WEBVTT - Week 5: A Show So Good, It's Illegal In 49 States 0:00:01.160 --> 0:00:04.880 Welcome to Fantasy Football Weekly, a production of I Heart Radio. 0:00:06.920 --> 0:00:10.760 Time now for Fantasy Football Weekly from I Heart Radio, 0:00:11.240 --> 0:00:15.560 your weekly source for the nation's best fantasy speculation and advice, 0:00:16.320 --> 0:00:25.640 Now league dot Com. Here's your host. Welcome to Fantasy 0:00:25.680 --> 0:00:28.160 Football Weekly. I'm Paul Charchi and my co host today 0:00:28.200 --> 0:00:32.199 are Scott Fish and Matt Harrison. Hello, gentlemen, what's up. 0:00:32.240 --> 0:00:35.760 Excited to be on the last show of Stop It, 0:00:36.120 --> 0:00:38.360 Stop It, It's gonna be It's all gonna be fine, 0:00:39.320 --> 0:00:42.200 Gonna get out of here, Scott Fish. Yes, we're gonna 0:00:42.400 --> 0:00:45.720 want any of that negativity in this. Spound about this, 0:00:46.080 --> 0:00:49.560 and I think the only real game that's in doubt 0:00:49.640 --> 0:00:52.640 right now is Buffalo Tennessee. We talked about it last week. 0:00:53.000 --> 0:00:56.920 Let's just spend a second reiterating some of the best 0:00:57.000 --> 0:01:01.120 way to handle the possibility of a last minute game cancelation. 0:01:01.520 --> 0:01:05.240 We discussed it last weekend with the provisional player. Yeah, 0:01:05.319 --> 0:01:07.759 we can do the provisional player. And that was something 0:01:07.800 --> 0:01:10.959 that Ryan McDowell, I know, suggested on Twitter, where you 0:01:11.000 --> 0:01:13.840 put on your league's message board. For instance, if you 0:01:13.880 --> 0:01:16.840 have Derrick Henry, yes, who's by the way, put him 0:01:16.840 --> 0:01:19.119 in your flex spot, not in your running back spot, 0:01:19.400 --> 0:01:21.800 you have maximum flexibility. So let's say that he's in 0:01:21.800 --> 0:01:25.959 your flex spot and I have how about Justin Jefferson 0:01:26.560 --> 0:01:29.880 as the wide receiver that I have as my provisional 0:01:30.000 --> 0:01:33.399 starter in case Derrick Henry's game does not go So 0:01:33.480 --> 0:01:37.440 if the Tennessee game is canceled, then Justin Jefferson's stats 0:01:37.480 --> 0:01:40.320 get put in by my league manager. Commission will need 0:01:40.360 --> 0:01:43.039 to manually make that adjustment. That's all fine. You posted 0:01:43.080 --> 0:01:45.759 on the message board, so everybody knows that you've designated 0:01:45.800 --> 0:01:49.280 that before Justin Jefferson plays his game, and that's something 0:01:49.320 --> 0:01:51.600 it's not too late to do that for this week 0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:55.200 in your league. You can definitely make this decision now, Commissioners, 0:01:55.320 --> 0:01:58.080 this is the way to handle this. It is the 0:01:58.120 --> 0:02:02.400 most fair way. There's no thing fair about managers having 0:02:02.400 --> 0:02:07.400 to guess whether or not there will be a game 0:02:07.400 --> 0:02:11.240 on Camesday, right game Monday or Tuesday or canceled. You 0:02:11.240 --> 0:02:14.120 know that's not evaluating the skill of a manager. So 0:02:14.600 --> 0:02:17.040 that's the way you certainly want to handle it. We'll 0:02:17.040 --> 0:02:19.600 talk about that game in just a moment. A reminder, 0:02:20.600 --> 0:02:23.280 the segments that we love to get to will happen 0:02:23.280 --> 0:02:25.839 over the course of the show, including premature speculation where 0:02:25.880 --> 0:02:27.839 we give you three players to pick up this week 0:02:27.880 --> 0:02:30.680 that people will wish they had picked up this week, 0:02:30.760 --> 0:02:32.680 but it's actually next week. But you know what I mean, 0:02:32.919 --> 0:02:34.840 three tough questions you can play along, try to go 0:02:34.880 --> 0:02:37.680 three and ow and nine players upon whom you can 0:02:37.680 --> 0:02:40.799 take a chance. But let's get to that Buffalo Tennessee 0:02:40.840 --> 0:02:44.280 game delayed. We don't we believe and hope that it's 0:02:44.320 --> 0:02:46.200 going to go off, So you know, let's just cover 0:02:46.240 --> 0:02:47.880 it like it is, like it will be played, because 