1 00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:14,280 Speaker 1: Wow, Hey everybody, It's Monday, October twenty first, twenty twenty four. 2 00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:17,560 Speaker 1: Welcome to the NFL Fantasy Football Show, where we're wondering 3 00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:19,720 Speaker 1: if you could spare a healthy wide receiver to me. 4 00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:22,159 Speaker 1: Your man MG Marcus Grant, joined by Michael Florio and 5 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:24,919 Speaker 1: Lakwan Jones Fellows. 6 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:26,599 Speaker 2: At least two of you. At least you two. 7 00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:29,920 Speaker 1: Got to celebrate NFL wins, So congratulations on that. 8 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:31,560 Speaker 2: My team literally got smoke. 9 00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:33,760 Speaker 1: I think it might have just given up another weird 10 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:35,159 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes scramble. 11 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,600 Speaker 2: I don't absolutely love to see it. I'm sure you do. 12 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:41,360 Speaker 2: I'm sure you do. I mean Florida for you. 13 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:43,480 Speaker 1: I mean, it's not officially wrapped up, but it seems 14 00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:45,360 Speaker 1: like the division's kind of wrapped up for the Bills 15 00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:45,920 Speaker 1: right now. 16 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:46,560 Speaker 2: Yeah. 17 00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:48,320 Speaker 3: I would have traded it in for a Mets win, 18 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:53,440 Speaker 3: but Marcus and the Dodgers and all that. Yeah, the Mets, 19 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:55,720 Speaker 3: the Mets and Jets season kind of ended at the 20 00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 3: same point, and that leads to the Bills kind of 21 00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:01,800 Speaker 3: having the division wrapped up. But yeah, congrats, I guess 22 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 3: and all all that good stuff, you know. 23 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 1: What I mean, Like you all honestly like the Mets 24 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 1: had a great season. They they made the Dodgers sweat 25 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:11,320 Speaker 1: a little bit. I would tell you I woke up 26 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,040 Speaker 1: early on Sunday morning with a weird pit in my stomach, 27 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 1: was nervous, couldn't eat much, but happy. 28 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 2: You know, job's not. 29 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 1: Done, but we're moving on and at least gave me 30 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: something to wash that nasty forty nine Ers game out 31 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 1: of my mouth with, because that was that was awfulndous awful. 32 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:30,880 Speaker 1: We got a lot to talk about. We will have 33 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,679 Speaker 1: our biggest takeaways from Week seven. Still two more games 34 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 1: to go. We have a doubleheader on Monday night with 35 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 1: the Ravens and the Bucks, also the Chargers and the Cardinals, 36 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:40,959 Speaker 1: so two more games to finish out the week. 37 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 2: Will have some waiver wire stuff and we'll. 38 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 1: Start getting into our mid season awards because we have 39 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 1: hit the halfway points of the fantasy regular season. You know, 40 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: having seventeen games is sort of weird mathematically, but it 41 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: does mean fourteen weeks in the regular season. There's a 42 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 1: nice breaking point after Week seven there. But let's get started, 43 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 1: as we always do, with some fantasy headline. So it 44 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: was bad on the field for the forty nine Ers. 45 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 1: They got thumped by the Kansas City Chiefs in a 46 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 1: Super Bowl rematch. 47 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 2: It was bad on the field. It may be getting 48 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 2: even worse. Brandon Ayuk left the game. 49 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: Afterwards, Kyle Shanahan said they fear it is a torn 50 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:20,359 Speaker 1: acl Now, as of the time of us recording this show, 51 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 1: there is no confirmation on that. But that was not 52 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 1: a good looking injury to his lower leg. Ended up 53 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 1: being carted into the locker room, and it could be 54 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 1: that he is finished for the season. I'm I'm gonna 55 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,359 Speaker 1: ask this for Florio because I feel like Lakwan is 56 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: going to have too much voice, seriously, too much gleea. 57 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: So I'm not gonna ask you this question. But look, 58 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 1: we don't know when Christian McCaffrey is coming back. Auk 59 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 1: might be gone for the year. Deebo had an illness 60 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 1: apparently yesterday that kept him off the field. 61 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 2: Should we start to panic about this forty nine ers 62 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 2: offense for fantasy? 