Speaker 2: and this is the Drive on Steelers Nation Radio and

6
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 2: Matt's time for the Fantasy Football Focus and our lineup.

7
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 2: By this week, one hundred and thirty six point seven

8
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:35,760
Speaker 2: to six points in DFS. Not a bad week considering,

9
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:37,600
Speaker 2: you know, some of what we had in there. We

10
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 2: had justin Herbert at quarterback. He had twenty five point

11
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 2: two points.

12
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:42,760
Speaker 3: Good.

13
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 2: Great, Yeah, three hundred yards passing, a couple of passing touchdowns.

14
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:49,240
Speaker 2: You'll take that. Vermandre Stevenson.

15
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:50,880
Speaker 3: I'm a fan man.

16
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:56,319
Speaker 2: But fifty rushing yards three catches for was it? Ten

17
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 2: yards in a touchdown? He got fifteen points.

18
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 3: Watching the game, I thought he would have scored better

19
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 3: than that, you know, And in the end it was like, oh,

20
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:05,399
Speaker 3: he looks good running, he catches the.

21
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 2: Touchdown was late. Yeah, yeah, they were trailing the whole time.

22
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:10,560
Speaker 3: He's all they got to.

23
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 2: Josh Kelly thirty nine rushing yards. That was it. Now

24
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 2: I knew that was a tough matchup. Against the Titans.

25
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:20,279
Speaker 3: A couple of catches would have been nice.

26
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,040
Speaker 2: Would have been nice, maybe fall into the ends, and

27
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 2: that's what you were hoping for volume there.

28
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:26,320
Speaker 3: And I'm sure he was chalky because he was super

29
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 3: cheap on Monday.

30
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, it turns out we should have gone with Zach

31
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 2: Moss in that spot instead.

32
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,839
Speaker 3: Yeah. That guy is better for fantasy than the real world.

33
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 3: He doesn't leave the field for the Colts. No, that's great,

34
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 3: super Yeah. And if Richardson miss times, it'll spike him too.

35
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 2: We had Chris Alave in the lineup. He had six

36
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 2: catches for eighty six yards last night. Is yeah, not

37
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 2: a bad game.

38
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 3: Yeah.

39
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 2: By the way, Kelly's ownership was at thirty nine point

40
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 2: four percent high, right, that's high. Anything over twenty is

41
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 2: really yeah, just starting to push it. We had Keenan

42
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 2: Allen stacked with Justin Herbert. That's a nice way to

43
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,760
Speaker 2: go with that. He had thirty four point one.

44
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 3: Points, so we got one touchdown er two.

45
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,720
Speaker 2: He had two yeah, eight eight for one eleven and

46
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 2: two touchdowns. That's a nice day, that really is. We

47
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 2: had Say Flowers in the lineup. He had four receptions

48
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:16,799
Speaker 2: for sixty two yards and six rushing yards, so ten

49
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 2: ten point eight points. Pat Frearmouth was our tight end.

50
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,640
Speaker 2: He had one catch for two yards and his only

51
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 2: target earlier Christian Kirk in the flex. That really worked out.

52
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 3: He was cheap.

53
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was only owned in six point one because

54
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 2: remember he didn't catch a pass the previous week. Eleven

55
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 2: catches for one hundred and ten yards twenty four point

56
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 2: nine six points, only six point one percent ownership, so

57
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 2: that worked out really well.

58
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 3: Jags didn't do a lot, but he got the he.

59
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 2: Was the guy that he got. He caught everything, like

60
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:50,959
Speaker 2: everything that they had in their passing game went through him.

61
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 2: Unfortunately for US Ridley owners. He had two for thirty two,

62
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 2: like nine targets, like nine targets.

63
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 3: Nine targets almost out of the yeah, not almost.

64
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:06,959
Speaker 2: And then the Saints defense last night, four sacks, fumble recovery,

65
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,359
Speaker 2: fourteen to twenty points allowed. They were running ten point

66
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 2: seven percent. We had seven points out of them. So

67
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:12,799
Speaker 2: we finished in the money.

68
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:14,799
Speaker 3: Kind of surprise, we finishing the money. I mean, you

69
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 3: go player by player had some yeah, yeah, friar Muth

70
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 3: was a stinker, Kelly was a stinker. Neither one was

71
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 3: super expensive.

72
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:23,399
Speaker 2: The team that won it this week.

73
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 3: Had Gino Smith, he played eight, came back strong.

74
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 2: But Jean Robinson, Yeah, Rashad White, that's a gutsy call.

75
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:32,799
Speaker 3: He must had a lot of catches.

76
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 2: He had five receptions for thirty yards and seventy three

77
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 2: rushing yards in a touchdown.

78
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 3: Okay, so good for him. Bucks were playing Okay.

79
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 2: A mon Ross, Saint Brown t Higgins. Higgins rebounded Nico Collins.

80
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 2: If you listen to our Nico Collins love in the summertime,

81
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 2: we were a year early last year. But now now

82
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 2: that it's it's coming to fruition.

83
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 3: Now, yeah, all those best balls that I did in

84
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 3: this summer, I have Nico super high.

85
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:03,840
Speaker 2: Hunter Henry was a tight end. Treylan Burks he had

86
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 2: three for seventy six. He only had point nine percent ownership.

87
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 2: And then the Buccaneers defense against Chicago, they had to

88
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 2: They scored a touchdown, They had six sacks, two interceptions.

89
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 3: Chicago's definitely a stream against defense.

90
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's one that you got to look at every

91
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:19,719
Speaker 2: week as well.

92
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 3: They six sacks, he said, yeah, yeah, Fields takes a lot.

93
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 2: He takes a lot of sacks.

94
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 3: Officially, worried about justin Fields.

95
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 2: Looking at this week's top performers. A bunch of three

96
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 2: hundred yard passers this week. In fact, there were ten,

97
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 2: and Sam Howe at eleven just missed with two ninety nine.

98
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 2: You had CJ. Stroud, Kirk Cousins, Gino Smith, Jared Goff,

99
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones, Baker Mayfield, Russell Wilson, Matthew Stafford. You finally

100
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,600
Speaker 2: get to three hundred and five yards at number nine.

101
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,040
Speaker 3: Patrick Mahomes, I would say none of those top eight

102
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 3: were picked in like the top.

103
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,280
Speaker 2: Close and then Justin Herbert came in at three zero

104
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 2: five and two touchdowns.

105
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 3: And even like the Hurts and and Allen's that were

106
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 3: super high picks fields, they're.

107
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 2: Not rushing for They're not running as much yet, right.

108
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,840
Speaker 3: I Mean, we had a conversation on my podcast today

109
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 3: about we're not by any means saying the rushing quarterbacks

110
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 3: dead only lasted two years, but the tours of the world.

111
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 2: Well, once you start getting paid, though, yeah, it does

112
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 2: start to kind of go away a little bit.

113
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 3: The Cousins and these guys are they're the ones doing

114
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:22,440
Speaker 3: well this year.

115
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's crazy.

116
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 3: The pocket passers.

117
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 2: The pocket passers in terms of rushing we had seven

118
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:34,480
Speaker 2: one hundred yard rushing games. DeAndre Swift one hundred and

119
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:38,720
Speaker 2: seventy five yards on twenty eight carries, but Jean Robinson

120
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,360
Speaker 2: nineteen for one to twenty four didn't score though.

121
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 3: That was a story in my fantasy week. I had

122
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:45,840
Speaker 3: a lot of guys did well. I had like no touchdowns.

123
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 3: It's a fluky thing. And Bijeon's guy own a lot.

124
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,479
Speaker 2: Uh, James Cook seventeen for one to twenty three.

125
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 3: They were my running back, but didn't score exactly. Great

126
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 3: great Greeks, but just not in the end zone.