0:02:47.880 --> 0:02:49.640 we still want to give people advice on this. Do 0:02:49.680 --> 0:02:52.720 you think Hank Williams Jr. Is making a Tuesday night 0:02:52.720 --> 0:02:57.519 football song right now? Yeah? So now this game is 0:02:57.520 --> 0:03:01.960 on Tuesday, it could get canceled. So, um, I think 0:03:02.000 --> 0:03:05.959 it's probably going to go, but it's not quite. But 0:03:06.240 --> 0:03:09.239 it's not quite fifty fifty, but it's close. Um So 0:03:09.400 --> 0:03:12.480 in my mind, there's four players I think you should start, 0:03:12.520 --> 0:03:14.799 and they're the four players I gave A grades too 0:03:14.919 --> 0:03:18.120 in this scenario. The other players I think they're just 0:03:18.160 --> 0:03:21.040 a little bit too risky with the possible cancelation. But 0:03:21.120 --> 0:03:24.040 the A players have that elite upside that I think 0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:26.480 that you should probably still keep them in your lineup, 0:03:26.480 --> 0:03:30.040 and that starts with Josh Allen. Uh. Titans aren't particularly 0:03:30.040 --> 0:03:33.240 good against the past, allowing two sixty nine yards per 0:03:33.240 --> 0:03:36.000 game this season, and they gave up three touchdowns to 0:03:36.080 --> 0:03:38.720 each of the last two quarterbacks they faced, which were 0:03:38.720 --> 0:03:42.640 Minshew and Cousins, not necessarily the cream of the crop 0:03:42.680 --> 0:03:45.720 at the quarterback position. Uh. Stephan Diggs is the other 0:03:45.760 --> 0:03:48.360 A grade on the buffalo side. The last team the 0:03:48.400 --> 0:03:51.520 Titans face was digs old team, the Vikings, and rookie 0:03:51.520 --> 0:03:54.600 Justin Jefferson had his coming out party against Jonathan Joseph 0:03:54.640 --> 0:03:57.440 and Malcolm Butler. So I think Diggs is an elite 0:03:57.480 --> 0:04:01.680 play this week as well. Now, John Brown and Cole Beasley. Uh, 0:04:01.680 --> 0:04:04.120 that's so, that's a different story. Brown is still dealing 0:04:04.120 --> 0:04:08.520 with the calf injury. It looks bad well. He reaggravated 0:04:08.560 --> 0:04:12.240 it on Wednesday, and he was limited on Friday noticely, 0:04:12.360 --> 0:04:15.080 noticeably hobbling and some of the video that we've seen. 0:04:15.440 --> 0:04:18.400 I think he's on the bench for sure. Cole Beasley 0:04:18.480 --> 0:04:20.640 was on the injury report earlier in this week, but 0:04:20.720 --> 0:04:23.040 he dropped off the injury report. He's worth a c 0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:27.520 start if you need it, I guess, but I don't 0:04:27.520 --> 0:04:30.080 think that there's a scenario where I'm starting Cole Beasley here. 0:04:30.360 --> 0:04:33.640 I do like Gabriel Davis fill in. If it turns 0:04:33.680 --> 0:04:35.720 out that Brown is inactive and you need to make 0:04:35.720 --> 0:04:38.400 a last minute pivot, that's the guy to pivot do. 0:04:38.520 --> 0:04:41.160 My say is, if you're if you're playing Brown, you 0:04:41.200 --> 0:04:43.680 shouldn't be playing Brown at all. You should find somebody 0:04:43.680 --> 0:04:47.760 else who's playing on Sunday. Anyway. Devin Singletary and Zack Moss, 0:04:48.000 --> 0:04:51.000 I'm gonna give them both Sea grades if Moss goes, 0:04:51.040 --> 0:04:53.880 but single Arry bumps up to a B. If Moss 0:04:53.960 --> 0:04:56.520 is out again and Zack Moss is still dealing with 0:04:56.560 --> 0:04:59.920 that toe injury, he's got to be trending more positive 0:05:00.000 --> 0:05:02.839 after sitting again last week, and this game getting delayed 0:05:03.000 --> 0:05:06.159 gives him an extra two days to sit, so that's nice. Plus, 0:05:06.160 --> 0:05:09.599 the Titans are allowing five point nine yards per carry 0:05:09.760 --> 0:05:13.280 right now, and that's absolutely unheard of. And they currently 0:05:13.279 --> 0:05:15.800 have four members of the defense on the I R 0:05:15.920 --> 0:05:19.839 COVID list, including defensive tackle da Kwon Jones and defensive 0:05:19.920 --> 0:05:22.599 end Jeffrey Simmons. Let's hope most of those extra couple 0:05:22.640 --> 0:05:24.640 of days are enough to get Moss to