63 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 3: No, No, it stinks if you have Brandon Nyuk. It's 64 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 3: even worse if you know you invested in him early 65 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 3: in the summer when he was going as like a 66 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 3: borderline first round pick. But he has one big game 67 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 3: all year. Every other game less than fifty receiving yards. 68 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,640 Speaker 3: Kittle is still out there. Deebo is still out there 69 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 3: once he gets over this illness. We already know Juwan 70 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 3: Jennings could fill in nicely. They even got the rookies 71 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 3: involved a bit yesterday and Ricky Piersoll and Jacob Cowing. 72 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 2: So I'm not Patton. 73 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 3: Look, maybe the forty nine ers aren't going to be 74 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 3: what they were last season, which is when they kind 75 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 3: of gave us a league winner at every position, But 76 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 3: if you have those other pieces of the forty nine 77 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 3: ers offense, I'm not panicking or freaking out or anything 78 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 3: just yet. Brandon Nayuk, it was a down year from 79 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 3: the start. I hope for Speedie recovering and he's back 80 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 3: next season. But I think this hurts Brandon Ayuk managers 81 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 3: a lot more than it does the forty nine Ers 82 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 3: as a whole. 83 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: Well, we saw George Kittle still have a nice game 84 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: yesterday for Fantasy six catches for ninety two yards. You're right, 85 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: at some point, Deebo sam he was going to be 86 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: back and they're not going to be facing a Steve 87 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: Spagnolo defense every week. I will say that as a fan, 88 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 1: I had a bad feeling about this. When Steve Spagnolo 89 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: during the week was super complimentary of Brock Purdy and 90 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 1: out here saying like, oh, he has no weaknesses, That 91 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 1: to me was the epitome of the enemy speaks softly 92 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: and carries a knife like Spags with some sort of 93 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:23,719 Speaker 1: wide receiver or something out here. So maybe the result 94 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 1: was not super surprising when it was all said and done. 95 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: Over to Cleveland, where Deshaun Watson left the game with 96 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 1: a non contact injury. It has been confirmed that he 97 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 1: has torn his achilles. He will have surgery. His season 98 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:39,719 Speaker 1: is over. 99 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 2: Mcwan. We did see Nick Chubb come. 100 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 1: Back and he got back in them zone and that 101 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,159 Speaker 1: was really great, really fun to see. We saw Cedric 102 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,040 Speaker 1: Tillman step in and have a nice game for fantasy, 103 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 1: But I mean, are we believing in Tillman? Is there 104 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,799 Speaker 1: anybody there that you still count on besides Nick Chubb? 105 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 4: Cedric Tillman is a nice WI replacement at Ormari Cooper 106 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 4: will shift off the Buffalo. But David Nijok, who's really 107 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,479 Speaker 4: the only pass catcher we can put our hat on 108 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 4: to say, yeah, we could put him in starting lineups 109 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 4: and he might put some type of product out there. 110 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,279 Speaker 4: But when you look at Jerry Judy, it just feels 111 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,799 Speaker 4: like he's checked out of his frustrations. They're gone through, 112 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 4: you know, multiple quarterbacks right now, you know, with DTR 113 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 4: and Jameson Winston, Like who knows, you know, moving forward, 114 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 4: if Jerry Judy is going to be valuable. But when 115 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 4: you look at David Nijoku, he's the only one getting 116 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:30,479 Speaker 4: this offense any type of spark to be able to 117 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 4: go downfield and create some scoring opportunities. He's a big 118 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,159 Speaker 4: body target, so therefore, if it's DTR, if it's Winston, 119 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 4: they'll be able to check out him in the end zone. 120 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 4: So I definitely feel as though, like I could only 121 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 4: trust David Najoku moving forward, and that kind of puts 122 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 4: Superman Nick Chubb in that because he had that touchdown. 123 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 4: But before that, the production was really nasty for fantasy. 