Q Take it Away. Our very first 14 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:38,239 Speaker 1: Thursday Night football game of the season kicks off in 15 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,080 Speaker 1: just a few hours right here on NFL Network, and 16 00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:44,240 Speaker 1: we have everything you need to set your rosters before kickoff. 17 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 1: Jason Smith here joined by Adam Rank, and our top 18 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:50,200 Speaker 1: fantasy storylines to watch for tonight. Well, who's gonna catch 19 00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:53,159 Speaker 1: passes for the Patriots? With Amandlah Sudfeld ruled out? Will 20 00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: the Jets continue to rely on Kellen Winslow in the 21 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 1: passing game, and as Gino Smith ready to take the 22 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,200 Speaker 1: next step to be your relo and fantasy quarterback. All 23 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 1: major storylines we're tracking today. Now, let's get to the 24 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:06,120 Speaker 1: latest injury report with just a few hours left until kickoff, 25 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 1: and I'm glad we had a few hours because it's 26 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 1: a pretty big injury report. Of course, the big news 27 00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 1: coming late last night Mark Sanchez likely out for the 28 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 1: season through to that shoulder injury right now, according to 29 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,039 Speaker 1: our own Ian Rapp report and Albert Breer, he's going 30 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 1: to push surgery off for a bit, try to rehab. 31 00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 1: But this is Geno Smith's job, and we'll get to 32 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 1: him in a second. But even though Sanchez has out 33 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 1: Adam Rank, you take a look at Stephen Ridley, Sudfeld, 34 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 1: Dops and Amndola, bron Kowski, Verreen, all these guys, most 35 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 1: of these guys around you're playing the slot tonight, New England. Well, 36 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:35,319 Speaker 1: don't sell myself short. I was pretty good. You know. 37 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 1: There's a lot that was said in the preseason about 38 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,199 Speaker 1: all the targets that Tom Brady was missing from last 39 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,479 Speaker 1: year to this year. Well, just week to week twenty two, 40 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 1: of his fifty two targets from last week are not 41 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: playing tonight? All right? So who passes the Thursday night tests? 42 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: Who are these players that you have to make a 43 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 1: decision on. Obviously you're playing Tom Brady in this game, 44 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 1: You're playing Stephen Ridley in this game with no Shane Vereen. 45 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 1: But what other players can you put in your starting 46 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,080 Speaker 1: line up? The first we're gonna talk about is Julian Edelman, 47 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 1: who looked to be very comfortable in the offense last 48 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 1: week break? Can you playing him tonight? He looked good 49 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 1: and probably there any other circumstance, but a Thursday night 50 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 1: I would play. But I am gonna sit Julian Edelman. 51 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,959 Speaker 1: Everybody's chasing the fantasy points. They're looking at two touchdowns 52 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: last week against the Buffalo Bills, but realize those points 53 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 1: don't count this week. He's going up against the Jets 54 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 1: who have Antonio Carimardi. And because Julian Edelman is the 55 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: only known offensive weapon for the Patriots, who do you 56 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 1: think the Jets are gonna key on? Who do you 57 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,239 Speaker 1: think the Jets are gonna try to shut down? They'll 58 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 1: let Kimberrell Compkins beat him. They're not gonna let Julian 59 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: Edelman beat him. See I wish we could carry Fantasy 60 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 1: points over. That would be first. It would be awesome. 61 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: How about Kimberrell Tompkins. He had four team targets in 62 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 1: Week one, didn't result in a lot of catches, but 63 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: still he saw the attention. He's a He's a nice 64 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 1: option going forward. But again, on Thursday night, you want 65 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: to go with tried and true players. You don't want 66 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 1: to be rolling the dice unless you're in a severe 67 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: handicap to where you have to play somebody like Tompkins. 68 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 1: I'm looking at other spots on the waiver. I'd rather 69 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: play Kenny Stills from New Orleans. I would rather play 70 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,639 Speaker 1: Harry Douglas if he can go. There's other options out there. 71 00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:08,359 Speaker 1: I don't want to risk it with a rookie who 72 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: last week proved that he couldn't do it. So not 73 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 1: many options with the Patriots outside of Brady and Ridley. 74 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: How about the New York Jets. We thought Chris Ivory 75 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 1: was going to be a breakout running back, but all 76 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 1: Powell could be a bye week replacement. I don't know 77 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: you can play either. If Freeman McNeil was starting for 78 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 1: the Jets. I might be able to play him, you might. 79 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: I don't know that you can trust either one of 80 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:27,359 Speaker 1: these Jets running backs. And I don't want to give 81 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: up on Chris Ivory jest yet. There's gonna be an 82 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: opportunity for him later in the season to come out 83 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 1: and be that number one running back that we all 84 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: expected him to be. It's not gonna be Thursday night 85 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: against the Patriots. Do not play and do not expect. 86 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 1: It's too much risk. I understand we have a lull 87 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 1: in running back production, but you can't risk it this this, 88 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: this earlier. Think they'll risk it all right? Well, speaking 89 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 1: of risk, Kelen Winslow, who misses one practice of week 90 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: so we can get better. He's the jets best fantasy player, 91 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 1: especially when you look about what he did in a 92 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 1: Week one, had a pretty nice week. Can you trust 93 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: him on Thursday night? You can't trust him. I would 94 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 1: not start Kellen Winslow. And one of the big reasons 95 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: why is look at all the tight end production we 96 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 1: got in Week one, Guys like Jerry Cook and Jordan Cameron. 97 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: There were a bunch of guys who seemingly came out 98 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: of nowhere. Unless you were watching NFL Fantasy Live during 99 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: the preseason. But there were guys out there that you 100 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 1: can go and pick up. Don't risk Kevin Winslow on 101 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 1: a Thursday Night. I'm afraid he cat. I don't want 102 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 1: to play around with that. Leave him on your bench, 103 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 1: all right? So that and according to Reis Big Smiles, 104 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 1: who passes our big Thursday night test for look at 105 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 1: the nice weather and how it might affect the Jets 106 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: and the Patriots, we say a lot of NFL Fantasy Live. 107 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: Meteorologist Jim Cossack from ABC four in Salt Lake City, 108 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: please take one step back from your television, Mr Cosack, 109 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 1: how are you or at least the just the volume 110 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 1: doubt Jason, It is a pleasure to be back after 111 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: a little bit of a hiatus last year. But hey, 112 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 1: we're all having fun, right Even when you do laundry outside. 113 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: Now you may be saying, what is going on? But 114 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 1: you know when you do laundry every two three months, 115 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: it piles up on the floor. You gotta scoop that 116 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 1: up in your arms. And when you do so, what 117 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,239 Speaker 1: happens to the laundry. It starts to bubble up. Same 118 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 1: set up in the atmosphere as the winds converge on 119 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 1: our Toronto, Canada coal front, the air is forced up. 120 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: That creates a thunderstorms and call Louis in Foxborough. Now, 121 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,600 Speaker 1: these showers and thunderstorms are running out in advance of 122 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: the main coal front. But hey, listen up, you gotta 123 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 1: dress for that wet weather in Foxborough, Mass. I gotta 124 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,479 Speaker 1: get my new England accent going on here because the 125 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 1: Jets are in town taking on a patriot. That stinks. 