Here's your host, Paul. Welcome to 0:00:23.640 --> 0:00:26.239 the show. Everybody. It is Fantasy Football Weekly. I am 0:00:26.280 --> 0:00:30.360 Paul charchy In. My co host today are Scott Fish 0:00:30.440 --> 0:00:33.960 and Brian Johnson. Hello, guys, Hello charge this this is 0:00:33.960 --> 0:00:36.479 an awesome day. It is an awesome unless you're a 0:00:36.920 --> 0:00:38.840 guy who had the first pick in your fantasy draft. 0:00:39.000 --> 0:00:41.120 That that could be true, But no, I was gonna say, 0:00:41.400 --> 0:00:43.400 I am doing exactly what I should be doing on 0:00:43.440 --> 0:00:45.320 a day like this, hanging out with Paul charch In 0:00:45.680 --> 0:00:51.400 and Brian Johnson on my sixteenth wedding Anniverse three. Well, 0:00:51.440 --> 0:00:54.120 I mean I think of us as being something like 0:00:54.720 --> 0:00:59.320 very open marriage between us, the three of us, and 0:00:59.400 --> 0:01:02.200 maybe include and your wife as well. In fairness. When 0:01:02.280 --> 0:01:04.240 we got married, I married my best friend and and 0:01:04.319 --> 0:01:06.200 she married like her fourth best friend. I'm still in 0:01:06.200 --> 0:01:08.759 the top ten on the top ten after sixteen years. 0:01:08.800 --> 0:01:11.039 That's like a Brady like Rod. I'm still a top ten. 0:01:11.200 --> 0:01:15.640 Not bad, not bad. Happy anniversary to the fishes. You 0:01:16.400 --> 0:01:20.360 outkicked your coverage that if I wait, if you have 0:01:20.560 --> 0:01:23.520 an open marriage, does somebody get to sleep with the fishes? 0:01:26.120 --> 0:01:30.160 I just talking in your extremely hypothetical scenario. Yes, that 0:01:30.160 --> 0:01:32.640 that makes sense. Fantastic. We've got plenty to get too. 0:01:32.640 --> 0:01:34.360 Over the course of this show, will break down every 0:01:34.360 --> 0:01:37.160 match of fantasy styles we always do. We will play 0:01:37.160 --> 0:01:40.800 three tough questions. We will answer what to do with 0:01:40.920 --> 0:01:44.000 Cuba Hubbard a little later in this show, and we 0:01:44.040 --> 0:01:47.000 will also give you nine players upon who can you 0:01:47.040 --> 0:01:50.280 can take a chance. Let's roll up our sleeves immediately 0:01:50.360 --> 0:01:55.960 with Jacoby Broussett and the Dolphins offen. Dolphins might be 0:01:56.000 --> 0:01:57.720 the lowest scoring offense of the year. They are right 0:01:57.720 --> 0:02:00.480 now the lowest scoring offense. This may hold this season 0:02:00.760 --> 0:02:03.080 as they take on the Raiders. Yeah, this game, this game, 0:02:03.120 --> 0:02:05.960 I think it's gonna be a really low scaring battle here. 0:02:06.280 --> 0:02:09.440 Joe Kobe Prissett, the starter for the Miami Dolphins. This week, 0:02:09.720 --> 0:02:12.880 the Raiders held Ben and Big Ben and Lamar Jackson 0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:16.160 down to about two sixty five yards in a touch. Uh. 0:02:16.639 --> 0:02:20.959 You think of Brissette is a mobile quarterback? You kind 0:02:20.960 --> 0:02:23.440 of do. He's He's had his chops a little bit. 0:02:23.880 --> 0:02:26.000 But you may or may not be surprised to know 0:02:26.080 --> 0:02:29.840 he only averages fifteen yards rushing per start. He doesn't. 0:02:30.080 --> 0:02:32.239 He doesn't run as much as we might think, and 0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:35.720 he averages two hundred passing yards and one touchdown per start. 0:02:35.800 --> 0:02:37.800 He doesn't get a lot of a lot of stats. 0:02:38.040 --> 0:02:41.280 And when you have that low volume, you can't start Wattle. 