WEBVTT - It's Sabotage Season! 0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:03.880 Welcome to Fantasy Football Weekly, a production of I Heart Radio. 0:00:05.920 --> 0:00:09.760 Time now for Fantasy Football Weekly from I Heart Radio, 0:00:10.240 --> 0:00:14.040 your weekly source for the nation's best fantasy speculation and 0:00:14.120 --> 0:00:23.680 advice Leagues dot Com. Here's your host, Paul. Welcome to 0:00:23.720 --> 0:00:26.079 a week ten edition of Fantasy Football Weekly. I'm Paul 0:00:26.120 --> 0:00:29.560 Charchi and my co host today are Matt Harrison and 0:00:29.600 --> 0:00:34.320 Brian Johnson. Hello, guys, Guten tag. Yeah, we've got a 0:00:34.440 --> 0:00:39.800 Munich game. It's exciting, first ever game in Germany. It's uh, 0:00:39.920 --> 0:00:42.800 you know, we used to have the European and NFL 0:00:42.880 --> 0:00:45.320 Europe or whatever. Yeah, you know, the world what they 0:00:45.360 --> 0:00:47.320 call it, Well, it was NFL Europe. It was the 0:00:47.360 --> 0:00:51.120 World League before that, I think something something like that. 0:00:51.200 --> 0:00:53.600 And those uh, those days are gone. Have added that 0:00:53.840 --> 0:01:00.480 nine times soundbar, but I like it. Robbie and on that. 0:01:01.040 --> 0:01:07.080 Where was this idea? Pre show? The show? Come on, 0:01:07.160 --> 0:01:11.520 you're killing us right now. I forget how to say sorry, 0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:15.920 but I'm sorry. We'll have to bring in our new 0:01:15.959 --> 0:01:20.920 German correspondent later in the show. German correspondent foreign exchange 0:01:20.959 --> 0:01:26.480 student Deeter von Fertson Gott can't wait, very excited Deter 0:01:26.959 --> 0:01:32.720 from but Deeters actually here in town. Yeah, he's not 0:01:32.880 --> 0:01:35.840 in Munich. He's an exchange student. I believe he's staying 0:01:35.880 --> 0:01:38.759 at Scott Fish's basement. That is correct, and I believe 0:01:38.800 --> 0:01:41.240 fortunately speak some English. We may need some help with that. 0:01:41.560 --> 0:01:43.960 Over the course of this show, we will give you 0:01:44.200 --> 0:01:46.240 nine players upon whom you can take a chance. We'll 0:01:46.240 --> 0:01:50.320 answer three tough questions, give you premature speculation, we'll hear 0:01:50.360 --> 0:01:53.480 from Deeter, and we'll break down all of the games, 0:01:53.560 --> 0:01:58.560 beginning with the Texans taking on the Giants. Brian Brandon 0:01:58.560 --> 0:02:00.640 Cooks actually gonna play in this game, even sounds like 0:02:00.680 --> 0:02:03.400 how about that? He's decided he he would like to 0:02:03.440 --> 0:02:08.440 make the roughly one million dollars a game he gets paid. Yeah, 0:02:08.480 --> 0:02:10.560 I wanted to start with your boy, Damian Pierce, but 0:02:10.600 --> 0:02:13.240 we'll start with Brandon Cooks, who I have on the 0:02:13.240 --> 0:02:16.360 bench though, even though he is making his return uh 0:02:16.560 --> 0:02:20.520 from a wrist injury and and hurt feelings from last week. 0:02:21.160 --> 0:02:25.120 It's a bad matchup for Cooks though, and all the 0:02:25.160 --> 0:02:27.560 Texans wide receivers are all on the bench. New York 0:02:27.639 --> 0:02:31.280 is allowing the fourth fewest catches and yards per game 0:02:31.320 --> 0:02:33.520 to wide receivers, and for that reason, or not for 0:02:33.560 --> 0:02:35.800 that reason, but just the whole pass game for the 0:02:35.800 --> 0:02:39.520 Texans on the bench, including the tight ends, all four 0:02:39.600 --> 0:02:43.320 of them who saw a target last week. I think O. J. 0:02:43.400 --> 0:02:48.359 Howard led the way with two targets a Texans side ends. 0:02:48.400 --> 0:02:51.200 So uh needs to say Davis Mills on the bench 0:02:51.240 --> 0:02:54.480 as well. Opposing quarterbacks are averaging just two thirty passing 0:02:54.560 --> 0:02:58.080 yards against New York, who have allowed zero or one 0:02:58.200 --> 0:03:01.520 passing touchdown in five of eight games. No quarterback has 0:03:01.560 --> 0:03:04.600 thrown for more than two scores against them. So Mills 0:03:04.720 --> 0:03:07.359 is on the bench, but not your boy Damien Pierce. 