Speaker 1: caught on. Yeah, it really has people come at me.

23
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:14,119
Speaker 1: try to get through every single week one matchup. We're

24
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,080
Speaker 1: gonna try to hit a couple of mail bad questions.

25
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 1: We'll do some daily taps, of course, but we start

26
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 1: where else. But on Thursday night, no, you wanted news

27
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:34,639
Speaker 1: the world, breaking, breaking, breaking, continue to follow breaking news

28
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 1: a news kids. Wife had a little false start there

29
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 1: that so it was it wasn't so much a headline.

30
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:44,840
Speaker 1: So when you gave me the signal, I was like,

31
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:47,920
Speaker 1: what does he want? I had a quick, quick scramble

32
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 1: and I'm still on a couple of coffee number one.

33
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 1: So apology, brother, I hear you, and I appreciate it.

34
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 1: All right. New England Patriots hosting the Pittsburgh Steelers twenty

35
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: one your final. Who really cares about the final though?

36
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 1: It's Fantasy Bay. It's time to talk stats. Rob Gronkowski,

37
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, you just went crazy. He went ridiculous.

38
00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 1: You know. Adam Rank started the preseason off and got

39
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 1: everybody's attention by saying, Gronk is gonna go for twenty touchdowns.

40
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 1: He wasn't well, only inflating, and he is well on

41
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 1: his way they don't play the Steelers every week. Oh

42
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 1: my gosh, I don't think it's gonna matter. I mean, dude,

43
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,080
Speaker 1: he looked in many many guys have had twenty touchdown

44
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 1: catches in a year. Not many, not many, not many.

45
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 1: I mean, this dude can't do it. All I know

46
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 1: is the Steelers came into Thursday and I'd say, we

47
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 1: know how to stop Gronk. We're gonna jam in, We're

48
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 1: gonna do where to stop him. They showed everybody how

49
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 1: not to come because they had it. Didn't cover him.

50
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 1: A couple of four yards and three touchdowns Tom Brady,

51
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, yards not I mean no, not I popping,

52
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 1: but four down. They were very efficient. They ran their

53
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,920
Speaker 1: their dinking dunk offense to perfection. Dion Lewis, who had

54
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: hyped on the site if people were listening as a

55
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: potential PPR flex play, he got a lot of catches.

56
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 1: Julian Elman got a lot of catches. It was. It

57
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 1: was fun to watch their offense work. And Roethlisberger on

58
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 1: the other side of the ball, he would have had

59
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:19,919
Speaker 1: a great unbelievable if Darius Hayward Bay stay understand that

60
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,239
Speaker 1: that white area staying back it's not where you put

61
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,680
Speaker 1: your foot or or just stay up. I mean, I

62
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,359
Speaker 1: don't even I don't even understand why why was he

63
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:33,519
Speaker 1: he was practically laying on the ground. Just I don't

64
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 1: get it. Just but all stay up. I still had

65
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 1: over eighteen fantasy points. Pretty good. Yeah, most touchdown garbage

66
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 1: shutdowns still count. Still count three hundred and fifty one

67
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 1: yards through the air for Ben Roethlisberger. So pretty good.

68
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 1: I mean, i'd sell you what, D'Angelo Williams, I get it.

69
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: No Vince Wolf work in there. The Patriots defense, you know,

70
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 1: this is the thing. They look great one the final

71
00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 1: score and it wasn't close at all. I mean, it

72
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 1: really wasn't. New England was basically playing back at the

73
00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 1: back end of the game. But here's the thing. I

74
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 1: was watching the Patriots defense. I get that they get

75
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,600
Speaker 1: better as the season wears on, but it's gonna be

76
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: awfully hard for them to make Hay deep into the

77
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:20,320
Speaker 1: playoffs with that defense. That defense looks uh at Marcus Grant,

78
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 1: how how does that defense look? Uh? Not good? Looks good?

79
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 1: Would it? Would it be? It is? It is at

80
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:30,280
Speaker 1: least against the run, it's it looks I mean and

81
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not noting d' angelo Williams, but obviously

82
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:34,919
Speaker 1: there's a reason the Panthers decided to move on. And

83
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: he was going to be the number two guy in

84
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,480
Speaker 1: Bricksburg this year. But he looked fantastic last night, which awesome,

85
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,559
Speaker 1: Which makes me feel like you can start your running

86
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,160
Speaker 1: backs against the Patriots. That that's the point that I

87
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:47,560
Speaker 1: think I'm trying to hit on. And D'Angelo also lost

88
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 1: fifteen pounds. He looked a little bit lighter, like he

89
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 1: was back in Memphis. Uh. And he texted me this

90
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 1: morning and I said, anything you want me to tell

91
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: the fans on NFL Fantasy Live and he said, the

92
00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 1: Undertaker and I are similar. No matter the challenge, we

93
00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 1: will eyes the Undertaker. Can we take w w E.

94
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna call him the Undertaker pretty good. He's like

95
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 1: the Undertaker at SummerSlam. Enjoy it for one more week

96
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 1: until let me come back exactly exactly all right. So

97
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,279
Speaker 1: let's get some other stats here. How about Julian Edelman

98
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:23,040
Speaker 1: uh ppr monster man eleven catches, nineties, seven yards, no scores.

99
00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 1: But that's okay. Uh still put in I mean put

100
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: in work, my gosh. Uh Dion Lewis sixty nine yards

101
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 1: on the ground, but then in the air four catches

102
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 1: and fifty one yards. Somebody do the math from me

103
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,760
Speaker 1: here real quick. That's a hundred twenty about yeah, hundred

104
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 1: twenty yards exactly four catches. Uh, that's a sixteen point

105
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 1: game in in DFS. So for a random play like

106
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,840
Speaker 1: Dion Lewis, I mean if you if you played him

107
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,280
Speaker 1: in daily that's that's great production or even in your

108
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 1: flexing PPR. But if you didn't play him, woe be

109
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 1: unto you because who knows if he's going to be

110
00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 1: the guy next week? Um, that was hard to trust

111
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 1: anyone these guys, right right. He was my highest ranked

112
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,359
Speaker 1: running back on the New England roster. But we're weren't

113
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 1: advising people to start Dian Lewis unless you were in

114
00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:10,600
Speaker 1: a deep league because it could have been Brandon Bolden,

115
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 1: that could have been Wide, it could have been Lewis.

116
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 1: It was Lewis. Alright, so he's worth a pickup. Let

117
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: me let me take it to the next step. Is

118
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 1: he worth Um? I don't want to say every week,

119
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,359
Speaker 1: but is he at least in the consideration for a

120
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:26,919
Speaker 1: flex play every week? Now? Patriots backfield is too confusing

121
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,479
Speaker 1: and it's not going to change. Yeah, I gotta go

122
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 1: with that. I see you hesitated, you almost want to

123
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 1: go with it now. It's just volatile, like there are.

124
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:37,160
Speaker 1: There are certain teams that I'm staying away from their

125
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 1: backfields altogether, the Patriots, the Browns, probably the Cowboys too,

126
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 1: because that just seems to get more confusing by the day.

127
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 1: There's just some groups where it's just too much of

128
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,039
Speaker 1: a headache to try to figure out. I'm just gonna

129
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 1: avoid them altogether. How about it. That's that's the case

130
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: the Patriots backfield. I think it's it's very matchup dependent

131
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,039
Speaker 1: for Dean Lewis. From here on, I got a couple in.

132
00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,240
Speaker 1: I got a couple of like it. I also, I

133
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 1: was going to drop this one before, but I had

134
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 1: pulled the things down from the intro when you when

135
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 1: you didn't acknowledge me and fabs your boys, I was

136
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 1: gonna say the whole time, so we didn't have a

137
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 1: chance to get that we will, we will. I feel

138
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: like we're going to play that drop quite a bit,

139
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 1: probably a little too much. I like it. Um, how

140
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 1: about Antonio Brown? Though, I mean as good as advertised.

141
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 1: The guy's legit. I mean some of the catches he

142
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 1: was making. Ben Roethlisberger literally is just like, you know what,

143
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,239
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna throw it over there. That one An Brown,

144
00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 1: just just make the catch. That one catch he had

145
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 1: where his arms wrapped around alcolo helmet and he still

146
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:38,760
Speaker 1: caught the ball. Unbelievable, magician. Nine catches, a hundred and

147
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 1: thirty three yards and a touchdown. Oh my gosh, you

148
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 1: went nuts in this game. The touchdown obviously a junk touchdown.

149
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:51,040
Speaker 1: It's fine, I'll tell you, and you will absolutely take it.

