00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 1: me your man named g Marcus Grand alongside the Fantasy

10
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:39,479
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer Michael Fabiano and the Fantasy viper Graham Barfield.

11
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 1: I know we're gonna get into this, man, but this

12
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:45,240
Speaker 1: was just a weird week. Man. Are we starting every

13
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:47,160
Speaker 1: Monday show like that? Now? It seems like it's been

14
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:48,920
Speaker 1: like that for like three week Yeah, I don't know.

15
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:50,520
Speaker 1: I feel like this was a weird week. I feel

16
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 1: we've got a couple of weeks where things sort of

17
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 1: went according to plan. But man, this week, uh, you know,

18
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:57,360
Speaker 1: on on Monday's on Fantasy Live, we do that helps

19
00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 1: no one? This feels like a huge that help. I

20
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:04,440
Speaker 1: think the first three or four touchdowns scored yesterday by

21
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 1: guys that like we're completely off the board. Like not

22
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:12,040
Speaker 1: even not even complete cars, not even hell was that

23
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,440
Speaker 1: It's not even it wasn't even guys that are like fantasy. Oh,

24
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 1: he's on the waiver wire and like I'm just not

25
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 1: gonna pick him up, Like, who is that? Right? Can

26
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,199
Speaker 1: we can we also? Like this might be controversial and

27
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 1: and a lot of this has to do with the

28
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,040
Speaker 1: players around him, but can we agree that Deshaun Watson

29
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 1: is not an elite fantasy quarterback. You can't be an

30
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 1: elite fantasy quarterback and score fewer than four fantasy points

31
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,839
Speaker 1: in any full game that you play. He's been can't

32
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:38,120
Speaker 1: He's been freaking I have him in one of my league.

33
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: He's gonna kill me in a league. Uh in the

34
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 1: Alison James League. And James Conner too, who did nothing

35
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 1: because he got hurt and they had a Watson I'm

36
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 1: gonna lose to Jeff Garland. Uh So I'm gonna hear

37
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 1: about that. But he's not an elite fantasy quarterback. I

38
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 1: cannot put that label on a quarterback who does this.

39
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: Like Patrick Mahomes has a bad game and he's still

40
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 1: got eight teen points. Lamar Jackson has a bad game

41
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 1: and he's still giving you eighteen points. When Deshaun Watson

42
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:10,360
Speaker 1: is bad, he's brutally bad. He takes your soul and

43
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 1: he takes any chance of you winning in that particular week. Yeah,

44
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 1: I'm not pulling him out of the elite category yet. Yeah,

45
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 1: I'm not. He's been five right now. Man don't do that.

46
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,079
Speaker 1: They just don't do that. Everybody has bad days, but

47
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,519
Speaker 1: he's like four of them this year. He was under

48
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 1: darrest that whole I know, But I mean it's the

49
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 1: players around him too. But like Watson frustrates the hell.

50
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's necessarily players around him. I

51
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: just think it's Bill O'Brien not knowing how to scheme.

52
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:40,920
Speaker 1: I mean this, we knew what the Ravens wanted to do.

53
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:42,360
Speaker 1: We knew they wanted to go out and you know,

54
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:44,760
Speaker 1: force a ton of pressure on that Texas offensive line,

55
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 1: and O'Brien and his staff just didn't adjust him. He's

56
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 1: six sacks, Yes, he's just all are nothing. And he's

57
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 1: got the Patriots and the Broncos coming up. Yeah, that's

58
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,079
Speaker 1: not great, and the first matchup of the fan to

59
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 1: see postseason. He's got Denver, then he's at Tennessee. Then

60
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 1: he's got the Yucks, um, but what is hard to

61
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: trust him? Man? And I it was that. And as

62
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 1: you mentioned right, like this week was a little bit weird.

63
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,799
Speaker 1: Like I sat Cousins, who had a brutal match up

64
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 1: to play Watson at halftime, like a good move. When

65
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:19,920
Speaker 1: when bananas in the second half of that game, I say,

66
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:21,639
Speaker 1: a halftime it looked like it was okay. The Vikings

67
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 1: just needed to get their asses kicked. And by the way,

68
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray I loved during the preseason. I said you

69
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 1: were one of my favorite breakout quarterbacks. I said to

70
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 1: sit you both times against the forty Niners. Here I

71
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 1: am with egg on my face. I apologize. I don't

72
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 1: know when the Niners and the Atlanta Falcons changed defensive

73
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: personnel over the last couple of weeks. But holy god,

74
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 1: I mean we'll get to that, Kyler at this point.

75
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 1: We will, we will, we will get that. Yeah, the

76
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 1: the Niners in the especially Atlanta, we gotta talk about that, dude. Yeah, well, uh,

77
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 1: we'll touch on that. We'll touch on plenty of stuff.

78
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:56,640
Speaker 1: We look at some of the running back situations over

79
00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 1: the weekend that just went what kind sideways. Because it

80
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 1: is Monday, of course, we'll do the waiver wire as well.

81
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 1: We got some big questions from week eleven. We'll do

82
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 1: all of that and plenty more. But first let's go

83
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 1: behind the glasses we always do and talk to our

84
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 1: faithful producers seenor Edward L. Murphy Esquire Murphy's up. So

85
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,119
Speaker 1: we're all gonna draft to a tag of by Loo

86
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: when he's a member of the New England Patriots next year.

87
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:19,040
Speaker 1: Very high, that's gonna happen. We're gonna slide in the

88
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 1: back of the first round and just tear it up,

89
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: like man, I could already picture that, like when you know,

90
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: because Brady's only got a couple more years left, right,

91
00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 1: and then to it just slides on it and I can't. Yeah,

92
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 1: you say Brady doesn't have anymore, has only a couple

93
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,040
Speaker 1: of years left, But you don't realize that robotstone age.

94
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 1: That's true. Yeah, this is true. And you know next

95
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:41,279
Speaker 1: year he'll have a j Green. So just hurt my

96
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,160
Speaker 1: heart and then the rate I'm already mentally preparing very

97
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 1: early this morning. That just hurt my heart. That's not

98
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:47,720
Speaker 1: a good that's not a good thought to start in mind.

99
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 1: That a good way to start the week. Not even

100
00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 1: a little bit. So all right, that's a good that's

101
00:04:53,480 --> 00:05:07,840
Speaker 1: that's a good way to start. Let's do some news.

102
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: We will start in Detroit. Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford did

103
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 1: not play on Sunday. Jeff Driscoll got to start against

104
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 1: the Dallas Cowboys. We knew that the back injury was

105
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 1: possibly going to keep him out, but now there is

106
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:21,920
Speaker 1: talk that he could have to have surgery, that he

107
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 1: could be out up to six weeks, which in essence,

108
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 1: UH ends his certainly into his fantasy season, would likely

109
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 1: end his regular season as well. So I mean, look,

110
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 1: Jeff Driscoll was decent yesterday, got to twenty plus fantasy points.

111
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,280
Speaker 1: I know, but it's more about this week. They've got

112
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:46,520
Speaker 1: Washington about it's about Kenny g Man, are we but

113
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 1: are if you're looking for a streamer, would you look

114
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 1: at Jeff driss I played him in a two QB

115
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,600
Speaker 1: league against the Cowboys and wasn't expecting that. I mean,

116
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 1: he had almost thirty fantasy points, so two QB league

117
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 1: super flexing. Of course, any quarterback maybe not Mason Real

118
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 1: of all, he's playing the Bengals this week, Uh is

119
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,160
Speaker 1: worth a look. But I mean, you know, Drift is

120
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 1: a guy who can beat you with your with his

121
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,720
Speaker 1: feet too, so he's got that sort of He's not

122
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson, but I mean he can get you some

123
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 1: points on the ground. Um. I think that's the Cowboys

124
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 1: defense over over the last couple of weeks against quarterbacks.

125
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 1: I mean, it's regressing. And then we got Tom Brady

126
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 1: coming up, so that's gonna be a brutally bad matchup.

127
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:26,159
Speaker 1: So two QB super flex leagues absolutely, Um, if you're

128
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 1: desperate in its twelve team league, four team team league,

129
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 1: then I can see going after him. But that's probably

130
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: gonna be the best gaming has all year. The lines

131
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 1: have dropped six of their past seven games, and if

132
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,160
Speaker 1: Stafford is not even close to healthy, there's no reason

133
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 1: to risk him. I mean, there's no reason for them

134
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 1: to bring him back. And even though Stafford is having

135
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 1: it's such a barmber because Stafford was having his best

136
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,480
Speaker 1: year of his career. Maybe, um he's playing at least statistically,

137
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,040
Speaker 1: he was having one of his best season's everts it's

138
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,719
Speaker 1: a bummer because I mean I think Stafford was was

139
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 1: carrying quite a few teams that you know, we're relying

140
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 1: on him from the late rounds because he was I mean,

141
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:01,840
Speaker 1: I mean Lamar Jackson was one of the best late

142
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 1: round quarterbacks of all time that Matthew Stafford arguably would

143
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,880
Speaker 1: have taken the late round quarterback mantel this year. Have

144
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson just not for me though. The big thing

145
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 1: is that, like, you can't trust Kenny Golladay. And I

146
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 1: know that Marvin Jones scored twice yesterday, so um, if

147
00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 1: you started him, then you know you're feeling pretty good.

148
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 1: But I mean, Kenny G had one catch, it was

149
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 1: late in the game, and you know he had that

150
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 1: one touchdown the week before against believe it was Chicago. Um,

151
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 1: other than that, did nothing. And so now it's a

152
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 1: point where I remember I was talking about how like

153
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 1: I was either going with Kenny g or Joe Mixon

154
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 1: this week, and I went with mixing because Stafford was out.

