I am Greg Sussman. What's going on, 0:01:12.760 --> 0:01:16.679 Buddy Gray? We got one game in the books already 0:01:16.680 --> 0:01:19.039 for Week six, although I guess you can't really call 0:01:19.120 --> 0:01:22.400 it a game. It's on the final outcome. Have you 0:01:22.480 --> 0:01:25.080 thought about converting from being a Giants fan? Yeah? Thursday 0:01:25.120 --> 0:01:27.720 Night football not great, not great for not great for 0:01:27.760 --> 0:01:30.120 the Giants and Eagles back on Thursday Night. We're not 0:01:30.200 --> 0:01:32.360 here to talk about Thursday night. We're here to talk 0:01:32.400 --> 0:01:39.119 about the games on Sunday, all right, absolutely, n you're 0:01:39.160 --> 0:01:41.360 just getting away from it, dude. It was Thursday night, 0:01:41.520 --> 0:01:43.479 thurs Night football. It's in the past already. So it's 0:01:43.480 --> 0:01:46.959 in the past. It isn't the past, not it is. 0:01:47.120 --> 0:01:50.720 I mean, look, actually you're correct. It was any other 0:01:50.720 --> 0:01:52.800 game you might want to, might want to talk about 0:01:52.840 --> 0:01:55.240 a little bit, Probably not because it was Thursday Night football. 0:01:55.320 --> 0:02:01.040 We are talking Sunday. So let's get to it, all right, um, 0:02:01.080 --> 0:02:03.840 and all your lineup questions, all your start ship questions, 0:02:04.080 --> 0:02:06.400 we are going to do it all over the next 0:02:06.480 --> 0:02:11.400 hour here on the Fantasy Sports Network. So, Frank, the 0:02:11.400 --> 0:02:14.919 the biggest question that I have is why did you 0:02:15.000 --> 0:02:17.200 rank Eli Manning number nineteen in your rankings this week? 0:02:17.200 --> 0:02:18.919 When I told you not to do that. I thought 0:02:18.919 --> 0:02:20.760 we were talking about Sunday's games. We alreay talking about 0:02:20.760 --> 0:02:23.280 some of the games that Eli Manning is in the past. 0:02:23.360 --> 0:02:25.800 I'm just I'm just Thursday night football. I'm just pointing 0:02:25.840 --> 0:02:29.359 out as you just you know, I just want to 0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:31.760 talk about Thursday Night. I bring up Thursday Night. You 0:02:31.760 --> 0:02:33.720 say no, let's move on to Sunday, and then you 0:02:33.720 --> 0:02:35.480 start talking about He was just pointing something at in 0:02:35.520 --> 0:02:38.520 your rankings. I noticed the way to attack the Eagles 0:02:38.520 --> 0:02:41.040 is through the air. And apparently the Giants didn't get 0:02:41.040 --> 0:02:43.480 the memo. What did Gregg tell you? You don't take 0:02:43.520 --> 0:02:47.519 bads players ran them. The Giants thought that the way 0:02:47.520 --> 0:02:50.520 to beat the Eagles was you know, three down, three pad, 0:02:50.639 --> 0:02:53.720 three R checkdowns, which is what they do every single week. Right. Yeah, 0:02:53.800 --> 0:02:55.720 and for some reason you thought this would be different 0:02:56.320 --> 0:02:58.799 because the way to beat the Eagles is through the air. 0:02:58.880 --> 0:03:01.880 The Giants don't care about that. Well they should. It's 0:03:01.919 --> 0:03:05.239 not my fault. Stupid of you. I rank players according 0:03:05.280 --> 0:03:09.720 to you know, the deficiencies of opposing defenses. The deficiency 0:03:09.760 --> 0:03:13.600 of the Eagles defense is their past defense that Eli 0:03:13.639 --> 0:03:15.200 Manning and I don't even have them ranked that high, 0:03:15.200 --> 0:03:18.040 had him rank nineteen too high. You can you can 0:03:18.080 --> 0:03:20.360 continue to rank players by opposing defenses, or you can 0:03:20.440 --> 0:03:24.000 rank players based on their own ability, which is poor. 0:03:24.160 --> 0:03:26.920 It's normally a combination of both. Okay, if