Speaker 1: I have a guarantee for the listeners. I guarantee we

Speaker 1: will be more entertaining than Russell Wilson playing football that

13
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 1: goes without saying Holy cow. Maybe we'll get into a

14
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 1: little a little discussion about the travesty that is the

15
00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:01,240
Speaker 1: Denver Broncos right now, booed by the our own fans

16
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 1: vocimperously throughout the game. And I don't think I've ever

17
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 1: seen fans leave and mass heading into overtime for the

18
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,760
Speaker 1: you know, it's the coin flip for overtime of the

19
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 1: fans roll leaving oh Man. Good for the fans of

20
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:19,119
Speaker 1: them in Denver. Plenty to get to over the course

21
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:20,760
Speaker 1: of the show. Will have take a chance on me.

22
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 1: We'll do our three tough questions while premature speculation, and

23
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 1: we will break down all fifteen remaining games from the

24
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: NFL slate, beginning with another of the the tricky early

25
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 1: start games. Be sure to set your lineups. Giants taking

26
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 1: on Packers. Yes, I'm excited for it, and I'm very

27
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 1: happy Collin's not here. My understanding on Colin is um arrested. Arrested. Yeah, now,

28
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 1: you saw um in in London during the Viking game.

29
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:57,120
Speaker 1: You may have seen that nude streaker. Uh that that

30
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 1: had to eventually security had to get Colin mccockney. Interesting.

31
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: At least he wasn't the uh, at least he wasn't

32
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 1: the one in the Rams games knocked out by Bob Wagner.

33
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,680
Speaker 1: The Giants pass game is on the bench. How's that stuff?

34
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 1: Very good? Start the whole pass game, Richie Richie, James,

35
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 1: David Sills, Daniel Bellinger who I do like, but like

36
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,799
Speaker 1: three catches for thirty forty yards isn't doing you much? Um,

37
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 1: it's a Packers d that's top twelve against quarterbacks, wide receivers,

38
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 1: and tight ends. Daniel Jones, he got you the two

39
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 1: Russian touchdowns last week, probably on your bench or on

40
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:34,639
Speaker 1: your waiver wire. He probably didn't get it correct that

41
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 1: for you. But he hasn't top two hundred yards all season.

42
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,799
Speaker 1: It's Darius Tony has two hamstring injuries. They're all on

43
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:46,200
Speaker 1: the bench. Barkley, though, it's it's an automatic, am, it

44
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 1: just is. He's the best. He's the best fantasy running

45
00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: back in football right now, and the QB position is rough. Um.

46
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 1: Barkley actually ended up playing extra snaps the most snaps

47
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 1: and touches he's ever played in a single game in

48
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:01,959
Speaker 1: his career last week. Uh, and he was playing. He

49
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 1: was playing snaps at quarterback with Daniel Jones Taylor out. Yes, yeah,

50
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 1: he took a lot of Wildcats snaps near the end

51
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 1: of that game. Anyway, Let's move over to the Packers side,

52
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,760
Speaker 1: because there's players that actually matter on this side. Um,

53
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: not that Parkley doesn't matter, but he's the Aaron Rodgers

54
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: I have a B grade on since his second annual

55
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 1: Week one dismantling. Yes, Rogers has throwne for two d

56
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 1: thirty two five yards in every game and two scores

57
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 1: in every game, So that's a pretty safe B floor

58
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 1: is is what he's been doing. The Giants pasty is

59
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 1: top ten, but they have not really faced any startable quarterbacks.

60
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 1: I guess the closest they faced was tannehill id And

61
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 1: who went for two hundred and sixty six and a

62
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 1: couple of scores. So I'd expect Rogers to lean towards

63
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,520
Speaker 1: his averages, if not a little better. Gotta be grade

64
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 1: there on him. Um Romeo Dubbs and Alana's Ard. I

65
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 1: have B grades on both of them. I just do.

66
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 1: I like, I don't think you can talk me into

67
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: an A grade, and it's possib but one of them

68
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 1: hits the A and one of them hits the B.

69
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 1: But I'm giving him both bees with some upside there.

70
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 1: The Giants haven't truly been tested, as I mentioned with

71
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks, but even Darnell Mooney, who hadn't done anything

72
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: all year, found ninety four yards against them, and Steedee

73
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: Lamb the week before at eighty seven and scores. The

74
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 1: lead receiver Dubson Lazard have both been playing of the snaps.

75
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 1: They both very clearly have Rogers trust, both in Rogers

76
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,720
Speaker 1: speak and in his play um. He has targeted those

77
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:30,160
Speaker 1: two about fifty of his passes, so if he throws thirty,

78
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 1: we're talking fifteen targets and that's probably low end thirty

79
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:39,160
Speaker 1: pass attempts for Aaron Rodgers. Um over to Robert Tonyan.

80
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,280
Speaker 1: I do have him on the bench, not even playing

81
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 1: half the snaps. You almost need the touchdown, which is

82
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,480
Speaker 1: tough to count on with Rogers. Now that once they

83
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 1: get inside the red zone and especially inside the five

84
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,279
Speaker 1: and ten, it's a pretty even split between run and pass,

85
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:56,120
Speaker 1: whereas last year with it was all passed. So now

86
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: they're going half and half and Tonnan is not seen

87
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,920
Speaker 1: that kind of touched on volume. Giants haven't allowed a

88
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 1: tight end touchdown this year, and tight ends are averaging

89
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 1: under forty yards per game. Yes, sit Tony over to

90
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,920
Speaker 1: the running backs. Aaron Jones, I got an A grade

91
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,280
Speaker 1: on A J. Dylan, I have a B grade on

92
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 1: The Giants are getting tagged weekly by running backs McCaffrey, Herbert,

93
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 1: the Dallas and Titans duos, so we're just say the

94
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 1: Titans duo. It's not really a duo. But you know,

95
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 1: Dontrell Hilliard had two touchdowns against them and did a

96
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 1: bunch through the air in week one. But to the

97
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:33,360
Speaker 1: tune of fifty yards per game. Dylan has both carries

98
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 1: inside the five. Jones gets the targets, which I honestly

99
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,480
Speaker 1: didn't see coming. But they're splitting the snaps pretty evenly.

100
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 1: But given one gets touchdown carries and one gets targets,

101
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 1: I got them both. I got them both with A

102
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 1: and B grades. Here Aaron Jones six point eight yards

103
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,280
Speaker 1: per carry to Dylan's three point seven. That's something to

104
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:56,160
Speaker 1: keep an eye on. Yeah, that's why Jones is getting Yeah,

105
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 1: he's getting a grade there. Dylan the B though, don't

106
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 1: don't stick. It still gets to be in this matchup.

107
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 1: The Lions, Brian, have got all kinds of injuries. We uh,

108
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: we know for sure that dj Hark is out, DeAndre

109
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:11,919
Speaker 1: Swift is out, uh, Josh Reynolds probably playing, but questionable.

110
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 1: I'm on Ross st. Brown game time decision. Help me

111
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: make heads or tails out of Lions when they take

112
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,479
Speaker 1: on the Patriots. All right over to the Patriots side,

113
00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 1: and I'm just alright, start with long gone or the

114
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 1: days or is just like you're benching the Lions. Even

115
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,600
Speaker 1: when they're healthy, it's quite the opposite scoring team in

116
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,680
Speaker 1: the NFL. Well, we'll start with thanks to their awful defense,

117
00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:35,720
Speaker 1: it's not the perfect store and for fantasy. But once

118
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 1: they get healthy, once what James and Williams gets back,

119
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:42,400
Speaker 1: Oh my lord, this offense can think about that. Well,

120
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 1: we know Jamal Williams is gonna play, and I gonna

121
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,280
Speaker 1: give him a B. Should be in line for another

122
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 1: Bill Cout workload. Even when Swift was healthy, Williams was

123
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 1: the guy at the goal line for Detroit. He now

124
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 1: leads all running backs in the NFL and carries inside

125
00:06:54,400 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 1: the five yard line. He's done it nine times. She

126
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:04,279
Speaker 1: is but be more and the Pats are set stout

127
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 1: against the run. Green Bay ran all over them last week,

128
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 1: but that game went to the bitter end of overtime,

129
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 1: so they played five quarters before that, and no other

130
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 1: opposing back as top sixty yards rushing against the Patriots

131
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: in New England has yet to surrender a running back

132
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 1: touchdown through the ground or air. So just the B

133
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 1: for Williams. But he should see a lot of volume

134
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 1: in this one. As you said, d J. Chark is

135
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:28,119
Speaker 1: out We're gonna go with Josh Reynolds likely to play.

136
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 1: I'm on Ross Brown true game time decision. If if

137
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 1: if some God plays, I'm gonna give him a b

138
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 1: um and a C either way for Josh Reynolds. It's

139
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 1: kind of like Ronalds more than you do. But go ahead. Uh,

140
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 1: it's it's it's a neutral. I'll give Reynolds to be

141
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 1: if if st. Brown's out. Actually, but if st. Brown's in,

142
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 1: C for Reynolds, B for Brown, it's basically a neutral

143
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 1: matchup for wide receivers. The Patriots are allowing eleven catches

144
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 1: and almost a hundred and fifty yards per game to

145
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 1: wide receivers. Those aren't great numbers as a whole to

146
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 1: opposing wide receiver units, but they have surrendered exactly one

147
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 1: wide receiver touchdown in three or four games. If Alman

148
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 1: Ross Brown is out, I think Tom Kennedy is kind

149
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 1: of interesting as also out. Yeah, and you may have

150
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 1: to go to Tom Kennedy. And then there's Cliff for Raymond.

151
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 1: But Kennedy had the better game last week, So I'll

152
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,520
Speaker 1: go with Tom Kennedy. So easy to see Dart if

153
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 1: uh some God is out, Um, we know teaching Cockinson

154
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 1: there it is is not out, and he's not on

155
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 1: the bench this week. Hopefully it wasn't on your bench

156
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 1: last week, probably the biggest game in all fantasy football.

157
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 1: Gonna give him an a here because the Patriots up

158
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 1: rendered five tight end touchdowns, the most in the league.

159
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,199
Speaker 1: And lastly, Jared Goff can give him a ce. This

160
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 1: week's matchup with the Pats likely as tough as to date.

161
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 1: We prefer if Alman ross A Brown plays. If he doesn't,

162
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,680
Speaker 1: he still gotta roll Goff out there, just because New

163
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:47,559
Speaker 1: England gives up a ton of points and it's forced

164
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:51,679
Speaker 1: to throw all the time. So New England not the

165
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 1: greatest matchup, but the c for Goff. And now over

166
00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 1: to the Patriots side, starting with their running backs. Damien Harris,

167
00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:00,160
Speaker 1: Gonna give him an a uh just across the boar.

168
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 1: Detroit's defense sucks, so there's gonna be some startable Patriots

169
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 1: this week. On Like past weeks, the lines have allowed

170
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 1: the fourth most rushing yards and the most rushing touchdowns

171
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 1: to running backs. Harris has scored in three or four

172
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: games this year and has eighteen touchdowns over his last

173
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 1: nineteen games dating back to last year's with the A

174
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 1: for Harris and uh B for Mondre Stevenson. The matchup

175
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 1: obviously just as good for Stevenson, who saw fourteen carries

176
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 1: last week to the eight team from Harris, but Stevens

177
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 1: Stevenson saw five targets to the one for Harris. Opponent

178
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 1: opposing running backs have caught at least four passes against

179
00:09:33,679 --> 00:09:36,439
Speaker 1: the Lions and three of four games. Now did the

180
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,839
Speaker 1: Patriots wide receivers will start with who I guess is

181
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: their alpha. Number one wide receiver, Davante Parker scored a

182
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 1: touchdown last week at Green Bay. The week before that,

183
00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 1: he had five catches for a hundred and fifty six

184
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 1: yards against the Ravens. The lines are allowing fourteen catches

185
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 1: for a hundred and ninety five yards and one touchdown

186
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 1: per game to a post in wide out, Parker is startable,

187
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:01,199
Speaker 1: even with the quarterback situation, which we'll get to in

188
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:03,839
Speaker 1: a minute. Now, there's there's some more murkiness for the

189
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 1: wide receivers with New England. Jacoby Myers has missed the

190
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 1: last couple of games. If he plays, I would give

191
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 1: him a sea, But if he's out, I think Nelson

192
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,120
Speaker 1: Aglare is the C Dart for the Patriots just against

193
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 1: this awful Lion secondary. So that's time you break that

194
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,559
Speaker 1: situation down. And uh not at Sea Dart, but just

195
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 1: to see for hunter Henry John who smith your boys?

196
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,959
Speaker 1: Detroit is top seven in the most catches and yards

197
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 1: allowed to tight end. So Henry is startable this week.

198
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 1: And you know what, if you're desperate, Bailey, Zappy looks

199
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,559
Speaker 1: to be the starter. I mean it's against the Lions

200
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:44,120
Speaker 1: right now. You look, We've seen We've seen quarterbacks like

201
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 1: him play well all year. He played pretty well in

202
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 1: Green Bay coming off attention, he looked like I'm looking

203
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,559
Speaker 1: at him, just waiting for him to fall apart. He didn't.

204
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:57,080
Speaker 1: If you're in any kind of super flex format, whether

205
00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 1: it's redraft or especially Dynasty, I would draft is Appy

206
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:02,719
Speaker 1: right now because he does have long term upside. I

207
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 1: don't know if he will see it, but I will

208
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 1: say it would have been nice to see him put

209
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,800
Speaker 1: any kind of drive together near the end or in overtime,

210
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 1: and he just couldn't. Did you guys see the photo

211
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 1: of him with Mac Jones? Oh yeah, I've seen the

212
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:19,520
Speaker 1: two head shots that you would never know that they're

213
00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:21,360
Speaker 1: not the same person. I've seen the two head shot

214
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 1: Bears take on the Vikings. This won't take very long.

215
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,559
Speaker 1: If if it turns out David Montgomery does not go,

216
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 1: then Khalil is an A grade. Bears run on a

217
00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 1: league leading sixty two of offensive plays, and again, if

218
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 1: Monty is out, that means ground Bears getting a lot

219
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 1: of work and he's played well. He grades is the

220
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,960
Speaker 1: second most efficient runner according to Next Gen Stats. He's

221
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 1: averaging six yards per carry. Minnesota's a lot of rushing

222
00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:55,600
Speaker 1: touchdowns in every game and ranks twenty seven and rushing

223
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,959
Speaker 1: d v O A. There's a great opportunity for Khalil

224
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 1: Herbert if Montgomery doesn't go. If Montgomery does go, I

225
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 1: got a knock him all the way down to a

226
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 1: C and a timeshare role. And I've got to see

227
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:11,560
Speaker 1: on Montgomery if he does go again in Minnesota's defense

228
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 1: is exploitable on the ground. If Montgomery's active. I'm assuming

229
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: Montgomery's active, He'll get sometime, but he's Herbert's should get

230
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 1: at least half of the carries. Even if Montgomery is active.

231
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:24,839
Speaker 1: They both get C grades in that event. And the

232
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,160
Speaker 1: only other Bear that you care about, Darnell Mooney coming

233
00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:29,720
Speaker 1: up the best game of his year by a mile.

234
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 1: He did nothing in the first three weeks. He is

235
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,840
Speaker 1: running mostly from the slot, and he matches up against

236
00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 1: Vikings cornerback Chandon Sullivan, who's allowed eighty eight percent of

237
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,800
Speaker 1: his passes to be completed. Sullivan's also giving up twelve

238
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:46,319
Speaker 1: yards per reception. That's a big number. The problem for

239
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,199
Speaker 1: Mooney's always targets. He's seeing four targets per game, but

240
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,439
Speaker 1: that could change considering his easy matchup with Sullivan's So

241
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:54,679
Speaker 1: a C grade on Darnell Mooney. We go over to

242
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:59,080
Speaker 1: the Vikings Justin Jefferson automatic A grade. Dalvin Cook also

243
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,960
Speaker 1: with an A grade. Here. Chicago hemorrhaging production to opposing

244
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 1: running backs, giving up at least from one total yards

245
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 1: to a running back in three straight games, and they're

246
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 1: seeing a league high thirty six rushes per game against them.

247
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 1: Dalvin Cook will not get all thirty six, but he

248
00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 1: should get more than twenty, and that puts him into

249
00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 1: a high level of productivity. Here, the Vikings have run

250
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 1: thirty seven plays from the red zone. Dalnn Cook only

251
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:26,440
Speaker 1: has five touches. We've touched on this basically every week,

252
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 1: going all the way back to the preseason, we told

253
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:31,440
Speaker 1: you expected this. Vikings a run nine plays from inside

254
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,320
Speaker 1: the five yard line. Dalvin Cook has one touch. That's

255
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 1: your danger. Cook may need to score from distance. Going

256
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 1: to the passing game, I like Adam Feeling and kJ

257
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:43,160
Speaker 1: Osbourne with C grades. Uh and well, actually I'm a

258
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:44,959
Speaker 1: bump up Adam Theland do a B grades. I don't

259
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:48,200
Speaker 1: think cornerback Jalen Johnson's gonna go. He's got a quad injury. Um.

260
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,560
Speaker 1: The Bears have very good safeties, but their cornerbacks are

261
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 1: dreadful kindall wild or Kyler Gordon awful? They've and Kyler

262
00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:00,160
Speaker 1: Gordon who man's the slot? kJ Osborne owners they He's

263
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:04,440
Speaker 1: allowed the most passing yards in the NFL three hundred

264
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 1: thirty five from the slot. Kyler Gordon does not belong

265
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,559
Speaker 1: on an NFL field. K j Osborne a nice sneaky

266
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 1: play in this one. And then that brings us to

267
00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:16,640
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins. I've got a B and C grades on

268
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,040
Speaker 1: his receiver, so I've got a B grade on Cousins here.

269
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 1: The only question really is teams don't pass on the Bears.

270
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 1: They run all day on the Bear too, so volume

271
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 1: could work against him. Chicago sees the lowest pass play

272
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 1: percentage in the league, and they've only given up three

273
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,640
Speaker 1: passing touchdowns because nobody has to pass. So that's your

274
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:42,240
Speaker 1: danger on starting. No, there's we've recovered this last week.

275
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 1: Can I make an open plea to Adam Feeling? Yeah? Please?

276
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 1: He's having a charity function at the Top Golf. You're

277
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:49,600
Speaker 1: in Minnesota on Monday, and I haven't been in weeks,

278
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 1: and I was planning to go, but he's closed the

279
00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 1: whole venue down for a very worthy cause. I'm sure,

280
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 1: but Adam Feeling put me on the list. Please. Brian

281
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 1: Johnson and Brian at Brian Johnson, can't you it's a

282
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 1: at event. You can't just go and just pay your

283
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 1: way in. Okay, Well there's that. Uh. Speaking of speaking

284
00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,640
Speaker 1: of paying for Brian salary, you should consider joining a

285
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 1: Guillotine league. New leagues forming all the time, fourteen man leagues,

286
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 1: the team leagues this week and then next week we

287
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 1: go down to thirteen. You know how the works. At

288
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 1: Guillotine leagues dot com. We encourage you to give that

289
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 1: a try. When we come back, take a chance on

290
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,120
Speaker 1: me nine players not normally in your starting lineup. We'll

291
00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 1: tell you who they are after this, It's take a

292
00:15:57,040 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 1: chance on me. Nine players not normally in your starting lineup,

293
00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:01,800
Speaker 1: many or available on the waiver wire. We begin at

294
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:06,080
Speaker 1: the quarterback position and Scott Fish. I'm going a little

295
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,240
Speaker 1: deeper this week. I'm gonna go with Cooper Rush facing

296
00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:11,840
Speaker 1: a Rams defense that you probably wouldn't think is a

297
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 1: great matchup. But they have allowed three hundred plus and

298
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 1: or multiple touchdowns three times this season. The other time

299
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 1: they did allow a touchdown a couple hundred yards. Cooper

300
00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 1: Rush also gets Michael gallup. He's got Michael Gallut back.