126 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: I'll just go back to my normal voice because listen up, guys, 127 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 1: we are talking about problems. Rule number one. It's a 128 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 1: bad hair set up and that's gonna come back and 129 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 1: haunt us. As winds are sustained eighteen out of the 130 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 1: south southwest gust over thirty miles an hour on occasion, 131 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 1: let alone the shower occasional thunderstorm. So only half the 132 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 1: time if you're headed toward the north end zone is 133 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 1: the wind at your back. The other half of the game, 134 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 1: it's fire schmack into her schnaz. You can't kick into 135 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 1: that stuff right there, So you don't pull on Superman's 136 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 1: cape and you don't spit or kick into the wind. 137 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: Now I'm just saying if I have Gaskowski or Folk 138 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:30,160 Speaker 1: on my team, awesome kickers, but I want a kicker 139 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,919 Speaker 1: who could get me fantasy points all game long, not 140 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 1: kicking into the wind for half the game, guys, And 141 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 1: that's gonna screw these guys. Head into that south end 142 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:45,039 Speaker 1: zone as we roll on in through this evening's games, Jason, 143 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: Mr cos, I appreciate it. We'll talk to you borrow. 144 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 1: I'll get a big jump on the weather for the weekend. 145 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: A let's take a look at our projections for Thursday 146 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,159 Speaker 1: night football. Oh, I thought we'd get some laundry stuff 147 00:06:58,160 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 1: on here, but apparently we're done with the laundry. And 148 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:02,359 Speaker 1: here's how Adam and I are projecting things for the 149 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,719 Speaker 1: Jets pretty much in lockstep. Here. You have a bigger 150 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 1: day for Kellen Winslow projected than I do. But still 151 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 1: there's so many Tighten options out there. I can see it. 152 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 1: I do. I can see it because who else is 153 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 1: gonna get it? But again, you're you're risking it on 154 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 1: a Thursday night, so just go with somebody else. How 155 00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: can I do? Here's where we are from New England Patriots, 156 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: kind of closely. We have a you have a bigger 157 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: day than I do for Stephen Ridley, bigger day than 158 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 1: Julian Edelman, although overall though kind of a pedestrian day 159 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 1: for Tom Brady. And and here's the thing, Adam, you know, 160 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: we look at Tom Brady had a pretty good week 161 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 1: Week one. Here's week to both you and I are 162 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 1: projecting low fantasy points for him. Is this just tonight 163 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 1: or is this you looking at a lower season for him? 164 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: We are worried about it going into the season. I 165 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: think he's gonna be able to handle himself once we 166 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 1: start getting a little bit later into the year, But 167 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: for this week, I don't like it. I have a 168 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 1: keeper league where I have him and I have Andrew Luck. 169 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 1: I went with Andrew Luck in my league of record, 170 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: where I also have Tom Brady. I was looking to 171 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: pick up match job on the waiver wire but couldn't 172 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 1: find so I'm gonna have to go with them. Yeah, 173 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: I feel bad for you, Andrew Luckin Top Radio, that's hey, 174 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: Gino Smith. We know he's got the job now for 175 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: the rest of the season, and people who wanted to 176 00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 1: maybe pick him up as a two, now that it's 177 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 1: clear to do that, does he have value enough for 178 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 1: you to pick him up as a two. There were 179 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 1: so many great quarterbacks in week one, you don't have 180 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 1: to risk it on Gino Smith, so do not play him. 181 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 1: There's other guys week to week. You can go with 182 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:25,160 Speaker 1: Matt Shop who I just mentioned, Joe Flacco, Ela. I mean, 183 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:27,240 Speaker 1: there's all these guys out there. Yeah, you can monitor 184 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: Geno Smith through all. If he continues to make plays 185 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 1: with his legs forty seven yards rushing in Game one, 186 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 1: maybe someone to pick up. But monitor him. Don't dump 187 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,679 Speaker 1: your backup just quite yet. Some more news from around 188 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 1: the league to catch you up on Roddy White and 189 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 1: his injury update. We'll get to that in a second 190 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 1: to first. Julio Jones miss practice Wednesday with a knee injury, 191 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 1: joining Roddy White on the injury report update on Roddy White. 192 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,959 Speaker 1: Atlanta Journal Constitution beat writer d or Lando Ledbetter reported 193 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 1: White seemed to be walking fine for the locker room 194 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 1: near the end of the media period, on the way 195 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:57,679 Speaker 1: to a position meeting. Now, he tweeted last week, Look, 196 00:08:57,720 --> 00:08:59,439 Speaker 1: if I don't practice all the week, don't play me. 197 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 1: How do you for seed with Roddy White? Make sure 198 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 1: that you have good options on your bench and Harry 199 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 1: Douglas is a guy who's available on a lot of 200 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:09,200 Speaker 1: waiver wires. Just have him as a backup. If Robbie 201 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 1: white isn't practicing, as he's practice records come out during 202 00:09:12,400 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: the week. Just look if Robbie whitey listen to him. 203 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,680 Speaker 1: He's the one telling us if he doesn't practice, don't 204 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 1: play him. So have Harry Douglas there. Kenny Stills is 205 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: another guy I really like, especially going up against Tampa 206 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 1: Bay this week. You know that Drew Brees is gonna 207 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,559 Speaker 1: take his shots. They scored. They scored close to eighty 208 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 1: points against the Buccaneers in two games last year. So 209 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 1: I like Kenny Stills all right. Larry Fitzgerald limited in 210 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 1: practice with a hamstring injury. One to ten level concern 211 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 1: for Fitzgerald. Little concern for Larry Fitzgerald. It's he's a veteran. 212 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 1: They're gonna give him a little bit of time to 213 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,840 Speaker 1: get right. It's gonna be fine. I love Larry Fitzgerald, 214 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: all right. There we go, no reason to back off 215 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 1: right now. Coming up, see which players we pick up 216 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 1: off the waiver wire and play right away in Week 217 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,679 Speaker 1: two and what stats to expect from the best of 218 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 1: your league's free agents, plus our complete preview of the 219 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 1: week's games is up next. Find out which storylines you 220 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: need to have your eye on as NFL Fantasy Live 221 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: rolls on. If you woke up this morning with a 222 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 1: loss you weren't expecting, Michael Fabian, a change from the 223 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,319 Speaker 1: official score at League HQ is probably to blame. A 224 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford sack in the fourth quarter was changed to 225 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: a negative five yards rush. Stafford loses half a fantasy 226 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 1: point from his Week one Fantasy score. In addition, that 227 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 1: lost sack subtracts two points from the Vikings defense. One 228 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 1: more interesting piece of scoring news, Believe it or not, 229 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 1: nineteen percent of teams that started Peyton Manning lost their 230 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 1: fantasy matchup in Week one. Guys, that's tough to come 231 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: back from. You have you have a forty seven point 232 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: lead at least on Thursday night and you live. You're 233 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 1: probably running your mouth on Friday as well. It didn't 234 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:41,680 Speaker 1: even bother to you. Look at the bottom half of 235 00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 1: your who's in the Celebrity League. Jerry O'Connell had Peyton 236 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 1: Manning and we give six points for passing touchdowns. Jerry Frere, 237 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 1: who's on the show with us tomorrow killed him in 238 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:55,959 Speaker 1: that matchup being pretty good. Well, Frank Reich probably the 239 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 1: owner of a lot of those teams. Week two is 240 00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,440 Speaker 1: officially underway, and we've got our finger on the pulse 241 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:02,840 Speaker 1: of the NFL. There's a lot of storylines we're keeping 242 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: our eye on here because I could have huge fantasy implications. Part, 243 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: what are you watching? Well, I'm watching for the Manning brothers. 