0:02:41.320 --> 0:02:44.480 You can't, especially with will Fuller back. You can't start 0:02:44.520 --> 0:02:46.919 Wattle or Fuller or Parker. One of them might get 0:02:46.960 --> 0:02:49.400 you some stats, but you can't trust in any of them. 0:02:49.440 --> 0:02:51.480 I have them on the bench. I've sat on the 0:02:51.480 --> 0:02:53.360 bench as well. If you's couldn't have figured that out, 0:02:54.120 --> 0:02:56.840 I have Gasecki on the bench. The Raiders are actually 0:02:56.840 --> 0:02:59.840 top ten against tight ends, but mostly Gasecki and Derm 0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:03.120 might have been pulled into be used to block the 0:03:03.160 --> 0:03:06.200 line plays been terrible in Miami. Yeah, you can't. You 0:03:06.200 --> 0:03:08.200 can't start Kaseki. I do have a C grade on 0:03:08.280 --> 0:03:11.760 Gaskin though he's getting five plus targets a week. Um, 0:03:12.080 --> 0:03:14.360 you say that like it's a good thing. Yeah, I 0:03:14.400 --> 0:03:16.800 mean his his ten to fifteen touches might be what 0:03:16.880 --> 0:03:18.440 gets you there. It might be the only thing that 0:03:18.520 --> 0:03:21.920 can work in this offense. Brissett's little dump offs to 0:03:22.040 --> 0:03:24.239 him and he had a hundred sixty nine yards total 0:03:24.360 --> 0:03:26.720 yards last year against this writer's team, So I think 0:03:26.720 --> 0:03:28.720 there's a little bit optimism there. So I'm giving him 0:03:28.760 --> 0:03:31.200 a possibly a volume C grade. I think he gets 0:03:31.200 --> 0:03:34.040 some catches, he gets you some points. On the other side, 0:03:34.080 --> 0:03:37.560 Derek Carr, I am giving a B grade to Derek Carr. 0:03:37.840 --> 0:03:43.000 With Drake and Barber, um, you know, being the workhorses 0:03:43.040 --> 0:03:45.720 with uh, you know, and watching what they did last week, 0:03:46.280 --> 0:03:49.360 they were just they were they were terrible last week 0:03:49.400 --> 0:03:53.320 that the their yards per yards per rush were there 0:03:53.400 --> 0:03:57.200 was one territory, two for Barber and one for Drake carry. 0:03:57.320 --> 0:04:01.240 That's it. Yeah, it's It's absolutely ridiculous. Derek Carr has 0:04:01.280 --> 0:04:03.040 been lighting it up. This might be a little better 0:04:03.080 --> 0:04:05.800 of a defense. The Dolphins have some good cornerbacks, so 0:04:05.840 --> 0:04:08.120 I'm only giving car B grade here, But he's gonna 0:04:08.160 --> 0:04:10.240 have to step it up in this one because the 0:04:10.320 --> 0:04:11.960 running game is not going to get it done with 0:04:12.040 --> 0:04:16.360 Jacob's likely out. However, with Rugs and Edwards and Renfro 0:04:16.480 --> 0:04:20.280 I mentioned those cornerbacks, Uh, they're all good, like Xavian 0:04:20.320 --> 0:04:23.200 Howard's good Byron Jones is good. We're talking. All three 0:04:23.200 --> 0:04:26.880 of their cornerbacks are top forty ranked by PFF, Like, uh, 0:04:26.920 --> 0:04:29.320 it's it's good. It's tough matchups for all of them. 0:04:29.360 --> 0:04:32.120 Renfro as the best matchup in the slot against Coleman. 0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:35.760 But I don't like any of them this week as 0:04:35.839 --> 0:04:37.839 like even a C start, I think it all goes 0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:40.840 to Waller. I think that's where Carr can do that. 0:04:40.960 --> 0:04:42.839 He's going to spread it around, but we might see 0:04:42.839 --> 0:04:45.680 another nineteen target Waller game. So I mean he's just 0:04:45.720 --> 0:04:48.600 an obvious A at this point. Yes, yeah, in the 0:04:48.680 --> 0:04:51.640 run game, I have Drake with a C and Barbara 0:04:51.720 --> 0:04:54.599 on the bench. Drake is only getting the C because 0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:57.760 he's got five catches, not targets. Five catches in each game. 0:04:58.200 --> 0:05:01.240 If and that's that's getting me, you know, five catches 0:05:01.279 --> 0:05:04.760 in forty yards just receiving, then he gets that's how 0:05:04.839 --> 0:05:09.039 Granted he got nine yards rushing last week, so I 0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:11.840 was gonna say he gets rushing, but we don't know 0:05:11.920 --> 0:05:13.800 think that's gonna count on that. He's gonna get the C. 0:05:13.960 --> 0:05:16.640 Great for me, but that's it for for this matchup, alright, 0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:18.359 not much, you know, not a lot to like