1
00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:07,360
Speaker 1: You want experience during your football season, well, buckle.

2
00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:08,360
Speaker 2: Up, sweet cheeks.

3
00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:12,959
Speaker 1: We've got all the experience in the world. This is

4
00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:17,040
Speaker 1: I want your flex with Dan Byer and Mike Harmon.

5
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:20,239
Speaker 1: Mike and Dan break down everything you need to set

6
00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:23,279
Speaker 1: your lineups, from position rankings.

7
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 2: To starts and sins.

8
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:27,760
Speaker 1: The guys help you make those hard decisions. And now

9
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 1: let's get your flex ond Here's Dan Byer and Mike Harmon.

10
00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 3: It's week two of the NFL season. Get Mike at

11
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:39,760
Speaker 3: swollen Dom. You can find me at Dan Byer on

12
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,959
Speaker 3: Fox our executive producer as Ryan Berschinger, you can hit

13
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 3: him up at Ryan Berschinger and Fellas. Let's just start

14
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 3: with what we saw on Thursday night, Vikings and Eagles.

15
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 3: Mike Quick thirty second takeaway is, hey, Kirk Cousins have

16
00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 3: another day. I don't care that they're zero and two.

17
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:03,400
Speaker 3: There seems to be something with Minnesota not running the football.

18
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 3: The addition of Jordan Addison no longer having Adam Thielen

19
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 3: there has been a bit of a boost to Minnesota,

20
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:12,839
Speaker 3: and if they keep continuing to turn the ball over,

21
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 3: it means Kirk Cousin's gonna have to continue to throw

22
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:19,119
Speaker 3: the football. So even at a Vikings loss, I guess

23
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 3: I come into today bullish and Kirk Cousins.

24
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I can't run the football. Anybody that has shares

25
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:28,119
Speaker 2: of Madison right now you're scared. You're very scared. He's

26
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 2: going to be unplayable until he proves otherwise. They just

27
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 2: abandoned it all together and then winging the ball around downfield.

28
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 2: You actually have a guy that can get downfield Addison

29
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 2: instead of feeling becoming that set up, post up kind

30
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 2: of player. Even Osborne had his opportunities. He dropped a couple,

31
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 2: but eventually got his touchdown justin Jefferson. I know fans

32
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 2: are salty because he gave away or at least a

33
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 2: completion down to the one. How the rest of that

34
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 2: possession goes at the end of the half, I don't know.

35
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 2: The targets, the catches, the receptions all going to be

36
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 2: there week after week for you. Exciting. I'm more concerned

37
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 2: on the other side. For the passing game of Philadelphia,

38
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 2: we talked about it a lot, and the preview episodes

39
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 2: fellas about the new OC with Stike and Gone and

40
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 2: whether that could work right away. You had a couple

41
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 2: of busted plays DeVante Smith one on one, but otherwise

42
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 2: it became a all right, let's just run the ball

43
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 2: down their throats, which I don't know that anybody would

44
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,360
Speaker 2: have seen coming in terms of how the Minnesota defense

45
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 2: had been so SIV like against opposing passing games.

46
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, one thing I noticed and Dan we talked about

47
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 4: it before the game yesterday is in one of my

48
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 4: guillotine leagues, I started to overthink this idea of playing

49
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 4: Kirk Cousins last night, because, for one, I was biting

50
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 4: at the old narrative of Kirk Cousins in a primetime game,

51
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 4: but I was also looking at I had Baker Mayfield

52
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 4: on my bench, and after watching what Jordan Loved did

53
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 4: to the Bears last week, I'm thinking there could be

54
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 4: solid production here. But per your advice, I stuck with

55
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 4: what was tried and true.

56
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:06,800
Speaker 3: You would have made the decision yourself, right.

57
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:08,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, but.

58
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 4: We talked through it and you agreed that it wasn't

59
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 4: crazy for me to think about starting Baker Mayfield. But

60
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 4: especially in the Guillotine league, you want to play things safe.

61
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 4: Just go with the more secure bet of Kirk Cousins.

62
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,920
Speaker 4: And something that I did forget when I was breaking

63
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 4: down this idea. Was also that Mac Jones threw against

64
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,399
Speaker 4: the Eagles like crazy the week before, So I think

65
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:35,680
Speaker 4: what last night also did prove is that starting quarterbacks

66
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 4: against the Eagles is suddenly a very prosperous idea something.

67
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 3: To watch for with Dak Prescott and Daniel Jones in

68
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 3: that division. I'll just say this and make the final

69
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 3: word on this game. Huge net for DeAndre Swift on Thursday.

70
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 3: I think it's his best game of the season. I

71
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 3: just if Kenneth Gainwell comes back, I don't think Rashad

72
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 3: Penny's going to have much value. But that trio of Gainwell,

73
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 3: Scott and Swift, I know it was a huge night,

74
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 3: but I just don't see that sort of volume coming again.

75
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 3: Just for DeAndre Swift, I think he maxed out if

76
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 3: there was a time to sell high, because heck, you

77
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 3: could buy low after week one. But I think if

78
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 3: you wanted to sell high on DeAndre Swift, I say

79
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 3: that now was the opportunity to do so. Just don't

80
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 3: see a repeat performance. All right, there's our recap of

81
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,840
Speaker 3: Vikings Eagles. Let's get to Harmon's rankings. That's why you're

82
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 3: really game here. Your top five players at the quarterback,

83
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,280
Speaker 3: running back, of wide receiver positions. Mike, let's start out

84
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,840
Speaker 3: with a signal callers, who are your top five quarterbacks

85
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 3: for Week two of the NFL season.

