Fantasy Football Weekly is 4 00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:22,279 Speaker 1: also brought to you by Green Belt Premium, no name 5 00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:28,600 Speaker 1: Butcher Quality meets Honda, town Hall Family, and by the 6 00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:34,640 Speaker 1: Park Tavern. Now now along with Fanball and League Saves 7 00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:41,640 Speaker 1: Matt Harrison and Brian Johnson. Here's Paul Charchy in good morning, 8 00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 1: and it is early morning. It's our seven am start 9 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 1: for Fantasy Football Weekly. Gopher kickoff is eleven o'clock. Pregame 10 00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:51,560 Speaker 1: at nine o'clock, so we are adjusted back a couple 11 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 1: hours before that two hours of fantasy football. Goodness. I'm 12 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 1: Paul Charching. My co host Brian Johnson almost as always, 13 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:02,400 Speaker 1: can't quite say as always, the audacity to take the 14 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 1: one week off. And then Matt Harrison, good morning, guys, 15 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 1: not as much always not your rarely and they're rarely 16 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,400 Speaker 1: seen three out of the next four alright, good, alright, 17 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 1: good do enough to change the liner for at least 18 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 1: three out of the next four weeks. It made sense 19 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:19,480 Speaker 1: this morning, at least the intro. The intro made sense, 20 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 1: if only, if only this time, take a chance on me. 21 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 1: Five tough questions, premature speculation, lightning round, and we'll break 22 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:30,120 Speaker 1: down all of the matchups. And that begins with Packers 23 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: at Bears. Matt It's got no point now where no 24 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 1: Packer feels safe. I have the entire Green Bay Packers 25 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 1: offense on the bench except for one player. That's Davante Adams, 26 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 1: who only gets us see number one. Wide receivers have 27 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:46,400 Speaker 1: actually got it done against the Bears more than any 28 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 1: other position this year. Antonio Brown was the only wide 29 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 1: receiver to top a hundred yards. Jordi had seventy five 30 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 1: and two scores in the first meeting. Michael Thomas had 31 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 1: seven catches for seventy seven last week. And Adams has 32 00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: taken over as the Packers lead wide receiver since Hunley 33 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: has been the quarterback. He leads the wide receiver group 34 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 1: and targets, catches, yards and touchdowns since Hounley took over. 35 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 1: This is not uncommon with with young developing quarterbacks where 36 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 1: they just can't go through three and four progressions, so 37 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: they go to one A and I'll throw that guy 38 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,079 Speaker 1: the ball if easy, remotely open. And so I think 39 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: Adams is enjoying some of that. Yeah. The bad news 40 00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 1: is the last time the Bears allowed to score to 41 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 1: a wide receiver it was against the Packers in Week four. Geez, 42 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 1: and they allowed four in that game. Uh. The offense 43 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 1: is completely struggled under Hunley, and the Bears are top 44 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 1: ten defense, especially at home, where they're only allowing fifteen 45 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 1: points per game. Huntley faces a Bears defense it's only 46 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 1: allowed eighty nine rushing yards total the quarterbacks this year, 47 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 1: and that's where a lot of his value is predicated. 48 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 1: So he's on the bench. Chicago's only allowed eight passing 49 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: touchdowns this year, seven rushing touchdowns in eight games, and 50 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 1: they held the Saints to twenty points in New Orleans 51 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 1: in the last game. Well, Kamara and Ingram both scored 52 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: in that game. Montgomery and Aaron Jones are not on 53 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,959 Speaker 1: par with Rob without Rogers, so they're on the bench. 54 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,920 Speaker 1: And that's really it for the Packers. Notice I didn't 55 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: even mention Jordy Nelson. He's just an afterthoughts in this office. 56 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: Is I know there there are people dropping Jordy out right. 57 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 1: I've seen it. I've seen it happen in one of 58 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: my leagues. As if someone should trade Jordy for mor 59 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 1: Tavis Bryant. Yeah, I saw that tweet as well. I 60 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 1: didn't know. I didn't know what to say either. Pick 61 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 1: your poison. It's not good on the Bear side. I 62 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 1: got one starter, and it's Jordan Howard, who gets an 63 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,519 Speaker 1: A grade. The Packers are allowing a hundred and eighteen 64 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 1: rushing yards per game. They've given up a running back 65 00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 1: touchdown in every game a r that's after Rogers. Howard 66 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: has had thirty six and twenty three rushing attempts in 67 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: the bears last three games. He's just getting the rock 68 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 1: a lot treat. Cohen is on the bench. He's droppable. 69 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 1: He's had exactly one catch per game. Since Mitch Drabinski 70 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 1: took over at quarterbacks, I thought I thought it was 71 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: gonna go the other way. I'll be honest. I'm so 72 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 1: used to seeing young quarterbacks dump off balls to running 73 00:03:56,880 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: backs and and you know safety safety outlet, the stuff, 74 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: security blanket stuff. Now, well, trubisky safety outlet was Zach Miller. 75 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 1: And while he still has two legs barely, he might 76 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: never play again. Kendall Wright hasn't topped fifty yards or 77 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: scored in Trubisky's four starts, so the rest of the 78 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: passing game, including Robinsky, is on the bench. Even if 79 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 1: I tell you this golden nugget of information that tomorrow 80 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 1: is Kendall Wright's birthday, Oh bus, he might get the 81 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: fifty yards then alright, Vikings take on the Redskins. I've 82 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 1: got I've got an A one A grade between both teams, 83 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,239 Speaker 1: and it's for Kyle Rudolph. He has scored a touchdown 84 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,840 Speaker 1: and each of his three career games against Washington, and 85 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 1: the Redskins have just been abused by tight ends all season. 86 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,160 Speaker 1: They've allowed a league worst eight yards per game to 87 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 1: tight ends, and Rudolph averaging eight targets per game over 88 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,160 Speaker 1: the last four weeks. Now a lot of those were 89 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 1: without Stefon Diggs now digs back, so that worries me 90 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 1: a little bit about Rudolph, But still I'm giving him 91 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: an A grade here. The rest of the Vikings starters 92 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: C grades. Adam Feland goes up against slot corner Kendall Fuller, uh, 93 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: who has been really a mixed bag here. The Redskins 94 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 1: have given up touchdowns and Nelson Agilare twice from the slot. 95 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,919 Speaker 1: Doug Baldwin had a massive game from the slot, but 96 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 1: He's also Kendall Fuller has also shut down some other 97 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:20,280 Speaker 1: good slot receivers, so it's a mixed bag here. Celand 98 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: has at least five receptions in every game, and I 99 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 1: still think it's it's gonna be a typical Theeling game 100 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:27,599 Speaker 1: where you're gonna get six seven receptions eight yards and 101 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 1: he probably won't score. Stefan dig c gradecent healthy for 102 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: the first time and over a month and runs the 103 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 1: majority of his plays on the right side of the field, 104 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 1: which means he'll draw Josh Norman, who almost never ventures 105 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 1: away from that side of the field. Norman hasn't allowed 106 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 1: a touchdown this year, and opposing number one receivers consistently 107 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,600 Speaker 1: shut down against Josh Norman. It is a tough assignment 108 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 1: for Steph Diggs. He goes down to a sne like 109 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:55,040 Speaker 1: a Digs decoy. It could be it could be uh 110 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 1: and maybe all the better for Rudolph Jerk McKenna. Let's 111 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 1: stay with the passing him will trap up that at 112 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,159 Speaker 1: first case. Keenum, I've got a tentative see and maybe 113 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 1: a bench grade here. Redskins have played a lot of 114 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,120 Speaker 1: good quarterbacks and they've handled almost all of them, basically 115 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 1: all of them other than Carson Wentz, who has put 116 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 1: up two massive games against them. The average non Winsonian 117 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 1: game against the Redskins two hundred twenty five yards and 118 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 1: one touchdown. That's it, And that's almost exactly what case 119 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:24,799 Speaker 1: Keenum gives you on a weekend and week out basis. 120 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 1: So to me, that's barely C grade chart. You got 121 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:31,159 Speaker 1: your finger on the pulse of the Vikings. Is the 122 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 1: leash for Keenum short. Now that Teddy is back, could 123 00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: not if he doesn't give away games, I think they 124 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: can even lose games as long as he's not the 125 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: three turnover guy to cause those losses. So I think he. 126 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:46,600 Speaker 1: I think cases pretty safe actually, all right, So now 127 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: let's talk about Jack McKinnon for just a moment. Of 128 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 1: the last four weeks, he's averaging twenty one touches, one 129 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 1: six total yards, and a touchdown per game. Those are 130 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 1: great workhorse style numbers. Elite backs like Todd Gurley, Kareem Hunt, 131 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,599 Speaker 1: Zeke Elliott have posted very big games against the Redskins, 132 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 1: but nobody else has. Only the big workhorse elite level 133 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 1: workhorse backs have gotten it done against the Redskins. You 134 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: can decide on for yourself if Jerick McKinnon belongs to 135 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 1: that conversation, is he in the conversation with Girly Hunt 136 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 1: and Elliott? Hundred six yards in a touchdown per game 137 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: would suggests he is non Girly Hunt Elliott backs against 138 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 1: the Redskins, nobody has topped fifty yards, So that's your downside. 139 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: I've got a C grade on Jack McKinnon. Let's go 140 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 1: to the Washington side, where I've got a handful of 141 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 1: Sea grades and that's it. Kirk Cousins comes in with 142 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 1: a sea There's a litany of problems for Cousins in 143 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 1: this matchup. Offensive line is all kinds of banged up. 144 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 1: I think they may only end up missing one starter, 145 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 1: but a bunch of guys playing hurt um. The Vikings 146 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 1: have an elite sacking defense that will test that offensive line. 147 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 1: Of course, you may be shorthanded here without Jamison Crowder, 148 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 1: who's shaping up as a game time decision, Jordan Reid 149 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 1: shaping up as a game time decision. And then there's 150 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 1: the matter of the Vikings secondary, which is very good anyway. 151 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: They ranked fifth and touchdown passes allowed seventh and passing 152 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: yardage allowed. A very tough game for Kirk Cousins coming. 153 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: The only part of his receiving game that I've got 154 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: a starting grade on is Vernon Davis because with without 155 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 1: Jordan reading the lineup, he's still been reliable. He's averaging 156 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: four catches sixty two yards in every game since the 157 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: opener read game time decision hamstring injury. But it might 158 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 1: not matter either way. The Vikings are very good against 159 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 1: tight ends. They're holding the forty five yards per game 160 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,320 Speaker 1: as a position. None of top forty yards against the 161 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 1: Vikings since the opener suggest to see grade on Davis 162 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,960 Speaker 1: and if read, actually we're healthy, implying you might even 163 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 1: just take him into the bench area. Darrell Prior's out. 164 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: He's collected three or fewer receptions in seven straight games. 165 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 1: Josh Dockson's got to average more than two catches a game. 166 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 1: I just that's just not enough volume. I also worried 167 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,719 Speaker 1: that he's gonna see Xavier Rhads and then it's it's 168 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 1: game over for Josh Dockson. Lastly, go to the running game. 169 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 1: Rob Kelly is on the bench. He's a pure touchdown play. 170 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 1: He has scored three times in the last two games, 171 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 1: which is great, But the good news ends there. The 172 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 1: Vikings have only given up two rushing touchdowns all year. 173 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 1: They ranked third and rushing yards allowed, and Rob Kelly's 174 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:14,440 Speaker 1: averaging two yards to carry two. I know you you 175 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: talked about it, but I'm counting six offensive linemen on 176 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 1: the injury report for washing. Isn't it ridiculous? Terrible? Like 177 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 1: all of them. Chris Thompson is normally a very safe play, 178 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:28,199 Speaker 1: but he's also had this string of matchups against teams 179 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 1: that struggle against running backs through the air that ends here. 180 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:36,320 Speaker 1: The Vikings alread elite past catching defense for running backs. 