a spot 0:05:24.640 --> 0:05:27.839 where he can play well. Of course you think that. 0:05:28.040 --> 0:05:30.320 And by the way, I buried the lead. This is 0:05:30.360 --> 0:05:32.880 the Zach Moss versus John new Smith bull right, It 0:05:33.040 --> 0:05:35.960 is right here. It's the Paul Charchian bull right. In 0:05:35.960 --> 0:05:37.920 this game, let's talk about John new Smith. Let's go 0:05:38.040 --> 0:05:41.599 right there. There's nobody else for the for Ryan Tannehill 0:05:41.680 --> 0:05:43.960 to pass too. In this game, Corey Davis out. Yeah, 0:05:44.000 --> 0:05:47.160 Corey Davis is on ir COVID and Smith is averaging 0:05:47.200 --> 0:05:50.240 sixty yards and a score per game. The Bills are 0:05:50.240 --> 0:05:53.720 allowing eight catches for ninety yards per game to the 0:05:53.720 --> 0:05:57.159 tight end position. John new Smith solid A grade in 0:05:57.200 --> 0:06:00.279 this game. I don't like any of the wider eivers. 0:06:00.360 --> 0:06:02.279 Though A. J. Brown is still on the bench. I 0:06:02.320 --> 0:06:06.280 don't know how you could start him still with the 0:06:07.400 --> 0:06:09.920 he has a couple of days and White in all 0:06:09.920 --> 0:06:14.120 probabilitious probability hit that. I get that. But if he's 0:06:14.160 --> 0:06:16.200 on the field, I think I'm playing him in that match. 0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:19.600 If you have that luxury, have having this game on 0:06:19.600 --> 0:06:21.760 Tuesday and possibly get by the way, go see if 0:06:21.800 --> 0:06:23.760 you can trade for Derrick Henry or A J. Brown 0:06:23.839 --> 0:06:27.200 right now, Yeah, you should your chance. I will mention 0:06:27.279 --> 0:06:29.760 that outside of A J. Brown and Corey Davis, who's 0:06:29.800 --> 0:06:32.440 not playing, Calif Raymond has the most targets of any 0:06:32.480 --> 0:06:35.560 of the remaining Titans receivers. He did have three catches 0:06:35.600 --> 0:06:37.760 for a hundred and eighteen yards against the Vikings in 0:06:37.760 --> 0:06:39.800 the last game they played. And if you're winning one 0:06:39.839 --> 0:06:42.160 of those weird leagues that mandates that you start a 0:06:42.240 --> 0:06:45.479 Titans wide receiver, I think Calif Raymond is the safest 0:06:45.480 --> 0:06:48.960 play Derrick Henry. He gets an A grade out Outside 0:06:49.000 --> 0:06:51.480 the quarterbacks in the NFL, no one touches the ball 0:06:51.520 --> 0:06:54.320 per game more than Derrick Henry, who's combining for thirty 0:06:54.400 --> 0:06:57.960 rushing attempts plus targets per game. So he's in A grade. 0:06:57.960 --> 0:07:00.520 And I missed Ryan Tannehill. So let's get to him, 0:07:00.560 --> 0:07:03.480 only giving him a CE. I was going to give 0:07:03.520 --> 0:07:07.320 him a B, but as receivers are just not there, 0:07:07.560 --> 0:07:10.520 and so this is this is like less than a B, 0:07:11.000 --> 0:07:13.880 but more than a C. I would call it C prime. 0:07:14.040 --> 0:07:16.280 How about C prime. We're gonna call it. We'll call 0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:20.640 a C. That's a straight CE. Tannehill's averaging two and 0:07:20.640 --> 0:07:23.160 two the Bills are allowing to nine four and two. 0:07:23.520 --> 0:07:25.960 It should be high scoring if this goes off with 0:07:26.000 --> 0:07:29.160 an over under a forty nine, So Tannehill is startable. 0:07:29.600 --> 0:07:31.760 Miami takes on San Francisco. I thought we'd get more 0:07:31.800 --> 0:07:35.080 production out of the Miami offense last week, Scott, but 0:07:35.320 --> 0:07:38.920 as it turns out, no, uh, you know, we and 0:07:39.200 --> 0:07:42.680 Bryan Tannell only got that rushing touchdown. I was nervous 0:07:42.720 --> 0:07:46.560 about that. Instead he gets to It's a what seems 0:07:46.560 --> 0:07:48.400 like could be a tougher matchup, but still with all 0:07:48.440 --> 0:07:51.520 the defensive injuries for San Francisco, maybe there's a little 0:07:51.560 --> 0:07:54.040 something to be done here for Miami. Yeah, you might 0:07:54.120 --> 0:07:56.960 think they're San Francisco is really really banged up. It 0:07:57.040 --> 0:07:59.760 