Marcus Grant, 3 00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:19,400 Speaker 1: joined by Michael left Florio and Lakwan Jones. We are 4 00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:22,520 Speaker 1: pretty much the halfway points of the NFL regular We 5 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:24,239 Speaker 1: passed the halfway point of the fantasy season. We're the 6 00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:25,440 Speaker 1: half way point of the regular season. 7 00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:27,840 Speaker 2: I know it feels weird like we were jurring for 8 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:29,840 Speaker 2: football to come back, and we are. We halfway through 9 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:30,120 Speaker 2: the thing. 10 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:32,080 Speaker 1: Like what I. 11 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:34,760 Speaker 3: Say it every year. Man, You blink your eyes and 12 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:37,600 Speaker 3: it is Halloween. Like it's just the way the NFL 13 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:38,240 Speaker 3: season goes. 14 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:40,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, so we are in spooky season. If you can't 15 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 1: tell by the decorations and the jar of candy corn. 16 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:48,240 Speaker 1: Candy corn is an insults both candy and corn. Please 17 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:50,880 Speaker 1: remember that you feel like you'd like candy corn. 18 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 2: Absolutely not. Oh that's disgusting, Lee. I'm egging the house 19 00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 2: and get candy corn. That was my rule back then. 20 00:00:58,400 --> 00:00:59,840 Speaker 1: It would have been totally on brand though for you 21 00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:04,360 Speaker 1: Tony Corny, No Jesse would have been Anyway. We're gonna 22 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 1: preview some of the compelling Week and nine matchups on 23 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 1: the show today, which running backs with tough matchups. Can 24 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,839 Speaker 1: you believe in? Which ones will ghost you here in Halloween? 25 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 1: Plus some either or options, spooky starts, and more little 26 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 1: trick or treat along the way. Here on this show, 27 00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: let's start, as we always do, with some fantasy headlines 28 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 1: and something we talked about earlier in the week but 29 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:29,919 Speaker 1: is now official. Tyler Schuck will be the Saints starting 30 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 1: quarterback when they come to Sofi Stadium to take on 31 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 1: the Rams in Week nine. Hey, so Florida, when you 32 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 1: look at this, you look at crisol Lave, Rashid Shahed, 33 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 1: you even Alvin Kamara. I guess with Shuck add quarterback, 34 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 1: which Saints do you want for the rest of the season? 35 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 1: Is it any of them? Ideally know? 36 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 3: But I do think Chris ol Lave remains someone that's 37 00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 3: in play just because of volume. Like last week, Shuck 38 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 3: came in and he did two things. He locked in 39 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 3: on Rashiit Shaheed and Christal Lavay, and he doesn't have 40 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 3: to be great for those guys to be good in 41 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 3: fantasy if he just continues to do that. 42 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 1: So take the Joe Flakau approach. Just nowhere twelve is 43 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 1: supposed to be on the field and put the ball 44 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 1: in that vicinity. 45 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 3: Alvin Kamara, I'm I'm done. I think the best is 46 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,919 Speaker 3: behind him. I think we're starting to see the quick 47 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 3: decline that happens for NFL careers. But if you have 48 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 3: a lave in Shaheed, it's look obviously a lava you're 49 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 3: not dropping. But even Shaheed like it's worth just waiting 50 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 3: to see if they get traded in the next week. 51 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 3: But even if not, I do think volume could keep 52 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 3: them afloat as wide receiver three's or flexes. 53 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: Sorry, by the way, I know, I know Spenser Rally, 54 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 1: I know how much to see you. 55 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 2: It's annoying the see I mean, how do you bench 56 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 2: a quarterback that's completing over seventy percent of his passes 57 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 2: in a game like the Jets train. I mean, it's 58 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 2: disgusting to see. Like Suk came in, there was no 59 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,639 Speaker 2: difference of the offense. I mean, the spark that Kellen 60 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,959 Speaker 2: Moore was looking for. Man, it wasn't there. This weekend. 61 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 2: You already know what's gonna happen. 62 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: Well, it's not gonna be great. 63 00:02:58,320 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 2: It's rams DST startup. 64 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, one hundred percent. Do that for sure. Down 65 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 1: in Carolina, Dave Canalis was talking about the Panthers running 66 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 1: back situation and how they're distributing the football, and he said, quote, 67 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 1: we cannot ignore Rico Dawdle with what he has done. Really, look, 68 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: since Cheba Hubbard got heard, Rico Dawdell stepped in. He's 69 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: been pretty good last week. Neither one of those guys 70 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 1: was particularly good this week. They got a really tough 71 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 1: matchup going against the Green Bay Packers. But Lakwan, if 72 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: you have Tuba Hubbard on your roster, what are you 73 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:29,799 Speaker 1: doing with him now? Scared? 