Speaker 1: experience in the world. This is I Want Your Flex

4
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: with Dan Bayer and Mike Harmon. Mike and Dan break

5
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:21,959
Speaker 1: down everything you need to set your lineups, from position

6
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,520
Speaker 1: rankings to starts and sits. The guys help you make

7
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:29,880
Speaker 1: those hard decisions. And now let's get your flex. Ond

8
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:32,640
Speaker 1: Here's Dan Bayer and Mike Harmon.

9
00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:36,520
Speaker 2: Welcome into I Want Your Flex. He is Mike Harmon,

10
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:38,879
Speaker 2: I'm Dan Bayer. That's Ian Roddy. Glad to have you

11
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:42,640
Speaker 2: with us in our midweek episode. And let's just dive

12
00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:46,600
Speaker 2: run into it because there really wasn't anything mid about

13
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,920
Speaker 2: Shor Sanders, even in a loss against the Tennessee Titans.

14
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 2: He is our topic the conversation as we start things out. Mike,

15
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 2: he's coming off of a performance where he threw for

16
00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:00,160
Speaker 2: over three hundred and sixty yards. Yeah, the Browns ended

17
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 2: up losing to the Titans, but all we could talk

18
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,680
Speaker 2: about is why wasn't he on the field at the

19
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:07,960
Speaker 2: two point conversion? So there's so much value in conversation

20
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:10,320
Speaker 2: about shade Or Sanders. How do you look at the

21
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,039
Speaker 2: rookie quarterback now as we enter these four final four

22
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 2: weeks of the season.

23
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 3: Now we go back to the police classic of King

24
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:20,200
Speaker 3: of Pain. That's normally what we get from Cleveland quarterbacks. No,

25
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 3: not so fast. Someone injecting some life. Harold Fannin's become

26
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 3: a go to tight end play week in week out

27
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 3: going forward. This week he got a game against my

28
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 3: beloved Chicago Bears. One thing we know is you can

29
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 3: move the ball on the Bears. Are they going to

30
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 3: be opportunistic and probably you have a takeaway or two

31
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 3: against him? Absolutely, but they've been able to scheme it up.

32
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 3: And whatever the truth is with his relationship with Stefanski

33
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 3: the other folks in the room, he says all the

34
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 3: right things. Players seem to respond and he is the

35
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 3: King of Yak. Just to finish that police analogy, King

36
00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,919
Speaker 3: of Yak because you're seeing the running backs, wide receivers

37
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 3: throwing guys into space. Jerry Judy wants to play football again.

38
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 3: Seems happy on the sidelines that there's at least a

39
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 3: chance that he can go make a play. We know

40
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 3: he's got a big arm, but a lot of this

41
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,519
Speaker 3: has been the all right Neil, what was it the

42
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 3: bad news Bears, y'all all gotta move back. Look out,

43
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,080
Speaker 3: I'm gonna hit this one a long way sucker. And

44
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,239
Speaker 3: then the guy lays down a bunt. That kind of

45
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 3: thing with Shdor Sanders, you got defenses have to play

46
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 3: it honestly because he does have the big arm, and

47
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 3: then you get the underneath and guy's taking full advantage

48
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,639
Speaker 3: with the yard after catch. So yeah, he's intriguing down

49
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:36,959
Speaker 3: the stretch. Name the starter for the rest of the season.

50
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 3: Like I said Week fifteen against Chicago, I'd be curious

51
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 3: to see what you run him up against in terms

52
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 3: of your lineup decisions. But he's a high end two

53
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 3: for me for sure.

54
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 2: He I went up against him in a league and

55
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 2: luckily I was able to win. But nobody cares about that,

56
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 2: but it will do I care. I don't even know

57
00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:59,480
Speaker 2: why I included. They should have just said I went

58
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 2: up against to be in the league and it was

59
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 2: not fun playing against them, and in a game like

60
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:08,600
Speaker 2: the Titans where we weren't expecting a lot from their defense.

61
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:10,639
Speaker 2: You know, I look at these next couple of games,

62
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 2: we saw that he was kind of overmatched against an

63
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:20,119
Speaker 2: undermanned forty nine Ers team. But you know, you mentioned,

64
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 2: you know what we've got ahead for the Cleveland Browns.

