Speaker 1: It's supposed to be like thirty degrees in Nashville next week. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's uh, it's pouring rain here today. It definitely got cold,
Speaker 1: and uh, I'll give you a quick news flash. Fall
Speaker 1: is here in Nashville. It was, I mean two weeks
Speaker 1: ago it was ninety degrees, right, That's what I was excited,
Speaker 1: not an exaggeration. Ninety degrees Like two and a half
Speaker 1: weeks ago. I was sitting in my backyard smoking his
Speaker 1: cigar outside and now I don't want to leave my house. Great,
Speaker 1: can't wait to be there next week. You're going here
Speaker 1: for By the way, what you say, good timing on

Speaker 1: so this just like a post wedding, Yeah, a little bit.
Speaker 1: I didn't want to go back to work on one day.
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, what you mean that makes sense.
Speaker 1: I don't want to do anything crazy expensive. It was like,
Speaker 1: you know what cheap light down in Nashville, you know
Speaker 1: what topical days and come back all right, the crazy
Speaker 1: enjoy I try to enjoy it. The point is, you
Speaker 1: know what, I'll just have to drink this day one
Speaker 1: sure why this guy likes a lot of whiskey, So drink.
Speaker 1: I'll listen to some country music would be great. The
Speaker 1: barroom at my house is being updated as we speak,
Speaker 1: massive record shelf being installed, moving stuff around. Uh. Some
Speaker 1: of the the a W Boys are going to be
Speaker 1: in town next week and might stop by for a liaison.
Speaker 1: And uh, like I said to you, you and Judy
Speaker 1: are always Oh you know what's funny because I was
Speaker 1: told I was talking to Frank, I think a W
Speaker 1: is there Wednesday or so, and I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: that's crazy, because I'm also there Wednesday. She's like, you
Speaker 1: go to a W on on this track. I was like,
Speaker 1: I know what, think you probably can't do that. You
Speaker 1: probably can't finagle that one. But you're your boys with
Speaker 1: m jf right, So yeah, if you wanted to, you
Speaker 1: probably could probably be in town. Yeah. Anyway, are you
Speaker 1: gonna have any uh any Bubbly in your in your
Speaker 1: establishment next week? Yeah, the Masterard Master of the Bubbly
Speaker 1: probably gonna stop by. So we'll we'll see, And it
Speaker 1: depends on how light the show goes and stuff. I've
Speaker 1: been talking to a couple of the guys, so, uh,
Speaker 1: wrestling is definitely a small world. Um, Frank Chris Daniels
Speaker 1: are two of my very very good friends. So I'm
Speaker 1: hoping that they're going to stop by, and uh the Champ,
Speaker 1: the Champ Mr Jericho also a very very good friend
Speaker 1: of mine. So we'll see what happens. Awesome Jergo was
Speaker 1: in New York. Jergy was in New York yesterday. Jerk
Speaker 1: goes everywhere. Yeah, the dude's everywhere all the time. So
Speaker 1: uh yeah, so aw this Saturday night full gear, so
Speaker 1: that'd be cool. Um, your birthday Saturday night, Frank, we
Speaker 1: all I going on this weekend? Yes, it is my
Speaker 1: my birthday Saturday night. I won't really be able to
Speaker 1: celebrate it. That's why sorrow. So I'm doing it tomorrow Friday,
Speaker 1: I'll be celebrating my birthday and then Saturday the big extravaganza.
Speaker 1: It's going down, all right, let's get into what we're
Speaker 1: doing on the show today. Show it all right? On
Speaker 1: the show we got the leftovers coming up in just
Speaker 1: a few moments. You know who's still in the waiver wire?
Speaker 1: Who's worth going out there? Uh? And in getting in
Speaker 1: fantasy basketball, I think the super Mario Herzonia. That's where
Speaker 1: we are in fantasy waivers, not northerly, Frank, I know,
Speaker 1: I yelled at um. We don't have anyone to drop. Greg.
Speaker 1: I might have been down with it, but our team
Speaker 1: is too stacked. All right. After that, we had inside
Speaker 1: injuries with Virginia Zakis. Virginia will join us today. We
Speaker 1: have coming up a Thursday night football preview charges of Raiders.
Speaker 1: As Frank said, it's a good one. And then we're
Speaker 1: gonna play a very special edition of is Mike Lying
Speaker 1: with a special guest host me? So it's is Greg lying?
Speaker 1: The show is named is Mike Lying. I don't want
Speaker 1: to take Florio show away from him? That fair copyrighted.
Speaker 1: He he might have it's trademorrow, the whole deal, but
Speaker 1: I will filly from Mike Florio and host is Mike
Speaker 1: lying to wrap up to day show. I'm gonna do
Speaker 1: it earlier. I want to make sure we, you know,
Speaker 1: get it in. There's questions. Okay, this might be one
Speaker 1: of the only things in life that I can actually
Speaker 1: beat Eric young Att, because we know I won't beat
Speaker 1: him at anything involving physicality or athleticism. So this is
Speaker 1: my only shot. So I will be trying my best.
Speaker 1: I also will know e y. Frank spent a good
Speaker 1: hour before the show's studying and I was like, are
Speaker 1: you seriously studying talking about I'm doing my rank? Are
Speaker 1: you really studying right now? I'm doing my rank? What
Speaker 1: are you talking about? I'm currently doing my rank. He's
Speaker 1: scared to be the right, scared of being beaten. Right here, Greg,
Speaker 1: look look at the rankings page. I'm updating my rankings.
Speaker 1: Greg has no idea what he's talking about. As usual,
Speaker 1: I exactly what I'm talking about. Frank, I'm calling you
Speaker 1: right at He didn't you like? That's sorry? You know what,
Speaker 1: I gotta study to keep up, keep up with the
Speaker 1: y to keep pace. Yeah, so that is what is
Speaker 1: happening on today's program should be a good one. Let's
Speaker 1: start calling news and notes before we get to the leftovers.
Speaker 1: The first A J. Green's engle hurts, So he's like,
Speaker 1: you know what, I gotta play on Sunday And we're like, yeah,
Speaker 1: we know when they call that, when they call that,
Speaker 1: when they call that finneyitis, Yes, exactly, he's coming down
Speaker 1: with a serious case of it. But we've said this
Speaker 1: all along, right, He's going into a contract year. He
Speaker 1: wants to get paid. Why is he going to risk
Speaker 1: his hell for a team that is going nowhere? They
Speaker 1: are winless and he has said in the past that
Speaker 1: he wants to remain a Bengal for life. A lot
Speaker 1: of people say things that they don't necessarily mean. So
Speaker 1: we'll see what happens money talks in the off season.