in 0:05:18.360 --> 0:05:20.680 Dolphins Rangers. But we got that game out of the way, yes, 0:05:20.839 --> 0:05:23.000 right off the bat, which is very important. Go away. 0:05:23.440 --> 0:05:27.799 We have a better matchup, I hope with Bengals at Steelers. Brian, 0:05:27.960 --> 0:05:30.640 I don't know. And Bengal is gonna likely be without 0:05:30.640 --> 0:05:33.040 Tee Higgins in this game. There's a lot of likely without, 0:05:33.160 --> 0:05:35.120 Like I printed off my notes a couple of hours 0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:37.919 ago and they're already like marked up, like tons of 0:05:37.960 --> 0:05:39.880 ready in on my these notes right now. But we'll 0:05:39.880 --> 0:05:42.679 start with the Bengal side with players who will play 0:05:43.120 --> 0:05:46.120 uh In Joe Mixing just to see for Mixing though 0:05:46.160 --> 0:05:49.080 this week had a rough outing against the Bears last week, 0:05:49.320 --> 0:05:53.200 probably won't get any better against the Steelers. Are any easier, 0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:56.760 I should say. Pittsburgh has allowed the seventh fewest rushing 0:05:56.839 --> 0:06:00.560 yards and sixth fewest receiving yards to running backs. Mixing 0:06:01.240 --> 0:06:03.640 basically didn't play last year, but he didn't play the 0:06:03.640 --> 0:06:06.160 Steelers in either game last year, but in his six 0:06:06.279 --> 0:06:10.000 career meetings prior, just one total touchdown. And now now 0:06:10.040 --> 0:06:12.400 t J. Watt is questionable for Pittsburgh and that's that's 0:06:12.480 --> 0:06:14.680 that's a huge With a growing injury that that'll be 0:06:14.760 --> 0:06:16.200 huge either way, So you want to keep your eye 0:06:16.200 --> 0:06:18.080 on what when it comes to Joe mixing and the 0:06:18.120 --> 0:06:21.040 passing game, which we'll get to you right now. As 0:06:21.080 --> 0:06:25.440 you mentioned, Te Higgins looks doubtful. He's like a positive 0:06:25.560 --> 0:06:28.760 doubtful though like the most positive a doubt doubtful can 0:06:28.800 --> 0:06:31.680 get apparently on the questionable side of doubt with the 0:06:31.760 --> 0:06:34.920 shoulder injury. But we're just gonna assume he does not play. Uh, 0:06:35.000 --> 0:06:38.560 so he's on the bench, So we'll go to Jamar Chase, 0:06:38.600 --> 0:06:42.159 who I had a B grade on if Higgins played, 0:06:42.440 --> 0:06:44.799 and it certainly doesn't help Jamar Chase that Higgins is sitting. 0:06:45.360 --> 0:06:48.640 Does not give him extra attention for sure, So I'm 0:06:48.640 --> 0:06:51.040 gonna stick with a B for Chase. He's paying off 0:06:51.040 --> 0:06:53.919 big time for those who butt uh the late summer 0:06:54.200 --> 0:06:57.080 like he felt a couple of rounds and after the 0:06:57.160 --> 0:07:00.480 drops in the preseason a touchdown of twenty plus are 0:07:00.560 --> 0:07:03.320 yards in each week for Chase. The Steelers have allowed 0:07:03.360 --> 0:07:06.760 the sixth most yards and third most receptions to wide 0:07:06.800 --> 0:07:10.680 receivers plus a touchdown in each game they played. Henry Ruggs, 0:07:10.720 --> 0:07:13.160 the third just had a hundred plus in a score 0:07:13.240 --> 0:07:16.400 last week, So I like chase his chances of replicating 0:07:16.400 --> 0:07:20.720 those numbers from Rugs. So again, Higgins out, Tyler Boyd 0:07:20.800 --> 0:07:22.520 was gonna get his CEE. I guess I'm gonna bump 0:07:22.520 --> 0:07:26.040 Boyd up to a B. Now Pittsburgh has yielded the 0:07:26.080 --> 0:07:29.520 third most targets to wide receivers and Tyler Boyd generally 0:07:29.560 --> 0:07:32.120 gets a lot of those. From Ben Roethlisber, I'm sorry 0:07:32.120 --> 0:07:37.120 from Joe Burrow, Um, who you know, I gotta talk 0:07:37.160 --> 0:07:40.320 about autent tate now, I was gonna give Tyler Boyd. 0:07:40.840 --> 0:07:42.960 I don't think even when a dart throw autent tae 0:07:42.960 --> 0:07:47.240 though there is a good secondary Joe Hayden's going they're 0:07:47.240 --> 0:07:49.360 gonna get funnel to the past. I feel the Bengals 0:07:49.480 --> 0:07:52.600 aut not a takecom player, but he's a fringe take 0:07:52.640 --> 0:07:55.760 on player, maybe a daily Star super super super desperate. 