86
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 2: I always wonder if I should just cavey out caveat

87
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 2: like I used to do columns. It's like, I'm not

88
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 2: talking about the obvious three or four guys, but for

89
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 2: the purposes of top five deals, we need to Mahomes

90
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,560
Speaker 2: at Jacksonville. I'm looking for a scoring fest in this one.

91
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 2: I know Chris Jones is back and he's saying that

92
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 2: Travis Kelsey has them all hooked up for the next

93
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 2: leg of the Taylor Swift Tour. I don't know if

94
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 2: that's true or not, but it makes for fun fodder

95
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 2: for me. So victory all along. Remember, Mahomes still had

96
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 2: opportunities as long as cadari As Tony remembers his stick

97
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 2: him this time around, Josh Allen against the Las Vegas

98
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 2: Raiders just an overall alan stat three or more turnovers

99
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:14,480
Speaker 2: in a game. The next time he's come out, he's

100
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:17,160
Speaker 2: won five straight games with a passer rating over one hundred.

101
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 2: So looking for him to get right here and whatever

102
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 2: ills and Stefan Diggs is gonna play angry Matt at reporters,

103
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 2: and then you got it's like Deon Sander. Everybody's just

104
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 2: poking bears. Man, what are we doing anymore? Justin Herbert

105
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 2: going up against Tennessee. I don't know that they'll ever

106
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 2: play any defense. So let's just start anybody that's in

107
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,920
Speaker 2: a Chargers uniform time and time again. Justin Herbert making

108
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 2: it happen on the road here against Tennessee. Trevor Lawrence

109
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 2: on the other side of that game against Kansas City. Yeah,

110
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 2: the Ridley etn and company are for real. And then

111
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:51,720
Speaker 2: we got one guy we'll talk about a little bit

112
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,279
Speaker 2: later about opportunities for him. And then finally Dan. I

113
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 2: hate to do it, but Jared Goff over two fifty

114
00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 2: with the two scores in week one. Looking for him

115
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:05,280
Speaker 2: him to double up and have continued success downfield if

116
00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 2: nothing else. The week one they kind of show a

117
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 2: little bit of restraint in the passing game at times.

118
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 2: Reynolds was your big target. I think we see more

119
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 2: of the other band Merriman this week.

120
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 3: Don't worry about it, Mike. Wait you here, Mike, give

121
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 3: me one reason to start a bench a guy. We

122
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 3: have more on that game. I will say I do

123
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 3: also expect a Josh Allen bounce back. Like you, I

124
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 3: think that the Jets have given him problems over the

125
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 3: last couple of years. I don't think that this was

126
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:36,360
Speaker 3: a carryover now. If he has a problem with the Raiders,

127
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:40,280
Speaker 3: it's a bigger story just the Jets. D though they

128
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,160
Speaker 3: stymied him last year in the game in New York,

129
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 3: they did it in Week one. If he doesn't break

130
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 3: out against the Raiders, then we have problems. But I

131
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 3: think that he does those years.

132
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,520
Speaker 2: Just quickly go to Dan with Josh Allen in Week one.

133
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 2: A couple of those interceptions like we're almost like punts

134
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 2: right to whitehead straight down the middle of the field.

135
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 2: You old like fifty yards. It was like he was

136
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 2: in the street yelling punt check like you did when

137
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:08,040
Speaker 2: you were playing as a yes, as opposed to hey,

138
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 2: he tried to fit it in somewhere. It was like,

139
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 2: all right, go make a play or don't just make

140
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 2: a tackle if the guy catches the ball.

141
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 3: I was shocked at times to see two Jets defenders

142
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 3: when he would yeah, he would chuck it down because

143
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 3: you don't see forty yards downfield when he's throwing the ball,

144
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 3: So you're wondering, man, is someone just wide open because

145
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,440
Speaker 3: he scrambled and I'm like, wait, what is he seeing?

146
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 2: Like even the.

147
00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 3: Ref looks like a Jets defender, like like there'd be

148
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 3: three guys down there.

149
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 2: What are you doing?

150
00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 3: But I do think he bounces back against the Raiders

151
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 3: if you listen to an earlier episode this week. I

152
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 3: like the Bills in survivor pools, so the Bills would

153
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:48,040
Speaker 3: be my pick this week. Also because I don't think

154
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 3: you can trust Buffalo, by the way, in other matchups.

155
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:52,280
Speaker 3: That's why I think, like in a week where you

156
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 3: think they're for surely going to get a win, I

157
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 3: would say, not so fast, my friend. But this week

158
00:07:57,640 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 3: I do think that they get the victory, So use

159
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 3: the Bills and then you have to worry about him

160
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 3: the rest of the year. All right, Let's get to

161
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 3: the running backs. Your top five tailbacks for Week two

162
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 3: of the NFL season.

163
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:12,120
Speaker 2: Rebound Giants as well, perfect spot on the road at Arizona,

164
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 2: Saquon Barkley, a healthy workload. They're supposed to be tanking, right,

165
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 2: and the Giants have to be better than Washington, don't

166
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,760
Speaker 2: they don't they. I'm trying to talk myself because I'm

167
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 2: still I tried to ask Jay Glazer on our show,

168
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 2: Smith and I go, what the hell happened with the

169
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 2: Giants Steelers? And there was an uncharacteristic pause from j

170
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,080
Speaker 2: and He's like, it's a long season. I can't do

171
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,600
Speaker 2: it after week one. I'm like, yeah, let me do

172
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 2: that for you. Derek Henry going against the Chargers because Dan, Brian, you,

173
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 2: the you two, Me whoever is running with great success

174
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:51,320
Speaker 2: against this squad. Once again, steady dose of Derrick Henry.

