:43,759 Speaker 1: be a heavy run script with Derrick Henry. To your point, 1034 00:48:43,840 --> 00:48:46,400 Speaker 1: Taysom Hill was the QB nineteen last week because he 1035 00:48:46,440 --> 00:48:48,880 Speaker 1: had thirty rushing yards, thirty five receiving yards, and he 1036 00:48:48,920 --> 00:48:52,800 Speaker 1: caught a touchdown. So uh yeah that to the quarterback, 1037 00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:58,680 Speaker 1: Yeah ridiculous. So yeah, so you're you're not wrong about that, 1038 00:48:58,920 --> 00:49:01,319 Speaker 1: um running back to avoid who who should we look 1039 00:49:01,320 --> 00:49:04,319 Speaker 1: out for? Well, I'm gonna take the cowards way out 1040 00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:07,000 Speaker 1: like it's Zey, Like it's who what running back do 1041 00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:10,000 Speaker 1: you bench? Like, I'm gonna say j D McKissick. But 1042 00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:13,080 Speaker 1: even then, I know that there's somebody listening or watching 1043 00:49:13,160 --> 00:49:16,200 Speaker 1: or whatever. However you however, you're absorbing this content being 1044 00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:18,759 Speaker 1: like I need to start j D mckissic. And he's 1045 00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:21,600 Speaker 1: not a bad player, but you know what, he's the 1046 00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:24,120 Speaker 1: he's the RB forty three. He's had fewer than ten 1047 00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:26,680 Speaker 1: fantasy points in five of seven games this season, fewer 1048 00:49:26,680 --> 00:49:30,120 Speaker 1: than fifteen fantasy points in every game this year. He's 1049 00:49:30,160 --> 00:49:35,520 Speaker 1: currently out snapping Antonio Gibson, he's not out producing him. 1050 00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:38,360 Speaker 1: And the Giants give up a lot of production to 1051 00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:40,640 Speaker 1: running backs his receivers out of the backfield. But I 1052 00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:44,799 Speaker 1: think that's gonna skew towards Antonio Gibson this week. And 1053 00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:48,600 Speaker 1: I'm also gonna advised to go against Jordan Wilkins, who 1054 00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:52,240 Speaker 1: busted out last week on the waiver wire, on the bench. 1055 00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:55,880 Speaker 1: Nobody started him, Nobody got those points. Now he's going 1056 00:49:55,960 --> 00:49:58,440 Speaker 1: up against the Baltimore Ravens. The Baltimore Ravens have some 1057 00:49:58,480 --> 00:50:01,320 Speaker 1: injury concerns and things like that, but still they've allowed 1058 00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:03,840 Speaker 1: the third fewest fantasy points per games to running backs 1059 00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:07,520 Speaker 1: this year, the six fewest rushing yards per game. I 1060 00:50:07,560 --> 00:50:11,360 Speaker 1: know that, you know they they've given up some production 1061 00:50:11,400 --> 00:50:13,160 Speaker 1: to two running backs here or there, but I think 1062 00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:15,640 Speaker 1: that the matchup, I I still think that Jonathan Taylor 1063 00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:17,279 Speaker 1: is going to be in the mix. It was a 1064 00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:20,440 Speaker 1: hot hand issue. I don't like the Colts running back 1065 00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:23,680 Speaker 1: situation at all, so I'm gonna avoid them this week, 1066 00:50:23,719 --> 00:50:27,800 Speaker 1: even if you have Jonathan Taylor or Niheim Hines, whoever 1067 00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:30,799 Speaker 1: you might be starting. Wilkins seems like a severe case 1068 00:50:30,880 --> 00:50:33,400 Speaker 1: of chasing the points. And I had someone who I 1069 00:50:33,480 --> 00:50:35,799 Speaker 1: presume was sort of trolling me in my mention saying, well, 1070 