Speaker 1: the stinkers. Last night we had Fantasy Gold, a heck

16
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,720
Speaker 1: of a Monday night or so, let's get straight to

17
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:22,120
Speaker 1: the highlights. Andrew luck Nick folds the two quarterbacks that

18
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,959
Speaker 1: would do battle the Bearded ones, and we go midway

19
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 1: through the first Now colts down three nothing a mod

20
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:33,679
Speaker 1: Brandshaw breaks free for nine yards and his night was

21
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,240
Speaker 1: just getting started. Same drive, Colts fourth and one and

22
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 1: they go from it. They go forward actually one, Yeah,

23
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 1: I've got hands paid off. I'm sorry, I've got hands

24
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,080
Speaker 1: like that. May don't ten sacks Colts late in the

25
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 1: second quarter, second end goal, Andrew Luck rolls. Hey, it's

26
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 1: another touchdown for Andrew Luck and the first floor. Here

27
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 1: we go. Shady McCoy backed an eagle of thing, punches

28
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 1: it in from a yard out, twenty to thirteen. Now

29
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 1: Colts on top. Eagles attacking again following the Colts turn over,

30
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 1: this time just truck and on his way into the

31
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:12,400
Speaker 1: ends on it would tie it up at ps tie game.

32
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:14,959
Speaker 1: Three minutes into the fourth quarter, Colts inside the Danny

33
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 1: Andrew I finds a wide open um on Bradshaw again.

34
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 1: Can't stop me, Coach, can't stop me. Coach. Bradshaw would

35
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,079
Speaker 1: end the night with over twenty one Fantasy points. Now

36
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 1: under four minutes ago in the game, Nichols slings it

37
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: to Jeremy Maclin, second week in a row with a

38
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 1: touchdown for Maclin. Game tied up at twenty seven late

39
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: in the fourth three minutes into the fourth quarter, of colts. Uh,

40
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 1: inside the tent. And that's not like instead it is

41
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 1: he's going to make magic there in scrolls. Certainly like

42
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 1: we said he went into Indie, he got it done.

43
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 1: Cody Parkey with the game winner as time expired and

44
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,800
Speaker 1: the Eagles trailing by two touchdowns in the second half,

45
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:53,679
Speaker 1: the age of their first two games begin to and

46
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,120
Speaker 1: oh on the season and a bullet You want to

47
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: talk about fantasy points a plenty. I don't know how

48
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:00,919
Speaker 1: many people you have at this Let me let me

49
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,639
Speaker 1: just put this out here real quick. Uh, the amount

50
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 1: of people that are like Darren Sprowls and Andrew Luck

51
00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:07,680
Speaker 1: last night and I still lost by one point, but

52
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,639
Speaker 1: it was so close. Hey, if you're trailing by fifty

53
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 1: points going into Monday night, you've got no business winning.

54
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,639
Speaker 1: So just except that you made it a lot closer,

55
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 1: it was interesting, but you had no business winning in

56
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 1: the first place. Let's start with the winning side and

57
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 1: the star of the game, and that would be Darren Sprowls. Uh.

58
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 1: He is unquestionably a starter every single week. Chip called

59
00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,360
Speaker 1: Kelly doing wonders with that two back set. Well, and

60
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 1: the reason why is because he really is a running

61
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 1: back in the receiver. We saw that in his ability

62
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 1: to get involved in the passing game. But then also

63
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 1: when you look at how he's involved in the running game,

64
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 1: you can line up back to, you can do a

65
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 1: lot of different things with him, and you can't say

66
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 1: that for every running back. So depend on Darren Sprowls.

67
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 1: He's gonna get his touches regardless. Listen, the guy is

68
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 1: a perfect fit for this office. We have seen it.

69
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 1: We've seen Chip Kelly produced big time numbers from the

70
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 1: running back position all the way back to his college

71
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 1: days and rolls money. You're Standard League's PPR leagues that

72
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 1: he's an RV two flex type in this offensive attack. Well,

73
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 1: and I'll tell you know there there are are similarities

74
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 1: with the Oregon offense. Obviously in the way he runs,

75
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 1: the tempo he runs with, but also in the manner

76
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 1: in which they put it on teams in the second half.

77
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: They wear defenses out. Think about Oregon in Michigan State

78
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 1: and Mark Helfreds. They're still running the same offense teams

79
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 1: just that they try to keep up and it's like

80
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 1: an NBA game, right because they're always more explosive and

81
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 1: their justments in the seven half is huge. He's a

82
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 1: better fit in this offense than he was for the

83
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 1: New Orleans st and as great as he was there.

84
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 1: And that's why you shouldn't be worried about Lashawn McCoy,

85
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 1: because there's plenty of balls to go around, right And

86
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 1: he still had twenty carries in the contest, so he's

87
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 1: sort of the guy that you're gonna get those touches

88
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,160
Speaker 1: out of the backfield, and he's still gonna catch some

89
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,920
Speaker 1: passes as well. McCoy had four catches last night. But

90
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:46,719
Speaker 1: this is what we thought it was going to be.

91
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 1: McCoy is still the bell cow. He's still the guy there.

92
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 1: Maybe gonna lose a few targets out of the backfield

93
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,720
Speaker 1: that Darren sprawls, but the offense is conduced if the

94
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 1: running backs finding success and two running backs finding success

95
00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 1: in this case, and here's why it doesn't matter if Les,

96
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 1: if Denni Sprowles is getting off with Lashawn McCoy, because

97
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,719
Speaker 1: with whatever opportunity Lashawn McCoy gets, he's going to make

98
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 1: explosive plays. And as long as he's making explosive plays,

99
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: your fantasy points are not in jeopardy. So you can

100
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: depend on both of those guys that feel comfortable. In

101
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,719
Speaker 1: the case of Macklin, you know, he nearly he should

102
00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,839
Speaker 1: have had a huge touchdown, like a sixty yard touchdown.

103
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 1: Foles under threw him a little bit. He is still

104
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 1: lightning quick. He is still the number one receiver in

105
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,919
Speaker 1: that offense. And like we'll see about every Philadelphia Eagle

106
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,279
Speaker 1: offensive player, he's a he's a big wide receivers shore.

107
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 1: I still believe he's gonna come out in wide receiver

108
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 1: one type of number if he stays healthy. Money, You're

109
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,400
Speaker 1: absolutely right. He could be right there. Remember Deshaan Jackson

110
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 1: tended fantasy points among wide receivers last year. Macklin could

111
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 1: be that guy if he can stay healthy. Right now,

112
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,720
Speaker 1: he's seventh in fantasy points among wide receivers, ahead of

113
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 1: a lot of big names. Well, the one thing that

114
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 1: they still get to play the Redskins the Cowboys. I

115
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 1: mean that there are still a Nichols gets pressure though

116
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,840
Speaker 1: in his face he's looking at Sprowles, Shady McCoy and

117
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,359
Speaker 1: not maxim It depends on and that offensive line was

118
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,040
Speaker 1: banged up last night, so you're looking for some of

119
00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 1: the lane Johnson to get healthy again. The other side

120
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 1: of the ball. Andrew Luck another three touchdown effort. Listen,

121
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 1: a guy that I said was going to break into

122
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 1: the top three. If any quarterback could do it, it

123
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,920
Speaker 1: was going to be Andrew Luck. And he's been phenomenal

124
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 1: so far. Right now, he's among the top two quarterbacks

125
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 1: in fantasy football, better than Aaron Rodgers, better than Drew Brees.

126
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 1: And this is going to continue because the Colts offensive

127
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 1: line is not that good. They put him in that

128
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,279
Speaker 1: shotgun money and he can throw it. He's got some

129
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,839
Speaker 1: great weapons. Reggie Way in his back, looks like he's healthy,

130
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:33,119
Speaker 1: looks like he's ten years his junior at this point.

131
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 1: And Luck can also run with the football, and that

132
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 1: is a big advantage for any quarterback. I always preached that,

133
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 1: and now he's got another weapon, and him on Bradshaw,

134
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 1: who looks like he's found the fountain of youth. Well,

135
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 1: and speaking of a mod Bradshaw, get a look at

136
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 1: the numbers last night and you see Bradshaw versus Richardson

137
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 1: in a number of leads NFL dot com leagues. Bradshaw

138
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,359
Speaker 1: was not even drafted. He is still available on the

139
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,160
Speaker 1: waiver wire that he go ahead and plack him up. Yeah,

140
00:06:58,240 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 1: you don't want to do that. You don't want to

141
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,279
Speaker 1: do what point six points? Fourth in week two and

142
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:05,159
Speaker 1: he's top ten overall? He is, he's eighth right now.

