1
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:14,040
Speaker 1: Fannasy freak sink Giggs. What's up? You're listening to the

2
00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:17,160
Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Live podcast. M James co joined alongside by

3
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:20,239
Speaker 1: the Wiskit from Wisconsin, Alex Gelhar. What's going on? Man,

4
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:23,920
Speaker 1: It's Friday. It's Friday with Chilling. We got MG my guy,

5
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:29,240
Speaker 1: Marcus Grant, Oh my god. Can I just say I

6
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 1: felt like the entire city of Los Angeles exploded in

7
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 1: enjoyment when Kershaw because here this was the weird thing.

8
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:42,160
Speaker 1: I'm not a Dodgers fan, but my heart was just

9
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 1: pounding through my chest. And I think, market and tell

10
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 1: me if I'm wrong. I feel like everybody was waiting

11
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 1: for the Kershaw blow up. Um. I don't know. Maybe

12
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 1: maybe because I am a fan like I, I really

13
00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 1: believed the best that was going to happen. But I

14
00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 1: also felt like, regardless of how that went, I was

15
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 1: okay with the decision to give him the shot there. Um.

16
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:05,040
Speaker 1: The other part of it is because I was watching

17
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 1: I was watching the football game last night, and I

18
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 1: had the I had the baseball game streaming as well

19
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 1: on a second stream on a second screen. Um, the

20
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 1: people in the apartment like two doors over, I can

21
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 1: I could hear them clapping early before I saw, so

22
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,680
Speaker 1: I knew. I was fine with it. I I don't

23
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 1: really care about spoilers like that, but I was like,

24
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,760
Speaker 1: I was like totally tense. And then like before that

25
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:35,400
Speaker 1: last pitch I just hear was I knew that was great.

26
00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:38,319
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, it was good. I'm not gonna get

27
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 1: into a full baseball breakdown, but man, thank you, Holy hell,

28
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 1: that was intense. We got Matt harm in here. What's

29
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: going on? How's West Virginia doing. West Virginia is pretty good? Okay,

30
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 1: I mean I would know. I've never been there. Well,

31
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,640
Speaker 1: I mean I've been there, but I'm not from there. Okay,

32
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: that's not true. I did actually have I was cleaning

33
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: my room up a little bit shockingly this week, and

34
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 1: I noticed that there were two Mason jars on my

35
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 1: We got a great I had this realization quick on

36
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 1: Mason jars, Like everybody has them and they're tweeting, you know,

37
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,639
Speaker 1: pictures of them on Facebook and stuff like in fifties

38
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 1: sixty years, like the baby cos and stuff when they're

39
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 1: cleaning out all of our house, and like the hell

40
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 1: was everybody doing with all these stupid impact jar? Like

41
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 1: why were they drinking out of the I don't know.

42
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 1: I'm gonna stick up for Mason Jars here shockingly. Uh

43
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 1: like they're they're really thick pieces of glass, like if

44
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,639
Speaker 1: you get like a legit one, not these trendy ones

45
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 1: Walmart or some other piece of crap store. Sorry Walmart,

46
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 1: we just lost a sponsor. We don't have any sponsors,

47
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: well potential potential sponsor um. But like they're really thick,

48
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 1: well made glass and it gets the water really cold,

49
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:50,640
Speaker 1: like if you just drink straight up water out of it,

50
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 1: or like any other drink. I will say this as well.

51
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 1: They're super This is totally dad move here, but they're

52
00:02:55,480 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 1: super easy to clean. Oh yeah, I'm I'm down with that.

53
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 1: That's yeah, that was kind of a dad comment there.

54
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: It's like they're speaking so overused, like people are drinking

55
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 1: out of them at dinner and stuff like use an

56
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 1: actual glass. Yeah, yeah, it's weird. It's weird at dinner.

57
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 1: I feel like there is there is that as well.

58
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 1: We got a big time showing from us here today.

59
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 1: We're gonna react to Thursday night football. We are going

60
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 1: to get franchises Fiery Phoner as well. We'll give you

61
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: some deep slapers and we'll do E d G every

62
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:31,800
Speaker 1: damn game today, so we will get it all, and

63
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 1: we'll do a complete breakdown of Cowboys at Green Bay,

64
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 1: mostly because it was gonna be an E d G.

65
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 1: But I think the game is super interesting and I'm

66
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 1: super interested to watch it. So there we go. We

67
00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 1: will talk about that game as well, But as always,

68
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: we start with your top news, the camera highlights in

69
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 1: the world of sports, breaking breaking news. Likely continue to

70
00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:03,280
Speaker 1: follow breakings, needs, had kids, your wife? All right, we

71
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 1: shall start in Detroit. Theoretic injured ankle didn't practice Wednesday

72
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 1: or Thursday or today. From what I believe, Justin Forsett

73
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 1: recently signed Dwayne Washington did return to practice today. What

74
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 1: do we make of that situation, gentlemen, Um, it's not

75
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 1: a great match up versus the Rams, it is not.

76
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 1: I mean, I I think I would prefer to see

77
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,479
Speaker 1: Dwayne Washington be healthy and get some run there. I

78
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 1: think I think he's an exciting back to watch. I

79
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,159
Speaker 1: think he is that between the tackles guy that the

80
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 1: Lions have been looking for. UM for a while now,

81
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 1: I feel like, you know, the Justin Forcette signing in

82
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 1: Detroit was pretty much to add some depth. Because Washington

83
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,839
Speaker 1: was hurt, Zack Zentner wasn't performing, they knew that theoretic

84
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:53,039
Speaker 1: couldn't handle that kind of workload, so I think in

85
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,359
Speaker 1: a perfect world they would prefer to not necessarily have

86
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 1: to use Justin Forcett a lot. Yeah, I think that

87
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 1: it's interesting because use Riddick would be the guy I'd

88
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 1: love to play in this matchup against an aggressive front seven,

89
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,839
Speaker 1: and also the Rams have some injuries on their defensive line.

90
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 1: I would be pretty interested in playing him. But if

91
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,039
Speaker 1: he's not gonna play, I'm probably just not gonna want

92
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 1: to have any exposure to any Detroit running backs. But

93
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 1: it is good to see Dwayne Washington get back out

94
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 1: there because we were really excited him, excited about him

95
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 1: a few weeks ago, and I think that excitement should

96
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,480
Speaker 1: still be there. Zack Center didn't really do anything with

97
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 1: his chances. The power back there, all right. Rashade Jennings

98
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 1: coming back, expected to come back versus the Ravens, he

99
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 1: says he's pretty much good to go. Expectations for Rashad

100
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 1: whiz uh. You know, it's not a great matchup for

101
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 1: him to come back in, and he's been basically, I

102
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 1: feel like every week saying like, yeah, I'm ready to go,

103
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 1: I'm so close and he's questionable. So uh and plus

104
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 1: I feel like they found something with Bobby Rainey and

105
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 1: Paul Perkins. No, I mean maybe as receivers. Yeah, sure,

106
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,119
Speaker 1: Bobby has been playing well out of backfield as a receiver,

107
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 1: but that was always Shane Vereen's role. Anyways, Like this

108
00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:59,800
Speaker 1: will be a good like if you have Jennings and

109
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 1: I'd win a couple of leagues where I went wide

110
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 1: receiver heavy early. This is will be a good matchup

111
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: to just watch and see how he looks and then

112
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 1: you know, starting next week. Made me think about stotting

113
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 1: him back into your lineup, but the Baltimore defense is

114
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 1: no joke this year, and you don't want to start

115
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 1: uh potential to down running back on a on a

116
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: bad offense right now against them. The good thing about

117
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 1: his injury, if there's a good thing, is that it's

118
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:22,239
Speaker 1: to his hand and it wasn't to a lower body injury.

119
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,840
Speaker 1: So that is promising at least for Rashad Jenny's Cam

120
00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 1: Newton practiced in full Thursday. Uh. I think he practiced

121
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 1: today as well. He has not been fully cleared, yet

122
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,039
Speaker 1: he's listed as questionable, uh not fully cleared from his

123
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 1: concussion protocol. If he plays, you know, I would imagine

124
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:43,839
Speaker 1: you're gonna start up, it's let it's let h speaking

125
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 1: of concussions. Jordan Reed also in concussion protocol, do we

126
00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 1: know what? You know what? I literally just saw a

127
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,840
Speaker 1: tweet he's questionable. I think I thought he was. They

128
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:55,720
Speaker 1: said he was definitely not gonna play, but I could be.

129
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,360
Speaker 1: It doesn't sound like I don't think he will play,

130
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,760
Speaker 1: although he's giving him the questionable designation. Is like a

131
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,280
Speaker 1: ray of hope for Jordan Reed owners because I feel

132
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 1: like somebody can keep me track of It's like eight

133
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,159
Speaker 1: percent of people that have been questionable have ended up playing.

134
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,120
Speaker 1: With the way they changed the injury listings, that's interesting.

135
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 1: Only the only reason I have serious doubts about it

136
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 1: is because when he stuffed with the concussion, he suffered

137
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 1: with the concussion during practice, uh during the week, or

138
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 1: at least was put into concussion if he first about it,

139
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 1: exactly exactly, that's what it is, all right. Jonathan Stewart

140
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 1: says he is quote ready to go versus the Saints.

141
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 1: It is an ideal matchup. For Jonathan Stewart, he's been

142
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 1: dealing with the hamstring injury. What do we make of

143
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 1: the news there? Uh, I felt like Cameron on his

144
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 1: pain broke through a bit last week. Obviously he had

145
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,680
Speaker 1: those touchdowns, but j stew is in line, I guess too,

146
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 1: to assume a full roll, full complement of touches again. Again, Yeah,

147
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 1: I think I think he goes back to being the

148
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 1: number one guy. He's the starter of the you know,

149
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 1: no concern about a committee, No no, I mean Camerarts

150
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 1: pain goes back, you know, being a second fiddle and

151
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 1: before when Stewart was healthy. So I think, you know,

152
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 1: there's there's always that fear again. I think Frozzy Whittaker

153
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 1: still has some life as a pass catching back, and

154
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,640
Speaker 1: you know, Cam Newton is still the goal lineback. It

155
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,080
Speaker 1: was incredible that as soon as Cam Newton misses a

156
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 1: game of Panthers running back scored two red zones. I

157
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: mean it was it was pretty funny, like well, unless

158
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 1: and I guess unless you owned Jonathan Stewart, then it's

159
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 1: probably not that funny to you. But I found it

160
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 1: pretty funny because it's just, you know, it's just the

161
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 1: way it is. I just think it was because the

162
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 1: Bucks were respecting the threat of Terrik Anderson in the

163
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,400
Speaker 1: open field so much that that's in there. I don't.

164
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:37,720
Speaker 1: I really don't think it had anything to do with

165
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 1: Cam not being in there. That's that's a threat you've

166
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 1: got to account for. But yeah, I don't. I don't

167
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:43,319
Speaker 1: think this is going to be a committee and it

168
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,760
Speaker 1: it's a great obviously a great matchup against the Saints.

169
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,320
Speaker 1: They've allowed the most rushing touchdowns with eight and they've

170
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:50,599
Speaker 1: missed a game, So there you go. That's not a

171
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 1: good stat. Eddie Lacy Apparently there's only one working ankle

172
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 1: among running backs right now. Eddie Lason also spring to ankle,

173
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 1: limited mostly to just running on the side during practice

174
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:04,679
Speaker 1: this week. It sounds like though he will go versus Dallas,

175
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 1: but who knows how much he will play? I guess

176
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 1: that's the question. So we go to our resident packer reporter,

177
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:16,840
Speaker 1: Alex Gill. Homer is the wearing a packer's hat right?

178
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:22,079
Speaker 1: The only bright the way it's another It's another hat Friday,

179
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,520
Speaker 1: two times in a row. That's good. What do we

180
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 1: make of Eddie Lacey? Um, gosh, I don't know, man,

181
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,920
Speaker 1: he I don't know if he's been good, bad, average, Well,

182
00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:36,560
Speaker 1: what's Eddie Lacy? He's averaging over five yards of carry

183
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 1: right now. He's just not getting a lot of carries.

184
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 1: And that's what even when he was he was good

185
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:42,199
Speaker 1: in this past game, then he got injured. So it's

186
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: just like everything you know, it's like a rain cloud

187
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:45,920
Speaker 1: is just following him around wherever he walks. Right now,

188
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 1: how much do you trust him this week? If he plays,

189
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,320
Speaker 1: I'm definitely trust him as at least a flex. I

190
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:53,199
Speaker 1: think this could be a game where the Packers will

191
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,040
Speaker 1: want to get back to establishing the ground game. They've

192
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,320
Speaker 1: been saying that. Every time they do with Lacey, he

193
00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 1: does well, and then they're like, let's just throw James

194
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 1: Starks back out there for kicks. But he's got a

195
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,440
Speaker 1: knee injury. He might he might be out this week.

196
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:06,959
Speaker 1: So if if Lacey plays, I think he's at worst

197
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 1: a flex. It's a pretty good spot. Dallas actually like

198
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:11,360
Speaker 1: doesn't have a great front seven. They're giving up a

199
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,560
Speaker 1: lot of yards per carry over between four and five,

200
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 1: but nobody runs against them because Dallas just grinds the clock.

201
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 1: But with them being on the road in Green Bay,

202
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,360
Speaker 1: it could be a script, could flip a little bit there.

203
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,720
Speaker 1: I hate this out, but I'll look for the Packers

204
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 1: this week. See that my that last part you mentioned,

205
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 1: Alex is my fear is that the Cowboys are gonna

206
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: do what they do, which is trying to eat as

207
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 1: much clock as possible. I think I looked it up.

208
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:36,079
Speaker 1: They've faced eight one rushing attempts their defense has, which

209
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 1: is the fourth fewest, and the and the three the

210
00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 1: three teams defensive that have faced fewer rushing at Stamps

211
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,679
Speaker 1: have all had a buy so they've also played one.

212
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,079
Speaker 1: He got a lot. We can dive into this, save

213
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 1: that for the matchup column. But if Lacey plays, I

214
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:52,680
Speaker 1: think he's He's a decent flex option. All right. Lettavia

215
00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 1: is still hurt dealing with that turf toe hasn't practiced

216
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:58,199
Speaker 1: all week. Uh. We don't have as of the recording

217
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 1: today whether or not he prank just today for Oakland,

218
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 1: but it doesn't look like he's gonna play. He's I mean,

219
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:06,200
Speaker 1: I'd be shocked if he got out there, and if

220
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 1: he does, it's going to be in a very limited capacity.

