20
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 1: week ten. Yeah, it was. It went sideways in a

21
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 1: bunch of ways, it did. I mean, we had a

22
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 1: like a ton of like big favorites. And obviously Philly

23
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:28,039
Speaker 1: failed last night against your Cowboys, and whoa, that was

24
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 1: a good one. I wouldn't expect that one. I was

25
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,039
Speaker 1: not expected. We're talking in between the show, and I

26
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,600
Speaker 1: was bashing the Cowboys and saying they had no chance.

27
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 1: And I was bashing the cowboys. Maybe that's what I

28
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 1: need to do. Check, that's what we call it checking,

29
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: That's what I need to do. And then of course

30
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: behind the glass Edward Murphy, how are you, Murphy? I'm great.

31
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 1: We have my buddy special guest, Maurice Jones Drew here

32
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: New York Football Giants tonight. What could be better than that?

33
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's gonna be a tough one cross

34
00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 1: country against those Niners. Yeah, and at this point, you

35
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 1: guys should just be, you know, tanking full tank for

36
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 1: take after the Knicks. Full tank. What I'm all for that?

37
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: How does that help the Knix out. We're gonna get

38
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 1: Zion Williamson and just like the Giants will get whoever

39
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 1: the top player in this draft is gonna be great.

40
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:15,639
Speaker 1: All Right, you guys done talking basketball? Alright, let's start

41
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:31,519
Speaker 1: off with the fantasy headlines and this is the big one, guys,

42
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 1: and it's great there we have m J D here

43
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 1: for this one. Uh. Levian Bell is not expected to

44
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 1: report to the Steelers on Tuesday, and this has been

45
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 1: like a soap opera for the entire season. Is he

46
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 1: coming back? Is he not coming back? Is he gonna report?

47
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,080
Speaker 1: Is he gonna play this season? Uh? So, Maurice, as

48
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,120
Speaker 1: a former running back, if you were in the same

49
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,520
Speaker 1: situation as Levian is right now, knowing what we know

50
00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 1: now that he doesn't need to report in order to

51
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 1: be I'm a free agent next season, would you show

52
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 1: up at the Steelers facility tomorrow? Uh? I me personally,

53
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,080
Speaker 1: I wouldn't. There's no reason for me to show up.

54
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 1: I mean in this game. You know, this is a

55
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 1: very dangerous game that we're playing. It's a it's not

56
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,239
Speaker 1: a contact game. It's a collision game. And we've seen

57
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 1: so many injuries from guys who's shown up and played.

58
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 1: We've seen so many injury from young guys, old guys

59
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 1: all over the place. If I'm leavy on and I

60
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 1: understand my value and understand what my resume is, which

61
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,519
Speaker 1: is my body, I'm gonna make sure that it's completely

62
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 1: healthy for the team that's gonna invest in me, and

63
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 1: so obviously Pittsburgh isn't that team. And we knew that.

64
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 1: You knew that back in June when they didn't get

65
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 1: a deal done. Um, you know it's time now to

66
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 1: to to move forward and look forward to your next team. Graham,

67
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: is it safe to say that Levian Bell and this

68
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 1: is so odd to say this might be the most

69
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 1: dropped player in fantasy football tomorrow. Not only that, I mean,

70
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 1: is he like the worst top two pick ever? No,

71
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 1: like for a fantasy purposes. I mean, he didn't even

72
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 1: we don't get any production, I think, do you? I mean,

73
00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 1: you gotta remember David Johnson last year, but he got

74
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,600
Speaker 1: hurt Week one, right hurt though. That's the thing is

75
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 1: love Bell didn't even show up. I mean, obviously I

76
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: agree with you he's protecting himself as protecting his future earnings.

77
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,280
Speaker 1: But I mean, man, it's really tough to not he

78
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,400
Speaker 1: didn't get anything out of it. It was crazy. You

79
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,160
Speaker 1: remember we were doing the draft and everyone was like,

80
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 1: should I take him? I took him. That's that's that's

81
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:30,279
Speaker 1: the decision we had to make. It's earlier Bell this year,

82
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 1: and many people went though, yeah, a lot of people

83
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 1: did you gotta you have to understudy the facts, man,

84
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 1: understand you know, And I think I think when you

85
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 1: play this game, you have to You can't just worry

86
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 1: about when you're drafting. You just can't just focus on like, Okay,

87
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 1: what do you do last year? You have to look

88
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,719
Speaker 1: at going forward, like is this guy gonna be a

89
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,840
Speaker 1: tremendous player going forward? The guys who you know. I

90
00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 1: think one of the things Levy on bill By not

91
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 1: showing up was shown is you know, Antonio Brown's value

92
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,320
Speaker 1: has dropped a ton. He's had he hasn't had the

93
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,839
Speaker 1: same consistency as he has he's had in the past,

94
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,600
Speaker 1: and that sucks, right, even though they had the big

95
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 1: game this past Thursday, they haven't been the best that

96
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 1: big Ben Antonio Brown hasn't been the best. They've kind

97
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: of figured it out and trying to work through some things.

98
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 1: But you know, a lot of stuff has happened in

99
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,239
Speaker 1: the in this situation. I think David Johnson, he's playing

100
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:18,160
Speaker 1: and he's still producing a little bit. I mean the

101
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks he produced more. But I don't

102
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 1: know if I would say the worst ever, would you

103
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,280
Speaker 1: say the worst ever? It's just I mean, I can't well,

104
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 1: you got nothing. I can't imagine nothing. There's this situation

105
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 1: I can't imagine. And if you another situation like that,

106
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 1: if you didn't get James Conner, sorry, but that's crazy

107
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,039
Speaker 1: for you not to get James Conner. That I was

108
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: lucky enough to get Connor in a trade with ok

109
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:44,360
Speaker 1: Bar before we knew, because like we didn't know. We

110
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,360
Speaker 1: were all sort of under the impression that he needed

111
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 1: to play this season everybody in order to accrue enough

112
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 1: time to become a free agent next season. Now and

113
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 1: and you you guys have the same agent. So I

114
00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 1: don't know if the agent didn't know or if he

115
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:02,279
Speaker 1: held on every everybody to make it clear everyone understood

116
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:04,240
Speaker 1: that that you know, first of all, this is the

117
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 1: first time anyone has been in this situation, I want

118
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 1: to say since nine, which is crazy. Um, but you know,

119
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,480
Speaker 1: there wasn't There was an inkling that this may happen,

120
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 1: but no one really knew because no one has ever

121
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:20,720
Speaker 1: been through it. So understanding it and really, you know,

122
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:25,280
Speaker 1: like I said on uh Dave Damascheck's football program, it's

123
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:26,719
Speaker 1: like you have to you have to make sure that

124
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 1: you you're giving your your your client. Obviously levy On

125
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 1: the best advice possible. And so you know this is

126
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,359
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, this is levy On's decision,

127
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 1: and I think for me personally, and which a lot

128
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,280
Speaker 1: of people probably wouldn't agree with because he's leaving a

129
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 1: lot of money on the table. But you know, you

130
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:43,720
Speaker 1: have to know your worth and in that situation, I

131
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 1: think we we all know fantasy wise how much Lebian's worth,

132
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 1: and I think in real football we understand how much

133
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 1: Levian's worth. So I if you if that's on you,

134
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:54,719
Speaker 1: if you didn't take James Conner, though, I mean that

135
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 1: you always take the handcuff to a top pick always,

136
00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 1: like if I if I have Todd Gurley, I'm gonna

137
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 1: make sure that grabbed Malcolm Brown. And just in case

138
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,359
Speaker 1: something happens, you always have to have insurance. Yeah, the

139
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 1: the situation here is gonna come to a close one

140
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 1: way or another tomorrow, and um, all expectations right now

141
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,440
Speaker 1: or that Bell won't show up and we won't see

142
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 1: Levian Bell in a Steelers jersey ever. Again, another huge

143
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 1: news bit that just broke and we kind of saw this.

144
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 1: You were at the game yesterday, Uh, Cooper cop out

145
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 1: for the season to Yeah, that's hard to see, man,

146
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 1: I mean he is a very important piece to this

147
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 1: this offense. Um, the third receivers gets a ton of

148
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 1: passes done, a ton of things. Um. It was weird

149
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 1: to see it though, was just like you don't even

150
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 1: see his knee buckle. It's just like he was running

151
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 1: he stopped in and so yeah, those are the ones, right,

152
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: those are the ones. So, um, you know again a

153
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 1: guy that that did so much for this team, and

154
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,920
Speaker 1: he was like another quarterback in the huddle. Um, you know,

155
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: hopefully the Rams will be able to bounce back from

156
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 1: this and and and you know play well. But we

157
00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 1: always said earlier in the year that the Rams are

158
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,200
Speaker 1: so top heavy they have to figure out a way

159
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,200
Speaker 1: to help their depth. Right. So Josh Reynolds, a guy

160
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 1: Kadell Hodge is another guy that you'll be looking at,

161
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 1: uh possibly picking up that can play that third receiver position.

