What's going on then? Well, 0:01:12.240 --> 0:01:16.040 first of all, I'm trying to figure out these headphones again. Alright, alright, 0:01:16.040 --> 0:01:20.040 I'm getting something. I'm getting somewhere. All right. It's it's 0:01:20.040 --> 0:01:23.360 been a weird morning. Has it been for me? Is 0:01:23.400 --> 0:01:25.480 that I just didn't sleep? Well, it's just one of 0:01:25.480 --> 0:01:27.400 those days so far. I think I need to go 0:01:27.440 --> 0:01:30.520 see a doctor or something. I just have no energy 0:01:30.560 --> 0:01:32.240 all the time. You know, did you know that I 0:01:32.280 --> 0:01:36.280 have a hypothyroidism. Greg I take a thyroid pill every day, 0:01:36.280 --> 0:01:38.720 so maybe that's uh, maybe that's it, Maybe that's part 0:01:38.760 --> 0:01:40.399 of it. But I just I just feel tired all 0:01:40.400 --> 0:01:42.600 the time. So that is the first thing on my mind. Also, 0:01:42.680 --> 0:01:45.280 while I was walking up here, obviously we have game 0:01:45.360 --> 0:01:47.120 ma rency right outside the studio. He was down in 0:01:47.160 --> 0:01:51.040 the control room. I was thinking to myself, what do 0:01:51.040 --> 0:01:53.000 you think Game's reaction would be if, coming back from 0:01:53.000 --> 0:01:57.160 one of his breaks on Red Heat and Rage? We 0:01:57.240 --> 0:02:00.520 played the do Do do so you? So I've seen it. 0:02:00.640 --> 0:02:03.000 I've seen the reactions when you play music that he 0:02:03.040 --> 0:02:05.120 doesn't like. I didn't know he doesn't like that. Maybe 0:02:05.120 --> 0:02:07.280 he like it's it's not worth it? Man, he doesn't 0:02:07.280 --> 0:02:10.240 like third Well, we know he doesn't like Scott music, 0:02:10.280 --> 0:02:13.519 that's for sure. He doesn't know. Poor Michael Florio was 0:02:13.600 --> 0:02:16.640 the test subject for that one Imagine we played. Imagine 0:02:16.680 --> 0:02:18.560 we played games, man, you how that would go over? 0:02:19.840 --> 0:02:23.120 You'ld probably strangle somebody like in the Fandal Sports book 0:02:23.120 --> 0:02:28.360 while he's doing a show mentioned Michael Florio. Yeah, do 0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:31.359 you miss Michael Floria very very much? I missed him too, 0:02:32.200 --> 0:02:36.280 Did you d m him? Yesterday, you have like your 0:02:36.320 --> 0:02:38.280 group text where we could just talk it out. Greg Well, 0:02:38.280 --> 0:02:39.800 I felt that he needed to be personal, you know, 0:02:39.919 --> 0:02:42.600 one on one. I had to make sure that you're 0:02:42.600 --> 0:02:45.840 you're feeling right. So you know what's interesting because Florio 0:02:46.080 --> 0:02:50.280 for years would take our computers and send direct messages 0:02:50.280 --> 0:02:53.679 to people like Gabe, like Scott Angele the King, Robert LT, 0:02:54.000 --> 0:02:57.400 Robert latal that was a popular one, that's very popular 0:02:57.440 --> 0:03:01.280 on my Floria. And yesterday I walked out of the 0:03:01.360 --> 0:03:04.400 room um for something. I think it was the film 0:03:04.400 --> 0:03:07.560 the video for fandel I believe, and I look back, 0:03:07.600 --> 0:03:11.480 it's like, you know what, my computers open today, but 0:03:11.720 --> 0:03:16.040 Frank go this length and send a message out and 0:03:16.080 --> 0:03:18.440 I'm like, no, Frank and I had a really good 0:03:18.480 --> 0:03:20.880 relationship when it comes to this, We've been on the 0:03:20.919 --> 0:03:24.440 same team, the same side. He's not going to touch it. 0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:27.080 I did a double take and I walked out of 0:03:27.080 --> 0:03:29.519 the room and I came back to a direct message 0:03:29.520 --> 0:03:32.920 