155
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 1: So now like moving forward every single week instead of

156
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 1: like Kenny G being a plug and play, you got

157
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 1: to look at the matchups now, really do so Kenny

158
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: Kenny Golladay has fourteen targets over the last two weeks

159
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 1: with drist call, He's caught four of them. Uh so

160
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 1: then are there are there any Lions that you trust, no,

161
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 1: I mean, and next week the matchup is really good

162
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 1: for both of them. I know they can get loosen

163
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 1: and burn Josh Norman. But but at the same time,

164
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,080
Speaker 1: like you know, with risk All back there, they're gonna

165
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 1: they're gonna be a run heavy team. And I just

166
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 1: and they don't have to run at the buscarp right,

167
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 1: And then where did that come from? Right? And they

168
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: don't even have any running backs that they're gonna, you know,

169
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 1: feature per se. So yeah, you know, I think this

170
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 1: whole lines team, as long as Stafford is out is

171
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 1: is pretty bare of bones. Man. That's rough man. I mean,

172
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 1: you take one guy, you can take one guy out

173
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 1: of an offense and suddenly it goes you take in

174
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,839
Speaker 1: the toilet exactly, You take the stud quarterback out of

175
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 1: an offense and things can just fall apart fantasy so quick.

176
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 1: It's our problet Dave damas Check and his Jinger piece. Uh,

177
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,120
Speaker 1: you know, like what's the guy that the piece you

178
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 1: pull out and the whole thing falls apart of Matthew Stafford.

179
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,600
Speaker 1: And I always think of of Dave when when we

180
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 1: see bad quarterback play, because I remember him saying once

181
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,439
Speaker 1: that we have how many billions of people who live

182
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,680
Speaker 1: on this earth and we can't find We can't find

183
00:08:56,679 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 1: thirty two. You can find two are good quarterbacks. Drischool

184
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,880
Speaker 1: wasn't wasn't bad. It's good for fantasy. Is just you know,

185
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,320
Speaker 1: I think that the drop off between him and Stafford

186
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:12,600
Speaker 1: is just immense. No, definitely, it's definitely huge. Uh. In Indianapolis,

187
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 1: Marlon Mack left Sunday's game against the Jaguars with a

188
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 1: fractured hand. Now, I don't know if there has been

189
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: a definitive timeline on how long he's going to be

190
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: be out, but he certainly is not going to play

191
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:28,560
Speaker 1: on Thursday night against the Houston Texans. Jonathan Williams the

192
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 1: Graham had a really nice game over a hundred yards.

193
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,680
Speaker 1: It would seem like he is the guy that you

194
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 1: probably want to target. I guess Niheim Hines if you know,

195
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 1: if you're in a deep league, or if if Williams

196
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 1: is gone. But Jonathan Williams kind of seems like the

197
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,960
Speaker 1: guy right now. Yeah, you know, we've this has been

198
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:43,800
Speaker 1: a bad year for Waiver while running back, and we're

199
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 1: gonna get to a few more that we're really bad.

200
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,079
Speaker 1: In a little bit but yeah, I think Jonathan Williams

201
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,280
Speaker 1: will probably be one of the top waiver claims this week.

202
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,080
Speaker 1: And it makes sense. I mean, any running back behind

203
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 1: that cold offensive line is is going to be fantasy relevant.

204
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 1: And uh, you know, I think we saw, you know,

205
00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 1: just exactly what Jacobe percent means that this Colt's offense

206
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:03,880
Speaker 1: yesterday's you know, he didn't have a big game for fantasy,

207
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,439
Speaker 1: but he kept the offense on the move, didn't take

208
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,120
Speaker 1: any just terrible sacks, didn't didn't force any bad throws

209
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,719
Speaker 1: like Brian Horrier did last week. And and it's good

210
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 1: to see the Colts kind of get get back on track.

211
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 1: You know, they might get t Y Hilton back this

212
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,080
Speaker 1: week too. We'll have to see about that. He's been

213
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 1: out with a calf injury for a few games. But

214
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,440
Speaker 1: a short week, you know, I think I think Jonathan

215
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 1: Williams will pretty easily be the top the top claim

216
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 1: this week. Yeah, even it's even it's for you know,

217
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:29,839
Speaker 1: one or two weeks because Jordan Wilkins in the mix,

218
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:34,320
Speaker 1: he's obviously banged up right now. Um, but uh, this

219
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 1: is where we're at. I would say two of the

220
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 1: five top waiver claims will be only only because Quentin

221
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:47,160
Speaker 1: Nelson is not available because he's not running back Volts

222
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 1: goal line back Quentin Quentin but Nelson who. I know

223
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 1: that the touchdown didn't count, but the keg stand celebration

224
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 1: was pretty awesome. Um. Mr Robinski left the game last

225
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 1: night late once the Rams pretty much put the ball

226
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 1: game away and what was just a sloppy, ugly game

227
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:07,439
Speaker 1: to watch. Uh, the reports are he had a hip injury.

228
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 1: I don't know that outside of injury, all right, I

229
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,600
Speaker 1: don't know that outside observers saw it that way, but

230
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:18,760
Speaker 1: that is the report. Um. I mean, I know there

231
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:20,960
Speaker 1: are four teams on a bye this week. Any any

232
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,679
Speaker 1: takers for Chase Daniel in the event that Trubisky they're

233
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:28,559
Speaker 1: they're playing They're playing the Giants. I mean again too

234
00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:30,960
Speaker 1: QB super flex leagues. I don't know that Bears team

235
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 1: is awful. I wonder if now he's going to keep

236
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 1: that job after the season is over. And um, it's

237
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 1: the one good thing that came out of that game.

238
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,959
Speaker 1: I think Sean McVeigh listens to the podcast because he

239
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 1: gave the ball to Todd Gurley. Yeah, he probably doesn't,

240
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 1: but I mean, like, what did I tell you guys.

241
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 1: Last week, Todd Gurley is healthy. Everyone that I that

242
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:51,280
Speaker 1: I know that's close to him says he's healthy. He

243
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 1: looked freaking good last night. He looked good the week before,

244
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 1: and then give him the damn ball in the last

245
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:59,040
Speaker 1: sixteen minutes of the game against the Steelers. He's he's

246
00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 1: fine right now. Like the Rams, and they get it

247
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 1: last year, all of the offensive fireworks and you know,

248
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:10,880
Speaker 1: the game against the Chiefs and you know, Golf going.

249
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 1: That's not what this team is now. Okay. You have

250
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 1: to play good defense, which they can, and you run

251
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 1: the damn football. That's the only way the Rams are

252
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,080
Speaker 1: gonna win games the rest of the season. They can't

253
00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 1: do it with Jared Goff. He had three more turnovers

254
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:27,119
Speaker 1: last night. Golf stinks right now. It's not even rosterable

255
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:31,000
Speaker 1: in fantasy leagues. He's not rosterable. And they've got the

256
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 1: Ravens coming up next. Good luck with that. Golf should

257
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 1: have been on a waiver wire three weeks ago. Okay,

258
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 1: so that's what the Rams have to do. Freaking give

259
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 1: the ball the girly twenty times a game. Okay, he's

260
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 1: healthy right now, give it to him until the damn

261
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,440
Speaker 1: wheels fall off. That's what you've got to do if

262
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:48,560
Speaker 1: you want to make the playoffs, because golf is not

263
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:51,439
Speaker 1: getting you there, especially when you're tapped. I don't know

264
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,840
Speaker 1: what happened with Robert Woods. Hopefully he's okay, you know,

265
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 1: with Brandon Cooks with the concussion issues, I mean, like

266
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 1: give the ball. The girly was was out. It was

267
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:01,960
Speaker 1: obviously healthy, healthy scratch, but he was out with a

268
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,480
Speaker 1: personal issue, and I don't think the Rams really went

269
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,360
Speaker 1: to right. That's what I'm saying. I hope everything's okay

270
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 1: with him. What happened with that? But you know, going

271
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 1: back real quick to to the Bears, can we get

272
00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,679
Speaker 1: at like Allan Robinson deserves so much more, I mean

273
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:19,520
Speaker 1: so much his career arc has been blamed. Yeah, I

274
00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 1: mean Nagie didn't even try to get creative with him

275
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 1: until like later in the game. They were lining him

276
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,559
Speaker 1: up in the backfield trying to get him the ball. Yeah.

277
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:29,080
Speaker 1: Imagine imagine if he was catching pass us from like

278
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:32,319
Speaker 1: Dak or Breeze or somebody like that. It would be

279
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 1: like literally anyone, yeah, literally pretty much anyone else. We

280
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:37,599
Speaker 1: get him back to Jacksonville and have him play with

281
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 1: folds and would be awesome. Man, do you think you

282
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,079
Speaker 1: just I think I think I saw somebody tweet. You

283
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 1: think he just watches highlights and just like silently cries.

284
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:49,719
Speaker 1: But you know what, then he looks at his check

285
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:53,559
Speaker 1: book and he's like, man, there you go. That's pretty

286
00:13:53,640 --> 00:14:08,840
Speaker 1: much everything you need to know. Yeah, alright, looking back

287
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 1: at the week that was in Week eleven, yes, I

288
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:13,839
Speaker 1: know there's one more game tonight that which should be fun.