Speaker 1: I'm sure A J. Green would like to join a
Speaker 1: contending team as well. I don't think that the Cincinnati
Speaker 1: Bengals will be contending anytime soon. The timeline just doesn't
Speaker 1: match up here. You know again, I think at this
Speaker 1: point in his career, he wants to get paid, He
Speaker 1: wants to try to compete and the Cincinnati Bengals are
Speaker 1: going through a rebuild, so I don't think it makes
Speaker 1: a lot of sense for him to remain with the
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals. But we shall see Greg. All right, we
Speaker 1: take right here when we were or the leftovers are
Speaker 1: up next, Well, you know who's still in the waiver wire,
Speaker 1: and it's worth picking up. Figure it out together, the
Speaker 1: three of us, the three best friends forever here on.
Speaker 1: The NFL season is now upon us, and you can
Speaker 1: become the eighth person awayen one million dollars in a

Speaker 1: let me start here with the leftover sports of the program.
Speaker 1: Also overmind you subscribe. You were a channels Now Sports crediv,
Speaker 1: the fantasy sports that were a channel. Still us still exist,
Speaker 1: new name of sports grew TVs. If you're watching us

Speaker 1: more confusion. Grade. We don't. We don't have a sports

Speaker 1: you subscribe. As Greg mentioned, give us a thumbs up,
Speaker 1: send us a comment, rate reviews, subscribe wherever you listen
Speaker 1: to us. We'd appreciate it. Now we start with the
Speaker 1: leftovers in my home league, where I again terrible team.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's right, Danny, you have a bump. Let's
Speaker 1: play that. This is leftovers. Still didn't get your fill
Speaker 1: from the waiver wire? One more? The BFFs has your leftovers?
Speaker 1: Watch this? Never mind, give me a whole lot of it.
Speaker 1: All right, there we go. It's leftovers portion of the
Speaker 1: program in my home league. But he was terrible. I
Speaker 1: might need not one, but two snorting running backs. You
Speaker 1: only need to start two running backs, and I might
Speaker 1: need both of them. I'm sorry. Yeah, bye week Blues,
Speaker 1: the bye bye bye bye bye bye correct week Blues. Indeed,
Speaker 1: so I lost Sony Michelle. I don't have James Conner
Speaker 1: potentially se who happens there? So I gotta look to
Speaker 1: the leftovers. Is the only running back that was out
Speaker 1: there on waivers was Kylen Milage and I didn't get him.
Speaker 1: Can he't care either? Was Kylen Milage? Sucks? So I
Speaker 1: love Lamar Miller's Solar Miller. So I looked to the
Speaker 1: leftovers right to try to find a starting running back.
Speaker 1: Do you have one for meat? I do have an
Speaker 1: interesting name if you are desperate, which it sounds like
Speaker 1: you are pretty desperate here, Greg and that man Thus
Speaker 1: Edwards of the Baltimore Ravens. This week, the Bengals are
Speaker 1: nine and a half point favorites. They could be playing
Speaker 1: with a big lead in this one. The last time
Speaker 1: the Even's faced off against the Cincinnati Bengals, that was
Speaker 1: the exact case here, and it's a really good matchup obviously.
Speaker 1: With the Cincinnati Bengals allowing four point eight six yards
Speaker 1: were carried to opposing running backs, they allow the second
Speaker 1: most fantasy points to running backs as well. I expect
Speaker 1: mark Ingram to get his. I expect Lamar Jackson to
Speaker 1: also get his. Lamar Jackson didn't practice today. He's only
Speaker 1: dealing with an illness. He is okay. But in the
Speaker 1: fourth quarter of that game, they're playing with a big lead,
Speaker 1: I expect Gus Edwards to get his you know, six
Speaker 1: to ten carries, maybe even a little bit more if
Speaker 1: they do have that big lead that we all expect. Greg.
Speaker 1: So if you're desperate, I think Gus Edwards makes a
Speaker 1: lot of sense based on the matchup. So Gus Edwards, Uy,
Speaker 1: somebody I am considering picking up off the waiver wire.
Speaker 1: A couple of other names. Frank Gore, he's out there.
Speaker 1: I know. Devin Sildar, he stepped up. Frank Gore. You
Speaker 1: can find the Enzo Kenny. Yeah, I mean he is
Speaker 1: the infinity Stone, uh everyone when he came out of
Speaker 1: the drops at all, his knees are no good. Even
Speaker 1: if he's good in the first couple of years, he
Speaker 1: won't play very long. Five years tops. Well, here we
Speaker 1: are twenty nineteen. Frank Gore still playing football at a
Speaker 1: high level. I might add, um so yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: you could do worse than him, for sure, um J D. Mckissic,
Speaker 1: because another guy that might be available, he to me,
Speaker 1: has looked like the best uh, Detroit Lions running back.
Speaker 1: That's not saying a whole lot, but when he's had
Speaker 1: his opportunities, he's like the best scored a touchdown last week,
Speaker 1: and you get j D McKissick. J D McKissick, somebody
Speaker 1: that's odd still on the waiver wire and if you're desperate.
Speaker 1: Kind of makes sense for my TVR perspective. JD McKissick
Speaker 1: not a bad one at all. E y for me.
Speaker 1: The other one I considering kind of similar to j
Speaker 1: D McKissick, Jie Bernard, Why not, they're gonna be down
Speaker 1: right right if he had to dumb it off to somebody, Well,
Speaker 1: I'm hoping that somebody is Joe Mixon. The usage for
Speaker 1: Joe Mixon has been so frustrating all season. One of
Speaker 1: the best receiving backs in his draft class coming out
Speaker 1: of college, just not being used enough in the past game.
Speaker 1: So we shall see. Greg. They're likely playing for behind
Speaker 1: as you mentioned, and Ryan Finley. He excels more so
Speaker 1: in he's short to intermediate routes. He had a high
Speaker 1: completion percentage in the preseason through a lot to his
Speaker 1: running backs. So I think that your thought process is correct.
Speaker 1: I would lean with e Y if both are available.
Speaker 1: I do like j. D. McKissick. Last week only played
Speaker 1: thirty eight percent of the snaps, but he found pay
Speaker 1: dirt going up against the Chicago Bears to allow a
Speaker 1: ton of receptions to opposing running backs. And since you
Speaker 1: since the Chem Hicks has gone down, Greg, they're now
Speaker 1: allowing a ton of fantasy points as well and touchdowns.
Speaker 1: They have allowed eight total touchdowns to running backs over
Speaker 1: their last five games. So I think all of those
Speaker 1: names make sense to me. Frank Gore is a little
Speaker 1: bit tougher because Devin siggles Harry really took over this
Speaker 1: backfield last week, played sixty six percent of the snaps.
Speaker 1: Funny Carries had four targets. Frank Gore had just eleven carries.
Speaker 1: He had just fifteen total yards. He was stuffed three
Speaker 1: times on the goal line, and it wasn't a good game.