162
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 1: So you've got six teams on a Bigram Josh Reynolds

163
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 1: on your radar. Absolutely. And on that note, I mean

164
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 1: Robert Woods will kick back into the slotting and cups

165
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,000
Speaker 1: to miss games this past year in weeks seven a

166
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 1: week a Woods ran his roots from the slot. Josh

167
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 1: Reynolds will stick on the outside. I'm just expecting more

168
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 1: targets in touches for Cooks, Woods and Curly. I think

169
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,199
Speaker 1: Reynolds will get a few a few looks here and there.

170
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 1: He'll be a fine receiver. Four play better than that.

171
00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:37,719
Speaker 1: They'll just feed their big three. And we've seen the

172
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 1: Ramps tight ends factor into the red zone opportunities as well.

173
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 1: They're not getting a ton of targets, but they did

174
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 1: each score a touchdown yesterday. They're slowly getting better. Um

175
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 1: early in the year, obviously, you know, following them and

176
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,320
Speaker 1: understanding kind of their their team and what's going on,

177
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:55,400
Speaker 1: they were looking to possibly trade for another tight end. Um,

178
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 1: they were trying to find a guy to fit that void.

179
00:08:57,800 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 1: But Higbee and and ever To have stepped up huge

180
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 1: and they and they've been big time players. They both

181
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 1: are mismatches on the field and they find ways to

182
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 1: get open. And I think you'll see them grow as

183
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 1: the season goes on. So make sure if you if

184
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:09,640
Speaker 1: you have some tight end issues and they're playing the

185
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 1: defense that gives up a lot against the tight end.

186
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:12,480
Speaker 1: The tight ends are starting to show up now. It

187
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 1: was good to see yesterday who the Higbee touchdown was

188
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,319
Speaker 1: actually a scheme play. Higby came into block and then

189
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,440
Speaker 1: he leaked out on that back side was wide open.

190
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 1: It was a great scheme play from McVeigh because he

191
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 1: never ever schemes plays ever to his tight end. It's

192
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 1: always stole that from the UH the Saints. Saints running

193
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 1: that against him, from one wide receiver who's going to

194
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 1: be out for the year to another one who is

195
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 1: looking like he could be out until December. In a J. Green,

196
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 1: uh first game without a j. Andy Dalton did not

197
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:43,560
Speaker 1: look good. Graham and I talked about this last week.

198
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 1: When a J. Green is not on the field, Andy

199
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:49,079
Speaker 1: Dalton is a below average quarterback from a fantasy perspective.

200
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,440
Speaker 1: We saw John Ross get into the end zone. He

201
00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,320
Speaker 1: didn't targeted a lot. What are your expectations for this

202
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 1: Bengals offense moving forward? Look, and it looks like a J.

203
00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,280
Speaker 1: Green could miss at least a couple of more games. Yeah,

204
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,719
Speaker 1: you know, it's tough because they played a team that's

205
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 1: on fire right now. You're saying to it seems like

206
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 1: they're okay to shootout every week and their company and

207
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:10,800
Speaker 1: they're confident that they're in their ability that they can

208
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:12,959
Speaker 1: make that happen. And that's not what the Bengals are.

209
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,200
Speaker 1: Even though they have the firepower and the guys that

210
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,080
Speaker 1: go out and score from where were on the field,

211
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 1: they just they can't do it. For some reason, they

212
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,319
Speaker 1: don't have the general to push the ball down the field.

213
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 1: So with that being said, I think you know you're

214
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:25,440
Speaker 1: gonna lean a lot on Joe Mixing. Um, you're leaning

215
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:27,880
Speaker 1: a lot on on Tyler Boyd trying trying to get

216
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,240
Speaker 1: him in the slot. Uh, and Ross is gonna have

217
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:31,679
Speaker 1: to do something. You're gonna have to find a way

218
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 1: to get open running go routes, scheme them up, make plays, uh,

219
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,320
Speaker 1: because their defense really, you know, you guys are that

220
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:41,000
Speaker 1: that team is in shambles right now. Right now, the

221
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:42,679
Speaker 1: reports are saying that A. J. Green is gonna be

222
00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 1: out until December, and the Bengals play the Baltimore Ravens

223
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,600
Speaker 1: and the Cleveland Browns in their next two games. Both

224
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 1: of those teams or bottom five and quarterback grading allowed.

225
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:54,200
Speaker 1: We saw the Bengals just completely implode yesterday against the Sands.

226
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 1: You can't trust Dalton's gonna get dropped in a lot

227
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 1: of leagues and people started him streamed him because of

228
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 1: the matchup. I think we were against that move because

229
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 1: of A. J. Green's absence and finally moving on from

230
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,559
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton and the Bengals to another a f C

231
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 1: North team and Joe Flacco dealing with an injured hip.

232
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 1: Right now, if Lamar Jackson ends up being the quarterback

233
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,200
Speaker 1: and guys, I've been saying this for as long as

234
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 1: I've been doing fantasy football now says when a quarterback

235
00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 1: can run with the football, he has added value in

236
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,080
Speaker 1: fantasy leagues. Lamar Jackson, guys, should he be picked up

237
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 1: in all leagues? I think so. I think if Joe

238
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 1: Flacco is out, you have weapons around him, you have

239
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,079
Speaker 1: a running game that you can use your running game.

240
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:34,760
Speaker 1: I would go pick up some of those running backs.

241
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 1: I'd try to go trade for Alice Collins because anytime

242
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:40,199
Speaker 1: you have a running quarterback that what it does to

243
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,440
Speaker 1: a defensive creates an extra gap because now he could

244
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,560
Speaker 1: take the ball and spread out of You saw Rashad

245
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 1: Penny against the Rams. All everyone was looking at Russell

246
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,120
Speaker 1: Wilson running and Penny was able to, you know, get

247
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 1: some big games there. Um, it's gonna help the running game,

248
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:54,320
Speaker 1: O was gonna help their play action pass out and really,

249
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 1: you know, Lamar jackson speeding and athletic ability is second

250
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 1: to none in this league. So uh, you're thinking of

251
00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:03,320
Speaker 1: you know a guy that can run the like Mike

252
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:06,439
Speaker 1: Vick type. Right, Um, what what r G three did

253
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 1: his rookie year? Those type of things which you'll see.

254
00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:11,679
Speaker 1: I think with Lamar Jackson, Baltimore is gonna have to

255
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:13,840
Speaker 1: change your offense right now. They're the most past heavy

256
00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:16,680
Speaker 1: team when the scoreboards neutral, but passing at sixty six

257
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 1: percent of the time when the scores within eight points.

258
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 1: That's gonna have to change. With Lamar Jackson or Center,

259
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 1: They're gonna go a lot more run heavy. I'm with

260
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 1: you and Alex Conson and from your experience, like when

261
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,959
Speaker 1: when you had a running quarterback, what did what were

262
00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 1: you looking for? And how did that change what you

263
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 1: were viewing in terms of your blocking scheme, in terms

264
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 1: of the lanes that you were looking for. How did

265
00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:38,840
Speaker 1: that change things for you? For me? A lot of

266
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 1: times I had one quarterback that was was David Garrard,

267
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:43,719
Speaker 1: and he ran every now and then. I mean he

268
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 1: was like enough to do it more. But we just

269
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 1: didn't do it. Um you try to wind things back

270
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,679
Speaker 1: because as he does a play fake or in Lamar

271
00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:55,679
Speaker 1: Jackson the read option, you're leaving a defender unblocked. So

272
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 1: you just want to kind of get through the hole

273
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,559
Speaker 1: and get back outside. You'll be you'll be able to

274
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:01,440
Speaker 1: kind of hack the defense in different ways where your

275
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 1: tackle is not blocking the end man on the line

276
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 1: of scrimmage, or you may leave a linebacker. You may

277
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: be get creative in that way, but it opens up

278
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,839
Speaker 1: another It opens up extra lengths for the running back

279
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:11,720
Speaker 1: to see. So you're you know what I used to

280
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:13,199
Speaker 1: do in the league, and I think you know a

281
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 1: lot of people don't do it as much. I used

282
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 1: to always go back to the double team, right, so

283
00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:18,440
Speaker 1: we'd have single blocks on the front side, but we'd

284
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:19,959
Speaker 1: always find a way to get a double team on

285
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:21,800
Speaker 1: every run play. So I can get back to that,

286
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:25,319
Speaker 1: because if you have six hundred pounds worth of human

287
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 1: beings blocking a three hundred pounder, they're gonna move him

288
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 1: out of the way. You can find acrease. And so

289
00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 1: with a running game with a quarterback that can run,

290
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 1: imagine that and the linebacker running out with the quarterback.

