I think he's gonna be easily 30 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 3: a top ten fantasy back, maybe even top five. So 31 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 3: there's one silver lining and an otherwise wasteful weekend for me. 32 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,399 Speaker 2: Well, that is definitely good. It's been two crazy weeks 33 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:37,840 Speaker 2: in a row, and I know I feel like we 34 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 2: always say this is a crazy week. Have you ever 35 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 2: seen a week like this? But these have actually been 36 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 2: two crazy weeks. Double digit dogs winning games, Mike Carolina, Panthers, 37 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 2: overcoming a lot of things, Cam Newton obviously, so a 38 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 2: lot of things happening. NFL feels almost like a little 39 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 2: bit more random and a little bit more like, you know, 40 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 2: everyone's game. Maybe not everyone, maybe not if you're the 41 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 2: Jets of the Lions, but a lot of teams they 42 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 2: got tied, right, Samantha, I know Nauji Towris didn't even 43 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 2: know you could tie, so it must be nice. Well, anyway, 44 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:16,799 Speaker 2: we will just jump right into our twenty one questions. 45 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,800 Speaker 2: So the first question is what year did you start 46 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 2: playing fantasy and did you win your first league. 47 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 3: I did not win my first league, but I started 48 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 3: playing fantasy football in nineteen ninety five, believe it or not, 49 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 3: with some friends at a pizza joint in Champagne, Illinois 50 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 3: that I played with. 51 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:36,080 Speaker 1: We used to do it by hand. 52 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 3: I was a league commissioner and I would be using 53 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 3: like a twenty eight eight connection on Sunday nights, waiting 54 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:44,640 Speaker 3: for an eternity for the stats to load. I remember 55 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,799 Speaker 3: those days. A broadband just changed my life, Samantha, let 56 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:49,919 Speaker 3: me tell you, because once you got into the high 57 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 3: speed internet connections and commissioner services and all that jazz. 58 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 3: And you're a young woman, so you may have no 59 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:58,239 Speaker 3: idea of what I'm talking about. But you know, back 60 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 3: in those times, it was like a lot of goes 61 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 3: toward is slow. 62 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: It's like Benny Snell slow what it was all said 63 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 1: and done. 64 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 3: So it would take me hours on end just to 65 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 3: tally up, and I physically call people over the phone 66 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 3: be like, hey, here are the results. 67 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 1: This is how you did. 68 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 3: I remember it took Barry Sanders with my first pick, 69 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 3: so that worked out well. And I had Jeff George. 70 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 3: I went to University Illinois, and I love guys with 71 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 3: mullet and mustache combinations. When I ask me why, and 72 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:28,080 Speaker 3: he had outstanding one. So I remember fondly my first 73 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 3: year in fantasy, though it did not finish on a 74 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 3: high note. 75 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 2: Well, I love stories like this, even though I cannot 76 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 2: necessarily necessarily relate to them. They are super wholesome. Do 77 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 2: you still play in that league right now? 78 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 3: No, that thing blew up a long time ago. But 79 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 3: I do play in a local league they rig Range Invitational. 80 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: It is a salary. 81 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 3: Cap slash auction format that I've been doing for god 82 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 3: I know, twenty years, and we have kind of the 83 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 3: same core of guys that are in it. Some have 84 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 3: fallen by the wayside, but for the most part, there's 85 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 3: a good seven or rate that are OG's in that league. 86 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 3: And now that I'm back in town, we got together 87 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 3: had a huge, spectacular blowout in the basement. It was 88 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 3: a blur after about thirty players were you know, were 89 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 3: thrown out in the beginning of the draft because there 90 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,839 Speaker 3: was a lot of beverages flowing. I'll say that much. 91 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 2: That is hilarious. That is a really fun story, all right, 92 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,799 Speaker 2: What are the best and worst parts about playing fantasy 93 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 2: football for you? 94 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 3: Well, I mean the best parts, to be honest with you, 95 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:29,719 Speaker 3: are probably the worst parts for a lot of people. 96 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 3: I love the randomness of it all, the unpredictability of it. 97 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,279 Speaker 3: You know, there's surprises that lurk around every single corner. 98 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 3: You know, you look at a guy like Ramandri Stevenson 99 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 3: and you know, just in near term, because you know 100 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 3: it's fresh on the mind. You know, nobody wants to 101 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 3: try to get into the treacherous mind to Bill Belichick. 102 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 3: I call him Bill Beezelcheck because I think he is 103 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 3: devilish in many ways, and you know, he's untrustworthy, and 104 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:56,600 Speaker 3: you know, you got to put your wavebels out there 105 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 3: on the line. And we weren't really sure what Stevenson 106 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 3: was going to this past weekend. But if you, if 107 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 3: you had the confidence and or maybe you were just 108 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 3: desperate enough, you threw them in your lineup. You know, 109 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 3: one hundred and plus total yards on twenty four touches, 110 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 3: a couple of touchdowns out of nowhere. That's the kind 111 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 3: of stuff I love. And I love the stories of 112 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,359 Speaker 3: the undrafted free agents that hit it big, or the 113 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 3: late round picks in the NFL that hit it big, 114 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 3: like an Elijah Mitchell right now. You know, we're all 115 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 3: talking of Trey Sermon back in August, and you know, 116 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 3: Kyle shanahan' zigo all the rest of us zagged, and 117 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:34,119 Speaker 3: Mitchell's been indispensable for fantasy purposes. So that's the best 118 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:36,600 Speaker 3: part for me. Uh, the worst part of the injuries. 119 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,840 Speaker 3: You know, those just you know you can't see them coming. 120 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 3: It creates so much chaos and upheaval. I'm speaking as 121 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 3: somebody who was a Derrick Henry enthusiast who had him on. 122 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 3: I don't know a multitude of rosters. We're rocking, we're rolling, 123 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 3: and then the train derailed and it's like, all right. 124 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 3: You could say, well, why did you have his handcuff? Well, 125 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,280 Speaker 3: we had no idea his handcuff be Well, we still 126 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,359 Speaker 3: don't really know. We're working through that, isn't the ancient blood. 127 00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 3: Adrian Peterson is a Dionta foreman who was signed off 128 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 3: the trash heap with a little Jeremy McNichols mixed in. 129 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 3: I mean again, I guess it speaks to the randomness, 130 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 3: which I should like, but it what pertains to me 131 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 3: and I'm crushing in my fantasy league, and then the 132 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 3: injury and. 133 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: Crushes my soul by taking out my superstar. 134 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 2: That sucks, Dereck Henry injury, it definitely sol crushing. I 135 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 2: was just going to ask you if you were over 136 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 2: leveraged and Derreck Henry shares this season certainly disappointing and 137 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 2: to your point, I love that. A couple of weeks ago, 138 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 2: the biggest topic was like should we roster Adrian Peterson 139 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 2: or Jeremy McNichols, And the answer was neither, so right, exactly. 140 00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 2: Definitely a lot of randomness and Ramandre Stevenson. I actually 141 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:52,280 Speaker 2: did start him in two leagues, which, ah, yeah, I'm 142 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 2: gonna I'm gonna just be honest and honest. He's important. 