301
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,960
Speaker 1: Now he gets Sheltz back. Tony Pollard may mess so

302
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 1: they may not run as much. Never know. Yeah, it's

303
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,360
Speaker 1: Cooper Russia and it's been widely reported. It's not breaking news.

304
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 1: First ever Cowboys quarterback to start a career four oh

305
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:42,080
Speaker 1: Cooper Rush. I said this, Actually I tweeted this in

306
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 1: right when and right after Dac went down. Cooper Rush

307
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:48,440
Speaker 1: came into that first game. What happens when Cooper Rush

308
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:51,120
Speaker 1: leads this team to a bunch of wins, looks good

309
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 1: doing it, and then Dad comes back. What if he

310
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,120
Speaker 1: looks like the same act we saw in week one?

311
00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 1: I saw a tweet, and I wish I could remember

312
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:00,120
Speaker 1: who it was. I could credit them. They said, you

313
00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,280
Speaker 1: better watch out, Cooper Rush. You're playing yourself into a

314
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:06,480
Speaker 1: starting role for the Panthers. That's really good. That's really good.

315
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:09,680
Speaker 1: You're taking a chance of me. Quarterback Brian Cleveland's Jacoby

316
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,920
Speaker 1: Brissette at home against the Chargers, who have surrendered surrendered

317
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 1: at least two passing yards and multiple passing touchdowns in

318
00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:20,159
Speaker 1: every game so far. Last week, they allowed five completions

319
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,920
Speaker 1: of twenty plus yards. To be very comparable Davis Mills.

320
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 1: I like Jacoby Brissette, alright. What happened to the chargers

321
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 1: rebuilt secondary? Wow, I've got Ryan Tannehill. Nobody gets out

322
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:32,640
Speaker 1: of bed going on. I can't wait to start Ryan Tannehill.

323
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 1: But it's Washington. They've allowed the most passing touchdowns despite

324
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 1: playing some third tier talents like Trevor Lawrence and Cooper Rush.

325
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 1: Cornerbacks William Jackson and Kendall Fuller owned Pro Football Focus

326
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:47,040
Speaker 1: ranks at cornerback of a hundred fourteen and a hundred

327
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:51,200
Speaker 1: forty four. Fuller is allowed the second most yardage among

328
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,960
Speaker 1: all cornerbacks. Trailing Burks is gonna miss the game. But

329
00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 1: Robert Woods, Nick Westbrook at Keene good enough to style

330
00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill. Let's go to the running back position, Scott, Yes,

331
00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 1: I am going to go with my guy. I play

332
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:05,640
Speaker 1: in the league with Tyler Algier. I noticed this week

333
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 1: that I am playing against Tyler Lgire Oh in a game.

334
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:12,000
Speaker 1: He's gonna start, and he's starting himself over David Montgomery

335
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:15,440
Speaker 1: and over Antonio Gibson. He's throwing himself in the lineup

336
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 1: right there. So that tells you how much Tyler L.

337
00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:22,680
Speaker 1: Gire feels about himself in this matchup. Uh, they lost

338
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 1: Corderal Patterson. They do have Caleb Huntley, who was activated

339
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:28,439
Speaker 1: from the practice squad last week to go big against

340
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:31,120
Speaker 1: the Cleveland Browns. They're gonna have to activate him again

341
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:33,119
Speaker 1: and he'll have to stay on the active roster after that.

342
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 1: But he he had eight of his tent carries on

343
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:38,479
Speaker 1: one drive. He's mostly a big body back. He might

344
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:41,680
Speaker 1: get goal line work. Avery Avery Williams is more of

345
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,119
Speaker 1: a pass catching back, but Tyler lgre is the guy

346
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:46,119
Speaker 1: who caught the passes to the last two weeks in

347
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 1: in in those games. So I have Tyler Algier to

348
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,840
Speaker 1: get a decent workload against uh against this buckste that

349
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,119
Speaker 1: gave up a hundred fifty total yards and two scores

350
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:57,119
Speaker 1: to the Chiefs last week. Oddly yielding Bucks run defense

351
00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 1: last week, but still very good run defense. Uh, Brian,

352
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:02,960
Speaker 1: you're take a chance of me running back the Rams

353
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,439
Speaker 1: Darryl Henderson at home against Dallas. The Cowboys are allowing

354
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 1: four point eight yards per carry and more than five

355
00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:11,400
Speaker 1: catches per game to opposing running backs. Last week, Henderson

356
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 1: had eleven opportunities. Those are carries and targets to be

357
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,639
Speaker 1: nine of cam Acres, who did absolutely nothing with his

358
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:19,840
Speaker 1: Henderson is a better running back on this team, and

359
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,040
Speaker 1: he's gonna have a better game between the two. Travis

360
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:25,639
Speaker 1: Etn has been a massive disappointment, But if you're not

361
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 1: going to play him against Houston, why is he on

362
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,960
Speaker 1: your roster. Houston allowing one hundred eighty total yards and

363
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,160
Speaker 1: one and a half touchdowns per game to opposing running backs,

364
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,360
Speaker 1: both second worst in the league at ten. Hasn't flashed

365
00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:40,440
Speaker 1: as a receiver like we thought he would. I thought

366
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:42,399
Speaker 1: he was gonna be sitting on like a forty catch season.

367
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,320
Speaker 1: He's not gonna come close. But I'll note Houston has

368
00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 1: bottom ten and receptions and receiving yards to running backs.

369
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 1: So if it's ever gonna happen, this might be it. Alright,

370
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:55,600
Speaker 1: let's go to your take a chance of mer receivers, Scott. Yeah,

371
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:58,879
Speaker 1: I'm going with George Pickens. You probably you probably haven't

372
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:03,800
Speaker 1: been starting him, but he's he's three roster and maybe

373
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 1: up a little bit more this week. But he's going

374
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,480
Speaker 1: against Buffalo. Tough matchup, doesn't make you feel good. But

375
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 1: last week after after Kenny Pickett came in, he was

376
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:16,000
Speaker 1: targeted over thirty percent of the time with pickets. Passes

377
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:18,800
Speaker 1: had seventy one yards for a hundred two yards or

378
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:21,520
Speaker 1: seventy one of his hundred and two yards with Pickett

379
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,680
Speaker 1: catching all four of his targets. His average depth of

380
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:28,159
Speaker 1: target with pick in that second half way larger than

381
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 1: Rabinsky Pickets attempts were way longer than than Trabinsky and

382
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,359
Speaker 1: their fourteen point dogs. I think they're trying to pass

383
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:37,200
Speaker 1: to keep it and then keep it paced with the

384
00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 1: Bills in this one. Well, I'll look forward to hearing

385
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:42,600
Speaker 1: what you think about Nazi Harris in a very tricky

386
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:45,720
Speaker 1: matchup in a couple of minutes. Uh, Brian, let's go

387
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:47,920
Speaker 1: to York take a chance on the receiver. I'm gonna

388
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:50,400
Speaker 1: double down on the Browns and go with Donovan People's

389
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,920
Speaker 1: jones against the Chargers, who are allowing more than a

390
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:55,440
Speaker 1: hundred and sixty yards per game to opposing wide receivers

391
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,160
Speaker 1: and they've surrendered the second most touchdowns of the position

392
00:20:58,240 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 1: with six. DPJ has out targeted and outperformed Marie Cooper

393
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,960
Speaker 1: in two of four games. Cooper is surely going to

394
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,760
Speaker 1: draw more attention from the Chargers defense is also going

395
00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 1: to have their hands very full with the run game

396
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,560
Speaker 1: of the Browns, meaning d p J should be running

397
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 1: routes against single coverage all game long. Corey Davis has

398
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 1: been shockingly competent this year. Actually in many scoring systems.

399
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 1: He is a wide receiver too well. They're paying him

400
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:26,560
Speaker 1: to do just that. He keeps getting dropped and picked

401
00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:28,480
Speaker 1: up because people are like he did grow but he's

402
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 1: Corey Davis. Davis had nobody's enthused about it. He's notched

403
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:34,640
Speaker 1: at least seventy four yards in three or four games.

404
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 1: He's got two touchdowns on the season, and he faces

405
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 1: a Miami secondary that's been frankly terrible and Xavian Howard's hurt.

406
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,720
Speaker 1: Right now, Miami has been pumbled for a hundred ninety

407
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:47,360
Speaker 1: five yards per game to opposing wide receivers, fourth most

408
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,320
Speaker 1: they've allowed to one yard receivers in the last three games.

409
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,040
Speaker 1: Davis is ethan air yards and I don't think of

410
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 1: Corey Davis as a deep ball threat, but here he

411
00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:00,520
Speaker 1: is ethan airy yards and big plays have been given

412
00:22:00,600 --> 00:22:03,520
Speaker 1: up by Nick Needham and Daming Howard, assuming Howard even

413
00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:06,640
Speaker 1: plays in this game. So Corey Davis our final take

414
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:10,640
Speaker 1: a chance on me player, Steelers take on the Bill Scott.

415
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:12,560
Speaker 1: You already told us a little bit about the passing

416
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 1: game and how you feel about George Pickens. How do

417
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 1: you feel about the rest of that passing game? And

418
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 1: then Naji Harris, I want to hear if you've got

419
00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:26,080
Speaker 1: a bench grade Naji Harris. I don't, but I have

420
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:30,760
Speaker 1: a non enthusiastic C grade on Naja Harris, so it's

421
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,280
Speaker 1: probably in line with the same place you were thinking.

422
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,159
Speaker 1: The nice part about Naji Harris is he gets a

423
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,480
Speaker 1: ton of volume eighteen plus touches in three states. We

424
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:40,239
Speaker 1: know he can catch the ball, so he could get

425
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 1: involved in that as they fall away behind the Bills potentially,

426
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,840
Speaker 1: but the Bills d hasn't allowed fifty yard rusher this season.

427
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:50,200
Speaker 1: The lead Black, though, has scored five touchdowns against the

428
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:54,640
Speaker 1: Bills somehow, which which is definitely weird. I wouldn't count

429
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 1: on that though. Last week, the picket led Steelers had

430
00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,359
Speaker 1: four places inside the five. Here's another concern for Naja Yarris.

431
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,280
Speaker 1: Two picket runs, one picket passed, and just one kerry

432
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 1: for Nag Harris. Of all those plays inside the five

433
00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 1: last night, with the last week with Pickett running things,

434
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 1: uh Harris is fifth in the NFL and opportunities inside

435
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 1: the five, but just two scores, and there's already concerned.

436
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:16,880
Speaker 1: There wasn't super productive with his three and a half

437
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 1: yards per carry. His six point seven per catch is

438
00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:23,000
Speaker 1: pretty inefficient. The only thing he's got going for him

439
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,840
Speaker 1: for me is the volume. See his likelihood to get

440
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:29,639
Speaker 1: fifteen to twenty touches. He's probably just gonna get enough done. Mean,

441
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:31,879
Speaker 1: you got to hope for a score, and that's about

442
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,000
Speaker 1: all you can hope for. Yeah. By the way, Jalen

443
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 1: Warren's averaging six yards per cary last week, seven and

444
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:40,440
Speaker 1: a half the week before. Still keep your I said

445
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,920
Speaker 1: it last week pick up these backup running backs. It

446
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 1: was a great call. Uh. Kenny Pickett is on the bench. Though.

447
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:48,879
Speaker 1: The Bills are top five against quarterbacks, wide receivers and

448
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:51,200
Speaker 1: tight ends and top ten against running back so it's

449
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:55,080
Speaker 1: a tough matchup for everybody. They did face Stafford cop

450
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:59,119
Speaker 1: Henry to a wattle hill. They've been tested, They've legitimately

451
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:02,719
Speaker 1: been tested with those those top rankings and defenses. Uh.

452
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,119
Speaker 1: Quarterbacks are averaging a hundred and seventy three yards and

453
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:07,520
Speaker 1: just three scores in four games. So Pickets on the bench,

454
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:09,720
Speaker 1: you're not gonna be too excited about the past game.

455
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 1: I said, I do like Pickens. I did have a

456
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,440
Speaker 1: C grade on him. Hope for some deep balls and

457
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 1: in a decent Okay Sea level game there I have

458
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:19,879
Speaker 1: Friar with on the bench. He caught three of his

459
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,719
Speaker 1: four targets from Pickett. The one he didn't was one

460
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:25,360
Speaker 1: of one of them that was picked off. Obviously if

461
00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:28,160
Speaker 1: if if he didn't get it was picked off. That's

462
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 1: that's all pick It did. Last week ten completions two Steelers,

463
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 1: three completions to the other team. Uh. The Bills held

464
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:38,399
Speaker 1: Andrews Mark Andrews to fifteen yards and every tight end

465
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:42,119
Speaker 1: under forty UM going back to last year, only Kelsey,

466
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:45,960
Speaker 1: Gronk Pitts, and Dan Arnold top fifty years yards on

467
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 1: this d So you have to be on that level,

468
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:52,240
Speaker 1: the Dan Arnold level to get fifty yards against this team,

469
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,840
Speaker 1: averaging within fifteen yards for catching. He's the ball Evan

470
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,760
Speaker 1: Ingram time. I actually do have d off. I actually

471
00:24:57,800 --> 00:24:59,680
Speaker 1: do have Deonto Johnson on the bench. He's getting a

472
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 1: ton of targets, but he didn't get as many with

473
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:05,040
Speaker 1: picking in um only had eleven yards. His aid DOT

474
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,879
Speaker 1: has been terrible. His yards after the catch is hilarious.

475
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,280
Speaker 1: Six on the season. Six yards after the catch on

476
00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,400
Speaker 1: the season for Deonta Johnson this year, UM, he's any

477
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,160
Speaker 1: He doesn't even have a single red zone target this year.

478
00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,040
Speaker 1: That's that's too much concerned for me. I have Deonta

479
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 1: Johnson on the bench. Over to the other side, Josh

480
00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:24,920
Speaker 1: Allen and Stefon Diggs. I don't need to talk about

481
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:28,160
Speaker 1: They're they're gonna be a grades almost every week. Gabe

482
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:32,000
Speaker 1: Davis and Isaiah Mackenzie. I have sea grades on both

483
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 1: of them. Were assuming here Mackenzie goes, he clears concussion

484
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:38,840
Speaker 1: protocol and he goes. Mackenzie scored in three or four.

485
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 1: Crowder is now out with a broken foot. That's likely

486
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:45,840
Speaker 1: bumps Mackenzie snapshare up a little. I expect Khalil Gear

487
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:47,880
Speaker 1: to get in more. I'll talk about him a little

488
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:51,320
Speaker 1: bit more later. Potentially. Uh Davis disappeared each of the

489
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,639
Speaker 1: last two weeks, but they were far tougher spots. The

490
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 1: Steelers have allowed seventy five plus yards and or scored

491
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:59,479
Speaker 1: a six different wide receivers. It's it's a better matchup

492
00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:01,119
Speaker 1: for him. I think there's room for him to be

493
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:04,240
Speaker 1: that seventy yard maybe a touchdown sea level guy here.

494
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,160
Speaker 1: Dawson Knox is on the bench. Pretty hard to trust

495
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:10,680
Speaker 1: a three to four catch twenty four yard guy any week. Um,

496
00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:13,920
Speaker 1: and he's probably last I saw he was leaning towards out.

497
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,840
Speaker 1: He might he might officially be out by now. Okay,

498
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,760
Speaker 1: Devin Singletary, I have a B grade on here. Like

499
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:23,679
Speaker 1: Singletary this way, I really like it. Fifteen plus touches

500
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:26,560
Speaker 1: and back to back snap percentage has gone way up

501
00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:30,680
Speaker 1: UM in his games. I saw this earlier this week.

502
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 1: In his games where he gets at least seventy the snap,

503
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:37,840
Speaker 1: He's been a top twenty four running back iron I

504
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 1: believe seven of those eight games, so we're looking at

505
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,119
Speaker 1: so so you're already looking close to be their fourteen

506
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:47,520
Speaker 1: point five point favorites. They do bring in James Cook

507
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 1: when they get ahead, but Singletary should get a decent

508
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,719
Speaker 1: volume here. He has thirteen catches for hud to five

509
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:55,200
Speaker 1: yards and to score just through the air in the

510
00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:57,720
Speaker 1: last two games, so he gets it. He gets it

511
00:26:57,760 --> 00:26:59,640
Speaker 1: there too, So I have a B grade on Singletary

512
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 1: in this one. Let's sell. Let's sell on Naji Harris

513
00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:06,440
Speaker 1: right now. The schedule's ridiculous. Buffalo this week than Tampa, Miami,

514
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,720
Speaker 1: Philadelphia a bye week, and Saints. Naji Harris is not

515
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 1: going to be above a C grade for another eight weeks.

516
00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:18,080
Speaker 1: Get out of Naji Harris now and don't buy Naji

517
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,679
Speaker 1: Harris if you're here exactly, don't be on the other

518
00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:23,520
Speaker 1: side of that that flim flam. I would I would

519
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:27,040
Speaker 1: be offering Naji Harris for guys like Damian Pierce right

520
00:27:27,160 --> 00:27:30,160
Speaker 1: that I think are way way better and safer runners,

521
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:32,920
Speaker 1: not not just matchup. You know me, I tell you

522
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:35,360
Speaker 1: Jaen One was one of my preseason you know, get

523
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 1: him on the back of your bench, sleepers, if if

524
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:40,359
Speaker 1: he starts taking more and more of a role, that

525
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 1: that paired with a bad matchup is just terrible death.

526
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:47,000
Speaker 1: Get out of Naji Harris Now, Dolphins take on the Jets.

527
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:50,080
Speaker 1: Teddy Bridgewater is your news starting quarterback for the Dolphins,

528
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 1: at least for the time being. Get this. I looked

529
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:57,760
Speaker 1: this up. He's played sixty three game NFL games, started

530
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 1: sixty three NFL games, his three of the NFL, going

531
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 1: well all the way back to the Super Bowl era

532
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:07,359
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty six forward. No quarterback has thrown fewer touchdowns

533
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:11,960
Speaker 1: in sixty three games than Teddy Bridgewater one point one

534
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 1: per game. He is a fantasy vacuum that is going

535
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:18,240
Speaker 1: to suck the life out of that offense. That's just

536
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:21,520
Speaker 1: my opinion. Yeah, Dolphins taking on the Jets, Brian, I

537
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:23,600
Speaker 1: think you're wrong about Teddy this week. You gotta give

538
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:26,160
Speaker 1: Teddy B A B, especially against the Jets where twenty

539
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:29,719
Speaker 1: nine against the passing DV O A and my Miami

540
00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:31,919
Speaker 1: has the weapons to do the damage. And don't forget

541
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:34,280
Speaker 1: this is a revenge game of sorts for Teddy, who

542
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:37,440
Speaker 1: signed with New York in eighteen. In March they gave

543
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 1: up on him before the preseason, traded him to the Saints.

544
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,600
Speaker 1: He's gonna seek his revenge on the Jets in this game.

545
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:48,200
Speaker 1: Speaking of those weapons of Teddy's past teams are revenge matches.

546
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:51,480
Speaker 1: That that's every week. I hasn't been around that much.

