WEBVTT - Squeaky Wheel! 0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:03.880 Welcome to fantasy football weekly, a production of I heart radio. 0:00:06.000 --> 0:00:09.879 Time now for fantasy football weekly from my heart radio, 0:00:10.320 --> 0:00:14.720 your weekly source for the nation's best fantasy speculation and advice. 0:00:17.840 --> 0:00:24.040 Leagues Dot Com. Here's your host. Welcome to fantasy football weekly. 0:00:24.040 --> 0:00:27.320 I'm Paul Georgie and my co host today are Scott 0:00:27.320 --> 0:00:30.720 Fish and Brian Johnson. Hello, guys, hello again. Same as 0:00:30.800 --> 0:00:34.000 last week, same as last week. God's it drags so 0:00:34.240 --> 0:00:38.280 long with you two gee, one show feels like twenty. 0:00:38.360 --> 0:00:39.880 We've got a lot to get to. Over the course 0:00:39.920 --> 0:00:41.839 of the show. We will break down all the matchups 0:00:41.840 --> 0:00:44.600 like we always do, letter grades for all the fantasy 0:00:44.720 --> 0:00:48.559 relevant players. We will take a chance on nine players 0:00:48.560 --> 0:00:51.400 you would not normally start. We'll answer three tough questions 0:00:51.400 --> 0:00:52.600 and at the end of the show will give you 0:00:52.640 --> 0:00:56.400 players to pick up that aren't already on rosters and 0:00:56.440 --> 0:00:58.480 you'll want to grab this week when other people are 0:00:58.520 --> 0:01:01.920 trying to pick that up next week. That's the second 0:01:02.960 --> 0:01:07.560 speculation coming up later on in the show. But let's die. 0:01:07.640 --> 0:01:09.760 Let's go right into the matchups. If you're ready, let's 0:01:09.800 --> 0:01:12.520 let's jump in. Saints taking on the Panthers. Scott and 0:01:12.560 --> 0:01:15.320 for the saints. Jamis Winston playing with a broken back, 0:01:15.840 --> 0:01:19.200 four fractures. Yeah, bad game last week. It seemed to 0:01:19.240 --> 0:01:23.360 affect him and kind of a tricky matchup against the panther. Yeah, 0:01:23.400 --> 0:01:25.120 I was sitting on a C grade with him. I 0:01:25.319 --> 0:01:27.880 think I've downgraded it to a bench at this point. 0:01:27.959 --> 0:01:30.880 The panthers fourth best against quarterbacks, but I mean they 0:01:30.920 --> 0:01:33.880 faced Jacoby Brissette and Daniel Jones, I suppose on Thursday night. 0:01:33.959 --> 0:01:36.640 Jacobe prisctte actually looked pretty good. He looked he looked 0:01:36.680 --> 0:01:40.640 terrible in week one, though. So like, uh, they have 0:01:40.680 --> 0:01:43.319 started the year as the fourth best against quarterbacks and 0:01:43.360 --> 0:01:47.440 the third best against wide receivers. Um since getting lace, 0:01:47.600 --> 0:01:50.400 Winston falls into two and two and seventy yards and 0:01:50.440 --> 0:01:54.800 a score range most games. Yeah, yeah, I'M gonna put 0:01:54.800 --> 0:01:57.760 that in there. Like since getting lacing, that's about where 0:01:57.760 --> 0:01:59.720 he falls. I had him as a C grade. I've 0:01:59.720 --> 0:02:01.880 moved him to a bench because of what you said. 0:02:01.960 --> 0:02:04.080 He just did not look right with that injured back 0:02:04.200 --> 0:02:06.680 last week. But I do have some starting grades on 0:02:06.720 --> 0:02:09.080 some of his wide receivers. Over here. I have a 0:02:09.120 --> 0:02:12.120 B grade on Michael Thomas. You could probably talk me 0:02:12.160 --> 0:02:14.720 into an age just because he's so dang reliable with 0:02:14.760 --> 0:02:17.720 his eight plus targets, his fifty plus yards, his score 0:02:17.720 --> 0:02:19.920 in each game. But he's only scored four times in 0:02:19.960 --> 0:02:23.320 the twelve games without drew brees, and Jamis isn't looking 0:02:23.360 --> 0:02:26.160 as good. He did score last week, of course, but 0:02:26.480 --> 0:02:28.600 he's been in that fifty to seventy yards and you 0:02:28.680 --> 0:02:31.400 hope for a touchdown range. That's more B range to me. 0:02:31.840 --> 0:02:35.000 He's not exploding. I don't expect Jamis to explode for 0:02:35.160 --> 0:02:40.079 him and honestly, last week the surprise was three hundred 0:02:40.120 --> 0:02:44.040 