221
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,720
Speaker 1: Let Tavis Murray, I don't think you can play him,

222
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,559
Speaker 1: But what does it mean for the backfield there, DeAndre Washington,

223
00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:20,559
Speaker 1: Jalen Richard, Jamay's all, I may come on, just give

224
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 1: it a one guy. They can't. Nobody's pulled away like

225
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,200
Speaker 1: they keep splitting touches and everybody keeps doing like the

226
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:30,319
Speaker 1: exact same average amount of work there touches. I mean,

227
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,439
Speaker 1: I think it's the same thing we said last podcast

228
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:35,319
Speaker 1: that DeAndre Washington will catch passes, but so will Jalen Richard.

229
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,920
Speaker 1: They'll also spit split the workload in the rushing game,

230
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:40,320
Speaker 1: and then Jamay's all, a wala will punch in a three,

231
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,079
Speaker 1: two or one yard touchdown. But this is a pretty

232
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 1: sneaky good spot. The Chiefs give up four point eight

233
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:46,839
Speaker 1: yards per carry, which is the fourth highest in the

234
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,839
Speaker 1: NFL hundred and twenty three rushing yards per game. So

235
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:51,599
Speaker 1: I mean, if you have one of these backs and

236
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:54,360
Speaker 1: you're you're hurting it running back, which basically everybody is

237
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 1: hurting it, everybody, every position for God's sakes, uh, then

238
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 1: I think that this is a time to antually throw

239
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 1: one out there and just hope that they get more

240
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:07,360
Speaker 1: carries than the other. Tyler Eiffort ruled out yet again

241
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 1: back injury. Um at what point do you just at

242
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:15,319
Speaker 1: what point do we just give up? I think I

243
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:16,960
Speaker 1: think if you're in a ten team league or if

244
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,960
Speaker 1: you have a short bench, it's only it's time. I mean,

245
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 1: because not only is he out this week, but there

246
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,440
Speaker 1: doesn't seem to be any indication of when he's coming back.

247
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 1: I mean, we thought last week he was all set

248
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:30,720
Speaker 1: to come back, and then was it Thursday or Friday

249
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,719
Speaker 1: he had the set back and didn't play, and then

250
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 1: this week he didn't practice at all. I think it's time.

251
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:40,200
Speaker 1: Tight End is unbelievably gross. Though as a position, uh

252
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,959
Speaker 1: so it's hard to say, Like I mean, if you're

253
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:44,920
Speaker 1: if you're one of these teams that's kind of throwing

254
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:46,760
Speaker 1: your hands up in the air at the tight end

255
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:49,520
Speaker 1: position and like maybe you can buy effort right now.

256
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:51,520
Speaker 1: I don't hate that, but I'm with you that holding

257
00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 1: him during the bye weeks is is pretty rough. And

258
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 1: actually now as I'm so hard, it's it's rough to

259
00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 1: do and like, but the problem is like beyond the

260
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 1: top like nine tight ends, I would say, from like

261
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:06,080
Speaker 1: Greg Olson all the way down to like maybe Jimmy Graham,

262
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,600
Speaker 1: it's it's bad. So like you're probably that ten to

263
00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:11,080
Speaker 1: twelve team that's hurting it tight end, and I think

264
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 1: that it might be worth holding him. I feel at

265
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:14,520
Speaker 1: this point, if you've been holding onto him this longer,

266
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:18,080
Speaker 1: almost pot committed like that. That's where I'm a, why

267
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 1: would you, Like, I can't, I can't fathom. Like this

268
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 1: reminds me of Mark Seessler anytime the Browns cut a

269
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:24,440
Speaker 1: player or trade one, because he's like, oh, he's gonna

270
00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,320
Speaker 1: go on to have amazing success and a different team.

271
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 1: Like I've been eating that bench spot in only one

272
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 1: league with Effort right now, But there's not a chance

273
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,559
Speaker 1: in hell I cut him because the Bengals right now

274
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 1: are twenty nine in the league and red zone percentage,

275
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:37,679
Speaker 1: they can't do anything when they get there. And you know,

276
00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 1: when Effort comes back, he's done near indefensible in that

277
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:42,960
Speaker 1: area because of his size and his ability to box

278
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:46,599
Speaker 1: out defenders. So how many targets has c j U

279
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:50,959
Speaker 1: Sama and Tyler Croft gotten into? I mean, it's they

280
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 1: keep throwing the tight end despite the fact that these

281
00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,480
Speaker 1: guys are essentially no neighbors. It's it's weird, Yeah, it's

282
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 1: it's it's a pretty weird situation. And like, but Uzoma

283
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 1: has they have tried to get him to score man

284
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 1: he has seemed like almost allergic to scoring touchdowns. He's like,

285
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:06,960
Speaker 1: I don't want to I'm not going to do it.

286
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 1: But he's gotten the red he's gotten the red zone work,

287
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:12,079
Speaker 1: and they needed I mean, outside of Aja Green, they

288
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,320
Speaker 1: don't have like a passing game threat in the red zone.

289
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:16,680
Speaker 1: You use him. I caught whatever zach Ertz has in

290
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 1: terms of scoring touchdowns, so you know, being passed. Like

291
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 1: slight update, Tyler Ifort did do some rehab work on

292
00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 1: the side of the field on Friday, So there's that.

293
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,240
Speaker 1: It's cool. That's not great. He's supposed to be He

294
00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 1: was supposed to have played this week. That I mean,

295
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 1: I don't know. He was supposed to have played last week,

296
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 1: and then he had a setback, but not a setback

297
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 1: to the to the injury that he had. He had

298
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 1: a set back to an injury. Yeah, it's it's pretty great.

299
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:48,480
Speaker 1: Just to answer your question, Uzoma has four red zone targets,

300
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 1: he's caught one for six yards, and Tyler Croft has

301
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 1: one red zone target, which he caught for seven yards.

302
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 1: There you go. Alright. Other news and notes not really

303
00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 1: fantasy relevant but interesting. Nonetheless, Colin Kaepernick set to start

304
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,440
Speaker 1: versus the Bills, this after he and the team restructured

305
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 1: his deal to essentially take out injury guarantees. Jeremy Hill

306
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:10,160
Speaker 1: practiced in full Thursday, he was dealing with the chest injury,

307
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 1: and Eric Decker is now expected to miss six to

308
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 1: eight months after undergoing shoulder surgery. I think it was

309
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 1: a little bit more complicated than just a rotator cuff.

310
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: It sounds like it might have been a combination labora

311
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,840
Speaker 1: cough tear for Eric Decker. But six to eight months

312
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 1: is a long for Eric Decker. That's a long time.

313
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 1: What's the point of life. Let's get the Thursday Night football.

314
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 1: Emmanuel Sanders, Damarius Thomas, c J. Anderson for Denver who

315
00:15:36,640 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 1: oh boy, uh poor c J. Anderson owners, including my father.

316
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:43,840
Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys saw me tweeting some

317
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:47,560
Speaker 1: frustrated text A lot of expot of laden text messages

318
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 1: coming from my father because every time c. J. Anderson

319
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 1: would have a good play, it would get called back

320
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 1: on a hold. How about that touchdown? That touchdown run

321
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 1: was insane. He like worked so hard to get in

322
00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 1: the end zone and bobbing and weaving through the deep note,

323
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 1: Oh man, that was that was rough. I mean FABS

324
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 1: even tweeted out last night like I think c J.

325
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 1: Anderson's lost something like ten points to hold ten fantasy

326
00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,520
Speaker 1: points to holding penalties, and then Jake Seey, friend of

327
00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,760
Speaker 1: the podcast at all in Kid, replied ten point seven.

328
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 1: Not that anyone's counting. He's one of the big c. J.

329
00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 1: Anderson truthers out there, but he is well he he

330
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 1: You know, DeVante Booker had more yards than h looked great,

331
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:26,960
Speaker 1: and he was getting worked in early, which, as we

332
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 1: talked about last or a Monday on the podcast, is

333
00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 1: worrisome for Anderson owners because it was not This was

334
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 1: not like a garbage time situation. He was getting in

335
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 1: early and often. I think this is going to be

336
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,720
Speaker 1: another committee ye, and I think this is gonna end

337
00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 1: up being another pretty even split. I don't really know.

338
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 1: I mean, Booker played of the snaps. C J. Anderson

339
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 1: did play seventies six, so I mean that's encouraging, but

340
00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 1: at the same time, it's just still a little worrisome.

341
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 1: DeVante Booker on five carry's at forty six yards rushing. CJ.

342
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 1: Anderson on ten carry's had thirty seven yards rushing although

343
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 1: Anderson obviously put in some work through the air as

344
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:06,760
Speaker 1: well with thirty four receiving yards. Um man, it was weird.

345
00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 1: It's such a weird stat line when you see Trevor

346
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:14,200
Speaker 1: Simeon through fifty times completed thirty passes and you're thinking, Okay,

347
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,640
Speaker 1: that's gonna be good. He completed thirty passes for two

348
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty yards. What who throws the ball fifty times?

349
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 1: He doesn't crack three hund that it's crazy. Alex Smith

350
00:17:25,760 --> 00:17:29,160
Speaker 1: gets it. Alex Smith does get it fifty times though,

351
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,679
Speaker 1: that's insane. Emmanuel Sanders lead the way. I'm using air

352
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 1: quotes with lead four catches forty yards da, Marius Thomas

353
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:40,199
Speaker 1: five for thirty five. I mean, oh man, this this

354
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,680
Speaker 1: comes from our next Gen stats research team. Simeon did

355
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,440
Speaker 1: not complete a single pass over twenty plus air yards

356
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:48,800
Speaker 1: and he didn't have a completion over six point five

357
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:52,680
Speaker 1: air yards until the fourth quarter. Amazing. I mean, and

358
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 1: here's your weekly reminder of fantasy football is really stupid.

359
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,000
Speaker 1: Trevor Simons scored more points in Philip Rivers last night.

360
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 1: Oh that is rough. That's that's pretty right cool, And

361
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,000
Speaker 1: you know it's interesting too, write because San Diego. I mean,

362
00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 1: could you have named any of the corners there for

363
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,439
Speaker 1: San Diego? Their whole defense was shot up. It was crazy.

364
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,280
Speaker 1: No en franchise was putting in the inactives last night

365
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:18,120
Speaker 1: and looking at all that. He said something, He's like, yeah, man,

366
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:21,200
Speaker 1: Flowers is in active. Rets on I r somebody named

367
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,120
Speaker 1: may Her. It was questionable to him, like, I don't

368
00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 1: even know who the hell that is? Who is that guy?

369
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,160
Speaker 1: I thought that was the punter, but then I saw

370
00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:30,439
Speaker 1: him out there playing, uh Mayor or Maygor? I don't know,

371
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,040
Speaker 1: I don't know what. It's not John Mayor, But you

372
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 1: know whatever, all right, what do we make of Philip Rivers? Look,

373
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 1: it was not a great matchup for him, of course,

374
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:39,879
Speaker 1: uh one seventy eight through the air did have that

375
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,200
Speaker 1: touchdown kind of saved his fantasy day if you want

376
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 1: to call it that. But you know, again, he's just

377
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,000
Speaker 1: playing kind of behind the eight ball. Is this just

378
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 1: a blip, a blip on the radar because he's playing

379
00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 1: denver Or or should we start to now fade away

380
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:57,440
Speaker 1: from from Philip Rivers? I think he's fine. I think

381
00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,280
Speaker 1: he is who he is. QB's just don't have an

382
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 1: access to us ceiling when they played Denver. I mean

383
00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:05,040
Speaker 1: even Matt Ryan posted like a fifteen point outing last week.

384
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,680
Speaker 1: It was, you know, usable enough, but there's just no

385
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,239
Speaker 1: way with the pass rush, with the corners that they

386
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 1: have that you can access or usable ceiling. Which is

387
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 1: interesting because now running backs have seemingly gotten loose on

388
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:19,840
Speaker 1: the Denver Broncos defense. Well, and it was something that

389
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,439
Speaker 1: was happening earlier in the year too, and you know

390
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,120
Speaker 1: there were there have been running backs we've gotten over

391
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 1: on the Broncos. So you know, I was watching it

392
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:31,399
Speaker 1: earlier and you start to wonder how much they do

393
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,879
Speaker 1: miss Malik Jackson, how much some of the changes up

394
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,879
Speaker 1: front of effected them, but that least was big. That

395
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,679
Speaker 1: is a spot where they have been vulnerable. But you know,

396
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 1: as as Harmon mentioned, because they are so tough against

397
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,240
Speaker 1: the passing game, um, they kind of make up for

398
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:48,640
Speaker 1: they can hide that a little bit. And a good

399
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,159
Speaker 1: friend of you know, the program, Patrick Claybonn, had tweeted

400
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 1: earlier this morning that the Broncos defense has given up

401
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 1: eight total yards to just backs and tight ends in

402
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,640
Speaker 1: the last two games. That's interesting. People are using them

403
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 1: in space. I was talking to he Brooks in the

404
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:03,080
Speaker 1: couch last week. The linebackers aren't the same. They lost

405
00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:06,280
Speaker 1: Danny Trevathan. Oh wait, no, that that's the one they lost, right,

406
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 1: But so that's that's the one that's the way to

407
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:12,680
Speaker 1: attack this defense, and I think that's what we're gonna

408
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:15,159
Speaker 1: have to account. They had no answers for Tevin Coleman

409
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,800
Speaker 1: as a man. Yeah. There. The Denver Broncos combined allowed

410
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,680
Speaker 1: the most interest yards in the league. Two tight ends

411
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:23,679
Speaker 1: and running backs lined up in the slot. They allowed

412
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,639
Speaker 1: the most coming into last this week. Of course, obviously,

413
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:28,200
Speaker 1: now they played one more game, they all right, most

414
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:31,000
Speaker 1: but a hundred and twenty three point two passer rating

415
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:33,520
Speaker 1: allowed on those throws. I'm gonna have. We're gonna have

416
00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,479
Speaker 1: to keep an eye on on Houston right when Lamar

417
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:39,359
Speaker 1: Miller plays Denver next week in Week seven. Yeah, I

418
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,640
Speaker 1: wish they had I wish they had a usable tight end.

419
00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:45,439
Speaker 1: But yeah, speaking of tight ends, the torch has been

420
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 1: passed in Sandy Henry. Yes, sir, that's good. He's good.

421
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:53,119
Speaker 1: He's good. Sixty He played sixty eight percent of the

422
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,800
Speaker 1: snaps last night. Antonio Gates played forty percent of snaps

423
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 1: since This was, you know, pretty similar to what we

424
00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:00,639
Speaker 1: saw the week prior to all right, there you go.