127
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 2: And that's gonna be the issue with him. It's actually

128
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 2: it might be the issue with both of those guys

129
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 2: because Tyler Algier is still a real Yeah.

130
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:08,240
Speaker 3: Vijon got more goal line touches this time, yeah, or

131
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:09,840
Speaker 3: you're more short yarded stuff.

132
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 2: But James Coush couldn't get vulted like crazy. Yeah, Raheem Moster.

133
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:18,480
Speaker 2: It's against the New England Patriots. Eighteen for one to

134
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 2: twenty one and two touchdowns.

135
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, got free and they ran the ball well.

136
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 2: Christian McCaffrey doing Christian McCaffrey things. Twenty for one to

137
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 2: sixteen and a touchdown.

138
00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,880
Speaker 3: He's playing an unbelievably high percentage of snaps.

139
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, he had a fifty one yard run in there too,

140
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 2: so he ground out some of that other stuff. Jerome Ford,

141
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 2: we mentioned that one sixteen for one o six but

142
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 2: didn't score. He got tackled at the one.

143
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, then they run started him. Yeah, maybe a DFS

144
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 3: lineup did.

145
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 2: Are you like Pierre Strong? Is he going to be

146
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 2: the touchdown vulture there?

147
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 3: I don't look at either one of them as like

148
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,719
Speaker 3: a hammer man. I think both of them are more

149
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 3: finesse ish receiversh you know.

150
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 2: Now, Ford did catch a touchdown pass, but yeah he did.

151
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:00,279
Speaker 3: Are you picking I mean everyone in the world picking

152
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 3: up Ford for waiver wire? Are you picking up Strong

153
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:04,480
Speaker 3: like he's definitely out there?

154
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:06,359
Speaker 2: Should probably stash him at least or at least be

155
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,799
Speaker 2: on your radar if they If I see that again

156
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 2: where they go all the way down the field, And

157
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 2: maybe it was a situation where Ford had just run

158
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 2: sixty nine yards, it was a little winded, but because

159
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 2: he ran actually about one hundred and forty yards on

160
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 2: that play.

161
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 3: But still I like Strong though.

162
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 2: James Connor twenty three for one oh six in a touchdown.

163
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 3: Dobbs is playing well.

164
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 2: I mean, I think the Giants defenses jump. I don't

165
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 2: want to hear anything about those two defensive tackles that

166
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 2: they have because these were runs. I've watched some of

167
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 2: these runs. Those guys are getting shoved out of the

168
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 2: like there was one play and I understand if it's

169
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 2: a double team, but Leonard Williams got driven back about

170
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 2: ten yards.

171
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 3: I mean there were big holes for Connor.

172
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 2: Yeah. Huge.

173
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 3: I am opened the idea though not Dobbs, but Connor

174
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 3: ertz well.

175
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 2: Er is definitely playable in the mix. Yeah, he's not.

176
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 3: There's no ceiling there, Like the ceiling is right next

177
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:02,119
Speaker 3: it's right next to the floor.

178
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 2: But he's gonna catch six or seven passes every game. Yeah,

179
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,000
Speaker 2: it's gonna be for forty yards.

180
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 3: He's a three yards.

181
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 2: He's gonna get you eleven eleven points, ten to eleven

182
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:12,320
Speaker 2: points every game.

183
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 3: But in today's tight end market, it's not so bad, right,

184
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 3: I'll pay consistency there.

185
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 2: Yeah.

186
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 3: Uh.

187
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 2: And then Zach Moss eighteen for eighty eight in a touchdown.

188
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 3: We talked about him earlier. He's in a good spot.

189
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 2: Yeah. Brian Robinson eighteen for eighty seven and two touchdowns.

190
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 3: I sold him short. I mean, I've already sold my

191
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 3: Gibson stock. I thought Robinson was just a guy.

192
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 2: He looks good.

193
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, one's hard. He's faster than I thought. He's a

194
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:39,600
Speaker 3: better back than I gave him credit for.

195
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:44,200
Speaker 2: Derrick Henry had twenty five for eighty and a touchdown

196
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 2: against the Chargers. Now they've won that game, but he

197
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 2: avers three point two yards of carry.

198
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 3: I don't know if his days of eighty yard ors

199
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:54,440
Speaker 3: stiff arming Texans down the field are still in front

200
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 3: of him. Especially got that line.

201
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 2: Twenty five carries for eighty yards and he had a

202
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 2: twenty three yard run. His other twenty four carries he ever,

203
00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 2: was about two yards of carry.

204
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not great.

205
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, not great.

206
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 3: And Chargers run defense isn't all that great either.

207
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:12,320
Speaker 2: Taysom Hill had nine for seventy five.

208
00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 3: I hate everyone hates that, like nobody wants that guy

209
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:15,560
Speaker 3: involved again.

210
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, well he was out there a lot in this game. Yeah,

211
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 2: I mean they got Jamal Williams got hurt.

212
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:23,720
Speaker 3: It looked like even early on he was more part

213
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 3: of the game plan. Yeah, so I don't know, detached car,

214
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 3: wide receiver and snap at the hill and yeah.

215
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:33,559
Speaker 2: I want to talk about this one as well. Matt

216
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 2: Tony Pollard had twenty five for seventy two and didn't score.

217
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,080
Speaker 2: Had some catches in there, obviously, that's what he does.

218
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 2: Are you concerned if Tony Pollard gets twenty five carries

219
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 2: a game, how many games does he last?

220
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 3: Well? I was listening to a podcast of people I

221
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 3: trust Fantasy Life Matthew Berry's website, and they were talking

222
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:55,840
Speaker 3: about his usage, and then the question came up, if

223
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 3: we were drafting today for rest of the year, how

224
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 3: many backs would you take ahead of Pollard? They came

225
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,960
Speaker 3: up with McCaffrey and that was it. I mean, Eckler's

226
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:10,400
Speaker 3: banged up. They brought Trub's done. I don't know how

227
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:12,719
Speaker 3: long are you to get him for. But he's on

228
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 3: a great offense, and he's getting obscene touches and he's

229
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 3: a great receiver. If he holds up better pick.

230
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:21,240
Speaker 2: A big if if they're gonna if they're gonna give

231
00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 2: him thirty touches a game.

232
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's not built like.

233
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,680
Speaker 2: I don't Yeah, I don't know that. You know, right,

234
00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:30,960
Speaker 2: that's diicy it is. The running back position is a

235
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:31,559
Speaker 2: mess right now.

236
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 3: It's a mess. It got hit really hard.

237
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:33,560
Speaker 2: Lately.

238
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:37,559
Speaker 3: But if you're a Pollard owner, right, happy year. I mean, plus,

239
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 3: his handcuffs are goofy. I mean, do you want Ricot? Yeah? Yeah,

240
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,880
Speaker 3: I mean I don't want the tiny dude out of

241
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,560
Speaker 3: k State. He's never gonna be the regular guy. If

242
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:47,600
Speaker 3: they had pure backup.

243
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,760
Speaker 2: They're a team. I can't believe they haven't signed somebody.

244
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, you would think Forette like Fournette would be perfect

245
00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 3: for something like that.

246
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 2: Right, looking at the one hundred yard receivers, there were

247
00:10:58,240 --> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 2: twelve this week.

248
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:00,679
Speaker 3: Scoring was up.

249
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 2: Mike Evans had six for one seventy one in a touchdown.

250
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,320
Speaker 3: I didn't see that coming. He's had two great weeks

251
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 3: and Baker doesn't stink and they're good enough.

252
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 2: Justin Jefferson eleven for one fifty nine but didn't score,

253
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,839
Speaker 2: just missed. But I mean that's he's basically cost them

254
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:16,200
Speaker 2: the game.