181 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: I've given out these stats a few times in a 182 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 1: lot of different formats. I'll do it again here. Here 183 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 1: are these are I'm gonna the Vikings have faced just 184 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 1: this litany of excellent pass catching running backs, and listen 185 00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:51,199 Speaker 1: to what they've done. Alvin Camara twenty yards through the air, 186 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 1: Lavan Bell four yards, Theoretic eight yards, Tarik Cohen negative 187 00:09:56,160 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 1: eight yards, Tie Montgomery three yards, Bunk Alan twenty nine yards, 188 00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 1: and in their last game, Duke Johnson ten yards. So 189 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,200 Speaker 1: I just I I've got to see great and Chris 190 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,679 Speaker 1: Thompson just because I think it's a talent. But I 191 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,680 Speaker 1: don't expect him to do very much here. Let's go 192 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 1: to our final matchup of this segment and it is 193 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints taking on the Buffalo Bills. New 194 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 1: Orleans Saints have turned into a run first offense. What 195 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 1: do you think about Alvin Camara mark Ingram? Yeah, I 196 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 1: like Alvin Camara a little more in this game. I'm 197 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 1: giving him a b um. He's the league leader in 198 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 1: yards per carry at six point. Oh, give him more 199 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 1: carries please? Well, we don't like to see that. This 200 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,439 Speaker 1: matchup is really about the receiving for Camara. Buffalo was 201 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 1: allowing running backs to catch nearly six passes per game. 202 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: Camara's top five among running backs and targets, receptions, and 203 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: receiving yards. So you do the math. Camara should do 204 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 1: pretty well here. I don't like um mark Ingram as much. 205 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give him a strong See Buffalo bottom six 206 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 1: and opponent rushing play percentage. Opponents are running just thirty 207 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:00,319 Speaker 1: of the time against the Bills, and Buffalo has yet 208 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 1: to allow an opposing running back to reach eighty rushing yards. 209 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: So I like com here a little more than Ingram here. 210 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:08,320 Speaker 1: But you're definitely starting both to the passing game. Uh, 211 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:10,719 Speaker 1: let's go with to start with Drew Brees. It's no 212 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 1: surprise Breeze has more passing touchdowns on the road this year. 213 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:17,079 Speaker 1: There's a surprise. Well, you just ruined my punch line 214 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 1: charge but yeah, sorry, I was active. Here you go again, No, 215 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 1: just go again. We got Wet and Bryan over here. 216 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 1: That is a surprise. I'm giving Breeze this to see 217 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,199 Speaker 1: here though, even though he's better on the road. Now, 218 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 1: that's that's a joke. Of course, bad matchup Buffalo is allowed. 219 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 1: The third few is touchdowns passing touchdowns just seven all year. 220 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 1: Only one of posing quarterback has topped one passing touchdown. 221 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,319 Speaker 1: Breeze could do it, but his ceiling isn't as high 222 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:45,079 Speaker 1: as usually is. Michael Thomas will give a b You 223 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: might be borderline a if cornerback E J. Gaines misses 224 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 1: his third straight game, he's questionable right now. Thomas owners 225 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 1: are certainly hoping for that, but you're starting him either way. 226 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:55,719 Speaker 1: I think Thomas is gonna gonna have a nice game 227 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: here too. I'm seeing him traded for nothing in a 228 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,200 Speaker 1: couple of a couple of my leagues. People are really 229 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 1: down on him, and I don't think this is the 230 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 1: time to give up. No, but he's been very consistent, 231 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,679 Speaker 1: has been blowing up like been very consistent. Ted Ginn 232 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,839 Speaker 1: also been surprisingly consistent. Uh likely to draw trade Davious White, though, 233 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,560 Speaker 1: who grades out as Pro Football focuses number ten cornerback 234 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 1: and coverage. He's been much better than a boom er 235 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: bust guy this year. Again has but that's kind of 236 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:21,439 Speaker 1: what he feels like this week. I'm just giving him 237 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 1: a c I'm benching Brandon Coleman and Willie Snead. Snead 238 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,559 Speaker 1: went from four to eighteen snaps last week. Coleman went 239 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: down from fourty gate to thirty. Maybe they meet more 240 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 1: in the middle of this week, but just the matchup 241 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,319 Speaker 1: isn't right anyway, so I got both on the bench. 242 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 1: That's it for the Saints. Over to Buffalo, starting with 243 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 1: Lashawn McCoy. Shady returns home where he's averaging a hundred 244 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,559 Speaker 1: and thirty combo yards per game dating back to the 245 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 1: start of last season. The Saints are allowing four point 246 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 1: seven yards per carry five point five yards per carry 247 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:51,199 Speaker 1: on the road, so McCoy is an easy A. Kelvin 248 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,599 Speaker 1: Benjamin Oh, I'm tended to give him a SEA, but 249 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go go bench grade here and we'll wait 250 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: and see what happens. The Saints are only allowing an 251 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:00,719 Speaker 1: average of six catches and zero touchdown per game to 252 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: wide receivers as a whole over the past three weeks. 253 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: For that reason, I have Jordan Matthews on the bench 254 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: as well. Even though safety Kenny Vecaro will miss this 255 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: game for New Orleans, I just don't see either with 256 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,320 Speaker 1: a very high ceiling in this one. And Charles Clay 257 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:15,560 Speaker 1: is supposed to make his return. UH coach Sean McDermott say, 258 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 1: Clay is looking really good to play on Sunday, but 259 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 1: the matchup isn't right here. New Orleans has allowed these 260 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 1: second fewest yards to opposing tight ends, So another wait 261 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 1: and see scenario for Clay. Even with all those bench 262 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 1: grades for the past catchers, I do like Tyrod Taylor. 263 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give him the B on paper. The Saints 264 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 1: have the best past defense in the NFL over the 265 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 1: last five weeks, which is but they faced Saint Yeah, 266 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 1: Jay Cutler, Brett Hunley, Mitch Dubitsky's still still for the 267 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:43,960 Speaker 1: by ST standards. That's amazing. It is it truly is. 268 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: But the one legit quarterback they faced during that span 269 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:48,960 Speaker 1: was Matthew Stafford, who threw for three d twelve yards 270 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 1: and three touchdowns. Taylor does have some interesting weapons, and 271 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,079 Speaker 1: New Orleans has given up good numbers through rushing quarterbacks. 272 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 1: So uh, and I got it. Has at least six 273 00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,599 Speaker 1: rushing attempts in all but one game this year, and 274 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:01,959 Speaker 1: it's schoo on the ground in consecutive weeks, So I 275 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 1: will give him a beef, all right. Uh. You had 276 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:07,080 Speaker 1: mentioned Charles Clay coming back. I think a lot of 277 00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: the success he had had earlier was because Jordan Matthews 278 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:13,560 Speaker 1: was out and Zay Jones had done nothing. I mean, 279 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 1: there was nobody else even to throw too. Now you 280 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 1: add in Kelvin Benjamin, and you add in Jordan Matthews 281 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 1: back healthy. Now Za Jones is a bigger part of 282 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 1: this offense, and you know Clay is still not one. 283 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 1: I'm not feeling Clay right now, and I don't know 284 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 1: that he's going to replicate the early season success he had. 285 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:35,360 Speaker 1: Last thing I'll mention about Kelvin Benjamin. Can you remember 286 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 1: another time? Can you remember any time that a receiver 287 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 1: was traded mid season? And then was a particularly effective 288 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 1: fantasy receiver with the new team. I'm struggling to think 289 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 1: of anybody that falls into that category. It's seven am, 290 00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 1: I'm ever traded in the history of the NFL. Uh, 291 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 1: It's I just think this is I think it's a 292 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 1: position that it It really helps to have timing with 293 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 1: your quarterback, to have run all the routes together and 294 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,640 Speaker 1: everything else. I just think I think it's hard for 295 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 1: a receiver to be particularly effective after after being traded 296 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: mid season. A lot of Marshall he was traded, but 297 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 1: I don't remember. I don't think it was a lot 298 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 1: of a lot of the Buffalo coaching staff came from 299 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 1: Carolina and they brought him in for a reason. They 300 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 1: maybe it's a good locker room guy, so he might 301 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 1: he might fit in pretty well there right away we 302 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 1: give my Ley gives points for a locker room guys. Yeah, 303 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 1: so yeah, that'll that'll be helpful. P L R G. Yes, Yes, 304 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 1: when we come back, take a chance on me. Nine 305 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: players not normally and you're starting line up a bunch 306 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 1: of these guys on the waiver wire. If you're in 307 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 1: a pinch in a position you want to stay tuned 308 00:15:45,640 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 1: take a chance on me when we come back. Last week, 309 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 1: regular listener Michael Mike Croswell was nice enough to send 310 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 1: in a eighties John Carpenter style take a chance on me. 311 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 1: We played it, and now he's come back with what 312 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 1: he calls the Voodoo mix. Take a chance on Me. 313 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 1: I kind of like it. No, it's not the Voodoo mix. 314 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, it's the vote Coder mix. I looked at it. 315 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 1: I just glanced at it. Votal. I don't seem not 316 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 1: positive of the vote coder is. But we must be 317 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 1: listening to it. I think he knows better than we do. 318 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: Must be this fancy pants keyboard we got going to think. 319 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: So it's very eighties, it's very Cassio. Let's let's jump 320 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 1: into the take chance on me bit. It's uh, nine 321 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 1: players not normally in your starting line at the beginning 322 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 1: of the quarterback position. Matt, you got I said I'd 323 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 1: never do it, but I'm going back to the Jake Cutler. Well. 324 00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 1: The angle here is that the j Gi E subtraction 325 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 1: was the addition that the Dolphins sorely needed. Both Kenyan 326 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 1: Drake and Damian Williams are far better pass catchers and 327 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 1: pass protectors than a giant, and the offense is more quick, 328 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,640 Speaker 1: hitting and pass oriented now is evidenced by Cutler's first 329 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:11,920 Speaker 1: three yard games since that happened last week. It was 330 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 1: also the first time he threw three touchdowns in the 331 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 1: last three years. He completed thirty four passes last week. 332 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 1: A clip that's non cutl area. No five quarterbacks have 333 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,639 Speaker 1: thrown for multiple touchdowns against the Panthers, his opponent this 334 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,360 Speaker 1: week in the last seven games. So let's see Cutler 335 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,959 Speaker 1: do it. I'd like to see Cutler do it, all right, Brian? 336 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,159 Speaker 1: How did I end up with Stu Beard? Yeah? It 337 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 1: doesn't seem normal, does it? Well? I got Stu Beard, 338 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick at home against the Jets in the Revenge Bowl, 339 00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:43,959 Speaker 1: which I'm sure we'll talk. This is the most revengee 340 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 1: game of all time? Is uh? Sadly? No, no Mike 341 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 1: Evans for Ryan, It's Patrick. But the Jets have still 342 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 1: allowed the most passing touchdowns in the NFL with nineteen. 343 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 1: They've allowed an opponent completion percentage of sixty eight over 344 00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 1: the last three weeks. That is just one short of 345 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:01,119 Speaker 1: sixty nine if you're counting at home. New York has 346 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:04,640 Speaker 1: also allowed multiple passing touchdowns in five straight games. So yeah, 347 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 1: Stu Beard. In an obvious revenge scenario, let's go. Josh 348 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: McCown might be the safest quarterback play this week. Also 349 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:15,679 Speaker 1: now the Revenge Bowl. It's that's the other half of 350 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:19,360 Speaker 1: Revenge Bowl. No two quarterbacks have ever faced each other 351 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 1: having played for more combined teams in the course of 352 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 1: their career than Josh McCown and Ryan Fitzpatrick. McCowen scored 353 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:32,399 Speaker 1: multiple touchdowns in five straight games, and this is his 354 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 1: easiest opponent of the year, Tampa Bay. The Bucks ranked 355 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,880 Speaker 1: thirtie and past defense giving up tutor eighty yards per game. 356 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:42,920 Speaker 1: Opposing quarterbacks have scored in every game against the Bucks. 357 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 1: It's a terrific opportunity for Josh McCown to go to 358 00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 1: the running back position. Matt, I've got Rod Smith. And 359 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:54,159 Speaker 1: this is predicated on Ezekiel Elliott's suspension actually staying a 360 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:57,479 Speaker 1: suspension this week. I think it's going to stay. Exchange 361 00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:01,280 Speaker 1: between now and kickoff. Atlanta, their opponent this week has 362 00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:04,280 Speaker 1: allowed the fourth most receptions to opposing running backs, and 363 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,880 Speaker 1: good pass catching backs tend to have a decent day 364 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:10,640 Speaker 1: against the Falcons. Christian McCaffrey had five catches last week 365 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 1: and ended up scoring on the ground. Matt Forte add 366 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:16,120 Speaker 1: six for forty five in the air. James White had 367 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:19,640 Speaker 1: five catches and scored time Montgomery six for seventy five 368 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,440 Speaker 1: in a touch. Tarik Cohen eight for forty seven and 369 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,159 Speaker 1: a touch. Rod Smith's their pass catching back. I like 370 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 1: him this week, all right, Ryan, I've got Cleveland's Duke 371 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 1: Johnson at Detroit. Opposing running backs are averaging more than 372 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 1: eight targets per game against the Lions, so it'snow surprise 373 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 1: Detroit is top twelve and receptions and yards allowed to 374 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 1: running backs. Duke has ten catches on twelve targets over 375 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 1: his last two games. Cleveland wide receivers are absolutely worthless. 