425
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 1: Melvin Gordon put in a usable day as well, over

426
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,760
Speaker 1: ninety yards rushing a long run. He had one big

427
00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,879
Speaker 1: run and he was making some guys miss, but all

428
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 1: the guys he was making miss were two yards in

429
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:13,879
Speaker 1: the backfield. So it was not a great day. It

430
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:15,439
Speaker 1: would have been great to having had a touchdown, but

431
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:17,959
Speaker 1: the yardage was nice. If he had seen him, absolutely

432
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,600
Speaker 1: no doubt about it. Um And I was actually surprised

433
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:22,560
Speaker 1: you didn't catch anything out of the backfield quite honestly,

434
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:24,440
Speaker 1: given all those numbers that we just talked about, didn't

435
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:26,680
Speaker 1: catch anything out the backfield. Did have two targets, but

436
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:28,719
Speaker 1: didn't haul anything in, so that was interesting. All right,

437
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:35,719
Speaker 1: let's get two franchises. Fiery Phoner, prepare yourselves for It's franchise.

438
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:39,880
Speaker 1: It's Fiery Phoning off a week my fire day because

439
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:48,960
Speaker 1: that Alfred Moore gets revenge on the red thing. The

440
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,959
Speaker 1: fact that somebody dies at the end of why does

441
00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:56,440
Speaker 1: it have to be dead. If they're not dead, then

442
00:21:56,480 --> 00:22:00,080
Speaker 1: they're seriously wounded. Franchise. Are you there with us? It's

443
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,720
Speaker 1: great franchise. What's going on, man, Franchiito joining us. There

444
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,959
Speaker 1: is not getting any sound. I don't hear. Franchise, take

445
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:12,480
Speaker 1: your phone off, mute franchise. Oh boy, what's your pants on? Man? Well,

446
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:15,960
Speaker 1: that's not gonna happen either way. If he's there or

447
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,720
Speaker 1: if he's not there, it doesn't really matter. Uh, we're

448
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 1: not hearing him. Hold on, let me try and get

449
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,119
Speaker 1: him back. All right, all right, might actually have to

450
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 1: do some production. All right, how about this, Let's get

451
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 1: to our deep sleepers. Yeah, let's do that. Let's start there.

452
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:29,359
Speaker 1: I'll start us off. How about this, I've got to

453
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:34,440
Speaker 1: actually uh, well again, I am I am the co

454
00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:39,040
Speaker 1: commissioner of the Danger Zone. Uh. Chris Conley versus Oakland, Dude,

455
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:41,719
Speaker 1: I love that call. Um. He has been on the

456
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 1: field a ton more than Albert Wilson, the second most

457
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 1: next to Jeremy Macklin. Uh and I I he doesn't

458
00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:51,520
Speaker 1: get a lot of targets. I get it. But I

459
00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:55,119
Speaker 1: just think Andy Reid after a bye Alex Smith has

460
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 1: absolutely tortured this team, the Raiders, and their past defense

461
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,520
Speaker 1: is just been bad. Uh. So yeah, I think Chris

462
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,440
Speaker 1: Connley versus Oakland is a solid call. How about this

463
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:07,640
Speaker 1: this is my other one. This is my legit danger

464
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,679
Speaker 1: zone play of the week and Kwan Bolden versus the

465
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 1: Rams and Kwan Bolden in Week five played on eighty

466
00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,679
Speaker 1: I believe more than the snaps. He actually played on

467
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:23,480
Speaker 1: more snaps than Golden Tate. Just f y is completely supplanted.

468
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:26,159
Speaker 1: Golden Tate is the number two. I think so as well.

469
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:29,200
Speaker 1: The Rams also giving up a lot of yards to

470
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 1: wide receivers. I think if you're absolutely desperate, what oh

471
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,440
Speaker 1: it's the franchise? Hey pal, hey is that room on fire?

472
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:44,239
Speaker 1: Because it's about mildly awkward lighted up. I feel like

473
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:46,720
Speaker 1: I feel like we are that dog in the this

474
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 1: is fine, uh meme, and here comes franchise with the fire.

475
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:56,320
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna there. It is franchise hit us, all right.

476
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:59,560
Speaker 1: My running back one lock of the week is Giovanni

477
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:06,639
Speaker 1: Bernard against the New England Patriots. You might be wondering why,

478
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 1: because the Patriots are allowing the third few of Fantasy

479
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,480
Speaker 1: points per game to running back ry They're allowing the

480
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,639
Speaker 1: fourth most receptions to running back this year, and Bernard

481
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,199
Speaker 1: is second among all running backs in the NFL with

482
00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 1: catches on the season. New England's gonna look to shut

483
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:24,800
Speaker 1: down a j Green as the Cowboys did last week,

484
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:28,400
Speaker 1: leaving Andy Dalton with no option but to dump off

485
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:30,840
Speaker 1: to Bernard with Tyler right for it out again. And

486
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:34,240
Speaker 1: you know, y'all can push the Brandon LaFell revenge narrative

487
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:39,000
Speaker 1: game at your own risk. But whatever, All right, Jeremy,

488
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 1: He'll still dealing with the chess injury from two weeks ago,

489
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 1: even though he was upgraded to full practice yesterday. The

490
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:47,639
Speaker 1: same thing happened with the Bengals last week. He's on

491
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 1: the injury report, was updated the full midweek, and then

492
00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 1: Geo started the game and He'll had four carries. Untill

493
00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:57,639
Speaker 1: left the game with a shoulder injury. Uh. There's a

494
00:24:57,680 --> 00:24:59,560
Speaker 1: little bit of discrepancy here because they said it was

495
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 1: a shoulder injury and then he's on the report with

496
00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 1: the chest injury. I don't trust it. There's some shady

497
00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 1: stuff going on. You can't trust Jeremy Hill. Uh. And

498
00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:11,520
Speaker 1: a changing of the guard here makes sense given hills

499
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:13,719
Speaker 1: injury and the fact that the Bengals running backs are

500
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 1: injuring three point one yards per carry, which is thirtieth

501
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:21,439
Speaker 1: in the NFL heading into last week. Then geob Bonnie

502
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 1: Bernard started an average five point one yards per carry,

503
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:27,959
Speaker 1: which is a huge upgrade. UM. So Bernard had fifteen

504
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,960
Speaker 1: touches last week. I can see him getting at least

505
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,840
Speaker 1: that many touches again this week, given a strong performance

506
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 1: and the likelihood that Cincinnati will be down early, which

507
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 1: is a good game script for Bernard's pass catching abilities.

508
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:42,720
Speaker 1: So if you own Bernard, you start them. If you

509
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 1: own Jeremy Hill, you fetch his ass. Listen, that was

510
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:51,120
Speaker 1: your RB one lot. Are both of those the lock

511
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,000
Speaker 1: of the week or do you have a bus start

512
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,720
Speaker 1: of the week. I'll bust. You want my bus? I

513
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,960
Speaker 1: gotta bust. Okay, let's go, Gil. You're not gonna like this,

514
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:04,680
Speaker 1: but it's Eddie leah See against the Cowboys. Sorry, buddy,

515
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,879
Speaker 1: all right. Eddy Lacy has been dealing with an ankle

516
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:11,760
Speaker 1: injury all week. Green bas coach Mike McCarthy said he's okay,

517
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 1: he's progressing well, but you know what coaches say a

518
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:18,640
Speaker 1: lot of things, guys, So yeah, I don't trust it. Look,

519
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:21,520
Speaker 1: James Starts has not been available for practice due to

520
00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 1: personal reasons. He also has a knee injury UM and

521
00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 1: he's not likely to be available for this game. So

522
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:30,840
Speaker 1: I think the Packers are gonna have to roll Lathy

523
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 1: out on a bum ankle because, according to a report

524
00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,480
Speaker 1: on Taxes dot Com, Lacy and Starts are currently the

525
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:40,560
Speaker 1: only two running backs on the active roster, which is, yeah,

526
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:42,960
Speaker 1: that's not good heading into Friday with both of your

527
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:46,959
Speaker 1: your running backs banged up. Last year, Lacy was on

528
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:49,800
Speaker 1: the injury report with ankle issues in weeks two, three,

529
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:53,840
Speaker 1: and four and he played, but his production in those games.

530
00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 1: He averaged um ten point three cars the game, forty

531
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:00,720
Speaker 1: eight rushing yards, and zero touchdowns, and those games while

532
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 1: he had that ankle injury, so it's not a good outlook.

533
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,600
Speaker 1: The Cowboys are also a bad matchup for running backs,

534
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:10,040
Speaker 1: allowing just ninety five yards per game rushing yards per game,

535
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,639
Speaker 1: which is the eleventh in the NFL. They've only allowed

536
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:16,280
Speaker 1: two rushing touchdowns. Again, Lacy has failed to rush for

537
00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:19,199
Speaker 1: greater than eighty one yards in three or four games,

538
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 1: even though he's averaging thirteen and a half carries per game,

539
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:25,119
Speaker 1: and he still only has one double digit Fantasy outing

540
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:27,760
Speaker 1: this season and still doesn't scored a touchdown. So find

541
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:32,720
Speaker 1: your cheese elsewhere, all right, what's the fire take of

542
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:36,680
Speaker 1: the week. The fire tank is that Darren's roles is

543
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:40,360
Speaker 1: going to finish as the top ten running back. Let's

544
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 1: go get it. Yeah, tell me, why are you on

545
00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:48,080
Speaker 1: fire yet? I think so? Burn y'all? All right, First

546
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:51,480
Speaker 1: of all, he's faking the sad Dad Dad Washington Redskins

547
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:56,080
Speaker 1: rushing defense so sad, so sad. There's ties to New England,

548
00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 1: tied with New England for the fourth most receptions allowed

549
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 1: out your running backs thirty one, and Washington has allowed

550
00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 1: seven touchdowns for running backs this year. Now you might

551
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 1: be like, yeah, well, doesn't that make Ryan Matthews a

552
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:12,400
Speaker 1: good start? Yeah, well not really because Ryan Matthews, while

553
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 1: he's not on the injury report, he did not practice

554
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:18,400
Speaker 1: on Friday due to an illness, which is a big surprise.

555
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:22,680
Speaker 1: Ryan Matthew's been practice. Whatever the coach says, he expects

556
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:25,760
Speaker 1: Matthews to play, but again, coaches say a lot of things.

557
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:29,840
Speaker 1: The illness could still potentially affects his availability. Now a

558
00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:32,919
Speaker 1: little bit more on sprawls. He's got more yards from

559
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:37,600
Speaker 1: scrimmage than Ryan Matthews this year two to two and

560
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:40,840
Speaker 1: has twelve fewer touches, so he's been way more efficient,

561
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:45,440
Speaker 1: and despite Matthew's four total touchdowns this season compared to

562
00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:49,280
Speaker 1: Sprawls is one, Rolls has just six point three fewer

563
00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 1: Fantasy points than Matthews and standard scoring and has actually

564
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:55,520
Speaker 1: outscored Matthews in full point PPR. So if you're in

565
00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:59,160
Speaker 1: PPR league, Sprawls is a must start this week. Yeah,

566
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,280
Speaker 1: he only has four team catches on the season, but

567
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:05,040
Speaker 1: he's averaging thirteen point one yards per reception, which is

568
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:07,960
Speaker 1: way about his career average yards per reception of eight

569
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:11,560
Speaker 1: point eight. He's on pace for seven thirty two receiving yards,

570
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,440
Speaker 1: which also be a career high. He's also on taste

571
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 1: for a career high ninety carries, which would be a

572
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 1: nice supplement to his production as a path catcher. And

573
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,800
Speaker 1: he's averaging seven yards per carry in the red zone,

574
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 1: which leads the Eagles there. Now, if Matthews guns play,

575
00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,720
Speaker 1: his three point three yards per carry average has been

576
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:34,440
Speaker 1: horrible um and and he did not play well last

577
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:38,480
Speaker 1: week against Alliance defense that's allowing four point nine yards

578
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 1: per carry. He averaged three point eight against them last week,

579
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:46,640
Speaker 1: which is you son of a gun coming through with

580
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:50,120
Speaker 1: the flamethrow or just putting work in right now at

581
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:53,720
Speaker 1: the running back position. Alright, buddy, Yeah, Buddy rolls in

582
00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:56,760
Speaker 1: as a top ten running back according to this absolute

583
00:29:56,920 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 1: fire terry. Alright, alright, by franchise, that may be one

584
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 1: of the greatest walk offs of all the time. I've

585
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:10,840
Speaker 1: got to go put some pants on. It's a pretty

586
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:13,760
Speaker 1: good one. That's pretty good. Oh man, I like I

587
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 1: like the Geo Bernard call. Oh I love it. I

588
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:18,480
Speaker 1: thought that was gonna be the fire take of the week.

589
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:21,160
Speaker 1: Holy hell, he's up in the anti here. I like it.

590
00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:22,760
Speaker 1: I like it a lot. All right, let's finish our

591
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,560
Speaker 1: deep sleeper conversation. Then we'll get the Cowboys in Green Bay.

592
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:27,880
Speaker 1: All right. So I gave you Chris Conley Oakland and

593
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:31,240
Speaker 1: Kwan Bolden versus the Rams, high snap counts for both

594
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 1: both playing against shoddy secondaries there, all right, so Harmon

595
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,400
Speaker 1: will go to you give me a deep sleeper. Yeah.

596
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 1: So mine is a guy that I liked before the season,

597
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:44,480
Speaker 1: and it was absolutely one of the worst calls of

598
00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 1: all time. Camar Akin, Yeah, I mean camar r I

599
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 1: p has basically done nothing all the season. Nothing but

600
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 1: Steve Smith is doubtful to play. Uh, he's gonna miss

601
00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,160
Speaker 1: this game, almost almost for sure, if he hasn't already

602
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:00,840
Speaker 1: been declared out by the time you're listening to this.

603
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:02,960
Speaker 1: Mike Wallace is also on the injury report. I think

604
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:06,160
Speaker 1: he practiced at least on a limited basis on Friday,

605
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:10,640
Speaker 1: so he will probably play. But Kamar Aiken primarily lines

606
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:13,960
Speaker 1: up in the slot. The Giants have been bitten by

607
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:17,840
Speaker 1: slot receivers all year. Randall Cobbs matchup last week kind

608
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:20,120
Speaker 1: of showed that. In other other games this season, they've

609
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:22,280
Speaker 1: given a production to slot receivers, so I expect Maria

610
00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,080
Speaker 1: can actually have a pretty solid usable stat line. It

611
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,920
Speaker 1: is super risky, but if you're willing to take that risk,

612
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:29,480
Speaker 1: I think he's my deep sleeper over the week. I

613
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:31,320
Speaker 1: like it. MG my gut. Marcus Grant. All right, so

614
00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:33,840
Speaker 1: I'm going deep on this one. I'm pulling on case. No,

615
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:36,000
Speaker 1: you're not. I want what the hell is this? On

616
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:40,560
Speaker 1: the pouring out, I am going you said deep sleeper,

617
00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,560
Speaker 1: and this is maybe deep, like two quarterback league deep,

618
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:46,000
Speaker 1: But look at it this way. One I've got going

619
00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 1: brother one. The the Lions fourteen touchdown passes allowed two interceptions, okay,

620
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:57,040
Speaker 1: two interceptions. Case Keenum actually shockingly has twelve and a

621
00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 1: half yards per completion that's fifth best in the National

622
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 1: Football League. The Rams are running a lot of play action,

623
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,760
Speaker 1: which has been fairly successful for them this this year.