143 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,600 Speaker 2: I'm gonna be honest that those teams stink. So that's 144 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 2: why I even had him on my team at the time. 145 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,839 Speaker 2: But it happens, and yeah, I mean in that sense, 146 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,719 Speaker 2: the randomness worked out for me. All right. Jumping into 147 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 2: the actual football stuff, We're going to kick it off 148 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 2: with a quick segment called the burn Book, which is 149 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 2: of course a meanreel's reference. So as fantasy managers, it's 150 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 2: so easy to have recency bias, especially if the player 151 00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 2: has burned us, either due to injuries or a bad week. 152 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 2: So I'm going to run through five players, and I'd 153 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 2: like you to briefly tell us how constant you are 154 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 2: on that player moving forward, or if they're in your 155 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 2: burn book. So our first question is Aaron Rodgers. So 156 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 2: I'm not a crazy person. I'm not asking if you're 157 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 2: burning him completely. But and the Packers did pick up 158 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 2: a win in this game, but Rogers didn't throw a 159 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 2: single touchdown. Completed twenty three of thirty seven for two 160 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 2: hundred ninety two yards and zero touchdowns, one interception. It's 161 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 2: his second straight appearance with under twenty fantasy points. Is 162 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 2: he maybe burned out of that must start matchup proof 163 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 2: tier though, I mean. 164 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 1: I think it's debatable right now. 165 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 3: And you know I'm a matchup advocate, and you know 166 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 3: he had his one in paper matchup against the Yadam 167 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 3: But that game just it was rancid from start to finish. 168 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 3: Just a future performance by both quarterbacks really just odd 169 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 3: as well. I mean Russell Wilson not so much. We 170 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 3: knew there was gonna be some accumulator Russ. There were 171 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 3: the questions about his gripping ability with the finger and 172 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 3: his ability just to throw the ball accurately. 173 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 1: You know, him saying, oh. 174 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 3: I work nineteen hours a day to get back and shape. 175 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: Dude, it's a finger. Maybe you should have been you know, 176 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 1: reading the. 177 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 3: Defense is better on the scouting report then you know, 178 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 3: working out with little you know, thumb war finger exercises. 179 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 1: I don't know. It didn't work out for they're. 180 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 2: Playing Madden or something, and that's the thing. 181 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, the deadliest weapon of the Russell's got 182 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 3: right now or his legs. That's about it. So you know, 183 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,439 Speaker 3: for me, I'm you know, I'm gonna give Aaron Rodgers 184 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 3: a pass. It was an odd week with the circumstances, 185 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 3: you know, obviously revolving around the controversial statements that he 186 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:52,599 Speaker 3: made and the backlash that he suffered from that and 187 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,319 Speaker 3: not being a practice. I mean, he basically colding and 188 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,559 Speaker 3: came in cold in a very cold environment which he's 189 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,200 Speaker 3: used to, and delivered very chilli results in the end. 190 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 3: He got to remember he had six games, actually was 191 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:07,719 Speaker 3: seven games prior in a row of multi touchdown performances. 192 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 3: He's going to get back to that starting this week, 193 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 3: and it's Minnesota, and he's got my bears on the 194 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 3: horizon and they're terrible, so he'll be just fine. 195 00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 1: I'm staying the cores. I'm not put them in the 196 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 1: burn book. 197 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 3: I would trust Aaron Rodgers this week and every week 198 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 3: movie forward. 199 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:24,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you have to give Aaron Rodgers a 200 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:29,719 Speaker 2: pass just from you know, his coaching staff, his upside. 201 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:33,119 Speaker 2: I am certainly not taking him out of my lineups, 202 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 2: all right. The next guy we're going to talk about 203 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 2: is Jerry Judy. Since returning from his injury in Week one, 204 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 2: he's been largely tepid for fantasy purposes, maybe not totally 205 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 2: his fault, but caught six of nine targets for forty 206 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 2: eight yards last week and now has the buy. So 207 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 2: I want to know kind of what your rest of 208 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:53,199 Speaker 2: season outlook on Jerry Judy is and maybe burning him, 209 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 2: possibly just due to the Broncos offense. 210 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 3: It's a whole oh yeah, the Broncos. Jekyl and Hyde, 211 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 3: I mean, definition of it. Right, You go and you 212 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:05,720 Speaker 3: clauber the Cowboys, you deeppant the Cowboys, and then you 213 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 3: turn around and deepant yourselves at home like it is. 214 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 3: It's just a bizarre set of circumstances. I don't know 215 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 3: what version you're gonna get week in week out. You know, 216 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:19,959 Speaker 3: Teddy two gloves is really indecipherable of what he brings 217 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 3: the table. So I think Jerry Judy is a wide 218 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,080 Speaker 3: receiver three likely rest of the season. I'm actually more 219 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 3: concerned about Courtland Sutton since Jerry Judy's return. But you know, 220 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 3: Judy still getting the volume. He's consistently getting six receptions 221 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 3: in the game. He's done that at all but one 222 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:35,839 Speaker 3: contest so far this season. And you look at the 223 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 3: rest of the season schedule, Samantha, you know there's some 224 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 3: nice matchups in there. Kansas City, you got on the horizon, Detroit, 225 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,199 Speaker 3: Cincinnati's got all kinds of issues right now in that secondary. 226 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 1: That's the first round of the Fantasy Playoffs. Vegas. 227 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,560 Speaker 3: He saw him get picked apart on Sunday Night Football, 228 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:54,960 Speaker 3: resurrecting Patrick Mahomes. You know, so there's some nice matchups 229 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 3: that he can exploit. I'm gonna stay the course of Judy. 230 00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 3: I'm not gonna go overboard, but wide receiver three to 231 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 3: twelve teen league sounds about right for me. 232 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I would definitely put him in that tier. And 233 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,199 Speaker 2: I think that many managers can't afford to burn him 234 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 2: quite yet, so I am leaving him in at least 235 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 2: on my bench in a lot of lineups. All Right, 236 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 2: the next we're going to talk about a guy that 237 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 2: really really started out hot had but just it's Mike Williams, 238 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 2: and he has seriously fallen off a cliff since that 239 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 2: crazy start, has not crusted the double digit Fantasy mark 240 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:30,560 Speaker 2: since peak five. Was another disappointing game against the Vikings 241 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 2: this week with just five points in half PPR. Does 242 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,640 Speaker 2: Williams belong in managers burn books? 243 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 3: I am concerned because we have a pattern of an 244 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,960 Speaker 3: aptitude here with Mike Williams. And you know, it's just 245 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,320 Speaker 3: he's out of rhythm right now with Justin Herbert, and 246 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 3: there's some concentration issues there as well. I mean, he 247 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 3: dropped a touchdown this last weekend would have been an 248 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 3: easy six. 249 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,319 Speaker 1: He was wide ass open, botched it. 250 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 3: You know what happened, and you know, but this is 251 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 3: four games in a row now where he he's just 252 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 3: not getting it done. I mean, since week six, he's 253 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 3: wide receiver sixty one in Fantasy total points scored and 254 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 3: a half point PPR setting over that stretch, just a 255 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,679 Speaker 3: fifty two point six percon catch rate. You know, the 256 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,199 Speaker 3: good news is he's still seeing a pretty high red 257 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 3: zone share. He's got a red zone targets over that 258 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 3: stretch again since week six, So the opportunities are there. 259 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 3: He just needs to have a carp A DM moment. 260 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,559 Speaker 3: He needs to seize it again, get that confidence back up. 261 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 3: I don't know when it's gonna come, but I'm gonna 262 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 3: bench him until further notice. He has got to regain 263 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 3: my trust because he has now fallen outside of that 264 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 3: circle of trust. 