The camera highlights in the 66 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 1: world of sports, breaking breaking news, breaking news whistles. I 67 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 1: like they continue to follow breaking news news. It is 68 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 1: on the key. Why all right? We'll start in Tampa Bay, 69 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 1: Austin Sofarian Jenkins was arrested early Friday morning for a 70 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 1: d u y. He was then promptly cut by the team. 71 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 1: He faces a multiple game suspension if he does come back, uh, 72 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,720 Speaker 1: if he gets picked up anywhere, I'm assuming. I don't 73 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 1: know what kind of value he has to anybody else. 74 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 1: But from a fantasy perspective, what are we talking here? 75 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:28,760 Speaker 1: Obviously we're cutting as j Cameron Bright then yeah, look 76 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 1: how excited out all of a suddenets to be smug 77 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 1: because he was riding the break train in the preseason 78 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: and man it was lonely on that break train. But 79 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:40,920 Speaker 1: it's excited for him now. I mean, he's not gonna 80 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 1: get funnel the million targets or anything, but it's it 81 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 1: helps clear up what was a really clouded position group 82 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 1: because Bright A, s J and Brandon Myers were splitting 83 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: snaps and playing time and targets and Luke Stocker to god, yeah, 84 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: I want none of that, is anyone know. I'm not 85 00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:58,919 Speaker 1: gonna go out and pick up break, but it's certainly 86 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 1: a situation a monitor now. I think if you're desperate 87 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,280 Speaker 1: at tight End, I could see an upright pick up 88 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 1: right now. Um, there's been so many tight End you're 89 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: that desperate. Jack Doyle is still hanging out there. Something 90 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: hell that Jared Cook is still out there. Yeah, baby, 91 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,159 Speaker 1: Jared Cook is out. But you know, I'm trying to 92 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:17,720 Speaker 1: hold onto this. I'm trying to hold on to that 93 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: that Jared that Jared Cook, he's making it, he's making 94 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: Why won't you let me love you? Jared Cook? Why 95 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 1: won't you let me love you? I don't well if 96 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:29,040 Speaker 1: he's listening to this podcasts. We have been talking about 97 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 1: this though, Jared Cook. I feel like we're getting off 98 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 1: topic very quickly here, but perfect I was just like, hey, man, 99 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 1: I'm not a believer in Jared Cook. You guys talk 100 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,239 Speaker 1: me into it. I like it. I think Matt Harmon 101 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: just straight and used math on me to tell me 102 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 1: that Jared Cook Cook is going to be good. We did. 103 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: We did use math on the podcast, which is encouraged 104 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,600 Speaker 1: because this is a math game. It's actually discouraged. It's 105 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:54,960 Speaker 1: not what Yeah, I was gonna say. This is confusing. 106 00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 1: I'm sitting between so many spreadsheets right now. But Jared 107 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: Cook did lead the packer is in snaps last week, 108 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 1: as Cynthia is kind of alluding to, the Lions are 109 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 1: super generous to tight ends eight yards in each game 110 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,839 Speaker 1: three touchdowns Game one, one touchdown game two, and that's 111 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 1: something that's rolling over from last year too. Yeah, so 112 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 1: that's that's always an encourage andre Levy. As long as 113 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,599 Speaker 1: you Andre Levies out, there's no I mean that linebacker, 114 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 1: that's who you kind of looked too against tight ends. 115 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 1: I'm saying, target those tight ends against the Lions. I 116 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,479 Speaker 1: think you need to save some of these beautiful nuggets 117 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: for later. They might uh. Indianapolis Dante Moncree fractured shoulder 118 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: blade scapula as it is officially called fractured scapula out 119 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: four to six. Philip Dorset a must add in all formats. 120 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: I don't care what format you're in. Philip Dorset is 121 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 1: absolutely worth a pick up here. What should we expect, 122 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,160 Speaker 1: Cynthia Freeland from Philip Dorsett. I'm I think that I 123 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,159 Speaker 1: wrote about slating him for eight targets and things gonna 124 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 1: catch five of them, So okay, that's where I have him. 125 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: I think he's going to see a little bit less 126 00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 1: of Jason Barrett then oh yeah for d Wild Yeah yeah, 127 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:03,840 Speaker 1: there's no doubt about it. And uh and I'll tell 128 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 1: you this, it's supposed to be, at least on paper, 129 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: a high scoring affair between Indianapolis and San Diego. I 130 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: can't there's not a cult or a Charger that I 131 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 1: wouldn't advocate. Oh yeah, I I I like Frank gorelot 132 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: this week too. I mean, I know that's not where 133 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 1: we're going here. But just you mentioned Chargers and Colts. 134 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 1: That's right. I was trying not to say anything until 135 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: you I thought you were going to do the whole 136 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: the what Jack Doyle, Oh Jack, both got a bump 137 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 1: from Oh yeah, they do. Um. I'm not saying that 138 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 1: it's going to be two touchdowns Jack Doyle, but I 139 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: think but he gets looks in the red zone, which 140 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: is important, you know. Um, And it does go back 141 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 1: to what the Colts did previously when Kobe Fleaner was 142 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: still collecting mail in Indianapolis, is that they ran two 143 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 1: tight ends. They threw the both tight ends. It just 144 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: turned out he's still dropping mail too. I mean there's 145 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: there's that. Yeah, I mean that's there's that wasn't unable 146 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: to get opened from linebackers. Yes, there was that happening 147 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: as well. Uh Um. I've got this man, I've got 148 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 1: this whole thing about Jack Doe. I really like him. 149 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: Bold prediction on this podcast right now. I'm saying he 150 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 1: is this year's Gary Barnage. I I think he is 151 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 1: going to be this year's Gary Barnage. I I really 152 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,679 Speaker 1: really like what I've seen from him. And granted a limited, 153 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 1: uh small sample size, but I think about the opportunities 154 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 1: that are available to Jack Doyle. I think about the 155 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 1: offense Andrew Luck leans on his tight ends a little bit. 156 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 1: I know Dwayne Allen is there and he's gonna see 157 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: a bump too. But here's the thing I think about 158 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: Rod Chazinski. He's a former tight end. He's got nine 159 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 1: years of of tight end coaching experience. He's worked with 160 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 1: guys like Antonio Gates there in San Diego, Greg Olsen, 161 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: and the aforementioned Gary Barnage. Um and the team absolutely 162 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 1: love this guy, Jack Doyle. Um. All the reports are 163 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,559 Speaker 1: just glowing about about Jack and and the other thing. 164 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 1: And I think you'd appreciate this is that he's got 165 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 1: a percent catchery, which is insanely hot. Yeah. Well, this 166 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: was gonna be a three wide receiver offense before Moncrieffe 167 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 1: got hurt, which Jesus, by the way, such an annoying things. 168 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 1: Which is funny because I was talking to Fabs about 169 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 1: this yesterday, like he was, I kept saying, I was like, oh, 170 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:16,719 Speaker 1: this guy's the easiest breakout Canada to spot this year. 171 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 1: Something something has to go wrong. Well, something went from something. Yeah, 172 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 1: probably is well most things are my fault. Yeah that is. 173 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 1: I am de shrieking very hard at the at the 174 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 1: prospects of Montcreefe missing four to six weeks. But anyways, uh, 175 00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 1: now as we're talking about this is gonna probably go 176 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: back to a two tight end offense. Jack Doyle played 177 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 1: six of the snaps UH in their game against Denver 178 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 1: and their depth beyond uh Tilton and Dorset now is 179 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: pretty ghastly fun by Chester Rogers. Yeah right, five bucks 180 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 1: to you at home if you know who they are 181 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 1: or when they where they went to Cold no idea. 182 00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 1: All right, let's go to San Diego. Antonio Gates looks 183 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 1: if he's probably not gonna play. From all the reports 184 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: out there, he's got a bad hamstring. Um. The reports 185 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 1: on Hunter Henry in practice this week have been pretty good. Um, 186 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 1: but I just I mean, look, I know we're saying 187 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 1: fire up all your cults and all your chargers, but 188 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 1: Hunter Henry, I believe a nice young prospect. But I 189 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: believe I just don't believe in him. I believe you believe. 190 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 1: I mean, he can have Antonio Gates numbers. Let me 191 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,839 Speaker 1: just you know, let me just tamp that down before 192 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 1: you guys start quoting me out of context and stuff. 193 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 1: But what I watched the Hunter Henry on tape, watching 194 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 1: this college tape, the dudes got skills. I mean, he's 195 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:36,840 Speaker 1: an athletic guy. They thought Larry's green was expendable basically 196 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,959 Speaker 1: because because the Hunter Henry, so I do think that 197 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:42,679 Speaker 1: he can go in. He can get a lot of targets. 198 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: The pecking order in this offense is going to be 199 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:48,679 Speaker 1: Travis Benjamin, then Tyrone Williams and probably don trelle Inman. 200 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 1: But don't sleep on Hunter Henry, especially because he could 201 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 1: be a guy in the red zone. It becomes, you know, 202 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,559 Speaker 1: kind of popular. I mean, I really felt like, I know, 203 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 1: rookie tit Ends never do much of anything. But if 204 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 1: there were two guys that could possibly break that one 205 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: was Hunter Henry. The other one was Austin Hooper down 206 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 1: there in Atlanta. Okay, so there you go. Uh, And 207 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 1: I know Hunter Henry was a favorite of Daniel Jeremiah's 208 00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,719 Speaker 1: as well. Um called him a great move tight end 209 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 1: and really like the pass catching ability that he saw 210 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 1: from Hunter Henry. But just going back to what you 211 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: just said about rookie tight ends not doing well in 212 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: the NFL and Philip Rivers to man, the thing about 213 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 1: Philip is that when he trusts a guy, he will 214 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 1: pound that guy with the markets. But I don't know 215 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:33,559 Speaker 1: if he's built that, um that trust level with Hunter Henry. 216 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 1: So we shall see. In Cleveland, Corey Coleman broke his 217 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 1: hand in practice. I think that happened on Tuesday. Uh, 218 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 1: he's out four to six weeks now, it's a third 219 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 1: string rookie quarterback Cody Kessler uh from USC. He's set 220 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:52,199 Speaker 1: to start. They've got a converted quarterback uh In Terrell 221 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 1: Prior as their number one wide receiver, um Wall Godly. 222 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 1: I mean, here's the Can you play Isaiah crow Well? 223 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 1: He had a great game. Duke Johnson has done nothing 224 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 1: this offseason? Can you play him? Can you play the 225 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 1: barnyard Dog? Are any of these guys playing nonoop? I 226 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 1: don't know. I'm still tempted to play Isaiah Crowell because 227 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 1: of what we saw. Yeah, because the volume and I'm 228 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 1: I mean, they're not gonna roll Duke Johnson out there. 229 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 1: We've seen that so far through the first two games. 230 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 1: And Crowell, they've been running him straight downhill, which is 231 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 1: what the Dolphins struggle with which Garrett Blunt exploited that 232 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 1: in too. They play that wide nine defensive scheme. So 233 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 1: I think that you can still get some usable points 234 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 1: out of Isaaah Crowell. The question is are they ever 235 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 1: going to get in the red zone in scoring position? 236 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 1: But at least he's shown the ability to break off 237 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: long run. I mean to go against your your the 238 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 1: conversation you and I had the first couple of weeks 239 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,320 Speaker 1: this season about level of quarterback play and how it 240 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:55,720 Speaker 1: impacts running backs. And look, I'm talking about just for 241 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,439 Speaker 1: this week. I want to. I want to get behind 242 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 1: Cody Kesler, he's a fellow USC guy, but I just can't, man, 243 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 1: I can't. Yeah, I'm talking about more just for this 244 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: week because I think the matchup is good with the 245 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 1: against the Dolphins defense. But yeah, this definitely dampers crow 246 00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 1: l season long value, which was looking nice before this. 247 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:13,960 Speaker 1: I mean, I think I don't see how Miami just 248 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 1: doesn't stack the box. I mean, put nine guys, ten 249 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 1: guys in there and and stop the run, even from 250 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: a wide nine, so they can get to the path, 251 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 1: they can get to the passer and still plug up 252 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 1: all the running ones. We've seen Rickie quarterbacks do erratic 253 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 1: things though, and I'm not talking about the better ones 254 00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 1: that we've seen, but I'm saying, like, when you're in 255 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 1: a weird situation, you can see some odd things happen. 