00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:04,000
Speaker 1: Hello everybody, Welcome into the Fantasy Pros Football Podcast. I'm

2
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:06,840
Speaker 1: Ryan Warmley, joined as am every Friday morning by Derek

3
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:09,400
Speaker 1: Brown and by Pat fitz Morris. We are talking our

4
00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:13,039
Speaker 1: week five key questions quicker minder for everybody that all

5
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:15,880
Speaker 1: of our weekly consensus rankings and tiers can be found

6
00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:18,480
Speaker 1: at fantasypros dot com slash rankings.

7
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 2: Guys, we have a couple fewer games to talk about.

8
00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:25,760
Speaker 1: We are into by season, which is frustrating when setting lineups,

9
00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 1: but it's really nice when I'm doing this show and

10
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:29,680
Speaker 1: you can kind of focus a little more on some

11
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 1: of the other matchups and not have so many games

12
00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:35,000
Speaker 1: to get through. We've got four teams on by, some

13
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 1: good fun players here. It's gonna be you know, it's

14
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 1: not buy them to get in with, you know, six

15
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 1: teams on by, but there are a lot of good players. Falcons, Packers, Bears,

16
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,879
Speaker 1: and stealers are all on By this week. So just

17
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 1: in case for some reason anybody watching missed that and

18
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,120
Speaker 1: just forgot to check that for their lineup this week,

19
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 1: go check that because there are teams that will not

20
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 1: be playing.

21
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 2: Also go check if you have.

22
00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 1: Any guys in the vikings Browns game, because we have

23
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 1: another early we could jump right into that one here

24
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,959
Speaker 1: over in London. So I will say once again and

25
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 1: we'll talk about a little bit more later. I'll say this,

26
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,959
Speaker 1: for every international game, get Fantasy Pro's autopilot. Do not

27
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,400
Speaker 1: get stuck with like a Jalen Warren situation last week

28
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 1: where it was maybe less of a true surprise.

29
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 2: In the morning that he was not playing, but.

30
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,680
Speaker 1: We know he went into Saturday night questionable ended up

31
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:24,319
Speaker 1: not playing. Alvin Kamara is really the best example from

32
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:26,959
Speaker 1: a few years ago where you got that surprise scratch

33
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,560
Speaker 1: and a lot of managers got stuck with Zeros. Autopilot

34
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 1: will help you make that not happen. It doesn't have

35
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 1: to set your whole line up for you. You can include

36
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 1: it to just do inactive players swap out. So I

37
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,759
Speaker 1: would strongly recommend that as long as these international games

38
00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:39,559
Speaker 1: are going on.

39
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 2: And even for the rest of the season.

40
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,360
Speaker 1: But that first international game for this week, the only

41
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 1: international game, like I mentioned, Vikings Browns kind of an

42
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 1: obvious question, you know, angle to hit on this one.

43
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 2: Not an easy spot for Dylan Gabriel's first career start.

44
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: Brown's finally making the change after Joe Flacco looking very

45
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 1: bad for most of this season. So Deevra, I'll start

46
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 1: with you, what are your expectations for Browns players this week?

47
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:00,919
Speaker 2: Just in general?

48
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 3: I think this is gonna be a rough game for

49
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 3: the Browns man. I think the only guy you're confidently

50
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 3: starting is quin Shawn Jupkins based off the volume, and

51
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 3: you can run against the Vikings defense. They've goiven out

52
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,959
Speaker 3: the ninth most rushing yards per game, seventh highest yards

53
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:19,160
Speaker 3: of the contact Perretten. So outside him, I don't know

54
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:20,800
Speaker 3: how the Browns are gonna move this ball, man, Like

55
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 3: I worry that, Like, why are you throwing Dylan Gabriel

56
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 3: into his first NFL career start against this freaking defense

57
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 3: where you know Brian Flores is gonna heat him up,

58
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 3: He's gonna blitz him. They're gonna have pressure him and

59
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 3: Dylan Gabriel for as much as people want to talk about,

60
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 3: like I didn't dislike him as a prospect, but I mean,

61
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:43,799
Speaker 3: very much, every part of an Oregon quarterback coming out

62
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 3: it was either screens or deep balls and manufactured stuff.

63
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,399
Speaker 3: Good luck, young sir. That's all I could say.

64
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 2: Fits.

65
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 1: What do you think and specifically what are your expectations

66
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 1: for Gabriel and this offense against a Viking's defense that

67
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: has made other quarterbacks look bad at times this year?

68
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 4: Expectations are pretty low. Worm. It is an interesting choice

69
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 4: for the Browns to make the switch to a rookie

70
00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 4: quarterback now for an overseas game against the Brian Flores defense. Like,

71
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 4: I understand that Joe Flacco got old fast and couldn't

72
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 4: remain the starter, but man, like, couldn't you wait a week?

73
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,920
Speaker 4: I suppose a road game against Pittsburgh in Week six

74
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 4: wouldn't have been that much easier. But boy, this is

75
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,679
Speaker 4: a really tough spot for Dylan Gabriel. Floras is just

76
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 4: gonna throw all sorts of exotic stuff at him, like

77
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 4: complicated blitzes, twists and stunts, simulated pressure. He'll play a

78
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 4: heavy front with like zone coverage behind it, stuff that

79
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,119
Speaker 4: Dylan Gabriel is just not going to be ready for.

80
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 4: He will be given some really complicated problems to solve

81
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 4: in his first NFL start, And because of that, like,

82
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 4: I don't really want to start any Brown's pass catchers,

83
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 4: like not Jerry Judy, not David Njoku, not Harold Fannin.

84
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 4: You're you're starting quinch on Judd for the volume, but like,

85
00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 4: if the Browns can't get first downs, it's possible Judkins

86
00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 4: only finishes with thirteen or fourteen carries, even if the

87
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 4: Browns are running at a high rate to try to

88
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 4: take heat off Gabriel. But you know, if Gabriel and

89
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 4: the Browns can't pick up first downs, it's gonna be

90
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 4: a bad day for Judkins too. I think I have

91
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,160
Speaker 4: all the Browns ranked slightly below consensus, and it's not

92
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 4: like the consensus rankings if any of these guys are

93
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 4: that high.

94
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 1: Well, I do want to ask on Judkins specifically because

95
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 1: fits I know you, you tend to be drawn towards

96
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 1: volume above everything else for some players, but there's so

97
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 1: much going against Judcke. We talked a little bit about

98
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,479
Speaker 1: this on the Thursday Show with Jake this week too,

99
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,599
Speaker 1: but just for our Friday show audience, I'm curious where

100
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 1: do you have Judkins ranked. Are you giving more credence

101
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 1: to the volume or are you more fading because of

102
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 1: he's going to get all this attention and the offense

103
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 1: is likely not going to move the ball very well.

104
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:54,719
Speaker 4: I mean I've got him running back fifteen, which I

105
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:55,600
Speaker 4: think might be like.

106
00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 2: A he's fortyen and ECR.

107
00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:02,159
Speaker 4: Yeah, so one spot behind consensus. I just as I mentioned,

108
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,359
Speaker 4: I worry. Yes, there's gonna be volume, but the volume

109
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:07,720
Speaker 4: might not be what we had hoped if the Brons

110
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 4: just can't move the ball.

111
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:12,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, let's get into the kind of main

112
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:17,120
Speaker 1: release Sunday slate here. First game up, Texans at Ravens.

113
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 1: This one is also very simple fits. The Texans offense

114
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 1: is horrific. The Ravens defense might be worse. Which unit

115
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:24,600
Speaker 1: wins that battle this week?

116
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, we talked about this on The Starts Show with

117
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 4: Jake Seely. I know you think the Ravens defense can't

118
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:36,919
Speaker 4: win a stink off against the Texans offensive line. I

119
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 4: think the Ravens defense, even it's in its injury depleted state,

120
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,799
Speaker 4: can win a stink off against the Texans offensive line.

121
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 4: I'm sure you guys have probably seen the play from

122
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 4: last week where CJ. Stroud got sacked on like the

123
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 4: second step of a seventh step drop, like his right

124
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 4: guard and right tackle just ran into each other right

125
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,400
Speaker 4: off the snap, and everyone else triple teamed one guy

126
00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 4: and I think it was Jeffrey Simmons who just blasted

127
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,719
Speaker 4: through completely unblocked. Probably a guy you should think about

128
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:07,279
Speaker 4: blocking on any sort of passing play. I know the

129
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 4: Ravens are just like defense playing poorly. Injuries galore. I

130
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 4: think Kyle Hamilton is now in doubt because of a

131
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:18,839
Speaker 4: groin injury, but were I I still think I'm taking

132
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:23,720
Speaker 4: the Ravens defense in the stinkoff. If the Tean Texans

133
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 4: light up the Ravens for thirty points in four hundred

134
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 4: and fifty yards, like you are allowed to adopt a

135
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 4: new team for the season, you have my permission.

136
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 1: I can't believe I don't have that permission already the

137
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:37,479
Speaker 1: way the first month is gone. I will say on

138
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:41,240
Speaker 1: the Ravens defense side, Debro that Kyle van Noy I

139
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 1: think is probably going to be back this week. Travis

140
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,280
Speaker 1: Jones could be back this week, so there are some

141
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 1: reinforcements coming.

142
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 2: Of course they're not.

143
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 1: You know, going into last week they still had Roquad

144
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,040
Speaker 1: and Marlon Humphrey and those guys are not going to

145
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:52,720
Speaker 1: be out. So even when you get some back, you're

146
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:57,160
Speaker 1: still missing others. Kyle Hamilton, it doesn't They didn't sound

147
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:00,480
Speaker 1: overly concerned, but just with him not practicing on a Thursday. Obviously,

148
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 1: pay attention to that, because you know, if Namdi Madawike

149
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,159
Speaker 1: wasn't the most important defender on this team, you know,

150
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 1: it clearly was Kyle Hamilton. So missing both those guys

151
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 1: would be pretty bad. But I mean, like like Fitz

152
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 1: was saying, Debro, the Texans offense has also been quite bad.

153
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 1: Like this is if a depleted defensive line is going

154
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 1: to win a battle in the trenches, it's against this

155
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 1: O line.

156
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 3: So I'll just read down the Ravens injury list here.

157
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 3: You said it at we don't have an hour, Debro,

158
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 3: Ouzia Hamilton, Humphrey Rokwan Smith, Kyle Vanoy, uh Nate Wiggins,

159
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 3: although Benoy probably is back, like you're saying, worm, but

160
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,679
Speaker 3: basically half of their starting defense. I mean, I'm taking

161
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 3: the Texans here. I know it's been rough, I know

162
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 3: it's not look good, but if they're going to show

163
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 3: life versus anybody, I mean, it's got to be against

164
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 3: the Ravens defense. So I mean, I think they have

165
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 3: enough like parts of pieces. Like however, you want to

166
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 3: dice this up, like the Ravens depleted past defense, can

167
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:59,640
Speaker 3: we get Nico Collinskip, Christian Kirk a third week in

168
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 3: the in the lineup going, it's a good matchup for

169
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 3: Dalton Schultz as well and Woody Marx. Like so, I

170
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 3: think Ray the Houston Texans are going to have some

171
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:12,480
Speaker 3: life here. I'm not saying it's gonna look pretty. I

172
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 3: will go out on a limb, and I know this

173
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 3: is not like a long and tenuous limb. I'll say

174
00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 3: the Texans will put up the most points that they

175
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 3: have put up the entire season in this game.

176
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 4: Wow, can we talk about Marx for a second. Where

177
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 4: do you have him ranked?

178
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:26,679
Speaker 2: De bro wof?

179
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 3: I got him as a strong RB two. I'm looking

180
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 3: at it right now. I've got I just moved him

181
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 3: up in ranks RB eighteen. Right now. Where do you

182
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 3: got him at FITZI?

183
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 4: I've got him down at RB twenty five. Like I just,

184
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 4: I don't know if it's a full backfield takeover. I

185
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:41,559
Speaker 4: still think it's Do.

186
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,200
Speaker 3: You think it was like a one game sample like

187
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:44,559
Speaker 3: a're you hedging a little bit with Chubb?

188
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 2: Yeah?

189
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:46,440
Speaker 4: I mean I think it's gonna be close to a

190
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,960
Speaker 4: fifty to fifty, And it was pretty close to a

191
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,439
Speaker 4: fifty to fifty last week. Honestly, Like I don't think

192
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 4: Chubb is just totally disappearing, and you know, a fifty

193
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 4: to fifty on a team with a really bad offensive line.

194
00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 4: I just don't want to rank either back all that aggressively.

195
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 4: But Marx does have pass catching isn't out, which is nice.

196
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,040
Speaker 3: That's that's kind of where I pushed the needle to

197
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 3: Marx and why I moved him up is the pass

198
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,679
Speaker 3: catching and the Ravens, even at full strength historically the

199
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 3: last two years.

200
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 2: That's exactly what I give versus receiving. They give up

201
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 2: passes to running backs even when they're healthy.

202
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,119
Speaker 3: Yep. And that's why I think Stroud like to alleviate

203
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,280
Speaker 3: any quick pressures things like that. I think Marx being

204
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 3: involved in the passing game is going to be huge

205
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 3: for them.

206
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 1: They expert consensus rankings has Mars right in the middle

207
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 1: of you two. He's already twenty one, so almost exactly

208
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 1: splitting the difference between your guys' rankings.

209
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 3: Yeah.