does concern me that Flora's waited until Tuesday to and 0:07:59.840 --> 0:08:02.760 now that uh Fitzpatrick was going to be the starter 0:08:02.920 --> 0:08:06.280 once just the fact that he has to make the announcement. Yeah, 0:08:06.400 --> 0:08:08.240 Fitzpatrick is going to be the starter. I think two 0:08:08.240 --> 0:08:11.160 a time is coming. San Francisco has held all four 0:08:11.240 --> 0:08:16.240 quarterbacks they faced. Is it almost two o'clock? Yeah? Yeah, 0:08:16.240 --> 0:08:22.320 I did high to myself. I don't know that I 0:08:22.360 --> 0:08:24.800 give credit for that. We're not gonna We're not gonna 0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:27.920 reinforce that kind of behavior on this show. San Fran 0:08:28.000 --> 0:08:32.040 good defense against the past. They've against everything. Really, They've 0:08:32.040 --> 0:08:34.240 held the two key the four qbs they faced under 0:08:34.240 --> 0:08:37.080 two or thirty yards and have only allowed three passing 0:08:37.120 --> 0:08:40.319 touchdowns in those four games. They're allowing under six yards 0:08:40.360 --> 0:08:45.960 per attempt, which is which is really darn good. That fits. Yeah, exactly. 0:08:46.320 --> 0:08:48.440 I have fits on the bench. I have almost the 0:08:48.600 --> 0:08:51.520 entire Dolphins team on the bench. Honestly, I have Parker 0:08:51.600 --> 0:08:54.160 as a c star because he just gets the volume 0:08:54.200 --> 0:08:57.520 and he's he's he's uh, he's just a Study's clearly 0:08:57.600 --> 0:08:59.760 established himself as the top dog in that offense with 0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:03.240 team catches in the last two weeks. Um, it does 0:09:03.320 --> 0:09:07.040 sound like Richard Sherman. He hasn't practiced all week. He's 0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:09.920 going to be a game time decision. They said he 0:09:09.960 --> 0:09:13.040 could go even without practicing. But I'm a little worried there. 0:09:13.040 --> 0:09:16.280 If he doesn't either be hobbled against Parker or he 0:09:16.559 --> 0:09:19.640 Parker won't have to face him. Preston and Ford are 0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:22.400 on the bench for me. The Preston Preston Williams Man. 0:09:22.480 --> 0:09:25.800 I love him, but he's his snaps went from down 0:09:25.840 --> 0:09:28.920 to six. He's just drop here and I think I 0:09:28.960 --> 0:09:31.079 think he's still recovering or something from the a c 0:09:31.240 --> 0:09:34.880 L last year. Uh Ford Ford had nine targets twice 0:09:34.920 --> 0:09:37.000 in his last three games. It's no okay matchup against 0:09:37.080 --> 0:09:39.480 mar Taylor, but he's a little tough to trust, especially 0:09:39.480 --> 0:09:43.080 against his secondary, even even though it's banged up. Gasicky 0:09:43.360 --> 0:09:45.679 no thanks, I mean one catch each the last two 0:09:45.720 --> 0:09:50.720 weeks is shockingly inactive the last two weeks. One catch games. Yeah, 0:09:50.800 --> 0:09:52.640 he did grab a touch on one of them, I think, 0:09:52.679 --> 0:09:55.600 But the four in areas allowing just twenty six yards 0:09:55.640 --> 0:09:58.480 per game to the tight end, that's it's not a 0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:01.280 good spot for him. And and the San Francisco Runday 0:10:01.440 --> 0:10:04.160 Rundy only one runner over sixty yards and that took 0:10:04.160 --> 0:10:07.400 twenty one carries. That Gascon no out. That's a long 0:10:07.400 --> 0:10:10.320 way to say bench everyone, except for partly, sorry for 0:10:10.400 --> 0:10:13.559 wasting your time there. Garoppolo named the starter, given him 0:10:13.559 --> 0:10:17.880 a B grade because Dolphins are bottom ten against fantasy quarterbacks. 