Speaker 1: You know, he's going up against the Cleveland Browns, who
Speaker 1: you know, you there are fantasy points to be had
Speaker 1: against the Cleveland Browns. They're allowing four point nine three
Speaker 1: yards per carry two opposing running backs. That is the
Speaker 1: second most in the NFL. But I expect a monster
Speaker 1: game out of Devin Singletary here. Uh is JD. Mkissic
Speaker 1: available in your league? Or no, let's find out. If
Speaker 1: he's not, then the guys that I would lean with
Speaker 1: our Gore and gust Edwards over Gio Bernardard alright, So
Speaker 1: mckissic will be first for you. Maybe one of the
Speaker 1: Jets guys too, if either is available. If Levi Bell can't,
Speaker 1: you know he's practicing on a limited basic owned okay,
Speaker 1: um is Ball Powell available? He might be a sneaky
Speaker 1: one as well. He has had more snaps and more
Speaker 1: touches over the past two weeks than time Montgomery. Time
Speaker 1: Montgomery practicing in full there was some center limited limited practice. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's just it's kind of it's a situation where Gustbus
Speaker 1: is own a gust bus. Did he just get picked
Speaker 1: up or all right? I would, I would Gio Bernard,
Speaker 1: I would probably still speculate on Powell just for now.
Speaker 1: I don't think anyone's gonna pick up Geobernard. You're probably yeah,
Speaker 1: I think you'll be all right with that one, right,
Speaker 1: that's fantastic. I don't have any money for Gore. Let's go.
Speaker 1: The affinity stone starting to fade a little bit, Yes, yes,
Speaker 1: he is not infinity anymore. All Right, If you're in
Speaker 1: my position, but you're looking for a wide receiver, Frank,
Speaker 1: what are you get to? I think there's a few
Speaker 1: interesting names still available on the waiver wire. One of
Speaker 1: the ones that I was looking at is Deebo Samuel,
Speaker 1: who played more snaps last week. He had the snap
Speaker 1: percentage up to six or six percent of the stats.
Speaker 1: He had seven targets in a good matchup, should have
Speaker 1: scored a touchdown. If you're watching last Thursday night a
Speaker 1: week ago, this time, Deebo Samuel has dropped. That touchdown
Speaker 1: was wide open. I do not think that the Seahawks
Speaker 1: secondary is a good one. I think that Jimmy Garoppolo
Speaker 1: can have some success here. I still do think Emmanuel
Speaker 1: Sanders and George Kittle are are one and two in
Speaker 1: the pecking order in terms of targets. But Deebo Samuel
Speaker 1: is starting to come along a little bit more here.
Speaker 1: Greg the targets starting to come along as well, So
Speaker 1: I think Deebo Samuel is an interesting name. I'll also
Speaker 1: throw out your boy, Darius Layton of the New York Giants.
Speaker 1: It's a good matchup going up against the Jets here.
Speaker 1: You know, they actually put Tremaine Johnson on I r
Speaker 1: actually hurts because he's so bad. You want him to
Speaker 1: be on the field so that wide receivers can take advantage.
Speaker 1: But either way, we just saw Davante Parker, E Wise
Speaker 1: Boy and Preston Williams combined for three receiving touchdowns last week.
Speaker 1: We saw the week before that Gardner Minshew through for
Speaker 1: three touchdowns against this Jet secondary. They are not good.
Speaker 1: Sterling Shepherd not looking like he's going to play. Evan
Speaker 1: Ingram already ruled out. So it's golden tape. And who
Speaker 1: I think that Darius Laton is actually in a good
Speaker 1: spot here against the Jets. Craig, So I agree, Darius
Speaker 1: Layton could be an option. Manny Fowler, Cody Latimer also
Speaker 1: playing snaps at wide receiver for the Giants. But Darius Layton,
Speaker 1: who is the clear number two option in these Giants offense.
Speaker 1: He has a Jet secondary that's vulnerable. I think you're desperate,
Speaker 1: makes sense. He's certainly out there on a lot of
Speaker 1: waiver wires. Why what are you thinking about the wide
Speaker 1: receiver position those that could be left over. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think Slayton would be the guy that I would go
Speaker 1: after first, just because he's probably gonna have the biggest opportunity.
Speaker 1: But another guy you want to keep your eye on
Speaker 1: maybe is Adam Humphries. Uh kind of had a decent
Speaker 1: game last week. Um, Mahomes is supposed to return, They're
Speaker 1: going to score. Tannehill is going to have the throw,
Speaker 1: and uh, he seems to really trust Humphries. Um. We
Speaker 1: had to saw a big game out of John H.
Speaker 1: Smith and then last week we didn't see a whole lot.
Speaker 1: So Humphrey, especially in a PPR, could be a sneaky
Speaker 1: guy to play this week. Why I want to ask you, man,
Speaker 1: I don't watch the Titans, probably as close as I
Speaker 1: should know he probably shouldn't. But but ultimately it's what's
Speaker 1: the deal with Corey Davis? Man? Is it just he's
Speaker 1: not good? He can't get on the same page with
Speaker 1: any of the quarterbacks because we made the excuse for
Speaker 1: him that Marcus Mariota wasn't getting him the ball, and
Speaker 1: we saw that first game with Tannehill take over, and
Speaker 1: we thought that, all right, well, maybe this is what
Speaker 1: Corey Davis finally needed. Someone who can consistently target him,
Speaker 1: consistently get him the ball out in space and he's
Speaker 1: gonna make the most of it. But now it's two
Speaker 1: games in a row where he's let us down again.
Speaker 1: You talk about Adam Humphries who's coming along, and A. J.
Speaker 1: Brown is actually the one that's stepping up and making
Speaker 1: the most plays and he's playing more snaps. So you know,
Speaker 1: what are you seeing out of this Titans passing attack
Speaker 1: right now? What is wrong with Corey Davis? Is he
Speaker 1: just not good? Is? Is that the answer? Well? I
Speaker 1: think it comes down to the bare minimum. Is this
Speaker 1: look like Tannehill? I think is a very obvious and
Speaker 1: present upgrade at the quarterback position. But in no way
Speaker 1: is Ryan Tannehill a good quarterback. I mean, like we've
Speaker 1: seen this guy play football before. Um, he has an improvement.
Speaker 1: The Titans want to run the ball, they want to
Speaker 1: control the clock, they want short passes. Um. I think
Speaker 1: Davis is a great athlete. Is he a good wide
Speaker 1: receiver in the NFL? We don't know yet. I think
Speaker 1: when they throw it his way, he looks good. I
Speaker 1: mean he makes some good catches. But Brown does seem
Speaker 1: like the more explosive option at this point. We take
Speaker 1: a break here when we come back, Jusakis joins the
Speaker 1: program Inside Injuries, He updates next NFL season is now

Speaker 1: I can get off Inside Injuries with Virginia Zakis. But
Speaker 1: a scratch, a scratch, the arms off all right? Thursday
Speaker 1: brings us from Inside Injuries Virginia Zakas, what's happening in Virginia?
Speaker 1: Hey guys, how's it going? It's going very very well.
Speaker 1: How's going with you going well? Busy week of injuries.
