1
00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:05,480
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Drive. I am Dale Lally. He

2
00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:09,320
Speaker 1: is Matt Williamson, and of course this is the afternoon

3
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:12,719
Speaker 1: show here on Steelers Nation Radio. We bring it live

4
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:17,279
Speaker 1: to you every day of the week the weekday should

5
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:20,279
Speaker 1: say so if you if this is your first time, yeah,

6
00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:24,119
Speaker 1: we're here every day of the week. Um. I was

7
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:27,120
Speaker 1: just looking here on Football Outsiders, Matt in the Steelers

8
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:31,040
Speaker 1: line there, their adjusted line yards is now twenty in

9
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:35,880
Speaker 1: the league in terms of offensive line play. The one

10
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:38,720
Speaker 1: spot where there's still a little bit below or actually

11
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:42,920
Speaker 1: a lot low lower than you'd like, would be second

12
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,159
Speaker 1: level rank and open field rank because those are more

13
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 1: running back stats to me than they are. I didn't

14
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 1: know what those stats existed for offensive lineman. Um. I

15
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 1: think that's like a Kendrick Green type of thing, you

16
00:00:56,360 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 1: know what I mean, getting downfield blocking dudes. Um okay,

17
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 1: I mean I'm digesting that for the in you're getting

18
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:07,880
Speaker 1: to the second or open field yards, I should say,

19
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, second level yards. They're they're averaging one yard

20
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:15,120
Speaker 1: on the second level, which is obviously yeah, they're twenty

21
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 1: so they're twenty eight there in terms of open field

22
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 1: yards point one eight, which is thirty second. Yeah, okay, well,

23
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:23,319
Speaker 1: I mean I bet nausea has something to do with that.

24
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,199
Speaker 1: I would think Daniels would be good in that capacity.

25
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 1: I would think Cole and Dots and would not. You know,

26
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: they could struggle in terms of athleticism and and frankly,

27
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:35,720
Speaker 1: I think that's why there was a competition. So why

28
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,600
Speaker 1: Wrench and Green was green verse Dots and to me

29
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,959
Speaker 1: was bruiser verse athlete. Yeah, you know what I mean,

30
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 1: That's exactly what it was. Yeah, but the power success

31
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 1: is actually there, which is fourteenth in the league. Their

32
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 1: percentage of runs that are stuffed that have been stuffed

33
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 1: is sixteen percent. That's eighth best in the league. And

34
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 1: that's not too bad. Yeah. So I mean, you know,

35
00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 1: people complain about the lot. Just the people who are

36
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 1: saying this line stinks, right aren't watching the game or

37
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: don't know the other thirty one lines at all, you know,

38
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 1: or they're just comparing it to Fanica and Webby and

39
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 1: Dirt and you know those type of dudes. You know,

40
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 1: this is this is offensive line play in the league. Again,

41
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 1: I'm not be you know, trying to boast up this

42
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 1: team that's not playing well. But I think it's an

43
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 1: average line now, which we all would have taken him

44
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 1: absolutely right. I mean they're not here before the season started. Well,

45
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,959
Speaker 1: the Steelers offensive lines right in the league at the

46
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: end of the year, right right, right, it's a success.

47
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: And I'm not a mastermind o line coach or technician.

48
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,960
Speaker 1: I mean, those guys are so fine tuned with their technique.

49
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 1: But I did call out coach Meyer a little bit

50
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,079
Speaker 1: at one point, saying guys like James Daniels early in

51
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,919
Speaker 1: their Steeler career aren't playing as well as they did

52
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 1: other places. You know, Is that a coaching thing? I

53
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 1: don't know. I'm just throwing it out there. Well, if

54
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do that, I think I better call him

55
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 1: out for maybe just took a minute, you know. And

56
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 1: now the technique that he's teaching them is working, you know.

57
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,760
Speaker 1: It's what I said, Oh along, three days in the

58
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 1: practice with pads and well the you know offensive linemen,

59
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,640
Speaker 1: we're getting beaten. Well, what's wrong with this offensive line?