143
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 1: And it's funny because Trent Richardson had a good game

144
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 1: last night, right, good game. Fumbled twice, he had seven

145
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 1: and a half Fantasy points and he averaged feer than

146
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 1: four yards. But I see what you're saying with when

147
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 1: it comes to Trent Richardson. Yes, it was okay because

148
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 1: we have low expectations, but a mod Bradshaw is the

149
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 1: one who really stood out. This is his backfield. This

150
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 1: is not Trent Richardson's backfield. I believe that Pet Hamilton's

151
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 1: gonna make that adjustment moving forward, that he has to

152
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 1: be the bell cow. Maybe you sprinkling Trent Richardson there

153
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:34,880
Speaker 1: to get a little bit of breather here. Don't let

154
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:38,120
Speaker 1: money influence the way you way you play a mod Bradshaw.

155
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 1: He looks good. You play him right now. He's healthy.

156
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: What do we say, seek juice and his legs. You

157
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 1: just watched the game. The guy's got juice er I mean,

158
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 1: I mean his vision, the way he hit the whole

159
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 1: I didn't see that at with Trent richards Remember when

160
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 1: he was in New York, he was an RV two

161
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 1: in a high RV two. I know you're starting a

162
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 1: mod Bradshaw next week. Are you starting Trent richards Well,

163
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 1: they were playing the Jaguars, so that is a very

164
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:05,600
Speaker 1: good matchup. Maybe maybe a chance to get Trent exactly

165
00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 1: if you're in a twelve team league something like that.

166
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 1: But I'm still worried about Trent Richardson. I still see

167
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,560
Speaker 1: a guy who's averaging fewer than four yards per carry

168
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: is now losing carries like he did last year. Following

169
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 1: the football. Let me tell you something. He had some

170
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 1: good runs there. I saw some You think that Richardson

171
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 1: can really do some things. But to me, if this

172
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 1: is a dancing fantasy league, well you got points for dancing,

173
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pick up Trent Richardson. You play in any

174
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 1: of those leagues. No, I don't play in any of those,

175
00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 1: But I'm telling you he looked like usher Off there,

176
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 1: just dancing. Just hit the hole and you can get

177
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 1: way more bang for your button. And again, hit the ball,

178
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,439
Speaker 1: hit the turk twice. That's it. You're talking about turnovers

179
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 1: in a game like that. How the difference is is turnover.

180
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 1: So that's it for the Monday night game. For the

181
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 1: latest news, let's throw it over to Marcus. It's your money,

182
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 1: Marcus Grant here with the fantasy Maverick Adam Rank. We're

183
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:56,960
Speaker 1: getting you caught up with all the latest news and

184
00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 1: notes from around the league and NFL me to insider

185
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,719
Speaker 1: Ian Rappaport right now reporting that Redskins wide receiver the

186
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:06,960
Speaker 1: Shawn Jackson intends to play Week three against the Eagles.

187
00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 1: Jackson left the game Sunday against Jacksonville in the first

188
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 1: quarter due to a shoulder injury. Head coach Jay Bruden

189
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:15,880
Speaker 1: said Monday that Jackson's playing status is day to day

190
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,719
Speaker 1: and he'll be evaluated on how much pain he's in.

191
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 1: It would be a surprise to see d Jackson miss

192
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:23,720
Speaker 1: his Philadelphia homecoming rank. What do you expect from him

193
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:25,720
Speaker 1: in Week three? Do you think it would be kind

194
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 1: of an upset, like this is the one game he's

195
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 1: been waiting for all season. I don't think there's gonna

196
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 1: be anything that's gonna keep them from being on the field.

197
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 1: You want to think that it's just gonna be a

198
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 1: fan that he's gonna go in and take over like

199
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 1: you know, Darnell Jefferson in the you know in Fast

200
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 1: Times a ridgement. I I don't know if that's gonna

201
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 1: be the case because historically the Redskins haven't been able

202
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 1: to throw the ball in Philadelphia. Show. While it makes

203
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 1: a great narrative to borrow a phrase from Ceyton Manning,

204
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 1: I'm not sure it's gonna translate to reality narrative. Sea's

205
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 1: running back Marshawn Lynch, was seen leaving the game Sunday

206
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 1: slightly early due to back issues that head coach Pete

207
00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 1: Carroll called ongoing. Marshawn only had six carries for thirty

208
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,319
Speaker 1: six yards. He did have twenty seven receiving yards and

209
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:06,560
Speaker 1: a touchdown, but rank we came into the season with

210
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 1: concerns that this could be the year Beast mode starts

211
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:11,640
Speaker 1: to wear down. Are we seeing the beginning of that

212
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:13,719
Speaker 1: or is this just an overreaction now, because this is

213
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 1: what we talked about. You know, four hundred touches last

214
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 1: year in an extended run that carried all the way

215
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 1: through the Super Bowl, and historically when you look at

216
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 1: running backs you have had four hundred touches, they fall

217
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 1: off a little bit the following year and So when

218
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 1: you look at Seattle's offense, they've got a lot of

219
00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:31,080
Speaker 1: more explosiveness with guys like Percy Harvid. And they weren't

220
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 1: afraid to use Bobby Turbot in this game either. Christian

221
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,439
Speaker 1: Michael wasn't inactive. But again, they've got other options that

222
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:38,600
Speaker 1: there looking for the long term, which you know the

223
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:41,560
Speaker 1: Seahawks are. There's no reason to give this guy thirty

224
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 1: touches twenty touches a game because they can go with

225
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:46,080
Speaker 1: the other options, may start to arrest him for that

226
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 1: playoff run that they're hoping to make. Bengals coach Marvin

227
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,199
Speaker 1: Lewis told the media Monday that's star receiver A. J.

228
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:54,720
Speaker 1: Green's toe and foot issues are not a long term injury.

229
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,200
Speaker 1: Still unclear on whether or not Green will play in

230
00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 1: Week three. Since the Bengals have a buying Week four,

231
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,120
Speaker 1: could choose to rest their star player for a couple

232
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 1: of weeks. At this point ranks, so people think about

233
00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:06,800
Speaker 1: going out and grabbing a guy like Mohammed Sunou off Waivers.

234
00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 1: He would be the number one wide receiver option to

235
00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:11,880
Speaker 1: come off the board. Yeah. Absolutely, he showed snow looks

236
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,079
Speaker 1: pretty good. You know, you go back to his rookie season,

237
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 1: he started to show a little bit of promise before

238
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,560
Speaker 1: he was injured, and now this season he was targeted

239
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 1: six times in that first game. He had a hundred

240
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,959
Speaker 1: and forty scrimmage yards last week. He's a pretty good

241
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 1: he's a pretty good viable option. Plus the chance he

242
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 1: might throw a touchdown pass in there, so you guys

243
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 1: got that he can do that for it out of

244
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 1: side and Vernon Davis has avoided a serious ankle injury,

245
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 1: according to Cus in Bay Area, and he could be

246
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 1: available to play this week. Davis had an m r

247
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 1: I on his left ankle Monday and results to show

248
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:45,320
Speaker 1: a deep bruise and no structural damage. San Francisco faces

249
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:49,000
Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals Sunday, who are notoriously bad against side.

250
00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 1: Ends any concerns Davis has slowed with a bad wheel

251
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,440
Speaker 1: this week. As long as he's able to play, he

252
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 1: plays for my fantasy team. I'm not gonna be too

253
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 1: concerned about it. We are pretty lucky that he avoided

254
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 1: or he's pretty lucky too that he avoided serious injury.

255
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 1: And as you said, the matchup against Arizona is very

256
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:04,840
Speaker 1: good because there they just give up a lot of

257
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:06,840
Speaker 1: points to tight ends. You saw Antonio Gates do that

258
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 1: in week one, and then last week Larry Dennell was

259
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 1: targeted a ton by Eli Manning. So Verdon Davis figures

260
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 1: to be featured prominently in this passing game. Yeah, I

261
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:17,679
Speaker 1: think most folks would go Vernon Davis or Larry Dennell,

262
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 1: so that that's probably maybe it's a little baby Falcons

263
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,560
Speaker 1: White out Roddy White miss practice on Tuesday, dude to

264
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,400
Speaker 1: a hamstring injury. White and the Falcons are set to

265
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,160
Speaker 1: play against the Buccaneers on Thursday, so this is definitely

266
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,959
Speaker 1: worth keeping an eye on since time is short. If

267
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,560
Speaker 1: White can't go, is it worth going out and getting

268
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 1: a guy like Harry Douglass off waivers? Absolutely? I really

269
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:40,640
Speaker 1: like this matchup. Hopefully Roddy White will take the Twitter

270
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 1: like he did last year and let us know whether

271
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 1: he's a thumbs up or thumbs down. Roddy, we're waiting for.