74 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 2: I'm scared of definitely having him right now. But honestly, 75 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,079 Speaker 2: Dave Canal's going back to the lab and saying you 76 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 2: can't ignore Rico. You sure can't. 77 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 1: On tape. 78 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 2: The stats everything these last two games have been terrible 79 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 2: for Chuba Hubbard two point five yards per carry. When 80 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,839 Speaker 2: you're looking at the opportunities, how valuable are Chuba hubbard opportunities? 81 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 2: What is his actual impact on offense? But when you 82 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 2: look at Rico dwell that every opportunity he's had, he's 83 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 2: made a big splash five point three yards per carry, 84 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 2: and you look at the yards before contact, Rico Daddell's 85 00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 2: able to identify where the holes are at. I like 86 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 2: looking at this stat because it shows which running back 87 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 2: is operating behind the same old line and functioning at 88 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 2: a high level. You have Cheuba Hubber on the season 89 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 2: with fifty yards before contact. That is bottom of the table. 90 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 2: Look at ric o'daddle gets two hundred and thirty eight 91 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 2: yards before contact. That's more than Jamier Gibbs, more than 92 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:18,599 Speaker 2: Saquon Barkley, Mordan Derrick Henry and Devon a Chan When 93 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:22,160 Speaker 2: on a perk carry basis before contact, he's number one 94 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 2: in the league. The gap between the two is so large. 95 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 2: If Dave Canalis goes out there and give Chuba Hubber 96 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 2: a chance in the first half like he's been doing 97 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 2: these last two games, He's not trying to win the game. 98 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 2: You're trying to go out there and played the nice guy. 99 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 2: This ain't the first time this guy has lost his job. 100 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,480 Speaker 2: I've been saying this for weeks now. We saw him 101 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 2: lose as John de Deontay foreman, and then they put 102 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 2: that pressure on that boy when they drafted Jonathan Brooks. 103 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 2: So obviously they're okay of having a paid running back, 104 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 2: say as the backup, because we've seen Miles Sanders do 105 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 2: it for a couple seasons as well. 106 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, look, Cuba had a decent little run, 107 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: but it seems like it might be over at this point. 108 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 1: I wouldn't drop him because look, if something happens three Godowdell, 109 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:57,920 Speaker 1: he goes back to getting that full workload. 110 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,040 Speaker 2: Now again, you're not dropping Kareem Hunt. Like he it 111 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 2: comes like a handcuff at this point, like he becomes 112 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 2: one of those handcuffs that should be treated and utilized 113 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 2: as if a guy that's on your bench and the 114 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 2: guy that gets hurt, you could slide him into your flex. 115 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 2: But my expectations rest of the season not looking good 116 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 2: for him. 117 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know if I'm big on either of 118 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 1: the Panther's running backs this week though, against Green Bank 119 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 1: in Minnesota. Carson Wentz is going to have a shoulder 120 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 1: surgery on his non throwing shoulder, but he will miss 121 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 1: the remainder of the twenty twenty five season, so that 122 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: can eliminate all doubt that JJ McCarthy's going to come 123 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 1: back and be the starting quarterback when he's ready to go. 124 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:31,840 Speaker 1: But Flora, I'm going to ask you, can JJ McCarthy 125 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: elevate multiple pass catchers. I think we all still sort 126 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 1: of at least believe in Justin Jefferson, But you know, 127 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: Jordan Addison, TJ Hawkinson? Can you believe in those guys? Now? 128 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 3: I think it's possible that he could elevate Jefferson and Addison, 129 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 3: and I will admit I thought it would be Howkinson 130 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:48,160 Speaker 3: before the season. 131 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 1: It's just not happening for him. 132 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 3: The thing is, though, like we don't know what the 133 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 3: floor is like with JJ McCarthy, but we knew the 134 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 3: ceiling was very low with Carson Wentz, So JJ brings 135 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,040 Speaker 3: more upside than Carson wins had. I know, we've only 136 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,719 Speaker 3: seen him play eight quarters, and seven of them haven't 137 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,599 Speaker 3: really been that great. That's why, like for fantasy purposes, 138 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 3: I want no part of starting JJ until we see 139 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 3: any signs of life. And I think it's okay to 140 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 3: get away from the Viking secondary weapons until. 