0:10:18.360 --> 0:10:21.560 Byron Jones should return this week. He's been practicing in fall, 0:10:21.640 --> 0:10:24.160 so he should return. But it's still been bad even 0:10:24.280 --> 0:10:27.520 with him, so so the last three quarterbacks they faced 0:10:27.559 --> 0:10:31.800 averaged three d fifty yards and two touchdowns. So it's 0:10:31.840 --> 0:10:34.040 a good spot for Jimmy Garoppolo, even though he hands 0:10:34.040 --> 0:10:36.400 them off a ton. I'll mention we're gonna talk about 0:10:36.440 --> 0:10:39.360 Garoppolo in more detail later in the show. Alright, A 0:10:39.480 --> 0:10:42.880 grade for Kittle because he's George freaking Kittle. I do 0:10:42.960 --> 0:10:44.840 have I do have Samuel on the bench. He's been 0:10:44.840 --> 0:10:48.480 dealing with an illness. Uh that he's questionable for this game. 0:10:49.200 --> 0:10:51.760 The Dolphins are allowing over ten yards per target to 0:10:51.800 --> 0:10:54.120 wide receivers. I think he's just a little more risky 0:10:54.160 --> 0:10:56.800 with his first game back. I trust you just a 0:10:56.840 --> 0:10:59.559 little bit more. I can see. I can see having 0:10:59.600 --> 0:11:03.240 the preference either way, but I gave you a C grade. 0:11:03.280 --> 0:11:05.960 He he plays mostly on the left, which means he 0:11:06.000 --> 0:11:09.000 could face up against Xavian Howard, but they both move 0:11:09.040 --> 0:11:11.439 around a lot, so maybe they'll try to move aok 0:11:11.480 --> 0:11:14.600 away from Howard. Maybe Howard will shot who knows uh 0:11:14.720 --> 0:11:18.640 most and Jet most that is questionable. Uh, if he 0:11:18.720 --> 0:11:21.360 does go, I have a B grade on Mostart he's 0:11:21.360 --> 0:11:23.360 going to take most of the work. If he doesn't go, 0:11:23.400 --> 0:11:25.520 I have a B grade on Jet. I have Jet 0:11:25.520 --> 0:11:27.760 on the bench. If Moster goes basically how it goes, 0:11:27.840 --> 0:11:31.000 you want you want the starter in that in that offense. 0:11:31.040 --> 0:11:34.079 Although oftentimes this run offense has been able to support 0:11:34.080 --> 0:11:36.960 two fantasy backs, it has, it has, I just don't 0:11:37.000 --> 0:11:39.360 know what the share is gonna be. Uh, the way 0:11:39.360 --> 0:11:41.640 they were using Mostart early in the year lends me 0:11:41.720 --> 0:11:44.480 to believe that if most Are can go, he's going 0:11:44.559 --> 0:11:48.000 to be the man. And uh, Miami gave up huge 0:11:48.120 --> 0:11:50.719 days to James Robinson and Chris Carson. If most of 0:11:50.720 --> 0:11:53.320 it is out, I mean, if most Are plays the 0:11:53.440 --> 0:11:57.120 RBS with thirteen plus touches against Miami, both top two 0:11:57.160 --> 0:12:00.920 hundred yards and both scored two touchdowns. So there's gonna 0:12:00.920 --> 0:12:03.080 be a lot of of Raheemostard owners who are gonna 0:12:03.080 --> 0:12:05.120 be skittish about putting him back in the lineup. And 0:12:05.120 --> 0:12:08.720 that's a mistake. Yeah, I'm not. Whichever one starts, get 0:12:08.720 --> 0:12:12.400 them in your lineup. Agreed. Las Vegas takes on Kansas City. 0:12:12.480 --> 0:12:16.240 We've got a I've been between an A and a 0:12:16.320 --> 0:12:18.280 B grade on Josh Jacobs for a while. I think 0:12:18.280 --> 0:12:21.480 I'm gonna go be grade because there you have to 0:12:21.480 --> 0:12:23.680 be madly enough to pick one or the other that 0:12:23.840 --> 0:12:26.960 happened to know that there's something between an A and 0:12:27.000 --> 0:12:29.560 a B grade when trading scales. When when you do 0:12:29.640 --> 0:12:32.959 the A, B, C, D E F G. You ever 0:12:33.040 --> 0:12:36.800 hear anybody go and and half be and half A 0:12:36.840 --> 0:12:39.800 and half B B and a half see no, your 0:12:39.880 --> 0:12:43.079 kids not go to school. Josh Jacobs has struggled since 0:12:43.080 --> 0:12:46.480 his Week one domination over Carolina, since then, averaging just 0:12:46.600 --> 0:12:50.680 eighty seven yards per game total. He has His last 0:12:50.679 --> 0:12:53.480 three matchups have been against very tough defenses, though, and 0:12:53.520 --> 0:12:55.520 there is hope for him against the Chiefs, ranked thirty 0:12:55.679 --> 0:12:58.400 against the run by Football Outsiders, giving a five yards 0:12:58.400 --> 0:13:00.880 per carry. I think the biggest question and the reason 0:13:00.960 --> 0:13:04.040 I am giving Josh Jacobs a B grade is the 0:13:04.040 --> 0:13:06.920 game script is going to turn against him sooner or later. 