<v Speaker 1>host today or Scott Fish and Matt Harrison. Good morning, guys.

0:01:16.480 --> 0:01:19.160
<v Speaker 1>Is that a tribute to the long lost Christian Peterson

0:01:19.240 --> 0:01:22.040
<v Speaker 1>right there? Sure? Yeah? We like that, Um, we don't

0:01:22.040 --> 0:01:25.040
<v Speaker 1>like Christians just like Yeah, he apparently don't hasn't been

0:01:25.080 --> 0:01:27.000
<v Speaker 1>on the show in two years now because he won't

0:01:27.000 --> 0:01:31.160
<v Speaker 1>come on the show too good for us. That's you know,

0:01:31.200 --> 0:01:32.920
<v Speaker 1>if you're gonna say you're too good for us, then yes,

0:01:33.040 --> 0:01:35.000
<v Speaker 1>that was the case. Church. You'll appreciate this, and it

0:01:35.080 --> 0:01:38.440
<v Speaker 1>was something that connects with our fantasy football almost daily podcast.

0:01:38.760 --> 0:01:41.240
<v Speaker 1>We did an appliance draft at lunch the other day.

0:01:41.319 --> 0:01:42.959
<v Speaker 1>Was Christian. I could just do it out of my

0:01:43.040 --> 0:01:45.240
<v Speaker 1>kitchen because all I've done is buying new appliances for

0:01:45.360 --> 0:01:48.160
<v Speaker 1>the last year. I can tell you which ones you

0:01:48.200 --> 0:01:51.440
<v Speaker 1>do not want to fall into. I can I can

0:01:51.520 --> 0:01:54.320
<v Speaker 1>rank them, um, and the one you really don't want

0:01:54.320 --> 0:01:56.480
<v Speaker 1>to fall into, other than the burning oven, I think

0:01:56.680 --> 0:02:00.960
<v Speaker 1>would probably be the dishwasher. Take it from me, um

0:02:01.000 --> 0:02:02.960
<v Speaker 1>Plenty to get to over the course of the show

0:02:03.000 --> 0:02:04.840
<v Speaker 1>is our usual stuff. But I've got two things that

0:02:04.880 --> 0:02:07.600
<v Speaker 1>I want to talk about before we got dive into

0:02:07.600 --> 0:02:09.520
<v Speaker 1>our matchups and are take a chance on me and

0:02:09.520 --> 0:02:12.959
<v Speaker 1>everything else? Number One, the news in Baltimore that Joe

0:02:12.960 --> 0:02:15.720
<v Speaker 1>Flacco may miss an extended period of time there. I'm

0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:19.480
<v Speaker 1>by this week coming out of the by the presumption

0:02:19.760 --> 0:02:22.520
<v Speaker 1>is that Lamar Jackson will be the starter, but we

0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:25.040
<v Speaker 1>don't know for sure. There are some reports saying, you

0:02:25.040 --> 0:02:27.840
<v Speaker 1>know that r G three is technically the number two

0:02:27.960 --> 0:02:30.760
<v Speaker 1>quarterback I guess on the depth chart, but they because

0:02:31.040 --> 0:02:34.960
<v Speaker 1>they like the running that Lamar Jackson can do and

0:02:34.960 --> 0:02:38.040
<v Speaker 1>all the hybrid stuff they've been utilizing him and for

0:02:38.160 --> 0:02:40.079
<v Speaker 1>gadget place. But that doesn't mean that if they need

0:02:40.080 --> 0:02:42.680
<v Speaker 1>an every damn quarterback they'd go to Jackson. What are

0:02:42.720 --> 0:02:47.359
<v Speaker 1>your thoughts on acquiring either of the Ravens quarterbacks? So

0:02:47.480 --> 0:02:49.960
<v Speaker 1>what this says to me is that the Ravens aren't

0:02:50.040 --> 0:02:53.640
<v Speaker 1>quite ready to move on from Joe Flacco yet. The

0:02:53.680 --> 0:02:56.880
<v Speaker 1>only reason you do not start the Lamar Jackson era

0:02:57.520 --> 0:03:00.160
<v Speaker 1>and and go with Bobby three sticks Robert Griffin. The

0:03:00.200 --> 0:03:03.919
<v Speaker 1>third is you're not ready to move on from Joe

0:03:03.960 --> 0:03:07.559
<v Speaker 1>Flacco because you can easily go back from Griffin to Flacco.