you look 0:03:26.919 --> 0:03:28.880 at the players that are ranked behind them, Derek Carr, 0:03:28.919 --> 0:03:31.519 Case Keenum c Jave, bethro those are all bad quarterbacks 0:03:31.520 --> 0:03:35.160 to not the truth. Me and mitche D Whisky let 0:03:35.200 --> 0:03:36.920 me getting of the Bears. That's exactly where I wanted 0:03:36.960 --> 0:03:38.440 to start, and that's why I actually brought up Elio 0:03:38.440 --> 0:03:40.640 at number nineteen because I wanted to talk about Drabinsky 0:03:40.680 --> 0:03:43.960 at number twenty. Last time we saw Mitchell Drubisky and 0:03:44.000 --> 0:03:47.480 the Bears, they threw six touchdowns in a wamping on 0:03:47.520 --> 0:03:50.400 the Tampa Bay Buccaneers before thereby, you couldn't ask for 0:03:50.400 --> 0:03:52.960 a better week going into the bye week on a 0:03:53.000 --> 0:03:58.160 forward momentum, Jerwisky returns at Miami. Frank On on Thursday's program, 0:03:58.320 --> 0:04:01.240 you were talking really pretty highly about Miami getting some 0:04:01.280 --> 0:04:05.440 defensive players back, uh and looking better. Now. One of 0:04:05.440 --> 0:04:08.160 the biggest questions that we are kind of unanswered going 0:04:08.280 --> 0:04:12.040 into this game is Josh Howard and tricoh and and 0:04:12.080 --> 0:04:15.880 how that split will work out now, Tarika Jordan, Josh Howard, 0:04:15.960 --> 0:04:21.159 sorry with that former NBA NBA superstar, Yeah, um, trec 0:04:21.400 --> 0:04:24.320 was unbelievable last time out against Tampa Bay. Jordan Howard 0:04:24.360 --> 0:04:27.000 was pretty much nonexistent, even in a game where they 0:04:27.000 --> 0:04:30.080 were up big from the outset. He has said there's 0:04:30.080 --> 0:04:33.520 nothing to worry about, but Tariko and owners are like, hey, 0:04:33.760 --> 0:04:36.799 do I have something here? You're a torre cohen owner. 0:04:37.800 --> 0:04:42.440 Are you starting him in PPR? He is a flex 0:04:42.520 --> 0:04:46.200 option outside of PPR. I don't think that I'm starting him. Um. 0:04:46.240 --> 0:04:48.240 You know, you want to see this split get back 0:04:48.279 --> 0:04:49.920 to where it was earlier on in the season, where 0:04:50.000 --> 0:04:52.560 Jordan Howard was getting you know, close to twenty touches 0:04:52.600 --> 0:04:55.560 per game. Um, I think that does happen. I think 0:04:55.600 --> 0:04:58.320 what happened in Week four before the bye was very 0:04:58.400 --> 0:05:00.880 game plan specific. They knew that the way to attack 0:05:00.880 --> 0:05:03.240 the Tampa Bay Bucks was through the air, the same 0:05:03.240 --> 0:05:05.040 way that the Giants should have known that that was 0:05:05.080 --> 0:05:08.760 the way to beat the Philadelphia Eagles. But I digress. 0:05:08.800 --> 0:05:11.320 So the Bears um that was their game plan going 0:05:11.440 --> 0:05:13.159 against the Tampa Bay Bucks. They just wanted to attack 0:05:13.200 --> 0:05:14.720 them through the air. They threw the ball a ton 0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:16.760 in that game. We saw a touchdowns to Allen Robinson, 0:05:16.760 --> 0:05:19.120 We saw multiple touchdowns to Taylor Gabriel, We saw a 0:05:19.160 --> 0:05:21.800 touchdown to Trede Burton. We taught Toreco and have by 0:05:21.880 --> 0:05:24.200 far his best game of the season. It just didn't 0:05:24.279 --> 0:05:26.480 want to run the football with Jordan Howard because that 0:05:26.520 --> 0:05:28.320 wasn't part of the game plan, right. I think coming 0:05:28.320 --> 0:05:30.640 out of the bye week, we get back to that 0:05:30.720 --> 0:05:34.160 game plan, and maybe not to the same extent that 0:05:34.200 --> 0:05:36.240 it was early on in the season, but it's not 0:05:36.279 --> 0:05:38.279 going to be the way it was in Week four either. 