256 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 1: And I do think that Dolphins defense is not I 257 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: think they're actually better than I anticipated them to be 258 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 1: for this season. I'm not saying that they're, you know, 259 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:43,960 Speaker 1: top two defense or anything, but I think that they 260 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:47,200 Speaker 1: are a formidable defense. I'm actually more concerned about what's 261 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 1: happening on the other side of that matchup, just in general. 262 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 1: What does that mean. Joe Hayden may may or may 263 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 1: not play. It's not looking like very good for him. 264 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,679 Speaker 1: I'm curious to see which pass catcher gets the line 265 00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:59,840 Speaker 1: share of the targets of this game. We've seen in 266 00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 1: the pasted with Davonte Parker and Charvis Landry's numbers go up, 267 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 1: which is sometimes counterintuitive when you look at wide receivers. 268 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 1: So to me, it's going to be interesting to see 269 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 1: you and Kenny Stills has worked his way into a 270 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 1: you know, he does take some targets away from the 271 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 1: other guys. So for me, the more interesting matchup is 272 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 1: on the other side. And will even you know be 273 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 1: passing the ball, you know after the second the second half, 274 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 1: I hear you. And then that begs the question, though, 275 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 1: who the hell is going to be the running back? 276 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 1: Because we think that this is going to be a 277 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 1: really run heavy game script where the Dolphins get ahead early, 278 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 1: but we know the coaching staff has soured on j 279 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: I to put it kindly, Uh, there's Isaiah pe there's 280 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 1: Damien Williams, any of these guys, Jake, the Drake is 281 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: the one that I think, because to me, the logic goes, 282 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 1: if this is an Adam Gays pick, He's gonna want 283 00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,240 Speaker 1: to see what he picked, and this is a great 284 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 1: game script to see Kenny. Is he learning my playbook 285 00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 1: doing the things that I've asked of him? Is he 286 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 1: going to get me that chunk yardage that we play 287 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 1: that we scheme for in this particular situation. You know, 288 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 1: to me, if I'm taking a risk on any one 289 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 1: of their running backs, it's going to be Drake, because 290 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 1: I honestly think that they want to see, you know, 291 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 1: like what do they have. I also think he's the 292 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 1: best athlete they got in the backfield. But the only 293 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 1: problem is that his skill set screams, I mean just 294 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 1: screams out change the pace pass catching guy, which they 295 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: might just have him out there as a pass catcher. 296 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 1: I just I think this is I think it's right. 297 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,280 Speaker 1: I think we see here what he's capable of. I 298 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 1: don't disagree with that Tyler effort. They're in Cincinnati back 299 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: up practice, but obviously ruled out here for uh A 300 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:39,640 Speaker 1: week three. The only reason I put him on this 301 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 1: list is because you know, I've seen him on waivers 302 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 1: in a couple of different leagues. If he's out there, 303 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 1: he's absolutely worth a pick up, no question, especially because 304 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: the tight end position this year. We thought it was 305 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 1: going to be deeper and not. Tight ends are always 306 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 1: a disaster. I mean, it's a disaster on top of 307 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 1: it the Bengals, and I think this is going to change. 308 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 1: But right now they're throwing it more than seventy percent 309 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 1: of the time in the red zone. I think they're 310 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 1: throwing it like sent of their plays overall overall, that's 311 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 1: overall's more. It's also more than seventy percent in the 312 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 1: red zone, So which is why I like c J. 313 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:15,880 Speaker 1: But they tried, they tried, tried, helped me hook it 314 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 1: up in the danger zone. Didn't work out. Uh, Sammy 315 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 1: Watkins doesn't sound like he's gonna be a go I 316 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 1: think what Rex Ryan said, it's he's very doubtful to 317 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 1: play is exact words. I think we're probably not looking good, 318 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 1: probably not looking which I think should be a new 319 00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 1: if we're changed up the injury designation, like doubtful. Probably. Uh. 320 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 1: There was a report today that that said that he 321 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 1: was in walkthrough Sammy Watkins was and he got his 322 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 1: footstepped on in walkthroughs and that aggravated his foot injury. 323 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 1: Which is I mean, so it's baffling. I've been reading that. 324 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 1: It's not that it's the it aggravates the his pain tolerance. 325 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: It's not that it's structurally unsound. Is that he's in 326 00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 1: a significant amount of pain, whether or not. You know, 327 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:05,480 Speaker 1: either way, we don't want him in pain. And it 328 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 1: doesn't seem like he's going to be a big factory 329 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,879 Speaker 1: even if he did somehow suit up. But you know, 330 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,200 Speaker 1: as they've got a horrendous man. This is against a 331 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 1: horrible men. Their offense in every way, shape and form. 332 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:17,160 Speaker 1: I wrote about this in the next Gens to Ask 333 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,640 Speaker 1: column this week. There's gonna be more than twenty points 334 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:23,320 Speaker 1: scored in the whole game. I think Arizona Arizona, I think, 335 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 1: But do you like, do you think we see any 336 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 1: points or do you think we see Drew stan I 337 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: think Drew Stanton is more likely. That's the funny points now, 338 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 1: because we could see like Arizona gets up seventeen to 339 00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: nothing and then that's it. That's what I'm saying. They 340 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:39,520 Speaker 1: just they just sit on the ball for the saying 341 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 1: I need my David Johnson, but they just screen but 342 00:17:42,840 --> 00:17:44,760 Speaker 1: built that. Now you're right there. That is the thing though, 343 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:47,399 Speaker 1: that that I feel like they could also go thirty 344 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,360 Speaker 1: eight to nothing because even though this is in Buffalo, 345 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor's average time to throw is the highest in 346 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,439 Speaker 1: the NFL Arizona blitz Blitz is more than any other 347 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 1: team in the NFL. That's a bad combination if you're 348 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:01,440 Speaker 1: holding the ball for a long time, which makes sense, 349 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:03,880 Speaker 1: not only is he, you know, scrambling behind the line 350 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 1: of scrimmage, but they also run a deep passing game 351 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 1: which takes more time to develop. And by the time 352 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:10,520 Speaker 1: that pressure is there, Ti poor tie God is going 353 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: to get throttled. And especially even if Watkins was gonna play, 354 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 1: he was probably gonna get locked down by Patrick Peterson 355 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,159 Speaker 1: all day long. Now what are they gonna lock up? 356 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 1: Greg Salis and like who can only hope to contain? 357 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 1: All right? I mean that's to actually stop him when 358 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 1: you have a chance to funnel you know, eight to 359 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:31,679 Speaker 1: ten targets to Greg Salas. If you're really desperate on 360 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 1: a tight end, you could actually give the Charles Clay 361 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,440 Speaker 1: that's not like it makes me physically ill even thinking 362 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 1: about starting Charles Clay. But I understand the logic. I'm 363 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 1: definitely not saying it's safe, but I mean, how desperate 364 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:47,359 Speaker 1: are you and you could potentially I mean, it's not 365 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 1: a bad at least effort, right, If you're gonna make risk, 366 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 1: at least it's a smarter risk than someone else. I mean, 367 00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 1: we were just talking about Jack freaking Doyle, So I 368 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 1: think I think we can discuss sure. I mean, where 369 00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 1: it times grape in the bottom of aarra, because really 370 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 1: the tight end position this year is shean while we're 371 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,679 Speaker 1: ignoring the second highest scoring tight end, Vance McDonald. He 372 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:11,920 Speaker 1: needs his do because he's taught three a year. I 373 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 1: low key Vance McDonald this week. Do you generally had 374 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:21,720 Speaker 1: trouble with tight ends? And I mean you watch the 375 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 1: way they play defense. Part of what they do is 376 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 1: they want to keep everything in front of them. That's 377 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 1: why they generally struggle with a lot of short passing 378 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:32,400 Speaker 1: games and teams that can remain patient and work that underneath. 379 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 1: They didn't have success. And so I think this is 380 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 1: a situation where you see Vance McDonald and maybe even 381 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 1: a little bit of Garrett Sellek getting some work underneath 382 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 1: and doing something. I think McDonald is more athletic of 383 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:45,440 Speaker 1: the two. But you know, the tight ends might surprise 384 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: you a little bit this week. Hell, I'm gonna lead 385 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 1: with a bunch of writers this week and I'm starting 386 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,119 Speaker 1: Jacob Tammy. So this is where we are. This is 387 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 1: where we are with tight ends. So Charles Clay back 388 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 1: to the point, very much an option. I agree. New 389 00:19:57,359 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 1: York Jets Brendan Marshall is questionable. Eric Decker is likely 390 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 1: to play. Uh. They play at Kansas City this weekend. 391 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:08,280 Speaker 1: Brandon Marshall is kind of man. When that injury happened 392 00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 1: on Thursday, it looked bad, It looked really bad, but 393 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 1: it did. But it doesn't. I mean, it doesn't look 394 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 1: like it, but it's not actually that serious. Brandon Marshall 395 00:20:19,840 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 1: is trying to play through it and just kind of 396 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 1: given his history, I'd be shocked if he doesn't play, 397 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:26,640 Speaker 1: I'd be shocked. I think he's playing. Yeah, I think 398 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,399 Speaker 1: he's playing too, And if he does, it's gonna be 399 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:32,159 Speaker 1: hard to benjam I just cannot see it. I get 400 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 1: the injury concerns, but I mean, the Chiefs aren't that scary, 401 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:39,120 Speaker 1: So I'll invest in in Brandon Marshall this week. There's 402 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:42,120 Speaker 1: no question all right. In Chicago, Jake Cutler likely out 403 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 1: with a thumb ligament injury. He's doubtful to play, as 404 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:49,640 Speaker 1: reported by the team al Sean Jeffrey hasn't didn't practice 405 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 1: either Thursday or Friday. I'm not sure if you practice Wednesday. Uh, 406 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,960 Speaker 1: they go on the road. They played Dallas. But it 407 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 1: sounds like from all the reports that Alshon Jeffrey should 408 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 1: be good to go against Dallas, which means probably should 409 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:04,640 Speaker 1: get him into your line. But I get the concerns 410 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:06,879 Speaker 1: over Jay Cutler not playing and Brian Hoyer being your 411 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,920 Speaker 1: starting quarterback. But again, man, is it really could really 412 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 1: be worse? Well, look, I think I think Jay Cutler 413 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:15,399 Speaker 1: is a better quarterback in real life than than Brian Hoyer. 