124 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, very interested to see what the quarterback plan is 125 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: going to be. H I know yesterday people were saying 126 00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 1: it looks like it could be DTR. But he also 127 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,279 Speaker 1: suffed a finger injury, which is why you saw Jamis 128 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 1: Winston get in late in the game, actually led them 129 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: to a touchdown right near the end of that game. 130 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: So I think it should be Jamis. I think a 131 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 1: lot of people feel like it should be Jamis. We'll 132 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 1: see what this what direction Kevin Stefanski's I mean, look, 133 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 1: Jamis was made inactive. He came in because he was 134 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 1: the emergency quarterback on Sunday. 135 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 3: The irony of them demoting him because fans were cheering 136 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 3: his name in games, and that's the only Browns quarterback 137 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 3: that throws a touchdown. 138 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,680 Speaker 2: Crazy, I mean, Brown's gonna brown. That's a pretty much 139 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 2: still ball man. I don't know why people doubt him. 140 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 2: He could still ball. Put him out there. 141 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:38,720 Speaker 1: If nothing else, I think he just gives you more 142 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: hope in that offense, and they've had all year long, 143 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: So I don't know why you wouldn't give him a shot. 144 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 2: But we'll see what. 145 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 1: We'll see what directions the fancy and the Browns decide 146 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 1: to go in. 147 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 2: Let's take a look at some of the week's top scores. 148 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 1: Everybody howled when the Steelers were making a quarterback change, 149 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 1: but Russell Wilson gave you almost twenty five fantasy points, 150 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: a parent passing touchdowns, a rush touchdown as well. Jamiir 151 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,839 Speaker 1: Gibbs doing jamiro Gibbs things one hundred and sixteen rushing 152 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: yards and two touchdowns, four catches for forty four yards 153 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 1: thirty two points for him. 154 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 2: I'm on Ross Saint Brown. 155 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: It was Sonny in Minneapolis and the sun God showed 156 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 1: out twenty five point two points, eight catches, one hundred 157 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 1: and twelve yards in a touchdown. 158 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 2: David Joku, we just talked about him. 159 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: Sint Jexes for seventy six and a score that's good 160 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: for twenty three points six. Will Lutts made four field 161 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: goals and three extra points for the Broncos seventeen points there. 162 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 1: And the Broncos defense going back to Thursday night, just 163 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 1: obliterating the Saints. They scored a twenty eight fantasy points there. 164 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 1: Let's get to our biggest takeaways though from Week seven. Lakwan, 165 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: what did you see that you think we can build 166 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: on going forward? 167 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 4: Looking at the Titans offense, I mean, I honestly feel 168 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 4: that Mason Rudolph gives the pass catchers the best chance 169 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 4: to be fantasy relevant. I mean, you avoid some of 170 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 4: the bonehead mistakes, the turnovers, and plus he you could 171 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 4: take the veteran approach here with Mason rudolp he has 172 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 4: a lot of football behind him. So therefore, moving forward, 173 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 4: there's guys that you see like Chicaquo the tight end 174 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 4: over there, or you even see the reverb the revive 175 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 4: of Calvin Ridley. But more so, he's not going to 176 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 4: be turning the ball over as frequent on the Titans offense, 177 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 4: and he's also converting on third down. He's throwing the 178 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 4: ball away. He's not trying to play hero ball. But 179 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 4: it's a matter of trying to figure out moving forward, 180 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 4: do we put Will Levis back in there, or which 181 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 4: fantasy pass catcher could we honestly trust, you know, week 182 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 4: to week. But that's soon to be told, you know, 183 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 4: moving forward. But I think Mason Rudolph just gives this 184 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 4: offense a spark that they desperately needed. 