Of course we're 19 00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 2: doing this after the Thursday night game has happened. I 20 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 2: know that you had justin fields this week, right, you 21 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:01,960 Speaker 2: were justin fields guy? This week? 22 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,840 Speaker 3: I said to start justin fields this week. Some other 23 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 3: quarterbacks Anthony Richardson, Kirk Cousins, c J. Stroud, who's been 24 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,200 Speaker 3: playing out of his mind right now. And I think 25 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 3: Jordan Love is in play, although I know you don't 26 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 3: love him. This week, Yes, some sits Trevor Lawrence against 27 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 3: the Bills, Joe Burrow because he just doesn't look like 28 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 3: Joe Burrow right now. Russell Wilson and Brock Purdy in 29 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 3: a tough matchup against the Cowboys. 30 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,399 Speaker 2: Oh so Danger Russ who's been playing well, is on 31 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 2: the sit list. Let's talk about some guys on the 32 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,960 Speaker 2: start list. Kirk Cousins going against the Kansas City Chiefs 33 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 2: last week, Cousins had his worst game of the season, 34 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 2: just one hundred and thirty nine passing yards, which you 35 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 2: think he bounces back against KSE. 36 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:42,760 Speaker 3: It's so ironic that he had his worst game of 37 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 3: the season and it's the only game that the Vikings 38 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 3: have won so far this season. 39 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 2: But that is the whole thing. 40 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 3: They're playing the Kansas City Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes, They're 41 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 3: gonna have to put up points. They're likely going to 42 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 3: be playing ketchup, and that is when Kirk Cousins is 43 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 3: at his best. For fantasy purposes. This is his first 44 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 3: game last week with fewer than three hundred and forty 45 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 3: passing yards. The Chiefs their secondary is tough, but we 46 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 3: know that this Vikings defense could put up points. They 47 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 3: did it against the Eagles. I'm expecting a game similar 48 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:13,399 Speaker 3: to that in Week two, where the other team goes 49 00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 3: off against the Vikings defense, and then Kirk Cousins is like, well, 50 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 3: I guess I gotta try to match that. 51 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 2: This game has the makings of a score fest if 52 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 2: both these offenses do what we think they are capable 53 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 2: of doing. Also, you Patrick Mahomes on the other side 54 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 2: coming off of one of his worst games in a 55 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 2: long time too, So we'll see if those quarterbacks can 56 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 2: get back on the good foot. Do we see Taylor 57 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 2: Swift there? Yes? 58 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: Or no? 59 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 2: I don't care. I'm sure that my mentions will be 60 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 2: I don't anyway. CJ. Stroud is off to an amazing start. 61 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 2: He has set in NFL record the first player in 62 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 2: NFL history to go for twelve hundred plus yards without 63 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 2: an interception over the first four games of his career. 64 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 2: I know we're parsing it down. I don't care. It's 65 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 2: still pretty special. He's got the Falcons this week, so 66 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 2: we keep the CJ. Stroud train rolling. Huh Yeah. 67 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 3: I am rolling with Stroud and last week I had 68 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 3: him as they sit against the Steelers. I will take 69 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 3: the l there, but I said that it was a 70 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 3: big test for him, and he passed with flying colors, 71 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:12,239 Speaker 3: going for three hundred and six and two touchdowns. He 72 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 3: is now top twenty Fantasy points in three straight games, 73 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,359 Speaker 3: with multiple passing touchdowns in each of those. I know 74 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 3: that the Falcons on paper look like a tough matchup, 75 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,119 Speaker 3: but they bring pressure at a below average rate. 76 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 2: I think that is big for CJ. 77 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:27,799 Speaker 3: Stroud. Not only do I want to start Stroud, I 78 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:29,639 Speaker 3: think you want to start a pass catchers in this one. 79 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,799 Speaker 2: As well well. Absolutely. I mean I've been telling people, 80 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 2: if you've got Tank Dell or Nico Collins, you are 81 00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 2: starting them understanding that there will be ups and downs. 82 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 2: But the way the Texans are throwing the football and 83 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 2: the way those guys are playing, I don't know how 84 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 2: you sit either Collins or Dell at this point on 85 00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 2: the other side, and I never thought we would be 86 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 2: here if you had told me back in July that 87 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 2: we'd be saying this in Week five, I would have said, 88 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 2: you're crazy, But Joe Burrow is a sit against the Cardinals. 