175
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:55,199
Speaker 2: They don't defend. Brandon Staley was hired to coach defense.

176
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 2: Christian McCaffrey has owned the Rams and has career over

177
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,959
Speaker 2: five hundred total yards, four touchdowns in three games played.

178
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 2: Opportunity knocks, and I think he's cashing in b John Robinson.

179
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 2: The love fest continues. I'm all starry eyed, even though

180
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:10,800
Speaker 2: I love me some Tyler all year, and I think

181
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,680
Speaker 2: he still leaches into that workload in a big way.

182
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,199
Speaker 2: But going up against the Green Bay Front, I think

183
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 2: we see him a little more in the passing game,

184
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 2: and then he's off to the races and finally Hayward's

185
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:25,440
Speaker 2: out for a while with the groin injury. We always

186
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 2: have to commemorate guys that go down with the groin injury.

187
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,679
Speaker 2: Here on I watch you flex Nick Chubb going U

188
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 2: against Pittsburgh, opportunity for Cleveland to start two and oh, guys,

189
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,920
Speaker 2: can you fathom that? I think we were all like, well,

190
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 2: you were a zygote Bursch. I think Dan and I

191
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 2: were both like ten years old running around our backyards

192
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 2: when that last happened.

193
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 3: Crazy crazy the Browns and their white uniforms that they're

194
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 3: gonna be wearing. Yeah, maybe that's why they're just not

195
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 3: going to look like the Cleveland Browns.

196
00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't. I don't know what that's like. I don't.

197
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,720
Speaker 4: I don't know what a good Browns team is other

198
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 4: than like the Derek Anderson year. Outside of that.

199
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:13,680
Speaker 3: Singular Yeah, and I took Braylen Edwards in the first

200
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 3: run of our draft the next year. It pained me,

201
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,560
Speaker 3: especially him coming from Michigan, but I thought, hey, great value.

202
00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 3: What after he had like seventeen touchdowns of the year prior.

203
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:27,240
Speaker 3: Oh man, what a pain. I will say this on

204
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:32,400
Speaker 3: your rankings. The Dereck Henry situation I agree with because

205
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 3: Mike Rabel even said after their game against the Saints

206
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 3: that Henry snapcount would be an outlier. He only played

207
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 3: thirty snaps, got fifteen carries in that game against the Saints,

208
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 3: but only played thirty snaps in that game. That's likely

209
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 3: to change and likely to change this week against the Chargers.

210
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,440
Speaker 3: Can't go downh and two to start this.

211
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:57,000
Speaker 2: Wow, five field goals in week one, so get those

212
00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 2: hopefully a lot of ice and stretching. Sure, let me

213
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,200
Speaker 2: let me just mention that because you bring up Vrabel

214
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 2: and comments after week one? Have you ever heard players

215
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:11,960
Speaker 2: and coaches just so open about their dissatisfaction and anger

216
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:16,360
Speaker 2: at certain people and situations. Austin Eckler calling out effort

217
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:20,319
Speaker 2: and coaches, and some radio work he did this week,

218
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 2: Vrabel calling out Tannehill, justin Fields talking about the conservative

219
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 2: play calling in Chicago. DJ Moore two targets just keep

220
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,880
Speaker 2: going down the line. I was like, Wow, people are

221
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 2: just teeing off left and right. What the hell's in

222
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:35,200
Speaker 2: the water?

223
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:40,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, considering it's a long, long season, man, making it

224
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 3: even longer for some of these guys. Yeah, I don't know,

225
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 3: Maybe it's maybe it's the doldrums of camp I'm not sure,

226
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 3: or maybe it's just today's kids. Oh it is, yeah,

227
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 3: today's kids. Ken's these days you want here Lindy and

228
00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 3: Fonte doing this to his players.

229
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,320
Speaker 2: There you go, look them up kids on the Wikipedia.

230
00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,600
Speaker 3: All right, let's get to the let's get to the

231
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:15,840
Speaker 3: wide receivers. Mike stop. Five wide receivers heading into weak deuce.

232
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,719
Speaker 2: All right, Sefon Diggs against Las Vegas. I'm gonna do

233
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 2: my double up stack play here that he gets fed

234
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 2: angry this week. Had a couple of opportunities week one,

235
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 2: but looking for a bigger workload, bigger opportunity. Calvin Ridley

236
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 2: going up against Kensas City. I think it's for real, guys,

237
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:40,559
Speaker 2: the comeback after the year away. And we can get

238
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:43,320
Speaker 2: into all the debates of how long you should be

239
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 2: suspended for gambling whenever, it doesn't matter. He's in a

240
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 2: Jaguars uniform. You talk about the ultimate by low opportunity

241
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 2: for a squad surprise. It wasn't the Eagles, aren't we no? Anyway?

242
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 2: Number three Tyreek Hill going against New England. They may

243
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,800
Speaker 2: double team, and they may triple team. He's still gonna

244
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 2: find the ball somehow out of motion at some point

245
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 2: I want to get to the great review. We're going

246
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 2: to talk about the offensive lineman and what they're doing

247
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 2: in terms of getting that extra half step. Is Tyreek

248
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 2: Hill starting to do the Canadian Football League running towards

249
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 2: the line of scrimmage kind of thing that gives him

250
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,760
Speaker 2: that extra half step? I don't know. Bill Belichick will

251
00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 2: scheme it up all he wants. He'll still get a feast.

