1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:14,400
Speaker 1: Wow, Hey everybody, It's Monday, September twenty third, twenty twenty four.

2
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:16,959
Speaker 1: Welcome to the NFL Fantasy Football Show. We want to

3
00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:19,160
Speaker 1: just unplug the season and plug it back in again.

4
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:20,880
Speaker 1: It's me your man, nam G Marcus Grant, joined by

5
00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 1: Michael Florida and Lakwan Jones.

6
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:24,560
Speaker 2: All right, man, I'm gonna give you the space.

7
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 1: You're rocking the Colors today. Your team came from behind

8
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:32,479
Speaker 1: and beat my team. They absolutely earned the win. My

9
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:34,880
Speaker 1: team deserved every little bit of that loss. The forty

10
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 1: nine ers gagging one up. So yeah, talk to your

11
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 1: talk man, because you know the Rams earned it yesterday.

12
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 3: I know I said we did a truce, but in

13
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 3: my best Dave Chappelle voice, psych no way Ram for

14
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 3: the w baby at the crib and I'm so mad

15
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:53,560
Speaker 3: I didn't go to that game to see those moments.

16
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 4: Man, But I'm gonna let you live.

17
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 5: MG.

18
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 4: I'm gonna let you live.

19
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:58,639
Speaker 1: Well, based on the videos, you'd have been the only

20
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 1: one wearing blue and yellow there.

21
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:06,520
Speaker 4: Forty nine jerseys are just cheaper, that's sure.

22
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 2: Sure it was truly Levi's out there.

23
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:14,839
Speaker 6: Yeah, the rams last fourteen point win, comes from behind

24
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 6: win was against Washington when Shanahan and McVeigh were both

25
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:19,679
Speaker 6: on that staff.

26
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 1: Logan look at that time is a flat circle the

27
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:26,759
Speaker 1: whole deal. All Right, we gotta let to get into

28
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:29,399
Speaker 1: on the show, we'll have our biggest takeaways from week three,

29
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 1: plus some guys that we're breaking up with. It's been

30
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,320
Speaker 1: three weeks, uh, and you know the trends are trending.

31
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:36,960
Speaker 1: We'll figure out guys that we might have to say

32
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 1: goodbye to. Plus we'll give you some Waiver Wire love

33
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 1: as well. But as we always do about this time,

34
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 1: let's start with some fantasy headlines and a couple of

35
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 1: big ones. I mean, there have been injuries all throughout

36
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 1: uh the NFL, But on Sunday we saw DeVante Smith

37
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 1: leave the Eagles win over New Orleans with a concussion.

38
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 1: Took a really big hit in that game. Dallas Goddard

39
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 1: had a huge day. But yeah, we'll see what the

40
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 1: status is going to be for Smith going into this week.

41
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 1: You know, AJ Brown still dealing with an issue like

42
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:09,200
Speaker 1: he may not play next week.

43
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 2: We will see about that as well.

44
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:12,959
Speaker 1: So, I mean, Florida, if we go into this and

45
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 1: there's no Aj Brown and there's no DeVonta Smith, what

46
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,680
Speaker 1: are we doing with Jalen Hurts, Because even with those guys,

47
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 1: it hasn't looked great for Hurts this season.

48
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 6: No, well, the first two games haven't looked great, but

49
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 6: at least we got like solid fantasy production out of him.

50
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:32,679
Speaker 6: My hope is that maybe aj Brown could come back

51
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 6: for this but even if he doesn't, you'd have to

52
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 6: have another really good option I think to get away

53
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 6: from Jalen Hurts. Quarterback is a little bit thinner than

54
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,240
Speaker 6: we had maybe hoped it would be coming into the season.

55
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,080
Speaker 6: Guys like Justin Herbert Kirk Cousins just aren't really usable

56
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 6: right now in fantasy. So it would depend on your

57
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 6: other option. But because of what he can give with

58
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 6: his legs still, because he stills like Dallas Goddard Saquon

59
00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,519
Speaker 6: there and I still think he would probably be a

60
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 6: QB one and start like I have him the league,

61
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:02,959
Speaker 6: I would be starting him. My bench quarterbacks aren't anything

62
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 6: to write home about, but it very much sow as

63
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 6: it depends on your options type of scenario.

64
00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 2: I mean, right now, he is the QB six.

65
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 1: We still have a two Monday night games left to

66
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: be played, and two of the three Lakwan have just

67
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 1: been kind of He hit sixteen but just under sixteen

68
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 1: and a half in Week one, under eleven points in

69
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,520
Speaker 1: Week two he had or and we three I should say,

70
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: had the good Week two game with twenty four Fantasy points,

71
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 1: but lak.

72
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:30,359
Speaker 2: When we go back to late.

