Speaker 4: Uh might be the last one for my Guanoting League

13
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 4: team with Jacorey Krossky Merritt and Austin Eckler in the

14
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 4: starting lineup. Oh boy, that is gonna be tricky. But hey,

15
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 4: maybe you're in the same spot. We're here to help

16
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 4: you navigate some tough waters. Jayden, maybe you started, Jayden Reid.

17
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:00,200
Speaker 4: If you've got a difficult situation, we are here to help.

18
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 4: We're gonna go through all of the matchups, letter grades

19
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 4: on all the players who matter, will answer three tough questions.

20
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 4: We'll give you nine players upon whom you can take

21
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 4: a chance, and premature speculation. I think we crushed premature

22
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 4: speculation last week. Well, we'll talk about some of the

23
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,679
Speaker 4: players you can pick up now that everybody else is

24
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 4: going to be trying to pick up next week. That's

25
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:25,480
Speaker 4: gonna be great and we can dive right into well, okay,

26
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,679
Speaker 4: well I mentioned Austin Eckler. I think this might be

27
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:32,039
Speaker 4: a career for Austin Eckler. Amazing career. One of the

28
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:35,399
Speaker 4: greatest undrafted running backs in NFL history.

29
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 3: If that is the case, tip of the hat.

30
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:41,919
Speaker 4: For Austin Eckler on a fantastic career and one of

31
00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 4: the most vocal proponents of fantasy football among players.

32
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 5: Yep, yep. He's a really nice guy.

33
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 6: I got to meet and hang out with him a

34
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 6: little bit in Vegas during s FB Live Vegas or

35
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 6: the same weekend of Vegas. That's that's where he's based

36
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 6: in the offseason. Really really nice guy, doing really good

37
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 6: stuff out there.

38
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, and a lot of charity work as well. We

39
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 4: love Austin Eckler, And you know, I hope it's not

40
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,079
Speaker 4: the beginning of the end, but usually the Achilles injury

41
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 4: pretty devastating for an older player. Hopefully it doesn't work

42
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,920
Speaker 4: out that way. Let's go to our first matchup. Scott

43
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 4: it's Buffalo taking on the Jets. These were two of

44
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:23,280
Speaker 4: the best offenses in Week one, Now facing off against

45
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 4: each other, let's start on the Buffalo side.

46
00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 3: No concerns here For Josh Allen, I assume.

47
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 6: No, no, that's that's an automatic A. He's been matchup

48
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 6: proof for years. Let's keep moving his wide receiver stell.

49
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,679
Speaker 6: I do have C grades on two of them, Kean

50
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:41,959
Speaker 6: Coleman and shik Kahiel Shakir. I'm gonna leave Josh Palmer

51
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 6: on the bench. I don't know if I trust it yet.

52
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 2: Uh.

53
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,239
Speaker 6: Where Kean Coleman is concerned, he gets Sas Gardner, who

54
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,720
Speaker 6: for the first time in his career last week shadowed

55
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 6: a wide receiver.

56
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 5: Yes, how about that, he didn't stay on the side.

57
00:02:56,240 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 6: Yeah, he shadowed dk Mtcalffin on all twenty nine under

58
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 6: route allowed one cow yards metcalf went to avoid him

59
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 6: in the slot and got seventy two of his eighty

60
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,079
Speaker 6: three yards of the slot avoided.

61
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 5: So just a se grade on Keon Coleman.

62
00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:18,080
Speaker 6: Hopefully he can move around and avoid Sauce Gardner to

63
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 6: a degree, but he'll probably get peppered with the decent

64
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 6: amount of targets in a high powered offense, so a

65
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 6: C grade there and a grade on Khalil Shakir. The

66
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 6: Jets have been torched in the slot the last year

67
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 6: and a half or so. Michael Carter too used to

68
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 6: be there. He's still their slot guy, but for two

69
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 6: years he was lights out. Last year and in Week

70
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 6: one he's he's a fifty grade PFF type slot receiver.

71
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 6: He has not been good for over a year now.

72
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 3: He was lit up.

73
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 6: It's that's that is a great way to put it.

74
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 6: So I'm giving Khalil Shakir, who also had nine targets

75
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 6: in that in that game last week against the Ravens,

76
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 6: I'm giving him a C grade. Dalton Kincaid's gonna get

77
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 6: the B grade here. He got an end zone target,

78
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 6: scored four catches. Decent game. Dawson Knox is questionable for

79
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 6: this game if he doesn't go even more work. Potentially,

80
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 6: the Jets were fifth worst against tight ends last week,

81
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 6: allowing eight for fifty three and a score to tight ends.

82
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,599
Speaker 6: Last year they allowed a tight end to score and

83
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 6: for their last final five, so this is trending from

84
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:27,720
Speaker 6: last year on the New York Jets. I'm sorry, James Cook,

85
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:31,240
Speaker 6: I almost left out James Cook. B grade for James Cook.

86
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,239
Speaker 6: The last three lead backs to end the year against

87
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 6: the Jets averaged one hundred and one yards, and all

88
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 6: three of them scored last week. Obviously, Jalen Warren scored

89
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,280
Speaker 6: as well. You kind of have to combine the three

90
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,039
Speaker 6: if you want to get what Cooks can get, which

91
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 6: is they combined the three Steelers running backs, you got

92
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 6: eighty yards. James Cook gets everything for the Buffalo Bills.

93
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 6: In fact, I believe Ray Davis had two touches and

94
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 6: nobody else had any touches. James Cook has had that

95
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 6: hamstring injury, but he's practiced in full with it, so

96
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,080
Speaker 6: I have no concerns about him lining up.

97
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 5: Up and playing.

98
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:02,920
Speaker 6: I got a B grade on him. Over to the

99
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 6: New York Jets side, I'm thrown an A grade on

100
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 6: Justin Fields. I feel like he can do similar to

101
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:11,719
Speaker 6: what Lamar Jackson did last week, which was two hundred

102
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:15,480
Speaker 6: passing yards two scores and seventy and a score rushing.

103
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:19,279
Speaker 6: So two and two passing, seventy in a score rushing.

104
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 6: Maybe he's Lamar Jackson light. Maybe it's not as much

105
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:25,599
Speaker 6: of a shootout as that game was, but even on

106
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 6: the light side. That's still probably an A grade or

107
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:28,719
Speaker 6: a low end A.

108
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:32,840
Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah.

109
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 6: And game script should also be in fields favor, as

110
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 6: I expect the Bills to get in front of the Jets,

111
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 6: unlike the Ravens, where the Bills were where the Ravens

112
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 6: were trailing, or where the Ravens were ahead. The only

113
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,920
Speaker 6: wide receiver grade I have is Garrett Well, Garrett Wilson,

114
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 6: he was gonna get. He gets a ton of targets.

115
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 6: We've talked about last week how he's a target hog

116
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 6: in that offense ever since he's been there. He's got

117
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 6: his college teammate throwing him the ball now, and he

118
00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 6: gets a shadow coverage from Christian Benford who shadowed him

119
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,920
Speaker 6: last year. You know what Wilson did in that shadow

120
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:06,359
Speaker 6: coverage last year? Why do tell eight for one hundred

121
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 6: and seven and a touchdown? Wow? So I'm not too

122
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 6: worried about that shadow coverage. Breese Hall is the only

123
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,599
Speaker 6: running back that's getting a B grade for me here.

124
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,719
Speaker 6: He's he was really a belcow Allen only got twenty snaps,

125
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 6: only a couple touches. Defensive tackle Ed Oliver is going

126
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,919
Speaker 6: to be out in the middle for the Bills with

127
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 6: that ankle injury, so he's going to have even more

128
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 6: room to work. Don't expect one hundred and fifty plus

129
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 6: yards and nine nine yards per carry. That's a ridiculous amount.

130
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 6: But the Bills did allow Derrick Henry to run all

131
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 6: over them, and they were sixth worst against backs a

132
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 6: year ago.

133
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 5: So I have a B grade on Breeze Hall.

134
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,039
Speaker 3: All right. I thought Breeshall looked really good.

135
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 4: You know, the whole Jets offense looked better than anybody expected,

136
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 4: I think.

137
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,839
Speaker 3: But seeing Breeze Hall run like he did a few

138
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 3: years ago.

139
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,240
Speaker 6: Yeah, that was That was his high total since late

140
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 6: twenty twenty three.

141
00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:00,919
Speaker 7: Wow, somebody would have highlighted Brice Hall and Garrett Wilson

142
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:04,280
Speaker 7: in their peacock off statements earlier in this preseason.

143
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 3: Oh wait, hold dun, that was you.

144
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 4: And there you go, do man a peacock and you

145
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:12,920
Speaker 4: know I I would I.

146
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 3: Should take the anti peacock.

147
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 4: We have eating We have an eating crow sounder somewhere,

148
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 4: but that I was very very nervous right there. That

149
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 4: is that is the sound of me eating crow on

150
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,000
Speaker 4: this Jets offense at least through one week.

151
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 3: That's it.

152
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,559
Speaker 6: I think you can save the crow eating until after

153
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 6: the ETN comes up, too, though, I think we all cant.

154
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 5: We're all going to.

155
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 3: Get another guy, another guy who look pretty darn good.

156
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:42,240
Speaker 4: Seattle takes on Pittsburgh Matt the Seattle running game. Oh boy,

157
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 4: this has turned epically thorny right here, as Seattle has

158
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 4: got what appears to be an almost dead even fifty

159
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 4: to fifty deadlock between Zach Sharbonay and Kenneth Walker.

160
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's pretty awkward here.

161
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 7: Sharboney got fifty nine percent of the snaps, Walker got

162
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 7: the other forty one percent, and touches were thirteen to

163
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,800
Speaker 7: twelve in favor of Walker, and strangely, Walker got all

164
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 7: the passing work, but Charboney got the inside the five

165
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 7: carry and scored a touchdown. I think we like both

166
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 7: of these runners as a show, and it's clear that

167
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 7: the Seahawks do too, So I think we're probably just

168
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 7: looking at the dreaded fifty to fifty split here, considering

169
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 7: the Jets were very committed to the ground game against

170
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,720
Speaker 7: the Steelers last week and it worked to the tune

171
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 7: of twenty nine total touches one hundred and seventy two

172
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 7: total yards in a score. I think we can fire

173
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 7: up either running back with a C grade here. If

174
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 7: they can cobble together fourteen touches, they'll probably have seaworthy

175
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:38,200
Speaker 7: numbers here.

176
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 6: Only someone in the preseason would have said Charboneau would

177
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 6: overtake Kenneth Walker all adjacent.

178
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:55,080
Speaker 4: Oh we do we come out here olden season for Yeah,

179
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:56,959
Speaker 4: Jackson Smith and Jigba and Sam Darnold.

180
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 7: I'm gonna lump the passing game together and talk about

181
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 7: them as a hole. JSN was targeted on fifty seven

182
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:05,679
Speaker 7: percent of the routes he ran last week. He had

183
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,920
Speaker 7: a fifth nine percent target share and an a dot

184
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 7: of a pretty robust thirteen point six yards. Very Now,

185
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:16,000
Speaker 7: if Sam Darnold just threw thirty times a game and

186
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 7: JSN kept to that pace, he'd have three hundred and

187
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 7: one targets a year. And the all time NFL record

188
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 7: for targets in a year was Marvin Harrison Senior in

189
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 7: two thousand and two with two hundred and five targets.

190
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:32,280
Speaker 7: So he'd smashed that by one hundred targets. Basically, that

191
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,079
Speaker 7: might not happen, Yeah, probably not. All three of Cooper

192
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:38,200
Speaker 7: cut Cups targets came when he ran from the slot,

193
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 7: and five of Jsn's came from the slot. So the

194
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,319
Speaker 7: Steelers played matchups last week and they started having Jalen

195
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 7: Ramsey shadow Garrett Wilson.

196
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:46,560
Speaker 3: Late in the game.

197
00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:48,800
Speaker 7: He had a couple of big plays, but he followed

198
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 7: Garrett Wilson into the slot. Darius Slay and Joey Porter

199
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,320
Speaker 7: Junior are the other corners, and they're not what they

200
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 7: used to be. Porter and Slay neither of them had

201
00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 7: a great game, and Porter's dealing with a hamstring injury

202
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 7: and he might not go. So with Darnold's track record

203
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 7: in Seattle being only twenty three passes a game, i

204
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,079
Speaker 7: gotta put him on the bench. But I'll give jsn

205
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 7: an a grade as he might get all twenty three

206
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:17,840
Speaker 7: passes sent its direction only trusted target cup Tory Horton,

207
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 7: and the rest of the passing game is on the bench.

208
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 7: On the Steelers side, I'll start with Jalen Warren.

209
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 3: He gets a C in this one.

210
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:30,359
Speaker 7: Thirty three yards after contact last week with three forced misstackles.

211
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:33,840
Speaker 7: That's pretty good. Warren looked fine, even though his offensive

212
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,319
Speaker 7: line didn't do him any favors. He also added two

213
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 7: catches for twenty two yards in a receiving score, and

214
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 7: Kenneth Gainwell was involved a little too much for everybody's liking,

215
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 7: with ten touches that was only three fewer than Warren's thirteen.

216
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 7: The matchup is good enough, though, as the Niners backs

217
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:50,680
Speaker 7: combined for one hundred and two on the ground in

218
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 7: one oh nine through the air last week. But we're

219
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,319
Speaker 7: gonna talk a little bit more about this backfield a

220
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 7: bit later in the show. As for the passing game,

221
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 7: I don't want to chase water falls. Aaron Rodgers gets

222
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 7: a C grade off of his four touchdown performance last week.

223
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,319
Speaker 7: I still thought he looked like a forty two year

224
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:08,800
Speaker 7: old with his pocket mobility.

225
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 3: Last week.

226
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,080
Speaker 7: He looked slow, he looked like he didn't want to

227
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,560
Speaker 7: get hit, and the Seahawks were one of the few

228
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 7: teams in the league with multiple interceptions last week. I

229
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 7: kind of liked their corner trio of Devin Witherspoon, Tarik Wolan,

230
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 7: and Josh job Although Witherspoon is nursing an injury and

231
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 7: is probably their most consistent corner. He usually mans the slot, though,

232
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 7: so he'll see Kelvin Austin. If Witherspoon gets ruled out,

233
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 7: I'd move Austin up to a C grade.

234
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:37,080
Speaker 3: But as of now he's on the bench.

235
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:40,560
Speaker 7: But I'm given a big A grade to Dk Metcalf

236
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 7: in the revenge game. If anyone knows these Seattle corners,

237
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 7: it's Metcalf who figures to match up mostly with Tarik

238
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 7: Wollan on the outside. Woolan allowed three catches for seventy

239
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 7: three yards in a score last week on only four targets,

240
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 7: and correct me if I'm wrong, But Rogers seems like

241
00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 7: a guy who likes the revenge and might help his

242
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 7: teammate achieve.

243
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:04,199
Speaker 3: A big box score in this one.

244
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 7: Lastly, I'll throw a C grade on John U Johanu.

245
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 7: The Seahawks allowed two tight end touchdowns last week, and

246
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:15,000
Speaker 7: Arthur Smith loves John H. Smith mostly because they have

247
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,600
Speaker 7: the same last name and they hung out together in

248
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 7: Tennessee for.

249
00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 3: Years and Atlanta for a little while.

250
00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 7: Last week, John Whu had six Aaron Rodgers targets, caught

251
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,880
Speaker 7: five of them for fifteen yards, but most importantly a score.

252
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:30,679
Speaker 7: Firemuth only saw three targets. I think John who has

253
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 7: overtaken Friarmuth as the tight end to have in Pittsburgh.

254
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 3: I thought Aaron Rodgers played pretty well. You know.

255
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, mobility is not his strong suit at this stage,

256
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 4: but I thought he threw well, saw the field, accurate passes.

257
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 4: So yeah, we'll see how that. We'll see how that

258
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,679
Speaker 4: plays out. I'm more optimistic about Rogers than you are.

259
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 4: Cleveland takes on Baltimore now for this game. Script suggests

260
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 4: Cleveland's gonna have to pass a lot in this one.

261
00:12:57,559 --> 00:12:58,560
Speaker 3: And I like Joe Flackle.

262
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,840
Speaker 4: We threw forty five times last week, forty five and

263
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:05,679
Speaker 4: we could get similar usage here. The Ravens secondary is

264
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:09,320
Speaker 4: it's talented, but Josh Allen just threw for four hundred

265
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,560
Speaker 4: yards and two touchdowns against them, So through sheer volume,

266
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 4: Joe Flacco a B grade in this one. And I

267
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 4: like one of his receivers a lot better than the other,

268
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 4: and it's Cedric Tillman.

269
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 3: He might be the best receiver on the team. He's

270
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 3: still available in a ton of leagues. Cedric Tillman.

271
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 4: He ran as many routes and saw as many targets

272
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 4: as Jerry Judy did. And the Ravens cornerbacks play sides,

273
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,679
Speaker 4: and anytime Tillman's on the left, he's going to get

274
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 4: to see Jay r Alexander who was awful in his

275
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 4: debut for Baltimore last week. He ranked as the second

276
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 4: worst cornerback in Week one by Pro Football Focus. Oh hoo,

277
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:51,200
Speaker 4: boy gave up a thirty two yard gain in his coverage.

278
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:54,800
Speaker 4: Cedric Tillman, B grade. Boys, go over to the other

279
00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:59,720
Speaker 4: side of the of the field where you'll find Jerry Judy. Now, sadly,

280
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,240
Speaker 4: you can't talk about Jerry Judy without talking about drops

281
00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:05,880
Speaker 4: he led the NFL. Do you guys want to guess,

282
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 4: Scott Matt how many drops Jerry Judy had last year?

283
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 7: I just said it was league leading twelve. I'll go

284
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 7: thirteen prices right style. Twenty one drops last year by

285
00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 7: Jerry Judy. He had two last week.

286
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:28,520
Speaker 4: One resulted in an interception that probably changed the probably

287
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 4: changed the outcome of the game. So there's that now,

288
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 4: Judy also can we'll be running against Jayry Alexander sometimes

289
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 4: and so he's still playable here. When he's not on

290
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 4: jay Ere's side, it'll be Nate Wigganside, who's not bad,

291
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 4: but he allowed six of seven passes in his coverage

292
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,840
Speaker 4: to be completed. Jerry Judy see great, So let's go

293
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:51,640
Speaker 4: to David Joku and Harold Fannon the tight ends. Fannin

294
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 4: splashed in a huge way in his first NFL game.

295
00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 4: The two of them combined for ten targets one hundred yards.

296
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:04,640
Speaker 4: Fannin got sorry fifteen targets, ten catches. Fannin had nine targets,

297
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:07,560
Speaker 4: and Joku had six. All the other metrics usage metrics

298
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:09,480
Speaker 4: were very close to each other, and I worry about

299
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 4: them cannibalizing each other. But I've got C grades on

300
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 4: both in Joku and Harold Fannon because Baltimore allowed the

301
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 4: second most fantasy points the tight ends last week ninety

302
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:22,200
Speaker 4: seven total yards and a touchdown. The running game, I

303
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 4: do not like Dylan Samson loved the fact that he

304
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 4: had twenty opportunities in his first start and twelve rushes

305
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 4: eight targets. But they'll get Okay, another quiz time for

306
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:38,680
Speaker 4: Scott and Matt. Dylan Samson's average distance of throw on

307
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 4: passes to Dylan Samson. Let's take guesses. Scott, you want

308
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 4: to go first at a dot?