291
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 1: Now there's no one there. You should be able to

292
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 1: hit the hole and go that's great. Yeah, And and

293
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,040
Speaker 1: I've said it, you know, a hundred times, like when

294
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 1: Tim Tebow was a quarterback in this league and playing

295
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 1: for the Broncos, he was Fantasy relevant, even Terrell Prior. Right,

296
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 1: this guy is so much more dynamic than any of

297
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,280
Speaker 1: those two quarterbacks that I just mentioned that. I'm not

298
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 1: saying he could be a league winner, because quarterback is

299
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 1: ridiculously deep right now. But this is a guy that

300
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:00,160
Speaker 1: can really help you. I mean, especially if you're in

301
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,439
Speaker 1: a two QB league or a super flex league. This

302
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 1: guy needs to be owned in all fantasy leagues. La

303
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 1: Mark Jackson will be a popular ad off the waiver wire.

329
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 1: of trust, Trade or toss, but we're gonna focus on

330
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 1: running backs. With three weeks left until the start of

331
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 1: the Fantasy playoffs, which hopefully you guys are well on

332
00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 1: your way to getting to Which of these running backs

333
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 1: who have been questionable all season long can you trust

334
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,040
Speaker 1: to get you to the promised Land. I'm gonna start

335
00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:02,600
Speaker 1: off with you, Mo, with Jordan Howard, who has got Minnesota,

336
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:06,120
Speaker 1: Detroit and the Giants up in his next three games,

337
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,720
Speaker 1: coming off an absolute stink bomb against the Detroit Lions.

338
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:12,120
Speaker 1: Do you trust him, which means you keep him in

339
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 1: your line up? Do you trade him which is sort

340
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,000
Speaker 1: of self explanatory, or do you toss him onto your

341
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 1: bench or the waiver wire. Yeah, I'm gonna trust Jordan Howard.

342
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 1: And I know it's hard to for people to say that,

343
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 1: but remember they after this in the playoffs, the first

344
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,640
Speaker 1: round the playoffs, guess who they get to play. Yeah,

345
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 1: they play the Ram like that the in the Rams,

346
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:32,800
Speaker 1: and it hurts me to say that the Rams give

347
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,080
Speaker 1: up more yardst anybody running the ball right now. I

348
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 1: mean Mike Davis and Rashod Penny both had days exactly.

349
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna try to keep him because I know

350
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 1: his matchups in the playoff we're gonna be better than

351
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 1: than what I've seen. And again, you you never know

352
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 1: when he gets cold, they have to start running the

353
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 1: ball a little bit more. And I know they didn't

354
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:51,080
Speaker 1: run the ball that well against the Detroit Lions, but

355
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 1: I think you'll be able to do it against some

356
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 1: of these other teams. Yeah, Howard is kind of just

357
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 1: hits what he is at this point. It's just low

358
00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 1: and rby two and you kind of have to hope

359
00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 1: if he's he scores it point. I mean, he's just

360
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 1: not seeing the passing uses. That's all tree Cone. At

361
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,560
Speaker 1: this point. He's playing fifty of teams nasts each and

362
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 1: every week. He just kind of is what he is

363
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,639
Speaker 1: at this point. It's kind of a low upside, but

364
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,119
Speaker 1: I mean decent floor me too, So you're kind of

365
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,639
Speaker 1: trusted him, but kind of not. Yeah, it's one of

366
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,840
Speaker 1: those things. I mean, these running backs that don't see targets,

367
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,199
Speaker 1: they're gonna have weeks like this where they just have

368
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:23,120
Speaker 1: you know, Levin Carress for twenty yards. If they don't

369
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 1: get into the box then you know. And the problem

370
00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 1: right now is that after this stinker, it's gonna be

371
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 1: hard to trade him. If you want to trade him,

372
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:32,040
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to sell someone else on his schedule.

373
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 1: Moving forward, let's go to Lashawn McCoy who finally had

374
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 1: a Leshawn McCoy day, and it took Matt Barkley to

375
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,440
Speaker 1: spark the Bill's offense. Graham, let me say that again.

376
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:47,919
Speaker 1: It took Matt Barkley to spark this offense. No, because

377
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,720
Speaker 1: I don't believe what I'm saying. I mean again it Na,

378
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:52,760
Speaker 1: the Batman is not a good quarterback, but Matt Barkley

379
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,119
Speaker 1: and he's I mean, the Jestic didn't show up, and

380
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:58,640
Speaker 1: they didn't, but this one, you know what, Fabs, I'm

381
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:00,440
Speaker 1: gonna trade this one. Yeah. I been, I've been to

382
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,000
Speaker 1: a Shaw McCoy fan for a long time. He just

383
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,639
Speaker 1: doesn't have enough around him. And if Matt Barkley is

384
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 1: a savior, then so be it, he could say, with

385
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:09,639
Speaker 1: the Shaw McCoy someone else's team. So if you're in

386
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,119
Speaker 1: any leagues I'm in, I'm trying to trade him. Come

387
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 1: high at the kid. Yeah, if you can get anything

388
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 1: out of McCoy right now, I trade him to sell high.

389
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:18,560
Speaker 1: You won't get a better opportunity in the In the

390
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,040
Speaker 1: three prior weeks, he had twenty four carriers for twenty

391
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,080
Speaker 1: four yards exactly. And so that they've got they've got

392
00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:25,920
Speaker 1: a buy coming up. Then They've got the Jacks and

393
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 1: then they're at Miami. Miami's defense is bad, but you

394
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 1: also have to remember that Josh Allen is going to

395
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,720
Speaker 1: come back and and they're trying to and develop him.

396
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,400
Speaker 1: This is so Shady is going to continue to see

397
00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 1: stack front, so I would be trying to trade Shady McCoy.

398
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:42,480
Speaker 1: Let's move on to Dion Lewis, who did not perform

399
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:45,160
Speaker 1: as we all expected against his former team. Revenge game

400
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 1: narrative did not work. He's got the Colts, the Jets,

401
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 1: and then the Jaguars. I'm gonna keep him. I'm gonna

402
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:54,679
Speaker 1: trust him. I think what they want to do, they

403
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:56,239
Speaker 1: want to run the ball, and I get it as

404
00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 1: getting cold. But guess what you got Indiana Dome. Okay,

405
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,159
Speaker 1: then you have the jet to home, then you go

406
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 1: to my Uh, you go to my you go to

407
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:06,960
Speaker 1: our Jacksonville at home, So you really I think he

408
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 1: can still play. They still try to design plays for him. UM,

409
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,440
Speaker 1: and the way Derry Henry's running, it's gonna be harder

410
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,200
Speaker 1: for teams to kind of fit that that uh quickness

411
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:18,159
Speaker 1: style that he has. I'm with m J D two Um.

412
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 1: Over the last month, he's played over team snaps and

413
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,600
Speaker 1: three or four games last week. And I know Derrick

414
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,640
Speaker 1: Henry got the two scores, but young Lewis actually had

415
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 1: six red zone carries a Derrick Henry's five. So just

416
00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:30,479
Speaker 1: a little bit of bad variance there. Yeah, I'm I'm

417
00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,480
Speaker 1: trusting Lewis moving forward to especially in PPR leagues. But yeah,

418
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry suddenly has become a thing. Oh he will.

419
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,240
Speaker 1: He's getting zone. Make sure you go get him because

420
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:39,920
Speaker 1: it's gonna be the thing here very soon. I've seen

421
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:41,720
Speaker 1: him dropped in some leagues too, so you may want

422
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 1: to check your waiver wire if you're in a non

423
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,480
Speaker 1: competitive league because he could be out there. Uh some

424
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,600
Speaker 1: frustration over fantasy owners not getting production from him, they

425
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:51,520
Speaker 1: could have put him on the wire. And this this

426
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:54,400
Speaker 1: one paints me because I've been telling people to trade

427
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:58,680
Speaker 1: this guy for weeks. Kenyan Drake okay, and the matchup

428
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,440
Speaker 1: was there, it was Air against Green Bay and then

429
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 1: guess what. Frank Gore continues to be the Miami running

430
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 1: backup choice by Adam Gae trust him, trade him or Tossome.

