Yesterday, we 0:01:23.280 --> 0:01:25.720 had a lot of questions about a who should I 0:01:25.720 --> 0:01:28.279 put my waiver claim in for? You know, the Cooper Cups, 0:01:28.319 --> 0:01:32.000 the Buck Allen's, the Tyreek Cohen's of the world. Okay, 0:01:32.200 --> 0:01:35.160 now that waiver wires have run, we're gonna see if 0:01:35.160 --> 0:01:37.240 any of those guys are still available on free agent 0:01:37.280 --> 0:01:41.200 pickups on your rosters in your league's. We're also gonna 0:01:41.240 --> 0:01:43.760 have probably some trade questions. I'm ready to help you 0:01:43.800 --> 0:01:47.560 out all our long. We also have a poll question 0:01:47.720 --> 0:01:49.760 up right now on Twitter. You could always go to 0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:53.000 us on Twitter at Spitting Speeds at F and T 0:01:53.280 --> 0:01:56.800 s Y Radio on Twitter. The question I have for 0:01:56.880 --> 0:01:59.960 you and the theme here really right after week one 0:02:00.120 --> 0:02:03.080 is over, he's like overreacting right. People are like, oh 0:02:03.120 --> 0:02:05.200 my god, should I drop this guy? You know, this 0:02:05.240 --> 0:02:07.800 guy like Hunter Henry for example, a guy he didn't 0:02:07.800 --> 0:02:09.840 get any targets, but you drafted him to be an 0:02:09.840 --> 0:02:13.360 ascending kind of good sleeper tight end. No, do not 0:02:13.720 --> 0:02:16.880 drop Hunter Henry telling me about, oh um, who's the 0:02:16.919 --> 0:02:19.639 guy that's gonna replace you know, Alan Robinson? Should I 0:02:19.680 --> 0:02:21.600 just go ahead? And you know who should I dropped? 0:02:21.600 --> 0:02:23.919 Should I dropped Joe Mixon because he had a bad 0:02:23.960 --> 0:02:27.120 outing in Week one? No, let it settle. So in 0:02:27.160 --> 0:02:29.320 that vein, I put up a pole question, which of 0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:33.000 these surprise first place teams can keep it going and 0:02:33.080 --> 0:02:36.880 maybe make a push and qualify for the playoffs this year. 0:02:36.960 --> 0:02:39.040 I don't know if you know, but these three teams 0:02:39.080 --> 0:02:43.400 are in first place by themselves. One is the Buffalo Bills. 0:02:43.600 --> 0:02:46.160 The Buffalo Bills are one and no. Remember Miami did 0:02:46.200 --> 0:02:49.079 not play in Week one. The Patriots and Jets both 0:02:49.160 --> 0:02:51.880 lost in that division. What about the L A Rams? 0:02:51.919 --> 0:02:55.120 The L A Rams looks super impressive against the Colts. 0:02:55.120 --> 0:02:58.320 Remember in that division, Seattle loss in that division, Arizona 0:02:58.360 --> 0:03:00.639 loss in that division. The fort is us as well. 0:03:00.800 --> 0:03:03.440 It is the Rams standing by themselves as one. And oh, 0:03:03.639 --> 0:03:07.359 or is it the Jacksonville Jaguars who went into Houston 0:03:07.440 --> 0:03:10.160 that was my knockout pick for God's sakes, went into 0:03:10.200 --> 0:03:12.960 Houston and beat them. Remember the Titans in that division 0:03:13.000 --> 0:03:16.000 also loss in the Indianapolis Colts look like they could 0:03:16.080 --> 0:03:18.560 be the worst team in the NFL. So we got 0:03:18.600 --> 0:03:20.919 that pole question up there right now. If you want 0:03:20.960 --> 0:03:23.120 to think also none of the above, do you not 0:03:23.280 --> 0:03:26.119 believe in any of them, and that is a viable response. 0:03:26.240 --> 0:03:27.760 I'll let you know what the people are saying a 0:03:27.760 --> 0:03:30.359 little bit later on in the show when we come back, though, 0:03:30.520 --> 0:03:32.919 what we're gonna do is we're gonna go through some announcements. 0:03:32.919 --> 0:03:36.040 Some coaches are making declarations on Wednesday about some of 0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:38.440 their players for Week two, and then I'm gonna start 0:03:38.640 --> 0:03:41.960 to break down every game in week to tell you 0:03:42.040 --> 0:03:44.880 what you need to look for and all of these matchups. 0:03:44.880 --> 0:03:47.280 When we come back, we're dropping stats over beats.