Speaker 1: A lot of injuries this week, not just in the
Speaker 1: NFL either, Know you're dealing. This was going on Simmons
Speaker 1: last night, Triple j in the n b A as well,
Speaker 1: not good to return for him, Frank, But in the NFL,
Speaker 1: of course it's always plentiful. So let me be game
Speaker 1: with what happened last week to Adam Field and he returned. Uh,
Speaker 1: in these games, he had a couple of weeks off
Speaker 1: with a hamstring injury. It didn't even take him a
Speaker 1: quarter to re injure himself. He says, it's not severe.
Speaker 1: I'll be back soon. Is that true? Yeah, Unfortunately, anytime
Speaker 1: there's an aggravation to a hamstring injury like this, it's
Speaker 1: definitely more serious the second time around. Um, you know
Speaker 1: two weeks around. Two weeks wasn't enough for it to
Speaker 1: heal last time. We're now saying that he needs four
Speaker 1: weeks um from last weekend for the injury to heal,
Speaker 1: so actually saying that he shouldn't return until around week thirteen. Um,
Speaker 1: they have a buy in week twelve, so I think
Speaker 1: there's a pretty good chance that that happens. If he
Speaker 1: returns in week eleven, he's going to be at a
Speaker 1: very very high risk of injury. Um. He's already not
Speaker 1: expected to play this weekend, so hopefully he sits out
Speaker 1: through week thirteen. And then he's good for the final
Speaker 1: month of this season. So you go, Adam Feeling, this
Speaker 1: is week ten, they have a bye week twelve, should
Speaker 1: be out ten, eleven, twelve. Essentially you get him back
Speaker 1: for the fantasy playoffs. Adam Feeling not gonna be a
Speaker 1: part of your fantasy playoff push, And I think that
Speaker 1: makes a lot of sense as well, just based on
Speaker 1: somebody re injuring their hamstring. They usually do take a
Speaker 1: couple of weeks off after that, so I'm gonna likely
Speaker 1: miss this week next week as well, and then they
Speaker 1: have that buy in week twelve. So not what Adam
Speaker 1: Feeling owners want to hear, but maybe music to Stefon
Speaker 1: Diggs's owner's ears right now, Greg and someone that week
Speaker 1: you had a dream about Stephen or Maryland Terrapins, So
Speaker 1: wouldn't surprise me. You're always dreaming about those terms, Greg.
Speaker 1: Somebody that we share on a team together, Greg, that
Speaker 1: we really need to find out about here Virginia is
Speaker 1: James Conner of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Apparently he's been practicing
Speaker 1: on a limited basis. He said last week on his
Speaker 1: radio show that he was gonna play last week. Well
Speaker 1: guess what he didn't He did not play last week.
Speaker 1: How are we looking for this week when it comes
Speaker 1: to James Conner and that a C joints frame, So
Speaker 1: our outlook now is pretty similar to what it was
Speaker 1: last week for James Connor. He's dealing with an A
Speaker 1: C sprain to his right shoulder. UM, this is an
Speaker 1: injury that might not heal within a few weeks, but
Speaker 1: players should be able to return and play pretty well. UM.
Speaker 1: A lot of it is a pain management issue. That
Speaker 1: doesn't mean that you know, Connor should have played last
Speaker 1: week because he likely would have been in a lot
Speaker 1: of pain had he played. UM. Sometimes when we say
Speaker 1: pain management, a lot of you know, as viewers, want
Speaker 1: to just say suck it up, you'll be fine, But UM,
Speaker 1: it can't be pretty painful. But I do think he
Speaker 1: should be able to play this weekend. Unless this is
Speaker 1: a more serious UM sprain than they're letting on. But
Speaker 1: I think he'll be good to go. UM. He is
Speaker 1: still a high injury risk just because you know, anytime
Speaker 1: he takes a big hit or if he falls hard
Speaker 1: on that side, he could aggregate it. But his health
Speaker 1: performance factor is in the above average category UM, which
Speaker 1: indicates he should play pretty well this weekend, all right, Greg, alright,
Speaker 1: James Karner get back in the lineup. You read something
Speaker 1: earlier today that expected that James Connor would miss it. Actually,
Speaker 1: immediately somebody off the practice squad edited running or ended
Speaker 1: running back to the active roster. And I don't know
Speaker 1: if that was related the Tray Admonds or James Conner,
Speaker 1: probably the former. But Ed Mouchette, a very popular and
Speaker 1: very very good beat reporter from Pittsburgh, does not think
Speaker 1: that we will see James Conner on the Sunday. We'll say, yeah,
Speaker 1: we shall see you. Trey Edmonds also dealing with an injury,
Speaker 1: so they need some bodies there in the backfield, so
Speaker 1: that might make some sense for them as well. And
Speaker 1: we talking about Survivor earlier this week, cause I'm still
Speaker 1: in Survivor and I need to win this week and
Speaker 1: the most obvious solution for me Virginia is to go
Speaker 1: with the Indianapolis Colts, but of course they're starting quarterback.
Speaker 1: Jacoby Brissett didn't really play last week after injuring his knee.
Speaker 1: It looked like an mcl sprain, nothing uh, super super significant.
Speaker 1: But if he came out all less week, he practiced
Speaker 1: on a limited basis yesterday. Do we think that Jacoby
Speaker 1: Brissette plays on Sunday? Um? Right now, I think it's
Speaker 1: probably slightly better than that he plays. Um. It looked
Speaker 1: like he so his brent leg was planted as one
Speaker 1: of his linemen fell into his leg. Um. He also
Speaker 1: sort of appeared to tweak his ankle on the play.
Speaker 1: But I think his me is more of an issue. UM.
Speaker 1: I didn't see anything that was too concerning on the play. UM,
Speaker 1: And like many quarterbacks, he was already wearing a large
Speaker 1: brace on his lead leg. Um. A lot of a
Speaker 1: lot of quarterbacks do it to protect themselves from this
Speaker 1: exact kind of injury. So UM, if he does play,
Speaker 1: expect to see him wear a brace. His mobility could
Speaker 1: very well be limited. But it's the kind of injury
Speaker 1: that he should should be able to play through, um,
Speaker 1: if not this week, next week, and should be able
Speaker 1: to play pretty well on it. So he's an elevated
Speaker 1: injury risk. But I think he has a decent chance
Speaker 1: playing Week ten. Alright, so we'll take that quarterback uh
Speaker 1: in again. But the thing is they should win, right,
Speaker 1: you're facing mihammy. You don't necessarily want to push it.
Speaker 1: I asked very much like him to play for set.