60
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 1: Like you know, that's all. That was the biggest question

61
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: we had all offseasons. How long would it take the

62
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 1: line to gel? And the three days into training camp,

63
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 1: people stay through two games into the preseason as this

64
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 1: line stinks, get rid of it. The Jacksonville game was

65
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 1: just such a bad look in the preseason. However, you

66
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 1: and I explained this away the day after, like that

67
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,799
Speaker 1: was bad. That the front is loaded with big time

68
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 1: talent that are all young and up and coming players

69
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 1: first over all type guys. And when you look at

70
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 1: when you watch that tape on a second view, the

71
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 1: Steelers weren't Their number one goal wasn't to block the Jags,

72
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 1: it was to get better, and they put people in

73
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 1: bad situations, namely Dan Moore against Alan time and time again,

74
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,000
Speaker 1: and it didn't always go well. Well, they might not

75
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 1: be as good today if they didn't do that, then,

76
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 1: you know, that's what matters. Now they figured some things out.

77
00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, The offensive line to me, is not the problem.

78
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 1: The quarterback is now, I don't believe an issue. Let's

79
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 1: take a look at the Mark Sussler's Quarterback Index here

80
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 1: we take a look at every once in a while.

81
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, and see where Kenny Pickett comes in at

82
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: thirty two this week is Skyler Thompson. If he's gonna

83
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 1: start start, he's gonna start again. He gets against the Vikings.

84
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 1: That's a done deal. He's a starter, which means he

85
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 1: might be the start against Steelers. Yeah, well I would

86
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 1: think they said to. They said to it was going

87
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 1: to start throw some lights, going to practice today. Yeah,

88
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 1: so that's the first step in returning from a concussion.

89
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 1: Doesn't mean he's been cleared by any stretch. I would

90
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 1: think too our Bridgewaters back. The more I think about it,

91
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 1: you would think they'll see one of the two. We'll

92
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,480
Speaker 1: see Skyler Thompson again. This is why it matters who

93
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 1: you play and when you play him. And I'm aout

94
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 1: defending Skyler Thompson. But that poor guy got zero reps,

95
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 1: is an undrafted rookie and got thrown in the first

96
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,920
Speaker 1: quarter against the Jets, like they get no chance to see.

97
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:59,599
Speaker 1: But he should be thirty two at thirty one, Baker Mayfield.

98
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 1: I think p J. Walker is the starter. Now J

99
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,960
Speaker 1: Walker will be the starter. I guess he's doing. Who

100
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:10,040
Speaker 1: played most last last week? Is Baker has been horrible, awful,

101
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 1: really really bad? Yeah at thirty down two spots. Baker's

102
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 1: down two spots. By the way. Also, this guy right, uh,

103
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 1: Davis Mills. I'm shocked by that, Like I never thought

104
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 1: he was gonna be a star. And I know that

105
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 1: there's this narrative of if he would have been the

106
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 1: first overall pick. No one had thought his rookie year

107
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 1: was good. I mean, I'm not in that camp. I

108
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,359
Speaker 1: thought he was a good player. I thought he was

109
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 1: thought him and Mac Jones out of that group were

110
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 1: over the hump, and we're NFL starters. It doesn't mean

111
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,039
Speaker 1: to go in the whole fame. He's been bad this

112
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 1: year though. He's a career backup. I think he's a

113
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:44,920
Speaker 1: career backup, and I think I'm wrong. I mean, he's

114
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 1: not over that hump. There. They are going to they

115
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 1: don't have their quarterback. They're gonna draft. They're gonna draft

116
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:54,679
Speaker 1: a quarterback at nine up a spot justin fields trending

117
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: the right way. Yeah, I think we're both excited about

118
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 1: him and think Thursday could be a good showing for him.