141 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: We see him elevate them. 142 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 3: But obviously Justin Jefferson is a mustard, and I've been 143 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 3: advocating for people like go out and trade for Justin 144 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 3: Jefferson now because I think his value is low because 145 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,919 Speaker 3: of a lack of touchdowns. But I'm expecting him to 146 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 3: go like touchdowns coming bunches. I wouldn't be surprised if 147 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 3: he had like six seven in the second half. So 148 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 3: I thought one of you guys were going to make 149 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:37,280 Speaker 3: the joke. Oh sorry, yeah, no, I'm happy you did it. 150 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 3: Those are like I don't know if like news people. 151 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: Came together and we're like, we need to kill this trend. 152 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 3: As quickly as possible, but they are succeeding, So we're 153 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 3: going to run this thing into the ground. 154 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 2: It's what everybody's been working on it at home. I've 155 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 2: been purposely setting up lailor for the sixth seven years. 156 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 2: She's so annoyed now when I do it, because it's 157 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 2: not cool. 158 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: It thanks everybody parties over now. Four teams on a 159 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,279 Speaker 1: buy this week. It's a good old fashioned four team 160 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,720 Speaker 1: bye week, like the Fantasy gods intended as the Browns, 161 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: the Jets, the Eagles, and the Bucks all have the 162 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 1: week off. But that does allow us to get to 163 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 1: our Thursday night football preview. The first touchdown odds for 164 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 1: this Thursday's game between the Baltimore Ravens and the Miami Dolphins. 165 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 1: Dereck Henry with the best odds, followed by Devon A. Chan. 166 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 1: The real surprise there. Then you got Zay Flowers, Lamar Jackson, 167 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 1: who we're all hoping is back for this week, and 168 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: then Jalen Wattle, who very quietly has been pretty good 169 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 1: over the last few weeks. Everything we've talked about with 170 00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: the Dolphins has been chaos and bad vibes, but Jayleen 171 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 1: Waddell actually playing okay. As we look at this game 172 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: a little bit deeper, of course, you can see it 173 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 1: on Prime Video eight fifteen pm Eastern on Thursday. Florio, 174 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,679 Speaker 1: if Lamar Jackson is back, we know you know starting Lamar, 175 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 1: You're starting Derrick Henry, probably starting Zay Flowers. Would you 176 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 1: start Mark Andrews against the Dolphins? 177 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 3: I would I have Mark Andrews as a start in 178 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 3: stardom Sidham, But understand I'm not starting him over any 179 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 3: tight day. But like with four teams on buy and 180 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 3: stuff like that, and tight end being what it is, 181 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 3: I do think he is in like streaming capability or 182 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:10,880 Speaker 3: something like that. He has not been good. I'm not 183 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 3: gonna try to argue that he's been putting up numbers 184 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 3: or anything like that, but one Lamar's back, and obviously 185 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 3: that means more scoring opportunities, more yard opportunities stuff like 186 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 3: that for the Ravens, and Andrews is still one of 187 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 3: the more trusted targets for Lamar. 188 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:27,240 Speaker 1: Plus it's a good matchup. 189 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 3: The Dolphins have allowed the six most yards, eleventh most 190 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,320 Speaker 3: fantasy points per game two tight ends, and on top 191 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 3: of all of that, both of these defenses are bad. 192 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:38,000 Speaker 3: So this has like potential score fests written all over it. 193 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 3: And if you're going a little bit deeper at tight end, 194 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 3: you're hoping for a touchdown, and I think Andrews has 195 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 3: a good chance of doing that. 196 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:44,839 Speaker 1: We mentioned the four teams on a buy. I mean, 197 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 1: like Harold Fan and David and Joku are off, Dallas 198 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 1: Goddard is off, Kate Odden if you're into that sort 199 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,440 Speaker 1: of thing. Mason Taylor and those guys are off this 200 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: week as well. On the other side, look on, I 201 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,080 Speaker 1: mentioned Jalen Waddle very quietly playing well over the last 202 00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 1: few weeks. Is it enough that you can feel good 203 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:00,719 Speaker 1: about starting him on Thursday Night? 204 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 2: I gotta say this, man, like the Dolphins still has 205 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 2: some fight in them. Like, I know I called them 206 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 2: a circus in the past, but like because they were 207 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 2: a circus, they were, But this is a good circus. 