Some of you already 9 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 1: in a big hole if you went up against DeShawn Watson. 10 00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:52,440 Speaker 1: I was worried going into that matchup that Watson would 11 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:55,040 Speaker 1: um would be overshadowed by a running game that I 12 00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:56,920 Speaker 1: thought would be very successful. And the running game was, 13 00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,639 Speaker 1: but Watson went absolutely berserk. I thought they might rest 14 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,360 Speaker 1: him with the chest injury. Didn't matter. My co host today, 15 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:05,039 Speaker 1: Scott Fish, Brian Johnson, Hello, guys, Hey, how's it going 16 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 1: very good?

And let's dive into the 45 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 1: Eagles and the Jaguars, another early Saturday game. I know 46 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 1: some of you got screwed on this deal with Melvin 47 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 1: Gordon last week. Yeah, yeah, just go set your Saturday 48 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: lineup right now for Saturday morning and a clock. Yeah, 49 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: and the alarm clock. I tweeted that to literally set 50 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: because we saw this on Saturday, so like midday Saturday, 51 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,800 Speaker 1: when Melvin Gordon was going to be a game time decision, 52 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 1: I said, look, you're Melvin Gordon owner, it's not crazy 53 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: to set your alarm clock for seven o'clock so you 54 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 1: know if he's in or out, um and that as 55 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 1: it turned out, that would have probably been a good move. 56 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: But I know some of you got burned on this. 57 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: Hopefully that won't be the case here, Scott. Let's jump 58 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 1: into Eagles taking on the Jaguars. Jack for all the 59 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: problems that Jaguars have. Defense is still pretty good and uh, 60 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 1: London is a great place for Bortles, so again, it's 61 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 1: got a good London track Lewis last year. Yeah, but 62 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: I'll start on the eagle side with Wentz in that 63 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: passing game. The Jaguars have been pretty tough, but they 64 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: are missing going to be missing three corner three, three 65 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 1: defensive backs for this one, two of them that didn't 66 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: even make the trip, including a j Bowie boy. Excuse me. Uh, 67 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 1: Wentz has at least two hundred and seventy five yards 68 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 1: and multiple touchdowns in four straight The Jags have held 69 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: everyone but Mahomes under two thirty five. They're barely allowing 70 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: passing yards, but Mahomes had three hundred, Prescott had two touchdowns, 71 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 1: Brady had two touchdowns. I think it's an okay matchup 72 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: for Wentz here. I gave him a B grade in 73 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: the passing game. Jeffrey also gave a B grade. The 74 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:18,280 Speaker 1: Jags allowing the fewest receiving yards and just the second 75 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: fewest receiving touchdowns to wide receivers this year. It's pretty 76 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 1: pretty tough. But since returning from injury, he has at 77 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: least seventy yards and at least one touchdown in three 78 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,839 Speaker 1: of those four games, and he's averaging over ten targets 79 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: a game, seven catches in each. The only dud was 80 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 1: against the Vikings. I think he's going to be solid here. 81 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 1: I I give him a B grade. I very close 82 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 1: to him in A grade. But I think this Jags 83 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: defense still going to be pretty tough C grade for 84 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 1: with all those defensive back injuries. I think that he's 85 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,839 Speaker 1: gonna you know, and the third string against lot corners, 86 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 1: the third string slot corner. I like Nelson game. Yeah. 87 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 1: The only problem is is insanely low, like seven yards 88 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: per catch rate he's got. He's got five games under 89 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,280 Speaker 1: forty five yards and in all those games he had 90 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 1: like four or five six seven catches. You know, it's 91 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 1: that's the problem there. Cole Beasley from the slot a 92 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago had a really good game, so 93 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 1: I did get agg egg RC grade. I think he's 94 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: startable arts A grade. The Jags have held down most 95 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 1: of the tight ends they faced, but allowed Kelsey to 96 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 1: explode on them. The difference, he was the only tight 97 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,839 Speaker 1: end to see over five targets on the Jags. Art's 98 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: is Averagina eleven per game. He's gonna have no trouble. 99 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 1: He's gonna have no trouble at all for a small 100 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 1: Wood and Clement. Uh small Wood is he's starting and 101 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:39,279 Speaker 1: he's out snapping. Clement so and he's getting goal and works. 102 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,600 Speaker 1: So although the Jags are top ten against running backs 103 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:46,720 Speaker 1: this season, they are bottom half in the last three weeks. 104 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,159 Speaker 1: Uh so recently they're not quite as good their number 105 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 1: one against backs in the receiving game. That's tough. I 106 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 1: do like Smallwood for a C grade and Clement for 107 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: a bench grade. Though the last three running backs to 108 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 1: play the Jags all topped eighty seven yards. Right, that's good. 109 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give a caveat there. It took twenty two carries, 110 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 1: and over the last two years, no Eagles back has 111 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:09,039 Speaker 1: had more than eighteen carries. That's the problem. Ya, small 112 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 1: was not going to get that, but he's going to 113 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: get the majority. He's barely startable, but I did give 114 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 1: him se grade. On the Jag side, London, Blake Bortles 115 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: has eight touchdowns in the last three games in London. 116 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:21,840 Speaker 1: The Eagles have a lot of multiple touchdowns and or 117 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 1: three hundred yards to three of the last four quarterbacks 118 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 1: they played. It would be just like the NFL for 119 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: portals to look just dreadful. Then show up for this 120 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: you your Super Bowl champion Eagles, and then have a 121 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 1: big game. Exactly. That's I gave him a C grade 122 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 1: because he could be benched by halftime, or he could 123 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 1: be London Blake Bortles. Uh, Cole I benched killing Cole Westbrook. 124 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: I also benched. His numbers have gone down every week 125 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: since Week four for Cole, four games under forty five 126 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,479 Speaker 1: yards in the last five chart, seven targets out of 127 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: nowhere last week. But he's still bench. We can't trust him. 128 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,360 Speaker 1: I'm giving a SEA grade to Donte Moncrief. Weirdly, Blake 129 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,479 Speaker 1: Bartles has targeted his big receiver, whether it be the 130 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 1: tight end or a big receiver, in most of those 131 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,799 Speaker 1: eight touchdowns in London, and uh, he's a mon Creef 132 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:08,799 Speaker 1: has had thirty three targets in the last four games 133 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 1: over seventy five yards, and three of them kind of 134 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 1: craped the bat against Dallas. But Phil is allowing the 135 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 1: third most receptions and fifth most yards to wide receivers. 136 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,680 Speaker 1: I think mon Creeve is playable here all right. As 137 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 1: for Hide and yelled in I had this flipped, but 138 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna flip it again right here. With reports that 139 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 1: Hyde might see six of the touches, I'm flipping over 140 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 1: to I think I might flip to Bench and both 141 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,679 Speaker 1: honestly until I see what I think you showed against 142 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,239 Speaker 1: the Eagles. I was going to give Hide a bench 143 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: and yelled in a see because through the through the 144 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 1: area the Eagles can be you know, played against. But 145 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 1: I'm just benching now with these new reports that Hides 146 00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 1: canna see more work. Yeah, and for Hide now you can't. 147 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 1: You don't really want to start him against a great 148 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 1: Eagles run defense, maybe the best in the NFL, and 149 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 1: his first game back, we don't know how much the 150 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: playbook even knows and ever what his usage will be. Yeah, 151 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 1: then he gets to buy. Then he gets Leonard for 152 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 1: Net coming back. And this is why I've been saying, 153 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 1: you know, there's a real scenario out there where you 154 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 1: could just drop Hide or try to trade Hide maybe 155 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 1: come now, you know you know that's there? Is that right? 156 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 1: I mean? The Fortnet thing is still a huge, huge 157 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: question mark. And if Fortnette doesn't come back, well, then 158 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 1: Hide becomes a quasi flex player every week. Who knows, 159 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:25,239 Speaker 1: But I gotta believe for net by now after after 160 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 1: two weeks from now, he's got to be ready, right, 161 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 1: you think you'd think Let's move on Brown's taking on 162 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: the Steelers. Brian Um expected a lot more from the 163 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,719 Speaker 1: Browns against a terrible Tampa secondary last week, and now 164 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: they get another bad secondary. Do you feel better about 165 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield this week? And do you think he improves 166 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: upon a mediocre performance last week? Yeah, you would hope. 167 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 1: So these teams didn't meet in Week one with the 168 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,320 Speaker 1: Browns entirely different team. Tyrod Taylor started that game. Carlos 169 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: Hide was on the team. They were also playing in 170 00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,559 Speaker 1: the tail end of a hurricane. Literally that's you never 171 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,240 Speaker 1: think whatever hit Cleveland, but yeah I did. So let's 172 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 1: start with you know, Hide obviously gone. Let's start with 173 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 1: Nick Chub real quick. Hide had twenty two carries in 174 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,839 Speaker 1: that Week one game against pitt Pittsburgh, but since then, 175 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 1: only one other opposing running back has top to eleven 176 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: carries against the Steelers. UH teams are running under thirty 177 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 1: five percent of the time against them. Game scripts do 178 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 1: not favor backs on the ground. Chubb actually had twenty 179 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 1: one yards on three carries in the opener, so if 180 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,680 Speaker 1: you extrapolate that seven yards per carry, he gets fifteen. 181 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 1: But he's only in a flexi level play for me 182 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: because of the volume, it's not gonna be their fifteen 183 00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 1: carries is very ceilings. So just to see for him, Uh, 184 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:34,960 Speaker 1: you think could be a game for Duke Johnson, but 185 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: it is not. He's on the bench. The Steelers have 186 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:38,960 Speaker 1: given up a league low three point five catches and 187 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: only twenty one receiving yards per game to running backs. 188 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 1: Duke Onie Mustard twenty five combo yards in the first 189 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 1: meeting on one catch, so he's on the pine Jarvis 190 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: Landry complete opposite. He is in with an A grade 191 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,079 Speaker 1: fifteen targets in week one. Only Adam Feeland has logged 192 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,680 Speaker 1: more games with at least ten targets and the ten 193 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 1: wide receiver touchdowns the Steelers have allowed, which is a lot, 194 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,439 Speaker 1: six have gone to spot Seavers and Landry had a 195 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 1: great game in the opener, so he's a safe, safe play. 196 00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 1: Antonio Callaway. Though he's on the bench. He's had frying 197 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 1: panhans of late, lots of drops, only two targets last week. 198 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: Just mentioned that Landry saw fifteen targets in the first meeting. 199 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 1: All the other Cleveland wide receivers combined for only eight 200 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 1: targets in that first game. Callaway had just one, So 201 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 1: he's on the bench. But David and Joku another a 202 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 1: for Cleveland. Pittsburgh has allowed the most receptions, the sixth 203 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: most yards, and been tied for the seven most touchdowns 204 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 1: allowed to tight ends. The Ravens tight ends total ten 205 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: catches for ninety nine yards against the Steelers, and Joco 206 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 1: was in a smash spot here this week. I can't 207 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 1: I can't argue that by any means. And then Baker Mayfield, 208 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give him a conservative sea here. But you 209 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 1: love Njoku, you love Landry. Mayfield is startable h posing 210 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks passing forty one times per game against the Steelers, 211 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: So Mayfield will be thrown in this one. Over to 212 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 1: the Steelers side. A lot of good stuff to talk about, 213 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:57,319 Speaker 1: starting with James Conner, who Cleveland steamer the Browns one 214 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:01,320 Speaker 1: for a hundred ninety plus combo yards to touchdown. Uh 215 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 1: No Levy on Bill yet again. And here's one great 216 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: stat I found on Twitter from Graham Barfield. Connor is 217 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 1: averaging over five yards per carry on seventy seventeen point 218 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,640 Speaker 1: five percent of his attempts when facing a stacked box. 219 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 1: Levan Bell is averaging three point two yards per carry 220 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 1: over the last two years when facing stack box stack 221 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 1: box on sevenercent of his carry So basically, Connor is 222 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:24,480 Speaker 1: just as good as Levy on Bill, there's a stead 223 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:26,440 Speaker 1: he wasn't. I I talked to somebody at the Friday 224 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:31,079 Speaker 1: Football Feast yesterday yesterday. Excuse me who was selling Connor 225 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 1: on the cheap because he, you know, he firmly believed 226 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: that Bell is gonna come back and take his job. 227 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 1: I'm like, why would that happen? He's playing every bit 228 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 1: as well, if not better than Bell ever played, So 229 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: why would the team suddenly up end their depth chart? 