89 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 2: Huh yeah. 90 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 3: Every week on Sunday, Joe Burrow managers are like, that's it, 91 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 3: I'm not playing him anymore. And then on like Wednesday, 92 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 3: I get text from people like, Hey, have you seen 93 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 3: who Joe Burrow's facing yet this week? Maybe he could 94 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 3: bounce back against the Cardinals, and I just need to 95 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 3: see it first. Last week was a good matchup on 96 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 3: paper against the Titans. He gave you less than five 97 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:22,359 Speaker 3: fantasy points. He is averaging seven point nine fantasy points 98 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 3: per game on the season and has more games without 99 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 3: a touchdown pass than he does touchdown passes on the season. 100 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 3: Right now, you keep him on your bench in my opinion, 101 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,559 Speaker 3: until he shows us that he looks like Joe Burrow. 102 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,840 Speaker 2: Here are the quarterbacks that have more fantasy points than 103 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 2: Joe Burrow. Derek Carr, Jimmy Garoppolo, Ryan Tannehill. Can you 104 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 2: pick it, Zach Wilson, Desmond Ritter. I mean I can 105 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,280 Speaker 2: keep going. Here's all of them, so pretty much all 106 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 2: of them. So all of the quarterbacks have more fantasy 107 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,839 Speaker 2: points than Joe Burrow. That is where we are here 108 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 2: at the start of week five, so we talked about 109 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 2: the guys who are pitching out the side, about the 110 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 2: guys who are gonna be catching it. Look at the 111 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 2: wide receiver starts sits four week five? Who do you have? 112 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 3: I said I would be playing CJ. Strouds pass catchers. 113 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,720 Speaker 3: That's why Nico Collins is a start for me. Brandon 114 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,720 Speaker 3: Ayuk the wide receiver one for the San Francisco forty 115 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 3: nine ers. Christian Watson is back for the Packers, so 116 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 3: he should be back for your fantasy lineups. And then 117 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 3: Adam Thielen. He's the replacement option because the fourth one 118 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 3: was originally Dj Moore. Hopefully you did start Dj Moore 119 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 3: this week. Some sits Drake London because I want nothing 120 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 3: to do with the Falcons passing attack ever, Courtland Sutton 121 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:33,279 Speaker 3: because Jets. Jordan Addison in a tough matchup on paper 122 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,359 Speaker 3: against the Chiefs, and then Tyler Boyd. The only one 123 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 3: I'm nervous about the right there is is Jordan Addison. 124 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 2: Addison I think well, I think he bounces back from 125 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 2: last week when he had one target in zero catches, 126 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 2: Like I feel confident that he's gonna do better. Than 127 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,280 Speaker 2: that in Week five. But how good he's gonna do well, 128 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 2: I think that is up for debate. Let's talk about 129 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 2: Christian Watson because he came back last week, did have 130 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 2: a touchdown, didn't see a ton of snaps as the 131 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 2: Packers were working him back in. But you think he 132 00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 2: goes big against the Raiders this week? Yeah. 133 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 3: I think on Monday Night football, where everyone is gonna 134 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,359 Speaker 3: have the eyes on their eyes on DeVante Adams on 135 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,840 Speaker 3: the other side and talking about how he's still amazing 136 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 3: without the Packers, I think Christian Watson is gonna have 137 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 3: a little something to prove, like, hey, the Packers are 138 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,600 Speaker 3: doing alright with what they have here. We saw last week, 139 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 3: like you said, on a snap count, he still scored 140 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 3: a touchdown in the red zone. And I think now 141 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 3: with the mini buy, we could see him play close to, 142 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 3: if not a full allotment of snaps. And it only 143 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,039 Speaker 3: takes a play or two for Christian Watson to have 144 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 3: a big Fantasy day. 145 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 2: That's the thing. He's so good after the catch that 146 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 2: you just get the ball in his hands and who 147 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 2: knows is gonna happen from there. Plus, if they decide 148 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 2: to stretch the field, he's the guy who can take 149 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 2: the top off the defense. Adam feeling just keeps thumbing 150 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 2: his nose at regression like we're like, oh, I had a feeling, 151 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,720 Speaker 2: he's washed, he's old, and he's just like he keeps 152 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 2: going and doing it. And the Lions maybe not the 153 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 2: doormats they once were, but you still like feeling this 154 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 2: week against Detroit, Yeah, I do it. 155 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 3: It is wild to say that Adam Feelen has been 156 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 3: quarterback proof, but that's what he has been. In the 157 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,039 Speaker 3: first month of the seas he has at least eight 158 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,280 Speaker 3: targets in three straight games, seven catches and over fifteen 159 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,360 Speaker 3: fantasy points in each of those games, and in that 160 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 3: span he is averaging over twenty two fantasy points per game. 161 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 3: As good as the lines defenses, they are amazing at 162 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 3: stopping the run. 163 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 2: So I think one the. 164 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 3: Panthers don't have much of a run game they could 165 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 3: rely on, but even more so this week, I think 166 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:21,840 Speaker 3: they're gonna have to throw the ball more than normal. 