208 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 2: It's the Ringling Brothers, right, This isn't your circus that 209 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 2: pulls up in your mall parking line and set up 210 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 2: shot with the sketchy clowns and stuff. But like, they 211 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 2: had a great game against one of the best defenses 212 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 2: in the NFL, very tough against the wide receiver position, 213 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 2: and we saw flashes of maligue Washington, who's shown that 214 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 2: he could be dangerous in space. Sixty percent of this 215 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:31,960 Speaker 2: guy's targets last week were three plus yards away from 216 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 2: the nearest defender. So other guys were showing up in 217 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:37,679 Speaker 2: this offense, allowing Jalen Waddle to get loose, get open, 218 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,199 Speaker 2: take the attention off of him. And again they did 219 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 2: this against one of the toughest defenses at a wide 220 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 2: receiver position. I absolutely am going to be starting Jayleen 221 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,080 Speaker 2: Walla this week because the Ravens defense is still bad 222 00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 2: last time I checked it. 223 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 1: It has not really shown this a whole lot. I mean, 224 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 1: they had the one game out of the by against 225 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 1: the Bears. Kind of a frustrating day I think for 226 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 1: the Chicago offense more than anything. So Jalen Waddle in lineups, 227 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: let's lock it walking, soft seated lock it in. Looking 228 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 1: further into week nine, a handful of interesting games on 229 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: the slate, none bigger than the Chiefs heading to Buffalo 230 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:13,559 Speaker 1: to take on the Bills, and the afternoon slate not great. 231 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 1: It's not great, and they pretty much I think, set 232 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: everything up so that you have to watch watch game 233 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:19,680 Speaker 1: of it's gonna be most watch game of the week. 234 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 1: But on the Kansas City side, I know, I said 235 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:25,679 Speaker 1: on this show while a week ago, they're like, I 236 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:28,439 Speaker 1: don't know how I feel about the Kansas City pass catchers. 237 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 1: There's too many guys, too many miles to feed. I 238 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: would say after Monday night, Rashi Rice is easily the 239 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,319 Speaker 1: wide receiver one, the target number one there, But can 240 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 1: you trust any of those guys after Rashi Rice. 241 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,200 Speaker 3: My thing that I said on Fantasy Live today was 242 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,440 Speaker 3: Rashid Rice top five, top three wide receiver. The rest 243 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 3: of the way. I'm that high on him. The rest 244 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 3: of them, Like, I didn't quite have it in me 245 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 3: to put Travis Kelce as a sit this week just 246 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 3: because of how thin tight ends are, but I really 247 00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 3: considered it, and then Xavier Worthy to me, would be 248 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 3: the only the receiver that I even consider getting in 249 00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 3: the lineup. But he becomes a lot more boomer Bus 250 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 3: because since Rasheie Rice has been back, he is nineteen targets. 251 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 3: No one else has more than eleven. Worthy and Kelsey 252 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 3: are tied for second with eleven each. They're also really 253 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:16,680 Speaker 3: not airing the ball out at a high rate, at 254 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 3: least the last two weeks because now everything is kind 255 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:22,440 Speaker 3: of built for underneath with Rashid Rice, so Worthy to 256 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 3: me becomes like a boomer bust flex option. It always 257 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:27,560 Speaker 3: depends on your league, right, Like I have a league 258 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,559 Speaker 3: where I have Worthy, where you start two wide receivers 259 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 3: and a flex, and I'm sitting him in that league. 260 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 3: But then I have another league where it's three wide 261 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 3: receivers and two flexes, and I have no choice but 262 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:38,000 Speaker 3: to start Worthy there. So it kind of depends on 263 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 3: your league set up and your options. But he is 264 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 3: far from a mus start. 265 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, it's it's kind of boomer bus, as 266 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 1: you mentioned with everybody else. So you plug him in, 267 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 1: you cross your fingers, you sort of hope for the 268 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:51,679 Speaker 1: best there. Colts at the Steelers, look on, can you 269 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 1: start any Steelers running backs? Anybody you feel good about? There? 270 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:59,320 Speaker 2: Like gamebo is like unstartable with a healthy Jalen Warren 271 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 2: like to be honest and like Warren, to me, I 272 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 2: have low expectations in terms he still has flex appeal, 273 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 2: like in the low teens is where I kind of 274 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,839 Speaker 2: see his numbers living. But the Colts have actually had 275 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:12,560 Speaker 2: like these ram spurts of running backs like Tadj Spears 276 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 2: last week putting up big points, and like he is 277 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,079 Speaker 2: cut from that same flass, I can say where Jalen 278 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,160 Speaker 2: Warren can get involved in the passing game, Like my 279 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 2: expectations are just this backfield is going to be a 280 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,960 Speaker 2: one to two punch. Both of these guys make equal 281 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 2: impact on the offense when't given opportunities. But Jalen Warren, 282 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 2: to me, he's a guy that feels like a safe 283 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 2: floor type of guy, just based on the volume and 284 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,559 Speaker 2: snaps that he's getting. He's kind of like a Kalochhakir 285 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 2: honestly when you think about it, like a safe floor 286 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:38,959 Speaker 2: not a high ceiling type of guy. But I really 287 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 2: feel like if you have higher ceilings at the running 288 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 2: back position and other options, I probably lean that way 289 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 2: then rather gambling with you know, the fantasy streets boogeyman 290 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:47,199 Speaker 2: Arthur Smith. 