547
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 1: He's not Bryan Fitzpatrick. Is he eight? Is he? Is

548
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 1: he eight teams in right now? He might be. I

549
00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,360
Speaker 1: don't think it's nine times. Um uh. Speaking of his weapons,

550
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,400
Speaker 1: Mike Kisiki is not one. He's on the bench. His

551
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 1: usage is what we feared, which is absolutely nothing. So

552
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:06,480
Speaker 1: you're not starting a Dolphins tight end, but you are

553
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,280
Speaker 1: going to start Tyreek Hill and Jalen Waddle. They've been

554
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:11,320
Speaker 1: dealing with some minor injuries this week, but they should

555
00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 1: be good to go. Gonna give both of them and

556
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,080
Speaker 1: be the Jetsteps surrendered the second most wide receiver touchdowns

557
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 1: and have allowed an opposing wide receiver to top one

558
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:21,720
Speaker 1: hundred yards in three straight games. DJ Read and Sauce

559
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,160
Speaker 1: Garden or a four mittle duo at cornerback, but so

560
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:27,280
Speaker 1: our Hill and Wattle at wide receiver. So I like

561
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,640
Speaker 1: them a little more than the Jets corners. And lastly,

562
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,680
Speaker 1: from Miami Raheem mostarred in Chase Edmonds. I will give

563
00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:35,600
Speaker 1: both of them a see. It's a fairly neutral matchup.

564
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:37,480
Speaker 1: The Jets are allowing over a hundred and ten compo

565
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,320
Speaker 1: yards and a touchdown per game to opposing Bacs. Most

566
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 1: are it saw eighteen opportunities to the eight from Edmonds

567
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:46,200
Speaker 1: last week, but Edmonds appears to be the preferred option

568
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:48,640
Speaker 1: when Miami's in the red zone. So I don't I

569
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:50,600
Speaker 1: don't know which way to go. I would start. I

570
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,760
Speaker 1: would start one of the flexworthy if you have either

571
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,680
Speaker 1: on roster. If you're gonna pick one, I would go most.

572
00:29:56,840 --> 00:30:00,240
Speaker 1: But I think Edmonds is still a viable dark throw

573
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,520
Speaker 1: in this one. And that is it. From Miami. Over

574
00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:05,560
Speaker 1: to the Jet side, starting with Breeze Hall. I'm gonna

575
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 1: give him a see. He appears to be taking over

576
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 1: his lead back. His percentage has increased week over week.

577
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:13,960
Speaker 1: I would trade Nazi Harris for Breest Hall. Oh yeah,

578
00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 1: I usually I get him. Hall has also become the

579
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,000
Speaker 1: primary option in the red zone at running back for

580
00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:21,120
Speaker 1: the Jets. But this is a tough matchup. Miami is

581
00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:23,640
Speaker 1: fourth against the run in d v O A, allowing

582
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:26,680
Speaker 1: just fifty seven rush yards per game to opposing running backs.

583
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 1: That said, Hall has seen these second most targets among

584
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,760
Speaker 1: all running backs, and Miami has allowed the fourth most

585
00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:34,480
Speaker 1: catches to the position, So I might even bump them

586
00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 1: up to a B in PPR leagues, but a C

587
00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 1: and standard. You gotta bench Michael Carter at this point

588
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:40,600
Speaker 1: because if the trend continues, he's looking at a thirte

589
00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:44,000
Speaker 1: snapshare at best, so he's on the bench. Um Now,

590
00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:47,360
Speaker 1: over the Jets wide receivers, Miami could be without corner

591
00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:51,160
Speaker 1: Xaving Howard, Keion Crossing, and Byron Jones, which would bode

592
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:55,040
Speaker 1: well for all of them. If Xavian Howard their best

593
00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 1: corner sits, I'll give Garrett Wilson a B. If he plays,

594
00:30:57,440 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 1: he'll give him a CE. But people were worried will

595
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 1: And wouldn't get enough attention from Zack Wilson last week.

596
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,800
Speaker 1: But Garrett Wilson still out targeted Elijah More last week.

597
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:09,120
Speaker 1: So I like Wilson more than more, who I will

598
00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 1: get a C two as well. I have him on

599
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 1: the bench if Miami wasn't still within at cornerback, but

600
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,760
Speaker 1: with all the injuries in their secondary, I'll give Elijah

601
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 1: More one more shot here. He had eight catches for

602
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,040
Speaker 1: a hundred and forty one yards and a touchdown in

603
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 1: his loan meeting with Miami last year, and Corey Davis

604
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,920
Speaker 1: startable as well, charge he was your take wide receiver.

605
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 1: Tyler Conklin also startable with a CE. With Zack Wilson

606
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 1: back under center, Conklin posted season lows in both targets

607
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,720
Speaker 1: and receptions. That being said, he has a good matchup

608
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:37,880
Speaker 1: against Miami. He was allowed the fifth most yards to

609
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,920
Speaker 1: tight ends and surrendered a touchdown to Hayden Hurst last week.

610
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:44,000
Speaker 1: And with all those startable past catch your grades. I

611
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:46,120
Speaker 1: gotta see on Zack Wilson, who could do a little

612
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 1: damage on the ground as well. When we come back,

613
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:52,960
Speaker 1: another block of matchups for you, including Texans Jaguars which

614
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:58,240
Speaker 1: is suddenly overflowing, and fantasy options and how much you

615
00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:01,080
Speaker 1: know this show loves Damian Pierce. What is the letter

616
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:04,440
Speaker 1: grade above A find out who's doing the matchup? I

617
00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:09,280
Speaker 1: am find out when we come back Fantasy Football Weekly.

618
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:31,760
Speaker 1: Fantasy Football Weekly continues Paul Giargie and Scott Fish and

619
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 1: Brian Johnson with you. If you haven't tried a guillotine league. Yet,

620
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:36,800
Speaker 1: maybe you want to know when you want to join

621
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:40,000
Speaker 1: another league. Maybe the league the team you got in

622
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:43,880
Speaker 1: your normal league is foundering. Maybe your five close to

623
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 1: five hundred. Maybe just don't love that one. Maybe you

624
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 1: want to start in the league. Maybe you always want

625
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 1: to try Guillotine league. We've got new drafts basically every

626
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:55,840
Speaker 1: day at Guillotine leagues. Where you drafted Kyle Pitts. Well, yeah,

627
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:59,840
Speaker 1: it's it's been tough. Uh. When let's talk about Titans

628
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:04,280
Speaker 1: gain the Jaguars gentlemen, beginning with Damian Pierce rushing output

629
00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:07,280
Speaker 1: has increased in every game. He caught all six of

630
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:10,040
Speaker 1: his targets last week that weren't throwing to him at

631
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,840
Speaker 1: the beginning of the year. Now they've figured out what

632
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:15,239
Speaker 1: we knew looking at the tape in college. This kid

633
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 1: can catch oh Man. That newfound receiving prowess could be

634
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:23,840
Speaker 1: fruitful against the Jacksonville team allowing the second most receptions

635
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:28,040
Speaker 1: and receiving yards to opposing running backs. Every starting running

636
00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:30,600
Speaker 1: back has had at least fifty three total yards against

637
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:33,120
Speaker 1: the Jags. That gives you both a safe floor and

638
00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:42,000
Speaker 1: upside for Damian Pierce. With and what the fantasy Funzie

639
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,440
Speaker 1: so I guess I can't technically by the way he

640
00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:47,480
Speaker 1: went to Florida, right, Yeah? What were they thinking? Like

641
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:51,840
Speaker 1: all the time? Probably when the National Championship somebody I

642
00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 1: saw this on my Twitter there were people posting, still

643
00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:57,160
Speaker 1: don't trust Damian Pierce because, oh they used him at Florida.

644
00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 1: I'm like, good over it. Just open your eyes and

645
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:02,360
Speaker 1: look at the guys play Florida. Man refuses to use

646
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 1: Damien pierced Brandon Cooks. Uh. He's faced the Jaguars four

647
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:11,880
Speaker 1: times since joining Houston. Here's his games. Hundred sixty one yards,

648
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:16,040
Speaker 1: eighty three yards, one hundred thirty two yards, and one

649
00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:19,840
Speaker 1: hundred two yards for Brandon Cooks against the Jaguars. It

650
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 1: is an improved defense from last year, but their secondary

651
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:25,320
Speaker 1: has been very charitable, the receivers in particular, yielding five

652
00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:27,759
Speaker 1: scores to the position that is tied for third most.

653
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:30,279
Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks with a B and for much the same

654
00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 1: reason we're gonna we're gonna do a dart throw on

655
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 1: Nico Collins, coming off a career high eighty two yard game.

656
00:34:38,760 --> 00:34:41,280
Speaker 1: He'll be facing cornerback Tyson Campbell. The most. He's allowed

657
00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:44,279
Speaker 1: two touchdowns in his coverage already this year, We're gonna

658
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 1: keep Davids Mills on the bench, even though I've got

659
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:48,160
Speaker 1: B and C grades on Nico Collins, just not much

660
00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:51,160
Speaker 1: upside to his game so far. Doesn't look bad, doesn't

661
00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:54,200
Speaker 1: doesn't engender an opportunity to start. Let's go to the

662
00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:59,160
Speaker 1: Jaguars side. James Robinson a bounce back performance coming. We

663
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:02,799
Speaker 1: saw Austin Neckler right some bad games against this same

664
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:06,080
Speaker 1: Texans defense. Now it'll be James Robinson coming off a

665
00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:08,719
Speaker 1: soft game. Houston allowing a hundred eighty total yards and

666
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:11,960
Speaker 1: one point five touchdowns per games to opposing backs. Both

667
00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:15,239
Speaker 1: second most starters especially been feasting as they're averaging a

668
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:19,080
Speaker 1: hundred thirty five total yards against the Texans. Already told

669
00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 1: you Travis e t n is was my take a

670
00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:25,680
Speaker 1: chance of me running back with a C grade on him.

671
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,399
Speaker 1: Let's go to the passing game. Trevor Lawrence has thrown

672
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 1: multiple touchdown passes in three straight games, Sofie only accomplished

673
00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:35,160
Speaker 1: twice as a rookie all year. One of those games

674
00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:38,080
Speaker 1: was against the Texans. I like that be great on him,

675
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:40,040
Speaker 1: and I've got to be great in Christian Kirk. He's

676
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:43,080
Speaker 1: getting a lot of use, seeing nine targets per game,

677
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:46,440
Speaker 1: and that's the kind of volume that should be helpful

678
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:50,719
Speaker 1: against perennial roast e Desmond King in the slot. King

679
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:54,719
Speaker 1: was Pro Football Focus his cornerback one nineteen last year,

680
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:57,000
Speaker 1: and so far this year he's allowing a passer rating

681
00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:59,920
Speaker 1: of ninety nine in his coverage Christian Kirk It gets

682
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:03,000
Speaker 1: B grade. Z Jones expected to return from his ankle injury.

683
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,600
Speaker 1: Pre injuries A was coming off a great game ten

684
00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:08,040
Speaker 1: catches eighty five yards in a touchdown. He runs from

685
00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:11,080
Speaker 1: all over the field, so he'll draw the aforementioned Desmond King,

686
00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:14,480
Speaker 1: but also the lackluster outside corners of Steven Nelson and

687
00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:18,000
Speaker 1: rookie Derek Stingley, who was allowed the fifth most receptions

688
00:36:18,040 --> 00:36:21,640
Speaker 1: and fourth most yards among all cornerbacks. So he is

689
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:24,680
Speaker 1: also a starter in this game. It's covered to the

690
00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:28,200
Speaker 1: Falcons taking on the Bucks Scott. Yes, so the Falcons.

691
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 1: I actually don't have a lot of starting grades here.

692
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 1: I already talked about Tyler Lgier. I had to see

693
00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:34,719
Speaker 1: grade on him. He's my take a chance on me

694
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:37,680
Speaker 1: runner this week. I have Williams and Huntley on the bench.

695
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:39,520
Speaker 1: I I don't know that they'll quite get the volume

696
00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:42,160
Speaker 1: against a buck stee that you know has been pretty

697
00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:44,000
Speaker 1: good over the last year or so. They weren't great

698
00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:47,680
Speaker 1: last week, but I have them on the bench. Marcus Mariotta,

699
00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:51,080
Speaker 1: he gets a buck stee that face Prescott Winston Rogers

700
00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:53,520
Speaker 1: Mahomes held them to an average of under two hundred

701
00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:55,520
Speaker 1: fifty yards and six scores between him, So I got

702
00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 1: him on the bench. He's not even running the ball anymore,

703
00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:01,480
Speaker 1: twenty three yards on the ground since week one, so

704
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,480
Speaker 1: he's on the bench. Uh. Kyle Pitts is obviously on

705
00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:08,200
Speaker 1: the bench because he's not playing. He's out. Uh allowminda

706
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:11,160
Speaker 1: is zach kias I actually do have him on the bench.

707
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:12,880
Speaker 1: I know he might get a little more work with

708
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:15,799
Speaker 1: Pits out, but he only ran eight routes last week.

709
00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:18,760
Speaker 1: He's barely involved. He plays half the snaps. He's getting

710
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:23,440
Speaker 1: about two catches per week. It just so happens he's starting, alright.

711
00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:26,359
Speaker 1: My only other grade four the Falcons is Drake London,

712
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:28,239
Speaker 1: who I do have a B grade on, averaging eight

713
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:30,560
Speaker 1: targets per game. Once again, probably go up a little

714
00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:33,160
Speaker 1: boy a little bit this week. He's the alpha role

715
00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 1: in the offense. They just don't pass as much, uh,

716
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:39,320
Speaker 1: leaving London probably in the eighty five range most weeks.

717
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:42,480
Speaker 1: This week, maybe a little bit more because he gets

718
00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:44,800
Speaker 1: the middle of the pack match up. The Bucks have

719
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:48,360
Speaker 1: allowed seven different receivers to have over fifty yards and

720
00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:50,799
Speaker 1: or a score. I think that's where London is gonna

721
00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:53,400
Speaker 1: live this week. Maybe a little more upside. On the

722
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:56,240
Speaker 1: other side, I have a B grade for Tom Brady,

723
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:59,760
Speaker 1: which weirdly feels high this season. Right is on the season,

724
00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:02,000
Speaker 1: but he's finally getting his receivers back. He's getting his

725
00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:05,000
Speaker 1: receivers back. The Falcons have allowed multiple scores to every

726
00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:08,279
Speaker 1: quarterback they faced not named Jacoby Percent. The other three

727
00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:11,880
Speaker 1: average two eight yards and two point three scores. Brady

728
00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:14,200
Speaker 1: hasn't been lights out, but his best two games were

729
00:38:14,239 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 1: the last two weeks and it so he's turning up

730
00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:19,600
Speaker 1: and it's a favoritable spot here. He's got Mike Evans

731
00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:22,240
Speaker 1: with a basically an automatic A grade. He just scores

732
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:25,120
Speaker 1: too often. He's Brady's main target. God when I have

733
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:28,160
Speaker 1: the B grade on uh. He slid back into the

734
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,520
Speaker 1: lineup last week and the Bucks stopped throwing to other

735
00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:34,920
Speaker 1: wide receivers almost completely. He played of snaps commanded ten targets.

736
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:37,720
Speaker 1: The Bucks will likely get ahead, but they'll need points

737
00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:41,040
Speaker 1: on the way there Against the Falcons defense that's fifth

738
00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:44,840
Speaker 1: worst against wide receivers, allowing fourth most receptions, ninth most yards,

739
00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:49,279
Speaker 1: and seventh most touchdowns UH in the running game. Now

740
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:52,880
Speaker 1: this is where it gets interesting, you know it. I

741
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:56,759
Speaker 1: may not I touted Rashad White on this show many

742
00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:59,359
Speaker 1: many times, but he he had eight touches to four

743
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:02,279
Speaker 1: nets ten but four net still stayed involved in the

744
00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:05,759
Speaker 1: passing game. They just didn't run much. Um, here's my

745
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:08,360
Speaker 1: prespect last week. Five catches for fifty six yards in

746
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:10,200
Speaker 1: a score, but you take away the score like it's

747
00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:13,080
Speaker 1: it's okay. I don't even have a startable grade here

748
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:15,040
Speaker 1: on him, but I can I can see in a

749
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:18,800
Speaker 1: real pinch, like a real dart throw, maybe throwing Rashod

750
00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:21,400
Speaker 1: hight In. But for four net, I have a B

751
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:24,160
Speaker 1: grade on him. Had seventeen pluses each of the last

752
00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:27,920
Speaker 1: three weeks. Falling behind the Chiefs last week was a

753
00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:31,759
Speaker 1: complete cheap UH game script shift for them. I don't

754
00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:34,239
Speaker 1: think that happens here. I think they get ahead of

755
00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 1: Atlanta and they stay with the foot on the ground um,

756
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:40,680
Speaker 1: and he'll get back to his workhouse, workhorse roll his

757
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:42,680
Speaker 1: past catching came back, which you like to see. The

758
00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:47,200
Speaker 1: last two weeks, um only one backs top back top

759
00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:50,320
Speaker 1: seventy yards against the Falcon and it took over twenty touches.

760
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:53,920
Speaker 1: But their ranking is mostly predicated on not playing a

761
00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:56,120
Speaker 1: lot of great backs, and I think they get ahead

762
00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:57,960
Speaker 1: and stay on the ground, so be great on four net.

763
00:39:58,160 --> 00:39:59,960
Speaker 1: I have a bench on sea. But if you're really

764
00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:03,560
Speaker 1: really really pressed for I guess you could. Man, you're

765
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:05,719
Speaker 1: way more optimistic on Leonard for not than I am.

766
00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:10,840
Speaker 1: Declining yards in every game this season, declining uh, declining

767
00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:14,560
Speaker 1: carries and three straight down to three rushes last last week.

768
00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:16,680
Speaker 1: I take away from the last week, I put his

769
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,480
Speaker 1: game script. Alright, let's go to our final set of matchups,

770
00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:23,320
Speaker 1: Chargers taking on the Browns. Alright, Sartin with Austin Ekeler

771
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:25,560
Speaker 1: for the Chargers in a for him currently on pace

772
00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:28,760
Speaker 1: for a hundred and fifteen catches right now, which is crazy,

773
00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:31,959
Speaker 1: also has at least thirteen carries and three or four games.

774
00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:35,279
Speaker 1: The Browns are averaging a rushing touchdown allowed on every

775
00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:38,880
Speaker 1: fifteen carries. The yield the second worst carries per touchdown

776
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:42,359
Speaker 1: rate in the NFL, so a smash spot for Ecker. Now,

777
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:44,879
Speaker 1: Keenan Allen unlikely to play this week, so we're gonna

778
00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:48,359
Speaker 1: continue on as though he's not playing. Even with Alan out,

779
00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:50,560
Speaker 1: I only have a B for Mike Williams. He does

780
00:40:50,680 --> 00:40:53,080
Speaker 1: have two touchdowns over his last three games and currently

781
00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:56,400
Speaker 1: leads all receivers and Pro Football Focuses contested catch grade.