167 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 2: Adam Thielen is a top twelve Fantasy wide receiver through 168 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 2: the first four plus weeks of the season. Didn't think 169 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 2: we would be talking about that. Brandon Aiyuk, you mentioned it. 170 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 2: I've I've been on this train for a while, but 171 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 2: I'm glad to welcome everybody aboard. Brandon ayuk is the 172 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 2: wide receiver one for the San Francisco forty nine ers, 173 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 2: and you have no fear against starting him against the Cowboys. No, 174 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 2: and kudos to you. 175 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 3: You've been driving the ayuk Ki train, not just this season, 176 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 3: but for years now, and exactly what you said. He 177 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 3: is the wide receiver one for the San Francisco forty 178 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 3: nine ers. He leads this team in targets, in receiving yards, 179 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 3: in receiving touchdowns, and end zone targets. And that is 180 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 3: despite missing a game already this season. He is averaging 181 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 3: almost sixteen air yards per target, so he is always 182 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 3: a threat to put up high yardage catch a long touchdown, 183 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 3: even in a tough matchup against the Cowboys. I think 184 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 3: he is a mustart wide receiver and I'm feeling great 185 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 3: about him. Not so much Debo or George Kittle. 186 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 2: Right, Deebo, I'm a little worried about George Kittle. You know, 187 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 2: I know it's hard to avoid him, but I would 188 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 2: if I could, just because I think he's gonna spend 189 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:27,880 Speaker 2: a lot of time blocking and not as much time 190 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 2: route running and getting involved in the passing game for 191 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:34,600 Speaker 2: San Francisco. Speaking of George Kittle, we're gonna talk about 192 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 2: some tight ends coming up, and it's signed for a 193 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 2: vibe check. We're gonna tell you how we're feeling about 194 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 2: some of your biggest fantasy questions. That and more coming 195 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 2: up here on the Stardom Setup Show. Take a look 196 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 2: at the Stardom situm tight Ends four Week five Florio 197 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 2: take us through it. 198 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 3: Darren Waller in a potentially bounced back spot. I still 199 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 3: like Tyler Higbee even with Cooper cupback as a there, 200 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:04,080 Speaker 3: Dallas Goddard giving him another shot, and Jake Ferguson even 201 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 3: in a tough matchup some six, Kyle Pitts because Falcons, 202 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,599 Speaker 3: Hunter Henry in a tough matchup, chig Aconco, and the 203 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,439 Speaker 3: fourth one there was Cole Comet, my bad. 204 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 2: Cole Comett is very quietly having a really nice year. 205 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 2: And Kyle Pitts. I don't know, man, I think that's 206 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,560 Speaker 2: just what it is. John new Smith is the tight 207 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 2: end one in Atlanta. None of us like it, but 208 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 2: we just got to accept the fact. At this point, 209 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,440 Speaker 2: let's talk about some potentially happier things because Darren Waller 210 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 2: has been a disappointment, but the Giants are saying they 211 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 2: understand they've got to get him more involved. The Actually 212 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 2: the headline I saw was Daniel Jones hopes to get 213 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 2: Darren Waller Moore involved, And I'm like, hope is not 214 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,080 Speaker 2: a strategy. I'm hoping they have a strategy because you 215 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 2: have him as a start. 216 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,480 Speaker 3: I am hoping that their strategy is to get him 217 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 3: the ball more. I'm hoping that Daniel Jones is even 218 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,680 Speaker 3: capable of getting him the ball more. But I'm hoping 219 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 3: for a squeaky wheel game. A lot of the times 220 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 3: we hear stuff like this and then the game plan 221 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 3: is emphasized, hey, especially in those first fifteen plays, let's 222 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 3: try to get the ball going to our best playmaker, 223 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,959 Speaker 3: especially since last week on the first drive, Daniel Bellinger 224 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 3: got hurt was out for the game, so Waller was 225 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 3: asked to do a little bit more blocking. The Dolphins 226 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 3: are middle of the pack against tight ends. They don't 227 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 3: bring a ton of pressure, which I think has helped 228 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 3: Danny Dimes, and they're gonna score a bunch of points 229 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 3: against the Giants defense. So I'm guessing that means the 230 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:26,959 Speaker 3: Giants are gonna be throwing the ball a whole lot. 231 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know why they haven't just schemed 232 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 2: up more things because he is the most consistent playmaking 233 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 2: pass catcher they have in the offense. They're not using 234 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,680 Speaker 2: Jalen Hyatt that I don't know what they're doing offensively, 235 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 2: but why not just try and force feed Darren Waller. 