230 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 1: And if you remember I did that in the past 231 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: when Bill was suspended in D'Angelo Williams was playing very well. 232 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 1: Everyone thought when Bill came back it was gonna be 233 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 1: a timeshare. But nope, Bill, they don't timeshare. No, they 234 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,559 Speaker 1: never timeshare. And Connor's your starter when Bell comes back. 235 00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: Connors a starter for a team that never time sharrees 236 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 1: agreed can today Antonio Brown obviously your starter and your 237 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 1: fans lineup easy A worth mentioning starting quarterback E J. 238 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 1: Gaines is out for Cleveland and free safety da Marius 239 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:11,079 Speaker 1: Randall questionable to play. So easy A for Brown, I'll 240 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 1: give out Juju Smith Schuster a b uh. He will 241 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 1: be facing the latest three names slot cornerback in the NFL, 242 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 1: Brian Body Calhoun. Does he have to change his last 243 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 1: name like Lake Calhoun anymore? But Juju has average seven 244 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 1: catches and a hundred thirty one yards over his last 245 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 1: two against Cleveland. Very safe B grade as uh vans 246 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 1: McDonald will get as well. He missed the first game 247 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 1: between these two teams with Jesse James had sixty yards 248 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 1: in that game. Cleveland has given up the seventh most 249 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 1: catches to tight ends. So Vance is in a good 250 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,440 Speaker 1: spot and Big Ben gets an A at home. That's simple. 251 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 1: This is actually his uh first home game against Cleveland. 252 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 1: Those missed the last two because of injury. But for 253 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,079 Speaker 1: what it's worth, in that last meeting, three seventy nine 254 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 1: and three might be a safe floor for Ben in 255 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:57,440 Speaker 1: this one. Yeah. I like I like that a lot. 256 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 1: I think he I've got him at quarterback number six 257 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:02,719 Speaker 1: six this week. Yeah, I'd like been a lot in 258 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: this game. Uh, let's I'm gonna try to squeeze in 259 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: the Redskins taking on the Giants. Let's start with Adrian Peterson. Um, 260 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 1: I've been I've every week. I'm kind of more and 261 00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 1: more surprised. I not that I thought he wouldn't be good. 262 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 1: I just figured by now we'd be hurt, dinged up 263 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 1: things that have just somehow gone off the rails. Nope, 264 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 1: he's He's been terrific. H New York has given up 265 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 1: a touchdown to a running back in all seven of 266 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 1: their games. One way or now. They're not all rushing 267 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 1: but mostly rushing. They rank eleventh and rushing yards allowed 268 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,840 Speaker 1: eleventh and rushing yards per carry, which is pretty good. 269 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:37,080 Speaker 1: And Chris Thompson's still not right. And even if Chris 270 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: Thompson goes, he's a game time decision. APS got forty 271 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 1: one out of the forty five team rushing attempts the 272 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 1: last few weeks. A beast b great on Adrian. Don't 273 00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 1: forget no more snacks, Harrison. So those nobs. That's a 274 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 1: great point. That's you're absolutely right. That's very fair point, 275 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: by the way, about Matt. About Matt Harrison, our co host. 276 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 1: We should start calling him Snack Harrison with one s. Oh. 277 00:13:56,240 --> 00:14:01,079 Speaker 1: I like that Snack Harrison Harrison. All right, Uh, maybe 278 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:05,559 Speaker 1: it's snap because he's one t snat Harrison. Let's go 279 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 1: to the passing Chris Thompson. Let me just one other 280 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 1: running back mentioned here. I think he might play, but 281 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 1: before the injury, he was trending in the wrong direction. 282 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 1: I'm nervous about starting him here. The Giants pass defense 283 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: broadly has been very good, and they're giving up just 284 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 1: forty three receiving yards through the air two runners. So 285 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: let's just wait and see. On Chris Thompson, I'm seeing 286 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 1: get him dropped in some leagues. This is the wrong 287 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 1: time to drop him. He's coming back, but I don't 288 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 1: want to start him here. Let's go to the passing game. 289 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 1: C grade on Alex Smith. Giants pass defense has been 290 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 1: beating up pretty badly over the last three weeks, but 291 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 1: that was against Cam Newton, Carson Wentzon, Matt Ryan. Those 292 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 1: are elite level quarterbacks. Alex Smith is not playing at 293 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 1: that level, especially with his receivers all banged up. Jamison 294 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 1: Crowder won't play. Paul Richardson's a maybe Elia Apple is 295 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 1: gone and Grant Haley will fill in. Brian, what is 296 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 1: Grant Haley? Yeah, it's just he's just some guy. He's 297 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 1: a he's a thing now, all right, So you'll get 298 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 1: him Grant. I had Alex Smith as a as a 299 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 1: bench before the trade. I've got him as a C 300 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 1: grade right now. Paul Richardson, if he goes, you could 301 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 1: throw a dart here and gamble that he plays in that. 302 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 1: The Giant secondary discombobulated in its first game without Eli Apple. 303 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 1: Apple played one side of the field, So if Grant 304 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 1: Haley is going to play that side, they can just 305 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 1: put Paul Richardson on that side every play if they 306 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 1: want to. They could be way more combobulated without Eli Apple. 307 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 1: It could be additioned by subtraction. That is possible. Actually, 308 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 1: I looked up Eli's uh uh every I looked up 309 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 1: all of his His coverage numbers on Pro Football focuses 310 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 1: are actually pretty good. He was actually having a pretty 311 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: good season. I think he's only given up one touchdown 312 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 1: in his coverage all year. Um. Lastly, Jordan read on 313 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 1: the bench to what a massive disappointment he's been. If 314 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 1: I had told you guys at the beginning of the 315 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 1: season that through eight weeks he had play healthy and 316 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 1: playing every single week. What kind of numbers do you 317 00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 1: think you would have gotten out of Jordan Reed? Way 318 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 1: better ones and far better. Right might be outscoring him 319 00:15:57,560 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: right now, or it's got to be pretty close watch. 320 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 1: I think it is probably pretty close between those guys. 321 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 1: Jordan read right now as we enter a week eight, 322 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 1: has one touchdown two hundred sixty eight yards and by 323 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: the way, that's forty yards of game forty. That's it. 324 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 1: It's been. It's been a disaster for Jordan Reid. We're 325 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 1: gonna put him on the on the bench. The Giants 326 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 1: have been great against tight ends all season. They've given 327 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 1: up just four receptions to the position per game. They've 328 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 1: only given up one tight end score all year. Flipping 329 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 1: quickly to the Giant side, sat Kwon Barkley has a 330 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 1: tough match up against Washington, the team that just held 331 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 1: Zeke to their second lowest rushing total of his career. 332 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 1: No back has top sixty one yards on the ground 333 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 1: against them worst over the past three games. They've held Zeke, 334 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey, Alvin Kamara, and mark Ingram four outstanding RB 335 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 1: ones to a total of one thirty rushing yards. That's amazing. 336 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 1: So se Kwan is gonna have to do it. It's 337 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 1: gonna have to find a way into the endzone, which 338 00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 1: is done in almost every game, and it's been a 339 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 1: series of torutal matchups. I'm tired of saying this for 340 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:04,400 Speaker 1: Barkley for once. I want to just have an easy 341 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 1: matchup and even coast through. But this is not going 342 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 1: to be a testament to Peterson because he's running so 343 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 1: well that are able to control the clock and running 344 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:13,399 Speaker 1: might be part of it. All right, Let's go to 345 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 1: the passing games C grade and Eli Manning dreadful and 346 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 1: his two matchups against Washington last year. Get this against 347 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 1: the Redskins last year. One hundred thirteen yards. One hundred 348 00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: thirty two yards. That's a starting NFL quarterback, terrible Redskins 349 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 1: of the twelfth ranked secondary. It's not great, and Josh 350 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 1: Norman is awful, but it's a It's a lot better 351 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 1: than what we saw against Atlanta last week. Eli's averaging 352 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 1: just one touchdown per game, and aside from Odell Beckham, 353 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,240 Speaker 1: I don't see a lot of positive matchups among his receivers. 354 00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:43,639 Speaker 1: Just to see grade here. Odell Beckham sums to a 355 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,639 Speaker 1: C grade as well. Against Washington, He's average one hundred 356 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,920 Speaker 1: six receiving yards and one touchdown over the last five games, 357 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 1: which I love. Redskins defense has allowed at least two 358 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 1: hundred fifty passing years and or multiple touchdown passes in 359 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 1: every game. Um, actually, I don't think I sho meant 360 00:17:58,000 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 1: to have him as a SEA. Wait a minute, and 361 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:01,159 Speaker 1: I think I need to have him up as an 362 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 1: A or B hanging. I'm double checking my notes on this. 363 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, he's an A. Sorry A grade on Oldell 364 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,879 Speaker 1: Beckham had him slott in the wrong place. I'm like 365 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 1: reading this, going, this is all good news for Beckham. 366 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:12,879 Speaker 1: The whole thing's good night. What am I talking about? 367 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,399 Speaker 1: Redskins best cornerback Quinn Dunbar is missing practice with a 368 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:20,679 Speaker 1: mysterious nerve ailment and he may not go and so 369 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 1: Beckham potentially getting backup work behind him at the cornerback position. 370 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 1: So I Beckham a start C grade and I think 371 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,480 Speaker 1: this one is correct for Sterling Shepherd. Shepherd accounts of 372 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,880 Speaker 1: Eli Manning's passing yards five reception seventy three yards on average. 373 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,840 Speaker 1: This is a This is significant for an offense that 374 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 1: passes a lot more than any other team in the league. 375 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,440 Speaker 1: The Redskins starting slack corner Fabium Row suffering ankle injury 376 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 1: and Sunday, and if he doesn't go, Sterling Shepherd could 377 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 1: have backup coverage on him too. Then lastly, Evan Ingram 378 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 1: quiet last week in his first game back. Redskins rank 379 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 1: in the top half of the league and yards fantasy 380 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,040 Speaker 1: points allowed to tight ends through six games, though they 381 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 1: have not allowed a single tight end to go for 382 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,160 Speaker 1: fifty yards. I've just got a C grade and Evan Ingram. 383 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:08,440 Speaker 1: We're gonna be cautious on on Ingram in this matchup. 384 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 1: Um Sterling Shepard could could will vault up to a 385 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 1: B start if we If Fabian Moreau is out. Washington 386 00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,680 Speaker 1: has allowed five wide receiver touch shows last like two 387 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 1: or three weeks, and part of Josh and Norman has 388 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,199 Speaker 1: given up almost hey like half of them. He's a 389 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,119 Speaker 1: disaster out there. He's all He's all name and reputation. 390 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 1: At this point, when we come back, nine players not 391 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:33,160 Speaker 1: normally in your starting lineup, take a chance on us 392 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 1: after this. This is Fantasy Football Weekly presented my green 393 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 1: Bell Premium on the Van size does matter. Hey, it's 394 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 1: Mark Rosen at six ft five. It is take a 395 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:53,359 Speaker 1: chance on me. Nine players not normally in your starting lineup. 396 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,680 Speaker 1: Three quarterbacks, three on the backs, three receivers. We begin 397 00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:02,679 Speaker 1: at the quarterback position. Scott got turned on Mike. I 398 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 1: have mitched Robinsky. I actually really sneakily like both the 399 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 1: quarterbacks in this game. But Mitch Dusk, that's you really 400 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 1: should have gone with the other quarterback in this game 401 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 1: because you sneak here. Everybody's got Robinsky already. Alright, you 402 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 1: should have gone Donald on this one. You want me 403 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:20,399 Speaker 1: to go Donald? They do, because that's the nature of 404 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 1: this bit is I think they're mostly guys. Alright, just 405 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 1: pick up off the waiver, all right, Sam Donald, Then 406 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:27,919 Speaker 1: let's go with him the bat. The Bears have been 407 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:29,920 Speaker 1: torched two weeks in a row by Brady and Brock 408 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 1: over six d and fifty combined yards, three touchdowns. They 409 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:36,680 Speaker 1: all multiple touchdowns in five of their seven games. They 410 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 1: do leave the league in interceptions with eleven. That's how 411 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:42,399 Speaker 1: many Donald has. But Donald has three straight multiple touchdown games, 412 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,879 Speaker 1: and he just recorded his second and third best yardage 413 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 1: days in his in his you know short career. So 414 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 1: I see, I think that's the more in there. You got. 415 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 1: Whisky is inside my top ten this week. I like 416 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 1: hell has frozen over. We have to find the Mitch 417 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 1: Dubisky sound right now. There's no said, there's no there's 418 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:04,200 Speaker 1: none of their anymore. There's no sad Trombotsky. We've moved 419 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:06,680 Speaker 1: on all right. Hell of an audible at the line 420 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 1: of scrimmage there, Scott, Yeah, that was well done. I 421 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 1: got Case Keenum at Kansas City. Uh. Four of the 422 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 1: six quarterbacks to face the Chiefs so far have notched 423 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 1: at least three forty passing yards and one touchdown. But granted, 424 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 1: Keenum was not one of those four quarters sportless as 425 00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 1: I recall, yeah that I'm just gonna chocolate up to 426 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 1: being a little rusty. He has looked better as of late. 427 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:30,400 Speaker 1: He didn't need to throw a lot in last week's 428 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 1: were out of Arizona, and Emmanuel Sanders did vulture a 429 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 1: passing touchdown from him. We'll go with that, Tony there 430 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 1: that past first passing vulture touchdown history. But it was 431 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 1: two games prior. Case was well over three hundred passing 432 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:44,960 Speaker 1: yards and had two touchdowns in each and posing quarterbacks 433 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 1: throwing over forty three times per game, we expect Broncos 434 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,679 Speaker 1: to be chasing points. So Keenum is my guy? What 435 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,120 Speaker 1: did Odell Beckham do to Eli Manning owners a couple 436 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 1: of weeks ago? That can happen? Derek Carr goes up 437 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,200 Speaker 1: in in Indianapolis and I'll acknowledge the car wasn't good 438 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 1: the last time we saw him but before the bye. 439 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 1: But he's been a serviceable fantasy quarterback in four of 440 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 1: oakland six games. And in those four games, get this 441 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:15,800 Speaker 1: the average game for Derek Carr three hundred thirty eight 442 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 1: yards and a touchdown and a half. That doesn't seem right. 