119
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:03,159
Speaker 1: They player bad Washington secondary. Um, they're starting to figure

120
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 1: some things out in the passing game. The offensive line

121
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 1: is at least run blocking well. Um. You know, I

122
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: don't know whether they pass block well or not. I

123
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: don't think they do. But the key for them, though

124
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,640
Speaker 1: is they have to survive this year and if they

125
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:20,040
Speaker 1: truly are dedicated the fields. They're gonna do what Philly

126
00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:24,239
Speaker 1: in Miami did for their highly talented first your first

127
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 1: contract quarterback and go trade for DJ Moore or not

128
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,839
Speaker 1: even necessarily draft maybe draft one too, but they better

129
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: get a receiver. It's still shocking to me that they

130
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 1: let James Daniels go. Yeah, I mean they chose Ogan

131
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 1: job over and basically yeah, and then right end up,

132
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 1: neither Steelers will gladly take their cast off. Yeah at

133
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:53,040
Speaker 1: four spots, Bailey Zappy, I guess, I mean I'd rather

134
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 1: every day of the week, I might rather Baker. I mean,

135
00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 1: I guess Zappy's had a better a year than Baker

136
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 1: and maybe fields, but there's no like now that there's

137
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 1: a week's worth of tape on him. Um, I forget

138
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 1: who they play. They play Cleveland this week, still a

139
00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 1: bad I mean, I bet he doesn't play well, but

140
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 1: they come out and try to run the football. We'll

141
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 1: get to that when we do our DFS line up

142
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,680
Speaker 1: later this week with RANDERI Stevenson could get carries, so

143
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 1: he's set up real well this year or this week

144
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 1: at twenty seven up four spots, can you pick it? Okay?

145
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: I mean I'll see who's ahead of him. I mean,

146
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 1: there's guys like Cooper Russia ahead of them, which I

147
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 1: guess I won't fight on. Um. I mean, if you

148
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,920
Speaker 1: just look at the stats themselves, the four interceptions stand

149
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:49,200
Speaker 1: out and the one fumble. Um, but the four you know,

150
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:53,480
Speaker 1: how many negative plays has he truly made? Though? Five?

151
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 1: And I'm talking about truly missed an open fever or

152
00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: the you know, pitching the ball one like that which

153
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 1: isn't show which was his fumble was his fumble? A

154
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 1: bad interception here and there, but like a hell Mary

155
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 1: interception is not a negative play to me, you know,

156
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 1: I mean I think that his negative plays aren't his

157
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 1: aren't his shop in the box score more than they

158
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 1: do the tape. Yeah, he's average just six point nine

159
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 1: yards six point nine per attempt. Okay, that's it should

160
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: go up. Yeah, that's I mean, that's going to continue

161
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: to go up. But six point nine is okay, that's

162
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 1: you know, average NFL starter stuff from one start of

163
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 1: his life. Well, I mean I expect that goes up,

164
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 1: not down. Though. At twenty six up USPT Zack Wilson,

165
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 1: I guess, I mean he's led his team to two wins.

166
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 1: He's still completing his passes. I would say he threw

167
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: a swing past to Breece Hall that he took eighty

168
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:53,439
Speaker 1: yards that I could have completed. But yeah, I would

169
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 1: put Kenny Pickett right now above this guy. I mean,

170
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,319
Speaker 1: if the Jets said, I'll give you Zack Wilson for Pickett,

171
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:00,079
Speaker 1: I would not say yes. No, I wouldn't either, it

172
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:01,960
Speaker 1: would I wouldn't. You'd say, throw in two first round

173
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 1: picks twenty five holding steady is Matt Ryan. He's Mayfield level.

174
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,319
Speaker 1: He should be down in the like thirties. I know

175
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,040
Speaker 1: it's disrespectful for guys that have started and had success

176
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 1: in this league, like Mayfield, especially Ryan. But if you

177
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 1: just had the life, if you isolate this great co

178
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 1: Cell says, isolate the quarterback that stinks. Seven interceptions, eleven fumbles,

179
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 1: eleven fumbles in five games. That's a full season's worth

180
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 1: of fumbles. That just screams like old man Frailty too. Yeah,

181
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,960
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like, can't secure things in

182
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 1: the pocket, can't withstand a hit balls coming out. You know,

183
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:38,400
Speaker 1: I don't think that's just bad luck that he happened

184
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 1: to fumble. I might mention to you the one play

185
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:43,600
Speaker 1: in the Denver game where they had a rusher after

186
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,959
Speaker 1: about three seconds of rusher came free and still, I

187
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,080
Speaker 1: don't know, four yards away from him and he just

188
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:51,440
Speaker 1: off his back foot, just throw the ball in the

189
00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 1: air towards the side. Just what are you doing? It's

190
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 1: like the Austin Powers skit when the steamrollers slowly coming out,

191
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,200
Speaker 1: you know, like, dude, get out of the way. Does

192
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:03,320
Speaker 1: He just doesn't want to get hit anymore? Right, right, right?