309
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:48,680
Speaker 6: For Dylan Samson, I really, I don't even have a

310
00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 6: I don't even have a clue on this.

311
00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 5: Three yards, five yards, okay, five yards, Matt.

312
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 7: I'll go negative one point five negative three and a

313
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:03,160
Speaker 7: half yards average distance a throw to Dylan Samson.

314
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 3: You can't really recut at any points on eight so

315
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:11,360
Speaker 3: eight yards per catch though.

316
00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 6: Yeah it was good. I was gonna say, that's why

317
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,840
Speaker 6: he had what what do you have? Twenty four yards

318
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 6: on eight catches?

319
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 3: Sixty four yards?

320
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 5: That's what it was.

321
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:22,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, there you go.

322
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,120
Speaker 4: His rushing was bad last week for Dylan Samson and

323
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 4: his ten point underdogs. I worried that there's not gonna

324
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:31,080
Speaker 4: be much rushing to had here. I considered Dylan Samson

325
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 4: a PPR C only and Jerome Ford completely shut down

326
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 4: last week. Baltimore sides a lot easier. Lamar Jackson, Derreck

327
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:41,800
Speaker 4: Henry obvious a grades Zay Flowers with a rare volume

328
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 4: game last week, and that's always been what's held Zay

329
00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:47,840
Speaker 4: Flowers back to didn't get the ball enough. But and

330
00:16:47,920 --> 00:16:50,360
Speaker 4: last week baltimorely through the ball nineteen times. I mean

331
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,640
Speaker 4: so amazing that day Flowers got as much work as

332
00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 4: he did. His Flowers got half of the nineteen passes

333
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 4: and he finished with one hundred and forty three yards,

334
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 4: so much better than the rest of the receis on

335
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 4: that team. Browns did, though, just drop the hammer on

336
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,320
Speaker 4: Jamar Chase, which I can't imagine they're going to be

337
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 4: able to do again here. But I've still got a

338
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 4: B grade on Jay Flowers. He'll get some extra reps

339
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:14,919
Speaker 4: from the slot he can avoid Denzel Ward, find easier

340
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 4: targets like cornerback Miles Harden who's only seen eleven targets

341
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 4: in his NFL career. Zay Flowers with a nice opportunity.

342
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,200
Speaker 4: And the only other Raven to talk about is Mark

343
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 4: Andrews disaster last week and Isaiah likely is practicing and

344
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 4: probably plays in this game.

345
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, so this is this is really tough.

346
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:37,400
Speaker 4: I The good news is Andrews was on the field

347
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 4: for seventy five percent of the snaps, but that was

348
00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 4: without likely And the bad news is the Ravens just

349
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:43,200
Speaker 4: don't pass that much.

350
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 3: So basically his touchdown dependent for Mark Andrews.

351
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,520
Speaker 4: The Browns did give up a touchdown to Noah Fen

352
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 4: last week, and Andrews scored in both Cleveland matchups last year.

353
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:54,440
Speaker 4: So there's your ray of hope and a C grade

354
00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:57,160
Speaker 4: on Mark Andrews, but there is a ton of risk

355
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:01,240
Speaker 4: with him that way. All right, let's take a break,

356
00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:04,000
Speaker 4: would we come back, take a chance on me. Nine

357
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 4: players that are not normally in your starting lineup.

358
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,160
Speaker 3: But should be this week. Find out who they are.

359
00:18:09,520 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 4: Would we come back to Fantasy Football Weekly. Take a

360
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 4: chance on me nine players you would not normally start.

361
00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,679
Speaker 4: Many of these players available on the waiver wire.

362
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:26,919
Speaker 3: Maybe have injury issues.

363
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 4: Maybe you did not draft perfectly and you need to

364
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,880
Speaker 4: find some help. We're gonna give you three quarterbacks, three

365
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 4: running backs, and three receivers, beginning at the quarterback position.

366
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 3: And Scott Fish who you got?

367
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 5: Yeah?

368
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 6: Or maybe you picked this guy up last week when

369
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:42,920
Speaker 6: he was your art Take a chance on me a

370
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,199
Speaker 6: player and he didn't work out, he's still on your bench.

371
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:46,640
Speaker 5: I'm gonna tell.

372
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 6: You put to a tunge i looa to a turn

373
00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:52,919
Speaker 6: the ball back into your lineup this week.

374
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 5: I know it's really bold.

375
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:56,399
Speaker 6: It's tough to do after what he did last week,

376
00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,200
Speaker 6: but he gets a new England defense that just allowed

377
00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:02,200
Speaker 6: three hundred and sixty two yards to Ginos to Gino

378
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:06,120
Speaker 6: Smith and Christian Gonzalez is gonna miss this game. Mike

379
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:09,680
Speaker 6: McDaniel will want to bounce back at home for Miami.

380
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 6: The Patriots allowed pass plays of twenty plus yards nine

381
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 6: times last week.

382
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,359
Speaker 5: Nine times nine passing.

383
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 6: Plays over twenty yards carry Myers for going down in

384
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:26,080
Speaker 6: nineteen yards to make sure nine times. Two had three

385
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,359
Speaker 6: hundred plus yards in three of his final five last

386
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:30,840
Speaker 6: last year. And the Dolphins also always seemed to play

387
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 6: better at home versus New England.

388
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,119
Speaker 5: So put two back in there. I know it's bold,

389
00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:35,760
Speaker 5: but you should do it.

390
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 4: That goes back to the Belichick era right there. Dolphins

391
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:41,119
Speaker 4: always played Belichick harder than anybody expected.

392
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 3: Matt, you're taking chance on me quarterback.

393
00:20:43,880 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 7: I've got Mac Jones because brock Party was downgraded to

394
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:50,640
Speaker 7: doubtful with a turf toe variant injury and reports say

395
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:52,679
Speaker 7: that he's going to probably miss a few weeks. Center

396
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 7: Michael mccorkyl Jones, who I totally forgot, started eight games

397
00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 7: last year for the painful games. Yes, what's good about

398
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 7: Mac Jones. He's generally pretty accurate. He's been slightly above

399
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:08,560
Speaker 7: sixty five percent completion percentage on his career. What's better,

400
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 7: This is the best situation offensively Mack has ever been

401
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:12,680
Speaker 7: a part of.

402
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 3: And it's not even close.

403
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 7: Kyle Shanahan system with Christian McCaffrey, a pretty decent O line,

404
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:21,280
Speaker 7: a handful of above average receivers and a soft landing

405
00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:24,679
Speaker 7: spot against the Saints. Six of the last seven quarterbacks

406
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 7: who face the Saints have thrown at least two touchdown

407
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,800
Speaker 7: passes a game. Wow, and in those seven games, the

408
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:34,359
Speaker 7: Saints only registered two total interceptions.

409
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:36,920
Speaker 3: I like your contrarian angle.

410
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:39,840
Speaker 4: I am going with the aforementioned Gino Smith taking on

411
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,639
Speaker 4: the Chargers. Scott told you about the three hundred sixty

412
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:46,480
Speaker 4: two yards last week, second only to Josh Allen, and

413
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:50,600
Speaker 4: Vegas suddenly has got like a plethora of publausible receivers

414
00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:53,200
Speaker 4: even with brock Bauers not expected to play a lot

415
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 4: of options.

416
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:56,760
Speaker 3: The chargers rebuilt secondary.

417
00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 4: Looks out out the middle of the pack to me,

418
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 4: and I love the individual matchups for Kobe Myers and

419
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,440
Speaker 4: Trey Tucker, and I'm gonna tell you about those later

420
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 4: in the show. The Chargers have shut out just one

421
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:10,959
Speaker 4: of their last eleven opposing quarterbacks. Gino Smith's gonna get

422
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 4: you at least one and probably more touchdowns this week.

423
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,640
Speaker 4: Let's go to the running back position, Scott, who you got.

424
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,639
Speaker 6: I'm going with Trey Benson, and it's not because I

425
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 6: think he's truly gonna really work into James Connor's workload.

426
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,679
Speaker 6: I watched that game. He got one play in the

427
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:30,639
Speaker 6: first quarter spelling Connor. He got a couple on the

428
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:34,840
Speaker 6: next drive, spelling Connor basically no yards. He had that

429
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:37,640
Speaker 6: huge fifty two yarder, and then after that he had

430
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 6: one series in the fourth where he was like three

431
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,880
Speaker 6: carries for eight yards. It's not like he's taking over

432
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:47,200
Speaker 6: that role, like a splitting of the job, but he

433
00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:50,960
Speaker 6: does spell Connor. Now he's taken all of Amaro Dermarcado

434
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 6: Amar de Marcado's passing snaps from last year, so he's

435
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,560
Speaker 6: playing in the passing game and the Cardinals are almost

436
00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:59,480
Speaker 6: touchdown favorites here. There should be a good amount of

437
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 6: workload for him to not just spell Connor, but maybe

438
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 6: play at the end of the game where he was

439
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 6: successful last year.

440
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 3: I always have a lost spelling Connor. Yeah, r E

441
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 3: R R. Yeah.

442
00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:14,320
Speaker 4: It's really tough. One end, two ends, three ends. I mean,

443
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:17,560
Speaker 4: you know, it could go could go any direction again too,

444
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:23,360
Speaker 4: Like that's Connor Connor on our like a like a joke.

445
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 4: We we do need a piratey addition a Fantasy Football weekly.

446
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:30,240
Speaker 3: Matt, You're take a chance to be running back I've.

447
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:34,080
Speaker 7: Got Nick Chubb versus the Buccaneers.

448
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:36,440
Speaker 3: That worked out pretty well.

449
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:39,200
Speaker 7: Let's sell it the fact that the Bucks defense gave

450
00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:42,080
Speaker 7: up one hundred and forty eight total yards and a

451
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:46,040
Speaker 7: score to the Falcons running back tandem last week. But Matt,

452
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,840
Speaker 7: that was bijon and Nick Chubb is old and slow,

453
00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:55,200
Speaker 7: not so fat, and actually Nick Chubb may still be fast.

454
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:59,840
Speaker 7: Nick Chubb was fourth in PFF's Elusive rating last week

455
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 7: and created a league high five forced misstackles on all

456
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:08,680
Speaker 7: that attempts to play well of the Texans is shaky

457
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:10,399
Speaker 7: at best. So in order to keep the Bucks on

458
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:12,720
Speaker 7: their toes, they're probably gonna need to run the ball

459
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:14,320
Speaker 7: a lot in this one. So I'll fire up some

460
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 7: Nick Chubb. I was gonna give him a B grade

461
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:18,120
Speaker 7: this week, a double B grade.

462
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:20,960
Speaker 4: I hope you're right, because Nick Chubb, it's great to

463
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:24,120
Speaker 4: see Nick Chubb running well again like he did last week.

464
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,360
Speaker 4: Why the Texans offensive line is gonna be missing their

465
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 4: starting center?

466
00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:30,640
Speaker 3: That worries me in this game? And it is.

467
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,120
Speaker 4: It is a good Bucks run defense, but still I'm

468
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:35,320
Speaker 4: kind of listening a little bit to what you're saying

469
00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:38,800
Speaker 4: there on Chubb. I'm going with through Andre Stevenson going

470
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,640
Speaker 4: up against Miami, which is part of it. In Week one,

471
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:45,440
Speaker 4: Stevenson had double the snaps of Trayvon Henderson, had two

472
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:47,439
Speaker 4: more carries and even had three targets. I think a

473
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:50,280
Speaker 4: lot of people thought once Henderson got there, Stevenson wouldn't

474
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 4: get three targets all year. He got him in Week one,

475
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:57,359
Speaker 4: and surprisingly Stevenson had twice as many snaps in long

476
00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:01,119
Speaker 4: down and distance. So really every situation Stevenson was on

477
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:04,160
Speaker 4: the field now, it only ended up totally twenty seven

478
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,960
Speaker 4: yards last week. So I you know, I'm putting lipstick

479
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:09,120
Speaker 4: on a pig a little bit, But here comes Miami.

480
00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:10,720
Speaker 3: That is your pig.

481
00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:15,920
Speaker 4: Is Miami Dolphins ranked thirty first in tackling by Pro

482
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 4: Football Focus in week number one, and the Colts just

483
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:24,879
Speaker 4: ram the ball forty times against the Dolphins, one hundred

484
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:29,560
Speaker 4: and fifty six rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns against Miami.

485
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,479
Speaker 4: All right, let's go to our wide receivers, Scott and

486
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:33,640
Speaker 4: or tight ends Scott.

487
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:36,920
Speaker 6: Yeah good, I'm glad you added that, because I'm taking

488
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:39,320
Speaker 6: the tight end in Brenton's strange tight end for the

489
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,960
Speaker 6: Jacksonville Jaguars. It's getting hard not to recognize the four

490
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:44,920
Speaker 6: for fifty nine he had last week and all this

491
00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:48,120
Speaker 6: he had three or four really decent days when Evan

492
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:51,160
Speaker 6: Ingram missed time last year. He's really starting to feel

493
00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:54,440
Speaker 6: like a matchup play and this is a good matchup.

494
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,159
Speaker 6: Last week, the Browns tight ends went ten catches for

495
00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 6: one hundred yards on the Bengals, and a year ago

496
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,479
Speaker 6: the be were the worst team against tight ends out

497
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:06,840
Speaker 6: allowing the most receptions, second most scords, and third most yards.

498
00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:10,760
Speaker 6: It clearly carried over into this year. Good matchup for

499
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:12,239
Speaker 6: Brenton Strange.

500
00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 4: You talk, man, I'm moving Brenton Strange up my rankings

501
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:18,000
Speaker 4: right now. I like the sound of that. Matt, You'll

502
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:19,159
Speaker 4: take a chance on your receiver.

503
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,880
Speaker 7: It's Wandale Robinson, the wide receiver for the Giants. He's

504
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 7: playing against the Dallas Cowboys this week. It's worth noting

505
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:28,000
Speaker 7: he was limited in practiced this week with an ankle injury,

506
00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:31,959
Speaker 7: but did participate Thursday and Friday, So he's only rostered

507
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 7: on twenty six percent of sleeper leagues right now, and

508
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 7: listen to these numbers. Malik Neighbors was targeted thirteen times

509
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 7: last week. Wandale was targeted eight and the rest of

510
00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:46,800
Speaker 7: the wide receivers combined from one target right. So it's

511
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 7: Wandale who led their Giants in receptions last week with

512
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:53,080
Speaker 7: six too. He's clearly the second option in that offense,

513
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,680
Speaker 7: and that offense needs to get going. By the way,

514
00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,439
Speaker 7: he plays the slot most of the time. Cowboys slot

515
00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 7: corner Deron Bland, he's out, somebody's gonna take a spot.

516
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:06,040
Speaker 7: Guess who it is? Ready Stewart, who is a guy

517
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:10,159
Speaker 7: I totally did not make up Ready Stewart. He's a

518
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 7: second year player on his third NFL team with a

519
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:17,359
Speaker 7: total of eleven snaps in his career.

520
00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:21,960
Speaker 4: Wow, this is a great I love this angle. That

521
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:25,439
Speaker 4: is a that is a nice play receptions, especially Wandell

522
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 4: Robinson could be sitting on eight an eight reception game.

523
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:30,200
Speaker 3: I love that. Nice job.

524
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:34,399
Speaker 4: I am going with Chargers wide receiver Quinn Johnson.

525
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:36,159
Speaker 3: I know, like Johnson, where were you know? Where was

526
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 3: this last week?

527
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 4: Which is totally fair, by the way, where was this

528
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:41,720
Speaker 4: last week? But he had such a promising Week one

529
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:44,719
Speaker 4: He ran as many or more snaps and routes as

530
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:47,800
Speaker 4: Lad McConkie and Keenan Allen and get this, no drops

531
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:51,920
Speaker 4: no drops in a whole game for Quentin Johnson. Johnston

532
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 4: already has notched two end zone targets in the first week,

533
00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:03,240
Speaker 4: scored twice, and Las vegas rebuilt secondary looks like hot garbage. Matt,

534
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:07,679
Speaker 4: this one is for you. The Raiders best ranked cornerback,

535
00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:14,320
Speaker 4: best ranked cornerback. Somebody called Kayu blue Kelly.

536
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:15,359
Speaker 3: You made that.

537
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:19,240
Speaker 6: Now up for sure it isn't. He isn't because I

538
00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:20,960
Speaker 6: mentioned him last week on the show.

539
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,159
Speaker 3: I know the cornerbacks are not real people.

540
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:28,680
Speaker 4: Yes, Now, to be clear, Kyu Blue Kelly is not

541
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:31,520
Speaker 4: two people and there's no verbs involved in that. That

542
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 4: is all one person's name. The three starting Pro Football

543
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:40,240
Speaker 4: Focus ranked cornerbacks for Las Vegas ranked thirty seventh, eighty eighth,

544
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 4: and one hundred and ninth. So Quentin Johnston is our

545
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:47,560
Speaker 4: final I need a take shirt that says cornerbacks aren't real.

546
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 3: You made that up. You made that up. Let's work

547
00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:53,120
Speaker 3: in one more matchup.

548
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:57,480
Speaker 4: Jacksonville taking on Cincinnati Scott for the Jaguars. A pretty

549
00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:02,600
Speaker 4: inauspicious start, and I'm really into in, uh your thoughts

550
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 4: about the running game.

551
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 3: Now the tank Bigsby's gone, I.

552
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:06,800
Speaker 5: Mean we can start there.

553
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,520
Speaker 6: I have a B grade on s travesty An even

554
00:29:09,560 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 6: with El Bigsby. He I mean there were come on,

555
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:15,240
Speaker 6: there were rumors of trading Bigsby ETN for a while,

556
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 6: and then it was Biggsby for a while, and it

557
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:17,600
Speaker 6: turned out.

558
00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:18,760
Speaker 5: To be bigs Uh.

559
00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 6: Etn led all run led all running backs in rushing

560
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:25,160
Speaker 6: yards over expectation per attempt last week and second in

561
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:29,240
Speaker 6: yards per carry behind Derreck, Henry h Lequent Allen and

562
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:31,600
Speaker 6: base Shall. Teuton are going to get a slight bump,

563
00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:34,920
Speaker 6: but really like Allen's the password guy and Touton's more

564
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:38,760
Speaker 6: of the runner, and they're really just small, tiny backup roles.

565
00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 6: We all kind of really missed that He's he looks

566
00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:43,960
Speaker 6: a lot like that same running back that was RB

567
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:47,640
Speaker 6: three in twenty twenty three. Yes, and maybe him beat

568
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,080
Speaker 6: on the injury report for almost every game last year

569
00:29:50,320 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 6: was legitimately a factor. So so now we know he

570
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:57,360
Speaker 6: pops up at an injury report later this year, we

571
00:29:57,400 --> 00:29:58,840
Speaker 6: know that he has bail.

572
00:29:59,320 --> 00:29:59,800
Speaker 5: Bail.

573
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:04,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, ETN went with when Etn's cooking, he just glides.