236 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 2: Hopefully that happens this week. Jake Ferguson, and I said 237 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,559 Speaker 2: this on NFL Fantasy Live. There are only a handful 238 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 2: of tight ends I can think of to like confidently 239 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 2: start over Jake Ferguson. Right now, it's Travis Kelcey, It's 240 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:56,319 Speaker 2: TJ Hawkinson, it's Sam Laporta, it's Evan Ingram. Trying to 241 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 2: think of like a fifth one of Mark and Mark Andrews. 242 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,040 Speaker 2: Third is Mark Andrews is the other guy that I 243 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 2: would start over. Other than that, if you don't have 244 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,960 Speaker 2: one of those five guys, why aren't you starting Jake Ferguson, 245 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 2: He was available. 246 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 3: On the waiver wire in a whole bunch of NFL 247 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 3: dot Com leagues earlier this week. Hopefully you were the 248 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 3: lucky one that picked him up, especially if you have. 249 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 3: I don't know, Kyle Pitts. Maybe Jake Ferguson has seen 250 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 3: elite well exactly seven targets in three of his four 251 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,680 Speaker 3: games so far this season, and he has been Fantasy 252 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 3: productive with them. The Cowboys also love to utilize their 253 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 3: tight ends in the red zone. So right now, Jake 254 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 3: Ferguson is looking like the Dalton Schultz, the new Dalton 255 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 3: Schultz there for Dak Prescott and this Cowboys offense, even 256 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 3: in a tough matchup against the forty nine Ers defense, 257 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 3: I'm not shying away from I think you gotta start him. 258 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 2: I mean you gotta start him. He's still available on 259 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 2: about sixty percent of NFL dot Com league. So if 260 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 2: you're playing on NFL dot Com, give it a look 261 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 2: because there's a chance Jake Ferguson could be there for you. 262 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 2: Hunter Henry, I said a couple weeks ago that Hunter 263 00:11:58,040 --> 00:11:59,599 Speaker 2: Henry was about to break your heart. He had a 264 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 2: good start to the season, had a couple of touchdowns. 265 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,199 Speaker 2: I just knew that it wasn't going to be sustainable. 266 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 2: And you don't like him this week against New Orleans. 267 00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, hot start, Like you said, He's really only had 268 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 3: one bad game. By a tight end standard, at least 269 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:16,199 Speaker 3: for fantasy purposes. But his offense is in complete shambles 270 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 3: right now, and he draws the hardest matchup for a 271 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 3: tight end right now. The Saints have allowed a league 272 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 3: low eighty two receiving yeards sets through four games. It's 273 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:28,840 Speaker 3: about twenty yards per game, give or take just one touchdown, 274 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 3: and the second fewest catches to the position given the matchup. 275 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 3: Given how his offense has looked right now, I think 276 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:37,640 Speaker 3: there's better options at the position. 277 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 2: This Yeah, I just I don't trust anything really with 278 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 2: the Patriots offense. Like I still want to try and 279 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,720 Speaker 2: believe in Remandre even but it's getting harder because they 280 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:47,959 Speaker 2: just they can't move the ball, they can't score points. 281 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 2: It's really rough for the guys with the flags on 282 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 2: their helmets. Time now for a secondent. We like to 283 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:56,320 Speaker 2: call how we feel in We'll rip through some of 284 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 2: the guys we're getting asked about the most on social 285 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:02,000 Speaker 2: media websites dot and let's you know if they should 286 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 2: be in your lineups this week. So let's start with 287 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 2: Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Junior going against the 288 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 2: Tennessee Titans and their past funnel defense. How you feeling 289 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 2: about MPJ. 290 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 3: I'm feeling good about him this week. I think this 291 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,199 Speaker 3: is a big bounce back spot. I know he's coming 292 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 3: off his first down game of the season, but he's 293 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 3: still tied for the team lead in targets and the 294 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:25,439 Speaker 3: Titans they're in the top five in yards allowed to receivers, 295 00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 3: but they really struggle against the deep ball as well. 296 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 3: We know that is an area where Pittman and Anthony 297 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 3: Richardson could excel. I mean, Richardson could throw it like 298 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 3: fifty yards while falling down. So I feel good about 299 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 3: Pittman bouncing back. Feel really good about Pittman this week. 300 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 2: Also feeling really good about David Montgomery against the Carolina Panthers. 