150
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 1: So what is that? A nineteen point game and standard

151
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 1: h plus nine? Uh? In PPR, he's had now something

152
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 1: like eating playoffs. It's thirty four straight games with five

153
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 1: catches five plus yards. That is just like PPR. It's

154
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 1: amazing because teams know where it's going. They can't stop him,

155
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 1: can't stop him. No, Malcolm Butler, I gotta say I

156
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: was impressed by his his performance. Look, I get that

157
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:16,800
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown went nuts, it's fine, but Malcolm Butler actually

158
00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 1: played great. He was in coverage, uh and in good

159
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: position on a number of plays. Uh. He just Antonio

160
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 1: Brown is just too good man, too good he's just

161
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 1: too good. Any other any other notes that you guys

162
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 1: wanna well, Heath Miller had eight catches, had a whole

163
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,439
Speaker 1: bunch of targets h eighty four yards at a position

164
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,960
Speaker 1: that's really thin right now, so he could be worth

165
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 1: picking up off the waiver wire. But also keep in

166
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,240
Speaker 1: mind his targets likely to go down once, uh, we

167
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 1: get Martavis Bryant back in the mix. But and any

168
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,600
Speaker 1: time tight end has a decent game that might be

169
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,599
Speaker 1: on the waiver wire, you've got to go out and

170
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:53,680
Speaker 1: pick him up if you don't have someone you're confident

171
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: in because the position is so thin. I do think

172
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 1: what we saw last night though, with the targets being

173
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,439
Speaker 1: spread out, we saw a lot for We saw a

174
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,200
Speaker 1: couple for Darius Heyward Bay, although he disappeared after that

175
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 1: little gaff in the end zone I noticed. But we

176
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,839
Speaker 1: saw a lot from Marcus Wheaton. So that to me

177
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,319
Speaker 1: what it's encouraging, because I thought Marcus Wheaton still has

178
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 1: a little bit of a viability to him. But also

179
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,960
Speaker 1: I think it makes you feel better about what Martavis

180
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 1: Bryant's role is going to be when he gets back

181
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 1: on the field. If they were targeting secondary receivers that

182
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 1: much last night, Brian's gonna see the ball quite a bit. Yeah,

183
00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 1: that's exactly what I was gonna say. I don't think

184
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 1: Marcus Wheaton or DHB or anybody's gonna be holding off

185
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:29,840
Speaker 1: Bryant once he comes back into that offense because Bay

186
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 1: Bay was Um almost had himself an interesting game, right,

187
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 1: I mean, if he catches that touchdown, he already had

188
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 1: fifty eight yards, so it's not like he was horrible.

189
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:42,839
Speaker 1: It just you know, if he caught that touchdown, he

190
00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 1: actually has a pretty solid game. I gotta think a

191
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 1: lot of that production Um is gonna be going to

192
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 1: Martevios Brian. No, certainly, Oh yes, no doubt about that.

193
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 1: Oh can I just say Josh Skelby, Josh Skelby, I

194
00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 1: wouldn't pick him up before kickoff in several of my league,

195
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 1: and was horrified after he missed the second Well, the

196
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,600
Speaker 1: second one. Look, the second one was a forty six

197
00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 1: yard or so, I didn't feel that bad about it,

198
00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,280
Speaker 1: but man, the first one was a makeable field goal

199
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:16,960
Speaker 1: and he absolutely just shank that thing. Um. The fact

200
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 1: that he actually ended up hitting a forty four yard

201
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 1: or later and an extra point as well, Um kind

202
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:25,600
Speaker 1: of salvaged his um, his playability. But man, he was

203
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,760
Speaker 1: on the cusp of actually having a pretty nice game. No,

204
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:34,680
Speaker 1: I was super calm, still outscored Gostkowski. I know, Hey,

205
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 1: there you go, that's a that's a discipline because because

206
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 1: Gaskowski was only kicking extra points. I would say, that's

207
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,840
Speaker 1: the one last thing before we move on. Um, the

208
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,680
Speaker 1: one thing that I was concerned about sort of reared

209
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 1: its head last night. I mean, I know, Gronk went berserk,

210
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 1: and Juliettelman actually had a really nice night, almost a

211
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 1: hundred receiving yards. Uh, it's just where where's everybody else?

212
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:58,440
Speaker 1: I mean, Danny A. Mandela was just twenty four yards,

213
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:02,120
Speaker 1: Aarondopson with nine yards. And there will be there will

214
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 1: be days when Gronk is not just romping and stomping

215
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:06,680
Speaker 1: in his big black boots up and down the field.

216
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:10,600
Speaker 1: What happened? Where where's everybody else in that passing game? All? Right,

217
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:12,719
Speaker 1: there you go, let's move on. I do want to

218
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 1: say this, Uh, well, let's let's the next headline I

219
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 1: really wanted to get to really was the Dallas Cowboys

220
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:20,600
Speaker 1: backfield because I've been getting a lot of questions as

221
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:22,960
Speaker 1: to who to start, Um, you know, should I play

222
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 1: Joe Randall? Should I play Christian Michael? Should I play

223
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 1: Darren McFadden? How about that? So I try to get

224
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 1: some clarity from the Dallas Cowboys official website. This is great.

225
00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 1: I want people to do this. You go to the

226
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:40,480
Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys official depth chart Dallas Cowboys dot com. What's

227
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 1: the website is it? Dallas cows Cowboys dot com. Dallas

228
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 1: Cowboys dot com. Number one on the depth chart, Joe Randall,

229
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,320
Speaker 1: number two on the depth chart. Lance Dunbar, number three

230
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,840
Speaker 1: on the depth chart, A big fat blank, there's no

231
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 1: name there. Number four on the official depth chart, Christian Michael,

232
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,040
Speaker 1: Darren McFadden not even listed. That's what I don't trust

233
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 1: depth starts like that that often you can't you can't,

234
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 1: you can't like, you know, put too much steak in

235
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,160
Speaker 1: those depth charts because lots of times, as Chip Kelly

236
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 1: even said this year, when the first one came out

237
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 1: for the Eagle, somebody asked, Hibody's like, oh really, He's

238
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,439
Speaker 1: like the PR department puts that together. Maybe maybe they're

239
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 1: playing head games, but the Giants, but leaving McFadden off

240
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:20,080
Speaker 1: altogether that's where does that come from? Feel that is funny.

241
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 1: The biggest story about the Cowboys backfield is that there

242
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,760
Speaker 1: is no clarity there whatsoever. I mean, we heard there

243
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 1: were reports earlier in the week that McFadden could be

244
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 1: the starter. Now there are reports coming out on Friday

245
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,560
Speaker 1: or late Thursday, early Friday that it could be Joseph Randall.

246
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,280
Speaker 1: There's That's why there were one of the backfields that

247
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 1: I'm staying away from. There's just no clarity there. Clarence Hill,

248
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:43,319
Speaker 1: as you mentioned from the Fort Worth Start Telegram on Wednesday,

249
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 1: did say that Darren McFadden is the likely starter, but

250
00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:49,559
Speaker 1: that was on way back on Wednesday. Yeah, and then

251
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:51,840
Speaker 1: on that same day I saw people overreacting to that,

252
00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,280
Speaker 1: and then somebody else put out another Beat reporter tweet

253
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 1: that said Joseph Randal was getting the first team reps,

254
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:58,360
Speaker 1: and you know, you know who knows who's going to

255
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:02,280
Speaker 1: be the starter, probably Jason Garrett the Jones Boys, and

256
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,800
Speaker 1: that's it. They're not they're not gonna they don't need

257
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 1: to say who's gonna start. We probably won't know until

258
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 1: game time, all right, So there you go. Let's do

259
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 1: our Week one previews show We're gonna start Green Bay

260
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 1: at Chicago. Oh my gosh, every Green Bay starter is

261
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 1: a viable fantasy play, every single one. I mean if

262
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:23,720
Speaker 1: you're in a deep league. You know I've been saying

263
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 1: this too. We did Danger Zone on Wednesday, and Richard

264
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:29,319
Speaker 1: Rogers for me, is a solid start. I think even

265
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,719
Speaker 1: if you're in in a ten team league, I think

266
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,640
Speaker 1: he's an okay play. I'm dialing up. I'm on Green even.

267
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,559
Speaker 1: I'm gonna see if I can I can grab him somewhere.

268
00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 1: Um is there? Let me get some expectations very quickly

269
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 1: for a guy like Davonte Adams. Again, a lot of

270
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 1: folks not familiar with the name. Um, I know I

271
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 1: am extremely high on Davontae Adams, But can I get

272
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 1: some staff projections from you? Boys on Adams? FABS will

273
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,560
Speaker 1: start with you. I really think he's gonna have double

274
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:02,720
Speaker 1: digit fantasy points uh this week, maybe nine yards a

275
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:06,080
Speaker 1: touchdown if you look at the Packers wide receivers and

276
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,160
Speaker 1: what they've done to the Bears recently, I mean last

277
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,559
Speaker 1: three games, twelve touchdowns. And I know Jordy Nelson is

278
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 1: part of that, but Aaron Rodgers is also a big

279
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:15,360
Speaker 1: part of that. I think Rodgers is one of those

280
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:17,719
Speaker 1: quarterbacks who are rare in the NFL that can make

281
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:19,680
Speaker 1: their wide receivers look a heck of a lot better

282
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 1: than they are. And Davanta Adams is a really talented player,

283
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 1: so I think he's about as close to a must

284
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:28,160
Speaker 1: start as you can get for a non elite wide receiver.