272
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,679
Speaker 1: Just go ahead, let us know we're cool. Absolutely all right?

273
00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 1: Still to come? Is it signed to hit the big

274
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 1: red panic button on a few stars you used high

275
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,199
Speaker 1: draft picks on. Well, help is on the way. In

276
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,560

Speaker 1: let us know help them the most in Week two.

291
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:59,440
Speaker 1: So we get started with that spectacular contest between the

292
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,680
Speaker 1: Bears and into the forty Niners in San Francisco. Fabs

293
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,080
Speaker 1: Jay Cutler. What a game he had, and I have

294
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 1: to admit I blew that call. I didn't like that

295
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 1: matchup against San Francisco. He hadn't done anything against the

296
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 1: Niners and two career starts, But that's what happens in

297
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,840
Speaker 1: fantasy football guys, if you were smart enough to start

298
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:18,599
Speaker 1: him and smarter than me, well you definitely reaped the rewards.

299
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 1: And it's great getting all those points and a night game,

300
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 1: especially if you're down going into that contest. And Cutler

301
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 1: and Marshall they continue to make beautiful fantasy music together.

302
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 1: What a great catch Marshall made in the end zone.

303
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:34,680
Speaker 1: Three touchdowns overall, Jay Cutler looking very good so far,

304
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 1: and he's got a good match up on the horizon

305
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 1: against those New York Jets on Monday night. Now, let's saying,

306
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 1: Jordy Nelson, Aaron Rodgers, how do they do this? Pretty

307
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:48,280
Speaker 1: good Jets? How about Philip Rivers rank absolutely amazing from

308
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:52,800
Speaker 1: my bench, Glad that I Becker, you know, a lot

309
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 1: of though he was started by less than tempers under

310
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 1: the population, but we're here to celebrate those who actually

311
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,120
Speaker 1: started Philip Rivers. And what a game that chart just

312
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 1: put out. What a game plan, you know, really taking

313
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:05,040
Speaker 1: advantage of the middle of the field using Antonio Gates.

314
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 1: And when I drafted Philip this year, I was kind

315
00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:09,640
Speaker 1: of worried about the first two games. He had a

316
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 1: tough match up against Arizona to start Week one, then,

317
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 1: of course he had this one against the Seahawks. But

318
00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 1: now it looks like it's gonna be a little bit

319
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 1: more smooth sailing. He's got Buffalo this week. I started

320
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 1: him for the rest of the year. Let's talk rookie

321
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 1: wide receivers, Marcus. I have been big on rookie wide

322
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 1: receivers this year, and Sammy Watkins near the top of

323
00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 1: that list. He's finally healthy after kind of being banged

324
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:29,640
Speaker 1: up in the preseason, went out and and showed out

325
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 1: big against the Miami Dolphins. Over a hundred yards receiven

326
00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 1: first Bill's rookie receiver with a hundred yards in a

327
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 1: game since Lee Evans in two thousands. Let's hope he

328
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 1: has a better finish than Lee Evans did. I like

329
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 1: the way Sammy Watkins looks right now. Yeah, I'm gonna uh.

330
00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,360
Speaker 1: I got quite a bit of Twitter traffic. I'm sure

331
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 1: all of you did as well on Brandon Marshall and

332
00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:49,800
Speaker 1: whether or not I start him once the word was

333
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 1: out that he was gonna play, and I tried to

334
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:54,640
Speaker 1: make this as simple as possible. When Brandon Marshall, a

335
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 1: top five receiver, top three receiver in the NFL, is

336
00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 1: playing understand that six of him is going to be

337
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,760
Speaker 1: better than a hundred percent of nearly every wide receiver.

338
00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:06,320
Speaker 1: To reflects that you're going to put him. What one

339
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:09,720
Speaker 1: stuck out a keen Knicks are Brandon Marshall. Go ahead

340
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 1: and start Brandon Marshall. Don't start playing matchups just yet.

341
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 1: Don't worry about injuries just yet yet. Let players prove

342
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,360
Speaker 1: to you that they aren't healthy, that the matchups are

343
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 1: bad before you start benching them for a LOWERD to

344
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 1: your players. Jordy Nelson rank, Yeah, people were freaking out

345
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 1: about him after week one, but seriously, Sea Hugs. That

346
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 1: kind of stuff is just gonna happen when you go up,

347
00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 1: especially when you're in Seattle. But Jordy Nelson was fantastic.

348
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:35,760
Speaker 1: He almost pardoned me for the sin of benching Philip

349
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 1: Rivers for Jake Locker, but not quite enough, but he did.

350
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:41,320
Speaker 1: He was amazing, and he's got to He's actually got

351
00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 1: a tough matchup this week against Detroit. His last two

352
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 1: visits to the Motor City haven't been very good. And

353
00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 1: I guess I'm only saying that to bump you out,

354
00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 1: because again, to your point, money, you're not gonna bench

355
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 1: Jordy Nelson. It's it's fun to talk about, but Jordy

356
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 1: Nelson is a guy you start each and every week

357
00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:57,640
Speaker 1: quietly becoming one of the best receivers in fantasy almost

358
00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:00,800
Speaker 1: the top five guy. I'm out a waiver wire pick

359
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,040
Speaker 1: up for you, FABS and Delaney Walker. The worked out.

360
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:06,880
Speaker 1: How about we had a Walker right last week? Jake Blacker. Okay,

361
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 1: that's a different story much. But Delanney Walker was fantastic

362
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:12,440
Speaker 1: against the Dallas Cowboys, putting up ten catches, had fourteen

363
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 1: targets in the contest. Right now, he is one of

364
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 1: the ten best tight ends in fantasy football. If you

365
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,680
Speaker 1: look at points. He escored a touchdown in each of

366
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 1: his first two games of the year. He's athletic. He's

367
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 1: a lot faster than I thought he was. Two boy,

368
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,400
Speaker 1: he had that one touchdown where he just burned through

369
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,920
Speaker 1: that Dallas secondary. He's available in a lot of leagues

370
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:30,920
Speaker 1: on NFL dot Com right now. Pick him up. I'll

371
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 1: stick with the tight end. We said it after Week one.

372
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,880
Speaker 1: Philip Rivers is very Peyton Manning esque in his trust level.

373
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:40,920
Speaker 1: He trusts Antonio Gates. He helped put Antonio Gates into

374
00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:42,840
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame, and that's where Antonio Gates is

375
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 1: going to end up. And you could see it in

376
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 1: Week one against Arizona. That repeatedly was the direction he

377
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,639
Speaker 1: went against the Cardinals, and he did it again against

378
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 1: the Seahawks. They had no answer for Gates in the

379
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:55,879
Speaker 1: middle of the field, and Philip Rivers took advantage of it,

380
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,400
Speaker 1: exploited it, and I suspect he'll do the same thing

381
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 1: this week in Buffalo. Love Antonio Gates moving forward. How

382
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:04,520
Speaker 1: about some defense, Marcus. Absolutely, you would think that on

383
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:06,680
Speaker 1: a day when we celebrated the two hundred anniversary of

384
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:08,840
Speaker 1: the Star Spangled Banner, the Patriots defense would step up

385
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 1: and play well, right, you gotta be. They were a

386
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 1: huge six SAgs before takeaway and she had the block

387
00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 1: field goal, Chandler Jones with the scoop and score and

388
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:23,160
Speaker 1: a huge, huge day for the Patriots defense. I don't

389
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:24,440
Speaker 1: know that you can start him every single week, but

390
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:26,480
Speaker 1: that was certainly a fantastic matchup against the bite things

391
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 1: on Sunday, I just I just want you to deliver

392
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,600
Speaker 1: that line again, because I know you've been sitting on

393
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:35,119
Speaker 1: it all the show. Go ahead, deliver it again. The

394
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,160
Speaker 1: day we celebrate the two D the Star Spangled banner.