265 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's definitely outside of the circle of trust for 266 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,320 Speaker 2: me too. You know, I don't know if you're also 267 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 2: in Scott Fish. I assume because everyone is in the 268 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:46,680 Speaker 2: Scott Fish League. So I thought I had a great 269 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 2: team with Christian McCaffrey as my first round pick and 270 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 2: Mike Williams, who I thought was like such a great 271 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 2: late round fight, and of course this team has gone 272 00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 2: so off the rails. So I just I can't tell 273 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:01,839 Speaker 2: if that was just one of those like weird early 274 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 2: season blips, or if this is like maybe he can 275 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 2: kind of turn it around last week not this week. 276 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 2: Week nine, they were they had like three tight ends 277 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 2: that had touchdowns, and I was like, could just one 278 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 2: of those go to Mike Williams or something like who 279 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 2: are these guys that are getting touchdowns? So it's been 280 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:25,040 Speaker 2: definitely a little frustrating, especially if you know you were 281 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 2: relying on him, like I was, all Right, the next 282 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 2: govern talk about is Adrian Peterson, but it's kind of 283 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 2: more of a question about the Titans backfield at large, 284 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,599 Speaker 2: which we alluded to at the beginning. Peterson found the 285 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 2: end zone in week nine, albeit on a very impressive 286 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:42,680 Speaker 2: two point one yards per carry, posted just three Fantasy 287 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 2: points in week ten, behind Zanto Foreman, who really just 288 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 2: looked better than both Peterson and McNichols. So my question 289 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,440 Speaker 2: kind of is does this entire backfield belong to the 290 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 2: burn book or is there someone that you are trusting 291 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:56,040 Speaker 2: going well? 292 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:58,559 Speaker 1: And Peterson he's a cuckoos. 293 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,719 Speaker 3: He's done point one one yards have to contact per 294 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 3: attempt these last couple of games, one misstackle forced uh 295 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 3: and eighteen rush attempts. I mean that says at all. 296 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:10,839 Speaker 3: I know, it's a small sample size. You know he 297 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 3: heard of the broadcast too over the weekend. It's like, oh, well, 298 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 3: he's still got that spin move. Okay, I mean he 299 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 3: might spin off a guy, but he's getting tackled by 300 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 3: the next guy, probably for like a. 301 00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 1: One inch gain. It's just not getting it done in 302 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 1: the trenches. 303 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 3: Deonta Foreman is eleven years younger than him, He's got 304 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 3: far more juice in the legs. He is a more 305 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 3: effective producer in the past game, evidenced by the two 306 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 3: catches for forty eight yards. 307 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:34,080 Speaker 1: Uh in week ten. 308 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 3: And I think moving forward, you're gonna see Foreman start 309 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 3: really gaining the upper hand here. I think he's gonna 310 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 3: get inwhere between thirteen and fifteen touches per game. And Samantha, Samantha, 311 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 3: you know what narrative we got coming up? Well, you know, 312 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 3: is Foreman in the RB two conversation and deeper formats? 313 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 1: Absolutely he is, And. 314 00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 3: Jeremy McNichols will still plant him occasionally on third downs. 315 00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 3: But I like what the former two thousand yard rusher 316 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 3: at the University of Texas is doing. Though nobody at 317 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 3: the University of Texas right now likes their current product 318 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 3: because they lost the Kansas over the weekend. 319 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 1: Yes, canalls brutal basketball and. 320 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely rudely, yeah, I agree with you of the 321 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 2: three guys, I would say Adrian Peterson is the one 322 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 2: that I'm least excited about. I think maybe we just 323 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 2: made too much about the volume. But I had concerns 324 00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 2: right after Henry went down. I was like, I feel 325 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 2: like fray Bell's just going to make this a messy backfield, 326 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 2: kind of similar to the way like the Ravens backfield 327 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 2: is basically unusable for fantasy purposes after they lost like 328 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 2: five running backs in the preseason. So he's definitely been 329 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 2: less impressive. I think McNichols maybe more incorporated in game 330 00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 2: scripts where they're may be more competitive or trailing more. 331 00:15:56,880 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 2: But in these game scripts with against Houston, I don't 332 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 2: see it happening. So Danta Foreman is the guy for me, 333 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 2: certainly a good waiver wire target this week. 334 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 1: All right. 335 00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 2: The final guy we're going to talk about in the 336 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 2: Bird Book is Adulton Shultz. So he briefly looked like 337 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 2: he could be a league winner early on, but he 338 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 2: had another quiet game in what should have been a 339 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 2: positive Week ten matchup against the Falcons, caught just one 340 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 2: of two targets for fourteen yards. He just seems to 341 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 2: be down the priority list now behind Ceede Lamb, Amari Cooper, 342 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 2: Tony Pollard, and even Michael Gallup who is back now 343 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 2: returned for the first week. Since Week one, Schultz has 344 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 2: just eleven Fantasy points in half PPR in the last 345 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 2: three games combined. So are we burning him out of 346 00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 2: the tight end one here? 347 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 1: Yeah? I think you have to. 348 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 3: And you know, Titan is a desolate wasteland right now, 349 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 3: there's no doubt about it. And by the way, I 350 00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 3: do like Adam Troutman, if you're desperately seeking some assistance 351 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 3: there his arrow is ascending right now, while schultzz is 352 00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 3: pointing in the opposite direction. 353 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 1: I think a lot of has to do with Michael Galb. 354 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 1: We all feared this. You know, once Gallup would come 355 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 1: back off. 356 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:08,160 Speaker 3: Of injured reserve, you know you're spreading the love even 357 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 3: more now for Dak Gallup played brilliantly. By the way, 358 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,680 Speaker 3: I had a toe tap on the sideline, hate little vintage. 359 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 3: He runs clean routes, he's explosive down the field, he's 360 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 3: unafraid going across the middle. 361 00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:21,000 Speaker 1: That's a lot of the stuff that Dalton Schultz does. 362 00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,200 Speaker 3: So with Amari Cooper there, with Ceedee Lamb there, with 363 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:26,399 Speaker 3: Gallup now back in the fold, you know, utilize the 364 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 3: running backs in the past game as well. Yeah, Schultz, 365 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 3: I think is on the outside looking in of the 366 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:36,200 Speaker 3: QB one class and twelve team leagues. Moving forward, Rank 367 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:37,760 Speaker 3: these as a follow up. 368 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 2: Rank these three tight ends Dan Arnold, Tyler Conklin, and 369 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 2: Dalton Schultz. Rest of season. 370 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:47,359 Speaker 3: Your order is correct, it actually goes Dan Arnold first. 371 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:50,640 Speaker 3: For me, Hey, Arnold is going to continue to get 372 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,160 Speaker 3: it done. I mean, look, Trevor Lawrence, we all thought 373 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 3: it was going to be a lock for offensive Rookie 374 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,159 Speaker 3: of the Year, and he has had his struggles to 375 00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:01,719 Speaker 3: stay the least. But Jacksonville's rangely is gaining confidence. An 376 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 3: urban Meyer coach team, I call urban Meyer the raging 377 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 3: Nincompoop because it's exactly what he is, and he's such 378 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:11,080 Speaker 3: an ill fit for the NFL. But they're starting to 379 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:15,360 Speaker 3: show some competitive spirit here, playing some tight games, and 380 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:16,719 Speaker 3: a lot of that has to do with the fact that, 381 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 3: you know, Dan Arnold has been an integral part of 382 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 3: this offense, whether native game scripts, positive game scripts, competitive games. 