291 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean just that this Pit'sburgh backfield is just 292 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:54,840 Speaker 1: so annoying. It's just wow. Yeah, it is interesting one 293 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 1: in the NFC north of the Vikings trying to get 294 00:12:57,600 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 1: right a little bit. Then they're going to Detroit, which 295 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 1: isn't really an easy place to go get right against 296 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 1: the Lions. There one thing that surprised me last week 297 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 1: on Thursday Night Florio was the lack of Jordan Mason, 298 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 1: Like how much they used Aaron Jones in his return. 299 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:13,719 Speaker 1: So now going against a good run defense, can you 300 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:17,440 Speaker 1: trust Jordan Mason at all? It's really no. I don't 301 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 1: think you can this week. 302 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 3: Because the other thing is it's not even like Aaron 303 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 3: Jones was running like crazy last week. He had five carries. 304 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:27,200 Speaker 3: That was one more than Jordan Mason did. Because we 305 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 3: know how this backfield operates when they're both out there, 306 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 3: Jordan Mason is your lead runner. Aaron Jones, though, will 307 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 3: get some carries and he is going to get a 308 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:39,320 Speaker 3: whole lot of passing downs. He had four targets last week. 309 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 3: Jordan Mason had just won, and that was a game 310 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 3: that they were trailing throughout. I wouldn't be surprised at 311 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 3: all if this is a game where they are trailing 312 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:51,200 Speaker 3: throughout and the lines are a tough run defense. So 313 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 3: if I was playing either of them, it would be 314 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 3: Aaron Jones. But it's kind of a situation where they're 315 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,160 Speaker 3: both eating off of each other's plate. It's gamescripts not 316 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 3: going to be favorable. I think I would try to 317 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 3: avoid if possible. 318 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm definitely thinking. I'm not I wouldn't play Jordan 319 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:07,959 Speaker 1: Mason this week. I'm not even sure how excited I'd 320 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:11,439 Speaker 1: be about Aaron Jones, Jenison, Jefferson or Buss. That's kind 321 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,320 Speaker 1: of it. That's pretty much it for the Viking, So 322 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 1: we'll take a quick break, come back. We got some 323 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 1: fantasy trick or treats and a few more Week and 324 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: nine previews. That's all coming up here on the NFL 325 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 1: Fantasy Football Show. It is Halloween, so figure we do 326 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 1: a little bit of trick or treat. I'm gonna name 327 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 1: a player, give you his matchup, and you guys tell 328 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 1: me whether that guy will be a trick as in 329 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 1: you probably want to avoid him or a treat, and 330 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 1: then you definitely want to start him. So lakwan, we 331 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 1: will begin with Travis et and the Jaguars off the 332 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 1: by heading to Las Vegas to take on the Raiders. 333 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 1: Is etn a trick or a treat? 334 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 2: He's a treat. I think he can bounce back Raiders. 335 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 1: Not that great. 336 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 2: I think he's had a hard schedule the last couple 337 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 2: of games against the run I think he's a trick. 338 00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 1: This week, all right, So let's see James Cook going 339 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 1: against the Kansas City Chiefs Floria. I think I know 340 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 1: what you're gonna say, but I'm gonna ask you a 341 00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 1: trick or treat. 342 00:14:57,960 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 3: One time we did this on Fantasy Live and I 343 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,920 Speaker 3: yield up was a trick and Patrick Claibun lost it 344 00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 3: for the rest of the. 345 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 1: Same He's a Treat's James Cook. 346 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 3: He's coming off of his career day. He scored a 347 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 3: touchdown and I think it's three of their last four 348 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:13,720 Speaker 3: games and multiple and two of those and the entire 349 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 3: offense right now is running through James Cook, even though 350 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 3: they refuse to throw him the ball. 351 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 1: I don't know why, but yeah, he's gonna go off. 352 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 1: Can't do all of the things you have to share. 353 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 1: LaQuan DK Metcalf going against the Indianapolis Colts. Trick or treat, treat? 354 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 2: I like DK Metcalf and Aaron Rodgers and him been connecting. 355 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 2: They've been getting together in the end zone, so I 356 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 2: actually they love him against the Colts this week, where 357 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 2: he remains to function on this offense. 