from my Florio telling me he misses me too, And 0:03:33.000 --> 0:03:36.000 I was like that bastard, And that's how I feel 0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:40.120 this morning. What bastard you me? Yes, do we have 0:03:40.120 --> 0:03:43.200 any interns in here yesterday or anything? Some interns, some 0:03:43.200 --> 0:03:46.040 some part time workers. I think you gotta talk to 0:03:46.080 --> 0:03:47.480 one of those guys. Greg. I think we gotta get 0:03:47.480 --> 0:03:50.280 down to this. It wasn't me. I believe it was you. 0:03:51.360 --> 0:03:55.360 What are you talking about? It was you. I don't 0:03:55.360 --> 0:03:57.040 know what you're talking about, Greig. I think we had 0:03:57.080 --> 0:04:00.560 some interns snooping around looking at your laps up. That's 0:04:00.560 --> 0:04:03.760 a that's a fireball offense. You don't go around messing 0:04:03.800 --> 0:04:07.880 with an executives laptop. Greg, So do you think I 0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:09.680 should fire all the insurance this? This This is what you're 0:04:09.680 --> 0:04:11.320 asking me to do. But I think we have to 0:04:11.400 --> 0:04:14.040 have some kind of accusation process. Do you want me 0:04:14.080 --> 0:04:16.800 to fire the interns because you believe one of them 0:04:16.800 --> 0:04:20.159 did this? I didn't. You have to fire the man 0:04:20.480 --> 0:04:22.160 you want me to fire. To get down to this, 0:04:22.400 --> 0:04:26.120 I will fire them. That's what you think. I didn't say, 0:04:26.120 --> 0:04:28.120 fire them. Say we have to figure out who did. 0:04:29.800 --> 0:04:31.440 I think I know who did it. Look, man, if 0:04:31.480 --> 0:04:33.200 you miss Floria, just let him know I did. I 0:04:33.240 --> 0:04:35.760 told them. We have a group of text we you know, 0:04:35.800 --> 0:04:39.239 we share a lot of personal things together. Alex Collins 0:04:39.279 --> 0:04:42.840 and Kenyan Drake. You have running back rankings, Man, that 0:04:43.080 --> 0:04:45.800 someone just asking the chat alright eight four four eight 0:04:45.800 --> 0:04:48.240 four three six eight seven nine. Um, we did to 0:04:48.279 --> 0:04:50.880 the running backs on the show running back rankings. We'll 0:04:50.880 --> 0:04:53.800 do that throughout the program. Today we have Virginia Zakis 0:04:53.800 --> 0:04:56.120 from Inside Injuries. She will join us code up in 0:04:56.200 --> 0:04:58.839 about thirteen minutes from now. A lot of injuries popped 0:04:58.920 --> 0:05:02.520 up late yesterday early this morning. Virginia has you covered 0:05:02.600 --> 0:05:05.760 up to the minute with the latest and greatest information 0:05:06.080 --> 0:05:08.880 when it comes to these players. Before we continue and 0:05:08.920 --> 0:05:10.080 we start with the running backs, I want to go 0:05:10.120 --> 0:05:13.200 to the youth Frank for today's stead of the day. Yeah. 0:05:13.240 --> 0:05:16.279 So this was interesting after looking into it because we 0:05:16.360 --> 0:05:19.760 all saw in primetime Monday Night football the Jets absolutely 0:05:19.880 --> 0:05:22.680 tear the Lions apart on the ground with their defense 0:05:22.880 --> 0:05:25.520 special teams specifically on the ground. I looked into this 0:05:25.640 --> 0:05:28.839 right so last year, after Heloda Nada went down for them, 0:05:29.680 --> 0:05:32.599 he played the first five weeks, so from weeks six on, 0:05:33.080 --> 0:05:36.320 the Lions defense allowed twelve rushing touchdowns to running backs 0:05:36.320 --> 0:05:40.160 over their final eleven games. No Haladi Nada this year 0:05:40.839 --> 0:05:43.480 with the with the Detroit Lions, he's now in Philadelphia. 