414 00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 1: But from a fantasy perspective, I'll say this, um, and 415 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:21,199 Speaker 1: I don't I don't have any numbers to back me up, 416 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 1: but just eyeball test. Hoyer loves to jam down his 417 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 1: number one wide receiver's throats over and over again. Just 418 00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 1: look back at last year, you know, for your for 419 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,560 Speaker 1: your numbers test, and that would be what he did 420 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 1: with DeAndre Hopkins undered a ninety two targets to Hopkins 421 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 1: last year. Hoyer was around for the majority of that, 422 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 1: and yeah, I mean that that's the way Horrier plays ball. 423 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 1: He was also with Josh Gordon. That's not the entire time. 424 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 1: There was also the Jason Campbell Brandon Weedon experience in 425 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:52,040 Speaker 1: we just ate lunch and now I think but yeah, no, 426 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,119 Speaker 1: so I think I think Ashaun's gonna be fine. All right, 427 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:57,399 Speaker 1: there you go, Uh date line, Culver City. What is 428 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 1: this breaking news that you guys have been t sing? 429 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,400 Speaker 1: Big announcement? Harmon? How do we how do we want 430 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,919 Speaker 1: to handle this? You want to take the leader? Well, okay, 431 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:06,439 Speaker 1: I was I was the one to throw it. I 432 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,719 Speaker 1: was gonna I was gonna say. So. We were on 433 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 1: our way to um a Galaxy game where we're going 434 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 1: to drink a lot of beer. I only go for 435 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 1: the beer. I don't I don't give a damn about 436 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:17,400 Speaker 1: the soccer. But I'm just there to drink and tail. Again, 437 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 1: at least you're honest. Listen, I'm always honest. But we're 438 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:22,960 Speaker 1: and we're on away and Geller looks over me in 439 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:24,239 Speaker 1: the car. He goes, you know what we should do 440 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:26,360 Speaker 1: for one month. We should just give up beer. And 441 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 1: I'm like, what, well, because you talked about it before 442 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:33,120 Speaker 1: to like lost things, you stopped a beer for a while, 443 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 1: you drank wine and we were both bemoaning, like instead, yeah, 444 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:39,719 Speaker 1: oh yeah. Just just to be clear, So we are 445 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 1: going to do this for the month of October, and 446 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 1: I are going to be in octobert Here's here's here's 447 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 1: the problem. We thought this, three thought this, We thought 448 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 1: this through one. We didn't do anything for october Fest 449 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 1: last year, so really not missing out too. There's no 450 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 1: we want to do this during the season because the 451 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:58,160 Speaker 1: season is hard on us. All we get a little fat, 452 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 1: you know, because you're your desk grinding. Look at look 453 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 1: at numbers, look at the numbers and all that. Is 454 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 1: that what you're saying, what's sort of like the freshman fifteen. 455 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:09,639 Speaker 1: I'm just I'm just I'm just trying to kind of 456 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:13,000 Speaker 1: like warn everybody about this. I I went from to 457 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:15,960 Speaker 1: thirty last year to forty. Now I'm down to two. 458 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 1: But anyway back to the back to the point. But 459 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,159 Speaker 1: but the point is, yeah, it happened. So we figured 460 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:23,960 Speaker 1: we need to do it during the season. November not 461 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,440 Speaker 1: a good month because of Thanksgiving. His birthday is also 462 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 1: in November. Christmas no good time in Member Year's Eve, 463 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 1: so New Year's Eve all that. So so there was 464 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:37,440 Speaker 1: really no and repealed Marcus the most American, the best 465 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 1: holiday ever. So we're gonna go ahead and go through 466 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 1: with this. Um, we should probably come up with like 467 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:45,160 Speaker 1: a hashtag so that the listeners can keep up with 468 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 1: our beer because Alex and I drink of beer. That's 469 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 1: kind of anybody. This is my cheat with wine. Oh no, no, 470 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:55,880 Speaker 1: like yeah again, So we're not giving up alcohol because 471 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,920 Speaker 1: we're not crazy. It is the season we still need. 472 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:01,960 Speaker 1: So we need to do something to try to tempt 473 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,240 Speaker 1: because this doesn't even very hard yet. First of all, 474 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: no, no no, no, see I if this is really like 475 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 1: a weight lot, I don't understand if this is for 476 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,200 Speaker 1: a weight lost thing, Like how is it that if 477 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,199 Speaker 1: you don't have beer but still have like a gallon 478 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 1: of wine that's gonna go to drink? Now? The thing 479 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 1: is too if when souch easier, like we're not gonna 480 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:20,160 Speaker 1: drink a gallon of wine, Jane, right, do you drink 481 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 1: like the a few glasses of wine? That's that's that's 482 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:27,640 Speaker 1: not how wine works. That's how wine works. We slow 483 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: down a lot one. I've been around me drinking wine. 484 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 1: I know how it goes. I feel like unless we 485 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:35,840 Speaker 1: have how much you drank before, we don't really know 486 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:39,919 Speaker 1: how much. This is really giving up Marcus giving up 487 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 1: a lot. Yeah, that's a lot. It's coming up a lot. 488 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: I'm just saying it's funny. It's not purely for weight loss. 489 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,240 Speaker 1: We wanted to do something fun. See it helps in 490 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 1: the In the words of my favorite twentieth century philosopher Cramer, 491 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,680 Speaker 1: I like depriving myself of things makes no sense. I'm 492 00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 1: just gonna come by your house and drink all the 493 00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:00,040 Speaker 1: beer you guys have. You will not be welcome. I 494 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,120 Speaker 1: will not be beer in the house. We're talking about 495 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:04,719 Speaker 1: you have. How do you guys have a case there? No, Well, 496 00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 1: we've got a few days. There's it's September. I guarantee 497 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,120 Speaker 1: we bibe more beer and finish it before September is over. 498 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 1: I mean, there was beer bought on Saturday and it 499 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 1: was gone by like three days ago. This is a 500 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 1: tremendous I wanted to I wanted to talk about Thursday 501 00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:27,399 Speaker 1: night football. I'm thinking about passing it up. It's it 502 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 1: was so bad. Oh, by the way, got gorged the 503 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 1: blunt force trauma all over the place. By the way, 504 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 1: Jacoby Brissette conflicting reports right now. But we saw a 505 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,560 Speaker 1: report from w e I saying that he tore a 506 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,000 Speaker 1: thumb ligament in his throwing hand. He needs surgery, could 507 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:49,160 Speaker 1: be gone. Um it's like designated survivor out there for 508 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,200 Speaker 1: New England. But uh, but then but then Ian rapp 509 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 1: report says, well, surgery may not be required. Uh, and 510 00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 1: they're just gonna keep an eye on it. So I 511 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 1: don't know. Whatever it's Jacoby percent no one cares about him. 512 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,880 Speaker 1: But I would say this, even if he's in any way, 513 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:09,360 Speaker 1: shape or form hurt, Julian Edelman, to me, becomes almost unplayable. 514 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 1: I mean, as we saw um on Thursday, he's not 515 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,360 Speaker 1: a great option in non PPR leaks. He's just not 516 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 1: I know. Gronk was out there for a little bit too. 517 00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,280 Speaker 1: Did he get anything? He had one target? He had 518 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:24,359 Speaker 1: one target. It was well, it was well over his 519 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 1: head in the corner of the endzone. So target, yeah, 520 00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,200 Speaker 1: I mean I think there was one ball that went 521 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:35,879 Speaker 1: close enough for him for the target. It wasn't him 522 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,160 Speaker 1: it's not great. I like La Garret Blunt going into 523 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,120 Speaker 1: week four, but who's gonna say. Can we talk about 524 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:43,240 Speaker 1: the La Garrett Blunt experience. Dude, he has been legit. 525 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 1: I tweeted last night, I said, La Garret Blunt RB 526 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:48,320 Speaker 1: one in fantasy. Do not at me. If you don't 527 00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 1: like it. There you go, though. I mean, I don't 528 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: think he the rest of the the season. You're saying what 529 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:55,199 Speaker 1: week four? I mean because once Tom Brady, I mean, 530 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 1: somebody hit me up with this. Once Tom Brady comes back, 531 00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,360 Speaker 1: he's going to go back to his normal, to the 532 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 1: to the you want to play him in blowout, like 533 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 1: we talked about the last couple of podcasts. He'll he'll 534 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 1: go back to because it's a past happy offense when 535 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 1: Tom Brady comes back. So I don't see that changing. 536 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:11,680 Speaker 1: So it's it's a past happy offense. I mean it's 537 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 1: it's actually like this year they've been more balanced with 538 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo, but even last year they weren't like the 539 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,119 Speaker 1: most past happy. They do have shorter passes, but you know, 540 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 1: it's still like I think the league average is somewhere 541 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:24,919 Speaker 1: around plays are runs and six passes. I think they 542 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,520 Speaker 1: were like right, they're actually pretty close to that. Yeah, 543 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 1: like just a little bit more on the passing, but 544 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:32,359 Speaker 1: not it wasn't like Cincinnati so far with like you know, 545 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 1: seventies something percent of their plays passing right, well either way, yeah, 546 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 1: I mean unless all the other running backs continue to die, 547 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 1: which is a thing that they do. Possible Right now, 548 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 1: we should actually put out the opposite of the injury report, 549 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:47,240 Speaker 1: like these are the people who actually that health is 550 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 1: the health report you can actually play with this week 551 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: because everyone else is out questionable or very true. Alright, 552 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 1: let's talk hot topics here. Lions at Packers a good 553 00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:00,640 Speaker 1: matchup at least on paper for the path, but will 554 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 1: it translate we go Sam Shield's concussion, Sam Shields, he's 555 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 1: been ruled out. It's been ruled out, and will think 556 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 1: to take into consideration. Will the Packer offense get back 557 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 1: on track? Wisconsin Native if they dug us the home. 558 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 1: If they don't at home against the Lions defense missing 559 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: several key starters, then it's officially time to panic in 560 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 1: with your Green Bay scale position players. So we could 561 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,520 Speaker 1: be so so does that mean you know Aaron Rodgers 562 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 1: is gonna go on a radio next? We can say, 563 00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:33,720 Speaker 1: p a in I see any of you guys actually 564 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 1: see the vine that was going around on Twitter of 565 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:39,000 Speaker 1: him like getting interviewed at his locker room like you 566 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 1: guys don't really know the play call. And then he 567 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 1: took a shot at Pro Football Focus and just doing 568 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 1: a lot of this like head jerking thing, and I 569 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 1: was like, whoa, Aaron looks shook. Uh that actually had 570 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 1: funny enough because I'm writing a long form and uh, 571 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 1: it's on the Saints. I am, it's happening. It will 572 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: come out later this year. But it reminded me because 573 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 1: I did see that, and it reminded me of when 574 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:58,440 Speaker 1: there was a time when Mora as the Saints were 575 00:28:58,520 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 1: like falling apart at the end of it where he's like, 576 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 1: you don't know what our executions are, what's right or 577 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:03,840 Speaker 1: what's wrong? And one of the reporters like, well, then 578 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 1: could you tell us? But when when Roger said that, 579 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 1: I was like, I was like, oh God, that's not 580 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 1: a good sign. But but hopefully they turn around. I know, James, 581 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 1: you chimed in on this. I was was tweeting about 582 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 1: it that this could be a good spot. I know 583 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 1: Eddie Lacey's burned people twice already this year. But there's 584 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:20,760 Speaker 1: been a drum beat building all week with what they 585 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 1: said after the game, what Mike McCarthy said in press 586 00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:25,520 Speaker 1: conference throughout the week about recommitting to the ground game, 587 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 1: that our backs haven't got enough opportunities. Lacey's only average 588 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 1: thirteen carries a game so far and still over four 589 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 1: yards carry. Look pretty good when he gets he's had 590 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 1: over four years to carry. I mean he's not He's 591 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 1: not Eddie Lacy know he's saying that, but he's looked 592 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 1: good so and against the Detroit front seven it's missing 593 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 1: Ezekielanza Dendre Levy as we said, but possibly other players 594 00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 1: as well, and even when they were in there, they're 595 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 1: still giving up over five yards of care exactly. This 596 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 1: could be this is a great spot to start Eddie 597 00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 1: Lacey again if you've got them, and that's why it's 598 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 1: gonna be a James Stars game. How dare you? I 599 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 1: actually think Aaron Rodgers does has have my number one 600 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 1: projection this week for the week, okay, And part of 601 00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 1: that is because of the potential missing pieces on the 602 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 1: b on Detroit side of the bottle, and the other 603 00:30:05,040 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 1: part of the reason is Detroit's actually playing in a 604 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 1: faster pace than we than they had in years past, 605 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:12,959 Speaker 1: and that pace just means more opportunities, more plays. And 606 00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 1: for me that I think, you know, I wrote about 607 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 1: it this week. I think you know about all the 608 00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,480 Speaker 1: things that kind of show that Aaron Rodgers is having 609 00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 1: kind of a bad start to the season. But we 610 00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:24,920 Speaker 1: have to take out in the same way that someone 611 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 1: looks really really great, you have to take out when 612 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:28,800 Speaker 1: they look really really bad too from the sample. And 613 00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 1: to me, you're in this valley with him right now, 614 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 1: and I think in a week we'd be like, well, 615 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 1: that was a nice game. I mean, and it's really painful. 