285
00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 1: This week, I'm thinking about ninety yards in a touch.

286
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 1: I mean, I think that is legit for him this

287
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 1: week against that Bear secondary. Will we spent too much

288
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:37,120
Speaker 1: time together, I was gonna say eighty in a touch?

289
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 1: All right there? Who's gonna have the biggest game of

290
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 1: the Packers? Aaron Rodgers and Rogers? Where we go, it's

291
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 1: Rogers Rodgers of the skill position players, I think it's

292
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 1: probably gonna be Lacy though, because he's He's looked great.

293
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:51,160
Speaker 1: He's probably gonna get a few more touches on screen

294
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 1: passes and things, and uh, the game scripts could have

295
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 1: him them just salting away the win for a while

296
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:58,600
Speaker 1: if they get up early. Because the Bears defense is

297
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,400
Speaker 1: in transition from a four three to three four, Jared

298
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 1: Allen's playing outside linebacker, they got guys a lot of position,

299
00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,600
Speaker 1: and uh, I think the Packers is gonna be rare

300
00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 1: to go, and Eddie Lacey could have a huge day

301
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 1: to um hundred yards and a touchdown pretty much locked

302
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:14,160
Speaker 1: in feasible. A good stat Rich Rebar, who writes for

303
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 1: The Fake Football as Eddie Lacy in his last nine

304
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 1: consecutive games with over a hundred total yards. That's the

305
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 1: longest streak of any active running back right now. That's interesting,

306
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 1: all right, So that's pretty good. On the other side

307
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 1: of the ball, A lot of questions concerning Alshon Jeffrey.

308
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 1: A lot of folks spent a top four, top five

309
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 1: pick on al Shon Jeffrey. He's been dealing with reportedly

310
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 1: I used the quotes here with a calf injury because

311
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 1: we don't know what he's really been dealing with. He

312
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:40,560
Speaker 1: was limited on Thursday. Limited all preseason. We haven't really

313
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 1: seen him for a very long time. John Fox said,

314
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 1: he looks quote pretty functional. He looks pretty good. That's

315
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 1: what I want to hear about my number one. Pretty functional.

316
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 1: That's great. Wednesday actually was the first time he returned

317
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 1: to practice in almost a month, so it's been a while.

318
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:02,760
Speaker 1: I have no con evidence, no confidence whatsoever in playing

319
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 1: Alshon Jeffrey. Can anyone talked me off? Uh talk me

320
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 1: off to let you. But if he's if he's active

321
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:11,160
Speaker 1: in starting, how do you not play him? I don't.

322
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 1: I just can't. I can't do it. I mean we

323
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:15,800
Speaker 1: think with guys they're there are guys out there on

324
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,240
Speaker 1: the waiver wire. Eddie Royals on the waiver wire, and

325
00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:21,480
Speaker 1: a lot of uh Stevie Johnson's on the waiver wire

326
00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 1: in a lot of leagues. I drafted Jeffrey in the

327
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 1: second or third round and he's active, um and there's

328
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 1: no reports of limitations. I'm playing them. Man, I can't

329
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,400
Speaker 1: advocate it, talk me through this, fabs. Why why are

330
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 1: you doing it? Because he was one of the top

331
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:38,320
Speaker 1: ten wide receivers in fantasy, a player that you drafted

332
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 1: with probably one of your first three picks. If he's active,

333
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,160
Speaker 1: I just and the Bears are gonna be playing from

334
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,400
Speaker 1: behind in this game, potential garbage time points. Again, if

335
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 1: we hear that there's potential limitations, then okay, I'm thinking

336
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 1: twice about it. But if Alshon Jeffrey is active for

337
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:55,960
Speaker 1: the Bears, how is he not active for you? Unless

338
00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:58,560
Speaker 1: you were in a six team league and you're ridiculously

339
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 1: deep at wide receiver, and you only here have believed

340
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 1: that last year with Calvin Johnson was right when he

341
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:05,880
Speaker 1: was active, and it was like, yeah, I'm not I'm

342
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:07,800
Speaker 1: not starting to dude. The one thing, the one thing

343
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 1: to help convince you if you're on the fence is

344
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:11,919
Speaker 1: look if and you're about starting Jeffrey is look at

345
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,680
Speaker 1: the saddest of Morgan Burnett because he's the Packers top

346
00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 1: safety and he hasn't practiced all week either with an injury.

347
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,760
Speaker 1: So if he's out and Jeffrey starts, that could And

348
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:22,360
Speaker 1: but you're still a little word about Jeffrey that could

349
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 1: be something to help tip you over the edge, like

350
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 1: well maybe he could get busted coverage and get open.

351
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:27,680
Speaker 1: Because then it all falls on second year player ha

352
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,200
Speaker 1: Ha Clinton Dix, who has been better um and he

353
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:32,159
Speaker 1: he had he proved late and last season, but without

354
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,159
Speaker 1: his starting pair, it could be a mess in that

355
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:38,760
Speaker 1: Packers secondary. Very quickly. Expectations for Matt Forte and Martellis Bennett.

356
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 1: FAM's Bennett should see at least seven to eight targets

357
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 1: in this game, at least, especially if Austan camp play

358
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 1: and Forte. I'm interested to see what happens with him.

359
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:50,960
Speaker 1: Obviously he's a must start. Uh And let's see what

360
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,640
Speaker 1: the offense looks like this year because we're going into

361
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:57,160
Speaker 1: a completely different system. How many opportunities does he get

362
00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 1: as a pass catcher out of the backfield. I would

363
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:03,199
Speaker 1: think the numbers significantly decreasing based on what he did

364
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 1: last year. But Forte is the centerpiece of that offense,

365
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 1: with or without Alshon, Jeffrey same. I mean, I don't

366
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:11,640
Speaker 1: think we all need to hit the hit the same

367
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 1: things here because we gotta keep moving through the games.

368
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:14,719
Speaker 1: But I'm with Fabs. I think that Ben's gonna get

369
00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:16,320
Speaker 1: a ton of targets and fete them must start. I

370
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:18,360
Speaker 1: would say the Forte though, Yeah, he might not catch

371
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:19,960
Speaker 1: on hunt your passes this year, but at least this

372
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,720
Speaker 1: week with Alshon, Jeffrey, Hobbold and their wide receiver is

373
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,439
Speaker 1: just a mess, he may see quite a few. All right,

374
00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 1: Casey at Houston on the Casey signed Macklin, Kelsey, Charles,

375
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:31,160
Speaker 1: What what do we got here? Anybody got some strong

376
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:33,240
Speaker 1: takes on any one of these. Macklin had a huge

377
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,520
Speaker 1: game against Houston last year. It's a good matchup. I

378
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:38,919
Speaker 1: think you play him Kelsey obviously, no brainer. Charles no

379
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:42,160
Speaker 1: brainer as well. It's a great triplet pair of triplet

380
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:45,439
Speaker 1: pair whoofs a great trio of skill setation players. If

381
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:46,800
Speaker 1: you have any of them, put them in your line up.

382
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,639
Speaker 1: Too bad they don't have Peyton Manning or Drew Brees

383
00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 1: throwing them the football. Nobody's scared of the The Houston

384
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 1: defense just absolutely stifling a guy like Alex Smith. I mean,

385
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:57,440
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna get after him. I think you

386
00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 1: know you're gonna have what after him and we'll see

387
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 1: if you know what clowne he can do, how much

388
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,080
Speaker 1: he's on the field, that sort of thing. But I

389
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,359
Speaker 1: think he'll be fine. I've been excited about the reports

390
00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,720
Speaker 1: of him going deep downfield, and I'm gonna just mark

391
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 1: it down. A Chief's wide receiver will catch a touchdown

392
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 1: this year, Yes, I will say possibly even in Game one.

393
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: We will see Macklin's to talent to be held out

394
00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:18,639
Speaker 1: of the ends. And I'll tell you that on the

395
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 1: Houston side of the bal DeAndre Hopkins um obviously I

396
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:25,919
Speaker 1: must start. Uh. Anybody else who's people are going to

397
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 1: be playing Alfred Blue, that's well, it's just he's gonna

398
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 1: be a flex starter. Uh, not that the matchup is fantastic.

399
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 1: I'm also interested to see how much Bill O'Brien utilizes

400
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:39,240
Speaker 1: the guys behind him on the debt chart. Folk but blue.

401
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 1: And here's the good thing. If you drafted Area and

402
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:43,320
Speaker 1: Foster and I haven't. In about half of my leagues,

403
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,720
Speaker 1: the news reports are getting more positive every single day.