624
00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 1: This is a week I think you get. You finally

625
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:10,080
Speaker 1: get the Todd Gurley breakout game against a defense that's

626
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 1: given about five yards per carry. Todd Gurley gets going.

627
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 1: That opens up the play action, which means case Keenum

628
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:17,080
Speaker 1: gets the ball down field to the likes of Kenny

629
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 1: Britt and Brian Quick and maybe even Tavon Austin, and

630
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 1: he puts up a sneaky good number for you this week. Wow,

631
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:27,760
Speaker 1: I like it levels level in the whisk it from Wisconsin.

632
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,120
Speaker 1: How's Gilhart give me a deep sleeper? Well, one isn't.

633
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 1: I've got two on the same team. One is not

634
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 1: that deep. But he's kind of fallen off the face

635
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 1: of the Fantasy Earth recently, and that's Jamison Crowder. We

636
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 1: were seeing him earlier in the year. He was playing

637
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:40,800
Speaker 1: a ton of snaps, but as his snap percentage kind

638
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 1: of traded with Jordan read that, Jordan Reid started to

639
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 1: eat up a lot of that work over the middle

640
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:48,480
Speaker 1: like which took out Crowder. There so if Reid is out,

641
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 1: you know, Crowder could see a up tick back to

642
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,000
Speaker 1: close to double digit targets like he was earlier in

643
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:53,640
Speaker 1: the air. You know what, man, that's a great call.

644
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:55,320
Speaker 1: And on the flip side, if you want to go

645
00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 1: super duper deep Niles Paul, don't go pick don't go

646
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:03,000
Speaker 1: pick up Bernon Davis. You needed desperation, play it tight end.

647
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:05,120
Speaker 1: Give gives Paul a chance. He was a guy that

648
00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:06,680
Speaker 1: was kind of poised for a breakout. I know a

649
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:09,040
Speaker 1: lot of people in the fantasy community loved him for years.

650
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:12,040
Speaker 1: Suffered a lot of injuries and setbacks, but he's healthy now.

651
00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:15,280
Speaker 1: He bulked up this offseason and hey, who knows going

652
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:17,640
Speaker 1: into the two thousand fourteen season he was set to

653
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 1: start over Jordan's Reds front or being injured preseason. Uh wow,

654
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:24,920
Speaker 1: I wish I thought of Niles Paul for the danger

655
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 1: zone and said An Kwan Bolden, he's a good one

656
00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:30,040
Speaker 1: to tell us why oh why I was going over

657
00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:31,640
Speaker 1: when you were trying to get franchise on the phone.

658
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 1: But basically, just the rams are good up a lot

659
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:36,120
Speaker 1: of yards and uh An Kwon Bolden has basically supplanted

660
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:38,960
Speaker 1: golden tape as the number two wide receiver there. So, um,

661
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:41,200
Speaker 1: you know they're gonna throw the ball. They're they're they're

662
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:44,280
Speaker 1: running backs are all banked up. I would imagine, uh,

663
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:46,800
Speaker 1: Couter is gonna dial up a lot of passes. And

664
00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:49,160
Speaker 1: I think Bolden, who has been averaging six point two

665
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:52,280
Speaker 1: five targets per game over the last four weeks, I

666
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,120
Speaker 1: think if he sees eight targets, I wouldn't be surprised

667
00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:57,000
Speaker 1: at all. And I think he can convert that into

668
00:33:57,080 --> 00:33:59,520
Speaker 1: a very usable fantasy line. So there you go. All right,

669
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:02,920
Speaker 1: let's break down Cowboys at Green Bay. So again, green

670
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,680
Speaker 1: Bay at Lambeau. Yet again, they have a little bit

671
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:08,160
Speaker 1: of magic there. But I tell you what, man, it's

672
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:13,120
Speaker 1: an interesting game because the Cowboys have not been great

673
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 1: for fantasy purposes against their upon it. So Jordy Nelson

674
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:21,400
Speaker 1: is there. I mean, Aaron Rodgers has been okay, not great.

675
00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:23,000
Speaker 1: What do we make of this game? We'll start with

676
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:25,359
Speaker 1: you with Well, I mean I'm biased one. I think

677
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:26,840
Speaker 1: these other guys had some takes over there. When I

678
00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:28,279
Speaker 1: get into it before, I'd love to hear what they

679
00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:30,760
Speaker 1: were gonna say or why they're why they're concerned. Yeah.

680
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:32,759
Speaker 1: So well, I mean We've talked about this a lot

681
00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:34,399
Speaker 1: on this podcast, and a lot of people have talked

682
00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:36,840
Speaker 1: about it. But you know, the way that Cowboys play

683
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 1: defense is the way they play they play offense elevates

684
00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 1: their defense because they just limit the opposing time of possession.

685
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:45,839
Speaker 1: For a second, I thought you're gonna say the way

686
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:53,200
Speaker 1: they play defenses they play offense. I almost went, but yeah,

687
00:34:53,200 --> 00:34:55,160
Speaker 1: it is. But it's true. They have yet to allow

688
00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:58,000
Speaker 1: a one hundred yard rusher or a one hundred yard

689
00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:00,840
Speaker 1: receiver this year, which is pretty shocking seeing their personnel.

690
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:02,800
Speaker 1: And when I tweeted, I tweeted that graphic out earlier

691
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:04,080
Speaker 1: this week, and a ton of you know, when you

692
00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:06,320
Speaker 1: get something like that, it gets traction into the fan base,

693
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:08,279
Speaker 1: and I got a bunch of like Cowboys homers, like

694
00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:12,319
Speaker 1: quote tweeen, like yeah, lockdown defense, baby, nobody doubt us something.

695
00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:14,160
Speaker 1: No, no no, no, no, listen, it's not that your defense

696
00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:17,120
Speaker 1: is actually that good. The only team to hit seventy

697
00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:19,759
Speaker 1: plays against the Cowboys was the Bengals last week, and

698
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,319
Speaker 1: that's because they essentially got blown out. I mean, they

699
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:24,840
Speaker 1: just eat time of possession, they eat the play clock.

700
00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:28,560
Speaker 1: Other it's just a lack of opportunities for the For

701
00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:31,799
Speaker 1: the opposition, no running back has hit twenty carries against them.

702
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,600
Speaker 1: Only one receiver has seen over ten targets. That was

703
00:35:34,680 --> 00:35:38,720
Speaker 1: Kevin White's fourteen miserable targets on that Sunday night game. Crazy.

704
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:41,120
Speaker 1: I mean, I just I don't really know how to pray.

705
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:43,160
Speaker 1: I don't know how to and it's not like and if,

706
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,840
Speaker 1: as Galer mentioned, they gave up for over four yards

707
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 1: a carry and six point nine to the combination of

708
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:50,400
Speaker 1: Langford and Howard. So I mean, this is not like

709
00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:53,239
Speaker 1: necessarily a stop down run defense or anything, or even

710
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:55,759
Speaker 1: pass defense, but it's just the lack of opportunities. So

711
00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:57,760
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know how to project this game

712
00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:01,840
Speaker 1: for the Packers skill position player. All of that makes sense,

713
00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:03,920
Speaker 1: but the reason I would be okay with the Packers

714
00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:06,759
Speaker 1: skill position players is that they're at home, Like this

715
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:10,480
Speaker 1: offense is phenomenal at home, and especially if I'm assuming

716
00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:12,799
Speaker 1: the Packers aren't going to overlook that, I would think

717
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:14,480
Speaker 1: this is the type of game where they take the

718
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:16,720
Speaker 1: opening kickoff, that they can get it and go score

719
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 1: right away. Because what this Dallas offense hasn't really had

720
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 1: to do much is play catchup. Or come from behind.

721
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:24,160
Speaker 1: And what's so interesting about this game too is that

722
00:36:24,880 --> 00:36:26,919
Speaker 1: while the Dallas running game and all that stuff they've

723
00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:30,120
Speaker 1: done is their strength, the Green Bay rush defense is

724
00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:33,440
Speaker 1: their strength too. So it's like unstoppable force and movable

725
00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:36,439
Speaker 1: object like. And if they if they can even make

726
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:38,680
Speaker 1: Zeke human, you know, he's been like a hundred and

727
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:41,480
Speaker 1: thirty whatever yards in three or four straight games. If

728
00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 1: they make him human human, that's going to change this

729
00:36:43,680 --> 00:36:46,919
Speaker 1: game dynamic entirely. Alright. So however, yeah, give me. I'd

730
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 1: love to talk about Zeke because I think a lot

731
00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 1: of folks are really worried about what Ezekiel Elliott is

732
00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:54,319
Speaker 1: going to do against this Packers run defense. But let's

733
00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:57,960
Speaker 1: just review. While I mean the Green Bay run defense

734
00:36:58,040 --> 00:36:59,640
Speaker 1: is great, I think their numbers might be a little

735
00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:01,640
Speaker 1: bit lee because let's just review the running backs that

736
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,719
Speaker 1: they've played. T J. Yelden, who wasn't even really set

737
00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:06,840
Speaker 1: to start that game in Week one until Chris Ivory

738
00:37:06,880 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 1: just mysteriously dropped off the face of the earth. Uh

739
00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:13,720
Speaker 1: washed Adrian Peterson in Week two, another bad run blocking

740
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:16,400
Speaker 1: offensive line, as well a running back playing receiver in

741
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:20,560
Speaker 1: theoretic and in Week three and then Orleans darkwa and

742
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:23,000
Speaker 1: the mess of a Giants committee in week four. So

743
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,120
Speaker 1: it's not like they've necessarily been tested yet they did.

744
00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 1: They did have to stop. You know, podcast favorites Jerick

745
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:30,920
Speaker 1: McKinnon and Dwayne Washington too, I mean Dwayne Washington, but

746
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:32,600
Speaker 1: they were back up. He's like leader in the club.

747
00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:38,040
Speaker 1: Everybody on this podcast come for Dwayne but him. Yeah.

748
00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm saying they think they have a good

749
00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:43,360
Speaker 1: run defense, but like a crazy scary like league best

750
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:46,239
Speaker 1: run defing thing is too. They just welcome backed a

751
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:48,719
Speaker 1: lot of people off of injury and off of suspension.

752
00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:51,480
Speaker 1: They only had two or three defensive linemen on their

753
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:53,719
Speaker 1: active roster when they were shutting down running backs. Now

754
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:56,280
Speaker 1: they've got depth, can rotate guys in. I'm just saying,

755
00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:58,040
Speaker 1: I I agree with your point. It's not like they

756
00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:00,600
Speaker 1: shut down Leve Bell and David Johnson and back back weeks,

757
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:03,839
Speaker 1: but they also let those scrubs literally do nothing. Oh yeah,

758
00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:06,400
Speaker 1: literally do nothing. But I think Zeke will be fine.

759
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:08,440
Speaker 1: I mean, he might not have again like the ceiling

760
00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:10,680
Speaker 1: that he's access the last few weeks, but twenty eight

761
00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:14,399
Speaker 1: point four percent of his carries have come against eight

762
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:16,960
Speaker 1: men in the box. He's averaged four four four point

763
00:38:16,960 --> 00:38:19,279
Speaker 1: four yards per carry and scored two touchdowns on the

764
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:21,400
Speaker 1: on those fronts. So I mean, he's a guy that

765
00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:24,520
Speaker 1: I think can still very much get over on this

766
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 1: run defense, even if it is a pretty good well

767
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:28,719
Speaker 1: and let's not let's not discount what Zeke could do

768
00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:30,799
Speaker 1: as a pass catcher in this offense too. I mean,

769
00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:32,799
Speaker 1: you know, you line him up or you have him

770
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:34,719
Speaker 1: come out of the backfield, and I don't really care

771
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:36,839
Speaker 1: how good your linebackers are, it's going to be hard

772
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,279
Speaker 1: to stay with him on a regular basis. So even

773
00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:41,440
Speaker 1: if he's not running the ball super effectively, I think

774
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:43,840
Speaker 1: the Cowboys can find ways to get the football in

775
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:45,279
Speaker 1: his hands, try to get him out in space and

776
00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:46,960
Speaker 1: allow him to make some plays. All right, So when

777
00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:50,280
Speaker 1: he only has ten targets, which is kind of amazing,

778
00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:53,239
Speaker 1: which I seems very low, because as I'm saying that,

779
00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:55,160
Speaker 1: I was looking it up and feeling like that was low.

780
00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:58,000
Speaker 1: But you know it's not. It's not because he can't

781
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:00,239
Speaker 1: catch the football. But what also, what worries need about

782
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:01,799
Speaker 1: the Dallas I mean, Zeke, I think you're right, I'll

783
00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:03,160
Speaker 1: be fine. I'm not going to bench him or anything

784
00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:05,040
Speaker 1: in this matchup, but like in terms of like them

785
00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:07,880
Speaker 1: limiting the Packers offense with their offense like Dez is

786
00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:11,759
Speaker 1: not going to play again, and like Cole Beasley, Terence Williams,

787
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:14,960
Speaker 1: and Jason Witten, I I think this is this could

788
00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:17,279
Speaker 1: be a lower scoring game, not like the Green Bay

789
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:18,840
Speaker 1: is gonna put up a ton of ton of points,

790
00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:21,920
Speaker 1: but like I think you're Green Bay offensive starters like Cobb,

791
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:25,080
Speaker 1: they Dallas has gotten gashed by guys in the slot too,

792
00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:27,759
Speaker 1: Curly had a good game against them, Sterling Shepard had

793
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:30,319
Speaker 1: a good game, Jamison Crowder found the end zone, and

794
00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:33,800
Speaker 1: even Brandon the fell last week some of his production

795
00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:35,560
Speaker 1: came out of the slot, and Tyler Boyd did too,

796
00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 1: So I think I think the Packers offense will still

797
00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:40,080
Speaker 1: be fine. I'm just fascinated to watch this game to

798
00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:42,840
Speaker 1: see how out from everything we've talked about, Hunter Cowboys

799
00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:45,800
Speaker 1: win this one. They're a way better team. Whoa Okay,

800
00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:51,520
Speaker 1: I don't know about way but okay, awkward, I don't care.

801
00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:55,719
Speaker 1: What is my wrong opinion matter? Overall, raw numbers here

802
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:57,919
Speaker 1: for you, the Green Bay Packers defense has only given

803
00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:01,000
Speaker 1: up nine point four five fantasy points per game to

804
00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:03,840
Speaker 1: the entire running back position. That's nothing. It's best in

805
00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:07,000
Speaker 1: the league right now. They're also giving up just two

806
00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:12,080
Speaker 1: point one eight yards per carry, but again, uh, the

807
00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:14,800
Speaker 1: list of running backs that they faced not the best,

808
00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:17,640
Speaker 1: but still two point one eight yards per carry is

809
00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:22,680
Speaker 1: really really good. So again, I am just I'm fascinated

810
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:24,600
Speaker 1: by this game and I can't wait to watch it.