00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:38,120 Speaker 1: why did you put Wilkins at the bottom of your 1071 00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:40,480 Speaker 1: waiver wire column this week? You didn't have him last week. 1072 00:50:40,520 --> 00:50:43,399 Speaker 1: You totally dropped the ball, And I'm like, yeah, bro, Uh, 1073 00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:45,799 Speaker 1: two weeks ago, Wilkins had one yard, then the week 1074 00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:47,640 Speaker 1: after that he had negative one yard. So that's a 1075 00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:51,040 Speaker 1: combined zero points for two weeks. So uh, yeah that 1076 00:50:51,160 --> 00:50:53,600 Speaker 1: this just feels like going after something that's probably not 1077 00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:56,440 Speaker 1: going to be there for you. Okay, So wide receivers, 1078 00:50:56,440 --> 00:50:59,160 Speaker 1: you have Ryan Tannehill as a sit I would imagine 1079 00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:01,600 Speaker 1: that means his right with wide receivers probably people to 1080 00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:08,279 Speaker 1: avoid as well. Yeah, I feel confident, confident, confident whatever A. J. 1081 00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:10,960 Speaker 1: Brown is fine. Corey Davis is somebody I'm probably going 1082 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:14,400 Speaker 1: to avoid this week. He's having his Davante Parker breakout 1083 00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:16,719 Speaker 1: this season, which, by the way, I know you're on 1084 00:51:16,800 --> 00:51:21,640 Speaker 1: the NFL Fantasy Spectacular. Eric Young, the Impact Champion, was 1085 00:51:21,719 --> 00:51:23,839 Speaker 1: on that show with us as well, and in our 1086 00:51:23,920 --> 00:51:26,399 Speaker 1: segment it was great. I felt like Andy Cohen because 1087 00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:28,439 Speaker 1: it was like such an eclectic mix with Eric Young, 1088 00:51:28,880 --> 00:51:32,200 Speaker 1: Michael left Florio, and Johnny Bananas Like it was so fun. 1089 00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:35,000 Speaker 1: Eric made a great point about Corey Davis having an 1090 00:51:35,040 --> 00:51:37,120 Speaker 1: opportunity to break out, and we love seeing it. He's 1091 00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:39,680 Speaker 1: currently the wide receiver six team, but he's had fewer 1092 00:51:39,719 --> 00:51:42,120 Speaker 1: than forty receiving ours in two of his last four games. 1093 00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:45,200 Speaker 1: The Bears again are really good against running backs. They've 1094 00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:48,400 Speaker 1: allowed the fewest receiving touchdowns to wide receivers this season 1095 00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:51,560 Speaker 1: with just two. Because last week there are two receiving 1096 00:51:51,560 --> 00:51:53,360 Speaker 1: touchdowns they gave up. We're to a tight end and 1097 00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:58,440 Speaker 1: a quarterback, and as a start, I know you're probably 1098 00:51:58,480 --> 00:52:01,000 Speaker 1: gonna run the ceedee lamb be roll again. I do 1099 00:52:01,080 --> 00:52:04,400 Speaker 1: this on Monday night, taking the Cowards way out, thinking 1100 00:52:04,440 --> 00:52:07,560 Speaker 1: that Andy Dalton could have returned. But now we're gonna 1101 00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:09,440 Speaker 1: avoid all the Cowboys. I just want to say this, 1102 00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:11,799 Speaker 1: as the Cowboys receivers, you can show up mixtape of this. 1103 00:52:12,160 --> 00:52:14,319 Speaker 1: I don't want any of these receivers. And again I 1104 00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:16,480 Speaker 1: don't want to say anything bad about Cooper Rush or 1105 00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:19,680 Speaker 1: Benda Nuci. These young quarterbacks can come into this league 1106 00:52:19,719 --> 00:52:22,440 Speaker 1: and