244 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 1: I mean, I think that these guys going up against 245 00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 1: each other are gonna put up the same type of 246 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:13,960 Speaker 1: production they had. We already know Peyton Manning what Peyton 247 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 1: man is gonna do. But Eli Manning has a great 248 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: opportunity going up against this Bronco defense that gave up 249 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 1: three and fifty five passing yards, you know, fumbling, and 250 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 1: you know they went through all that. I think now 251 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,839 Speaker 1: Eli Manning has the ability with Hakeen Knicks and Victor 252 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,319 Speaker 1: Cruz to ball out and even Ruben Randall is starting 253 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 1: to step up to a lot of options for Eli Manning. 254 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 1: But still, when you look at all the great quarterbacks 255 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 1: there are right now in in the NFL, I'm not 256 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:41,559 Speaker 1: sure that you can put Eli into your lineup. Well, 257 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: I just you know, you know, you look at his 258 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: numbers in comparison to Peyton Manning, his brother. They have 259 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 1: the same amount of the throws forty two you know 260 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 1: passes and you know complete twenty seven or six three. 261 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:57,839 Speaker 1: They threw four you know, multiple touchdowns, I mean four 262 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 1: seven for five yards. I mean I think that he 263 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 1: has the ability to produce against this defensive That was 264 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 1: a pr move both of a multiple touchdown. And here's 265 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 1: another thing. Signing Brandon Jacobs mean that they're going to 266 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 1: use him in that past protection because that's how they 267 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 1: utilized Brandon Jacobs, using that big body, because we know 268 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: that the younger guys have struggled with it. Alright, get throws. 269 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,559 Speaker 1: Gary Kubiak and Houston has said that Arian Foster will 270 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 1: split time with Ben Tate. Do we really really believe 271 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 1: that that's what I want to see? That's the most 272 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 1: important thing from a fantasy perspective in my opinion, partially 273 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: because I've Aaron farstart one of my fantasy teams. But 274 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 1: this could last maybe a week or two, but I 275 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 1: still firmly believe that once Arian Foster has his football 276 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:41,840 Speaker 1: legs under him, he will be more of a featured 277 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 1: back than Ben take Now, remember a few years ago, 278 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 1: Ben Tate rushed for Homers a thousand yards. You know, 279 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 1: by the way, Harry and Foster were still a top 280 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: five fantasy running back. There's a lot of carriers to 281 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,439 Speaker 1: go around in this offense. I am not worried about 282 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,200 Speaker 1: Arian Foster yet, but I am not expecting him to 283 00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 1: carry a full load for at least another week or two. 284 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put I'm gonna put the three week span on. 285 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 1: It usually takes guys between three or four weeks to 286 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: get back in the football shape. And of course that 287 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 1: is because he didn't play during the preseason, so he's 288 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 1: got to get his football legs underneath them. And Gary 289 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:14,439 Speaker 1: Kubiak studied Shannahannigans. Did he master himself and he was 290 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,959 Speaker 1: the offensive Yes, now right here. Keeping an eye on 291 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 1: Michael Vick. Love Michael Vick Ackbar has been talking about him. 292 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 1: We've been talking about the Seagulls offense going back into 293 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 1: the preseason. I want to see that if Michael Vick 294 00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 1: can keep up this pace, and to be honest, until 295 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 1: I see that he can, until he comes out, I'm 296 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 1: not concerned about it because he's talk he was so fantastic. 297 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:36,959 Speaker 1: Why would you give up on this guy. You see 298 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: you're talking about Eli Manning. Michael Vick is somebody who 299 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 1: has shown in the past that he can carry fantasy 300 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 1: teams to championships, and now it seems like he has 301 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:48,679 Speaker 1: the perfect marriage with Chip Kelly and this offense. So 302 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 1: if you were fortunate enough to pick up Michael Vick, 303 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,600 Speaker 1: I would start him the head of guys like Tony Romo, 304 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 1: I would start Manning Cam Newton even who last week 305 00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 1: you were talking about. We might have poked fun at you, 306 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 1: but I admit, Ackbar, you were right. You were spot 307 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:05,320 Speaker 1: on with Michael Vick. I'm gonna watch this. He's a 308 00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,640 Speaker 1: great start, all right. Well, things are good in Philadelphia, 309 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 1: things not so good in Pittsburgh. I gotta see if 310 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 1: the Steelers are really this bad. They looked horrendous Week one. 311 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 1: They couldn't put any points on the board. They couldn't 312 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 1: run the football. Ben Roethlisberger got sacked repeatedly. Of course, 313 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 1: Markey's Pouncey's injury had a lot to do with that. 314 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 1: Antonio Brown and Emmanuel Sanders both had targets, but they 315 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 1: both gave you less than seventy yards receiving. This could 316 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 1: be the point. They put up another egg Monday night 317 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,720 Speaker 1: against the Cincinnati Bengals, patching. Suddenly you could be playing 318 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: more Jets than you're playing Pittsburg. It's not crazy here. 319 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 1: But the fact of the matter is that Ben Roethlisberger 320 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 1: number one. If you look at his recent history against 321 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 1: the Bengals, it is not good whatsoever from a statistical standpoint. 322 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 1: There's no running backs in Pittsburgh you can trust. Really. 323 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:50,480 Speaker 1: The only guy right now is Antonio Brown as a 324 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 1: two or three. Maybe you slide in Emmanuel Sanders as 325 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 1: a three or a guy that you use on a 326 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 1: bye week for a PPR league, but there's not a 327 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 1: lot of guys to trust there right now. Ed Roethlisberger 328 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 1: seemed to be able to play well behind bad offensive 329 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 1: lines in the past. He's a game you can do 330 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: it now though, Yeah, and there's so many other great options. 