395
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,880
Speaker 1: That's wonderful. I mean, anything else you want to put

396
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,399
Speaker 1: in there, I think I'm done now, all right? That

397
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:51,040
Speaker 1: was That was Game Changers presented by Bows. All right,

Speaker 1: with your fantasy teams, because it's a great tool. Well,

405
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,680
Speaker 1: what I love is those instant in game highlights of

406
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 1: the fantasy players that I have. So I remember when

407
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 1: to Marco Murray scored that touched on against the Titans,

408
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:19,800
Speaker 1: and I have de Marco Moore in one of my leagues. Well,

409
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 1: I was loving seeing him across that go live, would imagine?

410
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:24,440
Speaker 1: So yes see, Actually, I can't get enough of watching

411
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,480
Speaker 1: you guys. So the fact that I can watch NFL

412
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 1: Fantasy Live on my phone, on my tablet, my Xbox,

413
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:31,720
Speaker 1: whenever you have it, I love it. That's that's the

414
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,160
Speaker 1: best part. You know, It's leveled the playing field because

415
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:35,240
Speaker 1: there used to be a time where I'd have a

416
00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:37,240
Speaker 1: leg up on the competition, but now all my friends

417
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 1: use NFL now, And so when Brandon Marshall was an active,

418
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:43,200
Speaker 1: my friend actually put him back into his lineup and

419
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:46,119
Speaker 1: I lost because of it. So NFL now give it

420
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:49,119
Speaker 1: certainly and take it away both. It's great, but it's

421
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,359
Speaker 1: horrible too. And by horrible, I mean for us, because

422
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:52,920
Speaker 1: it's hard for us to have the advantage now. Still

423
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 1: on NFL Fantasy Live, Week two was full of big

424
00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,360
Speaker 1: fantasy injuries, which means Week three is full of big

425
00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 1: waver wire targets. Coming up, we reveal which backup running

426
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 1: back is ready to put up big numbers. And if

427

00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:42,159
Speaker 1: presented by the makers of Clareton Welcome back to NFL

437
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:45,160
Speaker 1: Fantasy Live. Bat Money Smith here, Adam Rank here. Barbara

438
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 1: should be a mel giggly over there with the Hall

439
00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 1: of Fame. Fabia don't know it's so funny. The waiver

440
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:52,159
Speaker 1: wire man, it's serious business. For a season is one

441
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,720
Speaker 1: in loss. So let's help clarify who you should be

442
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:57,119
Speaker 1: targeting this week. And for that we lean on our

443
00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:02,000
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer Michael Fabiano's top ten waiver wire targets

444
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,439
Speaker 1: running back, running back, wunning back to running backs. Hey,

445
00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:07,440
Speaker 1: this is while receiving tette running back wide receivers a

446
00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 1: lot of running backs for a while. All right, Fabs,

447
00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,880
Speaker 1: let's get to the white waiver wire players. They're at

448
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:16,040
Speaker 1: the top of your list. Why don't you get a started.

449
00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 1: Your number one is obviously Nil Davis. Nil Davis because

450
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,280
Speaker 1: Jamal Charles has a high ankle sprain and you guys,

451
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:23,720
Speaker 1: we know that's that could be a four to six

452
00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 1: week injury. And Nile Davis to me, has the most

453
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:29,080
Speaker 1: upside and the most scoring potential of any of those

454
00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:30,840
Speaker 1: running backs on the waiver while look what he did

455
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 1: last week against the Denver Broncos. Four touches had a

456
00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:37,879
Speaker 1: huge game twenty two point five fantasy points. And that

457
00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:40,600
Speaker 1: offense is conducive to running backs putting up big numbers.

458
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:43,320
Speaker 1: Jamal Charles the top running back in fantasy football just

459
00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:46,479
Speaker 1: one season ago. Nile Davis is my guy. And if

460
00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:48,000
Speaker 1: I'm in a league where I have to bid on

461
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 1: free agents, I'm telling you, if I got a thousand

462
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:54,760
Speaker 1: dollar cap, I'm going six on it. Well, certainly, just

463
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,560
Speaker 1: sticking with the theme there, fabs and running backs get hurt.

464
00:21:57,640 --> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 1: That's what happens, Sam. And when you have a situation

465
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,760
Speaker 1: Kansas City with Jamal Charles, totally understand. Now Davis, you

466
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:04,679
Speaker 1: have one in San Diego as well, And that's an

467
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 1: m c L injury to Ryan Matthews. I think a

468
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:09,439
Speaker 1: lot of people thought it might be coming. He's been

469
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:12,920
Speaker 1: banged up his whole career. And Ryan Matthews down with

470
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:14,840
Speaker 1: that m c L and Donald Brown at his back up.

471
00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:16,680
Speaker 1: And look, you know why I like Donald Brown because

472
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 1: his name is Donald. Let's go into the annals to

473
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:22,200
Speaker 1: the NFL. You know where the great running backs, Jim Walter,

474
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:28,399
Speaker 1: Marry Franko, Tony I don't follow you don't say him.

475
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:31,320
Speaker 1: That doesn't help me with my point rank I wasn't

476
00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 1: gonna say. And there at the point is with Donald Brown,

477
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 1: he was explosive in that Indianapolis offense last year when

478
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,639
Speaker 1: Trent Richardson couldn't be He is a productive player that

479
00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:43,600
Speaker 1: has not been given a real opportunity in that offense

480
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 1: with Mike McCoy. They love to run the ball. They

481
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,040
Speaker 1: want to run the ball. He's headed to Buffalo. I

482
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:51,119
Speaker 1: love Donald Brown off that way for wire? What do

483
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:56,480
Speaker 1: you another solid name though? You're going Hyrie Rosso, Kyrie Robinson.

484
00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:59,679
Speaker 1: A lot of fantasy enthusiasts they like to check out

485
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,600
Speaker 1: during the playoffs. But you know, last year, Kyrie kind

486
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:04,639
Speaker 1: of emerge in that game against the Eagles and he

487
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:06,640
Speaker 1: looked like a straight up hoss and he was somebody

488
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,200
Speaker 1: I was really excited about coming into the season. But

489
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:11,919
Speaker 1: you know what, Mark Ingram beat him at Farren Square.

490
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,880
Speaker 1: But now he's gonna get his opportunity with Ingram out

491
00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 1: with a hand injury for at least a month. So

492
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 1: Robinson is the guy that being targeting on the waiver wire.

493
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,119
Speaker 1: Although I had picked him up and I had to

494
00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:24,320
Speaker 1: drop him because I depend up s Antonio Holmes to

495
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,080
Speaker 1: back up my branded Marshall play. But Kyrie Robins, I

496
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:29,040
Speaker 1: really like what he's gonna be able to do. I

497
00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 1: know Pierre Thomas is down there. Pierre Thomas is gonna

498
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,600
Speaker 1: have the same exact role. He's gonna catch seventy passes.

499
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:37,480
Speaker 1: He's gonna be a part of that offense. But there's

500
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,200
Speaker 1: for Robinson too. If you got a quarterback meat, you

501
00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 1: know what, look at Kirk Cousins. I wouldn't look too

502
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:43,680
Speaker 1: far away. I mean, I know in year one we

503
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:45,720
Speaker 1: were impressed when we did see him in limited action.

504
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,960
Speaker 1: He did some things. Year two weren't. Weren't really impressed

505
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,440
Speaker 1: with Kirk Cousins. I believe at this point now, I

506
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 1: think what Jake Gruten can help Kirk Cousin do is

507
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,440
Speaker 1: really help him evolved as a complete quarterback. Course. We

508
00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,159
Speaker 1: know r G three out with that dislocated ankles, so

509
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:01,119
Speaker 1: he's gonna get a lot of action, but he was

510
00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:03,919
Speaker 1: able to get connected with his tight end. I think

511
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:06,119
Speaker 1: Peter Garson is gonna get involved in this offense, and

512
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:07,840
Speaker 1: he's got a lot of guys around him to make

513
00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:10,119
Speaker 1: him better. Let's get one more running back in here. Fabs.

514
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,160
Speaker 1: Let's do it. Bobby Rainy, Hey, guys, have you noticed

515
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,640
Speaker 1: a trend? Last year Doug Martin played, didn't play well,

516
00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,399
Speaker 1: he got hurt. Mike James come in. Was great that

517
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 1: he got hurt. Bobby Randy came in, he played well.