and sixty five air yards to Chris, a lava, who 0:02:44.160 --> 0:02:46.919 leads the NFL in that they are taking shot after 0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:50.360 shot deep to try to get a lava involved. He's 0:02:50.400 --> 0:02:52.919 the one that's more likely to have the giant boom 0:02:52.960 --> 0:02:55.760 bust game and I have C grade on him just 0:02:55.840 --> 0:02:59.240 because of that opportunity with the deep targets, thirteen targets 0:02:59.280 --> 0:03:01.600 last week. Here's the risk, though. This is why it's 0:03:01.600 --> 0:03:04.680 only a C grade. He's going up against Dante Jackson, 0:03:04.680 --> 0:03:07.000 who took out Donovan People's Jones last week. I mean 0:03:07.040 --> 0:03:09.200 that's not a big deal, but he is arguably the 0:03:09.240 --> 0:03:11.359 fastest corner in the league. was that in the air 0:03:11.480 --> 0:03:15.560 yards record. It's got to be for one one game, right. 0:03:15.800 --> 0:03:21.320 I don't like in six air yards in one. I 0:03:21.360 --> 0:03:23.839 do have Jarvis Landry on the bench one week after 0:03:23.919 --> 0:03:26.360 leading the team in targets, receptions in yards. He felt 0:03:26.360 --> 0:03:29.040 a third in all three and he gets the toughest 0:03:29.080 --> 0:03:32.040 matchup he's got so far this year, at least against 0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:35.000 the number one team against the slot so far here 0:03:35.040 --> 0:03:38.960 in two Um. But let's check how they were last year. Oh, 0:03:39.000 --> 0:03:41.320 they were number two against the slot last year. So 0:03:41.760 --> 0:03:44.400 bad matchup all around for Landry. I'm throwing him back 0:03:44.440 --> 0:03:47.040 on the bench because what Winston does get, I'm expecting 0:03:47.080 --> 0:03:48.800 it to go to Thomas and the lave. I think 0:03:48.800 --> 0:03:51.760 you could drop him. Honestly, you might be able to. 0:03:51.960 --> 0:03:54.920 I'm just gonna note here. Uh, not startable, but keep 0:03:54.960 --> 0:03:58.000 your eye and Jowan Johnson beat reporters like Oh man. 0:03:58.040 --> 0:04:00.080 I'm good for his name. I think Nick Johnson be 0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:03.480 reporter in new ORLEAND Saints Reporter. Nick Johnson. Yeah, had 0:04:03.760 --> 0:04:08.000 had mentioned that. He had mentioned that he got a 0:04:08.040 --> 0:04:11.080 full offseason this offseason. He's a six, five frame, big 0:04:11.080 --> 0:04:14.480 target that they want involved in the red zone, etcetera. 0:04:14.640 --> 0:04:17.120 He's getting more and more work, so more and more usage. 0:04:17.120 --> 0:04:19.440 To keep an eye on that. But Bench for for 0:04:19.480 --> 0:04:22.680 this week? Is that a premature, premature speculation right there? 0:04:22.760 --> 0:04:29.160 It might be. Let's just make that my premature. All right. 0:04:29.720 --> 0:04:31.840 Let's go with a B grade on Alvin Kamara, who 0:04:31.839 --> 0:04:35.680 should be back after practicing this week. Nick Chubb and 0:04:35.800 --> 0:04:39.400 Kareem Hunt Destroyed Carolina in week one. Sikan Bark, they 0:04:39.400 --> 0:04:42.279 had a pretty fine day last week. Seventy plus yards, 0:04:42.320 --> 0:04:44.760 a few catches. I expect that here for Kamara. Double 0:04:44.800 --> 0:04:49.000 digit touches Um, with his talent, a few catches, maybe 0:04:49.000 --> 0:04:51.840 a score. That's a B level day. UH SO B 0:04:52.000 --> 0:04:54.880 level on Kamara. On the panthers side, I have the 0:04:54.880 --> 0:04:57.599 whole pass game on the bench. Honestly, Mayfield is averaging 0:04:57.680 --> 0:05:01.479 under two hundred yards game. Has just unbroken coverage passing 0:05:01.520 --> 0:05:04.599 touchdown that seventy five yard robby adderson. Otherwise he's done 0:05:04.680 --> 0:05:08.000 virtually nothing. The saints just held Brady to a hundred 0:05:08.080 --> 0:05:11.960 ninety yards. Dj Moore consistently wet three for forty three 0:05:12.040 --> 0:05:15.760 each of the last two weeks. Exactly. Um. He's gonna 0:05:15.760 --> 0:05:18.080 get a good amount of marshawn Lattimore, but as m 0:05:18.200 --> 0:05:20.919 clay mentioned lattimore. In all their games that sts and 0:05:20.920 --> 0:05:24.160 pethers and played has never shadowed dj more so um, 0:05:24.200 --> 0:05:26.880 which I found respect him enough. Yeah, maybe that's it. 0:05:27.080 --> 0:05:29.360 Maybe that's it. So maybe he finds some room at 0:05:29.400 --> 0:05:31.599 the Times Latimore is not, but I don't think that's enough. 