0:03:07.440 --> 0:03:11.680 Charge he gets the Giants in his borderline a because 0:03:12.040 --> 0:03:13.959 he's gonna touch the ball thirty times for them to 0:03:14.000 --> 0:03:15.920 have a chance in this game. The Giants allow these 0:03:15.960 --> 0:03:19.639 seventh most rushing yards per game on the third highest 0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:23.240 yards per carry allout at five point four, and since 0:03:23.320 --> 0:03:26.480 Week five, Pierces averaging twenty four and a half touches 0:03:26.520 --> 0:03:29.000 per game even when they get blowed out, even when 0:03:29.000 --> 0:03:32.920 they get blown out Pierce. That's second among running backs 0:03:33.000 --> 0:03:35.520 during that span, behind only Derrick Henry. So so Pierce 0:03:35.600 --> 0:03:37.080 is a bell cow. You gotta start him with a 0:03:37.200 --> 0:03:40.040 b over to the giant side. Not not a whole 0:03:40.040 --> 0:03:45.600 lot to like here, but you obviously like UHN love sake, 0:03:45.720 --> 0:03:48.960 Kwan Barkley. He gets an a the Texans kind of 0:03:49.000 --> 0:03:57.320 a I think God the fantasy fan, Kwan Barkley. The 0:03:57.360 --> 0:04:00.600 Texans are the worst defense against the Raw and allowing 0:04:00.680 --> 0:04:03.280 one hundred and fifty four rushing yards at one point 0:04:03.320 --> 0:04:07.560 five rushing scores per game over their last three games alone. 0:04:07.640 --> 0:04:11.600 Houston has given up seven rushing touchdowns and five hundred 0:04:11.600 --> 0:04:14.360 and sixty seven rushing yards. That is one hundred eighty 0:04:14.440 --> 0:04:17.479 nine rushing yards per game over their last three So 0:04:17.560 --> 0:04:20.360 wet Barkley, UH said it and forget it with him, 0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:23.400 and that should be uh his status the rest of 0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:28.360 the season really over to the wide receivers Wan Dale Robinson, 0:04:28.480 --> 0:04:31.520 Darius Slayton, and this guy named Kenny Golladay who might 0:04:31.600 --> 0:04:33.919 have heard of them all. They're all on the bench. 0:04:34.279 --> 0:04:36.760 Teams don't throw against the Texans. I don't have to. 0:04:36.839 --> 0:04:39.080 They don't have to. The Texans on the third lowest 0:04:39.120 --> 0:04:43.280 opponent passing play percentage opposing wide receivers as a whole 0:04:43.440 --> 0:04:46.359 or averaging less than ten catches per game against Houston, 0:04:46.800 --> 0:04:49.600 who have also only allowed three touchdowns to the position 0:04:49.680 --> 0:04:52.600 all season. So they're on the bench the wide receivers, 0:04:52.640 --> 0:04:57.760 so as Tanner Hudson the Giants starting tight end. And 0:04:57.800 --> 0:05:00.760 it's a shame. I wish Daniel Bellinger was healthy enough 0:05:00.800 --> 0:05:03.520 to play Texans. The Texans are allowing more than fifty 0:05:03.600 --> 0:05:05.760 yards fifty yards per game to tight ends. But I 0:05:05.800 --> 0:05:09.120 just can't give Tanner Hudson a starting grade. And I 0:05:09.160 --> 0:05:13.279 was close to giving Daniel Jones a see I still 0:05:13.320 --> 0:05:15.200 got him on the bench. Though. The average stat line 0:05:15.240 --> 0:05:17.640 for opposing quarterbacks against the Texans is two hundred and 0:05:17.680 --> 0:05:21.960 thirty yards and zero point nine touchdowns per game. And 0:05:22.040 --> 0:05:26.680 Houston has also contained mobile mobile mobile quarterbacks this season. 