210
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 1: I mean, like you talk all this time about like

211
00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:39,240
Speaker 1: the trenches and everything. You know, Texas offensive line, Ravens

212
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,559
Speaker 1: defensive line, like the Ravens secondary with all those guys

213
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 1: like Nate Wiggins. If he's the limited play, Like I

214
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 1: don't know who can cover Nico Collins on this Ravens team, So.

215
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 3: Literally, who's going to be their starting corners? Like I

216
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:51,959
Speaker 3: got to pull up their depth chart, Like I don't even.

217
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 1: Know who Jyr Alexander might be back on the field

218
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,199
Speaker 1: this week, like just necessity.

219
00:09:58,000 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 3: Who's got the other two spot?

220
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,960
Speaker 2: That's I mean, I think.

221
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 3: Martin, I'm today years old finding out that you're an

222
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 3: NFL player, TJ Tampa. Okay, good luck boys.

223
00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 4: It's when you've got six starters less healthy than joy

224
00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 4: R Alexander, You're you're pretty big up.

225
00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 2: Yeah.

226
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:21,560
Speaker 1: I think it's Keon Martin by the way, not Kenyon

227
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 1: which but I'm not going to blame you for not

228
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 1: knowing the name of the undrafted, you know, rookie on

229
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:29,760
Speaker 1: the Ravens. I do have a second question on this game,

230
00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 1: just on the other side of this. Can we start

231
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 1: any Ravens if Lamar is out? I know that there

232
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: has been some talk out of you know, Baltimore this

233
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 1: week that you know, Cooper Rush is a professional. He's

234
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:40,960
Speaker 1: like nine and five in his career, so he's won

235
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 1: some games. Those were different situations he was in, Like

236
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,040
Speaker 1: I know there's there's okay players on this team, like

237
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 1: Ronnie Stanley's been banged up. The offensive line has been

238
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: so bad, like Lamar, who gets out of sacks as

239
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:54,200
Speaker 1: well as any quarterback at football, has been just getting

240
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 1: hammered behind the line of scrimmage because the offensive line

241
00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 1: has been bad. So I really worry about that for

242
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:00,679
Speaker 1: Cooper Rush, Like this be a game where they just

243
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 1: hand off to Derek Henry thirty five times because he's

244
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 1: the only like good player that they have. But I

245
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:08,240
Speaker 1: mean there's guys like Zay Flowers, Mark Andrews. I just

246
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 1: don't know how the Ravens are going to successfully get

247
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:11,880
Speaker 1: them the ball. Like I would be trying to not

248
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 1: start pretty much any Raven besides Derek Henry.

249
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 3: Honestly, Debro, you're starting Derek Henry, and you're starting Zay Flowers,

250
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:20,480
Speaker 3: and I'm not probably starting anybody else side side of them.

251
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 3: Like I've seen people online like asking me, like, oh,

252
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 3: Cooper Rush might feed Mark Andrews. I'm like, the Ravens

253
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 3: don't even want to feed Mark Andrews. Like the first

254
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 3: game with Isaiah likely his route share drop below sixty percent,

255
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,360
Speaker 3: Like I don't know why that keeps happening, but it's happening.

256
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 3: So I think you're starting Derek Henry for the volume

257
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,560
Speaker 3: because you can't ever sit him because of course, like

258
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 3: this is the game where he rips off like a

259
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 3: sixty year run for a touchdown. And you're starting Zay

260
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 3: Flowers because again, I think the volume is going to

261
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 3: be there for him. But outside of that, no, no

262
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 3: tertiary pieces for me. For the Ravens honestly fits.

263
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:52,880
Speaker 1: I don't even really want to start Flowers if I

264
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 1: can avoid it, because this Texans defense is really quite good,

265
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:57,679
Speaker 1: and again, like the Ravens offensive.

266
00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 3: Line stings banged up.

267
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:01,440
Speaker 1: That kind of helps, that's true, But I just worry

268
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 1: about the Texans pass rush. Honestly, I think I think

269
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,800
Speaker 1: rush is going to be like under under fire And

270
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:07,160
Speaker 1: a lot of this game fits.

271
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I have save Flowers down at wide

272
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:12,959
Speaker 4: receiver twenty. But in a week with four teams on

273
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:16,079
Speaker 4: buy and a lot of wide receiver injuries, I mean

274
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:18,679
Speaker 4: guys like, yeah, some of the players we've lost a

275
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:20,800
Speaker 4: wide receiver, I think you have to start no Mike

276
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,160
Speaker 4: Evans this week, No Molik Neighbors.

277
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 3: No.

278
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:27,439
Speaker 4: So I do think you play him and believe it

279
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 4: or not. I actually have bet the over on Cooper

280
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 4: Rush passing yardage, which was one hundred and eighty five

281
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:37,719
Speaker 4: point five yards on hard rock bets as of Thursday night,

282
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 4: really low. And like, Rush made eight starts for the

283
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 4: Cowboys last year after Dak Prescott got hurt at mid season,

284
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 4: and Cooper Rush averaged two hundred and nine point six

285
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,400
Speaker 4: passing yards in those starts, and that included a forty

286
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 4: five yard game against the Eagles, So he had some

287
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,400
Speaker 4: pretty good days as a passer. And like, I don't

288
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,160
Speaker 4: know about you, weren but I still happen to think

289
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:57,960
Speaker 4: Todd Munkin is a pretty good play.

290
00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 2: Card I do. I do like munket that that is

291
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 2: a good point.

292
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:04,679
Speaker 1: All right, let's go to the next game, Dolphins at Panthers.

293
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 2: Fits.

294
00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 1: I'll start with you which Dolphins And I say Dolphins

295
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,200
Speaker 1: because it could be more than one, but if there

296
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 1: is just one you want to kind of own in on,

297
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 1: that's fine too. But which Dolphins benefit the most in

298
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,160
Speaker 1: fantasy value from Tyreek Hill's injury.

299
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 4: I'm gonna start with Malik Washington. Like he's been pretty

300
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,840
Speaker 4: heavily involved in the Miami offense even before the Tyreek

301
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:27,440
Speaker 4: Hill injury. Malik Washington has played at least twenty eight

302
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,199
Speaker 4: snaps in every game, with snap shares in like the

303
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 4: fifty to sixty percent range. And Malik Washington is a

304
00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 4: short area receiver. His average depth of target is five

305
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,160
Speaker 4: point one yards. The Dolphins kind of have to do

306
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,560
Speaker 4: a lot of quick hitting stuff to protect Tua, Like

307
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 4: you can't have Tua taking a lot of seven step drops.

308
00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 4: So Washington is a pretty good fit for this offense,

309
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:49,840
Speaker 4: and they get him involved as a runner too. He

310
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 4: has eight carries for sixty yards this year. This dude's good.

311
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 4: Like in his final college she's in at Virginia, Malik

312
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,320
Speaker 4: Washington had one hundred and ten catches, which I think

313
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:04,760
Speaker 4: is an AC record for fourteen hundred and twenty six yards. No,

314
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 4: I do think it's possible Nick Westbrook Akine and not

315
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:12,079
Speaker 4: Malik Washington plays more on with Jalen Waddle in two

316
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,360
Speaker 4: receiver sets because like Westbrook a Kine is really the

317
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 4: only big receiver the Dolphins have. He's six to two

318
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 4: two eleven. Malik Washington is like five eight one eighty five.

319
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 4: But Westbrook a Kinne has never really been a high

320
00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:28,720
Speaker 4: volume target earner. And through four weeks, Malik Washington has

321
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 4: outsnapped Westbrook A Kine one hundred and twenty four to

322
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:36,000
Speaker 4: seventy nine. So I think Maleik Washington is like a

323
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 4: sneaky play this week. I've got him wide receiver thirty

324
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:42,400
Speaker 4: six in the rankings. Jalen Wattle probably gains a little value.

325
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 4: Darren Waller, who had two touchdown catches on only sixteen

326
00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 4: snaps last week. He becomes a playable tight end option,

327
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 4: and Devon Chan might just go into Christian McCaffrey mode

328
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 4: where he's catching ten passes every week.

329
00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 1: Deebro, who stands I mean, obviously it's the names that

330
00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 1: fits just mentioned. Who stands out most of you as

331
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,560
Speaker 1: the guy? Is it Washington? Is it Waller? At tight end?

332
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 1: Is it is it Waddle just going supernova and getting

333
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 1: as many targets as he can he can handle?

334
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 2: The same for Hm. Where do you go with this?

335
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 3: I mean, I think it's Waddle and Waller For me,

336
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm not disagreeing with FITZI on Malik Washington.

337
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 3: He's gonna get a lot more relevance in the weeks

338
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:20,560
Speaker 3: to come, But I think it's Waddle like in the

339
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 3: sense that They're gonna have to run the passing offense

340
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:25,240
Speaker 3: through him, and that's something Miami has been so reluctant

341
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:27,960
Speaker 3: to do, like with Tyreek Hill around Joe and Wattle's

342
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:29,960
Speaker 3: not sniffing a twenty five percent target chair and he

343
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 3: should be, so now they're going to be forced to

344
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,560
Speaker 3: feed him a twenty five percent target chair because he

345
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 3: deserves it, and he's the clear number one option in

346
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:40,360
Speaker 3: this passing attack. So I think Waddle's gonna stand the most,

347
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:43,960
Speaker 3: Like I've got him right now as wide receiver seventeen,

348
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 3: and it I'm not worried about because Carolina plays so

349
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,320
Speaker 3: much zone coverage. Jac Horn's not gonna shadow him or

350
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 3: anything like that. They're gonna move him around the formation

351
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 3: and get him off a Horn who has honestly been

352
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 3: freaking amazing this year. But Waddle I think benefits a

353
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 3: ton and Darren Waller or like, I think his snapshare

354
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:03,600
Speaker 3: is going to go up like last year he only

355
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 3: our last week he only had a thirty seven percent

356
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 3: route chare. I think that's probably gonna creep into like

357
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 3: the fifty or sixty percent range. And honestly, if you

358
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 3: were going to tell me like I've got to look

359
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 3: at where I've got him ranked this week. Fitzy, where

360
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 3: do you have Waller rank this week? Because I know

361
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 3: we were talking about this earlier in the week. Where

362
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 3: have you come down on him?

363
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:24,359
Speaker 4: Tight end fourteen, one spot ahead of Mark Andrews.

364
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've got him inside my top fifteen tight ends.

365
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 3: I might bump him up a little bit more only

366
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 3: because do this is arguably the nut spot for tight

367
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:36,200
Speaker 3: ends like Carolina Carolina ninth ninth most fantasy points per game,

368
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,920
Speaker 3: second most receiving arts to tight ends. So even at

369
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,000
Speaker 3: like a fifty to sixty percent route, heare like the

370
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:44,520
Speaker 3: Daltkinkaid kind of roll. He's going to be targeted a

371
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 3: ton and I'm not telling you he gets two touchdowns.

372
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 3: But if you're struggling at tight end, Darren Waller's worth

373
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:50,840
Speaker 3: to start this week.

374

Speaker 1: the AFC. Or if you want a sleeper, Kareem Hunt

409
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:14,879
Speaker 2: Yes to the two of you.

410
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 1: I have seen Hunt for Red October, very very good movie.

411
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:23,960
Speaker 3: Surprised, I will say I'm a little bit surprised. Not

412
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:24,480
Speaker 3: gonna lie.

413
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: I want to throw just a quick actually second question

414
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,280
Speaker 1: on the game you're just talking about. Is this the

415
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:31,960
Speaker 1: week that Tedoro McMillan finally catches a touchdown?

416
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:33,200
Speaker 2: Yes or no? It's hebro.

417
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,000
Speaker 3: I think it is only because Caroline has been trying

418
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:38,439
Speaker 3: to force feed him the ball. He's got three red

419
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,520
Speaker 3: zone targets in his last two games. And if you're

420
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,040
Speaker 3: over at hard Rock Bet right now, they've got the

421
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,120
Speaker 3: best odds on the board for him as an any

422
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:48,119
Speaker 3: time touchdown score plus one seventy five. So count me in.

423
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:49,440
Speaker 2: Fits.

424
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:53,880
Speaker 4: I want to say yes, but there's hesitance in your voice.

425
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:54,879
Speaker 3: FITZI I hear it.

426
00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:58,239
Speaker 4: I know, I like. I mean, McMillan's been playing so

427
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:02,640
Speaker 4: well under adverse circumc chances, but I think the realistically,

428
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 4: the better percentage plays that he does not score a touchdown.

429
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,400
Speaker 1: Let's go to the next game here, Raiders at Colts.

430
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,479
Speaker 1: Was week four what we can expect from Ashton Genty

431
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 1: moving forward or was he just taking advantage of the

432
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:17,560
Speaker 1: Bears defense?

433
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:18,000
Speaker 2: Debro.

434
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,040
Speaker 3: I think it was partially the Bears defense. But I

435
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:24,439
Speaker 3: think we can in the magic can continue for at

436
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 3: least another week because Indy's rush defense has not been good.