252
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 2: Chris Alave going up against Carolina, I'm not a Derek

253
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 2: Carr guy. I'm just not. But I'm not playing meaningful

254
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:27,960
Speaker 2: games in Week sixteen or seventeen right now, so I

255
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 2: don't have to worry about it here. He can wing

256
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:31,960
Speaker 2: it around freely. And as much as I like the

257
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 2: Carolina defense overall, looking for a Lave to make some

258
00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:38,360
Speaker 2: plays downfield and then a bounce back effort. I don't

259
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:41,480
Speaker 2: think they're all the way back after a deplorable Week

260
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:45,479
Speaker 2: one effort, but looking for Jamar Chase and the Cincinnati

261
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 2: Bengals to get some traction against Baltimore. Baltimore already with

262
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:53,560
Speaker 2: a veritable mash unit running across the other trend coming

263
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,320
Speaker 2: out of Week one, I thought we were gonna be

264
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 2: healthy because we didn't have to play all the prison

265
00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 2: Now every injury list, we do a two hour podcast

266
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:02,320
Speaker 2: just reading names.

267
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 3: Hi. By the way, I do think that Tyreek Hill

268
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,920
Speaker 3: is cheating, So I do think that he is going

269
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 3: towards the line of scrimmage on a lot of those

270
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 3: motion plays.

271
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:12,920
Speaker 2: See I'm not alone.

272
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 3: No, no, Because I kept watching.

273
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 2: Replays this, I'm like, all right, that's a step. But

274
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 2: I think a bunch of teams are really starting to

275
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 2: take advantage of all right, we're getting loose. Like my

276
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:26,480
Speaker 2: kid plays travel soccer, right, and you have the throw in.

277
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 2: When they were little, it was really a discipline thing

278
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,920
Speaker 2: that they would enforce. Nope, bad throwing. Nope, you gotta

279
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 2: keep your feet. No, you can't run twenty yards before

280
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,480
Speaker 2: throwing the ball. Now it's kind of like nobody gives

281
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 2: a damn. You could start from you know, right by

282
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 2: the flag at one end and throw the ball at

283
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 2: about midfield and generally they don't stop it. I feel

284
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 2: like we're getting in the same thing in terms of

285
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 2: motion before a play is snapped away.

286
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's more guy Ceedee Lamb kind of does it

287
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:57,000
Speaker 3: with Dallas as well, although I think he's gotten busted

288
00:14:57,040 --> 00:15:01,040
Speaker 3: on it. I have cd Lamb in a fantasy dynasty league,

289
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 3: and so I think at times last year I saw

290
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:05,920
Speaker 3: him get nailed. But I know Tyreek Hill does it

291
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:07,560
Speaker 3: just up to the ref just like we saw in

292
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:09,240
Speaker 3: Week one with the Chiefs. It's up to the refs

293
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,880
Speaker 3: to call it. Those are Mike Harmon's top five quarterbacks,

294
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 3: running backs, and wide receivers. Don't worry, we got more

295
00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 3: players to talk about your hot plays. Gold Soars and

296
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 3: Ninja's coming up next here and I want your flex

297
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 3: bursche will tell you what defense is to stream. Coming

298
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:24,840
Speaker 3: up a little later in the podcast. I will give

299
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 3: you one reason to start someone and bench someone. But

300
00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:33,000
Speaker 3: we seceed. We leave the dance floor because the spotlight

301
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:35,200
Speaker 3: is on the one and only Mike Harmon, who said

302
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,720
Speaker 3: to give us the hot plays for Week two of

303
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 3: the NFL season. Guys that may not have made Mike's

304
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 3: top five, the guys that he really likes in fantasy

305
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:44,000
Speaker 3: football this week.

306
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 2: Well, we mentioned him a little bit earlier. Baker Mayfield

307
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,000
Speaker 2: going up against the Bears, Let's get it on. I

308
00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,760
Speaker 2: mean like he had a big Week one in the

309
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 2: run game. I think also you look at Rashad White

310
00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 2: and maybe an opportunity here against this Bears squad. They're

311
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 2: in shambles. There are a lot of fingers and fighting.

312
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 2: So I think for Tampa Bay coming out of that

313
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 2: week one win, feeling a little loose, right, you saw

314
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 2: all the great videos Baker Mayfield making jokes about the

315
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 2: Houston Astros and everything else. Feeling good. Evan's god winning company.

316
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,880
Speaker 2: Let's get it on. Anthony Richardson going up against Houston.

317
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 2: I don't know, passing the football week to week how

318
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,880
Speaker 2: much success we're going to have. He throws a pretty ball,

319
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 2: Pittman got involved, but we do know this, he's going

320
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:29,040
Speaker 2: to take off and run. Already banged up in that backfield,

321
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:32,040
Speaker 2: Evan Hole, I had to get the obligatory Northwestern guy,

322
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 2: and he's already to ir And I don't think you're

323
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 2: gonna suddenly give Dion Jackson twenty five touches. No, Anthony Richardson,

324
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 2: so long as he's upright, will be rushing the ball

325
00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 2: eight to ten times per game. About Josh Jacobs this

326
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:49,480
Speaker 2: week as he goes up against the Buffalo Bills, try

327
00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:52,480
Speaker 2: to find some level of consistency and then a late edition.