383 00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 1: That is here to stay now. 384 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 3: Conkland, you know, I had the two touchdown performance against 385 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 3: the Chargers over the weekend. He has benefited from some 386 00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:36,679 Speaker 3: very generous matchups specifically to the position, so you know, 387 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 3: I think it's going to be more of a roller 388 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:42,359 Speaker 3: coaster ride, more unpredictable for him rest of season, where 389 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 3: I think, you know, Dan Arnold is a fixture as 390 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:48,240 Speaker 3: probably a seven eight target per game guy here down 391 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 3: the stretch. 392 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 2: I love what Arnold has done because you know, we 393 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 2: always talk about the tight end position being so touchdown dependent, 394 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:58,400 Speaker 2: and Arnold's doing it without any touchdowns zero touchdowns this year. 395 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 2: But he has such a great floor because of the targets, 396 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:04,400 Speaker 2: and he's just putting a production even in difficult matchups 397 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:07,240 Speaker 2: like against the Bills. So I have been very pleased 398 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 2: with what I have seen from him. All Right, that'll 399 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 2: do it for the burn book. Next to here on 400 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 2: the Fantasy Flex is our elite entry segment, where I 401 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 2: dive into the prize Fixed at to build some entries. 402 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 2: I'll identify some markets I like, you build your own 403 00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 2: prize fixed centuries and all of us have a little 404 00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 2: fun and make some money. So today I'm going to 405 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:27,359 Speaker 2: look at four week eleven quarterback plays on Prize Fix. 406 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,720 Speaker 2: The first play I like is Mac Jones under two 407 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 2: hundred and thirty and a half passing yards on the 408 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:35,880 Speaker 2: road or versus the Falcons death taxes and Mac Jones unders. 409 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,919 Speaker 2: We are now on week four of hitting these unders, 410 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 2: so I'm going to keep it rolling against the Falcons, 411 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:45,159 Speaker 2: which may seem weird given how exploitable and exposed this 412 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 2: Falcons defense has looked. The thing is, even in games 413 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,680 Speaker 2: where the Patriots tack on a ton of points, Jones 414 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 2: just doesn't put up a lot of yards. This is 415 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:57,480 Speaker 2: a low volume offense. Week seven, the Patriots scored fifty 416 00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 2: four points against the Jets and Jones had two hundre 417 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 2: and seventeen yards. Week ten, the Patriots scored forty five 418 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:07,120 Speaker 2: points and Jones had just one hundred and ninety eight yards. 419 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 2: I think they'll handle this Falcons team pretty easily, and 420 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 2: I think they're going to lean on this run game, 421 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 2: which has looked super strong even without Damien Harris there. 422 00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 2: You know, Ramandra Stevenson had a great breakout game one 423 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 2: hundred yards and two touchdowns. So this is also a 424 00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:24,359 Speaker 2: Thursday night game, so I really really like the under 425 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 2: on the passing yards for Jones. The next play like 426 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 2: is Tuatangovailoa over two hundred and twenty and a half 427 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:33,479 Speaker 2: passing yards on the road versus the Jets. What an 428 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 2: odd situation last week that Tua, who is dealing with 429 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:40,119 Speaker 2: a finger injury, is healthy enough to dress but not 430 00:20:40,200 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 2: healthy enough to start. And then he actually is healthy 431 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 2: enough to sub in for Dakobe Brissett, and after he 432 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 2: came in for Prissette, he completed eight of thirteen attempts 433 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,720 Speaker 2: for one hundred and fifty eight yards and tacked on 434 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,679 Speaker 2: a rushing touchdown. He has been named the starter this 435 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 2: week as of a Monday, and that would seem to 436 00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:00,040 Speaker 2: indicate that his finger is healed and he gets a 437 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,640 Speaker 2: great matchup against the Jets this week, who are allowing 438 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 2: two hundred and eighty three passing yards per game, which 439 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 2: ranks second worst in the NFL. So I like him 440 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 2: to go over there. Another player that I like is 441 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:14,480 Speaker 2: ad Justin Fields over one hundred and seventy nine and 442 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:17,359 Speaker 2: a half passing yards at home versus the Ravens. I 443 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:19,359 Speaker 2: get it, we don't love Fields as a passer, but 444 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:21,680 Speaker 2: he did post two of his best games to date 445 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 2: in weeks eight and nine. He tossed multiple touchdowns in 446 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 2: Week eight against the forty nine Ers for the first 447 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 2: time this year and broke one hundred rushing yards in 448 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 2: that game, and then in Week nine he posted a 449 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 2: career high two hundred and ninety one passing yards against 450 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 2: the Steelers. He's going to be well rested coming off 451 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,880 Speaker 2: of the Bears. Week ten buy to face the Ravens defense, 452 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 2: which is allowed an NFL high two hundred eight three 453 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 2: and a half passing yards per game, So I love 454 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:50,000 Speaker 2: fields to go over this paltry number. The final player 455 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 2: that I like is Taylor Heineke under two hundred forty 456 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 2: five and a half passing yards on the road versus Carolina. 457 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,679 Speaker 2: Heinikey and the Washington football team entered the week as 458 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:02,199 Speaker 2: double digit dogs, and we're very impressive against the Buccaneers. 459 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 2: Heinike completed twenty six to thirty two attempts, were two 460 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 2: hundred fifty six yards in a touchdown, and tacked on 461 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 2: three rushes for fifteen yards. That said, Tampa's secondary ranks 462 00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 2: near the bottom of the NFL, and he gets a 463 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,199 Speaker 2: matchup on the polar opposite end of the spectrum against 464 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 2: Carolina this week, who are allowing an NFL best one 465 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,639 Speaker 2: hundred and seventy four passing yards per game. So their 466 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 2: secondary has been just ridiculous. I know Stefan Gilmore is 467 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 2: a little banged up, but he could still play in 468 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,879 Speaker 2: this game, so I think that Heinike will struggle in 469 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 2: this tough matchup. All right. That is our elite entry 470 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:38,880 Speaker 2: for today, going with Matt Jones under two hundred thirty 471 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 2: and half passing yards on the road versus the Falcons 472 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:44,119 Speaker 2: to a Tongue of Biloa over two hundred twenty and 473 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:47,200 Speaker 2: a half passing yards on the road versus the Jets, 474 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 2: Justin Fields over one hundred and seventy nine and a 475 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:53,439 Speaker 2: half passing yards at home versus the Ravens and Taylor 476 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:55,920 Speaker 2: Heineke under two hundred forty five and a half passing 477 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,879 Speaker 2: yards on the road versus Carolina.