376 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 1: I see a lot of volume through the air for 377 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:50,119 Speaker 1: Duke in this one. Or Lean's Dark wa is my choice. 378 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:52,560 Speaker 1: Now this is a two parter. It's also Wayne Gallman, 379 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 1: so I'll let you do the choosing listener on whether 380 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:59,119 Speaker 1: Poor Lean's Dark Wall or Wayne Gollman is more applicable 381 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 1: for your situation. Ship probably can't find Orleans Dark one 382 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:04,199 Speaker 1: on a lot of waiver. That's right, So and I 383 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,800 Speaker 1: Wayne Goldman, there's enough to go around. Let's let's talk 384 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,960 Speaker 1: about it. Forty Niners ranked thirty feet against the run, 385 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 1: mostly because teams are running thirty six times per game 386 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 1: against San Francisco. Now, the of the thirty six times, 387 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 1: Orleans Dark has never had more than sixteen carries in 388 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,879 Speaker 1: a game this year, so that leaves twenty carries to 389 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:27,119 Speaker 1: get spread around. They're all going to Wayne Goldman. They 390 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:31,640 Speaker 1: might all go to Wayne Goldman, and especially if the Giants, Brian, 391 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:35,199 Speaker 1: are able to reverse last week's blowout and be on 392 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 1: the other end of a blowout win against the windless 393 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 1: forty Niners, maybe then they go to their backup running 394 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,640 Speaker 1: back Wayne Goldman and give him a bunch of work. Meanwhile, 395 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 1: Orleans Orleans Dark wavaging five yards per carry, So we're 396 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 1: excited about the prospects of both. I'm sure will do 397 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:56,439 Speaker 1: the right thing. Retire. Did Charch just find a barber 398 00:20:56,520 --> 00:21:00,119 Speaker 1: blowout game flow for the Giants? I did? Wow? How 399 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 1: about that? Brian? Sorry, Matt, let's go to the wide 400 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 1: receiver slash tight end of position. I've got a tight 401 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 1: end and it's Garrett Sellec. Because it's almost too easy. 402 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 1: It's the Giants that they're playing and everyone knows that 403 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:14,160 Speaker 1: they suck against tight ends, to the tune that they've 404 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 1: allowed a tight end touchdown every game this season. And 405 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,679 Speaker 1: George Kittle, the normal starting tight end, is out. So 406 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 1: Garrett Sellek, who's virtually unowned in any league, is sitting 407 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:28,879 Speaker 1: there with the best tight end matchup of all of 408 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:32,199 Speaker 1: all time, of all time. It's I mean, if you 409 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 1: were to look just at the defensive part of it, 410 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:37,399 Speaker 1: it probably is the best tight end matchup of all time. 411 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 1: I'm confident in the twenty three year history of this show, 412 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 1: we've never had a team rolling on a ten game 413 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 1: tight end touchdown a loud streak ever, correct, Bryan, all right, 414 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 1: let's stay with tight ends, and I'm going with Houston. 415 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 1: C jt Dorwitz at the Rams. CJ is coming off 416 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:57,360 Speaker 1: i R after suffering a concussion in week one. He's 417 00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:01,439 Speaker 1: expected to quote play a lot. So that's good news, uh, 418 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:05,440 Speaker 1: and then their story three game history together. C J 419 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:08,399 Speaker 1: Fedorowit's and Tom Savage are a duo more deadly than 420 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 1: Dalton and Wade, whoa also a great place to grab 421 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,280 Speaker 1: an old fashioned had the well I do like that place. 422 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 1: But anyways, CJ caught four passes for forty six yards 423 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: for forty six yards from Savage in Week one before 424 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:21,639 Speaker 1: getting hurt early in the third quarter. Last year, he 425 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 1: was the only Texan receiver to see at least seven 426 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 1: targets in both of Savages starts. So he's his favorite option. 427 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:29,960 Speaker 1: And I'll see lots of volume on Sunday against the Rimps, 428 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:32,760 Speaker 1: and he's going to play a lot and play quote 429 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:37,439 Speaker 1: a lot market down. Never have more ringing endorsement. I 430 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:42,040 Speaker 1: am going with Tampa Bay receiver Adam Humphries. Evans is out. 431 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,200 Speaker 1: Tom fres is going to get more targets. But even 432 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 1: more importantly, he faces Buster Screen, who ranks nineties or 433 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 1: Busted Screen doors we'd like to call him, or we've 434 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:53,879 Speaker 1: called him Custer Screen as well. We've been picking on 435 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 1: Fuster Screen for year. Absolutely ranks seven at the cornerback 436 00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 1: position by Pro Football. Folks. Get this, The last three 437 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 1: slot receivers to face the Jets and Screen all have 438 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: all score touchdowns and they've all topped seventy four yards. 439 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 1: That's a liability in the defense we can exploit, folks. 440 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:18,160 Speaker 1: Adam Humble, Adam Humphries gets the screen pass. That's right. Uh, 441 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,440 Speaker 1: We'll take a break when we come back. More matchups 442 00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 1: to get to, including Chargers taking on the Jaguars. Do 443 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:27,639 Speaker 1: you dare start anybody from the passing game from San Diego? 444 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:31,200 Speaker 1: Find out when we come back. You're distinct of Fantasy 445 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 1: Football Weekly on the Fan. Welcome back to the show. 446 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:46,000 Speaker 1: It is Fantasy Football Weekly on the Fan. Paul Church 447 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 1: and Brian Johnson, Matt Harrison with you. We're in a 448 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 1: roll up our sleeves on a bunch of matchups and 449 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 1: try to work in maybe a call or two to 450 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 1: the people nice enough to sit on hold and listen 451 00:23:55,760 --> 00:24:02,639 Speaker 1: through the show. First matchup, it's the Chargers against the Jaguars. 452 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:07,120 Speaker 1: Jaguars rank number one against the pass They've given up 453 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 1: one passing touchdown in their last five games, not one 454 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:16,439 Speaker 1: per game, one passing touchdown in their last five games. 455 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:18,880 Speaker 1: That means if you spread that out over season, they're 456 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 1: gonna they're averaging like three point two passing touchdowns on 457 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,639 Speaker 1: the season. That is correct for the Jaguars. Can you 458 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:29,399 Speaker 1: possibly start any of your Chargers no the passing games 459 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 1: on the bench, and that includes Philip Rivers and Keenan Allen. 460 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 1: The Jags have only allowed one touchdown to a wide 461 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:37,439 Speaker 1: receiver all year. That was way back in Week one 462 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,679 Speaker 1: against DeAndre Hopkins, so Allen's not in play. Hunter Henry 463 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 1: as the best matchup, as the Jags have allowed three 464 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: times as many touchdowns to tight ends as wide receivers. 465 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 1: That would be three uh, but Henry's the target totals 466 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:51,639 Speaker 1: have just been erratic seven five and two in the 467 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 1: last three games. The only guy to start on the 468 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 1: Charger side is Melvin Gordon, who gets an A. Through 469 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 1: their first six games, the Jaguars have allowed six backs 470 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:02,440 Speaker 1: to top nine dr three of them hit triple digits, 471 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 1: and they they only held the Colts and Bengals backfields 472 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 1: under those marks in the last two weeks. But that's 473 00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 1: as impressive as Don Trump maxing out a two character 474 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:15,719 Speaker 1: tweet right there. Let's go to the Jaguar side. Leonard 475 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 1: four Nette. He gets an A grade. He hasn't played 476 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:20,440 Speaker 1: in three weeks due to injury, then a buy, then 477 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 1: a team photo. The prior three weeks he was averaging 478 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 1: a hundred and fifty five total yards and one point 479 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,159 Speaker 1: three touchdowns per game, and the Chargers are allowing a 480 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 1: hundred and thirty five yards per game to running backs. 481 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:32,919 Speaker 1: That's second worst in the league. So he's the A. 482 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 1: But the passing games on the bench Blake Bortles uh. 483 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 1: The Chargers have held five of eight quarterbacks to one 484 00:25:39,119 --> 00:25:41,720 Speaker 1: or zero touchdown passes this season. Tom Brady is the 485 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 1: only one to top to fifty against the Chargers. Marquis 486 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:46,879 Speaker 1: Lee is on the bench. He's the only wide receiver 487 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:49,639 Speaker 1: has been worth anything on this roster. There's a remote 488 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 1: possibility that we could see D. D. Westbrook soon. But 489 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 1: Marquis Lee draws Casey Hayward, who's only allowed eight teen 490 00:25:55,640 --> 00:26:01,160 Speaker 1: catches this season to per game. So that's it, nicely done. 491 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,399 Speaker 1: Did I hit the minute mark? I wasn't timeing? He 492 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 1: thought you were gonna time me. No, you didn't say 493 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: you wanted to be time Do you want to be timed? Brian? 494 00:26:09,280 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 1: I mean I can work this out if you'd like. Uh. 495 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:14,679 Speaker 1: Cleveland takes on the Detroit Lions. Can you do that 496 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,200 Speaker 1: in one minute? Yes? Or no? On your market set? 497 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 1: Go h I say that, I say, crow L, I'm 498 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 1: gonna give him a seat. Now. This is way too 499 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:27,160 Speaker 1: distract you gotta do it, um uh cro L. What's 500 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 1: finally useful from a fan? It's I can't do this? Yes, 501 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 1: our thirty second reviewers do it all the time. All right, 502 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:36,440 Speaker 1: it's a bad matchup for crow l. Detroit is right 503 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:39,040 Speaker 1: top ten against the run by Football Outsiders d v 504 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 1: o A and only two running backs up topped seventy 505 00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 1: six yards against the Lions. Uh, they're much easier thrown 506 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 1: off right now. Taking is like, I feel like the 507 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 1: place is gonna explode. Um, I like do Johnson more 508 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:54,239 Speaker 1: than that? I say crow wel that's plays. Might take 509 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 1: a chance on me running back. The wide receivers are 510 00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 1: on the bench. Over the last three games, six Cleveland 511 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 1: wide receive eivers have combined for twenty three catches and 512 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 1: two forty nine yards. That's not even an average of 513 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 1: eight catches and eighty five yards per game for the 514 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 1: whole unit. They're just dreadful. And Joku, David and Joeku 515 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 1: was on the bench. Decent matchup for tight ends, but 516 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,159 Speaker 1: in Joko has got the top three catches in the 517 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 1: game and has preached the fifty yard mark just once. Uh, 518 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:19,840 Speaker 1: you didn't even get through half of the matchup in 519 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:26,160 Speaker 1: sixty seconds. That was nerve racking. He would never make 520 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,639 Speaker 1: it on Video Games Weekly. That's what I've learned here. 521 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:30,640 Speaker 1: You have to tell me that the tik tiking was coming. 522 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,119 Speaker 1: I wasn't prepared for that. You are a radio professional. 523 00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 1: You are paid to execute this show. We expect you 524 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 1: to be able to do it with a ticking sound 525 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 1: in the background. You could have just taken off the headphones. 526 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 1: I don't think I'm paid enough to do it with 527 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 1: the ticking sound in the background. That's too hard. DeShone 528 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 1: geyser on the bench. Okay, over to Detroit. Golden eight, 529 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 1: gonna get eight Golden Tate, canna give him an a? 530 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 1: I am so on tilt right now. Tate his top 531 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 1: ten and receiving yards among wide receivers. You're obviously starting 532 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 1: him against the Browns. Marvin Jones almost want to give 533 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:00,920 Speaker 1: him an a. It wasn't for the fact that he'll 534 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 1: draw a top cover corner. Jason mccordy Jones one of 535 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 1: my one of my sleepers in the preseason. By the way, 536 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:07,879 Speaker 1: if you want to fire up that peacock if he's awake. 537 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 1: Over the last four weeks, Jones is fourth among wide 538 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:13,679 Speaker 1: receivers and yards and first in touchdowns. That's even more 539 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:19,320 Speaker 1: impressive considering he had his by during that span. Uh now, right, 540 00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:20,920 Speaker 1: now you don't mind, you don't mind talking to the 541 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 1: peacock sound when it's all about you. I'm so used 542 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 1: to that. Okay, that's true. Alright, uh man, there's a 543 00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:29,680 Speaker 1: certain tight end I really want to mention in this 544 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:34,879 Speaker 1: matchup for Detroit. Can I know Darren Fells? Believe you 545 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 1: had Darren Fells doubly It's it's it's I'm not recommending 546 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:40,560 Speaker 1: him in seasonal he's started a standard bench. But on 547 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:42,320 Speaker 1: a site like fan ball where he's coming in cheap. 548 00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Ebron against the Browns, I would use Fanballs 549 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:49,560 Speaker 1: triple tight end set to get Ebron, no doubt, no doubt. 550 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 1: Matt Stafful, idiot, Matt Stafford. Want to do a head 551 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:56,959 Speaker 1: to head? Yes, all right, you have to use Ebron 552 00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 1: and your triple tight end stack. Deal, all right, decent 553 00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 1: you link later, Matt Stafford. Gonna give him in a 554 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 1: Cleveland has allowed sixteen passing touchdowns on the season, which 555 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 1: is tied for third most in the league. Stafford has 556 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 1: thrown for three or more yards in each of the 557 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 1: last three games. He's an easy a. I'm here to abdul. 