616 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 1: I'm hoping I'm actually on the other side of this 617 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:42,120 Speaker 1: matchup being oh, that's right, you're the Lions. Yes, so 618 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 1: that's right. I forgot about that. I mean, it's a 619 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 1: painful existence. You're not really a fan, you're just more like, 620 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 1: at least it's a good color, Honolulu blue. It's a 621 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:53,160 Speaker 1: good color. It's a great and everyone speaking of a 622 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:56,720 Speaker 1: merab Doulah shocking only put on I R it was 623 00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 1: kind of out of nowhere, considering, you know, people were 624 00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 1: saying that he had a mild footsprain, might have been 625 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 1: gone a couple of games and then all of a sudden, 626 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 1: it's like, boom, got that second opinion. It's like, oh yeah, 627 00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 1: I'm going on I R now see you guys. That 628 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 1: made me so sad. Where did that come from? I 629 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 1: went back and watched a little bit of that game 630 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 1: last we actually watched the whole game last week, and 631 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 1: he looked so he looked like the mirror. Remember last 632 00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 1: year in the preseason he made that one sick move 633 00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 1: and the whole internet just exploding, right, and that that 634 00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 1: took a mirror Doula from being a maybe a seventh 635 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,920 Speaker 1: round fantasy pick to like a fourth or third round 636 00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 1: on that was not somebody on the Chargers. The week 637 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 1: one was that when he did in real life to 638 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:37,719 Speaker 1: Eric Weddle was like, this is gonna work out. Everyone 639 00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 1: was Everyone was like, oh my gosh, she's better Nebraska 640 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:41,880 Speaker 1: person than Sue. Good thing we have him now, you know. 641 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 1: But but that was there a mirror Doula that I 642 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:49,920 Speaker 1: saw on Sunday against Tennessee and then now he's gone. 643 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,800 Speaker 1: I just I like theoretic he's a good player and 644 00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 1: he has a lot of the same skills, but just 645 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 1: not it's like getting the CVS knockoff of you know, 646 00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:02,600 Speaker 1: the your normal shampoo. Like it's fine, it works well, 647 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 1: but like's not. That's why it's Dwayne Washington time in 648 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 1: the backfield. Yes, all right, so let me ask you this, 649 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:13,000 Speaker 1: what are the expectations for theoretick and Dwayne Washington. We 650 00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:16,200 Speaker 1: know Washington is a fabulous athlete, a huge, big guy. 651 00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 1: What is he like? Two is an unbelievable Uh love 652 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 1: his athletic traits. But here's the thing. Green Bay has 653 00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:31,360 Speaker 1: only given up seventy eight rush yards total through to 654 00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 1: This is not a great spot to start Dwayne Washington, 655 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:36,480 Speaker 1: I don't think. But starting like next week, maybe this 656 00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 1: should be a good one for theoretic. He's going to 657 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,000 Speaker 1: see a few more carries, he's gonna get his passing 658 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,600 Speaker 1: down work. And I think if they're chasing the Packers, 659 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,400 Speaker 1: who are favorites at home, that turns into a theoretic game. 660 00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 1: Script all right, so the Rams of the Bucks? Is 661 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,960 Speaker 1: this a make or break game for Todd Gurley? Oh? 662 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 1: This is this is going to be a disaster though 663 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 1: I think the disaster. I think the Bucks are gonna 664 00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 1: slaughter the Rams. I was talking about this with with 665 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 1: everybody in the news room today, A uh, like I 666 00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 1: I picked them as my survivor pick for or whatever. 667 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:10,120 Speaker 1: I Well, see everybody's picking the Dolphins. I just like them. 668 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:11,640 Speaker 1: And that's the only week I think I can actually 669 00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 1: pick right that. See, that's a good point, Like, and 670 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:15,840 Speaker 1: I just don't want to I was personally off topic, 671 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:17,600 Speaker 1: but like I was personally scared to pick Ryan Tanniel 672 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 1: I was looking like the last time he was like 673 00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 1: a chalk pick. And it was when he went like 674 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:24,240 Speaker 1: nine for nineteen for eight six yards against the Yea 675 00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 1: that brought back bad memories. But anyways, my point is 676 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 1: I picked the Bucks because there's such a horrible matchup 677 00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 1: for the Rams, because the Bucks are kind of a 678 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 1: funnel defense, where like you don't want to run on them. 679 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 1: They give up two point nine two point nine eight 680 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 1: yards per carry this year. That's another thing that's rolling 681 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:42,720 Speaker 1: over from last year where they had a really strong 682 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 1: top ten run defense on Football Outsiders d v O A. 683 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:48,920 Speaker 1: And but their secondary is bad. We know they're underman 684 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 1: back there and they want to force you to well 685 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 1: they don't want to force you, but they kind of 686 00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 1: force you to pass the ball because they can't run. 687 00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:56,720 Speaker 1: That's not what the Rams do well. I expect this 688 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:59,400 Speaker 1: to be another slow game for Todd Gurley and the 689 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 1: Rams off fence, and I just I can't I can't 690 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 1: really tell myself the story of how the Rams are 691 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:08,400 Speaker 1: going to be effective against defense, and not to mention 692 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:11,879 Speaker 1: their defense first, this offense. While I think that this 693 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:14,760 Speaker 1: is not the greatest matchup for Charles Sims on the ground, 694 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 1: I don't really care because he's gonna see twenty plus 695 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,320 Speaker 1: touches in a game that I expect the Bucks to control. 696 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:23,400 Speaker 1: And oh, by the way, Mike Evans is gonna destroy 697 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 1: all those cornerbacks And it's not gonna be a picture 698 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 1: of efficiency for Sims. But it's a volume play exactly see. 699 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:30,880 Speaker 1: And but that's that's sort of how I feel about Girley, 700 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:33,279 Speaker 1: that it won't be efficient. But I just think the 701 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 1: Rams are going to want to do everything in their 702 00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 1: power to get him going. So I think they're gonna 703 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 1: force feed him the balld I don't. I think it's 704 00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 1: gonna be one of those things. You look at his 705 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:43,920 Speaker 1: stats and they won't be great. It will be you know, 706 00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:46,880 Speaker 1: like five carries for like, you know, eighty yards and 707 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 1: a touchdown because they just want to force feed him 708 00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:52,080 Speaker 1: to make sure everything's gonna be okay. And so I 709 00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 1: think people will look at it and look at the 710 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:57,640 Speaker 1: fantasy totals being decent, and everybody will say, oh, everything's fine, 711 00:34:57,719 --> 00:35:00,399 Speaker 1: But it's not fine. It's not that's not close to fine. 712 00:35:00,640 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 1: Don't be getting start getting crashed. We see, we see him, 713 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:06,799 Speaker 1: we see the number one pickf not this week. I 714 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:08,520 Speaker 1: feel like they're going to have to do like a 715 00:35:08,560 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 1: whole week of preparation for that. But I mean, they 716 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:15,200 Speaker 1: had a week. It's not like they've been I mean, 717 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:18,080 Speaker 1: I have no idea. The anti has been up by 718 00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 1: the fact that we've seen, Okay, Jacoby Brissette has come 719 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 1: in and won a game that Prescott has won. Tody 720 00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:27,440 Speaker 1: Kesler is now starting this week like the Rocky quarterbacks 721 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:29,879 Speaker 1: are getting Somerson Wentz. Carson Wentz has looked good through 722 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:34,759 Speaker 1: everybody but Paxton. But but basically I think that's that's 723 00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:36,919 Speaker 1: going to ratch it up. The pressure on on Jeff 724 00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:39,000 Speaker 1: Fisher to make a decision. You know, I heard it 725 00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:40,960 Speaker 1: the a t N guys talking about, you know how 726 00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:44,200 Speaker 1: good Carson Wentz looked, and they made the right decision 727 00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:48,080 Speaker 1: by going wentz over or over golf because golf looks overwhelmed. 728 00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:50,480 Speaker 1: The only point that I would make is, and I 729 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:52,560 Speaker 1: don't know if I could. You know, it's hard to 730 00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:55,600 Speaker 1: fully disagree with that, but you gotta think about coaching. 731 00:35:55,960 --> 00:36:00,160 Speaker 1: I mean, Doug Peterson versus what they got there in 732 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:03,920 Speaker 1: l A. I mean, it doesn't even compare when you 733 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:06,960 Speaker 1: start talking about quarterbacks. I mean, Wesling tweeted that out 734 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:12,839 Speaker 1: with like the long list of quarterback Philadelphia right now 735 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:17,240 Speaker 1: coaching up winds. And also that defense is significantly impressed 736 00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:21,160 Speaker 1: at Schwartz and I aren't best friends or anything, because 737 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:26,680 Speaker 1: al right, he isn't incredible, he is a great defensive mind, 738 00:36:26,680 --> 00:36:29,080 Speaker 1: which very much helps a quarterback when you don't have 739 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:33,320 Speaker 1: that kind of super from behind pressure, throw, throwrowth, throw alright, alright, 740 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,040 Speaker 1: So Broncos at Bengals. This is another one that's going 741 00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 1: to be very very interesting because there's a lot of 742 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:41,319 Speaker 1: high profile fantasy names here. The Bengals shut down uh 743 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:45,200 Speaker 1: Antonio Brown last week. It's making a lot of folks 744 00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:48,360 Speaker 1: think that DT Tomarius Thomas might be a bus this week. 745 00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:50,440 Speaker 1: And I don't necessarily know if I disagree with that. 746 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:52,919 Speaker 1: He's already dealing with the hip injury. The Bengals shut 747 00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:55,880 Speaker 1: down a b last week. Uh, they've got Trevor Simmons 748 00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 1: on the road. I don't know. My trust level in 749 00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:02,200 Speaker 1: DT right now is not very hot. Mine isn't either. 750 00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:04,239 Speaker 1: I don't think it has anything to do with the 751 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:07,120 Speaker 1: Bengals defense specifically. I mean, that's that's not helping the 752 00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:11,840 Speaker 1: situation is not they don't. I think it's mostly about 753 00:37:12,040 --> 00:37:14,440 Speaker 1: just the way the Broncos offense runs. And this is 754 00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:17,160 Speaker 1: what I anticipated at the start of the year. Played defense, 755 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:19,880 Speaker 1: run on the football and try to get out like that. 756 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:22,200 Speaker 1: I mean, you look at the Marrious Thomas and you 757 00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:25,560 Speaker 1: know Week one he had with forty eight yards receiving total. Uh, 758 00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:29,200 Speaker 1: last last week he had he had ninety yards receiving. 759 00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 1: Forty four of them came on one play. It was 760 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:34,120 Speaker 1: a little slip screen and he took it long down 761 00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:36,960 Speaker 1: the field for a big play. Other than that, there's 762 00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:40,319 Speaker 1: just isn't much there to be excited about there, you know, 763 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:43,480 Speaker 1: certainly cheating Trevor Simeon kind of with kid gloves. They're 764 00:37:43,520 --> 00:37:48,000 Speaker 1: you know, making him, putting him in a situation to succeed. Well, 765 00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:50,960 Speaker 1: I mean, and the Bengals gives up yards a game 766 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:53,040 Speaker 1: on the ground that's number one in the NFL's right, 767 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:55,200 Speaker 1: So you and you have C. J. Anderson who's running 768 00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:57,839 Speaker 1: well five points seven yards per Carreys in the Week 769 00:37:57,880 --> 00:37:59,879 Speaker 1: eight last year. I don't think you have to make 770 00:37:59,880 --> 00:38:02,080 Speaker 1: it super complicated. I think you can run the ball. 771 00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 1: You keep it simple. You run the ball, and you know, 772 00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:07,719 Speaker 1: get yourself and it put yourself in a situation where 773 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:10,880 Speaker 1: you don't need to start making these higher risk passes 774 00:38:11,120 --> 00:38:13,640 Speaker 1: to d t or even Tommanuel Sanders. Can we talk? 775 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 1: Is this game a race to ten points? I was 776 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:16,760 Speaker 1: gonna say, I think this will probably be a pretty 777 00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:19,680 Speaker 1: low scoring game. Which game is more low scoring? This 778 00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 1: game or Buffalo Arizona? This game only because, if only, 779 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:26,359 Speaker 1: because Cardinals are going to score, right, exactly. I think 780 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:29,120 Speaker 1: the areas would be like I want to put up well. 781 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:32,719 Speaker 1: I mean, he came out last week when they who 782 00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:35,440 Speaker 1: they who they beat last week? The Bucks? The Bucks, right, 783 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:38,880 Speaker 1: and he was like still complaining about David Johnson's Biggs 784 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:42,799 Speaker 1: or whatever. I'm like, bro, dude, you want like, as 785 00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:45,560 Speaker 1: you win, you blew them out. So I feel like 786 00:38:45,600 --> 00:38:48,400 Speaker 1: every week he wants to, like unless it's a perfect performance. 