185 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: It's definitely a style change, right because Will Levis is 186 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 1: good to throw yolo balls, which sometimes leads to hilarity 187 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: thanks and sometimes it leads to some hilarious outcomes. Mason 188 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: Ruolph's is very much going to be conservative. He's going 189 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,319 Speaker 1: to check down. It was why when I like Tony 190 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,559 Speaker 1: Pollard going into the week anyway, it was a reason 191 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: I got really excited about Tony Pollard in that opportunity, 192 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: even though you know he didn't really happen. 193 00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 2: It was just a game for Pollard. 194 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:01,360 Speaker 1: So I almost say, now will Levis, they're saying week 195 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: to week with that shoulder injury, So we'll see what 196 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 1: happens coming up in Week eight, Florida. 197 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 2: What did you learn from this week? 198 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 3: Mason Rudolph doesn't seem like a conservative guy to me. 199 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 3: I learned that George Pickens is the breakout I think 200 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 3: is coming here. And this is something that I doubted 201 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 3: him this week because of the matchup, and that was wrong. 202 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 3: But coming into the season, I was like, I want 203 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 3: George Pickens on my fantasy teams, and it was because 204 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 3: we thought Russell Wilson would be the quarterback. Last week 205 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:36,319 Speaker 3: Week nine, second most targets, second most yards, his first touchdown. 206 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 3: It was his best passer rating when targeted air yards. 207 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:41,839 Speaker 3: But I went back this morning and I watched all 208 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 3: of his deep targets from this season. The difference is 209 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 3: that Russell Wilson will just put more air under it. 210 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 3: It's not like Russell Wilson went out and balled out 211 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,040 Speaker 3: on those deep balls or anything like that. Like one 212 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 3: of them hit the Jets defender. First, another one, George 213 00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:01,959 Speaker 3: Pickens made a phenomenal side line grab. The difference though, 214 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 3: is like Justin Fields puts a lot of velocity and 215 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 3: it's more of a line drive, and it's harder for 216 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 3: Pickens to make those adjustments in air or something like that, 217 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 3: whereas Wilson is like, yeah, I might underthrow it, but 218 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,439 Speaker 3: I'm gonna give you a chance where you could legitimately 219 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 3: come to a full stop potentially and just go up 220 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 3: like it's a rebound in basketball and in one on ones. 221 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,079 Speaker 3: In those situations, I do think George Pickens will win 222 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,440 Speaker 3: more often than not. So maybe still a little bit 223 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,079 Speaker 3: boom or bust, but the arrow is certainly pointing up 224 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 3: for George Pickens right now. 225 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 1: Which again it sort of brings us back to where 226 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:37,079 Speaker 1: we were, say in August, when we were drafting Steelers, 227 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,079 Speaker 1: it was with the idea that Russell Wilson was going 228 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 1: to be the starter and he was going to elevate 229 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: all those pass catchers. Yes, we like Justin Fields and 230 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 1: we assumed he was going to play, but we also 231 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 1: I think sort of knew that Justin Fields was going 232 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 1: to be good for the Justin Fields managers and maybe 233 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:54,320 Speaker 1: not for anybody else who was invested in the Steelers offense. 234 00:10:55,000 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 1: Speaking of quarterbacks in Kansas City, Patrick Mahomes isn't a thing. 235 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: But Kareem Hunt is watching that game yesterday between the 236 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:07,199 Speaker 1: Chiefs and the forty nine, or they understand with the 237 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:10,199 Speaker 1: Niners secondary had a really good game, but it was 238 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:15,599 Speaker 1: another week where Patrick Mahomes struggled to generate anything offensively. 239 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 1: Finished the day with one hundred and fifty four passing yards, 240 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: two interceptions, no touchdowns. Another game where Patrick Mahomes gave 241 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 1: you less than fourteen fantasy points. 