331 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:11,960 Speaker 1: You have a quarterback you want to move on from Roethlisberg, 332 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 1: and we're moving on to guys who we think can 333 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 1: bounce back. Maybe the Steelers a bar maybe Cam Newton 334 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 1: can bounce back. That twelve point eight performance point performance 335 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 1: against the Seahawks was it was atrocious. Yeah, it was 336 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 1: really really bad, But when I look at Cam Newton, 337 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 1: I really think he's gonna step out because he's going 338 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 1: against his Buffalo Bills defense that really struggled, but you know, 339 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 1: against not struggled. I want to say they're gonna struggle 340 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 1: against Cam Newton because Cam Newton has the ability to 341 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 1: run against this defense. And when Cam Newton against the Seahawks, 342 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,720 Speaker 1: he was very afraid to throw the deep balls, of 343 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:44,840 Speaker 1: course because he was going up against the legion of boom, 344 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 1: but that secondary. But I think now he opens it 345 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 1: up against this secondary against the Buffalo Bills because he's 346 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 1: also a threat to run and throw the deep ball, 347 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: but he's got to get it past thirty yards. Fas, 348 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 1: how many tweets have you gotten about do I play 349 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 1: Marshaw Lynch? The und people are so freaked out about 350 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 1: him because he had a bad game speak against the Panthers. 351 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: But listen, people come off the ledge. He's playing the 352 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 1: Niners this week. Oh wait, the Niners have a great 353 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 1: run defense. Absolutely, but in his last three games against 354 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 1: the Niners all over a hundred yards rushing. He'll be 355 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 1: fired up for this game. It's in front of the 356 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,040 Speaker 1: home crowd and probably the stadium that has the biggest 357 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,600 Speaker 1: home field advantage of the National Football League. Start Marshawn Lynch, 358 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: guys Lamar Miller at him rank. Everybody started on Week one. 359 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 1: People are panicked right now. I am continuing to start 360 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 1: Lamar Miller and my flex spot. He has a great 361 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 1: matchup this week against the Indianapolis Colts, who allowed the 362 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:36,720 Speaker 1: fifth most points to fantasy running backs last year. And 363 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 1: even if you go back to last week, they gave 364 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 1: up a ton of yards to the Oakland Raiders. Of 365 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 1: course some of those went to Twell prior, but if 366 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:47,120 Speaker 1: you look at the game that Darren McFadden have, Lamar 367 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 1: Miller can come out and have a similar type game. 368 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:53,160 Speaker 1: I Am not gonna be too concerned about not playing 369 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 1: well against the Cleveland Browns. That defense led by Ray 370 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 1: Horne is real good. If he doesn't do it against 371 00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: the Colts, then I can be concerned, all right. Watch 372 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 1: out for David Wilson to everything it's take for him. 373 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 1: This week could be a big bounce back week for 374 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,160 Speaker 1: him coming up. Who's got the better lineup? We're comparing 375 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,359 Speaker 1: and contrasting to help you pick out the players that 376 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 1: could be worth making a trade for and coming off 377 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 1: a monster Week one, Rams tight end Jared Cook will 378 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,400 Speaker 1: join us live see if he thinks I repeat performances 379 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 1: on the docket against the Falcons.

Jared cook sits down with us 468 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:55,159 Speaker 1: Live in just a few minutes. Stick around, drill it 469 00:21:55,359 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 1: and it's caught. Jo gets the touchdown, say a prafic 470 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:09,120 Speaker 1: confidence in his new tight end. Jared's that's that time 471 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 1: by Jared Welcome back to NFL Fantasy Live. The biggest 472 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: week from a tight end of the National Football Week. 473 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,320 Speaker 1: Week one joined us right now, Jared Cook. As you 474 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: saw his two touchdowns and Jared, how many people sent 475 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 1: you the last couple of days too? But it should 476 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:27,399 Speaker 1: have been three. I'll be hearing it every day. But 477 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,480 Speaker 1: they're right, it should have been three. Al right, What 478 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 1: kind of part of the game plan were you going in? Um? 479 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:38,879 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean normal about twenty I guess, but 480 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 1: just the way still happens, the way the game turned out, 481 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:45,359 Speaker 1: and just just kept getting more and more involved. What's 482 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 1: the difference between how you used in Tennessee and how 483 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 1: the Rams are already using you in St. Louis? Well 484 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,639 Speaker 1: is just a different type of offense and Tennessee was 485 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:55,959 Speaker 1: more of a run first, and here we got CoA. 486 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:57,880 Speaker 1: Schottenheimer and he likes to open it up a little 487 00:22:57,880 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 1: bit more, but we still have great back so the 488 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,160 Speaker 1: a little bit more of a mix up. But we're 489 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,879 Speaker 1: such an explosive offense here that how could you not 490 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,160 Speaker 1: take advantage of the speed that we have all around 491 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:09,160 Speaker 1: the field. And you mentioned throwing it more of Sam 492 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:11,439 Speaker 1: Bradford through a thirty eight times in week one? Is 493 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 1: that a trend thirty times going to continue? I sure 494 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 1: do hope so hopefully even more. And you talked about 495 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:22,360 Speaker 1: some of the backs that are coming back. Isaiah Pede returns. 496 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:24,360 Speaker 1: What kind of role is he gonna have being integrated 497 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,639 Speaker 1: back into things? It's gonna be huge. We uh, we 498 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,920 Speaker 1: missed him week one, but for him to come back, 499 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 1: it's gonna give it kind of a mix up in 500 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:37,400 Speaker 1: the running game between him and Daryl Reriginson. We got 501 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,200 Speaker 1: a speed running and then more of a heavy running 502 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 1: with with more speed, So it's gonna be a good 503 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 1: mix up. We need them back. In the passing game, 504 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 1: you've broken out as you saw seven catches hundred forty 505 00:23:47,320 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 1: one yards and those two touchdowns. Somebody else you think 506 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:54,359 Speaker 1: is gonna break out on the team wide receiver wise, Um, 507 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 1: everybody has the ability to von Austin has come in 508 00:23:57,119 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 1: with a strong attitude. Um, Chris Giving is another guy 509 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 1: that I think is gonna be huge this year, and 510 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:07,160 Speaker 1: as well as Austin, Pettis and other tight end lands 511 00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,639 Speaker 1: Kandis as well. I mean, we just have talent, and 512 00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: it's young talent as well across the board, So guys 513 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:17,120 Speaker 1: are still learning and getting better as the weeks go on. Yeah, 514 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: I look forward to talking to Taylon Austin. He'll be 515 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 1: on the show with us on Tuesday. And one of 516 00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:22,240 Speaker 1: the things you said when you signed with the team 517 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:25,160 Speaker 1: you were excited about the defense. Tell us something you've 518 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:26,639 Speaker 1: seen now that you've been there a few months that 519 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 1: not many people know about the defensive side of things. UM. 520 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:33,119 Speaker 1: The defense they played fast. It's the fastest defense that 521 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 1: I've ever played against UM in practice or in the games. 