558 00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna give him a CE fumbled in some 559 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:15,960 Speaker 1: key spots last week. It's hard to trust him in 560 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 1: fantasy and now reality. Cleveland has actually ranked number one 561 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 1: against the run by Football Outsiders, and it's not because 562 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 1: teams aren't running against them. They are top twelve and 563 00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:27,280 Speaker 1: carries against, but bottom five and yards allowed. That means 564 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 1: they are a legit run defense. So I'm not liking 565 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 1: to Abdula here and THEO Rittic I still can't do it. 566 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:34,440 Speaker 1: He's on the bench as well. He's basically been benchable 567 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 1: all year. You might as well start THEO huxable at 568 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:45,080 Speaker 1: this point. That was very impressive. I came right off 569 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 1: the top of the head. Really, I can't tell you 570 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:50,360 Speaker 1: didn't put hours and hours of work out of that. Uh. 571 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:53,800 Speaker 1: The yards per carry Cleveland is still number one in 572 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 1: opposing yards per carry at two point nine. That's it. 573 00:29:57,800 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 1: They are sneaky good run defense. Giants take on the 574 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:04,400 Speaker 1: forty niners already told you Orleans Darkwa and Wayne Goldman. 575 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:06,680 Speaker 1: Where my code take a chance on me running backs. 576 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:08,280 Speaker 1: I want to see you do this with the ticking. 577 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:12,120 Speaker 1: Come on, do you think that's gonna phase a seasoned 578 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 1: radio like? Yeah, it doesn't mean I don't think I 579 00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 1: can get the matchup in under one minute. But I 580 00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 1: didn't say I could. All right, let's go to the 581 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 1: passing game. After a nice start to the season, the 582 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:26,440 Speaker 1: defenses regressed badly in their last seven games. They've allowed 583 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 1: either multiple touchdown passes or more than three hundred passing 584 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 1: yards in every game. And here's Eli Manning who comes 585 00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 1: in short handed for a month. He's played all these 586 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 1: good defenses, yet he's still thrown at least one touchdown 587 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 1: in every game since the opener. And this is the 588 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 1: easiest matchup since Week four when he faced Tampa and 589 00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 1: he rolled up two yards and two scores and that one. 590 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:49,400 Speaker 1: So I like Eli Manning. A B grade on Eli Manning, 591 00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 1: And if I like Manning means I like his really 592 00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 1: only two receiving options first, Sterling Shepherd. He was targeted 593 00:30:55,920 --> 00:31:00,080 Speaker 1: nine times last week nin and the Giants don't have 594 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 1: a lot of other options in the passing game. Only 595 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 1: two teams have allowed more passing touchdowns than the forty 596 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:09,360 Speaker 1: Niners and their slot corner Kwan Williams, who will be 597 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:15,280 Speaker 1: guarding Shepherd, primarily ranks as cornerback one hundred twelve by 598 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 1: Pro Football Focus. I believe one fifteen is the total 599 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 1: number that they've got. Evan Ingram isn't a great and 600 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:27,920 Speaker 1: by the way, Shepherds will be great. A grade for 601 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:30,280 Speaker 1: Evan Ingram on the season, the forty nine is are 602 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 1: a top ten defensive against tight ends, but they've given 603 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,440 Speaker 1: up a touchdown to the position in three straight weeks. 604 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 1: And here comes Ingram who has scored a touchdown in 605 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:43,440 Speaker 1: three straight weeks. He's averaging nine targets nine times over 606 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 1: the last five weeks and that is not going to 607 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:48,080 Speaker 1: change here. Let's go to the San Francisco side. You 608 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:51,120 Speaker 1: gotta be great in Carlos High, averaging over eighteen touches 609 00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 1: per game, and he'll get the bulk of the work 610 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 1: against the Giants, who ranked twenty four and rushing yards allowed, 611 00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 1: and they've given up over one hundred fifteen total yards 612 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 1: to back in every single game this season. Nine. That 613 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 1: is right, That's exactly right. Uh. Matt Breed is just 614 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 1: an afterthought in this offense now. And I've actually got 615 00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 1: some C grades on the passing game, because Brian, your 616 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:17,080 Speaker 1: giants stink against the past all of a sudden, all 617 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 1: of a sudden. Other than that part, uh C J. 618 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 1: Bethard C grade, he's his rushing prowess helps make him 619 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 1: a plausible by week fill and he's averaging thirty rushing 620 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 1: yards per game. On the ground, he scored twice in 621 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:32,280 Speaker 1: the in three full games. But his arm can ship 622 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:33,960 Speaker 1: in a little something here too. The Giants have allowed 623 00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 1: multiple passing touchdowns or three passing yards and five consecutive 624 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 1: games rolling into this one. And during that stretch, quarterbacks 625 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 1: have averaged just under three touchdowns per game. So even 626 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:50,200 Speaker 1: if c J. Bethard is half that good, that's one 627 00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 1: and a half touchdowns. We'll we'll take that. That earns 628 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 1: you a C grade around here. Since week four, the 629 00:32:57,160 --> 00:33:00,200 Speaker 1: Giants are the NFL's worst past defense. So CJ about 630 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 1: Room of the Sea, and then you mentioned Gerrit's Garrett 631 00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 1: Sellek was you take a chance on your receiver slash 632 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 1: tight end? And then Markus God is the only the 633 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 1: guy with a pulse. He gets a C grade as well. 634 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:13,480 Speaker 1: Since c J. Bethard took over, goodwin leads to forty 635 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,760 Speaker 1: niners and targets he had eight last week. Of course, 636 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 1: Pierre Garsona's out, the Giants get to North Jenkins back 637 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 1: from suspension team and duce suspension. What do you do 638 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:24,920 Speaker 1: by the way giant, do we, Brian, what do you 639 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:27,239 Speaker 1: we know? What he did? Uh? He laughed at Ben 640 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 1: mcadoo's hair. Do so suspend? And then apparently I'm gonna 641 00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 1: get suspended? Don't you know? I would say that he 642 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 1: Uh he besmirched the integrity of Ben mcadoo's barber. But 643 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 1: Benmark mcadoo's barber is a Tupperware bowl, so he probably didn't. 644 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,200 Speaker 1: They have a lot five wide receiver touchdowns in the 645 00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:48,000 Speaker 1: last two games. Your Giants have in seven wide receivers 646 00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 1: have hit at least fifty yards in the last three weeks. 647 00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:53,160 Speaker 1: Think about that, three games, seven different receivers have hit 648 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:56,120 Speaker 1: fifty yards. Goodwin is going to do that? There's Uh, 649 00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 1: he remains a C grade. I think we had time 650 00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 1: to time for one more. Let me look at our time, 651 00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 1: our clock kind of I got this, all right? You 652 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:08,480 Speaker 1: think you can do Steelers colts reasonably reasonably quickly? Maybe 653 00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:11,120 Speaker 1: all right? Uh, you don't want to commit to anything, 654 00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 1: I understand. Levan Bell is this week's fantasy Fonzie, Right, 655 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:20,399 Speaker 1: Brian the easiest day of them all? Uh. Antonio Brown 656 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:23,200 Speaker 1: also in a last year on Thanksgiving against Vante Davis, 657 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 1: Brown had nine yards and three touchdowns. But there's no 658 00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:29,239 Speaker 1: more Vante Davis Juju smith Schuster. He's getting a b. 659 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 1: Juju got his driver's license in the bye week after 660 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,000 Speaker 1: torching the Lions for a hundred and ninety three yards 661 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 1: in a touchdown. Before the bye, the Colts have allowed 662 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:39,320 Speaker 1: the most yards in the NFL to opposing wide receivers, 663 00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 1: and they've allowed a league high forty four completions of 664 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:46,320 Speaker 1: twenty yards or more. So Smith Schusters would be almost 665 00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 1: went to Martavis Bryant, but I have him on the bench. 666 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 1: He hasn't topped fifty yards since Week two, and he 667 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:54,680 Speaker 1: could say something stupid at any time and get benched 668 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:57,279 Speaker 1: halfway through the game, maybe on Instagram during the game 669 00:34:57,440 --> 00:35:02,359 Speaker 1: about how lousy Juju smith Schuster probably um Ben Roethlisberger. 670 00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 1: I gotta be on him. Three of the last five 671 00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:07,160 Speaker 1: quarterbacks to face the Colts of top three yards but 672 00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:10,399 Speaker 1: no quarterbacks top two touchdowns against Indie this year. It's 673 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:12,520 Speaker 1: pretty easy to run on them and they don't need 674 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 1: to pass that much to the game flow. Could have 675 00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:18,080 Speaker 1: Levian Bell touch on the ball thirty times plus over 676 00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 1: on the Colt side. It's a bench festival. T Y 677 00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:22,560 Speaker 1: Hilton's on the bench. Maybe it's a bold call to 678 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 1: put Hilton on the bench at home, where he's raked 679 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:28,080 Speaker 1: for years, but this season he's totally matchup dependent. He's 680 00:35:28,160 --> 00:35:30,720 Speaker 1: topped a hundred yards in three games this season against 681 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,920 Speaker 1: the Browns, the forty Niners, and last week against the Texans, 682 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:37,040 Speaker 1: whose defense is just garbage right now. In his other 683 00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:41,000 Speaker 1: six games, he's averaging two point five catches, thirty three 684 00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:45,880 Speaker 1: yards and no scores. Any competent defense whatsoever has just 685 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 1: locked him down. The Steelers have held every wide receiver 686 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:52,320 Speaker 1: this year to sixty one yards are less. That's crazy. 687 00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:55,359 Speaker 1: It's it's just nuts Frank Gore and Marlon Mack around 688 00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:57,960 Speaker 1: the bench. Max pass protection troubles are keeping him off 689 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:00,400 Speaker 1: the field. He allowed two sacks last week, one of 690 00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:02,880 Speaker 1: which turned into a fumble and a touchdown for the Texans. 691 00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:05,360 Speaker 1: That means he's not getting as many touches as Frank 692 00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:08,200 Speaker 1: Gore and really no back his top to forty eight 693 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 1: rush yards or scored against the Steelers in the last 694 00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:12,920 Speaker 1: three weeks, so it's a bad matchup for sets on 695 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,360 Speaker 1: the bench. Stafford was the only quarterback to top to 696 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:18,440 Speaker 1: fifty against the Steelers this season. Andy Dalton is the 697 00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:21,320 Speaker 1: only one who's thrown for two scores, and Jack Doyle, 698 00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:24,239 Speaker 1: who might be the bright spot on that offense, he's 699 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:26,040 Speaker 1: on the bench to no tight end is top to 700 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:29,200 Speaker 1: fifty eight yards against the Steelers this season. Only Tyler 701 00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 1: Croft and Adam Shaheen have scored a touchdown from the 702 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:36,520 Speaker 1: tight end position this year against the Steelers. It's just 703 00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 1: a bad matchup for the Colts. They're all Adam Shaheen, 704 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,160 Speaker 1: by the way. They gotta start playing him in Chicago. Left, 705 00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 1: we'll go to the phone lines. We got a couple 706 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:49,200 Speaker 1: of people a bit nice enough to hold Genie. Hello, Hi, 707 00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:53,560 Speaker 1: come hi guysa week and you guys told me to 708 00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:55,719 Speaker 1: start golf over cam and that was a great call. 709 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:58,160 Speaker 1: And I'm wondering, do I do that again this week? 710 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:02,000 Speaker 1: Goff camp? Is this going to be a weekly call 711 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:07,520 Speaker 1: every week? Not frek, I have got five spots higher. Yeah, 712 00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 1: We're gonna get into that matchup a little later. And 713 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 1: I've got good things to say about golf. I would 714 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:14,960 Speaker 1: I agree. I've got golf is my number six quarterback 715 00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:18,200 Speaker 1: for this week. I like him. Good luck, Jennie, anything else, 716 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:20,400 Speaker 1: because it's lightning round you could actually ask more than 717 00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:23,799 Speaker 1: one question. It's not late round. That's what I love 718 00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:27,360 Speaker 1: about it. Um. I started Baldwin on Thursday night, and 719 00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:29,520 Speaker 1: I have to pick one of these four. You've only 720 00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:31,520 Speaker 1: talked about two of them so far. So I have 721 00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:36,799 Speaker 1: punches Sterling, Shepherd, you do and Robbie Anderson. What would 722 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:39,080 Speaker 1: you do? Well? If you're looking for the home run ball, 723 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:41,440 Speaker 1: I think you go Juju Well, I think you go 724 00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:44,440 Speaker 1: Shepherd against the forty niners. And you like Robbie Anderson 725 00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:46,840 Speaker 1: as well. I like Robbie Anderson, and You've got a 726 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:49,640 Speaker 1: lot of good options. I would take Shepherd out of 727 00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,439 Speaker 1: that group. Personally, I think I would do You'll see 728 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:55,160 Speaker 1: the most targets. Thank you, Jeannie, appreciate the call. Will 729 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,239 Speaker 1: work in one more. Ben, you've been on hold since 730 00:37:58,280 --> 00:37:59,960 Speaker 1: the beginning of the show. Thank you for your patients 731 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 1: as well. Hey, guys, appreciate it. Um. All right, I 732 00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:08,239 Speaker 1: kind of got screwed with the Zeke taking over eventually, 733 00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:12,440 Speaker 1: which obviously we were all kind of expecting. So uh, 734 00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:16,959 Speaker 1: two of these three, Um, I'm currently playing Kenyan Drake 735 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:21,360 Speaker 1: and Funchs Or do I do like a rod Smith 736 00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:26,280 Speaker 1: McGuire and the Jets or Dan Lewis, Uh Davante Booker, 737 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:30,279 Speaker 1: Mark Davis Bryant are sitting in free agency, and well, 738 00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:33,279 Speaker 1: I have Kenyan Drake and Damian Williams on the bench 739 00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:35,799 Speaker 1: this week, and I actually do like Funchs a little 740 00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:39,120 Speaker 1: bit in this matchup. Uh, you listed so many guys 741 00:38:39,200 --> 00:38:43,080 Speaker 1: that I lost track of. Sorry, sorry McGuire from the 742 00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:47,879 Speaker 1: Jets or Dan Lewis. Yeah, neither of those are really 743 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:51,400 Speaker 1: doing much for me now. Uh yeah, I think Funci 744 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:54,719 Speaker 1: is the play. Then okay, can do one one quick? 