But anyway, the reason why is full send 507 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 2: is kind of like an extreme sports term, which means 508 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:26,359 Speaker 2: like you're going for it, you're going head first, like 509 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 2: you love it. And then CAP is obviously more of 510 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 2: a gen Z term that's like, that's crap, that's not real, 511 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 2: that's BS. So basically it's the opposite of the last segment. 512 00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 2: I'm going to give you five players who's a values 513 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 2: are on the rise, and I want to know, are 514 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:42,639 Speaker 2: you sending it on this player or is that cap? 515 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 2: So the first player, Cam Newton, My Cam Newton was 516 00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 2: surprisingly active for this week after getting signed by the Panthers, 517 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:53,439 Speaker 2: although PJ Walker got the start, a determination that was 518 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 2: made before Newton was signed, and he definitely made the 519 00:24:57,560 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 2: most of his usage. I mean scored Dwice on a 520 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:03,600 Speaker 2: first two snabs. Given the salary that he was paid, 521 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:06,879 Speaker 2: I think it's obviously unlikely that Newton rides the bench 522 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:10,439 Speaker 2: for even more than one week. So my question is 523 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 2: are we going full send on Newton as a potential 524 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:17,120 Speaker 2: streamer as early as next week against the football team 525 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 2: whose defense is very Swiss cheesy or is that cap? 526 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 3: No? No, I mean, given that qualification, the stream qualification, 527 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 3: it's full send for me. 528 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:26,800 Speaker 1: I mean, here's the thing about Cam Newton. 529 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:29,119 Speaker 3: You know, everybody talks about how inaccurate he was the 530 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 3: New England Patriots, but the advanced analytics really don't bear 531 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:31,920 Speaker 3: that out. 532 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 1: You know, pro football focused. 533 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 3: He was QB thirteen and justic completion percentage last season, 534 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,400 Speaker 3: Helly was top five and deep ball completion percentage. Now 535 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 3: more limited sample size in that ladder category. But where 536 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:47,400 Speaker 3: does Cam's value really reside. It resides with his legs, 537 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 3: and he is the most efficient, you could argue, the 538 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 3: most effective runner inside the five yard line. We're regardless, 539 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 3: We're regardless of position. You know, he's got the ball 540 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 3: in his hands inside the five calls zone number, he's 541 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:02,920 Speaker 3: falling fort he can bounce it outside. It's got enough speed. 542 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 3: You saw that in Arizona. He's back. He's back, He's 543 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 3: back at all of it's, you know, glorious celebration. And 544 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 3: I think here are a lot of people in fantasyland, 545 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:14,760 Speaker 3: maybe in one of them. I'm in a super flex 546 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,280 Speaker 3: and two quarterback league. I picked up Cam everywhere last week. 547 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 3: When I heard the news, then I saw the contract, 548 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:21,720 Speaker 3: that was like, oh, hell yeah, that cat's going to 549 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,199 Speaker 3: be starting to rest the season, no doubt about it. 550 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:26,200 Speaker 1: So you know, you got two teams on bike coming 551 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:27,159 Speaker 1: up here in week eleven. 552 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 3: Teddy two Gloves gonna be on a one week siesta. Also, 553 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:34,200 Speaker 3: Matthew Stafford on a one week s esta. So if 554 00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:36,879 Speaker 3: you're a Stafford manager and you're looking for somebody to 555 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 3: plug and play, Cam Newton against the low PSI deflated 556 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:44,440 Speaker 3: fighting footballs of Washington, who have allowed the most fantasy points. 557 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,120 Speaker 3: As you mentioned to the quarterback position. He could throw 558 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 3: for a buck eighty five, he could throw for a touchdown, 559 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 3: he could raise the floor with forty plus in the ground, 560 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 3: and as well as he normally does, score six with 561 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 3: his legs. So I think Cam Newton is going to 562 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:00,920 Speaker 3: be right there in the top fifteen com conversation week 563 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 3: in and week out. 564 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 1: Henceforward. 565 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:04,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, you just really love about Cam. I mean I 566 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 2: love a lot of things about Cam. I love every Actually, 567 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 2: I just love everything about him because I love his style. 568 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:13,400 Speaker 2: I love just everything. But you know, he's got more 569 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:16,879 Speaker 2: weapons obviously than he had last year with the Patriots. 570 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:18,840 Speaker 2: I think that's pretty safe to say. With DJ Moore 571 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 2: and Christian McCaffrey, and so I think that that supporting 572 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 2: cast is going to really help him. And then I 573 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:26,920 Speaker 2: think that there's always going to be those design runs 574 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 2: and packages for him that it's going to give you 575 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:32,880 Speaker 2: fantasy value. He's going to vulture touchdowns away from Christian McCaffrey, 576 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 2: which is going to be really frustrating in a way, 577 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:39,919 Speaker 2: but certainly good if you want to roster him. He 578 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 2: could really I think, win people some seasons. So there 579 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 2: will be some off weeks, but in a lot of 580 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:47,360 Speaker 2: times it's going to be ugly, like that's the thing, 581 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 2: Like it's not the prettiest. Sometimes it's like watching I 582 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:53,639 Speaker 2: don't know, Jalen Hurts, but you know, they get a 583 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 2: job done. They get the job done for fantasy, and 584 00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:58,880 Speaker 2: that's all that matters. All right. We have already talked 585 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 2: about from Stevenson, but I want to talk about him again. 586 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 2: The Truthers can obviously rejoice now after his long awaited 587 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,680 Speaker 2: breakout in Week ten with Damien Harris a sideline in 588 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:12,879 Speaker 2: the concussion protocol, he saw twenty carries for one hundred 589 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:14,959 Speaker 2: yards and a pair of touchdowns. I certainly don't want 590 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:18,639 Speaker 2: to detract from this spantas like this fantastic performance, but 591 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:22,040 Speaker 2: his role in subsequent outlook is somewhat contingent on the 592 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 2: game script and Harris being out. That said, Bill Belichick 593 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:30,199 Speaker 2: is notoriously unpredictable, as you mentioned earlier, So when it 594 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,119 Speaker 2: comes to running backs that could have maybe work in 595 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:36,360 Speaker 2: Stevenson's favor, are we going full send on Stevenson as 596 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 2: a potential flexplay even if Harris is healthy next week 597 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 2: or is trusting any Patriots running back not named Damien 598 00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 2: Harris cap Well. 599 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:48,280 Speaker 3: Look it's the deep fried falcon, Samantha, it's done. I mean, 600 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:51,480 Speaker 3: Atlanta showed their true colors against the Dallas Cowboys. 601 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 1: They're going to be down, Corderyl Patterson. 602 00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 3: They are atrocious, they really are, and defensively as well. 603 00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 3: So bull send with my guy. Rah Rah rah rah 604 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 3: Rah Ramandre Stevenson. H credit to Brandon Fundson for the 605 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 3: bad romance reference there, but we're huge fans of them. 606 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:11,479 Speaker 3: We talk about him on the Serious XEM Show all 607 00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 3: the time. You know, it really impressed me too, you 608 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,080 Speaker 3: know this last week. Besides the volume, you know, you 609 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:17,640 Speaker 3: look under the hood, it's the fact that he had 610 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 3: three point two zero yards out of contact for attempt. 611 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 1: So he was that battering Ram. 612 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 3: He was that arm tackle busting running back that we 613 00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:29,600 Speaker 3: saw in the preseason with the first team live and 614 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,480 Speaker 3: in living color, so you know against Atlanta that ranks 615 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 3: inside the top five and most Fantasy points. A lot 616 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,280 Speaker 3: of the running back position ew with Harris Back. I 617 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 3: think he's going to get anywhere between eleven and fourteen 618 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,000 Speaker 3: touches in this game, and that is enough for flexi 619 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 3: sexy appeals. So yeah, I'm gonna starting with confidence, and 620 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 3: I also have in a fourteen team league and he 621 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:48,720 Speaker 3: will be in my lineup. 622 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 1: You can make damn sure of that this week. 623 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 2: Well, that is really good to hear. Obviously, I thought 624 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 2: he looked great, and it's one of those things is 625 00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 2: like you can't put the GD back of the bottle 626 00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 2: like you after you've seen him do it, like I 627 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 2: feel like he has. They have to incorporate him, and 628 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 2: I just hope that he doesn't miss a meeting, wear 629 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:11,520 Speaker 2: the wrong color to upset Bill Belichick. Whatever, God for 630 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 2: Biggie fumbles and he's on waivers the next day. So 631 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 2: you know, we talked about the randomness. It's there. It's 632 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 2: it's especially there with the Patriots. But I am as 633 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:24,600 Speaker 2: full sound as I can be with him. All Right, 634 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 2: the next guy we're going to talk about, we've already 635 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 2: talked about this Jags offense, but someone else, Jamal Agnew. 