0:05:38.360 --> 0:05:40.440 So in my opinion, Jordan Howard is a high end, 0:05:41.160 --> 0:05:44.440 high end, too solid middling RB two this week against 0:05:44.440 --> 0:05:48.240 the Dolphins defense, while Trekhen is a flex option in PPR. 0:05:48.680 --> 0:05:51.080 I'm not going to start him in any format outside 0:05:51.080 --> 0:05:55.400 of that though, understandably m understandably so, uh, Jordan Howard 0:05:55.400 --> 0:05:58.120 mid range RV two. And it's interesting because I think 0:05:58.160 --> 0:06:00.800 that you're still trying to buy running back looking for 0:06:00.880 --> 0:06:03.240 running back. I think Jordan Howard really a perfect by 0:06:03.320 --> 0:06:05.280 low opportunity right now because I don't know that the 0:06:05.320 --> 0:06:08.599 value gets lower. Frank, That's true. Yeah, And we mentioned 0:06:08.640 --> 0:06:11.840 that after the previous game that they had in Week four, 0:06:11.960 --> 0:06:14.320 everyone was freaking out. We were getting a bunch of questions, 0:06:14.520 --> 0:06:16.880 what do I do with Jordan Howard. I can't start him, 0:06:16.920 --> 0:06:19.320 I can't cut him, I can't trade him away because 0:06:19.320 --> 0:06:21.839 his value is as lowest. Those are the fantasy owners 0:06:21.880 --> 0:06:24.159 that you want to pray on. We mentioned as well 0:06:24.200 --> 0:06:26.719 earlier on in the week that you know, if you're 0:06:26.760 --> 0:06:28.280 four and one, or if you're five and oh and 0:06:28.320 --> 0:06:31.159 you're sitting pretty These are the fantasy owners in your 0:06:31.200 --> 0:06:32.760 league that you want to pray on. The guys that 0:06:32.800 --> 0:06:35.200 are freaking out about Jordan Howard not getting it done, 0:06:35.560 --> 0:06:37.800 freaking out because Leonard four Nett has them sitting at 0:06:37.800 --> 0:06:39.680 one and four or Dalvin Cook has them sitting at 0:06:39.680 --> 0:06:41.520 one and four. These are the moves that you make 0:06:41.560 --> 0:06:44.720 to buy low on running backs who can potentially have 0:06:44.720 --> 0:06:46.919 have big workloads later on in the season, but to 0:06:47.000 --> 0:06:51.599 this point have either been injured or ineffective. And that's 0:06:51.640 --> 0:06:55.720 where Jordan Howard comes in on the ineffective side. On 0:06:55.760 --> 0:06:58.120 the other side of this game, with the Miami Dolphins, 0:06:58.160 --> 0:07:00.760 Kenny Stills went from somebody everyone was high on in 0:07:00.800 --> 0:07:04.680 the preseason and in the pre draft process too week one, 0:07:04.839 --> 0:07:06.960 making all those owners feel really, really smart. You were 0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:09.720 one of those guys, Frank, but in recent weeks people 0:07:09.760 --> 0:07:12.320 have jumped off the bandwagon when it comes to Kenny Stills. 0:07:12.320 --> 0:07:14.600 Can you start him? I don't want to start anyone 0:07:14.640 --> 0:07:17.560 on the Miami Dolphins, and ideally I wouldn't want to 0:07:17.560 --> 0:07:20.000 start Kenyan Drake either, but I realized that anyone with 0:07:20.600 --> 0:07:23.560 the bye weeks, Well, you know Kenyan Drake is. You know, 0:07:23.840 --> 0:07:25.480 he was drafted to be an RB two. He was 0:07:25.520 --> 0:07:28.160 a third or fourth round pick, so some people might 0:07:28.160 --> 0:07:29.920 have no choice but to get him in the lineup, 0:07:30.240 --> 0:07:32.640 And ideally I wouldn't want to start him, but with 0:07:32.680 --> 0:07:35.120 the bye weeks to mark ingram Alvin Kamara and carry 0:07:35.120 --> 0:07:37.520 on Johnson, you might not have a choice. I currently 0:07:37.560 --> 0:07:40.160 have Kenyan Drake starting in one of my leagues, but 0:07:40.160 --> 0:07:43.000 the Bears have been the number one defense against opposing 0:07:43.040 --> 0:07:45.080 running back so far this year. We just have to 0:07:45.120 --> 0:07:47.600 hope that what we saw in Week five in terms 0:07:47.600 --> 0:07:50.120 of usage with Kenyan Drake and the Miami Dolphins is 0:07:50.160 --> 0:07:51.880 the way that they'll use him moving forward. And I 0:07:51.920 --> 0:07:54.160 know some people might be sitting at home saying, well, 0:07:54.200 --> 0:07:56.240 they only ran him six times, what are you talking about. 