522 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:39,919 Speaker 1: And they flow well to the ball. We led the 523 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 1: league insects last year and hopefully this year they keep 524 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 1: it up, because being part of a good defense only 525 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 1: allows you to have more touches as an offense is 526 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 1: which is what we need. You're getting ready for a 527 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:53,520 Speaker 1: big showdown against the Falcons. Plenty people are projecting a 528 00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 1: track made of forty four game. What kind of game 529 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:59,480 Speaker 1: do you expect to have? Personally? It's gonna be a tough, 530 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,880 Speaker 1: physical game a from the jump, and I really don't 531 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 1: make predictions predictions on my personal game because of the 532 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 1: team sport. And as long as you go out and 533 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,679 Speaker 1: and do the things that you can can control the 534 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 1: things that you can control, and and be the head 535 00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:17,920 Speaker 1: of your assignments, you should be all right. Jared Cook 536 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:19,880 Speaker 1: is the big star at the tight end position Week 537 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:22,040 Speaker 1: one of the NFL. Best of luck on Sunday. We'll 538 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 1: talk to you down the road. Thank you for having 539 00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,400 Speaker 1: me all right, from tight ends to the guys throwing 540 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 1: them the football. Let's say hi to Molly Karen for 541 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:32,040 Speaker 1: more on some quarterbacks. Thank you, Jason. Each week, NFL 542 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 1: dot COM's Greg Rosenthal publishes his QB Index, a power 543 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 1: ranking of each starting quarterback in the NFL. You can 544 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:40,159 Speaker 1: check that out at nfl dot com slash QPI index. 545 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 1: But we thought we'd put our fantasy spin on things 546 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 1: with our Fantasy QB Index. Fab Let's take a look 547 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 1: at your top twelve here. Let's do it, and of 548 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:51,640 Speaker 1: course there's gonna be some familiar names up there. Aaron Rod, 549 00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:55,200 Speaker 1: Here's Drew Brees, Peyton Manning, no brainers, Cam Newton. I 550 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:57,880 Speaker 1: expect him to bounce back and have a very good 551 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:01,680 Speaker 1: game this week against the Buffalo Bills. All right, let's 552 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 1: keep going and look at the next seven through twelve here. Yeah, 553 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,439 Speaker 1: Robert Griffin the third. I like him last week. He 554 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 1: had a good game from a fantasy perspective. And let's 555 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:14,480 Speaker 1: go with Troull Prior here. How about Troll Prior at 556 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 1: number ten. A lot of people may think I'm crazy, 557 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 1: but they thought I was crazy last week and you 558 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 1: were included on that list. Turell Prior last week set 559 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 1: the franchise record for rushing yards by a quarterback. In 560 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:28,719 Speaker 1: a single game. And this is the kid who's got 561 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:30,920 Speaker 1: a great match up against the Jacksonville Jaguars in front 562 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,359 Speaker 1: of the home crowd. He brings a lot of excitement 563 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 1: and better yet, for fantasy owers, he brings rushing yards 564 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 1: and rushing touch start over is this because they're facing 565 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:45,280 Speaker 1: the Jags, it's two points. They're facing the jackson If 566 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 1: he was facing the Irons, he's not going to be 567 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 1: that high. But listen, he runs successfully with the football 568 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:55,680 Speaker 1: and if we've seen any where he is heading, running 569 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 1: quarterbacks are successful. Eli Manning is a low end one 570 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 1: for me. He really is in the Manning Bowl against 571 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 1: the Denver Broncos, a much better defense than the Dallas Cowboys, 572 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 1: and the Cowboys and Giants they always play in shoot 573 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:10,919 Speaker 1: out tok bar. I think this is going to be 574 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,440 Speaker 1: a much tougher game for Eli Manning. You know, say, 575 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 1: I think when I look at you list, you have 576 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,399 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan r G three, I think you put in 577 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,359 Speaker 1: Eli Manning and that number eight spot. You slide r 578 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:22,440 Speaker 1: G three down. Then of course you've gotta have Michael 579 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 1: Vig up there. I think you got him at nine. 580 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:25,919 Speaker 1: I think you put him at that seven spot. But 581 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:29,119 Speaker 1: Eli Manning not making the top twelve. Did He's suddenly 582 00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:31,919 Speaker 1: becoming a Leite fantasy quarter like four fifty points, He's 583 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:38,960 Speaker 1: gonna give you more last Is that why you dropped 584 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,360 Speaker 1: him from from ELI? And yeah, it was great last 585 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:43,680 Speaker 1: week from a fans of respective, but so is Philip Rivers. 586 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 1: He's not moving into my top ten. Wow, TP, you're 587 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 1: high on him? I told you literally. And what about 588 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:52,360 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford a low end one? Yeah, he's a low 589 00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:55,199 Speaker 1: end one. In that matchup against the Arizona Cardinals that 590 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:57,680 Speaker 1: could turn into a shootout. The one thing that has 591 00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:59,520 Speaker 1: me a little bit worried about Stafford and why he's 592 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,400 Speaker 1: not ranked yours, because he's been much better and much 593 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:05,879 Speaker 1: more consistent on his home field than he is on 594 00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,640 Speaker 1: the road. This is the Cardinal home opener. I still 595 00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:10,480 Speaker 1: like Stafford is a low end one. I don't like 596 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:12,920 Speaker 1: him to be a top five quarterback this week. Last 597 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:14,919 Speaker 1: week it was phenomenal. You know, I'm still chipping the 598 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,399 Speaker 1: fact that you have, you know, Michael vick Dala at 599 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: the number nine starting quarterback, what do you want? That's good? 600 00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 1: I get it. But when you look at the ability 601 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 1: and you saw how fast that offense came out. You 602 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 1: know he's gonna get you your rush yards. You know 603 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:29,679 Speaker 1: he's gonna get out there and bombing because they have 604 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 1: a lot of plays being ran I just think they 605 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:33,400 Speaker 1: like this. Yeah, I know you think what I'm just saying. 606 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:35,080 Speaker 1: Give the man his problem. Give him at that number 607 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,359 Speaker 1: seven spot. No, no pun intended, but give him at 608 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 1: that seven spot. Top ten is good enough for vic. 609 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 1: And how about the fact that Chip Kelly says the 610 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 1: offense is going to be even faster. That is going 611 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 1: to be and hard to voit. Alright, great stuff from 612 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:49,120 Speaker 1: you guys. Still to come. Which running back would you 613 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 1: rather have in your flex? Darren McFadden or Ryan Matthews? 614 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 1: Our experts will debate when we come back on NFL 615 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:57,560 Speaker 1: Fantasy Live.