242 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 2: It's been a struggle for him. 243 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:34,320 Speaker 1: In fact, he has not reached seventeen fantasy points in 244 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: a game this season. They aren't able to get the 245 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 1: ball downfield really to any of their wide receivers. Noah 246 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 1: Gray was the leading pass catcher for the Chiefs on Sunday, 247 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:48,199 Speaker 1: and now Jujus Smith Schuster has he left with a 248 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: hamstring injury. He's already been ruled out for this week's game. 249 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 1: So what little they had to help catch the football 250 00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: not going to be there. In the meantime, Preem Hunts 251 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 1: had a couple of nice games, back to back rushing 252 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 1: touchdowns against the forty nine ers on Sunday went for 253 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: over one hundred yards in a score of the week before. 254 00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,319 Speaker 1: Curious to see what happens if we see more Sama J. P. 255 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 3: Ryan. 256 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 2: We'll see if Clyde Edwards Laire is able to get 257 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 2: back in there. 258 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 1: But for now, very much the Kareem Hunt Show, which 259 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 1: in the year our Fantasy Football Lord twenty twenty four, 260 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: I did not think I would be saying out loud, 261 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 1: there we are. We as I mentioned, are hitting the 262 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:25,719 Speaker 1: midway point of the fantasy regular season. Felt like it's 263 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 1: a good time to give out some awards, so we 264 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 1: will start. Because I've learned my lesson fellas, I'm not 265 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 1: going to end the show with the downer award well 266 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 1: and with a positive award, so right now we'll do 267 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 1: the downer. And that's the biggest disappointment. So lakwan for 268 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 1: the first seven weeks of the season, who has broken 269 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:41,720 Speaker 1: your heart? 270 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 4: Don't kinkaid man Floria. I don't know if you got 271 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 4: to get on the phone over there to see what's 272 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 4: going on to get hit the ball more. But it's 273 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,680 Speaker 4: more so a disappointment and the halfway mark based on 274 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 4: a mixed bag of why we're disappointed. It's like the 275 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 4: cost that we pay for him in drafts. We know 276 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 4: he's uber talented, he's getting the vine, but he's just 277 00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 4: not getting the yards. He's not getting the touchdowns. Like 278 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 4: we know this dude could be the focal point of 279 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,440 Speaker 4: this Bill's offense, even though we understand they have this 280 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 4: new identity as a low pass volume offense. Josh Allen 281 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 4: still doing Josh Allen things, but it's like it's not 282 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 4: happening for Dunk and Kate on the week to week basis, 283 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:16,679 Speaker 4: And it's like you probably missed out on some tight 284 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,079 Speaker 4: end opportunities to trade them, but again, tight ends were 285 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 4: down bad in the fantasy streets, so there's really no 286 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 4: way you could probably get that trade off to begin with. 287 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,560 Speaker 4: But you're not going to bench him because again he's 288 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 4: getting the Viume. I can't see myself benching a tight 289 00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:31,960 Speaker 4: end that's getting twenty percent of the target share. So 290 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 4: you're just kind of just stuck with him. You're just 291 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 4: sitting with him. But there is hope. Back to back 292 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 4: weeks he did have season highs of receiving yards, so 293 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 4: hopefully he could build on that in the back end 294 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 4: of the season. But yeah, real nasty work right here. 295 00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: I think it's interesting, and you know, Florda, you might 296 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:46,959 Speaker 1: be able to speak to this a little bit more. 297 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:49,959 Speaker 1: Last year they funneled a lot of those targets through 298 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 1: just a couple of guys. It was Stefan Diggs and 299 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 1: Dalton Kink. This year feels like Josh Allen spreading the 300 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 1: ball out a little bit more. 301 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think part of it is that we overestimated 302 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 3: that Kincaid can be team's number one. I'm not sure 303 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 3: he can be, but I think Amari Cooper is gonna 304 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,319 Speaker 3: open up so much for everything else. Teams going against 305 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 3: the Bills are like, if we take out the middle 306 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 3: short middle of the field where Kate and Shakir operate, well, 307 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 3: we can stop this Bill's passing attack. That all changes 308 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 3: once you incorporate Amari Cooper more into the offense. 