255
00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 3: Like, yeah, you guess you're right on that. I mean,

256
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 3: I hate that rule, but that's the whole difference.

257
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,480
Speaker 2: The rule is a rule. I mean it's Yeah, Pooka

258
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:28,240
Speaker 2: Nikua for the second week in row fifteen for one forty.

259
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 3: Seven, most catches ever for someone's first two games. Yeah,

260
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,320
Speaker 3: he's a I won't say he's wide receiver one, but

261
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:36,400
Speaker 3: he's a must start now.

262
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 2: Uh Nico collins Well seven for one forty six in

263
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 2: a touchdown.

264
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:41,240
Speaker 3: He's good.

265
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 2: His air yards are ridiculous right now.

266
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:43,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's good.

267
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 2: H Ceed Lamb eleven for one forty three. Didn't score though.

268
00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 2: Uh DeVante Smith four for one thirty one in a touchdown.

269
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,840
Speaker 2: George Pickens four for one to twenty seven and a touchdown.

270
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 2: Marvin Mims two for one thirteen in a touchdown. This

271
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:01,840
Speaker 2: this is why he can't just box score watch.

272
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, you gotta be a little careful with it.

273
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 2: He was on the field for six snaps. Six snaps.

274
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:08,520
Speaker 3: I think he played like that much in Week one too. Yeah,

275
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,959
Speaker 3: so it wasn't like an injury. They're really easing him

276
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,200
Speaker 3: into things and he caught two nice ones.

277
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 2: Yeah. People in Denver right now are probably going, why

278
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:19,200
Speaker 2: aren't they playing mimes all the time. Well, he probably

279
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 2: runs the wrong routes like nine percent of the time

280
00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,319
Speaker 2: in practice and early. We can't put you out yeah,

281
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 2: we can't put you out there.

282
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 3: It's like Jalen Hyatt for the Giants, same thing, two

283
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:29,679
Speaker 3: long ones. But he's a one trick pony.

284
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 2: Uh Keenan Allen eight for one eleven and two touchdowns.

285
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:34,080
Speaker 2: That's real.

286
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:36,080
Speaker 3: I mean, that's who he is. Him and Evans aren't

287
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 3: going away anytime soon.

288
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,040
Speaker 2: Christian Kirk eleven for one to ten, didn't score.

289
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:41,800
Speaker 3: Would you trade him right now?

290
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:43,440
Speaker 2: Yes?

291
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:47,440
Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah, I mean it's Ridley's gonna hurt him and

292
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 3: Kirk still not playing every snap?

293
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:53,520
Speaker 2: Yeah. Uh. DJ Moore six for one oh four. That's

294
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 2: a good sign one.

295
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 3: Yeah.

296
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 2: We kind of called that one last week like that.

297
00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,080
Speaker 3: That was a squeaky wheel conscious effort.

298
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,280
Speaker 2: To get him. We kind of called Kirk too anti Higgins.

299
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 2: Like these guys, these guys who are really good receivers,

300
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 2: when they don't get the football where they don't have

301
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:10,680
Speaker 2: any catches, typically the offensive coordinator will come out and

302
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 2: the quarterback will get together and go, hey, we got

303
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:13,880
Speaker 2: to get him involved a little bit more.

304
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:16,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you have to have an ego at

305
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:17,199
Speaker 3: that position.

306
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 2: Yeah. A monros Saint Brown six for one oh two.

307
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 3: It's like that too. Yeah. A lot of my guys

308
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 3: were like him in the Lave that had good weeks

309
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,480
Speaker 3: but didn't score, Like they'll be fine.

310
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 2: How about this. This is a good a good stat

311
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 2: for George Pickens this week. Gabe Davis six for ninety

312
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:37,040
Speaker 2: two in a touchdown.

313
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 3: He's the deep guy, he's the similar Yeah, you know,

314
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 3: Deonta's more of the Diggs. Yeah right, but he's not

315
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 3: gonna be a round but still yeah, so I'm sorry.

316
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,959
Speaker 3: There aren't many games where Gabe Davis has six catches.

317
00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 3: Let's just put it that way.

318
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 2: Good point, like, he's not usually a high volume guy.

319
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,559
Speaker 3: No, no back to pickings though, he'll be in our

320
00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:00,200
Speaker 3: top thirty six this week. Yeah, I would think he's

321
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:00,600
Speaker 3: a starter.

322
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:05,200
Speaker 2: Amari Cooper had seven for ninety t Higgins we mentioned

323
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,840
Speaker 2: eight for eighty nine and two touchdowns. That was the

324
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,440
Speaker 2: squeaky wheel there. You mentioned Jalen Hyde, he had two

325
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 2: for eighty nine. Again, don't just look at this, don't

326
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 2: just look at Oh he had a bunch of points

327
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 2: this week. Well, okay, we mentioned a Lave six for

328
00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 2: eighty six. Jaylen Waddell, he's in concussion protocol right now,

329
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,640
Speaker 2: but he had four for eighty six. Davante Adams six

330
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 2: for eighty four in a touchdown. He's in concussion protocol.

331
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,800
Speaker 3: And Buyers was in concussion protocol.

332
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, missed the game. Yeah, then you had Mike Williams

333
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 2: eight for eighty three.

334
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, those two got the ball, I mean Alan and Williams.

335
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 2: Garrett Wilson two for eighty three in a touchdown. He

336
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 2: had a sixty eight yard touchdown catch and run. He's

337
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 2: you're worried about that? Yea, yeah, I'm real worried.

338
00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 3: It's not his fault at all. He's awesome. Yeah, I

339
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 3: mean that wasn't a flukey play. They're going to take

340
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 3: shots to him. But how often they gonna connect that offense?

341
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 3: They don't play Dallas every week. Fortunately, I aired on

342
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 3: the side of starting Breeze Hall in a couple of

343
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 3: leagues and that was brutal. But they're gonna be brutal.

344
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 2: They're gonna be tough to watch.

345
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:12,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, Dalvin Cook doesn't look great.

346
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 2: In their schedules. Awful, brutal, awful, brutal. Yeah, uh two two.

347
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:18,680
Speaker 2: Atwell had seven for seventy seven.

348
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 3: I don't know how, like in Dynasty, we do these

349
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,720
Speaker 3: deep things. Is at Well worth picking back up? Yeah?

350
00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, Yeah.

351
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 3: I mean McVeigh knows what he's doing and everyone's focused

352
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:33,960
Speaker 3: on Puka, but Atwell's been useful. Uh.

353
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 2: Darren Waller was the twenty third most receiving yards this week.

354
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,600
Speaker 3: That's our first tight end, the first tight end.

355
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 2: He had six for seventy six.

356
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,400
Speaker 3: I think that's what he's gonna do. But man, it'd

357
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 3: be nice to get the Kelsey's and Kittles and Goddards

358
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:52,320
Speaker 3: and now Andrews.

359
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 2: Andrews had a better day than Neck because he scored.

360
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:59,160
Speaker 2: Uh but yeah, I mentioned trailing Burk's three for seventy six,

361
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 2: DK Mex six for seventy five, Robert Woods six for

362
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 2: seventy four.

363
00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 3: He's a starter. Yeah, I thought you're gonna bring him

364
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 3: up soon. Stroud through for a lot of yards.

365
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 2: They're behind constantly. They don't run, they can't like, they.

366
00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,120
Speaker 3: Can't run right now, Pierce. Yeah, it's not his fault either.

367
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's just no holes. Their offensive line is a mess.

368
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 3: There's a mess. Stroud got hit or got sacked six times,

369
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 3: but he still threw for like three and a quarter.

370
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 2: Yeah. Also on that Houston team, Tank Dell seven for

371
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 2: seventy two in a touchdown buying a volume guy.