perform well. I don't like the offensive line. I 1107 00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:25,120 Speaker 1: don't like going up against the Pittsburgh Steelers. So I'm 1108 00:52:25,120 --> 00:52:29,080 Speaker 1: gonna sit all of my Cowboys receivers if possible. I mean, 1109 00:52:29,080 --> 00:52:30,800 Speaker 1: if you're sitting there and you're like, well, is it 1110 00:52:30,880 --> 00:52:34,320 Speaker 1: Cooper or quintess cfis okay, we might have a conversation 1111 00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:36,480 Speaker 1: you might want to go with. Although I kind of 1112 00:52:36,520 --> 00:52:38,799 Speaker 1: like Sefis. I think that's kind of fun, but I 1113 00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:44,279 Speaker 1: understand most normal circumstances. Although there are a lot of 1114 00:52:44,280 --> 00:52:46,239 Speaker 1: good receivers, and that's the one thing, Like there's a 1115 00:52:46,239 --> 00:52:48,640 Speaker 1: lot of good receivers out this week. You got both 1116 00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:52,120 Speaker 1: Rams guys out, You got Tyler Boyd. We talked about 1117 00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:54,640 Speaker 1: Tee Higgins. I think there's there's somebody else that I'm 1118 00:52:54,680 --> 00:52:57,719 Speaker 1: missing too. There's another of the Browns are off with 1119 00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:00,600 Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry. No, no, Jarvis Landry. You know what, Like 1120 00:53:00,640 --> 00:53:03,000 Speaker 1: it's a bad week, like this is kind of tough, 1121 00:53:03,040 --> 00:53:05,279 Speaker 1: so you know there's gonna be some streamable receivers. I 1122 00:53:05,320 --> 00:53:07,279 Speaker 1: should tweet out the thing I did on Fantasy Live 1123 00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:11,279 Speaker 1: on Tuesday to help people out. All Right, tight end 1124 00:53:11,280 --> 00:53:13,759 Speaker 1: has been such a mess force this week. So which 1125 00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:15,839 Speaker 1: which tight ends are inevitably going to break our hearts 1126 00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:18,880 Speaker 1: in Week nine? Well, don't chase the fantasy points with 1127 00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:21,200 Speaker 1: Trey Burton. Although it's fun to talk about how he 1128 00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:24,560 Speaker 1: has two rushing touchdowns this season. That's as many as 1129 00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:29,080 Speaker 1: Clyde Edwards E Laire. That's more rushing touchdowns than David Montgomery, 1130 00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:32,720 Speaker 1: more rushing touchdowns and Devin Singletary. It's as many rushing 1131 00:53:32,719 --> 00:53:35,680 Speaker 1: touchdowns as Lamar Jackson too. So it's funny, like it's 1132 00:53:36,320 --> 00:53:38,560 Speaker 1: I don't know what Frank Reich's trying to prove. Does 1133 00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:40,920 Speaker 1: he really hate Matt Naggy or something like. He's like, 1134 00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:43,680 Speaker 1: I'm gonna keep giving. I'm gonna keep feeding like they're 1135 00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:46,719 Speaker 1: feeding Trey Burton at the goal line. I just don't 1136 00:53:46,719 --> 00:53:49,240 Speaker 1: want to try. I don't want to chase that in fantasy. 1137 00:53:49,280 --> 00:53:52,160 Speaker 1: And another tight end that I like but it's never 1138 00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:56,080 Speaker 1: really stepped up is Logan Thomas. This again, we go 1139 00:53:56,160 --> 00:53:58,160 Speaker 1: back to the top of the discussion we were having 1140 00:53:58,160 --> 00:54:00,919 Speaker 1: about Evan Ingram about like how you just I'll wait 1141 00:54:01,040 --> 00:54:03,120 Speaker 1: it out with Evan Ingram knowing that I'm gonna get 1142 00:54:03,160 --> 00:54:06,480 Speaker 1: between tend to tend to twelve points because Logan Thomas 1143 00:54:06,520 --> 00:54:09,000 Speaker 1: is so volatile, Like I want to like him, but 1144 00:54:09,040 --> 00:54:11,480 Speaker 1: I