0:07:56.320 --> 0:07:58.600 He had eleven targets in that game that was tied 0:07:58.640 --> 0:08:00.840 for a career high. And they've already talked about this 0:08:00.880 --> 0:08:03.680 week about how they want to continue to get Kenyan 0:08:03.720 --> 0:08:06.160 Drake a large number of targets. So maybe he's not 0:08:06.160 --> 0:08:08.080 getting the carries we thought he would, but if he's 0:08:08.120 --> 0:08:10.520 getting six, seven, eight targets or even more than that 0:08:10.760 --> 0:08:13.480 then he becomes a viable option, you know in PPR 0:08:13.560 --> 0:08:16.920 leads as a flex. Ideally, again, I wouldn't want to 0:08:16.920 --> 0:08:19.600 start any of these Dolphins players. I will say I 0:08:19.600 --> 0:08:22.000 think the Dolphins defense, based on how they played and 0:08:22.040 --> 0:08:25.640 getting healthy, I don't trust Mittell Trobinsky. I think that 0:08:25.640 --> 0:08:27.720 they are streams this week if you if you need 0:08:27.760 --> 0:08:31.120 a defense, it's really interesting because the offense. I think 0:08:31.120 --> 0:08:32.679 it's hard to do that. It's hard to pull that 0:08:32.720 --> 0:08:36.800 trigger on Miami despite the health getting clearer and better, 0:08:37.120 --> 0:08:40.800 because that the Chicago offense much of what we speculated 0:08:40.840 --> 0:08:43.080 on before the season began, it looks explosive, like it 0:08:43.120 --> 0:08:45.800 really really really yeah yeah, I think about all the 0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:48.000 other weeks. Mr Trobinsky has not looked that great, to 0:08:48.040 --> 0:08:50.640 be honest, so I agree with either has. The offensive 0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:53.240 line in terms of run blocking hasn't been great. I 0:08:53.240 --> 0:08:55.160 mean that's why we're talking about Jordan Howard as a 0:08:55.240 --> 0:08:57.960 bylow because he hasn't been great. And outside of that 0:08:58.040 --> 0:09:01.839 one game where admittedly Mitchell Key looked like Brett Farve, 0:09:01.920 --> 0:09:04.120 he looked amazing. He was gunsling it all over the 0:09:04.160 --> 0:09:06.520 place on the Bucks defense, I just don't trust that 0:09:06.559 --> 0:09:10.280 because I don't. I'm not buying into Trabisky being that good. 0:09:10.559 --> 0:09:13.240 And that's stalk have the fourth most fantasy points among 0:09:13.280 --> 0:09:16.080 fantasy defenses this year, when I would not have realized 0:09:16.120 --> 0:09:18.040 that really interesting. Okay, So there you go. And that 0:09:18.080 --> 0:09:19.800 coupled with the fact that the I don't trust the 0:09:19.800 --> 0:09:21.880 Bears defense, that's why I think they're a good stream 0:09:21.880 --> 0:09:23.920 this week. All right, I'm gonna go. I'm gonna look 0:09:23.920 --> 0:09:26.600 that up right now. You sold me. I'm in man, 0:09:26.679 --> 0:09:31.200 I'm okay. So that's with Miami and Chicago next game. 0:09:31.280 --> 0:09:33.440 We wanted to get into you where I wanted to 0:09:33.440 --> 0:09:37.000 get into I should say, um, is Cleveland and the 0:09:37.080 --> 0:09:42.160 Los Angeles Chargers your team your favorite team? Probably not, 0:09:42.240 --> 0:09:45.280 but okay, alright, favorite West Coast team for the Chargers. 