65
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 2: You also have matchups with the Bills and the Steelers

66
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 2: coming up, and on the marquee it looks great, but

67
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 2: we know Buffalo's defense isn't that great, so there could

68
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 2: be an opportunity there, and those teams are also likely

69
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 2: to score against the Browns defense that has been tough

70
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 2: up until this game against Tennessee. So I just even

71
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 2: think like the way that the games are going to

72
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 2: play out for the Browns are advantageous Foreshait or Sanders,

73
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 2: as long as he can stay healthy. They may be down,

74
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 2: they may need to score points. And when you can

75
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:57,400
Speaker 2: go up against these defenses that maybe aren't lockdown, lockdown

76
00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 2: defenses like a Houston Texans defense, and then you've got

77
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 2: an opportunity to make some fantasy points. Yeah. I really

78
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 2: like him going down the stretch. If you're let's say

79
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 2: you lost Daniel Jones, you know you're relying on him, Like, man,

80
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 2: what a guy to be able to pick up down

81
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 2: the stretch.

82
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think there's just that that element of he's

83
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 3: they're going to make the most because they got to

84
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 3: audition him to see what he can do, right, and

85
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:24,039
Speaker 3: that's not handing the ball off the Quinchawn Judkins or

86
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 3: in sort of other running backs in the backfield. No,

87
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 3: it's the all right, how does he read a defense?

88
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:32,479
Speaker 3: How does he read and pick up rushes and so,

89
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 3: and he's not shy about putting the ball up. Yeah, right,

90
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:37,800
Speaker 3: and that's one of the things we're not doing. The

91
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 3: checkdown thing right. By way of contrast, the Dylan Gabriel

92
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 3: five point eight yards or intended air yards per attempt

93
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 3: that is not shedor Sanders. We're on the other side

94
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 3: of that and the checkdowns and taking what the defense

95
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 3: give him. He's getting better at reading that with more experience.

96
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 3: That can only get better. Again, we'll see what Allen

97
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:03,679
Speaker 3: and the the Bears defensive constructs can do. The Bills

98
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 3: give up a lot of yards just like Chicago. Bills

99
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 3: better in terms of points allowed per game. But to

100
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 3: say the point remains, they're not the Bills that you remember,

101
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,919
Speaker 3: and the Steelers we've seen the on again, off again

102
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 3: pass rush and aptitude in the secondary. So yeah, there's

103
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:26,559
Speaker 3: some certainly some games on this slate here that could

104
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,479
Speaker 3: be big time spots. For Shador Sanders to be a

105
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,839
Speaker 3: different difference maker. That makes me my head hurt a little.

106
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,720
Speaker 2: Only one more point about him as well. So you

107
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 2: had three carries for twenty nine yards in the game

108
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 2: against the Titans, and to me, that tells me that

109
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 2: he's because he's not a runner, right, and you don't

110
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 2: want to just bail out on your first or second read.

111
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 2: To see him be able to run the football and

112
00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 2: have those plays where he could be dangerous. You don't

113
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,279
Speaker 2: have to do it every time. You just have to

114
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 2: show a defense that you're able to do it. And

115
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 2: that's what he did. So now there's gonna have to

116
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,600
Speaker 2: be They're gonna have to at least respond to it

117
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,360
Speaker 2: in some case. And because he had success with it

118
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 2: and was able to get into the end zone on

119
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 2: a run himself this past weekend, I think that there's

120
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 2: more opportunities. You're not gonna get six for fifty from him,

121
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,280
Speaker 2: but what it does is it keeps the defense more

122
00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,359
Speaker 2: honest and you may get three for twenty nine again.

123
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 2: So yeah, I'm all for it.

124
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 3: On the year, the Bears have given up the second

125
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:34,839
Speaker 3: most touchdown passes, second only to the Cowboys. Cowboys twenty

126
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 3: nine Bears twenty seven perception and reality, right, but you

127
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:45,599
Speaker 3: have the eighteen takeaways eighteen interceptions that will help fuel

128
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:46,279
Speaker 3: that narrative.

129
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 2: Just to weep bit more, do you think that he

130
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 2: I think that what he did in week fourteen put

131
00:06:55,760 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 2: him in the conversation where all right now he legit

132
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 2: intimately has a chance at the starting job. I did

133
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 2: not think that going into this past weekend, especially with

134
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 2: the Deshaun Watson conversation that's popped up, which, by the way,

135
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 2: I had a conversation with Kerry Rhoades leading up to

136
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,920
Speaker 2: that a little over a week ago just about the

137
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 2: Deshaun Watson situation that they they've gone in Cleveland, and

138
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 2: now it's become more of a conversation with the opening

139
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 2: of the practice window. But it looked like the Browns

140
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 2: weren't going to have an option in twenty twenty six

141
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 2: other than Shador. But now Deshaun Watson is definitely going

142
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 2: to be an option. But because of Chador's play, now

143
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 2: I think it's a competition, So I give him credit.