636 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 2: It was a strange week for Agnew, who caught zero 637 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 2: passes on five targets against a Colt exploitable secondary, but 638 00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 2: then tally three carries for seventy nine yards in a 639 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 2: touchdown on the ground. Kind of just strange because the 640 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:45,240 Speaker 2: Colts run defense is pretty good, but they're kind of 641 00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:48,240 Speaker 2: using him. He's like everything we hoped Laviska Chanalt would 642 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:51,080 Speaker 2: be in this Erwin Meyer offense. I know it hurts 643 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 2: me too because I was like president of the Laviska 644 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 2: fan club. So my question is are we going to 645 00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:00,880 Speaker 2: still send on Agnew as a viable wide receiver three 646 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:02,760 Speaker 2: flex play rest of season? 647 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:07,680 Speaker 3: No, I'm capping that. Look, he is unreliable, he is untrustworthy. 648 00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 2: You know. 649 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 3: The Jets sweep action is great, you know, and I 650 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 3: think that's where he's most effective, and that's what you 651 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 3: saw this last week and him scoring a long touchdown 652 00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 3: against the Colts. But you know, the target share it's 653 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 3: just mediocre. You know, this doesn't really move the needle 654 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 3: for me. You know, he's got five targets or more 655 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 3: in four straight games, but it's just you know, a 656 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 3: bit up and down, and you know, for me, I 657 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:33,520 Speaker 3: need somebody that I could put my trust in on 658 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 3: a weekly basis at the flex and wide receiver th reposition. 659 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:38,520 Speaker 3: I think the better options that are out there, and 660 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 3: I just you know, I'm not going to, you know, 661 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 3: look at Jamal Agnue and just think, oh wow, this 662 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 3: is the week that he's all of a sudden gonna 663 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 3: get all these jets. Me, this is the week he's 664 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:51,000 Speaker 3: gonna get like seven eight targets. I'm confidently hitting that 665 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,520 Speaker 3: bamn button and submitting them in my lineup. I just 666 00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:57,240 Speaker 3: don't ever feel like I'm going to get that feeling. 667 00:31:57,480 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 3: But then again, I haven't felt warm and fuzzy about 668 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 3: a Jackson Jaguars since the Fred Taylor day, so it's 669 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:03,240 Speaker 3: been a minute. 670 00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 2: Is really funny. I will say that I started him 671 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 2: in two leagues. I know it was a little it 672 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:16,160 Speaker 2: was a little ballsy though. Bye weeks were just really 673 00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 2: hard on me. In one of my leagues, I had 674 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:20,600 Speaker 2: a whole, like, the whole bench was all bye bye 675 00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:23,520 Speaker 2: week guys. So I had to make some difficult calls. 676 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 2: But I was glad to see that. I mean, that's 677 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:27,560 Speaker 2: not the way I thought he was going to get 678 00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 2: it done. I was like, oh, this cult secondary is trash. 679 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 2: He'll definitely get it done for the air and then 680 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 2: zero zero catches. But yes, but to your point that 681 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 2: that's definitely not something that's a predictable thing week to week, 682 00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 2: So I am not necessarily projecting him as someone that 683 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 2: you can trust for fantasy. All Right. The next guy 684 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 2: we're going to talk about is Brian Edwards. He has 685 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:49,400 Speaker 2: like a fantasy darling. There are just guys that Fantasy 686 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 2: Twitter loves. After laying a goose egg in Week nine, 687 00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 2: he showed up caught three or four passes for eighty 688 00:32:57,080 --> 00:33:00,000 Speaker 2: eight yards and a touchdown, slightly edging out one hundred 689 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 2: and fro in terms of fantasy production. Renfro did see 690 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:06,960 Speaker 2: more targets and it's much more consistent in terms of production. 691 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:09,959 Speaker 2: How do you feel about Brian Edwards? Are you sending 692 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 2: it on him as a wide receiver three or is 693 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:14,600 Speaker 2: that cap? 694 00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 1: No, it's cap. 695 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:19,640 Speaker 3: Look, Brian Edwards another one of those unpredictable guys in 696 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 3: fantasy football. And there is a strange and bizarre love 697 00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 3: affair with Brian Edwards in the Fantasy Football committee. I've 698 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 3: never been part of that group think in regards to 699 00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:35,280 Speaker 3: this particular player. You know, look, I think we all 700 00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 3: fell in love with the bulging biceps that were just 701 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:40,520 Speaker 3: glistening in the summer sun when we're all just you know, 702 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:43,920 Speaker 3: thirsty for any kind of fantasy information that we could 703 00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:47,080 Speaker 3: have gotten like June, and people just automatically said, well, hey, 704 00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 3: Brian Edwards season, it was just like we saw Mike 705 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 3: Davis's thighs and our eyes popped out of our sockets, 706 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 3: were like, dude, that cat's going to the moon top five. 707 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:58,160 Speaker 3: You know, he's gonna be like the doge Coin of 708 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 3: running backs. But it's it's just not the case here 709 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:04,719 Speaker 3: with Brian Edwards. You know, no more than five targets 710 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 3: in a single game this season. That's really all the 711 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:08,360 Speaker 3: evidence that you need to have. Now he's got a 712 00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:11,600 Speaker 3: touchdown to the last three. Oftentimes you would talk about 713 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 3: a sweat session. It's it's playing him every week because 714 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:16,760 Speaker 3: generally speaking, he doesn't show up until like five minutes 715 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:17,800 Speaker 3: left in the fourth quarter. 716 00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:20,719 Speaker 1: And I'm really worried about this. 717 00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:23,879 Speaker 3: A Las Vegas Raiders offense as a whole, they were 718 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 3: humiliated on national television by a largely leaky Kansas City 719 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:33,520 Speaker 3: Chiefs defense Derek Carr was just discombobulated out of sorts. 720 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:37,759 Speaker 3: It was a frustrating game to watch with any kind 721 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:41,120 Speaker 3: of investment in this offense, with the exception of maybe Edwards, 722 00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:44,400 Speaker 3: and you know the schedule, he'll have his moments, but again, 723 00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:47,400 Speaker 3: pinpointing exactly when he's going to blow up is anyone's 724 00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:49,240 Speaker 3: best guest, So cap for me, I'm passing. 725 00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:53,200 Speaker 2: It's very frustrating to watch this Raiders offense because car 726 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:55,400 Speaker 2: at the beginning of the season was playing like MVP 727 00:34:55,560 --> 00:35:00,799 Speaker 2: caliber fall and obviously there have been numerous off field 728 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 2: destructions for them, so I don't think it's Brian Edwards 729 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 2: season quite yet. I'm not ready to go full send 730 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:09,440 Speaker 2: on that, all right. The last guy we're gonna talk 731 00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:12,480 Speaker 2: about is Tyler Conklin. We already kind of mentioned him. Yeah, 732 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:15,080 Speaker 2: popped off in Week ten with a pair of touchdowns 733 00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:17,840 Speaker 2: on just three catches in eleven yards, so the volume 734 00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:20,839 Speaker 2: is not necessarily impressive. So he has seen at least 735 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:23,160 Speaker 2: five targets and six of the last seven games, which 736 00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 2: is respectable for a tight end. Are we going fulls 737 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,880 Speaker 2: end on Conklin as a fringe Titan one? Whereas the 738 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,280 Speaker 2: lack of fall. You make this cap, Oh. 739 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,520 Speaker 3: God, knowing it's like a desolate landscape at tight end 740 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:40,759 Speaker 3: there's rolling tumbleweed and zombies roaming the planes. I mean, 741 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:43,920 Speaker 3: he's borderline. You know, I want to get you know, 742 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:46,759 Speaker 3: splinters the old sphincter with this one. But I'm going 743 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:50,239 Speaker 3: to say cap. And there's one reason, one reason why. 744 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:52,560 Speaker 1: You know, again, he was largely touched out a pin 745 00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:54,759 Speaker 1: in this last game, and he delivered. He scored out 746 00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 1: once but twice. Fantastic. 