301 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 2: As much as a lot of people out there want 302 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 2: Jamior Gibbs to get a bigger role, and look, maybe 303 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 2: one day it's going to happen. Right now, this is 304 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 2: David Montgomery show. He is effective, he's running the football well. 305 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 2: I know he's not flashy, but he's getting the job done. 306 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 2: And he gets to face a Panthers run defense that 307 00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,559 Speaker 2: has been awful all year long. I would expect that 308 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 2: David Montgomery is going to get plenty of touches, plenty 309 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 2: of opportunities to just run through that Panther defense, and 310 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 2: I feel great about having him in the lineup. Meanwhile, 311 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 2: Jamison Williams expected back for Detroit against the Panthers pass defense. 312 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 2: How do you feel about him? 313 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 3: I feel great about having him back on my fantasy rosters. 314 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 3: Not quite ready yet to put him in the starting lineup. 315 00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 3: He's coming off the hamstring injury, the suspension, all of 316 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 3: that in a game where I think the Lions will 317 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 3: be playing from ahead and probably running the ball a 318 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 3: whole bunch in the second half, I want him on 319 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 3: all of as many rosters as I possibly can. I 320 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 3: just want to take a wait and see approach. 321 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's probably whise because even Dan Campbell's 322 00:14:36,880 --> 00:14:38,720 Speaker 2: saying he's going to play kind of a specific role 323 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 2: in the offense. Meanwhile, George Pickens to you know, on 324 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 2: the Baltimore Ravens, it looks like Kimmy Pickett is going 325 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 2: to play. I feel kind of about him. I mean, 326 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 2: full disclosure, I have him in the sleepers column, but 327 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 2: I'm not expecting big production out of him. What helps 328 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 2: for him is that he's pretty much the only guy 329 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 2: that's making plays in the passing game for this offense, 330 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 2: So I think that's a good signed. The bad news 331 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 2: is the Ravens have been really tough against opposing passing games. 332 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 2: So we'll see how it is. I feel like if 333 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 2: you have to start him, I understand. If you have 334 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 2: other options, maybe you consider those, but I get it 335 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 2: if this is what you got to do. Meanwhile, Isaiah Pachecko, 336 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 2: who runs like he's trying to kill the turf monster, 337 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 2: how do you feel about him against the Vikings this week? 338 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 3: I was gonna say, unless you're Blade of Grass at 339 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 3: the USBA Stadium right now, you should be feeling good 340 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 3: about Isaiah Pachecko. He's been more effective as a fantasy 341 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 3: running back. He's getting used more in the passing game, 342 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 3: and I think this is a game where the Chiefs 343 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 3: could have a lead in the second half and we 344 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,160 Speaker 3: know that they like to grind the clockout using Pachecko. 345 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Isaiah Pachecko is playing well. I mean, 346 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 2: as much as you know, I won't say I faded him, 347 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 2: but I was not big on him. But the credit 348 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 2: where it's to do. He's playing some really good football 349 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 2: right now. Speaking of Pachecko, We're going to be talking 350 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 2: about some running backs after the break, plus going to 351 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 2: open up the velvet ropes to get inside club up. 352 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 2: Stick around for more of the startup Sit Them show. 353 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 2: Let's talk some start them, Sit them running backs four 354 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 2: Week five Mike. 355 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:09,560 Speaker 3: Devon Ahn is one hundred percent a must start option, 356 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 3: James Connor in a good matchup, and Brece Hall. The 357 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 3: fourth name there was Brian Robinson. I did not expect 358 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 3: them to drop back fifty five times in. 359 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 2: A row this week. 360 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 3: My bad the sits Ramandre Stevenson. Maybe you can't get away, 361 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 3: but if you can, I would Najie Harris. Same thing 362 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:27,760 Speaker 3: pains me to say, Jamir Gibbs, and then Miles Sanders. 363 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 3: I have him on a couple of teams. I won 364 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 3: no part of him in my starting line. 365 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 2: The Trooper Hubbard run last week was a little bit 366 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 2: surprising and a little bit worrisome for Miles Sanders. But 367 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 2: let's start with Breese Hall, who look the leash is off. 368 00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 2: No more snapcounts, no more limits. I also means you 369 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:48,360 Speaker 2: could probably take a bite of Dovin Cook. But the 370 00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 2: good news is Breese Hall full go against a bad 371 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:53,000 Speaker 2: Broncos defense. 