404
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,159
Speaker 1: It seems like, uh there, there was a report from

405
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:51,359
Speaker 1: CBS yesterday that he could be back by week two

406
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:54,399
Speaker 1: or three. Uh, it looks like he'll be back by

407
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 1: the beginning of October at the latest. At this point,

408
00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,399
Speaker 1: so if you drafted him, uh, good for you. You

409
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 1: could end up having quite a little bargain on your

410
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:04,320
Speaker 1: hands there, because he's one of the five best runners

411
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:07,120
Speaker 1: in fantasy football. But for this week, it's Alfred don't

412
00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 1: make my brown eyes blue as a flex starter. But

413
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:11,919
Speaker 1: it's not a great matchup, all right, Cleveland at the

414
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:16,360
Speaker 1: New York Jets. Can we just skip this one? Things

415
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,880
Speaker 1: to talk about? I think so. Duke Johnson is supposedly

416
00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 1: going to have a quote big role that according to

417
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 1: head coach Wish, he was cleared very recently after suffering

418
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:30,359
Speaker 1: a concussion. Expectations for Duke Johnson. I love probably probably

419
00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:32,240
Speaker 1: rides the bench this week. But well, it's not a

420
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 1: good matchup. I mean, crok Ell is probably the better

421
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,160
Speaker 1: play from a fantasy perspective based on potential volume. But

422
00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:42,480
Speaker 1: I mean the Jets allowed three point six yards per

423
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 1: carrey excuse me, three point zero six yards per carry

424
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,160
Speaker 1: and only four rushing touchdowns on their home field last year,

425
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:51,360
Speaker 1: and their defense got better. Yeah, Leonard Willings, he's playing, yes, so,

426
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:54,080
Speaker 1: but they're missing Sheldon Richardson stuff, So right now it's

427
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 1: kind of a lateral move. Once Richardson comes back, the

428
00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 1: defense got a lot better. Well, they got revis and

429
00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:00,840
Speaker 1: stuff too, exactly so that we'll be uh. And it's

430
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:04,200
Speaker 1: not like, are they are Brown's wide receiver? They gonna

431
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:09,240
Speaker 1: even catch a pass? That's a question a single pass. Well,

432
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:14,240
Speaker 1: Brown's wide receiver catch a single best playing this game

433
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:17,679
Speaker 1: might be hit me Jets defense, Well, I gotta I

434
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 1: got a better one for you, Jets boy. Chris Ivory

435
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 1: telling you right, Chris Ivory Sounder. The Browns last year

436
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 1: were one of the worst teams against the run. They

437
00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:33,840
Speaker 1: allowed a hundred forty one rushing yards per game. They

438
00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:35,879
Speaker 1: drafted Danny Shelton. He's not going to be an instant

439
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,159
Speaker 1: fixed on his own. This is a game. The Jets

440
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,560
Speaker 1: are the superior team, They're at home. They could get ahead,

441
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:41,960
Speaker 1: and it could be a case to like with that

442
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,399
Speaker 1: Lacy where they're salting away and win. With Chris Ivory,

443
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 1: he's gonna get passing down work. He's going to run

444
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,159
Speaker 1: through this defense, and I wouldn't be surprised if he

445
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:51,840
Speaker 1: put up RB two numbers. Give me know, do you

446
00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:54,400
Speaker 1: know how many games he didn't score double digits last year?

447
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:57,680
Speaker 1: I'm aware. I mean, I just don't trust him. Would

448
00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,920
Speaker 1: I have drafted him as like a four? But I

449
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:05,320
Speaker 1: don't trust Chris, I know, But that says more about

450
00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,400
Speaker 1: how bad the running back position is than how good

451
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:09,399
Speaker 1: he was. Yeah, but he also he's still like average,

452
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 1: like five yards of carry and it was the first

453
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 1: time he ever got over two hundred. I would guess

454
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:19,360
Speaker 1: he gets ninety yards and a touchdown. Touch you're looking

455
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 1: at last year in the last but seven games two

456
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:24,360
Speaker 1: point two points five point one, three point eight, six

457
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 1: point two, seven point seven, eight point six, five point three,

458
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:29,359
Speaker 1: nine point seven. He is what he is. He'll have

459
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:31,439
Speaker 1: some good games and maybe he will have a good

460
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:33,320
Speaker 1: game against the Browns. I also draws. They also have

461
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 1: Chan Gailey and they also have Brandon Marshall inte. Now, alright,

462
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,280
Speaker 1: he's gonna do it. You're on board. Well we'll talk

463
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:43,399
Speaker 1: about this on Tuesday. All right? How about Indianapolis ad Buffalo? Um,

464
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 1: are you worried the Buffalo defense is just nasty? I

465
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 1: mean just nasty? Or how concerned are you for guys

466
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 1: like Frank Gore? Maybe? I mean, look, I know you're

467
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:55,359
Speaker 1: gonna play Andrew Luck, but do we have to quote

468
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 1: unquote temporary expectations for Andrew Luck with I'm not I'm

469
00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:04,240
Speaker 1: not super worried. The biggest bully in that Bills defenses.

470
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:07,679
Speaker 1: Their front seven, their secondary has some question marks. Um,

471
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 1: and with for a guy like Andrew Luck, with all

472
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:10,760
Speaker 1: the weapons he has, as long as his offensive line

473
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:12,520
Speaker 1: can keep him upright, I think he should still have

474
00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:14,480
Speaker 1: a fine game. I'm a little more worried about Frank

475
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:16,640
Speaker 1: or uh, he's on the pitch count. I'm not worried

476
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:18,680
Speaker 1: about that. But their front seven again for him trying

477
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:19,960
Speaker 1: to get holes and stuff. But he can catch a

478
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 1: couple of passes and he's he's got flex flex appeal.

479
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:24,520
Speaker 1: But it's not the greatest matchup. If you have other options,

480
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 1: you might want to look out. I have Luck ranked

481
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,160
Speaker 1: eighth this week at quarterback. Hello, I've gotten somewhere around,

482
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,920
Speaker 1: I said, uh, I said, yeah, Marcus, you have him

483
00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:35,880
Speaker 1: at six. I had Roethlisberger ahead of him, Breeze, Romo, Ryan, Peyton,

484
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 1: Brady and Rogers expectation. Well, look at what the Bills

485
00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:44,720
Speaker 1: did Rogers last year, um, during the fantasy playoffs. I mean,

486
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:47,920
Speaker 1: he was invisible. That team is sick on that game

487
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:52,359
Speaker 1: may have gotten better. Jordy Nelson dropped a nine five

488
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:56,200
Speaker 1: yard touchdown in that play. Okay, would have changed everything. Sure, sure, sure,

489
00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,320
Speaker 1: but the bottom line is that Rogers gave you what

490
00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:03,159
Speaker 1: he gave you in Bill's defense is just it's just

491
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:05,040
Speaker 1: it could be one of the best defense. Is one

492
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,440
Speaker 1: of the top three defenses in the entire league, fantasy

493
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:09,439
Speaker 1: or reality. I mean, I think the fact that they

494
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,680
Speaker 1: add rect Ryan to it just makes that defense so scary.

495
00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,960
Speaker 1: But you're right there. The secondary play questionable at best,

496
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,440
Speaker 1: but that front seven maybe maybe the best front seven

497
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:21,280
Speaker 1: in all football, or at least definitely on the short list. UM.

498
00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,440
Speaker 1: I do want to talk about very quickly how about

499
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:26,439
Speaker 1: guys like Sammy Watkins or Lashawn McCoy. I gotta think

500
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:30,200
Speaker 1: Lashawn McCoy will be limited. Um, you know, if they're

501
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,680
Speaker 1: playing from behind, how much does McCoy get usage? I'm

502
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:36,359
Speaker 1: not exactly sure. Again, it's how about Sammy Watkins's wife. Well,

503
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 1: if McCoy's active, how do you not play him? I mean,

504
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:40,439
Speaker 1: I mean, honestly, you've got to play and he was

505
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:42,359
Speaker 1: the second round pick, maybe your first round pick. I

506
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:44,560
Speaker 1: don't like Watkins this week. I'm not a fan of

507
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,200
Speaker 1: him for the season. I don't think he has a

508
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:50,280
Speaker 1: huge breakout campaign. Um you know, he he's a guy

509
00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:53,159
Speaker 1: who could be covered by Vonte Davis. He could be

510
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 1: shouted by Davis. There's Brighton. Uh. Some some rumors of

511
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 1: potentially that happening. Uh. And here's a little staff war

512
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:01,040
Speaker 1: you from last year. The cold gave up twenty touchdown

513
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:02,720
Speaker 1: catches on the road. It seems like a lot, and

514
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,240
Speaker 1: it is a lot. But eleven came to Ben Roethlisberger

515
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,720
Speaker 1: and Tony Romo. So two games. Uh, the other games

516
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:10,720
Speaker 1: they were very tough. Tyrod Taylor is not Roethlisberger, He's

517
00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,360
Speaker 1: not Romo. Although I like him as a sleeper this

518
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:15,639
Speaker 1: week in DFS. It's more because of his ability to

519
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,160
Speaker 1: run the football, and the Colts gave up the fifth

520
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:20,280
Speaker 1: few of S fantasy points to wide receivers last year.

521
00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 1: Watkins just talented. If he was on another team with

522
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,159
Speaker 1: a different quarterback, he'd be ranked higher. I don't like

523
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:28,439
Speaker 1: him this week. Tyrod Taylor, Marcus grant you on board.