782
00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:58,920
Speaker 1: But he'll face a tough test in corner Denzil Award,

783
00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:01,440
Speaker 1: who allows fifth one yards per game and his coverage

784
00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:03,520
Speaker 1: and his surrender just one score. And the Browns just

785
00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:07,880
Speaker 1: designated cornerback Greedy Williams for return from injured reserve. Last season,

786
00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:11,200
Speaker 1: Greedy had the lowest completion percentage of any Brown's defender

787
00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:13,800
Speaker 1: who saw more than twenty four targets. Now, I just

788
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:17,000
Speaker 1: said Alan most likely not playing, So even though it's

789
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:19,600
Speaker 1: not a great matchup on paper, I will give Josh Palmer. See,

790
00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:21,960
Speaker 1: you want a starting wide receiver in this Chargers offense,

791
00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:24,160
Speaker 1: and you do want to start Jailed Everett. He is

792
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:27,480
Speaker 1: questionable right now, but should likely play. He He's thrived

793
00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:30,040
Speaker 1: with Keenan Allen on the bench, has notched thirteen plus

794
00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:33,480
Speaker 1: PPR points in three or four games. Cleveland allows sixty

795
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:36,120
Speaker 1: plus yards per game two tight ends, but they have

796
00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:38,359
Speaker 1: yet to surrender a touchdown to the position. But ever

797
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:40,480
Speaker 1: it could be the first to across the stripe for

798
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:44,280
Speaker 1: a tight end against the Browns. And lastly, justin Herbert

799
00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:46,480
Speaker 1: air Bear, I'm waiting for the button. I don't know

800
00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:52,440
Speaker 1: if I can get it, I'll keep going Bears allowed man.

801
00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:55,400
Speaker 1: So far, the bar owns that faced Baker Mayfield, Joe Flacco,

802
00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:59,840
Speaker 1: Sad Trombonesky and Marcus Mariota. Uh not a great or

803
00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:02,680
Speaker 1: a murderers road quarterbacks. May It means the return of

804
00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:04,839
Speaker 1: Greedy Williams is a big boost, but air Bear still

805
00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:06,920
Speaker 1: has a skill set and weapons of a productive day

806
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:10,040
Speaker 1: over to the brown side. Nick Chubb A for him.

807
00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:12,800
Speaker 1: The Charges are allowing six point one rushing yards and

808
00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:16,360
Speaker 1: one point three touchdowns per game to opposing backs. That

809
00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:19,040
Speaker 1: being said, somehow, the Charges have not a lot of

810
00:42:19,120 --> 00:42:21,600
Speaker 1: rushing touchdown in the red zone this season on thirteen carries.

811
00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:25,360
Speaker 1: It's all come from distance, like Damian Pierce did so.

812
00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:27,919
Speaker 1: But regardless of that, still at A for Nick Chubb

813
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,360
Speaker 1: and a C for Kareem Hunt. The Chargers allowing a

814
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:32,920
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty plus combo yards per game to opposing

815
00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:35,000
Speaker 1: running backs, so there should be enough to go around

816
00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:37,160
Speaker 1: for Hunt, who is averaging around three catches and sixty

817
00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:40,400
Speaker 1: combo yards per game over to the wide receivers for

818
00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:44,000
Speaker 1: the Browns already like Donovan People's Joneses might take a

819
00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:45,960
Speaker 1: chance on mean wide receiver, but I also like a

820
00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:47,680
Speaker 1: Mari Cooper even more, going to give him a B.

821
00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:49,960
Speaker 1: L A is allowing more than a hundred and sixty

822
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:52,440
Speaker 1: yards per game to opposing wide receivers and they've surrendered

823
00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:56,000
Speaker 1: the second most touchdowns of the position. Cornerback J C. Jackson,

824
00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:59,880
Speaker 1: who was the Chargers Prize offseason acquisition, Yeah, he's been

825
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:02,120
Speaker 1: in with a nagging ankle injury that's hampered his ability

826
00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:05,680
Speaker 1: to shut down opponents. He's been allowing ninety four yards

827
00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:10,120
Speaker 1: per game, also some catch rate and a hundred forty

828
00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:13,720
Speaker 1: hun passer rating in his coverage. The love Cooper also

829
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:15,880
Speaker 1: like David and Joan Coup and Joeku with a c

830
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:18,439
Speaker 1: over the last two weeks, fourteen catches for a hundred

831
00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:21,440
Speaker 1: and six yards and a touchdown. L Lack has yet

832
00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:23,920
Speaker 1: to surrender a tight end touchdown and they've only allowed

833
00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:26,000
Speaker 1: combined five catches for six and nine yards of the

834
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:27,480
Speaker 1: position over the last few games. But I still got

835
00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:29,480
Speaker 1: to start in Joeku and Jacobe Rossett was gonna take

836
00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:33,719
Speaker 1: a chance on the quarterback. Done? Yes, well done. There's

837
00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:35,439
Speaker 1: still so there's this a little buffer time. You don't

838
00:43:35,719 --> 00:43:37,600
Speaker 1: rushed quite that much at the end, but that gives

839
00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:39,200

Speaker 1: twenty four and follow Brian at b t x J.

852
00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:36,960
Speaker 1: This is a game we call three tough questions. I

853
00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:40,440
Speaker 1: will pepper, my co host, with the aforementioned tough questions.

854
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:43,399
Speaker 1: See if you can get as many right or more

855
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:47,239
Speaker 1: as Scott and Bryant. Tough question number one, what is

856
00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:50,719
Speaker 1: the appropriate level of concern for Travis E? T N?

857
00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:55,200
Speaker 1: Is it none, some or a bowl loosening level of

858
00:44:55,360 --> 00:45:00,080
Speaker 1: existential dread? Scott, this is kind of tough because it

859
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:03,080
Speaker 1: is it from the time you drafted him or from

860
00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:05,480
Speaker 1: how you felt two and a half weeks ago, because

861
00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:08,279
Speaker 1: those might be very different. But I'm I'm starting to

862
00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:10,759
Speaker 1: lean where I'm not. I don't have concerned anywhere. I

863
00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:12,279
Speaker 1: was a little more concerned a couple of weeks ago.

864
00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:16,360
Speaker 1: But Robinson's yards after contact have gone down all four weeks.

865
00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:19,200
Speaker 1: His snaps have gone down from sixty three percent week

866
00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:21,319
Speaker 1: to to fifty eight percent week three to forty seven

867
00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:24,440
Speaker 1: percent week four. He's losing his snaps to E. T N,

868
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:26,640
Speaker 1: who has gone up from thirty seven percent week to

869
00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:29,920
Speaker 1: forty three percent week three, fifty one percent week For you,

870
00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:32,120
Speaker 1: You'll remember in week one he got a lot of

871
00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:34,839
Speaker 1: snaps and made a decent amount of errors out there.

872
00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:36,640
Speaker 1: I think he got punished week two, and he's slowly

873
00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:40,880
Speaker 1: building back to be that starter. Um, he's more involved

874
00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:44,560
Speaker 1: in the passing game than Robinson for obvious reasons. Uh

875
00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:47,600
Speaker 1: finally saw a touch count equal to Robinson's last week.

876
00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:51,640
Speaker 1: Maybe it's compared to where you drafted him, but based

877
00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:53,960
Speaker 1: on where I was a few weeks ago, I have

878
00:45:54,160 --> 00:45:56,520
Speaker 1: no concerns over et N. And we already talked last

879
00:45:56,560 --> 00:45:59,560
Speaker 1: week about seven of the next eight games are against defense.

880
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:02,520
Speaker 1: Is ranked eighteenth or worse against running backs, like he

881
00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:05,520
Speaker 1: has a great lineup of of matchups, even if he's

882
00:46:05,520 --> 00:46:07,680
Speaker 1: splitting carries. I'm not worried at all, all right, So

883
00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:10,480
Speaker 1: none is yours? None? That was a long winded way

884
00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:13,720
Speaker 1: to say that was but lots of good data in there, Brian,

885
00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:16,600
Speaker 1: What is the appropriate level of concern for Travis E.

886
00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:20,600
Speaker 1: T N? Is it none? Some or bload? I think

887
00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:22,520
Speaker 1: I have one data point that Scott failed to mention

888
00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:24,960
Speaker 1: there about I'm with him. I got none based on

889
00:46:25,239 --> 00:46:27,680
Speaker 1: his ADP hasn't lived up to that. That's kind of concerning,

890
00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:30,920
Speaker 1: but looking forward, signs are promising. His snap percentage has

891
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:33,560
Speaker 1: gone up week over week. He out snapped James Robinson

892
00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:35,279
Speaker 1: in week four, as Scott said, they had the same

893
00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:38,520
Speaker 1: amount of touches. Uh. And speaking of James Robinson, he

894
00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:41,440
Speaker 1: has gained more than three yards and just of his

895
00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:44,200
Speaker 1: carries that's the fewest in the NFL. E t N

896
00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:49,240
Speaker 1: is at he's been more efficient, alright, So no concern.

897
00:46:50,520 --> 00:46:52,399
Speaker 1: There should be some concern. And we're still talking about

898
00:46:52,440 --> 00:46:54,680
Speaker 1: a guy who's averaging four yards per carry, has really

899
00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:57,080
Speaker 1: not put together a single meaningful fantasy game. And I

900
00:46:57,120 --> 00:46:59,239
Speaker 1: don't say how. You guys can certainly be like, oh,

901
00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:02,279
Speaker 1: he's fine. But I had assumed you were gonna go

902
00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:04,000
Speaker 1: I had assumed you were going to go the other

903
00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:06,439
Speaker 1: direction on this. I had many of the same data

904
00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:09,960
Speaker 1: points on the positive side that suggests that there could

905
00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:12,640
Speaker 1: be trouble ahead for James Robinson, and but Scott already

906
00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:14,759
Speaker 1: hit on many of those. I think the upside here

907
00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:16,399
Speaker 1: for E. T N is he's got to grow into

908
00:47:16,440 --> 00:47:19,480
Speaker 1: the receiving role that he should have already had, and

909
00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:21,719
Speaker 1: for reasons I'm not clear on, they haven't used him

910
00:47:21,760 --> 00:47:24,600
Speaker 1: that way. And especially when you consider this coach of

911
00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:27,920
Speaker 1: this Peterson led coaching staff traditionally threw the backs all

912
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:31,160
Speaker 1: the time and the gods all the time in college

913
00:47:31,680 --> 00:47:35,560
Speaker 1: well later in college prom So what gives that, you know,

914
00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:37,439
Speaker 1: if I'd like to think he's going to fill that out.

915
00:47:37,480 --> 00:47:40,399
Speaker 1: There is still some level of concern for Travis et

916
00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:45,239
Speaker 1: n tough. Question number two, what's the worry word charge? Well,

917
00:47:45,719 --> 00:47:50,719
Speaker 1: I didn't say it was a question number two. What

918
00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:55,279
Speaker 1: is the appropriate level of concern for George Kittle? Is

919
00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:59,880
Speaker 1: that none? Some? Or about a loosening level of existent

920
00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:04,080
Speaker 1: hill dread Brian, I was close to bloat here, but

921
00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:06,319
Speaker 1: I'm just going with some. We wouldn't you just had

922
00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:09,319
Speaker 1: a near experience, but I'm just going so we would.

923
00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:11,319
Speaker 1: We wouldn't be having this conversation if you got both

924
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:13,120
Speaker 1: feet down in the end zone last weekend. He was

925
00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:17,040
Speaker 1: pretty pretty close. But here we are. Yes, the usage

926
00:48:17,160 --> 00:48:19,520
Speaker 1: for Kiddle has been criminal, six targets in his two

927
00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:22,400
Speaker 1: healthy games played so far, but he's still an elite

928
00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:24,680
Speaker 1: talent and look, tight end is a waste land. You

929
00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:27,120
Speaker 1: can't panic too much about George Kittle as much with

930
00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:29,960
Speaker 1: guys like Kyle Pitts and missing games. Dawson Knox is out.

931
00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:34,440
Speaker 1: I mean some concerned, but I'm uploading okay, So what

932
00:48:34,560 --> 00:48:37,040
Speaker 1: is the appropriate level of concern for George Kittle? None?

933
00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:41,240
Speaker 1: Some or so I have some as well, And honestly,

934
00:48:41,280 --> 00:48:43,520
Speaker 1: if he'd gotten his feet down and scored last week,

935
00:48:43,600 --> 00:48:45,799
Speaker 1: it wouldn't have changed my answer. Really, just one red

936
00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:49,080
Speaker 1: zone target this entire year. Over his last eight games,

937
00:48:49,120 --> 00:48:51,640
Speaker 1: including playoffs, he has just one game over thirty yards

938
00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:54,919
Speaker 1: and just one touchdown. He's blocking it a similar level

939
00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:58,000
Speaker 1: to previously, but his a dot has gone way down

940
00:48:58,040 --> 00:49:00,040
Speaker 1: because they're having him chip off the line more. I

941
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:03,640
Speaker 1: believe he ran something like nineteen routes on twenty drop

942
00:49:03,880 --> 00:49:06,000
Speaker 1: twenty six routes on thirty one dropbacks last week. But

943
00:49:06,200 --> 00:49:08,239
Speaker 1: the problem is he's chipping a lot when he goes

944
00:49:08,280 --> 00:49:10,319
Speaker 1: out for his routes, so he's not getting further down

945
00:49:10,360 --> 00:49:13,840
Speaker 1: the field. Sometimes he's not getting as open um. So

946
00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:16,480
Speaker 1: I think there's some concern once he does come back.

947
00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:19,279
Speaker 1: I'm I'm a little worried that, you know, that lower

948
00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:21,400
Speaker 1: a dot he won't have as bigger games because he

949
00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:24,560
Speaker 1: has those last year I had those huge potential blow

950
00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:27,560
Speaker 1: up games. He's still like the top tight end in

951
00:49:27,640 --> 00:49:29,759
Speaker 1: the league the last couple of years in yards after

952
00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:32,560
Speaker 1: the catch. Still he has possibilities to have those huge games.

953
00:49:32,600 --> 00:49:35,160
Speaker 1: They're probably still coming, but still some some they're not

954
00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:37,600
Speaker 1: using him the way I wish they would. They're not

955
00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:40,120
Speaker 1: using They're not using George Kittle the way they should.

956
00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:43,120
Speaker 1: We I brought this up, Yeah, it might have been

957
00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:48,120
Speaker 1: late preseason. I think George Kittle's entire career, he's been

958
00:49:48,200 --> 00:49:50,879
Speaker 1: thrown to five times on on plays inside the five

959
00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:53,279
Speaker 1: yard line. It was something crazy like that. We're like,

960
00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:56,560
Speaker 1: how do you not throw to him more? Um? And

961
00:49:56,920 --> 00:50:00,000
Speaker 1: to Brian's point, and the correct answer is some appropriate

962
00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:03,000
Speaker 1: level of concern for George Kittle. You can't just pivot

963
00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:05,960
Speaker 1: to some Rando waiver wire tight end and expect anything.

964
00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:08,640
Speaker 1: It's really really hard to pull that off and very

965
00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:11,160
Speaker 1: unlikely to do that on a regular pace here. You're

966
00:50:11,160 --> 00:50:13,279
Speaker 1: gonna have to kind of live with that. Unfortunately, his

967
00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:17,080
Speaker 1: last eight games for George Kittle two and a half catches,

968
00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:25,239
Speaker 1: twenty eight yards, zero point one two, five touchdowns per game.

969
00:50:25,480 --> 00:50:28,040
Speaker 1: It is never a good sign you're expressing a player's

970
00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:31,279
Speaker 1: touchdowns in the thousands place. I love that we had

971
00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:36,520
Speaker 1: the same exact step but framed it in two different ways. Um,

972
00:50:36,640 --> 00:50:38,120
Speaker 1: and you hit on some of my other points. He's

973
00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:39,600
Speaker 1: still running a ton of route, so they just don't

974
00:50:39,600 --> 00:50:42,680
Speaker 1: throw to him. But I'm not in a total panic.

975
00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:47,040
Speaker 1: Yet we're not blowed yet because eventually good players get utilized,

976
00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:49,560
Speaker 1: and he's too good of a player George Kittle to

977
00:50:49,680 --> 00:50:54,959
Speaker 1: not be utilized. Only some concern. Tough question number three,

978
00:50:55,320 --> 00:51:00,920
Speaker 1: What is the appropriate level of concern for Gabriel David None?

979
00:51:01,719 --> 00:51:06,400
Speaker 1: Some or a bowl loosening level of existential dread Scott

980
00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:10,640
Speaker 1: So my answer is some here, and it's mostly because

981
00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:12,879
Speaker 1: he's hurt, and he's still hurt and he's going out

982
00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:15,960
Speaker 1: there hurt. Film guys, some really good film guys this

983
00:51:16,080 --> 00:51:18,719
Speaker 1: week noted this. Uh, I'm black, and a couple I know,

984
00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:21,320
Speaker 1: Josh Norris from Underdog was one of them, showed a

985
00:51:21,360 --> 00:51:23,560
Speaker 1: couple of film clips of him like, he does not

986
00:51:23,719 --> 00:51:26,400
Speaker 1: turn quickly on his routes anymore. He's not. He's not

987
00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:31,359
Speaker 1: as crisp because he's harboring that injury um and he's

988
00:51:31,360 --> 00:51:34,279
Speaker 1: still playing almost all the snaps. He won't come off

989
00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:36,719
Speaker 1: the field for it to heal it. So I think

990
00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:39,640
Speaker 1: it's some in the short term, and if he reaggravates it,

991
00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:42,600
Speaker 1: it's only going to cause more of an issue once

992
00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:44,680
Speaker 1: he's healed. I wouldn't feel as bad, but it's some

993
00:51:44,840 --> 00:51:49,120
Speaker 1: because he's not it doesn't seem like he's letting it heal. Okay, Brian,

994
00:51:49,239 --> 00:51:52,080
Speaker 1: what is the appropriate level of concern for Gabe Davis? None?

995
00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:55,120
Speaker 1: Some are blowed, Yeah, not much to add I have

996
00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:57,560
Speaker 1: the same answer with some. He's been banged up. I'll

997
00:51:57,600 --> 00:51:59,759
Speaker 1: cut him a break. He had six touchdowns last year.

998
00:51:59,760 --> 00:52:02,360
Speaker 1: Writ know that doesn't include the four in the Division

999
00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:05,480
Speaker 1: round against the Chiefs. That was a regular season touchdowns.

1000
00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:08,080
Speaker 1: He had seven touchdowns in his rookie year. I trust

1001
00:52:08,160 --> 00:52:10,160
Speaker 1: he'll get healthy, hopefully, and when he does, he'll play

1002
00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:12,719
Speaker 1: every snap. Stefon Diggs draws a ton of attention, So

1003
00:52:13,320 --> 00:52:15,759
Speaker 1: not panicking too much yet about Gabe Davis. Just some

1004
00:52:15,960 --> 00:52:18,680
Speaker 1: level of concerns. I've got none. I you know, we

1005
00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:21,040
Speaker 1: are still talking about a player who went berserk in

1006
00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:23,680
Speaker 1: the playoffs card all those touchdowns last year when biserk

1007
00:52:23,760 --> 00:52:27,120
Speaker 1: and we won. Then this ankle injury. I'm assuming the

1008
00:52:27,200 --> 00:52:29,480
Speaker 1: ankle injury that he's not going to just play hobbled

1009
00:52:29,520 --> 00:52:31,759
Speaker 1: all year long. That it's either going to hell or

1010
00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:33,560
Speaker 1: he'll take enough time off to get it right. And

1011
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:36,320
Speaker 1: I want I want part of the number two receiving

1012
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:39,480
Speaker 1: option for Josh Allen once that once he's healthy, if

1013
00:52:39,520 --> 00:52:42,040
Speaker 1: you're good enough to dominate playoff teams, you're good enough

1014
00:52:42,040 --> 00:52:44,239
Speaker 1: to handle the regular season slate, which is also, by

1015
00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:46,719
Speaker 1: the way, very positive for the Bills. We basically had

1016
00:52:46,760 --> 00:52:48,719
Speaker 1: the same answer. I was just debating whether I should

1017
00:52:48,719 --> 00:52:51,080
Speaker 1: say some or none, because it's he's got to let

1018
00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:54,960
Speaker 1: that thing. He'll Gabriel Davis will not face a defense

1019
00:52:55,320 --> 00:53:01,080
Speaker 1: in the top twelve against wide outs until Week sixteen,

1020
00:53:02,480 --> 00:53:05,360
Speaker 1: and you'll lose your fancy championship right there, right that

1021
00:53:05,600 --> 00:53:09,319
Speaker 1: the Bears by the It's only the Bears are only

1022
00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:13,680
Speaker 1: only in the top twelve because the Bills don't care.