0:03:07.639 --> 0:03:09.600
<v Speaker 1>But if Lamar Jackson comes in and has a couple

0:03:09.639 --> 0:03:12.400
<v Speaker 1>of good games, there's no turning back. So I think

0:03:12.480 --> 0:03:17.160
<v Speaker 1>that they still have some legitimate loyalty to Joe Flack,

0:03:17.280 --> 0:03:21.000
<v Speaker 1>which he very If Lamar Jackson does get in there Cincinnati, Oakland,

0:03:21.120 --> 0:03:24.079
<v Speaker 1>Atlanta to start out, That's why I'm picking up Lamar Jackson.

0:03:24.120 --> 0:03:27.240
<v Speaker 1>You guys are putting us in fantasy terms. I mean,

0:03:27.280 --> 0:03:29.440
<v Speaker 1>I say, you know, my immediate response on Twitter was

0:03:29.480 --> 0:03:31.799
<v Speaker 1>go get Lamar jack He was picked up everywhere within

0:03:31.880 --> 0:03:36.200
<v Speaker 1>five minutes of Yeah, you have to, because uh, you're

0:03:36.200 --> 0:03:41.440
<v Speaker 1>gonna get from Lamar Jackson probably RB two running numbers

0:03:41.480 --> 0:03:44.160
<v Speaker 1>like fifty yards rushing and a coin flips chance at

0:03:44.160 --> 0:03:46.720
<v Speaker 1>at a at a touchdown, which is you know what

0:03:46.720 --> 0:03:50.760
<v Speaker 1>you're getting when you're starting Keevin Coleman, right, and then

0:03:50.800 --> 0:03:53.240
<v Speaker 1>all the passings just gravy. Basically, if he can throw

0:03:53.320 --> 0:03:56.040
<v Speaker 1>for hundred ninety yards and a touchdown, that's just all

0:03:56.080 --> 0:03:59.400
<v Speaker 1>bonus points. That's a that can be in sort of

0:03:59.480 --> 0:04:02.880
<v Speaker 1>like Robert Griffin the third when he was before yeah, right,

0:04:03.080 --> 0:04:06.920
<v Speaker 1>when he could actually run. So I'm I'm I'm actually

0:04:06.960 --> 0:04:10.520
<v Speaker 1>pretty excited about Jackson. Um already had him, had had

0:04:10.560 --> 0:04:12.040
<v Speaker 1>him statted from the beginning of the year in a

0:04:12.080 --> 0:04:15.040
<v Speaker 1>couple of leagues. But there's a I highly recommend that

0:04:15.080 --> 0:04:16.919
<v Speaker 1>people go out and get Lamar Jackson and see how

0:04:16.960 --> 0:04:20.000
<v Speaker 1>this thing plays out. Robert Griffin and even if Robert

0:04:20.040 --> 0:04:23.920
<v Speaker 1>Griffin were the game the first starter with Flacco out,

0:04:24.080 --> 0:04:28.080
<v Speaker 1>does not mean Griffin will be the game too starter

0:04:28.360 --> 0:04:32.480
<v Speaker 1>with with Flacco out. So let's get Lamar Jackson. Keep

0:04:32.480 --> 0:04:34.200
<v Speaker 1>our fingers crossed that they go to the first round

0:04:34.279 --> 0:04:39.359
<v Speaker 1>rookie next hypothetically, and this is the case for a

0:04:39.360 --> 0:04:43.480
<v Speaker 1>lot of our listeners. You're down by fifty points after

0:04:43.520 --> 0:04:48.000
<v Speaker 1>the crazy explosion of points that came on Thursday night. Guys,

0:04:48.040 --> 0:04:50.480
<v Speaker 1>give some advice to those people that are already down

0:04:50.680 --> 0:04:54.160
<v Speaker 1>by a wide margin. What do you do? Just hang

0:04:54.200 --> 0:04:56.960
<v Speaker 1>it up, just talking out. Don't even try quit fantasy