0:13:07.520 --> 0:13:10.320 And while he's still a bigger factor in the receiving game, 0:13:10.679 --> 0:13:13.200 I think at some point the rushes are going to 0:13:13.280 --> 0:13:15.720 dry up. Are you saying you would never give anybody 0:13:15.760 --> 0:13:19.200 a B plus grade? Church? Not on this show? If I, 0:13:19.200 --> 0:13:22.720 if I, if I were the six options this week, 0:13:23.360 --> 0:13:28.280 we're going with B plus graded wide receivers today. What 0:13:29.760 --> 0:13:35.240 this show just Jefferson, was that this show. No, that 0:13:35.400 --> 0:13:38.520 was not this show. That was an entirely different show 0:13:38.840 --> 0:13:43.960 in which one can give pluses and minuses. Were I 0:13:44.120 --> 0:13:47.679 a school teacher, I would give pluses and minuses. Continuing, 0:13:47.720 --> 0:13:52.000 thank you, Brian. Darren Waller average seven catches and eighty 0:13:52.080 --> 0:13:54.960 three yards in the two blowout losses against the Chiefs 0:13:55.080 --> 0:13:57.640 last season, so maybe he's gonna get some mop up 0:13:57.760 --> 0:14:01.800 duty here as well. Kansas City prob bably deploys Tyrone 0:14:01.840 --> 0:14:05.440 Matthew on Waller, who is always a tough matchup. But 0:14:05.640 --> 0:14:09.400 while he's got nine inches on Honey Badger, So if 0:14:09.440 --> 0:14:12.040 the Raiders are playing from behind, is expected if figure 0:14:12.200 --> 0:14:13.880 Waller is gonna get a bunch of dumpops and that 0:14:13.920 --> 0:14:16.640 makes him valuable for a B grade Hunter Renfrow comes 0:14:16.640 --> 0:14:20.359 into a C grade. Normally, I don't like slot receivers 0:14:20.400 --> 0:14:25.320 against Kansas City because they get Tyron Matthew. But as 0:14:25.360 --> 0:14:27.200 I just said, Tyron Matthew's gonna be on Waller, so 0:14:27.240 --> 0:14:30.520 I think Renfro is going to have lesser coverage, and 0:14:30.560 --> 0:14:34.040 I think he's a plausible spot start here. Uh, Henry 0:14:34.080 --> 0:14:37.600 Ruggs expected back Bryan Edwards not clear about that yet, 0:14:37.680 --> 0:14:40.560 and but either way, these rookies have been deprived of 0:14:40.600 --> 0:14:42.920 so much playing time due to injuries. I don't think 0:14:42.920 --> 0:14:45.440 you want to start them, nor Derek Carr against a 0:14:45.680 --> 0:14:49.560 very good past defense. Let's go to the Kansas City side. 0:14:49.800 --> 0:14:53.200 Patrick Mahomes, Tyreek Hill, Travis Kelsey, the radar all a 0:14:53.360 --> 0:14:55.520 grades obviously, and I'll just touch on a couple of 0:14:55.520 --> 0:14:57.880 items for these guys. The Raiders rank twenty seven in 0:14:57.960 --> 0:15:01.640 coverage and pass rush by Pro Football Focus. It's a 0:15:01.640 --> 0:15:03.920 shame this game isn't played in Las Vegas because with 0:15:04.000 --> 0:15:05.720 Tyreek Hill is going to do it as a hapless 0:15:05.720 --> 0:15:09.160 slat cornerback. The LaMarcus Joiner is a felony in every 0:15:09.160 --> 0:15:14.320 state except Nevada. The iron footed Joiner has allowed seventy 0:15:14.520 --> 0:15:17.560 percent of his passes in coverage to be completed. With 0:15:17.680 --> 0:15:20.240 Joiner busy on Hill, Travis Kelsey is gonna see a 0:15:20.280 --> 0:15:24.320 lot of coverage from linebacker. I think it's Kyle Littleton 0:15:24.680 --> 0:15:27.560 in his first and he's the worst tight end defender 0:15:27.560 --> 0:15:30.680 according to Pro Football Focus. Would an iron footed player 0:15:30.720 --> 0:15:34.280 be a good kicker? Yeah, you know, I think that 0:15:34.280 --> 0:15:38.520 would help. Maybe iron considerate, Maybe he should nick that's 0:15:38.520 --> 0:15:42.840 his fruit? Still, uh, Kelsey put up seven catches for 0:15:42.960 --> 0:15:45.240 hundred seven yards on average at his last four against 0:15:45.240 --> 0:15:47.600 the Raiders, and those are great numbers. Let's talk Clyde 0:15:47.680 --> 0:15:51.360 Edwards Hilaire. After a Night's first week on the ground, 0:15:51.400 --> 0:15:53.680 the rushing has tapered off a bit, just thirty eight, 0:15:53.840 --> 0:15:57.720 sixty four and sixty four scoreless rushing yards, but after 0:15:57.760 --> 0:16:00.200 being held catch less since in week one, he