328
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 2: I'm gonna stay in that game more a ninja, but

329
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:57,240
Speaker 2: a guy that's gonna see it might have gotten dropped

330
00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 2: in a lot of leaks Hunter renfro because Kobe Myers

331
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:07,360
Speaker 2: doubtful with a concussion, so pass opportunities, safety valve kind

332
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,159
Speaker 2: of situation starts to come in. Amari Cooper going up

333
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:13,639
Speaker 2: against that Pittsburgh secondary. He's got to be, you know,

334
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:17,879
Speaker 2: feeding feeling pretty good about himself after everybody was chirping

335
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 2: a week ago and you saw what Minka Fitzpatrick, the

336
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 2: troubles he had. I think for Deshaun Watson, they'll they'll

337
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:26,880
Speaker 2: go right back at him. And then finally Keenan Allen,

338
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 2: not just because it'll give our our friend and colleague,

339
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,400
Speaker 2: Steve de Seger's stats for days to work on. I've

340
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 2: seen the the dossier on Keenan Allen. It's about three

341
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 2: hundred pages. Add one more. And his teammate Joshua Kelly

342
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:44,400
Speaker 2: again Austin Eckler as we sit and tape this podcast,

343
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:46,720
Speaker 2: not sure he's going to be able to go. Dealing

344
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,119
Speaker 2: with the death of his agent earlier in the week

345
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:52,600
Speaker 2: and he's on with an ankle injury. Kelly's still going

346
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 2: to have a significant workload regardless.

347
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 3: I do think that the Chargers Titans game intriguing on

348
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,919
Speaker 3: a lot of levels, but also just the fact of

349
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,040
Speaker 3: did you take Joshua Kelly or did you go after

350
00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:07,879
Speaker 3: Karen Williams waiver wire this week? Is It's something we

351
00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,800
Speaker 3: talked about last week. Which one's going to pay off?

352
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,639
Speaker 3: We'll see if it is Kelly Effeckler is unable to

353
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,680
Speaker 3: go with that bumb ankle.

354
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 4: And I do have Kyen Williams, and I don't feel

355
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 4: great about it for this week, but I mean for

356
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 4: the long haul, I think that it is a solid investment, Mike.

357
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,400
Speaker 4: As you mentioned Anthony Richardson going up against the Texans.

358
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 4: I love the start as well, and it's going to

359
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 4: feel ugly, but as you as you said, like Deon Jackson,

360
00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:36,919
Speaker 4: make it work. Zach Moss is back in that backfield

361
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:42,359
Speaker 4: and he should be able to go. It's exactly exactly.

362
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,960
Speaker 3: Indie Stars saying that they expect Moss to get the

363
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,199
Speaker 3: load of the carries. Yeah, in that game against Houston,

364
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 3: so he could.

365
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:56,760
Speaker 4: Very well be a flexible flex able to start at

366
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:57,920
Speaker 4: running back as well.

367
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 3: Let's good to the cold soar. Now they're not your

368
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 3: hot players, they are the guys you want to stay

369
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:04,760
Speaker 3: away from. You don't want to touch, you don't want

370
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:06,160
Speaker 3: to see, you don't want to look at Mike. Your

371
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,560
Speaker 3: cold soars for Week two in the NFL.

372
00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 2: We always go big game hunting, and maybe it's a

373
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:13,119
Speaker 2: captain obvious when you see the thirty eight and a

374
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,119
Speaker 2: half as the total. By the way, a lot of

375
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 2: very low totals here coming up in Week two, But

376
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,880
Speaker 2: Dak Prescott going up against the New York Football Jets.

377
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 2: I have no idea what to expect in this game.

378
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,360
Speaker 2: I'll be honest. Both teams playing a lot of defense,

379
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:31,840
Speaker 2: could be a field goal contest, could find the weak

380
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,680
Speaker 2: link in the secondary for the Jets. I'm not sure.

381
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:37,359
Speaker 2: I just know that if I drafted Dak Prescott, I

382
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:40,399
Speaker 2: probably drafted him as a back end QB one or

383
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:43,119
Speaker 2: high end QB two, which means the other guy was

384
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,679
Speaker 2: on my roster was drafted pretty closely thereafter. This is

385
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 2: one where I probably lean the other way. Matt Stafford

386
00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:52,760
Speaker 2: against San Francisco forty five is your total? Last week

387
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:56,199
Speaker 2: was a lot of fun. Puka and Nakua another one

388
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,080
Speaker 2: of the waiver wire darlings. You see a theme here, folks.

389
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:02,359
Speaker 2: Another waiver wired darling coming out of week one on

390
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 2: the injury report, not sure about availability, so we got

391
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 2: him there. You're looking at Javonte Williams going up against

392
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:14,440
Speaker 2: the Washington Commanders. Yeah, I almost said it because I've

393
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 2: been just doing a lot of reading of history, because

394
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,439
Speaker 2: you know, we've been doing all the this hasn't happened

395
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,280
Speaker 2: since this time kind of things after week one in

396
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:23,960
Speaker 2: the NFL, and that brings up a lot of Joe

397
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 2: Gibbs era kind of stuff. But yeah, for the Denver Broncos,

398
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 2: I'm curious against Washington in this one. You can take

399
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,480
Speaker 2: Russell Wilson with him as well, over under set at

400
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:42,399
Speaker 2: thirty nine, So a danger spot there. Jalen Waddle was

401
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 2: an afterthought week one. Maybe he's the guy that feasts

402
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 2: if they really try to bracket coverage and get crazy

403
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:51,480
Speaker 2: on Tyreek Hill with New England. But fearful for Tua

404
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 2: in company that this is a slower effort along the way.