can't trust him, so I'm not gonna start him. 1145 00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:14,160 Speaker 1: So he's on the bench this week. I feel like 1146 00:54:14,200 --> 00:54:17,000 Speaker 1: Logan Thomas basically is just getting his steps in on 1147 00:54:17,040 --> 00:54:18,759 Speaker 1: Wednesday because he's out on the field a lot, and 1148 00:54:18,800 --> 00:54:20,839 Speaker 1: he's running a lot of routes and I guess he's 1149 00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:23,000 Speaker 1: getting a decent number of targets, but the production hasn't 1150 00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:24,920 Speaker 1: been there, so I'm not really sure what he's accomplishing 1151 00:54:24,960 --> 00:54:28,200 Speaker 1: other than getting Cardio in for the Washington football team 1152 00:54:28,239 --> 00:54:31,560 Speaker 1: every single week. All right. Finally, defense is to avoid 1153 00:54:31,640 --> 00:54:34,759 Speaker 1: who who should people be aware of? I don't know, 1154 00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:37,200 Speaker 1: like the teams that are going up against good squads, 1155 00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:39,400 Speaker 1: Like I don't know, Like I wish I didn't have to. 1156 00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:42,480 Speaker 1: This is so difficult, Like you know who you start 1157 00:54:42,560 --> 00:54:44,920 Speaker 1: and who you don't start, so you gotta pick teams 1158 00:54:44,920 --> 00:54:47,920 Speaker 1: that rain like, although I will say the Chargers the 1159 00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:49,919 Speaker 1: Charges of me, like, that's a team that I feel 1160 00:54:49,920 --> 00:54:52,040 Speaker 1: like people pick up, and they might have picked him 1161 00:54:52,120 --> 00:54:54,720 Speaker 1: up last week going up against Drew Lock in Denver 1162 00:54:54,840 --> 00:54:57,200 Speaker 1: and we're like, okay, cool. I think that this Raiders 1163 00:54:57,239 --> 00:55:00,040 Speaker 1: team can move the ball enough to where I I 1164 00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:01,520 Speaker 1: want to play the Charges this week if I can 1165 00:55:01,520 --> 00:55:03,319 Speaker 1: find some other streaming option, if I could pick up 1166 00:55:03,320 --> 00:55:06,000 Speaker 1: the Washington FT or find somebody else like that, that 1167 00:55:06,080 --> 00:55:07,440 Speaker 1: I feel a little bit better about that. So I 1168 00:55:07,480 --> 00:55:11,560 Speaker 1: think the Chargers not quite not quite what they thought 1169 00:55:11,560 --> 00:55:13,000 Speaker 1: we thought they were going to be at the beginning 1170 00:55:13,040 --> 00:55:15,040 Speaker 1: of the season, so I don't necessarily believe in them. 1171 00:55:15,040 --> 00:55:18,760 Speaker 1: Of course, as always, check the NFL dot Com Fantasy 1172 00:55:18,840 --> 00:55:22,040 Speaker 1: rankings before you make any final decision. And again I 1173 00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:25,759 Speaker 1: put the Cowboys on there because I'm a coward and 1174 00:55:25,800 --> 00:55:28,080 Speaker 1: they make me pick somebody like I don't know cowboys like, 1175 00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:31,360 Speaker 1: I don't want to start them. Listen use the NFL 1176 00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:33,880 Speaker 1: dot Com fantasy rankings. They're very like you know the 1177 00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:36,680 Speaker 1: teams that you don't you want to play the Giant Like, actually, 1178 00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:40,319 Speaker 1: I will tell you this. I I know we're talking 1179 00:55:40,320 --> 00:55:43,560 Speaker 1: about sits right now. The Giants are not a bad 1180 00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:46,080 Speaker 1: streamable option this week. I think that going. And I 1181 00:55:46,120 --> 00:55:49,080 Speaker 1: know I'm ruining the the the b roll and everything, 1182 00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:50,719 Speaker 1: and the producers are gonna get mad at me and 1183 00:55:50,760 --> 00:55:52,319 Speaker 1: be like, can you give us the hoods up next time? 1184 00:55:52,400 --> 00:55:55,319 Speaker 1: Like no, because