574
00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:06,600
Speaker 4: You know, the speed is there when he you know,

575
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,800
Speaker 4: when he is playing well, which hasn't been often, he

576
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:12,000
Speaker 4: does look like a difference maker in that offense, and

577
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 4: I can understand why he was the workhorse.

578
00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:16,640
Speaker 5: Back yeah last year.

579
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:18,800
Speaker 6: Last year, the at the end of the last year,

580
00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:22,640
Speaker 6: his the etn's opponent. The Bengals allowed a decent amount

581
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:26,760
Speaker 6: of not just Russian work, but receiving yards to backs

582
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:29,520
Speaker 6: over the second half ETN can receive the ball. In

583
00:30:29,560 --> 00:30:33,200
Speaker 6: Week one, they only allowed two yards per carry twenty

584
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:35,960
Speaker 6: one for forty. So I'm only giving ETN the B

585
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:38,720
Speaker 6: grade here just because the matchup. It seems like they're

586
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 6: pretty good last week, and there was you know, middle

587
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:44,440
Speaker 6: of the pack last year. In the passing game, I

588
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:47,200
Speaker 6: have a C grade on Trevor Lawrence, who threw for

589
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:50,960
Speaker 6: less than two hundred yards last week, But the Bengals

590
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:53,480
Speaker 6: just gave up two hundred and ninety to Joe Flacco

591
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 6: and ended the year last year with six multi score

592
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 6: games in their final eight. They were sixth worst against

593
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:03,240
Speaker 6: fantasy quarterbacks over their last eight games as well, including

594
00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:06,480
Speaker 6: this year, the Bengals only blitzed on four percent of

595
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:08,360
Speaker 6: their plays as well, so Lawrence should have a little

596
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 6: bit of time back there, not to mention the game

597
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:13,560
Speaker 6: script of them falling behind the Bengals is very is

598
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:16,080
Speaker 6: a very likely play that he'll need to pass. So

599
00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:18,760
Speaker 6: I have an A grade on Brian Thomas Junior, who

600
00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:21,440
Speaker 6: I know had a terrible week last week. He saved

601
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 6: you with the rug in touchdown, but even stud wide

602
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:28,719
Speaker 6: receivers have duds, and he still had seven targets. Lawrence

603
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:31,520
Speaker 6: only had four completions over fifteen yards. I'm sure he'll

604
00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:34,880
Speaker 6: look deeper a little bit more this this week. Both

605
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,840
Speaker 6: Tillman and Judy against the Bengal team last week had

606
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 6: decent games and it's one of the highest overrunners of

607
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:44,040
Speaker 6: the week. Brian Thomas will get Cam Taylor Britt, who

608
00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 6: allowed a one to fifteen point nine passer rating against

609
00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,120
Speaker 6: last year and this year is ranked one hundred and

610
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:53,080
Speaker 6: sixth of one hundred and thirteen quarterbacks so far through

611
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:57,800
Speaker 6: one game. Though it's just one game, let's keep an

612
00:31:57,800 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 6: eye on that. I have a C grade on Travis Hunter.

613
00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:04,480
Speaker 6: Six of his eight targets were inside five feet. It's

614
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:07,840
Speaker 6: similar similar to your Dylan Sampson's said, Yes, he was.

615
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 6: He was playing mostly slot, which we know he can

616
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 6: play outside. He can go outside, but he was playing

617
00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:16,880
Speaker 6: mostly slot and it was designed quick slants. To him

618
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:18,920
Speaker 6: most of that, Like, that's a lot of what he saw,

619
00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:21,320
Speaker 6: So that's why he only had thirty three yards on

620
00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:24,320
Speaker 6: six catches. Hard to be productive there. We've seen Deantay

621
00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:27,280
Speaker 6: Johnson and Juju Smith Schuster be productive with that kind

622
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 6: of role. But I expect his role to expand. Not

623
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,560
Speaker 6: a true slot guy, so I think his role will expand.

624
00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 6: C grade there. He should get some volume and Brenton

625
00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:39,640
Speaker 6: Strache was might take a chance on me player. So

626
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,640
Speaker 6: over on the Cincinnati side, I have an A grade

627
00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:45,960
Speaker 6: on Joe Burrow. I know it wasn't as great last week,

628
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:50,960
Speaker 6: but we're one yeard. Yes, yeah, we're one We're one

629
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:53,800
Speaker 6: year removed from the Jaguars being the worst pass d

630
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:57,800
Speaker 6: in almost every category and allowing by four by far

631
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 6: the most twenty plus yard explosive plays. I think Cincinnati

632
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:04,480
Speaker 6: can take advantage of that. Burrow had eight multi score

633
00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:06,640
Speaker 6: games in his last nine games to end the year

634
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:09,040
Speaker 6: last year. He'll bounce back. So I got an A

635
00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:13,320
Speaker 6: grade on Jamar Chase as well. Interesting note on Jamar

636
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 6: Chase last week, the lowest amount of average separation per

637
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:17,200
Speaker 6: target in the NFL.

638
00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:18,720
Speaker 5: Wow, Jamar Chase.

639
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:23,600
Speaker 6: That's last never I know not getting separation, but I

640
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:27,120
Speaker 6: expect that to rebound as well. He gets Tyson Campbell,

641
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:30,360
Speaker 6: who's thirty third among cornerbacks on PFF, but he had

642
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:32,440
Speaker 6: a one oh seven pass rating last year, so that

643
00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 6: thirty third might be a one week variation of him.

644
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:39,160
Speaker 6: T Higgins is getting a B grade. They're the only

645
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:42,120
Speaker 6: wide receivers that even got a target for the Bengals

646
00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 6: last year, so they should get a lot of volume

647
00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,280
Speaker 6: if Burrows numbers tick up, So a B grade for

648
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 6: t Higgins. He's got a tougher match up against Jerry

649
00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 6: and Jones, who had a thirty four point two coverage

650
00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 6: grade last week.

651
00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 5: No offense on the bench. I don't think I need

652
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:55,160
Speaker 5: to go over it.

653
00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:57,800
Speaker 6: But even though he scored the touchdown, the other two

654
00:33:57,840 --> 00:33:59,880
Speaker 6: tight nds out snapped him and got more red zone.

655
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:05,280
Speaker 6: He just got the touchdown. And Chase Brown churches Chase Brown.

656
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:07,320
Speaker 5: Can I call that you?

657
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 3: Ken?

658
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:10,520
Speaker 4: Absolutely hell. I'm very happy to be associated with Chase Brown.

659
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:13,800
Speaker 6: No other running back hatdoch for the Bengals. How to carry?

660
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 6: Panthers running backs went over one hundred and a score

661
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,600
Speaker 6: in this matchup last week. Eight of the final ten

662
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:22,560
Speaker 6: that lead backs against the Jags. Eight of the final

663
00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:26,279
Speaker 6: ten went for one hundred plus and scored twelve times.

664
00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:29,640
Speaker 6: What's a lot of volume from lead backs going against

665
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,480
Speaker 6: the Jaguars. So I have an a grade on Chase Brown.

666
00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:36,960
Speaker 4: He is my number four ranked running back for this week.

667
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:40,400
Speaker 4: When we come back, we've got another block of matchups

668
00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:43,439
Speaker 4: for you with Brock Purty out. Which forty nine ers

669
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:47,279
Speaker 4: can you trust to keep Piersoll in a second consecutive game,

670
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:51,400
Speaker 4: Dwon Jennings dragging a limb behind him and a shoulder.

671
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:54,000
Speaker 3: What are you going to do with your forty nine ers?

672
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:57,120
Speaker 3: Find out when we come back to Fantasy Football Weekly.

673
00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:21,720
Speaker 2: Welcome back Football.

674
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:24,480
Speaker 4: Weekly, Paul Chearchy and Scott Fish, Matt Harrison with you.

675
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:29,080
Speaker 4: Let's get you another block of matchups beginning in San Francisco. No,

676
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:32,040
Speaker 4: brock Purty, Mac Jones will be your starter, and he was, Matt,

677
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:34,600
Speaker 4: he was your take a chance on me quarterback.

678
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:38,080
Speaker 3: So which of your his receiving options do you like

679
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:38,719
Speaker 3: in this game?

680
00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:42,520
Speaker 7: I mean his best receiving options probably Christian McCaffrey, who had.

681
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,960
Speaker 3: Ten target any, two Russian.

682
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:48,920
Speaker 7: Attempts, thirty two touches last week. He had a perfect

683
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:52,239
Speaker 7: Fantasy Life utilization score of one hundred, so he's an

684
00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:55,520
Speaker 7: obvious A grade. With George Kittle out for at least

685
00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:58,960
Speaker 7: four weeks, some of flecked to Jake Tanjas as an option,

686
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:01,440
Speaker 7: as he did have a touchdown last week in relief

687
00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 7: of Kittle, but as my eleventh grade social studies teacher,

688
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:10,000
Speaker 7: mister Soderholm would say, well, I wouldn't. I'm not going

689
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:12,239
Speaker 7: with Ton. Just too many variables with a.

690
00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,760
Speaker 3: Backup quarterback and a backup.

691
00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:16,160
Speaker 7: Tight end, and the Saints have only allowed two tight

692
00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:19,439
Speaker 7: end touchdowns in their last eighteen games, so I don't

693
00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:21,760
Speaker 7: like that. I'll throw a C grade on both Ricky

694
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:24,920
Speaker 7: Pearsall and Juwan Jennings. Pearsall looked like wide receiver one

695
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:27,640
Speaker 7: last week with seven targets four catches in one oh eight,

696
00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:31,400
Speaker 7: and a handful of teams actually dropped Juwan Jennings after

697
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:34,439
Speaker 7: only two catches for sixteen yards in Week one and

698
00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:37,160
Speaker 7: a questionable tag, but CHARGE will tell you that that

699
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:41,080
Speaker 7: is a big mistake. Jennings will match up with slot

700
00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:45,799
Speaker 7: corner Alante Taylor, who played nearly every coverage snap for

701
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:48,480
Speaker 7: the Saints last year and had a one hundred and

702
00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:51,920
Speaker 7: seventeen point nine passer rating. In his coverage and a

703
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:56,560
Speaker 7: thirty five point four miserable PFF grade. Pearsall does flex

704
00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:58,600
Speaker 7: into the slot as well as San fran moves their

705
00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:02,080
Speaker 7: receivers all over the formation, but C grades are there

706
00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:04,799
Speaker 7: because there's some risk that McCaffrey just runs away with

707
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,799
Speaker 7: everything in the passing game and the running game. On

708
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,560
Speaker 7: the Saints side, I got three guys I feel like

709
00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 7: you can start first, Juwan Jennings, who got a whopping

710
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:17,759
Speaker 7: ninety seven score on Fantasy Life's Utilization Mentor. He was

711
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:20,239
Speaker 7: on the field for all but one snap, He ran

712
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:23,200
Speaker 7: a route on all but one pass play, and was

713
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:26,000
Speaker 7: targeted on twenty three percent of his routes and had

714
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,960
Speaker 7: thirty percent of the Saints' air yards, which tight ends

715
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,680
Speaker 7: don't normally do. And this is a team with Olave

716
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:35,000
Speaker 7: and Rashis Shaheed and Brandon Cooks. So I'm giving Juwan

717
00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:39,440
Speaker 7: Johnson an A grade. The Niner shutout the Seahawks tight

718
00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:44,440
Speaker 7: ends last week, hey Lan House tight ends last year,

719
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:48,440
Speaker 7: Laporta McBride, Kraft McBride again, and John U. John who

720
00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:50,840
Speaker 7: all had pretty decent days against San Francisco.

721
00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:54,600
Speaker 6: Triplett's been talking about Juwan Johnson for years in New Orleans,

722
00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:56,440
Speaker 6: saying they really want to get him involved.

723
00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:59,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I talked about them all preseason this.

724
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:00,440
Speaker 1: I mean.

725
00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:04,399
Speaker 5: The last like three years. He's like, but he can't

726
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:04,960
Speaker 5: stay healthy.

727
00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:08,840
Speaker 7: Well, the reports of the death of Chris o'lave have

728
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:12,360
Speaker 7: been greatly exaggerated. He saw thirteen targets last week and

729
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:15,320
Speaker 7: thirty three percent of the air yard, so Spencer Ratler

730
00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:19,240
Speaker 7: was looking at two options, Johnson and Olave, which sounds

731
00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:22,040
Speaker 7: more like a skin a stringent than a pair of receivers.

732
00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:25,799
Speaker 7: It seems like the Faith would try to attack a

733
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:29,799
Speaker 7: slot corner Upton Stout, which is also on tap right

734
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:35,040
Speaker 7: now at my local proof. Olave ran most of the

735
00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:39,080
Speaker 7: slot routes against the Saints. For the Saints wide receivers

736
00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:42,040
Speaker 7: last week, he should be on Stout the most, and

737
00:38:42,080 --> 00:38:46,200
Speaker 7: the outside corners Diamador Lenore and Ronardo Green they're both

738
00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:48,680
Speaker 7: above average. So it's a B grade for Olave and

739
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:52,759
Speaker 7: bench grades for Shaheed and Cooks and Spencer Rattler. And

740
00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:57,080
Speaker 7: finally it's Alvin Kamara whose death might not have been exaggerated.

741
00:38:57,719 --> 00:38:59,839
Speaker 7: He did get a touchdown last week, but only saw

742
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:04,160
Speaker 7: thirteen total touches and he averaged twenty one touches per

743
00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:06,360
Speaker 7: game last year. Now, it's only a one game sample,

744
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:10,920
Speaker 7: but he only saw that little work twice in games

745
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:13,840
Speaker 7: last year. But the old man might still have it.

746
00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:16,680
Speaker 7: He ranked third amongst running backs last week in PFF's

747
00:39:16,719 --> 00:39:20,160
Speaker 7: Elusive Rating, and San Francisco's run d is okay at best.

748
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:22,919
Speaker 7: And we're actually quite bad last year allowing the most

749
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 7: rushing touchdowns in the league to opposing backs. I'm gonna

750
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,640
Speaker 7: give Kamara B grade here. Let's call week one of Fluke,

751
00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:31,160
Speaker 7: and if a Saints running back is gonna get a touchdown,

752
00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:32,240
Speaker 7: it's probably Alvin.

753
00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:36,320
Speaker 4: The Bears take on the Lions, and I want to

754
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:39,120
Speaker 4: start with Roma Doonsay, who led the team in snaps, routes,

755
00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:43,440
Speaker 4: runs and targets, and Ben Jonson giving that kid every

756
00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:47,000
Speaker 4: opportunity to break out in his sophomore season, and it

757
00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:49,960
Speaker 4: could happen here. In the offseason, the Lions brought into

758
00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:52,440
Speaker 4: lead cornerback DJ Reid, and we talked about this earlier,

759
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:54,959
Speaker 4: how Sauce Gardner always played one side and Read always

760
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:57,799
Speaker 4: played the other side, and then they had Sauce for

761
00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:00,839
Speaker 4: the Jets ended up shadowing. DJ Reid played both sides

762
00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:05,120
Speaker 4: of the field and got roasted last week. Gave up

763
00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:08,319
Speaker 4: four or five passes completions in his coverage. I like

764
00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:10,640
Speaker 4: Roma Dunze with a B grade here, Still like DJ

765
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:13,279
Speaker 4: Moore and all the weird ways he was used on

766
00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 4: Monday Night against the Vikings. He took snaps at every

767
00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:19,799
Speaker 4: receiver position plus three snaps in the backfield as a

768
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:22,520
Speaker 4: running back. By the way, he might be the team's

769
00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:27,200
Speaker 4: best running back. DJ Moore used downfield eighteen yards per target.

770
00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:28,200
Speaker 3: Like that too.

771
00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:30,759
Speaker 4: I've got a B grade on him as well. And

772
00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:33,400
Speaker 4: if I like those two guys, I must like Caleb Williams.

773
00:40:33,640 --> 00:40:36,440
Speaker 4: He gave you the scrambling, so that was super helpful.

774
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:39,680
Speaker 4: Fifty eight rushing yards and a rushing touchdown finished as

775
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:42,400
Speaker 4: running back nine thanks to that. The passing still obviously

776
00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:45,560
Speaker 4: a work in process, but still I like the matchup

777
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:47,000
Speaker 4: enough where Williams is startable.

778
00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:49,320
Speaker 3: I've got a C grade on him.

779
00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:54,400
Speaker 6: Williams, Yeah, I do number one in off target throws

780
00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:59,280
Speaker 6: last week for the in the NFL. What Yeah, highest

781
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:01,000
Speaker 6: percentage of target throws.

782
00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:03,760
Speaker 3: That does not surprise me honestly watching that game.

783
00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:06,279
Speaker 4: I don't know if that counts as a number one

784
00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:09,520
Speaker 4: ranking or a number thirty two ranking, but yes, uh

785
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:13,240
Speaker 4: Cola Comet, olamedes A Kaias, Colson Love and Luthen Burden

786
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:15,960
Speaker 4: not on the field enough to matter, and the running

787
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:20,360
Speaker 4: game DeAndre Swift was bad. That running game never came together.

788
00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:23,520
Speaker 4: The Lions run defense great last week. They held Josh

789
00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:26,719
Speaker 4: Jacobs to three point four yards per carry, and they

790
00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:28,839
Speaker 4: were good last year too, only one one hundred yard

791
00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:32,279
Speaker 4: rusher all last season despite all the defensive injuries they had.

792
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 4: I can only get you to a C on DeAndre Swift,

793
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:36,520
Speaker 4: and I don't even like that. But nobody else, no

794
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:38,799
Speaker 4: other running back got to carry, so we'll take him

795
00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:42,200
Speaker 4: a C grade. On the Detroit side, I'm on ross

796
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,400
Speaker 4: Aint Brown with a bounce back game coming. He was

797
00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:49,200
Speaker 4: very quiet week one, but it looks like Chicago's excellent

798
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:51,920
Speaker 4: slot corner Kyler Gordon is going to miss the game

799
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:54,560
Speaker 4: and Saint Brown is going to be pelted with targets

800
00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:56,320
Speaker 4: out of the slot. I love him with an A

801
00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:59,880
Speaker 4: grade here. Jamiir Gibbs also obvious A grade. Some of

802
00:41:59,880 --> 00:42:01,480
Speaker 4: the the other guys are a little trickier, but I

803
00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:04,640
Speaker 4: still like him in a bounce back spot, including Sam Laporta.

804
00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:08,239
Speaker 4: Chicago was basically unchallenged to tight end last week by

805
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:12,759
Speaker 4: TJ Hockinson and the Vikings. TJ only had four short targets.

806
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:15,560
Speaker 4: Laporta is going to see more balls than that. Laport

807
00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:18,920
Speaker 4: ranked fourth among all tight ends and utilizations score in

808
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:21,200
Speaker 4: Week one, and he accounted for twenty percent of the

809
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:24,120
Speaker 4: team's targets and air yards. So I like Laporta in

810
00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:26,880
Speaker 4: a bounce back for a Bee. Jamison Williams on the

811
00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:30,120
Speaker 4: field all game last week, and you'll see a lot

812
00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:34,880
Speaker 4: of star cornerback Jalen Johnson, who should return now. Williams

813
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:37,680
Speaker 4: had a gigantic game last time these teams met in

814
00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:41,120
Speaker 4: Week sixteen, one hundred and forty three yards in a score.