405
00:20:55,640 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 3: It's crazy to think that in this situation situation week two,

406
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:06,359
Speaker 3: just take two weeks ago. Jets Cowboys. I'm salivating. Sure,

407
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:11,679
Speaker 3: I'm salivating Jets defense obviously, but Cowboys defense. I know

408
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 3: Burst was a believer, but I still would have thought like, man,

409
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:18,399
Speaker 3: this is Aaron Rodgers, Garrett Wilson, Breese Hall, Dalvin Cook,

410
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,800
Speaker 3: Tony Pollard, Dak Ceedee Lamb and the whole deal. And

411
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,800
Speaker 3: now I am waiting for Jim Nantz to be like

412
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 3: in the final from Dallas thirteen to three, Cowboys get

413
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:28,720
Speaker 3: the win.

414
00:21:29,240 --> 00:21:31,520
Speaker 2: That defensive touchdown in a bunch of field.

415
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:32,840
Speaker 4: No, I.

416
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:37,399
Speaker 2: Absolutely could very well be that, Like Dallas is favored

417
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,880
Speaker 2: by nine, so I expected some fireworks, and I think

418
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,080
Speaker 2: everybody's looking for Zack Wilson to give the ball away.

419
00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,400
Speaker 2: And I guess that's the caveat to the Dak side

420
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,240
Speaker 2: of it. Guys, you know, to take it further, is

421
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:52,639
Speaker 2: it you live on the Jets side of the field

422
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,840
Speaker 2: because Zach Wilson can't move the ball and they can't

423
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:59,320
Speaker 2: run the ball effectively, so that eventually, you know, the

424
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,680
Speaker 2: water Rhodes rock and you get a couple of scores

425
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 2: off of that. But do I want to sit for

426
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,040
Speaker 2: three hours and wait for that to happen and hope

427
00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 2: that that's gonna happen. No, I think I'd rather spend

428
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:10,800
Speaker 2: my time elsewhere.

429
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:15,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm starting Anthony Richardson over Dak. Prescotten this week

430
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 4: in one of my leagues. So yeah, I Facebook decision

431
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 4: and that's that's where I'm going.

432
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:24,000
Speaker 3: Well, he mentioned Anthony Richardson in the hot plays, who

433
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:27,680
Speaker 3: didn't mike mention that maybe could pop up in his ninjas.

434
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:31,440
Speaker 3: Let's find out right now, Harmon our sneaky plays for

435
00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 3: week two.

436
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:36,680
Speaker 2: Daniel Jones up against Arizona. Welcome back. They won't get

437
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,919
Speaker 2: blitzed like they did by the Cowboys in Week one.

438
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,560
Speaker 2: I'm looking at you, Dable. It's time to steady the ship.

439
00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:46,480
Speaker 2: Otherwise you may be floating out to see really quickly.

440
00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:49,800
Speaker 2: Gino Smith going up against Detroit, see what I'm doing.

441
00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:52,440
Speaker 2: Even though you don't have a single tackle to play

442
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:55,399
Speaker 2: for you, Dan this week, I'm looking for Gino to

443
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,159
Speaker 2: still be able to put the ball downfield, even if

444
00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:00,359
Speaker 2: it's you know, it gets out of hand a little

445
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,400
Speaker 2: bit early. I'm hoping for better cleaner play in Week

446
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:06,240
Speaker 2: two all around the NFL, but certainly from the Seattle Seahawks,

447
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,480
Speaker 2: one of the teams that we left scratching our heads

448
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,800
Speaker 2: with in Week one. Damian Pierce going up against the

449
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:16,840
Speaker 2: Indianapolis Colts. Yeah, that's right. I'm bullish on a Houston side.

450
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 2: The hell's wrong with me? Jalen Warren against Cleveland, look

451
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,280
Speaker 2: for him to be active in the passing game. Nico

452
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:27,240
Speaker 2: Collins going back to that Houston Indianapolis game, he quitted

453
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:30,040
Speaker 2: himself nicely. So I'm looking at WR three with some

454
00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 2: upside there. Alan Robinson with Deontay Johnson out, focusing on

455
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:38,040
Speaker 2: that Pittsburgh Cleveland game again, another robust thirty eight and

456
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:41,240
Speaker 2: a half on that one, fellas, and then let's grab

457
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:45,439
Speaker 2: a tight end for Giggles and Musgrave going up against Atlanta.

458
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,760
Speaker 2: A couple of big catches against the Bears week one.

459
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,480
Speaker 2: I think he takes on a larger role. Atlanta likes

460
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:54,119
Speaker 2: to play fast, try to get after Jordan Love, so

461
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 2: the hot route that we love so much out of

462
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 2: wedding grashers comes to play here. Yeah.

463
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 3: I do wonder what happens with Kenny Picket, you know,

464
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:06,080
Speaker 3: in that Monday night affair. Is it the George Pickens

465
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:08,080
Speaker 3: coming out party or is it more of the same.

466
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 3: And as he mentioned though, Deontay Johnson curious to see

467
00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:14,360
Speaker 3: and what Alan Robinson can do if the fresh start

468
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 3: will help you. But I mean, I think, considering everything

469
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:21,480
Speaker 3: that happened in Week one, the Pittsburgh Steelers provided maybe

470
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,400
Speaker 3: led the league in question marks, considering how questionable their

471
00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,000
Speaker 3: performance was against San Francisco.