437
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,159
Speaker 3: Eighth highest explosive run rate, fifth highest yards before contact

438
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,600
Speaker 3: or attempt And that's really the metric that I want

439
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 3: to highlight for gent when he's not getting a lot

440
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:38,760
Speaker 3: of help by his offensive line. And it's amazing that

441
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:42,159
Speaker 3: when we get a matchup where finally Ashton Genty's not

442
00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:45,879
Speaker 3: hitting the backfield almost every single carry, some of the

443
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 3: talking heads of media out there talking about he's a bust,

444
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 3: he was terrible, He's not generational, he's not a great

445
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,520
Speaker 3: player and stuff like that. I don't see them chirping

446
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,720
Speaker 3: about that this week, And I'll say Genty continues this week,

447
00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:59,400
Speaker 3: although he's going to be very matchup sensitive just because

448
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 3: the offensive line that he's running behind this year.

449
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 1: Fitz, what do you expect out of Genty for his

450
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:05,120
Speaker 1: follow up from that big breakout game?

451
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 4: Deebro touched on it. Even with the big day last

452
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 4: week against the Bears, one hundred and fifty five yards

453
00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:15,439
Speaker 4: from scrimmage and three touchdowns. And you know, even with

454
00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:18,960
Speaker 4: that matchup against a bad Chicago run defense, defenders still

455
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:21,680
Speaker 4: made contact with Ashton Genty behind the line of scrimmage

456
00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:25,239
Speaker 4: on like seventy percent of his runs last week. And

457
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 4: now the Raiders are going to be without starting tackle

458
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,879
Speaker 4: Colton Miller, probably their best offensive lineman. He's on ir

459
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:34,679
Speaker 4: now with an ankle injury. Genty is awesome. He's just

460
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:38,800
Speaker 4: he's so hard to tackle with his amazing contact balance

461
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:41,919
Speaker 4: and all the little shakes and shimmies he gives you.

462
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:44,119
Speaker 4: But there's still going to be some rough days just

463
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:46,280
Speaker 4: because the Raiders offensive line is so shaky.

464
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:48,680
Speaker 2: We went kind of quick on that game.

465
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:50,879
Speaker 1: So let me take this opportunity to say that I

466
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 1: meant to ask you guys about Thursday Night Football last

467
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 1: night and totally forgot at the top of the show.

468
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:56,439
Speaker 1: So I do just want to quickly give you the

469
00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:00,160
Speaker 1: opportunity to weigh in on that game twenty six twenty

470
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 1: in overtime forty nine ers. I mean, the game itself,

471
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:05,640
Speaker 1: you know, less relevant, but just from fantasy perspective, you know, obviously,

472
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 1: like both passing games were really productive in this one.

473
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,520
Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford three hundred and eighty nine yards and three touchdowns,

474
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,159
Speaker 1: no picks. Mac Jones, despite dealing with you know, the

475
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,639
Speaker 1: injury stuff three hundred and forty two yards, two touchdowns,

476
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 1: no picks. Running games were pretty inefficient. Both running backs,

477
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 1: you know, they combined to catch The starting running backs

478
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:25,119
Speaker 1: combined to catch three touchdowns in this one to kind of,

479
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:27,159
Speaker 1: you know, help their day a lot as well. Kendrick

480
00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,959
Speaker 1: Bourne ten catches, one hundred and forty two yards, Puka

481
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:31,959
Speaker 1: and DeVante doing their usual stuff. That's kind of run

482
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 1: through the of the box score with you, bro, Were

483
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:35,720
Speaker 1: there any kind of major fantasy takeaways from Thursday Night

484
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:36,719
Speaker 1: Football you wanted to hit on?

485
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:40,680
Speaker 3: Good Lord, can any rams running back, hold onto the

486
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:45,359
Speaker 3: freaking ball, Like, I mean, Kyron drops the ball on

487
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 3: the turf, doesn't a good taken off the field? Blake

488
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,159
Speaker 3: Korm does it once and we don't. He gets shoved

489
00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 3: into the shadow realm. I don't know what Kyron has

490
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:56,800
Speaker 3: on Sean McVay, Like, has he got like, you know,

491
00:21:56,840 --> 00:22:00,159
Speaker 3: incriminating pictures of some sort. I don't know, but he

492
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 3: could seem to do no wrong. I'm kind of curious.

493
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 3: I'm curious if we see more of a backfield split

494
00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,439
Speaker 3: because we've seen that kind of like in the works.

495
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:09,760
Speaker 3: But Kyan's pass game role has been surprising over the

496
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 3: last few weeks, especially last night. Tons of targets, lots

497
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:17,880
Speaker 3: of usage out of the backfield. I'll throw this back

498
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:21,359
Speaker 3: to you, boys. Is Matthew Stafford a top twelve quarterback

499
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:25,360
Speaker 3: or it fringe moving forward because he's playing elite level

500
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:27,960
Speaker 3: football and he's got two alpha wide receivers.

501
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 4: In fantasy I mean in fantasy borderline if everyone, if

502
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:35,160
Speaker 4: there are.

503
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,199
Speaker 3: No buys, they stay healthy.

504
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, coming into this game, obviously lit it

505
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 4: up on Thursday Night Football, but coming into this game,

506
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:44,440
Speaker 4: I think he was at like two hundred and sixty

507
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:46,640
Speaker 4: nine passing yards a game and two and a half

508
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 4: touchdown passes a game, which was I think he's tied

509
00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:54,280
Speaker 4: for the lead league lead or was coming into last

510
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,600
Speaker 4: night's game and could be leading after this week. Yeah,

511
00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,840
Speaker 4: I mean I think he's real. I do think he's

512
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 4: sort of a fringe lowing QB one high in QB

513
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 4: two just so we just know we're getting zero rushing upside.

514
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:10,800
Speaker 4: But the guy I want to talk about is like

515
00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,879
Speaker 4: Mac Jones, Like that was a heroic effort. I mean

516
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 4: they were practically like dragging that guy off the field

517
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,639
Speaker 4: after some of those series and like, oh got it,

518
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 4: he's done, And then he would come back out for

519
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:25,439
Speaker 4: the next series and be completing throws to Kendrick Bourne,

520
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:28,359
Speaker 4: who like looked like a star last night. It was

521
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 4: a fun game and interesting game. And I wonder about

522
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:33,800
Speaker 4: Mac Jones, like if there is a possibility that he

523
00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,880
Speaker 4: could have like a Sam Darnold career arc where he's

524
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:41,119
Speaker 4: rejuvenated in free agencies, like some team tries to do

525
00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:45,639
Speaker 4: quarterback in the cheap and like gives Mac Jones a

526
00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:49,440
Speaker 4: shot because he's either like he's either a bottom ten

527
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:53,560
Speaker 4: starting quarterback somewhere or he's the best backup quarterback in

528
00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:56,400
Speaker 4: the league, but like he can actually play a little bit.

529
00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 4: I don't think he's terrible. I don't think he's ever

530
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:01,440
Speaker 4: going to be a star, but like he showed last night,

531
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:02,320
Speaker 4: he can be functional.

532
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:04,160
Speaker 2: Fit.

533
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,840
Speaker 1: Weekly finishes for Matthew Stafford, deebro to your point on him,

534
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,639
Speaker 1: QB twenty, QB nineteen, QB fourteen, the first three weeks,

535
00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:14,560
Speaker 1: last two, QB two, and then what we saw last night,

536
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 1: which will be you know, a very high finish. Obviously

537
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:18,719
Speaker 1: there's a full week to go, but he scored over

538
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,959
Speaker 1: twenty five fantasy points, so he will be, you know,

539
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,080
Speaker 1: quite high wherever he ends up this week. So three

540
00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 1: non QB one type weeks, but two like top five

541
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:31,000
Speaker 1: at least probably you would think.

542
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 4: And by the way, the Rams are the dream team

543
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,880
Speaker 4: for fantasy football because it's like you're starting Pooka every

544
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:39,360
Speaker 4: week and he's a monster. Every week. You're starting DeVante

545
00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,120
Speaker 4: and he usually does well. You're starting Kirrin every week,

546
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,920
Speaker 4: no matter what your beef with him is, like more

547
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:47,320
Speaker 4: often than not, he puts up points, and you know,

548
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:49,520
Speaker 4: then Stafford is absolutely playable.

549
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 1: By the way, the Rams next week on extra rest,

550
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:56,600
Speaker 1: get that Ravens defense, so he'll be wanting to rank

551
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:58,920
Speaker 1: it very highly going into week six.

552
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:01,639
Speaker 3: I'll go ahead and apologize right now.

553
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:04,320
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, honestly, Like the pressure is off once Lamar

554
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:06,159
Speaker 1: is heard. It's like, okay, this seems just bad. So

555
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,399
Speaker 1: like it, it become almost goes emotionally easier to deal with.

556
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:13,040
Speaker 1: Let's go to Giants at Saints. Speaking of favorite teams,

557
00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:17,359
Speaker 1: Debro Jackson Dart looked great in his first start, but

558
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,359
Speaker 1: he also lost his best weapon for the season when

559
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:22,440
Speaker 1: Malik Neighbors went down. So I'm curious both where Dart

560
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,399
Speaker 1: is ranked amongst quarterbacks for Week five for you fits,

561
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:27,119
Speaker 1: but also for rest of season.

562
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:31,160
Speaker 4: Yeah. By the way, uh Deebro's boy, Jackson Dart going

563
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,320
Speaker 4: against his team, Debro's gonna be dialed.

564
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 3: He rubs it in their faces. Go ahead, Betsy, I'll

565
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:39,040
Speaker 3: get to it in a second.

566
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 4: I've got him QB fifteen this week in QB twenty

567
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,680
Speaker 4: rest of season. Like, the rushing numbers are gonna be good,

568
00:25:45,320 --> 00:25:48,600
Speaker 4: and he is a really aggressive runner, typically one read

569
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 4: if it's not there, he takes off. The passing numbers,

570
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,200
Speaker 4: especially with Malik Neighbors out, will not be good.

571
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 2: This season Debro.

572
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,280
Speaker 3: QB eleven for this week and I've got him QB

573
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:04,240
Speaker 3: eighteen for the rest of the season. Like the rushing

574
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,399
Speaker 3: is definitively there, the passing is going to be up

575
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:09,640
Speaker 3: and down considering what matchups they have now, this one's

576
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:12,360
Speaker 3: a really good one for Jackson Dart. Saints have given

577
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:15,360
Speaker 3: up the six highest yards per ten, third most passing touchdowns.

578
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,520
Speaker 3: I think last week too, like what you could talk about,

579
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:22,200
Speaker 3: like the defensive matchup for Jackson Dart, but also when

580
00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:26,320
Speaker 3: your best receiving threat in your offense goes out in

581
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:29,360
Speaker 3: the middle of the game, your entire game plan, especially

582
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 3: through the air, we know is based around elite neighbors.

583
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:33,560
Speaker 3: So when that happens in the middle of the game,

584
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 3: it is just try to survive and do the best

585
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:39,640
Speaker 3: you can to either sit on the lead and lean

586
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,080
Speaker 3: on their defense and run the ball and get out

587
00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:44,160
Speaker 3: of there with a win. So for this one, they've

588
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,959
Speaker 3: had a whole week to kind of prepare. Darius Slayton

589
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 3: last year without elite Neighbors in the lineup, dude, he

590
00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,240
Speaker 3: got an elite neighbors treatment. He got like a twenty

591
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:54,920
Speaker 3: nine percent target chare. This is a really good matchup

592
00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:56,639
Speaker 3: to sit her and feature him. And I'm not saying

593
00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:58,959
Speaker 3: every week is going to be like that, but if

594
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,400
Speaker 3: you're gonna if you want Jackson Dart playing the best

595
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,639
Speaker 3: football we can, this is the type of matchup where

596
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:08,200
Speaker 3: you open up the passing game some and you allow

597
00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 3: the kid to learn on the job. I hope Jackson

598
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:14,080
Speaker 3: Dart just rubs it in their faces. I hope he

599
00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:15,560
Speaker 3: makes them rude the day of the fact that they

600
00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:19,400
Speaker 3: passed on him, took Tyler Shuck, who is not starting

601
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:23,200
Speaker 3: for this team this week. Their second round pick is

602
00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:26,399
Speaker 3: not starting for this team this week. I hope Jackson

603
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:28,240
Speaker 3: Dart rubs it in their faces that they did not

604
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 3: draft him. But I really, really, really do.

605
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:33,280
Speaker 2: They didn't need a starting quarterback. They have Spencer Rayler.

606
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:38,919
Speaker 3: Oh dude. Whenever that happened, we were live on the

607
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:42,720
Speaker 3: draft coverage. Like I just I absolved myself of all

608
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:45,640
Speaker 3: Saints fandom until Loomis is gone. He is a buffoon,

609
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:50,399
Speaker 3: a moron. I cannot stand every He's basically given away

610
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 3: all their picks for players that aren't even starting on

611
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,960
Speaker 3: the freaking team. Like, let's go sign Brandon Cooks. He's

612
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 3: a nothing burger. Let's go trade for Devon Valley. He's

613
00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:01,520
Speaker 3: not starting like it. Oh, it's ridiculous.

614
00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:05,359
Speaker 1: What do you think fits of Skataboo without neighbors, Like,

615
00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 1: do you worry that things will kind of get condensed

616
00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:10,359
Speaker 1: a bit in the passing game and it'll become harder

617
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:12,399
Speaker 1: for him to run? Or all right, do you just

618
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:14,399
Speaker 1: think like he's good, he's gonna get the volume and Mike,

619
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:15,119
Speaker 1: don't overthink it.