289
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 1: By the way, Chief Chargers down in Mexico City a

290
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,080
Speaker 1: lot of fun. Yeah, I think that's gonna be a

291
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 1: lot of fun to watch. But most of Week eleven

292
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 1: is in the book, So some of the big questions

293
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:24,880
Speaker 1: and we sort of touched on one, but let's kind

294
00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 1: of dive into a little bit more. I mean, is

295
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 1: Todd Gurley back or is this the case of an

296
00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:33,120
Speaker 1: offense that didn't have Brandon Cooks, that didn't have Robert Woods,

297
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:35,600
Speaker 1: that knew that Cooper Cup was probably gonna see a

298
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 1: whole lot of attention the way he did the week

299
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,800
Speaker 1: before against the Steelers, So I mean, it's Todd Gurley

300
00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 1: back or was this just you know, Sean McVeigh was

301
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 1: sort of out of options, so he had to give

302
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 1: Gurley the ball. This to me is game game plan specific.

303
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 1: You know, they only used GoF to drop back eighteen times.

304
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:57,720
Speaker 1: To me, I just don't think Sean McVeigh trust's goff whatsoever. Uh.

305
00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 1: You know you mentioned Woods and Cooks absences. Sure, but

306
00:15:00,640 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 1: at the same time, you win football games in the NFL,

307
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 1: when we've seen the Rams win plenty of them by

308
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 1: aggressively throwing the ball downfield, and that's just gone in

309
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 1: this offense right now. You know, obviously you take out

310
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,800
Speaker 1: the two top options. It's fine. Gerald Everett was banked

311
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 1: up last night too and basically didn't play. That was

312
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 1: a killer. I mean still though, Sean mcveigh's just it's

313
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 1: just clear he's lost. He's lost all confidence in golf.

314
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 1: And it makes sense, uh, this based on what we've

315
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: seen this season. I will say, you know, the Rams

316
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:27,720
Speaker 1: did a really good job and McVeigh did a really

317
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 1: good job scheming against the Bears front seven last night.

318
00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 1: Golf was basically not under pressure at all, uh the

319
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:35,840
Speaker 1: whole game when he did drop back. But yeah, they

320
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 1: they just at this point, the basically their paths to

321
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:41,720
Speaker 1: victory is is pretty clear. You know, they want to

322
00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 1: limit golf and run the ball and hope that their

323
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:46,120
Speaker 1: defense keeps him in the ball game. Yeah, they they've

324
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 1: got to protect their turnover prune quarterback. Girley played seventy

325
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 1: seven percent of the offensive snaps. That's what we need, Okay,

326
00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 1: and I get it, we're selfish a fantasy owners, but

327
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:56,240
Speaker 1: that's what we need. That's what the Rams need. I

328
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 1: just said it. That's what they need to do to

329
00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 1: win football games. Play good defense and run Todd Gurley.

330
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 1: And the match up this scup coming week is not

331
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 1: great against Baltimore. I get it. But if McVeigh sticks

332
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 1: to the game plan in the blueprint that he used

333
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:11,640
Speaker 1: to beat the Bears last night, then suddenly Todd Gurley

334
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:13,680
Speaker 1: is going to be a little bit easier to start

335
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 1: every single week because there was a few a few

336
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 1: weeks stretched there where you know, if Todd Gurley was

337
00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 1: in your lineup, you were scratching your head thinking what

338
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 1: am I getta get here? The Rams are right on

339
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 1: the cusp of the playoffs too. I mean, the Eagles

340
00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 1: are five and five, the Panthers are five and five

341
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:29,400
Speaker 1: and looking like they're trending down. Rams can sneak in

342
00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:32,520
Speaker 1: and that get that six six seed in the playoffs

343
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 1: because the Bears are the Bears are pretty much out

344
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 1: of it by now. Yeah, I think that that lost

345
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 1: might have pretty much cooked the Bears. Uh So, yeah,

346
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 1: I know everybody was excited. Although you know, the Malcolm

347
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,440
Speaker 1: Brown touchdown at the end, I'm sure fresh. But the

348
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 1: good thing was that when Gurley scored his touchdown, that

349
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 1: was actually Malcolm Brown series and they brought Gurly in

350
00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 1: so so that was good. And the early owners, Curly

351
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 1: owners have to be thrilled too because the previous four

352
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 1: or five games, I mean, Gurley and not in anywhere

353
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:02,520
Speaker 1: close to this type of volume, so I mean, and

354
00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:04,240
Speaker 1: they also they threw the ball to him out of

355
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:07,080
Speaker 1: the backfield a little bit more. Um. So, the good

356
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:09,880
Speaker 1: news is he's got Arizona still coming up on the schedule,

357
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:11,719
Speaker 1: and then he's got the Cowboys in week fifteen, and

358
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 1: clearly the Cowboys can't stop the run. And then you've

359
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 1: got San Francisco in a week sixteen, which is not ideal,

360
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 1: but all we're looking for Sean mcveigh's volume. Just keep

361
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,159
Speaker 1: it up, keep it up, Todd, Gurley's healthy. Give him

362
00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 1: the damn ball like you did last night. I mean, look,

363
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:28,879
Speaker 1: I thought they were gonna kind of you know, load management.

364
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,200
Speaker 1: Todd Gurley until the last part of the season. Managed here,

365
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,080
Speaker 1: were here last year, right exactly, And now you're good,

366
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 1: Now you're ready given the ball? Do we have to

367
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:42,639
Speaker 1: stop picking on the Falcons defense? Like I mean, like, so,

368
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:44,680
Speaker 1: it's two weeks in a row. You know, they shut

369
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 1: down Drew Brees and the Saints last week in the Dome. Uh,

370
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,040
Speaker 1: they shut down. And I know Kyle Allen is not

371
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,840
Speaker 1: on the same level, although I did have some concerns

372
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:57,640
Speaker 1: about that they shut down Kyle Allen. Uh. Which side note,

373
00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:00,400
Speaker 1: By the way, Christian McCaffrey scored thirty fan the points

374
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:02,680
Speaker 1: without getting in the end zone. You know, Christian McCaffrey

375
00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:05,440
Speaker 1: scored thirty thirty Fantasy points with Kyle Evan playing maybe

376
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 1: the worst game I ever quarterback. He was Christian McCaffrey is,

377
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 1: he's he's a superhero. He's a fan at this point.

378
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,919
Speaker 1: But I mean the bigger question is the Falcons have

379
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 1: turned things around, and I was looking at it last night.

380
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 1: Part of it has to do with they're getting a

381
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:23,480
Speaker 1: lot more pressure on the quarterback and they're not even

382
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 1: blitzing as much. But they're just getting to the quarterback.

383
00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:29,320
Speaker 1: Eleven sacks the last two games. Suddenly that secondary doesn't

384
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:31,720
Speaker 1: have to cover quite as long. They're not getting picked

385
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 1: apart as much. I'm not saying that, you know they're

386
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 1: not they're not matchup proof, but maybe they're just not

387
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,840
Speaker 1: the soft target they once were. No Marcus, this defense

388
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 1: going into the Saints game had seven sacks all year.

389
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:48,520
Speaker 1: They've had eleven in the last two games. They had

390
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:51,960
Speaker 1: two picks all year. They had four yesterday. And now

391
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 1: you've got Jamie's coming into the Dome and I am

392
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 1: sitting Jamis Winston if I can coming off a four

393
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 1: interception game. I said it a couple of weeks ago

394
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 1: that I'm starting to trust Jamis, but Jamis is not

395
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 1: whether he's just not, he just isn't because of his

396
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:10,160
Speaker 1: tendency to have those implosion games. And next week home

397
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,920
Speaker 1: game for Atlanta, you know, I mean Raheem Morris is

398
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,440
Speaker 1: getting himself back on the on the map for potentially

399
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 1: another head coaching job, the way that he has switched

400
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 1: things up on this defensive side of the football. Like

401
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:23,280
Speaker 1: I said, it seems like the Niners in the Atlanta

402
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:26,080
Speaker 1: Falcons changed personnel in the last couple of weeks because

403
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:30,000
Speaker 1: Atlanta's defense has been impenetrable. When when you hold Drew

404
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:33,119
Speaker 1: Brees at home to fewer than ten points, it was

405
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:36,679
Speaker 1: the fewest points any Saints team had scored when Breeze

406
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:38,879
Speaker 1: and Peyton were on that were on that in that

407
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:43,200
Speaker 1: franchise's roster. I mean, you you can't mess with Atlanta's

408
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 1: defense anymore. You just can't. Like, this is one of

409
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 1: the things that that we have to look at where

410
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:49,840
Speaker 1: you look at the big picture, right and you think,

411
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 1: like the Saints earlier in the season, they had getting

412
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 1: crushed by quarterbacks the first three weeks, and then suddenly

413
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 1: they sort of changed things and and and and turn

414
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,760
Speaker 1: things around and they were tougher Atlanta's Yeah, they're not

415
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,720
Speaker 1: a pushover anymore. They they really aren't. And and Jamis

416
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 1: goes from like, wow, man, he's a must start against

417
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 1: Atlanta to like, I don't know if I want to

418
00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:10,120
Speaker 1: play him too, just real quick. It did. It did

419
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 1: definitely help Yesterday. The Falcons got Desmond true Font back.

420
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:14,879
Speaker 1: He didn't place. He hasn't played since Week five, and

421
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:17,240
Speaker 1: true Fund is like pretty much the only good cornerback.