815
00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:43,680
Speaker 4: But this is a tough matchup and Williams has always

816
00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:46,040
Speaker 4: been an all or nothing fantasy provider.

817
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:48,080
Speaker 3: I've got a B grade on him here.

818
00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:50,880
Speaker 4: But there is a risk reward scenario for him and

819
00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:54,440
Speaker 4: staying with the passing game for Jared Goff, I'd like

820
00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 4: him more if the if Jalen Johnson were gonna miss,

821
00:42:57,600 --> 00:43:00,239
Speaker 4: But with Jalen Johnson back, I still like GoF Oh hey,

822
00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:05,080
Speaker 4: he's my quarterback nineteen this week startable with a C grade, even.

823
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:07,279
Speaker 3: Though well, okay, I'm gonna move him to a B

824
00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:07,879
Speaker 3: grade site.

825
00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:09,480
Speaker 4: I do have an A and a B on his

826
00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:12,759
Speaker 4: two starting receivers, and I do like Laporta, so I'm

827
00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:15,920
Speaker 4: gonna move on golf up to here to a B grade. Lastly,

828
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:20,160
Speaker 4: David Montgomery bad game last week, but this was a

829
00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:22,399
Speaker 4: bad Bears run defense last year, and they couldn't stop

830
00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:25,840
Speaker 4: Minnesota's power runner Jordan Mason, who had a really nice game.

831
00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:29,400
Speaker 4: And Monty hammered the Bears in his one matchup against

832
00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:33,520
Speaker 4: Chicago last year twenty two carries. So here's the Bears.

833
00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:35,919
Speaker 4: They've allowed the most rushing touchdowns last year. We'll give

834
00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:40,200
Speaker 4: David Montgomery another bounce back player with a B grade, Scott.

835
00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:42,000
Speaker 3: This is gonna be a tight window. I don't know.

836
00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:44,920
Speaker 3: I don't think we can sneak in one more matchup,

837
00:43:46,080 --> 00:43:49,600
Speaker 3: Probably not in our remaining time. I don't think. I

838
00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:51,680
Speaker 3: don't think we can quite get there. No, I don't

839
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:52,759
Speaker 3: think so either. Let's see.

840
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:56,719
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, let's.

841
00:43:56,480 --> 00:43:58,080
Speaker 3: Talk about fantasy life for one moment.

842
00:43:58,120 --> 00:43:59,799
Speaker 4: If you want some of the best content and tools

843
00:43:59,840 --> 00:44:01,880
Speaker 4: you can and possibly a get in fantasy football, fantasy

845
00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:09,400
Speaker 4: to on this program all the time. The utilization score

846
00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:14,960
Speaker 4: wraps up how well used a player was in his offense,

847
00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:16,160
Speaker 4: and it looks.

848
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:19,759
Speaker 3: At all the metrics rounded into one score. Yeah, it's great.

849
00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:21,680
Speaker 5: It's become a tap.

Speaker 3: is at Scottfish.

861
00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:23,840
Speaker 4: Twenty four, Matt Harrison at Explosive Output. You know, we

862
00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:26,200
Speaker 4: used to have explosive output all the time on this show, Matt.

863
00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:29,040
Speaker 4: Now we never seem to have explosive output anymore. Is

864
00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:33,560
Speaker 4: nobody you just get me instead? Just you just plain

865
00:45:33,640 --> 00:45:34,160
Speaker 4: old Matt.

866
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:35,000
Speaker 3: That's all.

867
00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:35,640
Speaker 5: We love Matt.

868
00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:39,560
Speaker 3: We do love Matt, and we love the explosive output.

869
00:45:39,680 --> 00:45:41,000
Speaker 4: And maybe we're going to get some out of the

870
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:42,799
Speaker 4: players we're going to talk about, but it doesn't look

871
00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:43,600
Speaker 4: like it's this guy.

872
00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:45,520
Speaker 3: For question number one.

873
00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:48,240
Speaker 2: Tough question number one, what's.

874
00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:50,839
Speaker 4: The appropriate level of concern for Kansas City running back

875
00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:51,920
Speaker 4: Isaiah Pacheco?

876
00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:53,560
Speaker 3: Is it none? Is it some?

877
00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:57,960
Speaker 4: Or is it a bowel loosening level of existential dread?

878
00:45:58,280 --> 00:45:59,960
Speaker 4: For this one, we begin with Scott Fish.

879
00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:03,239
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's it's some and you could you could make

880
00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:04,799
Speaker 6: a case and talk me in to blow it. It

881
00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:07,800
Speaker 6: doesn't seem like Andy Reid has a lot of faith

882
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:10,279
Speaker 6: in any of the running backs being a lead dog,

883
00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:13,840
Speaker 6: especially Pachecko at this point. The upside is he played

884
00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:16,320
Speaker 6: fifty one percent of the snaps to Hunt's thirty eight percent.

885
00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:18,560
Speaker 6: He played the red zone role, he got the loan

886
00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:21,440
Speaker 6: red zone target, he ran more routes, he was the

887
00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:24,719
Speaker 6: two minute guy. He he had many of the facets

888
00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:28,399
Speaker 6: he was in there. But uh, that that is quite

889
00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:31,080
Speaker 6: a split there, So I'm gonna go with some some.

890
00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:33,880
Speaker 4: All right, Matt, what's the appropriate level of concern for

891
00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:35,800
Speaker 4: Kansas City running back Isaiah Pachecko?

892
00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:38,279
Speaker 3: None? Some, or blowed?

893
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:43,239
Speaker 7: It's that poop again, charg It's blowed. God stole a

894
00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:46,120
Speaker 7: lot of my talking points. But both had five carries

895
00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:48,760
Speaker 7: in this game. That's not good Uck and the undead

896
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:51,520
Speaker 7: corpse of Kareem Hunt is the guy stealing carries from

897
00:46:51,560 --> 00:46:54,920
Speaker 7: Isaiah Pachecko. By the way, Hunt was on the field

898
00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:57,840
Speaker 7: for all the short down and distance snaps and eighty

899
00:46:57,880 --> 00:46:59,520
Speaker 7: three percent of the long.

900
00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:00,600
Speaker 3: Down and distance snaps.

901
00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:03,040
Speaker 7: I'll tell you about a Chiefs runner I like a

902
00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:04,239
Speaker 7: little bit more later though.

903
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:08,759
Speaker 4: All right, Uh, for this one, I'm I'm trying not

904
00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:10,280
Speaker 4: to overreact to one week.

905
00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:12,920
Speaker 3: It's tempting, though, I believe.

906
00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:15,800
Speaker 4: The correct answer is going to be some because Kareem

907
00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:18,200
Speaker 4: Hunt is just not good. I mean, it's sooner or later,

908
00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:20,360
Speaker 4: the best running back's got to get more work.

909
00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:22,719
Speaker 3: And at the goal line. I still think it's gonna

910
00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:23,320
Speaker 3: be Pacheco.

911
00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:28,400
Speaker 4: My big worry about Pacheco, it's less Kareem Hunt and

912
00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:30,400
Speaker 4: more that this team trades for a running back and

913
00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:33,680
Speaker 4: just finds a whole new running back here. Imagine what

914
00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:37,080
Speaker 4: Kenneth Walker would do in the Elves backfield.

915
00:47:37,160 --> 00:47:40,320
Speaker 5: Amara or a second take Bigsby trade.

916
00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:47,359
Speaker 3: Now perfect. I would love that. All right, let's go

917
00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:48,640
Speaker 3: to our second question.

918
00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:50,799
Speaker 2: Tough question number two.

919
00:47:51,560 --> 00:47:54,800
Speaker 4: It's possible that Miami wide receiver Tyreek Hill has cooked.

920
00:47:55,160 --> 00:48:00,719
Speaker 3: Should fantasy managers work to obtain Jalen Waddle? Matt, what

921
00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:01,000
Speaker 3: do you.

922
00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:04,680
Speaker 7: Think fantasy managers should not try to get Jalen Wattle?

923
00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:07,839
Speaker 7: In fact, fantasy managers should sell whatever Dolphins they can.

924
00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:10,279
Speaker 7: And I kind of hope the Dolphins sell devon a

925
00:48:10,440 --> 00:48:13,120
Speaker 7: Chan to the Chiefs because I think he's the only

926
00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:15,520
Speaker 7: guy you can really roster right now. And I know

927
00:48:15,680 --> 00:48:18,560
Speaker 7: fish like Tua is take a chance at me quarterback.

928
00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:21,960
Speaker 7: The stink of death is all over this Dolphins team.

929
00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:24,960
Speaker 7: They've been caught in a fishing net. It's gross. And

930
00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:30,760
Speaker 7: you're confident with Zach Wilson getting snaps supporting a wide

931
00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:34,080
Speaker 7: receiver because it's not if to it gets hurt, it's when.

932
00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:38,800
Speaker 7: So you're Zach Wilson and Jalen Wattle? No thanks, all right, Scott?

933
00:48:39,400 --> 00:48:43,640
Speaker 4: With Tyreek Hill looking potentially cooked, should fantasy managers try

934
00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:45,000
Speaker 4: to obtain Jalen Wattle?

935
00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:47,319
Speaker 2: For on mine?

936
00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:49,719
Speaker 6: I feel very much the same way Matt does for

937
00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:52,120
Speaker 6: this season and for many of the matchups for the

938
00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:55,839
Speaker 6: Dolphins coming up, that this team just is a little

939
00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:58,160
Speaker 6: bit gross right now. Will they find their way back?

940
00:48:59,280 --> 00:48:59,919
Speaker 5: Tyreek Hill.

941
00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:03,680
Speaker 6: Well, he's still leading targets, leading basically every other category

942
00:49:03,719 --> 00:49:07,759
Speaker 6: over waddle Ye has his shoulder injury. Like, I'm not

943
00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:10,840
Speaker 6: even completely buying that Tyreek Hill is completely cooked, and

944
00:49:11,400 --> 00:49:14,480
Speaker 6: whatever that offense produces, it's still gonna have to split

945
00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:17,920
Speaker 6: between Hill and Wattle and h Chan, et cetera. And

946
00:49:18,040 --> 00:49:20,200
Speaker 6: it might not be splitting a very large pie. So

947
00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:20,920
Speaker 6: I'm gonna go with no.

948
00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:23,520
Speaker 3: I'm afraid the answer is no.

949
00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:26,800
Speaker 4: I thought that maybe this would be a by situation

950
00:49:26,920 --> 00:49:28,520
Speaker 4: for Wattle, because I do think he'lls cook.

951
00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:31,640
Speaker 3: Get this. Hill's last thirty yard game, this gain.

952
00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:34,000
Speaker 4: This is Keep in mind there's a guy known for

953
00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:40,400
Speaker 4: explosive output, big big plays right downfield, the Lasers going

954
00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:41,279
Speaker 4: to Tyreek Hill.

955
00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:46,200
Speaker 3: His last thirty yard gain was over one year ago,

956
00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:48,640
Speaker 3: Week one of last year.

957
00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:53,040
Speaker 6: Just a note, he did have two really deep targets

958
00:49:53,080 --> 00:49:56,719
Speaker 6: in this one, one not caught and one was I

959
00:49:56,760 --> 00:49:59,840
Speaker 6: believe intercepted in the called back or just straight up intercepted.

960
00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:02,400
Speaker 6: He had two deep shots, but did so.

961
00:50:02,360 --> 00:50:03,919
Speaker 4: At least I tried. At least I tried a couple

962
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:07,160
Speaker 4: of times. Side note. Also, you know when you are

963
00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:11,480
Speaker 4: the subject of a domestic violence investigation that could be

964
00:50:11,480 --> 00:50:14,880
Speaker 4: weighing on you too and I this whole thing, or

965
00:50:15,040 --> 00:50:17,200
Speaker 4: I think Matt summed it up nicely. We're just we're

966
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:19,080
Speaker 4: mostly we're just out on Dolphins. I don't think there

967
00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:20,040
Speaker 4: is a bilo here.

968
00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:22,960
Speaker 2: Tough question Number three Should you.

969
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:29,479
Speaker 4: Drop Pittsburgh rookie runner Caleb Johnson Scott only the two

970
00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:33,759
Speaker 4: snaps one carry negative two yards for Caleb Johnson in

971
00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:34,720
Speaker 4: the opener.

972
00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:37,320
Speaker 6: I think you might be able to in the short

973
00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:39,440
Speaker 6: term and maybe look at him later in the season,

974
00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:44,040
Speaker 6: and maybe it just never pans out. But sure, yes,

975
00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:46,560
Speaker 6: Arthur Smith has had a very long history of not

976
00:50:46,600 --> 00:50:50,400
Speaker 6: trusting rookies gain will actually let in snaps and targets

977
00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:54,160
Speaker 6: and routes run and reception about that. At best, you're

978
00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:58,799
Speaker 6: hoping that Caleb Johnson can be like demonstrably better than

979
00:50:58,880 --> 00:51:00,759
Speaker 6: both of them and get a get a huge role.

980
00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:03,920
Speaker 6: But guess what, Bijon freaking Robinson couldn't even do that

981
00:51:04,080 --> 00:51:07,040
Speaker 6: in Atlanta in an Arthur Smith the offense, he's still

982
00:51:07,080 --> 00:51:10,600
Speaker 6: split it with Tyler Algier, and so I think it's

983
00:51:10,640 --> 00:51:13,000
Speaker 6: sure you could probably drop him and try to get

984
00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:14,759
Speaker 6: him back later if you really wanted to.

985
00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:16,319
Speaker 5: If there's something but I doubt it.

986
00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:20,640
Speaker 3: I'm mat how can we drop rookie runner Caleb Johnson.

987
00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:22,640
Speaker 3: Not yet, but I'm nervous.

988
00:51:22,719 --> 00:51:26,320
Speaker 7: I actually did look up how Arthur Smith was treating

989
00:51:26,400 --> 00:51:28,960
Speaker 7: rookie running backs and he actually gave Tyler Algier and

990
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:32,200
Speaker 7: Bijon a pretty big run, both of them at the

991
00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:35,080
Speaker 7: very start of their rookie campaigns. But the issue here

992
00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:38,160
Speaker 7: is Jalen Warren averaged three point four yards per carry

993
00:51:38,160 --> 00:51:41,280
Speaker 7: and Kenneth Gainwell averaged two point seven yards per carrie

994
00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:42,960
Speaker 7: last week, and that's.

995
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:43,480
Speaker 3: Not going to cut it.

996
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:46,600
Speaker 7: I think the primary reason for concern for Caleb is

997
00:51:47,080 --> 00:51:49,600
Speaker 7: he's not regarded as a good pass blocker and his

998
00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:52,799
Speaker 7: quarterback is ninety four years old, and he never had

999
00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:55,760
Speaker 7: the pass block in Iowa because they haven't discovered passing

1000
00:51:55,840 --> 00:52:00,840
Speaker 7: the football in Iowa City yet. So Jalen Warren two

1001
00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:06,200
Speaker 7: pass block grade for Pro Football Focus, that's horrible. Gainwell

1002
00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:09,080
Speaker 7: only managed a forty five grade last year for Pro

1003
00:52:09,080 --> 00:52:10,720
Speaker 7: Football Focus on pass blocking.

1004
00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:11,880
Speaker 3: That's also bad.

1005
00:52:12,120 --> 00:52:15,040
Speaker 7: So if Caleb can beat out either one of those

1006
00:52:15,080 --> 00:52:17,840
Speaker 7: two guys in pass blocking, I think he'll start getting

1007
00:52:17,840 --> 00:52:19,560
Speaker 7: more time on the field because he's a better runner

1008
00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:20,799
Speaker 7: than both of those guys.

1009
00:52:21,239 --> 00:52:24,280
Speaker 4: Cooler heads always say it's week one, don't panic after

1010
00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:27,760
Speaker 4: just one week in a small sample size. I'm generally

1011
00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:30,640
Speaker 4: on the side of panic. This is going back many

1012
00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:32,360
Speaker 4: many years on this show. We've had this debate in

1013
00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:36,040
Speaker 4: week two, many many times. If you are slow to act,

1014
00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:39,040
Speaker 4: if you are going to wait for more and more

1015
00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:42,960
Speaker 4: data points one, you can't even trade Caleb Johnson anymore

1016
00:52:42,960 --> 00:52:44,520
Speaker 4: if he keeps going this way. I mean, right now,

1017
00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:47,080
Speaker 4: there's at least optimism I could trade to Matt right now,

1018
00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:50,640
Speaker 4: or you could be picking up somebody else who helps

1019
00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:53,560
Speaker 4: your roster. We're going to give you all the players

1020
00:52:53,880 --> 00:52:56,520
Speaker 4: that we're going to give him premature speculation. I would

1021
00:52:56,560 --> 00:53:00,279
Speaker 4: rather have on my roster than Caleb Johnson. I'm going

1022
00:53:00,280 --> 00:53:02,800
Speaker 4: to wait around for Arthur Smith to get his senses

1023
00:53:02,840 --> 00:53:05,920
Speaker 4: back in him Bjohn Robinson. It took ten weeks before

1024
00:53:06,000 --> 00:53:09,120
Speaker 4: Bjohn Robinson was more of a workhorse back for Arthur Smith.

1025
00:53:09,400 --> 00:53:12,120
Speaker 4: He was being shuttled in, as Matt mentioned, on a

1026
00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:14,520
Speaker 4: part time basis, and that was the guy who was

1027
00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:17,799
Speaker 4: the eighth player taken in his draft. So we are

1028
00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:20,120
Speaker 4: out on Caleb Johnson.

1029
00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:20,799
Speaker 3: I'm moving on.

1030
00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:24,480
Speaker 4: Let's go back to our matchups, beginning with New England

1031
00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:26,719
Speaker 4: taking on Miami. Earlier in the show, I told you

1032
00:53:26,719 --> 00:53:29,399
Speaker 4: Weremandre Stevenson was might take a chance on me running back.

1033
00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:33,120
Speaker 4: What about his backfield mate Traveon Henderson Scott.

1034
00:53:33,400 --> 00:53:35,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, I have a starting grade on him too. I

1035
00:53:35,080 --> 00:53:35,840
Speaker 5: have a C grade.

1036
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:40,800
Speaker 6: Despite less work, as you clearly laid out, he's still

1037
00:53:41,040 --> 00:53:43,439
Speaker 6: got more targets and he was much more efficient even

1038
00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:46,680
Speaker 6: with his rushing touches. He averaged over five yards per

1039
00:53:46,719 --> 00:53:48,000
Speaker 6: Carrie caught six balls.

1040
00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:48,520
Speaker 3: Look good.