431
00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:15,479
Speaker 1: I'm gonna try to trade Keen Drake, but if I can,

432
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:17,840
Speaker 1: I'm an ass him I'm I'm I'm over it. I

433
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:20,560
Speaker 1: think you know, he's shown some explosives here and there,

434
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,359
Speaker 1: but there's no consistency. And in this league, especially in Fantasy,

435
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 1: it's about volume, volume, touches, volume, carries, volume, targets. Uh,

436
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,479
Speaker 1: he's not getting in any of those things. So I'm

437
00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:32,240
Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna go ahead, either put him on my

438
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:33,680
Speaker 1: bench or try to trade a one of the two.

439
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:36,239
Speaker 1: It's been beyond time to toss Kenyan Drake. He has

440
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:39,360
Speaker 1: I mean, has eight or fewer carries and what six

441
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 1: of ten games this year? Just I mean, there's just

442
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 1: not enough volume there. So, as a former player, m

443
00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 1: J d if if you've got a guy like Drake

444
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:49,639
Speaker 1: on your roster and the head coach is not getting

445
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:51,200
Speaker 1: him the football. This is a guy who was a

446
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:53,879
Speaker 1: league winner in the second half of fantasy leagues. He

447
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:56,640
Speaker 1: was ridiculous. He was average in twenty one touches a game.

448
00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 1: He was blowling. You bring in a guy who's thirty

449
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:01,879
Speaker 1: five years old, who, hey, Frank or Is It is

450
00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:06,280
Speaker 1: a great running back, But are you questioning what your

451
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 1: head coach is doing when he's giving the ball to

452
00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:11,960
Speaker 1: a less dynamic running back. Frank is better. Frank is

453
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:14,200
Speaker 1: a better running back. He's a more efficient running back,

454
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 1: and I think that's the key. Um. Sometimes we have

455
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 1: dynamic guys, you get a lot of losses and you've

456
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 1: seen that. Uh, I watched the firsthand with Tavon Austin

457
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,720
Speaker 1: trying to make plays happen. You know, it's just Frank

458
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 1: is a downhill runner. He's gonna get positive yards and

459
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,199
Speaker 1: he's gonna move the chains. And that's what they need

460
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:32,119
Speaker 1: to do for the Dolphins to win games and to

461
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:35,399
Speaker 1: get on track. Um Kenyan dracon than. Yeah, he can

462
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 1: score from anywhere on the you know, and he can

463
00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:39,879
Speaker 1: do so many good things. But also he has a

464
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,399
Speaker 1: problem holding onto the ball sometimes and he gets a

465
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 1: lot of negative runs as well, and those will set

466
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,560
Speaker 1: you behind the chains, and that's not good for their offense.

467
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,200
Speaker 1: So from one older runner and Frank or to another

468
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:52,840
Speaker 1: Adrian Peterson and you know, you know he talked about

469
00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:54,880
Speaker 1: this on the show. I said, don't play him this week.

470
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,520
Speaker 1: His offensive mine is a mess right now. The Buccaneers

471
00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,239
Speaker 1: are tougher at home than they're on the road. And Uh,

472
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,159
Speaker 1: Peterson gave you a stinker. He's got Houston coming up.

473
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,800
Speaker 1: Then he's at Dallas and then at Philadelphia. What do

474
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:10,400
Speaker 1: you do with him? I don't know. Their offensive line

475
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,359
Speaker 1: is what hurts me more than anything. It's not Adrian

476
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 1: Peterson because when he had blocking, he can make it happen.

477
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:16,840
Speaker 1: Right now, there's not much blocking, so they have to

478
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 1: figure it out. Um, it's tough, right because he's getting

479
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 1: the volume of touches. I'm not gonna I'm not gonna

480
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,159
Speaker 1: trade him, and I don't. I mean, I'm gonna trust him,

481
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna trust him in my flex if I

482
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,080
Speaker 1: have enough, if I have another RB two, I'll put

483
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:33,399
Speaker 1: him in my flex as RB three guy, because I

484
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:35,560
Speaker 1: know they're they're they're gonna get it right. And when

485
00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,480
Speaker 1: they get it right, I want to make sure he's

486
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:40,119
Speaker 1: on my roster because you need running backs come to

487
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 1: playoff time. The key to Peterson this year has been

488
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:47,399
Speaker 1: game script. I mean, in Washington six losses, or excuse me,

489
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:49,920
Speaker 1: in Washington's three losses, this year's average only six point

490
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,240
Speaker 1: fantasy points per game for per fantasy grew dot COM's

491
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,360
Speaker 1: Joe dolan um, and there's six ones. He's every seventeen

492
00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 1: point nine fantasy points per game. Obviously, yesterday I didn't

493
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:01,280
Speaker 1: get in the box, but still got you know what

494
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:06,160
Speaker 1: one touches. Um. If we can predict when Washington's gonna

495
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:09,960
Speaker 1: win the game, Peterson will will will smash. But the

496
00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,560
Speaker 1: problem right now is, you know, their offensive line has

497
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 1: fallen apart. They have a pretty tough schedule coming up

498
00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:17,720
Speaker 1: with Texans, Cowboys, and Eagles. All three of those games

499
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 1: should be competitive. It's gonna be kind of a tough stretcher.

500
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:22,440
Speaker 1: And his last couple of games, he's averaging right around

501
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:24,439
Speaker 1: three yards to carry, which isn't very good. The Texans

502
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,520
Speaker 1: are allowing ride around three and a half yards per

503
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:29,239
Speaker 1: carry a running back. So uh but again, I mean

504
00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 1: we're we're in the middle of the second by him aged.

505
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 1: This is going to be a difficult week for fantasy owners.

506
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:36,720
Speaker 1: So Peterson may have to be a plug and play.

507
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:38,480
Speaker 1: But you know, I agree with you, M j D

508
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 1: and Graham. The offensive line is a big time problem

509
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,639
Speaker 1: and Redskins have been a very hard team to predict

510
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,760
Speaker 1: this season. So Adrian Peterson, if I got if I

511
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,080
Speaker 1: got somebody out there who would take him off my hands,

512
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,359
Speaker 1: I'm gonna give it to him. I would I absolutely

513
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:54,679
Speaker 1: make that deal. Let's move on. To Dalvin Cook. Now

514
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 1: we know the Vikings had to buy this week, but

515
00:23:56,600 --> 00:24:01,680
Speaker 1: before the buy, my goodness, gracious, trust trust, trust, understand

516
00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 1: that he's coming back from a hamstring. They got him

517
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:08,200
Speaker 1: finally healthy. You've seen him being explosive. They're feeding him.

518
00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:11,880
Speaker 1: It makes sero he should even be on this list

519
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,879
Speaker 1: because in order for the Vikings. I mean, he's barely

520
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:18,720
Speaker 1: played this season, and he's been I mean, I love Dalvin,

521
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:20,879
Speaker 1: but he's been prone to injuries as an NFL player.

522
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,200
Speaker 1: But when you watched him in Week one against the Niners,

523
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,520
Speaker 1: how many touches did he have before he kind of

524
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:27,720
Speaker 1: got a little little niked up. And then you saw

525
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,760
Speaker 1: him against the Detroit Lions. I mean, he's starting to

526
00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 1: show that he's that guy. He has to stay healthy.

527
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna let anyone else get those points. If

528
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 1: I have him, I'm gonna keep him on my team

529
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 1: and make sure when he does go off, because he will.

530
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:41,879
Speaker 1: Because remember, the Vikings are throwing the ball of the

531
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,159
Speaker 1: yard too, so they're not loading the box up with

532
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:46,960
Speaker 1: Adam Dealing and Stefon digs out there. This guy is

533
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 1: gonna be running on unloaded boxes all day. It's a

534
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 1: tough one because I'm with you. I mean, he hasn't

535
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:54,040
Speaker 1: been able to stay healthy. But when he has been healthy,

536
00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:57,359
Speaker 1: he's been unquestioned RB one for fantasy, and he's averaging

537
00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:00,720
Speaker 1: a hundred hundred five yards some scrimmage over the last

538
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:02,800
Speaker 1: two years. When he's healthy, has been the RB tenant

539
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 1: PPR points of your game. I can't say I trust

540
00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:07,719
Speaker 1: him just because of the health issues, but I mean

541
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,360
Speaker 1: he's undoubtedly been fantastic. It's kind of one of those

542
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:13,680
Speaker 1: situations where if you can trade him for a borderline

543
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:17,560
Speaker 1: top twelve receiver. At this point, I'm moved him for

544
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:20,680
Speaker 1: Emmanuel Sanders in one league, but that's only lead because

545
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:24,080
Speaker 1: I'm very, very deep at running back. I've got Girly McCaffrey.