1023
00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:16,200
Speaker 1: They keep passing. They showed last year they keep passing

1024
00:53:16,239 --> 00:53:18,680
Speaker 1: when their head they don't care. They don't care. Titans

1025
00:53:18,719 --> 00:53:21,320
Speaker 1: steak on the Commanders. That's just a handful of players

1026
00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:22,960
Speaker 1: you're actually more than you might have guessed that we

1027
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:26,040
Speaker 1: want to talk about, including Derrick Henry. Commander's past defense

1028
00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:28,040
Speaker 1: is awful, and the run defense is pretty good, including

1029
00:53:28,120 --> 00:53:30,720
Speaker 1: completely shutting down the Eagles and the Cowboys the past

1030
00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:33,520
Speaker 1: two weeks. Henry has been good and back to back games,

1031
00:53:33,560 --> 00:53:37,640
Speaker 1: including eleven targets the last two weeks. That totally unlocks

1032
00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:40,400
Speaker 1: a whole different kind of upside for Derrick Henry. Washington

1033
00:53:40,480 --> 00:53:43,840
Speaker 1: has been solid against pass catching backs, though still hopefully

1034
00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:45,799
Speaker 1: Henry can chip in a bit through the air. I've

1035
00:53:45,840 --> 00:53:47,680
Speaker 1: just got the B grade because this is a good

1036
00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:51,759
Speaker 1: run defense, even though Derrick Henry's trucking right now. Ryan

1037
00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:53,800
Speaker 1: Tannehill was gonna take a chance, I mean quarterback, you

1038
00:53:53,840 --> 00:53:55,840
Speaker 1: may recall that from last hour, and that means I

1039
00:53:55,960 --> 00:53:59,840
Speaker 1: like his number one receiver, Robert Woods trail on Burke's is.

1040
00:54:00,200 --> 00:54:02,840
Speaker 1: So Woods becomes the go to receiver against one of

1041
00:54:02,880 --> 00:54:07,879
Speaker 1: the league's worst secondaries. Wood runs of the team's routes,

1042
00:54:07,960 --> 00:54:11,320
Speaker 1: running from every spot on the field, and positive matchups

1043
00:54:11,360 --> 00:54:14,440
Speaker 1: no matter where he's lining up, including going up against

1044
00:54:14,520 --> 00:54:17,720
Speaker 1: outside cornerbacks William Jackson and Kendall full of Good detailed

1045
00:54:17,760 --> 00:54:21,960
Speaker 1: earlier disastrous Pro Football Focus grades, and Jackson's got an

1046
00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:25,280
Speaker 1: almost perfect passer rating against him one hundred fifty five

1047
00:54:25,680 --> 00:54:27,960
Speaker 1: and full is allowed the second most passing yards among

1048
00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:30,560
Speaker 1: all cornerbacks. And that's why you could also be grade

1049
00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:33,439
Speaker 1: and Woods. That's why also Nick Westbrook A Kine comes

1050
00:54:33,480 --> 00:54:36,040
Speaker 1: in as a dart throw C grade against that same

1051
00:54:36,120 --> 00:54:39,040
Speaker 1: set of receiver or cornerbacks. So yeah, let's give him

1052
00:54:39,080 --> 00:54:41,000
Speaker 1: a crack here. What is our record for using that

1053
00:54:41,120 --> 00:54:43,160
Speaker 1: sounder in the show? I swear we're up to five

1054
00:54:43,280 --> 00:54:45,000
Speaker 1: or six. I think we're only on three. I think

1055
00:54:45,040 --> 00:54:47,279
Speaker 1: I've been pretty subdued with the dart throws. Right here,

1056
00:54:47,320 --> 00:54:49,239
Speaker 1: it's like a game of cricket. Let's go over to

1057
00:54:49,960 --> 00:54:52,040
Speaker 1: I don't understand how cricket works, but I know I'm

1058
00:54:52,040 --> 00:54:54,359
Speaker 1: a lot less interested in any sport that takes five days.

1059
00:54:54,520 --> 00:54:57,719
Speaker 1: We know that the dart game cricket. Oh that game

1060
00:54:58,440 --> 00:55:02,319
Speaker 1: like okay, okay, got it, got it. Let's go over

1061
00:55:02,320 --> 00:55:04,960
Speaker 1: to the Washington side, where I've got a surprising number

1062
00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:08,279
Speaker 1: of starters with B grades, including all parts of the

1063
00:55:08,360 --> 00:55:12,000
Speaker 1: all meaningful parts of the passing game. Carson Wentz, Terry McLaurin,

1064
00:55:12,040 --> 00:55:15,960
Speaker 1: Curtis Samuel, and Logan Thomas all coming in with B grades.

1065
00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:18,600
Speaker 1: For once. It's been a Jekyll and Hide season. I

1066
00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:21,440
Speaker 1: think we're gonna get the good version. Is Jekyll's the

1067
00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:24,799
Speaker 1: good version or Hide the good version? Jekyll good? Pretty sure,

1068
00:55:24,960 --> 00:55:27,680
Speaker 1: Jackyal good? Hide bad? Okay, let's go with that. We're

1069
00:55:27,680 --> 00:55:31,240
Speaker 1: gonna see the jackal version against a very bad Tennessee secondary.

1070
00:55:31,320 --> 00:55:34,719
Speaker 1: Tennessee is a lot surrendered the third most passing yards

1071
00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:37,719
Speaker 1: and the most passing touchdowns in the league. Now Wentz

1072
00:55:37,760 --> 00:55:40,480
Speaker 1: has been sacked the league high seventeen times. When was

1073
00:55:40,480 --> 00:55:42,719
Speaker 1: the league high before Thursday night? I think now Matt

1074
00:55:42,800 --> 00:55:45,200
Speaker 1: Ryan is the leader. He's got the extra game. Tennessee

1075
00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:48,640
Speaker 1: is registered ten sacks already, So you could get the meltdown,

1076
00:55:48,680 --> 00:55:50,600
Speaker 1: you could get the hide side of Wentz. But I'm

1077
00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:53,560
Speaker 1: on the Jekyl side of wins with the B grade,

1078
00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:56,480
Speaker 1: and that means I like McLaurin. He runs predominantly from

1079
00:55:56,520 --> 00:55:57,960
Speaker 1: the left side of the field. That puts him on

1080
00:55:58,040 --> 00:56:02,520
Speaker 1: cornerback Christian Fulton, who is allowing a perfect passer rating

1081
00:56:02,560 --> 00:56:05,800
Speaker 1: in his coverage. He is the only cornerback with that

1082
00:56:06,239 --> 00:56:10,560
Speaker 1: horrible distinction. The Titans have yielded the fourth most yards

1083
00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:13,919
Speaker 1: and second most touchdowns to receivers, which is part partly why. Also,

1084
00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:17,680
Speaker 1: like Curtis Samuel in this game, he spent seventy of

1085
00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:20,400
Speaker 1: his snaps in the slot. Rail seed quarterback Roger McCreery,

1086
00:56:20,400 --> 00:56:23,080
Speaker 1: who's giving up an eight two catch rate. I think

1087
00:56:23,120 --> 00:56:24,640
Speaker 1: you're gonna get a continue to get a lot of

1088
00:56:24,680 --> 00:56:27,560
Speaker 1: volume out of Curtis Samuel and then Logan Thomas. If

1089
00:56:27,600 --> 00:56:29,480
Speaker 1: you need a tight end, he's available, and over half

1090
00:56:29,520 --> 00:56:32,520
Speaker 1: of league still times are getting rocked by opposing tight ends,

1091
00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:36,960
Speaker 1: ranking bottom five in tight end receptions, yards and touchdowns allowed,

1092
00:56:37,239 --> 00:56:40,640
Speaker 1: including giving up one hundred eighty yards to tight ends

1093
00:56:40,760 --> 00:56:44,719
Speaker 1: last week. Logan Thomas B grade. The last guy we

1094
00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:49,279
Speaker 1: need to talk about, and it could be potentially in

1095
00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:55,879
Speaker 1: his last start of his career. Antonio Gibson. He's gotten

1096
00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:59,920
Speaker 1: declining snaps in every game. He's averaging three point three

1097
00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:05,759
Speaker 1: yards per carry, including negative yards over expectation. He's he's

1098
00:57:05,840 --> 00:57:09,160
Speaker 1: given the receiving work to j. D. Mix Suckett and

1099
00:57:09,280 --> 00:57:12,680
Speaker 1: Brian Robinson is looming. The Titans have held opposing running

1100
00:57:12,680 --> 00:57:16,840
Speaker 1: backs under seventy rushing yards per game in their last three. Basically,

1101
00:57:17,040 --> 00:57:19,360
Speaker 1: the only reason to c grade is on Antonio Gibson

1102
00:57:19,440 --> 00:57:21,440
Speaker 1: is you're hoping you can turn a dozen carries into

1103
00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:24,640
Speaker 1: forty yards and maybe he finds his way into the

1104
00:57:24,720 --> 00:57:27,959
Speaker 1: end zone before Brian Robinson shows up to take that job.

1105
00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:33,680
Speaker 1: Our final matchup of this segment is the Seahawks taking

1106
00:57:33,760 --> 00:57:38,120
Speaker 1: on the Saints. Scott Geno Smith, your offensive your reigning

1107
00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:41,520
Speaker 1: offensive player of the week in the NFC. Yeah, might

1108
00:57:41,600 --> 00:57:44,480
Speaker 1: take a chance on me player to that week. Yeah,

1109
00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:48,160
Speaker 1: very nicely done, by the way. Yes, what do you

1110
00:57:48,200 --> 00:57:50,919
Speaker 1: think about this week tougher match up with the same

1111
00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:53,160
Speaker 1: How much tougher matchup? I wouldn't expect the three and

1112
00:57:53,320 --> 00:57:55,480
Speaker 1: twenty yards and two scores through the air forty nine

1113
00:57:55,520 --> 00:57:58,240
Speaker 1: and a score on the ground quite this week much

1114
00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:00,960
Speaker 1: tougher tests Saints Steve who is allowing two and twelve

1115
00:58:01,040 --> 00:58:03,920
Speaker 1: yards and a score on average, That will be much

1116
00:58:03,960 --> 00:58:06,760
Speaker 1: more like his first two games against the Broncos and

1117
00:58:06,840 --> 00:58:09,320
Speaker 1: forty niners. But in those games and in last week

1118
00:58:09,400 --> 00:58:13,400
Speaker 1: he tallied six to seven rushes forty plus yards. He's

1119
00:58:13,400 --> 00:58:15,200
Speaker 1: got that upside that gives you a little bit more

1120
00:58:15,320 --> 00:58:18,040
Speaker 1: floor than those quarterbacks had on that Saints d I

1121
00:58:18,120 --> 00:58:19,920
Speaker 1: do have a C grade on him just for that

1122
00:58:20,160 --> 00:58:23,400
Speaker 1: probably over two yards score through the air, some rushing work.

1123
00:58:23,600 --> 00:58:27,720
Speaker 1: Um Tyler, Lockin, DK Metcalf are the only receivers I

1124
00:58:27,760 --> 00:58:29,720
Speaker 1: don't have a I don't have a grade on Disley

1125
00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:33,640
Speaker 1: that he's still splitting despite he keeps scoring touchdowns. He's

1126
00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:36,840
Speaker 1: still splitting quite a bit. And the Saints are tops

1127
00:58:36,920 --> 00:58:40,440
Speaker 1: against tight ends holding all to twenty three yards are fewer,

1128
00:58:40,720 --> 00:58:43,240
Speaker 1: but Tyler Lockett and Metcalf are the only receivers I

1129
00:58:43,280 --> 00:58:46,080
Speaker 1: got grades on B grades for both. The hope here

1130
00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:49,120
Speaker 1: is Lockett and Metcalf can recreate what Thelan and Jefferson

1131
00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:52,120
Speaker 1: did last week in London against the Saints. Uh. That

1132
00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:56,280
Speaker 1: isn't unrealistic considering the Saints had previously allowed the top

1133
00:58:56,320 --> 00:59:00,920
Speaker 1: two receivers they feast faced to see startable level production

1134
00:59:01,040 --> 00:59:03,439
Speaker 1: closer to B C level. But these two are better

1135
00:59:03,560 --> 00:59:06,040
Speaker 1: talents than the ones, a lot closer to Theinland and

1136
00:59:06,120 --> 00:59:09,960
Speaker 1: Jefferson than the ones that those other receivers that notch

1137
00:59:10,040 --> 00:59:13,400
Speaker 1: those totals. They also get way more volume. Um, they're

1138
00:59:13,440 --> 00:59:16,520
Speaker 1: combined target share with seventeen targets twenty three targets and

1139
00:59:16,640 --> 00:59:18,840
Speaker 1: eighteen targets each of the in the in the last

1140
00:59:18,920 --> 00:59:22,400
Speaker 1: three weeks. If we're talking dang near double digit targets

1141
00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:25,280
Speaker 1: for each of them, I'm going to give them B grades. Um.

1142
00:59:25,520 --> 00:59:27,760
Speaker 1: Possibly one is gonna end up with an A. I

1143
00:59:27,840 --> 00:59:29,640
Speaker 1: just don't know which one because they have been flipping

1144
00:59:29,680 --> 00:59:32,480
Speaker 1: which one is going to be the A grade each week. UM.

1145
00:59:33,840 --> 00:59:36,840
Speaker 1: On the other side, uh, Andy Dalton, I do have

1146
00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:38,600
Speaker 1: on the bench. I know you had two in thirty

1147
00:59:38,680 --> 00:59:43,760
Speaker 1: six and a score last week. Um, this is uh

1148
00:59:44,240 --> 00:59:48,480
Speaker 1: much tougher matchup here though, against the Seahawks. Yeah, against

1149
00:59:48,480 --> 00:59:51,040
Speaker 1: the Seahawks than the Vikings were. I have a B

1150
00:59:51,200 --> 00:59:55,240
Speaker 1: grade on Chris lave Lad the Saints in targets and

1151
00:59:55,360 --> 00:59:58,520
Speaker 1: yards once again on the QB change. It didn't matter

1152
00:59:58,760 --> 01:00:01,320
Speaker 1: except his upside maybe a bit because he didn't get

1153
01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:03,640
Speaker 1: as many air yards, get as much down the field,

1154
01:00:03,680 --> 01:00:06,720
Speaker 1: but he still saw the target volume. And with Michael

1155
01:00:06,760 --> 01:00:08,960
Speaker 1: Thomas out, he's going to be the main guy getting

1156
01:00:09,000 --> 01:00:12,480
Speaker 1: the work. Jarvis Landry has got the injury. He's questionable.

1157
01:00:12,760 --> 01:00:15,280
Speaker 1: He didn't even get much work last week. With with

1158
01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:17,640
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton in as well, I believe he only had

1159
01:00:17,680 --> 01:00:21,200
Speaker 1: two catches last week if I'm if I'm thinking correctly, Um,

1160
01:00:22,440 --> 01:00:25,360
Speaker 1: Camar's back. Camar should be back. He says he's playing.

1161
01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:28,240
Speaker 1: Camara says he has a hundred percent planes, so even

1162
01:00:28,280 --> 01:00:30,439
Speaker 1: though he put in a couple of limited practices this week,

1163
01:00:30,760 --> 01:00:33,200
Speaker 1: I have an A grade in a smash spot. He

1164
01:00:33,280 --> 01:00:34,720
Speaker 1: had a smash spot last week, but he's got a

1165
01:00:34,760 --> 01:00:38,120
Speaker 1: smashed spot this week as well, possibly with Dalton's checkdowns.

1166
01:00:38,560 --> 01:00:40,680
Speaker 1: I think he can do it on the ground as well.

1167
01:00:40,720 --> 01:00:43,800
Speaker 1: Because Seattle is allowing nearly a hundred seventy total yards

1168
01:00:43,880 --> 01:00:46,560
Speaker 1: on thirty touches per game to runners. Kamar is going

1169
01:00:46,600 --> 01:00:48,640
Speaker 1: to get most of that, especially now that Ottavia's Murray

1170
01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:52,160
Speaker 1: has gone shout out marketing ingram banged up, so he

1171
01:00:52,280 --> 01:00:55,600
Speaker 1: might get nearly all of that thirty touches. Yeah, that's it.

1172
01:00:55,880 --> 01:00:58,240
Speaker 1: Let's hope that Alvin Camara turns it around because his

1173
01:00:58,680 --> 01:01:02,160
Speaker 1: people who spent first round a pick on him are languishing.

1174
01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:04,760
Speaker 1: This might be, I don't know, it might be an

1175
01:01:04,800 --> 01:01:07,440
Speaker 1: opportunity to buy an Alvin Kamara. Will I will say

1176
01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:09,560
Speaker 1: he was really going in the second. There was one

1177
01:01:09,600 --> 01:01:11,640
Speaker 1: person on this show talking about taking him in the first.

1178
01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:16,600
Speaker 1: But I'm just good. Yeah with se Kwon Barkley. Yes, yes,

1179
01:01:17,080 --> 01:01:22,600
Speaker 1: I was turn Barkley tomorrow will payoff. I was, I

1180
01:01:22,720 --> 01:01:26,360
Speaker 1: was just joking. When we come back, Eagles taking on

1181
01:01:26,680 --> 01:01:29,600
Speaker 1: the Cardinals will tell you what to expect from the

1182
01:01:30,080 --> 01:01:32,400
Speaker 1: Eagle's offense, which has been running great but not always

1183
01:01:32,440 --> 01:01:34,800
Speaker 1: easy to find the right player. We'll help you figure

1184
01:01:34,840 --> 01:02:01,680
Speaker 1: that out when we come back Fantasy Football Weekly. Welcome

1185
01:02:01,720 --> 01:02:04,160
Speaker 1: back Fantasy Football Weekly. Paul Arch and Scott Fish and

1186
01:02:04,160 --> 01:02:09,160
Speaker 1: Brian Johnson with you. We continue analyzing all of the

1187
01:02:09,240 --> 01:02:12,480
Speaker 1: matchups across the NFL. Coming up next Eagles taking on

1188
01:02:12,600 --> 01:02:16,560
Speaker 1: the Cardinals. Brian, it's somebody every week's blowing up is

1189
01:02:16,600 --> 01:02:19,520
Speaker 1: a j Brown, devote Smith, and it was Miles Sanders.