372 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:55,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, and It was a good sign last week to 373 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 3: see him lead the backfield and carries, routes, targets, all 374 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 3: of that now no snapcount, like you said, and just 375 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,159 Speaker 3: in time for the best possible matchup a running back 376 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 3: could have the Denver Broncos. Not only have they allowed 377 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 3: the most rushing yards, it was over one hundred more 378 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:12,159 Speaker 3: than any other team entering Week five, they've allowed the 379 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:15,919 Speaker 3: most touchdowns and are top five in receiving yards, touchdowns 380 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 3: and catches allowed two running backs. I'm hoping for a 381 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 3: vintage maybe Breese Hall's best game as a pro. 382 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:25,120 Speaker 2: So far as what I'm hoping, I would like that. 383 00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 2: That would be fun. I would enjoy that. Jamiir Gibbs, 384 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:30,919 Speaker 2: you mentioned how it pained you to put him on 385 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,160 Speaker 2: the set list, and we keep wanting bigger, better things 386 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:36,160 Speaker 2: for Jamiir Gibbs. We were told that they were going 387 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:38,640 Speaker 2: to use him in ways we never imagined, and they 388 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,719 Speaker 2: are right because I never imagined that he was going 389 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:44,439 Speaker 2: to be playing second fiddle to David Montgomery. But what 390 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:47,560 Speaker 2: is is, so we are sitting him against the Panthers. 391 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,639 Speaker 3: Yeah, for everything that you said, like right now, on 392 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,639 Speaker 3: a per touch basis, he is averaging more yards per carry, 393 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:57,199 Speaker 3: more yards before and after contact, more explosive runs. It 394 00:17:57,320 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 3: does not matter whatsoever. All the volume, all the goal 395 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:05,119 Speaker 3: on volume especially is going to David Montgomery. Gibbs is 396 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:08,919 Speaker 3: averaging just nine point seven Fantasy points per game, and 397 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:10,880 Speaker 3: I think this is a game where the Lions will 398 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 3: have a lead, which scares me because when that happened 399 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 3: last week, David Montgomery ran thirty two times. So yeah, 400 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:19,000 Speaker 3: I'm trying to get Gibbs out the laws. 401 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 2: If the Lions have a lead, it's going to be 402 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 2: the David Montgomery show. You better believe that. And that's 403 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 2: kind of what I'm thinking is going to happen this week. 404 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 2: Remandre Stevenson. I know Adam Rank still has high hopes. 405 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 2: He's still optimistic about Remandre, and God bless him for that, 406 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 2: because I want to be on that same train too. 407 00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 2: I just cannot be. You have him as a sit 408 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:36,679 Speaker 2: against New Orleans. 409 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, he is yet to run for sixty yards in 410 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 3: a game this season, and then the past game usage, 411 00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 3: that's what we were hanging our head on for Remandre 412 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,160 Speaker 3: Stevenson last year. He does not have more than ten 413 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:51,119 Speaker 3: receiving yards in a game since Week one. Well, the 414 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 3: Saints are stingy against running backs altogether, but we saw 415 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 3: when the Patriots are playing in a close gamer with 416 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:00,919 Speaker 3: a lead, that is when they like to get Ezekiel 417 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 3: Elliott more involved. We saw it in Week two against 418 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:05,200 Speaker 3: the Jets, and that is my fear that we see 419 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:07,520 Speaker 3: it again this week. I understand you maybe can't get 420 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:09,399 Speaker 3: away from him, but if you have another option that 421 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:10,760 Speaker 3: you feel pretty good about, I would. 422 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,879 Speaker 2: We are happy to be joined once again by researcher 423 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 2: extraordinaire Rams Homer and man of floral print Shirts, LaQuan Jones. 424 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 2: Good to see again, LQ. 425 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:22,239 Speaker 4: What's up? 426 00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 2: What's up? 427 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:22,800 Speaker 3: Man? 428 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:23,399 Speaker 4: It's Friday. 429 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:25,439 Speaker 2: I got my loud shirt on, So I feeling good, man, 430 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 2: feeling pretty good? All right, So if you're feeling so great, 431 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 2: how about you give us your five sleepers of the week. Listen. 432 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 4: Coming at number five, I got Michael Wilson. He's been 433 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,200 Speaker 4: showing up and showing out these last two weeks. Man, 434 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 4: he's been really impressive. I mean two hundred and thirty 435 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 4: seven receiving yards, he's second on the team. But what's 436 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 4: really standing out to me is this fourteen point eight 437 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 4: receiving yards per target, which is first on the team. 438 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 4: So this guy's getting separation and he's making the difficult, 439 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 4: difficult catches. I mean, he's playing out wide and he's 440 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 4: also playing in the slide, which is great, but that 441 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 4: could be why Roano Moore hasn't been on the field 442 00:19:57,000 --> 00:20:00,080 Speaker 4: much because