372
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, he could be a slot machine. And I think

373
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:31,920
Speaker 3: he scored right.

374
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:33,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean there's he's he's it.

375
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:35,800
Speaker 3: Now, he's it. I don't think they play a particularly

376
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 3: hard schedule. I mean in the AFC South, those three

377
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 3: are all interesting. Nico is a starter though.

378
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 2: Yeah. Jordan Addison three for seventy two in a touchdown.

379
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 3: He's good, but he's a little flu I think he's

380
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 3: a little hit or missing.

381
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 2: He's like number three in that offense. Hawkinson's getting ridiculous

382
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:52,040
Speaker 2: amount of targets right now as well.

383
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 3: They're throwing the ball.

384
00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 2: They can't run at all at all.

385
00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 3: I was digging into the stats packs and stuff. I mean,

386
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 3: the Steelers right now are the second highest passing percentage

387
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 3: in the league. They're like seventy four percent. The Vikings

388
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:08,680
Speaker 3: are like eighty two. Yeah, I mean like it's in insane.

389
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:10,840
Speaker 2: They can't run and is playing well. Yeah, they can't

390
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:12,959
Speaker 2: run and they don't can't even try to run.

391
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 3: So maybe I'm wrong about Addison saying he's hit or miss.

392
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 3: He might not be. I mean they might be able

393
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 3: to support three big time pass catchers. They're not gonna

394
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:20,440
Speaker 3: throw eighty two percent of the time.

395
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:23,200
Speaker 2: You worry about that. I mean three catches those great.

396
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:25,439
Speaker 2: The volumes not gonna be But if they just got

397
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 2: a ton sky Moore had three for seventy in a touchdown.

398
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 3: I'm sort of buying it. I mean, their receivers in

399
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,120
Speaker 3: general are hard to start.

400
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:39,040
Speaker 2: Oka Darius Tony now has a foot issue, go figure, Yeah,

401
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 2: so yeah, why not?

402
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:44,119
Speaker 3: Yeah? And we liked him the most coming in. They're tough.

403
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:47,399
Speaker 2: Uh. And then Drake London six for sixty seven and

404
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:51,040
Speaker 2: a touchdown. There's that squeaky wheel again. H Kyle Pitts

405
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:52,240
Speaker 2: needs to be a squeaky.

406
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:55,240
Speaker 3: With squeak he maybe he's just squeaking.

407
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,680
Speaker 2: I know you've got him, You're you're investing, You're invested again?

408
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 2: Are you giving up on Cole? I'll pitch ye.

409
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 3: But there's not many other options. I mean in the

410
00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,960
Speaker 3: in those leagues. I'll probably send out some feelers for

411
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 3: trade for like a Hawkinson, But those I mean who

412
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:14,359
Speaker 3: who you target in the tight end world, Like wh

413
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,200
Speaker 3: who's happy with their tight end right now?

414
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 2: Not many hawk Hawkinson, whoever owned Kelsey Andrews.

415
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,440
Speaker 3: Wall I mean Kittle owners.

416
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 2: Kittle owners are'n happy he's done that.

417
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,200
Speaker 3: But those four four huh yeah, okay.

418
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 2: And maybe I'm trying to think there's anybody else.

419
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:35,880
Speaker 3: Is there any sleeper guys?

420
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 2: Maybe if you if you we just brought them up ers.

421
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,239
Speaker 2: If you if you have urs, maybe you're going, oh, well,

422
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:41,879
Speaker 2: I can live with this.

423
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:42,919
Speaker 3: I can live with a single.

424
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 2: Yeah.

425
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 3: I mean that's where it's at right.

426
00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 2: Now, because you know it's you're not you're not hoping

427
00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 2: for a touchdown. You're not hoping for three for fifty

428
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:50,959
Speaker 2: in a touchdown at volume.

429
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:52,120
Speaker 3: He didn't get targets.

430
00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's just not much there right now.

431
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:57,960
Speaker 3: There isn't. I mean, maybe the smart shrewd move is

432
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:00,960
Speaker 3: who's next in the tight end pack order. Who's somebody

433
00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:04,640
Speaker 3: out there that we're not given enough credit that could

434
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:08,360
Speaker 3: be ready to be viable. I don't know who that is.

435
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:11,480
Speaker 2: Nobody's making themselves apparent.

436
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm kind of still a Chig believer because

437
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 3: he's out there a lot.

438
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:16,760
Speaker 2: I thought maybe Logan Thomas, and then he got lit

439
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,520
Speaker 2: up again. I don't. I don't trust Logan Thomas.

440
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 3: Yeah.

441
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:22,600
Speaker 2: It's rough, but their offense they like to go to.

442
00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 2: They like to they want to throw to the tight ends.

443
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:27,040
Speaker 3: Like Seattle has a lot of tight ends on the field,

444
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:28,800
Speaker 3: but there's not one you start.

445
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,200
Speaker 2: No, they all get they all end up at the

446
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:31,399
Speaker 2: end of the game. They all end up they have

447
00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:34,200
Speaker 2: two for for twenty and there's three of them. If

448
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 2: they had one, yeah, you know that would be different.

449
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 3: But how about like a Laporta or somebody like that.

450
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 2: That's laport is probably the next guy just because the

451
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:45,400
Speaker 2: offense that they're in.

452
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:46,880
Speaker 3: But yeah, they're not.

453
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 2: They're He's down the pecking order to.

454
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 3: Trading cal Pits for him. But cal Pitts doesn't get

455
00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 3: you anything.

456
00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:58,960
Speaker 2: Nobody's gonna want Kyle Pitts him. He's had two games

457
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 2: in the last two year where he's done anything, done anything.

458
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 2: They just don't throw the football.

459
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,680
Speaker 3: He might be a bad fantasy player and I might

460
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 3: just have to admit it someday, as opposed to just

461
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:14,359
Speaker 3: losing every time I start him. Brutal but tight ends rough.

462
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 2: Right now, what did you tell me earlier today? You're

463
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 2: in nine leagues.

464
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:23,680
Speaker 3: In nine leagues, seven of them are dynasties, and one

465
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,119
Speaker 3: of those dynasty leagues i'd prefer to lose, like you

466
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 3: put your best lineup in. Ye, I'm totally rebuilding. And

467
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 3: none of the nine leagues that I have a disastrous week,

468
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:36,560
Speaker 3: but I went one in eight with the team I

469
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 3: want to lose was the one. It's just like, I

470
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,840
Speaker 3: had a lot of good starts that didn't score touchdowns.

471
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 3: You know, a couple of bad decisions, but none of

472
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 3: them were horrible. It's rare to do that.

473
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,159
Speaker 2: That's fantasy football.

474
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:51,680
Speaker 3: Right there are two of those leagues. I played the

475
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:54,359
Speaker 3: league winner that week, you know, a good week, but

476
00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:55,520
Speaker 3: I lost by twenty you know.

477
00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:58,000

Speaker 3: I don't ENVM right now. Yeah again, like I don't

499
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 3: even know how you power rank the AFC.

500
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:14,480
Speaker 2: I mean it wouldn't be right, not fun.

501
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 3: Baltimore Miami wouldn't be my top two, but they're the

502
00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:17,920
Speaker 3: two and OHO teams.

503
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,119
Speaker 2: As things stand right now. The Steelers in the number

504
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 2: six spot in the playoff ros really are talking playoffs?

505
00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,119
Speaker 3: Okay, they're in. Well, I mean it works.

506
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:30,120
Speaker 2: So at thirty two of the Arizona Cardinals, they came

507
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 2: from behind the loser or came from a head to

508
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:32,440
Speaker 2: lose again.