And now we're going to try our hand 626 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 1: as well. Take a look at these two lineups here, 627 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:32,960 Speaker 1: we'll pull those up and uh, guys, when I looked 628 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: at this initially, I'm thinking, Okay, Peyton mann and better quarterback. 629 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 1: But look at on team to some of those running 630 00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 1: backs in receivers. Let's get into this here. Yeah, let's 631 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,640 Speaker 1: start with the quarterback. Is this a no brainer? Peyton 632 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: Manning seven touchdowns last week. Payton Manning is a really 633 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: good quarterback. I would start of each and every week. 634 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 1: What are the good things you have? When you have 635 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 1: Peyton Manning going, you can pretty much count on a 636 00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 1: very good day from him. There's gonna be little to 637 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 1: know inconsistencies. He's gonna throw. He's gonna throw a couple 638 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,520 Speaker 1: of touchdowns here and there. He might not throw seven 639 00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 1: touchdowns each and every week, but he is still gonna 640 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 1: put up a lot of points. I think as long 641 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: as you go into any fantasy week with Peyton Manning, 642 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: you're feeling pretty good. Yeah, obviously, it's a consensus that 643 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 1: Peyton Manning is the better quarterback here. But I don't 644 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 1: think that you turn your nose up against the Cam Newton. 645 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 1: Of course, he gave you twelve point eight points last week, 646 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 1: but I think this is where he pulls out the 647 00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 1: s on his chest and show up against this Bill's defense. 648 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 1: Not a bad start, Lantern. No, No, I'm going. I'm 649 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 1: going with Peyton man I'm just saying, can't turn your 650 00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:34,880 Speaker 1: nose up against him new That's fabulous props on that. 651 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 1: I know you're a big fan of Chip Kelly's offense. 652 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 1: Let's talk about those running backs. How about Lashawn McCoy 653 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 1: against Ryan Matthews. Well, you know, when I look at 654 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,240 Speaker 1: Lashawn McCoy, I'm I'm looking at him and saying, this 655 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:47,320 Speaker 1: offense fits his skill set because Chip Kelly is gonna 656 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 1: spread these guys out, and especially against Chuck excuse me, 657 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,640 Speaker 1: against John Pogonald's defense. I know that you know these 658 00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 1: guys are gonna be coming after him having this fast pursuit. 659 00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 1: But these guys cannot keep up. I don't think there's 660 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:01,560 Speaker 1: anybody in the NFL from a conditioning standpoint, that can 661 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 1: keep up with this offense. So that means You're gonna 662 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 1: see a lot more mental errors. You're gonna see a 663 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:07,920 Speaker 1: lot more gaps and holes being opened up from Lashawn 664 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 1: McCoy to gash defenses like he did in Week one. 665 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 1: And it can't be understated. The Chargers are coming off 666 00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:16,400 Speaker 1: a late Monday night game, flying across the country and 667 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:18,640 Speaker 1: playing that ten am game with tending in out here 668 00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 1: on the West Coast. That's that's very difficult because players 669 00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,800 Speaker 1: are we're creatures of habits, and so all of a 670 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 1: sudden you put us in a new element that can 671 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 1: be very hard and stressful. So you talk about fatigue 672 00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 1: and out of your element. Maybe not on your a game. Now, 673 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,960 Speaker 1: how about Darren McFadden taking on the Jacks. He's against 674 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,520 Speaker 1: Ryan Matthews. Really like Darren McFadden in the flex spot. 675 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 1: We said this all during the preseason that when you're 676 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 1: going to do your drafts, if you can get Darren 677 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 1: McFadden in the flex spot, you should feel very good 678 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 1: about it. He's healthy. Now, if you saw the game 679 00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 1: last week against the colt is very effective, got more 680 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 1: than twelve points for you, and going up against the 681 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 1: Jaguars is not. It's not as easy as a lot 682 00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:56,479 Speaker 1: of people would think that Jaguars are somewhat tough against 683 00:31:56,720 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 1: running backs. But as long as Darren McFadden is out 684 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 1: on the field, you play him each and every week, 685 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 1: and if you got him as a flex guy, he's 686 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 1: a luxury. And here's something else that popped up on film, 687 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 1: the fact that they now have Terrell Prior as their quarterback. 688 00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 1: You're not seeing them really rely on Darren McFadden as 689 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,240 Speaker 1: the go to run. Obviously, he's still gonna run the ball, 690 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,560 Speaker 1: but they're gonna start creating a lot of mismatches with 691 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,800 Speaker 1: the linebackers and run in the running back situation. And 692 00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 1: you saw that when McFadden went out there for that touchdown. 693 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:23,720 Speaker 1: He's going out there on these little will routes. I 694 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:25,440 Speaker 1: think you're gonna see that matchup a lot. You're gonna 695 00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:27,360 Speaker 1: see him catching the ball and running the ball. Let's 696 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:29,720 Speaker 1: move on to the receiver position. We have Reggie Wayne 697 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 1: taking on Duyne bow. I personally think this is kind 698 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:33,640 Speaker 1: of a tough one. You know what, actually this is 699 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:35,320 Speaker 1: not really a tough one. It's going to go to 700 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:38,240 Speaker 1: Reggie because think about Dwayne vow. I mean, when you 701 00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:40,959 Speaker 1: saw Alex Smith, he started to connect with guys like 702 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 1: you know, Donnie Avery and Hemmingway. Those are the guys 703 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 1: who were getting a lot of love, not Dwayne Bowl. 704 00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:47,800 Speaker 1: Whereas when you look at Reggie Wayne in this offense, 705 00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:50,920 Speaker 1: he is being number one wide receiver. There's no fair 706 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 1: dodging when it comes to that. So Andrew Luck is 707 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 1: gonna constantly go to the running game is predicated on 708 00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 1: what they can do in the passing game. In the 709 00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 1: passing game spells Reggie Wayne. You're not wrong. But when 710 00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 1: you look at what the Giants did at that Cowboys 711 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 1: defense last week, I kind of like Dwayne Bow. All right, 712 00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 1: let's take a look at this board and uh so 713 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:11,640 Speaker 1: there you have it by a score of five to four. 714 00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 1: Rank and Act but preferred team too. Yeah, that Reggie 715 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 1: Bush puts it over the top. Plus he's got Colvin 716 00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:21,480 Speaker 1: on this list. How about that? Don't hey look, kickers 717 00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 1: or people to love Phil Dawson. They are that Reggie 718 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:26,959 Speaker 1: Week one performance I think kicked it over top. All right, 719 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 1: that's who's got the better line? It presented by head 720 00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 1: and Shoulders. Still to come, We're taking a look at 721 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: some of the top trending questions on our Fantasy Genius 722 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 1: Will Stick around NFL Fantasy Live is back after this 723 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 1: Wednesday is come and gone. That means your waiver claims 724 00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 1: from week one have gone through. Didn't get everyone you wanted. 725 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 1: No need to fear. We have a few names of 726 00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:47,200 Speaker 1: guys that are still available in almost every league that 727 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:49,960 Speaker 1: deserves a spot on fantasy rosters. First, we'll take a 728 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 1: look at the five most added players in Fantasy this week. 729 00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: Julian Edelman, Joike Bell was a club he finally got 730 00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:59,200 Speaker 1: into at him right. Congratulations to Joike Bell, Julius Thomas 731 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:04,840 Speaker 1: Kellen Wins. I never thought i'd see that again. It's 732 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 1: not two thousand and seven. Leonard Hankerson number five. People 733 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:11,319 Speaker 1: maybe wanting to cut bait on pr garsone. But if 734 00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:13,239 Speaker 1: you don't get one of these guys, it's okay because 735 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:16,400 Speaker 1: there's players available right now in fifty of more of 736 00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 1: NFL dot Com leagues you can go grab right now 737 00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:22,080 Speaker 1: putting your lineup for Sunday fabs. Who's someone you're looking 738 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 1: at you could pick up that you putting your line up. 739 00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:25,840 Speaker 1: I can't believe I'm saying this, but Philip Rivers listen. 