422
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 1: So getting getting some of their backup guys off the

423
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:22,920
Speaker 1: field helped. And and two weeks ago against the Saints,

424
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:25,640
Speaker 1: Andrew's Pete got hurt in that game their stud tackle,

425
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,000
Speaker 1: and I think that really hurt them in terms of

426
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:29,760
Speaker 1: the way the Falcons were kind of using their their

427
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,000
Speaker 1: defensive ends to kind of stunt and apply pressure. And

428
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 1: then yesterday, obviously Kyle Alans just melted down. It's just

429
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:38,320
Speaker 1: maybe it was a little bit the Falcons getting pressure

430
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 1: on him, for sure, but Kylen was really bad. I mean,

431
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 1: some of the throws he was making were just completely

432
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:45,960
Speaker 1: ill advised or just some of the most interaccurate throws

433
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,640
Speaker 1: I've seen all years. So I think the real litmus

434
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,879
Speaker 1: test will come this week with Jamis. And Jamis is

435
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:54,680
Speaker 1: always good for fun. That's always good for some fun

436
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:57,320
Speaker 1: or a headache. How many people have lost hair with

437
00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,800
Speaker 1: Jamis Winson on their fantasy football team? Just pulling it

438
00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:06,240
Speaker 1: out clumps Jamis yesterday? You know the one pick, Yeah,

439
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,719
Speaker 1: got benched after that, But who would have predicted that

440
00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:12,480
Speaker 1: Cameron brad would have led that team and all of

441
00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:16,240
Speaker 1: those receiving categories yesterday? That was bananas. But when you

442
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,840
Speaker 1: got Cameron Braton, Scott Miller. I got to load him

443
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 1: up with targets. Mike Evans. Hello, you just got to

444
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:22,800
Speaker 1: load him up with target Evans was not very good,

445
00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 1: you know, he wasn't two games in a row where

446
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 1: he's kind of been pedestrian. I mean, even Chris Godden

447
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,760
Speaker 1: wasn't great. He scored a touchdown that was helped, otherwise

448
00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:30,200
Speaker 1: he was just sort of happy. Yeah, Godwin in the

449
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 1: last few weeks has not been all that great. I mean,

450
00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 1: he still loved what he did earlier in the season,

451
00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:36,600
Speaker 1: but he slowed down for sure. Okay, So have you

452
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:38,840
Speaker 1: sort of touched on this. I asked this question last

453
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:41,439
Speaker 1: week and at the time you said no, and it

454
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:44,200
Speaker 1: was understandable. So I'm gonna ask it again though, now

455
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:47,000
Speaker 1: that we're past these two games. Is Kyler Murray a

456
00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:50,720
Speaker 1: QB one for the rest of the season? Dude? Listen,

457
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,919
Speaker 1: I I give up. Here's my white flag. And you

458
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,560
Speaker 1: guys know I loved Kyler. Kyler I was I was

459
00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 1: higher and Kyler than I wasn't. Almost any quarterback outsid

460
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson going into the season. Um, the two games

461
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 1: against the Niners and he scores twenty three and twenty six. Um. Yeah, listen,

462
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:11,479
Speaker 1: I was wrong on the I mean I was right.

463
00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:14,440
Speaker 1: The matchups were bad on paper, and in that first game,

464
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:16,800
Speaker 1: you know, Kyler really got sort of bailed out by

465
00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,160
Speaker 1: that and the Isabella Aight eight yard touchdown, which is fine.

466
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,160
Speaker 1: He played and honestly like he only threw fur hundred

467
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 1: fifty yards Marcus, Yeah, but he had two touchdowns. Yeah.

468
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 1: I mean the six or seven yards rushing in the

469
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 1: touchdown were huge. They're off this weekend. They've got the

470
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 1: Rams and Steelers, the Browns and the Seahawks. He's he's

471
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 1: a QB one, uh, you know, locked and loaded every

472
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:38,880
Speaker 1: single game the rest of the way. I just want

473
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 1: to see I want to I'm really excited to see

474
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,119
Speaker 1: Kyler and Cliff next year because once Kyler gets some

475
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 1: more receivers and they get him a little more help,

476
00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:48,040
Speaker 1: this offense is just gonna be bananas because they are

477
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,639
Speaker 1: They're doing some big things and Kyler is just dropping dimes.

478
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 1: I mean some of the ball made a couple of

479
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:56,160
Speaker 1: throws out, which is just incredible. Markets He's made those

480
00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:00,280
Speaker 1: year man like he has been locked in. So here,

481
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:02,520
Speaker 1: here's a little question. You know, on the Wednesday shows,

482
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:04,840
Speaker 1: we've been looking forward a little bit. So next year

483
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:08,280
Speaker 1: it's gonna be Mahomes and Lamar as the top two

484
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:13,040
Speaker 1: quarterbacks in some order. Right, We're not sure is Kyler three?

485
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,119
Speaker 1: I mean you got Russell also obviously, I think that

486
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 1: is Kyler three. That was the first one that popped

487
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 1: in my head. Is Wilson. Yeah, I think a lot

488
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 1: of people took Wilson Overler this year, and maybe that's

489
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:26,520
Speaker 1: even down a little bit more. You're probably a little

490
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:29,960
Speaker 1: disappointed he took Kyler over Wilson. But I think that

491
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 1: will be the call next year, is that will be

492
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:33,719
Speaker 1: the three verse four and Watson. I think Watson will

493
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,520
Speaker 1: be in that conversation as well. Again too, Yeah, Watson

494
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:39,359
Speaker 1: needs to have a stronger finish to the season, and

495
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,560
Speaker 1: he's got some bad matchups coming up, so if he

496
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:45,400
Speaker 1: ends up struggling, you can see Watson being fifth, with

497
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 1: Wilson or Kyler being three four in that area. Where

498
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,399
Speaker 1: does that fall into that group? Yeah, dude, Dack's up

499
00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 1: there too, right there, playing great football right now. Tack

500
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:58,680
Speaker 1: is the QB one everybody forgets about. Yeah, every single

501
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:00,280
Speaker 1: week he puts out twenty points in it's just like,

502
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:03,239
Speaker 1: oh he didn't He's had two bad games this year. Well,

503
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,160
Speaker 1: I also Scott New England this week at Fox Burrow.

504
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 1: Is he sit No, I'm not sitting dock. Um. I

505
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 1: think also because we're still I think we're still a

506
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:16,160
Speaker 1: little stuck on the This team leads with zeke uh,

507
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,920
Speaker 1: and I think you know that that's not true anymore.

508
00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:22,399
Speaker 1: But you know, old old old habits died hard a

509
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:25,359
Speaker 1: little bit. You know, Doc, his deck is really taking

510
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 1: another step forward here this year. And I mean, by now,

511
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:30,639
Speaker 1: if it's not clear to everybody that Deck is is

512
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:33,200
Speaker 1: the leader and the clear engine of this team, I'm

513
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 1: not really sure what you're watching. I mean, he has

514
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 1: just been He's just been a stud all year longer.

515
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,399
Speaker 1: He's not had Outside of that one game against the

516
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,200
Speaker 1: Packers where he struggled, he has been amazing all year.

517
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:44,920
Speaker 1: And by the way, is he doing the back hip

518
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:50,679
Speaker 1: thrust that it was pretty good? Um? What do we

519
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 1: do with this Washington backfield? Now? I mean neither guy

520
00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,200
Speaker 1: was particularly great. I mean Darious guys had the long

521
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:58,080
Speaker 1: catch and run for a touchdown and that sort of

522
00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:00,400
Speaker 1: gave him a decent day when it was all said done.

523
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:04,919
Speaker 1: But both guys are splitting carries. Uh. The team is bad. Uh,

524
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:08,120
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know what to do. Bro. They

525
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 1: got Detroit, they have I'm playing Darius. Darius out snapped him.

526
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 1: It was really really close. It was really close. But

527
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,399
Speaker 1: Darius is getting the opportunities. I think, you know, we

528
00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 1: talked about like the Chris Thompson role he and he

529
00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:22,720
Speaker 1: had that he had that long touchdown UM in the

530
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:27,359
Speaker 1: game yesterday. But I feel like, because Peterson is a

531
00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:30,640
Speaker 1: you know, he's playing, he's playing well for a man

532
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 1: of his age. But I really think the Redskins want right,

533
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:35,960
Speaker 1: I really want to see. I really feel like the

534
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,600
Speaker 1: Redskins need to see what they have in Darius and

535
00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,200
Speaker 1: whether or not he can get the job done. Because

536
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:44,520
Speaker 1: if and hopefully this doesn't happen, you know, that that

537
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:46,679
Speaker 1: that he has another injury or he struggles, you know,

538
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:48,240
Speaker 1: the Redskins have to think about what they're gonna do

539
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:50,200
Speaker 1: in their backfield next year because Adrian Peters is probably

540
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:52,239
Speaker 1: not gonna be on the roster. So I feel like,

541
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,400
Speaker 1: you know, slowly, weekend and week out, as we get

542
00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,160
Speaker 1: through the rest of the regular season, I think Darius

543
00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:58,880
Speaker 1: is going to see more and more snaps and more

544
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 1: and more touches and I would absolutely play him coming

545
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 1: up because I mean, this is a great matter. He

546
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,680
Speaker 1: won't get a better matchup all year against Detroit, and

547
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:10,000
Speaker 1: the Redskins have one of the easier schedules remaining for

548
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:14,200
Speaker 1: running backs. So I mean, and maybe I'm saying that

549
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 1: because he's he's a buddy of mine, but like, I

550
00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:18,239
Speaker 1: think he's set up really well next week. I mean

551
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:19,920
Speaker 1: I I I said, and I wrote a couple weeks

552
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 1: ago that Darius Guys is probably that guy. He's akin

553
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:24,760
Speaker 1: to what we saw with Damian Williams last year, who

554
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:27,640
Speaker 1: comes in late in the season, has fresh legs, gets

555
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:29,800
Speaker 1: the ball, and could possibly get you to a fantasy

556
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:32,880
Speaker 1: playoff for fantasy championships. So I still do believe that. Um,

557
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:37,119
Speaker 1: I just I hope that eventually Bill Callahan decides to

558
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:39,680
Speaker 1: kind of have a more distinct division of labor than

559
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 1: these two guys splitting carry's kind of down the middle.