0:05:43.960 --> 0:05:45.880 They allowed a hundred and seventy seven rushing yards and 0:05:45.880 --> 0:05:49.280 two touchdowns to the Jets in Week one. What do 0:05:49.360 --> 0:05:51.880 they face this week? It's the San Francisco forty Niners. 0:05:51.920 --> 0:05:55.000 Alfred Morris had three rushing attempts within the five yard 0:05:55.080 --> 0:05:57.960 line in Week one. He did fumble and lose one 0:05:58.000 --> 0:06:01.039 of those, but I think he's a pretty good bet 0:06:01.080 --> 0:06:04.640 to get in the ends on this week. Greig buying it, yep, 0:06:05.040 --> 0:06:07.920 I like. I like both forty Niners running backs as 0:06:07.920 --> 0:06:11.440 flex options this week. So in one of our leaves today, um, 0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:14.440 we had our first waiver bids since the draft, Alfred 0:06:14.480 --> 0:06:17.680 Morris was available. I was I was actually putting uh, 0:06:17.760 --> 0:06:21.080 I was putting bids in in that league yesterday when 0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:22.960 I was down in the control room right might have 0:06:23.040 --> 0:06:25.640 left that page open for a little bit. Did you 0:06:25.640 --> 0:06:27.800 go snooping around? You think I went to Do you you 0:06:27.960 --> 0:06:32.360 go looking at my bids because you just barely beat 0:06:32.400 --> 0:06:36.000 me out for Alfred Morris the first waiver run, No, 0:06:36.720 --> 0:06:38.200 I don't, but I know that it was very close 0:06:38.200 --> 0:06:40.760 to what you had. This was the first waiver run 0:06:40.760 --> 0:06:42.400 of the year. This was a league where I lost 0:06:42.520 --> 0:06:45.800 Levian Bell, Jerick McKinnon and Doug Baldwin. Three of my 0:06:45.839 --> 0:06:50.760 first four picks, and I don't have James Conner, so 0:06:50.839 --> 0:06:54.440 this seems terrible. And you outben me by Alfred Morris 0:06:54.480 --> 0:06:57.320 by a very slim margin. So you're out here accusing 0:06:57.320 --> 0:06:59.920 people of stuff. Greg. I think that there's a chain 0:07:00.320 --> 0:07:03.039 that you went snoop into my CBS account and looked 0:07:03.040 --> 0:07:04.800 at my bids. So number one, it sounds like you're 0:07:04.839 --> 0:07:08.520 accusing me of something. You accuse me first, He was like, 0:07:08.560 --> 0:07:10.760 I caught you number one, you didn't number two? Can 0:07:10.800 --> 0:07:14.600 I Can I be completely honest with you? Yes? So 0:07:14.760 --> 0:07:16.600 I woke up this morning and I saw a whole 0:07:16.640 --> 0:07:20.960 fight about fab bidding. I didn't go through whatever. I 0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:23.560 was like, oh man, I did it anyway or claims 0:07:23.600 --> 0:07:26.320 and I totally forgot. I was like, I forgot my 0:07:26.400 --> 0:07:29.520 bad is a bogus story shot. And he looked at 0:07:29.560 --> 0:07:30.920 my seem was like, oh cool, I have I got 0:07:31.000 --> 0:07:32.680 I think I have filiped door set. Maybe maybe that 0:07:32.720 --> 0:07:34.160 was not only I don't do any leads. Now you 0:07:34.160 --> 0:07:36.560 got filed. You think the filiped doors set right, And 0:07:36.600 --> 0:07:38.240 it was like, oh cool, I filped are set. And 0:07:38.280 --> 0:07:40.160 I was like, wait a minute, I also got Alfred 0:07:40.160 --> 0:07:43.080 Morris is awesome so I was really pompd about that. 0:07:43.400 --> 0:07:45.720 In then tell you the judies in the Fantas Football League. 0:07:46.160 --> 0:07:48.800 He's like, this, you might have mentioned it. You weren't listening, Okay, 0:07:48.960 --> 0:07:51.160 so did you actually tell me though? I don't know. 0:07:51.960 --> 0:07:53.480 So then how do you know that I wasn't listening? 