309 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:20,400 Speaker 1: I think, at least all right, keep it going, though, 310 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 1: Who is your disappointment so far? 311 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 3: Team wide award to the only undefeated TEAMFL. 312 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 2: I know their. 313 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 3: Fans aren't disappointed right now, but if you like Marcus, 314 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 3: you just touched on Mahomes perfectly, Like bo Nicks has 315 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 3: more Fantasy points than he does right, Like that's where 316 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 3: we're at. 317 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 2: Daniel Jones has more. 318 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 3: Fantasy points than Patrick Mahomes right now, Travis Kelcey is 319 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 3: averaging less than nine fantasy points per game forty one 320 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 3: yards per game. He does not have a touchdown. The 321 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 3: two Chiefs that I think we could have really relied upon, 322 00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 3: in Isaiah Pacheco and she Rice. 323 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 2: They're gone. 324 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 3: We don't know when, if at all, either one of them, 325 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 3: and add Marquise Brown to that, if they're coming back, 326 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 3: but then Xavier Worthy's been insanely boom er bus. There's 327 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 3: no Chiefs wad receiver you could start with any sort 328 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 3: of confidence right now. Travis Kelsey's disappointing, Patrick Mahomes is disappointing. 329 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 3: Kareem Hunt is their best fantasy asset right now outside 330 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 3: of their defense. That is how far we have fallen 331 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 3: with the Mighty Chiefs offense look best team in the league, 332 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 3: super Bowl favorites, probably gonna win their third in a row. 333 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 3: I get all of that, but for fantasy this team 334 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 3: is a nightmare. It is abysmal, and if you covered 335 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 3: up their names, they'd all be on the waiver wire. 336 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 2: Outside of Freaki, no. 337 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 1: Percent, And people have asking me I'm sure they're getting 338 00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 1: the questions too, can you drop Patrick Mahomes And at 339 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 1: this point I think the answer is absolutely yes, because 340 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:53,479 Speaker 1: he's just the name pretty much at this point. 341 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 2: Or trade not for me. My big disappointment is Sam Laporta. 342 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: And I mean this is a guy that was going 343 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 1: off the board as the first side end in pretty 344 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 1: much every fantasy league, or at least the vast majority of. 345 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 2: Them, and scrolling, scrolling, scrolling. 346 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 1: Right now he is the tight end nineteen and that 347 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: might be even higher than you would have thought for 348 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 1: a guy like Sam laport just one game with double 349 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 1: digit fantasy points, just one touchdown, has not had sixty 350 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 1: receiving yards yet in a game. 351 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 2: Sure we thought Jamison Williams is going to make an impact, 352 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:25,240 Speaker 2: I don't. 353 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 1: Think we thought it was going to be this impactful 354 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 1: what he has done both for the Lions and what 355 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 1: he has done to Sam Laporta. It's getting harder and 356 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 1: harder to start him every week, even in a year 357 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 1: where tight end production is down. Sam laporter really has 358 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:41,120 Speaker 1: just been one of the major disappointments. And with the 359 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 1: Lions playing well and Jamison Williams playing well, I don't 360 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 1: see it changing any time soon, all right, So those 361 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 1: are disappointments. We will get to the Happier Award coming 362 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 1: up after the break. We'll also have the waiver Wire 363 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 1: stick around for more of the NFL Fantasy Football Show. 364 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 1: Let's take a look at this week's waiver wire options. Floyda. 365 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 2: Who should we be looking at this week? 366 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 3: It's a good quarterback week if you need one. Sam Darnold. 