518
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,320
Speaker 1: This year Martin played, didn't do anything in that first

519
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,719
Speaker 1: game before getting hurt. Randy comes in in Week two

520
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,640
Speaker 1: and gashes the Rams for a hundred forty four rushing yards.

521
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 1: This week he's playing on Thursday Night Football on CBS

522
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:33,320
Speaker 1: and NFL Network against Atlanta. They've given up more fantasy

523
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 1: points of running backs and any team in the National

524
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:38,800
Speaker 1: Football League. I'm worried about Doug Martin because every other

525
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:40,680
Speaker 1: running back that's coming to replace him is looked a

526
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 1: lot better than he has. Same formula applies Love Smith

527
00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,160
Speaker 1: and Jeff Teifford. They want to run the ball, especially

528
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:48,159
Speaker 1: with Josh McCown's struggling, so no doubt at the very

529
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 1: least he's gonna get the touches. And when he's been

530
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:52,960
Speaker 1: getting the touch very good. Let's get one more running

531
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:54,280
Speaker 1: back and gonna bank it up to you and go

532
00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:58,800
Speaker 1: with John stoln That was Bobby. I like it took

533
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 1: a name, Bobby John This is you know, if you're

534
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:03,720
Speaker 1: further down the waiver wire like I am, in a

535
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 1: couple of leagues, John Stewart is somebody to go ahead

536
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 1: and target. I like the matchup this week against the Steelers,

537
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,199
Speaker 1: who haven't been able to stop anybody on the run.

538
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,200
Speaker 1: You go all the way back to the preseason. Teams

539
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 1: have been able to bring to gain a lot of

540
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 1: yards on the ground against the Steelers. So I'm picking

541
00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,119
Speaker 1: up I'm picking him up, especially if the Angelo Williams

542
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:21,520
Speaker 1: is a no go for a second contecutive week. Pretty

543
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:23,880
Speaker 1: solid option right there. All right, let's get how about

544
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 1: a non running back. Yes, let's a wide receiver. Finally,

545
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 1: Mohammed's newer. Mohammed's a good name, but mahamedon knew even

546
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:34,879
Speaker 1: if you look back at the Week one game, he

547
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:36,720
Speaker 1: was still being targeted. I think he was targeted like

548
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 1: five or six times by Andy Down So you know

549
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 1: that Hugh Jackson is gonna try to get him involved.

550
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,080
Speaker 1: But with a J. Green out with this or with

551
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:46,639
Speaker 1: his toe injury, not out, but just with his toe injury,

552
00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:48,720
Speaker 1: I think some new was going to be a very

553
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:52,320
Speaker 1: good flex play with or without a J. Green. Playing

554
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:54,040
Speaker 1: in this game. Hey, did you get the four points

555
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:59,359
Speaker 1: for that touchdown? Me through? Yea, he he's got an arm, right,

556
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:02,240
Speaker 1: you get those four points for that touchdown thrown? I do,

557
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:04,239
Speaker 1: just quickly. I do, because we did not have an

558
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 1: opportunity to engage on the kyrie as somebody that has

559
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:11,080
Speaker 1: been touting mark Ingram all preseason, all season. It does

560
00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,920
Speaker 1: drive you bananas at the man's averaging darn near seven

561
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,960
Speaker 1: yards per carry and he's carrying the ball eleven times,

562
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:18,719
Speaker 1: even though we still get you the points, even though

563
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:22,119
Speaker 1: it's still explosive. Yeah, it just means just just a

564
00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 1: little bit more from those running backs from Shanta, it

565
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:26,359
Speaker 1: looks like it's working, all right. That was clear choices

566
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:32,840
Speaker 1: presented by the makers of Clarity, just saying a seven

567
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:35,359
Speaker 1: yards per carry, maybe a few more. Coming up on

568
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:37,720
Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Live. Time to ring that opening bell, because

569
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:39,560
Speaker 1: we're taking a look at the fantasy stock market. We

570
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,680
Speaker 1: debate whose value is falling fast and whose stock is

571
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:53,120
Speaker 1: soaring to new heights. All right, Welcome back to NFL Fantasy,

572
00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 1: the official football show of the NFL. Matt Money, Smith

573
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:00,840
Speaker 1: Year and Marcus Grant, the Fantasy All of Famer Michael

574
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:06,880
Speaker 1: Fabiano and uh yeah, wat wat wat wan dropping. Remember

575
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:09,880
Speaker 1: you can follow us on Twitter at NFL Fantasy. Let's

576
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:11,359
Speaker 1: get to the highlights. We had a Monday night or

577
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:13,760
Speaker 1: last night chok full of fantasy points. We love that

578
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 1: Andrew Luck Look at that beer he had to go on,

579
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,640
Speaker 1: the beautiful beer. Nick Foles, look at that beer. Little

580
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,480
Speaker 1: pack twelve at in there, Stanford, Arizona. And how about

581
00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 1: a mod brand probably got pick a little bit if

582
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:27,280
Speaker 1: he's in your league. Things to come on. Bradshaw colds

583
00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:30,120
Speaker 1: up seven three third quarter now Eagles down a touchdown

584
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:34,600
Speaker 1: and Darren speaking about if there's somebody who can shave

585
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 1: a defense, it's Darren's broke. I'm probably for that t D.

586
00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 1: It's twenty now, three minutes into the fourth quarter. Colts

587
00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:47,879
Speaker 1: inside the tent. You know it's the vertical by the

588
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,919
Speaker 1: way there on them on bridge. I could tell Bradshaw

589
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 1: would end the night with over twenty one fantasy points.

590
00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:55,680
Speaker 1: Now under four minutes, Eagles down seven, Nick Foles, Jeremy

591
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 1: Maclin second week in a row with a touchdown and

592
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:03,159
Speaker 1: the Eagles go on to win. It's thirty seven games.

593
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,120
Speaker 1: There is a plea of fantasy points on the board,

594
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 1: Andrew Lockma Bradshaw, Nick Poles, mccoyle, Darren Sproles, you are

595
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:17,440
Speaker 1: no flex running back Darren Sproles, and Jeremy Macklin, not

596
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,120
Speaker 1: to mention Cody Parkey, who won a couple of leagues

597
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:22,320
Speaker 1: out there. So wait, two is in the books, guy,

598
00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:25,240
Speaker 1: So let's get a look at which stock is up

599
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:28,680
Speaker 1: and who's stock is falling. We'll start with the Risers

600
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 1: fabs as we expand beyond that. Monday Night or uh

601
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:35,800
Speaker 1: in the NFC East, DeMarco Murray, how good has he been? Great?

602
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,360
Speaker 1: We're talking about the number one running back in fantasy

603
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:40,920
Speaker 1: football right now based on points. He has been phenomenal.

604
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:43,120
Speaker 1: He is a bell cow for the Dallas Cowboys. If

605
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 1: the Cowboys are gonna stay in the NFC East race,

606
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:48,640
Speaker 1: they need to run the football and DeMarco Murray is

607
00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 1: proving that he is one of the better featured backs

608
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:53,920
Speaker 1: in the National Football League. And let's remember, guys, he's

609
00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 1: in a contract year, so he's playing for dough and

610
00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,760
Speaker 1: that is a big motivation for a lot of players.

611
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:02,760
Speaker 1: DeMarco has been fantas aastic right now. Again, the number

612
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:06,320
Speaker 1: one running back and fish football, it's not Jamal Charles Boys,

613
00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:10,920
Speaker 1: that is it. De Marco Murray stay healthy tomorrow, Please

614
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 1: stay fine, King of health. Marcus health impacts your stock

615
00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 1: up here definitely. Pierre Thomas is a guy who stock

616
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:20,440
Speaker 1: is definitely going up because of the injury to Mark Ingram.

617
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 1: We knew Thomas is gonna be a guy who's gonna

618
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,719
Speaker 1: be big in PPR league simply because he gets targets,

619
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:27,240
Speaker 1: he gets catches. But now with Ingram out of action,

620
00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:29,600
Speaker 1: Thomas is gonna get a lot of those carries. Yes,

621
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 1: Kyrie Robinson will jump in there, he'll get some looks

622
00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:33,280
Speaker 1: as well, but Thomas, I think it's going to be

623
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 1: the guy that takes over for the near future. He's

624
00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 1: a guy who can be on the field for three downs.

625
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:39,520
Speaker 1: It's always a big plus. I had quite a few

626
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 1: Cam Newton questions going into week three weeks two. I

627
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 1: assume you guys did as well, stock up or down.