0:07:53.480 --> 0:07:55.520 He said, He said, you might have. You might have. 0:07:55.560 --> 0:07:58.880 I don't know. Anyways, you using her first fantas footballer? 0:07:59.240 --> 0:08:01.400 Are you told me about the team name? Yes? Yes, 0:08:01.440 --> 0:08:04.880 all right, yeah, you tell me. So she picked this 0:08:04.920 --> 0:08:07.720 week up. I think she picked the Brandon Marshall. It's 0:08:07.720 --> 0:08:10.640 a great pick up we have. We have Brandon Marshall 0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:13.880 inside my top thirty six at wide receiver. Um, wonder 0:08:13.920 --> 0:08:19.240 I'll start him. Um. And then somebody dropped Matt Brita 0:08:19.440 --> 0:08:23.840 after last weekend and I was like, huh so her 0:08:23.920 --> 0:08:27.360 quarterback is Drew Brees. Her backup quarterbacks Matt Ryan, and 0:08:27.520 --> 0:08:29.360 never was like, listen, you're never gonna play Matt Ryan 0:08:29.400 --> 0:08:32.040 over Drew Brees ever. Ever, ever, you shouldn't play him anyway, 0:08:32.040 --> 0:08:34.200 So she put in acclaim which I think goes through 0:08:34.240 --> 0:08:37.480 tomorrow now. Um, to pick up Matt Brita and drop 0:08:37.480 --> 0:08:40.480 Matt Ryan, what do you think. Yeah, I love it, 0:08:40.800 --> 0:08:43.400 especially when you have Drew Brees. I cannot imagine a 0:08:43.440 --> 0:08:45.640 scenario outside of super Flex where you're starting Matt Ryan 0:08:45.760 --> 0:08:48.920 ever in a one quarterback league. Ever Ryan your quarterback 0:08:48.960 --> 0:08:51.560 rankings this week, because I know those are done probably 0:08:51.640 --> 0:08:55.319 close to you. Okay, you took out my rankings right now? 0:08:57.440 --> 0:08:59.520 Free article. By the way, it's really interesting. He said 0:08:59.520 --> 0:09:01.920 that I would never start him even in a super 0:09:01.920 --> 0:09:04.920 flex league. No, I said, outside of the outside. I'm sorry, 0:09:05.160 --> 0:09:06.439 so I would use him in a super flex. I 0:09:06.480 --> 0:09:10.720 haven't met eighteen in a one quarterback league. I'm not 0:09:11.080 --> 0:09:14.439 a mid level qbt D pretty much that I don't 0:09:14.480 --> 0:09:19.120 feel good about no matter what the matchup is. Okay, 0:09:19.520 --> 0:09:21.880 so especially with Drew Brees, you can drop alright, So 0:09:22.120 --> 0:09:24.520 hopefully Judy will get her her river claim. Hopefully it 0:09:24.559 --> 0:09:26.320 goes through. How do you feel about me having Alfred 0:09:26.320 --> 0:09:28.839 Morris and Met Breeda both rank inside of my top 0:09:28.880 --> 0:09:30.839 thirty this week? Listen, Alfred Morris was on the goal line. 0:09:30.840 --> 0:09:32.960 He didn't convert, obviously, he fumbled. That was a disaster, 0:09:33.240 --> 0:09:34.959 but it was a really tough magic for both Alfred 0:09:34.960 --> 0:09:36.680 Morris and Matt Breeda like that it could not have 0:09:36.760 --> 0:09:39.640 been worse yesterday for these guys. So with with that 0:09:39.720 --> 0:09:43.360 being said, like I'm buying I'm buying alf I'm buying 0:09:43.400 --> 0:09:46.160 Matt Breeda right now, I'm doing it and the one 0:09:46.240 --> 0:09:48.480 and the running back snaps. For what it's worth, Alfred 0:09:48.520 --> 0:09:50.840 Morris had thirty four met Breeda had thirty, so it 0:09:50.880 --> 0:09:52.920 was very close to a fifty split. I think once 0:09:52.960 --> 0:09:55.080 they get down near the gold line, that is going 0:09:55.120 --> 0:09:57.840 to be Alfred Morris's job. But I wouldn't be surprised 0:09:57.840 --> 0:09:59.839 based on what we saw in week one. And you 0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:02.760 don't want to just go chasing points, but this Detroit Lions, 0:10:02.800 --> 0:10:06.360 you