443 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: So if you can pick in two thirds of his games, 444 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:23,879 Speaker 1: he's given you an average of three d thirty eight 445 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,359 Speaker 1: yards and one and a half touchdowns. Will this be 446 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 1: one of his good games? Well? Probably it's against Indianapolis. 447 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,680 Speaker 1: And prior to facing Derek Anderson last week, the Colts 448 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:36,640 Speaker 1: had allowed three straight huge passing performances, with opposing quarterbacks 449 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 1: averaging three hundred thirty two yards and two and a 450 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 1: half touchdowns per game. And what about the loss of 451 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 1: Amari Cooper? You might be thinking, I say, who cares? 452 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:48,359 Speaker 1: Ask any fantasy owner, how reliable Amari Cooper was. Who 453 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:51,640 Speaker 1: cares Derek Carr take a chance on me? Like, let's 454 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:54,720 Speaker 1: go to our running backs. I have Trent and Kennon 455 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:57,200 Speaker 1: in that same game. I'm loving this game for some reason. 456 00:22:57,320 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 1: For some reason, hit five targets last week. Keep your's 457 00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:05,920 Speaker 1: four catches for sixty nine nice yards and Paul's five 458 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 1: to ten touches from last week are gone. I expect 459 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 1: Cannon to see you know, ten twelve touches and he's 460 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 1: great in the receiving game. The Bears have allowed seven 461 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 1: catches for fifty five yards in a touchdown per game 462 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:20,239 Speaker 1: over the last five. Over the last three. All right, 463 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 1: I got Ronald Jones at Cincinnati. Now, I'm no Internet doctor, 464 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:27,400 Speaker 1: but Peyton Barber is wearing down. He's been questionable all week, 465 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 1: just finally got a practice in yesterday. Already at seventy 466 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,639 Speaker 1: five carries on the season, that's half of his career total. 467 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,479 Speaker 1: So his durability is not yet proven. And uh so 468 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:38,480 Speaker 1: I'm liking Barbara to get more opportunities in this game 469 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:40,480 Speaker 1: against the Bengals, who are allowing a hundred nine yards 470 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,840 Speaker 1: per game on the ground to running backs. At five 471 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 1: point yard five plus yards were carry and opposing backs 472 00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: are averaging more than six and a half catches and 473 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:50,399 Speaker 1: fifty five yards through the year. Jones has always been 474 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 1: pegged solely as a two down back. He is a 475 00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 1: two down ball. He had a fifteen yard reception last week, 476 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 1: and he caught three passes the game before, so there's 477 00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 1: some hope in the passing games. So I got Ronald 478 00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 1: Jones in a high school ring affair. Raight He Mostard is, 479 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 1: you're probable starting running back for the forty niners this week. 480 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 1: He's the last two games he's posted on rushing yards 481 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:13,200 Speaker 1: not bad. Matt Brida just can't finish a game. He 482 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,880 Speaker 1: keeps trying to play, keeps getting hurt. And even if 483 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,480 Speaker 1: Brita is active in this game, it doesn't mean he's 484 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:21,560 Speaker 1: going to be the starter. They want to rest up Brita, 485 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 1: and if that that may mean zero carries for Brita 486 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 1: or a much diminished workload. Most importantly for Rahee Mostard. 487 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,879 Speaker 1: He goes up against Carolina, the worst team against the 488 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 1: run all year long, giving up the most rushing into Arizona. Sorry, 489 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 1: Arizona Cardinals starts with c That's all he got to 490 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 1: go on and why that just happened? I am I'm 491 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 1: totally not combobulated right now. Arizona ranks dead last and 492 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:55,680 Speaker 1: rushing attempts, rushing yards, rushing touchdowns allowed. I love Raheem mostart. 493 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:57,879 Speaker 1: If they rule out Matt Brida, he's gonna be in 494 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 1: my top ten this week. If they rule Breed out. 495 00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:02,640 Speaker 1: Maybe it's this music putting us to sleep, and maybe 496 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:04,919 Speaker 1: that is part of it. We are I can barely 497 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:08,919 Speaker 1: take a chance on our wide receivers. We got Taylor Gabriel. 498 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 1: I really really love him that I've liked him all season, really, 499 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 1: but I really like him this week. He's gonna He's 500 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 1: gonna get a good matchup against Buster Screen if he's healthy, 501 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 1: which it sounds like he might not be, so he's 502 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:20,680 Speaker 1: gonna get a backup in this lodge. The Jets allow 503 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:23,000 Speaker 1: the seventh most fantasy points to wide receiver this year, 504 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:26,199 Speaker 1: and eleven different receivers have topped a hundred yards and 505 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:30,159 Speaker 1: or scored. Five slot receivers have topped seventy yards on 506 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,880 Speaker 1: the Jet. I'll admit, like Ceiling Tate Landry, they're good ones, 507 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 1: but this is a good matchup for Taylor Gabriel alright, 508 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:42,160 Speaker 1: I got New Orleans Ben Watson at Minnesota. Basically any 509 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,160 Speaker 1: warm body at tight end against Minnesota. I tried to 510 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,400 Speaker 1: tout Chris Herndon on this show last week. Was met 511 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 1: with some resistance, but hopefully I won't bound a lot, 512 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:52,160 Speaker 1: not a lot of resistance. We can check the tape 513 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,959 Speaker 1: on that one. Watson's in a great spot against the Vikings, 514 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 1: allowing more than five and a half catches and seventy 515 00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,200 Speaker 1: yards per game to the position, and despite only having 516 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 1: three tight or three touchdowns of tight ends, the Vikings 517 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 1: have yielded the fourth most red zone targets to the position. 518 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:07,360 Speaker 1: Watson is third on the scenes and red zone targets, 519 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:09,440 Speaker 1: which doesn't sound all that impressive, but it's not bad 520 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 1: considering his teammates are Alvin Kamara and Michael Thomas. Hey, guys, 521 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 1: who leads the Buccaneers receivers in snaps after Mike Evans? 522 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:20,359 Speaker 1: Mike Evans is number one? Who is your number two 523 00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:24,879 Speaker 1: receiver in snaps for Buccaneers receivers? I know the answer? 524 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 1: Should I just say? Because it's Adam Humphries. It is 525 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:30,199 Speaker 1: Adam Humphries. Is it's not Chris Godwin, It is not 526 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:34,119 Speaker 1: DeShawn Jackson. It is Adam Humphries who plays out of 527 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 1: the slot, and that means that he's going to face 528 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:41,639 Speaker 1: a Cincinnati defense in complete disarray, not only playing poorly 529 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:43,680 Speaker 1: by the way, there aren't twenty nine and passing yards allowed, 530 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 1: but most importantly, they're starting slack corner Darky's dennerd out. 531 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,719 Speaker 1: So that means that Adam Humphreys is going up against 532 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 1: backup slot corner Tony McRae. A fantastic opportunity for Adam Humphries. 533 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 1: So this week Sundays Humped in Sunday is hump Day 534 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:03,679 Speaker 1: for Adam Humphries. Let's dive back into some matchups Jets 535 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 1: and Bears. You just we already talked about half of 536 00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 1: the players in this Matthew Scott, So we already know 537 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 1: that you love the Jets quarterback. You love one of 538 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:16,160 Speaker 1: the Jets receivers, baring back as well. Yeah, so we've 539 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 1: talked about we've talked about a couple of these guys already, 540 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 1: but let's let's jump into the Jets. How about not 541 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 1: liking most of his passing game despite liking Donald It's 542 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 1: one of those things that it's one of those things 543 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 1: where you know quin Quincy noon one. Once he left 544 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 1: a slot, he's kind of disappeared. Uh. Jordan Matthews just 545 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 1: joined the team. Robbie Anderson maybe, but he just has 546 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 1: one game over forty five yards. He had that huge one, 547 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 1: but one game over forty five yards and curse, he's 548 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 1: super inconsistent. Uh. Slock guys, slock guys against the Bears 549 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:50,040 Speaker 1: thirty six yards, nine yards, thirty six yards, fifty nine yards, 550 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 1: thirty six yards. They actually haven't been that great outside 551 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,160 Speaker 1: of Cobbs one big week. So I don't love any 552 00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 1: of them. I'm kind of benching them all. Herndon, I'm 553 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,120 Speaker 1: giving a c Four Cans could have. Starting tight ends 554 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 1: have scored against the Bears. Herndon scored in two straight. 555 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:07,639 Speaker 1: He had seven targets last week, two scores off the 556 00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:10,440 Speaker 1: last two weeks. Um, all those tight ends in those 557 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,680 Speaker 1: four weeks were between five and fifty yards. Three catches, 558 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:16,880 Speaker 1: probably going to get a score as well. So uh. 559 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:20,199 Speaker 1: In the running game, Cannon was my take home. I 560 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:22,399 Speaker 1: still like crow well because I think he's going to 561 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:25,119 Speaker 1: get enough touches to be viable here. Despite the Bears 562 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 1: not allowing a rushing touchdown, they've given three through the air, 563 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:34,400 Speaker 1: so cannon again. But but he should get just enough 564 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:37,320 Speaker 1: volume to uh to be start where the I can 565 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 1: see him getting fifteen seventeen eighteen touches here that that's 566 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 1: startable in my book. All right. On the other side, 567 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 1: Travisky was no longer my take com so, so I'm 568 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 1: going to give a B grade to him, and I 569 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 1: would consider even higher, maybe even an A grade. It's 570 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 1: it's very close right on that edge. B plus. If 571 00:28:56,040 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 1: you will, I will. You're allowing it this year? That's awesome, um, 572 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:03,960 Speaker 1: only because you pivoted. Okay, okay, okay. Jets have allowed 573 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 1: multiple touchdowns in five of the last six games, and 574 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 1: they're not all studs. Tannehill Portals Keenom's drought ended with 575 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 1: them over twenty six fantasy points to each of the 576 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 1: last three. Travisky is averaging four touchdowns per game over 577 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 1: the last three. He's on such such a hot streak. 578 00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 1: He's also a top ten running back lately too. He 579 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 1: has at least three fifty yards passing, at least forty 580 00:29:24,160 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 1: five yards rushing, and multiple touchdowns in each of those 581 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 1: three straight games. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's crazy. What is 582 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:36,760 Speaker 1: the happy trombone? Sound like Tony. All right, Burton, I'm 583 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 1: giving it all your inner John Philip Sousa, Uh take 584 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 1: ume was Gabriel. I really really love him this week. 585 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 1: If Robinson does not play Anthony, Miller becomes a sneaky grade. 586 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,000 Speaker 1: I I don't. I don't love him if he does, 587 00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 1: though Robinson I would give a C grade. If he 588 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 1: does play Burton, I give a B grade to the 589 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,000 Speaker 1: Jets are middle of the road against tight ends, but 590 00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 1: Ebron touched them a couple of weeks ago, and and 591 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 1: Burton us four receptions in four last five games, four targets, 592 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 1: and all those games for few yards and three of 593 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 1: those games. Uh, at least uh Cohen love him this week. 594 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 1: He has at least seven catches, at least one touchdown, 595 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 1: at least sixty nine nice receiving yards in each of 596 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 1: the last three games. He's averaging over a total yards 597 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:24,280 Speaker 1: in that span. Uh. It's a great matchup for Cohen. Howard, However, 598 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 1: I'm giving a C grade two and barely because if 599 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 1: you take away the high double birthday game, Uh, the 600 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 1: Backs have not been been very good unless they get 601 00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:36,720 Speaker 1: over twelve attempts and you're gonna need that from Howard. 602 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 1: He's not getting third down usage. I think he's barely startable. Yeah, 603 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 1: I'm with you on that. I like calling a lot better, 604 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 1: I like coming a lot better going forward. Yeah. I 605 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 1: considered an A grade for Cohen, but I didn't go 606 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:48,240 Speaker 1: that high. I was. Yeah, I think I think heniled 607 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 1: it just right. When we come back, Andy Dalton, Yeah, 608 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:53,560 Speaker 1: they that Ald offense late an egg for us and 609 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 1: what looked like a great matchup and not only got 610 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:58,440 Speaker 1: another great matchup? Do you trust your Bengals find out 611 00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:01,840 Speaker 1: when we come back. This is does Football Weekly presented 612 00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:05,840 Speaker 1: by green Bell Premium on the Fan. It's the biggest 613 00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 1: holiday concert of the year. Jingle presented. He could have 614 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:24,720 Speaker 1: just kept playing that, really, I like, uh, seventies six trombone. 