740 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:27,800 Speaker 1: He had four touchdowns in the in the opener against 741 00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 1: the Houston Texans. He's got a good matchup this week 742 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:32,319 Speaker 1: against the Philadelphia Eagles, who will, by the way, we 743 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 1: like him in fantasy for their offense. We like him 744 00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 1: in fantasy for their defense or lack thereof as well. 745 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:38,680 Speaker 1: So if you need a quarterback this week, if you're 746 00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 1: not thrilling with your number one, Philip Rivers is available 747 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:44,319 Speaker 1: in a whole lot of NFL dot Com leagues. Is 748 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:46,600 Speaker 1: he someone that you think you can trust as the 749 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:48,719 Speaker 1: season goes on. No, this is not someone that I'm 750 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 1: starting as a number one weekend in a week out 751 00:34:50,760 --> 00:34:53,399 Speaker 1: matchup based option. All Right, For the first time ever, 752 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:56,600 Speaker 1: we're talking Eddie Royal and fantasy value and we like it, 753 00:34:56,920 --> 00:35:00,200 Speaker 1: but incredible better than Fabriano for the exact same since 754 00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:02,600 Speaker 1: he was talking about Eddie Royal one week only. You 755 00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:04,600 Speaker 1: can put him into your lineup because he is gonna 756 00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 1: have what we like to call plenty of opportunities if 757 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:10,440 Speaker 1: the If the Eagles continue at their pace, which we 758 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:12,880 Speaker 1: all believe that they will, the Chargers are gonna win 759 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:15,160 Speaker 1: the time of possession battle. They're gonna be on the 760 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 1: field a lot. And Eddie Royal was targeted at Ton 761 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:22,200 Speaker 1: on Monday night against the Houston Texas. You see right 762 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 1: there him catching touch sounds. We never saw that before. 763 00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:27,439 Speaker 1: Look one more week, I'm going with it, Eddie Royal. 764 00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:29,120 Speaker 1: If you if you've got a guy like Roddy White 765 00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:31,040 Speaker 1: who's injured, this is a good guy to pick up. 766 00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:33,160 Speaker 1: And that's one thing about the Eagles offense. Because you're 767 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:35,080 Speaker 1: gonna be on the field a lot your opponent, they 768 00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:36,960 Speaker 1: have a lot more fantasy value than they did. If 769 00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:38,759 Speaker 1: you're looking to break a tie between a player or not. 770 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:41,040 Speaker 1: If they're playing Agains Philadelphia, you know they're gonna get 771 00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 1: a lot of time. There'll be a lot of points 772 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 1: on the board. The value increases a big way. We 773 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 1: love Kelly and fantasy football both ways. All right now, 774 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,960 Speaker 1: you love Chip Kelly and you love Riley Cooper. I 775 00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:53,839 Speaker 1: absolutely Do you talk about spending a lot of time 776 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 1: on the field, Well, I'll tell you when you're at 777 00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:58,120 Speaker 1: running the offense at the rate that Chip Kelly is 778 00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:01,240 Speaker 1: doing fifty three in this very game in the first half, 779 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:03,000 Speaker 1: I mean that's a lot. So I mean I think 780 00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:05,279 Speaker 1: against the San Diego Chargers, they're gonna be on pace 781 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:07,839 Speaker 1: to run probably close to a hundred plays. I really 782 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,480 Speaker 1: believe that they're gonna go full throttle. Riley Cooper has 783 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 1: to be in the mix as far as getting the ball. 784 00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:14,600 Speaker 1: All the balls can't just go to Deshan Jackson and 785 00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:16,719 Speaker 1: Lashawn McCoy. Riley Cooper is a guy that you want 786 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:18,879 Speaker 1: to pick up and stats because I'm telling you he's 787 00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:21,359 Speaker 1: going to be very productive in his offense. So if 788 00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:23,160 Speaker 1: he doesn't week two, weeks three, because if you can't 789 00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:27,000 Speaker 1: catch balls in this offense. Yeah, you know, he didn't 790 00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 1: have a very good, uh you know, game against in 791 00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:31,719 Speaker 1: this very first week, but he was targeted to him, 792 00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:34,759 Speaker 1: which tells me that as they start to amp things up, 793 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:36,760 Speaker 1: Riley Cooper is going to get a lot of balls 794 00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:38,719 Speaker 1: his way and he'll catch it. Del Fas is an 795 00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:40,880 Speaker 1: NFC East wide receiver. You're pretty high and you can 796 00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:42,799 Speaker 1: go out and get right now. Yeah, Ruben Reynolds not 797 00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:44,719 Speaker 1: not owned in a whole lot of leagues on NFL 798 00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 1: dot com right now. Now Now. This is not someone you're 799 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:48,919 Speaker 1: gonna pick up and start. This is someone you're gonna 800 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:50,600 Speaker 1: pick up and like a bar said, you stash him 801 00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:52,960 Speaker 1: on your roster. And why do you stashimash Well, he's 802 00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,400 Speaker 1: got a very good quarterback in Eli Manning and a 803 00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:58,240 Speaker 1: number two wide receiver and the Key Knicks who tends 804 00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:00,719 Speaker 1: to get injured. And if you keep Nicks ever went 805 00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:03,760 Speaker 1: down with another injury, Ruben Randall would be the hottest 806 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,400 Speaker 1: pick up on the waiver wire and fantasy football, a 807 00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:09,400 Speaker 1: good player to pick up stash. Let's see what happens. 808 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:11,800 Speaker 1: And don't forget a starting running back who fumbles the football, 809 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:16,360 Speaker 1: which means that's more pass all right. Another wide receiver 810 00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:18,719 Speaker 1: rank you like Harry Douglas who had a big Week one. Yeah, 811 00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:21,360 Speaker 1: we're talking insurance here at this point. You're talking about injuries. 812 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:23,640 Speaker 1: The Falcons have had a lot of injuries with Roddy 813 00:37:23,680 --> 00:37:26,560 Speaker 1: White and Julio Jones. So Harry Douglas is the next 814 00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:28,759 Speaker 1: guy in line. If he's available on your team or 815 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,400 Speaker 1: in your league, go ahead and pick him up. He 816 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 1: had four receptions last week with ninety three yards, so 817 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:37,520 Speaker 1: he's putting up the production when he's in there. It's 818 00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:39,440 Speaker 1: not a guy you want to trust. If Roddy White's 819 00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:42,399 Speaker 1: gonna play and he's gonna start and he's practicing, then 820 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:43,880 Speaker 1: of course you moved this guy to the bench. But 821 00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:47,960 Speaker 1: it's almost a handcuff. We're used to handcuffing guys at 822 00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:50,120 Speaker 1: the running back position. We don't do it a lot 823 00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:53,280 Speaker 1: with receivers, but with Julio Jones and Roddy White both heard. 824 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:55,640 Speaker 1: But I say you do a little handcuff. And that's 825 00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:57,520 Speaker 1: a mention Matt Ryan. You look at that first game. 826 00:37:57,520 --> 00:37:59,920 Speaker 1: They threw the ball seventy almost seventy five percent of 827 00:37:59,960 --> 00:38:02,600 Speaker 1: the time. So those balls again, they have to go somewhere. 828 00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:04,359 Speaker 1: Harry Douglas is going to be that guy. If it's 829 00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 1: not Tony Gonzalez, Harry Douglas is gonna and he beats 830 00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:09,400 Speaker 1: his guys off coverage. The reason why Matt Ryan was 831 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:11,200 Speaker 1: targeting him a lot because he was beating his guys 832 00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:13,439 Speaker 1: off the ball. All right, So that's what everybody does. 833 00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:15,720 Speaker 1: You don't get your guys. You see who's been waived, 834 00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:18,080 Speaker 1: who's still available. You can still pick up players all 835 00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 1: the way until Sunday. Time. Now to give back again 836 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:23,600 Speaker 1: to America with some more Fantasy Genius questions, We want 837 00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:26,440 Speaker 1: to ask us something yourself.