546
00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:27,600
Speaker 1: Would you try to trade for him? His playoff schedule

547
00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:32,119
Speaker 1: is really favorable. I was not on board. I mean,

548
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 1: like Gram's more of a toss than a trust. He

549
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:35,720
Speaker 1: wants to get him, he wants to get rid of him.

550
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:37,960
Speaker 1: I I just think that it would if you trade

551
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,880
Speaker 1: him away and he's healthy in the playoffs, he goes off,

552
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 1: you're gonna be sick. It's one of those things where

553
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,360
Speaker 1: it's a team by team situation. Obviously, if you don't

554
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:47,159
Speaker 1: have the running back depth like sure, like if you

555
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,239
Speaker 1: don't have the depth on your team or whatever, Um,

556
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:51,480
Speaker 1: obviously you'd have to hold on to him just because

557
00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:53,160
Speaker 1: the upside is so high. But if you feel pretty

558
00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 1: comfortable with your running backs and you need a receiver

559
00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:57,520
Speaker 1: to to make a run, I'm okay moving him. Uh.

560
00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:59,080
Speaker 1: Next running back is a guy that I had a

561
00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 1: lot of questions about on Twitter, and Leonard Fournette, and

562
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,399
Speaker 1: I told everyone, like, listen, trust them. I mean, dude,

563
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 1: he's healthy. I mean you drafted him in the first round.

564
00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:10,159
Speaker 1: I mean, if you got a sports car that's in

565
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:12,080
Speaker 1: the shop, you get it back from the mckinnic. You

566
00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 1: don't leave it in the garage. You run that sucker.

567
00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 1: So the thing is Dalvin Cook and Leonard for not

568
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:19,120
Speaker 1: have the same person and what we're talking about. Both

569
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,560
Speaker 1: guys injuries, a little nicked up, but you see when

570
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:24,680
Speaker 1: they get in what they're doing. They're giving them the ball.

571
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 1: Like when I've since the very beginning when I started Fantasy,

572
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:30,680
Speaker 1: I figured volume was the way to go. I didn't

573
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,040
Speaker 1: I didn't know much about it, but I always targeted

574
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:34,560
Speaker 1: guys who are gonna get the ball a ton because

575
00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:36,359
Speaker 1: obviously the more opportunities to get, the better chance you

576
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:39,159
Speaker 1: to score more points you get. Leonard Fournette is going

577
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,480
Speaker 1: to get the ball in the red zone whenever they

578
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,520
Speaker 1: can give him the ball, period. That's a guarantee. They're

579
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:46,000
Speaker 1: gonna try to run the ball in as much as

580
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 1: they can. With that being said, you have to play

581
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,320
Speaker 1: Leonard Fournette as much as possible. Forget the schedule. I

582
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,400
Speaker 1: care less about the schedule. They're gonna play d mg

583
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 1: d's point. I mean, over his last eight healthy games

584
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:58,560
Speaker 1: that includes the playoffs, for Nette has twenty five touches

585
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:00,720
Speaker 1: per game. That girl who leads all running backs this

586
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:03,240
Speaker 1: year with I am all in on him, all in

587
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:05,800
Speaker 1: I as long as he stays healthy and we get those,

588
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:08,560
Speaker 1: that's tons of touches. Like that's the caveat you're gonna

589
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:10,800
Speaker 1: start seeing Carlos I get dropped. He barely played in

590
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:12,720
Speaker 1: the game. You know. T J yeld and I still

591
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:16,440
Speaker 1: think is a rosterbull player in PPR leagues. But he's

592
00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:18,359
Speaker 1: he's a handcuff for me more than anything else. But

593
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:20,119
Speaker 1: for when it as a guy you drafted in the

594
00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 1: first round, maybe the second round, depending on the size

595
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 1: of your league. But he's got all the talent in

596
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 1: the world, and this guy was tremendous last season as

597
00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:30,280
Speaker 1: a rookie, and he showed yesterday why he should be

598
00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:32,399
Speaker 1: in your lineup. There should be no questions about it.

599
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 1: He should be in your starting lineup and you should

600
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,600
Speaker 1: leave him there as long as he's healthy, no doubt

601
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,119
Speaker 1: about it. With Leonard Fournette, Let's move on to mark Ingram,

602
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:42,440
Speaker 1: who he finally had a mark Ingram game right that

603
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 1: first game that he came back. He played really well,

604
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:47,119
Speaker 1: but they kind of phased Alvin Camara out of the

605
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 1: offense that week. They wanted to give him a blow

606
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:52,200
Speaker 1: because he had played at a featured level for for

607
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:55,719
Speaker 1: four weeks and the last couple of weeks mark Ingram's

608
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 1: numbers haven't been great. We saw him put up a

609
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:02,119
Speaker 1: great stat line yes today against a bad Bengals defense.

610
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,880
Speaker 1: So is now the time to sell high on him?

611
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 1: You trust him? I know you're not tossing him. Oh yeah,

612
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:09,840
Speaker 1: I'm trusting mark Ingram. I play him every week in

613
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,080
Speaker 1: one of my league just because it's the fact that

614
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:14,879
Speaker 1: they are a two back system and both backs get

615
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,159
Speaker 1: equal opportunity It's not like they're gonna lean towards one

616
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,160
Speaker 1: and lean towards the other. Got a chance to watch

617
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:21,800
Speaker 1: them live in New Orleans. Marky Ingram played just as

618
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 1: much as Alvin Kamara. Now they use Alvin a little

619
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 1: bit more in the passing game, which is why he

620
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,440
Speaker 1: has more opportunities to score touchdowns and did different things

621
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 1: like that. But mark Ingram's is the backbone to this offense.

622
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:33,360
Speaker 1: They run the ball downhill with him and they says

623
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:35,119
Speaker 1: that the play actually passed and when he can get

624
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 1: the ends on it, getting the group like he did

625
00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 1: this past weekend. Hey, they they're gonna be there, tough

626
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:41,400
Speaker 1: to out there. They're scoring forty plus points every time

627
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 1: they played, just so every look. Look the Saints are

628
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 1: scoring points on sixty of their drives and saying that's

629
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 1: the highest rate in NFL history. Yeah, you want pieces

630
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:54,320
Speaker 1: of the Saints offense pretty much. Yeah, no question about that. Um.

631
00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:59,240
Speaker 1: Tevin Coleman, who boy, I mean, that was a stanker yesterday.

632
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:01,280
Speaker 1: The good news is that he got opportunities in the

633
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:03,640
Speaker 1: red zone. He got stopped I think four times inside

634
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:07,200
Speaker 1: the five. But um, not a great performance from a

635
00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:10,800
Speaker 1: fantasy perspective, probably cross the owners a win this week.

636
00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 1: Do you trust him? Do you trade him? Or you

637
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:16,000
Speaker 1: toss him? Uh? Listen, they struggle on the road, and

638
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:18,040
Speaker 1: so a good thing that they're playing domes the next

639
00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:21,320
Speaker 1: three games. Keep them and let him go. It wasn't

640
00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 1: just him, but did he? I mean, Julio Jones had

641
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:26,760
Speaker 1: a good game, but everyone struggled in that game. Austin

642
00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:28,960
Speaker 1: Hooper had a good game as well, But it would

643
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:32,160
Speaker 1: just seemed like they just weren't that high flying offense

644
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:33,720
Speaker 1: that we're used to sing, the one that can score

645
00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:36,560
Speaker 1: whenever they want to. Calvin Ridley was struggling a little bit.

646
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:39,640
Speaker 1: He just wasn't. They just weren't together for some reason. Um.

647
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 1: With with that being said, I'm going to make sure

648
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:43,960
Speaker 1: that I get a piece of this often, just like

649
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 1: the Saints offense, because guess what, they'll be in the

650
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:49,000
Speaker 1: Dome and they'll be playing Dome teams and it's tough

651
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 1: when you have this this offense can score a will. Yeah,

652
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:54,520
Speaker 1: you just gotta keep rolling with him and DeVonta Freeman's out.

653
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:56,120
Speaker 1: We know Edo Smith is gonna get his you know

654
00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:57,960
Speaker 1: a little bit of touches every game. But yeah, Coleman

655
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 1: still their featured running back in this offense, and you

656
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:02,360
Speaker 1: just kinda have to live and die with the bad days.

657
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:04,080
Speaker 1: And credit goes to the Browns defense. They did a

658
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:07,640
Speaker 1: fantastic job slowing down the Falcons high flying attack. They

659
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:09,600
Speaker 1: pressured Matt Ryan, did a bunch of great things in

660
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,560
Speaker 1: terms of disguising their coverage schemes. So kind of just

661
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 1: have to live with the game. And Coleman still played

662
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,840
Speaker 1: sixty seven of the snap setel Smith only thirty, So

663
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:22,840
Speaker 1: I'm rolling with with Tevin Coleman. This one's interesting. Sony Michelle,

664
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 1: when he was active early in the season, was one

665
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:28,320
Speaker 1: of the better running backs and fantasy football. He was

666
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:30,760
Speaker 1: giving you double digit points every single week. He was

667
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:34,960
Speaker 1: getting enough touches to produce what we saw yesterday, And

668
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 1: I get it. The the entire Patriots team basically imploded offensively.