509
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think both teams won that game. Yeah, I mean,

510
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:36,879
Speaker 3: Giants got what they wanted, They got the win, and

511
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,760
Speaker 3: Arizona was competitive and got the loss, just as I'd like.

512
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:44,400
Speaker 2: At thirty one the Houston Texans, I think they.

513
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:46,200
Speaker 3: Could compete with Arizona as the worst team in the league.

514
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:48,080
Speaker 3: Right now, they're doing some better things.

515
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:49,400
Speaker 2: Their offensive lines just a bit.

516
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:51,520
Speaker 3: It's a mess, and the defense isn't particularly good.

517
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:54,919
Speaker 2: At thirty, the Indianapolis Colts.

518
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:57,119
Speaker 3: Oh, I think there's worse teams than them.

519
00:22:57,520 --> 00:22:59,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would agree, And.

520
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:01,560
Speaker 3: I know there's be the Texans who's below them, but

521
00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 3: I mean they's the Buckner's and Leonards and Nelson's.

522
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:06,880
Speaker 2: And I would have this. I would have this next

523
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:10,240
Speaker 2: team lower than them, The Chicago Bears at twenty nine.

524
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think there's a bottom tier and the Bears

525
00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 3: are in it and the Colts aren't.

526
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:15,719
Speaker 2: Well, they might be.

527
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:20,640
Speaker 3: I mean there's a true, potentially first overall pick type team.

528
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:23,359
Speaker 2: At twenty eight. Are the Giants pretty bad?

529
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 3: I mean there was a stretch. My buddy sent me

530
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,080
Speaker 3: a text that through six and a half quarters they

531
00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 3: had been outscored like seventy to nothing.

532
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was not good, not good at all.

533
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:35,600
Speaker 3: And the last quarter and a half was better, but

534
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,479
Speaker 3: they got to win. But boy, there now they are Barkley.

535
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 3: They're gonna get killed on Thursdays.

536
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:42,520
Speaker 2: Oh my god, they don't even watch that game San

537
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 2: Fran in San Francisco.

538
00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,480
Speaker 3: In San Fran, Yeah, short week, they're gonna get destroyed.

539
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 2: San Francisco's home opener, Like.

540
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,679
Speaker 3: I wonder they were in Arizona. They go home to

541
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 3: the New York and then go or do you stay

542
00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 3: out West?

543
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:59,520
Speaker 2: I would say it's all bad. At twenty seven the

544
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:01,360
Speaker 2: Carolina Panthers.

545
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:04,000
Speaker 3: They're pretty bad too. Yeah, they really don't have weapons

546
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:04,680
Speaker 3: at all.

547
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:08,720
Speaker 2: At twenty six down three spots, we finally have some movement.

548
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:13,440
Speaker 3: The Raiders they would be lower, Like I think the

549
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:16,439
Speaker 3: Colts are better than the Raiders. Yeah, Jimmy's played okay.

550
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:18,919
Speaker 3: I mean the more research I've done, it's like Jimmy's

551
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,720
Speaker 3: all right. Their receivers are all right, but they're both injured.

552
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:25,399
Speaker 3: Jacobs can't run at all. I mean, you think the

553
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:29,360
Speaker 3: Steelers can't run Minnesota's or worse. And I think their

554
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:30,200
Speaker 3: defense is terrible.

555
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 2: At twenty five holding steady, the New England Patriots. Yeah

556
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:36,200
Speaker 2: that's who they are.

557
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:40,560
Speaker 3: Are You think that's what they'll be in when week seventeen. Yes, yeah,

558
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:41,760
Speaker 3: they're going to be in that neighborhood.

559
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:43,160
Speaker 2: They're like a five or six win team.

560
00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:46,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not so good. I like their defense, but

561
00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:48,840
Speaker 3: that's a tough way to live. At twenty four, up

562
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:52,359
Speaker 3: two spots, the Rams they should be higher.

563
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,480
Speaker 2: They've been competitive in both the Yeah, I.

564
00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:57,280
Speaker 3: Mean McVeigh and Stafford go a long way like I

565
00:24:57,280 --> 00:24:58,679
Speaker 3: would have them ahead of Denver.

566
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:03,320
Speaker 2: Well, Denver's next up here they were they go down

567
00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:04,640
Speaker 2: three spots to twenty three.

568
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 3: I mean, we're splitting hairs. But what if Denver and

569
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:08,880
Speaker 3: the Patriots play one hundred.

570
00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 2: I think they've lost. Here's the thing for Denver. I

571
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,639
Speaker 2: think they've lost their two games by combined five points.

572
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:16,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, they've been tight ones, but they're not the good teams.

573
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:20,240
Speaker 3: They lost the Raiders in Washington at home at home.

574
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,879
Speaker 3: I think New England's better than Denver at.

575
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:29,400
Speaker 2: Twenty two, down five spots the Oho and two Vikings.

576
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:31,800
Speaker 3: They've got huge problems. Yeah, I mean what they do

577
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 3: well they do.

578
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,080
Speaker 2: They threw the ball, That's what they do.

579
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:36,200
Speaker 3: They can't run the ball.

580
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:39,919
Speaker 2: Are scary team to play, Yeah, but at.

581
00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:42,640
Speaker 3: The end of the day, they don't have much defensive talent. Yeah,

582
00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:43,560
Speaker 3: and they can't run the ball.

583
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 2: Eleven to zero in one score games last year. Yeah,

584
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 2: they might go and eleven and one score games this year.

585
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:53,080
Speaker 3: And Cousins always takes a beating, but everyone's just gonna

586
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 3: tee off on the path. He's gonna hit a lot.

587
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:58,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, at twenty one up three spots, the two and

588
00:25:58,640 --> 00:25:59,879
Speaker 2: o Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

589
00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 3: Okay, but out of the Rams ahead of the Bucks.

590
00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:06,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think they've been more like they've better quarterback.

591
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:09,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, at least the way they're constructed right now.

592
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 3: But give the Bucks credit. I mean they're two and

593
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:13,240
Speaker 3: oh Mike Evans and you know guys like that. I mean,

594
00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 3: they got dudes At twenty up two spots Tennessee, I

595
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:20,080
Speaker 3: guess maybe that's as high as they can go, though.

596
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just don't think they're very good either.

597
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:25,080
Speaker 3: I mean, no line in Tannehill's Okay.

598
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,359
Speaker 2: They won on Sunday without Skeronsky, so I know, I

599
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:31,440
Speaker 2: don't know how Yeah that on the Chargers, Charger.

600
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:33,920
Speaker 3: That's just yeah, Chargers are typical.

601
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 2: At nineteen up two spots, Washington, I guess, is Washington

602
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:41,160
Speaker 2: that's about as high as they can say.

603
00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 3: That's a little kind. I'm not sure Washington's noticeably better

604
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:48,919
Speaker 3: than the Patriots. Is Washington noticeably better than the Giants?

605
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,160
Speaker 2: I mean, well, I'm based on the Giants have played

606
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 2: thus far.

607
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 3: Yeahah, I guess Washington's two and o, right, Yeah, Yeah.

608
00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:01,879
Speaker 2: At eighteen down, three spots green Bay.

609
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,800
Speaker 3: I bet i'd have them higher. I think Green Bay's

610
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 3: playing pretty well.

611
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:07,639
Speaker 2: They weren't playing well Sunday.

612
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,479
Speaker 3: I mean, it was even battle against the team. It's

613
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:12,359
Speaker 3: gonna be ahead of them.

614
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,159
Speaker 2: At seventeen up, two spots the Steelers.

615
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:18,840
Speaker 3: That's fair. I would have Green Bay over Steelers. I

616
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,400
Speaker 3: don't know if i'd have any of those other teams. Steelers'

617
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:22,240
Speaker 3: offense is pretty rough.