620
00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:17,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean you have to worry about that. It

621
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:21,960
Speaker 4: seemed like the Chargers were throwing some pretty heavy boxes

622
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 4: at Skataboo last week. He almost got into the end

623
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 4: zone a couple of times, though there was one I

624
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:29,679
Speaker 4: think he got stood up by Derwin James at the

625
00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:33,280
Speaker 4: goal line. Once there was another Charger defender I forget

626
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 4: who made a real nice like they had to play

627
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:38,240
Speaker 4: where they got Scataboo out wide and he just had

628
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 4: one man to beat. But the guy made a really nice,

629
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 4: uh sort of diving low tackle on Skataboo and just

630
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 4: got enough of him to knock him off his feet.

631
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:46,600
Speaker 3: Man.

632
00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:50,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, Like it will be pretty hard and he might

633
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 4: not be super efficient, Like I don't think he's averaging

634
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:57,400
Speaker 4: five yards of carry this season but man like he

635
00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 4: is just such a warhorse. You can just keep giving

636
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 4: him the and that guy is just a tank.

637
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 3: Can we talk about the vibes for the Giants too

638
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:08,800
Speaker 3: with Dart and Scataboo, Like their entire team dynamic and

639
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:12,120
Speaker 3: vibes felt totally different last week, like they were feeding

640
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 3: off the energy of these two guys. You could see,

641
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:17,840
Speaker 3: like I watched that entire game and it was so

642
00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:18,800
Speaker 3: much fun to watch.

643
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:21,040
Speaker 4: Now, when is it gonna happen for them on defense?

644
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:24,840
Speaker 4: Because like it should be happening. There were with Abduel Carter, Yeah,

645
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 4: and Kevon Thibadeau and Brian Burns and Dexter Lawrence, Like

646
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 4: why is this defense not better?

647
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:31,120
Speaker 3: I don't know, We'll see.

648
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 1: Let's go to Cowboys at Jets. By the way, just

649
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 1: quick note because it got tweeted while we were recording this.

650
00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:40,080
Speaker 1: Briylan Allen, according to Aaron Glenn, is expected to miss

651
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:44,440
Speaker 1: eight to twelve weeks. Surgery is still on the table.

652
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 1: Per for Aaron Glenn.

653
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:50,719
Speaker 4: What why do you have a guy who is an

654
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:55,920
Speaker 4: important player in your offense returning kickoffs? Like why like

655
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 4: put the you.

656
00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:00,160
Speaker 2: Know nobody but nobody will fit us.

657
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 4: This use the cannon fodder on kickoffs.

658
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 1: Nobody will remember this fits, but Dante Dimas the year

659
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:09,200
Speaker 1: he was like basically poised to be a first team

660
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,560
Speaker 1: All Big ten wide receiver Maryland I was. I was

661
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 1: at Maryland Iowa.

662
00:30:13,080 --> 00:30:13,240
Speaker 2: Game.

663
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:15,440
Speaker 1: Is this big night game, you know, really exciting. Maryland's

664
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 1: you know, back on the map or whatever. And Dante

665
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:18,600
Speaker 1: Dimas was.

666
00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:20,280
Speaker 2: Returning kickoff or something. He's not even that type of

667
00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:20,920
Speaker 2: player he was.

668
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 1: He's like a Mike Evans type player, like big, like

669
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:25,280
Speaker 1: you know at the College of like big body, you

670
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:27,800
Speaker 1: know what. And he was returning kickoffs and he was

671
00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:30,200
Speaker 1: never the same. His career was basically ruined because his

672
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:33,000
Speaker 1: knee was destroyed on a kickoff return. I have a

673
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,000
Speaker 1: thought about that every time I see good players returning

674
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 1: returning kicks ever since.

675
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, if you want to do it in a playoff game, okay,

676
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:43,080
Speaker 4: But like in an early season game, I just don't understand.

677
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 4: And it's not like Brailan Olt, like Brailan Allen never

678
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 4: return kickoffs in college.

679
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,600
Speaker 1: I do not understand. I do not see the upside.

680
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:51,760
Speaker 1: It drives me nuts when I see it happen.

681
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 3: Stupid.

682
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:55,680
Speaker 1: So in this game, I thought this was an interesting

683
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 1: one because I sat down trying to think of a

684
00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:59,120
Speaker 1: good question for it, and I felt like most players,

685
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,120
Speaker 1: especially with you know, Brandon Allen out, most bearers feel

686
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 1: pretty straightforward in this matchup, like where where they rank

687
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:06,240
Speaker 1: is kind of obvious. So I wanted to kind of

688
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,160
Speaker 1: put it on you guys and ask who is the

689
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,520
Speaker 1: toughest player in this game? For each of you to

690
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 1: rank and deeper we can go with you first.

691
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,080
Speaker 3: I feel like I'm over the moon with this guy,

692
00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:17,480
Speaker 3: and maybe I'm just drinking too much of moll and

693
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:19,280
Speaker 3: kool aid here and Fitz He's gonna have to like

694
00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:20,840
Speaker 3: pull me back a little bit because I've been talking

695
00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:22,640
Speaker 3: about him in the Waiver Wire article over the last

696
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,480
Speaker 3: like two to three freaking weeks. But after the breakout

697
00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:28,280
Speaker 3: week that we saw from Mason Taylor, I've got him

698
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,560
Speaker 3: as a top twelve tight end this week, and he's

699
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,680
Speaker 3: the guy where it's like versus ECR. I'm like ECR

700
00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 3: as him as a mid tight end two.

701
00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 2: I'm twenty one in ECR by the way.

702
00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:40,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, man, But look like last week he got a

703
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:43,520
Speaker 3: twenty five point nine percent target chair, he had a

704
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 3: thirty three percent first read cheer if the ball is

705
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 3: not going to freaking gear Wilson. It's going to Mason Taylor.

706
00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 3: And I know he's limited in practice this week and stuff,

707
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:55,720
Speaker 3: but I think the usage of the last two weeks

708
00:31:56,040 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 3: shows us that he's getting healthier. And I said in

709
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,560
Speaker 3: the offseason they need a second pass game weapon to

710
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,160
Speaker 3: step up. There's not a ton of volume in this

711
00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 3: passing attack, but there's enough to support two weapons. And

712
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:12,400
Speaker 3: I look at the matchup like, I think Mason Taylor

713
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:15,600
Speaker 3: should be a tight end one this week. But ECR

714
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 3: says I am totally wrong. FITZI am I crazy.

715
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,760
Speaker 4: I've got him ranked right at ECR. I should probably

716
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 4: move him up to like tight ends seventeen, ahead of

717
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 4: the two Browns tight ends who I have no interest

718
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:33,360
Speaker 4: in using a Yeah, it was the usage just been encouraging.

719
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,400
Speaker 4: He looked good in that game against the Dolphins, like

720
00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:39,720
Speaker 4: he did not look like a rookie, So I'm open

721
00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:44,200
Speaker 4: to it. I mean, I always I don't know if

722
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 4: I can trust any pass catcher in that offense other

723
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:49,880
Speaker 4: than Garret Wilson, just because I don't trust Justin Fields.

724
00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:51,840
Speaker 3: I guess my The thing here is do you trust

725
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:54,640
Speaker 3: Travis Kelsey Moore? Do you trust Mark Andrews more, like

726
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:57,360
Speaker 3: do you trust TJ. Hockinson more? Do we trust any

727
00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:00,200
Speaker 3: of those other guys, like more than a guy that's

728
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:03,920
Speaker 3: in a consolidated passing attack versus veterans that are not

729
00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:07,120
Speaker 3: getting targets. Have backup quarterbacks and we're worried about matchups.

730
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:11,680
Speaker 4: Patrick Mahomes is a backup quarterback. You mentioned Travis k

731
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:14,080
Speaker 4: I still think he's a little bit better.

732
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,160
Speaker 3: In the Washington Old and can't do anything with.

733
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:19,280
Speaker 1: This now, but I would rather start Mason Taylor than

734
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:21,520
Speaker 1: Mark Andrews to that point about you know, I mean.

735
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:24,520
Speaker 3: Seriously, Mark Andrews with Cooper Rush, like we feel better

736
00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:24,920
Speaker 3: about that.

737
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:32,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean track record to some extent, Like I

738
00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 4: agree on maybe ranking Mason Taylor too long. I'm just

739
00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:39,880
Speaker 4: I guess I need a little bit, just a little

740
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:40,480
Speaker 4: bit longer in on.

741
00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:43,240
Speaker 3: You need another game with twenty six percent target share?

742
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:45,880
Speaker 3: H FITZI that wouldn't be bad. I mean, I'm just

743
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:47,640
Speaker 3: I'm just saying, like I'm throwing it out there because

744
00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:51,720
Speaker 3: I'm like his usage, the matchup, the high total, it

745
00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:53,680
Speaker 3: all kind of lines up for me. But again, maybe

746
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:55,080
Speaker 3: I'm drinking too much among kool aid.

747
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:57,320
Speaker 2: So fits. Who's the player that's toughest for you to

748
00:33:57,400 --> 00:33:58,040
Speaker 2: rank in this game?

749
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:01,040
Speaker 4: I mean, for me, it was both quarter Like It's

750
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:04,720
Speaker 4: just it's really uncomfortable to rank Justin Fields as a

751
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:08,200
Speaker 4: top five QB and I have him QB five knowing

752
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,400
Speaker 4: what he looks like as a passer on his bad days,

753
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:13,080
Speaker 4: like in Week two against the Bills, Fields had three

754
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 4: completions for twenty seven yards. Got knocked out of that

755
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:18,600
Speaker 4: game with a concussion, but he wasn't knocked out until

756
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:21,480
Speaker 4: early in the fourth quarter, like he had three completions

757
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:25,760
Speaker 4: in three quarters. But obviously like Fields as wildly productive

758
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:29,279
Speaker 4: as a runner averages fifty nine rushing yards as three

759
00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:33,600
Speaker 4: touchdown runs in three games. And the Cowboys pass defense

760
00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:36,240
Speaker 4: is they're giving up three hundred and nine passing yards

761
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:39,080
Speaker 4: a game and like nine point two yards per attempt,

762
00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:44,279
Speaker 4: So great setup for sure for Fields. And then like

763
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:48,239
Speaker 4: Dak Prescott was just incredible against the Packers. That had

764
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:50,360
Speaker 4: to be one of the best games of Dak's career.

765
00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:53,080
Speaker 4: He was just so good in that game. The inclination

766
00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:55,160
Speaker 4: is to rank him highly after such a good game,

767
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,200
Speaker 4: and he did it without CD Lamb. But the fact

768
00:34:58,320 --> 00:35:01,280
Speaker 4: is he still doesn't have CD lamb M. George Pickens

769
00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:03,000
Speaker 4: is going to be seeing a lot of Sauce Gardner

770
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:06,120
Speaker 4: and the Cowboys are missing a bunch of starting offensive linemen.

771
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:09,440
Speaker 4: Cooper Bebe and Tyler Booker are out, and Tyler Geiton

772
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:12,319
Speaker 4: has a concussion. I'm not sure whether he's playing. So

773
00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:14,960
Speaker 4: I have DAK QB twelve and I'm just I'm not

774
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:17,160
Speaker 4: sure whether that's too high, too low, or just right.

775
00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:19,200
Speaker 3: Can I make you feel a little bit better about

776
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 3: dak uh FITZI sure. So the Jets have the third

777
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,160
Speaker 3: lowest pressure rate, so that's going to help the Dallas

778
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:28,200
Speaker 3: offensive line. They're playing more too high over the last

779
00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:31,240
Speaker 3: two weeks, less man coverage, so Sauce is not going

780
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:34,480
Speaker 3: to shadow George Pickens. And if he's not shadowing George Pickens,

781
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:37,719
Speaker 3: George Pickens is going to get plenty of Brandon Stevens.

782
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,160
Speaker 3: And Worm has seen Stevens playing.

783
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:42,719
Speaker 2: He knows how well seen Stevens at this point.

784
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:46,120
Speaker 3: So they're going I think that's gonna have a good game.

785
00:35:46,160 --> 00:35:47,600
Speaker 1: I think I think Cooper Rush could have a good

786
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:53,840
Speaker 1: passing day against Brandon Stevens. I actually actually like Stevens

787
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:56,080
Speaker 1: a lot, as like a person, like I always really

788
00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:59,160
Speaker 1: respected him, and so I don't want to like be

789
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:01,880
Speaker 1: too mean to him. But yeah, he's not been very

790
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 1: good the last couple of years. I already mentioned this,

801
00:36:36,880 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 1: Next game here, guys, Broncos at Eagles. By the way,

802
00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:43,719
Speaker 1: the early slate is so bad this week. This is

803
00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:46,879
Speaker 1: the only game that has two teams that have more

804
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:50,040
Speaker 1: than a single win this season in that early afternoon

805
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:52,719
Speaker 1: slate on Sunday is it is a lot of like

806
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,560
Speaker 1: zero and three verse one and three one two and one,

807
00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:58,760
Speaker 1: verse one and three. It's really ugly. So hopefully Broncos

808
00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:01,680
Speaker 1: that Eagles can save us a bit here fits I'll

809
00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:04,640
Speaker 1: start with you. Was last week the RJ Harvey coming

810
00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:08,120
Speaker 1: out party? Or will he fall back to Earth against Philadelphia?

811
00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:09,840
Speaker 1: And yes, I am being mean to Debro by not

812
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:11,800
Speaker 1: letting him go first on his boy chery.

813
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,560
Speaker 3: I love the fact that you're making me wait.