1190
01:02:19,760 --> 01:02:21,720
Speaker 1: Who do you like to have the big game here

1191
01:02:21,760 --> 01:02:26,439
Speaker 1: against a relatively suspect in yielding Cardinals defense. They're they're

1192
01:02:26,520 --> 01:02:28,920
Speaker 1: kind of sneaky good the Arizona defense. We'll get into

1193
01:02:28,920 --> 01:02:31,640
Speaker 1: that line. Just the opponents don't impress. Yeah, that's a

1194
01:02:31,680 --> 01:02:33,600
Speaker 1: good point. But it was Miles Sanders who went off

1195
01:02:33,720 --> 01:02:35,240
Speaker 1: last week. But I don't think it's gonna be him

1196
01:02:35,280 --> 01:02:37,840
Speaker 1: this week. Just the sea for Sanders. The volume hasn't

1197
01:02:37,880 --> 01:02:40,160
Speaker 1: been there for opposing running backs against the Cardinals, just

1198
01:02:40,320 --> 01:02:43,320
Speaker 1: one has logged more than thirteen carries, and no loan

1199
01:02:43,360 --> 01:02:46,160
Speaker 1: back his top seventy rushing yards against Arizona, who just

1200
01:02:46,240 --> 01:02:48,760
Speaker 1: held Christian McCaffrey to twenty seven rushing yards on eight

1201
01:02:48,800 --> 01:02:51,800
Speaker 1: carries last week. McCaffrey did have nine catches for eighty

1202
01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:53,840
Speaker 1: one yards and a touchdown through the air, but Kenneth

1203
01:02:53,880 --> 01:02:55,880
Speaker 1: Gainwell was a threat to eat into that works. Hence

1204
01:02:56,040 --> 01:02:58,320
Speaker 1: the sea for Sanders. I do have Gainwall on the

1205
01:02:58,360 --> 01:03:01,520
Speaker 1: bench though, just that's not the time to start Kenneth

1206
01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:05,160
Speaker 1: over to the wide receivers for Philly, B for a J.

1207
01:03:05,360 --> 01:03:07,720
Speaker 1: Brown wanted to give him an A, but no loan

1208
01:03:07,800 --> 01:03:10,240
Speaker 1: receiver has hit at least eighty yards against the Cardinals,

1209
01:03:10,280 --> 01:03:14,440
Speaker 1: and that includes Davante Adams and Cooper cup Arizona. I

1210
01:03:14,560 --> 01:03:17,360
Speaker 1: don't see the talent there, but this is what it is.

1211
01:03:17,440 --> 01:03:19,400
Speaker 1: It is what it is. Arizona is also allowed just

1212
01:03:19,440 --> 01:03:22,880
Speaker 1: two wide receiver touchdowns all season, uh, none over the

1213
01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:26,720
Speaker 1: last two weeks. That being said, the Cardinals rank last

1214
01:03:26,840 --> 01:03:30,080
Speaker 1: and yards after the catch allowed, while Brown ranks six

1215
01:03:30,520 --> 01:03:33,200
Speaker 1: in YAK among all players. So the B for Brown

1216
01:03:33,280 --> 01:03:35,760
Speaker 1: and C for Davante Smith. Now, this has been the

1217
01:03:35,880 --> 01:03:38,280
Speaker 1: boom or bust player I think, along with Amari Cooper,

1218
01:03:38,360 --> 01:03:40,840
Speaker 1: the most boom and bust receivers in the league. What

1219
01:03:40,880 --> 01:03:43,160
Speaker 1: do you think this week? Definitely up there just to see.

1220
01:03:43,400 --> 01:03:46,520
Speaker 1: Uh he has the target share north of still which

1221
01:03:46,560 --> 01:03:49,040
Speaker 1: is good and just it's tough. You can't sit Smith.

1222
01:03:49,080 --> 01:03:51,840
Speaker 1: The Eagles up the fourth highest implied team point total

1223
01:03:51,920 --> 01:03:53,840
Speaker 1: this week, So you're just not sitting Davante Smith. He

1224
01:03:53,880 --> 01:03:56,160
Speaker 1: gets to see and you're definitely not saying Dallas got

1225
01:03:56,280 --> 01:03:58,080
Speaker 1: it this week. He gets an A, I think I

1226
01:03:58,200 --> 01:04:01,800
Speaker 1: might give him the fantasy von zi ah the Cardinal.

1227
01:04:04,480 --> 01:04:07,280
Speaker 1: I think I do it better than Fonzie. You can

1228
01:04:07,320 --> 01:04:09,200
Speaker 1: tell you can tell that to Winklers and that to

1229
01:04:09,240 --> 01:04:12,840
Speaker 1: Winkler personally. For me, I bet you do. The Cardinals

1230
01:04:12,880 --> 01:04:15,080
Speaker 1: have allowed the second most PPR points to the tight

1231
01:04:15,200 --> 01:04:18,320
Speaker 1: end position and have the worst team pass coverage grade

1232
01:04:18,360 --> 01:04:21,400
Speaker 1: according to Pro Football Focus. I just mentioned that A. J.

1233
01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:24,440
Speaker 1: Brown ranks six in yards after the catch among all players,

1234
01:04:24,960 --> 01:04:30,120
Speaker 1: Dallas Goddard second and yards all players. So I love

1235
01:04:30,240 --> 01:04:32,200
Speaker 1: Goddard this week, and of course he love Jalen heards.

1236
01:04:32,240 --> 01:04:33,480
Speaker 1: He gets an A, We're not gonna go into that

1237
01:04:33,480 --> 01:04:36,400
Speaker 1: any further over the Arizona side, James Conner, just to

1238
01:04:36,440 --> 01:04:38,240
Speaker 1: see for him. The volume has been there, but the

1239
01:04:38,280 --> 01:04:41,720
Speaker 1: efficiency has been lacking. He ranks fifty among running backs

1240
01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:45,040
Speaker 1: and yards after contact for attempt. Since Week two, no

1241
01:04:45,160 --> 01:04:47,440
Speaker 1: starting running back has been able to top thirty two

1242
01:04:47,520 --> 01:04:51,000
Speaker 1: rushing yards against the Eagles. But Philly has allowed four

1243
01:04:51,080 --> 01:04:53,120
Speaker 1: rushing touchdowns in the red zone to running back to

1244
01:04:53,200 --> 01:04:55,120
Speaker 1: this season. That's side for second most in the NFL.

1245
01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:56,800
Speaker 1: So if they get in the red zone Arizona, that

1246
01:04:56,960 --> 01:04:58,840
Speaker 1: is Connor has a chance to score. So if he

1247
01:04:58,880 --> 01:05:03,040
Speaker 1: gets to see he's Brown, he's playing at a level.

1248
01:05:03,080 --> 01:05:04,960
Speaker 1: But it's a tough match up here, so he just

1249
01:05:05,040 --> 01:05:10,120
Speaker 1: gets a B for me averaging eleven targets per game game.

1250
01:05:10,240 --> 01:05:12,480
Speaker 1: He should continue seeing that type of volume with DeAndre

1251
01:05:12,560 --> 01:05:15,440
Speaker 1: Hopkins still serving his suspension, But like I said, it's

1252
01:05:15,440 --> 01:05:17,320
Speaker 1: a tough matchup. The Eagles are allowing less than a

1253
01:05:17,400 --> 01:05:19,640
Speaker 1: hundred and forty yards per game to wide receivers as

1254
01:05:19,680 --> 01:05:22,080
Speaker 1: a whole. But on the bright side, Philly has surrendered

1255
01:05:22,120 --> 01:05:25,160
Speaker 1: two wide receiver touchdowns in two of four games, and

1256
01:05:25,440 --> 01:05:27,760
Speaker 1: Terry McLaurin topped the hundred yards against them in week three.

1257
01:05:27,760 --> 01:05:31,320
Speaker 1: So you still gotta start Brown confidently. I'm not starting

1258
01:05:31,440 --> 01:05:34,200
Speaker 1: Rondelle Moore or Greg Dortch. They're both on the bench.

1259
01:05:34,320 --> 01:05:36,720
Speaker 1: Dorte saw just one target last week. With more back

1260
01:05:36,760 --> 01:05:39,560
Speaker 1: in the lineup, More caught just three passes for eleven

1261
01:05:39,640 --> 01:05:44,040
Speaker 1: scoreless yards, the most Ryndale Moore stat line ever pretty

1262
01:05:44,160 --> 01:05:47,080
Speaker 1: much so again, tough matchup. They are both on the bench.

1263
01:05:47,120 --> 01:05:49,040
Speaker 1: But zach Ertz definitely not on the bench. In a

1264
01:05:49,120 --> 01:05:52,440
Speaker 1: revenge game against his former team, he gets a Berts

1265
01:05:52,520 --> 01:05:54,080
Speaker 1: is the only tight end to see at least two

1266
01:05:54,120 --> 01:05:56,800
Speaker 1: red zone targets in every game. He leads all tight

1267
01:05:56,920 --> 01:05:59,520
Speaker 1: ends in that category with ten. The Eagles allowed just

1268
01:05:59,640 --> 01:06:02,280
Speaker 1: three just at Jack's. Jacksonville's tight ends last week week

1269
01:06:02,320 --> 01:06:04,280
Speaker 1: without playing Evan Ingram like a bunch of idiots, not

1270
01:06:04,400 --> 01:06:07,800
Speaker 1: Dan Are, but Minnesota's tight ends combined for seven catches,

1271
01:06:08,160 --> 01:06:11,080
Speaker 1: sixty four yards and a touchdown against Philly in Week two.

1272
01:06:11,080 --> 01:06:12,680
Speaker 1: It should have been more. Yeah, it could have been

1273
01:06:12,680 --> 01:06:15,360
Speaker 1: a lot more. Dropped that long one. So but you're

1274
01:06:15,400 --> 01:06:18,440
Speaker 1: start starting earths of confidence for sure, but not starting

1275
01:06:18,520 --> 01:06:22,480
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray with confidence. I'm still starting him. Yeah, I'm

1276
01:06:22,480 --> 01:06:25,720
Speaker 1: gonna give him the same if you have a better

1277
01:06:25,800 --> 01:06:28,800
Speaker 1: option than this is one quarterback leagues only. Basically, I

1278
01:06:28,840 --> 01:06:31,560
Speaker 1: wouldn't I wouldn't say don't start Murray. But yeah, it's

1279
01:06:31,560 --> 01:06:35,160
Speaker 1: a tough matchup. Philly third in interceptions first and sacks

1280
01:06:35,520 --> 01:06:37,640
Speaker 1: and have yet to allow more than two hundred two

1281
01:06:37,720 --> 01:06:40,680
Speaker 1: hundred twenty five passing yards in any game. The Eagles

1282
01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:43,760
Speaker 1: only third highest opponent passing play percentage, which is good,

1283
01:06:44,160 --> 01:06:47,080
Speaker 1: but they are currently allowing more rushing more yards per

1284
01:06:47,160 --> 01:06:51,520
Speaker 1: rushing attempt five than per pass attempt four point eight man.

1285
01:06:51,720 --> 01:06:53,520
Speaker 1: So Murray's gotta get going on the ground to really

1286
01:06:53,560 --> 01:06:55,360
Speaker 1: have a good Fantasy day here, I say I think

1287
01:06:55,400 --> 01:06:58,840
Speaker 1: he's bench worthy, It depends, It depends who else he

1288
01:06:58,920 --> 01:07:02,800
Speaker 1: got available. Let's take Bengals and Ravens. Next. On the

1289
01:07:02,880 --> 01:07:06,040
Speaker 1: Bengal side, a grades for Joe Burrow, T Higgins and

1290
01:07:06,120 --> 01:07:09,120
Speaker 1: Jamaar Chase. You're gonna start them no matter what anyway.

1291
01:07:09,200 --> 01:07:11,440
Speaker 1: But I'll just punctuated by saying Baltimore is allowed the

1292
01:07:11,480 --> 01:07:13,800
Speaker 1: second most scores to wide receivers and they ranked dead

1293
01:07:13,960 --> 01:07:17,440
Speaker 1: last in yards allowed to wide receivers two hundred forty

1294
01:07:17,520 --> 01:07:20,760
Speaker 1: two per game just to that position. Add Alson brings

1295
01:07:20,800 --> 01:07:23,360
Speaker 1: in Tyler Boyd into this conversation. Running from the slot,

1296
01:07:23,600 --> 01:07:27,040
Speaker 1: Boyd gets the strongest individual matchup of the Bengals receivers.

1297
01:07:27,480 --> 01:07:30,000
Speaker 1: The Ravens have not found a solution it slot cornerback.

1298
01:07:30,240 --> 01:07:32,960
Speaker 1: They tried. Their first starter was a guy named Damarian Williams.

1299
01:07:33,040 --> 01:07:34,480
Speaker 1: Then he was so bad they benched him, and then

1300
01:07:34,480 --> 01:07:37,520
Speaker 1: they tried Brandon Stevens last week, and Stevens gave up

1301
01:07:37,520 --> 01:07:39,800
Speaker 1: a touchdown to his as A McKenzie out of the

1302
01:07:39,840 --> 01:07:42,080
Speaker 1: slot last week, so they don't have a solution there

1303
01:07:42,160 --> 01:07:46,200
Speaker 1: and Tyler Boyd is a nice sneaky start. But is

1304
01:07:46,280 --> 01:07:50,280
Speaker 1: he a yes? Why? Yes he is. He's a dark throw.

1305
01:07:50,840 --> 01:07:54,080
Speaker 1: He's a dark throw. Admit read us how many times

1306
01:07:54,200 --> 01:07:56,640
Speaker 1: that sounded? I believe that would be four dart throws

1307
01:07:56,640 --> 01:08:02,680
Speaker 1: in this year. I believe it's more over four dart throws.

1308
01:08:03,920 --> 01:08:06,400
Speaker 1: Hayden Hurts gets a C grade. The Ravens have surrendered

1309
01:08:06,400 --> 01:08:08,920
Speaker 1: two touchdowns of the position so far, and last season

1310
01:08:09,360 --> 01:08:12,560
Speaker 1: c Jozuma then with the Bengals total eight catches, a

1311
01:08:12,640 --> 01:08:15,000
Speaker 1: hundred twenty seven yards and two touchdowns in the two

1312
01:08:15,040 --> 01:08:17,880
Speaker 1: games against Baltimore. So if Hurts can be any close

1313
01:08:17,960 --> 01:08:19,880
Speaker 1: to what Whosoma was last year for the Bengals, a

1314
01:08:20,040 --> 01:08:22,639
Speaker 1: nice start for him. See grade. And then the show Mixon,

1315
01:08:23,200 --> 01:08:25,599
Speaker 1: who to my eyes, just look pretty lethargic. So far

1316
01:08:26,000 --> 01:08:28,720
Speaker 1: he has failed to top three yards per carry in

1317
01:08:28,880 --> 01:08:33,760
Speaker 1: any game. Awful. Fortunately they don't stop giving him the ball.

1318
01:08:34,160 --> 01:08:38,120
Speaker 1: A league leading twenty five touches per game. He's got

1319
01:08:38,200 --> 01:08:40,639
Speaker 1: a decent matchup against the Ravens team allowing the eleventh

1320
01:08:40,760 --> 01:08:43,880
Speaker 1: most total yards to opposing running backs. He's seeing, by

1321
01:08:43,920 --> 01:08:46,640
Speaker 1: the way, six targets per game for Joe Mixon, so

1322
01:08:46,680 --> 01:08:48,320
Speaker 1: he's gonna help out through the air a little bit here.

1323
01:08:48,600 --> 01:08:51,120
Speaker 1: B grade on Joe Mixon. Let's go over to the

1324
01:08:51,200 --> 01:08:54,439
Speaker 1: Baltimore side, where Mark Andrews is an obviously grade, although

1325
01:08:54,720 --> 01:08:57,040
Speaker 1: I don't Rashad Bateman getting ruled out does not help

1326
01:08:57,160 --> 01:09:00,320
Speaker 1: Mark and Rashad Bateman opens up the field with speed

1327
01:09:00,400 --> 01:09:02,680
Speaker 1: that he's got. I don't like that part, uh, And

1328
01:09:02,800 --> 01:09:04,760
Speaker 1: that's part of why I have knocked Lamar Jackson down

1329
01:09:04,800 --> 01:09:08,160
Speaker 1: to a B grade. The loss of Bateman hurts is

1330
01:09:08,280 --> 01:09:12,080
Speaker 1: the other Whiteouts, Devin DuVernay and DeMarcus Robinson are incredibly

1331
01:09:12,240 --> 01:09:15,840
Speaker 1: lightly used, averaging two catches per game apiece, and all

1332
01:09:15,920 --> 01:09:18,479
Speaker 1: of them where Bateman has eleven catches on the season,

1333
01:09:18,520 --> 01:09:21,639
Speaker 1: he's got three startable weeks because eleven catches on the season.

1334
01:09:21,720 --> 01:09:24,320
Speaker 1: Since I know, um, I just don't know where they

1335
01:09:24,400 --> 01:09:27,479
Speaker 1: go to manufacture a bunch of reps for Lamar Jackson

1336
01:09:27,520 --> 01:09:29,519
Speaker 1: and this one basically you're hoping he runs you to

1337
01:09:29,600 --> 01:09:31,920
Speaker 1: a big game. And he ran for eighty eight yards

1338
01:09:31,960 --> 01:09:35,639
Speaker 1: in last year's meeting against the Bengals, so maybe that's um,

1339
01:09:36,040 --> 01:09:39,120
Speaker 1: maybe that's a sign. So hopefully a B grade and

1340
01:09:39,200 --> 01:09:41,800
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson and then um, I've got Devin Duverney on

1341
01:09:41,840 --> 01:09:44,880
Speaker 1: the bench. Just the the two three targets per game

1342
01:09:44,920 --> 01:09:46,880
Speaker 1: and two receptions. And by the way, the cornerbacks are

1343
01:09:46,920 --> 01:09:50,439
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Eli Apple and Shadowia Woozy Air playing very well,

1344
01:09:50,600 --> 01:09:52,600
Speaker 1: so I don't I don't think we're gonna go that

1345
01:09:52,720 --> 01:09:55,040
Speaker 1: far down the depth chart in this one. Lastly, j

1346
01:09:55,160 --> 01:09:58,000
Speaker 1: K Dobbins only three point two yards per carry last week,

1347
01:09:58,040 --> 01:10:00,040
Speaker 1: but he got the two touchdowns against a very and

1348
01:10:00,160 --> 01:10:02,960
Speaker 1: Bill's defense and established himself as the go to runner.

1349
01:10:03,200 --> 01:10:06,679
Speaker 1: Justice Hillsman ruled out of this game. Cincinnati's run defense

1350
01:10:06,760 --> 01:10:09,640
Speaker 1: is good. No back is top fifty three yards, so

1351
01:10:09,760 --> 01:10:14,280
Speaker 1: we're really looking for more short touchdown runs from j K. Dobbins.

1352
01:10:15,080 --> 01:10:18,360
Speaker 1: Our final matchup of this segment forty Niners taking on

1353
01:10:18,520 --> 01:10:21,160
Speaker 1: the Panthers. Scott. Yeah, so let's start on the fourt

1354
01:10:21,240 --> 01:10:24,160
Speaker 1: Niners side. Jimmy G's let's start with this. The Panthers

1355
01:10:24,240 --> 01:10:28,760
Speaker 1: d ranks pretty much middle of the pack against every position. Uh,

1356
01:10:29,040 --> 01:10:32,280
Speaker 1: just last year they were very good against most positions

1357
01:10:32,360 --> 01:10:35,840
Speaker 1: they were. J. C. Horne is an emerging elite quarterback. Yes,

1358
01:10:37,000 --> 01:10:40,799
Speaker 1: Jacob where where where was that? Jacoby Brissetts and Brissett

1359
01:10:40,840 --> 01:10:43,920
Speaker 1: and Daniel Jones had bad days, but then they allowed

1360
01:10:43,960 --> 01:10:46,000
Speaker 1: three and fifty three and score to Winston. That was

1361
01:10:46,400 --> 01:10:48,120
Speaker 1: That's really why they're in the middle of the pack.

1362
01:10:48,240 --> 01:10:50,720
Speaker 1: Three score day to kyler Um. Some good ones, some

1363
01:10:50,800 --> 01:10:52,680
Speaker 1: bad ones. I got Jimmy g on the bench though.