this is stream of consciousness and I 1185 00:55:55,400 --> 00:55:59,040 Speaker 1: just thought about the Giants. We're we're streaming the the 1186 00:55:59,080 --> 00:56:02,000 Speaker 1: Washington FT. You can actually stream the Giants on the 1187 00:56:02,040 --> 00:56:03,680 Speaker 1: other side if you miss out on that, because it's 1188 00:56:03,719 --> 00:56:07,319 Speaker 1: like Kyle Allen is not you know, some great not 1189 00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:10,399 Speaker 1: some great quarterback. You know he's not Kirk. Was Kirk 1190 00:56:10,400 --> 00:56:13,560 Speaker 1: Cousins really going to be the default good Washington quarterback? 1191 00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:15,799 Speaker 1: Why can't I think my gripen Like how far do 1192 00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:17,920 Speaker 1: I have to go? Back? Alex Smith? There, he was 1193 00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:20,919 Speaker 1: a fine quarterback, um, but they got Giants because again, 1194 00:56:20,960 --> 00:56:22,879 Speaker 1: the Giants were playing hard and I thought they played 1195 00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:25,040 Speaker 1: really well. Against the box. I mean it's you know, 1196 00:56:25,160 --> 00:56:27,880 Speaker 1: they were in that game, so that's a team. So 1197 00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:29,799 Speaker 1: I just gave you an extra streamable one instead of 1198 00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:33,160 Speaker 1: one that you can sit. Thank you, Rank, Thanks for 1199 00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:35,239 Speaker 1: telling me not to play the Cowboys. You saved me. 1200 00:56:35,280 --> 00:56:37,920 Speaker 1: I know this is what I do.

And Adam Rink. What is on 1214 00:57:14,400 --> 00:57:17,520 Speaker 1: tap for this week's edition of Fantasy Bites. Well, we're 1215 00:57:17,520 --> 00:57:20,080 Speaker 1: gonna make some predictions for the second half of the season, 1216 00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:24,240 Speaker 1: we're gonna talk a little bit about DK Metcalf and 1217 00:57:24,280 --> 00:57:26,720 Speaker 1: then I'm sure we're gonna we're gonna spend a fair 1218 00:57:26,760 --> 00:57:30,120 Speaker 1: amount of time on that show with me yelling at 1219 00:57:30,160 --> 00:57:35,080 Speaker 1: Florio for those points for Taysom Hill counting against the 1220 00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:37,600 Speaker 1: Bears f p A. Because this is really aggravating me. 1221 00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:39,800 Speaker 1: I love that he is to blame for this and 1222 00:57:39,840 --> 00:57:45,440 Speaker 1: somehow accountable. He's the one. He's my scapegoat. Like it's 1223 00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:47,720 Speaker 1: like the people who and I'm I filmed the p 1224 00:57:47,920 --> 00:57:50,480 Speaker 1: s A about the Taysom Hill situation earlier today, so 1225 00:57:50,520 --> 00:57:52,040 Speaker 1: you can look forward to that. But it's like we 1226 00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:55,000 Speaker 1: always get scapegoated for this stuff, like why can't I 1227 00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:57,200 Speaker 1: do this? I'm like, bro, talk to the Saints. Don't 1228 00:57:57,240 --> 00:57:59,800 Speaker 1: talk to me like they are the ones that make 1229 00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:02,600 Speaker 1: these rules, not me. I'm just I'm just the person 1230 00:58:03,600 --> 00:58:06,040 Speaker 1: trying to give you the information. Don't get upset of me. 1231 00:58:06,720 --> 00:58:08,200 Speaker 1: I really do feel like, you know, you take your 1232 00:58:08,200 --> 00:58:10,440 Speaker 1: beefs out with Sean Payton because it has nothing to 1233 00:58:10,440 --> 00:58:13,200 Speaker 1: do with us. We're just going by the rules that 1234 00:58:13,200 --> 00:58:15,320 Speaker 1: that we're already written. So to talk to Sean Payton 1235 00:58:15,360 --> 00:58:18,080 Speaker 1: about it, Okay, as we always do it this time 1236 00:58:18,120 --> 00:58:19,840 Speaker 1: of the show, it is time for wire taps some 1237 00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:21,520 