814
00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:17,480
Speaker 2: I love this. I think Jack too right. I think

815
00:37:17,480 --> 00:37:18,000
Speaker 2: I think I.

816
00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:20,920
Speaker 3: Maybe I love it.

817
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:23,960
Speaker 4: Debro's gonna be like a rodeo bowl in the shoe,

818
00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:28,239
Speaker 4: just waiting to get out and raise hell. I'm cautiously optimistic.

819
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:32,160
Speaker 4: So Harvey played a season high thirty three snaps. Snapshare

820
00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:34,359
Speaker 4: was up to forty point seven percent, And I think

821
00:37:34,360 --> 00:37:36,520
Speaker 4: that's closer to the usage we were hoping for with

822
00:37:36,680 --> 00:37:38,480
Speaker 4: R J. Harvey. We knew he wasn't gonna be a

823
00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:41,719
Speaker 4: workhorse like Sean Payton always uses more than one running back,

824
00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:45,920
Speaker 4: But as much as the Sean Payton offense runs through

825
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:48,000
Speaker 4: his running backs and as much as they get used

826
00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:50,719
Speaker 4: in the passing game under Sean Payton like, there are

827
00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:54,120
Speaker 4: typically two fantasy relevant backs in a Sean Payton offense.

828
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:57,600
Speaker 4: I think Harvey has reached the point of fantasy relevance now,

829
00:37:57,640 --> 00:38:00,600
Speaker 4: and the passing game usage was really encouraging, like four

830
00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:03,200
Speaker 4: catches for fifty yards in a touchdown on five targets.

831
00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 4: So yeah, I think we can start Harvey now, Debra.

832
00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:12,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's the breakout game was real for

833
00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:16,560
Speaker 3: everybody out there. RB twelve on the week last week.

834
00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:20,520
Speaker 3: I'm confidently starting him this week. And I just want

835
00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:24,440
Speaker 3: to throw out a bunch of stats here. Philadelphia has

836
00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 3: quietly been not great against As good as their defense is,

837
00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:29,160
Speaker 3: they're not great against defending the run. They've given up

838
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:30,800
Speaker 3: the twelfth most rushing arts per game, they have the

839
00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:34,080
Speaker 3: lowest stuff rate, and if you want to get more

840
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:37,400
Speaker 3: granular about this, Denver has more been more of a

841
00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:41,400
Speaker 3: gap scheme run game so far this year. Philly against

842
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:45,839
Speaker 3: gap runs eleventh highest yards per carry, third highest success rate.

843
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:47,200
Speaker 3: And if Harvey's not going to get it done on

844
00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:49,800
Speaker 3: the ground, I think he will. I have JK. Dobbinson

845
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:52,560
Speaker 3: Harvey both as top twenty four backs. I think Denver's

846
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:55,680
Speaker 3: offense should go through their ground game this week and

847
00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:59,480
Speaker 3: avoid the past defense. And I think I mean Sean Payton.

848
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:01,719
Speaker 3: We know that he's a smart play designer. I think

849
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:04,319
Speaker 3: that's what's going to happen. Harvey can also get it

850
00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:07,799
Speaker 3: done through the air, and you know kind of fits

851
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:10,720
Speaker 3: you laid out. I mean, look, this backfield was Dobbins

852
00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:13,320
Speaker 3: and Harvey last week. Harvey had a twenty five percent

853
00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:16,799
Speaker 3: route share, twelve percent target chair Philly through the air

854
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:19,160
Speaker 3: versus running backs, they've given up the tenth most receiving

855
00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 3: yards and the fourth highest yards per reception. So I

856
00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,239
Speaker 3: think Harvey can lead the way as far as, like

857
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:28,640
Speaker 3: you know, checkdowns and screens and stuff to make life

858
00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:30,560
Speaker 3: a little bit easier for bo Nicks this week. So

859
00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:32,759
Speaker 3: Harvey confidently starting him.

860
00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:35,359
Speaker 1: I want to ask a second question on this game.

861
00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:37,840
Speaker 1: I want to ask about Saquon Barkley quickly. Just like

862
00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:41,080
Speaker 1: he hasn't been a disastrous fantasy pick thanks to the touchdowns,

863
00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 1: but he has been really inefficient with his touches, and

864
00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:46,439
Speaker 1: he has not had a twenty point fantasy game yet

865
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:50,960
Speaker 1: in half PPR scoring despite actually catching passes and scoring touchdowns,

866
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:53,600
Speaker 1: which are two very valuable things. So I'm just curious

867
00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:56,280
Speaker 1: in general, like what your concern level is and specifically

868
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:58,040
Speaker 1: this week against the good Broncos defense.

869
00:39:58,080 --> 00:39:59,200
Speaker 2: In general fits.

870
00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:04,399
Speaker 4: Low to moderate. The offensive line hasn't been as good

871
00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:07,320
Speaker 4: for the Eagles. There have been some injury issues up front.

872
00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:10,880
Speaker 4: I don't know if it's possible for Saquon to be

873
00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:14,360
Speaker 4: as good or as efficient a runner as he was

874
00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:17,719
Speaker 4: in twenty twenty four. But on the bright side, they

875
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,080
Speaker 4: are using Saquon in the passing game more than they

876
00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:23,959
Speaker 4: did last year. He already has fourteen catches, which puts

877
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,360
Speaker 4: him on pace for about sixty catches, which would be

878
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:28,760
Speaker 4: the second highest reception total of his career.

879
00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:33,960
Speaker 3: Debra, my concern levels not high for Saquon because we

880
00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:35,879
Speaker 3: know the volume is going to be there. But kind

881
00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:40,280
Speaker 3: of like how Fitzi eluded here, I mean, their offensive

882
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:43,560
Speaker 3: line covered up a lot of sins for Saquon last year,

883
00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:45,839
Speaker 3: Like he was awesome for fantasy and stuff like that,

884
00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:48,360
Speaker 3: but he was not amazing as a tackle breaker, Like

885
00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:51,520
Speaker 3: he wasn't generating all of this stuff on his by

886
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:55,200
Speaker 3: his self. He had three point five yards before contact

887
00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 3: per a tenth last year. That is an astronomical number.

888
00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:00,680
Speaker 3: Now that's fallen back to earth, it's the only one

889
00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:03,439
Speaker 3: point two to three this year, which is really hurt

890
00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:06,040
Speaker 3: Saquon in the sense that he's not breaking tackles guys.

891
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:11,520
Speaker 3: Amongst forty three qualifying backs, Saquon Barkley ninth lowest explosive

892
00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:15,080
Speaker 3: run rate, third lowest miss tackles force per attempt. Only

893
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:18,240
Speaker 3: Chewba Hubbard and Kareem Hunt are worse than Saquon Barkley

894
00:41:18,600 --> 00:41:21,680
Speaker 3: and the tenth lowest yards after contact per attempt. So,

895
00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:25,880
Speaker 3: based off of his role in this offense, I'm not

896
00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:28,840
Speaker 3: worried about him in the touchdown equity that he brings,

897
00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:32,040
Speaker 3: but saying that I think there's gonna be a bounce back,

898
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:34,239
Speaker 3: that better days are coming, like all that kind of

899
00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:36,400
Speaker 3: stuff for Saquon, No, I don't see that.

900
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:41,240
Speaker 1: Let's get to this Sunday, late afternoon slate, late afternoon

901
00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:44,480
Speaker 1: Eastern time, Titans at Cardinals. This one I'll keep really

902
00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:47,120
Speaker 1: simple here, Debro. Are you starting a Mario de Mercado

903
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:49,239
Speaker 1: Michael Carter? Neither or both?

904
00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:49,720
Speaker 2: This week?

905
00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:53,000
Speaker 3: I think both are flexworthy and I know that this

906
00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:56,799
Speaker 3: has been the talking point of all of Twitter this week.

907
00:41:56,840 --> 00:41:59,239
Speaker 3: It's been like, oh, what side do you take it?

908
00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:01,400
Speaker 3: You take it Michael Carter and Mari de mccatt who

909
00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:03,959
Speaker 3: you can't like both? You gotta pick a side? Which

910
00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:06,719
Speaker 3: one you picking? Up off of waivers, and I ended

911
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:08,680
Speaker 3: up with Michael Carter in a lot of places because

912
00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:11,000
Speaker 3: everybody went to the De Marcado side. So Michael Carter

913
00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:13,799
Speaker 3: you could get for basically three off of waivers. And

914
00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:15,920
Speaker 3: I think the way that this backflild is gonna work

915
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:18,960
Speaker 3: out this week is I think Michael Carter is going

916
00:42:19,000 --> 00:42:22,360
Speaker 3: to be if you look at the early season usage

917
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:24,880
Speaker 3: of James Connor and Trey Benson, James Connor was your

918
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:26,440
Speaker 3: early down guy. He got a little bit of the

919
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:28,879
Speaker 3: passing down work. Trey Benson worked in the passing down

920
00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:32,640
Speaker 3: and sprinkled in on early downs. I think Michael Carter

921
00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:35,120
Speaker 3: is your James Connor and I think Trey bent A

922
00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:37,680
Speaker 3: Mario Demarcato is your Trey Benson. I think both guys

923
00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:40,800
Speaker 3: are gonna have relevance this week. I wouldn't be surprised

924
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:42,360
Speaker 3: if both of these guys scored. If I got to

925
00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:44,359
Speaker 3: pick one, I pick Michael Carter because I think he's

926
00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:47,200
Speaker 3: gonna own the early down role and what we saw

927
00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:50,120
Speaker 3: from him last year week seventeen through eighteen, he had

928
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:53,800
Speaker 3: eighteen touches per game, seventy total yards. He wasn't truly efficient,

929
00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:57,440
Speaker 3: but RB eleven and RB twenty in those weeks. So

930
00:42:57,520 --> 00:43:00,440
Speaker 3: really like, look, if you need a flex either one

931
00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:02,759
Speaker 3: of them, I can make you case for both of them.

932
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:04,360
Speaker 3: If I got to pick one, it's Michael Carter.

933
00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:07,480
Speaker 2: Fits de Mercado, Carter, neither or both.

934
00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:10,600
Speaker 4: I agree with de bro I think they're both flexworthy.

935
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:13,160
Speaker 4: I've got Carter ranked RB twenty eight and de Mercado

936
00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:17,520
Speaker 4: RB twenty nine. And I know it seems counterintuitive to

937
00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:22,480
Speaker 4: think that, you know, when De Mercado was active last

938
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:24,960
Speaker 4: week the number two running back and Michael Carter was

939
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,920
Speaker 4: not active, to think that Michael Carter would be more

940
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:30,520
Speaker 4: valuable than the guy who was already ahead of him

941
00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:32,800
Speaker 4: on the depth chart. But I do think there's a

942
00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:35,520
Speaker 4: good chance the Cardinals just leave De Mercato in the

943
00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:38,520
Speaker 4: passing down roll and move Carter into the early down roll.

944
00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:42,200
Speaker 4: And Carter kind of tipped his hand, tipped the team's hand.

945
00:43:42,719 --> 00:43:44,879
Speaker 4: He was doing a locker room interview and they were

946
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,240
Speaker 4: asking him about, you know, going from the practice squad

947
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:50,359
Speaker 4: to being probably a prominent part of the offense this week,

948
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:52,480
Speaker 4: and he said, yeah, it's it's a lot. You go

949
00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:55,840
Speaker 4: from the practice squad one week to starting the next.

950
00:43:56,320 --> 00:44:00,279
Speaker 4: Like he said he was starting basically, so I kind

951
00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:01,600
Speaker 4: of think that's how they're going to play it. But

952
00:44:01,640 --> 00:44:05,000
Speaker 4: I do think they both profile as like playable options

953
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:08,719
Speaker 4: against a Titans run defense, that this has just been

954
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:12,200
Speaker 4: a great matchup, like fourth most fantasy points to running backs,

955
00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:15,880
Speaker 4: third most rushing yards, a league high six touchdown runs

956
00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:16,840
Speaker 4: against the Titans.

957
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:20,600
Speaker 1: Similar question on our next game, Buccaneers at Seahawks. Another

958
00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:24,160
Speaker 1: backfield with you know the main characters, Hurt, Bucky Irving

959
00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:26,840
Speaker 1: not playing for the Buccaneers. So how are you approaching

960
00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:29,319
Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay backfield? Fits will start with you this

961
00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:31,240
Speaker 1: time with Irving, you know, Hurt.

962
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:34,200
Speaker 4: Well, the matchup is less appealing than it is for

963
00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:38,080
Speaker 4: the Cardinals running backs. I mean, the Seahawks have a

964
00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:40,600
Speaker 4: lot of the seventh fewest rushing yards to running backs

965
00:44:40,680 --> 00:44:42,799
Speaker 4: and giving up just three point three yards per carry

966
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:45,800
Speaker 4: to running backs. They're third in DVA against the run.

967
00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:49,640
Speaker 4: White obviously as the appeal as a pass catcher, but

968
00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:52,359
Speaker 4: less so as a runner like career average of three

969
00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:54,400
Speaker 4: point nine yards per carry. I think that kind of

970
00:44:55,640 --> 00:44:57,440
Speaker 4: yards per carry not a great stat but I think

971
00:44:57,440 --> 00:45:00,640
Speaker 4: it's a pretty good reflection on Rashad White in this case,

972
00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:03,480
Speaker 4: and then I've got Sean Tucker running back thirty eight,

973
00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:06,560
Speaker 4: just kind of cautious. Maybe he is a much bigger

974
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:09,279
Speaker 4: role than we expect, which would be fun to see

975
00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:11,200
Speaker 4: because I think a lot of people have been ready

976
00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:15,239
Speaker 4: for Sean Tucker to break out and do something more

977
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:20,120
Speaker 4: like I mean, Bucky's great, Like whoever's behind Bucky went healthy?