I got my man, Chris Bavona on 0:05:01.360 --> 0:05:03.120 the one to choose. They'll take good care of him. 0:05:03.120 --> 0:05:04.480 You if you want to holler at me this hour, 0:05:04.560 --> 0:05:07.760 you can at eight four four eight four three six 0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:10.640 eight seven nine. We're gonna get the phone lines in 0:05:10.640 --> 0:05:12.920 a minute. But first, let me tell you some news 0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:16.360 and notes and injuries around the NFL that have some implications. 0:05:16.600 --> 0:05:18.520 I gotta get out to you first of all. All right, 0:05:18.760 --> 0:05:23.919 in Indianapolis, Jacoby Brissette and Scott Tolzine have split the 0:05:23.960 --> 0:05:27.760 first team reps at quarterback in practice this week. I 0:05:27.839 --> 0:05:30.840 actually believe that why not, Okay, they need They know 0:05:30.920 --> 0:05:33.880 what Scott Tolzine is and it is not pretty. They 0:05:33.880 --> 0:05:37.160 traded for Jacoby Brisette at the end of the preseason. 0:05:37.200 --> 0:05:40.039 Why not run him out and see if you got anything. 0:05:40.040 --> 0:05:41.840 But the interesting point here he is I want to 0:05:41.839 --> 0:05:45.679 make another point on Indianapolis. Their right tackle Denzel Good 0:05:46.000 --> 0:05:47.920 was sent to the i R and something of a 0:05:47.960 --> 0:05:50.320 surprising move because the Beat reporters that are talking about 0:05:50.360 --> 0:05:53.360 it in Indy didn't really see him get hurt. In 0:05:53.440 --> 0:05:56.440 Week one he played something like all fifty snaps, So 0:05:56.480 --> 0:05:59.360 this is something of a surprising injury. But the starting 0:05:59.440 --> 0:06:02.800 right goal Denzel Good has been sent to i R. 0:06:03.040 --> 0:06:06.479 Remember they also lost their center Kelly early in the 0:06:06.520 --> 0:06:10.520 season that like young player at Alabama. So not only 0:06:10.839 --> 0:06:13.320 do they have bad quarterback play, but it looks like 0:06:13.360 --> 0:06:16.359 they have bad offensive line play as well. Remember that 0:06:16.520 --> 0:06:19.680 is one of my thesis here for this season. Offensive 0:06:19.720 --> 0:06:23.600 line play is bad around the NFL, even more reason 0:06:23.720 --> 0:06:26.960 if you needed it already to fade the Indianapolis Colts 0:06:27.000 --> 0:06:29.680 and to downgrade all of their skill players, whether that 0:06:29.720 --> 0:06:33.039 be mont Grief, Hilton or Jack Doyle. And also we're 0:06:33.080 --> 0:06:36.960 in reports that Andrew Luck maybe a little bit upset 0:06:37.120 --> 0:06:39.279 with the Indianapolis Colt, said he played through some of 0:06:39.320 --> 0:06:42.440 the shoulder injury last year when they knew he was hurt. Remember, 0:06:42.440 --> 0:06:45.760 this recovery is taking a long time. I actually believe 0:06:45.839 --> 0:06:48.680 Chuck Pagano might be one of the first coaches let go. 0:06:49.000 --> 0:06:53.680 In the NFL, I think it is deteriorating quickly. In Indianapolis. 