787 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:50,880 Speaker 1: He's not. He's not. What do we do with Emmanuel Sanders? 788 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:54,439 Speaker 1: By the way, eighty eight yards total through two games? 789 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:57,080 Speaker 1: Pick up Quincy and he still leads the team and 790 00:38:57,120 --> 00:39:00,799 Speaker 1: targets does Emmanuel Sanders? But he got to be Look, 791 00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:03,239 Speaker 1: we're still early enough in the season where he's got 792 00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:07,800 Speaker 1: enough name value. I think you gotta trade him who 793 00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:11,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. I feel like everybody value, but I 794 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:14,120 Speaker 1: feel like because the quarterback situation like already depressed his 795 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:16,960 Speaker 1: draft value anyways, like coming into the year, and I 796 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:20,160 Speaker 1: think everybody knows about the quarterback situation, nobody's really how 797 00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:22,280 Speaker 1: about it? How about if you could move Emmanuel Sanders 798 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:26,160 Speaker 1: for Carlos Hide? Would you do it? No? I don't want. 799 00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:28,239 Speaker 1: You're getting high. Oh you're getting hide and you give 800 00:39:28,320 --> 00:39:30,480 Speaker 1: up standards. I don't really I don't really want either. 801 00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:34,799 Speaker 1: I see you am I playing PPR because the answers 802 00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:37,720 Speaker 1: hold onto Sanders until Paxton Lynch gets named the starter 803 00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:39,400 Speaker 1: in like three weeks and then I don't even know 804 00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:42,480 Speaker 1: if no, but we won't you flip him before we 805 00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:44,760 Speaker 1: see Lynch on the field because somebody might be like, oh, alright, 806 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:48,200 Speaker 1: big arm quarterback like coming in then flip him in. Wait, 807 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:52,000 Speaker 1: wait for the narrative, because it's like, how do you 808 00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:53,719 Speaker 1: tell when everybody's like, should I trade this guy for 809 00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:56,000 Speaker 1: this guy? Like, I don't know anything about what you're 810 00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:57,640 Speaker 1: I don't know anything about your team on any about 811 00:39:57,640 --> 00:39:58,880 Speaker 1: your league? Who are you trying to trade him to? 812 00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:03,720 Speaker 1: How stupid ross? Kiss that person? Roster's composition? Anybody benching 813 00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:10,399 Speaker 1: A J. Green? Yeah? Good? Good? No? So last year 814 00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:12,800 Speaker 1: when they faced off, You guys are so hyper about A. J. G. 815 00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:15,600 Speaker 1: I mean, can we at least say we're tempering expectation? Well, 816 00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 1: I mean yeah, ok, like he's you know, James, you 817 00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:25,640 Speaker 1: know James body, you should really temporary expectations start A J. Green? 818 00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:29,000 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know, you know, because we're so 819 00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:32,799 Speaker 1: excited about I'm not excited about. It's not about It's 820 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:35,319 Speaker 1: not about being excited because there's certainly the possibility that 821 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:37,319 Speaker 1: he doesn't have a huge game because of who the 822 00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:40,160 Speaker 1: opponent is. But but who, I mean, look, who else 823 00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 1: did you really trust to make plays in the passing 824 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:45,319 Speaker 1: game in that office? I mean Brandon felt no yet 825 00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:47,520 Speaker 1: five for fifty seven in a touch with McCarron as 826 00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:50,000 Speaker 1: his quarterback. I was gonna say, so last year he 827 00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:52,360 Speaker 1: had he faced against Chris Harris on seven plays, was 828 00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:55,560 Speaker 1: targeted twice, one reception for fourteen yards. Faced off against 829 00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 1: the Keeps leave twenty plays, was targeted four times, three receptions, 830 00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:01,520 Speaker 1: thirty four yards and it's touchdown. So and again that 831 00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:03,520 Speaker 1: was with mccaren. That was also last year. This is 832 00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:05,400 Speaker 1: what we talked about all draft seas with with the A. J. 833 00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 1: Green was that they had all those other options. Last 834 00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:09,719 Speaker 1: year he saw the lowest share of targets he's ever 835 00:41:09,719 --> 00:41:12,920 Speaker 1: seen in that offense outside of his rookie year. So 836 00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:15,440 Speaker 1: it's so fact though, I think he's still gonna get 837 00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:18,399 Speaker 1: a ton of targets. And this Bengals offense, like Cynthia said, 838 00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:20,520 Speaker 1: has been passing so much, so I expect him to 839 00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:23,240 Speaker 1: still be a very viable wide receiver two at worst. 840 00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:24,640 Speaker 1: I mean, I get it, but there's a lot of 841 00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:27,719 Speaker 1: concern right now, especially considering that he came off of 842 00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:30,839 Speaker 1: a thirty eight yard game in Week two. I just 843 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:33,680 Speaker 1: think you you look at the matchup against its gonna 844 00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:35,560 Speaker 1: be a lot of points score against the team that 845 00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 1: knows that offense very well. Yeah, they always kind of 846 00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:41,080 Speaker 1: have a low score. The other point here is DeMarcus 847 00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:43,600 Speaker 1: Ware is out and I'm not saying to downgrade that 848 00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:46,480 Speaker 1: defense in any way, shape or form, but does provide 849 00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:48,800 Speaker 1: a little bit of leaf is a relief not leaf 850 00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:54,000 Speaker 1: relief involved. Um, so a little bit of relief, you know, 851 00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:57,320 Speaker 1: especially on passing plays. All right, those were your hot 852 00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:00,399 Speaker 1: topics for today, and it leads us directly from hot 853 00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:06,480 Speaker 1: topics too. Franchises Fiery Phoner. Alright, so we just you 854 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:08,800 Speaker 1: as we prerecorded this. Nobody interrupted him. This isn't a 855 00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:12,319 Speaker 1: live conversation. We'll we'll recap after Franchises Phoner. But let's 856 00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:20,040 Speaker 1: get to it. Prepare yourselves for it's franchise my fire 857 00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:22,839 Speaker 1: day because that Alfred Moore gets revenge on the red 858 00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:31,120 Speaker 1: thing reveng Hey, guys, franchise here with my fiery phone in. 859 00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 1: All right, my lock of the week RB one for 860 00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:37,360 Speaker 1: Week three. It's almost too easy, even a pick of 861 00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 1: a pick. It is Melvin Gordon of the San Diego Chargers. 862 00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:43,840 Speaker 1: Uh he This guy went from basically a matchup based 863 00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:46,960 Speaker 1: flex play to a potential RB one in a matter 864 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:50,040 Speaker 1: of days. With Danny woodheads injury. Um, he's out for 865 00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 1: the season now, so Gordon will slide right in there 866 00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:56,240 Speaker 1: in a high volume workload. He logged twenty seven touches 867 00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:58,640 Speaker 1: last week, one of only four running backs to do 868 00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:02,520 Speaker 1: so in Week two. Um Gordon also has received seventy 869 00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:05,799 Speaker 1: three percent of the Chargers red zone rush attempts, with 870 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,640 Speaker 1: eleven total in two games, scoring all three of his 871 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:12,920 Speaker 1: touchdowns from the red area. Going up against a patchwork 872 00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 1: Colts defense this week that allowed one hundred sixty two 873 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:19,600 Speaker 1: yards to Denver running backs in Week two and two 874 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:23,799 Speaker 1: hundred twenty nine yards to Lions running backs in Week one. 875 00:43:24,520 --> 00:43:27,480 Speaker 1: Uh they also allowed five total touchdowns to the position 876 00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:30,160 Speaker 1: this season. So lock Melvin Gordon into your lineups as 877 00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 1: an RB one. Alright, My sleeper running back of the 878 00:43:33,160 --> 00:43:36,560 Speaker 1: week is Derrick Henry Um. He impressed in the preseason, 879 00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:38,799 Speaker 1: but now that regular games have started, it's clear the 880 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:41,279 Speaker 1: Titans like de Marco Murray. But I think that's gonna 881 00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:45,919 Speaker 1: change this week when the Titans welcomed the Raiders into Tennessee. 882 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:49,719 Speaker 1: The Raiders defense ranks dead last in the NFL and 883 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:53,280 Speaker 1: points per game allowed, total yards per game allowed, passing 884 00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 1: yards per game allowed, and yards per play allowed, which 885 00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:59,240 Speaker 1: is nothing but good news for the Titans. Key offensive players, 886 00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 1: including Henry, who had his play percentage increase from week 887 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:05,000 Speaker 1: one to week two. He was on the field for 888 00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:08,040 Speaker 1: of the Titans snaps in week one, and then in 889 00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:09,920 Speaker 1: a closer game in Week two, he was on the 890 00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:14,080 Speaker 1: field of the snaps, So that's good sign for Henry. 891 00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:16,560 Speaker 1: He's used to used to just going up Murray, say 892 00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:19,000 Speaker 1: for a sixty seven yard run last week. Has not 893 00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:22,400 Speaker 1: been very effective as a runner, and with the Raiders 894 00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:25,480 Speaker 1: defense reeling, I can see a kind of scenario in 895 00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:28,720 Speaker 1: that game where Henry breaks off a couple of long runs, 896 00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:31,000 Speaker 1: maybe make some kind of crazy play in space on 897 00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:34,520 Speaker 1: a reception, and maybe gets a goal line carry for 898 00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:37,400 Speaker 1: a touchdown. So I would start Henry as a sleeper 899 00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:40,080 Speaker 1: pick this week. My worst play at running back this 900 00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:43,759 Speaker 1: week is Jeremy Jeremy Langford versus the Cowboys. Langford is 901 00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:46,680 Speaker 1: quickly falling out a favor in Chicago three point zero 902 00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 1: yards per carry average on twenty eight rushes in two games. Um. 903 00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:52,839 Speaker 1: He has had a hundred percent of Chicago's red zone 904 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,640 Speaker 1: carries and he scored twice. But other than that, that's 905 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:58,839 Speaker 1: really all he's done. Uh. Jordan Howard is creeping up 906 00:44:58,840 --> 00:45:02,000 Speaker 1: behind him after finding a spark laid against Philadelphia on 907 00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:05,520 Speaker 1: Monday night and the backup there, coldem Carry, suffered a 908 00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:08,840 Speaker 1: hamstring injury. So the door is wide open for Jordan 909 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:12,200 Speaker 1: Howard to start stealing some snaps from Langford since he 910 00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:15,680 Speaker 1: hasn't been performing well. Um, Jordan Howard can catch well 911 00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:18,440 Speaker 1: for a big man out of the backfield, and uh, 912 00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:21,799 Speaker 1: I think that Jeremy Langford, if he keeps disappointing the 913 00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:24,680 Speaker 1: coaches there in Chicago are gonna give rookie Jordan Howard 914 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:29,920 Speaker 1: a shot. My fire take, Get ready put your gas 915 00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:36,759 Speaker 1: masks on. Kristen Michael will finally break out three touchdown 916 00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:41,240 Speaker 1: of his career against the San Francisco forty Niners. Through 917 00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:44,440 Speaker 1: two games, Christen Michael Seattle's leading rusher with a hundred 918 00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:48,200 Speaker 1: and twenty five yards, averaging five yards per carry. Thomas 919 00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:52,600 Speaker 1: Rawls is averaging one point three yards per carry. Despite 920 00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:55,120 Speaker 1: Rawles getting dubbed the starter last week, Michael is still 921 00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:58,239 Speaker 1: able to outplay him. Rawles is banged up again with 922 00:45:58,280 --> 00:46:01,920 Speaker 1: a leg injury now, and I believe that Kristen Michael 923 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:04,640 Speaker 1: will lead the Seattle back for backfield for the third 924 00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:08,680 Speaker 1: straight week and score his first career NFL touchdown this week. 925 00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:13,839 Speaker 1: That's franchise fiery phone and thanks guys. Wow. Um, first off, 926 00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:15,480 Speaker 1: we need we need to get him more fired up. 927 00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:21,520 Speaker 1: This was a late Thursday pre record. Alright, he's getting 928 00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:23,400 Speaker 1: ready to go drive up to freds now so we 929 00:46:23,440 --> 00:46:26,680 Speaker 1: can forgive him. It's not exactly full of fire, but 930 00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:30,279 Speaker 1: follow up on his his big fiery hot take of 931 00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:34,880 Speaker 1: the week. Um, Thomas Rawls is doubtful. Yeah, he's been 932 00:46:35,080 --> 00:46:39,080 Speaker 1: dealing with the shin contusion. Contusion, so he's downfull. Um 933 00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:42,319 Speaker 1: what was the phrase? Doesn't look good? Probably not looking good. 934 00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:47,600 Speaker 1: Probably not looking good, So that that helps the awakening. 