367 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 3: I don't know why he's still available in over forty 368 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 3: percent of leagues. Drake May has been bawling out since 369 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,639 Speaker 3: he got the starter. Gig Tua Tongue of Iloa is 370 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 3: set to return to practice with the hopes of returning 371 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 3: to games this week, and then Jamis Winston. They said, 372 00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 3: dtr not sure if he will be able to play 373 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 3: or not in this upcoming week. Tyrone Tracy Junior was 374 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 3: still the lead back even with Devin singletary back. Tank 375 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:34,040 Speaker 3: Bigsby just continues to run so well that he needs 376 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 3: to be added right now. Ray Davis a lot of 377 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 3: it came late, but he still has played really well 378 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:42,439 Speaker 3: these last two games. Alexander Madison remained the lead runner 379 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 3: even with Zamir White returning. Tyler Algier is one injury 380 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 3: away from being an every week must start. Plus he's 381 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 3: kind of got owned standalone value and Daranis Johnson is 382 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:55,919 Speaker 3: the past catching back as long as Travis Etn is sidelined, 383 00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 3: then a couple of packers Romeo Dobbs and Dontavian Wicks. 384 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:04,480 Speaker 3: You want pieces of packers passing attack. Ricky Piersoll him 385 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 3: and Jawan Jennings are going to have to step up 386 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,960 Speaker 3: for the forty nine Ers now, Trey Tucker, someone's gonna 387 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 3: have to get volume there for the Raiders too to 388 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 3: at well, getting a lot of volume with the big 389 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 3: guys sidelined Alec Pierce, Damario Douglas, don't overlook what he 390 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,879 Speaker 3: has done with Drake may Hunter Henry especially, do not 391 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 3: overlook what he did in London this past week. And 392 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 3: then a couple of deeper tight ends Lakwan's boy, John 393 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:32,240 Speaker 3: new Smith and Sanders is getting volume from Andy Dalton 394 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 3: in the Panthers offense. 395 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:40,119 Speaker 1: Hey, team, that's right, Bucky Roggs way back, but as well, Laquid. 396 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,440 Speaker 1: If you are you know, if you're spending a bunch 397 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 1: of fab or you got your top waiver priority, who are. 398 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 2: You looking at this week? From that list? 399 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 4: There's a lot of guys. Drake May honestly is that 400 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,440 Speaker 4: top priority at the quarterback position for me, just based 401 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:53,680 Speaker 4: on how he's been playing back to back games when 402 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 4: nineteen and twenty fans, he points he's playing better than 403 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 4: Patrick Mahomes right now, and that sounds crazy to say 404 00:18:59,359 --> 00:18:59,959 Speaker 4: for a rookie. 405 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:01,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, no doubt. 406 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:03,680 Speaker 1: All right, let's get to some more awards as we 407 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:07,480 Speaker 1: get to our mid season Fantasy awards. Most Valuable Player 408 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 1: I said be ended on a little bit of a 409 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 1: happier note there. So who is your MVP at this point, 410 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:13,439 Speaker 1: lakwan Joe Mixon. 411 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 4: I mean he's shown up and showed out in every 412 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 4: game he's played full, twenty six plus Fantasy points in 413 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:21,880 Speaker 4: every game he's played in a full and I cannot 414 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 4: be more happier for him because he makes this Texans 415 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 4: offense still dangerous even without their top playmaker in Nico Collins. 416 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,679 Speaker 4: Just look at how he's moving right now. This is 417 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 4: the quickest and the fastest we've probably seen Joe Mixon 418 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 4: play like. He just looks like a completely revised running 419 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:40,920 Speaker 4: back right now. I mean, he's playing great. This is 420 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 4: the best start he's had fantasy wise in his career, 421 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,720 Speaker 4: so hopefully he keeps it going because he's definitely looking 422 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 4: like a top three running back this season all ranks. 423 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 1: So we got a veteran running back for one MVP 424 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 1: candidate Florida. Who is your most valuable player? Jaden Daniels 425 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:58,440 Speaker 1: And it would have been so much. 426 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:00,679 Speaker 3: Sweeter had he not got hurt and I could come 427 00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 3: out here and say he was the fantasy QB one. 428 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,399 Speaker 3: He is the fantasy QB two right now, behind only 429 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson. But if you have Jaden Daniels, you did 430 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 3: not pay that Lamar Jackson price. You didn't pay the 431 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:17,680 Speaker 3: Anthony Richardson price or the Kyler Murray price. You waited 432 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:21,880 Speaker 3: and got him probably as a borderline QB one, maybe 433 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 3: even some of you took him as your second quarterback. 