628
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:49,680
Speaker 1: Be very confident that Cam Newton stock is definitely going

629
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:52,400
Speaker 1: up when you think about him coming back from injury.

630
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:54,880
Speaker 1: I think he's surrounded with some a little bit better

631
00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:57,120
Speaker 1: talent because Derrick Anderson did a great job in warming

632
00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:00,600
Speaker 1: up the confidence of Kelvin Kelvin Benjamin. When you talk

633
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:02,840
Speaker 1: about going up against a strong defense like the Detroit

634
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 1: Lions and be able to put up nineteen points, that's

635
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:07,800
Speaker 1: big for Cam Newton, not afraid to get out there run,

636
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 1: even with his rip injury and with the ankle thing

637
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:12,760
Speaker 1: going on. So I like Cam Newton to continue to

638
00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 1: get better and produce, no question, right there with you,

639
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 1: I was astounded at the statistic. The Chicago Bears defense,

640
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 1: once drafted inside the top ten rounds, is owned in

641
00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:26,840
Speaker 1: just of our NFL dot Com league. Certainly they were

642
00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 1: terrible last year. You think about the addition, specifically on

643
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:33,480
Speaker 1: that defensive line. Jared Allen, Willie Young Mel Tucker runs

644
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:35,760
Speaker 1: the same style of defense that Letty Smith did, so

645
00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:38,080
Speaker 1: not a lot of scheme change there. The players are

646
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 1: getting more comfortable and they are getting to the quarterback

647
00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 1: and that means a lot of opportunities for interceptions. Already

648
00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:46,040
Speaker 1: this year. I suspect that trend will continue. There's just

649
00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:48,120
Speaker 1: too much talent on that side of the ball. I'd

650
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,560
Speaker 1: say pick up that Bears defense. If your defense has

651
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,800
Speaker 1: been letting you down, all right, let's put it to

652
00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 1: the other side now. So I guess we knew all

653
00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 1: that was gonna be stock up. This will all be

654
00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 1: uh stock down fasts where we starting Tom Brady. Listen,

655
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:05,200
Speaker 1: he's not even talking to him. He's playing so bad

656
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:08,280
Speaker 1: right now. Okay, this is the problem because Tom Brady

657
00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 1: has had a couple of decent matchups. Last week, I

658
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,400
Speaker 1: liked him against the NFC team Minnesota on the road

659
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:17,040
Speaker 1: where he had really thrived and he didn't do anything.

660
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:19,640
Speaker 1: He's not even howaging a living fantasy points per game

661
00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:21,880
Speaker 1: right now for fantasy owners. Now, I know he's playing

662
00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,400
Speaker 1: the Raiders this week and the Raiders defense is lousy,

663
00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 1: so maybe he's still on the QB one radar. I'd

664
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,640
Speaker 1: feel more comfortable if he actually put up more than

665
00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 1: fifteen or sixteen fantasy points in the game. I still

666
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:34,720
Speaker 1: say he's a low n QB one, But right now, guys,

667
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 1: that arrow is pointing downward. But he's playing the Raiders.

668
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:45,520
Speaker 1: But he's playing the Raiders exactly. Dennis Pitt. Dennis Pitt

669
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:47,400
Speaker 1: is a guy that I like a lot coming into

670
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:50,960
Speaker 1: this season. Outside, I'm guessing most of America forgot. Owen

671
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 1: Daniels is with the Ravens until he caught two touchdown

672
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 1: passing week to look Daniels is not gonna catch two

673
00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:58,440
Speaker 1: touchdown passes every week. But what concerns me is that

674
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:00,280
Speaker 1: he's going to be a bigger part of the offense.

675
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:02,760
Speaker 1: Then I think a lot of us anticipated. Yes, the

676
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 1: Steelers shut down Pitter, that's kind of what they do.

677
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,680
Speaker 1: I'm just more worried that suddenly Flacco's got that second

678
00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 1: tight end option that's gonna draw some targets away. Unlike

679
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,480
Speaker 1: some people in this business, I am ready to admit

680
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:15,800
Speaker 1: my mistakes. I have already done it more than once

681
00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 1: on this very show. But I told you so. Do

682
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:21,479
Speaker 1: not get too freaked out. Over one week, the Niners

683
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:24,880
Speaker 1: were blowing out the Cowboys, and Carlos Hide got all

684
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:27,400
Speaker 1: that second half action because they wanted to rest Frank

685
00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:29,720
Speaker 1: Gore after he piled up sixty six yards. He is

686
00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:32,880
Speaker 1: not going to be used regularly. He did not produce

687
00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:36,200
Speaker 1: against the Bears, and unless they're looking to again give

688
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:38,960
Speaker 1: Gore a breather, I don't suspect you're going to see

689
00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:42,840
Speaker 1: a running back tandem in San Francisco, and Carlos Hides

690
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,040
Speaker 1: not even a flex starter for me moving forward until

691
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:49,040
Speaker 1: he proves otherwise. Well, you know, for me, that's the

692
00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:54,000
Speaker 1: definitive state down. Um the Seattle Seahawks defense. So you

693
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:56,479
Speaker 1: think about the way Philip Rivers was able to attack

694
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,960
Speaker 1: this defense, wasn't afraid to challenge the wider excuse me,

695
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:03,480
Speaker 1: their cornerbacks, especially Richard Sherman. But what was impressive to

696
00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:05,720
Speaker 1: me were just kind of a big question mark was

697
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 1: they didn't get a sack in this game. You mean

698
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,360
Speaker 1: to tell me that you had touchdowns and no sacks,

699
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,760
Speaker 1: no pressure on the quarterback. You can't get Philip Rivers

700
00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:14,920
Speaker 1: that kind of time. And now they're going up against

701
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:17,160
Speaker 1: the Denver Broncos. Start them, You start them this week.

702
00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 1: You know what I'm gonna I'm not gonna start him

703
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 1: this week because I know Peyton Manning. I'm not. I

704
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:24,800
Speaker 1: really not, because I know Peyton Manning is going to

705
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:29,240
Speaker 1: absolutely destroy this defense. He's so already when the charges

706
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 1: get to him on defense, you don't think that he's

707
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:33,480
Speaker 1: going to take that same game point. It's called a

708
00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:39,560
Speaker 1: scouting take a book. When NFL Fantasy, you'll have return takes.

709
00:33:39,600 --> 00:33:42,560
Speaker 1: We're only two weeks and you're already reaching for the

710
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:44,760
Speaker 1: panic button. Well you're not the only one will tell

711
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:48,160
Speaker 1: you which fantasy stars have us freaking out already lost.

712
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:51,200
Speaker 1: It's time to put some players to pasture. Really, there

713
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:53,440
Speaker 1: are no free rides on a championship roster, and we're

714
00:33:53,480 --> 00:34:01,040
Speaker 1: telling you which guys. You gotta get the acts. Thursday

Speaker 1: All right, welcome back to NFL Fantasy Live, presented by

719
00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 1: bos Matt money Smith. Here, Rank Akbar Fabs and many

720
00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:22,840
Speaker 1: of folks are hitting that their panic button on a

721
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:26,719
Speaker 1: number of underperforming stars. So we're gonna help the people

722
00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:30,320
Speaker 1: out with a segment we cleverly like to call ready

723
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 1: for it. I thought went into this one, okay, if

724
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:35,640
Speaker 1: only we had Timpani drums. It's right there on the

725
00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:40,160
Speaker 1: lower third. Panic don't panic. Yeah, but on the strett

726
00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 1: I don't know that it's called p O D P

727
00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 1: pot up. So get it started. I will give you

728
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:50,279
Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick. Panic. Don't don't panic on Colin Kaepernick. When

729
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:52,680
Speaker 1: I look at the way Colin Kaepernick has played. Yes,

730
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:54,799
Speaker 1: he's in that game against the Chicago Bears. He threw

731
00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:57,440
Speaker 1: three intersect lock of the Week. Yeah, I really do.