560
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:43,840
Speaker 1: And the big problem too is Wendell Smallwood played a

561
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,320
Speaker 1: bunch yesterday too. I mean, he ran, he led this

562
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:49,440
Speaker 1: backfield and routes run pretty significantly, and maybe that'll that'll

563
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,640
Speaker 1: chip back towards Geist's side. I would I would bet

564
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 1: as this season moves along here. But Dwayne Haskins guys

565
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:59,000
Speaker 1: took another six sacks yesterday, and and outside of a

566
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,280
Speaker 1: few really nice throws, it was that busted play against

567
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,040
Speaker 1: Um he hit the McLaurin but it got called back. Yeah,

568
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 1: that's sucked for for if you started with Florin too.

569
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:10,399
Speaker 1: I boy, I just really don't have much confidence that

570
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 1: this Haskins led team, even though the guys guys can

571
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 1: be amazing, but if they're never going to be in

572
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 1: the red zone and getting score scoring opportunities, it's gonna

573
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 1: be really hard for guys today to ceiling. But definitely,

574
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 1: for sure, it was nice to get him back yesterday,

575
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,080
Speaker 1: and I just gotta hope he stays healthy. Right, But again,

576
00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:26,159
Speaker 1: you look at the schedule, right, I mean this is

577
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,959
Speaker 1: this is a pretty good schedule. You've got Detroit coming up.

578
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:31,199
Speaker 1: Then you got Carolina and they beg and crushed by

579
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:34,879
Speaker 1: running backs all season long, Green Bay bad against running backs,

580
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 1: Philadelphia that's gonna be a tough one, and then you

581
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:39,960
Speaker 1: got the Giants, So I mean, really one bad matchup

582
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 1: next the next theory is amazing, Yeah, that's for sure. Yeah,

583
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,240
Speaker 1: Plus they gotta figure out how to hide Dayne Haskins

584
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,560
Speaker 1: a little bit. They can't have him leaving out there,

585
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 1: so that's just not gonna work out. Last one here.

586
00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:52,919
Speaker 1: Can we trust Baker Mayfield for the rest of the season,

587
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 1: And like we we, we can't lay at the schedule

588
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,399
Speaker 1: right as sposed to lighten up. And he played well

589
00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:59,800
Speaker 1: against what we thought was a good defense in Pittsburgh.

590
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,440
Speaker 1: That was the Baker we we kind of expected to see.

591
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:05,320
Speaker 1: He played with a lot more confidence. He was not

592
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 1: seeing ghosts back there. And and look, I mean, I

593
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 1: just I thought he handled that Steelers pass rush extremely well.

594
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:13,479
Speaker 1: Uh And now you know, we've been mentioning that the

595
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:15,679
Speaker 1: schedule does get a lot easier for them down the

596
00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:18,439
Speaker 1: stretch here. Uh, you know, I'm not sure he's going

597
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,639
Speaker 1: to be the same QB one we were expecting him

598
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:22,719
Speaker 1: to be. But he gets Miami next week, then they

599
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:24,720
Speaker 1: play the Steelers again. That'll be really interesting. But then

600
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 1: you know, back week four team they'll have the Bengals,

601
00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:29,400
Speaker 1: so and then Arizona. Yeah to Yeah, at least through

602
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:32,120
Speaker 1: the next four games are really solid and uh kind

603
00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:34,440
Speaker 1: of I kind of think Baker will be a hot

604
00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:36,840
Speaker 1: pick up this week, no doubt. And you know, I've

605
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 1: been a big critic of his um only because you know,

606
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 1: in the industry, we all loved him and he was

607
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 1: just awful. And I mean, honestly, you know, he had

608
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 1: that He had that negative two point performance against San

609
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:47,880
Speaker 1: Francis going a week five or thinking, what in the

610
00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 1: hell's going on and everyone dropped them across the board.

611
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 1: But since then he has had four performances of seventeen

612
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,960
Speaker 1: plus points, including two with over nineteen UH in his

613
00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:59,040
Speaker 1: last five. The only game where he tripped up was

614
00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:01,480
Speaker 1: against New England, but we sort of expected that. Now

615
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,400
Speaker 1: you've got Miami where I mean, Baker's owned in forty

616
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 1: pc of leagues on NFL dot Com, so he's out

617
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 1: there in half a league's um. You know, I think

618
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:13,200
Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh game is tougher. That's at Hinz Field, and

619
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:16,160
Speaker 1: there's obviously some raw emotions there between those two teams.

620
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:17,480
Speaker 1: So I don't just a little I don't know if

621
00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 1: that's a great matchup, But Miami, Cincinnati, Arizona and three

622
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 1: of his next four, you know, getty up, giddy up

623
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 1: for that one, and Baker should be added and started

624
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 1: this week if you need a quarterback against the Fish.

625
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:31,560
Speaker 1: I mean, they seem to have kind of turned things

626
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 1: around there a little bit offensively. Um, some of it

627
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:36,680
Speaker 1: is just cutting down on dumb penalties or whatever. But

628
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:38,400
Speaker 1: they also are playing I think, which is that too,

629
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 1: because Odell Beckham Jr. Is still not I was about

630
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 1: to say, if ob J doesn't go for like a

631
00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:44,280
Speaker 1: hundred bills in the score next week, I don't. I

632
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,600
Speaker 1: don't know what. Well not Remember this is the Jarvis

633
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 1: Lander revenge game. Yeah exactly. Um, let's look at some

634
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,560
Speaker 1: running back situation, some things that happened on Sunday that's

635
00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:56,880
Speaker 1: sort of left us, uh feeling a little bit weird.

636
00:29:57,320 --> 00:30:01,280
Speaker 1: Um to say the least. I out five of them yesterday,

637
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:04,960
Speaker 1: starting with Brian Hill, who was everybody's favorite waiver wire

638
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:08,440
Speaker 1: pick up over the week. Um, yeah, that didn't really work.

639
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:10,520
Speaker 1: He got fifteen carries for thirty yards and he had

640
00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 1: a catch for eight yards something like that. It was

641
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:17,360
Speaker 1: not a great day. And this was one I remember

642
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:19,800
Speaker 1: watching Brian Hill watching some of his tape when he

643
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:21,680
Speaker 1: was at Wyoming and the other thing, and he was

644
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 1: just sort of kind of a jag, kind of just

645
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 1: a guy. He's an inside grinder guy. Yeah, I mean,

646
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,960
Speaker 1: there's nothing that really jumped out about him on tape

647
00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:32,440
Speaker 1: to me, and I think I sort of selectively put

648
00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,440
Speaker 1: that part away and just looked at the fact that, hey,

649
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 1: he's the starter. Now he's gonna get touches. It's gonna

650
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:39,520
Speaker 1: be great, And at least for me, it was sort

651
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:43,040
Speaker 1: of a reminder that, you know, not every single player

652
00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:45,560
Speaker 1: is plug and play just because they did that opportunity,

653
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 1: and I think that's what sort of happened with a

654
00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:48,720
Speaker 1: lot of us. With Brian Hill this week, he probably

655
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:50,680
Speaker 1: got a little bit unlucky too, because Allison came in

656
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 1: with his first NFL carrydown, But also Hill had a

657
00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,720
Speaker 1: touchdown called I was gonna say he had a touchdown

658
00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:00,520
Speaker 1: that was called back on penalty. I think if anything,

659
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,000
Speaker 1: it's just Brinan Hills, not the receiver DeVonta Freeman is.

660
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 1: I mean, he can't. He can't be used in the

661
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,880
Speaker 1: passing game because he just doesn't have much lateral lateral

662
00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 1: movement and lateral agility ability. Yeah, So that was one um.

663
00:31:12,320 --> 00:31:15,800
Speaker 1: I mean, so going forward though, like this week, do

664
00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:19,040
Speaker 1: we what do we do because Freeman very likely could

665
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:20,800
Speaker 1: be out again. Yeah, but they got the bucks this

666
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:23,080
Speaker 1: week though, so and that that makes it easy right now?

667
00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:25,400
Speaker 1: You're not playing any of the Atlanta running backs. I

668
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,959
Speaker 1: mean volume, That's what we talked about. And he had

669
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:31,160
Speaker 1: a great matchup this week. Tampa baysed defense against the

670
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:36,239
Speaker 1: run is brutally freaking tough. Man. Sants and Camara did

671
00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:39,520
Speaker 1: a really good job yesterday though they carved up yeah,

672
00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:42,560
Speaker 1: I mean had ten catches. The Tavius didn't do a thing,

673
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:46,160
Speaker 1: but Brian Hills not a It was just Brian Hill

674
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,360
Speaker 1: is not even close to Alvin. Camara in the Saints

675
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:51,600
Speaker 1: offensive line is light years better than the Falcon's office.

676
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,120
Speaker 1: All right, So we touched on this little bit. Uh,

677
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 1: both Scarbro what what what? What I mean? Look, I

678
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 1: I know we looked into this week and I know

679
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 1: both of you guys. I know, Grant you certainly were like,

680
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 1: hey j D. Mckinston playing Um you know, I know

681
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:10,720
Speaker 1: Ty Johnson wasn't necessarily on a lot of people's radar,

682
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:13,440
Speaker 1: but he was there. And then both Scarbro, which I

683
00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 1: don't know, maybe this is some kind of weird revenge

684
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 1: game because he was a cowboy for two seconds, like

685
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:20,680
Speaker 1: two seconds, um, I mean he got a lot of

686
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:24,440
Speaker 1: the touches, he scored a touchdown, just I don't know.