193
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:07,120
Speaker 1: And he's getting hit a lot. At twenty four down

194
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:12,200
Speaker 1: seven spots, Trevor Lawrence had a rough one, A rough one. Yeah.

195
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 1: I thought he bounced past big against a bad team

196
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:18,760
Speaker 1: because he didn't handle the weather. Michael's another veteran quarterback

197
00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 1: I would put below him, though I'm sure several. Yeah,

198
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 1: But I mean, folks, Picket's gonna have some days like

199
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:29,320
Speaker 1: Lawrence too. It's just bound to happen. Ben Head days

200
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:34,160
Speaker 1: like that. That's just twenty three up a spot. Andy

201
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 1: Dalton he played fine. I mean, anything negative to say

202
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:48,679
Speaker 1: about his one game? Uh two? You know. Marcus Mariotta,

203
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,720
Speaker 1: he least get He's got four interceptions in seven fumbles games.

204
00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:56,440
Speaker 1: His legs bring a lot to the table for the

205
00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 1: way they play though, you know, so, I don't think

206
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 1: that's a terrible call on it. But he's completing fifty

207
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 1: seven point seven percent of his passage, which is well

208
00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 1: below average. It's well below average, and they don't use

209
00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,559
Speaker 1: their receivers particularly wise. You know, as we'll get into

210
00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:15,559
Speaker 1: bright next segment. Yeah uh, at twenty one down five spots,

211
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:20,079
Speaker 1: Cooper rush down, five people around him went up, you know.

212
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 1: I mean, that's all power ranks work. It's not always

213
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,680
Speaker 1: that he played worse. Yeah, well, I said, rush through

214
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,080
Speaker 1: the ball just sixteen times against the Rams and hasn't

215
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:29,959
Speaker 1: crossed two and thirty five yards of the air and

216
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 1: any of his four starts. He but he's taking care

217
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,080
Speaker 1: of the football. He didn't care the football, and he's

218
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,880
Speaker 1: doing what he's told. I mean, that's good enough. Um,

219
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 1: that's gonna hit the wall. He'll be He'll be another

220
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:41,720
Speaker 1: one of these guys that will be in the league

221
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,560
Speaker 1: for ten years, Chase Annual or one of those dudes

222
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 1: right right there could be a lifetime back up and

223
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,960
Speaker 1: be a multimillionaire and not too much at twenty holding

224
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,959
Speaker 1: steady Jacoby Brissette. I think he's the best name you've

225
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:57,599
Speaker 1: mentioned so far. How he's actually playing. I mean, I

226
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,160
Speaker 1: don't think he'll end up twenty in two months, but

227
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 1: he's had a good year. At nineteen up seven spots,

228
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:08,360
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones, I thought he played very well and against

229
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:11,199
Speaker 1: the Packers, so I think I bump him, which I

230
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 1: guess that's why even they show you that they don't

231
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 1: trust him. No, No, they definitely don't, because I mean

232
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,960
Speaker 1: they're running all those wildcats stuff with U and you

233
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,800
Speaker 1: know it's just right. No, they're getting the most out

234
00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,080
Speaker 1: of him. I don't think they look at him like,

235
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,440
Speaker 1: oh man, I wish you had picked we we're gonna

236
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 1: give him a new contract to teas. But they're getting

237
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 1: the most out of him, which I think is get

238
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:37,559
Speaker 1: three touchdown passes in five games three yeah, two? Yeah,

239
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 1: but you know if he's got three yeah uh At

240
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 1: eighteen down five spots, Matthew Stafford struggling. We still haven't

241
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:52,439
Speaker 1: gotten the rush yet. Yeah we did, Wilson. Oh, I

242
00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 1: think he said rush USh Russ Wilson's Yeah. I think

243
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,840
Speaker 1: Stafford is better than Russ. I think so too, But

244
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,640
Speaker 1: he's a tough go of things lately. But I think

245
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 1: he's better than Wilson. He's ever sing six point nine

246
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,319
Speaker 1: yards per past attempt. By the way, they don't protect

247
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,720
Speaker 1: at all at all. And I think he's fighting an injury.