0:09:45.320 --> 0:09:47.640 I think it's kind of standard, right with Philip Rivers 0:09:47.679 --> 0:09:51.200 and Melvin Gordon and Austin Ekeler's potential flex and and 0:09:51.280 --> 0:09:54.520 Keenan Allen. Right, is there anything that is right below 0:09:54.559 --> 0:09:58.200 the surface here that we're missing? No, you know, I 0:09:58.240 --> 0:10:01.040 have Philip Rivers ranked lower than I normally do. This 0:10:01.080 --> 0:10:03.360 is just a respect factor for the Cleveland Browns defense. 0:10:03.360 --> 0:10:05.480 To this point. They've been great. Their defensive line is 0:10:05.520 --> 0:10:08.840 extremely strong. Obviously Myles Garrett is anchoring that. But Denzel 0:10:08.840 --> 0:10:12.120 Award looks, you know, every much as to be you know, 0:10:12.200 --> 0:10:14.280 a top five pick as he was. You know, he 0:10:14.320 --> 0:10:16.400 was selected there to be the guy, and he's been 0:10:16.440 --> 0:10:18.480 that guy to this point for the Cleveland Brown. So 0:10:18.480 --> 0:10:20.600 their defense all around has been very good. But this 0:10:20.679 --> 0:10:23.040 is more of a respect ranking for Philip Rivers. I 0:10:23.040 --> 0:10:25.000 have him just outside of my top twelve, but if 0:10:25.040 --> 0:10:28.280 you own him, you're likely starting him. Uh, Keenan Allen, 0:10:28.440 --> 0:10:30.319 you're starting him as well. Mike Williams. I think you 0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:32.200 can get away from him. It's been a couple of 0:10:32.200 --> 0:10:34.440 weeks now since we've seen Mike Williams score a touchdown. 0:10:34.720 --> 0:10:36.439 We want to see him start to get used more 0:10:36.440 --> 0:10:38.360 so in the red zone, but that's not happening right now. 0:10:38.520 --> 0:10:40.480 Melvin Gordon the top five running back. I think it's 0:10:40.520 --> 0:10:42.520 kind of status quo for the Chargers. Quick question for 0:10:42.559 --> 0:10:45.760 a friend, would you rather start Seattle against Oakland in 0:10:45.960 --> 0:10:51.199 London or Miami against Chicago? Man? Really like Seattle. The 0:10:51.480 --> 0:10:56.559 London games are always like pitiful gross games. Seattle's defense 0:10:56.640 --> 0:10:59.080 has been much better at home this year. Obviously, they 0:10:59.120 --> 0:11:01.160 always play better at home, and you know this is 0:11:01.160 --> 0:11:02.840 like a neutral site, I guess you can say in 0:11:02.880 --> 0:11:07.080 the London atmosphere. But the Oakland Raiders offense has not 0:11:07.120 --> 0:11:09.640 been terrible to this point. They've been getting down the field. 0:11:09.640 --> 0:11:12.160 There's just not scoring points because you know, they're throwing 0:11:12.200 --> 0:11:13.720 the ball on the one yard line. As if you know, 0:11:13.760 --> 0:11:16.360 teams with Marshall Lynch haven't learned from that in the past. 0:11:16.840 --> 0:11:19.319 I e. The Seattle Seahawks. So I still think that 0:11:19.360 --> 0:11:21.960 the Raider's offense could be formidable here. I'm just not 0:11:22.040 --> 0:11:27.200 really buying into the Bears, to be honest. All right, Okay, 0:11:27.240 --> 0:11:30.360 he'll do it. When the Seahawks have two pick sixes, 0:11:30.360 --> 0:11:32.280 You're gonna kill I am going to You're The text 0:11:32.280 --> 0:11:34.680 messages that you are going to receive are going to 0:11:34.720 --> 0:11:38.640 be deadly. I'm telling you right now. Sorry, I made 0:11:38.679 --> 0:11:42.200 I've officially made the move. There we go and done. Okay. 0:11:42.440 --> 0:11:45.600 On the other side, the Cleveland Browns, Baker Mayfield continues 0:11:46.160 --> 0:11:49.520 his march for this Cleveland Browns team. Carlos Hide in 0:11:49.640 --> 0:11:52.200 his normal spot, Jervis