73
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:34,359
Speaker 1: Last year where the Eagles often sort of struggled, well,

74
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 1: what do we make of Jalen Hurts?

75
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 2: I mean, is this who he is?

76
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 1: Is it going to be kind of rocky from week

77
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 1: to week or can we expect better?

78
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 3: It's gonna be rocky as long as this Eagles offense

79
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 3: has injuries. You know, aj Brown is a huge piece

80
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 3: to that offense, So not having him and then possibly

81
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 3: having concussed Devonte Smith possibly missing a game next week

82
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 3: against the Bucks, it's it's gonna.

83
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 4: Be hard for Jalen Hurst to be the Jailer Hurts.

84
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 3: That we known and love, you know, be able to

85
00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 3: get out of that pocket, roll out and extend to

86
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 3: play with his legs, of course, but it's more so

87
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 3: we're seeing Jalen Hurts struggle going out of the pocket,

88
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 3: extending the plays and a lot of these interceptions are

89
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 3: just unacceptable. So when you're taking away pieces, core pieces

90
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 3: from this Philadelphia Eagles offense. I start to look at

91
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 3: Jalen Hurts as a fantasy asset to where it's like

92
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,280
Speaker 3: I might have to bench you, dude, I might have

93
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 3: to bench you when your team is fully healthy. Just

94
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:25,480
Speaker 3: having Saquon Barkley, unless he's catching twenty balls, doesn't really

95
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,040
Speaker 3: help Jalen Hurts well.

96
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:28,760
Speaker 1: And I think Floria you tweeted earlier in this season

97
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 1: that Jalen Hurts looks slower than we have seen in

98
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:32,839
Speaker 1: the past.

99
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 6: He then ran forty yards after shortly after.

100
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,360
Speaker 2: So congratulations on being a motivator. That's what you did.

101
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:40,600
Speaker 2: Just motivated it right there.

102
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 1: Speaking of quarterbacks and their feet, Justin Herbert started the

103
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 1: game for the Chargers against Pittsburgh on Sunday, did not

104
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 1: finish the game.

105
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 2: He left the.

106
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 1: Stadium in a walking boot. I mean, lakwan, look, the

107
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 1: passing game in Los Angeles, almost at San Diego, the

108
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 1: passing game for the Chargers is not been great. We

109
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 1: sort of expected that, I guess, with Greg Roman and

110
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh at the controls. But now if there's no

111
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,719
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert, can we start any Chargers? And I include JK.

112
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 1: Dobbins in that, because if there's no Justin Herbert. If

113
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,720
Speaker 1: I'm a defense, I just scheme to take away the

114
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:19,840
Speaker 1: run game and force the Chargers to beat me through

115
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:20,200
Speaker 1: the air.

116
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:23,359
Speaker 4: I think you still start JK. Dobbins.

117
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,560
Speaker 3: This research is in by accident, the news ball, and

118
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 3: he's efficient. You could stack the box all you want.

119
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 3: He's one of those guys that can get through those tackles.

120
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 3: So I'm definitely thinking about the other options the pass catchers,

121
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 3: and I'm not quite sure like Quentin Johnson QJ. He's

122
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 3: going out there bawling out right now, but two of

123
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 3: his touchdowns are on blown coverages. So I'm not really

124
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,839
Speaker 3: sold one hundred percent. And if you take Justin Herbert

125
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 3: out of that equation, I'm not too sure what this

126
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 3: passing game is going to look like. It's already low volume,

127
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 3: it's already a little bit boring through the air, but

128
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 3: you're taking out the captain of this offense and Justin Herbert,

129
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 3: So I'm not quite sure if I can depend on

130
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 3: aladd mcconfey. I'm not quite sure if I could depend

131
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 3: on the Josh bom or where he's at. And you

132
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:03,599
Speaker 3: know in QJ, so it's looking at you know, the

133
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:05,720
Speaker 3: rest of the pass catchers that I'll probably sit and

134
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 3: look for other options and pivot to other positions at

135
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 3: the flex position because none of these guys are your

136
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 3: wide receiver one or two. So JK Domins seems like

137
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 3: the safest bet if you're gonna be looking at these

138
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 3: Chargers players in your starting lineups.

139
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 2: I mean real quick Florida, Quentin Johnston, Real, and Mirage.

140
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 6: I think he's real. I was saying he was real

141
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 6: last week. I was a believer of his both coming

142
00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:30,359
Speaker 6: into the NFL draft, and I kept saying all summer

143
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 6: not to write him off. But what I think he's

144
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 6: real is one, he is massive, so he's a good

145
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,159
Speaker 6: run blocker, so that keeps him on the field a

146
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 6: whole bunch. Plus he is their go to guy in

147
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:44,159
Speaker 6: the red zone, like so that alone. Also, like if

148
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,160
Speaker 6: Justin Herbert sits next week, yeah, I think you get

149
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 6: away from QJ. Even if he plays, you might want

150
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 6: to get away from him because the chief secondary is

151
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:54,600
Speaker 6: still really tough and who knows how Herbert will look.