745 00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 1: Yes you can. McCowen or cousins. I have to drop 746 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,560 Speaker 1: since I was a Zeke owner, I got Rod Smith 747 00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:05,279 Speaker 1: or I could drop like a mirror dollah for to 748 00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 1: do what from McCown. Yeah, yeah, from McCown, I have 749 00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,680 Speaker 1: cousins on my team. I'm looking at trying to get 750 00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:16,719 Speaker 1: a slight upgrade. Well, I think Josh is actually a 751 00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:20,120 Speaker 1: pretty big upgrade this week in particular. But I you know, 752 00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:22,200 Speaker 1: as as a Zke owner, I don't recommend you drop 753 00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:24,440 Speaker 1: Rod Smith. I think you could drop that duel at 754 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:27,239 Speaker 1: this point, as he's almost a sabotage drop candidate as well. 755 00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 1: It's just name value alone. He's not living up to it. Yeah, 756 00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 1: all right, thanks, Ben, appreciate the call. When we come back, 757 00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:38,880 Speaker 1: five Hot Questions the Devani's five Hot questions, see if 758 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:40,239 Speaker 1: you can go five and not with our panel of 759 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:45,040 Speaker 1: experts when we return. You're listening to Fantasy Football Weekly 760 00:39:45,400 --> 00:40:06,920 Speaker 1: on the Fan. Welcomer show is Fantasy Football Weekly on 761 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:10,080 Speaker 1: the Fan. Paul Churchi and Brian Johnson Matt Harrison with you. 762 00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:14,600 Speaker 1: Good morning. You found us two hours well, no three 763 00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:19,080 Speaker 1: hours early, uh, in response to the early Gopher game today. 764 00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 1: Let's face that everybody's listening to this on a podcast, right, yeah, 765 00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:24,840 Speaker 1: pretty much everybody's podcasting it. And if you are, we 766 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:28,080 Speaker 1: are very grateful because we had to reset our are 767 00:40:28,719 --> 00:40:30,680 Speaker 1: I didn't really like it. It wasn't our choice, by 768 00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:34,640 Speaker 1: the way, but the podcast, the whole podcast feed had 769 00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:37,680 Speaker 1: to be totally changed, so we wiped out years and 770 00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 1: years of reviews and rankings all got flushed. We had 771 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:44,759 Speaker 1: a like a four point nine five out of ten 772 00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:47,760 Speaker 1: out of five, four nine, five out of five ranking, 773 00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:50,759 Speaker 1: and all that got flushed. So we really appreciate people 774 00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:53,799 Speaker 1: who take the time to to rate and review the show. 775 00:40:55,480 --> 00:41:01,719 Speaker 1: It sounds funny. Question number one, first, I bet I 776 00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:04,320 Speaker 1: guess I should explain the sabotage drop before I do 777 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:06,360 Speaker 1: the hot question number one. For people that don't know, 778 00:41:06,520 --> 00:41:09,319 Speaker 1: the sabotage drop is when you drop a brand name, 779 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:12,120 Speaker 1: a player who you think is going to perform badly 780 00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:14,239 Speaker 1: for all or most of the rest of the year, 781 00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:17,120 Speaker 1: so that your opponents will pick them up and then 782 00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:21,719 Speaker 1: mistakenly start that guy. You should have said, listen, all y'all, yeah, 783 00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:25,040 Speaker 1: listen all y'all. Yeah, it's and you gotta play Beastie 784 00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 1: Boys while making a sabotage drop. It's a great point. Oh, 785 00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:30,960 Speaker 1: that have been perfect. Next time we'll do better. You 786 00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:36,759 Speaker 1: can boys sabotage on YouTube. Thank you. It's a good 787 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:41,600 Speaker 1: song anyway, great video, great video. Personally, I can't stand it, 788 00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:44,759 Speaker 1: and I know you planned it. I like sabotage and 789 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:48,480 Speaker 1: I also like the rare, the almost totally unlistened to 790 00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:53,440 Speaker 1: jazz album by the Beastie Boys that they released. Or 791 00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:56,440 Speaker 1: it's not all instrumental all instrumental gez No, it's not 792 00:41:56,600 --> 00:42:01,439 Speaker 1: Richard gs. I forgot about that Hot question Number one. 793 00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:08,120 Speaker 1: Do you sabotage drop Will Fuller? Matt Yes, it looks 794 00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:12,600 Speaker 1: like Fuller was completely touchdown dependent anyway, and that was 795 00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:15,799 Speaker 1: dependent on Deshaun Watson throwing the ball. And now it's 796 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:18,120 Speaker 1: Tom Savage and he's not going to throw three touchdowns 797 00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:20,759 Speaker 1: per game. If Savage can throw one per game, it's 798 00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,799 Speaker 1: going to go to DeAndre Hopkins or c J. Fedorowitz. 799 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:28,440 Speaker 1: Hopkins is averaged twenty four targets, not averaged. He's had 800 00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:31,240 Speaker 1: twenty four targets and six quarters. He's averaging four targets 801 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 1: per quarter from Tom Savage, he's getting all the work. 802 00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:39,680 Speaker 1: Let's jam up a roster spot with Will or Will Fuller. Yeah, 803 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:43,279 Speaker 1: there we go. You didn't get You should have listened 804 00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:45,120 Speaker 1: to this ahead of time. Who knows where the cursing 805 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:48,040 Speaker 1: might be. Yeah, well, let's hope not. But this one's 806 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:50,040 Speaker 1: this one's pretty clean. I think it is pretty I've 807 00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:52,800 Speaker 1: heard on the radio many times, although that might be 808 00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:55,000 Speaker 1: a radio I didn't know if if this is Brian, 809 00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:59,080 Speaker 1: I'm telling you all. Let a right. Uh yeah, I 810 00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:01,279 Speaker 1: got nothing much to really add here. Um, there are 811 00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:04,120 Speaker 1: some major roadblocks on fuller schedule to in Baltimore and 812 00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:07,120 Speaker 1: Jacksonville and key points of the fantasy season. So yeah, 813 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:09,399 Speaker 1: he he was catching a touchdown on every other pass 814 00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:12,440 Speaker 1: with DeShawn Watson that was a production that wasn't sustainable. 815 00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:14,839 Speaker 1: It certainly is not with Tom Savage at the Helm. 816 00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say not yet. And here's why I got. 817 00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:21,200 Speaker 1: I got two starts with him, and one of them 818 00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:23,880 Speaker 1: is in the first week of the playoffs. Week eleven 819 00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:27,280 Speaker 1: is Arizona. Patrick Peterson is gonna be on DeAndre Hopkins 820 00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:28,920 Speaker 1: and we all know the number two receiver, and those 821 00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:30,560 Speaker 1: games get fed. I want him for that game, but 822 00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:34,520 Speaker 1: most importantly Week fourteen against San Francisco, first week in 823 00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:37,200 Speaker 1: my playoffs, I'm gonna go win that first game in 824 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:39,880 Speaker 1: my playoffs with Will Fuller, and then I'm gonna do 825 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:43,440 Speaker 1: the sabotage drop week fifteen. Leading into the Week fifteen 826 00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:48,680 Speaker 1: game He's got Jacksonville and Pittsburgh. Think about how juicy 827 00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:52,560 Speaker 1: that sabotaged drop is gonna be. After the Week fourteen 828 00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:56,600 Speaker 1: thrashing against San Francisco, you drop him, some fool picks 829 00:43:56,680 --> 00:44:02,040 Speaker 1: him up against Jacksonville or Pits. That's the timing for 830 00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:06,040 Speaker 1: the sabotage drop on Will Fuller. Not yet, you can 831 00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:10,680 Speaker 1: just keep the shop hot. Question number two, Can I 832 00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:16,440 Speaker 1: sabotage drop DeMarco Murray, Brian Listen all of y'all. This 833 00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:20,400 Speaker 1: is not a sabotage. No, I am not sabotage dropping 834 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:23,600 Speaker 1: DeMarco Murray. He did slow and noticeably in the second 835 00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:25,800 Speaker 1: half last season, but last year he had a hundred 836 00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:29,120 Speaker 1: and sixty carries through his first eight games. This year, 837 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:32,120 Speaker 1: he has only carries through his first eight games. He 838 00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:34,800 Speaker 1: is practicing in full after suffering a minor knee injury 839 00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:36,960 Speaker 1: last week. I'm just holding on to him because we 840 00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 1: have Pittsburgh and Indian the next two weeks. Those are 841 00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:42,400 Speaker 1: great matchups for Murray. I'm not too excited about Houston 842 00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:44,840 Speaker 1: and in Arizona in the following weeks. But then there's 843 00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:47,800 Speaker 1: that was San Francisco forty Niners again in week fifteen 844 00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:51,439 Speaker 1: for DeMarco Murray. So I am holding. Despite Derrick Henry 845 00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:54,040 Speaker 1: eating to his workload, He's still a viable option, although 846 00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:57,400 Speaker 1: not in Elite one anymore. Brian hit all my points, 847 00:44:57,560 --> 00:45:00,800 Speaker 1: but also they get the Rams and the Fantasy playoffs, 848 00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:03,040 Speaker 1: and the Rams have been really bad against running backs 849 00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:06,160 Speaker 1: this year too, so two great matchups in the Fantasy 850 00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:10,280 Speaker 1: playoffs for DeMarco Murray. That's why you cannot sabotage dropping. 851 00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:13,000 Speaker 1: He's been worse than most people realize. In eight games 852 00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:17,080 Speaker 1: this year, he's had six flat out bad games out 853 00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:19,440 Speaker 1: of eight where you almost certainly wish you had not 854 00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:22,840 Speaker 1: started him. Six out of eight times. Here's DeMarco Murray's 855 00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:28,840 Speaker 1: average game. Forty nine rushing yards, fourteen receiving yards, and 856 00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:32,480 Speaker 1: a quarter of a touchdown. That's it. So what you're 857 00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:36,840 Speaker 1: saying is you sabotage drafted him. You sabotage yourself. And 858 00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:39,560 Speaker 1: to Brian's point, Brian was all over this in the preseason. 859 00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:45,560 Speaker 1: He was banging the drum to avoid DeMarco Murray's so 860 00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:48,640 Speaker 1: many sounds right now, there's so much happening right now. 861 00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:50,960 Speaker 1: They the basic boy, you should have put a peacock 862 00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:55,200 Speaker 1: in that song. I thought that sounded fantastic. Um. Your 863 00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:59,320 Speaker 1: ideal scenario, though, is to trade DeMarco Murray to the 864 00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:01,920 Speaker 1: Henry owner. Let that guy deal with this headache on 865 00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:03,560 Speaker 1: who to start or just start in both. You said 866 00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:05,960 Speaker 1: you you can play this angle. You don't have to 867 00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:08,279 Speaker 1: pick which one. You can start them both the rest 868 00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:11,560 Speaker 1: of the way. But if you can't trade him, yes, 869 00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:14,759 Speaker 1: DeMarco Murray is sabotage droppable. I think there's only two 870 00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:16,920 Speaker 1: games on the schedule where I feel like I can 871 00:46:17,040 --> 00:46:19,680 Speaker 1: reasonably start somebody who's bad six out of eight times, 872 00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:23,359 Speaker 1: and that's Indian, San Francisco and the San Francisco games. 873 00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:25,240 Speaker 1: Week fifteen, I'm already get knocked out of the playoffs, 874 00:46:25,239 --> 00:46:27,399 Speaker 1: so we got a start in week fourteen. Oh wait, 875 00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:32,879 Speaker 1: but week fourteen is the rim hot question number three, 876 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:37,879 Speaker 1: Which of the Eagles backs, if any, will emerge as 877 00:46:38,040 --> 00:46:43,120 Speaker 1: the most reliable fantasy starter? Matt, I was very happy 878 00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:45,560 Speaker 1: to see that you put if any on there. I'm 879 00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:48,120 Speaker 1: going to take that if any option and say none 880 00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:51,080 Speaker 1: of the above. I think that the Eagles will model 881 00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:53,040 Speaker 1: the running game the rest of the season after what 882 00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:55,680 Speaker 1: the Patriots do. From here on out, you'll see both 883 00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:58,880 Speaker 1: the giant blunt splitting touches, keeping them fresh for what 884 00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:01,640 Speaker 1: they hope is a deep la off run Corey Clement 885 00:47:01,719 --> 00:47:04,520 Speaker 1: and Wendel smallwater there to steal receptions and be change 886 00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:07,200 Speaker 1: of pace. Guys, I'm avoiding the whole running game here, 887 00:47:07,239 --> 00:47:09,600 Speaker 1: if I can. I think a gi just muddled muddied 888 00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:13,040 Speaker 1: the waters there. M hmm, Tony, can I get some 889 00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:18,880 Speaker 1: cypress hill while we discuss Lagarrett blunt? Please? It's and 890 00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:22,399 Speaker 1: it's not close here Lagarrett wants he's pretty bad. He's bad. 891 00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:25,640 Speaker 1: Despite his four point six yards per carry that sounds impressive, 892 00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:27,680 Speaker 1: it is not. When you take away his sixty eight 893 00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:30,120 Speaker 1: yard run against the Chargers, He's averaging just four yards 894 00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:32,200 Speaker 1: per carry. But wait, la Garrett one is good at 895 00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:36,320 Speaker 1: the stripe, right the negative ghost Rider. He is not 896 00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:39,520 Speaker 1: good at this stripe. He has eight attempts inside the 897 00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:43,120 Speaker 1: vibe for negative five yards in one touchdown. He is 898 00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:47,279 Speaker 1: the Snickel Fritz of running backs. Yes, nice, I don't 899 00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:49,840 Speaker 1: know what that means, but I'm assuming it's a cypress 900 00:47:49,880 --> 00:47:57,120 Speaker 1: hill repper have van Alright. In the old days and 901 00:47:57,200 --> 00:48:01,320 Speaker 1: in the harsher crueler days of Fantasy Football Weekly, we 902 00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:04,560 Speaker 1: would never have injected the if any into this. It 903 00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:07,600 Speaker 1: would have just laid there like a trap waiting to spring. 