0:05:31.680 --> 0:05:35.279 I actually have a bench grade on DJ more this week. Uh. 0:05:35.360 --> 0:05:37.800 And and as far as Christian McCaffrey, it's an Otto A. 0:05:37.960 --> 0:05:41.040 you're you're going up against the team nearing allowing nearly 0:05:41.279 --> 0:05:44.520 thirty running back touches. McCaffrey is going to get like 0:05:44.600 --> 0:05:47.800 twenty five of those. With what he does in the 0:05:47.839 --> 0:05:50.839 past game and that amount of touches. It's it's an Agrid. 0:05:50.960 --> 0:05:53.320 Did you see the video breakdown of how Matt rules 0:05:53.320 --> 0:05:56.680 tipped his hand on the run pass out of the shotgun? 0:05:58.279 --> 0:06:01.720 It was it's staggering. He was he was lining up 0:06:01.800 --> 0:06:05.960 Christian McCaffrey right next to Baker Mayfield in the shotgun 0:06:06.120 --> 0:06:09.279 on every passing play and a yard deep behind Baker 0:06:09.320 --> 0:06:15.039 Mayfield on every running play. Tipped his hand. Yes, that rules. 0:06:15.080 --> 0:06:18.200 The problem it's that's a pretty good roster and Matt rules. 0:06:18.200 --> 0:06:22.320 The problem with that. I saw under his reign of terror. 0:06:22.720 --> 0:06:26.480 The panthers are like one and like twentysomething. When they 0:06:26.480 --> 0:06:28.839 give up seventeen points, which isn't a ton of points, 0:06:28.880 --> 0:06:31.880 not a lot of points, he's gonna get canned at 0:06:31.880 --> 0:06:34.279 some point. Got To get a shut out. Let's go 0:06:34.320 --> 0:06:37.719 to the bengals and the jets, speaking of frustrating offenses, 0:06:38.200 --> 0:06:41.320 the Bengals, with all the firepower man that offensive line, 0:06:41.320 --> 0:06:43.520 it'll click at some point with all the talent they've got. 0:06:43.800 --> 0:06:46.600 It's looked terrible to this point and the fantasy players 0:06:46.640 --> 0:06:49.359 for Cincinnati have suffered. Yeah, let's start with the player 0:06:49.400 --> 0:06:51.960 that they're supposed to protect most of that offensive line, 0:06:51.960 --> 0:06:53.839 and that's Joe Burrow. CAN GIVE HIM A B here. 0:06:54.160 --> 0:06:56.799 He just needs to stay off his back in this game. Basically, 0:06:56.960 --> 0:07:01.080 he's been sacked thirteen times the first across the first 0:07:01.080 --> 0:07:04.400 two games. UH, since he's since he's revamped, line needs 0:07:04.400 --> 0:07:06.080 to jell and this should be a good spot. The 0:07:06.160 --> 0:07:08.920 jets of total just four sacks. So I like burrow 0:07:08.960 --> 0:07:11.080 with the B and I like all his past catchers. 0:07:11.080 --> 0:07:12.680 They are all gonna get a starting grade, starting with 0:07:12.640 --> 0:07:15.720 the Jamar Chase. Easy Amari Cooper went off for nine 0:07:15.760 --> 0:07:17.840 catches a hundred one yards and a touchdown against New 0:07:17.920 --> 0:07:20.960 York last week, so chase could do the same, as 0:07:20.960 --> 0:07:24.080 could tee higgins. He gets an A. It's unlikely that 0:07:24.200 --> 0:07:26.960 he and chase provide a level production, but they both 0:07:27.200 --> 0:07:30.400 have that potential in this matchup. Bengals wide receivers have 0:07:30.440 --> 0:07:32.760 been targeted twelve times in the red zone this season. 