0:04:56.960 --> 0:05:00.960
<v Speaker 1>football altogether. I mean, yeah, it's just over. It's high risk,

0:05:01.000 --> 0:05:04.360
<v Speaker 1>high reward guys. You you look at your wide receiver

0:05:04.480 --> 0:05:07.920
<v Speaker 1>to wide receiver three and your flex plays, and you go,

0:05:08.480 --> 0:05:12.560
<v Speaker 1>which guy has the crazy high upside but the crazy

0:05:12.640 --> 0:05:15.680
<v Speaker 1>low floor, and and you try to just hit on

0:05:15.720 --> 0:05:17.640
<v Speaker 1>a couple of those. It's it's got to be playing

0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:19.800
<v Speaker 1>the same with the ones that were close. Like if

0:05:19.800 --> 0:05:21.840
<v Speaker 1>you have two quarterbacks and one is fits and one

0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:25.120
<v Speaker 1>is like Dalton has the higher upside. And I think

0:05:25.160 --> 0:05:27.880
<v Speaker 1>throughout the show today, when we're going through the matchups,

0:05:27.920 --> 0:05:30.960
<v Speaker 1>maybe we can use like some sort of sound or

0:05:31.040 --> 0:05:34.160
<v Speaker 1>something like that to to signify some of these players

0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:37.560
<v Speaker 1>that doesn't seem high upside while you're down by fifty.

0:05:37.880 --> 0:05:40.480
<v Speaker 1>If you're down by fifty right now, that's that's how

0:05:40.480 --> 0:05:43.200
<v Speaker 1>you're feeling Okay, the sad trombone play, We're gonna call it.

0:05:43.240 --> 0:05:46.520
<v Speaker 1>We can do this. The vulture doesn't really make sense.

0:05:46.880 --> 0:05:49.600
<v Speaker 1>We need that better, No, we really do. It'll come

0:05:49.680 --> 0:05:52.400
<v Speaker 1>up with something. There's gonna be some amazing comebacks by

0:05:52.480 --> 0:05:55.440
<v Speaker 1>teams though stories I think there will be. Yeah. The

0:05:55.440 --> 0:05:57.960
<v Speaker 1>thing you're missing on is get try to hook up

0:05:58.000 --> 0:06:02.280
<v Speaker 1>together quarterback wide receiver so that if your wide receiver

0:06:02.360 --> 0:06:05.080
<v Speaker 1>goes off, he takes the quarterback with him, or vice versa.

0:06:05.160 --> 0:06:07.560
<v Speaker 1>The quarterback goes off, he probably you know you've got

0:06:07.600 --> 0:06:10.400
<v Speaker 1>something out of your out of your your receiver as well. Well,

0:06:10.440 --> 0:06:13.600
<v Speaker 1>how about this too, If your quarterback is playing your

0:06:13.600 --> 0:06:16.520
<v Speaker 1>opponent's wide receiver or vice versa, do you try to

0:06:16.560 --> 0:06:19.480
<v Speaker 1>avoid those matchups? Well, yeah, I mean I think. Well

0:06:19.560 --> 0:06:21.799
<v Speaker 1>let's so let's flip it over. Let's say you're protecting

0:06:21.800 --> 0:06:24.000
<v Speaker 1>a fifty point lead, like because of a lot of

0:06:24.000 --> 0:06:26.919
<v Speaker 1>our listeners are very savvy fantasy players, of course, so

0:06:27.000 --> 0:06:29.240
<v Speaker 1>let's assume any of them are protecting a fifty point

0:06:29.320 --> 0:06:32.240
<v Speaker 1>lead right now, flip it over for them and talk

0:06:32.279 --> 0:06:34.320
<v Speaker 1>about what you do to make sure that you don't

0:06:34.400 --> 0:06:37.240
<v Speaker 1>end up on the wrong side on Sunday. Well, super

0:06:37.279 --> 0:06:40.480
<v Speaker 1>safe plays. If uh, if I'm the Drew Breese owner

0:06:40.520 --> 0:06:43.279
<v Speaker 1>and my opponent's got Michael Thomas, I'm very happy having

0:06:43.320 --> 0:06:46.080
<v Speaker 1>Drew Brees in my lineup because every Michael Thomas touchdown

0:06:47.080 --> 0:06:49.360
<v Speaker 1>down to so that that's kind of how you play.