904 00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:11,239 Speaker 1: But for some reason, we're in a kinder, gentler time now, 905 00:48:11,440 --> 00:48:13,360 Speaker 1: and I threw the off any into the question and 906 00:48:13,480 --> 00:48:16,000 Speaker 1: really tipped my hand. The answer is none of these guys. 907 00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:18,520 Speaker 1: Last week is a great example of how frustrating this 908 00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:22,200 Speaker 1: timeshare is going to be. Even though the running game 909 00:48:22,239 --> 00:48:26,000 Speaker 1: was very successful in a blowout victory over Denver, they 910 00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:28,640 Speaker 1: ran the ball thirty seven times, which is not normal 911 00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:37,600 Speaker 1: for any team. Here's your here's your carries split twelve, nine, eight, 912 00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:42,880 Speaker 1: and five between four guys. And that's in a thirty 913 00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:48,480 Speaker 1: seven carry game, which is extremely unusual most games, it's 914 00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:50,560 Speaker 1: gonna be far less than that for all of them. 915 00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:53,879 Speaker 1: And here's the first problem, by the way. Problem number 916 00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:55,880 Speaker 1: one is, even if we were to just give you 917 00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:59,480 Speaker 1: the twelve, the nine, and the eight carries, that's not 918 00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:02,719 Speaker 1: enough to be successful. Twelve, nine and eight isn't enough. 919 00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:05,279 Speaker 1: We know that we need running backs to get the 920 00:49:05,320 --> 00:49:08,800 Speaker 1: ball more than that. The second problem is, I defy 921 00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:10,880 Speaker 1: listeners right now, tell me who is the twelve and 922 00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:12,799 Speaker 1: who is the nine and who is the eight? From 923 00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:16,960 Speaker 1: last week's box score from the Eagles? Can you correctly 924 00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:20,879 Speaker 1: assign those running backs to those spots? And if you can't, 925 00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:22,840 Speaker 1: that tells you everything you need to know about the 926 00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:25,440 Speaker 1: frustration you're going to have on a weekend and week out. Basis, 927 00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:29,800 Speaker 1: most weeks, somebody, some one of these running backs is 928 00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:32,040 Speaker 1: gonna have a good game. Good luck starting out who 929 00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:34,680 Speaker 1: it's gonna be. Most of the time, you're not gonna 930 00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:36,960 Speaker 1: know until after the game is over, and at that 931 00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:43,000 Speaker 1: point it is too late. Des hot question number four. 932 00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:44,919 Speaker 1: At the end of the day, are we gonna wish 933 00:49:44,960 --> 00:49:50,600 Speaker 1: we'd just dropped Jamis Winston now, Brian. Uh, Obviously we're 934 00:49:50,600 --> 00:49:53,320 Speaker 1: talking redraft leagues. Uh, and I'm gonna say yes, what 935 00:49:53,440 --> 00:49:55,600 Speaker 1: I hear shut down for a couple of weeks and 936 00:49:55,840 --> 00:49:59,239 Speaker 1: visiting Dr James Andrews. None of that bodes well for 937 00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:02,759 Speaker 1: a rebec, especially when you're dealing with a shoulder injury. Uh. 938 00:50:02,880 --> 00:50:05,279 Speaker 1: And Tampa Bay looks to be a noncontender. There's no 939 00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:08,080 Speaker 1: there's no reason to rush Winston back. Uh. They're on 940 00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:11,319 Speaker 1: by next week, then at Atlanta at Green Bay. Those 941 00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:13,120 Speaker 1: are decent matchups. So we don't even know if he's 942 00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:15,759 Speaker 1: gonna be playing then. And I don't know that's a 943 00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:18,040 Speaker 1: dead roster spot right now. So basically I am dropping 944 00:50:18,040 --> 00:50:21,439 Speaker 1: Winston right now. Tony can I get snoop doggs drop 945 00:50:21,480 --> 00:50:25,840 Speaker 1: it like it's hot. It's not really if you're in 946 00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:28,840 Speaker 1: a one quarterback league, I drop him. According to Fanball 947 00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:32,200 Speaker 1: strength of schedule calculator, they don't have another matchup left 948 00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:35,200 Speaker 1: on the on the docket against a bad defense. It's 949 00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:37,759 Speaker 1: all the middle of the packer Worse, his shoulder might 950 00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:39,960 Speaker 1: not be right until next season. There's gonna be a 951 00:50:40,040 --> 00:50:42,040 Speaker 1: new coach in Tampa next year. The locker room is 952 00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:44,480 Speaker 1: a mess. There's the hard knocks hangover, and I don't 953 00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:47,320 Speaker 1: want to try to eat any more. W's with Jamis Winston. 954 00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:51,600 Speaker 1: He visited Dr Andrews and that's never good. Sam Bradford 955 00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:54,920 Speaker 1: found himself on I R after visiting Dr Andrews as 956 00:50:55,080 --> 00:50:58,480 Speaker 1: as he was hobbling out of the lobby. That's how 957 00:50:58,560 --> 00:51:01,640 Speaker 1: factor I are, Andrew. That's right, Dr I R Andrews. 958 00:51:02,200 --> 00:51:05,600 Speaker 1: Um it suggests that team doctors don't like what they're seeing, 959 00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:07,719 Speaker 1: so they fly them off to Dr Andrews to see 960 00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:10,520 Speaker 1: if they can find some angle that they that they 961 00:51:10,840 --> 00:51:14,040 Speaker 1: haven't been able to find themselves. Um. I think Jamis 962 00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:16,120 Speaker 1: doesn't play for at least several weeks, and it's already 963 00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:18,000 Speaker 1: lost season for the Bucks right there. Two and six. 964 00:51:18,239 --> 00:51:20,640 Speaker 1: They're not going to the playoffs. And there's a very 965 00:51:20,719 --> 00:51:24,280 Speaker 1: real chance that even if he could play, let's advance 966 00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:27,000 Speaker 1: the clock three four weeks, week thirteen, a week fourteen, 967 00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:29,160 Speaker 1: they might say, you know what, we don't want to 968 00:51:29,160 --> 00:51:31,239 Speaker 1: go Andrew Luck on this thing. We don't want to 969 00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:33,960 Speaker 1: take a bad take a shoulder injury and make it 970 00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:36,880 Speaker 1: worse and then lose the next season, which would be 971 00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:40,000 Speaker 1: a very reasonable concern. Luck played on a bad shoulder 972 00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:42,200 Speaker 1: for far too long and you end up losing the 973 00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:45,719 Speaker 1: next season. And to your point earlier, the schedule is 974 00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:49,040 Speaker 1: not favorable. I got one favorable matchup left the whole way, 975 00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:51,040 Speaker 1: and all the rest are to your point, middle to 976 00:51:51,080 --> 00:51:54,239 Speaker 1: pack or worse. At the end of the day, you're 977 00:51:54,239 --> 00:52:00,640 Speaker 1: gonna wish you'd just dropped Jamis Winston hot Question number five. 978 00:52:01,040 --> 00:52:04,640 Speaker 1: Should Gronk owners implement the rarely used tight end handcuff 979 00:52:04,760 --> 00:52:07,959 Speaker 1: and nab mar tell Us Bennett Matt No. We thought 980 00:52:08,040 --> 00:52:10,279 Speaker 1: this would work out last year, but Bennett only showed 981 00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:12,880 Speaker 1: up in a couple of rare games in which Gronk 982 00:52:13,160 --> 00:52:18,120 Speaker 1: was active but injured, where Gronk was playing decoy. The 983 00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:21,480 Speaker 1: games which Gronk didn't play, Bennett wasn't involved. The games 984 00:52:21,520 --> 00:52:24,720 Speaker 1: which Gronk did play and was healthy, Bennett wasn't involved. 985 00:52:24,960 --> 00:52:28,399 Speaker 1: Plus the shoulder injury may still require surgery. That's why 986 00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:31,280 Speaker 1: the Packers cut him, because Bennett wanted to have season 987 00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:34,359 Speaker 1: ending surgery on his shoulder, and I don't know how 988 00:52:34,440 --> 00:52:36,440 Speaker 1: he passed the physical in New England and he's going 989 00:52:36,520 --> 00:52:40,640 Speaker 1: to play now, So no, don't pick him up. All right, Bryan, 990 00:52:41,320 --> 00:52:44,000 Speaker 1: nothing to add, full agreement there, I'll have this. He's 991 00:52:44,040 --> 00:52:47,240 Speaker 1: not good. You know, I liked him in the preseason. 992 00:52:47,320 --> 00:52:50,000 Speaker 1: I really thought that with Aaron Rodgers and the best 993 00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:52,200 Speaker 1: tight end Aaron Rodgers ever had, I really thought that 994 00:52:52,239 --> 00:52:53,960 Speaker 1: Bennett was going to be good. I rostered him on 995 00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:57,600 Speaker 1: several of my several of my own leagues, so I've 996 00:52:57,640 --> 00:53:02,040 Speaker 1: watched him very closely. He dropped passes, he appeared to 997 00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:04,799 Speaker 1: be in the wrong spot, he did nothing after the catch. 998 00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:08,000 Speaker 1: There's nothing to see here with Martelli s. Bennett. He 999 00:53:08,160 --> 00:53:10,880 Speaker 1: is all names and all He's all names and all excuses. 1000 00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:14,600 Speaker 1: All martellis S. Bennett is at this point, let's work 1001 00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:17,839 Speaker 1: in one quick matchup. That would be Jets at Buccaneers. Hey, 1002 00:53:17,920 --> 00:53:22,640 Speaker 1: that's me. I gotta find its hold on flipping pages. 1003 00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:24,680 Speaker 1: Here we go. What's the what's the revenge song we 1004 00:53:24,719 --> 00:53:27,919 Speaker 1: should be playing? Uh? There's a system of a down 1005 00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:30,640 Speaker 1: song called revenge. You I don't know if it's clean. 1006 00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:34,439 Speaker 1: I don't either, probably not. Um, yeah, I've got nothing 1007 00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:36,400 Speaker 1: for that revenge. I'm sure there are a lot of 1008 00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:38,200 Speaker 1: great revenge songs. I can't think of any of the 1009 00:53:38,239 --> 00:53:40,200 Speaker 1: top of my head. It is. It's only eight twelve. 1010 00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:43,400 Speaker 1: I can't be expected to be an encyclopedia of musical knowledge. 1011 00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:47,360 Speaker 1: At eight twelve in the morning, Jets take on the Buccaneers. 1012 00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:49,319 Speaker 1: On the Jet side, Josh mccowns might take a chance 1013 00:53:49,360 --> 00:53:51,400 Speaker 1: to me quarterback, but that it doesn't end there if 1014 00:53:51,440 --> 00:53:53,959 Speaker 1: I like, and by the way, a grade on Josh 1015 00:53:54,040 --> 00:53:58,520 Speaker 1: McCown he's my number eight quarterback this week. I love 1016 00:53:58,640 --> 00:54:01,319 Speaker 1: him as a described earlier. Let's stick with other parts 1017 00:54:01,320 --> 00:54:04,080 Speaker 1: of the passing game. Robby Anderson a B grade. He's 1018 00:54:04,120 --> 00:54:06,800 Speaker 1: taken over as the Jets top receivers, now scored in 1019 00:54:06,880 --> 00:54:10,839 Speaker 1: three straight games. He's averaging almost sixteen yards per catch, 1020 00:54:11,080 --> 00:54:13,240 Speaker 1: and he gets a great matchup against a Buck secondary 1021 00:54:13,320 --> 00:54:16,480 Speaker 1: that's given up eleven touchdowns to opposing receivers. That is 1022 00:54:16,560 --> 00:54:20,200 Speaker 1: the second most touchdowns to receivers in the league. I 1023 00:54:20,320 --> 00:54:23,400 Speaker 1: also like running opposite him. Jermaine Curse with a C grade. 1024 00:54:23,880 --> 00:54:25,759 Speaker 1: He's a low volume guy, curses, but he has a 1025 00:54:25,840 --> 00:54:29,440 Speaker 1: touchdown score and has mentioned Tampa Bay secondary give me 1026 00:54:29,480 --> 00:54:31,560 Speaker 1: up the second most wide receiver touchdowns. So it feels 1027 00:54:31,560 --> 00:54:34,440 Speaker 1: like it all comes together here. All but three of 1028 00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:40,279 Speaker 1: the wide receiver touchdowns they have allowed have oh yeah, 1029 00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:46,400 Speaker 1: number one revenge. There you go, this is what I 1030 00:54:46,440 --> 00:54:48,160 Speaker 1: was gonna play. And then google the list and it's 1031 00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:53,400 Speaker 1: that top revenge. So Uncle Joe is Dave Coolier going 1032 00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:57,279 Speaker 1: to be at this game? All but three of the 1033 00:54:57,320 --> 00:55:00,239 Speaker 1: wide receiver touchdowns that the Bucks have allowed if gone 1034 00:55:00,280 --> 00:55:03,680 Speaker 1: to non number one receivers, So that again works in 1035 00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:06,440 Speaker 1: Jermaine Curse his favor for a long time, Jermaine of 1036 00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:08,400 Speaker 1: this week, As you guys know, Jamaine Curse was might 1037 00:55:08,440 --> 00:55:10,800 Speaker 1: take a chance of a receiver, and I only pivoted 1038 00:55:10,840 --> 00:55:13,680 Speaker 1: to Adam Adam Humphrey because I think Adam humphreeze, so 1039 00:55:13,680 --> 00:55:16,319 Speaker 1: I think he is a deeper selection. How though they're 1040 00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:18,960 Speaker 1: most perfectly good and they're both on the available on 1041 00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:23,239 Speaker 1: the waiver wire. Is this the one that involves a 1042 00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:26,160 Speaker 1: movie theater at some point? Okay, that happened already. That 1043 00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:28,920 Speaker 1: already happened. Okay, normally you'd think it cats that I 1044 00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:32,439 Speaker 1: missed it, talked right through it. Austin Seferian Jenkins while 1045 00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:35,560 Speaker 1: I was staying with the passing game. Revenge Game. Well yeah, 1046 00:55:35,640 --> 00:55:39,480 Speaker 1: and of Revenge Angle has averaged only three catches for 1047 00:55:39,640 --> 00:55:42,520 Speaker 1: twenty three yards the last three weeks, which is which 1048 00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:44,720 Speaker 1: has gotta be worrisome. Is heads into a matchup against 1049 00:55:44,760 --> 00:55:47,200 Speaker 1: his former team. The Bucks have allowed the third fewest 1050 00:55:47,280 --> 00:55:49,640 Speaker 1: yards per game to opposing tight ends. He is a 1051 00:55:49,800 --> 00:55:53,120 Speaker 1: C grade. Let's go to the running game. Matt Forte 1052 00:55:53,239 --> 00:55:55,759 Speaker 1: is out. Belal Powell is a B grade. He'll get 1053 00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:57,960 Speaker 1: the majority of the work. He's been very reliable in 1054 00:55:58,040 --> 00:56:00,600 Speaker 1: that scenario over the past two years. When he gets 1055 00:56:00,640 --> 00:56:04,680 Speaker 1: all the work, he's really good. Five of the six 1056 00:56:05,080 --> 00:56:09,439 Speaker 1: non Forte games games that Fote missed, Powell put up big, 1057 00:56:09,640 --> 00:56:13,600 Speaker 1: big numbers. Last week Alvin Kamara rolled up eighty four 1058 00:56:13,719 --> 00:56:17,160 Speaker 1: receiving yards against Tampa Bay, and the week before that, 1059 00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:20,920 Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey rolled up fifty receiving yards. Paulo is a 1060 00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:24,040 Speaker 1: good dual threat. This week he gets a B grade. 1061 00:56:24,239 --> 00:56:27,360 Speaker 1: I'm putting Elijah McGuire on the bench. I don't know 1062 00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:29,759 Speaker 1: you could in a pinch, you could play him. But 1063 00:56:29,840 --> 00:56:31,879 Speaker 1: even with Forte out, I'm worried he doesn't do enough 1064 00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:33,480 Speaker 1: and he hasn't top more than two point three yards 1065 00:56:33,520 --> 00:56:35,520 Speaker 1: per cary since way back in Week four. I got 1066 00:56:35,560 --> 00:56:37,719 Speaker 1: all the good day to today it was a homecoming 1067 00:56:37,800 --> 00:56:43,400 Speaker 1: game for blal Powell from Wakeland, Florida, just east of Tampa. 1068 00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:47,600 Speaker 1: All right, let's go to the Tampa Bay side. Uh, 1069 00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:50,720 Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick was Bryant's take a chance on the quarterback. 1070 00:56:51,200 --> 00:56:53,600 Speaker 1: Some people are a little bit concerned after years there 1071 00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:55,799 Speaker 1: is the revenge angle. Some people who look concerned after 1072 00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:59,800 Speaker 1: years of throwing to the the players in green that 1073 00:57:00,120 --> 00:57:02,960 Speaker 1: Stu Beard will be a little disoriented and will and 1074 00:57:03,040 --> 00:57:05,880 Speaker 1: known for his interceptions anyway, will again throw to the 1075 00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:08,080 Speaker 1: players in green. Well, if he's known for his interceptions, 1076 00:57:08,120 --> 00:57:10,960 Speaker 1: he'll probably avoid the players in green. Maybe that's it 1077 00:57:12,239 --> 00:57:15,719 Speaker 1: double reverse psychology. Uh. Deshaun Jackson was already seeing a 1078 00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:18,480 Speaker 1: decent target number with at least six in every game 1079 00:57:18,800 --> 00:57:20,880 Speaker 1: heading into last week, and he'll get more. With Mike 1080 00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:23,919 Speaker 1: Evans out, Jackson's got a very winnable matchup against Jets 1081 00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:27,280 Speaker 1: cornerbacks Justin Burris and Darryl Roberts, and the Jets have 1082 00:57:27,360 --> 00:57:30,280 Speaker 1: allowed the fourth most receiving yards, second most touchdowns to 1083 00:57:30,360 --> 00:57:33,640 Speaker 1: whiteouts to Seawan Jackson, B grade here, I already gave 1084 00:57:33,680 --> 00:57:35,560 Speaker 1: you Adam Humphreys as might take a chance on me 1085 00:57:35,760 --> 00:57:39,520 Speaker 1: wide receiver in this matchup Cameron brad also a B grade. 