152
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 6: But yeah, if I picked up Quentin Johnson in a

153
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 6: number of leagues last week, and I'm feeling good about it,

154
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,159
Speaker 6: there's not many players that will hate off the waiver

155
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 6: wire with they chance to be their team's wide receiver

156
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,479
Speaker 6: one and top target, and he clearly has that opportunity

157
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 6: so far.

158
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,480
Speaker 1: The passing game is Quinton Johnston Lad McConkey. They both

159
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 1: have ten catches, Johnston a few extra yards and a

160
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: couple more touchdowns. But it's gonna be low volume pretty

161
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 1: much all year long. All right, Let's take a look

162
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 1: at some of the week's top scorers heading into Monday night.

163
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 1: Dak Prescott three hundred and seventy nine passing yards, a

164
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,600
Speaker 1: couple of passing touchdowns, also ran for a score nearly

165
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 1: thirty points for him. Sakuon Barkley continuing to give John

166
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 1: Merra insomnia one hundred and forty seven rushing yards, a

167
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,320
Speaker 1: pair of rushing touchdowns, also four catches for nine yards

168
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 1: thirty three point six points in there.

169
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 2: Juwan Jennings, I say he's gonna be a sleeper.

170
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 1: I didn't think he's gonna give you forty six and

171
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 1: a half points though he looked like. Jerry Rice and

172
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: Randy Moss all rolled into one eleven for a bucks

173
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 1: seventy five and three touchdowns. Dallas Goddard had a day

174
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 1: ten for a Bucks seventy that was twenty seven points.

175
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: Will Lutts four field goals, a couple of pats that

176
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 1: was good for fourteen. And the Packers defense. I liked

177
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,520
Speaker 1: them as a sleeper this week. Eight sacks, three takeaways,

178
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 1: a touchdown. Will Levis keeping fantasy defenses in business. But

179
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 1: let's look at some of our other fantasy heroes, guys

180
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 1: who may not have made this list this week.

181
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 2: And for you, lakwanra sip a little Charbonna huh.

182
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, a little Sharbonne.

183
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 3: Zach Charbonne Man is definitely a fantasy hero for me

184
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,560
Speaker 3: man because he is one of the two handcuffs that

185
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 3: all summer we were saying to go grab and they're

186
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 3: actually performing at a high level. Jordan Mason being the

187
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 3: other guy, look at me giving love to the NFC

188
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:36,680
Speaker 3: West way, you know it happens sometimes. But Zach Sharbonnay

189
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 3: is running like this should be his backfield. You know,

190
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,840
Speaker 3: ken Walker, I think there is no rush for them

191
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 3: to get him back because these bye weeks are going

192
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 3: to start coming early, and you want to take players

193
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 3: like ken Walker and kind of let him rehab to

194
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 3: fully come back. But Zach Sharbonnay, he's got the keys man.

195
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 3: He is running hard, he's running great, and a lot

196
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,080
Speaker 3: of fantasy managers are happy that they were able to

197
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 3: get him in those later rounds basically for free.

198
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 1: No one of my fantas lineup says you should rush

199
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 1: Kin Walker back like please yea healthy road to.

200
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 2: Go, Florio, your hero is a guy that you have

201
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 2: been looking.

202
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:10,360
Speaker 1: You're not the only one, but you have been very

203
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:12,320
Speaker 1: big on this guy pretty much from the beginning.

204
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,440
Speaker 6: Yeah, Melik Neighbors continues to be my guy. And look,

205
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 6: there was so many big names that were playing after

206
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 6: the early slate of games yesterday, it was so nice

207
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 6: in a couple of spots to be able to just

208
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:26,240
Speaker 6: sit back and be like, I don't even got a sweat.

209
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 6: Melik Neighbors has me covered. And two weeks ago or

210
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 6: last week, I should say, it was like, okay, yeah,

211
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:34,319
Speaker 6: he had this monster game, but it came in the

212
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,439
Speaker 6: best possible matchup a wide receiver could have. This was

213
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 6: a big test now going up against the Cleveland Browns,

214
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 6: and he came through once again. You see there over

215
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:46,559
Speaker 6: twenty eight fantasy points, youngest wide receiver in NFL history

216
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,680
Speaker 6: with a two touchdown game. First player in NFL history

217
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 6: with over twenty catches and three touchdowns in his first

218
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 6: three career games. I know people coming into the year

219
00:09:56,320 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 6: were like, quarterback play might hurt quarterback proof matchups. I

220
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,200
Speaker 6: hurt matchup proof. He is one of the elite wide

221
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 6: receivers in the league. I am already willing to say

222
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,559
Speaker 6: he is the best wide receiver that plays in New

223
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 6: York right now. There's not a whole lot of wide receivers.