0:06:49.480 --> 0:06:52.240
<v Speaker 1>You just you just go ultra safe and and you

0:06:52.279 --> 0:06:54.200
<v Speaker 1>go for the guys that are lower. You look at

0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:56.800
<v Speaker 1>receivers who catch a lot of passes and will give

0:06:56.880 --> 0:06:59.960
<v Speaker 1>you your PPR points and not necessarily, say a Tyler

0:07:00.040 --> 0:07:02.680
<v Speaker 1>Lockett who needs to turn three receptions into a touchdown.

0:07:03.000 --> 0:07:05.640
<v Speaker 1>If Tyler Lockett doesn't give you the touchdown, you're stuck.

0:07:05.720 --> 0:07:07.840
<v Speaker 1>You want Jarvis Landry's of the world. You do you

0:07:07.880 --> 0:07:10.640
<v Speaker 1>want Jarvis Landry. You want your safe plays right down

0:07:10.640 --> 0:07:12.840
<v Speaker 1>the middle of the fairway if you're up by fifty points.

0:07:13.120 --> 0:07:16.000
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's dive into the matchups, beginning with probably

0:07:16.040 --> 0:07:18.920
<v Speaker 1>the least interesting one of the entire day, Bills taking

0:07:18.960 --> 0:07:21.680
<v Speaker 1>on Jets. We have two new quarterbacks at home in

0:07:21.720 --> 0:07:24.520
<v Speaker 1>all probability for this game at the entire day, try

0:07:24.600 --> 0:07:27.280
<v Speaker 1>the entire year. While that could be too um, I've

0:07:27.280 --> 0:07:31.240
<v Speaker 1>got Buffalo on the bench. Okay, as a team, Yeah,

0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:33.240
<v Speaker 1>the team is on the bench. The Bills have not

0:07:33.440 --> 0:07:36.640
<v Speaker 1>thrown a touchdown pass in three weeks. They have three

0:07:36.680 --> 0:07:40.920
<v Speaker 1>passing touchdowns on the season to sixteen interceptions. That's unbelievable. Also,

0:07:41.080 --> 0:07:43.640
<v Speaker 1>the Bills running backs have not run for a touchdown

0:07:43.640 --> 0:07:47.920
<v Speaker 1>since Week two. God, that's that's unreal. That's the worst

0:07:48.000 --> 0:07:50.840
<v Speaker 1>offense maybe in the history of the league. It's it's

0:07:50.880 --> 0:07:53.080
<v Speaker 1>gonna be in that conversation if they don't turn it around.

0:07:53.400 --> 0:07:55.440
<v Speaker 1>And so let's flip it over to the Jet side.

0:07:56.240 --> 0:08:00.600
<v Speaker 1>Isaiah Crowle and Elijah McGuire are my only starters on

0:08:00.640 --> 0:08:05.400
<v Speaker 1>the Jets side, and they're barely starters like c minus starters.

0:08:05.440 --> 0:08:08.200
<v Speaker 1>The Bills have allowed twelve touchdowns to running backs in

0:08:08.280 --> 0:08:11.120
<v Speaker 1>nine games. That's the good part. The only problem is

0:08:11.120 --> 0:08:14.400
<v Speaker 1>is now we're looking at a split timeshare backfield and

0:08:14.480 --> 0:08:18.240
<v Speaker 1>only one back is top the century mark against them.