of Michael Wilson eating up that sly as well. 443 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:02,639 Speaker 4: He's going up against his Bengals defense, who allowed a 444 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 4: receiving touchdown to a wide receiver in each of the 445 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 4: last three games. But man, these guys that were scoring 446 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 4: those touchdowns, they were wide receiver two, wide receiver three 447 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 4: type guys, not number one. So Michael Wilson he has 448 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 4: a chance this week and coming in at number four, 449 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 4: I got Jayden reid Man. He's another rookie that's been 450 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 4: standing out to me, Man, what can't this guy do? 451 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:24,399 Speaker 4: Jet sweeps, contested catches downfield, He's standing out. He's jumping 452 00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 4: off the paper right now. But he's averaging eleven and 453 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 4: a half Fantasy points per game right now. He's been 454 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 4: on the hot and cold streak the last couple of weeks. 455 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,359 Speaker 4: But I like this Raiders defense. They're kind of a 456 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,920 Speaker 4: mid of ale pack defense, and he has the upside 457 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 4: to make the big plays. I mean, he has seven 458 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 4: targets of twenty plus air yards, which is tied seventh 459 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 4: in the NFL. And we've seen last week the Raiders 460 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 4: give up some really big passes to Josh Palmer closing 461 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 4: out the deal. But listen, I really feel like this 462 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 4: is the opportunity for Jordan Love and Jayden Reid to 463 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 4: connect downfield. He has a healthy twenty percent target share. 464 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 4: Not really worried about Christian Watson because he plays outside 465 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 4: and Red is eating up the slot. So I like 466 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,360 Speaker 4: him this week as a sleeper. Next up, I got 467 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 4: John new Smith, the Falcons tight end one. I know 468 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 4: Kyle Pitts managers are not gonna like that, but man, 469 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:08,800 Speaker 4: he's looked good. Last week he had a career high 470 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 4: ninety five receiving yards in a game. And did I 471 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,199 Speaker 4: mention he's leading the Falcons in receiving yards right now, 472 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 4: which is crazy to think about, but he's looking like 473 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 4: Desmond Ritters go to tight end. There's no other team 474 00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:21,119 Speaker 4: in the NFL right now there are a target and 475 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 4: a tight ends more than the Falcons. Thirty seven percent 476 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,160 Speaker 4: target shared to this tight end the unit, which is crazy, 477 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,880 Speaker 4: but going against this Texans defense were on the road 478 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,159 Speaker 4: going into the Falcons house, and hopefully we can get 479 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 4: a better version of Desmond Ridder because he's four to 480 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 4: oh at home. So let's get some points to John 481 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:37,919 Speaker 4: the Smith this week. And coming up next, we got 482 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 4: Zay Flowers going against this Pittsburgh Steelers defense. He's electric man, 483 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:45,440 Speaker 4: a home run ability at any point, an explosive playmaker. 484 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,040 Speaker 4: But I know the fantasy points have been on snooze 485 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:49,680 Speaker 4: as of late, but I think this is the game 486 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 4: where they wake up against the Steelers defense who's allowing 487 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 4: the second most fantasy points per game to wide receivers 488 00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:57,920 Speaker 4: in the most completetions of ten plus yards by the way, 489 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,680 Speaker 4: So this is an opportunity for Lamar and Fers to 490 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 4: go down the field and make the big plays. And 491 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,199 Speaker 4: there's no question here whatsoever about the volume. I mean, 492 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,199 Speaker 4: he's leading the team in targets with a twenty eight 493 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 4: percent targets here. That's elite. Zay Fowers light the Pittsburgh 494 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:13,639 Speaker 4: Steelers up this weekend, please and thank you now and 495 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 4: to going. 496 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:15,120 Speaker 2: To my sleeper. 497 00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:19,160 Speaker 4: As crazy as sounds, Zach Wilson against this bad, bad, 498 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 4: bad Denver defense man, he looked good last week against 499 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 4: the Chiefs. Man, he's gaining some confidence. He had a 500 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 4: career high one hundred and five point two passer rating, 501 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:29,200 Speaker 4: which is great. 502 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:29,400 Speaker 2: Man. 503 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,199 Speaker 4: He looked cool, common collected. He made better decisions with 504 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 4: big Bro up in the skybox watching them. Man Rodgers, 505 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:37,679 Speaker 4: there's pressure, but hey, pressure mixed diamonds. He made some 506 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 4: big boy throws. So going against this Denver defense man, 507 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:43,960 Speaker 4: they're bad against quarterbacks. They're allowing the most fantasy points 508 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:46,920 Speaker 4: two quarterbacks right now, in the most touchdowns. This could 509 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:48,639 Speaker 4: be a game that could be a launch pad for 510 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 4: Wilson to set the tone for the rest of the season. 