Landry in his normal spot. Are 0:11:52.240 --> 0:11:54.080 you starting David and Joker this week? Are you starting 0:11:54.080 --> 0:11:57.840 Antonio Calawela Man. I think David and Joke is a 0:11:57.840 --> 0:12:00.800 borderline tighten one just based on his usuits, his targets, 0:12:00.840 --> 0:12:02.600 and again, a lot of us don't play in yards 0:12:02.600 --> 0:12:04.679 per target leagues. It's time for him to put up 0:12:04.880 --> 0:12:07.000 or shut up in terms of fantasy production with David 0:12:07.040 --> 0:12:09.320 and Joku. But he's had at least seven targets in 0:12:09.360 --> 0:12:11.360 four out of five games, and he's coming off a 0:12:11.360 --> 0:12:14.160 game where he just had eleven targets with Baker Mayfield 0:12:14.200 --> 0:12:16.720 as his quarterback, something that we've referenced all week. Greg 0:12:16.800 --> 0:12:19.160 Richard Higgins is out for the next couple of weeks 0:12:19.160 --> 0:12:22.199 for the Cleveland Browns. He likes to work those intermediate routes. 0:12:22.200 --> 0:12:24.920 He's more of the possession receiver for Baker Mayfield, so 0:12:24.960 --> 0:12:27.160 David and Jogu can take on that role, or at 0:12:27.240 --> 0:12:29.480 least we're hoping him to do so. He sneaks right 0:12:29.480 --> 0:12:32.480 inside my top twelve in terms of tight ends. Jarvis 0:12:32.600 --> 0:12:34.640 Landry another guy. He's getting a ton of targets and 0:12:34.679 --> 0:12:37.160 we like that usage. He's among the league leaders in 0:12:37.240 --> 0:12:39.600 terms of targets share this year. Greg, but he hasn't 0:12:39.640 --> 0:12:41.840 really done much with those, so we want to see 0:12:41.920 --> 0:12:44.600 Jarvis Landry be more effective in this game. He's still 0:12:44.640 --> 0:12:47.640 a you know, mid range wide receiver to where he's 0:12:47.640 --> 0:12:50.920 been all season long. Um, But you know, the Chargers 0:12:50.960 --> 0:12:53.760 defense a secondary that we expected to be better than 0:12:53.760 --> 0:12:55.960 it has been to this point this year, Greg, in 0:12:56.160 --> 0:12:58.800 five games they have allowed multiple touchdowns. In three of 0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:02.160 five games. They've actually allowed monster games too. Obviously, Week 0:13:02.200 --> 0:13:05.600 one against Patrick Mahomes the four passing touchdowns. In Week 0:13:05.640 --> 0:13:09.160 three against Jared Goff they allowed three passing touchdowns. Granted, 0:13:09.200 --> 0:13:12.320 those are two of the best offenses in the entire NFL. 0:13:12.480 --> 0:13:14.520 I think Baker Mayfield just kind of slides in here 0:13:14.880 --> 0:13:17.160 as a q B two as well. If you're playing 0:13:17.160 --> 0:13:19.319 a super flex league, I think he's viable. But I 0:13:19.320 --> 0:13:22.400 wouldn't be surprised if this game, with the Chargers traveling 0:13:22.440 --> 0:13:25.240 from west coast to east is lower scoring something like 0:13:25.240 --> 0:13:28.160 a seventeen fourteen, maybe like a seventeen. I don't know 0:13:28.200 --> 0:13:29.800 that we get a lot of points scored in this game, Gregg, 0:13:29.880 --> 0:13:31.920 All right, so there you go. So maybe one of 0:13:31.960 --> 0:13:34.160 these two teams could be a streaming defense as well. 0:13:34.200 --> 0:13:37.640 The Browns are a starting defense weekend, week out, regardless 0:13:37.640 --> 0:13:42.320 of matchup. We can weak out, maybe not against the Chiefs. Alright, 0:13:42.360 --> 0:13:44.480 I'm gonna go. We're looking at that. I'm even seven 0:13:44.480 --> 0:13:46.559 times during the show to that here on a Fantasy 0:13:46.600 --> 0:13:50.880 Sports Cleveland available, would rather Cleveland in Miami? Say Cleveland? 