0:07:32.760 --> 0:07:35.320 That's tied for the most in the NFL. And we 0:07:35.320 --> 0:07:37.960 still have to mention Tyler Boyd when Talking Cincinnati Wide 0:07:37.960 --> 0:07:40.480 Receiver is just to see for him, though. Boyd has 0:07:40.560 --> 0:07:43.040 run the third most routes among all players, but it's 0:07:43.080 --> 0:07:45.840 just seen nine targets so far at this season. Um, 0:07:45.880 --> 0:07:49.400 he's clearly not burrows first or second read, but he's 0:07:49.400 --> 0:07:51.520 always on the field for a dynamic offense. So a 0:07:51.640 --> 0:07:54.200 C for Boyd and also a C for Tight End 0:07:54.240 --> 0:07:57.480 Hayden Hurst, who has run the seventh most pass routes 0:07:57.520 --> 0:08:00.120 among all players in the NFL, and the jet have 0:08:00.200 --> 0:08:03.560 yielded target totals of eleven and nine to opposing tight 0:08:03.640 --> 0:08:05.840 ends through their first two games. So I like Hurst 0:08:05.920 --> 0:08:09.080 in this matchup. And lastly, for the Bengals, Joe Mixon, 0:08:09.600 --> 0:08:13.400 easy a for him. He's seen averaging twenty eight touches 0:08:13.440 --> 0:08:16.559 per game so far. Nick Chubb just carved the jets 0:08:16.640 --> 0:08:19.560 up on the ground last week, as did mix in 0:08:19.840 --> 0:08:22.520 when he faced them last year, scoring two touchdowns. Now 0:08:22.560 --> 0:08:25.360 over to the jet side, starting with their running backs. 0:08:25.400 --> 0:08:30.600 Brees haw and Michael Carter. Are gonna give both in 0:08:30.720 --> 0:08:33.120 terms of talent, I think I do well. You know 0:08:33.160 --> 0:08:36.880 Michael Carter's actually pretty dope. He is, and they're both good. Um, 0:08:37.080 --> 0:08:40.200 I don't know. Briest Hall scored one of his targets 0:08:40.240 --> 0:08:43.640 last week and whole average seven point one yards per 0:08:43.679 --> 0:08:46.040 carry last week, but only got seven carries, which was 0:08:46.080 --> 0:08:49.120 the same total for Carter, who averaged just over three 0:08:49.160 --> 0:08:52.440 yards per carry. And, as Scott just mentioned, Hall caught 0:08:52.480 --> 0:08:55.320 a tenure touchdown on his loan target, but Carter was 0:08:55.360 --> 0:08:59.160 targeted five times. Ty Johnson got in the mix with 0:08:59.240 --> 0:09:02.600 three targets. That's not great for hall. Um Hall is 0:09:02.640 --> 0:09:04.480 likely the better player, but he's stuck in a time 0:09:04.480 --> 0:09:06.560 share for now. But it's not a great matchup for 0:09:06.600 --> 0:09:09.240 either hall or Carter. The bengals have allowed just one 0:09:09.960 --> 0:09:12.760 six rushing yards through the first two weeks and that 0:09:12.800 --> 0:09:15.720 was against the steelers, who have Nagy Harris and the cowboys, 0:09:15.760 --> 0:09:18.280 who have the corps of Zeke Elliott. So it just 0:09:18.280 --> 0:09:20.920 just to see for hall and Carter, but a a 0:09:21.040 --> 0:09:25.200 B for Garrett Wilson, who has become the Alpha wide 0:09:25.200 --> 0:09:28.360 receiver already for the jets. Last week he became the 0:09:28.400 --> 0:09:32.959 first rookie in jets history to catch two touchdowns, to 0:09:33.000 --> 0:09:36.760 go over a hundred yards. Pretty impressive. Ever, ever, now 0:09:36.840 --> 0:09:39.760 that the jets of first jets rookie to have over 0:09:39.800 --> 0:09:42.679 a hundred receiving yards and two touchdowns, that's not saying 0:09:42.679 --> 0:09:44.360 a lot. I mean, I thought where I thought you 0:09:44.360 --> 0:09:47.240 were going with that is Garrett Wilson became the fastest 0:09:47.600 --> 0:09:50.160 jet rookie to ever posts a hundred yards and two 0:09:50.160 --> 0:09:56.320 touchdowns in a games. Jets. Jeez, that's a lot about 0:09:56.360 --> 0:10:00.800 the jets history. Not even a two. What about I 0:10:00.840 --> 0:10:02.520 was at I used to go to jets games. This 0:10:02.520 --> 0:10:03.640 is what I'm gonna get into it, but I was 0:10:03.679 --> 0:10:05.920 at a game where Al tune became he had like 0:10:06.040 --> 0:10:07.880 he set the record at the time for the most 0:10:07.880 --> 0:10:10.640 receptions in like consecutive games or like he had at 0:10:10.679 --> 0:10:14.360 least a catch, you know, an x amount of games. Anyway, 0:10:14.360 --> 0:10:17.360 a little known fact about Johnson, yes, but anyway, back 0:10:17.400 --> 0:10:19.840 to Garrett Wilson, leads jets wide receivers and targets with 0:10:19.920 --> 0:10:24.880 twenty two. Elijah Morris total just twelves, even as more 0:10:24.880 --> 0:10:27.839 targets and Elijah more the cowboys whiteouts were able to 0:10:27.840 --> 0:10:30.719 produce against Cincinnati last week. Knew Brown had five for nine, 0:10:30.920 --> 0:10:33.560 one in a touchdown. CEEDEE LAMB had seven for seventy five. 0:10:33.640 --> 0:10:36.000 So really like Garrett Wilson, you with the B C. 0:10:36.200 --> 0:10:38.480 I think Elijah more bounces back. I think there's gonna 0:10:38.520 --> 0:10:42.040 be some squeaky wheel here. You know what we need, Robbie? 