615 00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 1: That's right, that's some happy trombone right there. Let's just 616 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 1: make it you're rejoined music from now on. There we go. 617 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:39,520 Speaker 1: Mind how many traumbones just to smooth seventy six? You 618 00:31:39,520 --> 00:31:42,640 Speaker 1: know it would have been the same with seventy Yeah, 619 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:46,080 Speaker 1: it wouldn't have been. Seventy seven have been too many. 620 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 1: Seventy five would have been too few. John Philip Susan 621 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:55,040 Speaker 1: knew just how many traumbones for that piece. There was 622 00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 1: a five year scientific study to figure it out. Bucks 623 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 1: take Yeah, how does he handle so many bones once? 624 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:04,560 Speaker 1: I couldn't tell you. Bucks take onto the Bengals. Let's 625 00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:06,680 Speaker 1: start on the buck in here side. I it's another 626 00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 1: in a series of easy matchups for Jamis Winston. It is. 627 00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,360 Speaker 1: And the best part about Winston in the past game 628 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 1: with Tampa Bay is their defense is so bad that 629 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 1: they're just um. Let me just mention Winston's uh pass catchers, 630 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 1: then we'll get to his grade. I'm giving Mike Evans 631 00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 1: an a targeted eleven times by Winston last week. Top 632 00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 1: the hundred yards opposing wide receivers are averaging yards in 633 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 1: a touchdown per game against the Bengals, more specifically number 634 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 1: ones I've gotten it done against since he's starting. In 635 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,600 Speaker 1: Week one, t Y Hilton touchdown, John Brown touchdown, Devon 636 00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:41,760 Speaker 1: Funch's touchdown, Julio Jones nine for one step no touchdown. Obviously, 637 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 1: you guys sit no touchdown for him, and we won't 638 00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 1: count Miami in this discussion. But an Antonio Brown touchdown, 639 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:48,800 Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill touchdown. So I like Evans here. I don't 640 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 1: like the Sean Jackson he's on the bench because Adam 641 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:53,840 Speaker 1: Humphrey's was charges take a chance of me wide receiver, 642 00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 1: and there's no way Scott or myself are benching. Chris Godwin, 643 00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,400 Speaker 1: who I'm giving a B two, has school in four 644 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:02,520 Speaker 1: of six games at least five catches and four of 645 00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 1: his last five, and despite having his BI already, he's 646 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:07,520 Speaker 1: tied for the lead in touchdowns from inside the ten 647 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 1: yard line with Michael Thomas, and then two other players 648 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:13,640 Speaker 1: will be shocking in the stat They're tied for touchdowns 649 00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 1: inside the ten yard line t Y Hilton and James White, 650 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 1: with Chris Godwin and Michael Thomas. Well, the reason for 651 00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:23,520 Speaker 1: t Y Hilton is because Andrew Luck can't throw further 652 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:26,480 Speaker 1: than ten yards, so that's why take it easy on Luck. 653 00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:29,120 Speaker 1: And since he has ranked number it is ranked twenty 654 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,560 Speaker 1: seven thingst number two wide receivers by Football Outsider, So 655 00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 1: I love Godwin this week. I also like O. J. Howard. 656 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 1: He gets to be The Bengals have allowed seven different 657 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,120 Speaker 1: tight ends to notch fifty yards indoor a touchdown, and 658 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 1: it's no surprise they've allowed the second most catches and 659 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 1: touchdowns to the tight end positions, So easy B for 660 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 1: Howard but I still have Bread on the bench because 661 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:48,680 Speaker 1: he's second fiddle in that game. UH if you miss, 662 00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 1: take a chance and we have to go back in 663 00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:53,160 Speaker 1: uh podcasts. But I have paid barbera on the bench, 664 00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,280 Speaker 1: and Ronald Jones as might take a chance on me 665 00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:57,920 Speaker 1: running back and then uh Jameis Winson to circle back 666 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 1: to him. He gets an A because I love Godwin 667 00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 1: Evans and Adam Humphreys so much, and over to to 668 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:08,279 Speaker 1: since the almost straight a's uh will be one B here, 669 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,400 Speaker 1: Let's start with Joe Mixon. Over the last three weeks, 670 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:12,959 Speaker 1: two running backs have touched the ball for Cincinnati, Joe 671 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:18,120 Speaker 1: Mixing fifty six touches, Mark Walton eight, mixing straight Bell cowing. 672 00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 1: Opposing running backs are averaging plus touches against the Bucks, 673 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:25,240 Speaker 1: who again will be without Vinny Curry and much more importantly, 674 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 1: Gerald McCoy will miss this game again, So Mixing in 675 00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:31,279 Speaker 1: an amazing spot as is a J Green again A 676 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:33,680 Speaker 1: for him. Tampa Bay is one of two teams surrender 677 00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:36,040 Speaker 1: at least sixteen catches to wide receivers and have allowed 678 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:38,719 Speaker 1: a one one yard receiver and four of their last six. 679 00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:42,400 Speaker 1: So easy A for Green, easy A for Tyler Boyd. 680 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:46,640 Speaker 1: Slot receivers have just slayed the Buccaneers this year. Juju Taylor, 681 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 1: Gabriel Gabriel, Jarvis, Landry Nelson Aglar even topped eight yards 682 00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:53,640 Speaker 1: with a touchdown. So Tyler Boyd in a great spot. 683 00:34:53,800 --> 00:34:56,360 Speaker 1: M J. Stewart is the is the bucks slock cornerback 684 00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:59,359 Speaker 1: getting destroyed in his rookie year. And some people were 685 00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:01,279 Speaker 1: saying genre us might be a good dark thrill. I 686 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:02,919 Speaker 1: might have been one of those people a few hours ago. 687 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:07,440 Speaker 1: But he is out, not go there. Uh c j Uzoma, 688 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:09,800 Speaker 1: I can give him a B borderline A. The Bucks 689 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,280 Speaker 1: have loved the third most catches and second most touchdowns 690 00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,319 Speaker 1: the tight ends, so Zuma is certainly startable. And Andy 691 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 1: Dalton he obviously after all those pass catching grades. Uh 692 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 1: don't you want to hear some shocking good news? Sony 693 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:29,719 Speaker 1: Michelle at practice today? What no way? But see if 694 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 1: he was fully healthy he would miss practice. I'm not 695 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:34,600 Speaker 1: buying it. I'm not buying it. When that injury went down, 696 00:35:34,760 --> 00:35:38,440 Speaker 1: I'm like, just saw his leg off. Now just amputate. 697 00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:42,000 Speaker 1: It's over. Is that practice problem is there? Monday night game? 698 00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:44,480 Speaker 1: So you know you're you really can't you can't do 699 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 1: much in terms of trying to guess if he's gonna 700 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:47,880 Speaker 1: go and if he does, what his snap kind of 701 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 1: would be. But this would suggest that at worst you're 702 00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:53,640 Speaker 1: you'll be starting him next week. It's an interesting spot 703 00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:57,839 Speaker 1: to make an Ivory pivot. Possibly, Yeah, you could pick 704 00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:02,120 Speaker 1: up Chris Ivory, Chris Ivory and then making night night. 705 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:05,200 Speaker 1: I like that. I like that, angle Buck. Here's another 706 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 1: game where it's kind of a start everybody game, Broncos 707 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:10,759 Speaker 1: taking on the Chiefs. Uh. We already talked about some 708 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 1: of the players in here, but let's starting with case Keenum, 709 00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:15,840 Speaker 1: who was Bryant's take a chance on me quarterback. So 710 00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:17,759 Speaker 1: let's talk about some of his receivers. I've got a 711 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 1: B grade on Emmanuel Sanders. The Chiefs surrender a ton 712 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:24,640 Speaker 1: of passing yards. You already know that, but actually they're 713 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,080 Speaker 1: only giving up fifty seven percent of their passing yards 714 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 1: to whiteouts. They're getting killed by tight ends and running 715 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:31,919 Speaker 1: backs out of the backfield as much as anything else. 716 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:35,439 Speaker 1: Sanders only had five catches for forty five yards when 717 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:38,200 Speaker 1: these teams met in Week four. They B grade on 718 00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:42,400 Speaker 1: Emmanuel Sanders, C grade on Damarius Thomas. The Chiefs again 719 00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:44,480 Speaker 1: they're giving up a lot more to running backs and 720 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:49,440 Speaker 1: tight ends, and he hasn't topped sixty six yards in 721 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:53,960 Speaker 1: five straight games against the Kansas City Chiefs. He has 722 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:57,160 Speaker 1: scored once in his last seven games against the Chiefs. 723 00:36:57,200 --> 00:37:00,319 Speaker 1: That's to Marius Thomas. The trends aren't great. And though 724 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:03,319 Speaker 1: this feels like a juicy matchup, and it is for 725 00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:07,440 Speaker 1: some other people like Philip Lindsay with an A grade 726 00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:11,120 Speaker 1: and my number four ranking at the running back position, 727 00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:14,640 Speaker 1: Royce Freeman has been ruled out. Ah, do I love it? 728 00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:17,879 Speaker 1: Career game coming against the Kansas City team that's giving 729 00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 1: up over yds on the ground and a league wars 730 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 1: seventy three yards through the air to opposing running backs. 731 00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 1: This is a fantastic opportunity for him to write the ship. 732 00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:30,359 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna get a ton of looks both 733 00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:32,920 Speaker 1: on the ground and through the air. This is um 734 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:35,839 Speaker 1: And even if the Chiefs take a big lead, which 735 00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:37,400 Speaker 1: they usually do in every game, I think they've been 736 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:39,680 Speaker 1: a heading like eight four of their plays they've played 737 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:43,320 Speaker 1: with the lead. Fine, you know, Philip Lindsay, They'll just 738 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 1: throw to Philip Lindsay, So one way or another, Lindsay 739 00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:49,319 Speaker 1: sitting out of potentially gigantic game. Also as they take 740 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 1: a chance, I mean candidate DeVante Booker, who's actually got 741 00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:56,080 Speaker 1: more targets and receptions than Lindsay has. He will get 742 00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:59,359 Speaker 1: a lot more use now that Royce Freeman has been 743 00:37:59,400 --> 00:38:04,000 Speaker 1: ruled out. He is definitely startable available in of leagues. 744 00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:06,399 Speaker 1: Go get Davante Booker if you're in a pinch, give 745 00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:09,439 Speaker 1: him a start this week, especially in PPR leagues. Last 746 00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:12,439 Speaker 1: guy I want to mention Jeff Hireman, is their tight 747 00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:15,440 Speaker 1: end available in every league in America. There isn't a 748 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:20,920 Speaker 1: smile league fanball too very cheap. Chiefs have allowed the 749 00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:24,800 Speaker 1: second most yards, the eighth most receptions, and the seventh 750 00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:28,120 Speaker 1: most Fantasy points to the tight end position three times 751 00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 1: already an opposing tight end to top seventy five yards. 752 00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:34,840 Speaker 1: Jeff higher Men is startable this week with a C 753 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:38,920 Speaker 1: grade going over to the chief side. Obviously, Mahomes, Hunt 754 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,880 Speaker 1: and Kelsey obvious A grades my number one, two and 755 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,040 Speaker 1: one ranked players at their positions. Let's spend a second 756 00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:47,319 Speaker 1: on Tyreek Hill, who lines up all over the field, 757 00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 1: but he spends most of his time in the slot, 758 00:38:49,160 --> 00:38:52,400 Speaker 1: which gives him a tough matchup against the one remaining 759 00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:57,360 Speaker 1: really good Bengals corner Chris Harris Jr. Hill was limited 760 00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,160 Speaker 1: to fifty four yards against Denver in week number or 761 00:39:00,360 --> 00:39:03,000 Speaker 1: did catch nine passes but only turn into fifty four yards. 762 00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:05,080 Speaker 1: So I've just got to be great on Tyreek Kill 763 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 1: one of his lower grades of the year, and a 764 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:11,760 Speaker 1: cautious CE grade on Sammy Watkins. Um he's only getting 765 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:16,080 Speaker 1: sixteen per cent of Patrick Mahomes targets. That's just not 766 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 1: enough volume. And I love his matchup. He goes up 767 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:23,040 Speaker 1: against the aged and ineffective Adam pac Man Jones, but 768 00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:25,279 Speaker 1: it's I just need to get more catches. I've got 769 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:27,600 Speaker 1: a C grade on him because the matchup is so positive, 770 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:29,840 Speaker 1: but I don't know that you can trust him to 771 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:32,200 Speaker 1: turn his three or four targets into much of anything 772 00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:37,920 Speaker 1: meaningful fantasy wise. Snaps like a game. Yeah, there's that 773 00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:39,920 Speaker 1: too for Watkins, right he's on the field. At least 774 00:39:39,960 --> 00:39:42,720 Speaker 1: they just never throw to him. What does Patrick Mahomes 775 00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:46,920 Speaker 1: know that the rest of us don't. Next matchup, Seahawks 776 00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 1: taking on the Lions, Scott. I loved Chris Carson in 777 00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:55,600 Speaker 1: this game before the Snacks Harrison trade, but what do 778 00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:57,399 Speaker 1: you think about what do you think about him? Now? 779 00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:00,560 Speaker 1: You just got there. He just got there. Well, we'll 780 00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 1: see how limited those snaps are for snacks. He might 781 00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:05,440 Speaker 1: play the whole game, who knows. But I still I 782 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:07,760 Speaker 1: still like it because the Lions have just been terrible 783 00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:09,600 Speaker 1: all us to stand there though. He doesn't have to 784 00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:13,560 Speaker 1: really learn any play that snacks just got to be snacks. Yes, well, 785 00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:16,439 Speaker 1: the Lions have allowed at least a hundred and twenty 786 00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:19,839 Speaker 1: total yards to running back seeing every single game this 787 00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:26,360 Speaker 1: year and over, it's such a good matchup. Yeah, I 788 00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:29,160 Speaker 1: still have Carson. I had Carson with an A grade. 789 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:31,760 Speaker 1: I still am going to leave it there for now. 790 00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:34,760 Speaker 1: But it's it's tep it. It's it's there's a little 791 00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:37,800 Speaker 1: there's a little more concerned there, Davis. I'm on the bench. 