224
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,119
Speaker 6: I'd rather have the rest of the way than Malik Namors.

225
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,719
Speaker 1: Wow, all respect, I'm not Garrett Wilson. He's pulling the

226
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson.

227
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:21,439
Speaker 2: What is it about.

228
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 1: LSU guys trying to upstage Garrett Wilson have no idea?

229
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:24,959
Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson.

230
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 2: It's the beef? What is the beef? Indeed, Sam Donald?

231
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,560
Speaker 1: Because we all would have predicted that, you know, through

232
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 1: nearly the end of week three that Sam Donald was

233
00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 1: going to be the QB two overall, just slightly behind

234
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. But that is where we are. And Kevin

235
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:46,640
Speaker 1: O'Connell has this offense humming. This Vikings team looks like

236
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,400
Speaker 1: they are going to be a problem all year long.

237
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:52,319
Speaker 1: Donald the four passing touchdown to see that the twenty

238
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,360
Speaker 1: three zero point twenty four fantasy points. And look, he's

239
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 1: doing it pretty much with just Justin Jefferson. I mean,

240
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:02,560
Speaker 1: he's getting Jalen Naylor, but they didn't have Jordan Addison

241
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,959
Speaker 1: in week three. They still aren't gonna have TJ. Howkinson

242
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 1: for a while. But he's making things happen. He's getting

243
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones involved in the passing game, which you'll love

244
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:12,080
Speaker 1: to see.

245
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:13,599
Speaker 2: So right now.

246
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 1: Donald has become one of those guys that has gone

247
00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:17,320
Speaker 1: from kind of a punchline to a guy like, hey,

248
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 1: maybe we should maybe we should check him out. Next

249
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,480
Speaker 1: week they're on the road at Green Bay. I still

250
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,920
Speaker 1: think he can be successful there. Now, we'll see because

251
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,560
Speaker 1: they got the Jets coming up in week five. But

252
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,840
Speaker 1: right now, there's no reason that Sam Donald shouldn't be

253
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 1: rostered everywhere. Right now at NFL dot Com, res rostered

254
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,720
Speaker 1: in just fifteen percent of leagues. I suspect that is

255
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 1: going to change dramatically by the time we get to

256
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,920
Speaker 1: Wednesday morning, because Sam Donald needs to be in lineups

257
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 1: as long as the Vikings offense is going this hot,

258
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 1: So we should.

259
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,000
Speaker 6: Put those c in the same convos with like McVay

260
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 6: and Shanahan.

261
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 1: I think that's we might have to I mean, it

262
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 1: might start happening as long as they keep winning and

263
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 1: keep being successful offensively.

264
00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 2: Let's get to some of our other.

265
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,959
Speaker 1: Big takeaways though from week three three and uh Lakwan,

266
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 1: I don't know Raider fans ear muffs man, because it

267
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,440
Speaker 1: was not a good day for you, But for the

268
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 1: folks who decided to keep pounding down there, Charlotte, it

269
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:11,199
Speaker 1: seemed pretty good.

270
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,440
Speaker 3: I am back in on the Panthers offense, Ladies and

271
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:15,840
Speaker 3: gentlemen like I can't believe I'm going to be spinning

272
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 3: the block to go get a Chewba Hubber.

273
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 4: I can't believe that right now.

274
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 3: Deontay Johnson's rossed in less than seventy percent of leaks,

275
00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:25,600
Speaker 3: like Andy Dalton came in, showed up, showed out, and

276
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:28,440
Speaker 3: put up three hundred yards in three touchdowns. The red

277
00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:32,680
Speaker 3: rifle went in on the Raiders defense, and listen, I'm

278
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 3: honestly super excited for Jonathan Brooks to be coming back

279
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 3: to a structured, well productive offense where we can see

280
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 3: some type of light out of this run game. I

281
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,640
Speaker 3: really feels though, Chuba Hubert Man. He showed up and

282
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 3: showed out with his opportunities as well, putting over one

283
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 3: hundred yards.

284
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 6: Man.

285
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:50,320
Speaker 3: He looked really good this week, and I think, you know,

286
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 3: we need to be running to the waiver wire Man

287
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:54,199
Speaker 3: to go get a Chuba Hubber if our running backs

288
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 3: are going to keep getting banged up, because I want

289
00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 3: a guy that's going to be able to take the opportunity,

290
00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 3: because this isn't something for from Cuba.

291
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:00,880
Speaker 5: Man.

292
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 3: He's been able to have one hundred yard games. He

293
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 3: has four of them in the last three seasons. So

294
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 3: it's looking like Tuba Harbert has the keys right now

295
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 3: to Jonathan Brooks comes back. But this is a healthy

296
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:12,440
Speaker 3: Panthers offense that I think has a lot more in

297
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,439
Speaker 3: store for us coming next week.