978
00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:23,359
Speaker 4: Like no one's leap frogging Bucky on the depth chart.

979
00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:25,480
Speaker 4: But I think people want to see Sean Tucker and

980
00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:27,000
Speaker 4: maybe they get the chance this week.

981
00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:29,280
Speaker 2: Dee Bro, what do you think about this backfield this week?

982
00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:32,319
Speaker 3: I think it's gonna be mostly Rashad White. I think

983
00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:35,279
Speaker 3: Tucker's gonna I think he's going to factor him for

984
00:45:35,360 --> 00:45:39,000
Speaker 3: like thirty thirty five percent maybe of the snaps and

985
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:40,520
Speaker 3: stuff like that that might be a little bit high.

986
00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:42,719
Speaker 3: I think Rashad White I am going to have as

987
00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:44,800
Speaker 3: a top twenty four back just based off a volume.

988
00:45:44,800 --> 00:45:46,520
Speaker 3: I think he's going to get the high leverage touches.

989
00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:48,440
Speaker 3: And the other part about it is if one of

990
00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:50,640
Speaker 3: these guys is playing in the passing game, I think

991
00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:52,840
Speaker 3: that's where Rashad White can have a good day. Seattle's

992
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:55,360
Speaker 3: given up the most receiving ards to backs, so I

993
00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:58,920
Speaker 3: think he can get especially with the Buccaneers how banged

994
00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:01,359
Speaker 3: up were they in the past, Like I mean, Mike

995
00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:03,160
Speaker 3: Evans is not going to play there, like outside of

996
00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:05,880
Speaker 3: a Mecca Buka Who's who is Baker mayfil throwing the

997
00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:08,719
Speaker 3: ball to So I think Rashaan Why can get their

998
00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:10,919
Speaker 3: own volume even though the matchup, like fifty pointed out,

999
00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:11,480
Speaker 3: is pretty bad.

1012
00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:48,960
Speaker 1: Lions at Bengals in Jake Browning's defense debro at Minnesota

1013
00:46:48,960 --> 00:46:50,840
Speaker 1: and at Denver are two of the toughest matchups you

1014
00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:54,440
Speaker 1: could have, especially as a backup quarterback. Home against Detroit

1015
00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:58,200
Speaker 1: isn't exactly easy, but it might feel easy by comparison

1016
00:46:58,520 --> 00:47:01,040
Speaker 1: relative to the last two weeks. So are we willing

1017
00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:03,760
Speaker 1: to give Bengals players another chance this week?

1018
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:07,040
Speaker 3: I think we are. I mean Jake Browning, I think

1019
00:47:07,080 --> 00:47:10,480
Speaker 3: you're not playing him outside of super flex formats. But

1020
00:47:11,040 --> 00:47:13,280
Speaker 3: t Higgins, I think goes back into like wide receiver

1021
00:47:13,360 --> 00:47:16,879
Speaker 3: three territory. The Lions secondary is banged up. They've given

1022
00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:19,120
Speaker 3: up the tenth most PBR points per target to perimeter

1023
00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:22,320
Speaker 3: wide receivers, so he gets flex relevance back the player

1024
00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:24,279
Speaker 3: that I'm not going to go back to, and I'm

1025
00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:28,120
Speaker 3: willing to start, like, you know, pick your injury running

1026
00:47:28,160 --> 00:47:31,920
Speaker 3: back DuJour this week, Mario de Mercado, Michael Carter, Rico

1027
00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:35,520
Speaker 3: Daudell because Juba Hubbard's not going to play. I'm probably

1028
00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:39,360
Speaker 3: starting a lot of those guys over Chase brown this week.

1029
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:41,040
Speaker 3: Like he gets all the volume, he's not going to

1030
00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:45,920
Speaker 3: go anywhere. Detroit's rush defense has been really good, so

1031
00:47:46,120 --> 00:47:47,880
Speaker 3: I think like you can go back to T Higgins.

1032
00:47:47,880 --> 00:47:50,440
Speaker 3: Obviously you're playing Jamar Chase. If you got Jamar Chase,

1033
00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:53,400
Speaker 3: Jake Browning in super flex formats Chase Brown. It's just

1034
00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:56,400
Speaker 3: this offensive line's not going to do him any favors,

1035
00:47:56,680 --> 00:47:59,200
Speaker 3: and Detroit's run defense has been really good. I'm probably

1036
00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:00,760
Speaker 3: going to go with one of the guys the flavors

1037
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:04,000
Speaker 3: of the week over Chase Brown. Fitsy, tell me I'm wrong.

1038
00:48:05,560 --> 00:48:09,359
Speaker 4: I've got like I've got Chase Brown ORB twenty three.

1039
00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:15,280
Speaker 4: He's at least getting volume, man, he's averaging seventeen with it, dude,

1040
00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:21,839
Speaker 4: I know, but like he's catching passes, he's I'm I'm

1041
00:48:21,880 --> 00:48:24,720
Speaker 4: following the volume, man. And even there it's like running

1042
00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:28,279
Speaker 4: back twenty four twenty three, excuse me, low end RB

1043
00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:31,799
Speaker 4: two in a in a week where four teams are

1044
00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:35,279
Speaker 4: on by So I don't think I'm going completely overboard there.

1045
00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:38,000
Speaker 4: I'm with you on not benching Jamar Chase. And some

1046
00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:42,280
Speaker 4: people think that's insane. Some people really want to bench

1047
00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:46,960
Speaker 4: him and think that sticking with him is like the

1048
00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:49,680
Speaker 4: band playing in the deck of that Titanic as it's

1049
00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:52,880
Speaker 4: going down. So, I know it's been bleak for Chase

1050
00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:53,959
Speaker 4: the last couple of weeks.

1051
00:48:54,200 --> 00:48:59,080
Speaker 3: Answered pain last week, right, and yeah, like like they

1052
00:48:59,120 --> 00:49:01,080
Speaker 3: should have known that down game was coming.

1053
00:49:02,120 --> 00:49:04,360
Speaker 1: I think both sides have a good point on Chase

1054
00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:06,759
Speaker 1: in general. Like in general, I do think having a

1055
00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:10,480
Speaker 1: stud player whose circumstances have changed but is still healthy

1056
00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:13,120
Speaker 1: is sometimes the worst thing you can have in fantasy,

1057
00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:16,560
Speaker 1: because you feel like you cannot justify sitting a player

1058
00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:19,520
Speaker 1: like Jamar Chacey's number one overall pick probably in your league.

1059
00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:23,120
Speaker 1: Yet he if he continues to throw goosegg after goosegg, like,

1060
00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:24,680
Speaker 1: they will just drag you down more so than like

1061
00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:26,120
Speaker 1: if he was injured. Not that you want a guy

1062
00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:28,480
Speaker 1: to get hurt, but if he was injured, Okay, that's easy.

1063
00:49:28,520 --> 00:49:30,040
Speaker 1: Put him on ir pick up somebody else, and you're

1064
00:49:30,040 --> 00:49:33,400
Speaker 1: getting points elsewhere. Having said that, I do think, like

1065
00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:35,759
Speaker 1: like Jake Brown historically is better at home, which is

1066
00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:38,120
Speaker 1: where he is here, Detroit's defense is not the same

1067
00:49:38,120 --> 00:49:42,319
Speaker 1: as Minnesota and Denver. Like I would try again, there

1068
00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:45,080
Speaker 1: will come a point where it gets to be like, man,

1069
00:49:45,120 --> 00:49:47,160
Speaker 1: like you are just kind of on the Titanic, right fits.

1070
00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:49,719
Speaker 1: I think that's an apt metaphor at a certain point.

1071
00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:51,320
Speaker 1: I don't think we're there yet, just because there was

1072
00:49:51,360 --> 00:49:53,040
Speaker 1: two really tough matchups.

1073
00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:54,719
Speaker 3: Well, can we also I mean, I know we're all

1074
00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:57,680
Speaker 3: prisoner of the moment here. We also all still remember

1075
00:49:57,760 --> 00:50:00,360
Speaker 3: him versus Jacksonville too, and Chase went all the Browning

1076
00:50:00,440 --> 00:50:02,640
Speaker 3: under center and the and the matchup wasn't nearly as bad,

1077
00:50:02,719 --> 00:50:04,960
Speaker 3: Like we were all old enough to remember that too.

1078
00:50:05,000 --> 00:50:06,759
Speaker 3: For everybody that wants to grab the shovel and just

1079
00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:08,879
Speaker 3: bury Jamar Chick out, that was a game at home

1080
00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:10,200
Speaker 3: where Brownie is better.

1081
00:50:10,440 --> 00:50:12,719
Speaker 4: And he still has ten catches over the last two weeks.

1082
00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:14,200
Speaker 4: They're at least trying to get him the ball.

1083
00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:17,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Well, and you know Jamar Chase like, if

1084
00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:18,600
Speaker 3: he's not going to get the ball, he's gonna get

1085
00:50:18,600 --> 00:50:20,680
Speaker 3: out there. Not the cryptic tweets of AJ Brown, but

1086
00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:21,360
Speaker 3: he's gonna.

1087
00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:21,600
Speaker 2: Chirp about it.

1088
00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:25,040
Speaker 4: Where do we have you can go ahead? I was

1089
00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:27,080
Speaker 4: just gonna ask, where do we have t Higgins ranked?

1090
00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:28,560
Speaker 4: I'm wide receiver thirty three.

1091
00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:31,399
Speaker 3: I think I'm right around you. I've got him wide

1092
00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:34,359
Speaker 3: receiver thirty one FITSI. So we're we're holding hands here.

1093
00:50:34,640 --> 00:50:36,120
Speaker 3: Where do you have Chase ranked this week?

1094
00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:36,960
Speaker 4: Nine?

1095
00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:42,480
Speaker 3: Same exact, same yeah, I and I think I need

1096
00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:43,440
Speaker 3: to move him up to be honest.

1097
00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:45,160
Speaker 1: Chase is also the type of player that like, you

1098
00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:46,960
Speaker 1: don't need a great quarterback, Like if he just gets

1099
00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:48,880
Speaker 1: him the ball and there's any amount of space, like

1100
00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:49,439
Speaker 1: he could take.

1101
00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:52,680
Speaker 2: It to the house. So yep, so sure. Yeah. I

1102
00:50:53,200 --> 00:50:54,719
Speaker 2: have a funny story on Higgins. By the way.

1103
00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:57,279
Speaker 1: So a good friend of mine who does not really

1104
00:50:57,320 --> 00:50:59,319
Speaker 1: paid that close sestion to fantasy, but like he's in

1105
00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:02,000
Speaker 1: like a you know league with his his family and everything.

1106
00:51:02,040 --> 00:51:03,480
Speaker 1: He like you know, asked me for some help with

1107
00:51:03,520 --> 00:51:06,240
Speaker 1: the draft and for making some of his picks and everything.

1108
00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:08,759
Speaker 1: He called me last night and he was like, hey,

1109
00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:10,440
Speaker 1: I need to pick up a tight end because crafts

1110
00:51:10,480 --> 00:51:12,839
Speaker 1: on by who should I drop? And he has really

1111
00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:15,319
Speaker 1: strong receivers And he was listening just the guys on

1112
00:51:15,360 --> 00:51:17,320
Speaker 1: his bench, and one of the last guys you mentioned

1113
00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:19,960
Speaker 1: was Higgins. He was only reading last names, and because

1114
00:51:19,960 --> 00:51:22,240
Speaker 1: I was thinking bench and he was, I just assumed

1115
00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:24,400
Speaker 1: he men Jadie Higgins. And I was like, well, your

1116
00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:26,520
Speaker 1: other guys are pretty good, so like, yeah, I would

1117
00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:30,120
Speaker 1: drop Higgins. And then he like, not even four seconds later,

1118
00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:31,560
Speaker 1: I go, well, wait, wait, wait, wait wait did you

1119
00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:33,600
Speaker 1: was it t Higgins or Jaden Higgins?

1120
00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:35,120
Speaker 2: And he goes, well, I already dropped him.

1121
00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:36,160
Speaker 3: I was what you did.

1122
00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:37,440
Speaker 2: It right away?

1123
00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:36,960
Speaker 5: Yeah?

1124
00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:40,080
Speaker 2: It was dropped t Higgins to pick up a Harold

1125
00:51:40,160 --> 00:51:43,640
Speaker 2: fan and junior. So I was like, I was like,

1126
00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:45,799
Speaker 2: you can try messaging the commissioner, see if you can

1127
00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:47,160
Speaker 2: get him on do it. I don't know if you

1128
00:51:47,200 --> 00:51:47,640
Speaker 2: will or not.

1129
00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:50,239
Speaker 1: It's kind of your own stupidity. So shouts to my

1130
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:52,640
Speaker 1: friend David for making that hilarious mistake.

1131
00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:55,640
Speaker 3: Shout out to David, and shout out to using first

1132
00:51:55,719 --> 00:51:56,160
Speaker 3: names too.