935 00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:51,680 Speaker 1: I think Matt Jones is the worst picked than Jeremy Langford, 936 00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:54,160 Speaker 1: though Matt Jones that's a good choice too. I can't 937 00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:56,279 Speaker 1: get behind Matt Jones by the way. She woke in 938 00:46:56,320 --> 00:47:00,800 Speaker 1: a great matchup. Yes, uh the home again against the 939 00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:02,959 Speaker 1: forty niners. You know, Chip, we know, we know about 940 00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:06,799 Speaker 1: pace of play Cynthia Freeland's favorite word. They're regarding Chip 941 00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:10,239 Speaker 1: Kelly's offenses and this team just I mean stomped a 942 00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:13,799 Speaker 1: mud hole in this exact same defense last year. I 943 00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:16,239 Speaker 1: know it's a different coaching staff. YadA, YadA, YadA, but 944 00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:19,880 Speaker 1: man Seawolk looks like he is in line for a 945 00:47:20,040 --> 00:47:23,440 Speaker 1: huge game against the San Francisco forty Niners. I really like, 946 00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:26,440 Speaker 1: what do you guys do with Carlos Hide? By the way, 947 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:29,759 Speaker 1: any possible way, any possible way you're playing. I mean, 948 00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:37,080 Speaker 1: here's the if I had Matt Jones, I mean, if 949 00:47:37,080 --> 00:47:39,000 Speaker 1: you're like me and you don't have any running back, 950 00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:43,520 Speaker 1: I mean that's because I was, like, I know that's 951 00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:45,799 Speaker 1: what I'm steel wide receivers from other people. So the 952 00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:49,920 Speaker 1: the the injury bug at this position group. And plus uh, 953 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:52,319 Speaker 1: if if you listen to Matt Harman and you went 954 00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:56,160 Speaker 1: wide receiver early, I mean, there's not a ton of 955 00:47:56,239 --> 00:47:58,880 Speaker 1: running backs out there. I almost think you have to 956 00:47:58,920 --> 00:48:02,200 Speaker 1: play hide in most leagues. I don't know if you do. 957 00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:06,000 Speaker 1: I'm looking at the schedule right now. Speaking of high 958 00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:08,919 Speaker 1: they go to Seattle, alright, they get Dallas at home. 959 00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:11,920 Speaker 1: I feel like you could potentially him that we may 960 00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:14,359 Speaker 1: It just always sucks playing the Cowboys and they suck 961 00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:15,640 Speaker 1: the life out of the other team. How would be 962 00:48:15,680 --> 00:48:18,200 Speaker 1: fun to watch like the slowest paced team in the league, 963 00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:20,560 Speaker 1: it's the fastest paced team in the league, and like 964 00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:23,560 Speaker 1: which wins out there? The Spurs can take a few 965 00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:25,600 Speaker 1: on the Hey, there you go. I don't get I 966 00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:35,239 Speaker 1: don't get any don't you're wasting? Yeah, that's the one 967 00:48:35,239 --> 00:48:38,480 Speaker 1: with the orange thing, right like this space jam movie. 968 00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:40,280 Speaker 1: Got it all right? That is one of your late games. 969 00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:42,320 Speaker 1: Let's get to some of your early game storylines. The 970 00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:45,160 Speaker 1: Viking take on the Panthers and it's an interesting backfield 971 00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:48,760 Speaker 1: mess for for both teams. Really, I know, Jerick McKinnon, Uh, 972 00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:52,680 Speaker 1: Fozzy Whittaker and Cappy were popular editions off the waiver 973 00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:55,000 Speaker 1: wire in terms of the running back position. Oh, by 974 00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:57,719 Speaker 1: the way, Adrian Peterson officially placed on I R. I 975 00:48:57,719 --> 00:49:01,319 Speaker 1: think he's eligible to return using air quotes here in 976 00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:03,560 Speaker 1: week eleven. Probably not gonna happen. He's probably done for 977 00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:06,799 Speaker 1: the season. He could poss probably be done in terms 978 00:49:06,840 --> 00:49:09,319 Speaker 1: of his Viking career in general because of his cap 979 00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:11,799 Speaker 1: figures is so huge. Going to next year, they'll probably 980 00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:15,600 Speaker 1: cut him. But that's for a different podcast. Vikings at Panthers. 981 00:49:16,360 --> 00:49:18,440 Speaker 1: You talk about low scoring affairs, This one kind of 982 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:21,200 Speaker 1: has the makings of a of a low scoring game. Here. 983 00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:24,760 Speaker 1: Can you start Jerick McKinnon against a very good Carolina 984 00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:29,399 Speaker 1: Panthers defense? You can do anything you want, you can. 985 00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:34,799 Speaker 1: Can you start him with high expectations? Okay, Yeah, I 986 00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:36,759 Speaker 1: feel like if you're starting him, you definitely have to 987 00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:40,080 Speaker 1: temporary expectations. The Panthers are just so good at home. 988 00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:41,799 Speaker 1: I mean, I know that they are going to go 989 00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:44,239 Speaker 1: one in fifteen this year, so they will lose this game. 990 00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:49,320 Speaker 1: So now it's I heard on Evan Silverlson in the 991 00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:51,160 Speaker 1: Fantasy Feast this morning. I'm my way into work and 992 00:49:51,160 --> 00:49:53,359 Speaker 1: he's talking about how cam Is has been a wide 993 00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:56,919 Speaker 1: received our top wide receiver, a QB five, a top 994 00:49:56,960 --> 00:49:58,919 Speaker 1: five QB in his last like seven of his last 995 00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:01,279 Speaker 1: nine home games. So they're going to score points, and 996 00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:03,080 Speaker 1: you know that could set up all right with McKinnon 997 00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:05,400 Speaker 1: catching passes. But Asia is there. I think it's just 998 00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:07,239 Speaker 1: a wait and see approach of this backfield right now. 999 00:50:07,320 --> 00:50:09,319 Speaker 1: Both are good ads, like if you got him, don't 1000 00:50:09,400 --> 00:50:11,160 Speaker 1: drop him or anything, but wait and see how it 1001 00:50:11,160 --> 00:50:14,920 Speaker 1: shakes out. Fucking so good defensively though, I mean, so 1002 00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:17,839 Speaker 1: were the Broncos, and he went in on the road 1003 00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:20,000 Speaker 1: and had a good day. Yeah, And I think that 1004 00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:25,080 Speaker 1: the matchup between the Vikings cornerbacks and Kelvin Benjamin definitely 1005 00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:29,000 Speaker 1: features our favorite Kelvin Benjamin Xavier Road. If he misses 1006 00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:31,239 Speaker 1: this gaming, there's no waste playing. Yeah, he's really their 1007 00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:35,240 Speaker 1: only corner with size, Terence Newman's five ten, Trey Wayne's 1008 00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:41,520 Speaker 1: is bad and six foot Captain Monrolin former Panther, he was. 1009 00:50:41,280 --> 00:50:43,919 Speaker 1: He actually looked really good last week. He's a good 1010 00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:49,680 Speaker 1: He's a really good slot corner. It's always captain, Captain, captain. Yeah, 1011 00:50:49,760 --> 00:50:51,279 Speaker 1: Trey Wayne is didn't look good to you. I thought 1012 00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:54,200 Speaker 1: he he got he got. I mean, he tackled exceptionally well. 1013 00:50:54,239 --> 00:51:00,279 Speaker 1: Whether not he got he got the last off at 1014 00:51:00,280 --> 00:51:04,000 Speaker 1: the end, he got punked. Most of the alright, Browns 1015 00:51:04,040 --> 00:51:06,880 Speaker 1: taking on the Dolphins, Jarvis Landry in Miami defense. Is 1016 00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:10,560 Speaker 1: there anyone else in that matchup between the Browns and 1017 00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:14,279 Speaker 1: Dolphins that is playable? I feel like I have no 1018 00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:16,799 Speaker 1: idea what to expect from this game. And I know 1019 00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:19,120 Speaker 1: we talked about a little bit earlier. I really have 1020 00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:23,600 Speaker 1: no idea what because I don't look. I expect the 1021 00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:25,240 Speaker 1: Browns to be bad, so I guess I can expect 1022 00:51:25,239 --> 00:51:29,319 Speaker 1: that offensively, I don't expect much from them, but I 1023 00:51:29,360 --> 00:51:32,400 Speaker 1: don't I don't know what to make of this Dolphins offense. 1024 00:51:32,440 --> 00:51:36,400 Speaker 1: I mean last week against the Patriots, they were awful 1025 00:51:36,520 --> 00:51:38,879 Speaker 1: for the first maybe a couple of quarters. The first 1026 00:51:38,880 --> 00:51:41,239 Speaker 1: half they were bad. They got down big, and then 1027 00:51:41,239 --> 00:51:43,160 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you know, Tannehill and those guys 1028 00:51:43,200 --> 00:51:44,520 Speaker 1: come to life, and they put up some points. They 1029 00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:46,280 Speaker 1: made it interesting. I mean, they certainly made it interesting 1030 00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:47,520 Speaker 1: by the time it was all said and done. But 1031 00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:49,680 Speaker 1: you wondered what happened at the start of this, at 1032 00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:53,000 Speaker 1: the start of that game where they just couldn't move 1033 00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:56,600 Speaker 1: the football. So I, I really honestly don't know. I know, 1034 00:51:56,680 --> 00:51:58,840 Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry is the guy you start because he is 1035 00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:02,239 Speaker 1: a target machine. Yep. Beyond that, I don't know I 1036 00:52:02,360 --> 00:52:06,000 Speaker 1: could start. You ready for it? Davante Parker, Jordan Cameron. Oh, 1037 00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:11,759 Speaker 1: it is a revenge game, true narrative. I like it. 1038 00:52:11,880 --> 00:52:14,959 Speaker 1: Look as I wrote in our weekly matchups piece twenty 1039 00:52:15,040 --> 00:52:18,040 Speaker 1: third Teams a long time ago. Dude, Seriously, I was 1040 00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:21,920 Speaker 1: still in college, were you really? I graduate? Such a 1041 00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:29,920 Speaker 1: baby always I always need a drink. But that's unrelated. Um, Okay, 1042 00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:32,640 Speaker 1: So we saw Jordan Cameron actually be a part of 1043 00:52:32,680 --> 00:52:35,640 Speaker 1: the game last week. Also, you know, look at the 1044 00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:37,399 Speaker 1: coach and I hate to go back to this and say, 1045 00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:39,719 Speaker 1: Adam Gaze, you know tight ends, but it is true 1046 00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:43,600 Speaker 1: Zach Miller last year got him going back in Denver 1047 00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:47,279 Speaker 1: Julius Thomas. You know there are examples of using that 1048 00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:51,560 Speaker 1: tight end spot efficiently by Adam Gaze. And you know, 1049 00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:54,920 Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill in this in this contest could be a 1050 00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:58,080 Speaker 1: risky pick for maybe a perfect challenge or something where 1051 00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:00,520 Speaker 1: you don't have to you know, you're you're not He's 1052 00:53:00,520 --> 00:53:02,319 Speaker 1: not gonna be your season long quarterback, but you know 1053 00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:04,200 Speaker 1: it's just something where you have a chance to play 1054 00:53:04,239 --> 00:53:05,799 Speaker 1: with him for one week. It could be. It's so 1055 00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:09,080 Speaker 1: crazy because the range of outcomes for for Ryan Tannehill 1056 00:53:09,160 --> 00:53:12,080 Speaker 1: is is anythink for me like he could have five points, 1057 00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:15,759 Speaker 1: he could have thirty five points. Yeah, I have no 1058 00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:18,560 Speaker 1: idea what I'm gonna get on Sunday with with Ryan 1059 00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:21,080 Speaker 1: Antanna Hill. Uh. I want to talk about DeVante Parker 1060 00:53:21,120 --> 00:53:23,960 Speaker 1: a little bit though he flashed some ability. Uh you 1061 00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:27,840 Speaker 1: know last week? Do we believe in Devonte Parker a 1062 00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:31,600 Speaker 1: bit more? Moving forward? Well, a lot of his production 1063 00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:34,200 Speaker 1: did come in the second half when the team was 1064 00:53:34,239 --> 00:53:35,880 Speaker 1: actually I think all of his production, all of it 1065 00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:38,359 Speaker 1: in the second half when the team was trailing. He's 1066 00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:42,000 Speaker 1: still tied with Jarvis Landry in the terms of the 1067 00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:44,640 Speaker 1: team targets, which Cynthia pointed out. He's Landry is more 1068 00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:46,360 Speaker 1: productive than Parkers in the offense. This is something I 1069 00:53:46,400 --> 00:53:48,239 Speaker 1: wrote about last year, where you don't want to run 1070 00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:51,719 Speaker 1: the offense through the slot receiver. Parker's presence opens things up, 1071 00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:53,960 Speaker 1: so he is important. This is a good matchup. I 1072 00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:56,080 Speaker 1: think if you're looking for like kind of a what 1073 00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:58,240 Speaker 1: the heck flex sort of thing, I think Parker could 1074 00:53:58,640 --> 00:54:00,719 Speaker 1: pay that off. The worry is that Browns are just 1075 00:54:00,760 --> 00:54:06,280 Speaker 1: gonna get I wor a little bit about the touchdown Steeler. 1076 00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:08,879 Speaker 1: I think this all comes back to words I did 1077 00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:10,959 Speaker 1: not think I was going to hear on today's pot. 1078 00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:13,960 Speaker 1: He's like a wide receiver vulture. You'll have like targets, 1079 00:54:14,320 --> 00:54:17,520 Speaker 1: ultimate touchdown. Wow, that was that a fold? That wasn't 1080 00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:19,239 Speaker 1: a vulture. That's not really I have no idea what 1081 00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:27,560 Speaker 1: sound I think cultures, Yeah, okay, this has been the 1082 00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:31,680 Speaker 1: bird sounds. But I think this all comes back to 1083 00:54:31,760 --> 00:54:34,160 Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry, who, as we said, still lead the team 1084 00:54:34,160 --> 00:54:36,880 Speaker 1: in targets. He's kind of the extension of the running game. Anyways, 1085 00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:38,520 Speaker 1: where there are a lot of questions in the backfield 1086 00:54:38,600 --> 00:54:40,560 Speaker 1: right now. So I think that if you have Landry 1087 00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:43,600 Speaker 1: definitely playing all right Raiders at the Titans, is there 1088 00:54:43,640 --> 00:54:46,239 Speaker 1: anyone you're not playing in this matchup? I mean, I 1089 00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:49,120 Speaker 1: really like the quarterbacks on both sides. I like the 1090 00:54:49,200 --> 00:54:53,439 Speaker 1: running backs everywhere. Defenses, yeah, not playing the defenses? Oh man? 1091 00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:56,399 Speaker 1: What is up with the Raiders defense? They spent all 1092 00:54:56,440 --> 00:54:59,080 Speaker 1: this money, they got all the Sean Smith has not 1093 00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:03,000 Speaker 1: worked out two weeks, has not worked out through two weeks. 1094 00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:05,319 Speaker 1: I think David Amerson did return to practice this week 1095 00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:08,640 Speaker 1: or excuse me today he was working through the concussion protocol. 1096 00:55:08,640 --> 00:55:11,080 Speaker 1: Did return to practice today, So um, at least he'll 1097 00:55:11,080 --> 00:55:13,120 Speaker 1: be out there. He's a pretty good player. But man, 1098 00:55:13,239 --> 00:55:16,840 Speaker 1: this Raiders defense whole league, how are they bad? But 1099 00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:19,120 Speaker 1: but again, is there anybody, uh that you don't like 1100 00:55:19,200 --> 00:55:21,160 Speaker 1: in the you know, we heard from franchise he he 1101 00:55:21,200 --> 00:55:24,960 Speaker 1: said he likes uh Derrick Henry in this matchup as well. 1102 00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:27,480 Speaker 1: I don't necessarily disagree with them there, No, I think 1103 00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:29,520 Speaker 1: Derry Henry has been the better running back and I 1104 00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:33,480 Speaker 1: you know, kind of crunched some basic numbers today and 1105 00:55:33,640 --> 00:55:35,799 Speaker 1: Margot Murray last week had a sixties seven yard run 1106 00:55:35,840 --> 00:55:39,080 Speaker 1: against the Titans. You take that out. Okay, he's averaging 1107 00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:42,319 Speaker 1: about two and a half yards to carry. Okay, that's 1108 00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:44,839 Speaker 1: not good. That's not that's not good. Derrick Henry has 1109 00:55:44,920 --> 00:55:48,200 Speaker 1: looked better and he's started to get more work. I 1110 00:55:48,200 --> 00:55:50,880 Speaker 1: think we all saw it's gonna be limited though, right 1111 00:55:50,920 --> 00:55:53,680 Speaker 1: like he's gonna get at most now. No, No, I'm 1112 00:55:53,719 --> 00:55:55,680 Speaker 1: saying I'm going into I'm going into this week. I mean, 1113 00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:59,239 Speaker 1: I'm obviously I like his season long you know projections. 