792 00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:40,000 Speaker 1: I know that his snaps are close to Tart Carson, 793 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:42,520 Speaker 1: but he's not getting the touches. And the second running 794 00:40:42,520 --> 00:40:45,319 Speaker 1: back for Seattle has only had one Okay Fantasy Day 795 00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:47,200 Speaker 1: this entire year. It's the lead dog that gets it. 796 00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:50,839 Speaker 1: So Carson with a U in the passing game, I'm 797 00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:53,960 Speaker 1: giving Wilson a B game a B grade. The lines 798 00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:56,640 Speaker 1: have allowed multiple touchdowns two qbs in all but one 799 00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:59,160 Speaker 1: game this year. Wilson the same, But it's more about 800 00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:04,719 Speaker 1: this time of year for Wilson. He's notoriously Yeah, in 801 00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:07,759 Speaker 1: two thousands sixteen his run started Week nine. Last year 802 00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:11,240 Speaker 1: it was week seven, it was week ten, was week seven. 803 00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:13,560 Speaker 1: His rook year, it was week eight. This isn't just 804 00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:16,240 Speaker 1: like a one year thing too. This is his entire 805 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:19,480 Speaker 1: career he starts at this point, so I really like 806 00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:21,920 Speaker 1: it for him. His floor, his rushing floor has been 807 00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:24,720 Speaker 1: low this year. He hasn't rushed over twenty five yards yet, 808 00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:26,719 Speaker 1: but that also goes up in the second half of 809 00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:29,680 Speaker 1: the year. I think this is a good matchup for it. Um. 810 00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:32,560 Speaker 1: This defense just allowed seven hundred total yards and five 811 00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:35,040 Speaker 1: touchdowns to Brady and Brock over the last two weeks, 812 00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:40,920 Speaker 1: so I'm giving Baldwin and Lockett B grades because of that. UM. 813 00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:43,920 Speaker 1: The Lions maybe top ten against wide receivers on the season, 814 00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 1: but over the last three weeks they're dead last in 815 00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:50,520 Speaker 1: fantasy points allowed and they only played two games, and 816 00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:53,800 Speaker 1: earlier in the season they played the Jets, the forty 817 00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:57,560 Speaker 1: niners without Goodwin, the Patriots without Edelman or Gordon. There's 818 00:41:57,560 --> 00:41:59,520 Speaker 1: a reason they were ranked so high. It's not because 819 00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:01,440 Speaker 1: they were good, it's because of the matchup. So B 820 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:06,799 Speaker 1: grades for both Lockett and Baldwin. Over the Lions side. Stafford, 821 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:09,040 Speaker 1: I'm given a B grade even though the Legion of 822 00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:12,359 Speaker 1: Boom is gone. And but they're like top three, top 823 00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:16,560 Speaker 1: five this year on page Look at the quarterbacks the 824 00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:21,840 Speaker 1: Seahawks exactly they are. They faced the easiest quarterbacking schedule 825 00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 1: of any team in the NFL. It's kind of just like, 826 00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:27,000 Speaker 1: why what I said about the On the other side, 827 00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:29,719 Speaker 1: the Lions defense, you face some easy matchups and you're 828 00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:32,680 Speaker 1: gonna you're gonna look good. The over under fifty makes 829 00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:34,840 Speaker 1: me really like a little bit of a shootout in 830 00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:38,040 Speaker 1: this game. And Stafford's thrown from multiple touchdowns in five straight. 831 00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:42,520 Speaker 1: The Lions are averaging the totals of all the Lions 832 00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:45,400 Speaker 1: games this year over fifty points per game on average 833 00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:48,000 Speaker 1: for the total, so I think they're gonna hit it. 834 00:42:48,360 --> 00:42:51,160 Speaker 1: I give Tate Golden Tate. He's disappeared a little bit 835 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:54,440 Speaker 1: over less a couple of weeks. Seattle's been giving up 836 00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:56,600 Speaker 1: a few good slot weeks. But it's a revenge game, 837 00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:59,160 Speaker 1: which was yeah, I was like that or revenge game 838 00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:03,839 Speaker 1: for Golden Tape be grade for Goladay. Weirdly, not only 839 00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:05,120 Speaker 1: does he leave the team in the yards in the 840 00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:07,440 Speaker 1: last two weeks on the season, he has just two 841 00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:11,040 Speaker 1: fewer yards than Golden Tate and the same amount of touchdowns. 842 00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:14,720 Speaker 1: He said, he's right there, right there with him. Marvin Jones, 843 00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:20,160 Speaker 1: I'm giving a C grade. I considered bench. He's in fact, 844 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:24,120 Speaker 1: I wrote he's the third fiddle. It's really what he is. Um, 845 00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:27,040 Speaker 1: but he is averaging three catches per game, He's getting 846 00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:31,120 Speaker 1: seven targets games, and uh, the three games where the 847 00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:34,719 Speaker 1: Lions average thirty points per game, he really did show up. 848 00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:37,120 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna give him. You know, where he scored 849 00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:39,000 Speaker 1: over third where they scored over thirty points, I'm giving 850 00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:41,800 Speaker 1: him a cee. Uh. Benching Roberts, I don't trust that 851 00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:44,520 Speaker 1: at all. No Detroit tight end has gone over fifteen 852 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:47,800 Speaker 1: yards this this season until last week. That's a fluke. 853 00:43:47,920 --> 00:43:51,280 Speaker 1: Roberts was a fluke last week. Carry On Johnson, huge 854 00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:54,600 Speaker 1: game in a perfect storm against Miami. Miami is just terrible, 855 00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:58,480 Speaker 1: terrible against running backs. But I do like Johnson this 856 00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:02,000 Speaker 1: week with Riddick out, I'm bench blunt. Uh. He has 857 00:44:02,040 --> 00:44:04,640 Speaker 1: an opportunity for a touchdown, but that's all you can expect. 858 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:07,560 Speaker 1: I still think it's a two to one split. I 859 00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:10,200 Speaker 1: think we're gonna see four. Four out of the last 860 00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:12,520 Speaker 1: six lead backs against the Seahawks have topped a hundred 861 00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:15,920 Speaker 1: total yards, and those players scored five total touchdowns. I 862 00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:17,960 Speaker 1: think that's the range for carry on near a hundred 863 00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:22,800 Speaker 1: maybe a score. R um let's let's Golden takes a 864 00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:26,280 Speaker 1: free agent after this year. Let's assume he's somewhere else. Yeah, 865 00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:31,959 Speaker 1: where's your preseason ranking on Kenny Golladay? Are you really 866 00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:35,719 Speaker 1: asking me this one? I'm asking you because I'm I'm 867 00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:38,399 Speaker 1: a I'm a huge Golladay hunk. That's probably why you're 868 00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:44,960 Speaker 1: right now. Definitely, definitely top twenty four. That's it. It's 869 00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:47,359 Speaker 1: you can go, oh, I thought you were gonna tell 870 00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:50,839 Speaker 1: me top twelve. One. I haven't dug into it, but 871 00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,960 Speaker 1: it's like saying instinct the question. In fact, I think 872 00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:56,640 Speaker 1: dynasty wise, he is a top twenty five asset at 873 00:44:56,640 --> 00:45:00,439 Speaker 1: wide receiver right now. Um, but yeah, he it's gonna 874 00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 1: be close. He's gonna threaten top twelve for Me's gone. 875 00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:05,520 Speaker 1: We're gonna try to work in one quick call. Hi, Tim, 876 00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:12,960 Speaker 1: thanks to your patience. Jeez, yeah, we don't want to 877 00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:16,840 Speaker 1: hear your leaf blower. Sorry about that. Okay, I have 878 00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:19,560 Speaker 1: a guillotine question for you, all right, somebody in a 879 00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:21,960 Speaker 1: guillotine league. I love it, unlike all three of us. 880 00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:24,640 Speaker 1: First of all, I love the league, so it's great 881 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:27,600 Speaker 1: format for everybody's loving it's so great idea charts really 882 00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:31,800 Speaker 1: love fantastic My question, And I've got a few players 883 00:45:31,840 --> 00:45:34,080 Speaker 1: here to go through. Um, I've been listening to the 884 00:45:34,200 --> 00:45:36,320 Speaker 1: entire show, but so at running back, I plan to 885 00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:39,920 Speaker 1: start James Conner and Philip Lindsay. Receiver will be Ja 886 00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:45,520 Speaker 1: and Antonio. I'm between Emmanuel Sanders, Sa Kwan and carry 887 00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:48,160 Speaker 1: on and Chris Goodwin for my flight. What do y'all think? 888 00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:51,680 Speaker 1: A lot of good players right there. Normally it's all day, 889 00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:55,560 Speaker 1: but this week is it's a brutal matchup. I still 890 00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:57,640 Speaker 1: don't think you can bench them though, Like I'm off 891 00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 1: Kwan any kind of daily format. This is you don't 892 00:46:00,040 --> 00:46:03,560 Speaker 1: want to pay his price, but man, it's Sanders. It's 893 00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:06,279 Speaker 1: Sanders or Quan. But I gotta go with the what 894 00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:08,960 Speaker 1: you'd expect to still be guaranteed touches and a bad matchup. 895 00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:12,680 Speaker 1: But I lean Kuan barely over Saders. I just can't bend. Partly, 896 00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:14,920 Speaker 1: I don't know how you do it. That's my thought too. 897 00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:18,240 Speaker 1: I I've been riding them all year, so your opinion. 898 00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:20,920 Speaker 1: Thank you, Tim, Good luck in your guarantine league. It's 899 00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:24,399 Speaker 1: a blast, isn't it. It's so much It's so much fun. Yeah, absolutely, 900 00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:26,680 Speaker 1: all right. We'll take a break when we come back. 901 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:29,439 Speaker 1: Three hot questions for a panel of experts. Play along 902 00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:31,960 Speaker 1: at home, see if you can go. Three and oh. 903 00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:37,920 Speaker 1: This is Fantasy Football Weekly, pressed by devans Man. Everyone 904 00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:39,719 Speaker 1: been liver here from my good friends over at town 905 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:42,319 Speaker 1: Hall Brewery. Listen, town Hall is now going to offer 906 00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:51,800 Speaker 1: welcome back to the show. Fantasy Football Weekly week Numbreak 907 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:55,200 Speaker 1: coming up. Don't get set your Saturday morning rosters, Sunday 908 00:46:55,200 --> 00:46:57,840 Speaker 1: morning rosters, I should say Saturday morning set them. Now 909 00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:01,600 Speaker 1: we've got another early London game. You don't want to 910 00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:04,200 Speaker 1: be caught off guard with any late breaking news. Although 911 00:47:04,239 --> 00:47:06,480 Speaker 1: we don't really have anybody that's coming into that game 912 00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:10,799 Speaker 1: as a game time decision either, so hopefully, of course, 913 00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:13,080 Speaker 1: at this time last week we know Melvin Gordon was 914 00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:14,839 Speaker 1: going to be a game time decision. But we knew 915 00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:18,000 Speaker 1: he was questionable, but didn't didn't really think he wouldn't go, 916 00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:20,759 Speaker 1: So you know, I just let's get that squared away. 917 00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:24,919 Speaker 1: I knew, I just didn't tell anyone. Just be sure 918 00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:27,120 Speaker 1: you have London Blake Bortles in your lineup before you 919 00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:29,279 Speaker 1: go to bed too. Yeah, you don't want, you don't want, 920 00:47:29,320 --> 00:47:30,800 Speaker 1: you don't want the want to miss out on the 921 00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:38,040 Speaker 1: American version, Let's let's dive into hot question number one. 922 00:47:38,880 --> 00:47:43,120 Speaker 1: With Will Fuller done for the year, once Kiki Cutie returns, 923 00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:46,120 Speaker 1: probably after the bye, is he a wide receiver one? 924 00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:49,640 Speaker 1: A wide receiver to a flex or a bench Kiki 925 00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:53,399 Speaker 1: Cutie Scott, I'm gonna go with a wide receiver too, 926 00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:55,839 Speaker 1: based on just the volume of the wide receiver two 927 00:47:55,920 --> 00:47:58,759 Speaker 1: kits in that offense right now. Uh. He had six 928 00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:00,560 Speaker 1: for fifty one in a touchdown in the one game 929 00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:03,520 Speaker 1: without Faller, the game that Fuller left in the third 930 00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:06,279 Speaker 1: quarter A couple of games ago, he had eleven for 931 00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:09,759 Speaker 1: one or nine, but nine targets after nine he was 932 00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:16,200 Speaker 1: targeted nine times. There you go, nine times nine times. Yeah, 933 00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:18,719 Speaker 1: so he was targeted nine times eight catches for eighty 934 00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:21,200 Speaker 1: two yards in those two and a half quarters after 935 00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:23,839 Speaker 1: Faller left. I think he's going to continue to see 936 00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:25,520 Speaker 1: eight to ten targets when he comes back, if he 937 00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:28,399 Speaker 1: stays healthy. All right, Yeah, I don't have much to add. 938 00:48:28,400 --> 00:48:30,719 Speaker 1: I got wide receiver two as well. I'm just looking 939 00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:33,960 Speaker 1: ahead at the schedule. Broncos next week can't stop anyone 940 00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:36,520 Speaker 1: on the ground or through the air. But then the 941 00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:42,640 Speaker 1: remaining matchups Redskins, Titans, Browns, Colts, Jets, Eagles, all those 942 00:48:42,680 --> 00:48:44,680 Speaker 1: are more of a plus matchup for receivers and they 943 00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:47,600 Speaker 1: are for running backs, so they're all great matchups for Cutie. 944 00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:51,640 Speaker 1: So wide receiver two, I really struggled because he's right 945 00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:54,080 Speaker 1: on the edge of wide receiver too and flex. For 946 00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:56,200 Speaker 1: me to be a wide receiver too, he's got to 947 00:48:56,239 --> 00:49:00,319 Speaker 1: be roughly a top twenty receiver most weeks or better. 948 00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:03,719 Speaker 1: Our top twenty, our twentieth receivers are guys. You know, 949 00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:07,080 Speaker 1: this week we're in the Robert Woods and Emmanuel Sanders 950 00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:12,959 Speaker 1: ranked area k CT is just not there. I think, yeah, 951 00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:15,560 Speaker 1: that's I've got a flex on him, despite the fact 952 00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:17,680 Speaker 1: that I think he's gonna be really good. And two, 953 00:49:17,880 --> 00:49:20,279 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put numbers on all the players on all 954 00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:23,800 Speaker 1: the teams that Brian just said down the stretch, here's 955 00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:29,319 Speaker 1: where those teams rank. Fantasy points allowed to wide receivers 956 00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:32,560 Speaker 1: for the rest of the year for the Texans and 957 00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:40,640 Speaker 1: Kiki Quti twenty second, four, eight, twenty six, and twenty eight. 958 00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:43,520 Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's just gonna be a series. And 959 00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:45,600 Speaker 1: by the way, the one one that sounded good Indianapolis 960 00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:49,080 Speaker 1: was that eight their secondaries degrading before very eyes. The 961 00:49:49,160 --> 00:49:52,400 Speaker 1: high numbers are good. Fort Yeah, high numbers are good. 962 00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:56,000 Speaker 1: Philadelphia is giving up the twenty eight most fantasy points 963 00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:58,840 Speaker 1: to wide receivers, so it's all positive for him, but 964 00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:02,000 Speaker 1: I I can't quite get him into my top twenty 965 00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:05,520 Speaker 1: or top twenty four. Correct answer, Here's here's another point 966 00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:08,440 Speaker 1: for your flex hamstring injurys Linger and he's been in 967 00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:11,200 Speaker 1: and out. So how many examples of that do we need? 968 00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:18,360 Speaker 1: Question number two. Everybody's talking about Amari Cooper's value in Texas, 969 00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:22,680 Speaker 1: but what about Jordy Nelson's value in Oakland for the 970 00:50:22,719 --> 00:50:24,919 Speaker 1: rest of the year. Is Jordy a wide receiver? One 971 00:50:25,239 --> 00:50:29,759 Speaker 1: wide receiver to flex or bench? So I struggled to 972 00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:33,160 Speaker 1: think to come up with what Jordy Nelson was when 973 00:50:33,160 --> 00:50:36,319 Speaker 1: Amari Cooper was on the team, and I looking back, 974 00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:38,400 Speaker 1: he had scored in three of the last four games, 975 00:50:38,440 --> 00:50:41,000 Speaker 1: so I guess he was a fix player. Really probably. 