1364
01:10:52,720 --> 01:10:54,799
Speaker 1: But I do have an A grade on Curtis Samuel.

1365
01:10:54,840 --> 01:10:58,280
Speaker 1: You're you're not, but nobody's pentioned deep deepo Samuel at

1366
01:10:58,320 --> 01:11:02,720
Speaker 1: all um. Yeah, the lead receiver against the Panther's the

1367
01:11:02,800 --> 01:11:05,320
Speaker 1: last two weeks combined for fifteen catches, two and thirty

1368
01:11:05,320 --> 01:11:07,840
Speaker 1: five yards in a score. I do have Brandon Auk

1369
01:11:07,880 --> 01:11:10,400
Speaker 1: on the bench, avaging just three catches and forty six

1370
01:11:10,479 --> 01:11:13,240
Speaker 1: yards per game. That's barely even sea level. And if

1371
01:11:13,240 --> 01:11:16,040
Speaker 1: you look at the second wide receiver against the Panthers,

1372
01:11:16,920 --> 01:11:19,960
Speaker 1: two for eleven, five for fifty, like these are the

1373
01:11:20,040 --> 01:11:23,760
Speaker 1: top games against this Panthers as the second receiver, I'm

1374
01:11:23,960 --> 01:11:25,680
Speaker 1: leaving him on the bench. I do have a C

1375
01:11:25,840 --> 01:11:27,880
Speaker 1: grade on Kittle. As we kind of mentioned in the

1376
01:11:27,920 --> 01:11:30,800
Speaker 1: previous segment of three tough questions, you're not benching him

1377
01:11:30,800 --> 01:11:33,160
Speaker 1: because just because he's got the obvious upset of a

1378
01:11:33,240 --> 01:11:35,479
Speaker 1: hundred plus day and a bunch of catches, but just

1379
01:11:35,840 --> 01:11:39,479
Speaker 1: if you yeah, exactly where you're gonna pivot too. And

1380
01:11:39,680 --> 01:11:42,280
Speaker 1: just just recently Earth's had a forty seven yard day

1381
01:11:42,280 --> 01:11:44,519
Speaker 1: and a score against the Panthers, so it ken get done.

1382
01:11:44,560 --> 01:11:47,360
Speaker 1: They've they've allowed some okay days, some to Earth's in

1383
01:11:47,400 --> 01:11:49,840
Speaker 1: a couple other middle of the pack tight ends. So

1384
01:11:49,920 --> 01:11:53,799
Speaker 1: I give him a C grade. Jeff Wilson Jr. B grade.

1385
01:11:54,120 --> 01:11:56,400
Speaker 1: The best part of Wilson's usages he sees it all.

1386
01:11:56,600 --> 01:11:59,320
Speaker 1: He has thirty three he's he has thirty three touches

1387
01:11:59,400 --> 01:12:02,400
Speaker 1: to three for other runners, and two of those were

1388
01:12:02,520 --> 01:12:06,320
Speaker 1: use check, you know, like, so he gets everything out

1389
01:12:06,400 --> 01:12:08,320
Speaker 1: there in those he had In the last couple of

1390
01:12:08,600 --> 01:12:12,320
Speaker 1: the two games with Mitchell and TDP ty Davis price out,

1391
01:12:12,400 --> 01:12:14,559
Speaker 1: he had a hundred eighty total yards in the score,

1392
01:12:14,760 --> 01:12:17,640
Speaker 1: so he's averaging about ninety. The Panthers got crushed by

1393
01:12:17,640 --> 01:12:20,240
Speaker 1: the Browns and Runners in Reek one Week one, but

1394
01:12:20,360 --> 01:12:22,479
Speaker 1: I allowed about eight yards per game sense to the

1395
01:12:22,560 --> 01:12:25,120
Speaker 1: lead running back. That's probably where Jeff Wilson Jr. Is

1396
01:12:25,200 --> 01:12:27,960
Speaker 1: gonna lie this game. Eight to ninety yards you hope

1397
01:12:28,000 --> 01:12:30,880
Speaker 1: for a score. But the Panthers have not allowed a

1398
01:12:30,960 --> 01:12:34,559
Speaker 1: touchdown to a lead runner yet this year, so only

1399
01:12:34,640 --> 01:12:39,280
Speaker 1: the b for Wilson over to the Panthers side. I have,

1400
01:12:39,640 --> 01:12:42,040
Speaker 1: once again for the second week in row, the entire

1401
01:12:42,120 --> 01:12:45,040
Speaker 1: passing game on the bench. I just can't trust Baker

1402
01:12:46,680 --> 01:12:48,360
Speaker 1: the best defense in the league. They have the number

1403
01:12:48,400 --> 01:12:51,080
Speaker 1: one pressure pressure rate on quarterbacks in the league. They

1404
01:12:51,280 --> 01:12:54,920
Speaker 1: get pressure on the quarterback on of their place. So

1405
01:12:55,280 --> 01:12:57,840
Speaker 1: not looking good for Mayfield. D J. Moore at eleven

1406
01:12:57,920 --> 01:13:00,960
Speaker 1: targets last week, catching six for five d That's an

1407
01:13:01,040 --> 01:13:04,719
Speaker 1: okay fantasy day. The matchup isn't great. Um the volume

1408
01:13:04,800 --> 01:13:06,880
Speaker 1: paired with being the top target against the forty nine

1409
01:13:07,040 --> 01:13:11,360
Speaker 1: the last couple weeks where nine hundred seven eight two.

1410
01:13:11,720 --> 01:13:13,599
Speaker 1: I actually just changed my mind. I think I'm giving

1411
01:13:13,680 --> 01:13:16,080
Speaker 1: d J Morris c I don't love it, but the

1412
01:13:16,200 --> 01:13:19,720
Speaker 1: top five receivers see it. Yeah, this is a This

1413
01:13:19,880 --> 01:13:22,840
Speaker 1: is a nine back on the bench points per game.

1414
01:13:22,880 --> 01:13:24,720
Speaker 1: Fine back on the bench number two and that of

1415
01:13:25,160 --> 01:13:27,160
Speaker 1: that offense is gonna have trouble. Movie. I changed my

1416
01:13:27,240 --> 01:13:33,360
Speaker 1: mind again. Back on the bench. Christian McCaffrey A grade. Yeah, yeah,

1417
01:13:34,439 --> 01:13:37,080
Speaker 1: I don't agree. Let's hear it. Well. His worst rushing

1418
01:13:37,160 --> 01:13:40,000
Speaker 1: day of the year is is nine for eighty one

1419
01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:43,200
Speaker 1: yards in the score. His worst rushing yard year. Game

1420
01:13:43,240 --> 01:13:46,559
Speaker 1: of the Year is coming up this Sunday. Okay, they're

1421
01:13:46,600 --> 01:13:48,720
Speaker 1: giving up two point eight yards per carry. This is

1422
01:13:48,760 --> 01:13:51,560
Speaker 1: the number one run defense in the NFL. That that

1423
01:13:51,800 --> 01:13:54,280
Speaker 1: is true, but it's also Christian McCaffrey. And when when

1424
01:13:54,400 --> 01:13:58,160
Speaker 1: they get behind, which they will. Mayfield showed last week

1425
01:13:58,200 --> 01:14:01,240
Speaker 1: they just targeted McCaffrey like crazy when they get behind.

1426
01:14:01,960 --> 01:14:04,120
Speaker 1: You don't think that. I don't think you're catching and targets.

1427
01:14:04,200 --> 01:14:05,920
Speaker 1: I think I think the Niners are good enough to

1428
01:14:05,960 --> 01:14:09,479
Speaker 1: snuff that out too. You're a lot more optimistic. I

1429
01:14:09,520 --> 01:14:12,000
Speaker 1: wouldn't give him an A. That wouldn't say him benching him.

1430
01:14:12,040 --> 01:14:14,600
Speaker 1: But they're allowing five to six receptions a game to

1431
01:14:15,040 --> 01:14:18,880
Speaker 1: running back. All right, fine, B plus B plus. Then

1432
01:14:19,160 --> 01:14:22,120
Speaker 1: I do want to say, last segment, I failed to

1433
01:14:22,160 --> 01:14:24,920
Speaker 1: mention Rashad Penny. I don't know how I did. I

1434
01:14:25,200 --> 01:14:27,080
Speaker 1: I actually gave him an A grade. You look on

1435
01:14:27,200 --> 01:14:29,600
Speaker 1: paper and you think New Orleans is a tough a

1436
01:14:29,680 --> 01:14:32,760
Speaker 1: tough matchup for runners, but each lead running back this

1437
01:14:33,160 --> 01:14:35,960
Speaker 1: season against them had twenty two or more touchers, averaging

1438
01:14:36,040 --> 01:14:39,280
Speaker 1: over a hundred yards Against the Seeds. Penny saw seventeen

1439
01:14:39,680 --> 01:14:42,599
Speaker 1: touches last week when he gets sixteen more touch does

1440
01:14:42,800 --> 01:14:46,360
Speaker 1: touches hundred thirty five score hundred thirty two scores hundred

1441
01:14:46,400 --> 01:14:48,680
Speaker 1: fifty seven and two scores hundred eighty five and two

1442
01:14:48,720 --> 01:14:51,000
Speaker 1: scores hundred ninety yards in the score. That's what he

1443
01:14:51,080 --> 01:14:53,519
Speaker 1: does with sixteen plus touches. I see him getting that

1444
01:14:53,600 --> 01:14:56,280
Speaker 1: again here. Well maybe not those stat lines, but I

1445
01:14:56,280 --> 01:15:00,479
Speaker 1: see him getting those touchcounts. A grade on Penny Well

1446
01:15:00,800 --> 01:15:02,680
Speaker 1: going back. I like it. You notice you missed it.

1447
01:15:03,120 --> 01:15:05,679
Speaker 1: When we come back, we'll jump in the time set

1448
01:15:05,720 --> 01:15:08,120
Speaker 1: to give you three players to pick up this week

1449
01:15:08,200 --> 01:15:11,479
Speaker 1: who you'll be glad you have next week. There was

1450
01:15:11,520 --> 01:15:15,559
Speaker 1: a little Alec Pierce last week and uh well should week.

1451
01:15:15,640 --> 01:15:17,599
Speaker 1: Somebody else had a nice hit on that too. I'm

1452
01:15:17,600 --> 01:15:19,880
Speaker 1: trying to think of who was a Tyler l Gear?

1453
01:15:20,600 --> 01:15:24,280
Speaker 1: Is that what you mentioned? I don't remember. Stay tuned

1454
01:15:24,320 --> 01:15:27,519
Speaker 1: Premature speculation. When we come back to Fantasy Football Weekly,

1455
01:15:45,760 --> 01:15:48,519
Speaker 1: final segment of Fantasy Football Weekly, Paul Jarchi and Scott

1456
01:15:48,520 --> 01:15:51,880
Speaker 1: Fish and Brian Johnson with you. This segment always leads

1457
01:15:51,920 --> 01:15:57,800
Speaker 1: off with premature speculation. We give you three players that

1458
01:15:58,000 --> 01:16:00,360
Speaker 1: are probably available in your league. The you can pick

1459
01:16:00,439 --> 01:16:02,439
Speaker 1: up now when other people will be trying to pick

1460
01:16:02,560 --> 01:16:05,680
Speaker 1: up next week. Scott, I'll let you begin. Did you

1461
01:16:05,800 --> 01:16:08,920
Speaker 1: who does your premature speculation player? First off, I want

1462
01:16:08,920 --> 01:16:11,400
Speaker 1: a petition to get the quantum leap leaping sound as

1463
01:16:11,439 --> 01:16:13,639
Speaker 1: our time machine sound going forward. I think we should

1464
01:16:13,680 --> 01:16:17,120
Speaker 1: talk about this in in the coming weeks. I'm all

1465
01:16:17,160 --> 01:16:23,360
Speaker 1: for it, alright, I'm not married to alrightee to it?

1466
01:16:23,479 --> 01:16:26,200
Speaker 1: Does that? I know what it would sound like. Would

1467
01:16:26,200 --> 01:16:29,839
Speaker 1: it even sound like anything? We don't know. We'll just assume.

1468
01:16:30,720 --> 01:16:34,479
Speaker 1: Uh Khalil Shakire is my guy with a broken ankle

1469
01:16:34,560 --> 01:16:38,040
Speaker 1: to Crowder who was splitting reps with Mackenzie. Uh Kalil

1470
01:16:38,080 --> 01:16:41,960
Speaker 1: Shakire came in and split reps last week. Mackenzie has

1471
01:16:42,000 --> 01:16:45,960
Speaker 1: a concussion, has not cleared protocol yet. If he doesn't go,

1472
01:16:46,439 --> 01:16:49,280
Speaker 1: Shakire might be the starting slot receiver for an offense

1473
01:16:49,360 --> 01:16:51,560
Speaker 1: that targeted this lot more than any other offense in

1474
01:16:51,600 --> 01:16:54,840
Speaker 1: the last year, in four games or whatever. Uh. He

1475
01:16:55,040 --> 01:16:57,240
Speaker 1: could start to ball out here, and you want to

1476
01:16:57,320 --> 01:16:59,519
Speaker 1: get him before he balls out, and then everybody's going

1477
01:16:59,560 --> 01:17:02,439
Speaker 1: after him with waivers next week. All right, your premature

1478
01:17:02,520 --> 01:17:06,479
Speaker 1: speculation player, Brian got Jacksonville wide receiver Jamal Agnew, who

1479
01:17:06,520 --> 01:17:10,360
Speaker 1: scored twice last week. With Z Jones out, Agnew could

1480
01:17:10,400 --> 01:17:13,920
Speaker 1: be a key component to now dangerous Jacksonville offense. Z

1481
01:17:14,080 --> 01:17:16,160
Speaker 1: Jones is coming back this week, so ag Knew probably

1482
01:17:16,280 --> 01:17:18,320
Speaker 1: to the bench, will still play. But if one of

1483
01:17:18,320 --> 01:17:21,240
Speaker 1: the Joneses gets hurt on the outside like happened last week,

1484
01:17:21,320 --> 01:17:24,240
Speaker 1: Christian Kirk goes to the outside and Agnew's in the slot.

1485
01:17:24,280 --> 01:17:26,360
Speaker 1: If Kirk gets hurt, Agnew will take over the slot

1486
01:17:26,439 --> 01:17:29,080
Speaker 1: and Agnew can produce when given the opportunity. He's now

1487
01:17:29,160 --> 01:17:32,240
Speaker 1: seen at least six targets in four of Jacksonville's last

1488
01:17:32,280 --> 01:17:34,920
Speaker 1: eleven games, and in those four games, he's averaging five

1489
01:17:34,960 --> 01:17:37,599
Speaker 1: plus catches and fifty plus yards with three total touchdowns.

1490
01:17:37,640 --> 01:17:42,080
Speaker 1: So Jamal Agnew is multiple Jones. Jones is Jones, Jones,

1491
01:17:42,160 --> 01:17:44,840
Speaker 1: I j Jones. If either the Jones I get her

1492
01:17:44,920 --> 01:17:46,720
Speaker 1: to get hurt, I think I like that better. And

1493
01:17:46,800 --> 01:17:49,960
Speaker 1: that's Marvin and Z from Marvin. Yeah no, no no relation,

1494
01:17:50,120 --> 01:17:53,640
Speaker 1: No relation by premature speculation. Player. Now this is a

1495
01:17:53,680 --> 01:17:56,560
Speaker 1: little complex. Just stick with me on this, Okay. This

1496
01:17:56,760 --> 01:18:02,960
Speaker 1: is fantasy football four thousand level, okay. Cor Darryl Patterson's

1497
01:18:02,960 --> 01:18:04,640
Speaker 1: on I R and that means he's gonna miss at

1498
01:18:04,720 --> 01:18:06,760
Speaker 1: least a month and maybe more, but no less than

1499
01:18:06,760 --> 01:18:10,080
Speaker 1: a month. And without him this week, the Falcons are

1500
01:18:10,080 --> 01:18:13,799
Speaker 1: gonna try Tyler L. Gear and Caleb Huntley on Sunday

1501
01:18:13,880 --> 01:18:16,559
Speaker 1: in a brutal matchup with Tampa Bay's elite run defense,

1502
01:18:16,920 --> 01:18:22,360
Speaker 1: and they are likely to unimpress. And then, conveniently, Damien

1503
01:18:22,479 --> 01:18:26,320
Speaker 1: Williams comes off i R next week to resume his

1504
01:18:26,479 --> 01:18:30,080
Speaker 1: spot as Patterson's immediate backup. He's gonna walk into the

1505
01:18:30,160 --> 01:18:34,080
Speaker 1: starting job. You can go pick up a starting NFL

1506
01:18:34,280 --> 01:18:39,320
Speaker 1: running back right now for next week in Damien Williams.

1507
01:18:39,400 --> 01:18:44,240
Speaker 1: Now complicated, complicated, there's a lot of this. This well,

1508
01:18:44,360 --> 01:18:49,360
Speaker 1: your your professor for the layman. This Damian Williams angle

1509
01:18:49,479 --> 01:18:52,680
Speaker 1: is extremely sophisticated. Now it's a rib injury for him.

1510
01:18:52,720 --> 01:18:54,479
Speaker 1: It's not a leg injury. It's not something it's gonna

1511
01:18:54,479 --> 01:18:58,920
Speaker 1: hampers running and all probability he could have already come back. Um. Now,

1512
01:18:59,040 --> 01:19:00,800
Speaker 1: it's a tough matchup now this week against the forty

1513
01:19:00,880 --> 01:19:02,680
Speaker 1: nine years for Damian Williams. So you may have to

1514
01:19:02,680 --> 01:19:04,479
Speaker 1: show caution and starting him next week, but after that

1515
01:19:04,560 --> 01:19:08,519
Speaker 1: it's clear sailing Williams and Arthur Smith mentioned this week.

1516
01:19:08,560 --> 01:19:11,560
Speaker 1: When asked about him, he about next week's matchup, he

1517
01:19:11,600 --> 01:19:14,360
Speaker 1: basically said, we'll be getting him back, So it sounds

1518
01:19:14,400 --> 01:19:17,880
Speaker 1: like he's Damien Williams available in I'm gonna make this

1519
01:19:18,080 --> 01:19:21,880
Speaker 1: up three and a half. Let's go to our final

1520
01:19:22,040 --> 01:19:26,400
Speaker 1: set of matchups, beginning with the Cowboys taking on the Rams. Bryan, Yeah,

1521
01:19:26,439 --> 01:19:28,439
Speaker 1: starting with the Zekiel elliott I was close to a

1522
01:19:28,520 --> 01:19:30,120
Speaker 1: bench grade here, but I can give him a see

1523
01:19:30,160 --> 01:19:32,799
Speaker 1: based on volume. He's hopecially if Paula doesn't play, especially

1524
01:19:32,840 --> 01:19:35,320
Speaker 1: if Paula doesn't play. Paula on the bench either way.

1525
01:19:35,400 --> 01:19:37,439
Speaker 1: By the way, but Zeke has at least fifteen carries

1526
01:19:37,479 --> 01:19:40,759
Speaker 1: in three straight games, and it's possible that Dallas dominates

1527
01:19:40,800 --> 01:19:42,800
Speaker 1: time of possession of this game because the Rams offense

1528
01:19:42,840 --> 01:19:44,960
Speaker 1: has been that bad in Dallas' defense has been that good.