248
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 1: And you know they're already talking about signing Nodell and

249
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,080
Speaker 1: but he is completing nearly seventy of his passes. Like

250
00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:16,080
Speaker 1: that's the difference here between they're all the Cup and Higbee.

251
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,040
Speaker 1: That's fine, but I'm saying it's bad. But they're all that.

252
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 1: That's that's just catching every pass. Right. Where would they

253
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:24,839
Speaker 1: be without Cooper Cup it maybe it'd be one of

254
00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 1: the worst teams in the league. It's seventeen down three

255
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:31,439
Speaker 1: quick Cooper Cup. Let's say he's equivalent to t J.

256
00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 1: Watt in terms of how good he is at football.

257
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 1: I mean he's in the same neighbor he set the

258
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 1: Triple Crowd. They were both top ten, and the Rams

259
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 1: would be one and four without Cooper Cup and they'd

260
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 1: be in the Pound might be one and four if

261
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:45,560
Speaker 1: you took Aaron Donald away. Maybe that's that's what I mean.

262
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,200
Speaker 1: I mean, like they're the Superowl champs last year. That's

263
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:49,080
Speaker 1: why I called them out. It's particularly because you can

264
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 1: do that with a lot of teams. But like that

265
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 1: offense is so bad it would be light years worse

266
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:58,440
Speaker 1: than the Steelers without Coup, without a doubt, dreadful. Seventeen

267
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:03,439
Speaker 1: down three spots. We finally get the Russell Wilson. I

268
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,360
Speaker 1: just Stafford over him. I would two in five games.

269
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,160
Speaker 1: He's complaining fifty nine point four percent of his passes,

270
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 1: he's making plays his legs either. Yeah, he's got seventy

271
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:17,120
Speaker 1: three rushing yards. Um, It's just there's there's nothing there.

272
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 1: I'm not seeing him elevate anybody. I'm not seeing leadership poise,

273
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:27,000
Speaker 1: you know. Uh, he's missing, right, and his supporting cast

274
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:30,040
Speaker 1: isn't isn't the blame? No, No, he's got Stafford doesn't

275
00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 1: have no line. Right. Kind of a big deal, right

276
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:37,240
Speaker 1: right right? Uh, it's sixteen up five spots. I can't

277
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:40,840
Speaker 1: put this guy up that high. Carson Wentz, his own

278
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 1: coach just called him out this week. I forgot that

279
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:47,760
Speaker 1: we haven't mentioned him yet. He'd be down below Trevor Lawrence. Yeah,

280
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,280
Speaker 1: I mean we talked about Lawrence ten minutes ago. Don't

281
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 1: get that. Do you do anything to get excited about

282
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 1: you know? Again, his own coach called him out this

283
00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 1: week saying he's the reason why right there in last PLA,

284
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 1: heason their quarterback play isn't as good. And into the

285
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 1: two quarterbacks, two of the other quarterbacks starting in his

286
00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:09,080
Speaker 1: own division, who his own coach doesn't think he's better

287
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 1: than or below him? Okay, yeah, right, No, Russia has

288
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 1: played better than him. Yeah, yeah, taking care of the football,

289
00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 1: Dania Jones has played better than them to taking care

290
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 1: of the football is such a big part of of

291
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 1: He's got six interceptions and six fumbles. I've never met

292
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 1: Carson Wentz and I know these things are you know,

293
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 1: hard to quantify, but no one seems to like being

294
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 1: his teammate either. Yeah if you okay, so coaching him.