687
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:26,200
Speaker 1: I just I feel like we stay away from you.

688
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:28,880
Speaker 1: At this point. You need to learn the lesson to

689
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 1: stay away from this Detroit backfield because Matt Patricia is

690
00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:34,000
Speaker 1: going to do something different every week. They've got three

691
00:32:34,120 --> 00:32:35,800
Speaker 1: it seems like they've always got three guys. They cut

692
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 1: Paul Perkins in the middle of this past week and

693
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 1: then gave both scarpro four teen care. I think they

694
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 1: promoted him on Saturday right from the from the it

695
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:45,920
Speaker 1: wasn't like that, Yeah, it was. It was. It was

696
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:48,920
Speaker 1: pretty close. Yeah, the to the game time, after the tray,

697
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 1: after the tray Carson debacle, after we all expected to

698
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:54,840
Speaker 1: be Ty Johnson, and right, I just yeah, full on

699
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:57,200
Speaker 1: avoid this lines back from Yeah, I can't. I just can't.

700
00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:01,840
Speaker 1: I can't with this group. So I'm done. David Johnson

701
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:05,480
Speaker 1: played seven snaps, didn't touch the ball of the snaps.

702
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,680
Speaker 1: That's it. Is it over at least for this year.

703
00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 1: I mean, Kenyan Drake has looked pretty good. Let me

704
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:12,200
Speaker 1: ask you, let me ask you a question, Okay, Yeah,

705
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,920
Speaker 1: Daved Johnson has done nothing and the one little bit

706
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:17,680
Speaker 1: of film that we've seen on him, which was like

707
00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 1: last week, he ran like he had a concrete block

708
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 1: on his back, right lifted, lifted the right thing this

709
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 1: past week basically not now they're off this week, right,

710
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,080
Speaker 1: they have a bye. If there's a hot free agent

711
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 1: on the waiver wire, is David Johnson. Now it has

712
00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:36,640
Speaker 1: to be a lot because there's there's not much out

713
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 1: there on the waiver wire. It have to be a lot.

714
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 1: You have to get real lucky. He looks they don't

715
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 1: think he's I don't know why he's even active. I mean,

716
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:47,959
Speaker 1: you were last two weeks. If he really is, why

717
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 1: why don't they just sit him down? But yeah, they

718
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 1: don't really they don't really have another option. I mean

719
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:54,440
Speaker 1: if DJs, well, what happens if Chase when Chase Edmonds

720
00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:56,760
Speaker 1: comes back, then you're looking at a three headed monster.

721
00:33:56,920 --> 00:33:58,920
Speaker 1: Right Chase Edmonds could come back after their by with

722
00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:01,800
Speaker 1: that hamstring injury, you know, So that is that is

723
00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:04,400
Speaker 1: that even more fuel for the I don't know if

724
00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:07,800
Speaker 1: maybe Johnson's worth a roster spot at this point. Yeah,

725
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:09,520
Speaker 1: I don't know that I can let go of David Johnson.

726
00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:11,480
Speaker 1: I don't think I can either, But at the same time,

727
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:13,400
Speaker 1: I don't really think we'll know maybe until the end

728
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 1: of year, what he's dealing with. Right, because the Cardinals

729
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,560
Speaker 1: sure haven't really been very forthright with their injury situations

730
00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:22,960
Speaker 1: all years all and especially when it comes to David Johnson.

731
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,560
Speaker 1: Since Week seven, he has scored two tents of a

732
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:31,759
Speaker 1: Fantasy point. Yep, yep, that's it. Point to and I like,

733
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:36,640
Speaker 1: you missed one game, uh two games? I think what

734
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:38,919
Speaker 1: he was he was asked two games, was active against

735
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:42,799
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay, had a fumble and then didn't didn't touch

736
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 1: the ball against San Francisco. And you've got the Rams

737
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 1: after the by, and the Rams are tough against the run.

738
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 1: You've got Pittsburgh after that. I mean, Pittsburgh's kind of

739
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:53,719
Speaker 1: they haven't been as good against the run on the

740
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:55,840
Speaker 1: road this season. Then you've got Cleveland and at Seattle.

741
00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:59,080
Speaker 1: I don't know, dude, I mean like I feel, I

742
00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:01,200
Speaker 1: don't know. I mean maybe maybe if you put my

743
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:03,120
Speaker 1: feet to the fire. I haven't in the league. I

744
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:04,719
Speaker 1: just think I guess I could do it. I guess

745
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:06,799
Speaker 1: the hope with DJ now is you hold him through

746
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:08,799
Speaker 1: the by and then you'll just have to see in

747
00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:11,480
Speaker 1: week thirteam what role he had. But would you play

748
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:13,960
Speaker 1: him against the Rams? No? Probably right, I mean you're

749
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 1: not playing him but you'd be hard pressed to find

750
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:19,000
Speaker 1: a free agent out there, like, oh my god, the

751
00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 1: waiver wile running this atrocious All right, we're gonna do

752
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:25,600
Speaker 1: drop drop him from blow Scarborough. Here we go, harry On. Mean,

753
00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:30,239
Speaker 1: so we all thought James Connor was healthy. There are

754
00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:33,560
Speaker 1: leagues out there where Jalen Samuels got cut. David Johnson

755
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:35,839
Speaker 1: gets cut for Jalen Samuels. If yeah, if we get

756
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:39,560
Speaker 1: word that Connor by Wednesday when Waiver clarens, my guess

757
00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:41,880
Speaker 1: is that Connor won't play. I mean, I'm just totally guessing.

758
00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:43,920
Speaker 1: But he couldn't make it through a quarter with that shoulder,

759
00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:46,239
Speaker 1: and he had two weeks to get healthy. That's a

760
00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:49,080
Speaker 1: that's a fair one. I think maybe that might actually

761
00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:50,640
Speaker 1: be one of the only ones you can make for

762
00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:53,120
Speaker 1: for DJ. I guess my point is, I guess the

763
00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:55,600
Speaker 1: hope with him now is you just hold on to

764
00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:57,920
Speaker 1: a week thirteen see what what kind of role he plays,

765
00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:00,759
Speaker 1: because look, the Cardinals they need receiver, and if DJ

766
00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:03,640
Speaker 1: is healthy, he will be involved. It's just, you know,

767
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:05,840
Speaker 1: I don't really think you can have much more confidence

768
00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:08,680
Speaker 1: in it than that. Though it sucks. I love David too. Yeah,

769
00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:11,759
Speaker 1: he's a good dude, and I was so happy for

770
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:14,680
Speaker 1: his success. But right now, I know, for me maybe

771
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:18,480
Speaker 1: a little sentimentality to just he's such a good guy.

772
00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:22,320
Speaker 1: Yesterday was supposed to be the Miles Sanders day, and

773
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:24,080
Speaker 1: he had the bulk of the touch as he played

774
00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:27,759
Speaker 1: the majority of the snaps there. Boston Scott, who you know,

775
00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:31,120
Speaker 1: everybody's favorite sports talk radio caller, um right, was right

776
00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:34,840
Speaker 1: behind him. Their yardage totals really weren't that far off.

777
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:38,759
Speaker 1: And now I don't know Jordan Howard. We'll see if

778
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 1: he's back next week. We'll see if j Gi he

779
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:42,440
Speaker 1: starts to get more into the into the mix there

780
00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 1: in Philadelphia. I mean, we know that Doug Peterson is

781
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:47,919
Speaker 1: never gonna be a one running back guy. I mean,

782
00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:50,120
Speaker 1: I don't know, Graham that that one hurt my heart

783
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:52,360
Speaker 1: a little bit yesterday. It did, and the role was

784
00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:55,279
Speaker 1: amazing he played of the snaps yesterday. It's just he

785
00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:58,680
Speaker 1: basically didn't get involved as a receiver, which was really weird.

786
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,840
Speaker 1: I mean, I fully expected with all of the Eagles

787
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:05,240
Speaker 1: injuries out wide, I mean, notice Shawn Jackson, no Alicean Jeffrey,

788
00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:07,880
Speaker 1: They're trotting out Nelson aguilar Is the number one receiver.

789
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,239
Speaker 1: I I kind of fully expected Sanders to be way

790
00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:12,719
Speaker 1: more involved as a receiver, and it just didn't happen.

791
00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:14,880
Speaker 1: I mean, Earth's and Goddard had good games, but that

792
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:16,560
Speaker 1: was pretty much it for the Eagules. So let me

793
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:18,160
Speaker 1: ask you guys a question. And I've been on this

794
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:21,760
Speaker 1: for weeks and weeks, now, Okay, Sony Michelle had six

795
00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 1: point four points. He is now averaging fewer than seven

796
00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:27,440
Speaker 1: Fantasy points per game when he and Rex Burkehead are

797
00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:32,319
Speaker 1: both active. Is Sony Michelle playable in games where Rex

798
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:34,319
Speaker 1: burke had Honestly, I'd rather drop I would drop Sonha

799
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:37,520
Speaker 1: Michelle Johnson. Yeah, because at least at least if at

800
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:39,600
Speaker 1: least if David Johnson does come back, he has an

801
00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 1: opportunity to be involved in the passing game. I mean, Michelle,

802
00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:46,120
Speaker 1: is just you mentioned Rex Burkehead his last three games

803
00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:49,680
Speaker 1: seven point four four points by six point four Birkehead

804
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:54,000
Speaker 1: is healthy. Now Burkehead got touches in that game yesterday, Um,

805
00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:57,719
Speaker 1: and that is eras Sony Michelle's. This Patriots offense is

806
00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:02,000
Speaker 1: not the same. This. This is a borderline below, slightly below.