0:10:42.080 --> 0:10:43.839 We need a mouse, I need a I need a 0:10:43.840 --> 0:10:47.120 squeaky mouse. Sounder um on the button bar. I've just 0:10:47.160 --> 0:10:50.480 done a jets rabbit hole like Johnson didn't do it 0:10:50.559 --> 0:10:53.760 like it's yeah, what about? He was always kind of 0:10:53.760 --> 0:10:55.520 a bust, at least with his better years are in 0:10:55.520 --> 0:10:58.839 Tampa Bay. But anyway, mentioned Elijah more. I'm gonna give 0:10:58.880 --> 0:11:01.640 he and Corey Davis to see. More is definitely the 0:11:01.640 --> 0:11:04.320 bigger name, but again Davis has more targets, albeit at 0:11:04.320 --> 0:11:06.080 one or two. If I had to pick one in 0:11:06.120 --> 0:11:08.040 this matchup, would be more, but Davis could be a 0:11:08.040 --> 0:11:09.920 decent dart throw in deeper leagues. I think the jets 0:11:09.960 --> 0:11:11.920 will be thrown a ton, as they have been so 0:11:12.040 --> 0:11:13.840 far this season, and for that reason I like Tyler 0:11:13.880 --> 0:11:16.640 Conklin to gonna give him a see. CONKLIN is the 0:11:16.720 --> 0:11:19.280 fourth most targeted tight end in the NFL right now 0:11:19.559 --> 0:11:21.719 and the Bengals have allowed the seventh most artists of 0:11:21.760 --> 0:11:24.400 the tight end position. So conklin is startable this week, 0:11:25.520 --> 0:11:28.560 just as we wrote it up right tyler the leading 0:11:28.600 --> 0:11:32.040 target getter, Tyler Conlin fourth leading. That's the year of 0:11:32.080 --> 0:11:35.800 the Tyler's at tight ends and U Joe flacco remained startable. 0:11:35.920 --> 0:11:37.800 Not that anyone who's really been starting him, but you 0:11:37.800 --> 0:11:41.199 should continue. You should start starting him now. He leads 0:11:41.240 --> 0:11:43.440 the league with a hundred and three pass attempts. The 0:11:43.480 --> 0:11:46.000 next guy up is joe burrow with eighty nine, who 0:11:46.000 --> 0:11:49.400 have played an extra quarter of football in the first week. 0:11:49.440 --> 0:11:52.880 So flacco is airing it out. Cooper rush went for two, 0:11:52.880 --> 0:11:55.600 thirty five and one against the bengals last week with 0:11:55.640 --> 0:11:57.880 no picks, so that should certainly be a safe floor 0:11:57.960 --> 0:12:00.559 for FLACCO, who could throw multiple uch downs in this 0:12:00.600 --> 0:12:03.000 matchup if New York sustains that past volume, and I 0:12:03.000 --> 0:12:07.360 don't see why they don't. Colts, colts and chiefs meet here. 0:12:07.440 --> 0:12:11.240 Colts obviously coming off a devastating loss to the Jaguars. 0:12:11.640 --> 0:12:15.840 For the chiefs, Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelsey are obvious a's, 0:12:15.880 --> 0:12:17.880 and we're not even gonna expand on those two. They 0:12:17.920 --> 0:12:20.400 both come in red hot. Uh. The only other guys 0:12:20.400 --> 0:12:22.679 that get a grade here juju Smith Schuster. You know, 0:12:22.760 --> 0:12:26.360 Juju leads all Kansas City wide receivers with eleven targets 0:12:26.440 --> 0:12:30.640 and nine receptions, but he's only turned eleven targets and 0:12:30.720 --> 0:12:35.840 nine receptions into forty five scoreless yards per game. Juju 0:12:35.880 --> 0:12:37.760 spends about half his time playing in the slot, where 0:12:37.760 --> 0:12:39.840 he'll see Kenny Moore. So far the season, more has 0:12:39.880 --> 0:12:41.959 given up an eighty two percent catch rate in his 0:12:42.080 --> 0:12:45.199 coverage and he's responsible for yielding a touchdown in each 0:12:45.240 --> 0:12:48.040 of the two games this year. So juju stays is 0:12:48.080 --> 0:12:51.679 the only viable Kansas City wide receiver you'd want to start. 