0:07:56.160 --> 0:07:58.080 There you go, We'll go with that. And then lastly, 0:07:58.120 --> 0:08:01.480 for since Joe Burrow, just to see, um, he did 0:08:01.480 --> 0:08:04.920 play Pittsburgh last year before the season ending knee injury. Sadly, 0:08:04.960 --> 0:08:07.200 te Higgins went off in that game. Who's not playing 0:08:07.200 --> 0:08:10.880 in this game? So uh bur only had two yards 0:08:10.880 --> 0:08:12.640 and one passing touchdown. In that game. I think he 0:08:12.680 --> 0:08:15.040 can get to to forty and two in this one. Uh, 0:08:15.080 --> 0:08:18.440 now with Jamar Chase in the mix, but again Higgins gone. Uh. 0:08:18.560 --> 0:08:20.120 If t J. Watt is a go or no go, 0:08:20.200 --> 0:08:22.360 that's that's this huge for Burrow in this one. But 0:08:22.360 --> 0:08:25.520 I'm gonna stick with the sea. Over to the Steelers side, 0:08:26.000 --> 0:08:28.600 We'll start with Naji Harris, who did not play in 0:08:28.600 --> 0:08:33.680 one of the snaps last week. It's a tough matchup 0:08:33.679 --> 0:08:36.679 for Naji um the Bengals held Dalvin Cook and David 0:08:36.679 --> 0:08:39.720 Montgomery and check on the ground. Harris did see five 0:08:39.760 --> 0:08:42.320 targets last week. That's encouraging. I would expect him to 0:08:42.320 --> 0:08:44.760 top one hundred combo yards on this one with the 0:08:44.800 --> 0:08:47.439 potential for a touchdown, but just a very soft b 0:08:48.040 --> 0:08:55.040 for nausea. That's all the way from that was very intentional. 0:08:55.080 --> 0:08:58.080 Now Deonde Johnson was going to get an A, but 0:08:58.120 --> 0:09:01.360 now he's been ruled out. He is out. So James 0:09:01.400 --> 0:09:06.080 Washington becomes a really sneaky pickup inlay and dfs we 0:09:06.360 --> 0:09:10.000 we will get to him in Trey Wayne's uh, since 0:09:10.040 --> 0:09:12.959 his top corner is doubtful, so that that's a bump 0:09:13.000 --> 0:09:16.520 for all remaining wide receivers will start with Juju Smith Schuster, 0:09:16.640 --> 0:09:18.720 your your boy Charts has scored in three or four 0:09:19.240 --> 0:09:22.280 career home games against the Bengals, including last year's contest. 0:09:22.280 --> 0:09:24.679 So I'm gonna give him a B with no Deonte 0:09:24.800 --> 0:09:26.959 Johnson and uh, he was going to be a C, 0:09:27.240 --> 0:09:30.599 as was Chase Claypool. Uh, I'm gonna give Claypool to 0:09:30.720 --> 0:09:33.199 be here fifty plus yards in both games against the 0:09:33.200 --> 0:09:37.160 Bengals last year. He scored twice in one of those games. Um, 0:09:37.320 --> 0:09:41.160 So with no Deonte Johnson, Claypool and Smith Shoester should 0:09:41.160 --> 0:09:43.720 see a significant bumping targets a B for both of 0:09:43.760 --> 0:09:46.920 them and James Washington another kind of bonus. Take home 0:09:46.960 --> 0:09:50.319 wide receiver here with a C grade no Deonta Clify. 0:09:50.440 --> 0:09:52.640 For those that might not listen to the show regularly, 0:09:52.720 --> 0:09:55.440 take com is recalled take a chance on Me. That 0:09:55.559 --> 0:09:58.920 is our our shortened version. Everyone knows that the most 0:09:58.960 --> 0:10:02.679 popular acronym in fantasy football, but they'll they'll learn it 0:10:02.720 --> 0:10:05.920 in the next Well the second The second most popular 0:10:06.000 --> 0:10:11.600 acronym and fantasy football is blow and we'll get well, yeah, 0:10:11.640 --> 0:10:14.240 we'll get blowed later and quickly. The tight ends not 0:10:14.480 --> 0:10:17.440 startable yet for me for Pittsburgh. Even though rookie Pat 0:10:17.520 --> 0:10:20.040 Friar Muth has appeared to have jumped he run on 0:10:20.080 --> 0:10:23.280 the depth chart. Fiarmuth is the only true rookie tight 0:10:23.400 --> 0:10:27.040 end we will discuss on the day show. And lastly, 0:10:27.440 --> 0:10:31.640 Ben Roethlisberger. He'll never get higher than