144
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 2: I think he's got an opportunity to actually win the

145
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 2: job here in these last four weeks. Heading into next season,

146
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 2: it seems like a tall task just a couple of

147
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 2: weeks ago. But you put performances like what you did

148
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 2: against the Titans together against these teams, they'd have every

149
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 2: reason to start him in twenty twenty six.

150
00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,800
Speaker 3: At least worth a look. See curiosity whether Kevin Stefanski's

151
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 3: still there or finds his way out the exit again.

152
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:05,360
Speaker 3: I don't know how much is truth versus rumor versus

153
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:09,120
Speaker 3: sour grapes one way or another as related to the

154
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 3: reports about their relationship. H Man, that's one like all

155
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 3: of these, right, how much do the Eagles people really

156
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 3: hate each other? We could do this locker room to

157
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 3: locker room right, certainly in Cleveland, depending on who you believe.

158
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 3: The second the two point conversion thing is still just

159
00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 3: odd as hell. But otherwise, you know, Stefanski still has

160
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 3: a job to do. All those players still have a

161
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,560
Speaker 3: job to do. So why wouldn't anybody try their best

162
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 3: nobody sabotaging things to try to tank it down. So yeah,

163
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 3: and when was the last time Deshaun Watson was good?

164
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 3: You know, the year before he sat out.

165
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:51,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been a long time, a long long time.

166
00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 3: I think Philip Rivers was still active in the league,

167
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 3: the last after Shaun Watson was.

168
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 2: You know, the two point conversion thing. And I have

169
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 2: another about Stefanski the two point conversion thing. The one

170
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,080
Speaker 2: thing that I'll say because I thought this as it

171
00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 2: was happening. They went for two on the possession prior.

172
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:14,440
Speaker 2: And I know Stefanski may or some may think that

173
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 2: he's an offensive genius. He doesn't have fifty plays on

174
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 2: a two point conversion, like you've got five or six

175
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,680
Speaker 2: that you want to run. And my thinking is is

176
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 2: this was their number one. If we need the two,

177
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 2: let's get it. This is the play that we're going

178
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 2: to run. And I think that the first one that

179
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:36,960
Speaker 2: they ran where Shador was on the field like he

180
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 2: was on the field for it, and in fact, there

181
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 2: was a turnover of some type in Tennessee almost ran

182
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 2: it back. I can't remember if it was a fumble

183
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,200
Speaker 2: or an interception, but Shador was on the field for

184
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:51,040
Speaker 2: the first two point conversion to make it thirty one

185
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:53,679
Speaker 2: twenty three. And then when they were going for the conversion,

186
00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 2: they didn't get it, so it was still an eight

187
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 2: point game. But so then the second time around, when

188
00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,559
Speaker 2: you really need did that, like because you're gonna lose

189
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 2: the game if you don't get it. That's why I

190
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 2: thought they went down the trickery. Well, we had seen

191
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:11,680
Speaker 2: Judkins in the Wildcat before. Make Tennessee think that you're

192
00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:13,559
Speaker 2: just gonna run them in because they have had success

193
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,479
Speaker 2: from that formation. I don't think it was an indictment

194
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 2: on Sanders. I just think that that was Kevin Stefanski's

195
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 2: one a play and Judkins forgot to pitch the ball.

196
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:27,079
Speaker 3: I think that's a good theory. I think that works.

197
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:28,040
Speaker 3: I kind of like that.

198
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,760
Speaker 2: It's a lot on the two point conversion.

199
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:34,080
Speaker 3: Well, but I mean, look, you got Tennessee a win. Yeah,

200
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:37,160
Speaker 3: So I mean like the and it ruined a lot.

201
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 3: I mean picks and all these big contests where you

202
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 3: just saw the that that flow all the way through

203
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:46,840
Speaker 3: and as you you chronicled in our in our week

204
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,680
Speaker 3: in the last podcast right of how predictions and and

205
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 3: just what a strange week it was for some of

206
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:59,559
Speaker 3: the teams that seemed to be the consensus, just showing

207
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 3: again that the NFL in twenty twenty five is just

208
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 3: messed up.