732
00:34:57,560 --> 00:34:59,200
Speaker 1: I believe in him. The reason why is because I

733
00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:02,400
Speaker 1: know Jim Harball is really working with Colin Kaepernick to

734
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:04,279
Speaker 1: stay in the pocket, go through his read and you've

735
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,239
Speaker 1: seen some of that now. He's trying to fight his

736
00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:08,279
Speaker 1: instinct to get out that pocket and run. And it

737
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:10,520
Speaker 1: doesn't help when you have your right tackle Jonathan Martin

738
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:13,200
Speaker 1: who can't help with the protection and say you have

739
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,200
Speaker 1: to have that trust factor. There's a trust factor will

740
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:19,120
Speaker 1: young ate him up. But Colin Kaepernick is going to

741
00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:21,879
Speaker 1: get better as the season progresses because he's he's gonna

742
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:24,440
Speaker 1: be a dual threat a quarterback to condise you from

743
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 1: the pocket and then oh, have the ability to run

744
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:29,320
Speaker 1: out of the pocket. That's dangerous and he'll go to

745
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 1: that read option all that other stuff. You stick with

746
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:33,480
Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick. Don't panick. So the Bears put it on

747
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,040
Speaker 1: Colin Kaepernick. Let's stick in the NFC North Fabs. I

748
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,800
Speaker 1: will give you Eddie Lacey panic, don't panic, and this

749
00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:40,759
Speaker 1: is a guy that I am not panicking on. In fact,

750
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:43,520
Speaker 1: I would buy low on Eddie Lacy right now. Remember

751
00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:46,440
Speaker 1: first game of the season Seattle Seahawks in Seattle, who

752
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:49,480
Speaker 1: does anything there a fantasy perspective, and he got hurt,

753
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 1: so he missed some time. Then he came back played

754
00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:54,440
Speaker 1: the Jets really good run defense, I mean really good

755
00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:56,920
Speaker 1: run defense, and so I'm not surprised he put up

756
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,319
Speaker 1: big numbers. Things are gonna get better for Eddie Lacy.

757
00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:01,120
Speaker 1: So if there's no owner out there that has any

758
00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:04,040
Speaker 1: Lacy and he's deciding that he's panicking, he's freaking out,

759
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:06,200
Speaker 1: he doesn't want him anymore, go ahead and take him

760
00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 1: off that owner's hands. Things will get better, I promise

761
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:11,560
Speaker 1: you for Eddie Lacy owners. All Right, I feel like

762
00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:14,239
Speaker 1: I'm just lobbing a softball up that ship here, rank

763
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:17,040
Speaker 1: because I need some panic in my life. Dog, you're

764
00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:20,520
Speaker 1: coming to the right Doug Martin, Tampa Bay. I'm panicking

765
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:22,760
Speaker 1: that dog. But how could you not panicky? Doug Martin.

766
00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 1: Michael summed it up perfectly earlier. There's been a couple

767
00:36:25,080 --> 00:36:27,239
Speaker 1: of running backs out there for Tampa Bay who have

768
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:29,600
Speaker 1: gone out and played. All of them have looked better

769
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:32,080
Speaker 1: than Doug Martin, who is not a la. All of them,

770
00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:35,799
Speaker 1: everybody who ran a ball for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers

771
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,080
Speaker 1: this season has looked better than it's gonna be easy

772
00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:40,520
Speaker 1: to find the video of Doug Martin not being able

773
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:42,200
Speaker 1: to do much of anything, because all right, you know,

774
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:44,680
Speaker 1: this one's a tough matchup against the Panthers. But even

775
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:46,920
Speaker 1: when you go back into the preseason, didn't show a

776
00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:49,000
Speaker 1: lot of bursts, didn't show a lot of great moves

777
00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:50,520
Speaker 1: that we had come to expect from him that we

778
00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:53,600
Speaker 1: saw during his rookie year, and it seems like they're

779
00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:56,080
Speaker 1: just forcing it to him. I think a fantasy enthusiast,

780
00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:58,000
Speaker 1: we just thought this was gonna be a perfect situation

781
00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:00,279
Speaker 1: with Lovey Smith, with Jeff Pepford, as you were saying

782
00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:02,160
Speaker 1: money that they were just going to run the ball Ton.

783
00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:04,759
Speaker 1: But it's been one of those situations just hasn't worked out.

784
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:08,840
Speaker 1: I am going to submit to the people a panic situation.

785
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:11,040
Speaker 1: And I don't know if anybody was higher on Toby

786
00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:14,480
Speaker 1: Garrhart before the season. Then this guy the the state

787
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:17,080
Speaker 1: of California's all time leading rusher as a high school player,

788
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:19,640
Speaker 1: a man that made Stanford really what it is with

789
00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:22,920
Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh, and I suspected that Gus Bradley was going

790
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,440
Speaker 1: to take that formula that Pete Carroll used in Seattle

791
00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:28,560
Speaker 1: bring it to Jacksonville, and there's no question he wants to. Unfortunately,

792
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:31,640
Speaker 1: the run blocking in Jacksonville has been brutal. There are

793
00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:33,799
Speaker 1: no holes for Toby Gearhard to get through. The team

794
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:35,920
Speaker 1: falls behind routine lee even though they had that four

795
00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:39,120
Speaker 1: team point lead against the Eagles, and they start throwing

796
00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:41,040
Speaker 1: the ball around and it has been nothing but a

797
00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:43,920
Speaker 1: hot mass. You see sub three yards per carry. And

798
00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:47,040
Speaker 1: I am certainly panicking on Toby Gerhard. He is a

799
00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:51,400
Speaker 1: flex slash. Only play him if I absolutely have to

800
00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:54,760
Speaker 1: right now until he can absolutely show me is something.

801
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:56,759
Speaker 1: Is it bad? If I say I told you so,

802
00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:01,760
Speaker 1: is that bad? Okay? It is like kicking a little

803
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:04,480
Speaker 1: It's only two weeks, so I'm not dropping him. I'm

804
00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:06,440
Speaker 1: not gonna trade him to somebody that's looking to buy low.

805
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:08,120
Speaker 1: But he's not going to be in my lineup for

806
00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:14,200
Speaker 1: and he's just every single Let's go to the wide

807
00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:19,000
Speaker 1: receiver position. Pierre Garson gal Song, don't don't panic on

808
00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:20,960
Speaker 1: Pierre gal Soon. And I think the good reason why

809
00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,239
Speaker 1: is because Kirk Cousin is the quarterback. I think with

810
00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 1: r G three this would have been a little different.

811
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,680
Speaker 1: I might have said panic because I don't know that

812
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:31,040
Speaker 1: RG three really was trusting what Jay Gruden was putting

813
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:32,680
Speaker 1: in place. There's a lot of stuff going on with

814
00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:34,440
Speaker 1: that offensive line. But here's what I know about a

815
00:38:34,520 --> 00:38:36,799
Speaker 1: young quarterback and a guy who hasn't gotten a lot

816
00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:39,640
Speaker 1: of reps. He's going to trust whatever system because he

817
00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:41,879
Speaker 1: hasn't had that opportunity to go out there and make

818
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:43,480
Speaker 1: shift and do a lot of his own thing. So

819
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:46,120
Speaker 1: he's very young and very fresh, so he's going to

820
00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:49,200
Speaker 1: depend on his wide receivers. To other wide receiver in

821
00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:52,359
Speaker 1: Pierre Garson, he's gonna he's gonna trust his tight end.

822
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:54,719
Speaker 1: So he's gonna do everything the coach asked him to do.

823
00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 1: And that's what we call an obedient quarterback. Kirk Cousin

824
00:38:57,320 --> 00:39:00,880
Speaker 1: will get Pierre Garson going in this following way, obedient quarterback.

825
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:05,400
Speaker 1: Obedient that are are an obedient quarterbacks? The tight end position,

826
00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:07,319
Speaker 1: it's I mean, you want to talk about a tough

827
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:09,799
Speaker 1: position to manage, and when you have a big name

828
00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:12,720
Speaker 1: and he's not performing, you have a sense of panic.

829
00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:15,640
Speaker 1: Perhaps that comes over you. So to the Star, let's

830
00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:17,760
Speaker 1: go to Dallas. Let's go to America's team and Jason Witten,

831
00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 1: who really has been a model of consistency at the

832
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:22,000
Speaker 1: position his full career. And really, guys, unless you have

833
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:25,239
Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham or Julius Thomas, I mean we can't even

834
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:26,879
Speaker 1: put Rob Gronkowski in there because he had a bad

835
00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:29,320
Speaker 1: game last week. Tight Ends just don't produce big numbers

836
00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:31,839
Speaker 1: weekend and week out. It doesn't happen outside of maybe

837
00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:34,560
Speaker 1: two or three guys. And Witten is no different. If

838
00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:36,879
Speaker 1: you look at his numbers last year. He certainly had

839
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,279
Speaker 1: some good games, but he also had some games that

840
00:39:39,360 --> 00:39:42,640
Speaker 1: were stinkers, and especially on the road, Witten seems to struggle.