1086 00:57:39,920 --> 00:57:41,880 Speaker 1: He's going up against the Jets team that's allowed the 1087 00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:44,960 Speaker 1: sixth most yards and tenth most receptions the tight ends, 1088 00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:49,440 Speaker 1: and this note from ESPN Ryan Fitzpatrick's got the league's 1089 00:57:49,520 --> 00:57:55,920 Speaker 1: top passer rating when targeting tight ends since nineteen touchdowns 1090 00:57:56,080 --> 00:57:58,840 Speaker 1: two tight ends, zero interceptions to tight ends. Think I 1091 00:57:58,920 --> 00:58:01,280 Speaker 1: passed that one onto you. Camer is going to be 1092 00:58:01,920 --> 00:58:03,920 Speaker 1: the best tight end in the league this week. I 1093 00:58:04,160 --> 00:58:06,520 Speaker 1: just like it. You're throwing down the gauntlet. Last guy 1094 00:58:06,600 --> 00:58:10,360 Speaker 1: will mention Doug Martin just eight carries for seven yards 1095 00:58:10,480 --> 00:58:12,520 Speaker 1: last week, but the Bucks fell behind early in the game. 1096 00:58:12,560 --> 00:58:14,760 Speaker 1: Script went upside down. Martin is gonna get a lot 1097 00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:17,040 Speaker 1: more work this week. With Winston out and Evans out. 1098 00:58:17,240 --> 00:58:19,320 Speaker 1: He faces a Jets team that's allowed the tenth most 1099 00:58:19,400 --> 00:58:22,200 Speaker 1: rushing yards. They've allowed just one rushing touchdown though in 1100 00:58:22,240 --> 00:58:26,000 Speaker 1: the past seven games. Doug Martin ce grade is startable, 1101 00:58:26,040 --> 00:58:27,919 Speaker 1: but only at a C level. When we come back, 1102 00:58:28,520 --> 00:58:31,800 Speaker 1: wrap up some more of our matchups, including Texans taking 1103 00:58:31,880 --> 00:58:34,800 Speaker 1: on the Rams. Can you start any part of the 1104 00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:38,400 Speaker 1: Texans passing game? Find out when we come back. Your 1105 00:58:38,480 --> 00:59:16,240 Speaker 1: distinct of Fantasy Football weekly on the fan Welcome back 1106 00:59:16,280 --> 00:59:19,280 Speaker 1: to the show Fantasy Football Weekly on Fan Culture and 1107 00:59:19,320 --> 00:59:22,360 Speaker 1: Brian Johnson Matt Harrison with you. Plenty of matchups to 1108 00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:24,360 Speaker 1: get to over the course of this segment and then 1109 00:59:24,520 --> 00:59:29,320 Speaker 1: uh last segment, Lightning Round Premature speculation coming up next. 1110 00:59:29,440 --> 00:59:33,480 Speaker 1: Let's see Texans take on the Rams. Brian Ram, secondary's 1111 00:59:33,600 --> 00:59:36,960 Speaker 1: pretty good in the Texans quarterback is really bad. What 1112 00:59:37,040 --> 00:59:40,400 Speaker 1: do you make of the passing game in this matchup? Yeah, 1113 00:59:40,480 --> 00:59:44,360 Speaker 1: I mean you're still starring DeAndre Hopkins as une Everyone 1114 00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:46,520 Speaker 1: probably already knows he only gets a bee though he 1115 00:59:46,640 --> 00:59:49,040 Speaker 1: has seen twenty four targets in a game and a half. 1116 00:59:49,480 --> 00:59:52,880 Speaker 1: With Tom Savage at quarterback, that's sixteen targets a game. Uh, 1117 00:59:53,080 --> 00:59:55,080 Speaker 1: he'll probably see double digits in this one. But the 1118 00:59:55,200 --> 00:59:57,920 Speaker 1: Rams have only allowed four wide receiver touchdowns all seasons. 1119 00:59:57,920 --> 01:00:00,760 Speaker 1: So don't get your hopes too high with Hopkins this week. 1120 01:00:01,280 --> 01:00:03,360 Speaker 1: And you probably shouldn't have any hopes for will Fuller. 1121 01:00:03,480 --> 01:00:06,080 Speaker 1: I'll give him a very very tentative see just to 1122 01:00:06,120 --> 01:00:08,960 Speaker 1: see if you can actually don't put him on the bench. 1123 01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:12,360 Speaker 1: Screw it. Targets last week alright, had just two catches. 1124 01:00:12,560 --> 01:00:15,240 Speaker 1: Savage is not good. Uh. The one thing that maybe 1125 01:00:15,280 --> 01:00:17,440 Speaker 1: going for that Fuller has going for him is all 1126 01:00:17,520 --> 01:00:19,800 Speaker 1: four touchdowns that the Rams have allowed to wide receivers 1127 01:00:19,840 --> 01:00:22,840 Speaker 1: have gone to secondary options. But I'm just not liking 1128 01:00:22,920 --> 01:00:25,080 Speaker 1: him a lot with Savage under center. Are you saying 1129 01:00:25,120 --> 01:00:28,080 Speaker 1: Savage is not macho? Yeah? I'm not even gonna voice 1130 01:00:28,120 --> 01:00:31,520 Speaker 1: in this one. I'm just so no one knowing likes 1131 01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:34,240 Speaker 1: Tom Savage right now? Who has? And he's stock in 1132 01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:36,800 Speaker 1: the Texans. I do like c J. Fiedoroitz, so he 1133 01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:39,000 Speaker 1: just might take a chance of a receiver. Giants tight 1134 01:00:39,080 --> 01:00:41,240 Speaker 1: ends a twelve targets against the Rams last week, so 1135 01:00:41,360 --> 01:00:44,280 Speaker 1: Fedor Wooz could see some volume Tom Savages on the bench. 1136 01:00:44,520 --> 01:00:46,400 Speaker 1: The Rams are top ten against the past with having 1137 01:00:46,440 --> 01:00:48,800 Speaker 1: just a hundred seventy six yards per game over their 1138 01:00:48,800 --> 01:00:52,200 Speaker 1: past five games, just five total passing touchdowns during that span, 1139 01:00:52,640 --> 01:00:55,160 Speaker 1: and I'll give Lamar Miller as ce. The Rams are 1140 01:00:55,240 --> 01:00:57,880 Speaker 1: fifth worst against the run. Miller is a borderline b 1141 01:00:58,120 --> 01:01:00,520 Speaker 1: but he just doesn't put up big numbers. I know, 1142 01:01:00,640 --> 01:01:02,920 Speaker 1: threat from the passing game, no threat from the passing game. 1143 01:01:02,960 --> 01:01:05,920 Speaker 1: I threw allowing four point six yards per carry. Are 1144 01:01:05,960 --> 01:01:08,080 Speaker 1: the Rams only two teams have failed to rush for 1145 01:01:08,080 --> 01:01:10,520 Speaker 1: a hundred yards or score a touchdown against them this year, 1146 01:01:10,840 --> 01:01:14,080 Speaker 1: so Miller is certainly startable. Over to his counterpart at 1147 01:01:14,120 --> 01:01:16,400 Speaker 1: running back on the l A side, Todd Gurley gets 1148 01:01:16,400 --> 01:01:19,360 Speaker 1: an A despite Houston being ranked second against the run, 1149 01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:21,560 Speaker 1: But when you look further into that, they faced the 1150 01:01:21,640 --> 01:01:26,600 Speaker 1: uninspiring backfields of Cincinnati, New England, Cleveland, Seattle in Indianapolis 1151 01:01:26,720 --> 01:01:30,080 Speaker 1: lately girly averaging touches and a hundred twenty eight combo 1152 01:01:30,200 --> 01:01:33,720 Speaker 1: yards per game. He's an obvious bell cow auto start. Um. 1153 01:01:33,920 --> 01:01:35,920 Speaker 1: I like the receivers for sure. For l A. I'm 1154 01:01:35,960 --> 01:01:38,760 Speaker 1: gonna give each one of the Sammy Watkins, Robert Woods 1155 01:01:38,800 --> 01:01:42,520 Speaker 1: and Cooper Cup. Uh. We'll start with what Watkins great 1156 01:01:42,600 --> 01:01:45,680 Speaker 1: matchup here? Probably the high Watkins probably has the highest 1157 01:01:45,680 --> 01:01:48,160 Speaker 1: ceiling but certainly the lowest floor. But the Texans have 1158 01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:51,120 Speaker 1: allowed five different wide receivers to top fifty yards and 1159 01:01:51,200 --> 01:01:53,400 Speaker 1: three to top one hundred yards over the last two 1160 01:01:53,480 --> 01:01:56,080 Speaker 1: games alone. So you gotta like Robert Woods, who leads 1161 01:01:56,080 --> 01:01:58,880 Speaker 1: the rams and targets receptions and receiving yards, and and 1162 01:01:59,040 --> 01:02:01,400 Speaker 1: Robert Woods is a bol so you're this is the 1163 01:02:01,520 --> 01:02:04,880 Speaker 1: highest scoring offense in the NFL. And Robert Woods leads 1164 01:02:04,960 --> 01:02:07,760 Speaker 1: the team and targets receptions and yards, and he's available 1165 01:02:07,880 --> 01:02:12,400 Speaker 1: right now on that team. Well, well, I think he 1166 01:02:12,440 --> 01:02:14,480 Speaker 1: only has the two touchdowns he scored last week. I 1167 01:02:14,600 --> 01:02:17,840 Speaker 1: think he might have three. But yeah, it's you know, 1168 01:02:17,960 --> 01:02:20,440 Speaker 1: it's ridiculous that he's available in so many leagues. Anybody 1169 01:02:20,480 --> 01:02:23,280 Speaker 1: else think this could be the Watkins breakout game? It's 1170 01:02:23,320 --> 01:02:26,920 Speaker 1: worth rolling it kind of is. He's so overdue for 1171 01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:31,080 Speaker 1: a big game and uh, Cooper cup real quick second 1172 01:02:31,160 --> 01:02:33,080 Speaker 1: in the NFL and red zone targets. He's certainly is 1173 01:02:33,080 --> 01:02:35,000 Speaker 1: a factor there, So I like him as well. Uh, 1174 01:02:35,240 --> 01:02:37,920 Speaker 1: you can't and you can start Tyler Higbee. I'll give 1175 01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:40,600 Speaker 1: him to see. The Texans are the sixth worst defense 1176 01:02:40,600 --> 01:02:43,080 Speaker 1: against tight ends, allowing six catches and sixty two yards 1177 01:02:43,120 --> 01:02:45,600 Speaker 1: per game to the position. And for all these reasons, 1178 01:02:45,720 --> 01:02:49,480 Speaker 1: Jared Goff and obvious a Houston has allowed has allowed 1179 01:02:49,520 --> 01:02:51,400 Speaker 1: four of the last six quarterbacks they face to go 1180 01:02:51,480 --> 01:02:54,000 Speaker 1: over three yards and throw for multiple touchdowns. The two 1181 01:02:54,080 --> 01:02:56,960 Speaker 1: that didn't were Kevin Hogan and the Marcus Mariotta Matt 1182 01:02:57,120 --> 01:03:01,280 Speaker 1: Castle combo. A couple of weeks ago, the way the 1183 01:03:01,320 --> 01:03:04,040 Speaker 1: way that you were ended that sense, it sounded like 1184 01:03:04,080 --> 01:03:07,600 Speaker 1: there might be more so the other team, but then 1185 01:03:09,320 --> 01:03:11,680 Speaker 1: I won't do the Texans again. Thank you. We already 1186 01:03:11,720 --> 01:03:14,520 Speaker 1: we already survived that one once. It's early Cowboys take 1187 01:03:14,560 --> 01:03:16,480 Speaker 1: on the Falcons. No Zeke. What do you think of 1188 01:03:16,520 --> 01:03:19,920 Speaker 1: the running back situation there, Matt? Just in case if 1189 01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:22,439 Speaker 1: Zeke is suddenly not suspended, I just want to mention 1190 01:03:22,560 --> 01:03:26,480 Speaker 1: he's an a start. Thank you. Uh. I'm I got 1191 01:03:26,520 --> 01:03:28,880 Speaker 1: Alfred Morris and Darren McFadden on the bench. If that 1192 01:03:28,960 --> 01:03:30,760 Speaker 1: doesn't change, I think you're headed for a three headed 1193 01:03:30,800 --> 01:03:34,880 Speaker 1: rushing attack. Morris will probably end up with around twelve touches. 1194 01:03:35,160 --> 01:03:37,760 Speaker 1: McFadden will probably get six to eight. Rod Smith is 1195 01:03:37,800 --> 01:03:39,479 Speaker 1: to take a chance on me, guy that I would 1196 01:03:39,520 --> 01:03:41,919 Speaker 1: want to play. I think I'll think McFadden even gets 1197 01:03:41,960 --> 01:03:44,120 Speaker 1: the sixth eight. I think that's Rod Smith. Now it 1198 01:03:44,200 --> 01:03:46,000 Speaker 1: could be. I think Smith's gonna be second in the 1199 01:03:46,120 --> 01:03:48,560 Speaker 1: in the in the eating order, he may be second 1200 01:03:48,600 --> 01:03:50,640 Speaker 1: in command. But Deak Prescott I think is the best 1201 01:03:50,760 --> 01:03:53,200 Speaker 1: runner in this game. He gets an a. The Falcons 1202 01:03:53,240 --> 01:03:55,920 Speaker 1: have allowed the tenth most rushing yards to the quarterback 1203 01:03:55,960 --> 01:03:58,800 Speaker 1: position this year, and maybe the lack of Zeke and 1204 01:03:58,840 --> 01:04:01,280 Speaker 1: an injury to dead his forces Dak to call his 1205 01:04:01,320 --> 01:04:03,520 Speaker 1: own number near the goal line this week. In fact, 1206 01:04:03,640 --> 01:04:06,560 Speaker 1: you know what, I'm gonna call it, Dak Prescott rushing 1207 01:04:06,640 --> 01:04:09,440 Speaker 1: touchdown this week. I think he leads all quarterbacks in 1208 01:04:09,520 --> 01:04:14,760 Speaker 1: rushing yardage this year. Dez Bryant slash Terrence Williams. If healthy, 1209 01:04:15,760 --> 01:04:18,040 Speaker 1: des is a B. Williams is a SEA. But both 1210 01:04:18,080 --> 01:04:21,320 Speaker 1: are dealing with ankle injuries. If Bryant doesn't go, Williams 1211 01:04:21,520 --> 01:04:23,840 Speaker 1: might be bumped up to a B. If both don't go, 1212 01:04:24,280 --> 01:04:27,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna look at Bryce Butler, who's averaging eighteen point 1213 01:04:27,120 --> 01:04:29,800 Speaker 1: six yards per carry, and he's caught five touchdowns from 1214 01:04:29,880 --> 01:04:32,720 Speaker 1: Dak over the last two years. If either is ruled out, 1215 01:04:32,840 --> 01:04:35,640 Speaker 1: I'll move Butler up to a SEA. But if both go, 1216 01:04:35,880 --> 01:04:38,120 Speaker 1: I don't think that I'd play him. Dak Prescott is 1217 01:04:38,160 --> 01:04:41,480 Speaker 1: six the monst quarterbacks in rushing yards. Sorry, not even 1218 01:04:41,520 --> 01:04:45,200 Speaker 1: close to first. Incorrect. We're not gonna where he's number 1219 01:04:45,240 --> 01:04:48,560 Speaker 1: one rushing touchdown. There we go. Four rushing touchdowns for 1220 01:04:48,640 --> 01:04:52,480 Speaker 1: Dak Prescott one five this week, maybe even six, not 1221 01:04:52,800 --> 01:04:55,960 Speaker 1: six touchdowns this week. No, I might get number five 1222 01:04:56,000 --> 01:04:58,800 Speaker 1: and number six. We're not gonna chase Cole Beasley's two 1223 01:04:58,840 --> 01:05:01,080 Speaker 1: red zone touchdown past is last week because he only 1224 01:05:01,160 --> 01:05:04,240 Speaker 1: has eleven targets over the last three games and Jason 1225 01:05:04,280 --> 01:05:06,320 Speaker 1: Witten is on the bench. It's true that injuries and 1226 01:05:06,360 --> 01:05:08,840 Speaker 1: suspensions could mean a few more looks for Witten, but 1227 01:05:08,960 --> 01:05:11,680 Speaker 1: he's facing a defense that's allowing four catches and forty 1228 01:05:11,720 --> 01:05:15,320 Speaker 1: eight yards to tight ends this season. On the Atlanta side, 1229 01:05:15,400 --> 01:05:17,920 Speaker 1: I got Davante Freeman with a B and Tevin Coleman 1230 01:05:17,960 --> 01:05:20,080 Speaker 1: with a C. Freeman has been held to twelve or 1231 01:05:20,160 --> 01:05:23,280 Speaker 1: fewer carries in every game since Week four. That's kind 1232 01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:26,280 Speaker 1: of surprising. And Dallas is only allowing eighty rush yards 1233 01:05:26,320 --> 01:05:29,400 Speaker 1: per game to the running back position. Still, the Cowboys 1234 01:05:29,440 --> 01:05:32,320 Speaker 1: are allowing the seventh most receptions and receiving yards to 1235 01:05:32,400 --> 01:05:35,160 Speaker 1: rush to running backs, and I thought that i'd find 1236 01:05:35,240 --> 01:05:38,360 Speaker 1: Tevin Coleman was leading more more of the receiving categories. 1237 01:05:38,520 --> 01:05:42,320 Speaker 1: It's like completely even just about by like one or 1238 01:05:42,400 --> 01:05:45,320 Speaker 1: two in every category. So that's why Freeman gets the 1239 01:05:45,400 --> 01:05:48,120 Speaker 1: B and Coleman gets the SEA because Freeman just gets 1240 01:05:48,160 --> 01:05:51,160 Speaker 1: more touches. Matt Ryan gets a B. It's a home 1241 01:05:51,240 --> 01:05:53,920 Speaker 1: game against the bottom ten defense. Dallas has allowed the 1242 01:05:54,040 --> 01:05:57,000 Speaker 1: tenth most passing touchdowns in the eighth worst passer rating 1243 01:05:57,080 --> 01:06:00,640 Speaker 1: in the league. Defensively, Julio Jones gets an A. Do 1244 01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:03,440 Speaker 1: you think Julio Jones is thinking fondly of his season 1245 01:06:03,520 --> 01:06:06,560 Speaker 1: high hundred and eighteen yards last week? I think he's 1246 01:06:06,600 --> 01:06:09,400 Speaker 1: thinking of the easiest touchdown pass that ever dropped in 1247 01:06:09,480 --> 01:06:13,240 Speaker 1: the world. He's he's got a revenge game against himself 1248 01:06:13,360 --> 01:06:15,320 Speaker 1: this week, and he's going to score a touchdown this week. 1249 01:06:15,840 --> 01:06:18,280 Speaker 1: Mohammedson new I'm giving a B to the Cowboys have 1250 01:06:18,400 --> 01:06:21,680 Speaker 1: been specifically bad against slot receivers and woos running about 1251 01:06:21,720 --> 01:06:25,520 Speaker 1: two thirds of his routes from the slot. Uh Larry Fitzgerald, 1252 01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:28,640 Speaker 1: Jamison Crowder, Cooper cup Sterling Shepherd all had big days 1253 01:06:28,680 --> 01:06:31,200 Speaker 1: out of the slot against the Cowboys. Lastly, I'll mention 1254 01:06:31,280 --> 01:06:35,080 Speaker 1: Austin Hooper. He's not a good play because his name 1255 01:06:35,240 --> 01:06:39,160 Speaker 1: is not Travis Kelsey. Non. Travis Kelsey tight ends have 1256 01:06:39,360 --> 01:06:42,000 Speaker 1: only scored once this year against the Cowboys, and Dallas 1257 01:06:42,080 --> 01:06:46,120 Speaker 1: hasn't allowed Non Kelsey's two top fifty two yards this season. 1258 01:06:46,240 --> 01:06:49,400 Speaker 1: So did Jason Ken Jason Kelsey do against He didn't 1259 01:06:49,440 --> 01:06:51,920 Speaker 1: do that. Well, OK, it's not even a matter. You 1260 01:06:52,240 --> 01:06:54,000 Speaker 1: can't just be a Kelsey, you have to be a 1261 01:06:54,120 --> 01:06:58,680 Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey. That's true. At that Bengals take on the Titans, 1262 01:06:59,480 --> 01:07:02,520 Speaker 1: I think we squeeze. Uh uh, Nope, We're not gonna 1263 01:07:02,520 --> 01:07:04,280 Speaker 1: do it. We're gonna take a break, and when we 1264 01:07:04,360 --> 01:07:07,720 Speaker 1: come back Bengals taking on the Titans, we'll tell you 1265 01:07:07,760 --> 01:07:09,360 Speaker 1: if you can, if you can go back to the 1266 01:07:09,400 --> 01:07:13,080 Speaker 1: well with Andy Dalton after the crappy, crappy game he 1267 01:07:13,160 --> 01:07:17,280 Speaker 1: put up against the Jaguars. When we return your distinctive 1268 01:07:17,360 --> 01:07:35,800 Speaker 1: Fantasy Football Weekly on the Fan, Welcome back to the show. 1269 01:07:36,080 --> 01:07:40,840 Speaker 1: Final segments of Fantasy Football Weekly. I'm the fans. Let's 1270 01:07:41,160 --> 01:07:45,240 Speaker 1: let's knock down our last couple of Oh jeez, yeah, 1271 01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:47,720 Speaker 1: we have three matchups to go. We gotta zip through 1272 01:07:47,800 --> 01:07:51,520 Speaker 1: these Bengals taking on the Titans. Uh aj Green's and 1273 01:07:51,560 --> 01:07:53,800 Speaker 1: obviously I'm not gonna expand on that. We'll go to 1274 01:07:53,960 --> 01:07:56,280 Speaker 1: Andy Dalton, who was a b prior to running into 1275 01:07:56,400 --> 01:08:00,440 Speaker 1: the Jacksonville buzz saw last week, and they humble everybody. 1276 01:08:00,960 --> 01:08:03,720 Speaker 1: He was averaging. Dalton was averaging two hundred forty yards 1277 01:08:03,840 --> 01:08:06,960 Speaker 1: and two point two touchdowns in the Bill Laser offensive 1278 01:08:07,000 --> 01:08:11,040 Speaker 1: coordinator era. He faced the Titans defense that's seen some 1279 01:08:11,160 --> 01:08:13,800 Speaker 1: of the worst quarterbacking in the league of late Joe 1280 01:08:13,880 --> 01:08:17,160 Speaker 1: Flacco and DeShawn Kaiser and Cody Kessler and Jacoby Brissette 1281 01:08:17,160 --> 01:08:21,040 Speaker 1: and Jake Cutler. The last two competent quarterbacks that the 1282 01:08:21,160 --> 01:08:25,000 Speaker 1: Titans faced, Deshaun Watson and Russell Wilson each through for 1283 01:08:25,240 --> 01:08:28,880 Speaker 1: four touchdowns against the Titans secondary. I think Dalton's sitting 1284 01:08:28,880 --> 01:08:31,320 Speaker 1: on potentially a very nice game here. B grade for him, 1285 01:08:31,880 --> 01:08:36,000 Speaker 1: B grade for Tyler Croft. He has successfully replaced Tyler 1286 01:08:36,120 --> 01:08:38,920 Speaker 1: Eiffort in the over the last five weeks. He's averaged 1287 01:08:39,160 --> 01:08:42,040 Speaker 1: four catches fifty two yards and he's caught almost a 1288 01:08:42,120 --> 01:08:45,719 Speaker 1: touchdown per game. That is solid tight end production. Production 1289 01:08:45,760 --> 01:08:47,479 Speaker 1: in a year where it's hard to find that he 1290 01:08:47,840 --> 01:08:51,120 Speaker 1: faces an average tight end Titans defense against tight ends. 1291 01:08:51,479 --> 01:08:53,400 Speaker 1: But I think there's a game plan here that's going 1292 01:08:53,439 --> 01:08:56,720 Speaker 1: to be strongly emphasizing the passing game, which brings us 1293 01:08:56,760 --> 01:08:59,479 Speaker 1: to Joe Mixon and why he's only a C grade here. 1294 01:08:59,680 --> 01:09:02,439 Speaker 1: Ay he's averaging just two point nine yards per carry, 1295 01:09:02,479 --> 01:09:05,760 Speaker 1: which is brutal. He has top sixty rushing yards one 1296 01:09:05,880 --> 01:09:08,599 Speaker 1: time all year, and the Titans, coming with a good 1297 01:09:08,720 --> 01:09:14,200 Speaker 1: run defense, their top ten in rushing touchdowns allowed yards 1298 01:09:14,280 --> 01:09:17,120 Speaker 1: per rush against They're giving up just three point four 1299 01:09:17,240 --> 01:09:20,439 Speaker 1: yards per carry. Jeremy Hill is out for this game, 1300 01:09:20,520 --> 01:09:22,200 Speaker 1: and that does help makes it a little bit. If 1301 01:09:22,280 --> 01:09:23,840 Speaker 1: there are any goal line carries to be had, he 1302 01:09:23,840 --> 01:09:25,960 Speaker 1: would get them. And that's largely why he gets a 1303 01:09:26,000 --> 01:09:29,600 Speaker 1: C grade here. And if I'm nervous about mixing, I 1304 01:09:29,720 --> 01:09:32,000 Speaker 1: like his backup Giovanni Bernard, even less he's on the bench. 