209
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'll say this, Stefanski, there could be jobs

210
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:07,959
Speaker 2: open in the NFL that he would want to go

211
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 2: to if they don't if there isn't a match in Cleveland,

212
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 2: So maybe better if he leaves, you know, there could

213
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 2: be an opportunity for him to get, as crazy as

214
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,600
Speaker 2: it is, another head coaching job. I don't. I don't

215
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 2: know why people love him as much as they do,

216
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:24,640
Speaker 2: but for some reason they do, and there could be

217
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:25,719
Speaker 2: an opportunity for him.

218
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 3: What do you think of the should do or stuff?

219
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 3: He and you want to add anything?

220
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I just listening to what Dan was

221
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 4: saying there about the two point conversion call. I think

222
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,160
Speaker 4: I'm probably with you, Dan. I don't want to sit

223
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,160
Speaker 4: here and go down some conspiracy theory. Well, but I

224
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 4: but I would say that there's something to it in

225
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 4: the sense that something to the conspiracy stuff in the

226
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 4: sense that like if say Stefanski has a few plays

227
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 4: for a two point conversion and I gotta have it

228
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,760
Speaker 4: scenario like that that he absolutely loves, like you said,

229
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,199
Speaker 4: and he has a one A say, he just has

230
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,840
Speaker 4: two plays that he absolutely loves, and to him, they're

231
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 4: pretty much like either one it's a one hundred, you know,

232
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 4: ninety percent chance we get it in his mind, and

233
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 4: one involves the quarterback throwing and one involves this trick

234
00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:14,559
Speaker 4: play where it's out of the wildcat. I think subconsciously

235
00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 4: part of him. If there is some sort of anti

236
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,320
Speaker 4: Schadur vendetta in his mind, it would make sense that

237
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 4: he would opt for the play that, if everything else

238
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,400
Speaker 4: is held equal in his mind, he opts for the

239
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 4: one that doesn't include Shoudur.

240
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 2: Sure very well could be. Yeah, that's I'll tell you what.

241
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:32,319
Speaker 2: Though he does not come out looking good.

242
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:33,439
Speaker 3: No, he doesn't at all.

243
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I mean just every game that Shadur comes

244
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:39,199
Speaker 4: out and plays well, and obviously this is the first

245
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 4: game he's looked this good, Like this was obviously three

246
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:44,920
Speaker 4: hundred plus yards passing four touchdowns like this just makes

247
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 4: you wonder, like what took so long?

248
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:46,720
Speaker 2: You know?

249
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:49,440
Speaker 4: And also like what's is? Do they have issues with

250
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 4: their scouting department? Obviously all these other teams passed on

251
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 4: him too, But you genuinely took Dylan Gabriel two rounds

252
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 4: ahead of Shaduur Sanders, who looks like head and shoulders

253
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 4: better than he does, the guy that you scouted and

254
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 4: deemed him two rounds better. I don't know, Maybe I'm

255
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 4: just rambling at this point, but there's so many different.

256
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 2: Nope, you're right, that's the miss. That is the miss.

257
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:10,600
Speaker 2: Gabriel is the mess.

258
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 3: But I think some of it was all Right, You've

259
00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 3: got Dylan Gabriel and you know what he is, and

260
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 3: you think that with your defense and an adequate run game,

261
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 3: we don't need dynamics, we just need consistency. And then

262
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 3: you realize that he can't push the ball down the

263
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 3: field at all. Right, and your defense, while great is

264
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 3: living on the field for forty minutes a game, there's

265
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 3: only you know, Miles Garrett, as good as he is.

266
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,960
Speaker 3: I mean, he's one man. So you know, the one

267
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 3: thing with Shador is maybe higher ceiling, but probably more

268
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 3: margins for error that you have to deal with. And

269
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,959
Speaker 3: again it goes back to practice and film sessions or whatever.

270
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:57,319
Speaker 3: I'm it's all theory theory, right, unless they suddenly give

271
00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 3: us a documentary that chronicles all of those moments of yeah,

272
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 3: here's Shador in the film room. Look at he's you know,

273
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:08,680
Speaker 3: he's a PhD candidate and he's diagramming everything well, and

274
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 3: Stefanski never put him on the field. Okay, well, maybe

275
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,240
Speaker 3: maybe that's not the way, Like it's what is it?

276
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:18,480
Speaker 3: Practice and film guy versus put the ball on the

277
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 3: field and let's go play guy, right.