has 0:16:00.200 --> 0:16:03.640 put up some solid receiving numbers. And Las Vegas ranks 0:16:03.680 --> 0:16:06.960 dead last against the run by football outsiders, and they've 0:16:07.000 --> 0:16:10.000 yielded the fourth most targets and fourth most receptions to 0:16:10.080 --> 0:16:13.000 opposing running backs. So I figured the Chiefs get ahead early, 0:16:13.240 --> 0:16:16.040 they're gonna run plenty. There'll still be some dump off 0:16:16.040 --> 0:16:18.000 stuff to Clyde Edwards a layer and he gets an 0:16:18.000 --> 0:16:20.520 A grade. Sammy Watkins is the only other guy worth 0:16:20.600 --> 0:16:24.400 note he is a C grade. He's tied in receptions 0:16:24.400 --> 0:16:26.800 with Tyreek Hill, so he's getting plenty of use, but 0:16:26.840 --> 0:16:28.800 he doesn't turn it into much and he does nothing 0:16:28.880 --> 0:16:32.440 after the catch. If you're looking for five, five catches, 0:16:32.600 --> 0:16:37.040 fifty yards, no touchdowns, Sammy Watkins is your guy. He's 0:16:37.080 --> 0:16:40.400 gonna see Trayvon Mullins and Nevin Lawson on the outside. 0:16:40.400 --> 0:16:45.680 They've given up one touchdown so far. All right, when 0:16:45.880 --> 0:16:49.800 we come back, take a chance on me. Nine players 0:16:49.840 --> 0:16:51.720 not normally in your starting lineup. We will tell you 0:16:51.760 --> 0:16:54.200 who they are that you can pick up. And you know, 0:16:54.240 --> 0:16:56.240 may need to make a lot of pivots, last minute 0:16:56.240 --> 0:16:58.400 pivots to make up for those Bills and Titans. These 0:16:58.400 --> 0:17:02.160 guys will be valuable this week, very very valuable. Take 0:17:02.160 --> 0:17:05.920 a chance on me. Segment coming up next. It's still 0:17:05.920 --> 0:17:08.800 possible to join a guillotine league. It's the freshest format 0:17:08.800 --> 0:17:12.000 in fantasy sports. Every week, the low scoring team is 0:17:12.000 --> 0:17:14.600 eliminated from the league and all their players go to 0:17:14.600 --> 0:17:17.639 the waiver wire. Last team standing wins. You don't have 0:17:17.680 --> 0:17:19.399 to be the best team. You just never have to 0:17:19.440 --> 0:17:23.119 be the worst team in any given week. Guilloteam leagues 0:17:23.240 --> 0:17:45.159 dot com. Back for more Fantasy Football Weekly In moments, 0:17:45.800 --> 0:17:48.560 welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly. A segment week call, Take 0:17:48.560 --> 0:17:51.560 a chance on me. Nine players not normally in your 0:17:51.600 --> 0:17:53.520 starting line at Many of these guys available on the 0:17:53.560 --> 0:17:56.119 waiver wire. They've got great matchups. Will tell you who 0:17:56.160 --> 0:18:00.600 they are, beginning at the quarterback position and Scott Fish right, 0:18:00.920 --> 0:18:04.280 all right, I'm starting with Teddy Bridgewater. You may remember, 0:18:04.359 --> 0:18:07.560 right before the season started, I said, maybe we got 0:18:07.600 --> 0:18:10.399 this guy ranked too low because everything's shaping up for 0:18:10.400 --> 0:18:13.240 Teddy Bridgewater to throw it underneath all these weapons. And 0:18:13.480 --> 0:18:15.679 we had him twenty nine, maybe he'd be in the 0:18:15.720 --> 0:18:18.720 mid teens. Here we are. She's QB eighteen right now. 0:18:18.760 --> 0:18:23.040 He's throwing a ton of game two D three hundred 0:18:23.080 --> 0:18:26.200 yards passing in most games. Now he gets the Falcons 0:18:26.240 --> 0:18:31.359 with five defensive backs out of the game. Unbelievable. Also, 0:18:31.480 --> 0:18:34.399 Falcons team that already the worst past defense in the 0:18:34.480 --> 0:18:37.080 league with five defensive backs at one point they were 0:18:37.080 --> 0:18:41.400 playing linebackers as safeties last week. That's unreal. And they've 0:18:41.440 --> 0:18:45.600 allowed four touchdowns to every quarterback they fit well technically, 0:18:45.680 --> 0:18:49.040 full Sterbisky combined for four but four touchdowns each week 0:18:49.040 --> 0:18:53.199 to the quarterback position. Yeah. So that defense allowing three 0:18:53.880 --> 0:18:57.560 three passing yards per game as well, it's it's just terrible. 