1114 00:55:59,280 --> 00:56:02,319 Speaker 1: I'm just saying, in this week against the Raiders, how 1115 00:56:02,400 --> 00:56:04,759 Speaker 1: much work is Derrick Henry really gonna get any like 1116 00:56:04,800 --> 00:56:07,200 Speaker 1: ten to twelve touches? Can he do damage with ten 1117 00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:09,239 Speaker 1: to twelve touches? He could? I think I think he 1118 00:56:09,280 --> 00:56:12,279 Speaker 1: will get fewer carries simply because the Raiders are so 1119 00:56:12,440 --> 00:56:15,799 Speaker 1: vulnerable through the air, so that they're also so good. 1120 00:56:15,840 --> 00:56:17,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. I guess to me they're 1121 00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:19,640 Speaker 1: so good they're good for us because that means they're 1122 00:56:19,640 --> 00:56:22,160 Speaker 1: gonna throw the ball more, the most yards on offense 1123 00:56:22,160 --> 00:56:24,239 Speaker 1: and the most yards give it up on defense. So 1124 00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:26,719 Speaker 1: I like that volatility. Yeah, I hear, it's too mad. 1125 00:56:27,080 --> 00:56:32,400 Speaker 1: Uh Marcus Mariotta tremendous uh stream of quarterback this week. Yeah, 1126 00:56:33,840 --> 00:56:38,120 Speaker 1: Sharp a lot. I'm like, I'm basically Taj Sharp's agent. 1127 00:56:39,719 --> 00:56:42,040 Speaker 1: I've said his name probably, oh, I don't know, like 1128 00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:45,439 Speaker 1: sixty five times, and that's where I'm setting the number 1129 00:56:46,280 --> 00:56:49,680 Speaker 1: d I. Yeah that combo. I like that combo this 1130 00:56:49,680 --> 00:56:52,280 Speaker 1: week for sure. Yeah. He takes most of his snaps 1131 00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:55,160 Speaker 1: over on the left side of the field, of which 1132 00:56:55,239 --> 00:56:57,279 Speaker 1: is Oh. By the way, Sean Smith lines up at 1133 00:56:57,320 --> 00:56:59,360 Speaker 1: the right cornerback position a lot, so those two should 1134 00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:02,040 Speaker 1: get to square off plenty of times. We've seen uh 1135 00:57:02,320 --> 00:57:04,960 Speaker 1: Smith get beaten with speed from Brandon Cooks. We've seen 1136 00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:08,120 Speaker 1: getting beaten with route running savvy from Willie Snead, which 1137 00:57:08,160 --> 00:57:09,839 Speaker 1: is kind of more of the player that Sharp is, 1138 00:57:10,160 --> 00:57:12,200 Speaker 1: and a big guy burned him and Julio Jones who 1139 00:57:12,200 --> 00:57:13,839 Speaker 1: burns a lot of people. But you have to be fair. 1140 00:57:13,880 --> 00:57:15,879 Speaker 1: But still, I think that this is a good spot 1141 00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:18,440 Speaker 1: for Sharp and for Delaney Walker. I don't love the 1142 00:57:18,440 --> 00:57:22,160 Speaker 1: Oakland offense. I'm I'm the running backs this week. You 1143 00:57:22,200 --> 00:57:24,920 Speaker 1: don't like I do? I actually a lot I'm not 1144 00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:26,920 Speaker 1: in I mean, I'm not saying, look, if he's your 1145 00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:28,840 Speaker 1: season long running back, then you're putting him in because 1146 00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:30,480 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that there's a better option out there 1147 00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:34,120 Speaker 1: for you, but like DFS plays or something. Not. If 1148 00:57:34,160 --> 00:57:37,440 Speaker 1: I were going to be even considering playing perfect challenge, 1149 00:57:37,840 --> 00:57:43,160 Speaker 1: then I would my perfect challenge would not include there 1150 00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:46,160 Speaker 1: are plenty of guys I like more than Latavius. But 1151 00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:48,600 Speaker 1: what are the warning signs though that that are telling 1152 00:57:48,600 --> 00:57:50,520 Speaker 1: you Latavius might not be a good play this week? 1153 00:57:50,880 --> 00:57:53,400 Speaker 1: It's still a shared backfield. There's there's still they I 1154 00:57:53,440 --> 00:57:57,800 Speaker 1: don't believe that it's anyone guy's game. And also, you know, 1155 00:57:57,840 --> 00:58:01,200 Speaker 1: the Titans defense the only all had one offensive touchdown 1156 00:58:01,240 --> 00:58:03,160 Speaker 1: over the past two games, which is something to me, 1157 00:58:03,200 --> 00:58:05,120 Speaker 1: like those extra like I think that we're going to 1158 00:58:05,200 --> 00:58:07,480 Speaker 1: see more this game, but I think that you know, 1159 00:58:07,600 --> 00:58:09,920 Speaker 1: you want to look and see like okay, right. I 1160 00:58:09,960 --> 00:58:12,280 Speaker 1: also think that's a little misleading considering the Lions had 1161 00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:15,960 Speaker 1: like touchdowns called back by penalty. True, but also to 1162 00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:18,720 Speaker 1: send to this point, those were all like passing touchdowns. 1163 00:58:18,800 --> 00:58:21,120 Speaker 1: I think that there are another defense much like the Bucks, 1164 00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:23,400 Speaker 1: that you struggle to run on because they have good 1165 00:58:23,440 --> 00:58:27,000 Speaker 1: front seven and I really felt like watching it last 1166 00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:29,120 Speaker 1: week that the Lions ran the ball really effectively. You 1167 00:58:29,160 --> 00:58:30,800 Speaker 1: look at the three running backs, I think it's something 1168 00:58:30,840 --> 00:58:33,040 Speaker 1: like one for a hundred and five on the ground 1169 00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:35,560 Speaker 1: that's also inside in the dome, which both those backs 1170 00:58:35,560 --> 00:58:37,760 Speaker 1: are good at. Maybe I'm just making excuse me because 1171 00:58:38,160 --> 00:58:40,080 Speaker 1: I thought I thought they were good against the Vikings 1172 00:58:40,080 --> 00:58:42,120 Speaker 1: in Week one because they sold out. They knew Sean 1173 00:58:42,200 --> 00:58:44,720 Speaker 1: Hill was the quarterback, and they they did everything in 1174 00:58:44,720 --> 00:58:46,600 Speaker 1: their power to say, we want Sean Hill to beat us, 1175 00:58:46,600 --> 00:58:49,160 Speaker 1: and so they sold out to stop Adrian Peterson. Last 1176 00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:50,960 Speaker 1: week when they were facing an offense that's a little 1177 00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:52,520 Speaker 1: more dynamic and they had to be back off a 1178 00:58:52,520 --> 00:58:55,200 Speaker 1: little bit. You saw the Lions run the ball well, 1179 00:58:55,240 --> 00:58:57,240 Speaker 1: and I think because the Raiders will have the ability 1180 00:58:57,280 --> 00:58:59,919 Speaker 1: to get down field and that big offensive line will 1181 00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:02,480 Speaker 1: move bodies up front, I think the Raiders can run 1182 00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:04,560 Speaker 1: the ball on them. I'm scared because at least the 1183 00:59:04,560 --> 00:59:06,880 Speaker 1: Detroit backs can make people miss. When's the last time 1184 00:59:06,880 --> 00:59:13,240 Speaker 1: you saw Otavius Murray make anybody missing space? Great? Great, 1185 00:59:13,280 --> 00:59:16,440 Speaker 1: we can text him later advice. Otavius was a good 1186 00:59:16,440 --> 00:59:18,400 Speaker 1: fantasy back last year because he was floated on a 1187 00:59:18,400 --> 00:59:21,080 Speaker 1: ton of volume. He had saw like almost eighty percent 1188 00:59:21,120 --> 00:59:23,520 Speaker 1: of all the backfield opportunities. All of those guys are 1189 00:59:23,560 --> 00:59:26,080 Speaker 1: coming in and getting passing targets and getting rushing work. 1190 00:59:26,320 --> 00:59:27,760 Speaker 1: If he doesn't get into the end zone, he's going 1191 00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:29,320 Speaker 1: to be a bust for your lineup. He's gonna have 1192 00:59:29,360 --> 00:59:32,440 Speaker 1: like sixty two total yards. Murray was the only running 1193 00:59:32,480 --> 00:59:35,600 Speaker 1: back last year and even from two thousand fourteen to 1194 00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:39,040 Speaker 1: play seventy percent or more of his team snaps this year. Well, 1195 00:59:39,320 --> 00:59:43,160 Speaker 1: last week he played gross. That's not what we expected. 1196 00:59:43,280 --> 00:59:46,600 Speaker 1: No Steeler. We're getting to the late game storylines now. 1197 00:59:46,640 --> 00:59:49,439 Speaker 1: It's burned through some of these, But Steelers Eagles Ryan 1198 00:59:49,520 --> 00:59:51,760 Speaker 1: Matthews has to be on bust alert here against a 1199 00:59:51,800 --> 00:59:54,400 Speaker 1: pretty good run defense. Uh. The Pittsburgh D has given 1200 00:59:54,440 --> 00:59:58,560 Speaker 1: up just a hundred and one rush yards through two games. Uh. 1201 00:59:58,680 --> 01:00:03,959 Speaker 1: Anyone trusting Ryan Matthews in this matchup? No. I trust 1202 01:00:04,040 --> 01:00:07,320 Speaker 1: Darren Sprawls a little more this week than than Ryan Matthews. 1203 01:00:08,080 --> 01:00:10,720 Speaker 1: I'm hearing some drum beats here now for for Darren Sprawls. 1204 01:00:10,720 --> 01:00:13,040 Speaker 1: I thought he looked pretty good too, But he doesn't. 1205 01:00:13,240 --> 01:00:14,959 Speaker 1: I mean, first of all, he got that goal line carry, 1206 01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:17,520 Speaker 1: which was just baffling. That's not really his strength. I 1207 01:00:17,520 --> 01:00:21,000 Speaker 1: don't really understand that, but trying to get him the ball. 1208 01:00:21,080 --> 01:00:23,800 Speaker 1: They have struggled to get him the ball in space, 1209 01:00:23,960 --> 01:00:26,880 Speaker 1: which is what he needs. But but the effort to 1210 01:00:27,000 --> 01:00:30,640 Speaker 1: get him the ball has certainly been there. Sprowls played 1211 01:00:30,680 --> 01:00:33,800 Speaker 1: fifty seven percent of the snaps last week. Ryan Matthews played, 1212 01:00:34,800 --> 01:00:38,200 Speaker 1: which is which is very It's funny because watching that game, 1213 01:00:38,200 --> 01:00:40,240 Speaker 1: everybody's like, you know, people are tweeting like when hell's 1214 01:00:40,280 --> 01:00:44,280 Speaker 1: Ryan Matthews? Why as if, like, I know he's probably 1215 01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:48,000 Speaker 1: in the stage. Let me right now, let me shoot 1216 01:00:48,040 --> 01:00:50,160 Speaker 1: him a text Snapchat, Doug, see what he's up to. 1217 01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:52,200 Speaker 1: I would rather be dead than you snap. That's why 1218 01:00:52,200 --> 01:00:56,400 Speaker 1: I said snapchat when you were talking anyways, aren't you 1219 01:00:56,480 --> 01:00:59,040 Speaker 1: like the youngest one here? Yeah, but I need to 1220 01:00:59,040 --> 01:01:00,640 Speaker 1: know why you don't like up chat that I don't 1221 01:01:00,680 --> 01:01:03,640 Speaker 1: because her mudge No, No, because I just look, look 1222 01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:06,320 Speaker 1: I spend. This is the same reason that I'm not 1223 01:01:06,360 --> 01:01:08,840 Speaker 1: really interested in other sports because so much of my 1224 01:01:08,920 --> 01:01:11,920 Speaker 1: brain is dedicated to football that if I started, like 1225 01:01:12,440 --> 01:01:14,440 Speaker 1: bringing in other sports in it, I would start to 1226 01:01:14,480 --> 01:01:17,479 Speaker 1: forget like important information like where I live, Like what's 1227 01:01:18,120 --> 01:01:20,320 Speaker 1: what's my I Like? It's like I wouldn't forget important 1228 01:01:20,320 --> 01:01:23,320 Speaker 1: information like how many snaps. Well no, no, no no, yeah, 1229 01:01:23,760 --> 01:01:25,840 Speaker 1: that's that's what I'm saying. I would forget where I 1230 01:01:25,920 --> 01:01:28,320 Speaker 1: live instead. No, but I'm saying like it would start 1231 01:01:28,320 --> 01:01:30,320 Speaker 1: to infringe on important information. The same thing with like 1232 01:01:30,360 --> 01:01:33,680 Speaker 1: other social media. Because I'm on Twitter all of the time. 1233 01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:37,040 Speaker 1: You live in a very tenuous reality, dude, nothing is 1234 01:01:37,080 --> 01:01:41,240 Speaker 1: real with me, but not, I mean reality in general is. 1235 01:01:41,320 --> 01:01:43,320 Speaker 1: So you're just very loyal to Twitter. Well, no, it's 1236 01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:45,040 Speaker 1: I just don't want to. I don't want to dedicate 1237 01:01:45,040 --> 01:01:46,880 Speaker 1: any more time to any other social media because I 1238 01:01:46,920 --> 01:01:49,120 Speaker 1: didn't feel like it become less of a real person 1239 01:01:49,280 --> 01:01:51,600 Speaker 1: involved in my real life. So I don't want to 1240 01:01:51,600 --> 01:01:54,040 Speaker 1: because I'm all, this is a legit feelings podcast, right, 1241 01:01:54,120 --> 01:01:58,000 Speaker 1: which which thank god, I have been trying to turn 1242 01:01:58,040 --> 01:02:01,440 Speaker 1: this thing into the Feelings podcast for a year. Out 1243 01:02:01,480 --> 01:02:03,200 Speaker 1: about once an episode, He's like, when are we gonna 1244 01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:06,840 Speaker 1: get the Feelings podcast? So yeah, Cynthia, we will eventually 1245 01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:10,360 Speaker 1: launch a feelings podcast. Is this Jordan Matthews game? Because 1246 01:02:10,400 --> 01:02:13,000 Speaker 1: Pittsburgh is as good as they are on the ground, 1247 01:02:13,120 --> 01:02:16,000 Speaker 1: just I mean equally bad. Uh In the second area 1248 01:02:16,040 --> 01:02:19,160 Speaker 1: there they've given up six pass yards, the second most 1249 01:02:19,640 --> 01:02:22,440 Speaker 1: Uh in the NFL. H Harmy, you wrote a great 1250 01:02:22,440 --> 01:02:24,480 Speaker 1: piece about this in regard to your next gen stance 1251 01:02:24,560 --> 01:02:29,520 Speaker 1: part about how a big slot receivers UH have been 1252 01:02:30,040 --> 01:02:32,120 Speaker 1: doing pretty well in the NFL right now? Hey, thanks 1253 01:02:32,120 --> 01:02:34,040 Speaker 1: for the backpat. I only wrote it because you emailed me. 1254 01:02:34,040 --> 01:02:35,040 Speaker 1: It was like, you know what I think would be 1255 01:02:35,040 --> 01:02:37,480 Speaker 1: a good piece, You should write this, so I did. 1256 01:02:38,040 --> 01:02:40,000 Speaker 1: But no, yeah, I mean, big slot receivers are definitely 1257 01:02:40,040 --> 01:02:41,880 Speaker 1: becoming like a new thing that we need to look at. 1258 01:02:42,240 --> 01:02:44,560 Speaker 1: Jordan Matthews actually playing less than the slot this year 1259 01:02:44,840 --> 01:02:47,400 Speaker 1: than he did in years past. He's accumulated about sixty 1260 01:02:47,440 --> 01:02:49,400 Speaker 1: seven percent of his yards from the slot, whereas he 1261 01:02:49,400 --> 01:02:52,439 Speaker 1: played nineties eight seven percent of his snaps last year. 1262 01:02:52,600 --> 01:02:54,680 Speaker 1: So he's definitely moving around a little bit more, but 1263 01:02:55,040 --> 01:02:57,720 Speaker 1: he's primarily getting most of his production from the slot. 1264 01:02:57,800 --> 01:03:00,240 Speaker 1: So I do think that that creates nice match ups 1265 01:03:00,240 --> 01:03:03,000 Speaker 1: for him as a big athlete guy. I mean, he's 1266 01:03:03,000 --> 01:03:05,479 Speaker 1: not the most like athletic specimen, but at the same time, 1267 01:03:05,840 --> 01:03:08,160 Speaker 1: with this size, he matches up well against slot corners. 1268 01:03:08,400 --> 01:03:10,120 Speaker 1: I think this is a fine game for him. For me, 1269 01:03:10,200 --> 01:03:13,160 Speaker 1: it comes more to how is Carson Wentz going to 1270 01:03:13,200 --> 01:03:15,520 Speaker 1: play against a real NFL defense because he played the 1271 01:03:15,560 --> 01:03:18,000 Speaker 1: Browns in Week one. We did see him complete those 1272 01:03:18,040 --> 01:03:20,280 Speaker 1: passes over twenty are yards, which is something that you 1273 01:03:20,320 --> 01:03:22,240 Speaker 1: look for because if you don't even get it there, 1274 01:03:22,240 --> 01:03:24,200 Speaker 1: if you can't even if it doesn't even get close, 1275 01:03:24,280 --> 01:03:27,040 Speaker 1: then that's a really scary You also saw so game 1276 01:03:27,080 --> 01:03:29,800 Speaker 1: one against the Browns longer passes, two of them, two 1277 01:03:29,800 --> 01:03:32,360 Speaker 1: of the three ended up being touchdowns. Game two you 1278 01:03:32,400 --> 01:03:35,439 Speaker 1: saw shorter passes, executing more of a game plan. Even 1279 01:03:35,440 --> 01:03:38,360 Speaker 1: though he was a little scary with his body, like 1280 01:03:38,400 --> 01:03:41,000 Speaker 1: putting getting himself into he could get hurt, he did 1281 01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:43,080 Speaker 1: stay in the pocket more often. Our next Gen stats 1282 01:03:43,280 --> 01:03:46,080 Speaker 1: they came up with something helped me on this one 1283 01:03:46,360 --> 01:03:49,560 Speaker 1: versus like in game one. So he he's learning the 1284 01:03:49,600 --> 01:03:52,520 Speaker 1: offense and what what is being expected of him, but 1285 01:03:52,600 --> 01:03:54,440 Speaker 1: also the unice if he stepped out of bounds and 1286 01:03:54,440 --> 01:03:57,200 Speaker 1: just kind of avoided those hits though as well as 1287 01:03:57,280 --> 01:03:58,840 Speaker 1: much as yeah, no, I mean, it was scary to 1288 01:03:58,840 --> 01:04:01,960 Speaker 1: watch him get locked a few times there, but now 1289 01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:05,000 Speaker 1: he proved he's tough, let's keep it. That was almost 1290 01:04:05,080 --> 01:04:07,000 Speaker 1: an encouraging thing, like you're saying, because in week one, 1291 01:04:07,040 --> 01:04:09,280 Speaker 1: I remember, as everybody's freaking about Oh my god, Carson Wentz. 1292 01:04:09,280 --> 01:04:11,600 Speaker 1: He's doing like that guy is not getting pressured at all. 1293 01:04:11,880 --> 01:04:13,480 Speaker 1: He had a clean pocket. I think he was only 1294 01:04:13,560 --> 01:04:16,280 Speaker 1: hurried three times in week one. It was just outrage. 