to see ever 0:10:32.160 --> 0:10:34.560 right for the remainder of this season. I mean, based 0:10:34.600 --> 0:10:38.040 what we've seen so far. No, he he looks cooked 0:10:38.400 --> 0:10:40.920 with no Deonte Johnson, he's got the peck injury. I 0:10:41.040 --> 0:10:42.760 kind of like the wide receiver still a little bit. 0:10:42.760 --> 0:10:46.280 But I got Ben on the bench. No, I don't 0:10:46.280 --> 0:10:49.720 blame you. They're far better cup, far better guys to play. 0:10:50.120 --> 0:10:52.199 Chargers take on the Chiefs, and I'm gonna start with 0:10:52.240 --> 0:10:54.559 the Chargers side by mentioning the Chiefs defense is in 0:10:54.640 --> 0:10:57.920 bad shape. Frank Clark is out for this game and 0:10:57.960 --> 0:10:59.360 that will help to both the running game and the 0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:03.240 passing game. Chris Jones is questionable chair various Award one 0:11:03.240 --> 0:11:06.600 of their starting corners also questionable for this game. Chargers 0:11:06.640 --> 0:11:09.400 are going to win this game and Patrick Mahomes is 0:11:09.400 --> 0:11:12.480 gonna be under five hundred in a couple of days. 0:11:12.840 --> 0:11:16.199 That's coming up. Huh, let's start with the running game 0:11:16.200 --> 0:11:19.640 in Austin Ekeler. Chiefs are allowing one hundred thirty rushing yards. 0:11:19.720 --> 0:11:22.720 That's the third most and two rushing scores the most 0:11:23.080 --> 0:11:25.920 per game to opposing running backs, which is part of 0:11:25.920 --> 0:11:28.120 the A grade for Eckler. He caught all nine of 0:11:28.160 --> 0:11:30.280 his receptions last week. Remember after week one when he 0:11:30.280 --> 0:11:32.360 had no receptions and we were all worried that he 0:11:32.400 --> 0:11:36.040 gets nine the next week next week? Right, zero, I'd 0:11:36.080 --> 0:11:40.960 like it. Zero. Yeah. The Chiefs ranked thirty so far 0:11:41.120 --> 0:11:44.040 in running back receiving yards allowed. Sorry, that was last year, 0:11:44.120 --> 0:11:46.520 thirtieth last year allowed. They appeared to be better through 0:11:46.520 --> 0:11:48.959 that through a couple of games this year, but still 0:11:49.080 --> 0:11:51.240 a plus matchup for Eckler on the ground and through 0:11:51.280 --> 0:11:58.040 the air. Love Justin air Bear, who has played better 0:11:58.080 --> 0:12:00.440 than his box scores would suggest. In Week one he 0:12:00.440 --> 0:12:02.960 faced a very good Washington defense, still put up threety 0:12:03.000 --> 0:12:05.280 seven and in week two he had a couple of 0:12:05.320 --> 0:12:08.320 big play touchdowns that got reversed and he still posted 0:12:08.360 --> 0:12:11.000 three thirty eight yards and one was on a taunting 0:12:11.080 --> 0:12:14.920 call to right, one of the many awful taunting calls. 0:12:14.960 --> 0:12:21.320 It feels like Justin he is sitting on an explosive game, 0:12:21.440 --> 0:12:23.520 and this could be at the chief secondary has only 0:12:23.520 --> 0:12:26.480 been lightly tested with the passing of Baker Mayfield and 0:12:26.559 --> 0:12:29.560 Lamar Jackson, and they're still giving up an eye popping 0:12:29.600 --> 0:12:33.400 completion rate of seventy two, the fifth worst in the league. 0:12:33.640 --> 0:12:36.720 And here comes Air Bear with his seventy percent completion rate. 0:12:37.360 --> 0:12:41.720 This is a plus plus matchup for a Bear A grade. 0:12:42.040 --> 0:12:43.920 Keenan Allen gets an A grade. Back to back one 0:12:44.040 --> 0:12:47.599 hundred yard games the first time since twenties seventeen. Minnesota 0:12:47.679 --> 0:12:50.720 cast off Mike Hughes awaits him in the slot. Hughes 0:12:50.720 --> 0:12:53.320 gives up four inches and twenty pounds. That is a 0:12:53.400 --> 0:12:58.520 sizeable mismatch in Alan's favor. Also, Mike Hughes is not good. 0:12:59.559 --> 0:13:02.959 Mike Williams gets a B grade, which we will upgrade 0:13:03.000 --> 0:13:05.880 to an A if char Various Ward does not play 0:13:05.920 --> 0:13:08.800 back to back games with double digit targets. For Mike 0:13:08.840 --> 0:13:12.600 Williams something that had never happened in his entire career before, 0:13:13.320 --> 0:13:15.720 and that kind of usage makes him a reliable starter 0:13:15.840 --> 0:13:19.200 like never before. I read how his A dot has 0:13:19.200 --> 0:13:23.880 basically been cut in half, but it's been absolutely more productive. 