0:12:51.679 --> 0:12:54.320 Will give him a C grade in this game. All 0:12:54.360 --> 0:12:56.440 the other past catchers are on the bench. The problem guys. 0:12:56.920 --> 0:13:01.240 Fourteen different players have caught pass is in the chiefs. 0:13:01.240 --> 0:13:05.440 Two Games told us, and that diversity is awful. For 0:13:05.440 --> 0:13:08.319 fantasy use. Clyde Edwards a layer gets a C grade here. 0:13:08.360 --> 0:13:11.760 Only eleven touches per game so far, which is not good, 0:13:12.040 --> 0:13:15.720 and he's masked his low usage behind the two touchdowns 0:13:15.800 --> 0:13:18.120 in week one and the fifty yard gain that he 0:13:18.200 --> 0:13:20.959 had in week two. But if those kinds of plays 0:13:20.960 --> 0:13:24.320 don't materialize, C E H is more like m e 0:13:24.559 --> 0:13:28.000 h Ma. The colts are seeing the second most carries, 0:13:28.040 --> 0:13:30.400 twenty nine per game, despite only giving up two point 0:13:30.480 --> 0:13:33.920 eight yards per carry. That's the NFL's lowest number, so 0:13:33.920 --> 0:13:37.240 they've been a good run defense so far. The Kansas 0:13:37.280 --> 0:13:39.440 City is a pretty dynamic offense, more so than Houston 0:13:39.440 --> 0:13:41.600 and Jacksonville. Clyde Edwards a layer still has a chance, 0:13:41.600 --> 0:13:42.800 but I can only get him up to a C 0:13:43.000 --> 0:13:46.240 grade on the modest eleven touches per game he's had 0:13:46.280 --> 0:13:49.480 so far. Let's go to indy. It's a it's a 0:13:49.520 --> 0:13:51.800 train wreck right now for Matt Ryan in this offense 0:13:51.800 --> 0:13:54.840 hopefully gets better with the return of Michael Pittman and 0:13:54.960 --> 0:14:01.040 Alec Pierce. And Alec Pierce, we're we're excited something. India's 0:14:01.040 --> 0:14:05.000 offense totally inept without Pittman. Jaguars just sold out to 0:14:05.080 --> 0:14:07.760 stop Jonathan Taylor and and they helped out. The only 0:14:07.840 --> 0:14:11.480 ran him nine times in the game. You're not gonna win, Jaguars, 0:14:11.920 --> 0:14:17.640 sorry colts, running Jonathan Taylor nine times. The Indianapolis offense 0:14:17.640 --> 0:14:19.880 should bounce back with Pittman X and a lot of 0:14:19.920 --> 0:14:22.120 focus coming his way. He'll match up against all three 0:14:22.120 --> 0:14:24.640 of the starting chiefs corners as he moves around the field. 0:14:24.920 --> 0:14:27.600 But all three of those guys allowed these similarly big 0:14:27.640 --> 0:14:31.040 bodied Mike Williams to catch two or more balls against 0:14:31.040 --> 0:14:33.200 them last week against all three of those cornerbacks, and 0:14:33.240 --> 0:14:35.760 Williams racked up over a hundred total yards. I like 0:14:35.880 --> 0:14:39.560 Pittman here, with a similar size and ability advantage to 0:14:39.560 --> 0:14:42.280 what Mike Williams had. The chiefs have allowed the fifth 0:14:42.320 --> 0:14:45.280 most wide receiver receptions, so pittman comes in with a 0:14:45.360 --> 0:14:49.120 B grade here. Um, none of the other receivers are startables. 0:14:49.160 --> 0:14:51.640 Are Not getting any kind of consistent use from them. 0:14:51.680 --> 0:14:55.000 Matt Ryan, I originally end as a bench grade, but 0:14:55.760 --> 0:15:00.280 your figure the chiefs are gonna be way ahead. It's 0:15:00.280 --> 0:15:02.360 gonna throw a lot of passes. I'M gonna throw a 0:15:02.400 --> 0:15:05.720 C grade on Ryan. The chiefs have given up solid 0:15:05.760 --> 0:15:08.200 fantasy days to Kyler Murray and Justin Herbert, who are 0:15:08.200 --> 0:15:11.240 way better than Matt Ryan. Granted, Um, you can make 0:15:11.280 --> 0:15:13.120 you get, I guess. I just think there's gonna be 0:15:13.200 --> 0:15:16.720 enough garbage time. Yeah, there's six point favorites. Is the fifty, 0:15:16.720 --> 0:15:18.840 fifty point over under. It's in a dome. There's a 0:15:18.920 --> 0:15:20.400 lot to be a lot to be said for that. 0:15:20.560 --> 0:15:22.400 Sticking with the passing game, and part of the reason 0:15:22.480 --> 0:15:24.760 I think you can start Matt Ryan, Nike Heines Sitting 0:15:24.760 --> 0:15:26.840 out a potentially nice game here with a C grade, 