You could do so many great things 840 00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:34,200 Speaker 1: at NFL dot Com. Fantasy Genius here's one that came 841 00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:36,759 Speaker 1: in talking about big game hunting. Should I trade Ray 842 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:40,239 Speaker 1: Rice for Calvin Johnson? I already have Trent Richardson and 843 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:42,719 Speaker 1: Darryl Richardson. You can't get Tony Richardson to complete that, 844 00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:44,879 Speaker 1: but they have those two guys, right. Can you make 845 00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:46,920 Speaker 1: that trade? You can make that trade. I would rather 846 00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:49,839 Speaker 1: have Ray Rice. I understand the big name with with 847 00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:53,920 Speaker 1: Calvin Johnson, but you've probably drafted ray Rice ahead of 848 00:38:53,960 --> 00:38:56,000 Speaker 1: Calvin Johnson. I'm just assuming. I don't know what this 849 00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 1: kid did, but Ray Rice is the guy that I want. 850 00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:00,680 Speaker 1: He's your first round draft pick and expect Actually this week, 851 00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:02,920 Speaker 1: he's got a great matchup going up against the Browns. 852 00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:07,600 Speaker 1: He's had at least eighty scrimmage hearts against the Browns 853 00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:09,160 Speaker 1: each and every time he's played. He scored a ton 854 00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:12,719 Speaker 1: of touchdowns against him. I've gotta go Calvin Johnson here. 855 00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:14,400 Speaker 1: I mean, do you really mean to tell me that 856 00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:17,880 Speaker 1: there's somebody on the Arizona Cardinals that could stop Calvin Johnson? 857 00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:21,319 Speaker 1: The man is like six tin. He towers above everything 858 00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,720 Speaker 1: single defensive back out there, and he's a beast to stop. 859 00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:27,840 Speaker 1: I mean, you know what's intimidating. When you line up 860 00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:30,000 Speaker 1: against Calvin Johnson, you know you can't jam him at 861 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:32,279 Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage. You know you can't outrun them, 862 00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:34,239 Speaker 1: so they can just throw the ball, and he's got 863 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:36,279 Speaker 1: major real estate when the ball is in the air. 864 00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:38,319 Speaker 1: Matthew Stafford owes mean, of course he had a bad game. 865 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:41,239 Speaker 1: Want Darrell Richardson to be here? Two Adams, right, I'd 866 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:43,000 Speaker 1: rather have Rice. Yeah, it's not like he said, Oh, 867 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 1: I already have Trent Richardson and C. J. Spiller's I 868 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 1: have Richardson gave you, you know, very pedestrian number. Yeah, 869 00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 1: don't get too crazy. You gotta hold on too Ray Rice. 870 00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:53,480 Speaker 1: Now here's here's an even tougher one from Fantasy Genius. 871 00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:57,840 Speaker 1: Who should I bench Andrew Luck or R G three? Fabs? 872 00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 1: I love Andrew Luck and am saying bench RG three. 873 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 1: I like RG three this week too. But if you 874 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:06,520 Speaker 1: have two quarterbacks like that very similar value, I'm going 875 00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:08,399 Speaker 1: with the guy who's on the home field and who 876 00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:11,080 Speaker 1: plays extremely well on his home field, and that is 877 00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:13,720 Speaker 1: Andrew Luck. And I'll give this, I'll give this question 878 00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 1: or another little bit of advice. Trade one of these guys. 879 00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:19,880 Speaker 1: There's no need to have two superstar quarterbacks on your roster. 880 00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:23,879 Speaker 1: They could trade and improve a weaker part of your team. 881 00:40:23,960 --> 00:40:25,799 Speaker 1: And I'll tell you why. I like that pick two 882 00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:28,920 Speaker 1: with Andrew. Look did you see him showing off his athleticism. 883 00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:31,840 Speaker 1: Everybody looks at Andrew Luxon, think Andrew Luk, think that 884 00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:35,840 Speaker 1: he's not an athletic quarterback. Nobody. We've been talking about 885 00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:38,799 Speaker 1: this for two years now. We keep saying over and 886 00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:42,359 Speaker 1: over again, Andrew Luck at the same combine measurables as 887 00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:44,920 Speaker 1: Cam Newton. The guy can run with the football. He 888 00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:47,319 Speaker 1: just does it judicious lee. He doesn't do it all 889 00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:50,040 Speaker 1: the time. This guy can score rushing touchdowns for you. 890 00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:52,000 Speaker 1: That's why you can and the way you convert that. 891 00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:54,239 Speaker 1: Just because he runs this fast forty time doesn't mean 892 00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:56,600 Speaker 1: that he's always athletic. But Andrew Luck is athletic. He 893 00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:58,600 Speaker 1: can make things happen with this feat. He can see, 894 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:03,120 Speaker 1: oh something broke down. I'm going off like Aaron Rodgers. 895 00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:06,160 Speaker 1: He is so much like But as when it's that 896 00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:08,279 Speaker 1: close to between two guys, it's who do you have 897 00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:10,840 Speaker 1: more confidence? You got because it's a it's a big question. 898 00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:12,319 Speaker 1: Who do you more confidence? Is gonna make it from 899 00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:13,560 Speaker 1: the beginning of the game to the end of the game. 900 00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:16,160 Speaker 1: You're pretty sure Andrews is gonna stay healthy. RG three, 901 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 1: that's always a concern. It's it's a concern. But r 902 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:21,239 Speaker 1: G three is gonna start getting more comfortable. This was 903 00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:24,080 Speaker 1: a guy who did not play in the entire preseason, 904 00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:27,160 Speaker 1: wasn't even practicing. He looked pretty good in that second half. 905 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:29,279 Speaker 1: He's gonna keep building if you have r G three. 906 00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:32,759 Speaker 1: I understand in this particular situation. You know you're talking 907 00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 1: about Luck or r G three. We prefer Andy Luck. 908 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:37,719 Speaker 1: But if you have RG three, if you're counting on 909 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:40,120 Speaker 1: him to be your number one guy, he'll be fine 910 00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:42,560 Speaker 1: for you. All Right, two guys who were disappointing Week one? 911 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 1: Should I trade m j D for Tory Smith? Bar 912 00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:48,520 Speaker 1: Oh boy, Well you know how I feel about this. 913 00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:50,840 Speaker 1: I say, yes, you do, trade m j D for 914 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:52,799 Speaker 1: Tory Smith. I like Tory Smith because he is going 915 00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:54,880 Speaker 1: to be the number one wide receiver there. M j 916 00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:57,440 Speaker 1: D to me is just I don't like the offensive 917 00:41:57,480 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 1: line set up that he has there. I see them. 918 00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:01,680 Speaker 1: He's he's looks a little hesitant getting out there, so 919 00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:03,839 Speaker 1: m j D doesn't It's not gonna have the same 920 00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:05,600 Speaker 1: type of production that we're used to m j D. 921 00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:07,360 Speaker 1: And I know it's very hard to say and swallow 922 00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:09,360 Speaker 1: because people say, you can't say that about m j D. 923 00:42:09,440 --> 00:42:11,840 Speaker 1: He's Maurice Joan Drew. I know his name. I know 924 00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:14,000 Speaker 1: his name is Cecil Shorts. Texting you're saying, hey, you 925 00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:16,279 Speaker 1: didn't say that, And that's the other thing Cecil Shorts there. 926 00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:17,799 Speaker 1: And I think they're gonna rely on the passing a 927 00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:20,040 Speaker 1: bit more. But seriously, Tori Smith is gonna be the 928 00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:22,080 Speaker 1: number one guy and Joe Flackle is gonna get them 929 00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:24,080 Speaker 1: the ball. Here's what worries me though. Look at the 930 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:26,880 Speaker 1: waiver wire right now. What do you gott a running back? Nothing? 931 00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:29,239 Speaker 1: You have to hold on your running backs, especially a 932 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 1: guy who could be a two. I like Tori Smith, 933 00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:34,160 Speaker 1: but there's more value in the running back. You can 934 00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:35,840 Speaker 1: actually find a couple of good wide of receivers on 935 00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:38,240 Speaker 1: the waivers right now. Running backs, it's like a barren 936 00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:40,640 Speaker 1: waste land on the waiver while But what value do 937 00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:42,319 Speaker 1: you have in a running back that has a big 938 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:44,880 Speaker 1: name but no production. There's no value. One game he 939 00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:48,080 Speaker 1: had one bad game Bro game stick Stitch with your 940 00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:52,080 Speaker 1: running backs coming up tomorrow.