358 00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:38,960 Speaker 1: I mean, the yardist numbers haven't really been great for DK, 359 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 1: but he's scored a lot of touchdowns, so that doesn't 360 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 1: help keep him afloat all. Right, Let's go to the 361 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:47,240 Speaker 1: Rams Dvante Adams at home against the New Orleans Saints, 362 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 1: who've been okay against wide receivers. Florio trick or treat 363 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 1: for Davante. I think he is a treat. 364 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 3: Look, Lakwan could speak on this, but like people talk 365 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 3: a lot about how him and Stafford aren't on the 366 00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 3: same page yet, and I'm like, what's it gonna you like. 367 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 1: When they are? 368 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 3: Because right now, I here, Vonce is a top twelve 369 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 3: wide receiver. He leads the league and end zone targets. 370 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 3: Just that opportunity alone, I think you started him each 371 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 3: and every week, all right? 372 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean if he have DeVante Adams, you're not 373 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,720 Speaker 1: not starting just the way you think. It's just what 374 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: kind of numbers you're gonna get from him? Okay, I'm 375 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 1: gonna ask you this look on George Kittle against the Giants. 376 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 1: Trick or treat. 377 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,800 Speaker 2: Trick, absolutely trick. You know it's on brand, But I'm 378 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 2: honestly believing this. There's gonna be more impact again with 379 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 2: him helping out the run game. This is gonna be 380 00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 2: a very run heavy game where CMC is going to 381 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 2: go off for another one hundred yards like we saw 382 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,680 Speaker 2: sa Quon Barkley kind of Stamford that he hates the Giants. 383 00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 2: I mean, you see how crazy he went. So I 384 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 2: do think at the end of the day, you got 385 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,520 Speaker 2: a good matchup for Christian McCaffrey, but not Kiddle. 386 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 1: I appreciate your level headed analysis of that. 387 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 2: He thought I was gonna go left. 388 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 1: I really did. I I was on brand. I was like, wait, 389 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 1: you're not a George Kidd and then I was like, 390 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 1: oh yeah, So all right, last one for you, Florio 391 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 1: Ronde Gadston going against the Tennessee Titans. Trick or treat. 392 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 3: He is going to be a treat this week because 393 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:07,439 Speaker 3: the Tennessee Titans they play zone at almost eighty percent 394 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 3: of the time. In the last month, Jadson leads the 395 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:14,359 Speaker 3: Chargers in yards against zone coverage and it's not even closed. 396 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:16,399 Speaker 3: So I do think this is a good week for 397 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 3: him as long as Lakwan reaches out to his dad 398 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 3: and tells him not to play him. 399 00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:24,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, please please drop them. Let's see Urphis, do not 400 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: start your son in fantasy this week for sure. Let's 401 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,160 Speaker 1: get back to our week and nine previews. We sort 402 00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:31,920 Speaker 1: of touched on this a little bit, the Panthers at 403 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:35,240 Speaker 1: the Packers. We talked about the Carolina running back situation, 404 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 1: but Lakwan, let's talk about the Packers wide receivers because 405 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 1: Watson is back the shart to spread the ball out more. 406 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:44,919 Speaker 1: Do you trust any one of those Packers wide outs. 407 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,000 Speaker 2: I think we've talked on this show many times how 408 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 2: we can trust Romeo Dobs like he gives you that 409 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 2: floor and snaps an opportunity. In three of his last 410 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,879 Speaker 2: four games, he's had eight plus targets. He's the first 411 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 2: read on seventy six percent of the play so he's 412 00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:59,879 Speaker 2: the guy say floor with him. But looking at Christian Watson, 413 00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 2: I don't know if I'm really moving towards trusting him 414 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:04,399 Speaker 2: as a star. He did show up last week with 415 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 2: double digit Fantasy points, but the real hitter here, the 416 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 2: guy that took a huge blow was Matthew Golden. I'm 417 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,639 Speaker 2: really worried about rostering him moving forward because if Christian 418 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 2: Watson comes in taking all these deep targets, because if 419 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 2: you look at Matthew Golden's aid dot last week, it 420 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 2: was less than a yard and a half. He doesn't 421 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,000 Speaker 2: have a game this season less than eight yards. So 422 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,440 Speaker 2: we're not going to get that high upside ceiling for 423 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 2: yards with Matthew Golden. So Watson and Golden are on 424 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,120 Speaker 2: watch for these next couple of weeks. So I don't 425 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 2: feel safe outside of starting Tucker Kraft or Romeo Dobbs, 426 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,199 Speaker 2: dealing with the Packers and Jacobs. 427 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,880 Speaker 1: Obviously, Matthew Golden has been really hard to figure out. Yeah, 428 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 1: you know sometimes he use him as a deep threat. 