0:15:27.080 --> 0:15:29.680 because Kansas City keeps building these big leads. They're seeing 0:15:29.720 --> 0:15:34.400 a ton of passes, including from running backs. Well, Kansas 0:15:34.440 --> 0:15:37.400 City has already seen twenty running back receptions. That's an 0:15:37.480 --> 0:15:41.400 NFL high. They're giving up sixty four running back receiving 0:15:41.480 --> 0:15:44.280 yards per game. That's third most, and Kansas City is 0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:45.800 gonna have the lead here. So a lot of dump 0:15:45.800 --> 0:15:50.800 off garbage time stuff coming to Nike Heind Se n Oh. 0:15:50.880 --> 0:15:59.200 I kind of like it. Ni Jonathan Taylor, I spent 0:15:59.280 --> 0:16:00.880 a lot of time on this. Between an A and 0:16:00.920 --> 0:16:03.880 B grade. You know I can't anymore. I normally we 0:16:04.000 --> 0:16:06.960 just say Jonathan. There's only a way to just you know, 0:16:07.200 --> 0:16:09.200 but there's not a bridge. The gap between A and B. 0:16:09.640 --> 0:16:14.240 Howard is not to find a spot. Kansas City's big 0:16:14.360 --> 0:16:17.200 lead means the teams aren't running a lot. Um Taylor 0:16:17.240 --> 0:16:20.120 only got the nine carries last week despite netting six 0:16:20.200 --> 0:16:24.120 yards per carry. So you figure Frank Reich will overreact 0:16:24.120 --> 0:16:26.360 to that this week and call his number a lot. 0:16:26.400 --> 0:16:28.840 So I'm keeping I'm keeping the A grade. Kensa city's 0:16:28.880 --> 0:16:31.240 run defense has been good. No running backs top thirty 0:16:31.280 --> 0:16:34.120 nine yards, and that includes Austin Nickeler and James Conner. 0:16:34.400 --> 0:16:37.160 So there's certainly risk here, but I see Jonathan Taylor 0:16:37.240 --> 0:16:41.440 running the ball eighteen, twenty times in this game. Again, 0:16:41.520 --> 0:16:45.040 the overcorrection coming, and an a grade for Jonathan Taylor 0:16:45.760 --> 0:16:49.000 when we come back. Take a chance on me. Nine players, 0:16:49.040 --> 0:16:50.800 not normally and you're starting line up will tell you 0:16:50.840 --> 0:16:53.760 who you can hit the waiver wire four when we 0:16:53.840 --> 0:16:57.560 come back to fantasy football weekly plus. If you've always 0:16:57.560 --> 0:16:59.400 wanted to join a guillotine league, it's not too late. 0:16:59.400 --> 0:17:03.760 We're four brand new Guillotine League sixteen teamers, because they're 0:17:03.760 --> 0:17:07.840 sixteen teams left, sixteen weeks left in the season. Guillotine 0:17:08.000 --> 0:17:11.119 Leagues Dot Com. You can draft David and Joku and 0:17:11.119 --> 0:17:13.280 start him in your line up if you want. Nine 0:17:13.320 --> 0:17:18.880 players are in Mariti Cooper. Yeah, a little, a little 0:17:18.920 --> 0:17:23.040 more expensive brown strap. How about that? Uh. More fantasy 0:17:23.080 --> 0:17:55.520 football weekly coming up right after this. Take a chance 0:17:55.560 --> 0:17:58.280 on me. Nine players not normally in your starting line 0:17:58.280 --> 0:18:00.639 if we'll tell you who they are. Are beginning with 0:18:00.640 --> 0:18:03.840 Scott Fish in the quarterback position. Who You got? Yeah, 0:18:03.920 --> 0:18:06.160 I'm going with Ryan Tannehill in a game I think 0:18:06.200 --> 0:18:08.960 could be. Could be a high scooling affair here. Tannehill 0:18:09.000 --> 0:18:10.879 kind of craft the bed last week going against the 0:18:10.880 --> 0:18:14.680 bills on Monday night. UH, week one he had respectable 0:18:14.680 --> 0:18:17.520 two in sixty six yards and two scores. And all time, 0:18:17.600 --> 0:18:21.080 the all time against the radar. Against the radars, he 0:18:21.160 --> 0:18:24.760 averages over two touchdowns per games thus far in two 0:18:25.080 --> 0:18:27.400 thraders are allowing an average of tuna in seventy eight 0:18:27.400 --> 0:18:31.160 passing yards and two point five quarterback touchdowns per game. 0:18:31.560 --> 0:18:34.040 Solid spot for Tannehill to get the taste out of 0:18:34.040 --> 0:18:36.480 his mouth from that bill was a bad, bad game. 0:18:36.480 --> 0:18:38.199 It's been a tough start to the season for the 0:18:38.200 --> 0:18:40.840 whole team. All right, Brian, who's your take a chance 0:18:40.840 --> 0:18:43.280 at me. quarterback after doing the jets matchup. I should 0:18:43.280 --> 0:18:45.520 have went with Joe Flacco, but I did. But I 0:18:45.520 --> 0:18:48.560 went with Justin fields, who, from a family seat perspective, 0:18:48.760 --> 0:18:51.840 has not been a complete dud, unlike a reality football 0:18:52.240 --> 0:18:54.639 two passing touchdowns in week one at a rushing score 0:18:55.160 --> 0:18:57.880 in week two. But he's had two tough two tough matchups. 