0:13:23.920 --> 0:13:26.640 He's got a good coachingverage. The target for those who 0:13:26.640 --> 0:13:29.080 do that is correct, Thank you very much. Well, I 0:13:29.080 --> 0:13:33.360 do think cornerback Legarius Sneed is good. Um, he can 0:13:33.400 --> 0:13:35.120 be avoided pretty easy by lining up on the other 0:13:35.120 --> 0:13:36.800 side of the field. And as I mentioned, our various 0:13:36.800 --> 0:13:39.800 word may not play so b and possibly in a 0:13:39.880 --> 0:13:43.120 grade for Mike Williams. Jared Cook is a sneaky tight 0:13:43.200 --> 0:13:45.280 end sleeper you may be able to pick up. The 0:13:45.360 --> 0:13:48.400 Chiefs have allowed ninety three yards per game to opposing 0:13:48.440 --> 0:13:50.960 tight ends, that is the second most in the league. 0:13:51.360 --> 0:13:53.680 Cook has gotten almost all of the tight end targets. 0:13:53.840 --> 0:13:57.120 He notched four red zone receptions in the two games, 0:13:57.120 --> 0:14:01.520 which could be a good sign for a possible touchdown here. Next, 0:14:01.600 --> 0:14:04.120 let's go over to the Kansas City side Mahomes and 0:14:04.200 --> 0:14:06.440 Hill and Kelsey. I'll get a grades, but I do 0:14:06.520 --> 0:14:09.120 need to point out some danger points for you. Over 0:14:09.160 --> 0:14:13.240 the past two years, Mahomes is averaged a mundane two 0:14:13.400 --> 0:14:18.240 hundred nineteen yards and one point three touchdown passes against 0:14:18.240 --> 0:14:24.240 the Chargers. That is Brisset level production. That's so that's weird. 0:14:24.360 --> 0:14:27.200 And with the return of elite safety Derwin James and 0:14:27.280 --> 0:14:31.000 promising rookie cornerback is Sante Samueldi. The Chargers are not 0:14:31.120 --> 0:14:34.360 a lay up at this point. Los Angeles has allowed 0:14:34.400 --> 0:14:37.800 the second fewest Fantasy points to quarterbacks, including goose egging 0:14:37.960 --> 0:14:41.880 Dak Prescott last week. It looks like Joey Bosa will 0:14:41.920 --> 0:14:44.440 not play though, after missing the entire week of practice. 0:14:44.520 --> 0:14:47.800 That does help Mahomes but again still have A grades 0:14:47.800 --> 0:14:51.240 and Mahomes, Hill and Kelsey, but not this usual the 0:14:51.320 --> 0:14:54.400 usual confidence we've had in the past. Then we turned 0:14:54.400 --> 0:14:59.160 our attention to Clyde Edwards, a layer to complete duds 0:14:59.200 --> 0:15:02.040 so far and needs to perform here against the Chargers 0:15:02.040 --> 0:15:05.200 team allowing a league worse rushing yards per game on 0:15:05.320 --> 0:15:09.760 five and a half yards per carry. This is a 0:15:09.800 --> 0:15:13.200 critical juncture for Clyde Edwards a Laire. We're gonna talk 0:15:13.200 --> 0:15:14.840 more about him a little later in the show. He 0:15:14.840 --> 0:15:18.840 gets a C grade here. He he is still quasi 0:15:19.040 --> 0:15:22.480 active in the receiving game. I don't know, not as 0:15:22.520 --> 0:15:24.560 much as he should be. So maybe he's going to 0:15:24.640 --> 0:15:28.600 help out a little bit in that particular area. But again, 0:15:28.680 --> 0:15:31.560 deep dive coming up later in the show on Clyde 0:15:31.680 --> 0:15:35.800 Edwards a Laire. We've been kind of ragged on Jacoby 0:15:35.920 --> 0:15:38.840 uh in this segment, but he did prest the bar 0:15:38.960 --> 0:15:44.360 pretty low boy. Thanks Dad. When we come back, nine 0:15:44.360 --> 0:15:46.640 players upon whom you can take a chance. As a 0:15:46.680 --> 0:15:49.320 segment we call take a chance on Me, and we 0:15:49.360 --> 0:15:52.520 continue to create brand new Guillotine leagues at Guillotine leagues 0:15:52.560 --> 0:15:54.240 dot com.