472
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,720
Speaker 2: You know, I think that's it, though, Dan and Ryan,

473
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 2: as we talked about wrapping up Week one, I mean,

474
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,200
Speaker 2: how much can we take away from a lot of

475
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:36,440
Speaker 2: these teams that know showed like how much of any

476
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,120
Speaker 2: script anything they were going to show us just got

477
00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:42,880
Speaker 2: thrown out? Yeah, because the game was so out of reach,

478
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:46,640
Speaker 2: right and we watched New England battle back in after

479
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,120
Speaker 2: giving up the early lead to Philly. So I think

480
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 2: we may feel a little better about Matt Jones and such,

481
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:55,600
Speaker 2: but beyond that, you had what six or seven games

482
00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:58,880
Speaker 2: that were over after the first quarter. So how much

483
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,479
Speaker 2: do we really take stuff? Because if we do, then

484
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:03,199
Speaker 2: we just need to burn it all and have floating

485
00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:04,800
Speaker 2: dumpsters down the river right now.

486
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,639
Speaker 4: And looking at that Chiefs Jaguars game as well, with

487
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:11,720
Speaker 4: the Chiefs looking to bounce back, I think the fact

488
00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 4: that you're adding Travis Kelce back to the offense, there

489
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:19,120
Speaker 4: should be receivers that actually appear to be startable after

490
00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 4: that Week one debacle. You want to gamble there, I personally,

491
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,920
Speaker 4: I'm gambling on Rashie Rice, But I wouldn't be surprised

492
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:31,760
Speaker 4: if it's Kadarius Tony given just how much vitriol he

493
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 4: has faced over the last week, and they kind of

494
00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 4: use it as a proven opportunity for him.

495
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:37,879
Speaker 3: That should be a contest here on. I want your

496
00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 3: flex what Chiefs receiver not tight end? We're talking wide

497
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:46,159
Speaker 3: receiver wins that week and maybe we'll just have like

498
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,080
Speaker 3: a rotating Yeah, I mean, heck can we don't even

499
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 3: need that. We could just you like Rashie Rice Harmon

500
00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 3: maybe thinks Tony's gonna be able to catch the football.

501
00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 3: I was ready to pick up Justin Ross in every

502
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:02,120
Speaker 3: single league of mine. So we'll see if those guys

503
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 3: pan out in a week.

504
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:04,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I would look at Tony and I

505
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 2: had him on my long list as a giant quest

506
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,800
Speaker 2: work because he was open. He was open for days,

507
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,080
Speaker 2: even with no Keelsey b He just didn't catch it fall.

508
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 3: And I'm just sitting you thinking of Tony's pizzas spelled differently.

509
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 2: There.

510
00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:26,399
Speaker 3: It's an underrated pizza only for the simple fact it

511
00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 3: just doesn't taste like any other frozen pizza. They only

512
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:33,920
Speaker 3: give you like five pepperonis on it, which is always weird. More,

513
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,359
Speaker 3: all the pepperonis are like off to one side, so

514
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:39,400
Speaker 3: you have to reposition them on your pizza. But Tony's

515
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:42,320
Speaker 3: pizza give the frozen. He could find them in the freezer.

516
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:45,360
Speaker 2: Aisle, almost like someone door dashed it to the grocery

517
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:47,240
Speaker 2: store instead of the normal refrigerator.

518
00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 3: It's just like all to one side and like they

519
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:55,200
Speaker 3: didn't stay frozen to the pizza, but not spelled t

520
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,639
Speaker 3: o anywhy like Kadarius does. All right, they're your hot,

521
00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:00,639
Speaker 3: hot blaze cold source. And then just four week two

522
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:03,120
Speaker 3: for Mike Carmon coming up next, ber should I put

523
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:05,760
Speaker 3: on our hats. BUR's gonna tell you what streaming defenses

524
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:08,120
Speaker 3: he likes. Plus I'll give you a reason to start

525
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 3: a guy and bench again will wrap this bad boy

526
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:13,160
Speaker 3: up it. So I want your flex. He's Mike, that's Ryan,

527
00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,399
Speaker 3: I'm Dan. We'll be back in the sec all right,

528
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:17,480
Speaker 3: bershould I already it is. I want your flex. Hit

529
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:20,359
Speaker 3: Mike up at swollendum, get bursch at Ryan Berschinger and

530
00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:23,440
Speaker 3: find me Dan Byer at dan Byer on Fox. You

531
00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:26,440
Speaker 3: got some streaming defenses that you're high on in week two?

532
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, now of course if you've got a team

533
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:32,240
Speaker 4: like the Cowboys, Browns, and Saints, you're playing those they're

534
00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:35,200
Speaker 4: all great matchups, but they're all heavily rostered. So we're

535
00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 4: looking for defenses that, if you are still looking to

536
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,600
Speaker 4: make a move, probably still available in your leagues. I

537
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:43,639
Speaker 4: have a ton of shares of the Giants defense this

538
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:47,320
Speaker 4: week against the Cardinals. They're still they're only rostered in

539
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 4: about thirty five percent of league, so there's the heavily

540
00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,240
Speaker 4: open availability there. But also you can look the other

541
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,639
Speaker 4: way in that game, and we had mentioned this in

542
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,840
Speaker 4: an earlier episode. If you're looking at the Cardinals defense,

543
00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:02,680
Speaker 4: who who had a great week against the Commanders last week,

544
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,920
Speaker 4: and they're playing a team that literally didn't score any

545
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:10,040
Speaker 4: points last week as well, So you could even the Cardinals,

546
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,560
Speaker 4: I believe, are rostered only in five percent of leagues.