669
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 1: The only guy who had a good game was Julian Edeman,

670
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 1: and he got banged up. But do you trust Sony

671
00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:47,200
Speaker 1: Michelle for the stretch run? He's got to buy this week.

672
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:52,680
Speaker 1: Then he's got the Jets and the Vikings New England.

673
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 1: Every year does this right? They find a running back

674
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:59,200
Speaker 1: somewhere somehow at the end of the year vis James White,

675
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,960
Speaker 1: Um Rex Burkhead, whoever may be, and they try to

676
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 1: run him Cordial Cordarol Patterson's the guy that's been of late.

677
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:09,360
Speaker 1: But I think Sony Michelle for me is a sneaky play.

678
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 1: Now you can trade him and get probably if you

679
00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 1: could probably talk to went into trading for him. For me,

680
00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:16,120
Speaker 1: I have him in the league and I literally have

681
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:18,400
Speaker 1: him sitting on my bench. I want to say, have Ingram,

682
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 1: I have uh who else? Uh? Oh? Quin, I have

683
00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:26,160
Speaker 1: some I have some guys. So he's sitting on my

684
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,600
Speaker 1: bench and be in my flex play because come when

685
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:30,480
Speaker 1: it when it starts to get cold in New England

686
00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:32,800
Speaker 1: and said Chili, they're gonna run this young man so

687
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,760
Speaker 1: much that that his volume will come back. I think

688
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:37,280
Speaker 1: they just wanted to ease him back in and not

689
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:41,000
Speaker 1: rushing back off that knee injury. So um, and the

690
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:42,400
Speaker 1: game kind of got out of hand a little bit

691
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 1: as well. I think he's gonna be a viable play

692
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:47,760
Speaker 1: for anyone who has him in the playoffs. Yeah, that

693
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:49,280
Speaker 1: was my thing, is the game got out of hand

694
00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:51,280
Speaker 1: really quickly. We saw the Patriots kind of fail on

695
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:53,880
Speaker 1: offense yesterday for the first well second time this year,

696
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 1: Matt Patricia slowed down the page. Yeah, and that the

697
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:02,320
Speaker 1: two former page Riots are coaches of the two teams

698
00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 1: that made the Patriots look bad, Right, That's what I

699
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:06,920
Speaker 1: was Yeah, that's what I was saying. Evan Silver tweeted

700
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:08,840
Speaker 1: that out earlier and it was a great point. Yeah's

701
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:10,600
Speaker 1: it is a great point. I mean, Michelle played only

702
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:13,440
Speaker 1: tent of team snaps because the Patriots got behind quickly

703
00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 1: and they had to you know, play in their passing

704
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,920
Speaker 1: offense excuse me, playing their hurry up pass offense with

705
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:21,080
Speaker 1: James Whitett. So yeah, I think I think you could

706
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:23,520
Speaker 1: trade for him, just because we know the Patriots are

707
00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 1: going to be in better scripts. I mean the Jets.

708
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,120
Speaker 1: They're going to smash the Jets once they come out

709
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:28,720
Speaker 1: of their I know that games on the road, but

710
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:30,680
Speaker 1: they're gonna says the Jets, and you would think Vikings

711
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,200
Speaker 1: Patriots will be competitive. Sony Michelle iss a guy that

712
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:35,880
Speaker 1: you would trade for right now, no question about it. Now,

713
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:37,959
Speaker 1: I'm a d percent on board with you. I mean

714
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:40,920
Speaker 1: that game is a throwaway game for me. If I've

715
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 1: got James Wide and I've got Sonny Michelle, Tom Brady

716
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:46,400
Speaker 1: it's a throwaway game and at some point, hopefully the

717
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,760
Speaker 1: Patriots offense becomes whole again in Rob Gronkowski can come back,

718
00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 1: and we're expecting him to come back after the bye week.

719
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:56,920
Speaker 1: So um, hey, I think I think Sony Michelle. I'm

720
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:58,680
Speaker 1: not saying he's going to be a league winner, but

721
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:02,360
Speaker 1: if you can acquire him now, I really think, because

722
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,360
Speaker 1: some people may look at that stat line and think

723
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:08,240
Speaker 1: he's coming off the knee, it's James White's backfield, I

724
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:11,440
Speaker 1: think you can potentially get a pretty good deal for

725
00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:14,360
Speaker 1: Sony Michelle and he can potentially help you get to

726
00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:17,200
Speaker 1: your fantasy playoffs, no doubt about that. The twenty nineteen

730
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:30,800
Speaker 1: Graham does a tremendous job every single week on Sunday

731
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:34,920
Speaker 1: nights of producing his weekly waiver wire targets, and I

732
00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:38,280
Speaker 1: add in a few players here or there. So, Grahm,

733
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,000
Speaker 1: why don't you give us some of your highly targeted

734
00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:44,720
Speaker 1: players for Week eleven? Super interesting week on the wave

735
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 1: of Wire. I mean, last week was pretty clear cut

736
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:48,840
Speaker 1: with some top end guys. This week is a lot

737
00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:51,120
Speaker 1: more kind of open depending on your team. But I

738
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:54,360
Speaker 1: thought Rashad Penny looked fantastic, Yester Jimmy he we finally

739
00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:57,600
Speaker 1: saw the second gear of the explosiveness out of him,

740
00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:00,520
Speaker 1: out carried and out gained Mike Davis on the ground.

741
00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:03,120
Speaker 1: Can I can I take my concern real quick with him? Sure? Absolutely,

742
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:05,800
Speaker 1: Chris Carson's cup will be back. Yeah, that's and they

743
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 1: have three backs. I don't know how they're gonna because

744
00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:10,759
Speaker 1: when they had the three backs, Penny didn't even play right. Yeah. Yeah,

745
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:13,839
Speaker 1: he was basically just a special team. But you know again,

746
00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:16,480
Speaker 1: running back injuries are always kind of one of those things,

747
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 1: especially hip Hamstrang. Sure you know um more than anybody,

748
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 1: one of those things that can always linger. And this

749
00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:25,960
Speaker 1: the Seahawks offense is incredibly high volume that this exactly.

750
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 1: In fact, Seattle leads the NFL and rush attempts per game.

751
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:31,480
Speaker 1: So as long as Carson is out, I think Penny

752
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,920
Speaker 1: and Davis are both fine pickups. And kind of I'm

753
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:37,319
Speaker 1: not flex radar a little bit. Give me some more bud, yeah,

754
00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:40,919
Speaker 1: keeping it moving. I kind of like Marcus Mariotta moving, dude.

755
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,839
Speaker 1: I mean this is two games points and he's got

756
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:46,880
Speaker 1: the Colts this week. We're exactly we're finally seeing Mariota

757
00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:49,120
Speaker 1: in this Titans offense take flight here. He's finished the

758
00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:52,360
Speaker 1: top eight weekly quarterback and back to back games again

759
00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:54,879
Speaker 1: gets the Colts defense that was just destroyed by Blake

760
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:59,280
Speaker 1: Portals for yards and two scores. Mariot is actually averaging

761
00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:01,319
Speaker 1: a career high twenty eight and a half rushing yards

762
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:03,759
Speaker 1: per game two. So we're finally getting a little bit

763
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:06,680
Speaker 1: of upside with Mario to moving down the line just

764
00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:09,040
Speaker 1: a little bit more to really like John Ross. I

765
00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:13,440
Speaker 1: know the Bengals, I mean they basically, yeah, they employed,

766
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:17,360
Speaker 1: but Ross led the team in targets turned into you know,

767
00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:21,879
Speaker 1: usable to thirty nine and one line um in two

768
00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:25,840
Speaker 1: thousand and sixteen in Washington, John Ross led all FBF

769
00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:29,359
Speaker 1: FBS receivers and red zone touchdowns, and his red zone

770
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:31,680
Speaker 1: his touchdown yesterday came in the red zone. So we're

771
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:33,719
Speaker 1: finally going to get to see, you know, at least

772
00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:35,520
Speaker 1: John Ross get the opportunity as long as A. J.