1041
00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:51,520
Speaker 6: And if his down day is twenty seven rushing yards

1042
00:53:51,520 --> 00:53:54,360
Speaker 6: twenty four receiving yards but a double digit ppr da

1043
00:53:54,440 --> 00:53:56,560
Speaker 6: because of all the catches, what's he going to do

1044
00:53:56,600 --> 00:53:59,440
Speaker 6: in a matchup like this? As you said earlier, this

1045
00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:01,719
Speaker 6: is a This is a matchup where they allowed forty

1046
00:54:02,080 --> 00:54:06,400
Speaker 6: running back touches just the week Frire Trevion Henderson should

1047
00:54:06,400 --> 00:54:08,360
Speaker 6: get some of that and he should be pretty pretty

1048
00:54:08,360 --> 00:54:10,759
Speaker 6: efficient with that. In relief, I should have made him

1049
00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:14,399
Speaker 6: by take a chance. I'd be players so we could Yes, yeah,

1050
00:54:14,760 --> 00:54:18,239
Speaker 6: running backs into the passing game. I have a C

1051
00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:21,960
Speaker 6: grade on Drake May. Miami posted the highest blitz rate

1052
00:54:22,040 --> 00:54:24,680
Speaker 6: last week, which may cause Drake May to get out

1053
00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:26,799
Speaker 6: of the pocket a little more. He didn't really do

1054
00:54:26,920 --> 00:54:29,920
Speaker 6: that in Week one, despite a huge game allowed to

1055
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:34,800
Speaker 6: Daniel Jones by the Dolphins. Two of those were rushing

1056
00:54:34,840 --> 00:54:38,520
Speaker 6: touchdowns and they were second best against fantasy quarterbacks last year.

1057
00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:41,200
Speaker 6: But the second half had a bunch of multi score games.

1058
00:54:41,600 --> 00:54:44,080
Speaker 6: So hopefully may can get near that three hundred dollars

1059
00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:47,560
Speaker 6: three hundred yards and potentially get some rushing on the ground.

1060
00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:49,239
Speaker 5: C grade there, you.

1061
00:54:49,200 --> 00:54:51,239
Speaker 6: Could talk me into a little higher. I have a

1062
00:54:51,320 --> 00:54:58,239
Speaker 6: B grade on charges boy kaishawan boody oh, I love it.

1063
00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:02,359
Speaker 6: Top twenty air yards last week, led the team in routes,

1064
00:55:02,440 --> 00:55:05,759
Speaker 6: run targets, tied in catches, and a bunch of other

1065
00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:06,840
Speaker 6: wide receiver categories.

1066
00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:07,239
Speaker 1: He led it.

1067
00:55:07,719 --> 00:55:09,879
Speaker 6: He's he's been limited with his shoulder injury, but he's

1068
00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:10,640
Speaker 6: off the injury port.

1069
00:55:10,680 --> 00:55:11,200
Speaker 5: He's gonna go.

1070
00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:14,120
Speaker 6: Gets a matchup against Rozuel Douglas, who was one of

1071
00:55:14,160 --> 00:55:16,920
Speaker 6: the better corners in the NFL for for three years

1072
00:55:17,480 --> 00:55:20,840
Speaker 6: and then he really tailed off. A fifty three PFF

1073
00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:24,920
Speaker 6: grade and one hundred plus passerwating against over the last

1074
00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:25,879
Speaker 6: year and a game.

1075
00:55:27,160 --> 00:55:30,320
Speaker 4: Rasoul Douglas was a street free agent two weeks ago.

1076
00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:33,480
Speaker 3: That's the state of Rasul Douglas right now.

1077
00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:39,960
Speaker 6: And way, I do have a bench grade on Tomorrio Douglas.

1078
00:55:39,960 --> 00:55:42,839
Speaker 6: The seven targets was amazing last week, but he had

1079
00:55:42,880 --> 00:55:47,680
Speaker 6: two catches negative two yards and a score. Somehow with

1080
00:55:47,800 --> 00:55:49,920
Speaker 6: seven targets he had negative two yards in a score.

1081
00:55:50,880 --> 00:55:51,760
Speaker 5: Unbelievable.

1082
00:55:52,000 --> 00:55:55,120
Speaker 6: Yeah, unbelievable. Charge looked up. He thinks it's the only

1083
00:55:55,160 --> 00:55:58,319
Speaker 6: time that's happened in NFL history. Seven targets negative two yards.

1084
00:55:58,360 --> 00:55:59,120
Speaker 3: We don't think.

1085
00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:02,359
Speaker 4: Yeah, we don't think anybody's ever had seven targets less

1086
00:56:02,360 --> 00:56:04,880
Speaker 4: than negative two yards and scored a touchdown in the

1087
00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:05,800
Speaker 4: history of the NFL.

1088
00:56:05,920 --> 00:56:07,080
Speaker 3: Amazing stat line.

1089
00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:10,400
Speaker 6: Unreal c grade on Stefan Diggs, who caught six of

1090
00:56:10,440 --> 00:56:13,920
Speaker 6: his seventy targets, six of his seven targets for fifty

1091
00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:15,920
Speaker 6: plus yards in a double digit day. He didn't have

1092
00:56:15,960 --> 00:56:19,560
Speaker 6: any red zone targets, but he only played twenty nine

1093
00:56:19,600 --> 00:56:22,439
Speaker 6: snaps as they eased him in at least I hope

1094
00:56:22,480 --> 00:56:25,200
Speaker 6: it's easy. I don't even understand why you only played

1095
00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:27,319
Speaker 6: twenty nine snaps. But he got a lot of work

1096
00:56:27,360 --> 00:56:29,800
Speaker 6: when he was in. He's going to see Jack Jones

1097
00:56:29,840 --> 00:56:31,960
Speaker 6: this week, who had one hundred and seventeen pass rating

1098
00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:35,320
Speaker 6: against last year and allowed eight scores in his coverage

1099
00:56:35,360 --> 00:56:35,799
Speaker 6: last year.

1100
00:56:35,880 --> 00:56:38,399
Speaker 5: Ooh, that's a lot. That's bad. Oh.

1101
00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:41,640
Speaker 6: By the way, he also had some disparaging words about

1102
00:56:41,680 --> 00:56:44,360
Speaker 6: not being scared of digs this week, So I feel

1103
00:56:44,360 --> 00:56:46,399
Speaker 6: like that's the kind of locker room thing Diggs would

1104
00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:48,120
Speaker 6: take take to heart.

1105
00:56:48,239 --> 00:56:49,759
Speaker 3: He could take that personally for sure.

1106
00:56:49,880 --> 00:56:50,160
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1107
00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:54,520
Speaker 6: Absolutely over two Hunter Henry C grade Miami just gave

1108
00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:57,400
Speaker 6: up seventy six yards to Tyler Warren. Truly felt like

1109
00:56:57,440 --> 00:56:59,440
Speaker 6: it should have been more. Honestly, watching that game, that

1110
00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:02,920
Speaker 6: target volume from last year just didn't go away. And

1111
00:57:03,000 --> 00:57:06,040
Speaker 6: I'm not worried about the target volume that Henry had

1112
00:57:06,080 --> 00:57:08,640
Speaker 6: last year. It's still there, that twenty percent target rate.

1113
00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:12,160
Speaker 6: Not worried about Waller on the Miami side to a

1114
00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:15,280
Speaker 6: tech Tuga aloa is my take a chance on me player.

1115
00:57:15,600 --> 00:57:17,840
Speaker 6: I got C grades on both Hill and Waddle, but

1116
00:57:17,920 --> 00:57:21,600
Speaker 6: I wouldn't I wouldn't be said, I wouldn't say anything

1117
00:57:21,640 --> 00:57:24,200
Speaker 6: if you benched him. I get it. But Tyreek Hill,

1118
00:57:24,360 --> 00:57:27,240
Speaker 6: he Pats are going to be without Christian Gonzaz, which

1119
00:57:27,320 --> 00:57:30,160
Speaker 6: is good for Hill. Who's gonna get Alex Austin played

1120
00:57:30,280 --> 00:57:32,880
Speaker 6: six games last year, allowed one hundred rating against, and

1121
00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:34,840
Speaker 6: he's a four to six guy. I don't think he

1122
00:57:34,880 --> 00:57:38,680
Speaker 6: can quite keep up with the Cheetah. Jalen Wattle gets

1123
00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:42,120
Speaker 6: a tougher matchup in Carlton Davis, who was PFF's twenty

1124
00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:46,320
Speaker 6: first ranked quarter last year. Unlike unlike last year where

1125
00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:48,360
Speaker 6: Waddle and Hill got everything in Week one, they both

1126
00:57:48,400 --> 00:57:50,919
Speaker 6: played under two thirds of the snaps. All the rest,

1127
00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:52,720
Speaker 6: all the rest of the wide receivers do nothing in

1128
00:57:52,800 --> 00:57:56,160
Speaker 6: that room, so it's basically it's basically two guys. They're

1129
00:57:56,200 --> 00:57:57,840
Speaker 6: gonna get all the work. So I got Sea grades

1130
00:57:57,880 --> 00:58:01,760
Speaker 6: there and Devon a Chan gets a grade ten touches

1131
00:58:01,840 --> 00:58:04,200
Speaker 6: to Gordon's three last week. Gordon really didn't do anything,

1132
00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:06,040
Speaker 6: but he looked okay, he didn't even look good with

1133
00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:09,760
Speaker 6: those three, honestly, but fifty six and fifty six yards

1134
00:58:09,800 --> 00:58:11,800
Speaker 6: and two scores against New England last year with TUA

1135
00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:15,280
Speaker 6: and New England held genty down last week, and they're

1136
00:58:15,320 --> 00:58:17,160
Speaker 6: really controlled that line of scrimmage. So the best I

1137
00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:18,560
Speaker 6: can get to is a B grade and you hope

1138
00:58:18,560 --> 00:58:20,280
Speaker 6: for a lot of a lot of pass game work.

1139
00:58:21,240 --> 00:58:23,760
Speaker 4: Makes sense, Matt, Let's go over to the Giants taking

1140
00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:24,800
Speaker 4: on Dallas Cowboys.

1141
00:58:24,880 --> 00:58:27,400
Speaker 3: Russell Wilson looked bad last week.

1142
00:58:27,400 --> 00:58:29,200
Speaker 4: You know what's bad when after week one your coach

1143
00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:32,000
Speaker 4: has to give you the dreaded vote of confidence after

1144
00:58:32,080 --> 00:58:34,160
Speaker 4: the game and reassert that yes, you're going to be

1145
00:58:34,200 --> 00:58:37,040
Speaker 4: the starter. Do you have any hope for Russell Wilson

1146
00:58:37,120 --> 00:58:39,680
Speaker 4: in this passing game this week, in which should be

1147
00:58:39,760 --> 00:58:41,120
Speaker 4: an easy matchup with Dallas.

1148
00:58:41,440 --> 00:58:43,240
Speaker 7: I mean I do have some hope for the passing

1149
00:58:43,280 --> 00:58:45,400
Speaker 7: game as Wandelle Robinson was might take a chance on

1150
00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:47,600
Speaker 7: me receiver. And I still have Molik Neighbors in an

1151
00:58:47,640 --> 00:58:50,560
Speaker 7: A grade because in two matchups against the Cowboys last

1152
00:58:50,640 --> 00:58:53,800
Speaker 7: year he had twenty receptions. So is there something as

1153
00:58:53,840 --> 00:58:56,840
Speaker 7: a volume A grade because I think Melik Neighbors gets

1154
00:58:56,920 --> 00:59:00,400
Speaker 7: that I wouldn't start Russell Wilson though, and I don't

1155
00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:02,600
Speaker 7: think many will. But I will point out a Scott

1156
00:59:02,680 --> 00:59:06,600
Speaker 7: Fish nugget that I found. Maybe that's a fish dick. Yes,

1157
00:59:06,880 --> 00:59:07,480
Speaker 7: Wilson led.

1158
00:59:08,680 --> 00:59:08,880
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1159
00:59:09,560 --> 00:59:12,680
Speaker 7: Wilson led the league last week with eight pass attempts

1160
00:59:12,800 --> 00:59:16,040
Speaker 7: inside the ten, but only went one for eight on

1161
00:59:16,160 --> 00:59:20,560
Speaker 7: those passes for negative two yards. That cements my bench grade,

1162
00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:23,360
Speaker 7: along with the fact that Andrew Thomas is nursing a

1163
00:59:23,400 --> 00:59:27,160
Speaker 7: foot injury and has been downgraded to doubtful and offensive

1164
00:59:27,240 --> 00:59:33,560
Speaker 7: linemen I have reason to believe need feet. I can

1165
00:59:33,640 --> 00:59:36,240
Speaker 7: barely limp to a C grade on Tyrone Tracy. He

1166
00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:38,720
Speaker 7: got twelve touches as a running back in a game

1167
00:59:39,520 --> 00:59:42,200
Speaker 7: last week where the game script quickly shifted out a

1168
00:59:42,280 --> 00:59:44,040
Speaker 7: favor for the running game, but was still in the

1169
00:59:44,080 --> 00:59:46,080
Speaker 7: field for seventy four percent of the snaps, and I

1170
00:59:46,120 --> 00:59:47,520
Speaker 7: think we can call that a volume C.

1171
00:59:48,400 --> 00:59:49,200
Speaker 3: The Cowboys did.

1172
00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:52,000
Speaker 7: Allow four point zero yards per carry last week, but

1173
00:59:52,080 --> 00:59:54,680
Speaker 7: that was the Saquon Barkley. But it feels like the

1174
00:59:54,760 --> 00:59:57,080
Speaker 7: Giants have to commit to the run game as much

1175
00:59:57,080 --> 00:59:59,840
Speaker 7: as possible to even things out. But Tracy needs to

1176
00:59:59,840 --> 01:00:02,280
Speaker 7: do more than two point four yards per carry, and

1177
01:00:02,360 --> 01:00:05,800
Speaker 7: there's no other Giants to start on the Dallas side.

1178
01:00:06,320 --> 01:00:09,680
Speaker 7: Ceedee Lamb has ten days to think about the couple

1179
01:00:09,720 --> 01:00:12,120
Speaker 7: of drops that may not have cost Dallas the game

1180
01:00:12,200 --> 01:00:14,400
Speaker 7: in the opener, He's gonna be angry, and I think

1181
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:17,600
Speaker 7: he gets an A grade here. Dak looks super poised

1182
01:00:17,680 --> 01:00:19,800
Speaker 7: last week, and I'll fire him up with a B grade.

1183
01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:22,680
Speaker 7: The Giants do have a good defensive line, and I

1184
01:00:22,720 --> 01:00:25,080
Speaker 7: think the pressure they'll put on the Cowboys may result

1185
01:00:25,160 --> 01:00:28,200
Speaker 7: in shorter and intermediate routes last week or this week.

1186
01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:31,520
Speaker 7: Dak has only topped three hundred yards once in his

1187
01:00:31,640 --> 01:00:34,120
Speaker 7: last five meetings with the Giants, and those defensive lines

1188
01:00:34,160 --> 01:00:36,080
Speaker 7: were not as good as this one. But I like

1189
01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:37,880
Speaker 7: what I saw to Dak last week, so a B

1190
01:00:38,040 --> 01:00:40,880
Speaker 7: seems fair against a line that's gonna put some pressure

1191
01:00:40,960 --> 01:00:44,800
Speaker 7: on him. George Pickens only saw four targets last week,

1192
01:00:45,160 --> 01:00:48,080
Speaker 7: mostly stays on the perimeter, so he'll match up with

1193
01:00:48,360 --> 01:00:51,960
Speaker 7: Cordale Flott and Paulson Adabo, who are not guys.

1194
01:00:52,000 --> 01:00:53,880
Speaker 3: I made up those two.

1195
01:00:53,960 --> 01:00:57,439
Speaker 7: Mostly did a decent job keeping Terry McLaurin in check

1196
01:00:57,560 --> 01:01:01,240
Speaker 7: last week, so I'll start Pickins with A. But it's

1197
01:01:01,280 --> 01:01:04,440
Speaker 7: a risky C, kind of like the Drake passage, you know,

1198
01:01:04,880 --> 01:01:09,480
Speaker 7: the most dangerous ocean worldly done Antarctica on the tip

1199
01:01:09,560 --> 01:01:13,560
Speaker 7: of South America. But now I'm now realizing that we

1200
01:01:13,600 --> 01:01:16,560
Speaker 7: should use the Drake passage for matchups when we have

1201
01:01:16,720 --> 01:01:21,520
Speaker 7: risky C. Start wide receivers, all right. Finally, the running

1202
01:01:21,520 --> 01:01:24,960
Speaker 7: game in Dallas. Javante had eighteen opportunities last week.

1203
01:01:25,040 --> 01:01:25,600
Speaker 3: That was huge.

1204
01:01:25,720 --> 01:01:28,320
Speaker 7: Miles Sanders had four and he ripped off a big

1205
01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:31,640
Speaker 7: run and later fumbled the ball, So we could definitely

1206
01:01:31,680 --> 01:01:34,040
Speaker 7: only start Javante, who had seventy seven percent of the

1207
01:01:34,160 --> 01:01:36,800
Speaker 7: running back snaps. And it's a pretty legitimate B grade

1208
01:01:36,840 --> 01:01:40,880
Speaker 7: for him too, and I think I'd be giving him more.

1209
01:01:41,680 --> 01:01:43,840
Speaker 7: I didn't think i'd be giving him a B this year.

1210
01:01:43,880 --> 01:01:46,320
Speaker 7: I thought I'd be giving him more Drake passages this year.

1211
01:01:46,480 --> 01:01:50,280
Speaker 7: So the Commanders were able to rack up one hundred

1212
01:01:50,280 --> 01:01:53,680
Speaker 7: and sixty four total running back yards last week plus

1213
01:01:53,760 --> 01:01:56,360
Speaker 7: a score, and Jacory krossky Merritt was able to ding

1214
01:01:56,480 --> 01:01:58,880
Speaker 7: this d at eight point two yards per carry. So

1215
01:01:59,360 --> 01:02:02,080
Speaker 7: Javonte's a B and I feel pretty confident about it.

1216
01:02:03,280 --> 01:02:06,080
Speaker 4: When we come back to Fantasy Football Weekly, A J.

1217
01:02:06,560 --> 01:02:10,760
Speaker 4: Brown does he bounce back against a good chief secondary

1218
01:02:11,520 --> 01:02:15,480
Speaker 4: find out after a very disappointing Week one whether or

1219
01:02:15,480 --> 01:02:18,040
Speaker 4: not you can rely on him for fantasy points when

1220
01:02:18,120 --> 01:02:18,720
Speaker 4: we return.

1221
01:02:52,440 --> 01:02:54,600
Speaker 3: Welcome back to Fantasy Football Weekly.

1222
01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:59,600
Speaker 4: Another big block of matchups for you, beginning with Philadelphia

1223
01:02:59,680 --> 01:03:02,840
Speaker 4: taking on Kansas City. There's some Eagles I love in

1224
01:03:02,880 --> 01:03:05,480
Speaker 4: this one. Jalen Hurts in Saquon Barkley. Obvious A grades

1225
01:03:05,600 --> 01:03:07,640
Speaker 4: even though this is a good Chiefs defense. But let's

1226
01:03:07,680 --> 01:03:11,240
Speaker 4: talk AJ Brown. This is a squeaky wheel alert, a

1227
01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:16,440
Speaker 4: Scott Fish special. Brown had a dud game in Week one,

1228
01:03:16,560 --> 01:03:19,040
Speaker 4: and he has dud games every year, like two or three,

1229
01:03:19,240 --> 01:03:23,160
Speaker 4: just dud games. What happens the next week they pound

1230
01:03:23,240 --> 01:03:26,520
Speaker 4: the ball to AJ Brown? He averages The week after

1231
01:03:27,560 --> 01:03:31,280
Speaker 4: he has seen two or fewer catches, he averages eight

1232
01:03:31,440 --> 01:03:34,720
Speaker 4: and a half targets, five catches, seventy five yards and

1233
01:03:34,840 --> 01:03:37,760
Speaker 4: half a touchdown. Kansas City has been a good pass

1234
01:03:37,800 --> 01:03:40,960
Speaker 4: defense in prior years, but justin Herbert just lit up.