278
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,800
Speaker 4: And then Gabriel just seems like in general just like

279
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 4: a not no shade to Shador, but Gabriel seems like

280
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:28,800
Speaker 4: a kid who on the surface seems like a little

281
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 4: more likable of a guy, where Shadur is way more me,

282
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 4: me and stuff. And I just wonder if that has

283
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 4: been rubbing Stefanski the wrong way and he subconsciously wants

284
00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 4: Gabriel to succeed over Shador.

285
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 3: He probably does.

286
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 2: That's so crazy, No, Dylan, Gabriel is going to be

287
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,800
Speaker 2: twenty five at the end of the month, so like,

288
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 2: so there's already like a like a maturity level because

289
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 2: he's he was in college for twenty four years.

290
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:55,120
Speaker 3: He was wait, he was around a long long time.

291
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:58,440
Speaker 2: He was he was so like so there's that portion

292
00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 2: of it as well. But it also he was way overdrafted,

293
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 2: Like if you just watched them either be at Oregon

294
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:08,600
Speaker 2: or Oklahoma. I mean, you know, in those times, there

295
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 2: was no way that he was a third round pick.

296
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 2: So they missed on that. People miss on third round picks.

297
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 2: They do. I don't know if he'll be in Cleveland

298
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,040
Speaker 2: next year, but should or will be. It's just a

299
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 2: question of will he be starting or not. We shall see.

300
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 2: All right, We're gonna take a time out wrap things

301
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 2: up here on our midweek episode of I Want Your Flex.

302
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:29,240
Speaker 2: He's Mike Carmen, that's he, and Roddy I'm Dan Bayer.

303
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:34,360
Speaker 2: It's all here and I Want Your Flex. All right,

304
00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 2: We're gonna get you set for Thursday Night Football in

305
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:38,400
Speaker 2: a little bit, but I do want to talk about

306
00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 2: Sunday slate. Guys. It's crazy to me in this era

307
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 2: of flex scheduling when you look at the early slate

308
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:49,320
Speaker 2: of games on Sunday, usually it's you know, there's a

309
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 2: lot to be desired, a lot left to be desired.

310
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 2: I should say, We've got Chargers, Chiefs, Bill's, Patriots, and

311
00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 2: Ravens Bengals all in the early window. That is really

312
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 2: really good for some huge, huge games, all on CBS.

313
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 2: So the third team on CBS is going to be

314
00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 2: had a great game. You don't see this too often

315
00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 2: in a slate, especially this late in the season. Usually

316
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,160
Speaker 2: games are flexed in certain spots, but there were some

317
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:20,040
Speaker 2: limitations because of the Bills and Patriots and the Chargers

318
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 2: and Chiefs and even the Ravens and Bengals. You can't

319
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 2: flex those because those were already primetime games. But they're

320
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:28,080
Speaker 2: all there at one o'clock Eastern time on Sunday.

321
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 3: Talking about getting up and getting after it. Right, here's

322
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 3: your mimosa, here's your omelet, and some top notch football

323
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,240
Speaker 3: getting after it to get a Sunday and Week fifteen

324
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 3: playoff week in the fantasy realm for a lot of folks,

325
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:45,400
Speaker 3: or final throws for others. But yeah, overall, we've got

326
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 3: some doozies this week in both windows. I don't know

327
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 3: how much when we talk about, you know, Sunday night

328
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 3: football not exactly thrilling, but hey, JJ McCarthy put up

329
00:16:56,360 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 3: thirty one on a bad Washington team, and then Miami

330
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,840
Speaker 3: Pittsburgh suddenly has value in a Monday night game. Nothing

331
00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:07,680
Speaker 3: else story lines from both right, Miami not quite dead yet,

332
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:12,960
Speaker 3: running through Devon Han quite a bit and making plays

333
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 3: that way, and defense has played better. Pittsburgh got back

334
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:21,400
Speaker 3: over the five hundred line with that win over the Ravens.

335
00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,439
Speaker 3: So yeah, I mean, all the way through the weekend,

336
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 3: we've got some doozies, and then eventually we'll start adding

337
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:27,080
Speaker 3: those Saturday games in.

338
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's gonna be fun coming up in the next

339
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:33,399
Speaker 2: couple of weeks. Yeah. I like Dolphin Steelers. I normally wouldn't,

340
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:37,639
Speaker 2: but these two versions of them I am intrigued about

341
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,680
Speaker 2: for sure. And even the late window, the late windows

342
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:43,879
Speaker 2: Green Bay and Denver. Yeah, playing in a game so

343
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:46,960
Speaker 2: in the Mile High City Lions and Rams.