807
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:05,359
Speaker 1: It's a slightly blow average offense right now. I mean

808
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:07,520
Speaker 1: they're throwing the ball a ton and they can't run

809
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:09,720
Speaker 1: the ball. Their left tackle spot is just a disaster.

810
00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:12,160
Speaker 1: I mean they have getting They're getting nothing out of

811
00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:15,600
Speaker 1: their out of their tackle play right now. Yeah, okay,

812
00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:17,919
Speaker 1: piggy piggyback in on that. I'm gonna put your feet

813
00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:20,640
Speaker 1: to the fire again. The Cowboys have given up nineteen

814
00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:23,680
Speaker 1: plus points of two straight quarterbacks, including Kirk Cousins and

815
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:26,759
Speaker 1: Jeff's driscoll who had twenty seven. Is Tom Brady a

816
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:31,600
Speaker 1: play for you next week? Probably not really Cowboys defense,

817
00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:34,239
Speaker 1: And I know because I'm a Cowboys we look like

818
00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:37,520
Speaker 1: garbage against the pass right now. And also keep in

819
00:38:37,560 --> 00:38:39,200
Speaker 1: mind what I was talking about a few weeks ago.

820
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:43,120
Speaker 1: The Cowboys defense got fat and happy off a crappy

821
00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 1: quarterbacks from the defensive side and Sam Donald almost beat

822
00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:48,960
Speaker 1: us for twenty points. You know, Brady has thrown the

823
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:51,400
Speaker 1: That in mind, the only good quarterback that we've held

824
00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:54,000
Speaker 1: in checked this year as Carson Wentz. That's it. Brady

825
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:56,359
Speaker 1: has forty pass attempts now in five of his last

826
00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:58,560
Speaker 1: six games, and the only has seven touchdowns to show

827
00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:01,280
Speaker 1: for it in that span. It just I think Philadelphia

828
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:03,879
Speaker 1: is tougher at home, though tougher at home. I feel

829
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:07,960
Speaker 1: like this also continues a pattern we've seen of Brady lately,

830
00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:10,400
Speaker 1: just kind of fading in the second half of seasons,

831
00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:13,880
Speaker 1: you know, And it's it's what happens when you reached

832
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:16,920
Speaker 1: a certain age. Yeah, and you're taking hits and they

833
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:18,719
Speaker 1: haven't needed him to. And I think this is another

834
00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:20,799
Speaker 1: team where they're going to really rely heavily on their

835
00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:23,480
Speaker 1: defense and Brady will throw the football. He's but he's

836
00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:25,719
Speaker 1: just not I don't know. I feel like I could

837
00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:29,640
Speaker 1: probably find some other options so here, so you know,

838
00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:31,880
Speaker 1: I get it, you know. You know, he's obviously an

839
00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:34,880
Speaker 1: older dude. Um. So he had eleven point nine against

840
00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:37,200
Speaker 1: the Jets. They were crushing that team in that game,

841
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:42,320
Speaker 1: crushing week after that, scored almost almost nineteen against Cleveland.

842
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:45,240
Speaker 1: You'll take that. Then he's got at Baltimore, tough matchup

843
00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:48,799
Speaker 1: by week. Then at Philadelphia. Look at the stats. The

844
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:52,319
Speaker 1: Eagles are really good at home, not on the road. Defensively,

845
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:54,600
Speaker 1: they are really tough on their home field. And now

846
00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:56,759
Speaker 1: he's got the Cowboys at home, and then he's got

847
00:39:56,880 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 1: Houston and Kansas City and Cincinnati. Yeah, I mean, I

848
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,120
Speaker 1: I don't think the Cowboys are bad. Like I'm looking

849
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:05,279
Speaker 1: at I'm looking at at his numbers so far this year, right,

850
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:07,319
Speaker 1: and his big games have come against defense that were

851
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:11,960
Speaker 1: really bad. But but we just gave up. But you

852
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:15,160
Speaker 1: guys are and we gave up almost two Cousins the Cowboys,

853
00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:18,239
Speaker 1: almost twenty Donald. The Cowboys aren't Jets bad. They're not.

854
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:23,440
Speaker 1: They're not They're They're not that bad. We lost the Jets.

855
00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:26,200
Speaker 1: I don't know, I like Brady. This is just when

856
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:28,799
Speaker 1: I feel like maybe this is just me being a

857
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:31,480
Speaker 1: pessimistic Cowboys fan. But I'm looking at the way that

858
00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:33,640
Speaker 1: team is playing defense right now against the past and

859
00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:36,160
Speaker 1: even against the run. I mean, Dalvin Cook crushed US.

860
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:38,799
Speaker 1: We gave up a touchdown of both freaking Scarborough. I mean, like,

861
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:41,799
Speaker 1: I just we're just not playing good football right now.

862
00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:44,320
Speaker 1: I think Brady is a good play this this upcoming

863
00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 1: week against US. I mean, lets the Cowboys really get

864
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:48,879
Speaker 1: up to play the Patriots, and we've been playing down

865
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:51,440
Speaker 1: to a lot of our competition. I mean, really, Detroit

866
00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:55,920
Speaker 1: was in that game the entire afternoon and we lost

867
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:59,919
Speaker 1: to the Jets. All Right, I'm sorry, all right, Yeah,

868
00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:02,959
Speaker 1: uh last last running back here, and we talked about

869
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:06,960
Speaker 1: this before the show started. Calin blah, Yeah, this one's awful.

870
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:13,959
Speaker 1: I mean, just how how right? Nine carries for nine

871
00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:22,640
Speaker 1: yards let's there, and five catches for eighty four touchdown

872
00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:26,200
Speaker 1: and he tied Leonard for a net and fantasy points. Somehow,

873
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:31,080
Speaker 1: the dude has sixty four carries this year, his longest one,

874
00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:35,560
Speaker 1: his longest one has gone for eight yards. Eight yards.

875
00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:39,600
Speaker 1: I mean, I just yeah, at this point, I think

876
00:41:39,600 --> 00:41:41,960
Speaker 1: it's pretty clear that Caitlin Blage is not in NFL

877
00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:44,480
Speaker 1: running back just the Dolphins really don't have another option.

878
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:46,960
Speaker 1: Though they don't have any other options. Mark Walton back

879
00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:50,160
Speaker 1: in two weeks, and that's it look all that good?

880
00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:52,000
Speaker 1: I mean, when you're taking it kind of does help.

881
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:53,719
Speaker 1: When you're running back, is so bad that he would

882
00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:55,440
Speaker 1: be better off just falling over once he gets to

883
00:41:55,480 --> 00:42:00,160
Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage. But I don't know, I'm what

884
00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:02,960
Speaker 1: does what does that say for like Patrick Laird, what

885
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,680
Speaker 1: does that say for Miles Gaskin? I mean what does

886
00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:08,000
Speaker 1: that say for these guys as well? Has Miles Gaskin

887
00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:12,640
Speaker 1: even played seven snaps yesterday? He was a top so far,

888
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:16,240
Speaker 1: He's the top running back Patrick Layard played played fourteen

889
00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:20,120
Speaker 1: snaps yesterday. I don't what does that safe for those

890
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:23,719
Speaker 1: guys though, that they keep running Kalen Blage out there,

891
00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:25,759
Speaker 1: and maybe it means layerd will will be involved a

892
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:27,719
Speaker 1: little bit more because his snaps have increased now that

893
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,239
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, I'm with you. I'd say they want to

894
00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:31,879
Speaker 1: see what they have in him, but I think they know.

895
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:35,560
Speaker 1: But right, I guess they're only using Layered as a

896
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,879
Speaker 1: receiver because he's only gotten a few carries so far.

897
00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:43,279
Speaker 1: But man, man um, Yeah, oddly enough, it's a really

898
00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:47,680
Speaker 1: heavily packed twelve backfield. They got uh Lage at Arizona

899
00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:52,000
Speaker 1: State col Miles Gaskin went to Washington. Yeah, I mean

900
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:53,600
Speaker 1: that has nothing to do with anything. I just thought

901
00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:56,960
Speaker 1: it was interesting to point out. I just man, and look,

902
00:42:57,800 --> 00:42:59,600
Speaker 1: I will I will take the l on this one

903
00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:02,040
Speaker 1: because for the season I thought, you know, klin Blage

904
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:04,120
Speaker 1: could be a deep sleeper. I liked his home run

905
00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:07,000
Speaker 1: ability with his speed and everything. But man, he's just

906
00:43:07,239 --> 00:43:10,800
Speaker 1: he's not good. He's bad. He's all strike out. You know,

907
00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:12,840
Speaker 1: there's those guys in the MLB who just have a

908
00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:15,000
Speaker 1: ton of home run potential, but they just swing at everything.

909
00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:20,280
Speaker 1: Kylen Bldge just can't hit anything. Just man. Yes, yesterday

910
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:22,040
Speaker 1: might have been about the worst, and I mean the

911
00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:24,359
Speaker 1: fact that he scored a touchdowns sore that helped him.

912
00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:26,560
Speaker 1: But man, that's that's bad. And you know what's crazy

913
00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:31,560
Speaker 1: is that we're out here going into week twelve and

914
00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:34,200
Speaker 1: we're trying to figure out whether or not we can

915
00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:40,279
Speaker 1: start klin Blage. Jonathan Williams boast cover like this is

916
00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:44,200
Speaker 1: where we're at right now. Man, not good. So that

917
00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:47,640
Speaker 1: actually is a nice segway into the waiver wire because

918
00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:49,960
Speaker 1: there are there are guys out there that are worth

919
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:52,440
Speaker 1: picking up. This week we mentioned Jonathan Williams at the

920
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:54,799
Speaker 1: top of the show, especially because Marlon Mack looks like

921
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:57,279
Speaker 1: he's already ruled out for Thursday and we're not sure

922
00:43:57,280 --> 00:43:59,960
Speaker 1: how much further beyond that. So Jonathan Williams is there.