295
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 1: Let's let's flex us into a fantasy question. You don't

296
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 1: have a quarterback this week to play your guys on

297
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 1: buy or whatever Thursday night game is Carson Wentz on

298
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:46,640
Speaker 1: one side versus Justin Fields on the other. Who are

299
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 1: you going with? I'm going Fields for points and I'm

300
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:51,480
Speaker 1: going for Fields to be the better football player in

301
00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 1: that game. Yeah, you know what I mean? Like, who

302
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,040
Speaker 1: would I go to battle with? I'd rather have Field

303
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:56,840
Speaker 1: and he's like twenty n on this list, right, right.

304
00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 1: I know Fields has done a great year, but I

305
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 1: think he's the better. I don't. I'm with you. At

306
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 1: fifteen down four spots, Jared Goff, you had a rough

307
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 1: go of it by is coming a good time for them? Yeah?

308
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 1: They're better than a one win team too. I mean

309
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:17,840
Speaker 1: they haven't been outscored dramatically and he's been fine. Yeah,

310
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 1: and he's been better than Russ without a doubt, without

311
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 1: a doubt. At fourteen up five spots, Derek Carr, that's

312
00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 1: getting I think we said last week when he was

313
00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 1: at nineteen, he that was as low as he would be.

314
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 1: He's a good football play Yeah, and he'll be twelve

315
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 1: when the season's over or something. Uh. At thirteen down

316
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 1: a spot and this guy was too high last week.

317
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 1: Ryan Tannehill, he's still too high. Yeah, nobody wants nobody

318
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,880
Speaker 1: fears playing Ryan Tanney. Now he's taking care of the

319
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 1: football this year's but they don't throw the football, no

320
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:47,800
Speaker 1: they don't. I mean he's averaging lesson two in yards

321
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 1: passing per game. He's doing nothing. He's he's a caretaker. Yeah,

322
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 1: I mean he's kind of a ghost. Yeah. He doesn't

323
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,560
Speaker 1: even run anymore. You know, he used to be when

324
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 1: when he was younger, he could he could beat with

325
00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 1: his legs too. That's not happening anymore. Now. They're beating

326
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:01,840
Speaker 1: some bad teams, and you know, but it's not because

327
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 1: I am at six. I'm sorry at twelve. At twelve,

328
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 1: up six spots. Jimmy Garoppolo, this is his neighborhood. I

329
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:12,879
Speaker 1: mean he'll end up behind Car and more dramatic guys,

330
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,280
Speaker 1: you know right. I mean, teams much rather play against

331
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:17,440
Speaker 1: Jimmy than they would. You know, if those two, if

332
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 1: those two quarterbacks flip spots, the Niners might be undefeated.

333
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,119
Speaker 1: The Niners might be undefeated, and Car would probably be

334
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:28,280
Speaker 1: a top eight fantasy quarterback or quarterback period, and the

335
00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:30,280
Speaker 1: Raiders would still be one and four because they've had

336
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 1: a lot of bad luck to But at eleven, down

337
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 1: a spot, Kyler Murray, I think that's his lifetime neighborhood.

338
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:39,840
Speaker 1: And he's just so immensely talented. He's not gonna fall

339
00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 1: to fifteen. But I don't think he's ever gonna be

340
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:46,080
Speaker 1: refined enough to elevate anybody around them either. I don't either.

341
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:50,320
Speaker 1: And I also think Kingsbury's seat is as hot as

342
00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:54,680
Speaker 1: anyone's now gone, it's as red as those uniforms. Yeah.

343
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 1: At ten up five spots. Kirk Cousins, Okay, he's everything

344
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:03,919
Speaker 1: point seven yards per pass attempt. Yeah, it's not been No,

345
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 1: he's not going down the field a lot at times.

346
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,879
Speaker 1: Forget about justin Jefferson. They even underrated offensive line too.