0:05:26.800 --> 0:05:30.320 Jalen Hurts, Malik Willis, and Justin Fields combined to average 0:05:30.800 --> 0:05:35.320 two scoreless rushing yards per game against Houston. So on borderline, 0:05:36.720 --> 0:05:38.200 see on Jones. But I got him on the bench, 0:05:38.320 --> 0:05:40.000 all right, got him. I like it. We'll just call 0:05:40.000 --> 0:05:42.000 it what it is. Vikings take on the Bills and 0:05:42.040 --> 0:05:44.360 a ton of moving parts in this game. I'm gonna 0:05:44.360 --> 0:05:46.599 start on the Viking side with Kirk Cousins. The Bill 0:05:46.720 --> 0:05:49.000 secondary is dealing with a bunch of injuries and all 0:05:49.000 --> 0:05:51.320 these moving parts are injury related. But we got we 0:05:51.360 --> 0:05:54.200 know that both starting safeties for Buffalo, Micah Hyde and 0:05:54.680 --> 0:05:58.799 Jordan Poyer are out. There are starting defensive end Greg 0:05:58.880 --> 0:06:03.680 Rousseau out. We're gonna watch the status of cornerback Dane Jackson, 0:06:04.200 --> 0:06:07.080 you're elam, and whether or not Tradavious White it's gonna 0:06:07.080 --> 0:06:09.920 make his two debut in this game. It's a lot 0:06:09.920 --> 0:06:13.360 of question marks. That's a lot of question marks when healthy, 0:06:13.400 --> 0:06:16.600 which they're not. This is an elite secondary allowing only 0:06:16.640 --> 0:06:19.599 one touchdown pass per game. They've also held five of 0:06:19.680 --> 0:06:23.600 seven opposing passers to under two three yards, which is nothing. 0:06:25.080 --> 0:06:27.920 But given the all the state of all the injuries here, 0:06:27.960 --> 0:06:30.360 you want to watch this up until up until kickoff. 0:06:30.360 --> 0:06:32.359 And I've got Kirk Cousins with a B grade. But 0:06:32.440 --> 0:06:35.560 if it turns out Dane Jackson tire, Elam, don't go. 0:06:36.160 --> 0:06:37.839 I mean, at that point, I think you could probably 0:06:37.839 --> 0:06:41.240 elevate Kirk Cousins to an A status. Speaking of which 0:06:41.320 --> 0:06:45.400 Justin Jefferson a status. Again, if all of these players, 0:06:45.600 --> 0:06:47.560 you know, enough of these players are out, I think 0:06:47.560 --> 0:06:49.960 he's a safe A. I would I would consider him 0:06:50.000 --> 0:06:52.280 a B where everybody healthy, But it just doesn't look 0:06:52.279 --> 0:06:54.599 like it's shaping up that way for that secondary and 0:06:54.640 --> 0:06:58.920 staying with the passing game. T J. Hockenson another injury 0:06:58.960 --> 0:07:02.520 situation to watch. The Bills have got two of the 0:07:02.560 --> 0:07:07.440 best coverage linebackers in the league, Matt Milano and Tremaine Edmonds. 0:07:08.120 --> 0:07:11.040 I think Milano is gonna go. I think Edmonds is 0:07:11.080 --> 0:07:13.080 not going to go. But they also use their safety 0:07:13.160 --> 0:07:15.760 Jordan Poyer, who normally draws a lot of US of 0:07:16.160 --> 0:07:18.880 a tight end coverage. But and he's already been ruled out. 0:07:18.960 --> 0:07:21.040 So if it turns out all these guys are out, 0:07:21.120 --> 0:07:23.680 let's move up t J. Hockinson to an A. If not, 0:07:23.840 --> 0:07:26.400 they're a B. He is a B. Excuse me so, 0:07:26.520 --> 0:07:28.480 and at full strength, let me mention this. This is 0:07:28.480 --> 0:07:30.680 an awesome path. There's an awesome if they all end 0:07:30.720 --> 0:07:33.720 up playing. This is a fantastic tight end defense that 0:07:33.840 --> 0:07:36.560 is not allowed to touch down all seasons. So show 0:07:36.640 --> 0:07:38.760 some caution either way on t J. Hockenson, But a 0:07:38.840 --> 0:07:40.440 B grade based on what we believe is going to 0:07:40.480 --> 0:07:43.400 be the injury situation right now. Adam Feeling's got an 0:07:43.400 --> 0:07:46.000 ankle injury. It looks like he's going to be okay 0:07:46.040 --> 0:07:48.520 and play for in this game. But I still feel 0:07:48.560 --> 0:07:51.200 like this, and and by the way, seeing a reasonably 0:07:51.240 --> 0:07:56.120 healthy six targets per game, UM still again monitor the 0:07:56.120 --> 0:07:58.120 status here. I've only got the C grade on him. 0:07:58.160 --> 0:08:00.200 If the second ay is all active, you could drop 0:08:00.280 --> 0:08:01.800 him down to bench. If they're all miss you could 0:08:02.120 --> 0:08:04.080 elevate him to an A. And the last thing I'll 0:08:04.120 --> 0:08:08.200 mention on on this a nervous A grade for Dalvin Cooks. 