don't want to go chasing waterfalls either. Good job, Craig, 0:10:06.880 --> 0:10:11.120 uh you see you went and messed me up. The 0:10:11.160 --> 0:10:13.080 Lions are going to allow a lot of big place 0:10:13.120 --> 0:10:14.800 to running backs this here, and I really do believe that. 0:10:14.840 --> 0:10:17.240 So I think there's a chance that both Alfred Morris 0:10:17.280 --> 0:10:19.760 can score from inside the red zone, inside the ten, 0:10:19.840 --> 0:10:22.080 whatever it might be, and Matt Breed has a chance 0:10:22.120 --> 0:10:23.560 to break off a long one here, and even if 0:10:23.559 --> 0:10:25.800 he doesn't, I think the yardage will be solid enough 0:10:25.800 --> 0:10:27.880 for him to be flex play at the running back 0:10:27.880 --> 0:10:30.079 position this week. So I like both forty Niners running 0:10:30.080 --> 0:10:32.920 backs against the Detroit Lions in San Francisco's home opener. 0:10:33.840 --> 0:10:36.600 Last week, obviously, the Niners played in the Minnesota Vikings, 0:10:36.679 --> 0:10:38.600 and this week the Vikings go degree May. We're gonna 0:10:38.600 --> 0:10:41.079 have old injury update on Aaron Rodgers and Davante Adams 0:10:41.120 --> 0:10:42.760 when we talks are a mess when we talked to 0:10:42.800 --> 0:10:45.800 Virginia coming up in about seven minutes from now. But 0:10:45.880 --> 0:10:47.880 I have to ask. And Aaron Rodgers doesn't play, And 0:10:47.920 --> 0:10:49.880 Mike McCarthy just came out this morning and he said, listen, 0:10:49.880 --> 0:10:52.679 this is no layup for Sunday. You know, the Vikings 0:10:52.720 --> 0:10:55.360 are a brutalizing defense. They're gonna go after Aaron Rodgers hard. 0:10:55.600 --> 0:10:59.199 Mike Zimmer is a very very good defensive coach. That 0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:03.520 Rodgers doesn't play. You can't start anybody, anybody, right, anybody literally, 0:11:03.559 --> 0:11:07.319 anybody does include Jamal Williams. He will not he will 0:11:07.360 --> 0:11:09.120 not be inside of my top thirty six at running back. 0:11:09.320 --> 0:11:11.400 He's barely inside of it now. Okay, So with Aaron 0:11:11.440 --> 0:11:14.959 rod you wouldn't start any of them. Davante Adams assuming 0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:16.959 he plays too, because we gotta get an injury update 0:11:17.000 --> 0:11:19.280 on that the indre update there at least not from 0:11:19.360 --> 0:11:21.160 Virginia before what I read this morning. He was back 0:11:21.160 --> 0:11:22.800 at practice today. He was limited, but he was back 0:11:22.800 --> 0:11:25.800 in practice. He's going to be the guy who's even 0:11:25.800 --> 0:11:28.760 if Aaron Rodgers doesn't play, he's a wide receiver three. 0:11:28.800 --> 0:11:30.160 You can't take him out. I don't think you can 0:11:30.200 --> 0:11:32.080 take him like well, if you have to, if you 0:11:32.080 --> 0:11:34.440 have three guys inside your top twenty four, like I 0:11:34.480 --> 0:11:36.760 love Agla this week, I love Kenny Stills this week. 0:11:37.160 --> 0:11:38.880 If you have those guys in your team and Aaron 0:11:38.960 --> 0:11:41.880 Rodgers doesn't play and DeShawn Kaiser as the quarterback, I 0:11:41.920 --> 0:11:44.840 will use those wide receivers over Davanta Adams this week. 0:11:45.800 --> 0:11:47.640 It's fair to say, you know, it's funny because it's 0:11:47.640 --> 0:11:49.320 not like he has Brett Hunley. He showed a report 0:11:49.320 --> 0:11:51.320 with Bret Hunley last year. Definitely, it's not Brett Hunley, 0:11:51.400 --> 0:11:54.080 it's Shawn Kaiser. You know, it's funny. We preach a 0:11:54.080 --> 0:11:56.760 lot where people preach about like starting. You never said 0:11:56.760 --> 0:12:00.160 a superstar right when he doesn't have his quarterback, you 0:12:00.200 --> 0:12:03.880 gotta consider it. Davante Adams is the number one one 0:12:03.960 --> 0:12:09.000 receiver for many fantasy teams. My multiple mind included he's 0:12:09.040 --> 0:12:12.319 a top ten wide receiver or was drafted as such. 0:12:12.640 --> 0:12:17.000 Easily you still would mention without Aaron Rodgers this weekend. Essentially, 0:12:17.080 --> 0:12:19.480 it depends on that depends on your options. But if 0:12:19.520 --> 0:12:22.160 Aaron Rodgers doesn't play going up against the Minnesota Vikings 0:12:22.400 --> 0:12:24.760 and Deshaan Kaiser is the quarterback, I mean, they took 0:12:24.800 --> 0:12:26.280 this game off the board right now. You can't even 0:12:26.280 --> 0:12:28.319 bet on it. So there's no lines, there's no over 0:12:28.440 --> 0:12:31.120 under because nobody knows what's gonna happen. If Aaron Rodgers 0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:33.240 doesn't play, this is a cakewalk for the Vikings. I 0:12:33.280 --> 0:12:35.080 don't care that they're in Green Bay. It doesn't matter 0:12:35.120 --> 0:12:37.880 to me. Fair enough and that and that's larshly green Bay. 0:12:37.880 --> 0:12:40.040 And we're gonna hear Virginia exactly what the injury used 0:12:40.040 --> 0:12:42.600 to Aaron Rodgers and DeVante Adams and if there's cost 0:12:42.679 --> 0:12:44.920 for concern, and I a happy thing there is, So 0:12:45.400 --> 0:12:48.400 you know, I'm excited to talk to Virginia about that. 0:12:48.920 --> 0:12:54.559 Um Leonard Fournett did not practice yesterday. I don't think 0:12:54.559 --> 0:12:55.920 there's much of a surprise. I think he kind of 0:12:55.920 --> 0:12:58.880 just needs to practice by Friday. But it's funny because 0:13:00.160 --> 0:13:01.760 I've missed, like t J yelled at on my waiver 0:13:01.840 --> 0:13:03.960 wire multiple times this week, I didn't need to realize 0:13:03.960 --> 0:13:07.280 he was out there that that that was the end 0:13:07.280 --> 0:13:10.800 of the statement. Sorry, Ay and b. I believe he 0:13:10.840 --> 0:13:13.439 went for twenty nine dollars in the Flex League last night, 0:13:13.600 --> 0:13:16.680 and that wasn't the Leonard four Nett owner. That was 0:13:16.760 --> 0:13:19.960 to one of the uh. That was to the Tozie brothers. 0:13:20.520 --> 0:13:23.120 And I think you follow them at Legion Report. They 0:13:23.200 --> 0:13:25.720 like you, Greg, kind of waited on running back because 0:13:25.720 --> 0:13:27.720 I remember when you were drafting back to back with 0:13:27.800 --> 0:13:30.040 them in that draft, you were worrying about them taking 0:13:30.040 --> 0:13:33.120 your running back targets that you liked. So they waited 0:13:33.160 --> 0:13:34.720 on running back. They had Kamara and then their RB 0:13:34.800 --> 0:13:37.640 two was not good, so they spent up big on uh. 0:13:37.679 --> 0:13:39.760 T J yelled in and also on Phil Lindsay. So 0:13:39.760 --> 0:13:42.320 they're taking the shots there, um, But they didn't own 0:13:42.320 --> 0:13:46.600 either Leonard four net or Royce Freeman, so that's worth mentioning. Again. 