1235
01:03:41,040 --> 01:03:43,480
Speaker 4: I like AJ Brown at an A grade here as well.

1236
01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:46,400
Speaker 4: DeVonta Smith comes into the B grade. Last week all

1237
01:03:46,480 --> 01:03:50,440
Speaker 4: three of the Chargers wide receivers posted Fantasy relevant games

1238
01:03:50,600 --> 01:03:53,160
Speaker 4: against the Chiefs and in the Super Bowl when these

1239
01:03:53,200 --> 01:03:56,480
Speaker 4: teams met. Really, I guess just two games ago, Smith

1240
01:03:56,560 --> 01:03:59,520
Speaker 4: posted sixty eight yards and a touchdown in that one.

1241
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:01,000
Speaker 3: He is a B grade.

1242
01:04:01,080 --> 01:04:03,000
Speaker 4: Dallas Goddard is out with the sprain knee, and I

1243
01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:06,600
Speaker 4: would not pivot to Grant Calcaterra unless you absolutely have to.

1244
01:04:07,040 --> 01:04:07,880
Speaker 3: He is on the bench.

1245
01:04:08,080 --> 01:04:10,480
Speaker 4: Let's go over to Kansas City, where we start with

1246
01:04:10,560 --> 01:04:13,880
Speaker 4: Hollywood Brown coming off a sixteen touch game last week,

1247
01:04:13,960 --> 01:04:17,400
Speaker 4: target game last week. Xavier Worthy not expected to play

1248
01:04:17,440 --> 01:04:21,240
Speaker 4: in this one. He's doubtful more targets coming to Hollywood

1249
01:04:21,240 --> 01:04:24,520
Speaker 4: Brown and the Eagles. Cornerback of Dori Jackson in his

1250
01:04:24,680 --> 01:04:29,280
Speaker 4: first game with his new team brutal last week, giving

1251
01:04:29,360 --> 01:04:32,760
Speaker 4: up more coverage yards than any player one hundred and

1252
01:04:32,920 --> 01:04:36,480
Speaker 4: three yards all by himself. Hollywood Brown a solid B

1253
01:04:36,680 --> 01:04:39,760
Speaker 4: grade start. Juju Smith Schuster at a C level if

1254
01:04:39,800 --> 01:04:41,960
Speaker 4: you want the same five catches fifty five yards he

1255
01:04:42,040 --> 01:04:44,680
Speaker 4: had last week. He does have a punishing matchup in

1256
01:04:44,800 --> 01:04:47,680
Speaker 4: the slot against Cooper dejen but he also ran outside

1257
01:04:47,720 --> 01:04:52,640
Speaker 4: for half of his half of his receptions last year,

1258
01:04:52,720 --> 01:04:54,520
Speaker 4: so Jude's got a chance to also get some of

1259
01:04:54,600 --> 01:04:59,840
Speaker 4: that Adorri Jackson action as well. Travis Kelce, you'd think that,

1260
01:05:00,120 --> 01:05:02,680
Speaker 4: like last week with Worthy knocked out early and Rahi

1261
01:05:02,840 --> 01:05:04,960
Speaker 4: Rice suspended, the whole passing offense and go through him.

1262
01:05:05,040 --> 01:05:08,560
Speaker 4: Did not go that way last week, only targeted three times.

1263
01:05:08,960 --> 01:05:11,400
Speaker 4: He only had two catches in the Super Bowl matchup.

1264
01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:15,200
Speaker 4: As well, The Eagles were an elite tight end defense

1265
01:05:15,280 --> 01:05:17,560
Speaker 4: last year and the Cowboys did nothing in the opener,

1266
01:05:17,680 --> 01:05:19,800
Speaker 4: So I guess I just I don't love Kelsey here,

1267
01:05:19,920 --> 01:05:20,680
Speaker 4: and I've only got.

1268
01:05:20,600 --> 01:05:22,600
Speaker 3: A C grade on Travis Kelcey.

1269
01:05:23,480 --> 01:05:26,520
Speaker 4: Patrick Mahomes looked all right in Week one, but we

1270
01:05:26,680 --> 01:05:29,000
Speaker 4: just we're still not seeing the downfield passing we've been

1271
01:05:29,040 --> 01:05:32,400
Speaker 4: asking for for two years out of Mahomes. Everybody thought

1272
01:05:32,440 --> 01:05:35,400
Speaker 4: it would start to come together here that has not happened.

1273
01:05:35,520 --> 01:05:39,800
Speaker 4: He's lost his top two receiving options. And on the

1274
01:05:39,840 --> 01:05:43,040
Speaker 4: Eagles defensive side, I thought Dak Prescott actually played pretty

1275
01:05:43,040 --> 01:05:45,240
Speaker 4: well against them, although it only totaled one hundred and

1276
01:05:45,240 --> 01:05:47,280
Speaker 4: eighty eight yards and no scores in the opener. I've

1277
01:05:47,320 --> 01:05:50,480
Speaker 4: got Mahomes of just a sea grade as well. And

1278
01:05:50,560 --> 01:05:53,440
Speaker 4: then the running game, which we discussed earlier. Isaiah Pacheco

1279
01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:56,440
Speaker 4: very worried about him based on what we saw in

1280
01:05:56,480 --> 01:05:58,320
Speaker 4: Week one, and I've got a bench grade on him

1281
01:05:58,360 --> 01:06:02,320
Speaker 4: against one of the last year's best run defense. Now,

1282
01:06:02,520 --> 01:06:04,760
Speaker 4: Javonte Williams look good against the Eagles in the opener

1283
01:06:04,800 --> 01:06:08,880
Speaker 4: on Thursday night, but I don't. I think the Eagles

1284
01:06:08,920 --> 01:06:10,960
Speaker 4: get back to being a very tough run defense, and

1285
01:06:11,200 --> 01:06:14,520
Speaker 4: the checko only the five carries last week. Let's move

1286
01:06:14,560 --> 01:06:17,640
Speaker 4: on to our next matchup, that is the Rams taking

1287
01:06:17,840 --> 01:06:21,520
Speaker 4: on Tennessee Scott Puka Okua picked up right where he

1288
01:06:21,680 --> 01:06:22,800
Speaker 4: left off last week.

1289
01:06:23,360 --> 01:06:25,720
Speaker 6: He really did every time he gets at least sixty

1290
01:06:25,760 --> 01:06:28,640
Speaker 6: percent of the snaps. He's basically a matchup proof stud.

1291
01:06:28,760 --> 01:06:30,520
Speaker 6: So I have an A grade on him. I have

1292
01:06:30,600 --> 01:06:33,479
Speaker 6: a B grade on Devonte Adams, who's gonna get Lagerius Snead,

1293
01:06:33,520 --> 01:06:36,479
Speaker 6: who played limited snaps but didn't allow a single catch

1294
01:06:36,640 --> 01:06:39,760
Speaker 6: on his limited snaps last week as he gets eased

1295
01:06:39,840 --> 01:06:42,920
Speaker 6: in coming back from that ACL tear. When Sneid isn't in,

1296
01:06:43,200 --> 01:06:46,840
Speaker 6: Adams is gonna get Jarvis Brownlee, who is PFF's forty

1297
01:06:46,880 --> 01:06:49,680
Speaker 6: six rand corner and we got one ninety eight pass

1298
01:06:49,760 --> 01:06:53,200
Speaker 6: rating allowed last year. Adams did catch four of his

1299
01:06:53,280 --> 01:06:56,200
Speaker 6: eight for fifty one yards, played sixty eight percent perimeter.

1300
01:06:56,280 --> 01:06:57,800
Speaker 6: He was on the perimeter most of the time with

1301
01:06:57,920 --> 01:07:01,760
Speaker 6: Pooka on the inside. Of course, there, Matthew Stafford, I'm

1302
01:07:01,760 --> 01:07:04,520
Speaker 6: giving a C grade too. The Titans allowed multiple scores

1303
01:07:04,520 --> 01:07:07,560
Speaker 6: in twelve games last year. They kept the yards really

1304
01:07:07,600 --> 01:07:11,200
Speaker 6: low fewest passing yards allowed to passers last year. Continued

1305
01:07:11,240 --> 01:07:13,400
Speaker 6: that with boon Nicks only getting one hundred and eighty

1306
01:07:13,520 --> 01:07:16,520
Speaker 6: in Week one, but Stafford profiles closer to a lot

1307
01:07:16,560 --> 01:07:18,520
Speaker 6: of the guys who had multiple scores last year, and

1308
01:07:18,680 --> 01:07:20,360
Speaker 6: he has better weapons, so I'm giving him a C

1309
01:07:20,520 --> 01:07:24,200
Speaker 6: grade here. Kyron Williams gets an A grade saw all

1310
01:07:24,280 --> 01:07:26,160
Speaker 6: but one carry for the Rams, So so much for

1311
01:07:26,240 --> 01:07:29,600
Speaker 6: that spelling him thing they kept talking about. He has

1312
01:07:29,600 --> 01:07:33,840
Speaker 6: scored twenty five. He's scored in twenty five of his

1313
01:07:33,960 --> 01:07:37,960
Speaker 6: thirty two games as a starter, thirty two touchdowns twenty

1314
01:07:38,040 --> 01:07:41,200
Speaker 6: five of the thirty two games he started. Dovins and

1315
01:07:41,280 --> 01:07:43,600
Speaker 6: Harvey in this matchup last week went for one hundred

1316
01:07:43,600 --> 01:07:45,600
Speaker 6: and thirty seven in a score, but Kyron gets it.

1317
01:07:45,680 --> 01:07:48,920
Speaker 6: Also a grade on the Titans Sea side. I can

1318
01:07:48,960 --> 01:07:51,600
Speaker 6: only muster one C grade because of cam Ward and

1319
01:07:51,760 --> 01:07:54,680
Speaker 6: that and that passing, you know, barely over one hundred

1320
01:07:54,720 --> 01:07:57,880
Speaker 6: yards passing and a tough matchup against the Rams front

1321
01:07:57,960 --> 01:08:00,160
Speaker 6: seven that's going to get to him. I know you

1322
01:08:00,240 --> 01:08:02,880
Speaker 6: might want to start Ridley or elk Iamin ar manor

1323
01:08:02,920 --> 01:08:05,120
Speaker 6: who I like later in the season, but it's not

1324
01:08:05,720 --> 01:08:08,240
Speaker 6: the place here. Tony Pollard's the only one with a grade.

1325
01:08:08,320 --> 01:08:09,080
Speaker 5: A C grade.

1326
01:08:09,440 --> 01:08:11,840
Speaker 6: He played eighty nine percent of the snaps, eighteen of

1327
01:08:11,920 --> 01:08:15,880
Speaker 6: twenty carries, thirty one of thirty four pass plays. His

1328
01:08:16,040 --> 01:08:18,240
Speaker 6: backups only had six snaps.

1329
01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:19,040
Speaker 5: That's it.

1330
01:08:19,160 --> 01:08:22,680
Speaker 6: Wow, Yeah, just six naps. It's a tougher matchup, but

1331
01:08:22,760 --> 01:08:24,800
Speaker 6: we just saw Nick Chubb go for four plus yards

1332
01:08:24,840 --> 01:08:28,400
Speaker 6: of carry in this He's gonna get my patented, trademarked

1333
01:08:28,720 --> 01:08:29,559
Speaker 6: volume c here.

1334
01:08:30,800 --> 01:08:32,439
Speaker 3: Alright, I love it.

1335
01:08:33,320 --> 01:08:36,759
Speaker 4: Matt Denver takes on Indianapolis bo Nicks with a dud

1336
01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:39,880
Speaker 4: game in the opener. Do you expect him to bounce

1337
01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:41,920
Speaker 4: back against Indianapolis Colts?

1338
01:08:42,360 --> 01:08:44,880
Speaker 7: I do. His issue last week was his average depth

1339
01:08:44,880 --> 01:08:47,639
Speaker 7: of target was only six point four yards downfield, sixth

1340
01:08:47,760 --> 01:08:50,280
Speaker 7: lowest in the league, and his yards per attempt was

1341
01:08:50,320 --> 01:08:53,760
Speaker 7: only four point four. Only cam Ward was worse than

1342
01:08:53,800 --> 01:08:57,000
Speaker 7: Week one, and the Colts defense held to almost completely

1343
01:08:57,080 --> 01:08:58,840
Speaker 7: in check last week. But I don't know if I

1344
01:08:58,920 --> 01:09:00,880
Speaker 7: believe it. I'm gonna throw a be great on Nicks

1345
01:09:00,880 --> 01:09:03,400
Speaker 7: because I don't think I can believe in that Colts defense,

1346
01:09:03,760 --> 01:09:05,519
Speaker 7: even though I think it seems like a run heavy

1347
01:09:05,560 --> 01:09:09,519
Speaker 7: week for the Broncos. Here, Courtland Sutton's the only receiver

1348
01:09:09,600 --> 01:09:11,559
Speaker 7: I think you can start with confidence, and that includes

1349
01:09:11,600 --> 01:09:15,599
Speaker 7: Evan Ingram for me. Sutton targeted nine times last week,

1350
01:09:16,240 --> 01:09:20,320
Speaker 7: hauled in the only nine touchdown pass, and led the

1351
01:09:20,400 --> 01:09:23,000
Speaker 7: team in receptions and yards be grade for Sutton, He's

1352
01:09:23,040 --> 01:09:26,320
Speaker 7: clearly the favorite, but I'll leave Mims Franklin all on

1353
01:09:26,400 --> 01:09:28,680
Speaker 7: the bench. I just need to see the Broncos consistently

1354
01:09:28,760 --> 01:09:32,280
Speaker 7: support more than one receiver in fantasy before I start

1355
01:09:32,320 --> 01:09:34,960
Speaker 7: a lot of these games. As for the running back

1356
01:09:35,040 --> 01:09:38,200
Speaker 7: site believe you can start both JK. Dobbins and R. J. Harvey,

1357
01:09:38,360 --> 01:09:40,799
Speaker 7: or as I like to call them, R JK. Hobbins,

1358
01:09:40,880 --> 01:09:46,400
Speaker 7: who is a character from the series. He's only had

1359
01:09:46,560 --> 01:09:49,760
Speaker 7: six carries this is Harvey and one target, but had

1360
01:09:49,880 --> 01:09:53,360
Speaker 7: seventy grounds on the seventy ground yards, mostly off that

1361
01:09:53,439 --> 01:09:56,560
Speaker 7: big run last week. Dobbin saw eighteen touches and the

1362
01:09:56,640 --> 01:09:59,120
Speaker 7: rushing touchdown was on the field for over half the snaps.

1363
01:09:59,600 --> 01:10:01,920
Speaker 7: The cold this defense gave up a pretty decent day

1364
01:10:01,960 --> 01:10:05,479
Speaker 7: to Devon a Chan before they stopped using him. He

1365
01:10:05,560 --> 01:10:07,720
Speaker 7: had almost eight yards per carry and they gave up

1366
01:10:07,760 --> 01:10:09,960
Speaker 7: on the run. So I'll give a bea to Dobbins

1367
01:10:10,040 --> 01:10:12,160
Speaker 7: a sea to Harvey, but I think Harvey's gonna eat

1368
01:10:12,200 --> 01:10:15,160
Speaker 7: into that workload sooner or later. On the Colt side,

1369
01:10:15,240 --> 01:10:17,280
Speaker 7: I'll stick with the running game and Jonathan Taylor, who

1370
01:10:17,280 --> 01:10:19,120
Speaker 7: had a little bit of a mixed bag last week

1371
01:10:19,960 --> 01:10:25,000
Speaker 7: twenty one touches, twenty seven yards through the air, three catches,

1372
01:10:25,479 --> 01:10:29,200
Speaker 7: but man, the worst part was Danny Dimes kept stealing

1373
01:10:29,240 --> 01:10:32,240
Speaker 7: his touchdown runs. Obviously, Danny Dimes is the new Jalen

1374
01:10:32,320 --> 01:10:37,120
Speaker 7: Hurts were pretty stoked against the run last year. But

1375
01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:40,080
Speaker 7: last back to top one hundred rushing yards on the

1376
01:10:40,120 --> 01:10:43,400
Speaker 7: Broncos was Jonathan Taylor in Week fifteen of last season.

1377
01:10:43,479 --> 01:10:44,439
Speaker 3: So a B grade here.

1378
01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:48,000
Speaker 7: I mentioned Danny Dimes, who had two rushing scores on

1379
01:10:48,120 --> 01:10:50,519
Speaker 7: seven carries, also had two hundred and seventy two passing

1380
01:10:50,560 --> 01:10:52,960
Speaker 7: yards in a score as well. If only in the

1381
01:10:53,000 --> 01:10:56,439
Speaker 7: preseason someone mentioned Daniel Jones as the handcuff that mattered

1382
01:10:56,520 --> 01:10:57,080
Speaker 7: most to you.

1383
01:10:57,800 --> 01:10:58,920
Speaker 3: Oh that was me.

1384
01:11:00,000 --> 01:11:03,559
Speaker 7: Now, the Broncos defense is a completely different animal than

1385
01:11:03,600 --> 01:11:07,920
Speaker 7: the Dolphins. In fact, their players are picking up the

1386
01:11:08,040 --> 01:11:10,720
Speaker 7: number two. So I guess I guess I should say

1387
01:11:11,120 --> 01:11:14,960
Speaker 7: most casual fantasy players. They're picking up Daniel Jones as

1388
01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:18,400
Speaker 7: the number two quarterback in fantasy and blindly plugging them

1389
01:11:18,439 --> 01:11:21,919
Speaker 7: into their lineup. That's wrong bench him this week. Outside

1390
01:11:21,960 --> 01:11:24,360
Speaker 7: of those two, there were two big games the Broncos

1391
01:11:24,400 --> 01:11:27,479
Speaker 7: gave up last year to yolo quarterbacks Joe Burrow and

1392
01:11:27,560 --> 01:11:30,920
Speaker 7: Jameis Winston, and outside of that, they averaged only two

1393
01:11:31,000 --> 01:11:33,519
Speaker 7: hundred three passing yards and less than a passing score

1394
01:11:33,600 --> 01:11:34,000
Speaker 7: per game.

1395
01:11:34,560 --> 01:11:35,960
Speaker 3: So I got Daniel Jones on the bench.

1396
01:11:36,000 --> 01:11:37,960
Speaker 7: I got Michael Pittman on the bench as well, because

1397
01:11:37,960 --> 01:11:40,880
Speaker 7: he's gonna match up with Patrick Sartan, who shadows the

1398
01:11:40,880 --> 01:11:45,120
Speaker 7: team's best perimeter wide receiver, and that's Pittman. If you

1399
01:11:45,320 --> 01:11:47,439
Speaker 7: are in a league that requires you to start one

1400
01:11:47,520 --> 01:11:50,519
Speaker 7: cults wide receiver every game, I'd go Josh Downs, who

1401
01:11:50,600 --> 01:11:51,960
Speaker 7: runs most of his routes.