0:08:08.240 --> 0:08:10.360 He's scored in four straight games, which is great, but 0:08:10.400 --> 0:08:12.320 his box cars are getting salvaged by one or two 0:08:12.400 --> 0:08:16.400 remarkable plays every game. The Bills run defense had been 0:08:16.440 --> 0:08:18.880 awesome to start the season. Prior to Week eight, no 0:08:19.040 --> 0:08:21.440 running back had reached forty eight yards on the ground, 0:08:21.480 --> 0:08:24.200 but in the last two weeks, four running backs have 0:08:24.400 --> 0:08:26.680 topped forty eight yards in the last two games, So 0:08:27.200 --> 0:08:29.280 maybe there's a chance here that he gets little something done. 0:08:29.280 --> 0:08:32.640 The Vikings run defense has been pretty uneven, or run 0:08:32.679 --> 0:08:35.960 blocking has been uneven to my eyes, but Pro Football 0:08:36.000 --> 0:08:39.600 Focus loves the Vikings is run blockers, So maybe maybe 0:08:39.640 --> 0:08:41.800 Cooks a little better than we think. Nervous A grade 0:08:41.840 --> 0:08:44.480 on him all right, Now, the other half of this 0:08:44.559 --> 0:08:49.320 complicated matchup on the Bill side I'm gonna do this 0:08:49.400 --> 0:08:53.200 whole thing as though Josh Allen is playing. If he's not, 0:08:53.800 --> 0:08:56.360 drop everybody down a full letter grade as we go 0:08:56.400 --> 0:08:58.680 down to case Keenum. This makes sense. Okay, it's not 0:08:58.800 --> 0:09:01.600 even or all whole alphabet, or it is the letters, 0:09:01.720 --> 0:09:07.880 just not all of the letters. Six letters. Case Keenum 0:09:08.000 --> 0:09:11.920 is not a non functional backup quarterback. I mean, they're 0:09:12.000 --> 0:09:15.760 way worse backup quarterbacks out there than katese keenas z minus. 0:09:16.360 --> 0:09:19.400 There is no he'd have that revenge game angle. So 0:09:19.480 --> 0:09:23.000 let's start with Josh Allen. His throwing elbow obviously is 0:09:23.040 --> 0:09:25.280 affected here. His legs aren't, though, and he can still 0:09:25.360 --> 0:09:27.280 run for a big game even if his passing takes 0:09:27.280 --> 0:09:30.480 a hit. A year. Normally he's in every week a grade, 0:09:30.520 --> 0:09:33.280 but I gotta bake in the threat of him not 0:09:33.360 --> 0:09:36.000 finishing a game he could start, So I've gotta be 0:09:36.080 --> 0:09:38.719 grade on Josh Allen, assuming he's the starter. Let's talk 0:09:38.760 --> 0:09:41.480 about Stefon Diggs, who runs from everywhere on the field, 0:09:41.480 --> 0:09:43.560 and the only place where he finds a particularly tough 0:09:43.600 --> 0:09:45.880 matchup is when he lines up on the right side, 0:09:45.920 --> 0:09:48.240 which is only listen less than actually a third of 0:09:48.240 --> 0:09:52.079 his snaps all other Vikings cornerbacks are struggling significantly, and 0:09:52.120 --> 0:09:54.200 it looks like Ricky cornerback at Caleb Evans is going 0:09:54.280 --> 0:09:57.119 to make his first ever NFL start. That is advantage 0:09:57.120 --> 0:09:59.880 Stefon Diggs with an A grade. They gotta run the 0:10:00.000 --> 0:10:05.400 exact same That's what I've been saying. I would open 0:10:05.600 --> 0:10:09.920 it if it's case. It's case you can't. I'm totally 0:10:10.000 --> 0:10:12.880 with you. Stefon Digg's right side of the field lofted up. 0:10:13.080 --> 0:10:15.880 Then see if a Vikings safety decides to just fall down, 0:10:16.280 --> 0:10:23.839 just jump jumping the receiver. Smith uh gave Davis. I 0:10:24.360 --> 0:10:26.360 kind of like Gabe Davis here. The Vikings are handing 0:10:26.360 --> 0:10:30.880 out big box scores, surrendering mammoth games to DeAndre Hopkins, 0:10:31.080 --> 0:10:33.880 Rondel Moore, Tyreek Hill, Jalen Waddle just in the last 0:10:33.880 --> 0:10:36.120 three games alone. Gabe Davis is always an all or 0:10:36.160 --> 0:10:39.320 nothing fantasy guy, right. If he catches those big long bombs, 0:10:39.320 --> 0:10:41.719 you get, you get big box scores, you get touchdowns. 