429 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:42,639 Speaker 1: You mentioned his low A dot last week. I just 430 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 1: I can't quite. 431 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:45,680 Speaker 3: Wrap my head around with him getting more excited for 432 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:49,399 Speaker 3: Christian Watson because Matthew Golden hasn't been a thing like 433 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 3: he gets that opportunity. 434 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 1: That was what Watson's job was before he got hurt. 435 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,720 Speaker 1: For sure, Broncos at the Texans Florida. What does R. J. 436 00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:58,119 Speaker 1: Harvey have for an Encore? 437 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:02,399 Speaker 3: Not three touchdowns on eight touchdoes at six before they 438 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,160 Speaker 3: gave him you know those garbage. 439 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:04,920 Speaker 1: Time last two carries. 440 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:08,480 Speaker 3: I will say I really like what I've seen out 441 00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 3: of r J. Harvey, like runs like this JK. 442 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:13,440 Speaker 1: Dobbins. He does not have that capability. 443 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:16,639 Speaker 3: Dobbins has the capability to turn those runs into like 444 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,400 Speaker 3: fifteen or twenty yard runs he gets chased down. 445 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 1: Though RJ. 446 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:23,360 Speaker 3: Harvey doesn't. He's also the better pass block or pass catcher. 447 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,880 Speaker 3: I think this offense would be at its best if 448 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 3: they utilized r J. Harvey more. But until they do, 449 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 3: until Sean Payton does, I don't think he's trusted like 450 00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 3: I want him on my roster. 451 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:35,879 Speaker 1: I don't want him in my lineup. It's not that 452 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 1: I don't trust RVE r J Harvey so that I 453 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: don't trust Sean Payton exactly. 454 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:41,160 Speaker 2: He hates fantashing, just he doesn't like him. He must 455 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 2: have went to the bathroom. 456 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:45,120 Speaker 1: R J. Harvey. That explosive run. I'm sure that Sean 457 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 1: Payton touches a sign that says nobody cares about your 458 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: fantasy team every single This is a good week to 459 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:53,160 Speaker 1: get away from most Broncos. Though most Broncos, probably most 460 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 1: Texans like a nine to six games, just stay away 461 00:19:56,359 --> 00:20:00,679 Speaker 1: from that one. Falcons at the Patriots. Mike Penix right 462 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:03,440 Speaker 1: now still day to day lakwanas he works his way back. 463 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:06,399 Speaker 1: So depending on what his situation is, there may or 464 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 1: may not be more Kirk Cousins in the offing. Can 465 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 1: you start any Falcons pass catchers if it's Kirko chains 466 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 1: this week, Well. 467 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,400 Speaker 2: Drake London's a lock if he's available, that's one hundred 468 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 2: percent Kyle Pitch start, etcetera, etcetera. But can we go 469 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:20,160 Speaker 2: back to last week, like what do we honestly expect 470 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:23,600 Speaker 2: from Kirko change three hundred and fourteen days removed from 471 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 2: being a starter without his number one wide receiver and 472 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:29,359 Speaker 2: also a defense that we knew were tough at the 473 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,400 Speaker 2: wide receiver position. So honestly, I think Michael Pennance would 474 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:35,160 Speaker 2: have had a similar game without Drake London last week. 475 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:36,160 Speaker 1: So going into this. 476 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 2: Week, there's a little wiggle room for Kirk Cousins to 477 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:40,440 Speaker 2: get on track, make that trade value, go off and 478 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 2: go elsewhere, maybe go back to Minnesota, But anyway, I 479 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:45,560 Speaker 2: think going against the Patriots, they're allowing seven point two 480 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 2: passing yards for attempt, which is twenty seventh in the NFL, 481 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 2: but when Christian Gonzales came back, there's still bottom the 482 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 2: table at twenty third in that stat So I think 483 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:56,120 Speaker 2: there's wiggle room for upside for Kirko Chains to get 484 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 2: back what he used to do back in Atlanta in 485 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 2: the early seasons and get these wide receivers on track. 486 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 1: Going back to Minnesota. You wonder the the Vikings reach 487 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 1: out and try to bring him home the backup JJ McCarthy. 488 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,679 Speaker 2: I mean, hey, I mean, why not bring Stefan Diggs there, 489 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 2: Let's make it all reunion. 490 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 1: Already brought back at them feeling, why not just get 491 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:21,440 Speaker 1: the whole gang back together there it is, It's time 492 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:24,400 Speaker 1: to see who will deliver. Presented by Uber Eat, we're 493 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 1: going with our Spooky Starts of the week. These would 494 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 1: be just sleepers, that's what we're calling this week. It's Halloween, 495 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 1: we're calling him Spooky Starts of the Week. So I 496 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:35,159 Speaker 1: guess it wouldn't be the Snorlas. I don't know if 497 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:37,679 Speaker 1: there's a ghost themed Pokemon that I'm not thinking of 498 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 1: right now, but who would that be? I know that's 499 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:46,160 Speaker 1: one of the best pokemon. It is, all right, who's 500 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 1: the who's your ging Gar this week. 501 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 2: Kesean BOUDI now, I know he's been one of the 502 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 2: most sketchiest starts all season long, and I know it's scary. 