344
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:51,480
Speaker 3: Lions and Rams is fifty five and a half. Wow,

345
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 3: fifty five and a half park cartemy wants to go

346
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:56,359
Speaker 3: to that game?

347
00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 2: Yeah right, I mean it's right in the backyard. Mike,

348
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 2: over it out.

349
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,440
Speaker 3: I'll have to see what the Let's take a look

350
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 3: at the old ticketing, shall we, because there were a

351
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:09,120
Speaker 3: couple of games this last week. We talked about the Cleveland,

352
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:11,440
Speaker 3: Tennessee game, but there were several others that were under

353
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,920
Speaker 3: thirty bucks for get in which you know, if you're

354
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,359
Speaker 3: just looking, I'm in look city to city, it's going

355
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 3: to do the parking and availability Los Angeles. You might

356
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 3: have a cheap ticket, but you're still gonna pay eighty

357
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 3: bucks to park, or you're gonna have to uber and

358
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 3: then walk a mile and a half or two, which

359
00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:30,960
Speaker 3: is fine because it's still seventy degrees, so you're fine.

360
00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:33,560
Speaker 3: But in a lot of other places not so much.

361
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:37,639
Speaker 3: Let's see Bears Cleveland is two hundred, you got what

362
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:41,240
Speaker 3: was it? Let's see the Rams one hundred and fifty three?

363
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:44,240
Speaker 3: Bucks is get in. I don't think I care about

364
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 3: either team that much. Jacksonville sixty one against the Jets,

365
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:54,000
Speaker 3: Houston seventy one against Arizona thirty nine bucks. If you

366
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,240
Speaker 3: want to go to Jerry's World to watch the Vikings.

367
00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 2: It would have been a really great late window if

368
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,240
Speaker 2: there wasn't a Daniel Jones injury. Colts and Seahawks is

369
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,160
Speaker 2: another game. But now when you don't even know who's

370
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:08,400
Speaker 2: going to start a quarterback for the Colts, it's kind

371
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:15,240
Speaker 2: of tough. But yeah, thirteen and a half, now, yeah,

372
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 2: it's I mean, it's gonna be tough on Riley Leonard

373
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:21,040
Speaker 2: if he's there, and you need you need a veteran

374
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 2: to be able to deal with what Seattle is going

375
00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 2: to give you, And I just don't know if Philip

376
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 2: Rivers is going to want to deal with that. If

377
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,600
Speaker 2: you were to come out, come out of retirement, go.

378
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 3: And claim Bailey Zappi or practice, yeah, you may have

379
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,080
Speaker 3: to come out here and you be the pin cushion

380
00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:39,120
Speaker 3: for the Seattle deal.

381
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:43,240
Speaker 2: It could be rough sledding for the for the Colts

382
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 2: in that.

383
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 4: One, Chris Ball to put some pads on. Yeah exactly, this, yeah,

384
00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:48,880
Speaker 4: you do.

385
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:50,199
Speaker 2: It, you.

386
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 3: Get us out.

387
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:58,879
Speaker 2: Well, you know, and it's crazy that it's it's not

388
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,639
Speaker 2: crazy to say. But again, Anthony Richardson was supposed to

389
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,639
Speaker 2: be the backup. Yeah, he has that freak injury. And

390
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 2: so now the Colts are in this situation. Where were

391
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:11,439
Speaker 2: there two pregame injuries in that game for the Colts

392
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:13,200
Speaker 2: as well? I think that there was another one.

393
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:14,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, I had a lot of stuff going on at

394
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 4: the same one that Charvarius Ward got hit.

395
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:20,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that was yes, so weird, Yeah, because I

396
00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 2: was like, yeah, I saw him get hit and so like, no,

397
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 2: that wasn't how Anthony Richardson got hurt. He got hurt

398
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 2: with a like a band exercise.

399
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,680
Speaker 3: Oh well, I forgot the one other value play of

400
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:32,800
Speaker 3: the week. If you want to go see Carolina the

401
00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 3: upstart Carolina Panthers at New Orleans and Tyler Shuck thirteen dollars.

402
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:38,920
Speaker 2: Oh, there you go.