0:10:41.800 --> 0:10:43.839 And when he does and he gives you nothing. But again, 0:10:43.880 --> 0:10:46.680 the Vikings have two corners that are struggling a lot, 0:10:46.760 --> 0:10:49.320 and I think that's a good opportunity for Gabe Davis 0:10:49.320 --> 0:10:51.360 will give him a B grade in this one. Also 0:10:51.400 --> 0:10:54.640 consider starting Isaiah Mackenzie. You gotta pick your spots with 0:10:54.679 --> 0:10:58.360 this low volume slot receiver. But Minnesota slot cornerback Chandon 0:10:58.400 --> 0:11:01.840 Sullivan allows an eighty two percent catch rate a passer 0:11:01.920 --> 0:11:04.480 rating of a hundred nineteen in his coverage, and he's 0:11:04.520 --> 0:11:07.640 been crushed for one hundred yards twice in his last 0:11:07.679 --> 0:11:11.079 three games. So Isaiah Mackenzie see grade in this one 0:11:11.120 --> 0:11:14.679 as well. Also getting a C grade. Dawson Knox maybe 0:11:14.720 --> 0:11:17.120 just because it's the buy, but super low volume and 0:11:17.160 --> 0:11:20.040 he's completely touchdown dependent. But he's going up against the 0:11:20.120 --> 0:11:22.440 defense that's given up tight and touchdowns in two of 0:11:22.440 --> 0:11:25.160 the past three games. So you could try Dawson Knox 0:11:25.200 --> 0:11:27.080 with a C grade as well if you would like. 0:11:27.679 --> 0:11:32.160 And that leaves us with Devin Singletary with a C grade. 0:11:32.600 --> 0:11:36.000 His touches, his yards per carry, his total yardage output 0:11:36.040 --> 0:11:38.960 has dropped in three straight games, but he's still getting 0:11:39.000 --> 0:11:42.240 the vast majority of the snaps, so that might be 0:11:42.440 --> 0:11:44.240 enough to keep him viable here in a In a 0:11:44.240 --> 0:11:47.079 tricky bye week, Singletary has a tough matchup against the 0:11:47.160 --> 0:11:49.480 Vikings team allowing the fifth fewest rushing yards on the 0:11:49.520 --> 0:11:52.720 third lowest yards per carry to opposing backs and Brian 0:11:52.800 --> 0:11:58.240 Johnson revenge game for Vikings interior defensive lineman Harrison Phillips's 0:11:58.280 --> 0:12:00.880 revenge all around this game he is. There is a 0:12:00.880 --> 0:12:03.360 revenge alroad. He happens to be Minnesota's best run stuffer. 0:12:04.040 --> 0:12:07.080 Back to game Davis real quick spike game. The Vikings 0:12:07.240 --> 0:12:14.760 drafted Justin Jefferson? How dare they? But it doesn't mean 0:12:14.760 --> 0:12:17.520 he's not upset about it? Well, what about what about 0:12:17.520 --> 0:12:20.600 the Vikings drafting Justin Jefferson with the pick they got 0:12:20.640 --> 0:12:23.719 from the Bills. There's something in there right? My head 0:12:23.800 --> 0:12:27.080 hurts now, reminds James Cook on the bench. All right, 0:12:27.160 --> 0:12:29.959 let's see if we can sneak in one last matchup here, 0:12:29.960 --> 0:12:33.000 Colts taking on the Raiders. Yeah, Jonathan Taylor is the 0:12:33.000 --> 0:12:35.960 only cult you can start. He's back practicing in full. 0:12:36.360 --> 0:12:38.600 We'll start this week. The Raiders are allowing a hundred 0:12:38.600 --> 0:12:40.800 and forty four combo yards in a score per game 0:12:40.840 --> 0:12:43.520 to opposing backs. I thought about making him might take 0:12:43.520 --> 0:12:47.600 a chance on me running. I'm giving him a B grade. 0:12:47.640 --> 0:12:50.440 With new head coach and a new play caller, I 0:12:50.440 --> 0:12:53.040 have to think the Jeff Saturday and crew lean heavily 0:12:53.120 --> 0:12:55.480 on their bread and butter in this game, and then 0:12:55.480 --> 0:12:58.160 Sam Ellinger and the passing game, they're all on the bench, 0:12:58.280 --> 0:13:01.400 makes his third career start in three weeks with his 0:13:01.480 --> 0:13:05.520 third offensive coordinator, which is unreal. I'm gonna summon my 0:13:05.720 --> 0:13:07.920 is unreal by the way, I'm gonna summon my inner 0:13:07.960 --> 0:13:12.400 shark tank here, and for that reason, I'm out. Uh. 0:13:12.440 --> 0:13:14.640 They could pull a miracle and win one for the 0:13:14.640 --> 0:13:16.240 new head coach, but I'm not starting any of the 0:13:16.240 --> 0:13:18.719 players in the passing game that includes Michael Pittman. It's 0:13:18.720 --> 0:13:21.320 a decent matchup too, but the Colts only have thrown 0:13:21.400 --> 0:13:25.040 for three four yards and Ellinger's first two starts that's 0:13:25.080 --> 0:13:27.760 one fifty two per game. That's not enough. On the 0:13:27.800 --> 0:13:31.000 other side, did anyone fall for the Josh McDaniels was 0:13:31.080 --> 0:13:34.400 fired by a fake verified Adam schefter on Twitter this week? 0:13:34.520 --> 0:13:38.840 Nobody did? Nobody Twitter look at it. It's