0:13:52.000 --> 0:13:54.360 I just I'm buying into the town there. How many 0:13:54.400 --> 0:13:56.760 times you're gonna change your defense every every time we 0:13:56.840 --> 0:13:59.920 talk about a game. So Cleveland faces the Chargers this week. 0:14:00.640 --> 0:14:04.760 Listen to this run though, here's my issue. Tampa Bay 0:14:04.800 --> 0:14:11.040 next week for Cleveland, then Pittsburgh in Pittsburgh, then Casey, 0:14:11.240 --> 0:14:14.760 then Casey at home, Okay, then Atlanta. Just keep the 0:14:16.520 --> 0:14:18.000 You know, the Dolphins and the Browns of the same 0:14:18.080 --> 0:14:20.080 number of Fantasy points is here they're tied for fourth. 0:14:20.520 --> 0:14:22.720 They've both been great, So we'll go on. Then Mikey, 0:14:22.720 --> 0:14:25.440 we'll go to go with Miami. Where's that you have 0:14:25.520 --> 0:14:29.080 that defense? What you said the points per game? How 0:14:29.120 --> 0:14:33.880 in Arizona? Where are they at Arizona? Is they're slightly 0:14:33.960 --> 0:14:37.840 behind the Browns and the Dolphins. They are eight in 0:14:37.880 --> 0:14:41.400 fantasy points? Is here they're only six actually six fantasy 0:14:41.400 --> 0:14:46.000 points behind because they're awesome. There's rounding into form this week. 0:14:46.040 --> 0:14:49.480 The Arizona Cardinals face the Minnesota Vikings, a very tough 0:14:49.560 --> 0:14:53.440 task for that defense. Adam Feeling a you know, top 0:14:53.480 --> 0:14:57.600 receiver in this league. Stefon Diggs doing his thing always, 0:14:57.960 --> 0:15:01.120 But the question becomes, what did do with Dalvin Cook? 0:15:01.360 --> 0:15:04.440 Looks like Dalvin Cook is going to play in this one? 0:15:04.640 --> 0:15:07.360 Did you start him? Frank And you said earlier this week, 0:15:07.680 --> 0:15:09.800 I'd love a see me game, a show me game. 0:15:10.480 --> 0:15:12.720 Will you take that opportunity or do you throw them 0:15:12.720 --> 0:15:14.960 back in the lineup? Yeah, I think it's gonna be 0:15:15.040 --> 0:15:16.800 hard to get away from Dalvin Cook Cook this year, 0:15:16.880 --> 0:15:19.560 especially where he was drafted right that late first early 0:15:19.640 --> 0:15:22.600 second round value on Dalvin Cook. I have him ranked 0:15:22.680 --> 0:15:25.120 right now as my RB nineteen, so he is an 0:15:25.200 --> 0:15:28.040 RB two just really based on this matchup, even if 0:15:28.040 --> 0:15:29.920 he doesn't get the full compliment of snaps in this 0:15:29.960 --> 0:15:32.520 game or usage that he normally would get going up against. 0:15:32.520 --> 0:15:35.920 See Arizona Carls. They've allowed the most fantasy points to 0:15:36.000 --> 0:15:39.520 opposing running backs this season. They've allowed nine total touchdowns 0:15:39.720 --> 0:15:43.240 through five games, six hundred and sixty rushing yards. Obviously, 0:15:43.240 --> 0:15:45.080 the Vikings are favored by ten and a half points 0:15:45.080 --> 0:15:46.760 in this game, so if they're playing with the lead. 0:15:46.840 --> 0:15:49.200 We could see some more Dalvin Cook in this matchup. 0:15:49.400 --> 0:15:51.960 I think if you own Dalvin Cook, you probably can't 0:15:51.960 --> 0:15:54.040 get away from him. Some guys that have ranked just 0:15:54.160 --> 0:15:58.600 ahead Chris Carson, Alfred Morris, Tevin Coleman, that's assuming DeVonta 0:15:58.720 --> 0:16:01.640 Freeman is out, and then and Howard Carlos Hide, Marshall Lynch. 