0:06:53.760 --> 0:06:56.120 Remember the Bengals and the Texans. They play in Thursday 0:06:56.200 --> 0:06:59.400 Night Football tomorrow and the first round pick, John Ross 0:06:59.680 --> 0:07:02.520 out of Washington their wide receiver, and since he is 0:07:02.560 --> 0:07:04.839 a long shot, they say to be ready for Thursday 0:07:04.960 --> 0:07:07.599 Night football. He's still dealing with that knee injury. And 0:07:07.760 --> 0:07:09.560 if you're gonna go run a four to two and 0:07:09.600 --> 0:07:11.360 get an island or something like that and be the 0:07:11.360 --> 0:07:14.120 fastest man ever, you need healthy knees. So they're gonna 0:07:14.120 --> 0:07:16.559 wait a little while make sure he is a hundred percent. 0:07:16.640 --> 0:07:18.640 It does not look like he will be ready for 0:07:18.840 --> 0:07:22.960 Week two Tomorrow night. Patriots wide receiver Danny A. Mendola, 0:07:23.080 --> 0:07:26.240 he did not practice today for the Patriots. Remember he's 0:07:26.240 --> 0:07:29.000 got that head injury. They're going short of calling at 0:07:29.000 --> 0:07:31.760 a concussion per se. But even more reason if a 0:07:31.880 --> 0:07:35.120 Mendola is out, you know Edelman is also already out. 0:07:35.440 --> 0:07:37.440 I think there'll be an emergence of Hogan. You know 0:07:37.800 --> 0:07:42.160 Mitchell is not there either, But even more reason to 0:07:42.200 --> 0:07:44.600 look at these running backs on New England. Okay, the 0:07:44.640 --> 0:07:47.880 Dion Lewis is the James White. That's where Brady is 0:07:47.920 --> 0:07:50.120 going to go. He's gonna be a dink and dunk offense. 0:07:50.320 --> 0:07:52.840 Brady didn't look that accurate, to be quite honest, when 0:07:52.840 --> 0:07:55.440 he went down the field in that opener. But against 0:07:55.440 --> 0:07:58.520 the Saints past defense and defense in general, I expect 0:07:58.600 --> 0:08:00.920 TV twelve to have a big time bounce back game. 0:08:01.120 --> 0:08:03.400 The Patriots will not be going oh and to remember, 0:08:03.400 --> 0:08:05.559 people thought they were going sixteen and oh and also 0:08:05.720 --> 0:08:08.880 in that Thursday Night game, it looks like Houston is 0:08:08.920 --> 0:08:12.240 going to turn to the rookie Deshaun Watson under center. 0:08:12.320 --> 0:08:14.800 He got into full practice. Bill O'Brien earlier in the 0:08:14.840 --> 0:08:17.760 week was saying that health will be a dictating factor, 0:08:17.800 --> 0:08:20.040 and it looks like Watson is okay with that ankle. 0:08:20.280 --> 0:08:23.320 I expect DeShawn Watson, the rookie, to be the starting 0:08:23.400 --> 0:08:27.480 quarterback Tomorrow night for the Houston Texans and Thursday Night football. However, 0:08:27.800 --> 0:08:32.240 they will be without their stud linebacker Brian Cushing. For 0:08:32.320 --> 0:08:35.480 a while, he was already dealing with in the concussion protocol, 0:08:35.720 --> 0:08:38.400 but now he just got popped the ten game suspension 0:08:38.640 --> 0:08:41.800 for using performance enhancing drugs. You will not see Cushing 0:08:42.240 --> 0:08:46.080 in the lineup for Texas until after Thanksgiving. This is 0:08:46.120 --> 0:08:48.880 his second suspension for p E d S since he 0:08:48.920 --> 0:08:51.480 came into the league in two thousand and nine. Last 0:08:51.480 --> 0:08:54.240 thing to note, remember we know David Johnson is going 0:08:54.280 --> 0:08:56.680 to be out for two to three months having surgery 0:08:56.679 --> 0:08:59.400 on that RIFFT. It has been announced Bruce Arian says 0:08:59.440 --> 0:09:02.320 today that Kerwin