obviously fake. 0:13:38.920 --> 0:13:40.240 It would have been fun if we would have had 0:13:40.240 --> 0:13:42.840 two interim coaches playing each other in their first game. 0:13:42.880 --> 0:13:45.000 I don't know if that's ever happened in the NFL. Now, 0:13:45.040 --> 0:13:49.720 what will be funny is if he does get fighted 0:13:49.840 --> 0:13:52.280 and nobody's gonna believe it. No, but he could just 0:13:52.360 --> 0:13:56.200 he could just recycle that tweet. We are starting Josh Jacobs, 0:13:56.200 --> 0:13:58.640 even after a couple of down weeks. The Colts defense 0:13:58.679 --> 0:14:03.160 is seeing the most back touches per game that almost thirty, 0:14:03.200 --> 0:14:06.120 and Jacobs was already averaging twenty per game on the year. 0:14:06.480 --> 0:14:09.800 Opposing backs we've had at least eighteen touches against the Colts. 0:14:10.200 --> 0:14:12.240 They're averaging a hundred and one yards per games. So 0:14:12.360 --> 0:14:16.480 Jacobs gets a solid B Derek cover car. He suffers 0:14:16.520 --> 0:14:20.280 from low C and UH that can be cured by 0:14:20.320 --> 0:14:23.560 some supplement that Frank Thomas's peddling. You know, the big hurt. 0:14:24.440 --> 0:14:27.560 The Colts defense has not allowed a three yard passer 0:14:27.640 --> 0:14:30.080 all year, and it's been five weeks since a quarterback 0:14:30.120 --> 0:14:32.920 through for multiple scores. But in those five weeks they 0:14:32.920 --> 0:14:37.720 played Mac Jones, Taylor Heineke, Ryan Tannehill, Trevor Lawrence, and 0:14:37.800 --> 0:14:41.720 Russell Wilson. Not a murderers row of quarterbacks, So still 0:14:41.720 --> 0:14:45.200 a starting grade for car. Defensively, the Colts defense looks 0:14:45.240 --> 0:14:48.080 immaculate on paper against wide receivers, but the best one 0:14:48.120 --> 0:14:51.200 they faced this year, you pick it's either Christian kirk 0:14:51.280 --> 0:14:54.320 Er Juju Smith Schuster. That's the best wide receiver they've 0:14:54.360 --> 0:14:58.320 seen all year. That's it. That's it. Despite being top 0:14:58.360 --> 0:15:01.240 three in receptions, yards and touch downs allowed to the position, 0:15:01.280 --> 0:15:03.480 I'm going to give Davante Adams an a grade in 0:15:03.520 --> 0:15:06.720 this one. They haven't seen a wide receiver of his caliber. 0:15:06.920 --> 0:15:09.160 And there's no one left to throw too, because Darren 0:15:09.200 --> 0:15:12.160 Waller and Hunter Renfro both hit I R this week. 0:15:12.760 --> 0:15:15.000 Last year when Renfro was the only receiver in town, 0:15:15.320 --> 0:15:18.000 Derek Carr funneled the ball his way all game, and 0:15:18.040 --> 0:15:21.280 Adams is already seeing eleven targets per game. That's about 0:15:21.320 --> 0:15:24.720 to go up sometimes the rest of the receiving games 0:15:24.760 --> 0:15:27.480 on the bench, that includes Mac Hollins, Foster Morrow at 0:15:27.920 --> 0:15:30.360 Thin Hollands, just because there's nobody else left to throw too. 0:15:30.440 --> 0:15:33.600 And I think we're just a bunt of Adams. I think. 0:15:33.840 --> 0:15:35.560 I think if I'm in a pinch in a bye weekend, 0:15:35.600 --> 0:15:37.240 I guess if you if you're in a p there's 0:15:37.280 --> 0:15:39.920 just nobody else to catch a pass. It's true, all right, 0:15:40.400 --> 0:15:43.560 let's take a break when we come back. Nine players 0:15:43.600 --> 0:15:45.520 not normally and you're starting lineup. So many of these 0:15:45.560 --> 0:15:47.600 guys available on the waiver wire. We will tell you 0:15:47.720 --> 0:15:51.120 upon whom you can take a chance when we come 0:15:51.120 --> 0:16:26.200 back to Fantasy Football Weekly. It's a statement called take 0:16:26.240 --> 0:16:29.120 a chance on me, where we give you nine players 0:16:29.680 --> 0:16:31.360 not normally in your starting line up. Many of these 0:16:31.360 --> 0:16:34.960 guys available on the waiver wire. One of mine is 0:16:34.960 --> 0:16:37.400 available on if I'm being honest about it. More for 0:16:37.480 --> 0:16:39.800 you guys, I think Matt who's your take a chance 0:16:39.800 --> 0:16:42.320 to me quarterback? Mine probably not available on the