524
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:30,800
Speaker 1: I'm on board, on board. I'm on board. You know,

525
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:35,160
Speaker 1: let's do it. Deep leagues to QB leagues DFS. Definitely

526
00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,960
Speaker 1: on board with ty Rod Taylor. I mean, especially against

527
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 1: this Colts defense, which hasn't really been good the last

528
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:41,879
Speaker 1: couple of years. I like him to get out of

529
00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:44,200
Speaker 1: the pocket, to run around, to make some plays happen.

530
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 1: You know, I'm with FABS and I'm still not really

531
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,240
Speaker 1: big on their receivers, and I want to be. I

532
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:51,240
Speaker 1: really want to get on board with you know, Sammy

533
00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:54,879
Speaker 1: watching I do. I want to. I just I can't,

534
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,400
Speaker 1: but I can. I can get behind Tyrod Taylor. Um,

535
00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:01,200
Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor, planet home. Not lot of tape on him again.

536
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:05,880
Speaker 1: Legit athlete, super fast, big strong guy, big strong arm

537
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,360
Speaker 1: as well. Um wiz, I see you shaking your head.

538
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:11,359
Speaker 1: I know you're big on tyrodic can I can I

539
00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:13,880
Speaker 1: get a projection out of you from I won't say

540
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,679
Speaker 1: total total yards or anything like how many fantasy points

541
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:18,719
Speaker 1: I could see him, you know, if he gets if

542
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:20,440
Speaker 1: he gets touched down, a handful of rushing yards and

543
00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:23,160
Speaker 1: passing yards, maybe in the eighteen range. That's what I'm

544
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 1: think you want a little a little stat here for.

545
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:26,960
Speaker 1: It's pretty darn good. The Cults of a lot of

546
00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 1: hundred plus rushing yards and two of their last three

547
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 1: games against mobile quarterbacks Russell Wilson and Troll prior uh

548
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:35,840
Speaker 1: in two thousand thirteen, and Colin Kaepernick had these second

549
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,360
Speaker 1: most rushing yards among quarterbacks in the last two seasons

550
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:42,879
Speaker 1: under Greg Roman, who is now the offensive coordinator in Buffalo. Alright,

551
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 1: Tyrod Tyrod, me team Tyrod, team ty Rod all over

552
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:50,639
Speaker 1: Miami versus Washington. UM, I'm assuming everyone's gonna be starting

553
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:54,480
Speaker 1: every single Dolphin. The Washington defense is just atrocious. It's

554
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:58,080
Speaker 1: gonna be awful, and you gotta figure Miami's gonna get ahead. Uh.

555
00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:01,520
Speaker 1: They probably will get ahead early and often. Um. I

556
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 1: could see most of the Dolphins making a lot of

557
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 1: noise in the first half and maybe slowing down the

558
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 1: second YEP. I love Jervis Landry. Landry this week that

559
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:11,560
Speaker 1: the Washington defense they have a they had a better

560
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 1: front seven, but they lost some parts to it. They

561
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:15,560
Speaker 1: signed Junior Gleet, he got injured, Brian a rack Post

562
00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:17,720
Speaker 1: now in Tennessee. So they were They were a stout

563
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:19,680
Speaker 1: run defense last year, but I think they might fall

564
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:21,680
Speaker 1: back a step this year. But the secondary is where

565
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:23,840
Speaker 1: they have bigger question marks. So a guy like Jervis

566
00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 1: Landry could just feast. The Redskins gave up more fantasy

567
00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,360
Speaker 1: points to wide receivers than all but one team last year,

568
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,760
Speaker 1: so uh and and DeVante Parker could be limited in

569
00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:36,920
Speaker 1: this game. UH looks like but Landry is a good play.

570
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 1: Jordan Caraman is a good player, Lamar Miller is a

571
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,240
Speaker 1: good Tannehill. Tannehill is a good play. And then you

572
00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,960
Speaker 1: flip it over to the Redskins. I don't trust Cousins.

573
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,639
Speaker 1: He could end up doing uh, doing one of the

574
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,879
Speaker 1: garbage time performances like Roethlisberger did last night, to a

575
00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 1: point where he gives you a fifteen sixty fantasy points.

576
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:54,840
Speaker 1: But I don't trust to start him. I do like

577
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 1: to Sean Jackson Cousins likes to throw the ball deep vertically,

578
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 1: and that's where Jackson makes his Hey make sure he's

579
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:02,639
Speaker 1: active because he's missed all the preseason due to that

580
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:05,960
Speaker 1: injury suffered early. And uh, Alfred Morris is probably someone

581
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,680
Speaker 1: you have to start, and he typically does score two

582
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:13,240
Speaker 1: sounds in Washington, but it's a bad matchup. So the

583
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,080
Speaker 1: thing with Morris is, if you went out there in

584
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:17,880
Speaker 1: the draft, and first of all, I mean this year

585
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:22,399
Speaker 1: in particular, there's just a crazy number of sleeper running backs.

586
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:26,199
Speaker 1: If you drafted Alfred Morris is your RB two and

587
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:30,360
Speaker 1: you didn't back that play up at all, you're lost anyways,

588
00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:34,159
Speaker 1: You've lost the season. I'm sorry, Alfred Morris cannot be

589
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:38,280
Speaker 1: your r B two. He's a matchup play. Just because

590
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:40,760
Speaker 1: the guys finished in the top fifteen and Fantasy point

591
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:45,520
Speaker 1: every year, there's still one here, bigger, bigger Alfred Morris.

592
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,400
Speaker 1: Fans me. I love Alfred Morris. I think he's a

593
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,719
Speaker 1: super talented runner. He's just in a bad situation. If

594
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:55,960
Speaker 1: he was playing for fifteen other teams, he'd be a stud. Unfortunately,

595
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 1: they got a kid named Matt Jones has looked amazing

596
00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,560
Speaker 1: in the preseason. They don't like making to him the

597
00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 1: goal line, they don't like they don't like using him

598
00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:06,600
Speaker 1: in the passing game if they get crazy behind. And

599
00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,560
Speaker 1: again remember the Miami defense added a small guy by

600
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:12,280
Speaker 1: the name of Dominicanzou. He's gonna stuff the middle. I

601
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:18,680
Speaker 1: just boy, I cannot see myself playing Alfred Moors. Umm.

602
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:20,560
Speaker 1: I'm with you, James. I love Alfred Morris, but this

603
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 1: is how I feel every time I look at him

604
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:28,479
Speaker 1: in my lineup instead of Lisa, it's Shanahan or not

605
00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:31,120
Speaker 1: Alfred or Gruden or whoever the coaches that doesn't give

606
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 1: him the ball. And I do think this Pierre Garson

607
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,800
Speaker 1: is a sneaky play if you've got a DFS league.

608
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:40,640
Speaker 1: I actually like Pierre Garson, especially because of that PPR format. Um.

609
00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:43,440
Speaker 1: He and uh Kirk Cousins seemed to have a better

610
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:46,160
Speaker 1: rapport obviously than RG three and Pierre Cousins did. So

611
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say it. He's He's a really sneaky sleeper

612
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:53,560
Speaker 1: play in DFS play. And I wouldn't mind stashing one

613
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:55,560
Speaker 1: my bench either. All right, So we move on Carolina

614
00:29:55,560 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 1: at Jacksonville. Uh Jonathan Stewart play play playing all day.

615
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 1: I don't like Cam in this game. If you look

616
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,800
Speaker 1: at the numbers that quarterbacks produced on the road when

617
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:09,239
Speaker 1: they were playing the Jaguars, Jaguars got a sneaky good

618
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 1: demon and and actually that's a pretty decent DFS play. Uh.

619
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,520
Speaker 1: Is the is the Jaguars defense because they have what

620
00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 1: I would call an underrated defense, especially when you're playing

621
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,400
Speaker 1: at home. Uh. This is a unit that last year

622
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:25,280
Speaker 1: if you look at what they did against quarterbacks, Uh,

623
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 1: they they surrendered one or fewer touchdown passes in six

624
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,600
Speaker 1: of their eight home games last year. That's pretty tough.

625
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:32,720
Speaker 1: And I know that Cam can make his hay as

626
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 1: a runner, which is where he has a lot of

627
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:36,719
Speaker 1: his value. But a lot of people didn't draft Can

628
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:38,600
Speaker 1: to be there one. He was kind of like their

629
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,320
Speaker 1: one A one b Uh, not an elite one anymore

630
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:43,720
Speaker 1: so with Calvin and management out, I would say that

631
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:47,200
Speaker 1: Cam is a guy that that I'd be sitting this week.

632
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 1: I don't know, man. You know, it's interesting. I've been

633
00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 1: watching a lot of UM I've been looking at a

634
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,640
Speaker 1: lot of leagues. Cam goes exceptionally high for the for

635
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 1: the fan factor. He's got a lot of casual fans

636
00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 1: in his corner. The name name recognition, right name recognition,

637
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:04,160
Speaker 1: And and I'm still seeing him go extremely or not

638
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 1: extremely high, but a lot higher than he probably should

639
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:09,720
Speaker 1: given his circumstance, given the way he performed last year.