347
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:13,080
Speaker 1: They've put a lot into it and starting to come

348
00:18:13,080 --> 00:18:16,320
Speaker 1: around Derrisaw guys like that. But um, some of those

349
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:20,440
Speaker 1: teams would like to have Jefferson Cook in that line. Yeah,

350
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,679
Speaker 1: it's not a bad support. Not a place to start. Uh,

351
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 1: at nine down a spot. Joe Burrow, he hasn't blown

352
00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:29,960
Speaker 1: me away this year. I mean he could be my

353
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,320
Speaker 1: quarterback any day of the week. I hope Piket turns

354
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:34,639
Speaker 1: into a Borrow type guy, and I think he was

355
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:37,919
Speaker 1: a chance he does. He hasn't been great. He's averaging

356
00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:40,840
Speaker 1: the same six point nine yards per passedempt at key

357
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:46,320
Speaker 1: is Kenny Okay, nine touchdowns, five interceptions, three fumbles. Speaking

358
00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:49,919
Speaker 1: of hot seats, and I've never seen this quantified before.

359
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:54,719
Speaker 1: Zach Taylor is like the most predictive play caller in

360
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 1: the league. They run the ball in an extraordinary number

361
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:02,400
Speaker 1: of times on first down, and they're awful at it,

362
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:06,160
Speaker 1: and he bails them out. According to Borrow, he buils

363
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 1: him out on third down time and time again. So

364
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:12,239
Speaker 1: like he's swimming against upstream, against the play calling. You know,

365
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 1: like some but you know, Taylor is not going anywhere

366
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 1: in Cincinnati Bowl. He'll get at least five more years

367
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,920
Speaker 1: in Cincinnati. Steeler fans want some good dudes there. There

368
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,840
Speaker 1: it is, Yeah, I mean, I'm not sure Stefanski is

369
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:28,160
Speaker 1: a good coach either. I don't think he is in

370
00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 1: terms of going for it and all that kind of

371
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:36,399
Speaker 1: stuff too. At eight up a spot Gino Smith, Gino Smith,

372
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:39,360
Speaker 1: he deserves it. I mean, hey, I'd rather play against

373
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:43,160
Speaker 1: Gino than Kyler or car But he's having a very

374
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,880
Speaker 1: good year. Then it's not flukey. I mean, what he's

375
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 1: doing is real. I don't know it's sustainable, but I

376
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:51,919
Speaker 1: would bet again, I'm not rushing out to pick up

377
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 1: Gino Smith to start in fantasy leaks. When we do

378
00:19:54,680 --> 00:20:00,400
Speaker 1: this exercise in week sixteen, will he be probably? Yeah?

379
00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:04,359
Speaker 1: Did you have to hear the Carol uh uh conversation? Today?

380
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 1: They asked him about Drew Locke for some reason. He's like, oh,

381
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 1: he's breathing down Gino's neck, like what, you guys have

382
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:12,760
Speaker 1: two stars here that we don't know, right whatever, breathing

383
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,440
Speaker 1: down his neck, right right, he's standing standing behind him

384
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:19,920
Speaker 1: right in the quarterback room. At seven down a spot,

385
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:24,600
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, he hasn't trust his receivers. I don't blame him, right,

386
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 1: he just doesn't. I mean he when they continually run

387
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,840
Speaker 1: the wrong routes and continually dropped the football, what is

388
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:36,399
Speaker 1: there to trust? I heard some numbers today about him,

389
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:38,919
Speaker 1: all the quick game stuff, all the adjustments at the

390
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage. He's holding the ball longer because DeVante

391
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 1: doesn't read it and get it out. You know, all this,

392
00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:48,879
Speaker 1: all the mental stuff. That's why Cobbs getting targeted, because

393
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:50,360
Speaker 1: that's the only guy he trusts to run the slam

394
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 1: when you're supposed to run a slant. You know. Yeah.

395
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:58,919
Speaker 1: At six up a spot, Tom Brady, he should be

396
00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 1: trending up. He's averaging six point eight yards per pass attempt.

397
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 1: I have a feeling this is how the conversation went

398
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,520
Speaker 1: with him and Todd Bowls after three weeks, Like, Todd,

399
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 1: you got the d I'm gonna throw it fifty times

400
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:15,280
Speaker 1: a game. And Todd goes cool, Yeah, go for it.