Williams will be the starter for the 0:09:02.559 --> 0:09:06.040 Cardinals moving forward. Looks like Andre Ellington will be number 0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:09.720 two and the recently resigned Chris Johnson will be number 0:09:09.840 --> 0:09:13.480 three on the depth chart. Okay, I want to get 0:09:13.520 --> 0:09:17.120 into my preview of the different games, but I know 0:09:17.200 --> 0:09:19.880 we have callers, so let's uh, let's take a couple 0:09:19.920 --> 0:09:24.040 of callers in this segment. It sounds like we have Pauli. 0:09:24.480 --> 0:09:27.280 Pauli is in east Chester. He's got a question of 0:09:27.320 --> 0:09:31.280 what wide receivers to start in his flex spot. Hey, Pauli, 0:09:31.480 --> 0:09:34.000 you're dropping stats over beats with spitting speeds. You're on 0:09:34.040 --> 0:09:39.520 the Fantasy Freestyle. What's up? Hey? How are you doing? 0:09:40.960 --> 0:09:44.520 I'm a twelve man PPR league and looking at a 0:09:44.559 --> 0:09:50.040 flex position for this week between the Shaan Jackson, UH 0:09:50.200 --> 0:09:55.280 East Sanders and Cup. Okay, interesting, um, Emmanuel Sanders is 0:09:55.320 --> 0:09:58.600 there as well. Okay, um, I think all of those 0:09:58.640 --> 0:10:01.080 are decent options. But I'm gonna tell you something. I 0:10:01.120 --> 0:10:04.920 like Emmanuel Sanders. Okay, Emmanuel Sanders. This week on the 0:10:04.960 --> 0:10:08.839 Denver Broncos. They're going against Dallas, okay, and Dallas has 0:10:08.880 --> 0:10:11.680 a very bad secondary. They lost a lot of their 0:10:11.679 --> 0:10:14.880 starting secondary in the off season. They're still trying to 0:10:14.920 --> 0:10:18.520 rebuild that back half of that defense. I love Emmanuel 0:10:18.559 --> 0:10:21.880 Sanders in this matchup. I think that the Broncos wide 0:10:21.880 --> 0:10:25.200 receivers are going to be able to eat on Sunday 0:10:25.280 --> 0:10:29.199 at home against the Dallas Cowboys. So I like Emmanuel Sanders. 0:10:29.440 --> 0:10:32.320 I also, um, you know, you have DeShawn Jackson and 0:10:32.360 --> 0:10:35.480 Cooper Cup there as well. That's how I would rank them, Okay, 0:10:35.640 --> 0:10:39.000 I would take Sanders first, then DeShawn Jackson, and then 0:10:39.080 --> 0:10:42.400 Cooper Cup. DeShawn Jackson and the Bucks have not played yet. 0:10:42.440 --> 0:10:44.640 I think they're gonna be chomping at the bit at 0:10:44.679 --> 0:10:47.240 home against the Bears. And I think that the Bucks 0:10:47.480 --> 0:10:50.800 have something schemed to, uh, you know, go take shots 0:10:50.800 --> 0:10:53.880 down the field for their new toy. DeShawn Jackson. Cooper 0:10:53.920 --> 0:10:57.600 Cup is everybody's darling and I like him. Also, I 0:10:57.640 --> 0:10:59.720 think he's gonna be getting a lot of targets, a 0:10:59.720 --> 0:11:02.720 lot of hatches for these rams. But I think there's 0:11:02.760 --> 0:11:06.160 better options. You mentioned Emmanuel Sanders and DeShawn Jackson. Both 0:11:06.200 --> 0:11:08.920 of them I do think are better options. So I 0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:13.400 would go with Emmanuel Sanders in that situation. And thank 0:11:13.440 --> 0:11:16.439 you for the call. We got another call. It looks 0:11:16.480 --> 0:11:19.280 like Chris, let's go right now. We've got Stephen Massachusetts. 