1133
00:51:56,160 --> 00:51:59,719
Speaker 1: When you talk about he needed he didn't realize that

1134
00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:03,880
Speaker 1: there was multiple Higgins receivers, I guess. So all right,

1135
00:52:03,960 --> 00:52:05,840
Speaker 1: let's got to Commanders at Chargers last game in the

1136
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:09,319
Speaker 1: late afternoon Slate deep, bro, how much are you downgrading

1137
00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:13,359
Speaker 1: Chargers players? With Joe Alt now joining Rashaan Slater on

1138
00:52:13,360 --> 00:52:15,840
Speaker 1: the shelf at least for the time being, two of

1139
00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:18,200
Speaker 1: the best tackles in football are now out not a

1140
00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:20,440
Speaker 1: very good offensive line. What are you doing with the

1141
00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:22,000
Speaker 1: Chargers in general as a result of this?

1142
00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:26,600
Speaker 3: Not much this week? Now? Again, I think this is

1143
00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:29,440
Speaker 3: gonna be week to week matchup sensitive based off of

1144
00:52:29,560 --> 00:52:32,960
Speaker 3: the matchup, but the Commanders had the ninth lowest pressure rate,

1145
00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:37,040
Speaker 3: so I'm not that worried and looking at their run

1146
00:52:37,080 --> 00:52:39,759
Speaker 3: defense like they've allowed the ninth highest missed tackle rate

1147
00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:43,560
Speaker 3: their fourteenth and explosive run rates. So I think even

1148
00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:46,439
Speaker 3: behind like a downgraded offensive line, the Chargers can still

1149
00:52:46,440 --> 00:52:48,759
Speaker 3: have a lot of success this week fits.

1150
00:52:49,680 --> 00:52:52,520
Speaker 4: I think I'm a smidge below consensus on all the

1151
00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:56,319
Speaker 4: Chargers this week except for Ladd McConkie, who I'm stubbornly

1152
00:52:56,440 --> 00:52:57,279
Speaker 4: keeping faith with.

1153
00:52:57,800 --> 00:52:59,600
Speaker 3: I think this is Lad week. Fancy to your point,

1154
00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:01,040
Speaker 3: I think it's h they don't.

1155
00:53:01,080 --> 00:53:03,840
Speaker 4: The Commanders get beaten up pretty good by slot receivers.

1156
00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:05,840
Speaker 3: A lot, a lot of problems depending the slot.

1157
00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:08,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, Mike, have they been playing Mike san Rostol back

1158
00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:10,600
Speaker 4: in the slot now? Isn't he hurt they have?

1159
00:53:10,960 --> 00:53:14,200
Speaker 3: Yeah? I think it's Lad Week. I think the coverage matchup.

1160
00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:16,919
Speaker 3: And plus, dude, if anybody watched that game last week,

1161
00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:19,160
Speaker 3: Ladd is pressing so much, like you could tell what's

1162
00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:21,439
Speaker 3: in his head, like he wants to like a lot

1163
00:53:21,440 --> 00:53:23,520
Speaker 3: of drops and stuff like that. He didn't look the same,

1164
00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:25,759
Speaker 3: Like this is a get right, Like you got to

1165
00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:27,799
Speaker 3: infuse this guy with some good vibes because if not,

1166
00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:29,279
Speaker 3: like you're gonna need him the rest of the season.

1167
00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:32,880
Speaker 4: But anyway, I don't think the Chargers offense completely breaks.

1168
00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:36,200
Speaker 4: But yeah, not having her two cornerstone offensive tackles Joe

1169
00:53:36,200 --> 00:53:39,520
Speaker 4: Alt and Rashaun Slater who's out for the season, right,

1170
00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:42,800
Speaker 4: not a good thing. The Chargers wanted ever Shawn Slater

1171
00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:44,879
Speaker 4: and Joe Alt as their offensive tackles, and in Week

1172
00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:48,120
Speaker 4: five it's gonna be Trey Pipkins and Austin Deculus. Jeez,

1173
00:53:48,120 --> 00:53:52,480
Speaker 4: I might have to a little more like It's yeah,

1174
00:53:53,239 --> 00:53:56,080
Speaker 4: I don't even I watch a lot of SEC football.

1175
00:53:56,080 --> 00:53:59,480
Speaker 4: I don't remember Deculous at all from LSU. He was like,

1176
00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:03,120
Speaker 4: I've heard that name sixth round pick in twenty twenty two.

1177
00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:08,080
Speaker 4: I want to say, so, yeah, that's maybe I have

1178
00:54:08,120 --> 00:54:10,960
Speaker 4: to drop the Chargers a bit more in the rankings.

1179
00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:12,680
Speaker 1: Deebra I want to quickly ask you a question that

1180
00:54:12,719 --> 00:54:15,320
Speaker 1: we talked about on the Thursday show to you know,

1181
00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:17,600
Speaker 1: reference another person in my life who asked me a question.

1182
00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:19,480
Speaker 1: My brother in law was asking me about this Dynasty

1183
00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:22,279
Speaker 1: trade and Fitz felt like it was kind of a

1184
00:54:22,280 --> 00:54:24,160
Speaker 1: fair value, but he didn't think he would actually pulled

1185
00:54:24,160 --> 00:54:25,840
Speaker 1: the trigger on it. I'm curious what you think, Debro,

1186
00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:27,400
Speaker 1: because it's a lot of players that you really like.

1187
00:54:27,960 --> 00:54:31,680
Speaker 1: It's giving away Pooka Nakua and this is like a

1188
00:54:31,719 --> 00:54:35,560
Speaker 1: twelve team start three ride receivers, super flex Dynasty League,

1189
00:54:35,560 --> 00:54:40,440
Speaker 1: giving away pooquin Aakua, getting Quentin Johnston and Drake London.

1190
00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:42,240
Speaker 3: Oh good lord.

1191
00:54:42,640 --> 00:54:44,479
Speaker 1: So the question is how much do you really believe

1192
00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:46,160
Speaker 1: in this break up being real? For Quentin Johnson? Is

1193
00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:48,800
Speaker 1: it enough to bridge the gap between two very good receivers.

1194
00:54:48,800 --> 00:54:50,440
Speaker 1: But obviously Pouoka would be higher than London.

1195
00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:56,400
Speaker 3: Okay, pretty fair, isn't it. I think it's really fair.

1196
00:54:56,800 --> 00:54:59,879
Speaker 3: I think that name value hasn't caught up to actual

1197
00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:02,720
Speaker 3: production with Quinton Johnston. I think you can get added

1198
00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:06,800
Speaker 3: more to the QJ side, like a twenty seven or

1199
00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:09,600
Speaker 3: twenty eight second or something like that. But like, I

1200
00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:12,000
Speaker 3: think it's fair. I think it's definitely fair because I

1201
00:55:12,080 --> 00:55:14,560
Speaker 3: think I, dude, Fitzy didn't us in in some week

1202
00:55:14,600 --> 00:55:16,200
Speaker 3: one on the Waiver Our show, I said, the QJ

1203
00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:19,480
Speaker 3: breakout is real. The numbers say it is real, and

1204
00:55:19,560 --> 00:55:21,880
Speaker 3: it has been real. The guy is a wide receiver

1205
00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:26,200
Speaker 3: one like his breakout is definitively real. So I think

1206
00:55:26,239 --> 00:55:27,960
Speaker 3: it's a fair return. Like if you want to do

1207
00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:30,560
Speaker 3: that now, you're giving away the wide receiver one in

1208
00:55:30,600 --> 00:55:32,600
Speaker 3: all of fantasy this year. He's probably gonna go on,

1209
00:55:32,719 --> 00:55:35,840
Speaker 3: I have a Cooper Cup type of record breaking season,

1210
00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:38,800
Speaker 3: and he's gonna be a difference maker and league winner.

1211
00:55:38,840 --> 00:55:41,160
Speaker 3: And we get down to the end of the season

1212
00:55:41,239 --> 00:55:43,719
Speaker 3: and we get the percentage of teams that went to

1213
00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:46,800
Speaker 3: championships and playoffs, and Puka stays healthy, he's gonna be

1214
00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:48,440
Speaker 3: at the top of that board. He's going to be

1215
00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:51,400
Speaker 3: so knowing that you're giving that type of player away,

1216
00:55:51,680 --> 00:55:53,759
Speaker 3: go ahead. What I told him, it's fair.

1217
00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:56,040
Speaker 1: What I told my brother in law was I wouldn't

1218
00:55:56,040 --> 00:55:58,440
Speaker 1: make it if you guaranteed me health. But there is

1219
00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:01,239
Speaker 1: a history of Puka getting banged up and Stafford's back,

1220
00:56:01,360 --> 00:56:03,520
Speaker 1: so that's why I would can say. I was like,

1221
00:56:03,560 --> 00:56:05,400
Speaker 1: I don't know if I could actually bring myself to

1222
00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:07,799
Speaker 1: get rid of Puka right now, but if I were to,

1223
00:56:07,960 --> 00:56:10,080
Speaker 1: that would be the justification because it's a fair deal

1224
00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:12,720
Speaker 1: and you're getting out from not just him, but also

1225
00:56:12,719 --> 00:56:13,480
Speaker 1: Stafford's health.

1226
00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:14,359
Speaker 2: So that was.

1227
00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:19,080
Speaker 3: Well, say as before we move on, is QJ their

1228
00:56:19,160 --> 00:56:23,280
Speaker 3: unquestioned wide receiver one moving forward? I think he is FITZI.

1229
00:56:25,360 --> 00:56:29,920
Speaker 2: I can't say on questions with Lad. We'll see what happens.

1230
00:56:30,040 --> 00:56:32,840
Speaker 4: I mean, he's just he's really good, But like so

1231
00:56:33,120 --> 00:56:36,400
Speaker 4: is Lad. I don't I haven't stopped believing in Lad.

1232
00:56:36,920 --> 00:56:38,399
Speaker 2: Okay two games.

1233
00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:41,040
Speaker 1: So let's we'll real quick on these Patriots at Bill's

1234
00:56:41,080 --> 00:56:42,759
Speaker 1: Sunday Night Football. I don't really have a good question

1235
00:56:42,800 --> 00:56:44,839
Speaker 1: for this game. I'm just super excited to watch this. Actually,

1236
00:56:44,880 --> 00:56:47,200
Speaker 1: I just think it's gonna be an awesome matchup. So

1237
00:56:47,400 --> 00:56:49,279
Speaker 1: just give me a final score prediction from you guys,

1238
00:56:49,440 --> 00:56:52,040
Speaker 1: and then also one player that you disagree with consensus

1239
00:56:52,080 --> 00:56:54,160
Speaker 1: on this week in this game. For what it's worth,

1240
00:56:54,160 --> 00:56:56,279
Speaker 1: hard Rock Bet has Bill's minus eight. This was as

1241
00:56:56,280 --> 00:56:57,560
Speaker 1: of when I put the sheet together. I'm not sure

1242
00:56:57,600 --> 00:56:59,239
Speaker 1: if this has moved at all. Hard Rock Bet has

1243
00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:03,240
Speaker 1: Bill's minus eight total set at forty nine. So again, Debro,

1244
00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:05,240
Speaker 1: give me final score prediction and a player you disagree

1245
00:57:05,239 --> 00:57:06,000
Speaker 1: with consensus on.

1246
00:57:07,760 --> 00:57:13,759
Speaker 3: Twenty eight to twenty four Bills And I think, my

1247
00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:18,000
Speaker 3: why is Travion Henderson ranked over Romandre Stevenson, Like what

1248
00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:21,400
Speaker 3: are people seeing that I'm not seeing? Because Travion Henderson

1249
00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:22,960
Speaker 3: for all of our hope and hype and all that

1250
00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:26,480
Speaker 3: kind of stuff, and Romandre keeps fumbling and he's not

1251
00:57:26,480 --> 00:57:29,720
Speaker 3: playing over Romandre for all we talked about last week,

1252
00:57:29,760 --> 00:57:33,400
Speaker 3: and he oh, Travion's going through him before positional drills

1253
00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:35,360
Speaker 3: and I was even bought into that and stuff, and

1254
00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:39,960
Speaker 3: Travion's not breaking tackles that Ramondre Stevenson is still not

1255
00:57:40,240 --> 00:57:42,840
Speaker 3: ranked above Travion Henderson and he's outside the top twenty

1256
00:57:42,880 --> 00:57:46,280
Speaker 3: four running backs, although he's playing a team that cannot

1257
00:57:46,280 --> 00:57:48,800
Speaker 3: stop the run, and we know he's gonna be a

1258
00:57:48,840 --> 00:57:51,480
Speaker 3: central figure of the rushing attack outside of Drake May.

1259
00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:54,240
Speaker 3: So I think the Bills win this game. I think

1260
00:57:54,240 --> 00:57:57,200
Speaker 3: it's honestly, maybe I'm I'm going a little bit too

1261
00:57:57,240 --> 00:57:58,600
Speaker 3: low on the score here. I think it's gonna be

1262
00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:01,400
Speaker 3: a shootout. And I think Ramandre should be ranked highly

1263
00:58:01,600 --> 00:58:03,360
Speaker 3: this week. As long as he doesn't fumble, he's gonna

1264
00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:04,000
Speaker 3: have a really good game.

1265
00:58:04,080 --> 00:58:07,160
Speaker 1: So Debra has Patriots covering and the over hit on

1266
00:58:07,280 --> 00:58:10,520
Speaker 1: the total and is disagreeing with Remandre fits what do

1267
00:58:10,520 --> 00:58:10,919
Speaker 1: you have.