298
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm very curious to see how much of this was,

299
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:18,960
Speaker 1: you know, Andy Dalton taking over and making that offense

300
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,200
Speaker 1: look functional. How much of it was the Raiders sort

301
00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 1: of raidering a little bit. We'll find out. They got

302
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 1: the Bengals, the Bears, the Falcons coming up in the

303
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,840
Speaker 1: next three weeks. But it's worth taking a shot on

304
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:33,040
Speaker 1: those guys just because of what we saw yesterday Florida.

305
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 2: What was a thing that you learned from Week three.

306
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, as a Deontay Johnson huge supporter, I loved what

307
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:42,199
Speaker 6: I saw yesterday there. I also was a huge supporter

308
00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:46,000
Speaker 6: of Anthony Richardson coming into this year. I'm starting to

309
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:49,640
Speaker 6: worry about him a little bit. In his first three

310
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 6: full NFL games he was averaging twenty six Fantasy points

311
00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:56,520
Speaker 6: per game, and his last two full NFL games combined

312
00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,880
Speaker 6: he does not have fifteen Fantasy points. And the thing

313
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 6: turnovers six interceptions on the year, five in his last

314
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:07,080
Speaker 6: two games. And if you watched the game yesterday and

315
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:09,840
Speaker 6: I was locked in very closely on this game, there

316
00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 6: could have been a one. It's the way the turnovers

317
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,680
Speaker 6: are coming. They are like Will Levis s some of them.

318
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:18,480
Speaker 6: But two, there was a couple of near interceptions that

319
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 6: he got away with that could have made this day

320
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 6: look even worse. So that has me concerned. They get

321
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:27,200
Speaker 6: the Steelers this week. I look, I'm not telling you

322
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,240
Speaker 6: to drop him or anything like that. In fact, I

323
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,200
Speaker 6: think you should try to buy low right now. But

324
00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 6: a little peak behind the curtain for Week four, I

325
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 6: have him as a sit against the Steelers.

326
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 1: It's not a good situation and part of it is

327
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 1: that he's not scrambling like when he's getting yards, there's

328
00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 1: a lot of undesigned runs. He's not doing it as

329
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 1: much as a scrambler. We talked about Sam Darnold and

330
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,720
Speaker 1: the Vikings offense. I'm gonna tell you about the Vikings

331
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:53,080
Speaker 1: defense and maybe don't start guys against.

332
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 2: Them right now.

333
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 1: It has not looked good for anybody going up against

334
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:57,320
Speaker 1: Brian Flores's defense.

335
00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 2: They shut down the Houston Texans yesterday. They had CJ.

336
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 1: Stroud just kind of locked up. It was not a

337
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 1: great day for a lot of the Texans receivers. The

338
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 1: week before that it was the forty nine ers. Brock

339
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 1: Perty going over afterwards is just like telling Brian floor

340
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,640
Speaker 1: Is your scheme is a nightmare. I just you know,

341
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:17,440
Speaker 1: in the highest compliment possible, it has been just a

342
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,760
Speaker 1: disaster for any offense going against the Minnesota Vikings. So look,

343
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 1: you may have some studs that you're just not going

344
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:26,080
Speaker 1: to get away from, but after three weeks, it is

345
00:15:26,120 --> 00:15:28,560
Speaker 1: fair to say that this Vikings offense or defense rather

346
00:15:28,640 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 1: is going to be a problem for any opposing offenses.

347
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 1: And if you've got guys going against Minnesota in any

348
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 1: week in fantasy at best, lower your expectations if any

349
00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 1: If you have any other options, possibly get away from them,

350
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 1: because right now we always find off defens is to

351
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:46,760
Speaker 1: pick on. We got to find ones to get away from,

352
00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 1: and right now that looks very much like the Minnesota Vikings.

353
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 1: So got plenty more to do here on the show,

354
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 1: We'll get you some waiver wire guys plus some folks

355
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 1: that you know what it's over that's coming up next

356
00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,320
Speaker 1: on the NFL Fantasy Football Show.

357
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 2: Let's take a look at this week's waiver wire options. Florida.

358
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:05,920
Speaker 2: Who should we be looking at this week?

359
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 6: Gino Smith in a good matchup this week against the Lions.

360
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 6: Aaron Rodgers is starting to look like Aaron Rodgers again.

361
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:15,320
Speaker 6: And then we talked a lot about Sam Darnold. Brayln Allen.

362
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:16,960
Speaker 6: We told you to pick up last week. Do not

363
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 6: make the same mistake of leaving him out there this week.

364
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 6: Emmanuel Wilson is getting more and more work there for

365
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 6: the Packers. Justice Hill continues to get all passing down duty.