0:11:19.440 --> 0:11:23.800 Stephen Massachusetts is wondering about Josh Gordon. Of all people, Hey, Steve, 0:11:23.840 --> 0:11:28.040 you're on the Fantasy Freestyle. What's up? Hey? I think 0:11:28.080 --> 0:11:30.880 I wanted a while black are you guys are taking 0:11:31.160 --> 0:11:33.439 calls from Josh Gordon and man like you were telling 0:11:33.480 --> 0:11:36.719 everybody he might not get reinstated. But now I don't 0:11:36.720 --> 0:11:40.760 know if you heard about this, but I actually found 0:11:40.800 --> 0:11:43.360 this out today. I guess, like yesterday, I don't I 0:11:43.400 --> 0:11:47.480 don't know whose source was, but there's been like, uh, 0:11:47.800 --> 0:11:49.600 I guess it was leaked oubt that this guy might 0:11:49.640 --> 0:11:53.280 actually get reinstated because he's been in he's been in 0:11:53.600 --> 0:11:57.400 this rehab program. Yeah, thanks, Steve. I mean we know 0:11:57.440 --> 0:12:01.160 about Josh Gordon. Okay, listen, he the rehab and all this, 0:12:02.240 --> 0:12:04.960 don't do it. Okay, I'm gonna tell you before I'll 0:12:05.000 --> 0:12:07.560 tell you again, whether it's Steve out there in Massachusetts 0:12:07.600 --> 0:12:12.199 or anybody else wondering about Josh Gordon, I'm telling you, uh, 0:12:12.240 --> 0:12:14.920 this has been kind of like the Shangri Law for 0:12:14.960 --> 0:12:18.440 almost now two years. I don't think Josh Gordon is 0:12:18.480 --> 0:12:20.959 going to get reinstated. Even if he does, he has 0:12:21.000 --> 0:12:23.160 to get in football shape. And I don't think Hugh 0:12:23.280 --> 0:12:26.040 Jackson wants any part of him in that culture. I 0:12:26.040 --> 0:12:28.840 think Corey Coleman and Kenny Britt are the wide receivers 0:12:28.840 --> 0:12:31.840 in Cleveland. I would not waste the roster spot on 0:12:31.920 --> 0:12:34.160 Josh Gordon. And I'm gonna tell you guys, we're not 0:12:34.160 --> 0:12:37.160 gonna talk much about Josh Gordon anymore here on the 0:12:37.200 --> 0:12:40.120 Fantasy Freestyle. I do not think he's coming back. I 0:12:40.200 --> 0:12:43.440 do not think he is worth the roster spot. Okay. 0:12:43.559 --> 0:12:45.360 I do want to tell you though, I do want 0:12:45.360 --> 0:12:47.520 to get into some previews here about Week two, and 0:12:47.520 --> 0:12:50.600 we're gonna start Thursday Night Football where the Texans go 0:12:50.640 --> 0:12:53.320 to Cincinnati to take on the Bengals. The Bengals are 0:12:53.400 --> 0:12:56.880 five point favorites and thirty eight is the total. Listen, 0:12:57.200 --> 0:13:00.520 thirty eight is the total. That's all you need to 0:13:00.600 --> 0:13:03.600 know about this game. This is a game where people 0:13:03.640 --> 0:13:06.840 do not expect points to be scored. Thursday night football 0:13:06.920 --> 0:13:10.680 is always a poor quality product anyway, and um, to 0:13:10.720 --> 0:13:14.760 be quite honest, both of these teams looked like dog 0:13:14.840 --> 0:13:19.640 trash um in Week one, especially with the offensive line. 0:13:19.840 --> 0:13:24.439 The Houston offensive line gave up ten sacks to Jacksonville. 0:13:24.679 --> 0:13:28.160 In Week one the Cincinnati Bengals, they didn't look much better, 0:13:28.200 --> 0:13:31.360 and the Dalton was sacked four or five times, and 0:13:31.520 --> 0:13:35.120 that offense looked like pooh. Right. So here's the thing. 0:13:36.240 --> 0:13:38.400 There's not gonna be a lot of points scored in 0:13:38.440 --> 0:13:41.960 this game. I would fade most of the Houston Texans. 