Speaker 1: I hope they do. But even with Brian Horror, you
Speaker 1: should probably feel pretty good about the Colts and survivor
Speaker 1: this week. Anyway, Look, Brian Hoyer just throw three touchdowns
Speaker 1: against a really good Steelers secretary Virginia want to pivot
Speaker 1: to another quarterback in the a f C, and that
Speaker 1: is Patrick Mahomes, who, right up until game time last
Speaker 1: week was a game time decisions and he was he
Speaker 1: was questionable and it seemed like, you know, maybe there
Speaker 1: was a chance he could go. Ultimately they let him
Speaker 1: rest one more week. He was a full participant in
Speaker 1: practice yesterday as he's dealing with that knee injury. I
Speaker 1: know all along that inside injuries has had a longer
Speaker 1: timetable for Patrick Mahomes, but you've also said that you
Speaker 1: think this is something that he can play through once
Speaker 1: he's good to go. Is this one of those weeks
Speaker 1: in week ten where he will be good to go? Yeah,
Speaker 1: So getting past that three week mark is huge for
Speaker 1: this type of injury. Um and it was exactly three
Speaker 1: weeks ago that he was hurt. So I do think
Speaker 1: the fact that they held him out last week is
Speaker 1: very good news for his overall health. UM. He's still
Speaker 1: a high injury risk, but his numbers have improved significantly
Speaker 1: over the last week. UM. You know, when when a
Speaker 1: player dislocates their kneecap, there's always going to be a
Speaker 1: higher chance for the rest of the season that they
Speaker 1: dislocated again. UM. That MPFL ligament in there is likely
Speaker 1: still stretched out. It's not going to get back to
Speaker 1: normal yet. UM. And there could also be some cartilage
Speaker 1: damage still going on in there. UM still believe it's
Speaker 1: possible that he could also need surgery in the offseason,
Speaker 1: although I'm not sure about that. UM. And that's that's
Speaker 1: not necessarily That doesn't mean that he can't try to
Speaker 1: play through it. So I think it's still gonna be painful. UM,
Speaker 1: we're sticking with our original six weeks optimal recovery time.
Speaker 1: I think his mobility is going to be affected a
Speaker 1: little bit. UM, He's not gonna be able to scramble
Speaker 1: and kind of make those wild plays or as many
Speaker 1: wild plays as he sometimes does. But I think he's
Speaker 1: got a pretty good shot at playing this weekend. UM.
Speaker 1: But his style might change a little bit, and so
Speaker 1: the style can be not dismillar for what wee know.
Speaker 1: Matt Moore, who it wasn't really ability to move at
Speaker 1: this stage of his career, obviously can make all the
Speaker 1: throws he needs to, and maybe that's what we have
Speaker 1: from Patrick Mahomes on Sunday. Yeah, Greg, I just want
Speaker 1: to remind people that, you know, he was already hampered
Speaker 1: with an ankle injury earlier in the season that was
Speaker 1: affecting his play as well, so we might see more
Speaker 1: of that Patrick Mahomes rather than the Mahomes of the
Speaker 1: first couple of weeks where he was completely lighting up
Speaker 1: the scoreboard. I think he's still going to be very good,
Speaker 1: but is he going to be the clear cut QB
Speaker 1: one overall the way that Lamar Jackson is playing with
Speaker 1: I leaned towards probably not. But he's likely going to
Speaker 1: still be a top five options for your fantasy teams.
Speaker 1: Just keep in mind, you know, he's dealing with a
Speaker 1: lot right now between that knee and maybe even the ankle,
Speaker 1: so just keep these things in mind. Let me ask
Speaker 1: about a third quarterback, Frank And it's another game I'm
Speaker 1: picking in Survivors New Orleans and Atlanta. Matt Ryan last
Speaker 1: time we saw stand on the sideline. He didn't play
Speaker 1: through an ankle injury, found us how to buy. The
Speaker 1: expectation is he'll be back in that game. What do
Speaker 1: you think? Yeah, so we've given him a three week
Speaker 1: optimal recovery time, which means his healthy to return date
Speaker 1: is in week ten. Um, he's not back in the
Speaker 1: low risk category, of course, just because once the player
Speaker 1: suffers this kind of an ankle injury, the ligaments get
Speaker 1: stretched out and it takes a lot longer for them
Speaker 1: to get back to normal. So he's an elevated injury
Speaker 1: risk right now. But it looks like he's going to play.
Speaker 1: His health performance factor is also above average, so again
Speaker 1: that's a sign. I think he's gonna play pretty well
Speaker 1: this weekend as long as they run about there. All right,
Speaker 1: So sounds pretty good there from Virginia. I want to
Speaker 1: ask you about there's a lot of implications here because
Speaker 1: of Kamara is not maybe we see some more of
Speaker 1: Latavious Murray. Yesterday I thought this was interesting that Alvin
Speaker 1: Kamara was still limited in practice. Now. I don't know
Speaker 1: if that was just because all right, it's Wednesday, let's
Speaker 1: not push this guy too hard. But Virginia. I thought
Speaker 1: that coming back from the bye week, Alvin Kamara would
Speaker 1: have been from this ankle injury. Is that not the case?
Speaker 1: What was his optimal recovery time? And should we be
Speaker 1: worried heading into week ten? Yeah? So we originally gave
Speaker 1: him a four week optimal recovery time. UM. That's for
Speaker 1: a combination of his ankle and his knee. Knee injury
Speaker 1: looked like a mild m c L sprain, so that
Speaker 1: should you know, pretty much be healed within a few weeks.
Speaker 1: Ankle injury appeared to be a mild high ankle sprain. UM.
Speaker 1: So given that we thought he had a four week
Speaker 1: optimal recovery time, that means we think he should be
Speaker 1: good to go in week ten. UM. Now, his injury
Speaker 1: risk is still elevated, so there's still some risk there
Speaker 1: and they're likely will be for at least the next
Speaker 1: few weeks, but I think he should be able to play. UM.
Speaker 1: If he doesn't get into full practice either today or tomorrow,
Speaker 1: I will be a little bit more concerned. But I'm
Speaker 1: hoping the limited practice on Wednesday was just you know,
Speaker 1: them easing him back into things, making sure his ankle
Speaker 1: and his knee respond well overnight, he doesn't experience too
Speaker 1: much swelling or soreness. UM, no setbacks, and then you
Speaker 1: know again, hopefully he he continues to improve a practice
Speaker 1: and do a little bit more by the end of
Speaker 1: the week. UM, and if that happens, I think he'll
Speaker 1: be good to go this weekend. Good news. Alvin Kamara,
Speaker 1: who should be ready to rock here the Sunday for
Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints going home. A couple more players
Speaker 1: you want to get to here, Virginia. Let me stay
Speaker 1: at the running back position where David Johnson has deemed
Speaker 1: himself ready to rock for this weekend and levy On
Speaker 1: Bell had an m R in his knee, but he
Speaker 1: did return to practice on a limited basis today. Are
Speaker 1: both running backs ready to rock on Sunday? Yes? So
Speaker 1: David Johnson dealing with that ankle injury, he tried to
Speaker 1: play through it, um and then went on to miss
Speaker 1: the next two weeks. UM, we're actually showing that he's
Speaker 1: going to hit his healthy to return date in week ten. UM. Now,
Speaker 1: he's still a high injury risk because of this ankle
Speaker 1: jury and other injuries he's dealt with recently, UM, but
Speaker 1: his health performance back after his hovering between the below
Speaker 1: average and above average category this weekend. So you know,
Speaker 1: not too confident that he's going to have a huge game,
Speaker 1: but he should be able to go out there and contribute.