434 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 3: Now he is an every week must start, gonna win 435 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 3: Rookie of the Year, it looks like, and every week 436 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 3: he just continues to amaze. Doesn't matter the matchup, nothing, 437 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 3: He is getting the most out of this offense. And 438 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 3: just please be okay, Jade, and my fantasy team really 439 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 3: need you with the Commanders really need you and all 440 00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 3: of that. But yeah, getting a QB the potential QB 441 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:50,639 Speaker 3: one at around like nine price that that puts him 442 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 3: in the running for MVP. 443 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,120 Speaker 1: I think, you know, and it's funny because you talk about, 444 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:55,800 Speaker 1: you know, you didn't pay the Lamar Jackson price. But 445 00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:57,400 Speaker 1: I'm seeing a lot of people and it's not really 446 00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:00,360 Speaker 1: a surprise who both who had both Lamar Jackson and 447 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 1: Jayden Daniels Because you could go early and get Lamar 448 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:04,879 Speaker 1: and maybe if you wanted to just sort of, you know, 449 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:07,200 Speaker 1: kick the tires, you could get Daniels a little bit later. 450 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 1: And so now a lot of people sort of have 451 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:10,640 Speaker 1: this weekly dilemma of who do I start in which 452 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,000 Speaker 1: case I might trade one of them, probably trade Jason, 453 00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 1: try Daniels, but trade one of them for sure, because 454 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:17,119 Speaker 1: you don't want this headache every single week. 455 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:18,400 Speaker 2: My MVP. 456 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 1: Going back to the veteran running back, well, Dereck Henry, 457 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 1: who we all. 458 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 2: Wanted this to happen. We all wanted him in Baltimore. 459 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,959 Speaker 1: We got our wish, and usually when we do, it 460 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 1: goes sideways on us. 461 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 2: This has not been the case. 462 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,639 Speaker 1: You see that the twenty two point six Fantasy points 463 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 1: per game so far this season, he has scored at 464 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 1: least one touchdown in every single one of the Ravens games. 465 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: Of course, he plays on Monday Night against the Buccaneers 466 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 1: will try to keep that streak going. But as good 467 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:50,160 Speaker 1: as he has been so far this year and right 468 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:52,880 Speaker 1: now he leads the NFL and rushing yards. The thing 469 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,159 Speaker 1: we know about Derek Henry is that he gets better 470 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,199 Speaker 1: later in the season. When the weather gets colder in 471 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:02,400 Speaker 1: November in December, he gets tougher because you have dbs 472 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 1: making business decisions. When they see El Tractorcido coming around 473 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:07,679 Speaker 1: the corner with the football, you see him with one 474 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 1: of those nasty, vicious stiff arms that turns into a 475 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 1: meme at some point later on in the season. Derrick 476 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,919 Speaker 1: Henry has been everything we wanted him to be, and 477 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 1: somehow I feel like he hasn't even reached the ceiling yet. 478 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:23,199 Speaker 1: Eight rushing touchdowns, one receiving touchdown. We talked about him 479 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:25,959 Speaker 1: maybe reaching twenty. That is very much still in the 480 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 1: cards for Derrick Henry in twenty twenty four. 481 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 2: There you go. 482 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 1: So those are all the players that we are loving 483 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:34,880 Speaker 1: through the first seven weeks of the season. Now let's 484 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,360 Speaker 1: talk about one of our favorite moments from the past week. 485 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: And as we were scouring the interwebs to find a 486 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 1: moment we loved this season. Turns out it takes place 487 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:47,440 Speaker 1: with Mike Florio's Buffalo Bills, where the rookie steps in 488 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 1: actually help the veteran Keon Coleman kind of explaining what 489 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:52,960 Speaker 1: he was doing by kind of pointing some things out 490 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,240 Speaker 1: to Amari Cooper. You tell him what to do on 491 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 1: the touchdown on his touchdown, n man, cause you know 492 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 1: the play.