811
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:26,680
Speaker 1: I really hope it's going to be better than that

812
00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:30,480
Speaker 1: Green Baby Giants games. We'll also say what we were trashing.

813
00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:33,200
Speaker 1: The running backs the Packers have faced. The Cowboys have

814
00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:35,960
Speaker 1: not exactly played a murderers row of competition to dominate

815
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:38,040
Speaker 1: time of possession. They've beat up on the one in

816
00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:40,160
Speaker 1: four Bears, the one in fours, and the two and

817
00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:42,520
Speaker 1: three Bengals. That's sure of a good point, all right,

818
00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:44,840
Speaker 1: I like it. Not not exactly a lot of powerhouse

819
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:47,319
Speaker 1: offenses rolling up against that. Not that the Green Bay

820
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:49,080
Speaker 1: offense is right now in its current state. And I'm

821
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:50,560
Speaker 1: not trying to say that because they kind of suck.

822
00:40:50,640 --> 00:40:57,640
Speaker 1: But better than those Oh god, I almost put him

823
00:40:57,640 --> 00:41:01,600
Speaker 1: in in spots stars, but please let it be the

824
00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:05,480
Speaker 1: Jordy Nelson he's saying. That makes me feel not crazy

825
00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:08,600
Speaker 1: for suggesting that, Well, I mean only because Dallas not

826
00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:11,720
Speaker 1: only limits the time of possession, but they also relegate

827
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:14,319
Speaker 1: a lot of resources to stopping like the number one

828
00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:16,239
Speaker 1: receiver on the team. So I mean, and I think

829
00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:18,400
Speaker 1: a lot of teams have done that. And when you

830
00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:20,960
Speaker 1: saw the Giants do that and really hammer with g

831
00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:24,200
Speaker 1: Norris Jenkins on on Jordy Nelson, Uh, then he got

832
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:26,360
Speaker 1: over for a touchdown. And that's just seems to keep happening.

833
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:29,600
Speaker 1: So it's interesting to me in regards to what the

834
00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:32,120
Speaker 1: game flow might be. And this is the last note

835
00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:33,520
Speaker 1: we'll say on this game before we get to every

836
00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:37,680
Speaker 1: damn game. But um, if the running backs there for

837
00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:42,359
Speaker 1: Green Bay are both injured, it might force McCarthy said,

838
00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:44,520
Speaker 1: they want to throw it anyways, it's they want to

839
00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:46,840
Speaker 1: throw it. They've got Aaron Rodgers, that's fine, but it

840
00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:50,640
Speaker 1: might force his hand to throw it even more. And

841
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:55,239
Speaker 1: if Aaron Rodgers is on his game at home in

842
00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:58,359
Speaker 1: Land but where he's played great, they could get out

843
00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:00,960
Speaker 1: to a big time lead, I think. Uh, and it

844
00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:04,520
Speaker 1: could force Dallas's hand to actually play quicker as well.

845
00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:07,480
Speaker 1: All Right, well we'll see. I'm really interested to see

846
00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:09,160
Speaker 1: how I'm super excited to watch it. I'm actually mad.

847
00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:11,000
Speaker 1: I'm on the stupid couch for like an hour of

848
00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:14,040
Speaker 1: this game on right in the meat of it, and

849
00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:18,360
Speaker 1: I'm like, but let's know, anyways, let's get to E

850
00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:22,600
Speaker 1: d G. Every damn game Eagles at Redskins, harm and

851
00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:25,320
Speaker 1: what you got? Yeah, this is kind of a weird

852
00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:28,880
Speaker 1: game to project to me. I think that you know,

853
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:31,840
Speaker 1: Washington being at home, but probably without Jordan reed Is

854
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:34,360
Speaker 1: is definitely a game changer. I think de Sean Jackson

855
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:36,839
Speaker 1: gets over on this. You've got two narratives working here,

856
00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:40,719
Speaker 1: the one the revenge game. Uh too, he's been a

857
00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:44,120
Speaker 1: little bit shocking, not happy that he's been not getting

858
00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:48,000
Speaker 1: a ton of targets Jackson. It's pretty unexpected. It's really

859
00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:50,760
Speaker 1: not in line with anything we've ever seen. Such a quiet,

860
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:53,440
Speaker 1: soft spoken guy, right, So that's a little shock. So

861
00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:54,720
Speaker 1: I think we've got a little bit of a squeaky

862
00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:57,200
Speaker 1: wheel gets the grease theory going on here too, So

863
00:42:57,280 --> 00:42:58,719
Speaker 1: I think he gets over in this game. But other

864
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:02,520
Speaker 1: than that, on the Eagles side, I really like Ryan

865
00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:07,200
Speaker 1: Matthews despite what franchise said, and Jordan Matthews. Jordan Matthews

866
00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:09,680
Speaker 1: primarily still gets a ton of his production in the slot,

867
00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:11,520
Speaker 1: even though he's moving around a little more, and so

868
00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:13,880
Speaker 1: he will avoid Josh Norman pretty much, probably for the end,

869
00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:16,040
Speaker 1: the entirety of the game, if the Eagles are smart

870
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:19,839
Speaker 1: and uh Ryan Matthews. While he doesn't play full time,

871
00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:22,080
Speaker 1: he's not even hit fifty of the snaps in any

872
00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:24,680
Speaker 1: game this year. He has a team high fourteen touches

873
00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:27,520
Speaker 1: inside the red zone. Darrence Rolls is next highest with five.

874
00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:29,920
Speaker 1: So I think you're betting on a touchdown against what

875
00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:33,839
Speaker 1: is a Tara bad Washington, the Tara bad Okay Steelers

876
00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:36,239
Speaker 1: at the m I a alex galhar what you got,

877
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:38,960
Speaker 1: as I wrote in the rundown, and we're laughing about beforehand,

878
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:42,240
Speaker 1: the unstoppable force known as Levian Bell meets blades of grass,

879
00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:44,680
Speaker 1: also known as the Miami run defense. What a poetic

880
00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:47,880
Speaker 1: describe Miami run defense has the is giving up the

881
00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:50,080
Speaker 1: most rushing yardist for game. Levan Bell is second and

882
00:43:50,120 --> 00:43:52,920
Speaker 1: rushing yardist per game. Sammy Coats is his last rated hand,

883
00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:55,480
Speaker 1: might not be out market, might not be playing Marcus

884
00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:57,640
Speaker 1: Wheaton is bad. This could just be a game where

885
00:43:57,719 --> 00:44:00,040
Speaker 1: left Bell goes absolutely bananas. I would I would be

886
00:44:00,080 --> 00:44:04,120
Speaker 1: concerned about starting anybody outside of like Ben, Yeah, Antonio

887
00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:07,120
Speaker 1: Brown and Left Bell on the Steelers side of the ball,

888
00:44:07,120 --> 00:44:09,400
Speaker 1: because they're also not at home, but they're going up

889
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:11,120
Speaker 1: against a bad defense. I was gonna say, can you

890
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:13,560
Speaker 1: give some folks out there, because I know the the

891
00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:18,760
Speaker 1: road home split narrative for Ben Roethlisberger is pretty dramatic. Uh,

892
00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:21,319
Speaker 1: And it's interesting the road the road split has been

893
00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:25,600
Speaker 1: so bad, but yet they're playing a super bad team. Yeah,

894
00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:27,719
Speaker 1: I'm that's that's why it doesn't concern me too much.

895
00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:30,320
Speaker 1: And this Miami offense, my god, the only person I

896
00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:32,520
Speaker 1: wou think I would consider starting is Jarvis Landry just

897
00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:34,880
Speaker 1: because I would expect the game script to flip back

898
00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:36,719
Speaker 1: into one where he gets pummeled with targets again, and

899
00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:39,600
Speaker 1: that's to run a lot more plays. Bus Parker and

900
00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:42,640
Speaker 1: Stills are just too frightening of like a touchdown dependent,

901
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:46,000
Speaker 1: big play dependent guys to start. And then don't don't

902
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:48,759
Speaker 1: even get me started on this backfield Miami camp because

903
00:44:48,880 --> 00:44:50,680
Speaker 1: I mean, they have the lowest time of possession in

904
00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:53,239
Speaker 1: the NFL right now. They just cannot hold onto the ball,

905
00:44:53,280 --> 00:44:55,840
Speaker 1: probably because they don't have a running game. Shocker. I

906
00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:57,879
Speaker 1: wanted to just give a stat from from this game,

907
00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:00,359
Speaker 1: even though it's not my game, because I just found

908
00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:03,040
Speaker 1: it so interesting and also kind of underscores the point

909
00:45:03,080 --> 00:45:05,160
Speaker 1: I was making a couple of a couple of podcasts

910
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:06,920
Speaker 1: ago about how fantasy points per game can be a

911
00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:09,800
Speaker 1: little misleading. Miami is eighteenth and fantasy points allowed to

912
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:13,239
Speaker 1: the running back position, but that is highly skewed because

913
00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:15,960
Speaker 1: they haven't allowed a lot of touchdowns. Levyan Bell has

914
00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:18,520
Speaker 1: fifty two touches and over a hundred fifty total yards

915
00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:21,640
Speaker 1: in his two games since returning from a suspension. Opposing

916
00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:23,960
Speaker 1: teams are racked up a hundred thirty seven carries against

917
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:26,320
Speaker 1: the Dolphins through the first five games, second most in

918
00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:29,120
Speaker 1: the NFL, but Miami has the second lowest rushing touchdown

919
00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:32,080
Speaker 1: rate zero point seven allowed. That is like the most

920
00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:36,279
Speaker 1: something's gotta give, uh situation I've ever seen before. And Uh,

921
00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:38,680
Speaker 1: I think Bell gets into the end zone twice this Sunday,

922
00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:41,520
Speaker 1: all right? And if Big Ben doesn't perform today on

923
00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:46,440
Speaker 1: the road, Uh, Jags at Bears, MG, what you got? Well?

924
00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:48,440
Speaker 1: The first thing I'm looking at is alshon Jeffrey, because

925
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:53,120
Speaker 1: I think we have officially hit def con with one, whatever, whatever, whatever,

926
00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:56,160
Speaker 1: whatever the bad one is, We've we have hit that

927
00:45:56,200 --> 00:46:00,920
Speaker 1: with Alshan Jeffrey, and there was nothing reassuring about this

928
00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:04,080
Speaker 1: week when I read Brian Hoyer basically saying, yeah, we're

929
00:46:04,080 --> 00:46:05,759
Speaker 1: not gonna try to force the ball to Allshan. We're

930
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:07,239
Speaker 1: just gonna, you know, we're just gonna play this out

931
00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:09,120
Speaker 1: and let it be what it is. So we're gonna force.

932
00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:12,040
Speaker 1: So we're gonna like we're gonna force with the Cameron Meredith,

933
00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:15,759
Speaker 1: So you know, so does that make sense? So because

934
00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:17,440
Speaker 1: I think we were I think we've all been waiting

935
00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:19,880
Speaker 1: for the overcorrection to happen to Alli Shan and it

936
00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:21,800
Speaker 1: just doesn't seem like it's going to happen. And plus,

937
00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:23,759
Speaker 1: you know, who knows how many times he runs up

938
00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:25,719
Speaker 1: on Jalen Ramsey, who has done a fairly good job

939
00:46:25,760 --> 00:46:28,319
Speaker 1: this year, and I'm shutting down receivers, so that that

940
00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:32,239
Speaker 1: is certainly worrisome. On the flip side, I don't really

941
00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:35,279
Speaker 1: love any of the Jaguars in this matchup, especially not

942
00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:37,120
Speaker 1: in the passing game. I mean, Blake Bortles is a

943
00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:39,799
Speaker 1: turnover machine, which worries me. And yeah, I think we've

944
00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:41,480
Speaker 1: all kind of bought into this whole thing that the

945
00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:43,759
Speaker 1: Bears defense is terrible and you can pick on them

946
00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:45,719
Speaker 1: and they're not. They're not great. I don't I don't

947
00:46:45,760 --> 00:46:49,799
Speaker 1: want to, you know, start that rumor um. But they're

948
00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:51,440
Speaker 1: not terrible. I mean, they're kind of the middle of

949
00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:52,960
Speaker 1: the road defense. And I think a lot of the

950
00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:55,239
Speaker 1: credit goes to Vick fan vic Fangio, who has done

951
00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:57,360
Speaker 1: a very good job of kind of rebuilding this defense.

952
00:46:57,400 --> 00:46:58,840
Speaker 1: We saw what he did in San Francisco for a

953
00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:01,680
Speaker 1: number of years. So I mean, I would start Allen

954
00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:03,759
Speaker 1: Robinson because I think he's gonna be fine. I would

955
00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:06,319
Speaker 1: even maybe give a shot to Julius Thomas because the

956
00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:08,040
Speaker 1: tight end position, as we know, it's kind of a

957
00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:11,480
Speaker 1: mess right now. But I'm not super excited and believing

958
00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:13,799
Speaker 1: that the Jaguars is just gonna suddenly run through this

959
00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:15,600
Speaker 1: Bear's defense. And I don't know that this is a

960
00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:17,840
Speaker 1: game that you see one team jump out ahead of

961
00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:19,640
Speaker 1: the other. So there may not be a whole lot

962
00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:22,080
Speaker 1: of Blake Bortles garbage time points. You believe in Alan

963
00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:27,040
Speaker 1: Hearns at all. I believe in Marquis Lead more than

964
00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:31,000
Speaker 1: Alan Hearns. Yeah, I said, yeah, I said, do not

965
00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:36,560
Speaker 1: at me. I'm gonna at you right now. Brown's at Titans,

966
00:47:36,640 --> 00:47:39,080
Speaker 1: a game that nobody cares about in real life, but

967
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:42,520
Speaker 1: in fantasy maybe Matty. Yeah, I mean this is kind

968
00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:44,920
Speaker 1: of a gross game. To be honest with you, I

969
00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:48,400
Speaker 1: wouldn't go chasing Mariotta's ceiling from last week. I mean,

970
00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:50,399
Speaker 1: even against the Browns. I mean, I think he can

971
00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:53,160
Speaker 1: have like a usable streaming line, but at the same time,

972
00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:55,200
Speaker 1: like a lot of it was de Marco Murray getting

973
00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:58,680
Speaker 1: him into the red zone and the Mariotta throwing red

974
00:47:58,800 --> 00:48:00,440
Speaker 1: zone passes, and I know he ran that touched on

975
00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:02,960
Speaker 1: he only had like five points something yards per attempt

976
00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:07,960
Speaker 1: and had a passing yards. Yeah, so I mean massing touchdown.