waiver wire, 0:16:42.360 --> 0:16:44.440 but probably on a lot of benches. It's this guy, 0:16:44.560 --> 0:16:46.360 Tom Brady. I don't know if you've ever heard of him. 0:16:46.760 --> 0:16:49.000 Come to this with Tom Brady's thrown more than one 0:16:49.080 --> 0:16:52.800 touchdown in one game this year. Yeah, definitely hasn't put 0:16:52.840 --> 0:16:55.360 up big fantasy days this year. But now he's single, 0:16:55.760 --> 0:16:58.680 ready to mingle. His hair was dyed to shade darker 0:16:58.760 --> 0:17:01.200 this week. Maybe he's got that new lease on life. 0:17:01.400 --> 0:17:04.959 Speaking of lease's, do you see his ex wife bought 0:17:05.000 --> 0:17:10.920 a house across the street. That's weird. I don't think 0:17:10.920 --> 0:17:13.240 Brady is gonna come back for the kids, though easy 0:17:13.320 --> 0:17:15.639 for the kids. He's not coming back from Germany. That 0:17:15.760 --> 0:17:19.080 I won't name the crypto wallet that he endorses, but 0:17:19.119 --> 0:17:26.520 they've suspended withdrawal so Brady after this. Since Week four, 0:17:26.640 --> 0:17:30.320 Brady is quietly averaging three eleven passing yards per game. 0:17:30.800 --> 0:17:33.560 Problem is he hasn't scored for thrown for multiple scores 0:17:33.560 --> 0:17:36.520 in five straight. Enter the Seahawks, who have allowed multiple 0:17:36.520 --> 0:17:40.320 passing touchdowns to Jared Goff, Justin air Bear, and Kyler 0:17:40.400 --> 0:17:43.240 Murray since Week four, and Tom Brady wants to be 0:17:43.280 --> 0:17:46.520 the first quarterback to win in four different countries. He's 0:17:46.600 --> 0:17:49.760 right now tide with three different countries. The other two 0:17:49.840 --> 0:17:55.640 quarterbacks smoking j Cutler and Stu Beard. Wow, I would 0:17:55.680 --> 0:17:59.720 never discuss. I'm trying to. So there's England, there's America, Mehico. 0:18:00.400 --> 0:18:05.440 Al right, the Mexico games. I forgot about those. Okay, Bryan, 0:18:05.480 --> 0:18:08.240 you take a chance at me quarterback. I got Jacoby 0:18:08.320 --> 0:18:11.560 Brissette in a low key revenge game against his former team, 0:18:11.600 --> 0:18:15.919 the Dolphins. But this is the one we're focusing on 0:18:16.000 --> 0:18:18.760 this week. The Dolphins have surrendered the third most passing 0:18:18.800 --> 0:18:22.159 touchdowns this season. Their secondary took a big hit when 0:18:22.160 --> 0:18:25.040 they lost safety Brandon Jones for the year. They will 0:18:25.080 --> 0:18:28.399 remain without starting cornerback Byron Jones, who was dealing with 0:18:28.400 --> 0:18:32.679 an achilles injury, and the loan remaining cornerback Xavian Howard. 0:18:32.760 --> 0:18:35.040 Used to be a shutdown guy, but he looks like 0:18:35.080 --> 0:18:37.400 a shell of his former self. He continued to struggle 0:18:37.480 --> 0:18:41.320 last week, allowing a touchdown to Darnell Mooney in his coverage. 0:18:41.320 --> 0:18:43.840 So I like Jacoby Brissette in a game where Cleveland 0:18:43.880 --> 0:18:46.000 is probably gonna be given up some points and chasing 0:18:46.040 --> 0:18:49.720 them as well. Russell Wilson has been awful so far 0:18:49.800 --> 0:18:52.160 this year, but I think the turnaround starts here. Actually, 0:18:52.200 --> 0:18:54.240 it was pretty actually, pretty good last week in a 0:18:54.280 --> 0:18:57.680 game nobody saw because the kickoff was at five thirty 0:18:57.800 --> 0:19:01.520 a m. On ESPN Plus on Pacific time, so there 0:19:01.600 --> 0:19:04.640 was nobody saw a better game and probably the best 0:19:04.640 --> 0:19:09.199 game from Russell Wilson season before thereby he goes up 0:19:09.240 --> 0:19:12.040 against the Texas. Sorry the Titans this week. They have 0:19:12.040 --> 0:19:14.919 a great run defense, so they're seeing the highest opponent 0:19:15.240 --> 0:19:19.160 passing play percentage and Tennessee is surrendered the third most 0:19:19.200 --> 0:19:22.840 passing touchdowns and for the last six quarterbacks to face, 0:19:22.840 --> 0:19:24.760 the Titans have thrown for at least three hundred yards. 