Speaker 1: Hopefully the Cardinals don't play him, you know, every down,
Speaker 1: um and really run him to the ground. Hopefully they
Speaker 1: manage his rips um. Levan Bell underwent an m r
Speaker 1: I on his knee. I didn't see any concerning plays
Speaker 1: in the game where he might have heard it, but um,
Speaker 1: nothing structurally wrong with it. We're showing the grade one
Speaker 1: knee sprain, um, so that's a milder knee spring two
Speaker 1: week optimal recovery time. So we're actually showing that it's
Speaker 1: better if he misses this week and then waits to
Speaker 1: return in week eleven. All right, So pay attention again
Speaker 1: to Bill all Powell and Tie Montgomery. Greg, and again
Speaker 1: Powell is the one play more snap, seeing more touches
Speaker 1: over the past couple of weeks. Desperation play but again,
Speaker 1: bye bye bye bye bye bye. Makes people very desperate.
Speaker 1: Greg Virginia appreciate the time. Let's do it again next week.
Speaker 1: Sounds good. I'll be back there, all right. Fantastic Kevin Ingram,
Speaker 1: he's not playing this week. Neither's a j. Green. As
Speaker 1: we mentioned earlier on we come back at Thursday Night
Speaker 1: Football Preview, and is Mike lion't to answer those questions.
Speaker 1: Next NFL season is now upon us, so you can
Speaker 1: become the eighth person away one million dollars in a

Speaker 1: back to back wins. They were like, oh, this is
Speaker 1: what LA does over the back calf of the season.
Speaker 1: The first win came on a missed field goal and
Speaker 1: it was wasn't even a hard field golf was a
Speaker 1: Bears field goal was in a forty yard or forty one.
Speaker 1: And then last week. The wind coming is a team
Speaker 1: that flat out didn't show up and stead after the game,
Speaker 1: Hey we didn't show up. I'm not doing that as
Speaker 1: a by sign on l A. What's live week days
Speaker 1: three or four pm Eastern on Sports Grade and Sumotiv
Speaker 1: Channel seven nine. Team all right, lots do not that
Speaker 1: much time to do it, Frank, what do you want
Speaker 1: to do? You place first or you want to do
Speaker 1: Thursday night football first? I want to make sure we
Speaker 1: get enough time for Thursday night football in so let's
Speaker 1: start with that. Alright, let's begin Thursday football is a
Speaker 1: good one to night. Wise, the Chargers head to Oakland
Speaker 1: to take on the Raiders last two times, last time
Speaker 1: these two two teams will play in Oakland, with the
Speaker 1: Raiders set to move to Vegas next year. You asked
Speaker 1: during the break about starting Mike Williams tonight. I know
Speaker 1: Frank absolutely loves Mike Williams. What do you think? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, this is a guy that I was super
Speaker 1: high on the off season and hasn't done a whole lot,
Speaker 1: but showed up last week. Um, even with Hunter Henry
Speaker 1: on the field, which I think a lot of people
Speaker 1: thought was going to act as red zone play. I do.
Speaker 1: I do think he scores a touchdown here. I think
Speaker 1: this is gonna be a bit of a shootout. I mean,
Speaker 1: for me, the most surprising thing thing in this game,
Speaker 1: in this NFL season is Derek Carr's quarterback play. He
Speaker 1: looks really good, Yeah, he does. The QB rating is
Speaker 1: up this year, yards per attempt up for Derek Carr
Speaker 1: as well. That's why this game is actually a really
Speaker 1: really tough one to call. It's one of these divisional matchups,
Speaker 1: and it's cliche. Oh, it's the division game. You know
Speaker 1: it's gonna come down to the wire. But I actually
Speaker 1: think that this is going to be a really really
Speaker 1: close game because I think these teams are similar right now.
Speaker 1: You know, the Oakland Raiders offense is playing really well.
Speaker 1: They do have some cracks in the defense in terms
Speaker 1: of the secondary. You know, we'll talk about Mike Williams
Speaker 1: and Keenan Allen getting it done here, but they've been
Speaker 1: tougher against the run. So Melvin Gordon, if you have him,
Speaker 1: you're likely still using him. He's a high nd RB
Speaker 1: two tonight. But yeah, let's let's start with Mike Williams
Speaker 1: and Keenan Allen here Greg, it was a book question.
Speaker 1: That's why I did. Last week, both Marvin Jones and
Speaker 1: Kenny Galady went for over ards and scored a touchdown.
Speaker 1: Oakland is allowing these second most fantasy points to opposing
Speaker 1: wide receivers. How about this, Greg. Since Hutcher Henry has return,
Speaker 1: he actually leads the Chargers in target share, which is
Speaker 1: insane twenty percent of the target chair over the past month.
Speaker 1: That's just a massive amount four tight ends. So really
Speaker 1: really like Hunter Henry tonight, but again, really like the
Speaker 1: wide receivers. Keenan Allen has not scored a touchdown since
Speaker 1: Week three. I think that changes tonight. I think he
Speaker 1: gets in the end zone. Mike Williams has not scored
Speaker 1: a touchdown all season. He scored ten touchdowns last year
Speaker 1: on limited targets. This year he's actually playing all the
Speaker 1: time now and has not scored a touchdown. He has
Speaker 1: sixty nine plus yards gig in four of the last
Speaker 1: five games. So I like the props the over in
Speaker 1: receiving yards for both Keenan Allen and Mike Williams. Night
Speaker 1: Craig Mike Williams inside my top twenty four. Love him
Speaker 1: for fantasy. I think both of these guys are awesome
Speaker 1: to me. You talked before about these Melvin Gordon and
Speaker 1: how you like him tonight He's been much better as
Speaker 1: of late. What does it mean for Austin Neckler. I
Speaker 1: have also Neckler still as a low end r B two,
Speaker 1: just because six teams on a buy, it's gonna be
Speaker 1: hard to get away from him and Lovin Gordon played
Speaker 1: a season high scent of the snaps last week. He
Speaker 1: actually had season highs across the board greg twenty carries,
Speaker 1: eighty rushing yards, two rushing touchdowns. Austin Ekeler is still
Speaker 1: very good, sixteen touches. He had four receptions as well,
Speaker 1: but that wasn't a positive game script where they could
Speaker 1: afford to give both of those guys that many touches.
Speaker 1: We're talking about thirty six combined touches last week for
Speaker 1: these running backs. I think we have a little bit
Speaker 1: more of a back and forth affair tonight between these
Speaker 1: Chargers and the Raiders. The one reason why I still
Speaker 1: do like Austin Ekeler as a low end RB two
Speaker 1: is that the Raiders have struggled to stop receiving touchdowns
Speaker 1: this year to running backs. They've allowed four receiving touchdowns.