0:13:46.640 --> 0:13:48.840 It's a it's a good matchup on the ground this 0:13:48.880 --> 0:13:51.559 week for whoever plays, if it's four net or yelled in, 0:13:51.760 --> 0:13:53.959 going up against the Patriots who allowed four point nine 0:13:54.040 --> 0:13:56.400 yards per carry in week one and they allowed a 0:13:56.400 --> 0:13:58.880 touchdown to Alfred Blue, so they really did not They 0:13:58.920 --> 0:14:02.280 actually made Lamm look like he doesn't suck great. They did, 0:14:02.360 --> 0:14:04.720 and it was really interesting about that. Frank, Everyone's spending 0:14:04.760 --> 0:14:07.120 all this fab money on t J yelled in and 0:14:07.400 --> 0:14:08.719 were kind of leaked out. He was like, hey, we 0:14:08.760 --> 0:14:12.319 gotta get Corey Grant right, and he was like, well, 0:14:12.320 --> 0:14:14.720 he probably saw the the t J yelled in, y PC. 0:14:14.840 --> 0:14:16.920 I mean TITA yelled in. In In his career is typically 0:14:17.240 --> 0:14:19.560 not a great runner, like between the tackles, like he 0:14:19.600 --> 0:14:21.400 hasn't been in a fishing runner. He's a very good 0:14:21.400 --> 0:14:25.160 pass catcher. That's where TJ yelled in excels um. But yeah, 0:14:25.280 --> 0:14:28.240 if Leonard Fournett doesn't play, I still think we're seeing 0:14:28.320 --> 0:14:30.680 you know, fifteen eighteen touches for t J Yelden. That's 0:14:30.720 --> 0:14:34.520 probably you know, twelve at least twelve rushing attempts in 0:14:34.560 --> 0:14:38.200 six receptions, and it maybe Corey Grant sees eight something 0:14:38.240 --> 0:14:39.960 like that. I think that's how the breakdow would be. 0:14:40.360 --> 0:14:44.720 Leonard for Nett obviously without question, constantly dealing with those 0:14:44.800 --> 0:14:48.200 lower leg injuries or just leg injuries, hamstrings and whatnot, 0:14:48.520 --> 0:14:50.160 and he can't get away from it. And it reminds 0:14:50.160 --> 0:14:52.280 me of another guy that turned up lane late last 0:14:52.360 --> 0:14:54.200 night or last one. That's Corey Davis, who battled the 0:14:54.240 --> 0:14:57.040 hamstring injury all last year. Yesterday he was limited in 0:14:57.040 --> 0:15:00.320 practice with a hamstring injury. Um and fantasone is freak 0:15:00.360 --> 0:15:04.000 cat seeing Oh my god, Corey Davis hamstring, hamstring, hamstring. 0:15:04.120 --> 0:15:06.120 Now we didn't sit out practice, he was limited, So 0:15:06.120 --> 0:15:09.000 maybe there's some costs for optimism there. I think you 0:15:09.040 --> 0:15:11.240 should be worried about this, And I know, can we 0:15:11.320 --> 0:15:13.320 dub this like an overreaction week? I think we could 0:15:13.360 --> 0:15:15.920 write like after week one. There are a few guys 0:15:15.960 --> 0:15:18.360 that I'm looking at right now after week one and 0:15:18.400 --> 0:15:21.800 it's irrational. It's irrational that I'm looking at and saying, 0:15:22.520 --> 0:15:23.920 you know, this might just be a wash here for 0:15:23.960 --> 0:15:26.360 this player and it's week one, like we're heading into 0:15:26.400 --> 0:15:28.840 week two. There are a few guys like Leonard Fournette 0:15:28.880 --> 0:15:31.600 is one of those guys where I feel, especially with 0:15:31.680 --> 0:15:34.880 a soft tissue injury like a hamstring and given the 0:15:34.880 --> 0:15:36.760 foot and ankle injuries that he's had in the past, 0:15:36.800 --> 0:15:39.480 where I'm just like, this might just be a thing. 0:15:39.520 --> 0:15:41.760 The entire season for Leonard Fournette. I feel the same 0:15:41.760 --> 0:15:44.600 way about Corey Davis. He battled the hamstring injuries last year. 0:15:44.680 --> 0:15:46.800 And on top of that, we already didn't feel good 0:15:46.800 --> 0:15:48.560 about the Titans offense based on what we saw in 0:15:48.600 --> 0:15:52.440 Week one, Greg, Marcus Mariota looked brutal. He's banged up 0:15:52.480 --> 0:15:54.960 as well. They have no Delaney Walker. The running back 0:15:55.040 --> 0:15:58.920 situation is a mess unless you own Dion Lewis. I mean, 0:15:58.920 --> 0:16:01.280 we still don't know how that's gonna breakdown. And then 0:16:01.280 --> 0:16:03.000 another player who I look at all my teams and 0:16:03.000 --> 0:16:05.520 I'm like, this is gonna be a mess all year long, 0:16:05.760 --> 0:16:09.920 Sammy Watkins, and I feel absolutely terrible. Somebody today asked 0:16:09.920 --> 0:16:12.920 me on Twitter, Sammy Watkins is a free agent in 0:16:12.920 --> 0:16:15.360 my league. I picked up Brandon Marshall. Do I drop 0:16:15.360 --> 0:16:18.280 Brandon Marshalls to pick up Sammy Watkins? I said no. 0:16:19.160 --> 0:16:21.800 I said no, there's a guy who were drafting in 0:16:21.840 --> 0:16:25.200 the six seventh round. Greg, it's been one week. We 0:16:25.280 --> 0:16:30.160 have nothing. We have no optimism to gain with Tammy 0:16:30.200 --> 0:16:31.840 Watkins right now. Based on the way he was using 0:16:31.840 --> 0:16:34.440 the preseason, based on the way he used in Week one, 0:16:35.200 --> 0:16:37.000 he was on the field much more than he was 0:16:37.040 --> 0:16:40.160 with Tyreek Hill, and he was targeted half the times. 0:16:40.200 --> 0:16:42.560 He had three receptions for twenty yards in a game 0:16:42.560 --> 0:16:45.320 where they put up thirty eight points. I feel terrible 0:16:45.320 --> 0:16:48.240 about Sammy Watkins right now. I just had to get 0:16:48.240 --> 0:16:51.600 all that off my chest and there you go, Sammy Watkins. 0:16:51.600 --> 0:16:54.680 Are we overreacting? I don't really think so. I've never 0:16:54.720 --> 0:16:57.280 liked Sandy Watkins. It's just the first time I've owned him. 0:16:58.040 --> 0:17:00.880 Doesn't feel great, not fun. Now, speaking of Sammy Watkins, 0:17:00.880 --> 0:17:02.920 guy that's always injured, we have a lot of injuries 0:17:02.960 --> 0:17:04.520 to get to and that's why when we come back, 0:17:04.520 --> 0:17:07.440 we're joined by Vitus jinia Zakas of Inside Injuries.

Edit, our friend 0:18:39.200 --> 0:18:42.439 Virginia Zak is from inside Injuries. Virginia, how are you 0:18:43.440 --> 0:18:46.080 doing well? Staying very busy with all these injuries. You 0:18:46.160 --> 0:18:49.320 stay in dry is most important. Yeah. I think I 0:18:49.359 --> 0:18:51.199 think we actually are going to avoid most of the 0:18:51.200 --> 0:18:55.320 bad weather here. So awesome that's that. That's fantastic to hear. UM. 0:18:55.480 --> 0:18:57.760 Let me start in Green Bay's it's one of the 0:18:57.760 --> 0:19:00.639 bigger stories of the week, the injury to Aaron Rodgers. 0:19:00.640 --> 0:19:02.880 It calls him to be carded off. I immediately thought 0:19:02.880 --> 0:19:05.440 it was a broken leg for him. Um. Other people 0:19:05.440 --> 0:19:07.159 speculated it to an a c L. Of course, he 0:19:07.240 --> 0:19:09.800 came back to play in the second half of Sunday 0:19:09.880 --> 0:19:12.480 Night Football, and if you read like Pro Football Doctor 0:19:12.560 --> 0:19:15.520 on Twitter, everyone kind of believes a sprained m c 0:19:15.800 --> 0:19:18.919 L for Aaron Rodgers. Mike McCarthy says it is no 0:19:19.160 --> 0:19:22.160 cake walk that he's going to play on Sunday. Are 0:19:22.200 --> 0:19:24.600 you hearing that it's a sprained m c L as well, 0:19:25.040 --> 0:19:27.360 And if so, what's the timetable should we expect Aaron 0:19:27.440 --> 0:19:31.120 Rodgers to be out there on Sunday? Yes, so we're 0:19:31.119 --> 0:19:34.040 showing it's most likely an mc L sprain, possibly a 0:19:34.040 --> 0:19:37.080 meniscus injury, but based on the mechanism of how his 0:19:37.119 --> 0:19:40.800 knee moved, it does look like an m c L injury. UM. 0:19:40.840 --> 0:19:43.360 If it's a mild sprain, it is realistic for him 0:19:43.359 --> 0:19:45.760 to play this weekend, but his mobility is going to 0:19:45.800 --> 0:19:48.480 be affected. UM, I'm sure you also noticed that he 0:19:48.520 --> 0:19:51.359 wasn't able to really step into those long throws. Of course, 0:19:51.359 --> 0:19:54.480