0:18:57.760 --> 0:19:01.280 Teddy Bridgewater. Get him in Teddy bridge Water. All right, Matt, 0:19:01.520 --> 0:19:03.280 you take a chance and the quarterback is I don't 0:19:03.320 --> 0:19:06.440 feel nearly as positive as Scott Fish does about his guy, 0:19:06.560 --> 0:19:09.080 but I got Daniel Jones, and let's be honest, This 0:19:09.119 --> 0:19:11.520 has been a disaster for Jones so far this year, 0:19:11.560 --> 0:19:14.600 He's twenty second and passing yards per game. He's only 0:19:14.640 --> 0:19:18.040 thrown two passing touchdowns on the season. If his offensive 0:19:18.080 --> 0:19:21.000 line has been brutals, top running back out Sterling Shepherd out, 0:19:21.000 --> 0:19:24.320 but then walk the Cowboys, whose secondary might as well 0:19:24.359 --> 0:19:28.120 be wearing boots and spurs. The Cowboys have allowed eleven 0:19:28.200 --> 0:19:31.840 touchdown passes in the last three weeks. They've allowed three 0:19:31.840 --> 0:19:35.400 of the four quarterbacks they faced to top two seventy yards. Now, 0:19:35.400 --> 0:19:37.720 the Cowboys are probably looking at Danny Dimes as the 0:19:37.720 --> 0:19:40.280 get right game, but you know Danny Dimes is looking 0:19:40.320 --> 0:19:44.480 at the Cowboys the same way. For Kirk Cousins, the 0:19:44.520 --> 0:19:47.240 problem for him from a fantasy standpoint is less about 0:19:47.240 --> 0:19:49.639 ability and more that he just doesn't pass enough. Like 0:19:49.760 --> 0:19:52.520 He's are dead last and pass attempts averaging per game. 0:19:53.320 --> 0:19:58.480 But here comes the Seahawks averaging double that number, literally 0:19:58.920 --> 0:20:04.000 fifty passes per game. They're seeing fifty. That's virtually unheard up. 0:20:04.320 --> 0:20:06.439 So this could game could be the rare exception for 0:20:06.520 --> 0:20:08.760 Kirk Cousins where he throws often enough to produce a 0:20:08.880 --> 0:20:12.560 very good statistical game. Every quarterback to face Seattle has 0:20:12.600 --> 0:20:15.520 top three fifteen yards and all of them have scored. 0:20:16.440 --> 0:20:19.800 Seattle has allowed nine touchdowns to quarterbacks. The emergence of 0:20:19.840 --> 0:20:23.639 Justin Jefferson gives Cousins a critical second threat beyond Adam 0:20:23.680 --> 0:20:27.320 Feeling and Seattle be without elite safety Jamal Adams in 0:20:27.400 --> 0:20:30.320 this game. Take a chance and me continues with the 0:20:30.440 --> 0:20:33.720 running back position. Scott, you know, I'm going I didn't 0:20:33.720 --> 0:20:35.920 have a lot of good options in my matchups this week, 0:20:35.960 --> 0:20:38.800 but I'm going with it doesn't have to be your matchups. Yeah, 0:20:38.840 --> 0:20:41.399 you took a guy from my matchup, but that is true. 0:20:41.480 --> 0:20:43.440 That is true. But I'm going to Damian Harris, who 0:20:43.440 --> 0:20:46.200 I'm shocked to find out is still just thirty nine 0:20:46.200 --> 0:20:50.399 percent rostered. I don't know. My theory behind it is 0:20:50.480 --> 0:20:54.400 people hate New England backs because it's a good theory. 0:20:55.200 --> 0:20:57.800 That's the only thing I can think of. Hypothesis proven. 0:20:58.080 --> 0:21:01.600 He only played twenty three snaps last week. However, he 0:21:01.640 --> 0:21:05.359 carried the rock on seventeen of those twenty three snaps. 0:21:05.359 --> 0:21:08.040 Sony Michelle is still out. He's the guy to own there. 0:21:08.640 --> 0:21:10.760 The Broncos have given up a hundred and twenty plus 0:21:10.840 --> 0:21:13.560 yard days to Derrick Henry and James Conner before holding 0:21:13.600 --> 0:21:16.320 down Ronald Jones to seventy three and Frank Gore to 0:21:16.440 --> 0:21:20.600 thirty six. I guess, but Harry has probably lands between 0:21:20.640 --> 0:21:24.000 those two pairings. Um so I got him in my 0:21:24.240 --> 0:21:26.280 take a chance on me. By the way, Damien Harris 0:21:26.400 --> 0:21:28.680 has never not had a hundred yards in a Monday 0:21:28.760 --> 0:21:31.119 night football game that he's played in. That's a great point. 0:21:31.280 --> 0:21:34.800 That's a great one. That's that streak will may very 0:21:34.800 --> 0:21:37.080