923
00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,080
Speaker 1: Got Niheim Hines in there as well. Again, if you

924
00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:05,000
Speaker 1: if you somehow miss out on Williams, uh, you know,

925
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:07,600
Speaker 1: if you're in a really really deep league, um nahem

926
00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:10,600
Speaker 1: Hines is a possibility for you. But Scarborough is there.

927
00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:14,560
Speaker 1: Although I don't know, man, I'm scared, I know, I mean,

928
00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:19,160
Speaker 1: the matchup is good, right, I mean yeah, matchups, the

929
00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:25,600
Speaker 1: matchup is good. And then Johnson. It is absolutely for

930
00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:28,600
Speaker 1: those that are desperate in deep leagues and are looking

931
00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:32,040
Speaker 1: for somebody who might get touches um, because that's where

932
00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 1: we're at right now in Detroit. God, has there been

933
00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:39,200
Speaker 1: Has there been? Uh? I guess a more detrimental injury

934
00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:43,279
Speaker 1: to a team's backfield than carry on Johnson on Johnson, man, like,

935
00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:45,480
Speaker 1: I mean carry on Johnson would have been a league

936
00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:49,320
Speaker 1: winner this year. It went from it went from stardom

937
00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:52,320
Speaker 1: every single week to who the hell is getting the football?

938
00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,719
Speaker 1: I'm just staying away. Uh. No offense who had a

939
00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:57,200
Speaker 1: pretty good game is the probably would have had a

940
00:44:57,200 --> 00:44:59,520
Speaker 1: better game if Brandon Allen could have you know, hit

941
00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:02,359
Speaker 1: him on God and accent and then that next play

942
00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:05,520
Speaker 1: or two plays later the touchdown goes to Troy Troy

943
00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:08,239
Speaker 1: fu mcgy. Yeah great. But the No A fan the

944
00:45:08,320 --> 00:45:10,239
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks actually started to get some more looks.

945
00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:14,600
Speaker 1: So that's that's that's definitely encouraging, especially because Kyle Rudolph

946
00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:16,319
Speaker 1: is on a bye this week, so you may get

947
00:45:16,360 --> 00:45:20,400
Speaker 1: a tight end dude the holiday season, bro, and he's

948
00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:22,680
Speaker 1: putting it up man. I think well, the combination of

949
00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:25,160
Speaker 1: the Vikings throwing more and Adam feeling not being there.

950
00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:28,600
Speaker 1: But whatever, I'll take it. Baker Mayfield, who we talked about,

951
00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 1: is really picking things up lately. He's a nice play

952
00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:34,600
Speaker 1: this week. Randall Cobb has back to back hundred yard

953
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:37,319
Speaker 1: games for the Cowboys, although they play the Patriots. As

954
00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:41,560
Speaker 1: you mentioned, so h Hunter renfro who I have been

955
00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:45,279
Speaker 1: a fan of the last few weeks especially Yeah, yeah, yeah,

956
00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:47,600
Speaker 1: and he had too I believe it was too where

957
00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:50,080
Speaker 1: he got tackled like at the two or inside the

958
00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:51,960
Speaker 1: two where he would have had a touchdown. It just

959
00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:54,640
Speaker 1: blows my mind that he plays football. He's so small, right,

960
00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:56,839
Speaker 1: He's just he's a tiny little dude. He just looks

961
00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:59,880
Speaker 1: like he's waving the flag for all of us. Vertically challenged.

962
00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:02,960
Speaker 1: Poke out there says, I don't even think he's I

963
00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:05,120
Speaker 1: don't think he's close. I'm not sure about that. Yeah,

964
00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:07,880
Speaker 1: because yeah, yeah, like I Waite five and I'm not

965
00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:11,280
Speaker 1: sure the Hunter renfroze yet. No, I'm not buying that one. Um.

966
00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:14,160
Speaker 1: Jeff Driscoll, who again has a good matchup this week

967
00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:17,080
Speaker 1: against Washington, who played well against the Cowboys on Sunday.

968
00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:20,200
Speaker 1: So he's out there. This one Ryan freaking Griffin, who

969
00:46:20,239 --> 00:46:22,640
Speaker 1: I talked about in my FABS five last week. Dude,

970
00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:25,200
Speaker 1: all he does his score Fantasy point and Chris Herndon

971
00:46:25,320 --> 00:46:28,759
Speaker 1: is out. Ryan Griffin touchdown machine. Ryan's position is a

972
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:31,640
Speaker 1: disaster right now. He absolutely needs to be owned in

973
00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:36,440
Speaker 1: every Get the Raiders this week. Every freaking Bryan Griffin.

974
00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:38,080
Speaker 1: What does Marcus like to say? He's not the hero

975
00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:40,360
Speaker 1: that we wanted. It's a hero, although I know a

976
00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:42,800
Speaker 1: lot of folks are sort of like I think I tweeted,

977
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:44,920
Speaker 1: what is a Daniel Brown when he caught a touchdown?

978
00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:48,040
Speaker 1: Right right? Yeah? Who is? I don't know? Um, but yeah,

979
00:46:48,120 --> 00:46:51,320
Speaker 1: Ryan Griffin's out there. Deebo Samuel who had another huge

980
00:46:51,400 --> 00:46:54,480
Speaker 1: game for the Niners on Sunday, and uh, Emmanuel Sanders

981
00:46:54,560 --> 00:46:56,799
Speaker 1: is is not right. He's hurting. I mean, he went

982
00:46:56,800 --> 00:46:59,120
Speaker 1: out and he played, but you could tell he's definitely hurting.

983
00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:01,800
Speaker 1: And so Deebo Samuel is starting to pick up the

984
00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:03,359
Speaker 1: workload there. And he was a guy I think at

985
00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:07,520
Speaker 1: the start of the season, um people thought could love

986
00:47:08,360 --> 00:47:13,000
Speaker 1: especially because yeah, Dante Pettis is I mean, the bad

987
00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:14,919
Speaker 1: news is that they've got Green Bay coming up. Green

988
00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:18,440
Speaker 1: Bay's defense has been tough against against wide receivers for

989
00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:21,200
Speaker 1: the most part this season overall. But I mean, if

990
00:47:21,239 --> 00:47:24,680
Speaker 1: if Emmanuel's banged up, I mean, Jimmy g Is has

991
00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:26,359
Speaker 1: got to throw the ball to somebody. And we don't

992
00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:30,160
Speaker 1: know what the status of George Kittle, So so Deebo

993
00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:33,480
Speaker 1: could just get fed targets re lentency and can we

994
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:36,320
Speaker 1: can we all give a little bit of credit to

995
00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:39,759
Speaker 1: Ross d Welly who was He was my tight end

996
00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:42,480
Speaker 1: in DFS this week. Um, he was one of my sleepers.

997
00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:44,399
Speaker 1: I think everyone has I mean, dude, like, I mean,

998
00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:47,759
Speaker 1: it's the Cardinals, but has there been has there been

999
00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:52,879
Speaker 1: an easier matchup every single week to predict then tell

1000
00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:55,680
Speaker 1: people to start the tight end facing the Cardinal? Right,

1001
00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:59,200
Speaker 1: But I'm bummed the Cardinals are on by this coming up, right, So,

1002
00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:01,160
Speaker 1: like I I tweeted that out in a couple of

1003
00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:04,200
Speaker 1: you like, oh, Evan Ingram, Yeah, but red Ellison scored

1004
00:48:04,200 --> 00:48:06,319
Speaker 1: a touchdown in that game, so from a tight end,

1005
00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:08,839
Speaker 1: so tighten as a hole still had a decent game

1006
00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:10,719
Speaker 1: and then Tyler Riffer didn't do anything against it. But

1007
00:48:10,760 --> 00:48:13,319
Speaker 1: if you remember that game, Andy Dalton threw the ball

1008
00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:15,560
Speaker 1: behind him when he was opening the end zone, would

1009
00:48:15,600 --> 00:48:18,520
Speaker 1: have had a touchdown there. So that and you know

1010
00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:22,120
Speaker 1: who they Jacob Hollister has a match up against the

1011
00:48:22,120 --> 00:48:26,040
Speaker 1: Cardinals in week six team where we are. So even

1012
00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:27,759
Speaker 1: if you have a pretty good tight end on your

1013
00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:30,560
Speaker 1: roster right now, Hollister should be one of the most

1014
00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:33,440
Speaker 1: added players off the wire, if for no other reason

1015
00:48:33,920 --> 00:48:36,080
Speaker 1: then to hold on to him in hopes that you

1016
00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:38,440
Speaker 1: make the championship and play him against there. I've been

1017
00:48:38,440 --> 00:48:42,320
Speaker 1: a lifelong Jacob Hollister Dinasy owner for two weeks, so lifelong,

1018
00:48:43,080 --> 00:48:46,360
Speaker 1: that's well, that's yeah, I'm waiting for I'm waiting for

1019
00:48:46,440 --> 00:48:49,319
Speaker 1: that Week sixteen matchup. Man. So basically it's like just

1020
00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:52,000
Speaker 1: put anybody in that Seattle tight end spot will distant.

1021
00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:55,760
Speaker 1: Now it's Allister and yeah, you just the way they're

1022
00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:58,000
Speaker 1: using him lead you to believe that he can continue

1023
00:48:58,040 --> 00:49:01,799
Speaker 1: to be productive that often. All right, it's it, We