976 00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:44,239 Speaker 1: I've been thinking a super long time about where Amri's 977 00:50:44,280 --> 00:50:47,200 Speaker 1: three point seven targets are gonna, right, and those are 978 00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:49,840 Speaker 1: bloated by two games of double digit targets. But I 979 00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:52,840 Speaker 1: don't know. I don't think I'm gonna say Nelson was 980 00:50:52,880 --> 00:50:55,680 Speaker 1: a flex player, and his value doesn't really change because 981 00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:58,200 Speaker 1: he's the third most targeted player on that team, behind 982 00:50:58,280 --> 00:51:00,960 Speaker 1: Jared Cook and Jalen Richards. So if anyone's gonna still 983 00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:04,040 Speaker 1: get more targets, it's gonna be Martavis Bryant, probably Cook, 984 00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:06,960 Speaker 1: and probably be short. I think Jordy just stays as is, 985 00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:10,400 Speaker 1: and I'll give him a very very generous flex Creed 986 00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:13,359 Speaker 1: all right, yeah, kind of the same flex in good 987 00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:16,320 Speaker 1: matchups is what I wrote down. I mean, they've trailed 988 00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:19,319 Speaker 1: in all but one game by midway through the third, 989 00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:22,000 Speaker 1: and trailed early in the fourth and that other one, 990 00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:25,160 Speaker 1: so playing catchup was already factored in. This offense isn't 991 00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:27,920 Speaker 1: gonna be good. Lynches out to the offense is probably 992 00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:31,480 Speaker 1: gonna stall more. I barely, barely, barely. Think he's a 993 00:51:31,480 --> 00:51:34,640 Speaker 1: fletch flex play and really just good matchups. You guys 994 00:51:34,640 --> 00:51:37,319 Speaker 1: are dead wrong. Oh boy, we'll start with your bad math. 995 00:51:37,360 --> 00:51:39,000 Speaker 1: First of all, Cooper was getting five and a half 996 00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:42,280 Speaker 1: targets per game, thirty two targets in six games, and 997 00:51:42,600 --> 00:51:45,560 Speaker 1: that and at least hyperpose. At least half of those 998 00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:47,640 Speaker 1: are gonna go to Jordy Nelson, right half of the 999 00:51:48,120 --> 00:51:49,920 Speaker 1: five and a half. So let's throw a couple of 1000 00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:53,120 Speaker 1: targets at Jourdy right now. He already has fifty more 1001 00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:55,280 Speaker 1: Fantasy points than a Marie Cooper, so he was already 1002 00:51:55,360 --> 00:51:58,000 Speaker 1: better than a Mari Cooper. To your point you made earlier, 1003 00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:00,880 Speaker 1: the team's behind all the time and passing all the 1004 00:52:00,920 --> 00:52:04,319 Speaker 1: time through sheer volume. He's going to do well rest 1005 00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:08,319 Speaker 1: of the schedule. Only two tough matchups. The rest of 1006 00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:14,560 Speaker 1: them are jaw droppingly easy San Francisco, Indie Chargers Chiefs. 1007 00:52:14,840 --> 00:52:19,720 Speaker 1: And listen to his playoff run for Jordy Nelson Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Denver, 1008 00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:23,160 Speaker 1: and then wraps up. If you play weeks seventeen, you shouldn't. 1009 00:52:23,440 --> 00:52:26,520 Speaker 1: Kansas City. I'm telling you we're going to have A 1010 00:52:26,680 --> 00:52:29,400 Speaker 1: and B grades on Jordy Nelson in a lot of 1011 00:52:29,440 --> 00:52:33,359 Speaker 1: the remaining matchups again two bad ones, seven or eight 1012 00:52:33,520 --> 00:52:37,239 Speaker 1: really positive matchups the rest of the year schedule, But 1013 00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:41,000 Speaker 1: I didn't want to take up that much time. It's 1014 00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:43,360 Speaker 1: going to be a wide receiver to the rest of 1015 00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:49,160 Speaker 1: the way, vans Hot. Question number three, now that Byron left, 1016 00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:52,600 Speaker 1: which is calling plays for the Cardinals, will he boost 1017 00:52:52,760 --> 00:52:58,560 Speaker 1: David Johnson's fantasy value a little, a lot, not at all, 1018 00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:00,799 Speaker 1: or does it actually go back words? So you got 1019 00:53:00,840 --> 00:53:03,799 Speaker 1: four options, a lot, a little, not at all, or 1020 00:53:03,840 --> 00:53:06,320 Speaker 1: does it go backwards? Scott, by the way, it is 1021 00:53:06,360 --> 00:53:10,839 Speaker 1: three point seven receptions per game. Uh, this is really 1022 00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:13,279 Speaker 1: tough for me because he was averaging forty seven yards 1023 00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:17,160 Speaker 1: per game and twenty three receiving yards a game. That's 1024 00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:19,560 Speaker 1: seven yards of game. He if he gets up to 1025 00:53:19,640 --> 00:53:22,239 Speaker 1: seventy rushing yards per game in thirty five receiving per game, 1026 00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:25,560 Speaker 1: that's a fifty percent increase and that's easily doable. I 1027 00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:30,080 Speaker 1: mean easily doable. Increase the touchdowns he did have five 1028 00:53:30,120 --> 00:53:33,719 Speaker 1: touchdowns and what seven games, so that that's not as repeatable. 1029 00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:37,040 Speaker 1: Maybe I'm gonna go with a lot because I think 1030 00:53:38,040 --> 00:53:41,200 Speaker 1: is probably the floor on his increase. All right, Yeah, 1031 00:53:41,200 --> 00:53:43,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go a lot too because left Which said 1032 00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:46,440 Speaker 1: he's gonna mirror Bruce Arians usage, and they fell together 1033 00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:51,080 Speaker 1: David Johnson. And honestly, as long as you don't mirror 1034 00:53:51,080 --> 00:53:53,439 Speaker 1: anyone but Mike McCool you could mirror like a twenty 1035 00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:56,360 Speaker 1: year old Stone college kid using David Johnson and Madden 1036 00:53:56,400 --> 00:53:58,239 Speaker 1: and the ice gonna his production is gonna go way up. 1037 00:53:58,320 --> 00:53:59,880 Speaker 1: Johnson will be on the edges way more, will be 1038 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:02,800 Speaker 1: utilize the way he should. And uh, the schedule is 1039 00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:04,759 Speaker 1: gonna help him out a lot. I won't dive into it, 1040 00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:06,719 Speaker 1: but it is very meaty, So a lot, a lot, 1041 00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:10,120 Speaker 1: a lot see Mike McCoy. Uh, David Johnson will be 1042 00:54:10,160 --> 00:54:13,560 Speaker 1: aided a lot by sanity returning to the coaching staff 1043 00:54:13,640 --> 00:54:16,719 Speaker 1: under Byron Leftwich. Now, in fairness, we don't anything about 1044 00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:20,160 Speaker 1: offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich. He's never had an NFL play 1045 00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:23,840 Speaker 1: call at this level. He's never been an offensive coordinator. 1046 00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:26,400 Speaker 1: This thing could go badly, but we're just assuming it 1047 00:54:26,480 --> 00:54:29,040 Speaker 1: can't go any worse than what Mike McCoy did to 1048 00:54:29,719 --> 00:54:32,000 Speaker 1: David Johnson. I hope he runs it up the middle 1049 00:54:32,040 --> 00:54:36,560 Speaker 1: on his very first the fantasy they will, they'll blow up. 1050 00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:41,759 Speaker 1: The schedule is so favorable fantasy points allowed. I'm not 1051 00:54:41,760 --> 00:54:43,279 Speaker 1: gonna tell you the teams. I'm just gonna tell you 1052 00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:46,400 Speaker 1: the fantasy points allowed rankings for the remaining teams on 1053 00:54:46,440 --> 00:54:53,759 Speaker 1: the schedule for David Johnson twenty three, thirty one, twenty five, sixteen, fifteen, 1054 00:54:54,080 --> 00:54:59,840 Speaker 1: twenty nine, twenty six. Dear lord, none of them below fifth. 1055 00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:02,640 Speaker 1: They're all below, They're all an They're on the bottom half. 1056 00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:05,520 Speaker 1: He won't see a top half defense and fantasy points 1057 00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:09,680 Speaker 1: allowed to running backs all year. It's a fantastic opportunity 1058 00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:13,760 Speaker 1: for David Johnson by low send out some trade offers, 1059 00:55:13,880 --> 00:55:16,880 Speaker 1: shake things up in your league, and let's talk about 1060 00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:20,920 Speaker 1: the Colts and the Raiders, Brian Colts. Uh feels like 1061 00:55:21,040 --> 00:55:24,399 Speaker 1: another in a series of just easy, easy matchups every week. 1062 00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:26,240 Speaker 1: It feels like it's an easy matchup for the Colts. 1063 00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:28,719 Speaker 1: Talk to me about the cold side already told you, 1064 00:55:28,840 --> 00:55:31,000 Speaker 1: like I always, I like Derek Carr on the other side. 1065 00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:32,560 Speaker 1: But talk to me about the cold side and Aarondrew 1066 00:55:32,600 --> 00:55:35,279 Speaker 1: luck and if this string of amazing performances are going 1067 00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:38,399 Speaker 1: to continue, yeah they should. And think of it this way. 1068 00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:41,279 Speaker 1: Andrew Andrew Luck is gonna have all his toys back 1069 00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:43,680 Speaker 1: when it comes to t Y Hilton. Jack doil is 1070 00:55:43,719 --> 00:55:47,440 Speaker 1: coming back back. Andrew Luck himself was had to be 1071 00:55:47,480 --> 00:55:49,560 Speaker 1: a little The rust is shaking off with every week. 1072 00:55:49,600 --> 00:55:52,040 Speaker 1: So Andrew Luck gets an A in this matchup. Because 1073 00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:54,239 Speaker 1: I love Ti t Y Hilton, he gets an A. 1074 00:55:54,360 --> 00:55:56,960 Speaker 1: Oakland is allowing seventy six yards per game to number 1075 00:55:56,960 --> 00:56:00,800 Speaker 1: one wide receivers. Seattle wide receivers total three touchdowns against 1076 00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:03,400 Speaker 1: the Raiders in Week six. Guys like Jeron Brown and 1077 00:56:03,480 --> 00:56:07,160 Speaker 1: David Moore were scoring. So Hilton's great play. But I'm 1078 00:56:07,160 --> 00:56:09,640 Speaker 1: not playing any other wide receiver for indeed, it's as 1079 00:56:09,719 --> 00:56:13,759 Speaker 1: two modeled between Chester Rogers and Ryan Grant. They're all 1080 00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:17,520 Speaker 1: on the bench. But Eric Ebron still on a good play. 1081 00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:20,280 Speaker 1: Given him a be Even with Jack Doyle's return. Oakland 1082 00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:21,759 Speaker 1: has allowed to tight end touch on two of their 1083 00:56:21,800 --> 00:56:24,239 Speaker 1: last three games. And Ebron seems to be the guy 1084 00:56:24,280 --> 00:56:26,879 Speaker 1: in the red zone for Andrew Luk and then uh 1085 00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:29,080 Speaker 1: talking to running backs real quick for the Colts. Marlon 1086 00:56:29,160 --> 00:56:31,560 Speaker 1: Mack looked great last week. I can give him a B. 1087 00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:34,560 Speaker 1: He was questionable to play, but practicing full yesterday. He 1088 00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:36,520 Speaker 1: should be good to go, and as long as he's 1089 00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:39,560 Speaker 1: in the starting lineup. Nineham Hines and Jordan Wilkins are 1090 00:56:39,600 --> 00:56:42,440 Speaker 1: not relevant, so they are on the bench. Over to 1091 00:56:42,600 --> 00:56:45,360 Speaker 1: the Raiders. Got a lot of c's looks like my 1092 00:56:45,400 --> 00:56:47,960 Speaker 1: high school report card. Here, Doug Martin will start with 1093 00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:50,040 Speaker 1: him and gets to see, how did you get I 1094 00:56:50,080 --> 00:56:52,759 Speaker 1: don't know, I studied hard. The Colts have allowed more 1095 00:56:52,800 --> 00:56:54,839 Speaker 1: than four point five yards per carry over the last 1096 00:56:54,840 --> 00:56:58,720 Speaker 1: five games, but Oakland ranks dead last in the NFL 1097 00:56:58,800 --> 00:57:03,000 Speaker 1: and yards created before the contact point one point eight. 1098 00:57:03,080 --> 00:57:06,000 Speaker 1: So Martin is not good and he's gonna have to 1099 00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:08,839 Speaker 1: work hard, so just to see the volume should be there. 1100 00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:11,080 Speaker 1: But that's the only reason he gets a starting grade. Actually, 1101 00:57:11,080 --> 00:57:13,640 Speaker 1: like Jayley Michard Moore in PPR, he gets to see 1102 00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:16,800 Speaker 1: despite already having his by he ranks top ten among 1103 00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:19,880 Speaker 1: NFL running backs and targets, catches and receiving yards, so 1104 00:57:19,920 --> 00:57:23,240 Speaker 1: he is certainly viable in PPR, maybe even in standard UH. 1105 00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:26,720 Speaker 1: Jared Cook always viable. He gets an opposing tight ends 1106 00:57:26,760 --> 00:57:30,240 Speaker 1: have posted monster numbers against the Colts, so Cook is 1107 00:57:30,280 --> 00:57:33,320 Speaker 1: in your lineup easily. Jordy Nelson is a wide receiver too. 1108 00:57:33,360 --> 00:57:37,960 Speaker 1: I guess I had to see on him as a Yeah, uh, 1109 00:57:38,960 --> 00:57:41,120 Speaker 1: volume coming, a lot of volume coming. Uh. The Colts 1110 00:57:41,120 --> 00:57:43,200 Speaker 1: secondary is banged up, and we respect Oakland to be 1111 00:57:43,280 --> 00:57:46,160 Speaker 1: chasing points. And for that reason, Martevis Bryant now the 1112 00:57:46,160 --> 00:57:48,600 Speaker 1: other starter on the boundary. It gets to see. Uh, 1113 00:57:48,680 --> 00:57:54,240 Speaker 1: secondary receivers have done very well. Comparable secondary receivers Terrell Prior, Cordurell, Patterson, 1114 00:57:54,360 --> 00:57:57,040 Speaker 1: Will Fuller, I'll have scored against the Colts in recent weeks. 1115 00:57:57,040 --> 00:57:59,280 Speaker 1: So Bryant is a nice hail Mary play. What do 1116 00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:01,120 Speaker 1: you think about I talked about this with p A 1117 00:58:01,200 --> 00:58:03,760 Speaker 1: yesterday on the feast. What do you think about my 1118 00:58:04,720 --> 00:58:09,200 Speaker 1: fan ball DFS play of car to Martavis Bryant in 1119 00:58:09,200 --> 00:58:12,560 Speaker 1: a big tournament like the twenty dollar tournament. We have 1120 00:58:12,600 --> 00:58:14,880 Speaker 1: fan ball account slash radio. Yeah, what do you think about? 1121 00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:18,560 Speaker 1: That is a cheap hook up? Absolutely, Brian came incause 1122 00:58:18,560 --> 00:58:21,480 Speaker 1: that trade went down y salary. I love Yet you 1123 00:58:21,640 --> 00:58:23,280 Speaker 1: cleared up a lot of cap space and you said 1124 00:58:23,480 --> 00:58:25,160 Speaker 1: that's how I get That's how I get tat Gurley 1125 00:58:25,160 --> 00:58:27,680 Speaker 1: in my line up. Our kareem hunt into my might 1126 00:58:27,760 --> 00:58:30,160 Speaker 1: have high ownership and something like that. You will and 1127 00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:33,080 Speaker 1: uh and and Derek Carr you'll take a chance to 1128 00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:35,720 Speaker 1: the quarterback for that very reason. And that is the 1129 00:58:35,800 --> 00:58:38,040 Speaker 1: end of that chapter. It is the end of that chapter. 1130 00:58:38,280 --> 00:58:41,280 Speaker 1: Let's um, let's try to work in one more matchup, 1131 00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:44,960 Speaker 1: Ravens taking on the Panthers. That's me. Hold on, I 1132 00:58:44,960 --> 00:58:47,600 Speaker 1: gotta go to the right page. Here we go. Let's 1133 00:58:47,600 --> 00:58:49,920 Speaker 1: start on the Baltimore side. In the passing game. Joe 1134 00:58:49,960 --> 00:58:53,160 Speaker 1: Flacco throwing forty three times per game. You don't think 1135 00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:56,360 Speaker 1: of the Ravens as being this past happy offense. We 1136 00:58:56,360 --> 00:58:59,240 Speaker 1: think of them as a conservative organization. Everything else. Nope, 1137 00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:02,600 Speaker 1: already three times per game. Joe Flacco, with all that volume, 1138 00:59:02,600 --> 00:59:05,480 Speaker 1: he usually ends up with decent maybe not explosive stats, 1139 00:59:05,520 --> 00:59:08,560 Speaker 1: but decent stats. This week he plays against the Carolina 1140 00:59:08,600 --> 00:59:11,680 Speaker 1: defense that's allowed exactly two touchdown passes in five straight games. 1141 00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:13,480 Speaker 1: And I think there's another two coming for Joe Flaco. 1142 00:59:13,600 --> 00:59:15,760 Speaker 1: I think this is the same guy that through yards 1143 00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:18,680 Speaker 1: in the game last year. How about that? Right, it's 1144 00:59:18,680 --> 00:59:21,040 Speaker 1: a there's a very different offense. And if I think 1145 00:59:21,040 --> 00:59:23,320 Speaker 1: he's got two touchdown passes coming, I gotta like John 1146 00:59:23,320 --> 00:59:25,560 Speaker 1: Brown right your angle. Here is a deep hook up. 1147 00:59:25,600 --> 00:59:29,840 Speaker 1: He's averaging twenty yards per catch. Which is ridiculous. Caroline 1148 00:59:29,880 --> 00:59:32,920 Speaker 1: is allowing the fourth most receptions of twenty yards are 1149 00:59:32,960 --> 00:59:35,400 Speaker 1: more so the deep poke up coming for John Brown 1150 00:59:35,560 --> 00:59:38,560 Speaker 1: like him be grade also, And by the way, Flacca 1151 00:59:38,640 --> 00:59:41,520 Speaker 1: was a B grade as well. Michael Crabtree C grade. 1152 00:59:41,640 --> 00:59:44,560 Speaker 1: He gets more targets actually than Brown does. It's a 1153 00:59:44,640 --> 00:59:46,800 Speaker 1: hit and MS Panthers defense've had some good games. They 1154 00:59:46,800 --> 00:59:48,560 Speaker 1: actually did a nice job against A. J. Green and 1155 00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:52,200 Speaker 1: Julio Jones. But I think it's um It's maybe on 1156 00:59:52,280 --> 00:59:54,280 Speaker 1: the tougher side of the matchup for Crabtree, but just 1157 00:59:54,320 --> 00:59:56,800 Speaker 1: through sheer volume, I think he ultimately gets something done here. 1158 00:59:57,000 --> 01:00:01,400 Speaker 1: He'll run the overwhelming majority of of play against inconsistent 1159 01:00:01,440 --> 01:00:06,320 Speaker 1: cornerback Dante Jackson. Who else do we like? Alex Collins 1160 01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:09,080 Speaker 1: has a B grade in this one, even though, uh, 1161 01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:11,600 Speaker 1: even though they're giving up over four point six yards 1162 01:00:11,600 --> 01:00:13,439 Speaker 1: per carry, which is a lot opposing running backs, they're 1163 01:00:13,440 --> 01:00:17,520 Speaker 1: only rushing eighteen times a game, fourth fewest against the Panthers, 1164 01:00:17,520 --> 01:00:20,000 Speaker 1: and so volume may not be the friend to Alex Collins. 1165 01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:22,120 Speaker 1: And as I mentioned earlier, again, everything seems to go 1166 01:00:22,160 --> 01:00:25,080 Speaker 1: through Flacco's arm right now, So Mynie Collins actually catch 1167 01:00:25,080 --> 01:00:27,600 Speaker 1: a couple of passes which you will do per game. Uh. 1168 01:00:27,640 --> 01:00:30,439 Speaker 1: Carolina kept Phillies committee in check last week, but they've 1169 01:00:30,480 --> 01:00:32,640 Speaker 1: given up big games to opposing lead backs in each 1170 01:00:32,680 --> 01:00:35,840 Speaker 1: other game. So I think Collins is still very startable 1171 01:00:35,880 --> 01:00:37,280 Speaker 1: here with a B grade, but he doesn't get a 1172 01:00:37,280 --> 01:00:39,440 Speaker 1: ton of volume and Bunk Allen is on the bench. 1173 01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:43,320 Speaker 1: Let's go to the Carolina side. Cam Newton's toughest matchup 1174 01:00:43,480 --> 01:00:46,080 Speaker 1: of the year. If you're ever gonna bunch Cam, this 1175 01:00:46,160 --> 01:00:48,040 Speaker 1: is it. We had a guy this morning. We told 1176 01:00:48,080 --> 01:00:50,560 Speaker 1: him Mayfield over Cam. Yeah, I've got Cam way down 1177 01:00:50,600 --> 01:00:55,840 Speaker 1: at quarterback number sevent You probably have another quarterback on 1178 01:00:55,920 --> 01:00:59,560 Speaker 1: roster that I like, bar Um. The Ravens secondary is awesome. 