A 0:16:27.120 --> 0:16:33.480 segment we call take a chance on Me. It's so 0:16:33.600 --> 0:16:36.360 great to have a great song to go take a 0:16:36.440 --> 0:16:38.840 chance on me. Now. I ragged on this song in 0:16:38.920 --> 0:16:42.520 its debut at late last year's but it was it 0:16:42.600 --> 0:16:44.960 was that it was better than whatever we were rolling 0:16:44.960 --> 0:16:47.120 out before that. But it's growing on me every time 0:16:47.520 --> 0:16:50.800 great tune. I apologize for ragging on I think as 0:16:50.800 --> 0:16:52.680 well you should. This is nine players not normally and 0:16:52.680 --> 0:16:54.920 you're starting line up. Many of these guys are available 0:16:54.920 --> 0:16:57.840 on the waiver wire. Got great matchups this week. We'll 0:16:57.840 --> 0:16:59.720 tell you who they are, beginning at the quarterback position 0:16:59.760 --> 0:17:03.960 and Scott Fish. First off, I think we all missed 0:17:03.960 --> 0:17:06.200 the chipmunks. We can all admit that we missed the 0:17:06.280 --> 0:17:08.960 Chipmunks take a chance on me song. It's true. Yes, 0:17:09.800 --> 0:17:12.720 I never thought I never thought I would say it, 0:17:12.760 --> 0:17:15.840 But yes, that's that's the one that's still not miss Okay, 0:17:15.880 --> 0:17:19.720 I have Daniel Jones. The Falcons are the worst ranked 0:17:20.119 --> 0:17:23.840 team against quarterbacks. They've allowed eight passing touchdowns, and the 0:17:23.880 --> 0:17:27.000 Giants are designing runs for Jones, which is actually going 0:17:27.040 --> 0:17:28.720 to give him a nice floor. He has a two 0:17:29.359 --> 0:17:32.000 plus total yards and multiple scores in both games. And 0:17:32.040 --> 0:17:34.159 as I said in week one, if you remember, you 0:17:34.200 --> 0:17:36.800 have to keep in mind that for Atlanta, the front 0:17:36.880 --> 0:17:40.920 eleven on that defense is not very good. That is true, 0:17:41.080 --> 0:17:45.080 the front eleven. Yes, yes, Brian, you're take a chance 0:17:45.119 --> 0:17:48.480 to the quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo at home against the Packers. 0:17:48.560 --> 0:17:51.160 How should my guy from the past two weeks? Oh yeah, 0:17:52.760 --> 0:17:55.679 started like is he always gonna be taking take ace? 0:17:56.119 --> 0:17:58.520 Might bake Trey Lance is gonna have to wait another week. 0:17:58.800 --> 0:18:01.720 Jameis Winston went off against Green Bay for five touchdowns 0:18:01.720 --> 0:18:04.280 in week one. Jared Goff at a decent showing in 0:18:04.359 --> 0:18:07.439 Lambeau last week with nearly two fifty passing yards and 0:18:07.440 --> 0:18:11.239 two touchdowns. So Jimmy g has multi touchdown potential with 0:18:11.320 --> 0:18:14.960 his primary receiving options healthy like George Kittle and Diebo 0:18:15.000 --> 0:18:17.560 Samuel of course, and and virtually no running backs on 0:18:17.600 --> 0:18:19.200 the team. We'll talk about that a little later in 0:18:19.240 --> 0:18:21.760 the show. And Jameis Winston also ran for thirty seven 0:18:21.800 --> 0:18:24.840 yards and Gop had forty six against Green Bay and 0:18:24.960 --> 0:18:27.199 Jimmy g just as mobile as those guys, if not 0:18:27.280 --> 0:18:29.600 more so. I'm like in Garoppolo sitting on a big game. 0:18:29.640 --> 0:18:31.600 I think it could be just find Kevin King is 0:18:31.640 --> 0:18:33.680 all you have to do at the Packers fans pulling 0:18:33.680 --> 0:18:36.840 their hair out over his play. Jared goff Is might 0:18:36.880 --> 0:18:39.440 take a chance on me quarterback you just alluded to him, 0:18:39.640 --> 0:18:44.119 and unlikely top ten fantasy quarterback right now thanks to 0:18:44.160 --> 0:18:48.240 a unique recipe that remains in play for the Lions 0:18:48.600 --> 0:18:53.200 and awful defense creating ongoing negative game scripts. His offensive 0:18:53.240 --> 0:18:55.440 line is pretty good, so he's got time to scan 0:18:55.520 --> 0:18:58.560 the field, and even with shaky receivers, he's getting a 0:18:58.560 --> 0:19:00.800 lot of help from his tight ends in his running backs. 