0:18:57.960 --> 0:19:00.440 Not The case this week of far easier matchup in 0:19:00.480 --> 0:19:03.160 the Texans, who are yielding forty one pass attempts per 0:19:03.200 --> 0:19:05.679 game and based on your math charts, that would be 0:19:05.720 --> 0:19:12.720 a increase for fields. Based Office passes better game I did, 0:19:13.359 --> 0:19:16.440 hence using it on the show. And of course, fields 0:19:16.480 --> 0:19:19.239 always a threat with his feet. The Texans have a 0:19:19.240 --> 0:19:21.960 decent secondary but a terrible run defense. So far they're 0:19:22.000 --> 0:19:24.880 tackling as a team is ranked twenty five by pro 0:19:24.920 --> 0:19:29.960 football focus. Marcus Mariota takes on Seattle. He's played well 0:19:30.040 --> 0:19:33.080 for Atlanta, especially considering he's had brutal matchups against the 0:19:33.119 --> 0:19:36.119 saints and the Rams so far. And that all changes 0:19:36.160 --> 0:19:39.520 here against Seattle, after drawing just three targets in week two. 0:19:39.600 --> 0:19:45.240 and Kyle Pitts probably has a squeaky wheel game coming. 0:19:46.400 --> 0:19:48.320 Very plus matchup. Well, that's the whole point of the 0:19:48.320 --> 0:19:51.000 squeaky wheels. It's supposed to be annoying. So then you 0:19:51.000 --> 0:19:53.159 you grease it so you don't have to hear the 0:19:53.200 --> 0:19:56.600 squeaky wheel again. That's that's how it works. UH, drake 0:19:56.680 --> 0:19:59.000 London looks like he's gonna be good. Seattle surrender three 0:19:59.359 --> 0:20:01.920 forty yards and a touchdown to Russell Wilson in week one, 0:20:02.240 --> 0:20:05.920 then last week Jimmy Garoppolo air and C touchdowns didn't 0:20:05.920 --> 0:20:08.880 even play the whole game. So, Marcus Mariota, I'll take 0:20:08.880 --> 0:20:10.680 a chance at the quarterback. Let's go to the running 0:20:10.680 --> 0:20:13.680 back position. Scott. Yeah, I'm going with the mere white 0:20:13.760 --> 0:20:17.520 running back for the Las Vegas Raiders. Reports came out 0:20:17.560 --> 0:20:20.960 on Friday from several beat reporters that Josh Jacobs was 0:20:21.040 --> 0:20:24.520 who's been suffering had an illness all week, was not 0:20:24.640 --> 0:20:27.280 traveling with the team. He may still catch up with 0:20:27.320 --> 0:20:29.280 the team, but at this point it's looking like he 0:20:29.400 --> 0:20:32.320 may not play. He's listed as questionable. says. A mere 0:20:32.400 --> 0:20:36.000 white jumps into a role against the Titans team allowing 0:20:36.040 --> 0:20:40.560 twenty five touches and a hundred and fifty five, hundred 0:20:40.600 --> 0:20:44.280 fifty four yards per game to running backs. Brandon bolden 0:20:44.400 --> 0:20:46.760 also questionable with that hamstring injury. It looks like it 0:20:46.840 --> 0:20:48.400 just might be as a mere white and a mere 0:20:48.440 --> 0:20:51.919 Abdula for that backfield. So and why? We get all 0:20:51.960 --> 0:20:55.440 the carries. Yeah, it might be touches for Zamere white 0:20:55.480 --> 0:20:57.920 in this one if Jacobs does not go alright. I've 0:20:57.960 --> 0:21:00.240 had the vegas flu before and it's it's no joke. 0:21:00.359 --> 0:21:04.840 So Gosh Jacobs right now, because you're drinking that Yard 0:21:05.200 --> 0:21:08.800 High Margarita thing that you see people walking around with. Yes, 0:21:08.960 --> 0:21:13.120 and some other dangers, Jamal. Yeah, you're take a chance 0:21:13.119 --> 0:21:15.560 of me running back. Hey, I'm sticking with the Falcons. 0:21:15.560 --> 0:21:17.520