773
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:38,000
Speaker 1: Green's out the line up. So I've added a few

774
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:40,320
Speaker 1: names here too, Um and I want to discuss some

775
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:42,480
Speaker 1: of them. We already talked about Lamar Jackson, we already

776
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,319
Speaker 1: talked about Josh Reynolds. THEO Riddick is basically playing wide

777
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:47,960
Speaker 1: receiver for the Lions. He didn't get any carries yesterday.

778
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:50,000
Speaker 1: And so if you're in a PPR league, I mean,

779
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:54,640
Speaker 1: this is a guy that what's going on, This is

780
00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 1: what this is what I decade, right. I get we

781
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:58,919
Speaker 1: won't tell. We won't tell Marcus Greene. I get pushed

782
00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:01,279
Speaker 1: back on that, but yeah, I mean that's the only

783
00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:04,719
Speaker 1: way to go. Um. So Riddick is potentially out there.

784
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:06,600
Speaker 1: I mean, like Frank Gore still out there in some

785
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:08,719
Speaker 1: leaks too, and you know they do a bye week

786
00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:12,120
Speaker 1: coming up. I get it, but he hasn't looked bad

787
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:17,600
Speaker 1: and and people are hesitant to Adam because you've got

788
00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:20,880
Speaker 1: Drake there. But as they say in Seinfeld, you know

789
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,759
Speaker 1: we're right now, we hate the Drake. He is not

790
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:27,319
Speaker 1: getting enough touches. And if you have the roster space

791
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:28,800
Speaker 1: you need a running back and you can wait a

792
00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:31,240
Speaker 1: week because they have a bye, then Frank Gorer should

793
00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:34,279
Speaker 1: be on your radar. I think, Graham, you also had

794
00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:37,600
Speaker 1: Kiki Qt and Jeff Hireman on your roster list as well.

795
00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:40,279
Speaker 1: For players to pick up off the waiver wire. What

796
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:43,239
Speaker 1: do you guys think of Josh Adamshia. That is a

797
00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:46,719
Speaker 1: great pickup because those other two guys aren't running, They're

798
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:49,600
Speaker 1: not doing what they need to do. Josh Adams gonna

799
00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:51,719
Speaker 1: end up being the guy, especially because he's a bigger back.

800
00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:54,880
Speaker 1: They're playing outside, they want to run the ball. He

801
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 1: breaks tackles, he running downhill. He'll get more opportunities as

802
00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,400
Speaker 1: they as they get going just because of what he

803
00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:04,480
Speaker 1: did in college. Leads the Eagles backfield and yards after

804
00:37:04,680 --> 00:37:07,000
Speaker 1: contact for attempt. He has that same kind of downhill

805
00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:09,640
Speaker 1: running style that Jgi and l Garrett Blunt both had.

806
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:11,920
Speaker 1: Eagles just haven't been able to run the ball with

807
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:14,640
Speaker 1: any consistency. The thing with the Eagles last year that

808
00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:17,800
Speaker 1: they did so well as they ran basically the same concepts,

809
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:20,279
Speaker 1: but they window dressed them so well. We haven't seen

810
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:22,080
Speaker 1: that with the Eagles this year. We haven't seen the

811
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:25,600
Speaker 1: dynamic rushing attack that we saw previously last year that

812
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:28,279
Speaker 1: that led Carson Wentz and Nick Foles to succeed so

813
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:32,319
Speaker 1: much out of play action. Um, you know I want

814
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:34,360
Speaker 1: to be in on Adams just because he's been fantastic

815
00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:38,320
Speaker 1: in this limited, small sample, but Doug Peterson continues to

816
00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 1: rotate these guys. It's just I still think Adams is

817
00:37:42,080 --> 00:37:44,040
Speaker 1: the Eagles running back to own well yeah, well he is,

818
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:47,280
Speaker 1: and everyone owns Clement and small Wooden and they should

819
00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:50,400
Speaker 1: be dumped. It's just it's just predicting these Eagles weekend

820
00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:52,160
Speaker 1: and week out right now has been different. It is

821
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:55,799
Speaker 1: this is the issue that the the the Eagles felt

822
00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:59,400
Speaker 1: like Jgi and like Garrett Blunt were just guys and

823
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:01,879
Speaker 1: they weren't real good backs. And so now you're seeing

824
00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,319
Speaker 1: what happens when you don't have guys who can run

825
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:05,799
Speaker 1: the ball and who are you know, the reason they

826
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:10,279
Speaker 1: were drafted or reason they they've been successful. You're gonna

827
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:12,200
Speaker 1: have to lean on your big back because other two

828
00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 1: guys are scatbacks, are guys that you put them out

829
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:16,680
Speaker 1: on the field, let them run, make guys miss. You

830
00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:19,560
Speaker 1: need someone to run downhill. Jedgi broke tackles like Garret

831
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,480
Speaker 1: Blunt brook tackles. Uh, Josh Adams the guy that breaks

832
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:24,520
Speaker 1: tackles right now? What do you guys think of Anthony

833
00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:27,840
Speaker 1: Miller in Chicago? I mean Taylor Gabriel's basically been phased

834
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:30,960
Speaker 1: out of the offense. Alan Robinson had a huge game yesterday,

835
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,120
Speaker 1: helped that Darius Lay was inactive. You like Miller moving forward.

836
00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:35,640
Speaker 1: I was thinking about this last night too. I was

837
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:37,319
Speaker 1: gonna put them on the list, but then I started

838
00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 1: looking at Chicago's targets now that Alan Robinson's back. I mean,

839
00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:42,759
Speaker 1: they basically just spread the ball around between four guys,

840
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:45,040
Speaker 1: right like they got a rob at the top trek.

841
00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 1: Cohen's always going to get a few passing looks off

842
00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:48,920
Speaker 1: the screens and the design stuff that they do for him.

843
00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:51,719
Speaker 1: Train Burton gets a ton of design looks. Gabriel's the

844
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:54,319
Speaker 1: shot put at the shop play guy. Miller is kind

845
00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:55,919
Speaker 1: of a little bit of everything, A Robs a little

846
00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:58,560
Speaker 1: bit of everything. So they have like five players where

847
00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:00,840
Speaker 1: they're gonna evenly distribute these targets, and it's kind of

848
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:03,320
Speaker 1: just gonna depend on the whim of the matchup on

849
00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:06,359
Speaker 1: who to play. You know, for me, there's too many

850
00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:08,600
Speaker 1: mouths to feed in this offense. Um, the guys that

851
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:12,120
Speaker 1: I want to get Cohen, Howard and Burton, those guys

852
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:13,480
Speaker 1: are the ones that you can lean on. I have

853
00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:15,839
Speaker 1: Allen Robinson didn't play him last week because I didn't

854
00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:18,120
Speaker 1: know how it was gonna go. Obviously, I I you know,

855
00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:20,080
Speaker 1: went wrong. But I guarantee if I put him a

856
00:39:20,120 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 1: line on this week, he doesn't do what he did right,

857
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:25,000
Speaker 1: because it just depends on the match this week exactly.

858
00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:26,719
Speaker 1: So it just depends on the matchup. So for me,

859
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:29,720
Speaker 1: Um Burden is the guy that's always open and always

860
00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:32,480
Speaker 1: they find a way to get him targets consistently. I

861
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:38,160
Speaker 1: also added Jalen Samuel's on here now expecting Bell to

862
00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:41,399
Speaker 1: not report, which means Samuel looks like the number two

863
00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:44,600
Speaker 1: back in Pittsburgh. At least we saw him play more

864
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 1: than Stephen Ridley in the previous week when Connor suffered

865
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:50,480
Speaker 1: the mouth concussion. He's supposed to be back, should be

866
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:54,040
Speaker 1: fine for week eleven. But you mentioned it earlier. You

867
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:56,920
Speaker 1: want to handcuff your big time backs. Is Jalen Samuel

868
00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:58,160
Speaker 1: is someone that you want to go out and pick

869
00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:00,440
Speaker 1: up off the waiver wire. If James There's on your

870
00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:03,200
Speaker 1: team and you've been holding Levy on Belds long, Uh,

871
00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:07,040
Speaker 1: probably not. You're not in Um, just because I haven't

872
00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:10,640
Speaker 1: seen enough the sparkle and Grahams actually a pretty smart,

873
00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:13,040
Speaker 1: sneaky stash deep leaves. If you're playing like a ten

874
00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:14,960
Speaker 1: team league, there's no reason to pick up Jalen Sammons.