0:08:18.280 --> 0:08:21.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm not excited about either, but either are available to

0:08:21.120 --> 0:08:24.360
<v Speaker 1>be played. Uh. Josh McCown is starting for the Jets

0:08:24.880 --> 0:08:27.200
<v Speaker 1>as quarterback. He's on the bench. The Bills are only

0:08:27.200 --> 0:08:30.000
<v Speaker 1>allowing two or twenty five passing yards per game. That's

0:08:30.000 --> 0:08:33.080
<v Speaker 1>tied for the third fewest in the NFL. Robby Anderson

0:08:33.120 --> 0:08:35.080
<v Speaker 1>has an ankle injury, he may not go, and he

0:08:35.120 --> 0:08:38.440
<v Speaker 1>was an account's favorite target last year. Quincy and None

0:08:38.440 --> 0:08:40.720
<v Speaker 1>one Jermaine Curse are both on the bench as well,

0:08:40.960 --> 0:08:43.199
<v Speaker 1>and none was pretty much moved to the outside now

0:08:43.240 --> 0:08:46.600
<v Speaker 1>and Curses moved inside as the slot received around an

0:08:46.600 --> 0:08:49.040
<v Speaker 1>almost full time basis. Yeah, but now with the change

0:08:49.040 --> 0:08:51.160
<v Speaker 1>of quarterbacks, so you under Darnald it was just like,

0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:53.319
<v Speaker 1>you know, we just fed the slot over and over

0:08:53.320 --> 0:08:56.080
<v Speaker 1>and over again. But now we're at McCown, so you know,

0:08:56.160 --> 0:09:00.240
<v Speaker 1>McCown was not as slot oriented in the past. Thing

0:09:00.280 --> 0:09:02.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm worried about is ann one matches up with tred

0:09:03.000 --> 0:09:06.360
<v Speaker 1>Davis White, who's a well above average cornerback in the NFL,

0:09:07.320 --> 0:09:10.160
<v Speaker 1>so he's on the bench, and then Chris Herndon, who

0:09:10.280 --> 0:09:12.240
<v Speaker 1>scored in three of his last four, but that was

0:09:12.320 --> 0:09:16.040
<v Speaker 1>all with Donald. I don't know the relationship between McCown

0:09:16.080 --> 0:09:22.600
<v Speaker 1>and Herndon. Thank you sage like wisdom from Scott Fish

0:09:22.400 --> 0:09:24.920
<v Speaker 1>and the Bills are only allowing four receptions in forty

0:09:24.960 --> 0:09:26.839
<v Speaker 1>one yards per game to opposing tight ends, so it's

0:09:26.880 --> 0:09:30.319
<v Speaker 1>not something I want to chase after here with Herndon. Um,

0:09:30.360 --> 0:09:32.760
<v Speaker 1>I think overall the Jets are better. Honestly, the way

0:09:32.880 --> 0:09:35.040
<v Speaker 1>that Donald had played for the last month. The whole

0:09:35.040 --> 0:09:37.199
<v Speaker 1>offense is a little bit better with Josh McCown, even

0:09:37.240 --> 0:09:39.360
<v Speaker 1>on zero reps for this year. I think the over

0:09:39.440 --> 0:09:42.640
<v Speaker 1>under in this game is thirty seven, and I think

0:09:42.679 --> 0:09:47.360
<v Speaker 1>i'd take the under. Scott Seahawks taking on the Rams.

0:09:47.400 --> 0:09:51.800
<v Speaker 1>This is a surprisingly good Seahawks defense, and um, does

0:09:51.800 --> 0:09:53.719
<v Speaker 1>this present any problems for the Rams. I'm just to

0:09:53.760 --> 0:09:55.360
<v Speaker 1>hear what you have to think. I don't know. The

0:09:55.440 --> 0:09:59.920
<v Speaker 1>last game they played one kind of the shootout actually, UM, Seahawks.

0:10:00.280 --> 0:10:02.080
<v Speaker 1>Obviously you can tell by the score. She has almost

0:10:02.080 --> 0:10:03.960
<v Speaker 1>won that game. It was it was touch and go. Yeah,

0:10:04.000 --> 0:10:06.040
<v Speaker 1>they really did, and they did it on the ground

0:10:06.080 --> 0:10:09.600
<v Speaker 1>with thirty four touches to running back. Say, I wonder

0:10:09.640 --> 0:10:12.480
<v Speaker 1>if that's a little bit of the blueprint to hold

0:10:12.480 --> 0:10:16.360
<v Speaker 1>the Rams down. UM, let's start with a running game

0:10:16.400 --> 0:10:18.520
<v Speaker 1>instead here we usually start with the passing. Let's start

0:10:18.520 --> 0:10:21.640
<v Speaker 1>with the running game. Uh. Carson has been questionable a week.