Speaker 1: This season, They've been a little bit stronger just against
Speaker 1: the run in general. Their eleventh and run defense TV away.
Speaker 1: But based on the way things are trending, Love and
Speaker 1: Gordon being used more. The carries her up, He's being
Speaker 1: used in the red zone. I like Melvin Gordon more
Speaker 1: than aust Nickeler, But if you own Ekeler with the
Speaker 1: six teams on a buy, you're likely still getting him
Speaker 1: in your lineup just because of all those players were missing.
Speaker 1: So the question I had was Austin ekel or Jalen Samuels,
Speaker 1: And I have to make a decision tonight. What do
Speaker 1: I do. I think James Connor is gonna play. I
Speaker 1: think based on the diagnosis we just got from Virginia,
Speaker 1: everything that we've seen so far, understand James Conner is limited.
Speaker 1: I think that he's going to play. Now hidden Samuels,
Speaker 1: maybe they're closer to a fifty fifty split, but I'd
Speaker 1: rather just take the points for sure. I mean, there's
Speaker 1: still a chance that James Conner plays and dominates the
Speaker 1: touches and then you're left with at Jalen Samuels, who
Speaker 1: you don't know how much work he's gonna get and
Speaker 1: it's a tough matchup going up against the Rams. They
Speaker 1: have been really good against running backs, so it's a
Speaker 1: close call. But I would go with Austin Ekeler, probably
Speaker 1: more so of the safer option, but just to guarantee
Speaker 1: that I get myself some points. Let me go to
Speaker 1: the other side. Let me go to the Oakland Raiders
Speaker 1: side of the football, and e y tonight, Tyroll Williams
Speaker 1: is in that revenge game for the Raiders, going up
Speaker 1: against his old team, the Chargers. Would you start Tyrell tonight? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I would, and I and I'm actually going to do that.
Speaker 1: And who of my league's actually Tyrolle Williams is benefiting
Speaker 1: from Antonio Brown leaving the Raiders. Obviously he was said
Speaker 1: to be the number two. Uh. This is a guy
Speaker 1: that when he's been given an opportunity, is kind of
Speaker 1: always showing up. You mean, there was a few down
Speaker 1: games last year, but he's looked pretty good this year
Speaker 1: as the number one wide receiver, which is I think
Speaker 1: a surprised to me and a surprise to most. But
Speaker 1: Tyrone Williams um is somewhere. I'm definitely starting tonight. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we were talking about this downstairs, Greg, and it's a
Speaker 1: revenge game for Tyro Williams going up against the Chargers,
Speaker 1: and we both kind of agreed that it would have surprised,
Speaker 1: if it surprise us, if John Gruden is actually going
Speaker 1: out of his way to make sure that Tyro Williams
Speaker 1: scores a touchdown against his former team. He has scored
Speaker 1: a touchdown in five of six games played. I think
Speaker 1: that he is a solid wide receiver three. Still a
Speaker 1: bit of a tougher matchup going up against Casey Hayward here,
Speaker 1: but I think John Gruden is going to try his
Speaker 1: best to get Tyroll Williams in the end zone here. Greg,
Speaker 1: and I think if you're really desperate again in a
Speaker 1: PPR league, if you need a body replacement, I think
Speaker 1: Hunter renfro is a viable option. Over the past two weeks,
Speaker 1: leads the Raiders in targets, share more targets than Darren Waller,
Speaker 1: more targets than Tyrrell Williams. He has been that PPR
Speaker 1: guy in the slot over the middle of the field
Speaker 1: for Derek Carr. Obviously you're getting Darren Waller in your lineup,
Speaker 1: and then it's just a great match up here for
Speaker 1: Josh Jacobs. Pay attention to the offensive lineman situation for
Speaker 1: the Raiders. Rodney Hudson and Trent Brown are questionable for tonight,
Speaker 1: but the Charges are allowing four point four six yards
Speaker 1: per carry to opposing running backs, the tenth most Fantasy points,
Speaker 1: and over his past four games, Josh Jacobs is averaging
Speaker 1: twenty two and a half carries per game and a
Speaker 1: hundred and eight point three rushing yards per game. The
Speaker 1: rookie has just been phenomenal. He is inside my top
Speaker 1: five running backs this week, Greig top five running match
Speaker 1: for Josh Jacobs, and it makes sense. He has been
Speaker 1: absolutely amazing. Anything else on this game, Frank, before we
Speaker 1: move on, just throw we We didn't mention Philip rivers name,
Speaker 1: but obviously if we like the wide receivers, if we
Speaker 1: like Hunter Henry, Philip Rivers is inside my top twelve
Speaker 1: this week. Oakland has a twenty two passing touchdowns this
Speaker 1: season that is the second most in the NFL. This
Speaker 1: is a game where you pretty much start everybody. Greg,
Speaker 1: if you can make sense to me before we move
Speaker 1: on to is Mike line. I want to tell you
Speaker 1: that if you want two risk free wages up to
Speaker 1: a thousand dollars. To go back and check out points
Speaker 1: bet dot com slash grid. You can open up a
Speaker 1: points bet sports waguring account into the promo code grid
Speaker 1: and you'll get two risk free bets up to two
Speaker 1: thousand bucks addition to the rigitional betting points bet. Also,
Speaker 1: all prestes own many conset where customers are rewarded by
Speaker 1: how much they win their bet. For example, who plant
Speaker 1: to night's NFL game? You but the charge, You're down
Speaker 1: at minus one there minus two now, then they beat
Speaker 1: the Rangers by seven points. You see seven times your
Speaker 1: stake's points bet dot Com slash grid and the promo

Speaker 1: to a Grand Hamiling problem calling hundred Gambler in New
Speaker 1: Jersey only when you went and over eligible restriction supply
Speaker 1: see website for details. You are Are you ready for
Speaker 1: your first ever edition? Is Mike line? I was born ready?
Speaker 1: All right? How it works. I will read a statement,
Speaker 1: You will let me know if it is true or
Speaker 1: I am lying, and we alternate based on answers. First First,
Speaker 1: if the answer is false, you will each have two
Speaker 1: chances each to try to guess the right answer. Okay, right.
Speaker 1: Are you guys ready, Yes, sir? All right, let's go
Speaker 1: fire it up. All right, give me some music, Danny,
Speaker 1: look at my friend. Let's do it. Uh, e y,
Speaker 1: you are going first. Here we go. He's before Beauty.
Speaker 1: He did that. Mike Evans leads the NFL in targets
Speaker 1: inside the red zone. Uh. False false, Frank. I saw
Speaker 1: a stat on end zone targets yesterday. But red zone
Speaker 1: I will say, I will say this is true. It
Speaker 1: is not true. Eric is correct, it is false. One nothing, Eric,
Speaker 1: e y. There are two players that have more d
Speaker 1: NFL I'm sorry, targets inside the red zone. Then, Mike Emmonds,
Speaker 1: can you name one. Let's go with Tyrrelle Williams. She's
Speaker 1: not Tyrrell Williams. Frank tied up. I'll say Cooper cup
Speaker 1: It is not Cooper Cup. E y. One more chance.