640
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:11,479
Speaker 1: But but yeah, I think a lot of folks are

641
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:13,960
Speaker 1: gonna be rolling with Cam Newton. And I would say

642
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:15,880
Speaker 1: this to the folks listening to us, and I get it.

643
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 1: Most most of the folks who listened to this podcast

644
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 1: are seasoned, UH fantasy players. But you know there's a

645
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:24,520
Speaker 1: few folks out there that are probably thinking about playing Camp.

646
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:26,920
Speaker 1: I would not play Cam Newton. I just would not.

647
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 1: There's too many other quarterback play Give me Tyrod Taylor.

648
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,040
Speaker 1: Man play Tyrod Taylor over Cam Newton? Am I crazy

649
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:36,080
Speaker 1: and saying that? Mg? Uh No, I don't think so.

650
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:39,280
Speaker 1: I I don't know that. I'm quite as down on

651
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 1: Cam as you are. I still think he can get out.

652
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:43,240
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna run more. I think he almost

653
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:45,200
Speaker 1: has to in this situation, and I think that's gonna

654
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:47,240
Speaker 1: help him quite a bit. But I still think he

655
00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:50,800
Speaker 1: can be productive. But I think if you drafted Cam Newton,

656
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,480
Speaker 1: you also drafted somebody else that you feel better about.

657
00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:55,800
Speaker 1: Starting at you would hope so, Eli Manning, you would

658
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan, anybody? Um, Alan Robinson, how high are you

659
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 1: on him? Area? This game? Wide wide receiver two this

660
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 1: game he's He's super talented. He's got a rapport with

661
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:07,360
Speaker 1: Blake Bortles. Last season, I forget the stating there. In

662
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:09,600
Speaker 1: their ten games together, Robinson was on pace for like

663
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:12,440
Speaker 1: a hunter and thirty targets. With Julius Thomas out, Allen,

664
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:14,480
Speaker 1: Robinson's gonna become probably the go to guy in the

665
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:16,479
Speaker 1: red zone. And I think Alan Herns is a sneaky

666
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:17,960
Speaker 1: good play this week too, because he got a lot

667
00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:19,680
Speaker 1: of a lot of action in the preseason. With Thomas

668
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:22,880
Speaker 1: on the sidelines, and with Mark Heasley injured as well,

669
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 1: this offense is probably gonna be throwing it around a

670
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:28,040
Speaker 1: little bit. Both rob Robinson and Hearns could have starting appeal.

671
00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,720
Speaker 1: You know what's interesting is Alan Hearns and my the

672
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 1: the other guy on the other side, UM, Corey a

673
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:38,400
Speaker 1: k a. Motown Philly Brown, Um are both really interesting. Well,

674
00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:40,760
Speaker 1: first of all, Corey Brown was my danger Zone pick

675
00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:43,560
Speaker 1: for for a week one. Either one of those guys Brown,

676
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:48,280
Speaker 1: which Philly Brown for Corey Philly Brown right, I like it,

677
00:32:48,520 --> 00:32:52,400
Speaker 1: But no, both of those guys are are interesting danger

678
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 1: zone guys because they could just catch long ones and

679
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:57,520
Speaker 1: that's what that's what Alan Hearns does. He catches long

680
00:32:57,560 --> 00:32:59,680
Speaker 1: ones for touchdowns. And if he does that, he's a

681
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,200
Speaker 1: great life. He doesn't do that, he's an awful part.

682
00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:03,720
Speaker 1: I mean that make that makes that makes him a

683
00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:07,320
Speaker 1: great DFS play. I mean those home run guys are like,

684
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:08,840
Speaker 1: I don't know that I could start him in a

685
00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:12,360
Speaker 1: standard league simply because I just I want that consistency.

686
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:14,360
Speaker 1: But if I'm if, if I'm swinging for the fences,

687
00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:17,040
Speaker 1: those are the guys I want. Alan Hearns, Corey Philly Brown,

688
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:20,560
Speaker 1: danger zone guys for sure. Jaxsonville RBS, though, what are

689
00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:24,719
Speaker 1: you guys doing? Well? Yelled do nothing? Yellen's a flex,

690
00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:27,000
Speaker 1: but Yelled is worth the play. I don't I don't know.

691
00:33:27,200 --> 00:33:29,240
Speaker 1: I don't love him this week. To be quite honest,

692
00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:33,120
Speaker 1: I don't like t J. Yelden. I mean I shouldn't look.

693
00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:36,480
Speaker 1: I'm sure, I'm sure, I'm sure he's a very nice guy,

694
00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,920
Speaker 1: but just watching him. I watched him, you know, I

695
00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:43,880
Speaker 1: watched this tape from from Alabama. But this guy, right,

696
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 1: he's a project. I mean he's he's gonna get He's

697
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:48,520
Speaker 1: exposed when he runs. I think he's gonna take a

698
00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 1: lot of hits. I mean, heshed on the goal line,

699
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:54,080
Speaker 1: and he's supposed to be a bigger back. He just

700
00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:58,400
Speaker 1: got his soul taken on the goal line. Did you

701
00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:00,880
Speaker 1: see the play? Like the under He tried to dive

702
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:02,960
Speaker 1: in and tried to dive in head first and ended

703
00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:06,240
Speaker 1: up on his back. And so I I wouldn't be

704
00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:10,239
Speaker 1: surprised if it's another year of Dinard Robinson's I think

705
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 1: they'll work a man. I think they He'll get touches

706
00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:14,239
Speaker 1: for sure, but I think Robinson will too. All Right,

707
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:18,400
Speaker 1: we move on New Orleans at Arizona, Brandon Cooks, how

708
00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:22,040
Speaker 1: about Coleman? Which Brandon Coleman? I was like Brandon Cooks,

709
00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:25,960
Speaker 1: Brandon Technicalman was down in this game. Um yeah, a

710
00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:28,800
Speaker 1: lot of points and a lot of fantasy players, relevant

711
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:31,440
Speaker 1: fantasy players to be had. Uh here who jumps out

712
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:33,839
Speaker 1: at you with? I love mark ingram this week. I

713
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:37,239
Speaker 1: know that Arizona has a pretty good, pretty good defense

714
00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:39,400
Speaker 1: is also at home. They lost the lost Top Bowls,

715
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,200
Speaker 1: but with Spiller out, Kyrie Robinson could get some work

716
00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:43,959
Speaker 1: um in the passing game, but they've also been throwing

717
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:45,600
Speaker 1: it to Ingram and he looked pretty good in the preseason,

718
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:48,359
Speaker 1: so I think he's still a pretty safe RB two

719
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:52,400
Speaker 1: play this week, purely volume two in that offense. I

720
00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:54,880
Speaker 1: like a lot of people love John Brown in this game. Uh,

721
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 1: New Orleans is missing two of their starting confident argue

722
00:34:57,600 --> 00:35:01,640
Speaker 1: with Andre Ellington, though it's a good match up to

723
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:03,839
Speaker 1: say it's defense is not good against the run. Last year,

724
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:06,920
Speaker 1: the defense is banged up at this point. Um. They

725
00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:10,120
Speaker 1: allowed an average of almost five yards per per carry

726
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:13,080
Speaker 1: and eight rushing touchdowns on the road last year. So

727
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:15,960
Speaker 1: the only thing that will get in Ellington's way is

728
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:18,640
Speaker 1: Ellington if he can't stay on the field or if

729
00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:21,279
Speaker 1: he's ineffective. Because I'll tell you something right now, Chris

730
00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:24,000
Speaker 1: Johnson is far past his prime and he's the second

731
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:27,480
Speaker 1: guy on the depth chart, not David Johnson. And you

732
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:30,399
Speaker 1: know arians likes to have that one back. Last year,

733
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:33,200
Speaker 1: before Ellington went down, he was averaging twenty touches a game,

734
00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:36,480
Speaker 1: So I like him as an RB two slash flexus. Yeah,

735
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:37,960
Speaker 1: it's a great matchup. I would like to see some

736
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:40,799
Speaker 1: good stuff from him, but MG, who sticks out for you?

737
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:44,279
Speaker 1: I mean I do like Ingram I you know, he's

738
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:47,520
Speaker 1: not on the list, and I would take a swing

739
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 1: if I'm really hurting at Marcus Colston. I mean he's

740
00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,600
Speaker 1: still there. He still had he had better numbers last year.

741
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:56,200
Speaker 1: The people remember, and I know he's not as consistent

742
00:35:56,239 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 1: as he once was, but with so many things going

743
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:03,240
Speaker 1: on around that Saints offense, he's kind of been the constant.

744
00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:05,520
Speaker 1: Brandon Cooks is going to be the number one receiver right,

745
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:08,919
Speaker 1: There's no doubt about that. But he's also gonna draw

746
00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:11,120
Speaker 1: probably a lot of attention from Patrick Peterson on one

747
00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:13,640
Speaker 1: side of the field. I still think Marcus Colston can

748
00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:15,520
Speaker 1: be a guy who puts up some sneaky good numbers

749
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:18,359
Speaker 1: is first week. The only reason I wouldn't co sign

750
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:21,239
Speaker 1: that is because Brandon Coleman didn't have a great preseason.