747 00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:58,479 Speaker 3: I had Tyler Conklin in that same fourteen team league 748 00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:01,440 Speaker 3: in which had Rmando Stevenson was a fantastic streaming option. 749 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:03,839 Speaker 3: And I was just playing the matchup because in charge 750 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 3: has largely been devoid against tight ends defensively this season. 751 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,319 Speaker 3: But you know, you look at the numbers, he's tight 752 00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 3: in thirty one Samantha. 753 00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:14,400 Speaker 1: And red zone target percentage that's on allurry. 754 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:18,319 Speaker 3: It's unappealing, it's unattractive, and you know it's just going to. 755 00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:19,240 Speaker 1: Be a function in the matchup. 756 00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:21,800 Speaker 3: And you look at the matchups remaining and none of 757 00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:25,759 Speaker 3: them really just stand out wonderfully on paper. You know, 758 00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 3: the best matchup he's got left against the La Rams 759 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:31,799 Speaker 3: that would be in week sixteen. They have a lot 760 00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:35,000 Speaker 3: of the thirteenth most fantasy points to the tied end position, 761 00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 3: everybody else outside of that, and many of them outside 762 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 3: the top twenty. So you know, I think his best 763 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:44,120 Speaker 3: days have already happened. And for me, again, I'd rather 764 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:47,480 Speaker 3: go with an Adam Trumpman. Yes, tied to Trevor Simeon 765 00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:52,160 Speaker 3: who has a Nootley arm. But you know, Conklin, I 766 00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:55,439 Speaker 3: think again, the best days are now behind him. 767 00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the touchdowns are a little deceiving. I 768 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:03,040 Speaker 2: would much they have Dan Arnold than a Conklin if 769 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:05,680 Speaker 2: you are looking on the waiver wire right now, all right, Rod, 770 00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 2: we have nine more rapid fire questions and we will 771 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,239 Speaker 2: get you out of here. So question thirteen is name 772 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 2: one player you just can't quit or you always find 773 00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 2: yourself making excuses for. 774 00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:18,799 Speaker 3: That's always a mandatory Montgomery, duh? For me, I mean 775 00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:22,000 Speaker 3: absolutely Daan Montgomery's my guy, my dude. I love him. 776 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:25,080 Speaker 3: Are there's some others, you know, for some weird, sick, 777 00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:25,919 Speaker 3: strange reason. 778 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:30,000 Speaker 1: I love Boston Scott as well, and for you and Jim, 779 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:31,359 Speaker 1: so that's he is well. 780 00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 3: I mean, look, I like kind of the short little guys. 781 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:35,400 Speaker 3: I can pick him up, put him in my pocket, 782 00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:38,640 Speaker 3: kind of carry him around. Boss Scott's one of those guys. 783 00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:41,520 Speaker 3: And I was always stranger with an apologist for Royce Freeman. 784 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 3: Maybe Royce Freeman season is going to happen in Houston. 785 00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:45,480 Speaker 1: It won't, but. 786 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:50,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, amazing, all right, Next question, predict when the Bears 787 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:52,840 Speaker 2: will win their next Super Bowl. You told me you 788 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 2: were a Bears fan before this. 789 00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:57,759 Speaker 3: So it'll be after my death, and I'm planning to 790 00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:01,120 Speaker 3: lead a very long line, Samantha. 791 00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:02,720 Speaker 1: It's not going to happen. 792 00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 3: Then again, I was a you know, I'm a Cubs fan, 793 00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 3: and I said, the Cubs are never going to win 794 00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:07,680 Speaker 3: a World Series in my lifetime either. It happened in 795 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:11,719 Speaker 3: twenty sixteen. I nearly died that night through the rain 796 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:15,239 Speaker 3: delay of the nervousness and all that. I don't you know, 797 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:18,360 Speaker 3: I have no idea. I will say this about my 798 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:21,440 Speaker 3: beloved Bears. We have found our quarterback and I am 799 00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:24,560 Speaker 3: excited for with the future holes with Justin Fields. When 800 00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:30,080 Speaker 3: we get Matt Nagy's horrible coaching ass out of the 801 00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:30,799 Speaker 3: Windy City. 802 00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:31,879 Speaker 1: It needs to happen. 803 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:35,240 Speaker 2: Now, fair enough, when you gave me this pessimistic answer. 804 00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:37,560 Speaker 2: I was curious if that was because you were low 805 00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 2: on fields. But it certainly seems like he is not 806 00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 2: the problem in that organization. All right, give us one 807 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:48,120 Speaker 2: Bears player who you think is underrated for fantasy. 808 00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, honestly, Khalil Herbert is really interesting to 809 00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:55,080 Speaker 3: me for his long term trajectory, particularly those people in 810 00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:57,080 Speaker 3: the dynasty leagues. He showed a lot and I did 811 00:38:57,120 --> 00:38:59,400 Speaker 3: some scouting on him and you know, among the you know, 812 00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:02,960 Speaker 3: lower tiered guys in the last NFL draft, his tape 813 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 3: really stood out. I mean, he's a great one cut 814 00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:07,640 Speaker 3: and go runner, fits a zone scheme to a tee 815 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:11,120 Speaker 3: excellent after initial contact, all that stuff, check check check check. 816 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:14,000 Speaker 3: It showed up on the field when given an opportunity. 817 00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:15,680 Speaker 3: And the other guy I think is really a sending 818 00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 3: right now is Cole Comet. Cole Comett is quickly becoming 819 00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:23,080 Speaker 3: the best friend of Justin Field. He's got great athletic 820 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 3: skill set and build, and I think his star is 821 00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:27,879 Speaker 3: only going too his sends. So those are two guys 822 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:29,880 Speaker 3: I'm really excited about the future for. We'll see if 823 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:34,120 Speaker 3: the Bears end up paying Montgomery after next season. But 824 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:36,480 Speaker 3: you know, they're in good hands with with Comet and 825 00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:38,839 Speaker 3: Herbert if Montgomery were to march on. Of course, justin 826 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:41,080 Speaker 3: Fields too being a center piece. So yeah, those are 827 00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:41,799 Speaker 3: two guys I like. 828 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:46,120 Speaker 2: Best think of underrated fantasy players. Was Joe Flacco ever elite? Yes? 829 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 2: Or no? 830 00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:49,920 Speaker 1: Oh hell no, not remotely close. He was the lead 831 00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:52,640 Speaker 1: for you know, a couple of playoffs stretches, that's it. 832 00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:55,840 Speaker 3: And then it became a thing with certain publications on 833 00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:59,000 Speaker 3: the internet and it just you know, it ran rampant 834 00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:02,600 Speaker 3: and became viral. No, not remotely elite. He should never 835 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:05,840 Speaker 3: sniff the Pro Football Hall of Fame in can't Ohio. 836 00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:10,800 Speaker 3: But yeah, Joe Flocco terribly mundane, will fully average. 837 00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:12,319 Speaker 1: Samantha fair enough. 838 00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:15,640 Speaker 2: Well. Based on your pessimism about the Bears, I assume 839 00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:18,320 Speaker 2: you don't think this is the year. So what needs 840 00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:21,160 Speaker 2: to do the Bears need to address during this year's draft? 841 00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:24,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, the secondary needs some help, and I like Jalen 842 00:40:24,120 --> 00:40:26,680 Speaker 3: Johnson a lot, But you know, some of the other 843 00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,600 Speaker 3: dbs are very much a work in progress. You know, 844 00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:31,919 Speaker 3: defensively they're not I get a whole lot in terms 845 00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:32,799 Speaker 3: of the pass rush game. 846 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:35,000 Speaker 1: Khalil Mack I think it's been a bit of a disappointment. 