1179 01:00:59,600 --> 01:01:02,160 Speaker 1: They ranked number two in passing yards allowed, number three 1180 01:01:02,160 --> 01:01:05,680 Speaker 1: in passing touchdowns allowed. And what's more, Newton isn't likely 1181 01:01:05,720 --> 01:01:07,960 Speaker 1: to rush for a score. The Ravens haven't given up 1182 01:01:07,960 --> 01:01:12,400 Speaker 1: a rushing touchdown to a quarterback in twenty five straight games. 1183 01:01:12,440 --> 01:01:16,920 Speaker 1: So Cam Newton's brutal to start this week. Let's go 1184 01:01:17,200 --> 01:01:19,120 Speaker 1: staying with the passing game. The only other guys who 1185 01:01:19,120 --> 01:01:21,240 Speaker 1: can consider starting or Devin Funches, who has hit the 1186 01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:24,400 Speaker 1: one hundred yard mark just once in his last thirty 1187 01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:28,000 Speaker 1: nine games. How does it? How does any number one 1188 01:01:28,040 --> 01:01:31,480 Speaker 1: receiver only get one hundred yard game once in thirty 1189 01:01:31,560 --> 01:01:34,240 Speaker 1: nine games. You know what you're gonna get from him. 1190 01:01:34,240 --> 01:01:36,479 Speaker 1: It's sixty yards a decent chance of a touch down. 1191 01:01:36,520 --> 01:01:38,800 Speaker 1: He's scored him three the past four games. Um, and 1192 01:01:38,840 --> 01:01:41,640 Speaker 1: it is a touchdown that could salvage his game. The 1193 01:01:41,720 --> 01:01:44,120 Speaker 1: Ravens give up the second fewest yards to receivers, but 1194 01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:47,040 Speaker 1: they are giving up one touchdown per game to the position. 1195 01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:49,840 Speaker 1: So if there's gonna be one touchdown catch to be 1196 01:01:49,880 --> 01:01:51,960 Speaker 1: had here, it'll go to Funches. So we'll try him 1197 01:01:51,960 --> 01:01:55,640 Speaker 1: at a see grade. Greg Olsen has been miserable since 1198 01:01:55,640 --> 01:01:59,000 Speaker 1: his return, but the Ravens have had some difficulty with 1199 01:01:59,040 --> 01:02:02,080 Speaker 1: tight ends, allowing the most receptions eleventh most yards at 1200 01:02:02,120 --> 01:02:03,880 Speaker 1: tight ends. They hadn't given up a score to a 1201 01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:06,840 Speaker 1: tight end until last week. Um, I've got to barely 1202 01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:10,080 Speaker 1: see grade on greg Olsen only because he's a tight 1203 01:02:10,200 --> 01:02:14,320 Speaker 1: end and the position so thin. Really. Lastly, Christian McCaffrey 1204 01:02:14,480 --> 01:02:18,120 Speaker 1: also his toughest matchup of the year. Baltimore is allowed 1205 01:02:18,160 --> 01:02:20,760 Speaker 1: the fewest fantasy points to running backs. They ranked fourth 1206 01:02:20,760 --> 01:02:23,280 Speaker 1: in yards per carry. They've only given up two rushing 1207 01:02:23,280 --> 01:02:25,480 Speaker 1: touchdowns all year, and they lead the league in the 1208 01:02:25,480 --> 01:02:28,480 Speaker 1: fewest receiving yards, the fewest catches, and the fewest touchdowns 1209 01:02:28,480 --> 01:02:31,520 Speaker 1: allowed to running backs. There is no angle of positive 1210 01:02:31,840 --> 01:02:35,640 Speaker 1: positivity for Christian McCaffrey from a matchup standpoint none. He's 1211 01:02:35,680 --> 01:02:38,440 Speaker 1: a guy he's gonna struggle mightily that you're alluding to, 1212 01:02:38,560 --> 01:02:41,080 Speaker 1: but by Low on him after this game, I feel like, yeah, 1213 01:02:41,440 --> 01:02:43,480 Speaker 1: this is gonna be like his third or fourth straight 1214 01:02:43,640 --> 01:02:46,040 Speaker 1: bad game potentially, And you're right, this might be your 1215 01:02:46,040 --> 01:02:48,200 Speaker 1: by Low moment. It's just been a series of tough 1216 01:02:48,240 --> 01:02:51,400 Speaker 1: matchups for Christian McCaffrey. We'll take a break. When we 1217 01:02:51,440 --> 01:02:56,040 Speaker 1: come back. Another set of matchups for you, including Packers 1218 01:02:56,240 --> 01:02:59,040 Speaker 1: taking on the Rams. Is there anybody to bench in 1219 01:02:59,080 --> 01:03:02,000 Speaker 1: this game? Can you go right back to Geronimo Allison. 1220 01:03:02,040 --> 01:03:04,120 Speaker 1: We'll talk about that when we come back.

Grain 1248 01:04:50,280 --> 01:04:54,200 Speaker 1: belt dot Com. Let's dive back into the matchups. Packers 1249 01:04:54,200 --> 01:05:00,000 Speaker 1: take on the Rams, Scott and you know, yeah, start everybody. 1250 01:05:00,280 --> 01:05:02,920 Speaker 1: But I've gotten a ton of questions about Geronimo Allison 1251 01:05:02,960 --> 01:05:05,040 Speaker 1: in particular, and I want to know what you're thinking. 1252 01:05:05,120 --> 01:05:07,520 Speaker 1: I I like him here, Yeah he has. He has 1253 01:05:07,520 --> 01:05:09,760 Speaker 1: at least sixty yards and twelve and a half PPR 1254 01:05:09,840 --> 01:05:12,360 Speaker 1: points in all four games that he's played this season. 1255 01:05:13,200 --> 01:05:16,040 Speaker 1: The second receiver, the second receiver for the Packers has 1256 01:05:16,040 --> 01:05:19,360 Speaker 1: had at least six targets in every game this season, 1257 01:05:19,560 --> 01:05:21,280 Speaker 1: and he has at least five catches in three of 1258 01:05:21,320 --> 01:05:22,680 Speaker 1: his four games. I think this is gonna be a 1259 01:05:22,680 --> 01:05:24,760 Speaker 1: shootout with that fifty six and a half over under. 1260 01:05:25,160 --> 01:05:28,040 Speaker 1: So Allison is the guy I actually like more than Cobb. 1261 01:05:28,120 --> 01:05:30,080 Speaker 1: I gave Allison a B grade. I gave cop a 1262 01:05:30,160 --> 01:05:32,320 Speaker 1: C grade. I don't know if he's going to play exactly. 1263 01:05:32,560 --> 01:05:36,960 Speaker 1: He practiced fully. He's questionable, but he practiced fully. Here's me, 1264 01:05:37,000 --> 01:05:40,360 Speaker 1: here's my concerns. Will he play? And he hasn't top 1265 01:05:40,440 --> 01:05:44,720 Speaker 1: thirty yards since Week one, Heelan and Sanders had good 1266 01:05:44,760 --> 01:05:48,480 Speaker 1: games in the slot against the Rams. Everyone else disappeared. Uh, Cobb, 1267 01:05:48,560 --> 01:05:51,280 Speaker 1: I mean watch it. I want available in a lot 1268 01:05:51,320 --> 01:05:54,440 Speaker 1: of leagues. Yeah, I want pieces in the shootout, but 1269 01:05:54,480 --> 01:05:57,960 Speaker 1: he's barely a C grade for me. Adams is an obviously, 1270 01:05:58,080 --> 01:06:00,640 Speaker 1: and so is Rogers. I mean Rivers, Will some Keendom, 1271 01:06:00,640 --> 01:06:03,000 Speaker 1: Cousins all had great Fantasy days. Even Carr had three 1272 01:06:03,080 --> 01:06:06,200 Speaker 1: hundred yards. Teams have to keep up, and Adams is 1273 01:06:06,280 --> 01:06:09,000 Speaker 1: the top option. Both A grades there. Jimmy Graham I 1274 01:06:09,040 --> 01:06:11,200 Speaker 1: gave a C grade to he has twenty targets and 1275 01:06:11,200 --> 01:06:13,880 Speaker 1: a hundred eighty yards over the last two weeks. But 1276 01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:16,920 Speaker 1: those twenty targets he only averages five and a half 1277 01:06:17,080 --> 01:06:20,880 Speaker 1: per game with Cobb and Allison in so he expected 1278 01:06:20,960 --> 01:06:24,080 Speaker 1: drop here. Um, yeah, even though it's going to be 1279 01:06:24,120 --> 01:06:28,040 Speaker 1: a shootout, I expect to drop so. Uh. The Rams 1280 01:06:28,080 --> 01:06:30,920 Speaker 1: their teenthins tight ends, but that's partially due to huge 1281 01:06:30,920 --> 01:06:34,480 Speaker 1: games against Kittle and Cook all the others. No otherwise, 1282 01:06:34,560 --> 01:06:37,240 Speaker 1: no other tight end had over twenty five yards except 1283 01:06:37,280 --> 01:06:39,680 Speaker 1: for those two. So I'm a little hesitant there. The 1284 01:06:39,760 --> 01:06:42,040 Speaker 1: running game. I'm benching it because how many times at 1285 01:06:42,040 --> 01:06:44,080 Speaker 1: Green Bay running back his top sixt yards this year 1286 01:06:44,280 --> 01:06:48,760 Speaker 1: rushing one just once and they only have two rushing touchdowns. Yeah, 1287 01:06:48,880 --> 01:06:51,680 Speaker 1: it's just it's a wreck. Yeah, here's at this point, 1288 01:06:52,040 --> 01:06:55,320 Speaker 1: I'm done guessing when Mike McCarthy will play Aaron Jones. 1289 01:06:55,360 --> 01:06:57,240 Speaker 1: I'm going to wait for him to play Aaron Jones 1290 01:06:57,280 --> 01:06:59,320 Speaker 1: a bunch and then I'll react to it. I'm done 1291 01:06:59,320 --> 01:07:02,160 Speaker 1: guessing ahead of Yeah, the Rams are allowing four point 1292 01:07:02,240 --> 01:07:05,440 Speaker 1: six yards per carry to running max, which is seventh worst, 1293 01:07:05,680 --> 01:07:08,720 Speaker 1: but everyone abandons the run against them, so nobody can 1294 01:07:08,800 --> 01:07:12,240 Speaker 1: rack up enough yards. Uh. On the on the Ram side, 1295 01:07:12,440 --> 01:07:15,760 Speaker 1: I got a's on everyone. Cup is doubtful and very 1296 01:07:15,920 --> 01:07:19,880 Speaker 1: very very unlikely to play, so I'm benching him. But 1297 01:07:19,920 --> 01:07:21,760 Speaker 1: I got I I don't even know that I need 1298 01:07:21,800 --> 01:07:24,160 Speaker 1: to go through it. But Reynolds I'm benching as well, 1299 01:07:24,240 --> 01:07:25,920 Speaker 1: just to put that out there. He has two targets 1300 01:07:25,920 --> 01:07:28,680 Speaker 1: in the last two weeks with Cup out, which I 1301 01:07:28,760 --> 01:07:30,960 Speaker 1: thought you'd do more. Yeah, it's not happy. Yeah, but 1302 01:07:30,960 --> 01:07:35,640 Speaker 1: you're starting Girley Cooks Woods Golf. They're all a grades great. Yeah, 1303 01:07:35,680 --> 01:07:37,960 Speaker 1: Yeah that's all Yeah, No, no more really needs to 1304 01:07:37,960 --> 01:07:41,000 Speaker 1: be said, all right. Forty nine take on the Cardinals. Brian, 1305 01:07:41,120 --> 01:07:42,840 Speaker 1: I love where Hee most. He was might take a 1306 01:07:42,920 --> 01:07:45,200 Speaker 1: chance to me running back. We talked about him earlier, 1307 01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:47,200 Speaker 1: A great chance of going here. Even if Matt Breed 1308 01:07:47,320 --> 01:07:49,440 Speaker 1: is active, I don't think he's gonna get a lot 1309 01:07:49,480 --> 01:07:50,919 Speaker 1: of work in this game as they try to finally 1310 01:07:50,960 --> 01:07:54,200 Speaker 1: get him healthy. No, you know they bread forced himself 1311 01:07:54,280 --> 01:07:57,280 Speaker 1: on the field last week, lasted about five carries. So yeah, 1312 01:07:57,360 --> 01:07:59,920 Speaker 1: so Monster, it's a great play either way. And bread A, 1313 01:08:00,040 --> 01:08:01,840 Speaker 1: if he is active, I think you gotta air on 1314 01:08:01,880 --> 01:08:03,440 Speaker 1: the side of caution and sit him if you ow. 1315 01:08:03,520 --> 01:08:05,280 Speaker 1: And I said, we'll say he's on the bench regardless 1316 01:08:05,320 --> 01:08:08,800 Speaker 1: of being active or not. Let's go to the already 1317 01:08:08,840 --> 01:08:11,120 Speaker 1: when was already one of my favorite players, and now 1318 01:08:11,240 --> 01:08:15,360 Speaker 1: he is my favorite player. George Kittle say, this man 1319 01:08:15,520 --> 01:08:18,200 Speaker 1: wants to score for his fantasy owners. He doesn't care. 1320 01:08:18,400 --> 01:08:20,280 Speaker 1: Did you see that last team? Did you see this? 1321 01:08:21,520 --> 01:08:23,360 Speaker 1: For those who didn't hear this, While his touchdown was 1322 01:08:23,400 --> 01:08:27,120 Speaker 1: getting reviewed, he was picked up on micro whatever saying Tara, 1323 01:08:27,200 --> 01:08:28,960 Speaker 1: I gotta get this one from my fantasy owners. He 1324 01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:30,720 Speaker 1: didn't know it for himself. He didn't want it for 1325 01:08:30,800 --> 01:08:33,960 Speaker 1: the forty niners. He wanted it for his fancy. Yeah, 1326 01:08:34,040 --> 01:08:35,960 Speaker 1: these teams have met a few weeks ago. By the way, 1327 01:08:36,000 --> 01:08:38,240 Speaker 1: I Kidi had five catches for eighty three yards. That's 1328 01:08:38,240 --> 01:08:39,840 Speaker 1: a safe floor here. He gets an A for me. 1329 01:08:40,040 --> 01:08:42,439 Speaker 1: Brual matchup, though Arizona has been great against the tight 1330 01:08:42,520 --> 01:08:45,120 Speaker 1: end positions. But that's the only thing, haven't They haven't 1331 01:08:45,160 --> 01:08:47,599 Speaker 1: faced a lot of good tight ends. Jordan Reid had 1332 01:08:47,640 --> 01:08:50,200 Speaker 1: four for forty eight and a touchdown. Tyler Higbee managed 1333 01:08:50,240 --> 01:08:53,280 Speaker 1: to score. Yeah, if you're counting up Matt Lacos as 1334 01:08:53,360 --> 01:08:56,559 Speaker 1: a competition at the tight end position, then they're tough. 1335 01:08:57,160 --> 01:08:59,599 Speaker 1: Kid will gets the A mark, he's Goodwin gets the opposite. 1336 01:08:59,600 --> 01:09:01,639 Speaker 1: He's on the bench. He's gonna draw Pat Pete. It's 1337 01:09:01,720 --> 01:09:03,639 Speaker 1: that simple. I don't like good Win in this game. 1338 01:09:04,080 --> 01:09:07,840 Speaker 1: Pierre Garson not expected to play, not that you're contemplating 1339 01:09:07,880 --> 01:09:10,519 Speaker 1: starting him, but here's a sneaky play. A bonus take 1340 01:09:10,520 --> 01:09:13,120 Speaker 1: com is Trent Taylor, who had seven catches for sixty 1341 01:09:13,160 --> 01:09:15,240 Speaker 1: one yards in a touchdown when these teams made a 1342 01:09:15,240 --> 01:09:17,960 Speaker 1: few weeks ago. And slot receivers have been doing very 1343 01:09:18,000 --> 01:09:20,439 Speaker 1: well against the Cardinals because Pat Pete will not travel there. 1344 01:09:20,720 --> 01:09:23,000 Speaker 1: Manny Sanders six for one oh two and a touchdown, 1345 01:09:23,040 --> 01:09:26,640 Speaker 1: Adam thieland eleven fore and one. Granted Trent Taylor is 1346 01:09:26,680 --> 01:09:29,519 Speaker 1: not those guys, but then target totals for slot receivers 1347 01:09:29,560 --> 01:09:32,160 Speaker 1: and games before that, Doug Baldwin coming off injury saw 1348 01:09:32,200 --> 01:09:35,240 Speaker 1: seven targets, Taylor Gabriel saw ten. So Trent Taylor is 1349 01:09:35,240 --> 01:09:37,080 Speaker 1: gonna be involved in this game. So he gets a 1350 01:09:37,120 --> 01:09:39,639 Speaker 1: CEE for me. But CJ be Third is on the bench. 1351 01:09:39,680 --> 01:09:41,880 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna go into that too much. More over 1352 01:09:41,960 --> 01:09:45,360 Speaker 1: to day, Uh the Cardinals side, David Johnson, gonna give 1353 01:09:45,400 --> 01:09:47,600 Speaker 1: him an a here, managed to score twice in the 1354 01:09:47,640 --> 01:09:50,400 Speaker 1: first meeting, despite the fact that Mike McCoy was employed 1355 01:09:50,520 --> 01:09:53,240 Speaker 1: by the Cardinals at the time. But uh, San Francisco 1356 01:09:53,240 --> 01:09:55,280 Speaker 1: allowing a hundred and thirty combo yards and one and 1357 01:09:55,280 --> 01:09:57,360 Speaker 1: a half touchdowns for games to run per game to 1358 01:09:57,439 --> 01:10:00,200 Speaker 1: running backs left, which is gonna get Johnson involved? Wan 1359 01:10:00,240 --> 01:10:02,880 Speaker 1: this one a plus for me actually with David Johnson, 1360 01:10:03,320 --> 01:10:05,920 Speaker 1: Christian Kirk and give him a see he's starting to emerge. 1361 01:10:06,120 --> 01:10:08,240 Speaker 1: At least seventy five yards and or a touchdown in 1362 01:10:08,280 --> 01:10:10,840 Speaker 1: three of his last five games, had three catches for 1363 01:10:10,880 --> 01:10:12,920 Speaker 1: eighty five yards in a touchdown in the first meeting. 1364 01:10:13,160 --> 01:10:15,360 Speaker 1: The Niners have allowed four wide receiver touchdowns in the 1365 01:10:15,600 --> 01:10:18,000 Speaker 1: last three games, and they could still be without Richard Sherman. 1366 01:10:18,320 --> 01:10:21,200 Speaker 1: So Kirk is viable and so is Larry Fitzgerald. Just 1367 01:10:21,280 --> 01:10:22,960 Speaker 1: to see for him though. He was quiet in the 1368 01:10:23,000 --> 01:10:26,599 Speaker 1: first meeting, but he wasn't near on uh PPR leagues. 1369 01:10:26,680 --> 01:10:28,439 Speaker 1: He's tough to sit. So he just gets a C 1370 01:10:28,680 --> 01:10:32,720 Speaker 1: for me, as does Ricky Seals Jones. Uh, this is 1371 01:10:32,800 --> 01:10:37,000 Speaker 1: tight ends. Just you actually sounded constipated saying his name. 1372 01:10:39,600 --> 01:10:43,160 Speaker 1: Ye R s J was targeted six times in the 1373 01:10:43,240 --> 01:10:46,000 Speaker 1: first meeting. Did not catch a pass though, but the 1374 01:10:46,200 --> 01:10:49,479 Speaker 1: usage was there, and uh, Jimmy Graham has put put 1375 01:10:49,520 --> 01:10:53,639 Speaker 1: a big numbers against San fran and Uh so rs 1376 01:10:53,720 --> 01:10:56,360 Speaker 1: J is viable in a depleted tight end landscape, but 1377 01:10:56,479 --> 01:11:00,280 Speaker 1: Josh Rosen on the bench. Let's wrap up this sigment 1378 01:11:00,320 --> 01:11:04,000 Speaker 1: with Vikings and Saints on Sunday night. From the Vikings side, 1379 01:11:04,120 --> 01:11:06,080 Speaker 1: you're gonna see a lot of passing from Kirk Cousins 1380 01:11:06,120 --> 01:11:08,640 Speaker 1: in this game. Saints are the best run defense and 1381 01:11:08,720 --> 01:11:11,000 Speaker 1: the Vikings offensive line just isn't up to the challenge 1382 01:11:11,040 --> 01:11:13,160 Speaker 1: of trying to maintain a running game that, in fairness 1383 01:11:13,200 --> 01:11:15,560 Speaker 1: has been good the last two weeks, but won't be 1384 01:11:15,680 --> 01:11:19,000 Speaker 1: here Vikings Uh Saints giving up just two point eight 1385 01:11:19,120 --> 01:11:21,439 Speaker 1: yards per carry to opposing running backs number one in 1386 01:11:21,479 --> 01:11:24,120 Speaker 1: the league, forty seven yards per game to opposing running 1387 01:11:24,120 --> 01:11:26,360 Speaker 1: backs number one in the league. So tons, and by 1388 01:11:26,400 --> 01:11:28,600 Speaker 1: the way, that's why Lottavias Murray's on the bench in 1389 01:11:28,680 --> 01:11:30,599 Speaker 1: this game. I don't think he's gonna get enough work here. 1390 01:11:30,640 --> 01:11:33,920 Speaker 1: Your only hope is a goal line run from Lottavia's Murray. 1391 01:11:33,920 --> 01:11:36,479 Speaker 1: You're playing for touchdowns, and we can't say for sure 1392 01:11:36,560 --> 01:11:38,960 Speaker 1: that that's going to happen. This game goes through Kirk 1393 01:11:39,040 --> 01:11:41,479 Speaker 1: Cousins armed. I believe the Vikings will be playing from 1394 01:11:41,520 --> 01:11:44,080 Speaker 1: behind due to the injuries that they've got, and Kirk's 1395 01:11:44,080 --> 01:11:46,040 Speaker 1: gonna have to throw to keep up. And the Vikings 1396 01:11:46,120 --> 01:11:49,360 Speaker 1: throw the third most times per game anyway, And so 1397 01:11:49,520 --> 01:11:51,160 Speaker 1: I've got an a grade on Kirk if not if 1398 01:11:51,240 --> 01:11:53,879 Speaker 1: only through volume, if nothing else. Although the Saints secondary 1399 01:11:54,000 --> 01:11:56,479 Speaker 1: has improved over the last three games, giving up two 1400 01:11:56,680 --> 01:11:58,479 Speaker 1: d seventy yards and one scored per game over the 1401 01:11:58,600 --> 01:12:01,080 Speaker 1: last three, but Cousins will get there on volume. I 1402 01:12:01,120 --> 01:12:06,839 Speaker 1: expect passes in this one. Adam Theland a great matchup. 1403 01:12:06,920 --> 01:12:09,000 Speaker 1: I had a good matchup last week, great matchup this 1404 01:12:09,120 --> 01:12:12,120 Speaker 1: week too. He draws slot cornerback P J. Williams, who's 1405 01:12:12,160 --> 01:12:14,400 Speaker 1: one of the worst at his position. He is allowing 1406 01:12:14,800 --> 01:12:20,360 Speaker 1: a quarterback passer rating of one hundred forty six against him. 1407 01:12:20,760 --> 01:12:23,639 Speaker 1: P J. Williams, and he's going to cover Adam Theeland, 1408 01:12:23,640 --> 01:12:26,839 Speaker 1: the hottest receiver in football. I love I love Theland's 1409 01:12:26,840 --> 01:12:30,000 Speaker 1: opportunity here. Stefan Diggs gets the flip side of that 1410 01:12:30,080 --> 01:12:33,920 Speaker 1: and potentially very tough matchup again. He gets Marshawn Lattimer, 1411 01:12:33,960 --> 01:12:37,880 Speaker 1: who typically shadows the opponent's best outside receiver. Lattimer got 1412 01:12:37,960 --> 01:12:40,599 Speaker 1: roasted in the opener in Week one, but since then 1413 01:12:40,680 --> 01:12:45,160 Speaker 1: he's been much better. Get this, Lattimer's averaging twenty nine 1414 01:12:45,240 --> 01:12:48,960 Speaker 1: yards per game in his coverage. That's it. So Diggs 1415 01:12:49,040 --> 01:12:51,400 Speaker 1: is only a beast start in this game. Um Eli 1416 01:12:51,479 --> 01:12:53,320 Speaker 1: Apple should not be a factor. I don't think this 1417 01:12:53,520 --> 01:12:57,799 Speaker 1: early in the game. Then, Kyle Rudolph. Saints have surrendered 1418 01:12:57,840 --> 01:13:00,080 Speaker 1: only one touchdown to a tight end all year, and 1419 01:13:00,200 --> 01:13:02,120 Speaker 1: since Week one they haven't allowed any tight end to 1420 01:13:02,160 --> 01:13:05,160 Speaker 1: reach even thirty yards. So Cal Rodolph sums down to 1421 01:13:05,200 --> 01:13:07,120 Speaker 1: a C again. I think only through volume. Do I 1422 01:13:07,200 --> 01:13:09,200 Speaker 1: like him here, and ideally if he played a different position, 1423 01:13:09,240 --> 01:13:11,800 Speaker 1: he wouldn't be startable. But again, you gotta basically start 1424 01:13:11,880 --> 01:13:14,240 Speaker 1: every plausible tight end and fantasy. So I give him 1425 01:13:14,280 --> 01:13:17,960 Speaker 1: a C grade here. Saint side so many people that 1426 01:13:18,040 --> 01:13:20,760 Speaker 1: I like against the injury depleted Vikings. Anthony Barr has 1427 01:13:20,800 --> 01:13:23,719 Speaker 1: been ruled out of this game. I don't think Xavier 1428 01:13:23,800 --> 01:13:25,720 Speaker 1: Rhodes is gonna go. I think the warm up they'll 1429 01:13:25,760 --> 01:13:29,360 Speaker 1: try to see what the ankles like uh on on Sunday. 