Speaker 1: You got a point here? Uh, Tyler Lockett is not
Speaker 1: Tyler Lockett. Frank. DK Metcalf is not Dk Metcalf. Question
Speaker 1: is over. We are looking for either Kenny Golladay or
Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey. Both have nine red zone targets on the year.
Speaker 1: SAT that I saw was that Mike Evans leads the
Speaker 1: NFL in end zone targets, which are different than red
Speaker 1: zone targets. We go to you, Frank's Austin Hooper leads
Speaker 1: all tight ends in fantasy points per game. That is
Speaker 1: correct and it's true, says Franky. I'm gonna go with
Speaker 1: true as well. You know with true and you were
Speaker 1: both correct. It is fact true. We go back to
Speaker 1: Eric Young for this one. With a minimum of twelve targets,
Speaker 1: Stefon Diggs leads the NFL in yards per target. True true,
Speaker 1: says Eric. So now I have to decide if I
Speaker 1: want to keep pace with e Y, because if I
Speaker 1: get this wrong, it's gonna be hard to run out
Speaker 1: of time of a three one deficit. I will say
Speaker 1: true as well, it is true. That is correct. Nice
Speaker 1: shot you, I who answered without hesitation. That was awesome question.
Speaker 1: Before he goes to Frank. Julian Edelman leads all wide
Speaker 1: receivers with six rushing attempts on the year. Leads all
Speaker 1: wide receivers rushing attempts with six. I will say that
Speaker 1: it's false, false, says Franky. False false false is correct?
Speaker 1: Is false? There are two players that have double the
Speaker 1: amount that you and Leman does. Frank knows one for sure.
Speaker 1: D Robert Woods is correct. Frank, you are tie at
Speaker 1: four e y. There is one more player? Can you
Speaker 1: get it? Cor Darryl Patterson? It is corn Daryl Patterson.
Speaker 1: That is correct. Oh, he's running back eligible. That is awesome.
Speaker 1: Question number five goes back to e Y Eric. Leonard
Speaker 1: Fournette leads all running backs in targets with thirty one
Speaker 1: true true, says e Y. Frank targets with thirty one
Speaker 1: targets On the air, I will say that is false.
Speaker 1: It is false. Ties it up at five e y.
Speaker 1: There are three players that have more targets and Leonard
Speaker 1: Fournette this season. Can you name one? Austin Ekeler is correct.
Speaker 1: He leads the NFL running backs and targets with sixty. Frank,
Speaker 1: there's two more. Christian McCaffrey. Christian caffrey is also correct.
Speaker 1: He has fifty two e y. There's one more player?
Speaker 1: Can you get him? Is it? Let's not? Is he
Speaker 1: heel Elliott? Frank, you have one more chance. You get
Speaker 1: this right. You will take the lead. If you do.
Speaker 1: You had that Lull had a lot last week. I'll
Speaker 1: say Levian Bell. It is not Levy on Bell The
Speaker 1: answer we were looking for was James White. James White

Speaker 1: doing on the show today, showing all right on the show,
Speaker 1: we got the leftovers coming out in just a few moments.
Speaker 1: You know who's still in the waiver wire? Who's worth
Speaker 1: going out there? Uh? And in getting in fantasy basketball,
Speaker 1: I think the super Mario Herizone. Yeah, that's where we
Speaker 1: are in fantasy waivers. Not northerly, Frank, I know, I
Speaker 1: yelled that, Um, we don't have anyone to drop. Greg.
Speaker 1: I might have been down with it, but our team
Speaker 1: is too stacked. All right. After that, we had inside
Speaker 1: injuries with Virginia Zakis. Virginia will join us today. We
Speaker 1: have coming up a Thursday night football preview Charges of Raiders.
Speaker 1: As Frank said, it's a good one. And then we're
Speaker 1: gonna play a very special edition of Is Mike Lying
Speaker 1: with a special guest host me. So it's the show
Speaker 1: is named is Mike Lying? And don't want to take
Speaker 1: Florio show away from him? The copyrighted he might have
Speaker 1: it's trademorrow, the whole deal. But I will fill in
Speaker 1: for Mike Florio and host is Mike Lying to wrap
Speaker 1: up at a shot I'm at earlier. I want to
Speaker 1: make sure we, you know, get it in. It's like questions, Okay,
Speaker 1: this might be one of the only things in life
Speaker 1: that I can actually beat Eric young att because we
Speaker 1: know I won't beat him at anything involving physicality or athleticism.
Speaker 1: So this is my only shot. So I will be
Speaker 1: trying my best. I also will not ey. Frank spent
Speaker 1: a good hour where the show's studying, and I was like,
Speaker 1: are you seriously study talking about I'm doing my rank?
Speaker 1: Are you really studying right now? I'm doing my rank?
Speaker 1: What are you talking about? I'm currently doing my rank.
Speaker 1: He's scared to be the right, scared of being beaten
Speaker 1: right here, Greg, look look at the rankings page. I'm
Speaker 1: updating my rankings. Greg has no idea what he's talking about.
Speaker 1: As usual, I know exactly what I'm talking about. Frank,
Speaker 1: I'm calling you right at He didn't you feel like that?
Speaker 1: That's all right? You know what. I gotta study to
Speaker 1: keep up, keep up with the y, to keep pace. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so that is what is happening on today's program. It
Speaker 1: should be a good one. Let's start out the calling
Speaker 1: news and notes before we get to the leftovers. The
Speaker 1: first A J. Green's eagle hurts, so he's like, you
Speaker 1: know what, I gotta play on Sunday. And We're like, yeah,
Speaker 1: we know, A J. Green. What they call that? What
Speaker 1: they call that? What they call that finnellitis? Yes, exactly,
Speaker 1: it's coming down with a serious case of it. But
Speaker 1: we've said this all along, right, He's going into a
Speaker 1: contract year. He wants to get paid. Why is he
Speaker 1: going to risk his hell for a team that is
Speaker 1: going nowhere? They are winless, and he has said in
Speaker 1: the past that he wants to remain a Bengal for life.
Speaker 1: A lot of people say things that they don't necessarily mean,
Speaker 1: So we'll see what happens money talks in the off season.
Speaker 1: I'm sure A J. Green would like to join a
Speaker 1: contending team as well. I don't think that the Cincinnati
Speaker 1: Bengals will be contending anytime soon. The timeline just doesn't
Speaker 1: match up here. You know again, I think at this
Speaker 1: point in his career, he wants to get paid, he
Speaker 1: wants to try to compete, and the Cincinnati Bengals are
Speaker 1: going through a rebuild, so I don't think it makes
Speaker 1: a lot of sense for him to remain with the
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals, but we shall see