547
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,800
Speaker 4: So that's a deep play if you're looking for something

548
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,880
Speaker 4: and you're looking to change it up. I also, again,

549
00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:22,040
Speaker 4: like both sides of the Texans Colts game should be

550
00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:25,560
Speaker 4: a low scoring affair to rookie quarterbacks, both teams can

551
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:30,200
Speaker 4: get after it. Also, the Broncos defense against the aforementioned Commanders,

552
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,920
Speaker 4: who of course gave the Cardinals a great defensive showing

553
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:36,120
Speaker 4: last week. The Broncos are a good play as well.

554
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 3: Those are some interesting names. If I was in a

555
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 3: thirty team fantasy league, I still wouldn't play the Cardinals defense.

556
00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:52,200
Speaker 3: And plus I think it's Isaiah Simmons, the Isaiah revenge game.

557
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:55,440
Speaker 3: The Isaiah Simmons revenge that's right here we go takes

558
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 3: it out on the Cardinals. So maybe the Giants the

559
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:00,160
Speaker 3: play is the one to go with. All right, I'm

560
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:02,640
Speaker 3: going to continue with that theme, fellas, and I'm going

561
00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 3: to give you one reason to start you ready for this?

562
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 3: Let's go Lions defense. Now, I know that Lions defense

563
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,840
Speaker 3: are probably picked up by some teams. Mike alluded to

564
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 3: this earlier. The Seahawks are going to be down both

565
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,960
Speaker 3: their starting tackles. When I say I give you one reason,

566
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:21,400
Speaker 3: I try to stick to one reason. That would be

567
00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:24,920
Speaker 3: my reason. But it's also a huge revenge game, something

568
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,240
Speaker 3: that we touched on in this podcast. You like revenge,

569
00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:30,200
Speaker 3: Why would the Lions e revenge? I think the Lions

570
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 3: are trying to find any way that they can continue

571
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:35,760
Speaker 3: to have a chip on their shoulder now that they

572
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:39,440
Speaker 3: are the favorites in the NFC North by a bunch

573
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,280
Speaker 3: of people. Now they've got that win from Kansas City.

574
00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,320
Speaker 3: How can people look at us and think that we

575
00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 3: are the underdog? And it was the Seahawks who kept

576
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,600
Speaker 3: the Lions from making the playoffs last year. Seattle went

577
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,720
Speaker 3: to Detroit, won a game in about Week four last year,

578
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 3: a high scoring affair, and that was what kept Detroit

579
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:01,680
Speaker 3: from making it to the postseason. I think the Lions

580
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:04,280
Speaker 3: remember that they are my give you one reason to

581
00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:06,280
Speaker 3: start the Lions defense this week?

582
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:07,480
Speaker 2: So get that.

583
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, even going against my Seahawks, Yeah, I think that

584
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 3: they are staring zero to two right in the face.

585
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:13,600
Speaker 4: Absolutely.

586
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 3: As for giving you one reason to bench a guy,

587
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,320
Speaker 3: I know that there was a lot of hype, but

588
00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 3: the team that I picked to win the af NFC

589
00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 3: South with the Atlanta Falcons, and not only with their

590
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 3: run game, but they added pieces on defense, and those

591
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:31,720
Speaker 3: pieces made headlines in Week one. I'm benching Jordan Love

592
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,640
Speaker 3: of the Green Bay Packers off of that three touchdown affair.

593
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:39,840
Speaker 3: There's likely no Aaron Jones. Watson's health is obviously still

594
00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:42,480
Speaker 3: a question. I'd be shocked to see either of them

595
00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:44,880
Speaker 3: at the time of this recording. For that game, and

596
00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:46,880
Speaker 3: now you're in a ground and pound game where the

597
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:51,800
Speaker 3: over under is you know what, hovering around forty. Yeah. Yeah,

598
00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:55,120
Speaker 3: benching Jordan Love after his three touchdown performance in week one.

599
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:57,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, we look at the board as a whole

600
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:00,480
Speaker 2: to extrap play on that. You've only got one game

601
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:04,240
Speaker 2: that's crossed the fifty threshold this week. That's Kansas City Jacksonville.

602
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:08,600
Speaker 2: A lot sitting in the high thirties, very low forties,

603
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:10,840
Speaker 2: A lot of thirty nine and thirty nine and a

604
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:14,760
Speaker 2: half's on the board Dain, So definitely one we're looking at.

605
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:17,800
Speaker 2: And for Jordan Love, yeah, it's one of those like

606
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,560
Speaker 2: I had Musgrave as a as a ninja, like he

607
00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:24,320
Speaker 2: can perform and the quarterback does nothing right. I get

608
00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 2: a couple of nice passes on the seam and a

609
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:30,280
Speaker 2: couple of dump offs because you're trying to help AJ

610
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:34,080
Speaker 2: Dillon in the run game. But yeah, this is definitely

611
00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 2: a dangerous spot. I picked Atlanta to win the division,

612
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,360
Speaker 2: as I did Green Bay on their side, so something's

613
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 2: got to give here in week two.

614
00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 3: All right, there it is our I want your Flex podcast.

615
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:47,479
Speaker 3: Hope you are set for week two. Now. I may

616
00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:51,040