751
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:24,560
Speaker 1: Uh and you know everyone was kind of expecting him

752
00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:27,839
Speaker 1: before the preseason started to be an interesting sleeper play.

753
00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:29,839
Speaker 1: He didn't have a great preseason. I get it, but

754
00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:32,759
Speaker 1: it almost it's almost like it kills the value for

755
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,359
Speaker 1: both him and for Colston. I I don't know if

756
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,319
Speaker 1: either one of those guys is gonna be a great play.

757
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:39,800
Speaker 1: But I hear what you're saying, though, if if Colston

758
00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:42,759
Speaker 1: can can can get back to a little bit more

759
00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:45,719
Speaker 1: of that explosiveness he had a few years ago. Yeah, absolutely, Uh,

760
00:36:45,920 --> 00:36:48,640
Speaker 1: you know we know that Breefe trust the guy, So

761
00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:52,120
Speaker 1: so there's that. Um, I don't know, I just not.

762
00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:54,280
Speaker 1: I'm not terribly excited about either one. I know Brandon

763
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:57,480
Speaker 1: Coleman is going to be an interesting sleeper play as well.

764
00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:00,600
Speaker 1: All right, Detroit at San Diego. Uh, who jumps out

765
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:04,040
Speaker 1: here out for you guys other than a mer Abdulla

766
00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:07,799
Speaker 1: because I know every single person uh loves a mir Abdullah. Well,

767
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:11,040
Speaker 1: I'm very excited to watch what Calvin Johnson does to

768
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:14,880
Speaker 1: that defense. It's it's kind of like the rebirth of

769
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:17,920
Speaker 1: Megatron because last year he had a disappointing year with

770
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:20,600
Speaker 1: over seventy catches a thousand yards, but he wasn't a

771
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:23,000
Speaker 1: top ten fantasy wide receiver. I think he has a

772
00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:26,360
Speaker 1: big game. I'm not so big on Matthew Stafford because

773
00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:31,320
Speaker 1: he's just so difficult to predict. Um. And it's funny

774
00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:33,880
Speaker 1: because like what two years ago or even last year,

775
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,439
Speaker 1: people were picking him as a top ten quarterback, top

776
00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:39,720
Speaker 1: five he's had that. He's had that one big yearlockout

777
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:42,440
Speaker 1: year that when he left here, and really other than that,

778
00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:45,160
Speaker 1: he's kind of been what he is, you know, inconsistent.

779
00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:48,480
Speaker 1: Um to me, it's I mean, Jim Schwartz was a

780
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:50,879
Speaker 1: hundred percent let's just throw it all over the field

781
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:54,920
Speaker 1: kind of coach. Now they've got Jim Caldwell. Totally different offense,

782
00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,120
Speaker 1: very conservative, they like to run the ball, they like

783
00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:01,239
Speaker 1: the safer, shorter path is. I mean, it's just not

784
00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:04,200
Speaker 1: a creative offense. I just don't see Matt Stafford thriving

785
00:38:04,200 --> 00:38:06,080
Speaker 1: in this offense. He's still got the cannon man, but

786
00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:09,600
Speaker 1: he's got the weapons too. It's just the offense, it's

787
00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:11,400
Speaker 1: not there. For the biggest thing in this game to

788
00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:14,560
Speaker 1: watch is Melvin Gordon and what he does. And if

789
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:17,320
Speaker 1: Detroit's defense takes a step back, let's move on Tennessee

790
00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 1: at Tampa Bay. Um. I think the prevailing storyline, of course,

791
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,920
Speaker 1: will be the rookie quarterbacks, but not really fantasy relevant.

792
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:26,880
Speaker 1: Am I wrong in saying that anybody gonna take up

793
00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 1: for Jameis Winston or Marks Mariota dynasty, maybe past past

794
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,240
Speaker 1: past Martin. That's the that's the story from a fantasy

795
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:38,000
Speaker 1: perspective game, how effective will he be? I ask you,

796
00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,600
Speaker 1: Alex Skellhart, I think he should have a solid game.

797
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,239
Speaker 1: The Titans aren't the greatest defense. They have a couple

798
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:45,080
Speaker 1: of good guys up front like Drell Casey and things

799
00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:47,399
Speaker 1: like that. But the Buccaneers are gonna know they're gonna

800
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:48,719
Speaker 1: need to run to keep the pressure off of Jamis,

801
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,120
Speaker 1: especially if Mike Evans doesn't play, because he hasn't practiced

802
00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:53,080
Speaker 1: all week so far with a hamstring injury. So I

803
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:55,000
Speaker 1: think Doug could get a good amount of volume and

804
00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:57,440
Speaker 1: probably be a nice flex starter maybe RB two. If

805
00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,799
Speaker 1: your Titans were bad against the run last year, I

806
00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:02,560
Speaker 1: mean should be better this year overall. Least you would

807
00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:05,279
Speaker 1: think so, but they were bad against the run. Uh.

808
00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:08,040
Speaker 1: Earlier this week on NFL HQ, we had Gerald McCoy

809
00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:10,720
Speaker 1: on the show and he said that Martin looks great. Uh.

810
00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:13,279
Speaker 1: He's slimmed down, he is motivated, He's going to have

811
00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:16,400
Speaker 1: his best season since his rookie year. I'm not completely

812
00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:18,200
Speaker 1: drinking the kool aid on Doug Martin. I think he

813
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:21,080
Speaker 1: ended up being potentially could be a very good draft bargain.

814
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:24,160
Speaker 1: But I would certainly play him this week unless you

815
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:26,360
Speaker 1: are loaded at running back. He is a guy that

816
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:28,760
Speaker 1: you can utilize, even if it's just as a flex.

817
00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:31,640
Speaker 1: By the way we're taping here, it's about about eight

818
00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:33,839
Speaker 1: thirty here on the West coast. Uh, you gotta keep

819
00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:36,440
Speaker 1: an eye on Mike Evans. I know a lot of folks, uh,

820
00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:38,440
Speaker 1: you know, spent a very very high draft pick, no

821
00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:41,319
Speaker 1: later than a late second round draft pick probably on

822
00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:43,960
Speaker 1: Mike Evans. Gotta keep an eye on him. Watch for

823
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:46,720
Speaker 1: the practice reports later today because if he doesn't practice today,

824
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:49,759
Speaker 1: there's about a zero percent chance i'll say a one

825
00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:52,759
Speaker 1: percent chance that he plays on Sunday. UM, So just

826
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:56,680
Speaker 1: keep an eye out, just die out on the practice

827
00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:59,640
Speaker 1: reports for Mike Evans. Of course, you know you could

828
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:01,719
Speaker 1: follow that stuff on Twitter. It's it's all over the place,

829
00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:04,440
Speaker 1: so so don't worry about that. But again, just again,

830
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:06,400
Speaker 1: if you're if you've got Mike Evans, just keep in

831
00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 1: mind he's been injured all weeks. So there you go,

832
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:12,479
Speaker 1: all right. Cincinnati at Oakland, UM, a lot of very

833
00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:15,839
Speaker 1: good fantasy plays. Uh. Here I'll start by saying, man

834
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:19,680
Speaker 1: on the Oakland side of the ball, I absolutely love

835
00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:24,560
Speaker 1: Amari Cooper. I absolutely love Latavius Murray. Cincinnati's got a

836
00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:28,160
Speaker 1: great defense. I get it. But man, those guys, to me,

837
00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:31,560
Speaker 1: any format must start. I love him. I'm all in

838
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:34,440
Speaker 1: on him. I agree they're great with Sam with the Bengals.

839
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:37,520
Speaker 1: Start Jeremy Hill, start a j Green, Start Tyler Eiffert.

840
00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:39,239
Speaker 1: I think he's gonna be a crazy high scoring games.

841
00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:41,320
Speaker 1: I think you could start GEO two as a flex.

842
00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:43,759
Speaker 1: You know, we all we always talk about how Ryan

843
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:46,400
Speaker 1: Matthews because that offense is a nice flex starter this

844
00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:48,800
Speaker 1: week against Atlanta, because of the matchup and because of

845
00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:50,960
Speaker 1: the system. But I think if you are in a

846
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:53,680
Speaker 1: pinch this week, especially in the PPR League, yeah, don't

847
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:57,239
Speaker 1: forget it, dude. Man, this is not a guy who

848
00:40:57,280 --> 00:40:59,040
Speaker 1: who is a Code Kirker. He is someone who can

849
00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:01,200
Speaker 1: really play. He's not a Hammon Egger. He is not

850
00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:03,839
Speaker 1: a Hammon Egger, no question about that. And I would

851
00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:05,520
Speaker 1: play him, and actually I am playing him as a

852
00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:08,319
Speaker 1: FLEXI in one of my league's The Raiders history is

853
00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:10,799
Speaker 1: not a good day against the run. Terrible clil Mac

854
00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:13,680
Speaker 1: can't do everything. Guys know he's an awesome player, but yeah, no,

855
00:41:13,719 --> 00:41:16,719
Speaker 1: the defensive as a whole is just absolutely awful. Baltimore

856
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:21,200
Speaker 1: at Denver Um Baltimore side not terribly interesting other than

857
00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:24,319
Speaker 1: justin for set. But I will give this time for

858
00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:28,480
Speaker 1: Alex Gillhard to tell me about one Mr Crockett Gilmore.