618
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,600
Speaker 2: It's pretty rough, but they still have defensive stars.

619
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:25,960
Speaker 3: They do.

620
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:30,520
Speaker 2: They do like I'm putting them. I'm putting the Steelers

621
00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 2: right now ahead of Cleveland.

622
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:35,120
Speaker 3: Without Nick Chubb, you're putting them ahead of the Bengals.

623
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:38,560
Speaker 2: I'm not ready to go there yet. I mean, but

624
00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 2: their offense, as bad as the Steelers offense has been,

625
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:44,040
Speaker 2: it's played better than Cincinnati.

626
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:45,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what I mean. Like, that's why power ranks

627
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,199
Speaker 3: are tough. I mean, Bengals started the season fourth or

628
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 3: fifth on power ranks, so you don't hold things against

629
00:27:50,320 --> 00:27:50,800
Speaker 3: them as much.

630
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:52,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you just think they're a good team, well

631
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:54,000
Speaker 2: after two weeks, they haven't been.

632
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:55,720
Speaker 3: If you watch the one hundred and twenty minutes of

633
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:58,119
Speaker 3: offense they've put on tape, it's atrocious.

634
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,639
Speaker 2: Yea, and they might not have Burrow this week could

635
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:04,600
Speaker 2: get worse. At sixteen down four spots the Chargers.

636
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,920
Speaker 3: I would have the Chargers over the Steelers, but they've

637
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,640
Speaker 3: got problems. They're own two, they're own two.

638
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:15,119
Speaker 2: At fifteen up three spots Seattle.

639
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,240
Speaker 3: I didn't think they'd rebound like they did. I give

640
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:18,080
Speaker 3: them all the credit in the world.

641
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 2: It might be more about Detroit maybe again not being

642
00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:23,600
Speaker 2: ready for prime time. You win a big game against

643
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 2: the Chiefs and then you have a leftdown game.

644
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and Pete Carroll knows what he's doing.

645
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:32,160
Speaker 2: At fourteen up two spots, the two and Oho Falcons.

646
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,280
Speaker 3: Okay, defense is so much better than last year. It's

647
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:37,560
Speaker 3: not great, but it's not as bad as it's been.

648
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:42,280
Speaker 2: At thirteen holding steady Cleveland.

649
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 3: These last couple teams I would like. I think Green

650
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 3: Bay is better than Cleveland. I think Atlanta's better than Cleveland.

651
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 3: I think the last couple of teams you mentioned San

652
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:49,600
Speaker 3: Diego's or San Diego I haven't done that.

653
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:50,280
Speaker 2: In a couple of years.

654
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 3: Chargers, I think are better than Cleveland.

655
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 2: Y Cleveland's in trouble without job.

656
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:58,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that's their best offensive player, most important.

657
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 2: At twelve on one spot Cincinnati, I get.

658
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:05,680
Speaker 3: I don't know where i'd put them like. You could

659
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:08,280
Speaker 3: be critical and say they should be twenty two, or

660
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 3: you could leave them here and say they'll get it right.

661
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:12,960
Speaker 2: Well, they banged them for the first week loss.

662
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:14,720
Speaker 3: So you got to move them down. Yeah, they lost

663
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 3: at home to the Ravens, and I don't think the

664
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:18,240
Speaker 3: Ravens are great.

665
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:19,120
Speaker 2: No, I don't either.

666
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 3: That would have the Ravens number one division in this

667
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:26,160
Speaker 3: but I don't think they're great. Yeah, two division losses too.

668
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,720
Speaker 2: At eleven down to the Jets, I am sorry, No,

669
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:32,720
Speaker 2: the Jets might have to be. They got to be

670
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 2: in the bottom ten.

671
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:37,640
Speaker 3: So they're a bottom five offense. And there's some bad

672
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:42,000
Speaker 3: offenses out there right now, including Pittsburgh's. But that's enough

673
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:42,720
Speaker 3: for me to not have.

674
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:47,160
Speaker 2: The thing is is you can't turn, you can't give

675
00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:48,680
Speaker 2: the ball to the other team consistently.

676
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,880
Speaker 3: I mean, your defense going to do so much. Yeah,

677
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:54,840
Speaker 3: it's a great D, but we saw what appen. I mean,

678
00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:56,880
Speaker 3: great D takes you so far against a really good team.

679
00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:59,880
Speaker 2: At ten up four spots the Saints.

680
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,360
Speaker 3: I'm fine with that, actually, I mean they would be

681
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:07,560
Speaker 3: the top team in that division. They have weapons, you know.

682
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:11,520
Speaker 2: At nine down, two spots, Jacksonville.

683
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:13,920
Speaker 3: None of these teams are overly blowing me away at

684
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,040
Speaker 3: the moment. These are top ten teams.

685
00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:17,959
Speaker 2: These are top ten team. That's what I mean. They're

686
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 2: the It's a fine line.

687
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:24,760
Speaker 3: I mean, if the Steelers offense showed a semblance, they

688
00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:26,640
Speaker 3: could play as well as these teams, you know what

689
00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:29,160
Speaker 3: I mean. I mean, it's far away from doing that.

690
00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:32,680
Speaker 3: But man, guess jackson Will just lost the Chiefs. I mean,

691
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 3: we're not going to kill him for that.

692
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 2: At eight down two spots, Detroit, would.

693
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:39,920
Speaker 3: You still have Detroit over Seattle even though they lost them?

694
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:42,240
Speaker 2: I think I would probably. Yeah.

695
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 3: If they play one hundred and eleven times.

696
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 2: I think they went in that tournament, it's seven up,

697
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:51,600
Speaker 2: three spots Baltimore. Sure, that's as high as they go

698
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:54,280
Speaker 2: all year, right, I think that's maybe they're that's the ceiling.

699
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:58,080
Speaker 2: I like what their offense are to show. But they

700
00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:01,400
Speaker 2: played against Burrows and they play the Colts this week.

701
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:03,880
Speaker 2: I mean, it just keeps like the schedule sets up

702
00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:07,200
Speaker 2: nicely for them. This is what so the last couple

703
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 2: of years they've gotten off the hot starts and then

704
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 2: Lamar gets hurting and they kind of hang on, and

705
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:16,640
Speaker 2: you know, maybe that's what happens again with them. They

706
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:19,800
Speaker 2: just maybe not even Lamar getting like their offense does

707
00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:21,480
Speaker 2: not look like it's.

708
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:25,640
Speaker 3: They look like, I mean, this is so cutting, you know,

709
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 3: so small a detail, but they look like a one

710
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 3: to one team that's two.

711
00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:30,760
Speaker 2: And oh yeah, you know that's what they look like.

712
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:31,520
Speaker 2: They look like.

713
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:33,480
Speaker 3: I mean, they have their warts and they beat a

714
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 3: Houston team that's not close to already for prime time. Yeah, Like,

715
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:38,560
Speaker 3: I don't look at the Ravens. I could see the

716
00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:39,520
Speaker 3: Bengals winning the Super Bowl.

717
00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:41,040
Speaker 2: I can't see the rave I can't see the Ravens

718
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:47,000
Speaker 2: winning it. Yeah. At six up, two spots Buffalo, Okay, Yeah.

719
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,560
Speaker 3: They're a little disappointing. But I'm not sure any team

720
00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:50,920
Speaker 3: we mentioned is better than the Bills.

721
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:56,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think so. At five holding Steady Miami.

722
00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:59,440
Speaker 3: They deserve that. They would be my second best team

723
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:02,080
Speaker 3: in the AFC, because the Chiefs deserve respect.

724
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 2: At four holding against yeah, at four holding Steady is Dallas.

725
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:08,520
Speaker 3: I think that'd be one for me.