1402
01:11:52,080 --> 01:11:53,719
Speaker 5: From the slot and are crazy.

1403
01:11:54,160 --> 01:11:54,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, they are weird.

1404
01:11:55,800 --> 01:12:00,000
Speaker 7: The slot cornerback Jakwan McMillan is the path of least resistance.

1405
01:12:00,280 --> 01:12:02,640
Speaker 7: But I'd still prefer Downs on the bench. But if

1406
01:12:02,640 --> 01:12:05,040
Speaker 7: there's a Colts receiver I would start. It's rookie Tyler

1407
01:12:05,120 --> 01:12:07,880
Speaker 7: Warren at tight end. Came in with a Week one

1408
01:12:08,000 --> 01:12:11,559
Speaker 7: utilization score of ninety one, which was sixth best, targeted

1409
01:12:11,640 --> 01:12:15,120
Speaker 7: on thirty eight percent of the routes last week. Last year,

1410
01:12:15,160 --> 01:12:18,160
Speaker 7: the Broncos did struggle with high volume tight ends. Five

1411
01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:20,360
Speaker 7: different tight ends that saw at least ten targets.

1412
01:12:20,439 --> 01:12:20,880
Speaker 3: Last year.

1413
01:12:21,479 --> 01:12:24,360
Speaker 7: They averaged eight catches sixty seven yards and nearly a

1414
01:12:24,439 --> 01:12:26,599
Speaker 7: touchdown per game, so a B grade on Warren.

1415
01:12:29,160 --> 01:12:30,920
Speaker 3: All right, we will take a break.

1416
01:12:31,000 --> 01:12:34,519
Speaker 4: When we come back to Fantasy Football Weekly, another set

1417
01:12:34,560 --> 01:12:35,559
Speaker 4: of matchups before.

1418
01:12:35,439 --> 01:12:38,200
Speaker 3: You, plus premature speculation.

1419
01:12:38,400 --> 01:12:40,680
Speaker 4: Find out which players you should pick up now that

1420
01:12:40,880 --> 01:12:45,840
Speaker 4: will be coveted next week and already on your roster.

1421
01:12:46,120 --> 01:12:49,679
Speaker 4: Premature speculation coming up next. When we returned to Fantasy

1422
01:12:49,800 --> 01:13:20,920
Speaker 4: Football Weekly, final segment Fantasy Football Weekly, Paul Charchi and

1423
01:13:20,960 --> 01:13:25,280
Speaker 4: Scott Fish Matt Harrison with you as we do every

1424
01:13:25,320 --> 01:13:28,720
Speaker 4: week at this time, a segment we call premature speculation,

1425
01:13:29,000 --> 01:13:32,160
Speaker 4: where we give you three players to pick up now

1426
01:13:32,280 --> 01:13:34,320
Speaker 4: that everybody else can be trying to pick up next week,

1427
01:13:34,600 --> 01:13:35,760
Speaker 4: but they're already on your team.

1428
01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:37,639
Speaker 3: We begin with Scott Fish.

1429
01:13:38,479 --> 01:13:40,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm gonna go with kumanong guy. And it's not

1430
01:13:40,880 --> 01:13:43,280
Speaker 6: as much of my loong guy who I didn't really

1431
01:13:43,360 --> 01:13:46,400
Speaker 6: draft much in the off season. It's more about how

1432
01:13:46,520 --> 01:13:49,400
Speaker 6: bad DeAndre Swift looks. He was fifth worse than rushing

1433
01:13:49,479 --> 01:13:53,120
Speaker 6: yards over expectation per attempt, just over three yards per carry.

1434
01:13:53,360 --> 01:13:56,639
Speaker 6: He didn't even break a single tackle last week.

1435
01:13:57,280 --> 01:13:58,160
Speaker 3: He didn't even break that.

1436
01:13:59,360 --> 01:14:02,120
Speaker 6: Yeah, I can't imagine that. Ben Johnson is gonna love

1437
01:14:02,240 --> 01:14:05,280
Speaker 6: that for very much longer. He talked about liking Monong

1438
01:14:05,320 --> 01:14:08,519
Speaker 6: Guy in the in the preseason, and he's also talked

1439
01:14:08,520 --> 01:14:12,000
Speaker 6: about gating Manoguy more involved going forward. So maybe a

1440
01:14:12,120 --> 01:14:14,559
Speaker 6: stash just on the fact that the backs in front

1441
01:14:14,600 --> 01:14:17,760
Speaker 6: of him, Roshawn Johnson and DeAndre Swift are probably not

1442
01:14:17,880 --> 01:14:20,720
Speaker 6: the backs that Ben Johnson wants leading that team.

1443
01:14:21,680 --> 01:14:24,720
Speaker 3: All right, Matt, you're a premature speculation player. I've got

1444
01:14:24,760 --> 01:14:27,040
Speaker 3: a running back too. It's Breshard Smith of the Chiefs.

1445
01:14:27,080 --> 01:14:29,840
Speaker 7: We talked about concerns with Isaiah Pacheco and Kareem Hunt,

1446
01:14:29,880 --> 01:14:31,880
Speaker 7: and Breshard Smith is the only other Chiefs runner who

1447
01:14:31,880 --> 01:14:32,880
Speaker 7: got snaps last week.

1448
01:14:33,200 --> 01:14:34,639
Speaker 3: Well, he didn't get a target or a kerry.

1449
01:14:34,680 --> 01:14:36,240
Speaker 7: He was on the field for eight snaps and then

1450
01:14:36,240 --> 01:14:38,479
Speaker 7: he ran six pass routes while he was out there.

1451
01:14:38,520 --> 01:14:42,160
Speaker 7: And Thorne Eistrom talked him up about his Senior Bowl performance,

1452
01:14:42,200 --> 01:14:44,800
Speaker 7: saying that he was making linebackers and safeties look silly

1453
01:14:44,840 --> 01:14:47,120
Speaker 7: when they tried to cover him out of the backfield.

1454
01:14:47,160 --> 01:14:49,559
Speaker 7: I think he's the best passing option and it's not close,

1455
01:14:49,640 --> 01:14:51,600
Speaker 7: and he's gonna have a game very soon where he

1456
01:14:51,640 --> 01:14:53,320
Speaker 7: gets like five catches and one of them is a

1457
01:14:53,360 --> 01:14:56,360
Speaker 7: long one, and everyone will spend all their fab on him.

1458
01:14:56,400 --> 01:14:59,639
Speaker 4: So I can see it all right, Kansas City running

1459
01:14:59,680 --> 01:15:03,360
Speaker 4: back Shard Smith, I'm cheating. I'm going back to back

1460
01:15:03,439 --> 01:15:06,360
Speaker 4: with the guy it gave you last week because nobody listened.

1461
01:15:07,400 --> 01:15:12,160
Speaker 4: Kayshawn Boody rostered in one percent of ESPN leagues.

1462
01:15:12,800 --> 01:15:13,960
Speaker 3: One percent, that's it.

1463
01:15:14,720 --> 01:15:17,639
Speaker 4: So it turns out now that we have a data

1464
01:15:17,720 --> 01:15:23,000
Speaker 4: point from this year, he led the Patriots in snaps,

1465
01:15:23,120 --> 01:15:26,439
Speaker 4: targets and routes run ahead of Stefan Diggs and Pop Douglas.

1466
01:15:26,760 --> 01:15:27,479
Speaker 3: Kaishaan Boody.

1467
01:15:27,840 --> 01:15:31,280
Speaker 4: Going back to last year, He's had three games out

1468
01:15:31,320 --> 01:15:34,479
Speaker 4: of his last four, with over ninety five receiving yards

1469
01:15:34,640 --> 01:15:37,400
Speaker 4: and touchdowns in two of the last four games. So

1470
01:15:37,640 --> 01:15:39,599
Speaker 4: I'm going back to Kaishon Boody so you guys keep

1471
01:15:39,680 --> 01:15:43,640
Speaker 4: actually start picking him up. Premature speculation player. Let's go

1472
01:15:43,720 --> 01:15:46,840
Speaker 4: to our first and next of four matchups, beginning with

1473
01:15:49,000 --> 01:15:51,680
Speaker 4: the Chargers at Las Vegas. This is the Monday Night game,

1474
01:15:51,760 --> 01:15:53,640
Speaker 4: one of two Monday Night games. We start with Lad

1475
01:15:53,800 --> 01:15:57,360
Speaker 4: McConkie and Keenan Allen, both a grades coming off great

1476
01:15:57,400 --> 01:15:59,280
Speaker 4: games against a far better opponent last week.

1477
01:15:59,360 --> 01:15:59,719
Speaker 3: Kansas.

1478
01:16:00,600 --> 01:16:03,519
Speaker 4: The Raiders overhauled their secondary in the offseason, and they

1479
01:16:03,720 --> 01:16:07,800
Speaker 4: looked bad. Both of Lad mccacki and Keenan Allen run

1480
01:16:07,840 --> 01:16:09,639
Speaker 4: from the slot a lot where they get to match

1481
01:16:09,720 --> 01:16:12,760
Speaker 4: up against cornerback Darnay Holmes, who gave up seventy three

1482
01:16:12,880 --> 01:16:16,439
Speaker 4: yards and ranked his Pro Football Focus's worst fourth worst

1483
01:16:16,520 --> 01:16:20,320
Speaker 4: cornerback in the league last year. Quinton Johnston was might

1484
01:16:20,360 --> 01:16:23,200
Speaker 4: take a chance on me wide receiver. And if I

1485
01:16:23,360 --> 01:16:25,439
Speaker 4: like those guys a lot, I gotta like Justin Herbert,

1486
01:16:25,439 --> 01:16:27,439
Speaker 4: who comes in with an A grade. I thought it

1487
01:16:27,479 --> 01:16:31,759
Speaker 4: looked great to see him last week. He's finally looking healthy.

1488
01:16:32,280 --> 01:16:33,479
Speaker 3: He's not bang up.

1489
01:16:33,840 --> 01:16:37,320
Speaker 4: He's got a much easier assignment this week against Las Vegas,

1490
01:16:37,400 --> 01:16:40,120
Speaker 4: who struggled to stop Drake May and the opener. I

1491
01:16:40,280 --> 01:16:43,479
Speaker 4: like all his receivers A grade for Justin air Bear.

1492
01:16:44,680 --> 01:16:47,720
Speaker 4: Omario Hampton got almost all the work last week. I

1493
01:16:47,760 --> 01:16:51,560
Speaker 4: thought he looked pretty good. He might turn out to

1494
01:16:51,640 --> 01:16:55,680
Speaker 4: be very limited on horizontally moving plays. He's really good

1495
01:16:55,720 --> 01:16:57,800
Speaker 4: north south arder. What I didn't like about Omar and

1496
01:16:57,840 --> 01:17:00,200
Speaker 4: Hampton if you can turn him outside or if they

1497
01:17:00,200 --> 01:17:04,439
Speaker 4: have designed stretch plays. Hampton takes tackles for losses in

1498
01:17:04,560 --> 01:17:05,520
Speaker 4: those scenarios.

1499
01:17:05,920 --> 01:17:07,200
Speaker 5: Shades of Isaiah Crowell.

1500
01:17:08,320 --> 01:17:11,160
Speaker 4: Now that could be. That's an interesting one. Latavious Murray

1501
01:17:11,240 --> 01:17:14,879
Speaker 4: had that problem. The Raiders run defense dominated the Patriots

1502
01:17:14,920 --> 01:17:17,920
Speaker 4: and the opener. They held the Patriots runners to just

1503
01:17:18,040 --> 01:17:21,160
Speaker 4: three yards per carry. The Chargers run blocking is way better,

1504
01:17:21,240 --> 01:17:24,280
Speaker 4: though I think Hampton fares better here, gets plenty of work.

1505
01:17:24,400 --> 01:17:26,960
Speaker 4: A B grade on Omari and Hampton and Nazie Harris

1506
01:17:27,200 --> 01:17:29,559
Speaker 4: only eleven snaps last week. He's gonna have to get

1507
01:17:29,720 --> 01:17:32,360
Speaker 4: more playing time before we can consider putting him into

1508
01:17:32,400 --> 01:17:35,439
Speaker 4: our starting lineups. Let's go over to Las Vegas, where

1509
01:17:35,680 --> 01:17:38,920
Speaker 4: Ashton Genty a quiet debut. It was held by a

1510
01:17:39,000 --> 01:17:43,200
Speaker 4: short touchdown that masked some bummer metrics for Ashton Genty

1511
01:17:43,280 --> 01:17:45,439
Speaker 4: that I did not think we'd be talking about right now.

1512
01:17:45,920 --> 01:17:49,120
Speaker 4: Two yards per carry, a long run of just nine yards,

1513
01:17:49,600 --> 01:17:54,360
Speaker 4: and an offensive line that gave Genty negative three yards

1514
01:17:54,439 --> 01:17:58,040
Speaker 4: before contact. He was getting hit behind the line of

1515
01:17:58,120 --> 01:18:02,559
Speaker 4: scrimmage on average last week. No room to run for Genty.

1516
01:18:03,200 --> 01:18:06,559
Speaker 4: The Chargers run defense basically untested by Kansas City last

1517
01:18:06,680 --> 01:18:09,639
Speaker 4: year but finished seventh in Pro Football Focus is run

1518
01:18:09,720 --> 01:18:10,479
Speaker 4: defense grades.

1519
01:18:10,520 --> 01:18:12,320
Speaker 3: I've only got to be on Ashton genty.

1520
01:18:12,479 --> 01:18:15,920
Speaker 4: After the offensive line woes and a slow start last week,

1521
01:18:16,600 --> 01:18:20,120
Speaker 4: Let's go to the passing game. Brock Bowers did not

1522
01:18:20,280 --> 01:18:23,800
Speaker 4: practice Friday. His status for this game on Monday Night unclear.

1523
01:18:24,479 --> 01:18:28,519
Speaker 4: If you've got Brock Bowers, go get Michael Mayer. And

1524
01:18:28,640 --> 01:18:31,759
Speaker 4: if you don't have Brock Bowers, go block the person

1525
01:18:31,920 --> 01:18:35,760
Speaker 4: who's got Brock Bowers by picking up Mayer. If you're

1526
01:18:35,760 --> 01:18:39,360
Speaker 4: playing against Bowers, that's a defensive savvy move. And if

1527
01:18:39,400 --> 01:18:42,160
Speaker 4: you want to double down on that move the another

1528
01:18:42,280 --> 01:18:44,720
Speaker 4: Monday Night tight end to Tyler Conklin, you can pick

1529
01:18:44,760 --> 01:18:45,200
Speaker 4: him up too.

1530
01:18:45,479 --> 01:18:48,679
Speaker 3: Put the squeeze on that brock Bowers. Manager.

1531
01:18:49,280 --> 01:18:51,360
Speaker 4: Bowers comes in with a C grade if he is

1532
01:18:51,439 --> 01:18:53,760
Speaker 4: able to play in this one because of the risk

1533
01:18:53,920 --> 01:18:56,960
Speaker 4: of re injury. You know who I love in this game?

1534
01:18:57,439 --> 01:19:02,560
Speaker 4: A Fantasy Football Weekly favorite. Jacoby Myers. Ten targets in

1535
01:19:02,640 --> 01:19:06,200
Speaker 4: Week one, all ten catchuple passes. He'll see a lot

1536
01:19:06,280 --> 01:19:09,799
Speaker 4: of cornerback tar heb Still that is a Matt Harrison

1537
01:19:09,840 --> 01:19:10,519
Speaker 4: favorite right there.

1538
01:19:10,520 --> 01:19:13,000
Speaker 3: Oh, he's not real all he's not a real guy.

1539
01:19:13,720 --> 01:19:16,280
Speaker 6: Now I need to make a graphic of Jacoby Myers

1540
01:19:16,360 --> 01:19:20,519
Speaker 6: holding produce. All I do is produce. Could he be

1541
01:19:20,640 --> 01:19:24,600
Speaker 6: the distiller car Tarheb distill. I don't know, we'll have

1542
01:19:24,680 --> 01:19:29,160
Speaker 6: to we'll work shop that he gave up five receptions

1543
01:19:29,160 --> 01:19:31,240
Speaker 6: on five targets in his coverage last week. I love

1544
01:19:31,360 --> 01:19:34,800
Speaker 6: Jacoby Myers here with a B grade considered an A

1545
01:19:34,920 --> 01:19:38,040
Speaker 6: grade for him as well. Trey Tucker on the other side,

1546
01:19:38,360 --> 01:19:43,000
Speaker 6: played ninety percent of the snaps opposite Jacoby Myers. He's

1547
01:19:43,080 --> 01:19:46,639
Speaker 6: running the starters routes and he is a low volume,

1548
01:19:46,880 --> 01:19:49,640
Speaker 6: high risk, high reward spot starter. And I've got a

1549
01:19:49,680 --> 01:19:51,800
Speaker 6: C grade on him here. I like him in Best

1550
01:19:51,840 --> 01:19:55,640
Speaker 6: ball formats. He'll also see tar Heeb steal the producer

1551
01:19:55,840 --> 01:19:59,360
Speaker 6: as he is now called, but also some Dante Jackson,

1552
01:19:59,720 --> 01:20:02,920
Speaker 6: who was awful last year. How bad was Dante Jackson

1553
01:20:02,960 --> 01:20:06,320
Speaker 6: in his coverage, you might be asking. His Pro Football

1554
01:20:06,360 --> 01:20:10,200
Speaker 6: Focus ranking was cornerback one hundred and ninety five, one

1555
01:20:10,240 --> 01:20:14,719
Speaker 6: spot ahead of Kendallvildor. That means I've gotten a killdoor

1556
01:20:14,800 --> 01:20:17,280
Speaker 6: Vindo wildor reference in congratulations to me.

1557
01:20:17,600 --> 01:20:18,760
Speaker 3: I'm feeling very good about that.

1558
01:20:19,760 --> 01:20:22,240
Speaker 4: Gino Smith was might take a chance on meet quarterback

1559
01:20:22,439 --> 01:20:25,920
Speaker 4: in this game, and he comes in with a C grade.

1560
01:20:26,200 --> 01:20:28,599
Speaker 3: I could be talked into it be grade for him too, Scott.

1561
01:20:28,680 --> 01:20:30,479
Speaker 3: Let's go to Carolina taking on Arizona.

1562
01:20:31,080 --> 01:20:34,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, I only have two starting grades for Carolina. I

1563
01:20:34,280 --> 01:20:37,040
Speaker 6: have a bench on Bryce Young Cardinals' top ten against

1564
01:20:37,080 --> 01:20:40,200
Speaker 6: the pass They held down Spencer Rattler last week, but

1565
01:20:40,360 --> 01:20:42,760
Speaker 6: before that day, the six quarterbacks they faced the end

1566
01:20:42,760 --> 01:20:45,280
Speaker 6: of last year all under two hundred and thirty five yards,

1567
01:20:45,400 --> 01:20:49,599
Speaker 6: so he's on the bench. Tetero McMillan, unlike Ashton genty,

1568
01:20:49,960 --> 01:20:52,639
Speaker 6: did everything we expected him to do, led the Panthers

1569
01:20:52,680 --> 01:20:56,400
Speaker 6: and targets receptions yards twenty three percent, target share forty

1570
01:20:56,400 --> 01:20:59,519
Speaker 6: percent of the air yards. He does get second round

1571
01:20:59,680 --> 01:21:04,240
Speaker 6: rookie Will Johnson, who last week saw seven targets against him,

1572
01:21:04,560 --> 01:21:09,160
Speaker 6: allowed thirty two yards, defended three passes, had an interception

1573
01:21:09,439 --> 01:21:13,920
Speaker 6: called back, and he was PFF's second graded corner in

1574
01:21:14,040 --> 01:21:18,400
Speaker 6: his rookie debut Holy cow ninety point three coverage grade.