366
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 6: And then Rosehawn Johnson looked good and was playing a

367
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 6: whole lot more than anticipated this week. And then some

368
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 6: pass catchers, Quentin Johnson if he was still left on

369
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:38,240
Speaker 6: your waiver wire, change that now. Juwan Jennings obviously needs

370
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 6: to be added after what he just did. Alan Wizard

371
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 6: and Wandel Robinson some wide receiver twos for the New

372
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:46,440
Speaker 6: York teams. Jalen Naylor just scores a touchdown every week,

373
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 6: it seems to Mario Douglas very sneaky next week against

374
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 6: the forty nine ers, and then Tyler Conklin and Cole

375
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 6: Comet are coming off of big games and look tight

376
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,400
Speaker 6: end as such a wasteland right now that you could

377
00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 6: do a whole lot worse than one of those two.

378
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 2: Out about it.

379
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 1: Let's talk about Jawan Jennings though, real quick. I mean, look, Lakwan,

380
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:05,879
Speaker 1: it was obviously a huge day for him. Uh in

381
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:09,440
Speaker 1: the losses for the forty nine ers. I'm four touchdowns

382
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:11,199
Speaker 1: or three touchdowns. You know, we can't count on that

383
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,840
Speaker 1: every single week. But it feels like though as long

384
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 1: as Deebo Samuel is banged up and George Kittle is

385
00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:18,600
Speaker 1: sort of banged up, looks like Jawan Jennings is going

386
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:19,639
Speaker 1: to have a role in this offense.

387
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,200
Speaker 4: Absolutely. I mean, the dude's gonna eat six to three.

388
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:24,119
Speaker 3: He's a long body, he catches the ball at the

389
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,320
Speaker 3: highest point, like he's available in the middle of the

390
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 3: field a lot of times.

391
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:28,840
Speaker 4: Like you see that he's a deep threat.

392
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,399
Speaker 3: I mean none of the dbs you know, for the Rams,

393
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,520
Speaker 3: were able to keep up with him. Man Like he

394
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,119
Speaker 3: was just out there doing anything and everything he wanted

395
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,000
Speaker 3: to do, and like he was showing he could be

396
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 3: a deep threat and catch everything underneath short as well.

397
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,639
Speaker 3: Like he's going to be a huge ad on the

398
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:43,600
Speaker 3: waiver wire this week.

399
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 1: Good to see the Niners extended their wide receiver wins

400
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:48,479
Speaker 1: l Brandon Ayuk.

401
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 2: So you know there was that.

402
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 6: I don't doubt you could have this game.

403
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:55,399
Speaker 2: I was I'm not having there are a lot of

404
00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:55,959
Speaker 2: people who did.

405
00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:58,360
Speaker 1: I actually thought he would too, to be honest with you,

406
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,200
Speaker 1: you mentioned flour Lu with the tight end position, which

407
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:05,159
Speaker 1: is really a problem right now. Cole Comet, I know

408
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,240
Speaker 1: the Bears haven't been great offensively, but he does look

409
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 1: like he's going to get some opportunities there even with

410
00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:09,720
Speaker 1: the three.

411
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:11,360
Speaker 2: Well we'll see. Does it happen when the three wide

412
00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 2: receivers come back, I guess is the question.

413
00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 6: In Week one, the only time we really saw all

414
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 6: three play, Comet only had one target, so I'm not

415
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 6: sure if it'll sustain. But right now, who knows what

416
00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,440
Speaker 6: Keenan Allen. This is a heal in issue, going back

417
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 6: to something he was dealing with last season, So I

418
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,680
Speaker 6: don't know if we could really bank on Keenan's availability.

419
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:33,560
Speaker 6: If he does suit up, then the expectations for comet changes.

420
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:37,119
Speaker 6: But eleven targets this past week is something you just

421
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 6: simply cannot ignore. Not at the tight end position. There's

422
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 6: very few usable options right now, and even fewer on

423
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,159
Speaker 6: the waiver wires, So you got to take a chance.

424
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 2: At this point.

425
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:48,959
Speaker 1: If you get seven to nine points out of your

426
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:50,960
Speaker 1: tight end, you gotta kind of feel good about that.

427
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,399
Speaker 2: That else is kind of a bonus at this point.

428
00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 1: So, speaking of guys that maybe are frustrating for us,

429
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:57,920
Speaker 1: get to the segment we're calling.

430
00:18:57,960 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 2: It's over.

431
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,119
Speaker 1: It's been three weeks. These guys haven't produced the things.

432
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 1: The situations look bleak. So for you, LaQuan, who's somebody

433
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:07,440
Speaker 1: where it's like, I'm just done Now.