0:19:01.040 --> 0:19:03.800 And here comes a Baltimore defense a shell of its 0:19:03.840 --> 0:19:08.000 former self, allowing the most passing yards in the NFL, 0:19:08.160 --> 0:19:12.200 and on Friday they had to rule out four defensive 0:19:12.200 --> 0:19:15.639 starters on the COVID list. This is a very plus 0:19:15.680 --> 0:19:19.400 matchup for Jared Goff potentially sitting on a big game. 0:19:19.440 --> 0:19:23.080 They're probably calling ed read write about now, want to 0:19:23.800 --> 0:19:25.560 let's go to the running back position. You're take a 0:19:25.640 --> 0:19:29.520 chance on me player. I am going with score Darryl 0:19:29.600 --> 0:19:33.760 Patterson Mark McNeil from from Twitter giving me that nickname 0:19:33.840 --> 0:19:37.000 score Darryl Patterson, Like, uh, he has a role in 0:19:37.000 --> 0:19:39.560 this offense. Was this last week? But I know right 0:19:39.960 --> 0:19:42.600 they're designing a lot of plays for him. He's only 0:19:42.640 --> 0:19:43.960 in a game about a third of the time, and 0:19:43.960 --> 0:19:46.639 he's touching the ball on a good high percentage. Of 0:19:46.680 --> 0:19:50.639 those giants they match up against. The Falcons are allowing 0:19:50.720 --> 0:19:53.960 nearly five point four yards per carrying over nine yards 0:19:54.040 --> 0:19:59.960 per reception to to running backs. Also, by the way, 0:20:00.160 --> 0:20:04.000 Gauge and Frank Darby r out. So basically, it's it's Pits, 0:20:04.160 --> 0:20:07.640 it's Redley, it's Patterson, and like all the Alata days, 0:20:07.640 --> 0:20:11.600 Achias like that's it on that. Yeah, I didn't think 0:20:11.640 --> 0:20:13.800 you pull that off. You're taking a chance of me 0:20:13.920 --> 0:20:18.480 running back Bryant. I have the decomposing zombie corps of 0:20:18.560 --> 0:20:22.640 James Conner at Jacksonville. Connor has not looked good this year, 0:20:22.640 --> 0:20:25.520 but the Jaguars have looked worse than James Connor has 0:20:25.920 --> 0:20:28.240 in a vacuum. Chase Edmonds is a guy you want 0:20:28.280 --> 0:20:31.640 for Arizona, but Connor is still going to factor, uh, 0:20:31.680 --> 0:20:34.800 probably heavily against the Jaguars team that allowed every Texan 0:20:34.880 --> 0:20:39.520 running back to score in Week one outside of Rex Burkhead, 0:20:39.600 --> 0:20:43.080 but all three other backs scored and last week uh, 0:20:43.119 --> 0:20:46.040 they surrendered one plus combo yards to Denver backs. And 0:20:46.119 --> 0:20:50.000 Jacksonville has also yielded the second most red zone and 0:20:50.200 --> 0:20:52.800 gold to go touches to running backs so far this year. 0:20:52.880 --> 0:20:54.679 So I think Connor sneaks into the end zone in 0:20:54.720 --> 0:20:57.840 this one. Could be I've got Latavius Murray against Detroit. 0:20:57.960 --> 0:21:01.520 Any warm body viable play against Detroit, And while I 0:21:01.600 --> 0:21:04.960 prefer Tyson Williams by a lot, but just for the 0:21:04.960 --> 0:21:06.920 sake of going farther down the depth chart, let's talk 0:21:06.960 --> 0:21:10.080 about Murray. He'll face a Lions team surrounding one fifty 0:21:10.080 --> 0:21:12.639 total yards per game to opposing backs that's ninth most 0:21:12.920 --> 0:21:16.200 and a staggering three running back touchdowns per game. The 0:21:16.280 --> 0:21:18.760 Lions are giving up by average. Uh, So you know 0:21:18.800 --> 0:21:20.800 if there's three to be had, even if Williams gets 0:21:20.840 --> 0:21:23.400 one or two of them, Maury could get the third. 0:21:23.920 --> 0:21:27.600 Murray had eighty three total yards and two scores when 0:21:27.720 --> 0:21:30.240 he played against Detroit last year as a member of 0:21:30.240 --> 0:21:33.919 the Saints. Let's go to the receivers, Scott, who's your 0:21:33.960 --> 0:21:36.760 take a chance on me? White out? My take a 0:21:36.880 --> 0:21:41.680 chance on me? Wide receiver is going to be Jillen reagor. Uh. 0:21:41.720 --> 0:21:44.479 He's going up against Dallas Cowboys. Dallas Cowboys giving a 0:21:44.480 --> 0:21:47.560