0:13:42.040 --> 0:13:44.920 I do not believe in Deshaun Watson either. He didn't 0:13:44.960 --> 0:13:47.280 look that great coming back. I really think they put 0:13:47.280 --> 0:13:50.040 in Deshaun Watson in the second half there just because 0:13:50.040 --> 0:13:53.760 he was better to escape with his life than Tom Savage. Okay, 0:13:53.800 --> 0:13:58.240 the only Houston Texans that I like in this game 0:13:58.559 --> 0:14:01.719 is my man, DeAndre hop and DeAndre Hopkins was going 0:14:01.840 --> 0:14:05.199 up against a good Jacksonville Jaguars secondary and he had 0:14:05.240 --> 0:14:08.120 seven catches for fifty five yards. He got a touchdown 0:14:08.160 --> 0:14:11.120 as well. But here's the most important part. He had 0:14:11.200 --> 0:14:15.080 six team targets. Okay, Deshaun Watson is going to force 0:14:15.160 --> 0:14:19.680 feed DeAndre Hopkins. DeAndre hopkins six teen targets was the 0:14:19.920 --> 0:14:23.320 highest in the NFL out of Week one, and I 0:14:23.360 --> 0:14:27.200 think that might continue. DeAndre Hopkins is the only Houston 0:14:27.280 --> 0:14:30.240 Texans that I think has a chance to return you value, 0:14:30.280 --> 0:14:32.920 whether it's DFS or in your season long leagues. I 0:14:32.920 --> 0:14:37.280 think DeAndre Hopkins is gonna be heavily targeted all season long. 0:14:37.320 --> 0:14:40.320 I think DeAndre Hopkins is a high end wide receiver too. 0:14:40.600 --> 0:14:42.840 He may even find his way back into the wide 0:14:42.840 --> 0:14:46.440 receiver one conversation on the Cincinnati side, I'm telling you 0:14:46.680 --> 0:14:50.480 I don't like this offensive line protecting Andy Dalton. I'm 0:14:50.520 --> 0:14:52.960 fading Andy Dalton. He through four picks. He had a 0:14:53.040 --> 0:14:56.760 QBR on Week one of less than one. You don't 0:14:56.800 --> 0:14:59.400 see that a lot. Okay, when we come back, though, 0:14:59.400 --> 0:15:01.120 because I'm here the music. When we come back, I'm 0:15:01.120 --> 0:15:03.800 gonna talk about the running back position of Cincinnati. We're 0:15:03.800 --> 0:15:06.440 gonna get to some of your questions as well.

Chris Bovona bringing us back 0:16:13.240 --> 0:16:14.640 with a little bit of M and M right here, 0:16:14.720 --> 0:16:17.800 dropping stats over beats on the Fantasy Freestyle Speed. It's 0:16:17.840 --> 0:16:20.960 been statistician getting you ready for a Week two of 0:16:21.120 --> 0:16:23.280 the NFL season. Before we want to break. We were 0:16:23.320 --> 0:16:26.400 talking about Thursday Night Football. The the statu you need 0:16:26.480 --> 0:16:28.480 to know about is that the over under on this 0:16:28.520 --> 0:16:31.400 game is thirty eight. That is very low for an 0:16:31.520 --> 0:16:35.960 NFL game, and they believe that these offenses will be futured. 0:16:36.040 --> 0:16:38.360 I told you that in uh in Houston, the only 0:16:38.400 --> 0:16:41.600 guy I want to own is DeAndre Hopkins. I think 0:16:41.600 --> 0:16:44.440 his sixteen targets that lead the NFL is a trend 0:16:44.480 --> 0:16:47.200 that may continue on the Cincinnati side of things. I 0:16:47.280 --> 0:16:50.080 told you in the off season, Okay, run it back. 0:16:50.160 --> 0:16:52.680 That's the beauty of being on air every night from 0:16:52.720 --> 0:16:55.720 seven a p m. Eastern Time, live from Rock and Riley's. 0:16:55.880 --> 0:16:57.680 You can always go back and I can be like 0:16:57.760 --> 0:16:59.640 I told you so when you can find it if 0:16:59.640 --> 0:17:02.560 you down download the Fantasy Sports Radio Network app, or 0:17:02.640 --> 0:17:05.399 check us out anywhere you get your podcast. I said 0:17:05.680 --> 0:17:08.600 that I was a little bit concerned with the Cincinnati 0:17:08.640 --> 0:17:12.119 Bengals offensive line because when there is pressure in Andy 0:17:12.200 --> 0:17:15.400 Dalton's face, he will make mistakes. He made not one, 0:17:15.520 --> 0:17:18.880 not two, not three, but four mistakes and interceptions last 0:17:18.880 --> 0:17:22.480 week and the Bengals got completely shut out against the Ravens. 