726
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,000
Speaker 2: I can't go there. I don't I don't think so.

727
00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 3: I think their d is great and the offense is

728
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:16,240
Speaker 3: quite good. Uh.

729
00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,520
Speaker 2: At three, holding steady is Philadelphia, Okay.

730
00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 3: I still think there's a piece missing there though in

731
00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:24,480
Speaker 3: the passing game, they'll get it right, but their defense

732
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:26,680
Speaker 3: hasn't been dominant. I think Dallas is better than the

733
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:27,400
Speaker 3: Eagles today.

734
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:31,120
Speaker 2: At two holding steadies Kansas City.

735
00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:33,720
Speaker 3: I get it. I mean they deserve the respect.

736
00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:35,920
Speaker 2: And then at one is San Francisco.

737
00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 3: I totally agreed with San fran a week ago. I

738
00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 3: think I would have Dallas in San Fran one in

739
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:45,960
Speaker 3: one A. I really think they're that close. I party

740
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,800
Speaker 3: wasn't great this past week. I mean he wasn't.

741
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:51,600
Speaker 2: He wasn't, but they found a way to win against

742
00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:52,960
Speaker 2: back to back road games.

743
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:56,240
Speaker 3: It's not easy, back to back rogaated sort of season.

744
00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:56,840
Speaker 3: I didn't thought of that.

745
00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:59,240
Speaker 2: Not easy. I still think that. I think they're the

746
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,480
Speaker 2: best team all around.

747
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:03,440
Speaker 3: Knows how to play Shanahan. Yeah, you know, like there's

748
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:04,640
Speaker 3: a division thing going.

749
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:08,040
Speaker 2: I just I'm not sold on Dallas being I mean,

750
00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 2: I I just think they're playing the I think the

751
00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 2: Giants stink. I think the I think the I mean,

752
00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 2: I think the Giants have reverted.

753
00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:18,680
Speaker 3: To it was they couldn't have been worse than the Open.

754
00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:20,840
Speaker 2: And I think they got the Jets at exactly the

755
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,920
Speaker 2: right moment to get the Jets. You know, if Aaron

756
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:25,960
Speaker 2: Rodgers plays in that game, I don't know that the

757
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:29,360
Speaker 2: Jets win it, but they don't get blown out y,

758
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:30,400
Speaker 2: you know.

759
00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:32,880
Speaker 3: I just think it's the slaughtered both those teams.

760
00:33:33,040 --> 00:33:35,360
Speaker 2: Well, you should slaughter. You should slaughter the team with

761
00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:37,960
Speaker 2: its backup quarterback on the road, and you should slaughter

762
00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:40,719
Speaker 2: what is a bad team in the Giants and who

763
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:43,040
Speaker 2: you've beaten like twenty seven times in a row.

764
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 3: This is a totally different conversation. It doesn't matter about

765
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:48,080
Speaker 3: the power ranks. But if I said you can put

766
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,200
Speaker 3: a chip down on one of thirty two teams win

767
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:52,840
Speaker 3: the Super Bowl, would you pick the Chiefs? You pick

768
00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:53,440
Speaker 3: the Niners.

769
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:55,080
Speaker 2: You can give me my choice.

770
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 3: You have anyone.

771
00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 2: I can have anyone I want right now, knowing what

772
00:33:57,600 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 2: we know in September nineteenth, I'll take Kansas City. I'll

773
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 2: feel pretty good about all this stuff.

774
00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:07,040
Speaker 3: Nothing really changes all that much. What about one NFC?

775
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:08,239
Speaker 3: Would you take the Niners?

776
00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:08,840
Speaker 2: Yes?

777
00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:12,840
Speaker 3: Okay, I mean the Eagles are still formidable. Like I

778
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:14,439
Speaker 3: just said, I'd have the doabas.

779
00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:16,359
Speaker 2: I just don't think Hurts looks like himself right.

780
00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:18,080
Speaker 3: Now, me either. But I bet they figure it out

781
00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:21,120
Speaker 3: because I trust the organization and all that. I don't

782
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,560
Speaker 3: trust the Cowboy organization, even though they might be one

783
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,080
Speaker 3: of my power ranks today, they wouldn't be my pick.

784
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:28,919
Speaker 2: I think when it comes down to it, and you're

785
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 2: in a game against a good defense, do I trust

786
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:34,320
Speaker 2: Mike McCarthy calling place?

787
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:35,040
Speaker 3: Don't love it?

788
00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:35,359
Speaker 2: Right?

789
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:37,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, don't love it? I definitely trust.

790
00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:39,120
Speaker 2: Do I trust Tony Pollard to hold up?

791
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 3: I definitely trust or In the NFC Championship game they're playing.

792
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:46,399
Speaker 2: I think I think the Cowboys right now are kind

793
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:48,360
Speaker 2: of a shaky foundation.

794
00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:53,279
Speaker 3: Okay, maybe I just think they're playing really well and

795
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:55,520
Speaker 3: Parsons might be the best player on the planet right now.

796
00:34:57,160 --> 00:35:00,359
Speaker 3: Maybe I mean defense is sick right now? Again, they

797
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:01,960
Speaker 3: played too bad. I mean they played they played.

798
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:05,720
Speaker 2: Two really bad teams, like two very like. Daniel Jones

799
00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:07,839
Speaker 2: couldn't have been any worse. In Week one.

800
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:09,960
Speaker 3: They couldn't block for him.

801
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:13,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, there, and then we saw I mean the Giants

802
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:14,480
Speaker 2: should have lost to the Cardinals.

803
00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:20,960
Speaker 3: They're doing the best yeah and yeah, and.

804
00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:23,440
Speaker 2: You got a Jets team that they got them at

805
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:26,799
Speaker 2: twelve here or eleven whatever it was. There shouldn't be

806
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:29,080
Speaker 2: that high there. I mean, who are the Jets beating on,

807
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:31,960
Speaker 2: you know right now as constructed.

808
00:35:31,440 --> 00:35:36,120
Speaker 3: I mean Jets Steelers is probably nine right now, yeah,

809
00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:39,040
Speaker 3: and there they shouldn't be twelve or wherever they were.

810
00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:41,359
Speaker 2: Their offense is absolutely not. So I don't know what.

811
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 2: I don't know what the Cowboys are right now.

812
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:46,839
Speaker 3: That's why I think they're well. I just think they've

813
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:50,600
Speaker 3: played extremely well, but their competition has not been difficult.

814
00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:53,560
Speaker 2: No, not at all. We will take a look as

815
00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:56,319

827
00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:35,279
Speaker 3: Wow. Wow, you said it's a bad slate. I have

828
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,400
Speaker 3: not looked. I know Thursdays kicks.

829
00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 2: Off Thursday with the one on one Giants at the

830
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:41,440
Speaker 2: two and o forty nine Ers.

831
00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:43,440
Speaker 3: I like that to be the one and two Giants.

832
00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:45,040
Speaker 3: What's the spread in that game?

833
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:47,600
Speaker 2: Twenty oh. It's gotta be double digits.

834
00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:48,399
Speaker 3: It's gotta be high.

835
00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:48,719
Speaker 2: Yeah.

836
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:49,560
Speaker 3: Short week. Cool.

837
00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:54,840
Speaker 2: Then you have the Sunday games. At one o'clock, you

838
00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:57,360
Speaker 2: got the one on one Colts at the two and

839
00:36:57,440 --> 00:36:58,440
Speaker 2: o Ravens.

840
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:02,400
Speaker 3: Obviously Richardson playing that game and make it kind of

841
00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:04,520
Speaker 3: tough on him a little bit. I mean, Bravens are

842
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,719
Speaker 3: probably gonna win, but I'd like to see Richardson at

843
00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:09,240
Speaker 3: least put up a fight against that team.