977
00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:10,759
Speaker 1: I would not go chasing that ceiling. I think this

978
00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:14,560
Speaker 1: is a huge blow up spot for Delaney Walker, though

979
00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:16,759
Speaker 1: I think he can easily make the argument that he

980
00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:19,840
Speaker 1: is the top tight end on the board. The Browns

981
00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:23,520
Speaker 1: have allowed five and ten yards to the tight end position.

982
00:48:23,560 --> 00:48:27,080
Speaker 1: The next highest is three thirty nine, with Washington in

983
00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:28,560
Speaker 1: the second place there. So I think this is a

984
00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:31,560
Speaker 1: big time blow up spot for Walker. Bengals at Pat's

985
00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:35,600
Speaker 1: What do you say, Alex Gilhar, I'm honestly worried about

986
00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:37,439
Speaker 1: starting A. J. Green a bit in this game. Now,

987
00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:40,600
Speaker 1: with Tyler Eifford still out, Jeremy Hill being injured, and

988
00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:43,920
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick not respecting Brandon Lafeller, Tyler Boyd, we know

989
00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:47,400
Speaker 1: that he and Matt Patricia I think I was pronounced

990
00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:50,680
Speaker 1: his name wrong. Love to scheme away a team's best weapon,

991
00:48:51,239 --> 00:48:54,040
Speaker 1: and right now A J. Green's basically the Bengal's only weapon,

992
00:48:54,480 --> 00:48:56,720
Speaker 1: so I think he's still will probably get the volume

993
00:48:56,719 --> 00:48:58,640
Speaker 1: to maybe post a reasonable stat line. But if you

994
00:48:58,719 --> 00:49:00,680
Speaker 1: he's on a team of yours where you wide receiver

995
00:49:00,960 --> 00:49:04,000
Speaker 1: heavy early and you have the opportunity to maybe slide

996
00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:06,400
Speaker 1: them out, I don't think you'd be crazy to do so.

997
00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:09,040
Speaker 1: I also would not fault you for starting him, just because,

998
00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:11,839
Speaker 1: as Franchise also mentioned, the Bengals figure to be down

999
00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:14,000
Speaker 1: by a lot in this game and throwing a lot,

1000
00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:16,799
Speaker 1: so I don't know if I can do it. It's hard,

1001
00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:20,080
Speaker 1: but it's it's an option. Forty niners at Bill's MG.

1002
00:49:20,239 --> 00:49:22,319
Speaker 1: My got Marcus Grant. I'm looking at the running backs

1003
00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:23,960
Speaker 1: on both sides in this one. I mean one, you've

1004
00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:28,720
Speaker 1: got Shady McCoy and the revenge against his old coach,

1005
00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:32,719
Speaker 1: So I expect him to get fed plenty, especially because

1006
00:49:32,760 --> 00:49:35,520
Speaker 1: the passing game still hasn't really produced much fruit without

1007
00:49:35,520 --> 00:49:39,560
Speaker 1: Sammy Watkins. So I love this revenge game narrative builds. Yeah,

1008
00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:44,480
Speaker 1: it's his coachy. I mean, look, Chip Kelly cut him right,

1009
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:48,960
Speaker 1: basically let him walk from Philadelphia. Well, say, had a

1010
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:50,760
Speaker 1: few things to say about it, he had some things

1011
00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:55,279
Speaker 1: on his mind. He got it off his chest. Un Plus, look,

1012
00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:57,839
Speaker 1: who else would buyans were of engineerative besides Rex, Right, Rex,

1013
00:49:57,960 --> 00:50:01,480
Speaker 1: you know buys into gotta believe that. Um. But on

1014
00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:05,359
Speaker 1: the other side, I'm looking at Carlos Hide because look

1015
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:08,160
Speaker 1: that there's no such thing as a matchup proof player.

1016
00:50:08,440 --> 00:50:12,239
Speaker 1: But I think we're finding that that Carlos Hide is

1017
00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:14,840
Speaker 1: not affected by game scripts so much in this offense

1018
00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:17,080
Speaker 1: that they find ways to get him the football and

1019
00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:18,960
Speaker 1: they're finding ways to get him the football down near

1020
00:50:18,960 --> 00:50:20,799
Speaker 1: the goal line so that he can score touchdowns as well.

1021
00:50:20,840 --> 00:50:23,440
Speaker 1: So I think regardless of how this game goes, I

1022
00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:25,680
Speaker 1: think you can still ride with Carlos high, because he's

1023
00:50:25,680 --> 00:50:27,839
Speaker 1: going to get plenty of opportunity. None of you guys

1024
00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:31,080
Speaker 1: really excited about Kaepernick being back in the center, really

1025
00:50:31,239 --> 00:50:33,839
Speaker 1: I don't think it matters for fantasy. Um. I mean

1026
00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:38,960
Speaker 1: I think I'm excited, agreed. I think it's I think

1027
00:50:38,960 --> 00:50:42,200
Speaker 1: it makes you know. It's a great storyline. And when

1028
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:44,560
Speaker 1: when when they do Total Access or ESPN Sports In

1029
00:50:44,680 --> 00:50:47,000
Speaker 1: or whatever like, it'll definitely be a top story. There's

1030
00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:49,160
Speaker 1: that Tory Smith factor. Harmon is what you and I

1031
00:50:49,160 --> 00:50:51,920
Speaker 1: talked about could be the only real interesting thing. Yeah,

1032
00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:55,040
Speaker 1: I mean Kaepernick had for all his flaws and there

1033
00:50:55,040 --> 00:50:56,880
Speaker 1: are a lot of them as a player that he has,

1034
00:50:57,280 --> 00:51:00,440
Speaker 1: he has over eight five passer rating on passes traveling

1035
00:51:00,440 --> 00:51:02,480
Speaker 1: twenty yards in the air from two thousand and fifteen.

1036
00:51:02,840 --> 00:51:04,640
Speaker 1: Really about the only thing he still did well was

1037
00:51:04,680 --> 00:51:07,680
Speaker 1: whip it down the field. That's weird because I don't

1038
00:51:07,840 --> 00:51:10,520
Speaker 1: I don't see him as a good downfield guy, but

1039
00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:12,960
Speaker 1: he's aggressive and Gabbert, I mean, is the opposite. He

1040
00:51:13,000 --> 00:51:15,520
Speaker 1: has a forty three passer rating this year on passing

1041
00:51:15,640 --> 00:51:18,839
Speaker 1: traveling over twenty I mean he can throw it twenty yards,

1042
00:51:18,880 --> 00:51:21,120
Speaker 1: but not near where it's supposed to go. And also

1043
00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:24,320
Speaker 1: Gabbert leads the NFL and rushing yards by a quarterback,

1044
00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:26,879
Speaker 1: which is probably surprising to most people. But I mean,

1045
00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:29,520
Speaker 1: if one thing we can say for sure Kaepernick is

1046
00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:32,120
Speaker 1: a better runner than Yabbert, So I mean I think

1047
00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:34,200
Speaker 1: that he has upside as a streamer. Probably not in

1048
00:51:34,280 --> 00:51:37,040
Speaker 1: this week, travel taking literally the longest cross country trip

1049
00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:39,640
Speaker 1: you can take, but I think and there's gonna be

1050
00:51:39,640 --> 00:51:41,400
Speaker 1: a week I'm gonna be tempted to play Colin Kaeptrick.

1051
00:51:41,440 --> 00:51:44,680
Speaker 1: I'm just warning you guys right now. I'll say this

1052
00:51:44,719 --> 00:51:47,600
Speaker 1: as well. A West Coast team traveling in the East

1053
00:51:47,600 --> 00:51:50,680
Speaker 1: Coast in a morning game, I don't know. There's that

1054
00:51:50,760 --> 00:51:54,600
Speaker 1: narrative as well. Ravens at New York taking on the Giants,

1055
00:51:55,640 --> 00:51:57,719
Speaker 1: Matt Harmon, what are you got? Welcome back to the

1056
00:51:57,760 --> 00:52:00,799
Speaker 1: Terence West Show, ladies and jail. I am. I am

1057
00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:05,359
Speaker 1: still firmly driving that bandwagon all the way to Hellot. Yeah,

1058
00:52:05,400 --> 00:52:09,960
Speaker 1: you guys are on. We're going places, baby and Terence

1059
00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:12,080
Speaker 1: West I profiled him in the Next Game Stats Matchup

1060
00:52:12,120 --> 00:52:15,560
Speaker 1: column this week. The Giants front seven has played well

1061
00:52:16,160 --> 00:52:18,360
Speaker 1: UH for the entirety of the season, but the last

1062
00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:20,400
Speaker 1: two weeks they've started to give it up a little

1063
00:52:20,440 --> 00:52:23,960
Speaker 1: bit to opposing running backs. UH. New York allowed ten

1064
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:25,799
Speaker 1: point three yards per carry out of the single back

1065
00:52:25,840 --> 00:52:28,439
Speaker 1: formation to Jerick McKinnon's six point four yards per carry

1066
00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:30,600
Speaker 1: out of the eye formation to any Lacey and ten

1067
00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:33,799
Speaker 1: point nine yards per carried to the two combined uh

1068
00:52:33,840 --> 00:52:36,840
Speaker 1: in the shotgun over the last two weeks West distance

1069
00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:38,800
Speaker 1: travel per rush yard game. I know I'm getting a

1070
00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:40,760
Speaker 1: little bit in the weeds here with the NGS stuff,

1071
00:52:40,800 --> 00:52:42,920
Speaker 1: but that's a that's a metric that I've seen a

1072
00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:46,040
Speaker 1: lot of correlations between straight up downhill power running. It's

1073
00:52:46,080 --> 00:52:48,520
Speaker 1: gone down every week, and his yards per carry has

1074
00:52:48,520 --> 00:52:51,279
Speaker 1: gone up every single week, So he's getting better as

1075
00:52:51,280 --> 00:52:54,080
Speaker 1: the season's gone on. They essentially ousted Mark Trestman because

1076
00:52:54,080 --> 00:52:56,560
Speaker 1: they ignored West in the second half. I expect West

1077
00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:59,040
Speaker 1: to have a really big game here. Uh this game

1078
00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:00,920
Speaker 1: is in New York. I would like it better if

1079
00:53:00,920 --> 00:53:02,880
Speaker 1: it was in Baltimore. But at the same time, I

1080
00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:04,520
Speaker 1: still think it's a good spot for West. And I

1081
00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:07,200
Speaker 1: think it's also like the Giants need to get right here, man,

1082
00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:09,520
Speaker 1: like they really like this has got to happen this

1083
00:53:09,520 --> 00:53:11,880
Speaker 1: week or I'm gonna be like just completely out on

1084
00:53:11,920 --> 00:53:15,840
Speaker 1: this offense. Oh God, please, let's go odell uh rams

1085
00:53:15,920 --> 00:53:18,799
Speaker 1: at Lions? What you got a g as we kind

1086
00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:20,759
Speaker 1: of I think Marcus when that hinted its earlier. This

1087
00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:22,640
Speaker 1: could be the Todd Gurley blow up game because the

1088
00:53:22,680 --> 00:53:24,960
Speaker 1: Lions give up like five yards at five point one

1089
00:53:24,960 --> 00:53:27,759
Speaker 1: one yards per carry but haven't allowed a rushing touchdown yet.

1090
00:53:28,239 --> 00:53:30,319
Speaker 1: That could all very well changed this week with Todd

1091
00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:32,640
Speaker 1: Gurley coming against their banged up front seven. There's still

1092
00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:34,920
Speaker 1: I think likely to miss two their two best players

1093
00:53:34,920 --> 00:53:38,359
Speaker 1: in the front seven, and Ezekielanza and DeAndre Levy. I'm

1094
00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:44,640
Speaker 1: not in the boat with Marcus on starting case Keenum. However, However,

1095
00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:48,399
Speaker 1: as Adam Rank affectionately calls it, the Doyle rules, now

1096
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:51,880
Speaker 1: tight ends can score against the Lions that I think

1097
00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:55,080
Speaker 1: LANs Kendricks could be a sneaky, sneaky pick up if

1098
00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:56,960
Speaker 1: you are completely desperate, because I think he's third on

1099
00:53:56,960 --> 00:53:59,320
Speaker 1: the team in targets right now, to be completely honest,

1100
00:54:00,160 --> 00:54:01,759
Speaker 1: and then otherwise, I think Marvin Jones is in a

1101
00:54:01,760 --> 00:54:04,160
Speaker 1: great spot and I'm worried about everybody else in the line.

1102
00:54:04,239 --> 00:54:06,680
Speaker 1: So that's about that. You talk about the Doyle rules

1103
00:54:06,680 --> 00:54:11,279
Speaker 1: in somewhere, zach Ertz has the SAIDs thanks for messing

1104
00:54:11,320 --> 00:54:15,799
Speaker 1: up our narrative. UH, Panthers at Saints A lot of

1105
00:54:15,840 --> 00:54:18,760
Speaker 1: points should be scored in this game, and of course

1106
00:54:18,880 --> 00:54:20,719
Speaker 1: there will be no point scored in this game. MG,

1107
00:54:20,920 --> 00:54:23,799
Speaker 1: my guy, right, And that's like there are I think

1108
00:54:23,840 --> 00:54:26,719
Speaker 1: I can. I can paint a picture where there are

1109
00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:29,800
Speaker 1: a ton of points scored because both of these defenses

1110
00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:33,239
Speaker 1: have been vulnerable all year long. I can also paint

1111
00:54:33,239 --> 00:54:35,200
Speaker 1: you a picture where there are very few points scored

1112
00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:37,160
Speaker 1: because these teams play each other twice a year and

1113
00:54:37,160 --> 00:54:40,239
Speaker 1: they're very familiar with what the other one does. And

1114
00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:42,759
Speaker 1: Matt Harmon is giving me the state I would be

1115
00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:47,440
Speaker 1: shocked if it's because it's Saints at home, and that's

1116
00:54:47,480 --> 00:54:49,000
Speaker 1: and that's why I think. I think that's why I

1117
00:54:49,080 --> 00:54:50,919
Speaker 1: lean more toward there being a lot of points scored

1118
00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:52,680
Speaker 1: in this one, because the Saints are at home, and

1119
00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:54,600
Speaker 1: we know how Drew Brees is so much better in

1120
00:54:54,640 --> 00:54:57,920
Speaker 1: the Dome. Uh. But I do think that the Panthers

1121
00:54:58,000 --> 00:55:00,200
Speaker 1: realized they gotta have a win in this game. So

1122
00:55:00,239 --> 00:55:02,879
Speaker 1: I think I think you're gonna see Cam Newton go

1123
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:05,319
Speaker 1: all Superman on this then on this one this week,

1124
00:55:05,560 --> 00:55:07,160
Speaker 1: So that means a lot of a lot of good

1125
00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:10,960
Speaker 1: things for Kelvin Benjamin, for Greg Olsen, I think you

1126
00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:13,960
Speaker 1: see Fozzy Whittaker catching balls out of the backfield, and

1127
00:55:14,080 --> 00:55:16,640
Speaker 1: you know Cam will get a couple of rushing touchdowns. Possibly.