0:16:01.960 --> 0:16:03.280 So if you have one of those guys, you start 0:16:03.280 --> 0:16:06.000 them ahead of Dalvin Cook. But unless you don't, and 0:16:06.000 --> 0:16:07.800 you don't have one of those elite running backs, you're 0:16:07.960 --> 0:16:10.480 probably starting Dalvin Cook. I tend to agree the what 0:16:10.600 --> 0:16:13.960 Dalvin Cook can bring you potentially is going to far 0:16:14.080 --> 0:16:17.200 outweigh anything else that you're probably starting. And as we 0:16:17.240 --> 0:16:19.040 saw that Joe Mixon, and it's a little bit different 0:16:19.040 --> 0:16:21.520 because it's a hamstring, it's a muscle strain rather than 0:16:21.560 --> 0:16:23.920 that meniscus tear. That that surgery that Joe Mixon had, 0:16:24.000 --> 0:16:26.320 Joe Mixon came back and played forty seven snaps, a 0:16:26.440 --> 0:16:28.880 career high on the offensive side of the ball. I 0:16:28.880 --> 0:16:30.960 don't think Dalvin Cook has a career highest snaps. I 0:16:30.960 --> 0:16:34.520 think Minnesota, given that he has previously re injured himself 0:16:34.560 --> 0:16:37.520 with the same injury. I think they're more cautious. But 0:16:38.120 --> 0:16:41.560 if I have Dalvin Cook, I'm most likely starting Dalvin Cook. 0:16:41.680 --> 0:16:43.240 It's clear now. And they pulled him in the second 0:16:43.240 --> 0:16:45.200 half of that Rams game because he was injured, right. 0:16:45.200 --> 0:16:47.800 It wasn't like, oh, we had snaps, this is why 0:16:47.800 --> 0:16:51.400 we sat him. No, he got hurt. I think what 0:16:51.480 --> 0:16:53.240 we saw in that first half, which was a lot 0:16:53.280 --> 0:16:55.280 of Dalvin Cook. If they think he can handle it, 0:16:55.280 --> 0:16:58.400 they're going to give him the ball. So I'm more comfortable. 0:16:58.440 --> 0:17:00.480 I thought I wouldn't be starting it on the other 0:17:00.520 --> 0:17:03.400 side for Arizona Hope. David Johnson scores. Are you're starting? 0:17:03.520 --> 0:17:06.200 You're not starting fish Gerald? He said, did you start? 0:17:06.240 --> 0:17:10.640 Christian Kurt did the Seals. I don't want to start 0:17:10.680 --> 0:17:13.280 anyone outside of David Johnson. Even David Johnson. I'm a 0:17:13.280 --> 0:17:15.239 little bit worried about in this match up, especially if 0:17:15.240 --> 0:17:17.119 they fall behind. We take a break.

We continue going through 0:19:09.240 --> 0:19:13.920 starting and sit him questions in Green Bay. It looks 0:19:14.000 --> 0:19:22.160 like m v asked for one more week, potentially longer. 0:19:22.280 --> 0:19:26.840 I mean, you never know what happens at least, especially 0:19:26.920 --> 0:19:29.639 if he performs once again. You know, it could be 0:19:29.720 --> 0:19:31.680 one of those things where if he develops us for 0:19:31.680 --> 0:19:34.160 a poort with Aaron Rodgers over, you know, these two weeks, 0:19:34.200 --> 0:19:36.720 this two week span, that maybe Aaron Rodgers wizards over 0:19:36.760 --> 0:19:39.760 to MacCarthy like, hey, I want Marcus Valdis Scantley to 0:19:39.840 --> 0:19:41.480 stay in the starting lineup. You just don't know that 0:19:41.560 --> 0:19:45.000 could happen. But assuming that Randall Cobb and Geronimo Allison 0:19:45.040 --> 0:19:48.200 don't go, Marcat Marquez Valdes Scantley has to be viewed 0:19:48.320 --> 0:19:50.840 as a you know, high end wide receiver three at 0:19:50.960 --> 0:19:52.960 least just because who else is they gonna throw the 0:19:53.000 --> 0:19:55.680 ball to. Obviously Davante Adams, Jimmy Graham. But we just 0:19:55.840 --> 0:19:59.840 saw last week that the Hackers cannot run the football 0:19:59.920 --> 0:20:01.840 right now. They haven't been that all that effective at 0:20:01.880 --> 0:20:03.720 doing so. I know that they fell behind in that game, 0:20:04.000 --> 0:20:07.280 but there's still a past first offense, and when they 0:20:07.359 --> 0:20:10.400 are passing, obviously it's you know, whoever that number two 0:20:10.400 --> 0:20:13.119 wide receiver is on the field starting is going to 0:20:13.320 --> 0:20:16.800 have wide receiver at least wide receiver three fantasy upside, 0:20:16.960 --> 0:20:20.080