0:10:22.040 --> 0:10:24.439
<v Speaker 1>It's likely he's going to play. If he doesn't, Mike

0:10:24.480 --> 0:10:28.560
<v Speaker 1>Davis is a huge must play. Mike Davis has has

0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:31.280
<v Speaker 1>been the starter twice this year, and he was RB

0:10:31.400 --> 0:10:34.679
<v Speaker 1>six and RB eleven in those two starts, so he's

0:10:34.720 --> 0:10:38.360
<v Speaker 1>a definite start if if not, Carson gets a two

0:10:38.360 --> 0:10:41.000
<v Speaker 1>to one advantage in touches. Usually, So I meet Carson

0:10:41.040 --> 0:10:44.000
<v Speaker 1>a B grade and Davis a C grade because I

0:10:44.040 --> 0:10:47.040
<v Speaker 1>although there's a scenario out there which is tricky where

0:10:47.080 --> 0:10:49.480
<v Speaker 1>Carson's active, but maybe they don't use them or they

0:10:49.520 --> 0:10:52.520
<v Speaker 1>give them much reduced role. It's very it's very difficult

0:10:52.559 --> 0:10:57.120
<v Speaker 1>to project here. You guys remember Penny, Yeah, that was funny. No, no,

0:10:57.240 --> 0:10:58.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't even know who you're talking. I think I

0:10:58.880 --> 0:11:00.959
<v Speaker 1>think he plays a couple of shole team snaps every

0:11:00.960 --> 0:11:03.920
<v Speaker 1>once in a while for a first rounder. Uh, kind

0:11:03.920 --> 0:11:07.239
<v Speaker 1>of like Corderol Patterson for US for a while. Um

0:11:07.320 --> 0:11:10.360
<v Speaker 1>Russell Wilson gave him a B grad's he's starting to

0:11:10.400 --> 0:11:13.160
<v Speaker 1>heat up. He has seventy six rushing yards over the

0:11:13.240 --> 0:11:15.640
<v Speaker 1>last three games. He only had forty two rushing yards

0:11:15.679 --> 0:11:17.920
<v Speaker 1>in the first five games toital He's starting to add

0:11:17.960 --> 0:11:21.040
<v Speaker 1>those rushing yards to his UH, to his uh, you know,

0:11:21.760 --> 0:11:25.560
<v Speaker 1>inventory of points he's getting or whatever. It has potential

0:11:25.600 --> 0:11:28.080
<v Speaker 1>for a good game script for for Wilson. I think

0:11:28.120 --> 0:11:30.800
<v Speaker 1>it's possible they fall behind, very very possible they fall

0:11:30.960 --> 0:11:34.280
<v Speaker 1>behind and have to keep catching up. So I have

0:11:34.360 --> 0:11:37.320
<v Speaker 1>a B grade on Russell Wilson here. I give most

0:11:37.360 --> 0:11:39.920
<v Speaker 1>of his receivers bs and seas as well. Baldwin looks

0:11:39.920 --> 0:11:42.520
<v Speaker 1>like he's gonna play. I barely give him a B grade.

0:11:42.559 --> 0:11:44.440
<v Speaker 1>He has seventy five plus yards in two of the

0:11:44.480 --> 0:11:48.040
<v Speaker 1>last three. He's super inconsistent, but he's still the his

0:11:48.240 --> 0:11:53.240
<v Speaker 1>Russell Wilson's number one guy. It's a unsteady, unsteady B grade.

0:11:53.679 --> 0:11:56.240
<v Speaker 1>He gets the best cornerback the Rams half too, though, Nickel,

0:11:56.320 --> 0:11:59.320
<v Speaker 1>Robie Coleman and not. So I like his one on

0:11:59.320 --> 0:12:01.120
<v Speaker 1>one matchup the East out of the group. You're you

0:12:01.160 --> 0:12:05.640
<v Speaker 1>like Baldwin more than Baldwin jumps around. He's like he's

0:12:05.720 --> 0:12:08.480
<v Speaker 1>normally a slock guy. But it's only like so he

0:12:08.559 --> 0:12:12.520
<v Speaker 1>does jump around. Uh lock it B grade. I almost