847 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:37,319 Speaker 3: You know, they need to get back to being the 848 00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 3: Black and Blue Bears where they would just rock them, 849 00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 3: sock them, Robot you in the mouth and they run 850 00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:45,279 Speaker 3: down your throat. The running down your throat part is 851 00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:48,160 Speaker 3: there with Bill Laser helping out, you know, within this 852 00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:52,279 Speaker 3: offensive scheme. And I think they've got enough weapons free 853 00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:54,759 Speaker 3: Alan Robinson. You know, he really should go somewhere else 854 00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:56,719 Speaker 3: where he actually has a passer and given the ball 855 00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:59,960 Speaker 3: consistently and maybe you know fields, with his growing confidence, 856 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:01,600 Speaker 3: we'll be able to do so down the stretch. And 857 00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:04,480 Speaker 3: they look good right before the bye week. And I 858 00:41:04,560 --> 00:41:06,640 Speaker 3: like Darnell Mooney quite a bit. And I mentioned Comet 859 00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:10,600 Speaker 3: so offensively the line's been great, better than advertised. It's 860 00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:14,560 Speaker 3: defensively where the Bears need to address all their various holes. 861 00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:19,400 Speaker 2: Fair enough, I've been very overleveraged with Alan Robinson shares 862 00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:23,200 Speaker 2: this year, so very disappointing there. But I love the 863 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:25,920 Speaker 2: signs of life that I saw before the bias you mentioned, 864 00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:29,160 Speaker 2: So maybe we will see the Bears tendered around all right, 865 00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:32,600 Speaker 2: who should a manager's top weaver a'd be this week? 866 00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:34,759 Speaker 1: Well, if reminders Stevens and is there as him. 867 00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:37,440 Speaker 3: If he is not there and you're in a very 868 00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:40,279 Speaker 3: challenging and competitive league, who didn't make shrewd moves like 869 00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:42,719 Speaker 3: Samantha and I pick up Stevenson a week or two ago, 870 00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:46,239 Speaker 3: and then you had the audacity to plug him into 871 00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:50,000 Speaker 3: your lineup and reap all of the twenty fantasy point goodness. 872 00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:52,840 Speaker 3: I still the deata Foreman is also on that list. 873 00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:55,480 Speaker 3: As I mentioned before to Adam Troutman, if you're desperately 874 00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:57,400 Speaker 3: seeking a tight end, those guys. 875 00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:59,520 Speaker 1: Are widely available right now in Yahoo leagues. 876 00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:01,920 Speaker 3: I would definitely put it in a waiver wire claim 877 00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:04,640 Speaker 3: for both of those guys, and Cam Newton too, obviously, 878 00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:07,640 Speaker 3: you know, for streaming purposes. And there is no way 879 00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:09,399 Speaker 3: in hell he should be available in a super flex 880 00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:11,640 Speaker 3: or two quarterback league. And if he is, you know, 881 00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:14,080 Speaker 3: to smash the piggybank whatever he got left in fab cash, 882 00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:14,960 Speaker 3: throw at all of camp. 883 00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:17,600 Speaker 2: Love it all right? Three more questions. Give me one 884 00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:19,920 Speaker 2: player who you think is primed for a big fantasy 885 00:42:19,920 --> 00:42:20,759 Speaker 2: season next year. 886 00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:25,720 Speaker 3: Next season. You know, there are a couple of players 887 00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:28,640 Speaker 3: that are really interesting to me. You know, I think 888 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:32,480 Speaker 3: Elijah Mitchell has proven a ton to me here this year, 889 00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:34,319 Speaker 3: and I'll be really curious to see where he goes 890 00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 3: in fantasy drafts next season, because his skill set is 891 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:41,560 Speaker 3: otherworldly right now. I mean, he's he exceeded all expectations. 892 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:44,680 Speaker 3: And I'm a big proponent of the orders for contact 893 00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:47,520 Speaker 3: miss tackle rates, and he is excelled in those areas. 894 00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:49,640 Speaker 3: I mean, he's number two among eligible running backs and 895 00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:52,440 Speaker 3: the orgs of for contact per attempt. Kyle Shanahan is 896 00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 3: still going to be there. This is still going to 897 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:57,040 Speaker 3: be a run first system. You're probably gonna have Trey 898 00:42:57,120 --> 00:42:59,320 Speaker 3: Lance more than likely be the starter. So having that 899 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:02,000 Speaker 3: dual threat quarterback to open things up. You know, some 900 00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:05,200 Speaker 3: of the spy action the RPO plays that he could 901 00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:07,840 Speaker 3: take advantage of. I think Elijah Mitchell is going to 902 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:11,480 Speaker 3: turn a tidy profit probably guy right now, pending upon 903 00:43:11,520 --> 00:43:15,640 Speaker 3: how he finishes, maybe round three, maybe round four, and 904 00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:17,719 Speaker 3: then you know, in a couple of years, we're gonna 905 00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:20,200 Speaker 3: be talking about him as a first round fixture and 906 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:21,040 Speaker 3: fantasy draft. 907 00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:25,560 Speaker 2: Wow, that is bold, but I am very ready to 908 00:43:25,719 --> 00:43:29,280 Speaker 2: eat my words about him. Earlier season. I just didn't 909 00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:31,759 Speaker 2: love that how much people were spending their fab on him. 910 00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:33,399 Speaker 2: But obviously that did pay off for them. 911 00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:35,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, good, Jean, Yeah. 912 00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:37,080 Speaker 2: All right. How many times would it take you to 913 00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:37,960 Speaker 2: make an extra point? 914 00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:43,680 Speaker 3: Let's see, if I had a week of hot yoga 915 00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:47,080 Speaker 3: to prepare and to limber up and you know, stretch 916 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:48,879 Speaker 3: out to ensure that I'm not you know, you know, 917 00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:52,560 Speaker 3: tearing mcgroin or a hamstring or a glut or anything 918 00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:54,440 Speaker 3: else that I'm surely going to do on the ski 919 00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:57,279 Speaker 3: slopes at Breckenridge at some point in my life. Samantha, 920 00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:00,360 Speaker 3: I would say, if you said it over on a 921 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:02,719 Speaker 3: four and a half, might be able to get the 922 00:44:02,840 --> 00:44:03,319 Speaker 3: under on that. 923 00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:07,279 Speaker 2: Ooh, that's actually very impressive. It would take me many 924 00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:10,919 Speaker 2: many attempts Dan Harris for the two hundred attempts for him, 925 00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:15,000 Speaker 2: So that is impressive. All right. Finally, if you had 926 00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:17,720 Speaker 2: one cardinal rule to tell someone just getting into fantasy 927 00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:18,640 Speaker 2: this year, what would it be? 928 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:23,760 Speaker 3: What I would say is this, don't overvalue the fantasy draft. 929 00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:26,839 Speaker 3: I know there's a lot of pomp and circumstance and 930 00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:30,480 Speaker 3: celebration because the socialization of getting together with your ladies, 931 00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:32,920 Speaker 3: getting together with your guys, you get together with your people. 932 00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:35,520 Speaker 1: The beverages are flowing, the. 933 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:39,040 Speaker 3: Smack talk is spewing, and everybody's having a wonterful time, 934 00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:43,160 Speaker 3: and there's just so much investment into that singular event, 935 00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:46,840 Speaker 3: as wonterful as it is, but it's not the be 936 00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:49,239 Speaker 3: all end all of your fantasy season because of the 937 00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:53,319 Speaker 3: ridiculous roster attrition and turnover that existing fantasy football every 938 00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:55,960 Speaker 3: single year. I always say this, Samantha, there is the 939 00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:57,120 Speaker 3: fantasy football equation. 940 00:44:57,160 --> 00:44:59,759 Speaker 1: It's part of three parts. One part is. 941 00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:03,400 Speaker 3: The the next part is trades and transactions, so that 942 00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:06,440 Speaker 3: includes waiver wire moves, roster moves, whatever it is. 943 00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:08,439 Speaker 1: And the last part luck. 944 00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:12,799 Speaker 3: You know, can you survive the dastardly injury amp and 945 00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:16,320 Speaker 3: that vicious bite weekend and week out? Can you survive 946 00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:20,279 Speaker 3: the inaptitude to say like a Brandon Ayuk for the 947 00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:22,040 Speaker 3: first several weeks that you spend a lot of draft 948 00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:25,120 Speaker 3: capital lawn. You know, these are things are just unpredictable. 949 00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:27,759 Speaker 3: You don't see him coming, and you know you got 950 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:31,840 Speaker 3: a pivot, pivot like Ross with couches on friends and 951 00:45:31,880 --> 00:45:34,200 Speaker 3: you know, and that's the be all end all in fantasy. 952 00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:37,880 Speaker 3: So just don't overvalue the fantasy draft and its impact 953 00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 3: on your fantasy season. 954 00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:41,960 Speaker 2: I totally agree. I think that people place way too 955 00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:44,799 Speaker 2: much emphasis on that and like obsessed without their draft 956 00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:47,160 Speaker 2: grades or whatever, like no one cares get your guys, 957 00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:50,279 Speaker 2: and like the season is so young, so you have 958 00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:52,680 Speaker 2: a lot of chances to turn it around even if 959 00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:54,880 Speaker 2: you had a bad draft.