1295 01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:19,040 Speaker 1: But he made some great runs on the throw throws 1296 01:04:19,080 --> 01:04:22,000 Speaker 1: on the run. Wow English, that one that one did 1297 01:04:22,040 --> 01:04:25,680 Speaker 1: Nelson at goat Law. But you know he's like running 1298 01:04:25,760 --> 01:04:28,600 Speaker 1: left and he puts it only where Agar could catch 1299 01:04:28,640 --> 01:04:31,400 Speaker 1: it right like it was an insane Those types of 1300 01:04:31,400 --> 01:04:33,920 Speaker 1: things look really encouraging to me. I think that's more 1301 01:04:33,920 --> 01:04:35,680 Speaker 1: of what you see against the Steelers because you're not 1302 01:04:35,720 --> 01:04:37,320 Speaker 1: gonna be able to dial up the run game as 1303 01:04:37,400 --> 01:04:43,480 Speaker 1: much as you did. Alright, so the deep shriek there. Uh, 1304 01:04:43,640 --> 01:04:46,480 Speaker 1: we're going to peel the curtain back here a little bit. 1305 01:04:46,680 --> 01:04:48,960 Speaker 1: Had a little bit of a technical issue at the 1306 01:04:49,080 --> 01:04:51,800 Speaker 1: end of this podcast. Thus we are back in the 1307 01:04:51,800 --> 01:04:54,120 Speaker 1: podcast room now. Alright. Uh, we're gonna talk about the 1308 01:04:54,200 --> 01:04:56,560 Speaker 1: last two games. Your charges like colts should, we should 1309 01:04:56,720 --> 01:04:59,240 Speaker 1: we don't have the services. We are down. We're down. 1310 01:04:59,280 --> 01:05:01,760 Speaker 1: A very important in the podcast. As soon as we 1311 01:05:01,800 --> 01:05:04,960 Speaker 1: were done taping the original time, she bolted, do you 1312 01:05:04,960 --> 01:05:08,120 Speaker 1: see what happened? Understandably happens when you have people over. 1313 01:05:10,560 --> 01:05:12,560 Speaker 1: She was like, I did I did that. I gotta 1314 01:05:12,600 --> 01:05:14,919 Speaker 1: get this is why we can't have nice That's why 1315 01:05:14,920 --> 01:05:16,880 Speaker 1: we can't have nice things. We can't have guests, we 1316 01:05:16,880 --> 01:05:19,800 Speaker 1: can only have us idiots. And we got two games 1317 01:05:19,880 --> 01:05:23,200 Speaker 1: left here on the late game storylines. Here, Chargers at Colts, 1318 01:05:23,320 --> 01:05:26,080 Speaker 1: it's anticipated to be a shootout. I told you about 1319 01:05:26,160 --> 01:05:28,960 Speaker 1: Jack Doyle. I think a lot of folks, like pretty 1320 01:05:29,040 --> 01:05:31,360 Speaker 1: much everybody in this game now, yeah, I think this 1321 01:05:31,440 --> 01:05:34,400 Speaker 1: is definitely a solid shootout spot. I don't know if 1322 01:05:34,400 --> 01:05:37,480 Speaker 1: it's for sure, you know, because this charges offense. While 1323 01:05:37,520 --> 01:05:40,360 Speaker 1: it looked good inst Jacksonville at home, are they going 1324 01:05:40,400 --> 01:05:42,400 Speaker 1: to look as good on the road? I think Indianapolis 1325 01:05:42,440 --> 01:05:44,880 Speaker 1: Secondary will certainly aid them in the matter. Though Rock 1326 01:05:45,160 --> 01:05:48,160 Speaker 1: Davis is scheduled to play. I think he is going 1327 01:05:48,200 --> 01:05:50,280 Speaker 1: to be back, which is definitely a nice boost for them. 1328 01:05:50,320 --> 01:05:52,840 Speaker 1: But at the same time, I like Travis Benjamin Tyrol 1329 01:05:52,880 --> 01:05:57,200 Speaker 1: Williams is worth the flyer, Melvin Gordon probablydicated. Yeah, I 1330 01:05:57,200 --> 01:05:59,400 Speaker 1: mean RB one at least a top ten play this 1331 01:05:59,440 --> 01:06:02,360 Speaker 1: week for sure. Alright, Jets at Chiefs, Revas is gonna 1332 01:06:02,400 --> 01:06:06,120 Speaker 1: be on Macklin, so obviously Maclin's gonna go off. Oh right, well, wow, 1333 01:06:06,200 --> 01:06:08,880 Speaker 1: this is where we are now. James didn't pour enough 1334 01:06:08,920 --> 01:06:13,240 Speaker 1: dirt on that the first time around. Nobody, nobody loves 1335 01:06:13,280 --> 01:06:15,840 Speaker 1: to throw dirt on the grave of veterans more than 1336 01:06:16,120 --> 01:06:18,680 Speaker 1: James co If you're seven, He's a first ballot Hall 1337 01:06:18,720 --> 01:06:21,040 Speaker 1: of Famer, and I get it he's working back in 1338 01:06:21,160 --> 01:06:24,720 Speaker 1: terms of conditioning, but my god, he looked terrible in 1339 01:06:24,760 --> 01:06:31,880 Speaker 1: the first two weeks. Yeah. True, it doesn't matter, Thank 1340 01:06:31,920 --> 01:06:35,120 Speaker 1: you me, um. I know. I really like Macklin in 1341 01:06:35,120 --> 01:06:37,400 Speaker 1: this spot, though, you know I'm with you on that. 1342 01:06:37,520 --> 01:06:39,640 Speaker 1: Whether Vas covers him or not. It's actually kind of 1343 01:06:39,640 --> 01:06:44,000 Speaker 1: an interesting question because Reva's primarily stuck at left cornerback 1344 01:06:44,080 --> 01:06:47,160 Speaker 1: in week two after getting dog walked all over the 1345 01:06:47,200 --> 01:06:49,880 Speaker 1: field by a j Green week one. H and Macklin 1346 01:06:49,920 --> 01:06:52,440 Speaker 1: saw fifteen targets last week, which was the most of 1347 01:06:52,480 --> 01:06:55,120 Speaker 1: any wide receiver last week. So I really like him 1348 01:06:55,120 --> 01:06:58,240 Speaker 1: in this spot to be a top ten play potentially 1349 01:06:58,280 --> 01:06:59,680 Speaker 1: this week. I think he has that kind of upside 1350 01:06:59,720 --> 01:07:03,440 Speaker 1: his right Jamal Charles ruled doubtful for this game. It 1351 01:07:03,480 --> 01:07:05,360 Speaker 1: doesn't look like he's gonna play. He's only still been 1352 01:07:05,400 --> 01:07:10,080 Speaker 1: working in practice anyways with the scout team. Uh, Marcus Grant, 1353 01:07:10,160 --> 01:07:12,680 Speaker 1: give me a I guess a projection. What should we 1354 01:07:12,720 --> 01:07:15,280 Speaker 1: expect I guess from spencer Ware. I mean, I think 1355 01:07:15,440 --> 01:07:17,240 Speaker 1: I think you'll see it won't be like Week one. 1356 01:07:17,280 --> 01:07:18,920 Speaker 1: It's probably closer to what we saw from him in 1357 01:07:18,960 --> 01:07:21,520 Speaker 1: week two. I mean, he's a volume guy, and I 1358 01:07:21,520 --> 01:07:24,240 Speaker 1: think the thing we've learned about spencer Ware and the 1359 01:07:24,320 --> 01:07:27,080 Speaker 1: Chiefs I guess I guess saying learned because we knew 1360 01:07:27,120 --> 01:07:30,480 Speaker 1: this when Jamal Charles was there. But games script doesn't 1361 01:07:30,520 --> 01:07:33,720 Speaker 1: necessarily apply to the Chiefs running backs. If they fall 1362 01:07:33,760 --> 01:07:36,480 Speaker 1: behind and they can't run the football, they can still 1363 01:07:36,520 --> 01:07:38,360 Speaker 1: be effective through the air. I mean we saw that 1364 01:07:38,400 --> 01:07:40,600 Speaker 1: in Week one the Chargers jumped out to a big lead. 1365 01:07:40,640 --> 01:07:42,320 Speaker 1: We were worried that spencer Ware was going to become 1366 01:07:42,360 --> 01:07:43,920 Speaker 1: a non factor. That's what do you do? You put 1367 01:07:44,000 --> 01:07:46,320 Speaker 1: up like a hundred and twenty yards receiving no big deal. 1368 01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:49,320 Speaker 1: So I think, you know, regardless of how this game goes, 1369 01:07:49,800 --> 01:07:51,760 Speaker 1: you don't have to worry about where being taken out 1370 01:07:51,800 --> 01:07:53,800 Speaker 1: of the flow of the game. Does Matt Forte keep 1371 01:07:53,840 --> 01:07:55,680 Speaker 1: this up? I mean they've just been running this guy 1372 01:07:55,720 --> 01:07:58,040 Speaker 1: into the ground. Does he keep up this kind of volume? 1373 01:07:58,520 --> 01:08:00,360 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any reason to expect not to. 1374 01:08:00,480 --> 01:08:02,480 Speaker 1: They've been They're gonna keep feeding him until we said 1375 01:08:02,480 --> 01:08:04,800 Speaker 1: on the other podcast, he's the RB one overall or 1376 01:08:04,920 --> 01:08:08,120 Speaker 1: on I R. So just keep keep firing out Matt 1377 01:08:08,120 --> 01:08:10,200 Speaker 1: Forte right now, he's got a big role in this office. 1378 01:08:10,320 --> 01:08:12,560 Speaker 1: Jets are literally going to ride or die with Matt Forte. 1379 01:08:12,760 --> 01:08:15,840 Speaker 1: I mean, but it's crazy to do this though, I mean, 1380 01:08:15,960 --> 01:08:18,599 Speaker 1: especially if they're if they have postseason plans. I don't 1381 01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:21,920 Speaker 1: understand the work rate right now for a guy like 1382 01:08:21,960 --> 01:08:24,439 Speaker 1: Matt Forte, who I would assume you want to keep fresh, 1383 01:08:24,520 --> 01:08:29,599 Speaker 1: especially when you have second credible backup. And I mean 1384 01:08:29,640 --> 01:08:32,479 Speaker 1: at some point Todd Bowl is going to figure this out. No, sure, 1385 01:08:33,720 --> 01:08:36,000 Speaker 1: he's not giving us any indication that he is so far, 1386 01:08:36,120 --> 01:08:38,240 Speaker 1: and Forte has been living up to the hype with 1387 01:08:38,280 --> 01:08:40,960 Speaker 1: all with this amount of carries. So just keep keep 1388 01:08:41,160 --> 01:08:43,400 Speaker 1: keep riding him if you have him, don't don't get worried, 1389 01:08:43,439 --> 01:08:47,600 Speaker 1: don't overthink it. As we mentioned before, Brandon Marshall questionable, 1390 01:08:47,680 --> 01:08:49,960 Speaker 1: but I don't know, just given a track record, I'd 1391 01:08:50,000 --> 01:08:52,200 Speaker 1: be surprised if he doesn't play. Eric Decker a full 1392 01:08:52,200 --> 01:08:54,400 Speaker 1: going practice on Friday, so he should be good. Fire up, 1393 01:08:54,439 --> 01:08:57,760 Speaker 1: so you're starting, of course, are you sure? Are you 1394 01:08:57,800 --> 01:09:01,160 Speaker 1: gonna have Eric Decker in a single? All zero leagues 1395 01:09:01,200 --> 01:09:04,160 Speaker 1: and he doesn't have it? That's why you don't win 1396 01:09:04,200 --> 01:09:08,120 Speaker 1: in fantasy, bro, what oh how do you just fire 1397 01:09:08,160 --> 01:09:11,160 Speaker 1: those shots out? It's really it's like it's like you 1398 01:09:11,280 --> 01:09:14,640 Speaker 1: just met him. By by the way, people people on 1399 01:09:14,680 --> 01:09:19,360 Speaker 1: Twitter take this thing so seriously, it's so sorry, y'all 1400 01:09:19,360 --> 01:09:24,680 Speaker 1: made calm. Okay, admittedly I might have poked that fire. Yeah, no, James, like, 1401 01:09:24,840 --> 01:09:31,240 Speaker 1: I'm I'm working. Then Marcus is sprain, yes, like hand 1402 01:09:31,240 --> 01:09:34,640 Speaker 1: delivering coals, you know. And then here's the thing. And 1403 01:09:34,640 --> 01:09:37,200 Speaker 1: then I respond to a Matt Harmon tweet about my 1404 01:09:37,360 --> 01:09:40,479 Speaker 1: quote unquote slander of Eric Decker today. I don't even 1405 01:09:40,479 --> 01:09:43,120 Speaker 1: know how I did that, but by saying, oh, I 1406 01:09:43,160 --> 01:09:45,840 Speaker 1: forget it, Eric Decker, top three wide receiver, forget I 1407 01:09:45,880 --> 01:09:47,720 Speaker 1: love him, forget it, you know, just leave me alone now, 1408 01:09:47,960 --> 01:09:49,720 Speaker 1: and then somebody hits me back when how could you 1409 01:09:49,720 --> 01:09:55,200 Speaker 1: say he's the top three one chief you can't win? 1410 01:09:55,320 --> 01:09:58,559 Speaker 1: Let me here basically the Skip Bayliss of the NFL 1411 01:09:58,600 --> 01:10:01,439 Speaker 1: Fantasy that's guests. So I mean I'm not I'm not 1412 01:10:01,439 --> 01:10:05,720 Speaker 1: taking a lot of this seriously embraced the role. All right, 1413 01:10:05,760 --> 01:10:07,720 Speaker 1: let's do daily deps. Get at here. Wait, we have 1414 01:10:07,760 --> 01:10:09,479 Speaker 1: sleepers to hit. We gotta go around on the horn 1415 01:10:09,479 --> 01:10:12,839 Speaker 1: of Hanal quick sleepers, said Doyle. I like Jack Doyle's sleeper. 1416 01:10:12,960 --> 01:10:14,760 Speaker 1: Like I said, I think, I think not only this week, 1417 01:10:14,800 --> 01:10:17,360 Speaker 1: I think season long, season long. I think he's gonna 1418 01:10:17,400 --> 01:10:19,680 Speaker 1: be a top ten tight end. Who is it that 1419 01:10:19,720 --> 01:10:22,960 Speaker 1: Cynthia mentioned in the first taping she said, Quincy who 1420 01:10:22,960 --> 01:10:25,040 Speaker 1: we didn't touch on them, and Danny Lasco has a 1421 01:10:25,080 --> 01:10:28,320 Speaker 1: season long potential play. We didn't touch on him in 1422 01:10:28,360 --> 01:10:31,120 Speaker 1: this re refresh. But he's basically their tight end, is 1423 01:10:31,160 --> 01:10:33,000 Speaker 1: what we said in that last one. Right, he's taken 1424 01:10:33,040 --> 01:10:36,400 Speaker 1: twelve percent of his snaps at tight end in the slot. 1425 01:10:36,479 --> 01:10:39,559 Speaker 1: He's really fitting in well with this offense, which does 1426 01:10:39,640 --> 01:10:41,720 Speaker 1: like to spread the field. I think he right now 1427 01:10:41,800 --> 01:10:45,679 Speaker 1: is a viable flex play regardless of whether Marshall uh 1428 01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:48,160 Speaker 1: suits up or not. This Chief's defense really isn't what 1429 01:10:48,160 --> 01:10:50,000 Speaker 1: it used to be. They've only sacked the quarterback three 1430 01:10:50,040 --> 01:10:53,080 Speaker 1: times through two games. Marcus Peters is a playmaker, but 1431 01:10:53,160 --> 01:10:55,000 Speaker 1: he can be beat. So I really kind of like 1432 01:10:55,080 --> 01:10:57,040 Speaker 1: this this game to shoot out and if that is 1433 01:10:57,080 --> 01:11:00,200 Speaker 1: the case, then Noon was gonna be certainly viable. He's 1434 01:11:00,200 --> 01:11:03,080 Speaker 1: caught thirteen of his fourteen targets percent by sleepers. We 1435 01:11:03,120 --> 01:11:04,760 Speaker 1: mentioned Jared Cook a little bit off the top. For 1436 01:11:04,800 --> 01:11:06,920 Speaker 1: all those reasons, I think this could be a good opportunity. 1437 01:11:07,000 --> 01:11:08,680 Speaker 1: The Packers might run a few more two tight end 1438 01:11:08,720 --> 01:11:11,920 Speaker 1: sets given their struggles at wide receiver and Shane Vereen 1439 01:11:11,960 --> 01:11:14,639 Speaker 1: with rashand Jennings being a little nicked up that game 1440 01:11:14,680 --> 01:11:17,280 Speaker 1: against the Red the Redskins, who knows how it's gonna go. 1441 01:11:17,320 --> 01:11:19,240 Speaker 1: But Verene's been getting some run between the tackles, still 1442 01:11:19,280 --> 01:11:21,759 Speaker 1: catches some passes. If you know you're looking for frisky 1443 01:11:21,800 --> 01:11:24,760 Speaker 1: sleeper there. I like it. Marcus. I'm gonna go Jordan Howard. 1444 01:11:24,800 --> 01:11:26,599 Speaker 1: That's kind of more of a long term view because 1445 01:11:26,600 --> 01:11:28,560 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna start gobbling up more carries in 1446 01:11:28,640 --> 01:11:31,000 Speaker 1: that bagfield because Jeremy Lankford just hasn't gotten it done. 1447 01:11:31,479 --> 01:11:34,280 Speaker 1: Uh this week. I still believe in Vance McDonald. I 1448 01:11:34,320 --> 01:11:37,599 Speaker 1: think you find some holes in the Seattle defense, and um, 1449 01:11:37,680 --> 01:11:39,080 Speaker 1: you know, this could be a game where the Niners 1450 01:11:39,080 --> 01:11:42,880 Speaker 1: have to throw late to that certainly could help. That's good. Yeah, 1451 01:11:42,960 --> 01:11:45,360 Speaker 1: My sleeper for this week. I think is Taj Sharp. 1452 01:11:45,479 --> 01:11:47,720 Speaker 1: We've talked about him. I feel I don't remember what 1453 01:11:47,720 --> 01:11:49,160 Speaker 1: the hell we talked about when we first taped this. 1454 01:11:50,000 --> 01:11:51,240 Speaker 1: I feel like he's in this. I mean, I don't know. 1455 01:11:51,240 --> 01:11:52,559 Speaker 1: I feel like we we talked about him a lot, 1456 01:11:52,600 --> 01:11:54,760 Speaker 1: so we talked about about our world, but he hadn't 1457 01:11:54,760 --> 01:11:57,000 Speaker 1: really done anything. He's also only think owned in like 1458 01:11:57,040 --> 01:11:59,120 Speaker 1: ten percent of NFL dot com leagues, which you know 1459 01:11:59,160 --> 01:12:01,280 Speaker 1: we talked about. It can be wake up shape, but yeah, 1460 01:12:01,320 --> 01:12:02,920 Speaker 1: I think, well, for one, I was, I was in 1461 01:12:02,920 --> 01:12:04,920 Speaker 1: the league, and I like I ended up dropping him 1462 01:12:05,000 --> 01:12:07,599 Speaker 1: for Tyrol Williams regretted it picked him back up again. 1463 01:12:08,760 --> 01:12:10,679 Speaker 1: But so I think people are in that mindset. He's 1464 01:12:10,680 --> 01:12:13,680 Speaker 1: really done anything the first two weeks. But he plays 1465 01:12:13,720 --> 01:12:15,400 Speaker 1: on the side where Shaun Smith plays a lot. I 1466 01:12:15,400 --> 01:12:17,160 Speaker 1: think that he's going to have his first big week. 1467 01:12:17,200 --> 01:12:19,839 Speaker 1: He still leads the team in wide receiver targets and snaps, 1468 01:12:20,080 --> 01:12:23,320 Speaker 1: but also keep an eye on Richard Higgins, the Browns 1469 01:12:23,320 --> 01:12:26,360 Speaker 1: wide receiver. He's a reception perception favorite. He's not played 1470 01:12:26,400 --> 01:12:28,120 Speaker 1: yet this year. No, he's but I think he's been 1471 01:12:28,160 --> 01:12:30,320 Speaker 1: on the field, but he hasn't done it. Recorded a 1472 01:12:30,360 --> 01:12:33,040 Speaker 1: stat By the way, for the record, the Eric Decker 1473 01:12:33,240 --> 01:12:36,120 Speaker 1: that James slandered in the rundown is actually a social 1474 01:12:36,120 --> 01:12:38,360 Speaker 1: studies teacher. E. R. I. C. K. Decker is a 1475 01:12:38,400 --> 01:12:41,439 Speaker 1: social studies teacher all our middle school located in dire, Indiana. 1476 01:12:42,120 --> 01:12:44,800 Speaker 1: So I really thought you were referencing, like Eric Sermon apologies, 1477 01:12:45,040 --> 01:12:48,120 Speaker 1: Eric Decker, that that James Exon slandered in the rundown 1478 01:12:48,200 --> 01:12:51,400 Speaker 1: there and put that on Twitter. Alright, If I don't 1479 01:12:51,400 --> 01:12:53,720 Speaker 1: like that, I don't like that Eric Decker to catch 1480 01:12:53,720 --> 01:12:55,240 Speaker 1: a touchdown this week. Yeah, I don't think his odds 1481 01:12:55,240 --> 01:12:57,760 Speaker 1: a very good. Alright, we'll get eighty yards though, because 1482 01:12:58,800 --> 01:13:01,439 Speaker 1: it's eight yards ortiz all right, DAPs and get out 1483 01:13:01,439 --> 01:13:14,600 Speaker 1: of here. Let's do it alright daily dap time we 1484 01:13:14,640 --> 01:13:17,240 Speaker 1: go to the kid from Wisconsin. What's up? A couple 1485 01:13:17,240 --> 01:13:19,400 Speaker 1: of DAPs? First one, I'm gonn throw one out to time. 1486 01:13:19,479 --> 01:13:21,200 Speaker 1: I think you'll hit on this a little bit as well, James. 1487 01:13:21,200 --> 01:13:22,920 Speaker 1: If we go with the same depths but playing Colin 1488 01:13:23,000 --> 01:13:26,640 Speaker 1: Kaepernick on the cover for his peaceful protests and the 1489 01:13:26,680 --> 01:13:28,720 Speaker 1: conversations that it's brought up and all the people that 1490 01:13:28,760 --> 01:13:31,240 Speaker 1: have jumped in on it, I think that's tremendous. And 1491 01:13:31,280 --> 01:13:33,720 Speaker 1: as the resident movie buff on this podcast, I went 1492 01:13:33,760 --> 01:13:36,599 Speaker 1: to see Sully last week. Enjoyable. One of those movies 1493 01:13:36,600 --> 01:13:38,840 Speaker 1: where you know the ending, you know what's happening, but 1494 01:13:39,280 --> 01:13:40,920 Speaker 1: the movie still is a good job of holding your 1495 01:13:40,920 --> 01:13:43,400 Speaker 1: attention and keeping you engaged and excited the whole time. 1496 01:13:43,479 --> 01:13:45,599 Speaker 1: So I like it. Kudos to all involved with that, 1497 01:13:45,640 --> 01:13:47,760 Speaker 1: and yes, Tom Hanks was excellent. There you go. I 1498 01:13:47,760 --> 01:13:49,320 Speaker 1: will pick you back off of what you were saying 1499 01:13:49,320 --> 01:13:52,200 Speaker 1: there with Colin Kaepernick. I'll daily dap both Doug Baldwin 1500 01:13:52,360 --> 01:13:55,640 Speaker 1: and Richard Sherman, who spent their entire press conference their 1501 01:13:55,680 --> 01:14:01,200 Speaker 1: media availability yesterday, uh Thursday, addressing some of the you know, uh, 1502 01:14:01,240 --> 01:14:05,120 Speaker 1: difficult social situations that we've got uh in America today, 1503 01:14:05,479 --> 01:14:08,840 Speaker 1: and they really were not addressing football questions. They put 1504 01:14:08,840 --> 01:14:11,439 Speaker 1: themselves front and center, um and really trying to bring 1505 01:14:11,479 --> 01:14:13,479 Speaker 1: some of this stuff to light. And I just you 1506 01:14:13,520 --> 01:14:15,320 Speaker 1: know what, man, I just like that. I like the 1507 01:14:15,320 --> 01:14:17,360 Speaker 1: fact that they're getting out in front of it. And 1508 01:14:17,439 --> 01:14:19,800 Speaker 1: you know, I've seen online to where right where it's like, 1509 01:14:19,880 --> 01:14:23,000 Speaker 1: you know, people are kind of calling this possibly uh 1510 01:14:23,040 --> 01:14:27,799 Speaker 1: the second civil rights movement uh here state side um 1511 01:14:27,840 --> 01:14:30,000 Speaker 1: and to kind of remember that even back then in 1512 01:14:30,040 --> 01:14:33,759 Speaker 1: the mid sixties, the civil rights movement was not very popular. 1513 01:14:34,080 --> 01:14:37,639 Speaker 1: It wasn't popular at all, just like this movement uh 1514 01:14:37,640 --> 01:14:41,760 Speaker 1: here today it's quite honestly not very popular. Uh. But 1515 01:14:42,200 --> 01:14:44,120 Speaker 1: what side of history do you want to be on 1516 01:14:44,200 --> 01:14:47,320 Speaker 1: when they start writing about this thing thirty years from now, 1517 01:14:47,439 --> 01:14:49,640 Speaker 1: forty years from now. What do you want to be 1518 01:14:49,720 --> 01:14:52,040 Speaker 1: able to tell your grandkids? What side of the fence 1519 01:14:52,160 --> 01:14:56,360 Speaker 1: were you on in that uh, in that movement? And 1520 01:14:56,400 --> 01:14:58,840 Speaker 1: I and I keep that in mind, uh when I 1521 01:14:58,880 --> 01:15:01,479 Speaker 1: start thinking about all the social issues that we got 1522 01:15:01,520 --> 01:15:04,799 Speaker 1: going on. But Daily Depths Doug Baldwin and Richard Sherman 1523 01:15:04,840 --> 01:15:07,160 Speaker 1: Man for putting themselves out there and they really didn't 1524 01:15:07,160 --> 01:15:10,000 Speaker 1: have to, but they chose to, uh, and they are 1525 01:15:10,000 --> 01:15:13,360 Speaker 1: trying to impact change and in daily Depths all day long. 1526 01:15:14,000 --> 01:15:16,240 Speaker 1: To that, I also Daily Depths since they freely by 1527 01:15:16,240 --> 01:15:19,480 Speaker 1: the way for for before joining us in this podcast, 1528 01:15:19,800 --> 01:15:23,040 Speaker 1: buying us a bag of burritos.