0:12:12.520 --> 0:12:17.240
<v Speaker 1>considered an age just because Marcus Peters is game destroyed constantly. Um,

0:12:17.320 --> 0:12:20.079
<v Speaker 1>Baldwin being in is is the scary thing because with

0:12:20.120 --> 0:12:23.880
<v Speaker 1>Baldwin out, Uh, he topped fifty yards in every game

0:12:23.920 --> 0:12:25.800
<v Speaker 1>and scored in two of them. With Baldwin in, he

0:12:25.840 --> 0:12:29.000
<v Speaker 1>hasn't topped three catches yet this season. That once, Yeah,

0:12:29.000 --> 0:12:31.160
<v Speaker 1>it's he's he's You've got to get the touchdown out

0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:33.080
<v Speaker 1>to lock it, but it could happen in this game,

0:12:33.160 --> 0:12:35.719
<v Speaker 1>and he's had six touchdowns in eight games, so it

0:12:35.760 --> 0:12:37.640
<v Speaker 1>could definitely happen. I have a B grade, unlock it,

0:12:37.720 --> 0:12:41.000
<v Speaker 1>a C grade on more barely it becomes very safe

0:12:41.000 --> 0:12:43.440
<v Speaker 1>if Baldwin comes out. But he has five red zone

0:12:43.440 --> 0:12:46.120
<v Speaker 1>targets in the last three weeks, scoring scoring in three

0:12:46.160 --> 0:12:48.800
<v Speaker 1>of them, and Russell Wilson trusted him with the very

0:12:48.880 --> 0:12:51.000
<v Speaker 1>last play the game last week, which tells tells me

0:12:51.040 --> 0:12:53.000
<v Speaker 1>a lot about his trust and David Moore around the

0:12:53.040 --> 0:12:57.560
<v Speaker 1>end zone. So C grade there, goff. Basically, I gave

0:12:57.640 --> 0:13:00.199
<v Speaker 1>all a's to the Rams except for Cooks. I gave

0:13:00.240 --> 0:13:02.480
<v Speaker 1>a B and I'll explain why a second, but Golf

0:13:03.240 --> 0:13:06.440
<v Speaker 1>A grade. My only concern here is the Seahawks have

0:13:06.520 --> 0:13:08.959
<v Speaker 1>not allowed its top twelve fantasy quarterback yet this season.

0:13:09.080 --> 0:13:10.920
<v Speaker 1>It's shocking to me. Now they played a lot of

0:13:11.040 --> 0:13:13.800
<v Speaker 1>garbage quarterbacks. That's exactly where I was gonna go, So

0:13:13.840 --> 0:13:15.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna go over it. But yes, they played

0:13:15.559 --> 0:13:19.520
<v Speaker 1>a lot of garbage, A lot of garbage quarterback. Um

0:13:19.760 --> 0:13:22.640
<v Speaker 1>uh yeah, I lost my train of thought there, but

0:13:22.720 --> 0:13:27.200
<v Speaker 1>I I really I stopped on your Yeah, exactly exactly.

0:13:27.240 --> 0:13:30.320
<v Speaker 1>It's fine. Golf had five has five hundred yard games

0:13:30.320 --> 0:13:32.760
<v Speaker 1>and five multi touchdown games, and see has a lot

0:13:32.760 --> 0:13:35.120
<v Speaker 1>of back to back touch multi touchdown games to quarterbacks.

0:13:35.120 --> 0:13:36.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm still gonna give him an a here, can I

0:13:36.840 --> 0:13:38.760
<v Speaker 1>can I mention my my golf stat that I may

0:13:38.800 --> 0:13:40.600
<v Speaker 1>have mentioned last week, But I just think it's so

0:13:40.720 --> 0:13:44.440
<v Speaker 1>salient here, and it's playing itself about about Girly. When

0:13:44.440 --> 0:13:49.960
<v Speaker 1>Girly only only scores one or zero rushing touchdowns, Jared

0:13:50.040 --> 0:13:55.160
<v Speaker 1>Goff absolutely goes off. His average game when Gurley only

0:13:55.200 --> 0:13:58.560
<v Speaker 1>has zero or one touchdowns is three fifty yards and

0:13:58.679 --> 0:14:01.760
<v Speaker 1>three almost three and a half touchdowns per game. So

0:14:02.160 --> 0:14:04.760
<v Speaker 1>if Gurly doesn't eat all the touchdowns, Golf gets them,

0:14:04.840 --> 0:14:06.760
<v Speaker 1>so they're always going to score the points. So to me,

0:14:06.840 --> 0:14:10.040
<v Speaker 1>it's always all about how good is Gurly going to be?