1529
01:19:45,439 --> 01:19:47,439
Speaker 1: But on paper it's a bad matchup for Zeke. The

1530
01:19:47,560 --> 01:19:49,840
Speaker 1: Rams have allowed the fewest fantasy points to running back

1531
01:19:49,880 --> 01:19:52,599
Speaker 1: so far the season. So just to see for Zeke

1532
01:19:52,880 --> 01:19:54,439
Speaker 1: uh the opposite well, I don't know if it's an

1533
01:19:54,439 --> 01:19:56,519
Speaker 1: opposite of a sea, but it's an a for seedeve

1534
01:19:56,640 --> 01:19:59,880
Speaker 1: lamb uh gone or the days of fearing Jalen Ram

1535
01:20:00,080 --> 01:20:03,719
Speaker 1: he is a shutdown quarter He's falling off that Josh

1536
01:20:03,840 --> 01:20:07,240
Speaker 1: Norman Cliff l A has been shredded by wide receivers,

1537
01:20:07,280 --> 01:20:10,759
Speaker 1: allowing more than seventeen catches, two hundred and twelve yards

1538
01:20:10,800 --> 01:20:13,839
Speaker 1: and one and a half touchdowns per game to the position,

1539
01:20:13,880 --> 01:20:16,320
Speaker 1: and Lamb has turned into a target hog, which is

1540
01:20:16,360 --> 01:20:18,400
Speaker 1: what we all expected on this show. So easy A

1541
01:20:18,560 --> 01:20:21,600
Speaker 1: for c d and uh CE for Michael Gallup and

1542
01:20:21,680 --> 01:20:25,479
Speaker 1: Noah Brown. Gallops route participation was over in his first

1543
01:20:25,560 --> 01:20:28,240
Speaker 1: game back last week. He also scored a touchdown, which

1544
01:20:28,280 --> 01:20:30,560
Speaker 1: was very encouraging. I like him more than Brown, but

1545
01:20:30,600 --> 01:20:32,439
Speaker 1: I would start both because again, this is such a

1546
01:20:32,520 --> 01:20:35,519
Speaker 1: cake matchup for wide receivers, but not so much for

1547
01:20:35,600 --> 01:20:38,240
Speaker 1: Dalton Schultz. He is making his return this week, but

1548
01:20:38,280 --> 01:20:40,360
Speaker 1: I have him on the bench. The Rams ranked second

1549
01:20:40,400 --> 01:20:43,080
Speaker 1: and fewest fantasy points allowed to tight ends, and that

1550
01:20:43,200 --> 01:20:46,479
Speaker 1: includes shutting down guys like Dawson Knox, zach Ertz and

1551
01:20:46,520 --> 01:20:49,640
Speaker 1: George Kittle. So on bench benching Shultz this week. But

1552
01:20:49,920 --> 01:20:53,439
Speaker 1: Cooper cut I still do it Cooper rush and they're

1553
01:20:53,439 --> 01:20:56,360
Speaker 1: playing in the same game. Cooper rush with Scott's take

1554
01:20:56,360 --> 01:20:58,080
Speaker 1: a chance of a quarterback, so he is not on

1555
01:20:58,160 --> 01:21:01,799
Speaker 1: the bench over to the am side, starting with Cam Acres,

1556
01:21:01,880 --> 01:21:05,599
Speaker 1: who was I'll give him a scene start running back

1557
01:21:05,600 --> 01:21:08,840
Speaker 1: in the league. Cowboys are allowing four yards per carrying

1558
01:21:08,880 --> 01:21:11,040
Speaker 1: more than five catches per game to opposing running backs.

1559
01:21:11,080 --> 01:21:14,120
Speaker 1: What I mentioned earlier. Uh Acres is still the starter,

1560
01:21:14,320 --> 01:21:17,600
Speaker 1: but he only had nine opportunities last week to the

1561
01:21:17,640 --> 01:21:21,240
Speaker 1: eleven from Darryl Henderson. Henderson was way more productive. That's

1562
01:21:21,240 --> 01:21:22,960
Speaker 1: why I used my take a chance on me running back.

1563
01:21:22,960 --> 01:21:24,599
Speaker 1: I like him more than Acres, so but they both

1564
01:21:24,920 --> 01:21:27,920
Speaker 1: basically get to see here. Who does not get to

1565
01:21:27,960 --> 01:21:31,160
Speaker 1: see as Cooper Cup in a I want to say

1566
01:21:31,240 --> 01:21:33,439
Speaker 1: some things here. It's an obviously. I think we have

1567
01:21:33,520 --> 01:21:37,439
Speaker 1: the time. Nineteen targets last week, the Cup the rest

1568
01:21:37,479 --> 01:21:41,320
Speaker 1: of the Rams Rams wide receivers combined for nine nine

1569
01:21:41,400 --> 01:21:46,080
Speaker 1: times they were targeted. There we go comin now. The

1570
01:21:46,120 --> 01:21:48,640
Speaker 1: Cowboys are top twelve and the fewest catches, yards and

1571
01:21:48,720 --> 01:21:51,200
Speaker 1: touchdowns allowed to wide receivers. But Cup has played over

1572
01:21:51,280 --> 01:21:53,360
Speaker 1: fifty of his snaps from the slot meeting. He see

1573
01:21:53,400 --> 01:21:56,760
Speaker 1: he'll see plenty of fifth round rookie Torn Bland, who

1574
01:21:56,840 --> 01:21:59,720
Speaker 1: was targeted eleven times last week by Washington, allowing nine

1575
01:21:59,760 --> 01:22:03,000
Speaker 1: catches for nine yards of Cooper. Cooper Cup should be

1576
01:22:03,080 --> 01:22:05,760
Speaker 1: in for a big day. Allen Robinson Polleague not in

1577
01:22:05,840 --> 01:22:09,840
Speaker 1: for a big day. He was on the bench. Russell

1578
01:22:09,880 --> 01:22:12,200
Speaker 1: Wilson the last couple of years. I was so wrong

1579
01:22:12,280 --> 01:22:15,160
Speaker 1: on Alan Robinson, Like that might have been my biggest miss.

1580
01:22:15,320 --> 01:22:17,400
Speaker 1: I'm not. I was very high on him too. I'm like,

1581
01:22:17,760 --> 01:22:20,519
Speaker 1: I'm not dropping him yet, but this is not the

1582
01:22:20,560 --> 01:22:23,280
Speaker 1: matchup for him to get right. He is on the bench.

1583
01:22:23,800 --> 01:22:25,720
Speaker 1: Tyler Higbee not on the bench, So I'm gonna give

1584
01:22:25,760 --> 01:22:27,519
Speaker 1: him a B in the tight end waste Land. Through

1585
01:22:27,560 --> 01:22:30,280
Speaker 1: four games, he leads all tight ends and total targets,

1586
01:22:30,640 --> 01:22:33,160
Speaker 1: and the Cowboys have allowed the seventh most perceptions too

1587
01:22:33,200 --> 01:22:35,800
Speaker 1: tight ends this season. So start Higbee with confidence, but

1588
01:22:35,880 --> 01:22:38,160
Speaker 1: do not start Matt Stafford. I got him on the bench.

1589
01:22:38,520 --> 01:22:41,679
Speaker 1: The Cowboys have allowed just three passing touchdowns through four games,

1590
01:22:41,760 --> 01:22:44,320
Speaker 1: and just one opposing quarterback has been able to crack

1591
01:22:44,360 --> 01:22:46,280
Speaker 1: two hundred yards and that was Tom Brady with two

1592
01:22:46,360 --> 01:22:51,120
Speaker 1: hundred and twelve in Week one. Stafford's offensive line isn't shambles.

1593
01:22:51,760 --> 01:22:55,160
Speaker 1: He's been sacked sixteen times already, which is very bad

1594
01:22:55,240 --> 01:22:58,160
Speaker 1: news considering the cowboys only fourth highest sack percentage in

1595
01:22:58,200 --> 01:23:02,080
Speaker 1: the league. Thankfully on gay in most parts of Michael Parsons,

1596
01:23:02,080 --> 01:23:05,360
Speaker 1: Who's a beast? He is a beast. Final matchup is

1597
01:23:05,400 --> 01:23:08,080
Speaker 1: your Monday Night at Raiders taking on the Chiefs. Davante

1598
01:23:08,080 --> 01:23:10,879
Speaker 1: Adams obvious A. But let's move on to Hunter Renfro

1599
01:23:11,080 --> 01:23:14,920
Speaker 1: making his return from concussion. He's gonna draw Lagarius Sneed

1600
01:23:14,960 --> 01:23:17,200
Speaker 1: in the slot. Snead is a lot of completion rate

1601
01:23:17,200 --> 01:23:19,720
Speaker 1: of seventy eight percent. He's given up two touchdowns in

1602
01:23:19,760 --> 01:23:22,000
Speaker 1: a passer rating of a hundred twenty one. He was

1603
01:23:22,040 --> 01:23:25,839
Speaker 1: targeted sixteen times in his two games before the concussion

1604
01:23:25,920 --> 01:23:28,120
Speaker 1: Renfro was, so I think he goes back to getting

1605
01:23:28,200 --> 01:23:31,400
Speaker 1: heavy doses here and to B grade on Hunter Renfroll,

1606
01:23:31,479 --> 01:23:34,960
Speaker 1: let's get him back into lineups that really hurts Mac Hollins.

1607
01:23:35,479 --> 01:23:38,800
Speaker 1: Presumably Renfro is gonna eat into the production you've seen

1608
01:23:38,840 --> 01:23:41,640
Speaker 1: because Hollands was good in the games without Renfron did

1609
01:23:41,720 --> 01:23:44,320
Speaker 1: very little with the games with Renfro. So I'm still

1610
01:23:44,439 --> 01:23:46,519
Speaker 1: keeping a C grade on him because he's performed well.

1611
01:23:46,760 --> 01:23:49,240
Speaker 1: He'll match up on the outside with Jalen Watson and

1612
01:23:49,400 --> 01:23:53,400
Speaker 1: Rashad Fenton, middling talents with Pro Football Focus grades of

1613
01:23:53,720 --> 01:23:58,000
Speaker 1: cornerback fifty two and cornerback fifty four, respectively. So I've

1614
01:23:58,000 --> 01:24:00,280
Speaker 1: got an a B in a C gray aid on

1615
01:24:00,320 --> 01:24:03,200
Speaker 1: the receiver. So I've got a B grade on Derek Carr.

1616
01:24:03,360 --> 01:24:05,679
Speaker 1: Real quick on Renfrown his two games against the Chiefs

1617
01:24:05,800 --> 01:24:08,719
Speaker 1: last year thirteen for one and seventeen in a touchdown,

1618
01:24:08,840 --> 01:24:11,439
Speaker 1: seven forty six and a touchdown. We would take that. Yeah,

1619
01:24:11,800 --> 01:24:15,560
Speaker 1: not bad Derek Carr. Every opposing quarterback has multiple touchdowns

1620
01:24:15,600 --> 01:24:17,719
Speaker 1: and two of the last three of top three hundred

1621
01:24:17,840 --> 01:24:20,679
Speaker 1: thirty four yards. So I like that against the Chiefs.

1622
01:24:20,760 --> 01:24:22,760
Speaker 1: Chiefs run defense has been great and that's gonna force

1623
01:24:22,840 --> 01:24:25,880
Speaker 1: more throws from Car. Chiefs are seeing the second most

1624
01:24:26,000 --> 01:24:29,040
Speaker 1: pass attempts and that volume is gonna aid Car as well.

1625
01:24:29,160 --> 01:24:31,760
Speaker 1: I think he's a safe B in this one. Let's

1626
01:24:31,760 --> 01:24:34,920
Speaker 1: talk about Josh Jacobs. Our preseason talk about the Raider.

1627
01:24:34,960 --> 01:24:37,760
Speaker 1: Remember in preseason we're like, Hey, maybe they're just gonna

1628
01:24:37,920 --> 01:24:41,479
Speaker 1: grind up Josh Jacobs and use them all up and

1629
01:24:41,520 --> 01:24:43,800
Speaker 1: then let him go to free agency. That's happening right now,

1630
01:24:44,320 --> 01:24:47,160
Speaker 1: and that's good for fantasy use. He's got a hundred

1631
01:24:47,400 --> 01:24:51,200
Speaker 1: thirty more snaps than any other veggat runner he said

1632
01:24:51,240 --> 01:24:53,639
Speaker 1: almost five yards per carry. But the Chiefs are allowing

1633
01:24:53,680 --> 01:24:56,320
Speaker 1: the fewest rushing yards just fifty two per game, and

1634
01:24:56,320 --> 01:24:58,920
Speaker 1: they're only giving up three point one yards per carry.

1635
01:24:59,439 --> 01:25:02,000
Speaker 1: Now he is where Jacobs can help you. Kansas City

1636
01:25:02,080 --> 01:25:05,839
Speaker 1: is dead last in receptions and receiving yards two runners.

1637
01:25:06,080 --> 01:25:09,160
Speaker 1: They're giving him ten catches in seventy yards per game.

1638
01:25:09,479 --> 01:25:11,439
Speaker 1: Jacobs is not a gifted receiver, but I could see

1639
01:25:11,520 --> 01:25:13,960
Speaker 1: him getting four or five catches for forty or fifties.

1640
01:25:14,520 --> 01:25:17,280
Speaker 1: He can do it. He can remember the overreaction because

1641
01:25:17,280 --> 01:25:19,559
Speaker 1: he played like two series in the Hall of Fame

1642
01:25:19,600 --> 01:25:22,439
Speaker 1: game and everything like, oh he's a bone. He's playing

1643
01:25:22,439 --> 01:25:25,800
Speaker 1: in the preseason, right, be great on Josh Jacobs based

1644
01:25:25,840 --> 01:25:28,760
Speaker 1: on him helping you out in PPR as well. Let's

1645
01:25:28,800 --> 01:25:31,080
Speaker 1: go to the Kansas City side. Obviously, Patrick Mahomes and

1646
01:25:31,120 --> 01:25:33,320
Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey were obvious, as that only leaves us with

1647
01:25:33,360 --> 01:25:36,120
Speaker 1: a couple more players to talk about. Ju Juice Smith

1648
01:25:36,160 --> 01:25:39,479
Speaker 1: Schuster behind only Travis Kelsey and targets. He's hauled in

1649
01:25:39,479 --> 01:25:41,600
Speaker 1: at least five passes and three or four games, so

1650
01:25:41,680 --> 01:25:43,799
Speaker 1: he gives you a little bit of a floor. Mahomes

1651
01:25:43,840 --> 01:25:47,080
Speaker 1: has torched the Raiders for eleven passing touchdowns in the

1652
01:25:47,200 --> 01:25:49,880
Speaker 1: last four meetings, so you figure this one has got

1653
01:25:49,960 --> 01:25:53,040
Speaker 1: a decent chance to be Juju Smith Schuster's first touchdown

1654
01:25:53,120 --> 01:25:56,360
Speaker 1: as a member of Kansas City. He's gonna face struggling

1655
01:25:56,439 --> 01:25:59,280
Speaker 1: cornerback a Meek Roberts and the most he's allowed to

1656
01:25:59,320 --> 01:26:01,080
Speaker 1: score in two of the last three games, and he's

1657
01:26:01,120 --> 01:26:04,439
Speaker 1: surrendered a perfect one D fifty eight point three passer

1658
01:26:04,520 --> 01:26:09,360
Speaker 1: rating against Denver's aerial attack last week. Russell Wilson led

1659
01:26:09,400 --> 01:26:11,320
Speaker 1: aerial attack last week, and that leaves us with Clyde

1660
01:26:11,400 --> 01:26:14,360
Speaker 1: Edwards Hilaire inexplicably coming off his best game of the

1661
01:26:14,439 --> 01:26:18,479
Speaker 1: year against Tampa's elite run defense one week after giving

1662
01:26:18,520 --> 01:26:22,240
Speaker 1: you zero rushing yards. Total volatility here, but at last

1663
01:26:22,280 --> 01:26:25,320
Speaker 1: he's carved out some consistency through the air. He's hauled

1664
01:26:25,360 --> 01:26:28,720
Speaker 1: in thirteen of fourteen targets, He's scored three times through

1665
01:26:28,800 --> 01:26:31,280
Speaker 1: the air, and the Raiders are allowing the fourth most

1666
01:26:31,400 --> 01:26:34,599
Speaker 1: receiving yards to opposing running backs. So I think he's

1667
01:26:34,640 --> 01:26:36,479
Speaker 1: gonna help you out one way or another, and largely

1668
01:26:36,520 --> 01:26:38,320
Speaker 1: through the air. So we'll get a B grade on

1669
01:26:38,439 --> 01:26:43,439
Speaker 1: Clyde Edwards how you feel about him generally, But Jacob

1670
01:26:43,640 --> 01:26:45,800
Speaker 1: will take over that job sooner than later, not this

1671
01:26:45,920 --> 01:26:49,240
Speaker 1: week probably if you're watching that guy run mean, man,

1672
01:26:49,520 --> 01:26:53,360
Speaker 1: are we dropping Russell Wilson out right? Sure? Yeah? You

1673
01:26:53,479 --> 01:26:56,640
Speaker 1: know how I feel. Yeah, I've been very clear. We

1674
01:26:56,720 --> 01:26:58,400
Speaker 1: were we were in we were in lock step on

1675
01:26:58,479 --> 01:27:00,880
Speaker 1: this weeks ago where we talked about how this was

1676
01:27:01,080 --> 01:27:03,559
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, the guy we had saw Earlian was exactly

1677
01:27:03,640 --> 01:27:06,080
Speaker 1: who he was gonna be. So now you're heading into

1678
01:27:06,640 --> 01:27:10,360
Speaker 1: next week's waiver claims. I think you're dropping Russell Wilson

1679
01:27:10,560 --> 01:27:13,840
Speaker 1: Wilson Country. Is it even a sabotage? I don't know

1680
01:27:13,960 --> 01:27:17,080
Speaker 1: that he gets picked up. Honestly, he's just now an

1681
01:27:17,120 --> 01:27:20,000
Speaker 1: open roster spot. It's right, it's not a sabotage. Drop.

1682
01:27:20,080 --> 01:27:23,200
Speaker 1: Talk to me about the the backfield for Denver. What

1683
01:27:23,360 --> 01:27:27,120
Speaker 1: did we learn on Thursday about Melvin Gordon? Boone? Anybody

1684
01:27:27,200 --> 01:27:29,320
Speaker 1: else that you might that might have caught your eye?

1685
01:27:30,040 --> 01:27:34,120
Speaker 1: R Boone looked a little Gordon had over a hundred compyards.

1686
01:27:34,240 --> 01:27:37,559
Speaker 1: Boone looked more explosive than didn't He just three point

1687
01:27:37,800 --> 01:27:40,200
Speaker 1: six yards per carry from Melvin Gordon, which is what

1688
01:27:40,280 --> 01:27:43,080
Speaker 1: he's been giving you all year too. It's bringing nothing

1689
01:27:43,160 --> 01:27:48,839
Speaker 1: to the table and well didn't you almost fumbled, almost fumbled,

1690
01:27:48,960 --> 01:27:51,240
Speaker 1: but did not end up losing a fumble last game.

1691
01:27:51,760 --> 01:27:54,200
Speaker 1: I think Mike Boon is still lurking as a potential issue,

1692
01:27:54,240 --> 01:27:57,320
Speaker 1: and maybe Latavius Murray long term because I don't trust

1693
01:27:57,360 --> 01:28:00,040
Speaker 1: Melvin Cordon to hold that Las Murray hasn't fumbled in

1694
01:28:00,120 --> 01:28:05,080
Speaker 1: twenty one games. There, be sure to join a Guillantem league.