1430 01:13:29,439 --> 01:13:31,920 Speaker 1: But even so, this is it's it's a super dicey 1431 01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:35,200 Speaker 1: start here. Michael Thomas is an A grade no matter what. 1432 01:13:35,640 --> 01:13:38,080 Speaker 1: He's an A plus grade if Xavier Rhodes can't go, 1433 01:13:38,400 --> 01:13:40,559 Speaker 1: and if we like Thomas that much, obviously Drew Brees 1434 01:13:40,600 --> 01:13:42,920 Speaker 1: is an A grade here as well. Um and one 1435 01:13:42,960 --> 01:13:45,439 Speaker 1: of the key reasons Anthony Barr is not gonna play. 1436 01:13:45,640 --> 01:13:48,479 Speaker 1: And if without Anthony Barr, that means Alvin Kamara, who 1437 01:13:48,479 --> 01:13:52,080 Speaker 1: would normally be covered by Bar, their fastest of their linebackers, 1438 01:13:52,680 --> 01:13:56,240 Speaker 1: doesn't have that. Trent Cannon just put up seventy yards 1439 01:13:56,280 --> 01:13:59,240 Speaker 1: on the Vikings through the air last week, much of 1440 01:13:59,320 --> 01:14:02,800 Speaker 1: that coming after Anthony Barr was out, so they're gonna 1441 01:14:02,880 --> 01:14:05,600 Speaker 1: do the same things coming Comari's potentially sitting on a 1442 01:14:05,760 --> 01:14:08,280 Speaker 1: very big game. He's got an A grade as well. 1443 01:14:09,560 --> 01:14:12,200 Speaker 1: While we're talking running backs, mark Ingram gets a B 1444 01:14:12,400 --> 01:14:14,599 Speaker 1: grade because the Vikings is just a straight up run 1445 01:14:14,680 --> 01:14:17,400 Speaker 1: defense is good and Linval Joseph should come back. In 1446 01:14:17,479 --> 01:14:19,559 Speaker 1: the last three outings, the Vikings have only given up 1447 01:14:19,640 --> 01:14:23,320 Speaker 1: fifty six yards on the ground per game. Only Todd 1448 01:14:23,360 --> 01:14:26,599 Speaker 1: Gurley is top fifty nine yards individually against the Vikings 1449 01:14:26,720 --> 01:14:29,960 Speaker 1: all season long. So I've just got a B grade 1450 01:14:30,000 --> 01:14:32,080 Speaker 1: on mark Ingram in one of his toughest assignments of 1451 01:14:32,200 --> 01:14:34,559 Speaker 1: the year. Back to the passing game for a minute, 1452 01:14:34,600 --> 01:14:38,120 Speaker 1: Tray Kwon Smith will draw Trey Waynes and a speed 1453 01:14:38,400 --> 01:14:41,080 Speaker 1: versus speed matchup. I don't think he gets a lot 1454 01:14:41,120 --> 01:14:42,920 Speaker 1: of receptions here, but he could turn one of them 1455 01:14:42,960 --> 01:14:45,040 Speaker 1: into a long game. It's a high risk higher word play. 1456 01:14:45,040 --> 01:14:47,479 Speaker 1: A C grade on Trey Kwan Smith, a C grade 1457 01:14:47,520 --> 01:14:49,719 Speaker 1: on Cameron Meredith because the Vikings are without their slack 1458 01:14:49,760 --> 01:14:53,000 Speaker 1: cornerback Mike Hughes and his backup Mackenzie Alexander might be 1459 01:14:53,160 --> 01:14:56,000 Speaker 1: forced to go outside and play Michael Thomas. If Xavier 1460 01:14:56,080 --> 01:14:57,720 Speaker 1: Rhodes can't play, and I don't think Xavier Rhode is 1461 01:14:57,760 --> 01:15:01,400 Speaker 1: gonna play, so Cameron Merrit a sneaky start as well, 1462 01:15:01,560 --> 01:15:03,439 Speaker 1: and Ben Watson was to take a chance on me 1463 01:15:03,960 --> 01:15:07,240 Speaker 1: tight end that Brian told you about earlier. We'll take 1464 01:15:07,280 --> 01:15:09,679 Speaker 1: a break when we come back. Premature Speculation our final 1465 01:15:09,720 --> 01:15:12,479 Speaker 1: matchup of the day, and your phone calls in lightning round. 1466 01:15:13,160 --> 01:15:18,120 Speaker 1: This is Fantasy Football Weekly, presented by devanies on a Man. 1467 01:15:18,840 --> 01:15:21,800 Speaker 1: It's Saturday oct What's new today on the Free I 1468 01:15:21,880 --> 01:15:31,720 Speaker 1: Heart Radio. After final segment of Fantasy Football Weekly, what's 1469 01:15:31,760 --> 01:15:34,320 Speaker 1: coming up with you? And tell me? We've got over 1470 01:15:34,479 --> 01:15:37,400 Speaker 1: time with Carly Zooker, some vikings rewind, and then we're 1471 01:15:37,400 --> 01:15:41,320 Speaker 1: gonna join Wisconsin and Northwestern had progress at walk all right, 1472 01:15:41,479 --> 01:15:43,719 Speaker 1: that's as much Wisconsin as I want is in progress, 1473 01:15:43,920 --> 01:15:47,360 Speaker 1: thank you? Currently tight at seven. Premature Speculation is a 1474 01:15:47,479 --> 01:15:49,920 Speaker 1: segment we do every week in which we identify a 1475 01:15:50,360 --> 01:15:52,519 Speaker 1: player who we think you should pick up now that 1476 01:15:52,600 --> 01:15:55,320 Speaker 1: will be a hotter waiver wire pick up next week, 1477 01:15:55,800 --> 01:15:58,559 Speaker 1: but he's already on your roster because you're a week ahead. Scott, 1478 01:15:58,680 --> 01:16:00,920 Speaker 1: who you got? You know, we kind of talked about 1479 01:16:00,960 --> 01:16:03,439 Speaker 1: this a little bit with Jordy Nelson, But I think 1480 01:16:03,479 --> 01:16:07,840 Speaker 1: Martavis Bryant, who's only eight percent ESPN, It's possible you've 1481 01:16:07,840 --> 01:16:10,120 Speaker 1: gotten him. You've got him already, but the numbers on 1482 01:16:10,200 --> 01:16:13,760 Speaker 1: the sites don't show that you do. So who his 1483 01:16:13,880 --> 01:16:17,200 Speaker 1: schedule is on REO, with that Pittsburgh Cincinnati, Denver playoffs 1484 01:16:17,200 --> 01:16:19,280 Speaker 1: schedule and a lot of other great matchups, I put 1485 01:16:19,320 --> 01:16:23,160 Speaker 1: down Martavis Bryant all right. My prespect is a little 1486 01:16:23,200 --> 01:16:26,680 Speaker 1: more for the Dynasty end or super flex crowd. But 1487 01:16:26,760 --> 01:16:32,160 Speaker 1: I'm going New York Giants Kyle because quite simply, Eli 1488 01:16:32,320 --> 01:16:38,120 Speaker 1: Mann cooked and Uh from the University of Richmond, smaller school, 1489 01:16:38,160 --> 01:16:40,400 Speaker 1: big body quarterback picked in the fourth round. The guys 1490 01:16:40,400 --> 01:16:41,800 Speaker 1: are gonna see what they have in him, and there 1491 01:16:41,800 --> 01:16:44,320 Speaker 1: are a couple of good spots coming up. Uh next 1492 01:16:44,400 --> 01:16:47,080 Speaker 1: week at San Francisco could be a viable start for 1493 01:16:47,240 --> 01:16:50,920 Speaker 1: Kyle or the following week at home against the Buccaneers. 1494 01:16:51,080 --> 01:16:53,840 Speaker 1: Is any good we'll find that. I mean what I'm saying, 1495 01:16:53,880 --> 01:16:59,360 Speaker 1: it's we'll think the weapons New York has and why 1496 01:16:59,400 --> 01:17:02,200 Speaker 1: don't they trade from I don't know what are we 1497 01:17:02,280 --> 01:17:06,240 Speaker 1: allowed to do? Dynasty ones now? Guess yeah, I'm gonna 1498 01:17:06,280 --> 01:17:08,960 Speaker 1: throw it out. Chris Chris Warren of Oakland. Yeah, there 1499 01:17:09,000 --> 01:17:11,720 Speaker 1: you go, Chris war next year, get him. Stashum and 1500 01:17:11,840 --> 01:17:15,200 Speaker 1: I are yeah yeah, because Martin and Binch, I don't 1501 01:17:15,240 --> 01:17:19,360 Speaker 1: know they're not back start back. He might be peewee 1502 01:17:19,400 --> 01:17:22,280 Speaker 1: football prospects too. If you need him, yes, I do, Yeah, 1503 01:17:22,400 --> 01:17:26,720 Speaker 1: contact Jiffanni. Bernard is due to come back as early 1504 01:17:26,800 --> 01:17:29,120 Speaker 1: as next week, and you want to have You want 1505 01:17:29,120 --> 01:17:31,679 Speaker 1: to have the handcuff in this deal if nothing else, 1506 01:17:31,720 --> 01:17:34,040 Speaker 1: and then Bernard likely Mixing is getting a lot of 1507 01:17:34,120 --> 01:17:35,920 Speaker 1: run as a workhorse right now. I think they want 1508 01:17:35,960 --> 01:17:38,000 Speaker 1: to work Mixing. The want to work Bernard in once 1509 01:17:38,040 --> 01:17:40,040 Speaker 1: he's healthy, which could be as soon as next week. 1510 01:17:40,120 --> 01:17:42,519 Speaker 1: When reports start showing up on Wednesday of next week 1511 01:17:42,720 --> 01:17:45,920 Speaker 1: about how Bernard has returned to practice, other people are 1512 01:17:45,960 --> 01:17:47,960 Speaker 1: gonna go swoop up, swoop him up, and you want 1513 01:17:48,000 --> 01:17:51,360 Speaker 1: to go get him. Now, let's do our final matchup, Scott. 1514 01:17:51,760 --> 01:17:54,200 Speaker 1: It's the Monday Night or Patriots against the Bills. As 1515 01:17:54,240 --> 01:17:58,040 Speaker 1: we mentioned earlier in the show, Sony Michelle shockingly practicing. 1516 01:17:58,080 --> 01:17:59,479 Speaker 1: But I don't think you want to you want to 1517 01:17:59,479 --> 01:18:01,960 Speaker 1: start a here, No, But luckily this is it feels 1518 01:18:01,960 --> 01:18:04,640 Speaker 1: like a game where you have several potential pivots or 1519 01:18:04,760 --> 01:18:06,400 Speaker 1: at least a pivot or two if you can go 1520 01:18:06,520 --> 01:18:10,200 Speaker 1: get Ivory right. Um for on the path side, I 1521 01:18:10,320 --> 01:18:12,519 Speaker 1: still gave Brady and a I think they're going to 1522 01:18:12,640 --> 01:18:16,200 Speaker 1: get ahead the bull the Bills. The Bills defense has 1523 01:18:16,240 --> 01:18:19,760 Speaker 1: been pretty good against against quarterbacks, but Brady has at 1524 01:18:19,800 --> 01:18:22,280 Speaker 1: least three hundred yards and our multiple touchdowns in every 1525 01:18:22,360 --> 01:18:26,080 Speaker 1: game except for except for that Lion's dud um And 1526 01:18:26,160 --> 01:18:28,280 Speaker 1: if you look look deeper in the numbers against the Bills, 1527 01:18:28,280 --> 01:18:31,080 Speaker 1: I mean Cousins and Rogers just barely missed three hundred 1528 01:18:31,680 --> 01:18:34,240 Speaker 1: Flacco rivers and luck all had three touchdowns. I'm fine 1529 01:18:34,240 --> 01:18:39,080 Speaker 1: with Brady. Hey grade A grade for Gordon. I'm looking 1530 01:18:39,120 --> 01:18:42,479 Speaker 1: for your reaction on that, because I yeah, pent the 1531 01:18:42,520 --> 01:18:45,680 Speaker 1: snaps last week, last two weeks ago, and not just 1532 01:18:45,760 --> 01:18:48,760 Speaker 1: his first hundred yard game over seventeen yards per catch 1533 01:18:48,840 --> 01:18:51,479 Speaker 1: with the Pats, sixteen targets over the last two weeks. 1534 01:18:51,720 --> 01:18:55,080 Speaker 1: He's the main guy there. B grade for Edelman, Uh, 1535 01:18:55,960 --> 01:18:58,000 Speaker 1: mainly because I don't think this becomes a shootout. I 1536 01:18:58,040 --> 01:18:59,720 Speaker 1: think the Pats get up and then they hold it 1537 01:18:59,760 --> 01:19:03,200 Speaker 1: down own Um. He's average ade eight targets over and 1538 01:19:03,360 --> 01:19:06,280 Speaker 1: over five catches per games. Since return returning, scored in 1539 01:19:06,360 --> 01:19:10,920 Speaker 1: two straight um Hogan, I am benching now. His only 1540 01:19:11,000 --> 01:19:13,439 Speaker 1: two games came in his two good games came in 1541 01:19:13,880 --> 01:19:16,519 Speaker 1: complete shootouts, and I don't think this is a shootout. 1542 01:19:17,560 --> 01:19:21,240 Speaker 1: Gronk B grade on the night side, he's gronk. On 1543 01:19:21,280 --> 01:19:24,360 Speaker 1: the bad side, he's been limited. Uh, he missed last 1544 01:19:24,439 --> 01:19:29,280 Speaker 1: week randomly. He tends to be very injury concerned. It's 1545 01:19:29,360 --> 01:19:31,639 Speaker 1: Monday night and the Bills have been very tough against 1546 01:19:31,680 --> 01:19:34,680 Speaker 1: height ends. I if you can, I would almost put 1547 01:19:34,760 --> 01:19:38,280 Speaker 1: him in your flex and possibly consider guys like him 1548 01:19:38,439 --> 01:19:41,240 Speaker 1: and Michelle. Get him in your flex so you can 1549 01:19:41,280 --> 01:19:44,080 Speaker 1: possibly pivot to Ivory, who might get the start over there. 1550 01:19:44,120 --> 01:19:47,800 Speaker 1: If McCoy doesn't go, James White A grade just if 1551 01:19:47,840 --> 01:19:51,160 Speaker 1: Michelle doesn't go, especially just a definite eight grade. He 1552 01:19:51,240 --> 01:19:53,960 Speaker 1: has seven touchdowns this season and his averaging over ten 1553 01:19:54,080 --> 01:19:57,599 Speaker 1: targets per game in the last four, which is unreal bottom. 1554 01:19:57,840 --> 01:20:01,200 Speaker 1: Buffalo sits bottom ten of NAY points allowed to running 1555 01:20:01,240 --> 01:20:03,800 Speaker 1: backs and has given up an average of a three 1556 01:20:03,880 --> 01:20:07,200 Speaker 1: rushing yards to opponent to opposing backfields over the last 1557 01:20:07,280 --> 01:20:10,559 Speaker 1: four games. So a grade there. If Michelle does play, 1558 01:20:10,640 --> 01:20:12,400 Speaker 1: I think I would give him an A grade. I 1559 01:20:12,520 --> 01:20:15,000 Speaker 1: think I would. Yeah, we don't even know how much 1560 01:20:15,080 --> 01:20:17,360 Speaker 1: runn he'd get on that knee if I need very 1561 01:20:18,160 --> 01:20:21,519 Speaker 1: Oh man, I I wouldn't start him, though, I'd only 1562 01:20:21,560 --> 01:20:24,400 Speaker 1: put him if you can pivot. That's the only way, 1563 01:20:24,520 --> 01:20:26,519 Speaker 1: the only start him as you can pivot to somebody 1564 01:20:26,560 --> 01:20:28,120 Speaker 1: else on the Monday night, or if he doesn't go 1565 01:20:28,280 --> 01:20:30,080 Speaker 1: like Chris. I but but James Wedge is the one 1566 01:20:30,120 --> 01:20:32,640 Speaker 1: I'm I'm not even remotely concerned of because of his 1567 01:20:32,960 --> 01:20:37,200 Speaker 1: passing game work. On the Buffalo side, I'm sitting everyone 1568 01:20:37,560 --> 01:20:39,920 Speaker 1: I've reased the only one that possibly could get a 1569 01:20:40,000 --> 01:20:42,000 Speaker 1: C grade for me if we know McCoy's out, which 1570 01:20:42,080 --> 01:20:45,200 Speaker 1: we don't at this moment. But otherwise I'm mentioned everyone 1571 01:20:45,240 --> 01:20:46,720 Speaker 1: all right, and we don't need to say anything more 1572 01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:50,000 Speaker 1: about Buffalo bills than that it is time for lightning round. 1573 01:20:50,520 --> 01:20:54,679 Speaker 1: That means one question among two players. One question among 1574 01:20:54,760 --> 01:20:57,679 Speaker 1: two players. You will be able to listen to your answer, 1575 01:20:57,800 --> 01:21:00,400 Speaker 1: probably on your radio, so zoom. We go through the quickly. 1576 01:21:00,479 --> 01:21:01,880 Speaker 1: A lot of times have already moved on to the 1577 01:21:01,960 --> 01:21:04,160 Speaker 1: next the next person in line by the time you're 1578 01:21:04,160 --> 01:21:08,880 Speaker 1: listening for an answer. Ben, you are first. All right, guys, 1579 01:21:08,960 --> 01:21:11,599 Speaker 1: he'll be quick. This is gonna be rough. The standard 1580 01:21:12,120 --> 01:21:21,080 Speaker 1: scoring non PPR, I guess Barner or hide. I guess 1581 01:21:21,520 --> 01:21:25,040 Speaker 1: Kenyan Barner or I would go hide. Yeah, you gotta 1582 01:21:25,120 --> 01:21:27,439 Speaker 1: go hide because if Michelle does play, Barner might not 1583 01:21:27,520 --> 01:21:32,479 Speaker 1: even see the I think from guaranteed touches. Dan, you're next. 1584 01:21:33,640 --> 01:21:37,040 Speaker 1: I have both PPR and non PPR. Do I consider 1585 01:21:37,120 --> 01:21:43,280 Speaker 1: starting Mostart over Um McCaffrey. Yes, if they rule Breed out, 1586 01:21:43,479 --> 01:21:46,800 Speaker 1: for sure, definitely would. And even so, if you're in 1587 01:21:46,840 --> 01:21:49,360 Speaker 1: two different leagues, I might split it in half and 1588 01:21:49,520 --> 01:21:51,880 Speaker 1: cover your bases. But frankly, most it's got way more 1589 01:21:51,960 --> 01:21:54,040 Speaker 1: upside problems. You may not hear about breed until later 1590 01:21:54,040 --> 01:21:55,920 Speaker 1: because that's late. It's a late game. That's a good point. 1591 01:21:56,280 --> 01:21:59,479 Speaker 1: You got a bank on McCaffrey. Yeah, I don't know. 1592 01:21:59,520 --> 01:22:01,880 Speaker 1: I see I've play Moster. Yeah, but I I I'm 1593 01:22:01,920 --> 01:22:07,679 Speaker 1: a high risk guy. Ryan Hello, Yes, JAYL Rohard or Booker, 1594 01:22:09,320 --> 01:22:13,120 Speaker 1: uh Richard Safer. He's got He's seven catches and there's 1595 01:22:13,160 --> 01:22:16,639 Speaker 1: seven at least not a big He's got a great matchup. 1596 01:22:16,720 --> 01:22:19,120 Speaker 1: But man, it's DeVante Booker. I just can't do it. 1597 01:22:20,400 --> 01:22:23,040 Speaker 1: Is some great talent If it's PPRS, Shard is it 1598 01:22:23,120 --> 01:22:26,200 Speaker 1: PPR standard. Oh, we don't know because he's gone. Ron Ryan. Now, 1599 01:22:26,280 --> 01:22:31,800 Speaker 1: Hello Ryan, he going it? Say it again? Goliday or 1600 01:22:31,880 --> 01:22:36,880 Speaker 1: lock it Holiday? Lock it? Okay, I mean lock it 1601 01:22:36,960 --> 01:22:39,719 Speaker 1: because they're less matals defeat on that offense than Orange Detroit. 1602 01:22:40,560 --> 01:22:47,160 Speaker 1: John your next as we need Troubinsky or a rod Um. 1603 01:22:48,880 --> 01:22:52,240 Speaker 1: It's Rogers Love Rogers my number two quarterback this week 1604 01:22:52,280 --> 01:22:57,519 Speaker 1: and a fantastic matchup. Hello Diana, Hi, guys, this whole question. 1605 01:22:58,360 --> 01:23:01,240 Speaker 1: I'm going against Bryan's garbage team and I have to 1606 01:23:01,320 --> 01:23:06,880 Speaker 1: choose between c Ja Bathard or Alex Smith. Brian, you 1607 01:23:06,920 --> 01:23:10,120 Speaker 1: should answer it. Then you can't. Brian can't answer it. 1608 01:23:10,880 --> 01:23:13,280 Speaker 1: Scott Fish Bowl where I failed to start Lamar Miller 1609 01:23:13,360 --> 01:23:17,800 Speaker 1: by the Lake because I went to a hockey game. Yeah, yeah, 1610 01:23:17,840 --> 01:23:21,240 Speaker 1: it was. What should Diana do? I think I had 1611 01:23:21,280 --> 01:23:24,280 Speaker 1: Bethard rated higher this week, but Alex Smith has a 1612 01:23:24,400 --> 01:23:30,720 Speaker 1: far better matchup. Yeah, that's that's pretty ugly. I'd go 1613 01:23:30,840 --> 01:23:33,080 Speaker 1: beth just hoping for some rushing yards. Is that far 1614 01:23:33,280 --> 01:23:38,080 Speaker 1: that makes sense to get points per first time? Brian? Please? Phil? Hello? 1615 01:23:38,960 --> 01:23:42,719 Speaker 1: Hey there, Um, would you chance wrong or I'm blinking? 1616 01:23:42,760 --> 01:23:46,479 Speaker 1: But the tight end from the Bear story tray Burton easily. Yep, 1617 01:23:46,600 --> 01:23:51,519 Speaker 1: ty Burton. Burton's correct, Yeah, the wrong thing, it's all. 1618 01:23:51,600 --> 01:23:54,760 Speaker 1: It's all. The difficulty of course here is that he's 1619 01:23:54,840 --> 01:23:56,800 Speaker 1: Monday night, so we don't know his status and you've 1620 01:23:56,800 --> 01:23:59,840 Speaker 1: got to make a call sooner than that. But it's Buffalo, right, 1621 01:24:00,920 --> 01:24:03,759 Speaker 1: hold on, I lock and Phil, what's yeah? I'm actually 1622 01:24:03,800 --> 01:24:05,479 Speaker 1: hanging out, but sorry if I hung up on you, 1623 01:24:05,520 --> 01:24:10,040 Speaker 1: I apologize. Bron statline historically against Buffalo is absolutely ridiculous. 1624 01:24:10,160 --> 01:24:14,080 Speaker 1: It's lunacy looking at that game. Long those games and Buffalo, baby, 1625 01:24:14,240 --> 01:24:18,240 Speaker 1: let's try Emily Hello, Hi, Yeah, finitely from Jacksonville. Again, 1626 01:24:22,080 --> 01:24:24,400 Speaker 1: it was Golliday or Sterling Shepherd. Brian, I think you're 1627 01:24:24,479 --> 01:24:26,920 Speaker 1: up on this one. Yeah, we're waiting on news of 1628 01:24:27,000 --> 01:24:30,600 Speaker 1: the Washington slot corner. Right he's out. What was his 1629 01:24:30,680 --> 01:24:33,760 Speaker 1: Nameabi and Moreau. If he is out, it's Shepherd with 1630 01:24:33,800 --> 01:24:39,599 Speaker 1: a bullet, but I would probably en Gala day otherwise, Brian. Hello, Yeah, 1631 01:24:39,720 --> 01:24:46,120 Speaker 1: full point Golden Taper Johnson, Golden Tate with a really 1632 01:24:46,240 --> 01:24:49,200 Speaker 1: juicy matchup this week, like like him a lot at 1633 01:24:49,240 --> 01:24:51,800 Speaker 1: the revenge game hadn't sound as much as I was hoping. 1634 01:24:51,960 --> 01:24:57,920 Speaker 1: But let's see here. I think I can go to Joe. Hello, Joe, Hi, Hi, Dan, 1635 01:24:59,120 --> 01:25:03,280 Speaker 1: Rudolph or Joko. Oh if this is coming to me, 1636 01:25:03,320 --> 01:25:05,160 Speaker 1: I have been joking with my tight end one. All right, 1637 01:25:05,360 --> 01:25:10,160 Speaker 1: there you go, Bill. Your next PPR Travis Kelsey or 1638 01:25:10,280 --> 01:25:14,200 Speaker 1: Robert Wood. It's Kelsey or Robert Kelsey. Three straight over 1639 01:25:14,240 --> 01:25:16,400 Speaker 1: a hundred yards against Denver and that's going to continue. 1640 01:25:16,520 --> 01:25:22,960 Speaker 1: He is fantastic. Yeah, that's nice, Rod. Hello, the rest 1641 01:25:23,040 --> 01:25:26,439 Speaker 1: of the year. Question half point PPR Ingram or Michelle. 1642 01:25:29,080 --> 01:25:31,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take the healthy back. I'm gonna take the 1643 01:25:31,120 --> 01:25:33,439 Speaker 1: guy who doesn't have a reoccurring knee problem. So I 1644 01:25:33,479 --> 01:25:35,840 Speaker 1: would I would take Ingram over Michelle rest of the way, 1645 01:25:36,280 --> 01:25:38,800 Speaker 1: which I think is a reasonable way to go. Andy, Hello, 1646 01:25:39,960 --> 01:25:44,160 Speaker 1: you guys, half point PPR shub or do I go 1647 01:25:44,479 --> 01:25:52,960 Speaker 1: with like faced out? Sorry? Al right, Andy, I don't, 1648 01:25:53,920 --> 01:25:56,639 Speaker 1: so we'll go with somebody else. Go with you? You're next, 1649 01:25:59,160 --> 01:26:04,120 Speaker 1: Tim Well, yes, half point GPR. Hold onto Ronald Jones 1650 01:26:04,400 --> 01:26:07,679 Speaker 1: or Pip All right, Oh my gosh, this is such 1651 01:26:07,680 --> 01:26:10,599 Speaker 1: a good week for potentially Ronald Jones. But I still 1652 01:26:10,640 --> 01:26:12,960 Speaker 1: can't even start him because I'm not sure. I'd probably 1653 01:26:13,120 --> 01:26:19,800 Speaker 1: I'd probably go with Charches prespective Geo. Okay, Kevin your next, Kevin? 1654 01:26:21,479 --> 01:26:23,760 Speaker 1: All right? So see the deal is if you try 1655 01:26:23,800 --> 01:26:25,960 Speaker 1: to listen to it on the radio, it doesn't work. 1656 01:26:26,200 --> 01:26:29,040 Speaker 1: So yeah, you gotta just you can't listen to the 1657 01:26:29,120 --> 01:26:34,040 Speaker 1: radio while you're on hold. Natalie, Hello, Hello, Standard Lead, 1658 01:26:34,320 --> 01:26:39,560 Speaker 1: Tyler Lockett or Sterling Shepherd.