1305 01:09:32,080 --> 01:09:34,120 Speaker 1: Let's go to the Tennessee side of this or I've 1306 01:09:34,160 --> 01:09:36,040 Speaker 1: got a handful of Sea grades, and that is it 1307 01:09:36,439 --> 01:09:39,479 Speaker 1: will start with the passing game. Marcus Mariotte is actually 1308 01:09:39,520 --> 01:09:42,439 Speaker 1: on the bench. It's a tough matchup against Cincinnati. They 1309 01:09:42,479 --> 01:09:45,719 Speaker 1: ranked third in passing yards allowed opposing quarterbacks averaging barely 1310 01:09:45,800 --> 01:09:50,840 Speaker 1: one touchdown per game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Now is 1311 01:09:50,880 --> 01:09:53,760 Speaker 1: Hamsting is healed, um, But I don't think the legs 1312 01:09:53,840 --> 01:09:56,080 Speaker 1: help here. The the Bengals have seen a bunch of 1313 01:09:56,160 --> 01:09:59,479 Speaker 1: mobile quarterbacks this year, Aaron Rodgers and DeShawn Kyser and 1314 01:09:59,560 --> 01:10:05,040 Speaker 1: Tyrode Tailor and Jacoby Brissette, and they averaged ten scoreless 1315 01:10:05,240 --> 01:10:08,160 Speaker 1: rushing yards. So you're only gonna get what Marcus Mariota's 1316 01:10:08,200 --> 01:10:09,800 Speaker 1: arm can give you. And I don't think it's gonna 1317 01:10:09,800 --> 01:10:12,680 Speaker 1: be that much. That's part of why Corey Davis is 1318 01:10:12,720 --> 01:10:15,280 Speaker 1: down to a sea level. Got his feet what last 1319 01:10:15,360 --> 01:10:18,439 Speaker 1: week after missing seven games and knocked some rustoff. Kind 1320 01:10:18,479 --> 01:10:20,840 Speaker 1: Of like him because he should match up against Adam Jones, 1321 01:10:20,840 --> 01:10:23,840 Speaker 1: who Pro Football Focus ranks as their ninety one cornerback. 1322 01:10:24,160 --> 01:10:29,400 Speaker 1: Richard Matthews barely a C grade here right side receivers, 1323 01:10:29,439 --> 01:10:32,040 Speaker 1: which he primarily is. I've had some luck because they're 1324 01:10:32,040 --> 01:10:35,920 Speaker 1: getting Drake Kirkpatrick, who ranks at Pro football Focus. So 1325 01:10:36,720 --> 01:10:39,599 Speaker 1: I'm lukewarm on Richard Matthews, but you know his bed. 1326 01:10:39,680 --> 01:10:43,320 Speaker 1: He's sixty seventy yards every game, and that's not so bad. 1327 01:10:43,800 --> 01:10:47,559 Speaker 1: Delaney Walker gets a C grade. Cincinnatis allowed a forty 1328 01:10:47,720 --> 01:10:49,960 Speaker 1: nine yard game or better to tight ends in three 1329 01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:51,880 Speaker 1: straight games. I like that. Walker is still not close 1330 01:10:51,960 --> 01:10:55,360 Speaker 1: to healthy, though he has seen four or more targets 1331 01:10:55,400 --> 01:10:57,800 Speaker 1: every game, so volume alone might be okay here, but 1332 01:10:58,240 --> 01:11:01,040 Speaker 1: hasn't scored a touchdown this season. None for your guy, 1333 01:11:01,120 --> 01:11:04,320 Speaker 1: mat Delaney Walker. Last night, I dropped him in several leagues. 1334 01:11:04,479 --> 01:11:06,599 Speaker 1: I don't blame me. He's not my guy anymore. Murray 1335 01:11:06,680 --> 01:11:09,160 Speaker 1: and Henry the running backs for Tennessee are on the bench. 1336 01:11:09,600 --> 01:11:13,600 Speaker 1: Murray narrowly outtouched Henry last week, but Henry got the touchdowns. 1337 01:11:13,640 --> 01:11:16,280 Speaker 1: And every week we talked about this in five hot questions. 1338 01:11:16,360 --> 01:11:19,000 Speaker 1: It's it's always a nightmare to figure out who it's 1339 01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:21,400 Speaker 1: going to be. It's a it's a timeshare, and it's 1340 01:11:21,439 --> 01:11:24,840 Speaker 1: a Cincinnati defense that's only allowed d rusher and only 1341 01:11:24,920 --> 01:11:29,200 Speaker 1: two rushing scores all season. So I don't know how 1342 01:11:29,280 --> 01:11:31,559 Speaker 1: you find I don't know how you could guess which one, 1343 01:11:31,640 --> 01:11:33,599 Speaker 1: if either is going to get anything done this week. 1344 01:11:33,680 --> 01:11:39,840 Speaker 1: So let's avoid both. Next Patriots taking on the Broncos. Uh, 1345 01:11:40,040 --> 01:11:42,000 Speaker 1: normally we would just say start all your Patriots, but 1346 01:11:42,040 --> 01:11:43,840 Speaker 1: it's a tricky matchup. What do you think it's a 1347 01:11:43,840 --> 01:11:46,640 Speaker 1: little tricky. Start with Tom Brady, who gets to be uh, 1348 01:11:47,000 --> 01:11:49,800 Speaker 1: pretty pretty bad history against the Broncos, who last year 1349 01:11:49,800 --> 01:11:52,679 Speaker 1: allowed a mean or twelve passing touchdowns. This year, they've 1350 01:11:52,680 --> 01:11:55,679 Speaker 1: allowed sixteen passing touchdowns so far, though only two teams 1351 01:11:55,720 --> 01:11:58,599 Speaker 1: have allowed more than that. So Brady, you're gonna start him. Obviously, 1352 01:11:59,080 --> 01:12:01,519 Speaker 1: You're definitely starting Bob Gronkowski, though he gets an A. 1353 01:12:02,120 --> 01:12:04,160 Speaker 1: In his last four meetings with Denver, he has finished 1354 01:12:04,200 --> 01:12:06,639 Speaker 1: with no fewer than eighty eight yards and a touchdown. 1355 01:12:06,920 --> 01:12:09,280 Speaker 1: When that's your bad game, eight eight yards in a touchdown, 1356 01:12:09,360 --> 01:12:11,080 Speaker 1: you're you're in You're in a good spot. Denver is 1357 01:12:11,080 --> 01:12:13,400 Speaker 1: allowed the second most receiving yards and fourth most catches, 1358 01:12:13,439 --> 01:12:15,960 Speaker 1: So Gronk is an easy start. Brandon Cooks not not 1359 01:12:16,120 --> 01:12:18,519 Speaker 1: so easy. Even with Chris Hogan out, he has been 1360 01:12:18,600 --> 01:12:21,479 Speaker 1: ruled out. The Broncos have allowed the fewest receptions and 1361 01:12:21,600 --> 01:12:23,479 Speaker 1: yards to wide receivers this year. They have a lot 1362 01:12:23,520 --> 01:12:26,280 Speaker 1: of fair amount of touchdowns, but Cooks really hasn't made 1363 01:12:26,280 --> 01:12:28,040 Speaker 1: a factor in the realm and not at all, So 1364 01:12:28,160 --> 01:12:29,960 Speaker 1: I'm not liking this match up a whole lot for him. 1365 01:12:30,000 --> 01:12:32,720 Speaker 1: I'm really not liking it for Damni m Amndola. If 1366 01:12:32,760 --> 01:12:35,120 Speaker 1: he even plays with that shoulder injury, he'll see a 1367 01:12:35,160 --> 01:12:38,400 Speaker 1: lot of Chris Harris and the slot. So I got 1368 01:12:38,439 --> 01:12:40,479 Speaker 1: Amundola on the bench, and I'm not getting cute with 1369 01:12:40,479 --> 01:12:43,760 Speaker 1: Philip Dorset or anything like that. With Chris Hogan out, Uh, 1370 01:12:44,000 --> 01:12:45,920 Speaker 1: it doesn't get much better for the running backs. I 1371 01:12:45,920 --> 01:12:49,360 Speaker 1: didn't give Dion Lewis and James White both the sea. Uh. 1372 01:12:49,640 --> 01:12:52,040 Speaker 1: Speaking to Lewis, he led the team and carries for 1373 01:12:52,400 --> 01:12:54,559 Speaker 1: the third straight week last week. He's averaging four point 1374 01:12:54,600 --> 01:12:56,920 Speaker 1: seven yards per carry. But Denver is giving up the 1375 01:12:56,960 --> 01:12:58,720 Speaker 1: fourth the US yards per game to running backs and 1376 01:12:58,760 --> 01:13:00,599 Speaker 1: have only allowed three rushing touch downs on the years 1377 01:13:00,600 --> 01:13:02,599 Speaker 1: of Not a great matchup for lewis not a great 1378 01:13:02,640 --> 01:13:06,200 Speaker 1: matchup for James White either, but um Denver has surrendered 1379 01:13:06,240 --> 01:13:08,320 Speaker 1: three scores through the air to running backs, which is 1380 01:13:08,360 --> 01:13:10,080 Speaker 1: tied for the second most in the league. And James 1381 01:13:10,160 --> 01:13:12,639 Speaker 1: White has seen eight red zone targets, which is tied 1382 01:13:12,680 --> 01:13:15,519 Speaker 1: for second among running backs. And Mike Gilsli real quick 1383 01:13:15,720 --> 01:13:18,720 Speaker 1: on the bench obviously, hasn't scored since Week two and 1384 01:13:18,800 --> 01:13:21,200 Speaker 1: has just two carries from inside the five yard line 1385 01:13:21,240 --> 01:13:23,160 Speaker 1: in the six games since then. He is just I 1386 01:13:23,200 --> 01:13:26,240 Speaker 1: think he's been dropped in mostly and uh quickly to 1387 01:13:26,439 --> 01:13:28,800 Speaker 1: Denver's side to Mary's Thomas gets it be. New England 1388 01:13:28,840 --> 01:13:31,240 Speaker 1: has allowed these second most yards per game to wide receivers. 1389 01:13:31,280 --> 01:13:33,720 Speaker 1: They've also given up either one hundred yards or a 1390 01:13:33,840 --> 01:13:36,120 Speaker 1: touchdown to a wide receiver in every game this season. 1391 01:13:36,600 --> 01:13:39,080 Speaker 1: Uh Manuel Sander is gonna give him a c despite 1392 01:13:39,120 --> 01:13:41,800 Speaker 1: only catching one ball from Brock Oswiler last week. New 1393 01:13:41,840 --> 01:13:44,120 Speaker 1: England allows these second most yards per game two receivers 1394 01:13:44,160 --> 01:13:46,360 Speaker 1: as I just said, and the fourth most plays of 1395 01:13:46,439 --> 01:13:48,720 Speaker 1: twenty plus yards, so Sanders should be more of a 1396 01:13:48,760 --> 01:13:51,960 Speaker 1: factor here. I'm benching brock Oswiler despite the fact New 1397 01:13:52,000 --> 01:13:54,519 Speaker 1: England has allowed three nine yards and two touchdowns per 1398 01:13:54,640 --> 01:13:57,800 Speaker 1: game to opposing quarterbacks. He's brock Oswiler. He's on the bench. 1399 01:13:58,320 --> 01:14:01,200 Speaker 1: So c J. Anderson Patriots of bottom ten against running 1400 01:14:01,200 --> 01:14:03,439 Speaker 1: backs in and have allowed at least eighty total yards 1401 01:14:03,680 --> 01:14:05,599 Speaker 1: to each of the last four backs that they faced. 1402 01:14:05,680 --> 01:14:08,719 Speaker 1: But CJ's is loo bad. He's average a meter thirty 1403 01:14:08,720 --> 01:14:11,320 Speaker 1: eight rushing yards per game over his last four. His 1404 01:14:11,439 --> 01:14:14,560 Speaker 1: snap count has dropped for seven straight weeks, and I 1405 01:14:14,680 --> 01:14:16,840 Speaker 1: like DeVante Booker more. Now he gets the sea, He's 1406 01:14:16,840 --> 01:14:19,160 Speaker 1: gonna leap frogs TJ on the depth chart. In this game. 1407 01:14:19,560 --> 01:14:22,240 Speaker 1: He's averaging four targets per game over his last four, 1408 01:14:22,479 --> 01:14:25,320 Speaker 1: He's averaging five yards per carry. New England is allowing 1409 01:14:25,360 --> 01:14:27,560 Speaker 1: nearly six catches per game, so Booker can be a 1410 01:14:27,640 --> 01:14:30,320 Speaker 1: PPR helper here. Alright, Let's go to our final matchup, 1411 01:14:30,360 --> 01:14:32,800 Speaker 1: and that's the Dolphins at the Panthers. Matt, you already 1412 01:14:32,840 --> 01:14:35,880 Speaker 1: told us you like quarterback Jay Cutler, and this one, yeah, 1413 01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:39,080 Speaker 1: I do like to quarterback Jay Cutler. He he got 1414 01:14:39,160 --> 01:14:41,200 Speaker 1: a b out of me. I got bees on DeVante 1415 01:14:41,280 --> 01:14:43,800 Speaker 1: Parker and Jarvis Landry as well. Parker is finally healthy 1416 01:14:43,840 --> 01:14:47,040 Speaker 1: and we have a kindler gentler Cutler chucking him the 1417 01:14:47,080 --> 01:14:50,000 Speaker 1: ball everywhere. They might be a spread offense soon. Parker 1418 01:14:50,080 --> 01:14:53,320 Speaker 1: has eight or more targets in every game that he's 1419 01:14:53,360 --> 01:14:56,000 Speaker 1: finished this season, and he's hit the sixty nine yard 1420 01:14:56,120 --> 01:14:59,080 Speaker 1: mark in each of his four complete games. Landry's at 1421 01:14:59,120 --> 01:15:01,639 Speaker 1: double digit target in every game but to the season 1422 01:15:01,880 --> 01:15:04,240 Speaker 1: and at least five receptions in every game this year 1423 01:15:04,280 --> 01:15:06,559 Speaker 1: and scored in four of his last five. They're both 1424 01:15:06,640 --> 01:15:08,760 Speaker 1: volume plays, and I think Cutler is going to throw 1425 01:15:08,840 --> 01:15:12,160 Speaker 1: in this one. The running game Kenyan Drake and Damien Williams. 1426 01:15:12,200 --> 01:15:15,000 Speaker 1: I got him on the bench. They're splitting touches almost evenly, 1427 01:15:15,439 --> 01:15:17,920 Speaker 1: fifteen to thirteen in favor of Drake last week. And 1428 01:15:17,960 --> 01:15:19,600 Speaker 1: as much as I like both of these guys in 1429 01:15:19,640 --> 01:15:23,040 Speaker 1: a PPR format, this isn't the matchup. Tarik Cohen had 1430 01:15:23,080 --> 01:15:25,880 Speaker 1: one seventy yard reception against the Panthers earlier this season. 1431 01:15:26,080 --> 01:15:28,759 Speaker 1: If you take that away, the Panthers are only allowing 1432 01:15:28,840 --> 01:15:31,320 Speaker 1: thirty three receiving yards per game to running back, so 1433 01:15:31,360 --> 01:15:33,800 Speaker 1: they're both on the bench. Over on the other side, 1434 01:15:33,880 --> 01:15:38,479 Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey is the fantasy unicorn because he's strange, mystical. 1435 01:15:38,960 --> 01:15:40,640 Speaker 1: I don't know how to feel about him, but he 1436 01:15:40,720 --> 01:15:43,840 Speaker 1: makes magic happen. He's got at least five catches in 1437 01:15:43,960 --> 01:15:47,679 Speaker 1: five straight games, but only sixty five total yards per game. 1438 01:15:47,800 --> 01:15:50,439 Speaker 1: But he scored in three of his last five. And 1439 01:15:50,520 --> 01:15:53,960 Speaker 1: the Panthers are trying to distribute the vacated Calvin Benjamin targets, 1440 01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:56,200 Speaker 1: and a lot of them are going mccatholicks. They're also 1441 01:15:56,320 --> 01:16:00,840 Speaker 1: vacating James Jonathan Stewart carries after the two fumbles, and 1442 01:16:00,880 --> 01:16:03,000 Speaker 1: he's averaging like two yards a carry. I think they 1443 01:16:03,040 --> 01:16:06,880 Speaker 1: should send Jonathan Stewart on a vacucit and and because 1444 01:16:07,040 --> 01:16:09,000 Speaker 1: his age seems to have caught him caught up with him. 1445 01:16:09,040 --> 01:16:11,639 Speaker 1: He's averaging under two yards per carry in his last 1446 01:16:11,720 --> 01:16:14,679 Speaker 1: five games. Cam Newton, I'm giving him a B grade. 1447 01:16:14,720 --> 01:16:17,280 Speaker 1: Over his last six games, he's averaging nine carries and 1448 01:16:17,360 --> 01:16:20,120 Speaker 1: fifty rushing yards per game. He's actually their best running back. 1449 01:16:20,800 --> 01:16:23,200 Speaker 1: He has twice as many rushing touchdowns as the rest 1450 01:16:23,240 --> 01:16:26,360 Speaker 1: of the team. Combined. Granted it's only four to two, 1451 01:16:26,520 --> 01:16:30,360 Speaker 1: but that's still something. He's only averaging five passing yards 1452 01:16:30,400 --> 01:16:32,439 Speaker 1: per game, but it's the rushing that's making you money here, 1453 01:16:32,479 --> 01:16:35,000 Speaker 1: and so Newton's will be And Devin Funcious is the 1454 01:16:35,080 --> 01:16:37,040 Speaker 1: last guy I'll mention. I give him a B grade. 1455 01:16:37,240 --> 01:16:40,439 Speaker 1: All three of Funcioses touchdowns came in two games in 1456 01:16:40,520 --> 01:16:44,040 Speaker 1: which Carolina scored twenty seven or more points. So when 1457 01:16:44,080 --> 01:16:47,479 Speaker 1: they're scoring in bunches, you start funches. And the Dolphins 1458 01:16:47,520 --> 01:16:50,479 Speaker 1: have allowed twenty seven or more points in three straight games, 1459 01:16:51,000 --> 01:16:53,080 Speaker 1: So this is going to be another one of those games. 1460 01:16:53,320 --> 01:16:55,200 Speaker 1: Funcius is going to score this week. Now. We talked 1461 01:16:55,200 --> 01:16:56,920 Speaker 1: about it last week, and you gotta pick your spots 1462 01:16:56,960 --> 01:17:00,400 Speaker 1: with Funchius, and this might be a good one. Premature 1463 01:17:00,439 --> 01:17:02,760 Speaker 1: speculation is the only thing between now and lightning round. 1464 01:17:03,040 --> 01:17:04,320 Speaker 1: This is the bit where we tell you a guy 1465 01:17:04,360 --> 01:17:05,680 Speaker 1: to pick up now that we think he's gonna be 1466 01:17:05,680 --> 01:17:07,920 Speaker 1: a hot waiver wired next week. Brian, who you got 1467 01:17:08,800 --> 01:17:10,719 Speaker 1: kind of a hail Mary, But let's go with Dante 1468 01:17:11,000 --> 01:17:15,479 Speaker 1: Dante Foreman Anta the Anta foreman who is the backup 1469 01:17:15,640 --> 01:17:19,280 Speaker 1: currently for Lamar Miller is still in Houston. Basically, if 1470 01:17:19,320 --> 01:17:22,920 Speaker 1: a Lamar Miller injury happens, Foreman is gonna be a 1471 01:17:22,960 --> 01:17:26,280 Speaker 1: factor starting Week fourteen. He has San Francisco, Jacksonville, and 1472 01:17:26,320 --> 01:17:29,320 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh goes with three plus matchups. Foreman did have double 1473 01:17:29,360 --> 01:17:31,479 Speaker 1: digit carries in his last two full games, and Miller 1474 01:17:31,560 --> 01:17:35,040 Speaker 1: faded last year, so why not? All right, I got 1475 01:17:35,120 --> 01:17:37,559 Speaker 1: this guy that you may have drafted first overall named 1476 01:17:37,640 --> 01:17:40,439 Speaker 1: David Johnson. The cast came off his wrist on Monday. 1477 01:17:40,840 --> 01:17:43,880 Speaker 1: Online doctors are saying recovery from this injury is tricky 1478 01:17:44,000 --> 01:17:46,360 Speaker 1: due to all the small bones and ligaments in the wrist, 1479 01:17:46,520 --> 01:17:50,120 Speaker 1: but Johnson said he wants to play, even if they're 1480 01:17:50,160 --> 01:17:52,640 Speaker 1: out of playoff contention. He wants to get in and 1481 01:17:52,720 --> 01:17:55,720 Speaker 1: get reps. And it was a hand injury, not a 1482 01:17:55,920 --> 01:17:58,400 Speaker 1: leg injury, so he should be fresh when he comes back. 1483 01:17:58,439 --> 01:18:00,200 Speaker 1: He should be able to hit the ground running. I'm 1484 01:18:00,240 --> 01:18:02,880 Speaker 1: giving you two guys that came that got injured and 1485 01:18:02,920 --> 01:18:04,920 Speaker 1: placed and I are early in the season, are now 1486 01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:08,880 Speaker 1: coming off, Greg Olsen Danny Woodhead, both guys that will 1487 01:18:08,960 --> 01:18:14,120 Speaker 1: immediately go into starting roster spots and both of them available. 1488 01:18:14,160 --> 01:18:18,320 Speaker 1: Woodhead comes back next week, Olsen comes back the week after. 1489 01:18:18,960 --> 01:18:20,880 Speaker 1: All right, let's go to Lightning Round. You know the 1490 01:18:20,920 --> 01:18:24,840 Speaker 1: bit one question between two players and that is it. 1491 01:18:25,840 --> 01:18:29,479 Speaker 1: We're very strict about that around here, Steve. Welcome to 1492 01:18:29,520 --> 01:18:35,160 Speaker 1: the show. Thank you for your patience. Steve. Hello, Hi, 1493 01:18:35,360 --> 01:18:41,719 Speaker 1: what have you got? Hello?

Um, my friend offered Kareem 1495 01:18:46,080 --> 01:18:51,519 Speaker 1: hunt for Hunt for Hide. Hunt is not scored in 1496 01:18:52,160 --> 01:18:56,120 Speaker 1: six weeks now. Hi, Hide's kind of a sneaky play. 1497 01:18:56,200 --> 01:18:58,519 Speaker 1: He's been doing really well at as of the last 1498 01:18:58,560 --> 01:19:02,680 Speaker 1: three weeks and it pains me to do it, but 1499 01:19:02,760 --> 01:19:05,519 Speaker 1: I think I like Hide better. All right, thank you, 1500 01:19:05,600 --> 01:19:14,880 Speaker 1: Steve e. Hello, Hey, alright, Schuster. Oh, let's go with 1501 01:19:15,080 --> 01:19:17,080 Speaker 1: Juju in this one.

I'm not as high on Woodhead as 1512 01:19:57,920 --> 01:20:02,000 Speaker 1: as Churches, so I think I'd drop Woodhead and go 1513 01:20:02,200 --> 01:20:05,200 Speaker 1: Rod Smith, who's going to be playing the Woodhead role 1514 01:20:05,920 --> 01:20:09,760 Speaker 1: on a better offense.

I agree, and yeah 1534 01:21:34,720 --> 01:21:37,160 Speaker 1: it has It's come to this for Jordy, who has 1535 01:21:37,200 --> 01:21:40,200 Speaker 1: been virtually phased out of the Brett Hundley is a 1536 01:21:40,280 --> 01:21:43,680 Speaker 1: sabotage drop that maybe maybe that'll be a preview of 1537 01:21:43,760 --> 01:21:47,240 Speaker 1: next week's show. We'll find out John your next ppr 1538 01:21:47,760 --> 01:21:52,080 Speaker 1: Juju or Robbie Anderson. Oh, I gotta go to chart 1539 01:21:52,160 --> 01:21:54,160 Speaker 1: on this one. Do you do you like Rabbi Anderson 1540 01:21:54,200 --> 01:21:56,760 Speaker 1: that much more? I love Robbie. I like Juju quite 1541 01:21:56,760 --> 01:21:59,680 Speaker 1: a bit, but I'll defer I think he said it 1542 01:21:59,720 --> 01:22:03,160 Speaker 1: was a pr ly too and Anderson. Juju Smith is 1543 01:22:03,640 --> 01:22:05,960 Speaker 1: not a high volume guy. He's a low volume. He's 1544 01:22:05,960 --> 01:22:08,920 Speaker 1: a higher upside guy that I think that I don't 1545 01:22:08,920 --> 01:22:12,000 Speaker 1: even know about that. So all the advantages are to 1546 01:22:12,120 --> 01:22:16,840 Speaker 1: Robby Anderson. I think so, Mikey, you're next, Marlene dark One. 1547 01:22:19,240 --> 01:22:22,000 Speaker 1: You gotta go dark one against the Niners. We talked 1548 01:22:22,040 --> 01:22:25,320 Speaker 1: about all the Vikings just shutting down running backs through 1549 01:22:25,360 --> 01:22:33,240 Speaker 1: the air this year. David your next, David? I hello, Yes, 1550 01:22:33,400 --> 01:22:40,840 Speaker 1: Alfred Morris or Doug Martin. I'm gonna take Doug more. 1551 01:22:40,920 --> 01:22:42,880 Speaker 1: I think they both got B grades from US. I'm 1552 01:22:42,880 --> 01:22:44,880 Speaker 1: gonna take Doug Martin because it'll get all the work. 1553 01:22:44,920 --> 01:22:47,000 Speaker 1: I don't have to sweat a much of a time 1554 01:22:47,040 --> 01:22:49,200 Speaker 1: share there. I know Peyton Barber got a bunch of 1555 01:22:49,240 --> 01:22:51,320 Speaker 1: work last week, but that was in a blowout loss, 1556 01:22:51,439 --> 01:22:53,640 Speaker 1: and I don't think that's indicative. Ron Smith's gonna have 1557 01:22:53,680 --> 01:22:55,920 Speaker 1: a better game than Alfred Morris. Yeah, I'm put I 1558 01:22:55,960 --> 01:22:59,320 Speaker 1: put Alfred Morris on the bench. Okay, I like Morris 1559 01:22:59,360 --> 01:23:02,120 Speaker 1: more than two has done it. Dave, you're a final 1560 01:23:02,160 --> 01:23:07,519 Speaker 1: caller today. Hey, I love the show.