1268
00:58:11,640 --> 00:58:14,560
Speaker 4: Thirty one to twenty seven Bills. I think the Patriots

1269
00:58:14,560 --> 00:58:17,400
Speaker 4: give the Bills a really good game. Drake May goes

1270
00:58:17,440 --> 00:58:20,760
Speaker 4: toe to toe with Josh Allen. Stefan Diggs plays well

1271
00:58:20,880 --> 00:58:23,280
Speaker 4: in his return to Buffalo revenge game and all that,

1272
00:58:23,400 --> 00:58:25,840
Speaker 4: but in the end, Josh Allen pulls it out for Buffalo.

1273
00:58:26,240 --> 00:58:28,760
Speaker 4: So I like the Patriots to cover and the game

1274
00:58:28,800 --> 00:58:31,240
Speaker 4: to go over the total. I've got Drake May QB

1275
00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:36,200
Speaker 4: three this week, so I'm definitely against and I think

1276
00:58:36,560 --> 00:58:38,440
Speaker 4: part of it is that Josh Allen is going to

1277
00:58:38,520 --> 00:58:42,000
Speaker 4: push Drake May into a shootout, and so Drake May

1278
00:58:42,040 --> 00:58:43,560
Speaker 4: is going to have to drop back quite a bit

1279
00:58:43,640 --> 00:58:45,800
Speaker 4: and throw a lot of passes and do some scrambling

1280
00:58:45,840 --> 00:58:48,800
Speaker 4: and he's gonna put up points. Debro, I am one

1281
00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:52,520
Speaker 4: of the fools who has Traveon Henderson ranked one spot

1282
00:58:52,600 --> 00:58:55,400
Speaker 4: ahead of Vermondre Stevenson. I do expect Formondre to get

1283
00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:59,160
Speaker 4: more touches, but I do think that Traveon Henderson is

1284
00:58:59,160 --> 00:59:01,600
Speaker 4: always going to do more on a per touch basis

1285
00:59:01,720 --> 00:59:07,320
Speaker 4: than Romandre Stevenson. I'm also factoring in the likelihood the

1286
00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:12,440
Speaker 4: Romandre Stevenson is one fumble away from fumble jail and

1287
00:59:12,600 --> 00:59:16,520
Speaker 4: not getting out. And also like Henderson has that big

1288
00:59:16,560 --> 00:59:20,680
Speaker 4: playability and he's going up against the ghost defense. That's wait,

1289
00:59:20,800 --> 00:59:23,320
Speaker 4: we don't think Travion Henderson is a good running back.

1290
00:59:23,360 --> 00:59:26,880
Speaker 3: Are you serious, hold up, I loved him as a prospect,

1291
00:59:26,960 --> 00:59:29,560
Speaker 3: But I know we have a small sample size here,

1292
00:59:29,960 --> 00:59:32,160
Speaker 3: But tell me these numbers don't concern you at least

1293
00:59:32,200 --> 00:59:32,480
Speaker 3: a little.

1294
00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:35,240
Speaker 4: No, four games don't don't like you don't even need

1295
00:59:35,280 --> 00:59:38,480
Speaker 4: a list of the numbers in four games with the

1296
00:59:38,560 --> 00:59:41,360
Speaker 4: number of touches he's had in four games. Nothing you

1297
00:59:41,400 --> 00:59:43,080
Speaker 4: can throw at me with numbers is going to like

1298
00:59:43,200 --> 00:59:46,400
Speaker 4: change the way I fundamentally feel about ramont uh Traveon

1299
00:59:46,480 --> 00:59:49,720
Speaker 4: Henderson and what he was as a prospect. Like, No,

1300
00:59:49,880 --> 00:59:55,280
Speaker 4: a four game sample of like timeshare slash backup work, no,

1301
00:59:55,600 --> 00:59:58,240
Speaker 4: like thirty nine.

1302
00:59:58,040 --> 01:00:01,160
Speaker 3: The fact that he's playing in twenty nine percent of

1303
01:00:01,200 --> 01:00:03,360
Speaker 3: the snaps, the fact that he's not playing in a

1304
01:00:03,400 --> 01:00:05,640
Speaker 3: bunch of the routes. He's got twenty seven percent routes here.

1305
01:00:06,920 --> 01:00:09,840
Speaker 3: But again, like, I can't rank him above Vermandre.

1306
01:00:10,080 --> 01:00:13,800
Speaker 4: One fumble from a guy who's had chronic fumbling problems

1307
01:00:13,880 --> 01:00:17,280
Speaker 4: away from a much bigger and against the really in

1308
01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:20,000
Speaker 4: a good matchup against a Bill's RUNDI that ranks like

1309
01:00:20,040 --> 01:00:22,280
Speaker 4: thirtieth and DVA and is giving up like five and

1310
01:00:22,280 --> 01:00:24,280
Speaker 4: a half carry yards for Ferry.

1311
01:00:24,080 --> 01:00:26,880
Speaker 3: Hasn't Travion like why didn't Trevion break out versus the Panthers,

1312
01:00:26,880 --> 01:00:29,840
Speaker 3: then it was a really good I mean, it wasn't

1313
01:00:29,840 --> 01:00:32,560
Speaker 3: that a legendary matchup too? Did Trevion go wild in

1314
01:00:32,600 --> 01:00:33,800
Speaker 3: that game? Either? He didn't?

1315
01:00:33,840 --> 01:00:35,680
Speaker 4: Ask it's coming, man.

1316
01:00:36,080 --> 01:00:39,080
Speaker 3: Dude, I hope it is. I hope it is. I Like,

1317
01:00:39,560 --> 01:00:41,240
Speaker 3: I don't want to be a Trevion hater, Like I

1318
01:00:41,280 --> 01:00:43,880
Speaker 3: loved him as a prospect. I still have a lot

1319
01:00:43,920 --> 01:00:45,960
Speaker 3: of faith in the kid. I'm just throwing out there.

1320
01:00:45,960 --> 01:00:49,120
Speaker 3: The numbers so far are concerning based off of what

1321
01:00:49,160 --> 01:00:50,880
Speaker 3: we've seen, and I know it's a limited sample.

1322
01:00:51,000 --> 01:00:55,120
Speaker 4: I know that too early. Tell those Trevion Henderson's stakeholders

1323
01:00:55,120 --> 01:00:57,520
Speaker 4: out there, Debra wants you to cut him, I recommend not.

1324
01:00:57,640 --> 01:00:58,479
Speaker 3: I never said that.

1325
01:00:58,560 --> 01:01:01,320
Speaker 2: I never said that. So much for going quickly on

1326
01:01:01,360 --> 01:01:02,080
Speaker 2: these last two games.

1327
01:01:02,080 --> 01:01:04,160
Speaker 1: By the way, Trevon Henderson RB twenty five or Madre

1328
01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:07,160
Speaker 1: RB twenty six and HALFVPR at ECR so back to

1329
01:01:07,200 --> 01:01:10,840
Speaker 1: back there Monday Night football, Chiefs at Jaguars. The Chiefs

1330
01:01:10,920 --> 01:01:13,440
Speaker 1: offense looked the best, most explosive it has in years

1331
01:01:13,480 --> 01:01:16,440
Speaker 1: against Baltimore. There's obviously a degree of like both elements

1332
01:01:16,480 --> 01:01:18,600
Speaker 1: being true here, but would you give more credit to

1333
01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:21,880
Speaker 1: Xavier Worthy's return to the lineup opening things up, or

1334
01:01:22,240 --> 01:01:25,120
Speaker 1: just the abysmal injured Ravens defense that they were facing,

1335
01:01:25,360 --> 01:01:27,720
Speaker 1: and kind of, you know, in answering that question, what

1336
01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:30,520
Speaker 1: do you expect for a follow up performance in Jacksonville,

1337
01:01:30,880 --> 01:01:31,760
Speaker 1: Fitzlock's start with you.

1338
01:01:32,480 --> 01:01:35,440
Speaker 4: Well, the Ravens defense has been bad, no question. I

1339
01:01:35,440 --> 01:01:38,280
Speaker 4: do think Worthy makes a difference. They needed a pass

1340
01:01:38,280 --> 01:01:41,560
Speaker 4: catcher could make explosive plays, and worthy speed absolutely helps

1341
01:01:41,600 --> 01:01:44,840
Speaker 4: create space for his teammates. I can't wait to see

1342
01:01:44,840 --> 01:01:47,680
Speaker 4: what this Kansas City offense looks like when Rashid Rice

1343
01:01:47,760 --> 01:01:49,840
Speaker 4: comes back in a couple of weeks, because the only

1344
01:01:49,880 --> 01:01:52,720
Speaker 4: time we've seen Rice and Worthy play together it was

1345
01:01:52,760 --> 01:01:55,360
Speaker 4: early last year and Worthy was still a little lost,

1346
01:01:55,600 --> 01:01:59,040
Speaker 4: like he's a totally different guy now. I'm not sure

1347
01:01:59,040 --> 01:02:01,280
Speaker 4: what we'll see from the chief this week. I think

1348
01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:04,959
Speaker 4: it largely depends on how well the Chiefs can block

1349
01:02:05,040 --> 01:02:08,240
Speaker 4: Josh heinz Allen, who has been an absolute playwrecker for

1350
01:02:08,280 --> 01:02:12,000
Speaker 4: the Jaguars this season, like stealth defensive Player of the

1351
01:02:12,080 --> 01:02:16,880
Speaker 4: Year candidates, So they've got to handle him. And other

1352
01:02:16,960 --> 01:02:20,920
Speaker 4: than that, though the Jaguars defense, the numbers say it's

1353
01:02:20,920 --> 01:02:23,160
Speaker 4: been really good this here, but it's also been very

1354
01:02:23,200 --> 01:02:27,160
Speaker 4: turnover driven, so we'll see other than Josh heinz Allen

1355
01:02:27,280 --> 01:02:31,120
Speaker 4: like I'm excited about the Chiefs offense, cautiously optimistic about

1356
01:02:31,160 --> 01:02:32,000
Speaker 4: it this week.

1357
01:02:33,120 --> 01:02:36,440
Speaker 3: Debra, I think a lot of that was the Ravens,

1358
01:02:36,520 --> 01:02:38,120
Speaker 3: and it's not all of it. They looked like a

1359
01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:40,520
Speaker 3: better offense. I think Worthy gave them a big boost

1360
01:02:40,600 --> 01:02:42,840
Speaker 3: and open up things for them. But it does have

1361
01:02:42,880 --> 01:02:45,240
Speaker 3: to get brought up that sixty two percent of Patrick

1362
01:02:45,240 --> 01:02:48,120
Speaker 3: mahomes yards came after the catch. He had the eighth

1363
01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:52,520
Speaker 3: lowest eight dot. Baltimore has not been a good tackling team.

1364
01:02:53,400 --> 01:02:56,880
Speaker 3: They have the eleventh most mistackles this year Jacksonville. That's

1365
01:02:56,880 --> 01:03:00,640
Speaker 3: not a problem. Their defense is playing out of their

1366
01:03:00,960 --> 01:03:04,080
Speaker 3: minds right now. I think this game is going to

1367
01:03:04,120 --> 01:03:07,440
Speaker 3: be a lot uglier than people might think, especially Chiefs fans,

1368
01:03:08,320 --> 01:03:12,160
Speaker 3: considering how the context of the Jacksonville defense. They have

1369
01:03:12,200 --> 01:03:14,760
Speaker 3: the third fewest misstackles, they have a lot of the

1370
01:03:14,800 --> 01:03:18,560
Speaker 3: lowest passer rating, and they lead the NFL interterceptions. And

1371
01:03:18,560 --> 01:03:22,120
Speaker 3: I'll throw out one name since Fitzi's given some shine

1372
01:03:22,160 --> 01:03:27,480
Speaker 3: the Jacksonville players, Devin Lloyd is playing some really inspired football. Dude.

1373
01:03:27,520 --> 01:03:32,200
Speaker 3: He is so freaking good. He has three picks right now,

1374
01:03:32,240 --> 01:03:36,080
Speaker 3: he's forced to fumbles. He's all like dude, he's all

1375
01:03:36,080 --> 01:03:38,400
Speaker 3: over the freaking field is playing. Time's gone up every

1376
01:03:38,440 --> 01:03:40,960
Speaker 3: single week. I think this game is going to be nasty.

1377
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:43,360
Speaker 3: I'm not telling you Jacksonville is winning this game, but

1378
01:03:44,160 --> 01:03:46,400
Speaker 3: I think the under is more in playing this game,

1379
01:03:46,440 --> 01:03:49,080
Speaker 3: and I think the Chiefs offense comes back to earth

1380
01:03:49,120 --> 01:03:50,600
Speaker 3: a little bit, although I do think they're going to

1381
01:03:50,680 --> 01:03:52,320
Speaker 3: have to pass the ball a lot because they're not

1382
01:03:52,360 --> 01:03:53,680
Speaker 3: gonna be able to run the ball versus them.

1383
01:03:54,000 --> 01:03:56,160
Speaker 1: I want to correct something I said earlier about thinking

1384
01:03:56,160 --> 01:03:58,480
Speaker 1: that Kyle Hamilton probably would play. He is not practicing

1385
01:03:58,520 --> 01:03:59,720
Speaker 1: again today on Friday.

1386
01:04:01,400 --> 01:04:02,560