1128
00:55:16,920 --> 00:55:19,799
Speaker 1: What is that again, Corey Brown? Uh, maybe you guys

1129
00:55:19,840 --> 00:55:21,480
Speaker 1: are playing a lot of snaps. They are playing, but

1130
00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:24,400
Speaker 1: not if you're desk prefer receiver. I wouldn't be shocked. Um.

1131
00:55:24,480 --> 00:55:26,759
Speaker 1: And you know, for everybody who even in everybody is

1132
00:55:26,760 --> 00:55:29,120
Speaker 1: going to ask us on Twitter and the next twenty

1133
00:55:29,160 --> 00:55:32,200
Speaker 1: four to thirty six hours. Uh yeah, good luck with

1134
00:55:32,239 --> 00:55:34,120
Speaker 1: that Saints wide receiver roulette. I mean, it could be

1135
00:55:34,120 --> 00:55:36,160
Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks, it could be really Snead, it could be

1136
00:55:36,200 --> 00:55:40,080
Speaker 1: Michael Thomas. You just there's no way of telling week

1137
00:55:40,120 --> 00:55:42,319
Speaker 1: to week which one of those. I love Snead this week.

1138
00:55:42,520 --> 00:55:46,520
Speaker 1: I absolutely love Snead this week. I think they're I

1139
00:55:46,520 --> 00:55:48,719
Speaker 1: think the linebackers are not. I mean, I don't know.

1140
00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:50,360
Speaker 1: I don't know what kind of shell that they're going

1141
00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:52,719
Speaker 1: to try to use to stop Snead, But I love

1142
00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:55,880
Speaker 1: him this week. I think he's big. Only once in

1143
00:55:55,920 --> 00:55:58,120
Speaker 1: the last year and a half or so, if you

1144
00:55:58,160 --> 00:55:59,920
Speaker 1: go back to the beginning of last year, have been

1145
00:56:00,000 --> 00:56:02,839
Speaker 1: New Orleans Saints not scored twenty plus points when at home.

1146
00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:06,120
Speaker 1: And that was week two of last year against Tampa Bay. Yeah,

1147
00:56:06,160 --> 00:56:07,840
Speaker 1: I don't have the distribution in this game on the

1148
00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:10,080
Speaker 1: Saint side too, is confusing to me, though, Like I

1149
00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:13,359
Speaker 1: really like Michael Thomas in this game, you know, I

1150
00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:16,239
Speaker 1: think that he's been ascending if you like. If you

1151
00:56:16,360 --> 00:56:18,839
Speaker 1: like Michael Thomas, I like that Koby Flinter is gonna

1152
00:56:18,880 --> 00:56:22,000
Speaker 1: do nothing. Yeah, I mean I don't think like tight

1153
00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:25,520
Speaker 1: ends are kind of a rough proposition against the Panthers linebackers.

1154
00:56:25,520 --> 00:56:27,160
Speaker 1: But their safeties are so bad though, so they've been

1155
00:56:27,160 --> 00:56:29,160
Speaker 1: giving up some production and I don't know what the

1156
00:56:29,160 --> 00:56:31,000
Speaker 1: hell is gonna happen. And on the same side, I

1157
00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:33,160
Speaker 1: do think it's a good bounceback spot for Brandon Cooks though,

1158
00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:35,480
Speaker 1: who you like Breese obviously? Oh yeah, I mean that's

1159
00:56:35,520 --> 00:56:37,360
Speaker 1: what like. It all comes kind of comes back to,

1160
00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:40,799
Speaker 1: like take the take the cake, not the icing. In

1161
00:56:40,840 --> 00:56:43,200
Speaker 1: this situation with with Drew Brees. I mean, I think

1162
00:56:43,200 --> 00:56:45,759
Speaker 1: he's gonna blow up, But who's gonna blow up with him?

1163
00:56:45,800 --> 00:56:48,440
Speaker 1: That's a good question. All right, let's go Chiefs Raiders,

1164
00:56:48,480 --> 00:56:50,719
Speaker 1: Harmon what you get? Yeah, this game could be I

1165
00:56:50,800 --> 00:56:52,600
Speaker 1: think this game could be sneaky high scoring. I've been

1166
00:56:52,600 --> 00:56:54,319
Speaker 1: trying to call a high scoring game for the Chiefs

1167
00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:58,160
Speaker 1: and it hasn't worked. So I'm gonna in doubled. I'm

1168
00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:01,480
Speaker 1: gonna double down or like Droople down here and say

1169
00:57:01,520 --> 00:57:03,680
Speaker 1: this could be a sneaky high scoring game for the Chiefs.

1170
00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:05,440
Speaker 1: I mean, they play the Raiders defense, who are on

1171
00:57:05,480 --> 00:57:08,400
Speaker 1: pace to allow the most yards per game since nineteen

1172
00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:11,520
Speaker 1: seventy I believe escial this morning. So yeah, they're not

1173
00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:13,640
Speaker 1: a good defense. Uh, they've paid a lot of money

1174
00:57:13,640 --> 00:57:15,799
Speaker 1: for a lot of parts that aren't working. Um. The

1175
00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:17,680
Speaker 1: Chiefs backfield I think is the biggest story in this

1176
00:57:17,720 --> 00:57:21,040
Speaker 1: game obviously. Jamal Charles says the shackles are off. Um,

1177
00:57:21,160 --> 00:57:23,080
Speaker 1: not unlike another person said that this week, but in

1178
00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:26,680
Speaker 1: more of a positive sense. Uh, sorry my bad, um,

1179
00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:30,480
Speaker 1: But yeah, I think I think that, you know, Charles, Sorry,

1180
00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:33,600
Speaker 1: I don't know that just came out of wasn't Charles?

1181
00:57:33,640 --> 00:57:36,160
Speaker 1: I think you know he should play more, but go

1182
00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:37,760
Speaker 1: back to beer. By the way, I know I need

1183
00:57:37,800 --> 00:57:40,320
Speaker 1: to really go back to beer. But Jamal Charles is

1184
00:57:40,320 --> 00:57:42,840
Speaker 1: gonna play. Coaching staff has still said that he's a

1185
00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:45,200
Speaker 1: little bit limited, So I don't really know how to

1186
00:57:45,200 --> 00:57:47,600
Speaker 1: read this situation, Spencer, where I think is still going

1187
00:57:47,640 --> 00:57:50,560
Speaker 1: to figure in. I mean, I can't honestly, like reliably

1188
00:57:50,560 --> 00:57:53,160
Speaker 1: tell you what's going to happen. I hate the default,

1189
00:57:53,240 --> 00:57:54,760
Speaker 1: like I need to see it first to know, but

1190
00:57:54,880 --> 00:57:57,040
Speaker 1: I kind of need to see the chief backfield split,

1191
00:57:57,440 --> 00:58:00,160
Speaker 1: uh to know for sure. But other than that, love

1192
00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:02,800
Speaker 1: Jeremy Macklan, Love Travis Kelsey, who's getting a ton of

1193
00:58:02,800 --> 00:58:05,280
Speaker 1: red zone targets. Chris Conney, like you mentioned, actually second

1194
00:58:05,280 --> 00:58:07,000
Speaker 1: on the team in red zone targets for the Chiefs,

1195
00:58:07,320 --> 00:58:09,480
Speaker 1: and I think you fire up all your Raiders. Uh.

1196
00:58:09,360 --> 00:58:11,960
Speaker 1: Amari Cooper is in a blow up spot again. He

1197
00:58:12,240 --> 00:58:14,720
Speaker 1: primarily runs his rouse from the left side of the field.

1198
00:58:15,160 --> 00:58:18,640
Speaker 1: Marcus Peters primarily sticks on the defensive left, so they

1199
00:58:18,640 --> 00:58:21,080
Speaker 1: will not face each other much at all. I think

1200
00:58:21,080 --> 00:58:23,600
Speaker 1: he's in a big blow up spot against inferior corners

1201
00:58:23,600 --> 00:58:26,120
Speaker 1: like DJ White Philip Gaines for the for the Chiefs.

1202
00:58:26,160 --> 00:58:28,200
Speaker 1: I can't tell you how much I like Alex Smith

1203
00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:30,800
Speaker 1: as a streamer option. I got on like three or

1204
00:58:30,800 --> 00:58:34,040
Speaker 1: four leagues. Jerry McDonald, who is a beat reporter for

1205
00:58:34,200 --> 00:58:38,080
Speaker 1: the Raiders, wrote this statue. Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith seven

1206
00:58:38,080 --> 00:58:43,320
Speaker 1: and one against the Raiders, eighteen touchdown passes just three interceptions. Uh,

1207
00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:46,200
Speaker 1: and Andy Reid after a bye. I know this is

1208
00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:49,880
Speaker 1: not necessarily fantasy relevant, but he gets his boys prepared. Man,

1209
00:58:50,640 --> 00:58:54,440
Speaker 1: what is it? Fifteen and two is Andy Reid's career

1210
00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:59,360
Speaker 1: record in the week after the bye. So I just

1211
00:58:59,360 --> 00:59:02,960
Speaker 1: think they're gonna be prepared. Uh. Alex Smith has already

1212
00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:06,120
Speaker 1: torched this team a number of times. Uh. The Raiders

1213
00:59:06,200 --> 00:59:10,200
Speaker 1: defense looks like complete trash. I just I love Alex

1214
00:59:10,240 --> 00:59:12,680
Speaker 1: Smith in this matchup. I think he's gonna be a

1215
00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:15,600
Speaker 1: top ten quarterback. And that's not I don't even think

1216
00:59:15,600 --> 00:59:18,840
Speaker 1: that's a bold call at all. Uh. Falcons at Seattle, MG.

1217
00:59:19,000 --> 00:59:21,520
Speaker 1: What he got? Uh. The first thing is I love

1218
00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:23,760
Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham this week, all of the all of the

1219
00:59:23,840 --> 00:59:27,160
Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham this week. Okay, So I think that's gonna

1220
00:59:27,160 --> 00:59:29,200
Speaker 1: be used. And I do think that even Russell Wilson,

1221
00:59:29,280 --> 00:59:31,520
Speaker 1: now having had the week off, having gotten a little

1222
00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:34,479
Speaker 1: bit healthier, is going to put up a really big

1223
00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:36,919
Speaker 1: number this week. Um. You know, so that that means

1224
00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:40,120
Speaker 1: good things for certainly Doug Bald. When I mentioned Jimmy Graham,

1225
00:59:40,560 --> 00:59:42,920
Speaker 1: we keep hearing that Tyler Lockett is ticketed for a

1226
00:59:42,920 --> 00:59:45,120
Speaker 1: bigger role in the offense this week, which doesn't really

1227
00:59:46,080 --> 00:59:48,400
Speaker 1: really mean much considering how little he has done so

1228
00:59:48,480 --> 00:59:50,840
Speaker 1: far this year, but hey, let's say whatever we can get. Right.

1229
00:59:51,320 --> 00:59:53,640
Speaker 1: He's gotten healthier too, though he was here. Yeah, it

1230
00:59:53,680 --> 00:59:55,360
Speaker 1: was revealed before the bye week that he's playing through

1231
00:59:55,400 --> 00:59:59,120
Speaker 1: a PCL injury. So yeah, he should definitely be more involved.

1232
00:59:59,240 --> 01:00:01,080
Speaker 1: The other at the Falcon side, I think is a

1233
01:00:01,080 --> 01:00:04,600
Speaker 1: little more intriguing. I expect Matt Ryan to look a

1234
01:00:04,640 --> 01:00:07,280
Speaker 1: lot like he did last week against Denver, where it was,

1235
01:00:07,680 --> 01:00:09,840
Speaker 1: you know, on the football field, it was a really

1236
01:00:09,920 --> 01:00:12,680
Speaker 1: nice performance. Fantasy wise, it wasn't much to write home

1237
01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:14,960
Speaker 1: about it, thinking about fourteen fifteen points something like that

1238
01:00:15,040 --> 01:00:17,440
Speaker 1: last week. Um, and so I think you can you

1239
01:00:17,480 --> 01:00:19,560
Speaker 1: can look for similar numbers from him. I don't know

1240
01:00:19,560 --> 01:00:21,440
Speaker 1: if that's enough to warrant putting him in your starting

1241
01:00:21,440 --> 01:00:23,760
Speaker 1: line up in a lot of leagues. Um, But I mean,

1242
01:00:23,840 --> 01:00:25,680
Speaker 1: I still believe in this Falcon's offense. I think they

1243
01:00:25,680 --> 01:00:27,960
Speaker 1: have a lot more weapons, uh. And I do think

1244
01:00:28,000 --> 01:00:30,320
Speaker 1: they're gonna try to get Julio Jones more involved. I

1245
01:00:30,400 --> 01:00:33,320
Speaker 1: know that Richard Sherman is allegedly supposed to shadow him

1246
01:00:33,320 --> 01:00:35,960
Speaker 1: this week, but I just think that the Falcons can't

1247
01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:38,640
Speaker 1: be successful two weeks in a row not getting a

1248
01:00:38,640 --> 01:00:40,400
Speaker 1: lot out of Julio Jones, So I think you're gonna

1249
01:00:40,400 --> 01:00:42,400
Speaker 1: see a lot more targets his way. All right, let's

1250
01:00:42,400 --> 01:00:45,240
Speaker 1: go Cults at Texans. Harmon what you got? Yeah, this

1251
01:00:45,320 --> 01:00:47,520
Speaker 1: game is is an interesting one to figure. It's an

1252
01:00:47,520 --> 01:00:49,960
Speaker 1: important game for both teams. I mean, the Texans are

1253
01:00:49,960 --> 01:00:52,320
Speaker 1: coming off a bad loss to the Vikings and the

1254
01:00:52,360 --> 01:00:55,120
Speaker 1: Colts are, you know, kind of spinning at them themselves.