859
00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:31,000
Speaker 1: Look right now, nobody's emerged as the number two wide

860
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:34,040
Speaker 1: receiver Trustman's offense. His favorite of the tight ends a

861
00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:36,719
Speaker 1: lot in recent history. Gilmore is a huge target in

862
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:38,840
Speaker 1: the red zone. Steve Smith, as amazing as he is,

863
00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:40,919
Speaker 1: can't do it on his own. I'm actually probably gonna

864
00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:43,120
Speaker 1: start Gilmore in a couple of leaks this week, and

865
00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:46,759
Speaker 1: he's a very very affordable bargain in DFS if you

866
00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:48,920
Speaker 1: wanna go for him at tight end and build your

867
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:51,160
Speaker 1: roster elsewhere he's he could see a fair amount of

868
00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:53,080
Speaker 1: targets too. I feel like we say this about every game.

869
00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:56,640
Speaker 1: There's sleeper tight ends everywhere? Everywhere? Are there sleeper tight ends?

870
00:41:56,640 --> 00:42:01,440
Speaker 1: Are there's just no tight ends? And true s answer

871
00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:04,239
Speaker 1: would be the latter. I like to stay positive, say

872
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:06,719
Speaker 1: they're sleepers. No, But um, can I throw a name

873
00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:08,920
Speaker 1: out here? I mean you, you're not gonna pick this

874
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:12,960
Speaker 1: guy up. You're not gonna play him in any format whatsoever.

875
00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:17,240
Speaker 1: But yes, it is but man, there is a guy

876
00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:21,560
Speaker 1: in Baltimore. I want everybody who can hear my voice,

877
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:25,640
Speaker 1: uh to keep a tab on a kid by the

878
00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:30,360
Speaker 1: name of Darren Waller there in huge. He's six seven,

879
00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:33,840
Speaker 1: he ran a four four six forty. He's out of

880
00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:39,200
Speaker 1: Georgia Tech body speed size wise, he's again looks like

881
00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:43,239
Speaker 1: that classic Georgia Tech wide receiver. By classic, I mean

882
00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:48,040
Speaker 1: Calvin Johnson to Marius Thomas, big body, super fast. He's

883
00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:50,040
Speaker 1: still working on the route running. I get it, but

884
00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:53,920
Speaker 1: the hands are still there. Um and Joe Flacco. If

885
00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:56,840
Speaker 1: there's anybody in this league that can throw a good

886
00:42:57,320 --> 00:43:00,600
Speaker 1: high point ball, it is Joe Flacco. The Ravens are

887
00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:02,440
Speaker 1: not good against the past. They weren't it against the

888
00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:05,040
Speaker 1: past last year. How do you not play Peyton Manning?

889
00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:08,520
Speaker 1: I like Sanders, I mean it's hard not to like c. J.

890
00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:12,040
Speaker 1: Anderson and Marius Thomas in this contest as well, like

891
00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:14,960
Speaker 1: all those guys way more right than uh than than

892
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:16,680
Speaker 1: Peyton man We gotta speed here. Feb has got a

893
00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:19,239
Speaker 1: meeting to get too shortly so and then on the

894
00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:23,160
Speaker 1: Ravens side of the ball, Steve Smith is an interesting play.

895
00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:26,000
Speaker 1: The matchup is bad. I mean the Broncos gave up

896
00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:28,680
Speaker 1: like fourteen touchdowns to wide receivers all of last year,

897
00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:32,000
Speaker 1: so the matchup is really bad. But how many targets

898
00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:33,880
Speaker 1: is he gonna see in that game? And Joe Flacco

899
00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:36,400
Speaker 1: stinks on the road unless it's a playoff game. New

900
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:40,600
Speaker 1: York Giants at Dallas Cowboys a lot of Fantasy points.

901
00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:45,239
Speaker 1: Quickest analysis of all time. James start them all, start

902
00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:49,600
Speaker 1: This is Rashan Jennings. Keep getting a lot of questions

903
00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:52,520
Speaker 1: about Rashana Jenny. Play Rashanda Jennings. Man, he's healthy. He's

904
00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:55,719
Speaker 1: good when he's healthy. He's he's healthy right now. And

905
00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:57,839
Speaker 1: if you're gonna rely on one Dallas back, I guess

906
00:43:57,840 --> 00:43:59,680
Speaker 1: we're all on Joseph Randal this weekend and we see

907
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:03,880
Speaker 1: some Claire. Uh No, I'm actually on. I'm actually surprisingly

908
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:06,400
Speaker 1: on Darren McFadden. I'll play durn McFadden. All right, we'll

909
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:10,439
Speaker 1: play both. Speaking of games, if we start everyone Philadelphia

910
00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:14,120
Speaker 1: at the Hotlanta, I mean, come on, get him all

911
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:16,040
Speaker 1: your line. Yeah, this is gonna be like, this is

912
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:17,560
Speaker 1: gonna be like a college game. It should be a

913
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:20,279
Speaker 1: fun game to watch on Monday night. Oh, by the way,

914
00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:22,359
Speaker 1: can I just say very quickly. I'm all aboard. I'm

915
00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:24,400
Speaker 1: pushing all my chips. I know, I said Mark Tavis

916
00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:27,520
Speaker 1: Bryant March to eleven hundred. I'm changing it slightly. I

917
00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:30,319
Speaker 1: didn't know about the suspension. A good thing. Anam Ranks

918
00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:32,200
Speaker 1: not here because he punched me right square in the face.

919
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:35,960
Speaker 1: But I'm saying Tevin Coleman, I'm pushing all in. Watching

920
00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:38,720
Speaker 1: enough tape on the guy, I'm I'm feel confident about

921
00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:41,800
Speaker 1: his abilities and his role in this offense. Tevin Coleman

922
00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:46,040
Speaker 1: March to eleven hundred. Eleven hundred total yards. Uh for

923
00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:49,279
Speaker 1: Tevin Coleman, I'm going all in. If he doesn't get

924
00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:53,160
Speaker 1: to eleven hundred total yards by the end of his

925
00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:56,000
Speaker 1: fifteen game or I guess the second last week of

926
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:59,400
Speaker 1: the season, I will come on NFL Fantasy Live in

927
00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:05,360
Speaker 1: address in a Stanford tree. Wow, that's how confident I

928
00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:09,160
Speaker 1: am in it here. First, Coleman, start everybody in that game. Alright,

929
00:45:09,239 --> 00:45:12,800
Speaker 1: last game, alright, last game Minnesota at San Francisco. Um,

930
00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:15,080
Speaker 1: So why was it Monday? Footbabylay is going from a

931
00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:17,000
Speaker 1: game that's gonna be super entertaining to one that's just

932
00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:21,040
Speaker 1: gonna be the pressing. Well, Peerson's in the game, he's

933
00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:25,520
Speaker 1: back pressing, and it's coming from the Niners fans. Carlos

934
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:29,960
Speaker 1: hide a lot of concern there obviously. I mean, I

935
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:31,480
Speaker 1: think he can be a good bag. I think he's

936
00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:33,120
Speaker 1: a talented back, but I think this is a team

937
00:45:33,120 --> 00:45:34,680
Speaker 1: that's going to be behind a lot and he's a

938
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:37,279
Speaker 1: two down back, so you're not gonna see a lot

939
00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:39,080
Speaker 1: of them, especially in the second half if they are

940
00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:43,120
Speaker 1: losing the way everybody anticipates. Um. You know, I think

941
00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:45,879
Speaker 1: there's still some talent on that defense. They're gonna still

942
00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:48,520
Speaker 1: lose games. I don't think they're just going to be

943
00:45:48,560 --> 00:45:50,640
Speaker 1: a sieve like a lot of people are anticipating. There's

944
00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:53,080
Speaker 1: still talent there, but they're not gonna be enough to

945
00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:56,120
Speaker 1: slow down Adrian Peterson. Like Navarro Bowman can't tackle everybody.

946
00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:59,359
Speaker 1: Uh forty Niners. I will say this. I don't know why,

947
00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:01,440
Speaker 1: I just rain only I'm I'm high on Vernon dit

948
00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:04,560
Speaker 1: On randomly. I'm the guy's a good player, obviously, so

949
00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:06,680
Speaker 1: Vernon Davis. I feel like it's gonna have a bounce

950
00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:09,000
Speaker 1: back year and for his draft price, he was a

951
00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:11,719
Speaker 1: great great It's fine great part like that. Sorry, guys,

952
00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:13,359
Speaker 1: we can't get to your mail back questions. We gotta

953
00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:27,040
Speaker 1: go straight to the daily depths. He desinite. Do you

Speaker 1: It's an amazing blend of sci fi and fan seeing.

967