434
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,080
Speaker 3: I'm so dumb with Will Levis, man, he just he

435
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:15,160
Speaker 3: needs some bonehead mistakes. Man, Just stop playing so reckless

436
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,639
Speaker 3: like he shows us flashes that he could be a

437
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:20,199
Speaker 3: elite quarterback at times where he's able to get out

438
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:22,600
Speaker 3: of pocket, see the vision and make the d pass.

439
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 4: But then there's mistakes where it's just like what are

440
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:25,800
Speaker 4: you thinking?

441
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 2: Like this, what are you doing?

442
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,160
Speaker 3: Like I can't say what was really said, but man,

443
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 3: this is one of those things.

444
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,359
Speaker 4: We all were in sync watching this mistake, like what

445
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:37,080
Speaker 4: are you there? You got what is he doing? But

446
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,400
Speaker 4: it's like, come on, man, you gotta play better.

447
00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:41,920
Speaker 3: And my fantasy roster cannot wait around for him to

448
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 3: be playing reckless ball for the next couple of weeks.

449
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:45,880
Speaker 2: He is great though.

450
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,479
Speaker 1: If you're streaming defenses, you can target Will Levis there

451
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:49,840
Speaker 1: you go, pick Ali Florida.

452
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,960
Speaker 2: Who are you done with now? So?

453
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,600
Speaker 6: I mere whit? I faded him coming into the year.

454
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:58,280
Speaker 6: I have him on one team and I want him

455
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:00,800
Speaker 6: all Like, I understand if maybe you can drop him,

456
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:03,200
Speaker 6: but there's no way you could start him right now.

457
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 6: Through three games, he has thirty two carries and six targets.

458
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:10,040
Speaker 6: That's good for just under eleven carries per game and

459
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,800
Speaker 6: two targets per game. He's played under forty percent of

460
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:14,960
Speaker 6: the snaps in two of the three games, and what's

461
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:18,280
Speaker 6: even worse is he is getting the most low value

462
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,679
Speaker 6: touches you can get. He is used on the ground

463
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:23,639
Speaker 6: between the twenties. When they get into passing down situations,

464
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,239
Speaker 6: they bring in Alexander Madison and when they get on

465
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 6: the goal line, they're like, you know what, Zamir White.

466
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 6: I know you're six foot two fifteen, but we're gonna

467
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:33,840
Speaker 6: call you out. We're going to bring in Alexander Madison

468
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:36,680
Speaker 6: to vulture these touchdowns from you. It is a nightmare.

469
00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,040
Speaker 6: I don't care how many times Antonio Pierce says he

470
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,280
Speaker 6: wants to get him the ball more. It is not happening.

471
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,479
Speaker 6: It didn't happen against the Panthers. You cannot trust him.

472
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Panthers situation was sort of a if it

473
00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:49,359
Speaker 1: doesn't happen, now, when is it going to happen?

474
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:50,639
Speaker 2: And it didn't happen.

475
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,159
Speaker 1: It didn't help that the Raiders got themselves behind by

476
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,360
Speaker 1: multiple scores. They had had to abandon the run game

477
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,720
Speaker 1: as well, but even when they were still close. I

478
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 1: just was looking bad for Zamir White. Similar situation for

479
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 1: DeAndre Swift. And you saw Roshan Johnson's name pop up

480
00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:08,399
Speaker 1: there on that list of waiver options. I thought this

481
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,720
Speaker 1: was going to be a good week for DeAndre Swift

482
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:13,280
Speaker 1: going against the Colts. Their run defense had been awful

483
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 1: all year long. Instead, it turned into a very pass

484
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:19,119
Speaker 1: heavy game for Chicago. You saw Caleb Williams go over

485
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,200
Speaker 1: three hundred and sixty passing yards to get his first

486
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:25,200
Speaker 1: NFL passing touchdown as well. The Bears really didn't try

487
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,359
Speaker 1: to run it, and when they did it was not effective.

488
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:30,560
Speaker 1: I think no play epitomizes the week more than a

489
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,280
Speaker 1: fourth down pitch near the goal line where they're trying

490
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 1: to stretch Swift out to the edge and the blocking

491
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 1: was atrocious. It looked like it looked like a big

492
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:42,520
Speaker 1: box store on Black Friday. The guy's just running through

493
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 1: the offensive line and getting to DeAndre Swift to take

494
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:49,119
Speaker 1: him down. Now you're seeing Rashawn Johnson get more opportunities.

495
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 1: The Bears still cannot score a ton of points. They

496
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,439
Speaker 1: can't run it effectively. So DeAndre Swift was the guy

497
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:56,560
Speaker 1: that you were getting in the mid rounds. The upside

498
00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 1: is that you weren't necessarily pinning a lot of hopes

499
00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 1: on his production. But what he's doing right now doesn't

500
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 1: give you any hope. The Bears offense with Shane Waldron

501
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:07,919
Speaker 1: looks like a mess, and he's going to be very easy,

502
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 1: I think in a lot of fantasy leagues to get

503
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:12,480
Speaker 1: away from DeAndre Swift. I suspect we're going to see

504
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 1: him very heavily on the waiver wire in the few

505
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:15,960
Speaker 1: weeks to come.