0:17:22.520 --> 0:17:26.640 Now This week they play the Houston Texans, another stud 0:17:27.040 --> 0:17:30.320 defense and defensive front with the likes of Whitney Merciless 0:17:30.359 --> 0:17:32.879 and J. J. Watt to Davian Clowney. They will not 0:17:33.040 --> 0:17:35.239 have Brian Cushing, but I think it could be the 0:17:35.280 --> 0:17:38.159 same old story. So what does that mean for the 0:17:38.200 --> 0:17:41.679 Cincinnati Bengals. Okay, I think I think that means you 0:17:41.720 --> 0:17:45.120 need to fade Jeremy Hill. The running game is not there. However, 0:17:45.440 --> 0:17:49.040 Giovanni Bernard and Joe Mixon I think are still viable, 0:17:49.160 --> 0:17:52.200 especially in PPR leagues. Those are gonna be the past 0:17:52.240 --> 0:17:55.600 catching backs for the Cincinnati Bengals. I think he really 0:17:55.640 --> 0:17:59.480 need to consider Giovanni Bernard and Joe Mixon. Do not 0:17:59.680 --> 0:18:02.920 throw away Joe Mixing early just because he only had 0:18:02.960 --> 0:18:06.080 eight carries for nine yards in Week one. I think 0:18:06.119 --> 0:18:08.520 he's gonna do some damage in the passing game. I 0:18:08.520 --> 0:18:10.840 think that's gonna be the way that the Cincinnati Bengals 0:18:10.840 --> 0:18:13.439 are gonna have to roll with these offensive line problems. 0:18:13.480 --> 0:18:15.560 You're not gonna see Dalton being able to take big 0:18:15.600 --> 0:18:18.359 five and seven step drops trying to go deep down 0:18:18.359 --> 0:18:20.359 the field to a guy like a J Green or 0:18:20.400 --> 0:18:22.720 even John Ross when he's healthy. I think they're gonna 0:18:22.720 --> 0:18:25.000 get the ball out a little quicker. I'm very interested 0:18:25.040 --> 0:18:27.960 to see Bernard and Mixing in the screen game and 0:18:28.080 --> 0:18:30.240 effort as well. That's the way I think you're gonna 0:18:30.240 --> 0:18:33.240 need to play it because this offensive line in Cincinnati 0:18:33.640 --> 0:18:37.000 is not going to get any better. All right, we 0:18:37.080 --> 0:18:38.520 want to go back to the phone lines. You can 0:18:38.520 --> 0:18:40.199 still holler at me this hour if you want. At 0:18:40.200 --> 0:18:43.200 eight four four, eight four three six eight seven nine, 0:18:43.240 --> 0:18:46.000 we have Tyler and Alabama. I don't know if Tyler 0:18:46.080 --> 0:18:48.040 is more of a war eagle or a roll tied. 0:18:48.080 --> 0:18:50.200 I gotta ask you that, Tyler. But then it sounds 0:18:50.200 --> 0:18:52.760 like you got a question about some wide receivers for 0:18:52.800 --> 0:18:55.480 this week. Tyler, you were on the Fantasy Freestyle dropping 0:18:55.520 --> 0:18:59.640 stats over beats. What's your question? Hey? How you doing? Man? 0:19:00.200 --> 0:19:02.840 I got I got savers. I'm trying to find two 0:19:02.840 --> 0:19:04.720 spots for all right, let me know who are there? 0:19:06.760 --> 0:19:12.200 I got Corey Coldman, Alshon, Jeffrey Martevis, Bryant, and Jamison Crowder. 