1575
01:21:18,560 --> 01:21:21,679
Speaker 6: He's also six foot two with the thirteen floor longest

1576
01:21:21,800 --> 01:21:23,920
Speaker 6: arms in the class, so he might be able to

1577
01:21:23,960 --> 01:21:26,200
Speaker 6: actually match up against tedtar ROAs. So I just have

1578
01:21:26,280 --> 01:21:28,840
Speaker 6: a B grade there. Cuba Hubbard, I also have a

1579
01:21:28,920 --> 01:21:31,040
Speaker 6: B grade. He was inefficient, but guess what he's still

1580
01:21:31,040 --> 01:21:34,080
Speaker 6: got nineteen touches in a few grabs most weeks. If

1581
01:21:34,120 --> 01:21:35,920
Speaker 6: you get that kind of volume, you're gonna get a

1582
01:21:36,000 --> 01:21:39,719
Speaker 6: Serira B. The game script might be rough for Cubas rushing,

1583
01:21:39,840 --> 01:21:41,519
Speaker 6: but he's going to get some pass game work if

1584
01:21:41,520 --> 01:21:45,160
Speaker 6: they fall behind. It's a good sized volume. C volume

1585
01:21:45,240 --> 01:21:47,320
Speaker 6: ced into a B. I'm gonna give him the B here.

1586
01:21:47,400 --> 01:21:50,519
Speaker 6: Because Kamara Miller Devin neil All last week went for

1587
01:21:50,600 --> 01:21:52,479
Speaker 6: four plus yards per clip. I think he's going to

1588
01:21:52,560 --> 01:21:56,439
Speaker 6: get more more out of his work on the Arizona side.

1589
01:21:56,840 --> 01:22:00,599
Speaker 6: I have a B grade on Caro. Kyler Murray allowed

1590
01:22:00,680 --> 01:22:04,120
Speaker 6: multiple scores to their final five quarterbacks they faced last year,

1591
01:22:04,160 --> 01:22:07,639
Speaker 6: to a total of sixteen scores in five games. Kyler's

1592
01:22:07,760 --> 01:22:09,840
Speaker 6: a little bit more like them than he is like

1593
01:22:09,960 --> 01:22:12,680
Speaker 6: Lawrence because he adds the rushing, so B grade for

1594
01:22:12,760 --> 01:22:17,799
Speaker 6: Kyler Murray. James Connor gets an A grade. Despite Benson

1595
01:22:17,840 --> 01:22:20,320
Speaker 6: taking a bunch of pass catching STAPs, Connor still got

1596
01:22:20,439 --> 01:22:23,639
Speaker 6: five of the six running back targets. The lead back

1597
01:22:23,680 --> 01:22:26,040
Speaker 6: has topped one hundred rushing yards in eight of the

1598
01:22:26,160 --> 01:22:30,200
Speaker 6: last nine games against the Panthers. Leadbacks in that stretch,

1599
01:22:30,760 --> 01:22:34,000
Speaker 6: averaging one hundred and seventy two total yards and a

1600
01:22:34,080 --> 01:22:37,280
Speaker 6: coin flip for a score. So A grade on James

1601
01:22:37,320 --> 01:22:40,000
Speaker 6: Connor and obviously Trey Benson I think gets some work

1602
01:22:40,040 --> 01:22:42,800
Speaker 6: as might take a chance on me player. Trey McBride's

1603
01:22:42,800 --> 01:22:44,560
Speaker 6: an easy A. We don't need to talk about that.

1604
01:22:44,840 --> 01:22:48,640
Speaker 6: But Marvin Harrison a B grade. Harrison had half the

1605
01:22:49,280 --> 01:22:53,559
Speaker 6: air yards, all the end zone targets. Harrison and McBride

1606
01:22:53,640 --> 01:22:56,040
Speaker 6: had over eighty percent of the team's receiving yards. He's

1607
01:22:56,040 --> 01:22:58,720
Speaker 6: gonna get Mike Jackson, who in Week one had a

1608
01:22:58,800 --> 01:23:02,519
Speaker 6: seventy eight point three cover seventeenth ranked cornerback by Pro

1609
01:23:02,640 --> 01:23:05,479
Speaker 6: Football Focus, but last year he had a one hre

1610
01:23:05,520 --> 01:23:08,400
Speaker 6: and twenty four point nine passer rating against. So maybe

1611
01:23:08,479 --> 01:23:10,280
Speaker 6: that was a little fools goal last week, but I'm

1612
01:23:10,280 --> 01:23:12,479
Speaker 6: still giving Marvin Harrison the B grade.

1613
01:23:13,640 --> 01:23:16,080
Speaker 4: All right, Matt, let's go over to your final matchup,

1614
01:23:16,160 --> 01:23:19,080
Speaker 4: and that's Tampa Bay taking on Houston on Monday night.

1615
01:23:19,439 --> 01:23:21,880
Speaker 7: Yeah, second Monday nighter. Here, I got Bucky Irving, who

1616
01:23:21,920 --> 01:23:23,960
Speaker 7: seems pretty safe. I got a B grade on him.

1617
01:23:24,000 --> 01:23:26,320
Speaker 7: I was nervous that his terrible pass blocking might have

1618
01:23:26,400 --> 01:23:28,559
Speaker 7: kept him off the field on passing downs while Wurfs

1619
01:23:28,680 --> 01:23:30,840
Speaker 7: was out, but he had seventy seven percent of the

1620
01:23:30,960 --> 01:23:33,360
Speaker 7: RB snaps and four of the five running back targets

1621
01:23:33,479 --> 01:23:36,719
Speaker 7: last week, and the Texans are pretty legit. But Kyron

1622
01:23:36,800 --> 01:23:39,280
Speaker 7: managed to sixty nine total yards in a score, so

1623
01:23:39,479 --> 01:23:41,280
Speaker 7: that seems like a pretty good comp for what Bucky

1624
01:23:41,320 --> 01:23:41,880
Speaker 7: could do this week.

1625
01:23:41,920 --> 01:23:42,639
Speaker 3: I'll call it a bee.

1626
01:23:43,439 --> 01:23:46,559
Speaker 7: Baker Mayfield has thrown for multiple touchdown passes in seven

1627
01:23:46,640 --> 01:23:49,200
Speaker 7: straight games, including last week at Atlanta.

1628
01:23:49,280 --> 01:23:49,639
Speaker 3: Amazing.

1629
01:23:50,160 --> 01:23:53,280
Speaker 7: In those last seven games, Baker has averaged four rushing

1630
01:23:53,320 --> 01:23:56,120
Speaker 7: attempts for thirty yards on the ground. He's a ground

1631
01:23:56,240 --> 01:24:01,120
Speaker 7: game helper. Six games. The Texan have only allowed six

1632
01:24:01,240 --> 01:24:03,960
Speaker 7: total passing scores, but some good running days to the

1633
01:24:04,040 --> 01:24:06,479
Speaker 7: only fleet of foot qbs they faced in that span.

1634
01:24:06,640 --> 01:24:09,200
Speaker 7: So a b for Baker and it bumped up because

1635
01:24:09,240 --> 01:24:12,000
Speaker 7: of his rushing prowess Mike.

1636
01:24:11,920 --> 01:24:15,280
Speaker 3: Evans and a Mecca Agbuca. It wasn't a fluke.

1637
01:24:15,320 --> 01:24:17,400
Speaker 7: Abuka was on the field and ran her out for

1638
01:24:17,560 --> 01:24:20,840
Speaker 7: ninety seven percent of Baker's passes, with Evans at eighty

1639
01:24:20,960 --> 01:24:24,040
Speaker 7: nine percent. Worth noting by the way Sterling Shepherd was

1640
01:24:24,080 --> 01:24:26,240
Speaker 7: on the field. A Ton as well had six targets,

1641
01:24:26,280 --> 01:24:28,840
Speaker 7: which was twenty two percent of his routes run if

1642
01:24:28,880 --> 01:24:31,360
Speaker 7: you're desperate at wide receiver. Shepherd's not the worst guy,

1643
01:24:31,840 --> 01:24:34,800
Speaker 7: but B grades to both Evans and Ebuka. But the

1644
01:24:34,880 --> 01:24:38,320
Speaker 7: Texans a play a lot of zone coverage. The Rams

1645
01:24:38,360 --> 01:24:40,639
Speaker 7: figured it out last week and picked it apart. Puka

1646
01:24:40,720 --> 01:24:43,000
Speaker 7: and Adams combined for fourteen catches in one hundred and

1647
01:24:43,040 --> 01:24:46,479
Speaker 7: eighty one yards. On the Texan side, Chubbs might take

1648
01:24:46,520 --> 01:24:48,639
Speaker 7: a chance on me running back, and then there's only

1649
01:24:48,720 --> 01:24:50,639
Speaker 7: really two other Texans you can start.

1650
01:24:50,840 --> 01:24:51,120
Speaker 2: C J.

1651
01:24:51,320 --> 01:24:54,760
Speaker 7: Stroud very disappointing week one on the stat sheet with

1652
01:24:54,840 --> 01:24:56,439
Speaker 7: only one hundred and eighty eight yards and a pick,

1653
01:24:56,560 --> 01:24:58,360
Speaker 7: but I'm holding out hope and I'll give him a

1654
01:24:58,400 --> 01:25:02,160
Speaker 7: B grade as in bounce back because Michael Pennix was

1655
01:25:02,240 --> 01:25:04,320
Speaker 7: able to get to two hunder ninety eight passing yards

1656
01:25:04,400 --> 01:25:07,519
Speaker 7: last week with a similarly bad offensive line. They're on

1657
01:25:07,560 --> 01:25:10,120
Speaker 7: their third string right tackle. I would hope that the

1658
01:25:10,200 --> 01:25:12,280
Speaker 7: Texans line can do just enough to give Stroud some

1659
01:25:12,400 --> 01:25:16,040
Speaker 7: time in this one, so be there. Nico Collins was

1660
01:25:16,080 --> 01:25:18,639
Speaker 7: only targeted on seventeen percent of his routes in Week

1661
01:25:18,720 --> 01:25:21,439
Speaker 7: one and twenty seven percent of his routes last year,

1662
01:25:21,560 --> 01:25:24,280
Speaker 7: and I bet they have to figure that out real quick.

1663
01:25:24,680 --> 01:25:26,439
Speaker 7: He was still in the field for eighty four percent

1664
01:25:26,479 --> 01:25:30,120
Speaker 7: of his snaps despite Stroud throwing to everyone else last week.

1665
01:25:30,160 --> 01:25:33,280
Speaker 7: I like Collins matchup against Zion mccollin and Jamel Dean,

1666
01:25:34,479 --> 01:25:36,880
Speaker 7: but the Falcons kept a lot of things underneath against

1667
01:25:36,920 --> 01:25:40,680
Speaker 7: Tampa last week, and I'm just I'm hopeful that it's

1668
01:25:40,800 --> 01:25:43,400
Speaker 7: just a turnaround here for Nico so a B grade,

1669
01:25:43,439 --> 01:25:46,200
Speaker 7: but I'm a bit nervous about this passing game because

1670
01:25:46,520 --> 01:25:51,080
Speaker 7: they're throwing to everyone, including Xavier Hutchinson, Justin Watson, Jaden Higgins,

1671
01:25:51,200 --> 01:25:53,920
Speaker 7: Jalen Noel, Dalton Schultz Cad Stover all had at least

1672
01:25:53,960 --> 01:25:54,840
Speaker 7: two targets each.

1673
01:25:55,760 --> 01:25:56,400
Speaker 3: That's gross.

1674
01:25:56,840 --> 01:25:59,759
Speaker 7: However, had Stover did just hit ir So a sneaky

1675
01:25:59,800 --> 01:26:03,120
Speaker 7: tie end Dalton Schultz if you need the brock Bauers

1676
01:26:03,200 --> 01:26:06,320
Speaker 7: replacement on Monday Night. The tight ends were targeted nine

1677
01:26:06,400 --> 01:26:09,080
Speaker 7: times last week, and that could be all Dalton Schultz

1678
01:26:09,479 --> 01:26:11,519
Speaker 7: this week nine times.

1679
01:26:11,760 --> 01:26:15,599
Speaker 4: The Sunday nighter is Atlanta taking on Minnesota. I love

1680
01:26:15,720 --> 01:26:18,840
Speaker 4: Drake London in this game. Fifteen targets last week, although

1681
01:26:18,880 --> 01:26:21,439
Speaker 4: Drake Mooney coming back meet's probably a few less targets.

1682
01:26:21,640 --> 01:26:26,200
Speaker 4: The Vikings secondary posted a PFF coverage rating thirty first

1683
01:26:26,320 --> 01:26:28,760
Speaker 4: in the league last week. Now, fortunately for them, the

1684
01:26:28,840 --> 01:26:32,360
Speaker 4: Bears misfired on open targets, but that may not happen here.

1685
01:26:32,720 --> 01:26:35,200
Speaker 4: The Vikings are going to be without starting cornerback Jeff

1686
01:26:35,200 --> 01:26:38,760
Speaker 4: Okuda and starting safety Harrison Smith in this game. That

1687
01:26:38,960 --> 01:26:42,439
Speaker 4: and London's got a huge size advantage over the Viking

1688
01:26:42,600 --> 01:26:46,120
Speaker 4: small corners. A great on Drake London, B great on

1689
01:26:46,240 --> 01:26:48,640
Speaker 4: Darnell Mooney, a great dart throw with this banged up

1690
01:26:48,720 --> 01:26:52,719
Speaker 4: Viking secondary, and Mooney put up six catches one hundred

1691
01:26:52,720 --> 01:26:56,000
Speaker 4: and forty two yards when these teams met last year.

1692
01:26:56,600 --> 01:26:59,040
Speaker 4: And if I like London Mooney, I like Pennix too.

1693
01:26:59,479 --> 01:27:01,280
Speaker 4: By the way, I think it's a B grade on Mooney.

1694
01:27:01,360 --> 01:27:04,160
Speaker 4: I've got a C grade on Pennis. Forty two passes

1695
01:27:04,280 --> 01:27:06,840
Speaker 4: last week, a career high. The running game couldn't get

1696
01:27:06,880 --> 01:27:10,120
Speaker 4: going last week, and they trusted Pennix to throw the ball.

1697
01:27:10,720 --> 01:27:13,320
Speaker 4: It was only his fifth NFL start. And I do

1698
01:27:13,479 --> 01:27:16,439
Speaker 4: think the Vikings defensive wizard Brian Flores will try to

1699
01:27:16,520 --> 01:27:18,640
Speaker 4: mess with them a lot pre snap changes and a

1700
01:27:18,680 --> 01:27:21,839
Speaker 4: lot of blitzing. But still these matchups are really positive

1701
01:27:21,840 --> 01:27:24,519
Speaker 4: for his receivers. C grade on Pennix and of course

1702
01:27:24,680 --> 01:27:27,280
Speaker 4: an A grade on Bijon Robinson. You don't need a

1703
01:27:27,320 --> 01:27:29,240
Speaker 4: lot of detail on that, but a bounce back from

1704
01:27:29,320 --> 01:27:33,280
Speaker 4: last week's two yards per carry, probably coming in six

1705
01:27:33,400 --> 01:27:37,000
Speaker 4: catches one hundred yards last week. The Vikings did held

1706
01:27:37,080 --> 01:27:39,360
Speaker 4: him in check mostly last year when they met, but

1707
01:27:39,560 --> 01:27:41,680
Speaker 4: still he scored a touchdown lack in that game, and

1708
01:27:41,720 --> 01:27:45,280
Speaker 4: we like him here too. Justin Jefferson obvious a grade

1709
01:27:45,320 --> 01:27:47,479
Speaker 4: for the Vikings side, and none of the other wide

1710
01:27:47,520 --> 01:27:49,880
Speaker 4: receivers are going to get bench are going to get

1711
01:27:49,960 --> 01:27:53,559
Speaker 4: positive grades here. Adam Thielen was mostly unused last week,

1712
01:27:53,680 --> 01:27:56,439
Speaker 4: just seventeen routes run did catch a two point conversion,

1713
01:27:56,439 --> 01:27:57,639
Speaker 4: but we're not going to start him here.

1714
01:27:58,120 --> 01:27:58,360
Speaker 3: TJ.

1715
01:27:58,560 --> 01:28:01,920
Speaker 4: Hockinson surprised me with only four targets last week, and

1716
01:28:02,000 --> 01:28:05,080
Speaker 4: I'm worried about his volume. When JJ McCarthy only throws

1717
01:28:05,120 --> 01:28:07,880
Speaker 4: twenty one times despite a deeply negative gain script, I

1718
01:28:08,200 --> 01:28:10,800
Speaker 4: don't know that Hockinson's gonna get a lot more use here.

1719
01:28:10,920 --> 01:28:14,240
Speaker 4: And then Atlanta didn't give up any tight end receptions

1720
01:28:14,640 --> 01:28:15,760
Speaker 4: last week at all.

1721
01:28:16,479 --> 01:28:20,040
Speaker 3: So Hockinson just a C grade and that brings us

1722
01:28:20,080 --> 01:28:21,360
Speaker 3: to the running game for the Vikings.

1723
01:28:21,720 --> 01:28:25,920
Speaker 4: Jordan Mason clearly the better runner over Aaron Jones last week,

1724
01:28:25,960 --> 01:28:28,720
Speaker 4: he had double the rushing attempts. He really needs a

1725
01:28:28,840 --> 01:28:32,639
Speaker 4: goal line opportunity to materialize. Maybe happens, maybe a doesn't.

1726
01:28:32,640 --> 01:28:36,040
Speaker 4: But the Falcons run defense shockingly good last week. Bucky

1727
01:28:36,040 --> 01:28:38,599
Speaker 4: Irving held to just two point six yards per gary.

1728
01:28:39,600 --> 01:28:42,160
Speaker 3: He gets a C grade. Aaron Jones C grade in

1729
01:28:42,320 --> 01:28:43,600
Speaker 3: PPR only.

1730
01:28:43,520 --> 01:28:45,360
Speaker 4: We saw that he's going to be much more of

1731
01:28:45,400 --> 01:28:47,920
Speaker 4: a pass catcher than a runner last week, and I

1732
01:28:48,000 --> 01:28:50,960
Speaker 4: think that continues here. Back to Irving scored by the

1733
01:28:51,040 --> 01:28:53,680
Speaker 4: air last week, and maybe Aaron Jones can do two

1734
01:28:53,680 --> 01:28:54,759
Speaker 4: in a row as a receiver.

1735
01:28:56,000 --> 01:28:57,240
Speaker 3: Thanks for listening, everybody.

1736
01:28:57,800 --> 01:29:00,439
Speaker 4: Fantasy Football Weekly will be back next week for a