0:19:25.200 --> 0:19:26.920 I don't think Russ is gonna get to three hundred, 0:19:26.960 --> 0:19:29.159 but he might get into that ballpark. Let's go to 0:19:29.160 --> 0:19:30.840 the running back position. Who's gonna take a chance on 0:19:30.880 --> 0:19:33.119 the runner. I'm gonna stay in that same game and 0:19:33.200 --> 0:19:36.080 use Titans running back at don Trell Hilliard. I think 0:19:36.080 --> 0:19:39.520 we've tried Hilliard is a show here like four times. Yeah, 0:19:39.560 --> 0:19:43.359 I think so. The angle is uh, Ryan tann Hill's back, 0:19:43.680 --> 0:19:46.880 and it's impossible to pass against the Broncos unless it's 0:19:46.880 --> 0:19:50.040 coming out of the backfield. Hilliard wasn't targeted targeted very 0:19:50.080 --> 0:19:53.440 much in the Malik Malik Willis starts, but Tannehill looks 0:19:53.440 --> 0:19:55.240 to be back under center this weekend. In the four 0:19:55.280 --> 0:19:58.879 games prior to Tannehill's injury, Hilliard was averaging three receptions 0:19:58.880 --> 0:20:01.760 per game, Derek, he doesn't catch a ton and the 0:20:01.800 --> 0:20:04.359 Broncos allow an average of six catches per game to 0:20:04.440 --> 0:20:07.119 opposing runners. So this is this is a guy on 0:20:07.160 --> 0:20:09.840 your waiver wire. That's a complete dart throw here. Oh, 0:20:09.920 --> 0:20:14.199 don't hit me with that dart. No, No, that was 0:20:14.240 --> 0:20:17.359 the That was the Dontrell Hillier dart throw right there. Brian, 0:20:17.440 --> 0:20:19.920 your take a chance at me running back. I've got 0:20:19.920 --> 0:20:23.080 Pittsburgh's Jalen Warren at home against the Saints. Now, I 0:20:23.119 --> 0:20:26.720 planted my flag and Warren on Monday before the steam started, 0:20:26.760 --> 0:20:30.320 that he could unseat Nagy Harris. There was anti steam later. 0:20:30.400 --> 0:20:35.920 What is that? What's anti steam? That just condensation? Maybe 0:20:38.080 --> 0:20:40.320 I don't know whatever it is. I'm on the steam. 0:20:40.520 --> 0:20:45.600 I'm on the steam side because Warren should be Pittsburgh's 0:20:45.680 --> 0:20:49.280 leading back. He's averaging five point nine yards per touch. 0:20:49.760 --> 0:20:53.119 Harris is averaging three point six yards per touch. So 0:20:53.280 --> 0:20:55.840 four and had the same amount of touches as Nagy Harris, 0:20:56.080 --> 0:20:57.919 he'd have a whole lot more yards. I'll do the 0:20:58.000 --> 0:21:02.560 math for you, like a lot more. And if you 0:21:02.600 --> 0:21:04.760 take away the Saints shut out against the Raiders a 0:21:04.760 --> 0:21:07.080 couple of weeks ago, which was kind of flukey, the 0:21:07.119 --> 0:21:10.320 last four running backs to face New Orleans have average 0:21:10.720 --> 0:21:15.439 compyards and one point three touchdowns per game. So if 0:21:14.560 --> 0:21:17.920 you gotta go, get Jalen Warren, even if you don't 0:21:17.920 --> 0:21:19.560 plan on Sarry, and he should not be a free 0:21:19.560 --> 0:21:22.920 agent at this point. If you have enough steam, I 0:21:22.960 --> 0:21:25.120 was like, I was looking for steam button bar, something 0:21:25.160 --> 0:21:26.639 on the button bar that could be steam. If you 0:21:26.680 --> 0:21:31.760 have enough steam, do you have just water. Yeah, I 0:21:31.800 --> 0:21:34.160 think so that could be our new steam. That could 0:21:34.160 --> 0:21:36.680 be the steams, the sound of steam. You just want 0:21:36.680 --> 0:21:38.880 to use that splash button as much as you can, 0:21:38.920 --> 0:21:46.879 don't you know? Khalil Herbert speaking of so we need 0:21:46.920 --> 0:21:49.560 a steam kettle like a tea like a tea kettle, right, 0:21:49.680 --> 0:21:52.639 isn't that we don't need that? Steam was the name 0:21:52.640 --> 0:21:54.480 of the band that had NOA, noa, noa, hey, hey, 0:21:54.480 --> 0:22:00.240 hey goodbye. So maybe we could have that that I 0:22:00.280 --> 0:22:03.920 believe had no idea. There you go, Khalil ground bear? 0:22:04.119 --> 0:22:07.200 Where was a ground bear? His run for at least 0:22:07.280 --> 0:22:09.680 five two yards per carry in three of his last 0:22:09.680 --> 0:22:12.240 four games, a clip that David Montgomery has had only 0:22:12.280 --> 0:22:15.639