0:19:12.400 --> 0:19:17.400 All right, let me see this is again you said Coleman, Jeffrey, Martevis, Bryant, 0:19:17.960 --> 0:19:21.879 and Crowder. I believe you said was the last one, right, Okay, 0:19:22.280 --> 0:19:25.800 So here's what I think. Alright, First things first, al 0:19:25.840 --> 0:19:30.160 Shan Jeffrey Alshan Jeffrey is the one that is a 0:19:30.280 --> 0:19:32.639 kind of a problem for me. Shall we say, I 0:19:32.680 --> 0:19:34.920 know he is the highest ranked kind of guy out 0:19:34.920 --> 0:19:36.879 of them on a week to week on a basis, 0:19:36.920 --> 0:19:39.440 and you probably drafted him first out of all these 0:19:39.440 --> 0:19:41.960 guys in your league. But Alshan Jeffrey is there at 0:19:42.040 --> 0:19:46.040 Kansas City. Kansas City and Marcus Peters. Marcus Peters was 0:19:46.160 --> 0:19:48.480 a stud and he's one of those guys that likes 0:19:48.520 --> 0:19:51.200 to gamble. He had a good game in Week one 0:19:51.240 --> 0:19:54.600 against the Patriots. I'm a little concerned about Jeffrey. I 0:19:54.600 --> 0:19:56.720 think the skill is there. But if you also saw 0:19:56.800 --> 0:19:58.919 Carson Wentz is looking to find a lot of different 0:19:58.920 --> 0:20:02.120 people throwing a ball that Aaron Sprowles loving, zach Ertz 0:20:02.119 --> 0:20:05.640 a lot over the middle, even got Nelson Aglare involved. Okay, 0:20:05.720 --> 0:20:08.159 so I'm a little bit down on Jeffrey and that 0:20:08.200 --> 0:20:11.600 matchup against Kansas City I love. On the other hand, 0:20:11.880 --> 0:20:16.880 I love me some Martevis Bryant. Martevis Bryant. Um. They're 0:20:16.880 --> 0:20:19.600 going up against the Minnesota Vikings, all right, in the 0:20:19.640 --> 0:20:23.520 home opener for the Pittsburgh Steelers. This Steeler's offense is 0:20:23.880 --> 0:20:27.560 much better at home with big ben Levian Belle Antonio 0:20:27.640 --> 0:20:31.000 Brown all there. And here's the thing. Minnesota employs two 0:20:31.320 --> 0:20:35.200 pretty good defensive back the first the Xavier Bumpy Rhodes. 0:20:35.240 --> 0:20:37.800 I think he'll be on Antonio Brown. That leaves the 0:20:37.920 --> 0:20:42.439 thirty nine year old Terrence Newman to deal with Martevis Bryant. 0:20:42.480 --> 0:20:45.200 I think Martevis Bryant is gonna be good for one 0:20:45.320 --> 0:20:48.240 big play this week and he might get into the 0:20:48.359 --> 0:20:51.520 end zone. And with that upside, I like Martevis Bryant. Okay, 0:20:51.520 --> 0:20:53.919 I'm a little down on Jeffrey, as I said, although 0:20:53.920 --> 0:20:56.080 the skill is there, and if you want to disagree 0:20:56.080 --> 0:20:58.879 with me and go with Jeffrey, I can't complain. I 0:20:59.040 --> 0:21:02.120 understand what you say. I'm fading Jeffrey, though I love 0:21:02.160 --> 0:21:05.239 Martavis Bryant, so that needs if you need to. That 0:21:05.280 --> 0:21:08.840 means we're down to Corey Coleman and Jamison Crowder, right. 0:21:09.200 --> 0:21:13.120 I think Jamison Crowder could be the play in this matchup. 0:21:13.119 --> 0:21:15.640 And let me tell you why I like Jamison Crowder 0:21:15.680 --> 0:21:18.199 because this matchup they're going up against the Rams. I 0:21:18.200 --> 0:21:20.200 think this is gonna be a shootout kind of game. 0:21:20.480 --> 0:21:23.320 I think the Washington football team is gonna throw in 0:21:23.400 --> 0:21:25.880 a voluminous way. I think Kirk Cousins is gonna put 0:21:25.880 --> 0:21:29.560 the ball up thirty times, and he has chemistry with 0:21:29.800 --> 0:21:32.119 Jamison Crowder. Okay. The only thing you gotta check for 0:21:32.160 --> 0:21:34.800 Crowder is he's dealing with a hip injury. He was 0:21:34.800 --> 0:21:38.760 a questionable tag week one, ultimately played right, So if 0:21:38.800 --> 0:21:42.080 he's playing, I like Jamison Crowder, I like Martavis Bryan. 0:21:42.320 --> 0:21:44.119 I think Corey Coleman is at the bottom of this 0:21:44.200 --> 0:21:47.400