Speaker 1: of the guys that you might have grabbed off the 1238 00:58:21,560 --> 00:58:24,200 Speaker 1: waiver wire this past week, and whether or not you 1239 00:58:24,200 --> 00:58:27,360 Speaker 1: should start them. Zack Moss a guy who was very 1240 00:58:27,360 --> 00:58:30,880 Speaker 1: popular this week, especially after his two touchdowns the previous week. 1241 00:58:31,240 --> 00:58:33,520 Speaker 1: The Seahawks defense has been pretty good against running backs, 1242 00:58:33,520 --> 00:58:36,720 Speaker 1: but would you give Zack Moss a try this week? Yeah? 1243 00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:39,520 Speaker 1: That's really My only hesitation is how well the Seahawks 1244 00:58:39,560 --> 00:58:42,400 Speaker 1: have been able to stop opposing running backs. Because it's 1245 00:58:42,400 --> 00:58:45,240 Speaker 1: pretty clear that Zack Moss is the goal line back 1246 00:58:45,520 --> 00:58:49,160 Speaker 1: for the Buffalo Bills. I believe the secession for for 1247 00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:53,320 Speaker 1: rushing touchdowns and Buffalo goes Josh and Allen probably number one, 1248 00:58:53,680 --> 00:58:57,440 Speaker 1: Zack Moss, every member of the Google Dolls, even the 1249 00:58:57,480 --> 00:59:01,920 Speaker 1: touring guys, and then Devin Singletary. So I kind of like, 1250 00:59:02,040 --> 00:59:04,400 Speaker 1: I kind of like having that that I don't know. 1251 00:59:04,720 --> 00:59:08,440 Speaker 1: I would again always consult the final rankings for on 1252 00:59:08,480 --> 00:59:10,640 Speaker 1: the NFL dot Com, all new on the on the 1253 00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:13,880 Speaker 1: Fantasy app and everything like that. But I'm a big 1254 00:59:13,880 --> 00:59:16,920 Speaker 1: believer in Zack Moss, Like he's a player that I drafted, 1255 00:59:17,280 --> 00:59:20,760 Speaker 1: refused to drop, and so if you're if you're hurting 1256 00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:23,680 Speaker 1: this because again, if you were starting Darrell Henderson, if 1257 00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:25,800 Speaker 1: you were starting Geoe Bernard or somebody like that, you 1258 00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:27,440 Speaker 1: might be in a position to where you have to 1259 00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:29,760 Speaker 1: start him. And I don't think it's a terrible option. 1260 00:59:30,120 --> 00:59:32,760 Speaker 1: So I like Zack Moss this week. I like Zack 1261 00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:34,960 Speaker 1: Moss this week just because of that touchdown upside that 1262 00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:36,960 Speaker 1: you mentioned. And I was also today years old when 1263 00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:39,240 Speaker 1: I learned that the goog Doles were from Buffalo. I 1264 00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:41,600 Speaker 1: had you don't know that, I did not know that. 1265 00:59:41,760 --> 00:59:44,760 Speaker 1: I didn't, so I learned something new today. But I 1266 00:59:44,760 --> 00:59:47,120 Speaker 1: would start Zack Moss just because, as you mentioned, you 1267 00:59:47,360 --> 00:59:49,560 Speaker 1: may be short at running back, and if you have 1268 00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:52,280 Speaker 1: to start a guy sort of on a hope, uh, 1269 00:59:52,560 --> 00:59:54,000 Speaker 1: you want to start a guy that that is going 1270 00:59:54,040 --> 00:59:55,400 Speaker 1: to get the ball down here in the goal line, 1271 00:59:55,440 --> 00:59:57,480 Speaker 1: and that is gonna be Zack Moss's role. He has 1272 00:59:57,480 --> 01:00:00,080 Speaker 1: slid in very nicely to the Frank Gore role and 1273 01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:01,840 Speaker 1: I think been a little bit more effective this year 1274 01:00:01,840 --> 01:00:03,720 Speaker 1: than more was last year. So that is at least 1275 01:00:03,840 --> 01:00:06,840 Speaker 1: enough to give me some some hope. Uh. Same game, though, 1276 01:00:07,560 --> 01:00:09,520 Speaker 1: d J Dallas, who had a couple of touchdowns against 1277 01:00:09,560 --> 01:00:12,120 Speaker 1: the forty Niners last week. I know the Seahawks have 1278 01:00:12,200 --> 01:00:14,040 Speaker 1: some issues, are still waiting to see what happens with 1279 01:00:14,120 --> 01:00:17,160 Speaker 1: Chris Carson and Carlos Hide. I feel like, at worst 1280 01:00:18,120 --> 01:00:20,520 Speaker 1: Dallas is the number two running back against the Bills. 