844
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:12,040
Speaker 2: Also, at one o'clock, you've got the one on one

845
00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:14,960
Speaker 2: Titans at the one on one Browns.

846
00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:19,279
Speaker 3: Huh, that's a potential upset. Browns could drop two in

847
00:37:19,280 --> 00:37:20,759
Speaker 3: a row. They could, I mean, they're not going to

848
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:21,719
Speaker 3: run on Tennessee.

849
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:25,239
Speaker 2: At one o'clock you have the two and oh Falcons

850
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:28,160
Speaker 2: at the one and one Lions. That might be the

851
00:37:28,200 --> 00:37:30,560
Speaker 2: best game. That might be the best one. You probably

852
00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:33,040
Speaker 2: won't be able to watch that here though, that is

853
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:36,279
Speaker 2: a Fox games. Maybe at one o'clock you probably get

854
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:38,640
Speaker 2: this one here, the two and oh Saints at the

855
00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:39,600
Speaker 2: one on one Packers.

856
00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:46,560
Speaker 3: That's not bad, too mediocre, above average Titans pack all

857
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:47,320
Speaker 3: four of those teams.

858
00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:50,680
Speaker 2: You have the another one o'clock game, The zero to

859
00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:53,239
Speaker 2: two Texans are at the one and one Jaguars.

860
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:55,880
Speaker 3: That's a get right game for Yeah, that's just Jaggs.

861
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:58,120
Speaker 2: I think Jaggs should dominate that game.

862
00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:00,719
Speaker 3: Then the Steelers get the Texans clock.

863
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:03,960
Speaker 2: You have the oh and two Broncos at the two

864
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:04,800
Speaker 2: and oh Dolphins.

865
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:08,680
Speaker 3: They better win that game, and I don't think they're gonna yeah. Uh.

866
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:11,160
Speaker 2: You then have at one o'clock a pair of oh

867
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:14,719
Speaker 2: and two teams. The oh and two Chargers are at

868
00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:17,480
Speaker 2: the oh and two Vikings.

869
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:21,320
Speaker 3: That could be Is it time to start trading fifty

870
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:25,080
Speaker 3: eight fifty five? Yeah, Chargers better win that one.

871
00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:27,880
Speaker 2: They better or they're in deep trouble. Yeah. I'll tell

872
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,439
Speaker 2: you what Minnesota is. Minnesota is not an easy place

873
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:30,759
Speaker 2: to win.

874
00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:32,759
Speaker 3: No, it definitely isn't. And they're gonna throw.

875
00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:36,359
Speaker 2: At one o'clock, you have the oh and two Patriots

876
00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 2: at the one and one Jets first team to ten wins.

877
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:43,319
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, good defenses.

878
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:48,000
Speaker 2: But yeah wow, another one o'clock game, the one on

879
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,600
Speaker 2: one Bills at the two and oh Commanders. I think

880
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:56,359
Speaker 2: the Commanders fall out of the un beatings. Yeah you have.

881
00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:00,439
Speaker 2: At four oh five, the oh and two Panthers are

882
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:02,400
Speaker 2: at the one and one Seahawks.

883
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:04,520
Speaker 3: That's a tough spot for Bryce Young.

884
00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:06,840
Speaker 2: You streaming that Seahawks defense this week.

885
00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:10,200
Speaker 3: I think that's definitely a team to stream against the Panthers.

886
00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:13,680
Speaker 2: At four to twenty five, the two and oh Cowboys

887
00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:17,799
Speaker 2: are at the oh and two Cardinals. So again, we're

888
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 2: not gonna know how good the Cowboys are after three

889
00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:24,000
Speaker 2: weeks because they've played the absolute slop of the league.

890
00:39:24,040 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 3: We went back and forth on this, but this is

891
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:28,960
Speaker 3: if I did power ranks, this would be thirty two

892
00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:33,680
Speaker 3: verse one or two. But we are gonna know anything

893
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:34,920
Speaker 3: about the Cowboys. That's a good point.

894
00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:39,399
Speaker 2: At four to twenty five. If that, if that game

895
00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:41,960
Speaker 2: where the San Francisco game isn't bad enough for you,

896
00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:45,359
Speaker 2: how about this one? The oh and two Bears are

897
00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:46,600
Speaker 2: at the one and one Chiefs.

898
00:39:47,239 --> 00:39:50,239
Speaker 3: Wow, that could be one verse thirty two two day,

899
00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:51,120
Speaker 3: pretty dark close.

900
00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:54,680
Speaker 2: Then you have the night game. The Steelers at one

901
00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:56,439
Speaker 2: and one are at the Raiders one and one.

902
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,160
Speaker 3: I'm not sure the rest of the viewing publics the

903
00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:00,000
Speaker 3: world about that either.

904
00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:00,600
Speaker 2: Yeah.

905
00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:01,680
Speaker 3: Through the primetime game.

906
00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:05,080
Speaker 2: Uh, then Monday night once again two games scheduled on

907
00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:05,560
Speaker 2: Monday night.

908
00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:07,719
Speaker 3: At least it is not the Steelers I want watching two.

909
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:11,200
Speaker 2: So the seven to fifteen game, you have a pair

910
00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:15,319
Speaker 2: of unbeatens. The two and O Eagles are at the

911
00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:16,440
Speaker 2: two and O Buccaneers.

912
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:19,919
Speaker 3: Yeah. I'm sure the Bucks come back to town and back

913
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:23,399
Speaker 3: to like, you know, Earth, but if they hang around

914
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:26,279
Speaker 3: with the Eagles, I might be ready to boost them

915
00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:27,319
Speaker 3: in the power rings, you know what I mean.

916
00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:30,080
Speaker 2: Yeah. And then the eight to fifteen game, this one

917
00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 2: coming into play for the AFC North. You got the

918
00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:37,000
Speaker 2: one and one Rams at the zero to two Bengals.

919
00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:40,080
Speaker 3: I think that's the worst time to play the Rams.

920
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,319
Speaker 3: Like we always do this. You know, we did a

921
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:44,640
Speaker 3: schedule release show we've broken down the Steelers scheduled to

922
00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:48,120
Speaker 3: no end. You look at that game three weeks ago

923
00:40:48,239 --> 00:40:51,160
Speaker 3: and from the time the schedule came out, going great,

924
00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:52,760
Speaker 3: we got the Rams will take care of that.

925
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:57,279
Speaker 2: I'd be saying Cooper Cup gets hurt and oh piece

926
00:40:57,320 --> 00:40:57,600
Speaker 2: of cake.

927
00:40:57,719 --> 00:40:59,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would be scared to death on the Bengals neck.

928
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:04,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know how they block Aaron Donald and

929
00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:05,879
Speaker 2: Joe Burrow can't move right now.

930
00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:09,280
Speaker 3: Rams definitely have a quarterback advantage. I mean, you wouldn't

931
00:41:09,280 --> 00:41:11,160
Speaker 3: think that would have been the case when the central

932
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:13,560
Speaker 3: came out. I don't know if Borrow plays. Don't know

933
00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:15,040
Speaker 3: if he plays it is a Monday night or he

934
00:41:15,040 --> 00:41:15,759
Speaker 3: gets extra day.

935
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 2: Yeah. If you're looking to stream some defenses this week

936
00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:24,080
Speaker 2: in your DFS or fantasy that kind of stuff. Obviously,

937
00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:27,799
Speaker 2: the forty nine ers is really good. They're probably they'll

938
00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:33,960
Speaker 2: be expensive. What about the Ravens against the Colts. Yes,

939
00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:36,200
Speaker 2: on the Ravens if I'm not.

940
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:37,880
Speaker 3: Doing jumping jacks on that one. Yeah.

941