506
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:19,400
Speaker 2: Yeah. So yeah, But here's the thing.

507
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:23,160
Speaker 1: It wasn't all bad for running backs across the NFL.

508
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:26,400
Speaker 1: In fact, there's a guy in Kansas City who had

509
00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:28,200
Speaker 1: a pretty good weekend, had a lot of folks living

510
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:29,399
Speaker 1: like curiously through him.

511
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:31,400
Speaker 2: In fact, now let's talk about one of our favorite

512
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:32,640
Speaker 2: moments from the past week.

513
00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:37,480
Speaker 5: Carson Steele's sister Kessler and her now husband Jack just

514
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:40,840
Speaker 5: sent us this video from their wedding reception taking place

515
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:44,200
Speaker 5: as we speak. Watching Carson make his first ever NFL

516
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 5: start wasn't great timing. Today was the only day the

517
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:49,720
Speaker 5: venue was available, as sister set out to save the

518
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 5: date over a year ago, and Carson was supposed to

519
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:54,600
Speaker 5: be a groomsman. But luckily they have the big screen.

520
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:55,200
Speaker 6: He's there in.

521
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:58,359
Speaker 1: Spirit, all right, So I mean like that, it's a

522
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:00,600
Speaker 1: lot of fun. You have the family together, they're watching

523
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:04,480
Speaker 1: Carson steel one. Is he kind of like upstaging his

524
00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:05,359
Speaker 1: sister's wedding.

525
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:12,240
Speaker 6: Yes, yes, Also a wedding is watching a football game

526
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:13,880
Speaker 6: on TV, like like.

527
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:17,439
Speaker 2: Yes, the other part of it is okay. I know.

528
00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,359
Speaker 1: Look, I know that apparently the venue was not available

529
00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:22,520
Speaker 1: very often. They only had certain number of dates. But

530
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 1: he was supposed to be a groomsman. Like his family

531
00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 1: really didn't have a lot of faith that he was

532
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:29,920
Speaker 1: going to be on an NFL roster. Huh, Like, yeah,

533
00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:32,200
Speaker 1: that's kind of nasty work right there, Like, oh, you

534
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:33,960
Speaker 1: would be available, don't worry about it.

535
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,720
Speaker 6: There's in the fall like that would keep you busy.

536
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:42,440
Speaker 6: That's true though he almost wasn't on an NFL roster.

537
00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:46,399
Speaker 2: Very true. He was an undrafted free agent. He was

538
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,119
Speaker 2: an undrafted free agent out of U C.

539
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 3: L A.

540
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:50,240
Speaker 1: He signed with the Chiefs, and I think it was

541
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:51,760
Speaker 1: a little bit of a surprise that he actually did

542
00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,959
Speaker 1: end up making uh the final roster. So I mean,

543
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,440
Speaker 1: good for it. Look good for Carson Steele. I hope

544
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,480
Speaker 1: that his sister and her new husband. I wish them

545
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:02,320
Speaker 1: all the best of luck in their lives and in

546
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:07,760
Speaker 1: their marriage. But yeah, man, U, fall weddings, especially when

547
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 1: your brother plays football, maybe.

548
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 6: Don't or works for the NFL. I have to say

549
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 6: no to a lot of weddings in the.

550
00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 1: Fall because of that. Yeah, yeah, it's tough. You know,

551
00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 1: we also have friends. Just look at you have from

552
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 1: basically from February to July. You can get married then

553
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,080
Speaker 1: and then you know, after that it gets a little

554
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:27,520
Speaker 1: bit tenuous.

555
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:28,520
Speaker 2: It depends how much we like you.

556
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:29,679
Speaker 4: It's probably cheaper.

557
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:33,680
Speaker 2: There you go anyway.

558
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:35,520
Speaker 1: Carson Steel, though, guy who you should pick up off

559
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:36,959
Speaker 1: the waiver wire, looks like he's gonna get a lot

560
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:38,440
Speaker 1: of work in Kansas City.

561
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:40,720
Speaker 2: The meantime, that is it. We are done.

562
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 1: We appreciate you hanging out with the NFL Fantasy Football Show.

563
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:45,680
Speaker 1: You know the drill. Tell two friends to tell two

564
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,760
Speaker 1: friends rate review and remember life is short. Smile while

565
00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:51,320
Speaker 1: you still have teeth. Be safe, to take care of yourselves,

566
00:24:51,480 --> 00:25:22,159
Speaker 1: and we will talk to you tomorrow. H