1281 01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:22,800 Speaker 1: Is that good enough for you to give him a start? 1282 01:00:23,800 --> 01:00:25,600 Speaker 1: I would like him to be the solo back guy. 1283 01:00:25,760 --> 01:00:28,240 Speaker 1: I want him to be that featured role. Then I 1284 01:00:28,240 --> 01:00:30,680 Speaker 1: would trust it a little bit more because then then 1285 01:00:30,720 --> 01:00:32,760 Speaker 1: we get into a situation where we just don't know 1286 01:00:33,800 --> 01:00:36,320 Speaker 1: what the Seahawks are gonna do. They like Chris Carson 1287 01:00:36,360 --> 01:00:38,760 Speaker 1: an awful lot. They will give him opportunities when he's 1288 01:00:38,840 --> 01:00:41,840 Speaker 1: on the roster, healthy, ready to go, But when if 1289 01:00:41,880 --> 01:00:44,960 Speaker 1: he's a solo artist, like if he breaks away from 1290 01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:48,320 Speaker 1: the band and he's doing his own thing, I'm starting him. 1291 01:00:48,440 --> 01:00:51,120 Speaker 1: I I thought that he was really impressive last week. 1292 01:00:51,160 --> 01:00:53,439 Speaker 1: And going back to the fantasy spectacular that we did, 1293 01:00:54,080 --> 01:00:58,840 Speaker 1: Mark Sessler did a whole thing based on drafting guys 1294 01:00:58,880 --> 01:01:01,760 Speaker 1: on their names, just on their names alone, and d 1295 01:01:01,920 --> 01:01:04,280 Speaker 1: J Dallas was one of his favorite players because it's 1296 01:01:04,360 --> 01:01:08,480 Speaker 1: d J d e j a y, not d period 1297 01:01:08,600 --> 01:01:11,920 Speaker 1: J period like DJ Chark or d J Moore d J, 1298 01:01:12,760 --> 01:01:14,480 Speaker 1: and he loved him, and so I've always kept an 1299 01:01:14,480 --> 01:01:16,920 Speaker 1: eye on him, like just for the weird things you know, 1300 01:01:16,960 --> 01:01:19,120 Speaker 1: that we do. And when he got a chance and 1301 01:01:19,120 --> 01:01:21,400 Speaker 1: you're like, oh my god, Sessler's guy is going to 1302 01:01:21,440 --> 01:01:24,400 Speaker 1: come through. This is amazing, and I really I thought 1303 01:01:24,400 --> 01:01:26,800 Speaker 1: I thought though again he was impressive and if he 1304 01:01:26,840 --> 01:01:29,520 Speaker 1: has an opportunity to do it by himself, I would 1305 01:01:29,560 --> 01:01:32,520 Speaker 1: happily start him. Yeah, I think I think if Chris 1306 01:01:32,520 --> 01:01:36,720 Speaker 1: Carson's there, I'm probably staying away from DJ Dallas. But again, 1307 01:01:36,760 --> 01:01:38,400 Speaker 1: if if it ends up that he is the the 1308 01:01:38,520 --> 01:01:41,160 Speaker 1: guy that I'm on board. Last week I was hesitant 1309 01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:43,680 Speaker 1: because I thought Travis Homer was going to work in 1310 01:01:43,720 --> 01:01:45,640 Speaker 1: more and that ended up not being the case. It 1311 01:01:45,760 --> 01:01:48,480 Speaker 1: was pretty much the DJ Dallas show. So if it 1312 01:01:48,560 --> 01:01:50,240 Speaker 1: ends up being that again this week, I feel a 1313 01:01:50,280 --> 01:01:52,320 Speaker 1: lot better about it. And also I do think the 1314 01:01:52,360 --> 01:01:55,800 Speaker 1: fact that he's d E J A Y is uh 1315 01:01:56,040 --> 01:02:01,120 Speaker 1: criminally understrated. It's significant, it definitely it really is underrated. Alright, Alright, 1316 01:02:01,200 --> 01:02:04,040 Speaker 1: last one you talked about Jordan Wilkins as a guy 1317 01:02:04,080 --> 01:02:06,960 Speaker 1: to avoid. This week nighthem Hines not only had a 1318 01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:09,360 Speaker 1: couple of touchdowns, but also had that incredible we're calling 1319 01:02:09,360 --> 01:02:12,640 Speaker 1: it a round off. We need you, we need we 1320 01:02:12,680 --> 01:02:16,120 Speaker 1: need editor and and former jim This Brooks or Sassimo 1321 01:02:16,280 --> 01:02:19,280 Speaker 1: to come and tell us officially what that was. Um, 1322 01:02:19,320 --> 01:02:22,320 Speaker 1: but whatever would you start him against the Ravens defense 1323 01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:25,280 Speaker 1: this week? I really do believe that he was crediting 1324 01:02:25,360 --> 01:02:28,120 Speaker 1: Jeff Hardy for that move, trying to jump off the 1325 01:02:28,160 --> 01:02:29,840 Speaker 1: top rope or something like that. I might have seen that. 1326 01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:32,520 Speaker 1: Somebody might have sent that to me on Twitter. Again, 1327 01:02:32,560 --> 01:02:34,240 Speaker 1: I don't like that. I don't like the Colts running 1328 01:02:34,240 --> 01:02:37,000 Speaker 1: back situation. They play the hot hand. Frank Reich even 1329 01:02:37,120 --> 01:02:38,720 Speaker 1: came out and said that, like, oh, we're like, we 1330 01:02:38,760 --> 01:02:41,840 Speaker 1: didn't expect these running backs to do as well as 1331 01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:44,400 Speaker 1: they did. They were going into it thinking that Jonathan 1332 01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:47,800 Speaker 1: Taylor was going to get a huge, huge portion of 1333 01:02:47,840 --> 01:02:49,640 Speaker 1: the carriers and he just didn't do anything with it. 1334 01:02:50,080 --> 01:02:51,800 Speaker 1: So people get that's someone think to you. It's like 1335 01:02:51,840 --> 01:02:53,640 Speaker 1: people come back and get mad at thanks for telling 1336 01:02:53,680 --> 01:02:57,840 Speaker 1: me Jonathan tayl I'm like, bro, the Cults coaching staff 1337 01:02:58,400 --> 01:03:01,200 Speaker 1: was trying to make that happen, Like I can't help 1338 01:03:01,240 --> 01:03:04,160 Speaker 1: it if he cannot perform. I'm just telling you what 1339 01:03:04,200 --> 01:03:06,600 Speaker 1: we think is going to happen. I'm not calling the plays, 1340 01:03:06,880 --> 01:03:09,640 Speaker 1: I'm not handing off the football. I'm just giving you 1341 01:03:09,680 --> 01:03:11,480 Speaker 1: the analysis. It's like the people who get mad at 1342 01:03:11,560 --> 01:03:14,919 Speaker 1: John King, like he's just reporting what's going on. It's 1343 01:03:14,960 --> 01:03:18,440 Speaker 1: not in the ballot box, so Lie Malone. But but 1344 01:03:18,480 --> 01:03:20,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna try to avoid the Cults running backs. This 1345 01:03:20,800 --> 01:03:23,480 Speaker 1: it just I don't I don't like the matchup, I 1346 01:03:23,480 --> 01:03:27,120 Speaker 1: don't like the situation. It's too volatile. I'm out. Yeah, 1347 01:03:27,160 --> 01:03:29,320 Speaker 1: I want no parts of the Colt offense this week, 1348 01:03:29,440 --> 01:03:32,400 Speaker 1: especially that against the Ravens, especially because the Ravens, you know, 1349 01:03:32,600 --> 01:03:34,400 Speaker 1: we're not great last week. I mean I know that. 1350 01:03:34,560 --> 01:03:36,320 Speaker 1: You know they made it interesting in that game against 1351 01:03:36,320 --> 01:03:38,200 Speaker 1: the Steelers but ended up losing. I think they're gonna 1352 01:03:38,200 --> 01:03:40,000 Speaker 1: be a little bit frustrated, and I think they're gonna 1353 01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:43,320 Speaker 1: take it out on that Colts offense. So I'm with you. Certainly, 1354 01:03:43,400 --> 01:03:45,440 Speaker 1: no part of the passing game. But whether it's Taylor 1355 01:03:45,520 --> 01:03:48,160 Speaker 1: or Hines or Wilkins, if I can stay away from him, 1356 01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:50,800 Speaker 1: I'm probably staying away from them this week. And by 1357 01:03:50,800 --> 01:03:52,280 Speaker 1: the way, don't take it out on Florio. He's just 1358 01:03:52,320 --> 01:03:56,520 Speaker 1: reporting the news. He's not the one who now. Florio 1359 01:03:56,720 --> 01:03:59,400 Speaker 1: is definitely the one to blame that. He's the one 1360 01:03:59,440 --> 01:04:01,880 Speaker 1: who dies. He is the one who did this to me. Sorry, 1361 01:04:01,960 --> 01:04:05,120 Speaker 1: I will blame him. I tried, I tried, all right. 1362 01:04:05,480 --> 01:04:07,840 Speaker 1: In the meantime, that is it. We are done. We 1363 01:04:07,880 --> 01:04:10,439 Speaker 1: appreciate you hanging out with the NFL Fantasy Football Show 1364 01:04:10,480 --> 01:04:12,600 Speaker 1: presented by Draft Kings.