841
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:44,959
Speaker 1: This week. They're playing in Sant Louis against the Rams.

842
00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:47,600
Speaker 1: If you picked up delanney Walker, for example, I play

843
00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:50,400
Speaker 1: him in bench wittin But I'm not panicking because at

844
00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:52,799
Speaker 1: some point he's gonna put up good numbers and you're

845
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:56,040
Speaker 1: gonna be fine starting Jason Witten, and really your alternatives

846
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:58,560
Speaker 1: are thin. As you said, the Titan position is really

847
00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:00,560
Speaker 1: really tough this year. And I mean, at a non

848
00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:06,680
Speaker 1: fantasy point here and I have the same birthday, there's

849
00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:10,719
Speaker 1: too much in that case. Will I'm gonna I'm gonna

850
00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:14,400
Speaker 1: go panic on v Jacks, Vincent Jackson in Tampa, and

851
00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:17,240
Speaker 1: I don't want to discount Josh McCown as a starting

852
00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:20,799
Speaker 1: quarterback in Tampa. Just yes, But you have to ask

853
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:22,680
Speaker 1: whether or not it was the system and the fact

854
00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:25,600
Speaker 1: that Jimmy Clawson has looked great in the preseason, that

855
00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:28,720
Speaker 1: Jake Butler is experiencing the highest highs of his NFL

856
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:32,640
Speaker 1: career under Mark Tressman. And Josh McCown is in Tampa

857
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:35,719
Speaker 1: with Lovey Smith, who always struggled to get the offense going.

858
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:38,960
Speaker 1: Defense great, offense not so great now. I guess, just

859
00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:41,719
Speaker 1: to temper my panic, I would point out that he

860
00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:43,759
Speaker 1: is facing that the Bucks have faced two of the

861
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:46,400
Speaker 1: best pass rushing teams in the NFL and the Panthers

862
00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:48,839
Speaker 1: in the St. Louis Rams through two weeks. But boy,

863
00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:51,600
Speaker 1: just eyeball test, haven't watched some Josh McCown this year.

864
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 1: I am certainly a little bit nervous about him being

865
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:56,719
Speaker 1: able to get that ball downfield to Mike Evans or

866
00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:02,719
Speaker 1: Journeman quarterback. First, give him two more weeks in the

867
00:41:02,800 --> 00:41:05,200
Speaker 1: in the quarter of give them, give him a little

868
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:07,879
Speaker 1: bit more time. I'm not gonna trade Vincent Jackson. I'm

869
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:11,160
Speaker 1: just again, like Toby Gerhardt Flex, maybe bench if I've

870
00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:13,759
Speaker 1: got some better look at options right now, let's let's

871
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,440
Speaker 1: let's see how about Victor Cruz. Began number one one

872
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:20,520
Speaker 1: straight up with Victor. I'm sorry, but there's just a

873
00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:22,520
Speaker 1: lot of things not going right with the New York

874
00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:24,920
Speaker 1: Giants right now, and a big part of its stems

875
00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:28,160
Speaker 1: from Eli Manning. Now, we made light of Hakim Nick's

876
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:31,120
Speaker 1: going on his touchdown strike last year, but Victor Cruz

877
00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:33,360
Speaker 1: has gone a long stretch without a touchdown. Two. And

878
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:35,200
Speaker 1: the most troubling thing to me is that when they

879
00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:37,479
Speaker 1: get near the goal line, Eli is looking for Larry

880
00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:40,080
Speaker 1: Donal and he's looking for Reuben Randall. He doesn't seem

881
00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:42,440
Speaker 1: to be looking for Victor Cruz. So that to me

882
00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:45,560
Speaker 1: shows that this could be a long term trend. And

883
00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:47,560
Speaker 1: I just don't like the situation in New York. Eli

884
00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:50,640
Speaker 1: is throwing the ball. They're still working through the new

885
00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:54,319
Speaker 1: offense there, and there's a I'm not again it's been

886
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:55,759
Speaker 1: I'm out a panic, I like, not like getting a

887
00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:58,239
Speaker 1: panick in here. You know, people freaking out. Three. I'm

888
00:41:58,239 --> 00:42:00,759
Speaker 1: not gonna drop him, but I'm not starting no, And look,

889
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:02,800
Speaker 1: if you feel like, if you feel differently, go ahead

890
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:06,360
Speaker 1: and make me an offer, make me I don't want already,

891
00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:08,239
Speaker 1: I already know what's going on over there. Yeah, I

892
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:10,640
Speaker 1: remember that. I do remember that. It's a welch over here,

893
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:13,160
Speaker 1: all right, it's coming up next. It's never easy to

894
00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:14,759
Speaker 1: kick up fagger to the curve, but there is no

895
00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:17,800
Speaker 1: room for remorse if you want to be a fantasy champion.

896
00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:20,239
Speaker 1: We're telling you which players you need to cut when

897
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:28,400
Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Live returns Trump Welcome back to NFL Fantasy Live.

898
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:30,960
Speaker 1: Mat Money Smith here with the guys. Time to talk

899
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:33,600
Speaker 1: about players to drop, because you gotta drop somebody to

900
00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:35,799
Speaker 1: make room for a waiver wire pick up. And there's

901
00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:37,960
Speaker 1: a lot of fantasy gold on that waiver wire this week. Fat,

902
00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:39,840
Speaker 1: So what do we got? You know what? I'm cutting

903
00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:42,040
Speaker 1: shipped with r G three. I'm cutting bad on him

904
00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:44,480
Speaker 1: because he is I don't know that he's going to

905
00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:46,840
Speaker 1: come back anytime. Student when he does, he's no guarantee

906
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:49,879
Speaker 1: to get that starting job back. Her cousins looks pretty

907
00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:53,239
Speaker 1: good there against the Jaguar, so I liked him coming

908
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:56,560
Speaker 1: into the season, like running quarterback. Admitting my mistake. I'm

909
00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:59,680
Speaker 1: cutting r G three alright, high expectations for a rookie

910
00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:02,800
Speaker 1: back their rank. But it's time to part ways with

911
00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:04,800
Speaker 1: Bishop Sankey. There's too many running backs out there on

912
00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:07,480
Speaker 1: the waiver wire who are actually going to play this week.

913
00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:10,000
Speaker 1: You cannot afford the luxury of hoping that this rookie

914
00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:12,840
Speaker 1: from Washington is gonna come on and make a fantasy

915
00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:15,880
Speaker 1: impact this season. Show. It's time to sail on from

916
00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:19,680
Speaker 1: Bishop Sanky. Hey, now let's keep the ship thing going there, Marcus,

917
00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:22,719
Speaker 1: we are getting off the Danny Amondola ship. Remember we

918
00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:24,960
Speaker 1: thought he was gonna be the new replacement for West Welker.

919
00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:26,920
Speaker 1: That doesn't happened. We're still waiting on him to be

920
00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:29,880
Speaker 1: a part of this Patriots offense. Tom Brady has struggled,

921
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:32,680
Speaker 1: but when he's completing passes to Julian Edelman there to

922
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:35,480
Speaker 1: Rob Gronkowski, you worry about whether Aaron Dobson or Kimball

923
00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:37,759
Speaker 1: Tompkins gets in there. I'm done with amud Olson. You're

924
00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:43,880
Speaker 1: making him walk the plank bridge too far. One. You know,

925
00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:46,560
Speaker 1: I actually had this decision in one of my other leagues,

926
00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:48,680
Speaker 1: and I had to get rid of Brian Hartline. I

927
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:51,359
Speaker 1: end up picking up Josh Gordon just because I'd rather

928
00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:53,160
Speaker 1: wait on net. You look at the last couple of

929
00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:56,920
Speaker 1: games for less than four point I'm dropping him like

930
00:43:56,960 --> 00:44:02,279
Speaker 1: I dropped that ball. You know what ship he was on, right, Loveline,

931
00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:06,440
Speaker 1: it's for us today. Be sure to tune in tomorrow

932
00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:09,440
Speaker 1: for fave starts and sits per week three. That's Wednesday

933
00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:11,880
Speaker 1: at four Eastern on NFL Now and five Eastern on

934
00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:13,680