503 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:56,960 Speaker 2: Looking at his game log in terms of receptions per game, 504 00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,120 Speaker 2: it's one of the scariest things you'll see. And I've 505 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 2: seen Lebron and Shack act in movies, so I do 506 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 2: think Drake may is matchup proof. So this gives me 507 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:08,160 Speaker 2: the opportunity to slide in. Kaysehwan Boody in these last 508 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 2: three games, he's getting double digit Fantasy points. I know 509 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 2: the catches aren't there. He only has two games this 510 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 2: season with three over more than three catches. But honestly, 511 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 2: looking at that cliff last week with Josh Daniels breeding 512 00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 2: confidence saying that he looks at the details and execute 513 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 2: on every opportunity, Kaysehan Boody this week has opportunity to 514 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:26,120 Speaker 2: showing up and showing out again. 515 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:29,520 Speaker 1: All right's a Kaysehwan Boody there. Look, he's got touchdown upside, 516 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,440 Speaker 1: even if the target Sharre is not necessarily Floria. Who's 517 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 1: your spooky stars? 518 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:35,679 Speaker 3: I looked up Gengar and it says he's eighty nine pounds, 519 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:36,680 Speaker 3: although he's a ghost, So. 520 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 1: I don't know how that does that. 521 00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 3: Work at all minus Bam Knight, and I would I 522 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 3: would say he's not even a sleeper. 523 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:45,760 Speaker 1: I think he is just a straight up start this week. 524 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:49,480 Speaker 3: It might be a one week only thing, but he 525 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 3: He's gotten a lot of the work the last couple 526 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:55,200 Speaker 3: of weeks. He had eighteen opportunities. Last game they cut 527 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 3: Michael Carter and brought. 528 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 1: Him back to me. That shows that he is the 529 00:22:57,960 --> 00:22:58,879 Speaker 1: one there. 530 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 3: And then the cow Boys their top five in like 531 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 3: every category against running backs this year, so they struggle 532 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 3: against him in the past game on the grounds, keeping 533 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:09,920 Speaker 3: them out of the end zone. So it might only 534 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 3: be a one week thing with Trey Benson do back 535 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 3: next week, but I do think this is a week 536 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:16,440 Speaker 3: you could start Bam Night and I'm doing so in 537 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:17,679 Speaker 3: a number of leagues myself. 538 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:19,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, he really is just taking over. Michael Carter is 539 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 1: not really a thing down there in Arizona. He pulled 540 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:26,719 Speaker 1: a snip snap on him. Released. For me, my sleeper 541 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:28,720 Speaker 1: of the week is gonna be Burshard Smith there in 542 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 1: Kansas City, because if you are the grass in Buffalo, 543 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 1: you can breathe sigh of relief because Isaiah Pacheco may 544 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 1: not be around to go trample on you this week. 545 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 1: He is week to week with an MCL sprain, which 546 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,879 Speaker 1: means this could be a backfield of Kareem Hunt and 547 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 1: Bershard Smith. And as much as Andy Reid in this 548 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 1: offense keeps feeding Kareem Hunt, the explosiveness is just not there. 549 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 1: I know Smith has not been great running the football, 550 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 1: has not gotten a lot of opportunities, but even when 551 00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: he has is averaging about two and a half yards 552 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 1: per carrie. But he does get a lot of work 553 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:01,400 Speaker 1: in the passing game, and he gets more snaps, more opportunities. 554 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: That could mean more targets, and since we live in 555 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 1: a PPR world, could be a good way for him 556 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:08,919 Speaker 1: to pile up fantasy points in a fairly quick manner. 557 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 1: So I wouldn't advise us outside of deeper leagues, but 558 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 1: if you need a flex option, I like Bishard Smith 559 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:15,679 Speaker 1: against the Buffalo Bills coming out. 560 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:20,399 Speaker 3: Speaking of scary, Scary Terry has been ruled out for Sunday. 561 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:23,280 Speaker 1: That's no good. I don't like that at all. So 562 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 1: not a great week for the Commander's offense, potentially without 563 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:30,640 Speaker 1: their top wide receiver that was who will deliver presented 564 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:32,919 Speaker 1: by Uber Eats, where you can get the best deals 565 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,919 Speaker 1: on game day food all season long, the official on 566 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 1: demand delivery partner of the NFL Order. Now that is it. 567 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 1: We are done. We appreciate you hanging out with the 568 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:44,719 Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Football Show.