403
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:42,040
Speaker 3: That's actually pretty good value. I mean, Carolina's not bad

404
00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 3: and Shuck has been entertaining, and it could sound like

405
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:47,680
Speaker 3: you're cursing the whole day.

406
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:52,120
Speaker 2: Sure, yeah, why not check it out. It's the it's

407
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:54,040
Speaker 2: the lowest ticket that we've got to think on the

408
00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:55,480
Speaker 2: slate that's Week fifteen.

409
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:57,520
Speaker 3: But it's just that weird part of the schedule. Now

410
00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 3: we've got some really good heavyweight matchup here. We talked

411
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:06,200
Speaker 3: about the sandwich situation, right, this is the middle game

412
00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:09,400
Speaker 3: before some of these teams meet up for a second time,

413
00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 3: and we'll have some of that in the final couple

414
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:16,040
Speaker 3: of weeks as well. So for fantasy purposes, it's that

415
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,919
Speaker 3: ebb and flow of trying to find the sweet spot

416
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:23,639
Speaker 3: on the schedule. You got some lesser, lesser opponents, but

417
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:26,119
Speaker 3: I don't think anybody's got a schedule where we just

418
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,439
Speaker 3: really have a lot of Ronco said it and forget it. So,

419
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,120
Speaker 3: you know, when you're talking about w R two's and stuff,

420
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:33,639
Speaker 3: I think we're gonna be doing a lot more of

421
00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:38,399
Speaker 3: those breakdowns come Friday rather than the old standbys that

422
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:41,719
Speaker 3: we've gone and been reliable with through the season.

423
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,040
Speaker 2: Well, the Thursday Night of Fair is an NFC cells

424
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:47,199
Speaker 2: showing on It's the other two teams outside of the

425
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:51,040
Speaker 2: Saints and Panthers. It is the Buccaneers and Falcons playing

426
00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:55,120
Speaker 2: in Tampa. Yeah, Mike, health concerns on the Falcons side

427
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,560
Speaker 2: of things. Buccaneers could be getting healthy. Yer, what do

428
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 2: you think we got for Thursday night?

429
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:04,320
Speaker 3: Well, I mentioned Kirk Cousins on the waiver wire pickups again,

430
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:08,960
Speaker 3: more a speculative play, maybe your dollar fantasy league if

431
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 3: you're playing in those kind of entries. But Tampa Bay's

432
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 3: secondary has been bad. We look at the possibility Drake

433
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:19,240
Speaker 3: London was listed at least at the time of the recording,

434
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 3: is day to day, so you're wishing and hoping Bejeon

435
00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:25,400
Speaker 3: Robinson's usually good for a few receptions out of the backfield,

436
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:27,639
Speaker 3: a little bit of pits, so you know, you do

437
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,240
Speaker 3: have opportunities now as Kirk Cousins look anything like the

438
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:34,960
Speaker 3: Kirk Cousins that we've seen pre injury. No is still

439
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 3: on the comeback. But again we're trying to find diamonds

440
00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 3: in the rough. Maybe a little bit. If you lost

441
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:44,239
Speaker 3: Daniel Jones in super flex leagues, two QB leagues, some

442
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 3: of those becoming more normalized than the standard leagues that

443
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 3: the three of us, certainly you and I, Dan had

444
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,880
Speaker 3: been playing for years, right, more permutations to a lot

445
00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 3: of this stuff.

446
00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:58,800
Speaker 2: Most some guys in my longtime league would look at

447
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,120
Speaker 2: me like, I'm an alien. Why do you have five

448
00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 2: ears on your head? Saying something like that. They just

449
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 2: love the old school. Yet we got a couple of

450
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,000
Speaker 2: owners who like, just want to throw a cass into

451
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 2: the wind and throw every curveball you can. But yeah,

452
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 2: it just hasn't happened yet.

453
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:16,439
Speaker 3: Start adding all sorts of random scoring categories. Yes, and

454
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,680
Speaker 3: then in week two going, hey, how do we use

455
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:22,439
Speaker 3: the commissioner's tool to remove some of these categories. We

456
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,720
Speaker 3: didn't realize it would be that bad. I remember when

457
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 3: IDPs became a thing and people realize that now linebackers

458
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:33,040
Speaker 3: were scoring eighty points. Yeah, I think we overweighted tackles.

459
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 3: Yeah exactly. You watched Irlacker or Array Lewis play at home,

460
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,959
Speaker 3: or Luke Keickley and suddenly realized they were they were

461
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,399
Speaker 3: king of the mountain just by being near a pile.