1255
01:00:55,200 --> 01:00:57,080
Speaker 1: And I think one of these two teams is gonna

1256
01:00:57,080 --> 01:00:59,040
Speaker 1: probably end up winning the division. So it's it's definitely

1257
01:00:59,080 --> 01:01:01,200
Speaker 1: gonna be an important game to watch. I think this

1258
01:01:01,400 --> 01:01:03,600
Speaker 1: is the week for Lamar Miller. And if if this

1259
01:01:03,680 --> 01:01:06,919
Speaker 1: is not the week for Lamar Miller, then it's gonna

1260
01:01:06,960 --> 01:01:09,040
Speaker 1: happen then then yet it's probably yeah, and then go

1261
01:01:09,160 --> 01:01:11,360
Speaker 1: fall on deep Street if you own Lamar Miller and

1262
01:01:11,400 --> 01:01:13,640
Speaker 1: he does not get off in this one. I mean

1263
01:01:14,240 --> 01:01:16,480
Speaker 1: the Cults have been giving up a ton of production

1264
01:01:16,520 --> 01:01:19,680
Speaker 1: to running back to the running back position. Uh, you know,

1265
01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:21,640
Speaker 1: he has been getting a ton of work. He just

1266
01:01:21,640 --> 01:01:24,160
Speaker 1: hasn't gotten in the end zone yet. Like he has

1267
01:01:24,320 --> 01:01:28,360
Speaker 1: to score a touchdown this week, Like he literally has

1268
01:01:28,800 --> 01:01:31,000
Speaker 1: he's been giving. The Colts have been giving up four

1269
01:01:31,080 --> 01:01:34,040
Speaker 1: point six yards per carry, point two yards per game,

1270
01:01:34,080 --> 01:01:37,200
Speaker 1: four touchdowns allowed. I mean, this is a bad run defense.

1271
01:01:37,280 --> 01:01:40,720
Speaker 1: You should be targeting it. In terms of the Texas receivers,

1272
01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:44,000
Speaker 1: I think, just by default, Hopkins is going to see

1273
01:01:44,040 --> 01:01:47,080
Speaker 1: more of Vante Davis. Davis has stuck primarily to right

1274
01:01:47,160 --> 01:01:50,760
Speaker 1: corner of his snap since returning. Maybe that's just a

1275
01:01:50,840 --> 01:01:53,200
Speaker 1: change in game plan or just because he's coming off

1276
01:01:53,200 --> 01:01:55,120
Speaker 1: an injury, but he's not been shadowing top guys. But

1277
01:01:55,440 --> 01:01:57,800
Speaker 1: Hopkins primarily lines up at left wide receivers. So I

1278
01:01:57,840 --> 01:01:59,320
Speaker 1: think it is a big game for Will Fuller. I

1279
01:01:59,360 --> 01:02:01,520
Speaker 1: think if you have a Fuller, you should think about

1280
01:02:01,560 --> 01:02:04,280
Speaker 1: starting him this week against the rest of the substandard

1281
01:02:04,440 --> 01:02:09,560
Speaker 1: Coults secondary. According to ESPN's Bill Barnwell, Lamar Miller entered

1282
01:02:09,600 --> 01:02:14,000
Speaker 1: Week five with more touches without a touchdown through four

1283
01:02:14,120 --> 01:02:19,880
Speaker 1: games than anybody in modern NFL history. Yeah, Like that's

1284
01:02:19,920 --> 01:02:22,400
Speaker 1: like I'm saying, like he has to score a touchdown

1285
01:02:22,520 --> 01:02:24,840
Speaker 1: even if he sucks. Like, even if if the answer

1286
01:02:24,840 --> 01:02:27,080
Speaker 1: to this Lamar Miller thing was Dolphins were right, he

1287
01:02:27,120 --> 01:02:29,880
Speaker 1: shouldn't be a workhorse back. He's not that good. He's

1288
01:02:29,880 --> 01:02:32,640
Speaker 1: still gonna score a stupid touchdown at some point. Man.

1289
01:02:32,720 --> 01:02:34,880
Speaker 1: He is averaging three point seven yards per carry. Uh.

1290
01:02:35,120 --> 01:02:38,760
Speaker 1: Coming into the season, he was over five. That's that's

1291
01:02:38,760 --> 01:02:41,480
Speaker 1: not good. That is not good. Alright, let's do daily

1292
01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:55,600
Speaker 1: DAPs to get out of here. All right, Daily dap time,

1293
01:02:55,640 --> 01:02:57,680
Speaker 1: we shall go to the whiz kid from Wisconsin, Alice

1294
01:02:57,680 --> 01:03:01,200
Speaker 1: scale Hard. What's up? Politics suck and there's too much

1295
01:03:01,200 --> 01:03:02,640
Speaker 1: of it going on right now. But I want to

1296
01:03:02,680 --> 01:03:05,680
Speaker 1: give a daily DAP to the First Lady Michelle Obama

1297
01:03:05,720 --> 01:03:08,360
Speaker 1: because strip out the reason she was giving her speech

1298
01:03:08,440 --> 01:03:10,440
Speaker 1: or what it was about, and just the words that

1299
01:03:10,520 --> 01:03:14,920
Speaker 1: came out of her mouth yesterday were fantastic and I

1300
01:03:14,960 --> 01:03:18,040
Speaker 1: thought it was a strong message that people from all

1301
01:03:18,200 --> 01:03:20,520
Speaker 1: parties and walks of life in this country should listen to.

1302
01:03:21,040 --> 01:03:22,760
Speaker 1: So daily DAPs to her for getting up in New

1303
01:03:22,760 --> 01:03:24,720
Speaker 1: Hampshire and giving that speech. I tweeted about it. Has

1304
01:03:24,720 --> 01:03:26,080
Speaker 1: can find it there. I'm sure if you just google

1305
01:03:26,120 --> 01:03:28,360
Speaker 1: Michelle Obama speech, It's been everywhere. But I just wanted

1306
01:03:28,400 --> 01:03:30,160
Speaker 1: to mention one quote and then I'll be done with it.

1307
01:03:30,520 --> 01:03:32,200
Speaker 1: But she said, we have the power to show our

1308
01:03:32,280 --> 01:03:35,480
Speaker 1: children that America's greatness comes from recognizing the innate dignity

1309
01:03:35,560 --> 01:03:37,800
Speaker 1: and worth of all our people. And I think that's

1310
01:03:37,800 --> 01:03:40,200
Speaker 1: an important thing to think about as we go through

1311
01:03:40,200 --> 01:03:42,520
Speaker 1: these times with all the differences that divide countless people,

1312
01:03:42,600 --> 01:03:46,080
Speaker 1: so daily depths to her. I feel like that speech, again,

1313
01:03:46,160 --> 01:03:48,040
Speaker 1: we have to strip out the politics of it. But

1314
01:03:48,160 --> 01:03:50,800
Speaker 1: if you were to play that speech ten years from now,

1315
01:03:50,800 --> 01:03:53,480
Speaker 1: when you're totally divorced of all you know what I

1316
01:03:53,480 --> 01:03:55,880
Speaker 1: mean the candidates throw at the head to head, listen

1317
01:03:55,920 --> 01:03:57,640
Speaker 1: to what she said in that speech again, and you

1318
01:03:57,680 --> 01:04:00,320
Speaker 1: play that in ten years from now, I've feel like

1319
01:04:00,400 --> 01:04:03,280
Speaker 1: it's going to be one of those great It's one

1320
01:04:03,280 --> 01:04:05,080
Speaker 1: that's going to be remembered, I don't think. So. I

1321
01:04:05,120 --> 01:04:07,000
Speaker 1: watched it and I got chills just listening to it,

1322
01:04:08,280 --> 01:04:11,000
Speaker 1: and she was super emotional to which which really drove

1323
01:04:11,040 --> 01:04:13,920
Speaker 1: home her message, which I thought was great. Yeah, I mean,

1324
01:04:13,920 --> 01:04:16,480
Speaker 1: I certainly hope we're not like bothering people by talking

1325
01:04:16,520 --> 01:04:18,400
Speaker 1: about this because, like you said, and a lot of

1326
01:04:18,440 --> 01:04:21,480
Speaker 1: things in from not to get all philosophical about it,

1327
01:04:21,520 --> 01:04:23,960
Speaker 1: but it's been so much more than just politics, Like, yeah,

1328
01:04:23,960 --> 01:04:26,480
Speaker 1: politics have been the tone of it, and that's that's

1329
01:04:26,520 --> 01:04:28,640
Speaker 1: always going to be important. And you know, you shouldn't

1330
01:04:28,680 --> 01:04:31,160
Speaker 1: just necessarily forget about it, but like, yeah, the underlying

1331
01:04:31,160 --> 01:04:33,600
Speaker 1: message of like human dignity and like what's what's right

1332
01:04:33,680 --> 01:04:36,480
Speaker 1: and and everybody like that's that's what I loved about

1333
01:04:36,480 --> 01:04:37,840
Speaker 1: her speech. That's why I wanted to give a daily

1334
01:04:37,880 --> 01:04:39,640
Speaker 1: dap to and it's just to remember that and everything

1335
01:04:39,640 --> 01:04:42,120
Speaker 1: we do. Like, you know, America's greatness doesn't come from

1336
01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:45,080
Speaker 1: having the biggest military or the most money or whatever.

1337
01:04:45,160 --> 01:04:48,080
Speaker 1: It comes from the innate dignity and worth of every

1338
01:04:48,080 --> 01:04:50,960
Speaker 1: single one of our citizens. Man, I love it all right.

1339
01:04:52,560 --> 01:04:55,080
Speaker 1: Uh mg, my guy Marcus Grant a couple of them

1340
01:04:55,120 --> 01:04:57,880
Speaker 1: real quick. One. I think we all get a lot

1341
01:04:57,880 --> 01:04:59,040
Speaker 1: because you know, there are a lot of people who

1342
01:04:59,080 --> 01:05:01,640
Speaker 1: are looking to break into doing what we do. And

1343
01:05:01,680 --> 01:05:03,080
Speaker 1: I think we get you know, hit up from a

1344
01:05:03,120 --> 01:05:04,600
Speaker 1: lot of people who asked us to read this or

1345
01:05:04,640 --> 01:05:06,600
Speaker 1: look at that. Every now and then I run across

1346
01:05:06,600 --> 01:05:09,160
Speaker 1: something that's really got interesting, and uh, one of them

1347
01:05:09,240 --> 01:05:12,080
Speaker 1: was the group like three sixteen year old kids, like

1348
01:05:12,160 --> 01:05:17,320
Speaker 1: high school kids Illinois on Instagram at seven fantasy that

1349
01:05:17,440 --> 01:05:20,280
Speaker 1: they're doing some really fun, kind of cool stuff on Instagram,

1350
01:05:20,320 --> 01:05:22,520
Speaker 1: which I think is kind of a sort of undiscovered

1351
01:05:22,600 --> 01:05:26,040
Speaker 1: territory from a fantasy perspective, so adapts to them. But

1352
01:05:26,120 --> 01:05:28,760
Speaker 1: my big one is I was late to the show

1353
01:05:28,880 --> 01:05:33,280
Speaker 1: Atlanta on f X, The Donald Glover Show. Um it

1354
01:05:33,400 --> 01:05:36,880
Speaker 1: is amazing. Um it it. I mean it is I

1355
01:05:36,880 --> 01:05:38,880
Speaker 1: guess build as a comedy, and there are certainly a

1356
01:05:38,920 --> 01:05:40,800
Speaker 1: lot of communic elements to it. I mean that's that's

1357
01:05:41,120 --> 01:05:44,240
Speaker 1: Glover's Wheelhouse's what he does well. But uh, it's just

1358
01:05:44,320 --> 01:05:46,480
Speaker 1: really kind of real too. I Mean, the basic premise

1359
01:05:46,600 --> 01:05:49,479
Speaker 1: is he and his cousin are trying to break into

1360
01:05:49,480 --> 01:05:52,080
Speaker 1: the hip hop industry. His cousin is a rapper and

1361
01:05:52,120 --> 01:05:54,160
Speaker 1: he's trying to promote him and manage him and whatever.

1362
01:05:54,240 --> 01:05:56,080

1380
01:06:42,040 --> 01:06:43,919
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give it. I'm gonna give it daily dap

1381
01:06:43,920 --> 01:06:46,880
Speaker 1: out to somebody that I know is listening. My dog Charlie.

1382
01:06:46,880 --> 01:06:49,760
Speaker 1: I gotta, I gotta, I gotta stop Chuck. I gotta

1383
01:06:49,840 --> 01:06:52,200
Speaker 1: dapt Charlie because it's been a rough past couple of

1384
01:06:52,240 --> 01:06:54,160
Speaker 1: days for him. On my day off on Wednesday, I

1385
01:06:54,200 --> 01:06:56,920
Speaker 1: was brushing him, as you know, I gotta keep him

1386
01:06:56,920 --> 01:06:59,240
Speaker 1: looking good, brushing him, and I found he's been like

1387
01:06:59,680 --> 01:07:02,560
Speaker 1: seem at least, for lack of a better word, looking

1388
01:07:02,600 --> 01:07:05,280
Speaker 1: at his butt for days. But he actually I discovered

1389
01:07:05,320 --> 01:07:06,560
Speaker 1: he's got like he had like a little bit of

1390
01:07:06,600 --> 01:07:09,160
Speaker 1: a tick right above his tail. He's had to pluck

1391
01:07:09,160 --> 01:07:10,600
Speaker 1: it off, and he has a bunch of dry skins.

1392
01:07:10,600 --> 01:07:12,280
Speaker 1: So he's got. He's in the cone right now, so

1393
01:07:12,320 --> 01:07:15,120
Speaker 1: that the cone of shame, and it is the most

1394
01:07:15,120 --> 01:07:17,360
Speaker 1: pathetic side of it. It's so sad, like he's a

1395
01:07:17,480 --> 01:07:20,360
Speaker 1: very energetic, happy, emotional dog. When that cone is on,

1396
01:07:20,520 --> 01:07:23,360
Speaker 1: you would think that like he just got his heart

1397
01:07:23,400 --> 01:07:26,280
Speaker 1: ripped out and he looks at you like, dude, why

1398
01:07:26,280 --> 01:07:28,280
Speaker 1: are you doing this off? And like, so I take

1399
01:07:28,320 --> 01:07:30,280
Speaker 1: it off to walk him, yeah, because he's not gonna

1400
01:07:30,280 --> 01:07:31,920
Speaker 1: scratch it before walking. But then I put it back

1401
01:07:31,920 --> 01:07:33,400
Speaker 1: on him and every time he's like, you gotta be

1402
01:07:33,440 --> 01:07:35,680
Speaker 1: kidding me. I thought that was coming off. Even like

1403
01:07:35,760 --> 01:07:37,320
Speaker 1: he was. He was laying with me last night during

1404
01:07:37,360 --> 01:07:39,400
Speaker 1: ten If normally he'll like lay or he'll be happy

1405
01:07:39,440 --> 01:07:42,160
Speaker 1: and he'll cut with you, he just like plops on you.

1406
01:07:42,360 --> 01:07:46,080
Speaker 1: He's like, I give up. So hopefully no meaning, meaningfulness

1407
01:07:46,080 --> 01:07:48,200
Speaker 1: in life anymore with the cone. So again, because I

1408
01:07:48,200 --> 01:07:50,880
Speaker 1: know he's listening. Hopefully tonight I can take the cone off.

1409
01:07:51,120 --> 01:07:53,520
Speaker 1: If the if the little scabs around where he's picking