511 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,880 Speaker 2: I believe in you, Zach. I believe in Zach Wilson too. 512 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 2: This week, I mean, it's gonna come back to Burners. 513 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:57,879 Speaker 2: There's no way, there's no way, there's no way this 514 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 2: doesn't come back to Burners. But I believe Zach Wills. 515 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 2: This week. Also, when you said John new Smith, I 516 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 2: heard the sad prices right horn in my head bump. 517 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 2: Just because we all put our chips on Kyle Pitts again, 518 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,679 Speaker 2: yees this year. All right, enough, tom me get excited 519 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 2: because we are putting on our finance. We're spraying on 520 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,639 Speaker 2: the X body spraying. Let's say the guys that we 521 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 2: guarantee will score twenty five or more fantasy points this week, 522 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 2: So the kwand we handed back to you. Who's getting 523 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:26,359 Speaker 2: into the club this week. 524 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 4: Listen, Joe Mixon's on his way to the club this weekend, 525 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 4: and you can tell by the shirt. 526 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:32,720 Speaker 2: I'm rolling with him. Man, I'm definitely. 527 00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:35,359 Speaker 4: Ryan with Mixing going against this Cardinals defense. We're allowing 528 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 4: the third most fantasy points for gaining to running backs 529 00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 4: and they also have the fourth most mistackles in the 530 00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,199 Speaker 4: league right now. But more importantly, they're tied fifth with 531 00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,000 Speaker 4: the most receptions allowed to running backs. We saw Mixing 532 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 4: last season have a career high in targets, receiving yards, 533 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 4: and receptions. So the Bengals really got a lean on 534 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:54,160 Speaker 4: them with this banged up offense. You got T Higgins 535 00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,120 Speaker 4: deal with a rib injury, he's questionable, Joe Burrow not 536 00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 4: playing at one hundred percent right now, so this would 537 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 4: be the time that the Bengals can lean on Joe 538 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:04,639 Speaker 4: Mixon get more involved in the past game. So this 539 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:07,119 Speaker 4: could be a Joe Mixon breakout game this week. 540 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:08,760 Speaker 2: Listen to this. 541 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:10,199 Speaker 3: Man when it comes to club and he's from the 542 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 3: same town as situation in Snookie. 543 00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:13,640 Speaker 2: He knows a thing or two about it. 544 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 3: For me, I'm gonna look, I'm taking Devon ah Chan 545 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:21,159 Speaker 3: because he's amazing. Like, I don't know what else I 546 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 3: need to say about that. He's basically averaging a visit 547 00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 3: to Club Dub each and every week. Last week eight carries, 548 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 3: he turned it into over one hundred yards. He's being 549 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 3: used as the goal line runner there. He's playing more 550 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 3: snaps than raheem mostered, and he is being utilized in 551 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:38,640 Speaker 3: the passing game. And I haven't even said anything about 552 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 3: the matchup he plays the Giants. Do I need to 553 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:44,320 Speaker 3: say anything more? He is going to go off this week? 554 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:45,840 Speaker 3: Make sure he is in your starting line up. 555 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 1: All right? 556 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 2: So Levon a Chan who has been the new hotness 557 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:50,920 Speaker 2: and starting to get his name on the list at 558 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,159 Speaker 2: Club Dub, I'm gonna go with Breese Hall. And you 559 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,200 Speaker 2: know you heard Florio talk about him as a guy 560 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:59,359 Speaker 2: on the start list this week. You heard El LQ 561 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:03,199 Speaker 2: talk about to Zach Wilson being a sleeper. I like 562 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,439 Speaker 2: the Jets offense this week. I don't know, I mean, 563 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 2: I do like the Jets offense. I also just like 564 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,400 Speaker 2: going against the Broncos defense. I don't really care how 565 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 2: you figure it, but this is the week that we 566 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 2: see a lot of Breeze Hall. The training wheels are off, 567 00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 2: there are no limits, there are no snap restrictions. It's 568 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 2: going to be a heavy dose of Breeze Hall going 569 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,639 Speaker 2: against a bad defense. This is the week that the 570 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:23,440 Speaker 2: Jets sort of make you believe. Now, mind you, they'll 571 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:25,479 Speaker 2: probably snatch that hope away later in the season, but 572 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:27,720 Speaker 2: for now, the Jets are gonna make you believe in 573 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 2: everybody who spent that draft capital on Breeze Hall. At 574 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:33,440 Speaker 2: least for one week. You're gonna be happy you did 575 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 2: it when he's popping bottles in Club Dub. Before we 576 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,120 Speaker 2: get out of here, we do want to say thank 577 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,880 Speaker 2: you and goodbye to one of our own, our own 578 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,199 Speaker 2: Parker Fenton, who has been with us for years and 579 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 2: is law off to bigger and better things.