401
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:18,280
Speaker 1: Roger's everthing six point nine yards per pass attempt, Brady

402
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 1: everging six point eight. Okay, so well, by the way

403
00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:25,640
Speaker 1: that that's down nobody everyone's playing coross. Yeah. No, one's

404
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,200
Speaker 1: attempting passes down the field like they used to. So

405
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 1: that's a going right in that respect. It kind of

406
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 1: plays into what Kenny Pickett does well if fits well, right, Yeah,

407
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:40,719
Speaker 1: he doesn't have to Josh Process At five holding steady,

408
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:46,280
Speaker 1: justin Herbert, he's a rock despite his coach, another head

409
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:49,480
Speaker 1: coach that I think is in over his head. He's

410
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 1: I think Burrow and Herbert are doing remarkable things with

411
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,919
Speaker 1: their surroundings in spite of Yeah. At four, holding steady,

412
00:21:56,000 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 1: Jalen Hurts, sure, he's everything. Eight points six yards proposit attempt. Yeah,

413
00:22:03,200 --> 00:22:05,280
Speaker 1: I mean you have to respect his legs. Oh and

414
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,440
Speaker 1: they're hard to play against, and he's playing very well.

415
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:11,639
Speaker 1: It's not manufactured, you know, nonsense. Uh. At three is

416
00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:15,000
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson holding steady. Yeah. I think the top four

417
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:19,200
Speaker 1: pretty clear. He's ever your seven point two yards perposse attempt. Yeah.

418
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:23,600
Speaker 1: They're receivers don't catch footballs, the wide receivers. That's like

419
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:27,399
Speaker 1: a target chair for the wide receivers. It's bonkers, crazy

420
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:32,440
Speaker 1: crazy at too. Josh Allen holding Steady could be one

421
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,200
Speaker 1: for me, but you couldn't put him at too after

422
00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:39,000
Speaker 1: what he just did last right, But there he is

423
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:42,200
Speaker 1: there and then Patrick Mahomes is number one. What will

424
00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:43,840
Speaker 1: we get to see those two square off this week?

425
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:46,960
Speaker 1: This is the first time, by the way Matt and

426
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:51,560
Speaker 1: Patrick mahomes career that he is a home underdog. I've

427
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:53,439
Speaker 1: heard that. Yeah, and it's like by three points or so.

428
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:56,800
Speaker 1: And he should be because the Bills D or the

429
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,880
Speaker 1: Chiefs D is the worst of the four. Yeah, it's right.

430
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:01,600
Speaker 1: I mean the other ones are all awesome, you know,

431
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 1: and they should be. Yeah. I would probably take Casey

432
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 1: if you're gonna be points though. Yeah, in the building,

433
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 1: you know, quarterback battles pretty straight up, and that's never

434
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,200
Speaker 1: the case for the Bills. Yeah, I would have Alan

435
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:16,800
Speaker 1: over Mahomes though, I would. I would as well. I

436
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:19,680
Speaker 1: think he's a superstar. Yeah. Nothing I saw last week

437
00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:22,720
Speaker 1: change my mind. I mean I just wrote about that

438
00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:25,199
Speaker 1: on Steelers dot Com with with Pickett, Like you go

439
00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 1: from playing the guy who was arguably one of the

440
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,320
Speaker 1: top tours three quarterbacks in the league and now you

441
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 1: get to play the great Yeah, the greatest has ever

442
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:38,400
Speaker 1: done it? Right? All right? Yeah, exactly great. Can you'll

443
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,359
Speaker 1: tell some stories someday. You know, my lap and my

444
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 1: first two career starts we're against Alan. Here's his Hall

445
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 1: of Fame bust and here's Brady. You've probably heard of

446
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 1: these two. All right, yeah, exactly. So. Um, I know

447
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 1: we're about to talk fantasy, but it's just on my mind.

448
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:59,400
Speaker 1: Fantasy wise, those top four quarterbacks Lamar Hurts, Mahomes Alan.

449
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,280
Speaker 1: If you don't have one of those in fantasy, many

450
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:05,119
Speaker 1: of you are feeling that pain. The drop off is

451
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,679
Speaker 1: bigger than any year in history of the haves and