462
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 2: Oh great, stuffy overalls.

463
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:51,080
Speaker 3: Well pretty much right. It was quarterbacks and linebackers if

464
00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:55,440
Speaker 3: you looked at those settings. But Vijan Bucky Irving once again,

465
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:57,960
Speaker 3: you know he's back in the good graces, so he

466
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,280
Speaker 3: comes in. He's a number five for me in the

467
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 3: early week review. As we get into it at the

468
00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:08,520
Speaker 3: running back position for the wide outs again hoping that

469
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:12,399
Speaker 3: Drake London is available to you to find a little

470
00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 3: bit of love. A little bit down. You know, we

471
00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:17,000
Speaker 3: talked about a book a up being able to make

472
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,239
Speaker 3: a play this last week when they needed him to,

473
00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 3: and for fantasy purposes, it's been down since week five,

474
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:26,680
Speaker 3: week six, so he's actually down to a high end

475
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:30,840
Speaker 3: three at this point. God went back into still wishing, wanting,

476
00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:34,879
Speaker 3: hoping that the rest of that receiving corps comes back in.

477
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:38,320
Speaker 3: And for the tight end position, as we look at

478
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,440
Speaker 3: it now, Kyle Pitts is a back end top ten

479
00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:44,480
Speaker 3: for Tampa. You know, this becomes if you have to

480
00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:48,240
Speaker 3: play a tight end, maybe it and gets a look,

481
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,320
Speaker 3: but even then that becomes an active desperation.

482
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 2: I know that this is what the NFL likes to do.

483
00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,119
Speaker 2: It's just really difficult for me to get excited for

484
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 2: NFC South game. No, I get it like it is, yeah,

485
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 2: especially like you know the Falcons and the tough times

486
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,960
Speaker 2: and gosh, I hope they don't waste Jean Robinson's career.

487
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:10,600
Speaker 2: But yeah, there's now if the Buccaneers are wearing the creamsicicles,

488
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 2: do we.

489
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:12,560
Speaker 3: At least get some of that? Dan? Do we have

490
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:13,600
Speaker 3: any of that coming in?

491
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,640
Speaker 2: You know what I'm gonna I'm gonna have to check

492
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 2: at some point. I don't know if there's a Buccaneers

493
00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 2: schedule maker. Sometimes they wait for these, you know, throughout

494
00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:25,480
Speaker 2: the week, but uh, you know where they'll not unveil

495
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:28,920
Speaker 2: but just announce, or they'll change their their Twitter photo

496
00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 2: and it'll be like, oh, it's the throwbacks, and then

497
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 2: you know it's throwback weeks. So I'm gonna go, I'm

498
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:35,680
Speaker 2: going to go to the Buccaneers here on X if

499
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,359
Speaker 2: my computer can end up bringing it up. But that

500
00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:40,240
Speaker 2: would be one way to spice it up if it

501
00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:42,720
Speaker 2: was the throwbacks. And if the Falcons would just where

502
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:46,679
Speaker 2: their Steve Bartkowski reds right with the grade, not the

503
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:49,720
Speaker 2: nineteen sixty eight ones, but the nineteen eighty five ones,

504
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:51,560
Speaker 2: that would be I've got great for me.

505
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 4: I've got the Bucks here. Their Twitter still looks normal,

506
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:57,040
Speaker 4: their ax still looks like the normal one button. Okay,

507
00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:59,760
Speaker 4: I mean it's still still you know, might not about.

508
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 3: Baby, but I found Gridiron Hyphenuniforms dot com has the

509
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 3: mock ups that we got the Bartkowski and the Cream skulls.

510
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:10,879
Speaker 2: That would be nice. I would take that for you.

511
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:14,159
Speaker 3: I don't know if that's final, but it's a it's

512
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:18,159
Speaker 3: a pretty cool looking h It's a pretty cool looking

513
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:22,560
Speaker 3: website because it's got the helmets and the back view

514
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 3: for both squads listed all the way through.

515
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 2: It would be magnificent just to see old Bucko Bruce

516
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,520
Speaker 2: on the field as many times as we can.

517
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:34,960
Speaker 3: Or could we make a SpongeBob game or something. I

518
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:36,159
Speaker 3: don't know, give me something.

519
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:41,359
Speaker 2: Oh well, hey good in more good news, no more buys.

520
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 2: So everybody's playing this week? Yes, it's great to have