875
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:16,960
Speaker 1: But if you're in like a deep fourteen team league

876
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:18,839
Speaker 1: and there's just no one else on the waiver wire,

877
00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:21,520
Speaker 1: I'm sure are both in a couple of weeks. Yes, yeah,

878
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:24,640
Speaker 1: I think it's actually worth it looks pretty good. It's

879
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:27,520
Speaker 1: at this time of the year where when I've got

880
00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:30,359
Speaker 1: like the big like if I got one seen, you're

881
00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:33,080
Speaker 1: going to play him though, like when when gets hurts

882
00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:35,520
Speaker 1: the stretch, just insurance, Like I'm gonna do the same

883
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:37,560
Speaker 1: thing I have Ezekiel Elliott in a couple of leagues.

884
00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:40,000
Speaker 1: If I've got a dead roster spot, I'm gonna pick

885
00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:42,480
Speaker 1: up rod Smith just in case, because I don't want

886
00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:45,560
Speaker 1: to lose that guy and not have the immediate backup.

887
00:40:45,880 --> 00:40:49,040
Speaker 1: Because Rod Smith is showing some flashes, Samuel's looked pretty

888
00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:51,480
Speaker 1: good last week, and god forbid any of these guys

889
00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 1: get hurt and you don't have their backup. Right now,

890
00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:57,439
Speaker 1: we're getting into week eleven, nitty gritty fantasy playoffs are coming.

891
00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:00,399
Speaker 1: I think again, if you have a dead spot near roster,

892
00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:03,600
Speaker 1: I'm not question for him. I think it makes a

893
00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:05,960
Speaker 1: lot of sense to do that, a lot of sense.

894
00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:09,120
Speaker 1: So if you have James Conner, depending on what happens

895
00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:10,920
Speaker 1: just today with Levian Bell, we don't expect him to

896
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:13,480
Speaker 1: show up, which means he's done for the season. Jalen

897
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:15,759
Speaker 1: Samuel's is clearly a guy that you can pick up

898
00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:19,360
Speaker 1: and handcuff. Uh. And so you have the Steelers backfield

899
00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:22,160
Speaker 1: basically for all intensive purposes for the rest of the season.

900
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:26,120
Speaker 1: Help people affected by the California wildfires by visiting red

901
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:29,640
Speaker 1: Cross dot org or text c A Wildfires to nine

902
00:41:29,800 --> 00:41:33,359
Speaker 1: zero nine nine to give ten dollars to American Red

903
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:37,400
Speaker 1: Cross California Wildfires Relief. And uh hey, I've I've got

904
00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:39,880

907
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:50,600
Speaker 1: and prayers goes to everyone out there who's been affected

908
00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:53,960
Speaker 1: by it. Because we live here in southern California, Luckily

909
00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:58,080
Speaker 1: we haven't been affected by it as so many people have.

910
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:01,040
Speaker 1: A Couple of days ago, the winds blew the wrong

911
00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:03,480
Speaker 1: way and play a vista was just full of smoke.

912
00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:07,080
Speaker 1: Um so the air quality has been has been pretty

913
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:10,640
Speaker 1: bad at times, but um, please go to red Cross

914
00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:13,440
Speaker 1: dot org uh and and donate if you can because

915
00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:16,200
Speaker 1: it is for a worthy cause, no question about that.

916
00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:19,320
Speaker 1: So now I want to go into our big finale

917
00:42:19,480 --> 00:42:21,920
Speaker 1: is what I'm calling it. Uh, this is your biggest

918
00:42:22,040 --> 00:42:26,560
Speaker 1: Week ten takeaway, and my biggest Week ten takeaway is

919
00:42:26,600 --> 00:42:30,399
Speaker 1: that Mike McCarthy finally got it okay, And I feel

920
00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:33,000
Speaker 1: like we've been trying to talk this into existence that

921
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:35,759
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones needs to be the featured back in Green Bay.

922
00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:40,280
Speaker 1: He finally got featured back treatment eighteen touches, Jamal Williams

923
00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:43,919
Speaker 1: only three sent the snaps Jamal Williams only twenty six.

924
00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:48,080
Speaker 1: Now moving forward, Hey, listen, game script was great, the

925
00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:51,279
Speaker 1: Dolphins defense was bad, But I really think Jones, who's

926
00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:54,399
Speaker 1: averaging over six yards to carry has I'm not saying

927
00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:56,720
Speaker 1: he's a must start, okay, because I think Ezekiel Elliott's

928
00:42:56,719 --> 00:43:00,040
Speaker 1: a must starting, but he's pretty dark close right. I

929
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:02,600
Speaker 1: think he's a must start because he catches the ball

930
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:05,719
Speaker 1: on the backfield, he's a viable weapon, and he really

931
00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:07,799
Speaker 1: right now is their number two receiver. Their number two

932
00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:11,040
Speaker 1: go to guy is Davonte Adams and then Aaron Jones.

933
00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:15,480
Speaker 1: So my only thing is is he should have been

934
00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:17,319
Speaker 1: playing like this from the time he got back from

935
00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:19,960
Speaker 1: that suspension. He did it last year going into the playoffs,

936
00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:21,800
Speaker 1: are going into their the end of the season with

937
00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:25,200
Speaker 1: um Brett Huntley, who was a quarterback. You should have

938
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:27,200
Speaker 1: tried to give him that opportunity. Obviously they didn't, So

939
00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:29,719
Speaker 1: uh yeah, I'm with you on that one. I don't

940
00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:31,600
Speaker 1: know if he finally gets it because I assume next

941
00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:36,279
Speaker 1: week he's gonna try to outthink us, don't Graham. What's

942
00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:40,279
Speaker 1: your big Week ten takeaway? I think David Johnson's finally back.

943
00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:43,360
Speaker 1: I think it's he's finally back. In weeks one through seven,

944
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:47,279
Speaker 1: under former offensive coordinator Mike McCoy, nearly sixty percent of

945
00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:49,640
Speaker 1: DJs carries went in between the tackles, and that's just

946
00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:51,640
Speaker 1: simply not the type of the running back that he is.

947
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:53,440
Speaker 1: He needs to be out in space and moving off

948
00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:56,759
Speaker 1: off tackle, running outside zone, and that's exactly what the

949
00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:59,120
Speaker 1: Cardinals are now doing. Over the last two weeks with

950
00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:03,680
Speaker 1: Byron left which calling the plays of DJs carriers have

951
00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:06,239
Speaker 1: gone in between the tackles. That's a significant dip Bruce

952
00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:09,239
Speaker 1: arians only used DJ in between the tackles ont of

953
00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:11,719
Speaker 1: his carries in two thousand and sixteen when DJ said,

954
00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:14,359
Speaker 1: you know, had just an enormous fantasy season. So finally

955
00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:16,520
Speaker 1: we're gonna we're seeing a little bit of creative play calling,

956
00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:18,400
Speaker 1: both in the passing game and in the running game.

957
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:20,759
Speaker 1: We're not seeing DJ just slamming the back of you know,

958
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:23,319
Speaker 1: his his interior offensive lineman. It's been great to see.

959
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:26,520
Speaker 1: I think DJ is finally back not near his two

960
00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:29,479
Speaker 1: thousand and sixteen level as a like shoe in every

961
00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:32,719
Speaker 1: single week RB one, regardless of the matchup, perfect timing too,

962
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:36,000
Speaker 1: and the schedule in the fantasy place David Johnson, it

963
00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:40,120
Speaker 1: is the kids would say, lit lit fiery emoji. Can

964
00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:42,880
Speaker 1: I give you mine? Absolutely? Man, I can't wait, all right?

965
00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:47,480
Speaker 1: Mine is who I know. The food is spicy down

966
00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:49,680
Speaker 1: there in New Orleans, but not as spices this offense

967
00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:53,160
Speaker 1: and they are trying to put points on everyone. There's

968
00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:54,800
Speaker 1: no reason for you to score fifty one points in

969
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:56,640
Speaker 1: the game in the NFL, but they did it just

970
00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:58,200
Speaker 1: to do it, and they want to show people that

971
00:44:58,239 --> 00:45:00,440
Speaker 1: they're the best offense and end else. So if you

972
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:02,360
Speaker 1: have a piece of this, or you can get a

973
00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:04,680
Speaker 1: piece of this. Try to find ways it was a trait.

974
00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:07,359
Speaker 1: Kwon Smith is a guy Mark like, try to find

975
00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:10,160
Speaker 1: ways to get pieces in this offense. Benjamin Watson, find

976
00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:12,200
Speaker 1: ways to get a little bit of it because everyone

977
00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:16,040
Speaker 1: is finding ways to score. Right now, Brandon Marshall, Baby,

978
00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:20,040
Speaker 1: maybe they listen. Maybe Brandon Marshall is there if you

979
00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:21,839
Speaker 1: can go and grab him. No one, let me let

980
00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:25,560
Speaker 1: me try to do that right now. All right, hey,

981
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:28,200
Speaker 1: so that's gonna do it for this edition of NFL

982