0:14:10.600 --> 0:14:15.240
<v Speaker 1>Is the first question. Yeah, so, yeah, exactly, But I

0:14:15.280 --> 0:14:18.480
<v Speaker 1>think Golf is startable either way. And he's a low

0:14:18.559 --> 0:14:20.960
<v Speaker 1>a even in the for me in the in those

0:14:21.000 --> 0:14:24.480
<v Speaker 1>other games, but he's made grade here. Wood's given a

0:14:24.520 --> 0:14:27.880
<v Speaker 1>grade because he's the super consistent target leader. Five catches

0:14:27.960 --> 0:14:33.080
<v Speaker 1>and seventy yards or more than those in eight straight games. Uh,

0:14:33.200 --> 0:14:35.880
<v Speaker 1>Cooper Cup. I love Cup. I think this is a

0:14:35.920 --> 0:14:38.440
<v Speaker 1>great spot for him. He gets justin Coleman, who plays

0:14:38.560 --> 0:14:42.000
<v Speaker 1>off his slot receiver by six point eight yards. Why

0:14:42.080 --> 0:14:45.800
<v Speaker 1>that's relevant is that when Russell Wilson targets Cooper Cup

0:14:45.880 --> 0:14:47.880
<v Speaker 1>and there's more than five yards cushion, he has a

0:14:47.920 --> 0:14:52.560
<v Speaker 1>near perfect passer rating. Uh and uh, it's just a

0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:55.920
<v Speaker 1>smash spots here. Eight team catches, eight yards and three touchdowns.

0:14:55.960 --> 0:14:58.400
<v Speaker 1>He just if they do that, if they did that

0:14:58.440 --> 0:15:01.600
<v Speaker 1>to Cup, He's gonna hit Cup all day long. Cooks.

0:15:01.640 --> 0:15:04.720
<v Speaker 1>I give the B grade here too. Uh. Cup and

0:15:04.760 --> 0:15:07.960
<v Speaker 1>Woods have scored fourteen and a a half Fantasy points more

0:15:08.040 --> 0:15:10.560
<v Speaker 1>than fourteen and a half Fantasy points all but one

0:15:10.720 --> 0:15:14.120
<v Speaker 1>time combined. Cooks has done it four of eight wakes.

0:15:14.120 --> 0:15:15.760
<v Speaker 1>He does it every other week, and this is an

0:15:15.760 --> 0:15:18.800
<v Speaker 1>off week for him, so that's that's kind of random.

0:15:18.840 --> 0:15:20.960
<v Speaker 1>But he can get the two for fifty two. He

0:15:21.000 --> 0:15:23.520
<v Speaker 1>could explode. He's still gonna be He's still startable. But

0:15:24.440 --> 0:15:26.840
<v Speaker 1>he's the one that I'm most concerned about. Interesting. Robert

0:15:26.840 --> 0:15:28.560
<v Speaker 1>Woods is another one of these safe right down the

0:15:28.560 --> 0:15:31.520
<v Speaker 1>middle wide receivers. Right, you want your seventy yards and

0:15:31.560 --> 0:15:35.120
<v Speaker 1>your six receptions and Woods chips in another ten. Here's

0:15:35.120 --> 0:15:37.120
<v Speaker 1>your guy to help protect your fifty point lead from

0:15:38.600 --> 0:15:42.920
<v Speaker 1>Brandon Cook exactly. He's the guy you need for the

0:15:43.080 --> 0:15:47.520
<v Speaker 1>McCaffrey deficit correct correct or the Bendom deficit or the

0:15:47.560 --> 0:15:50.680
<v Speaker 1>Antonio Brown deficit. Yes, anyway, but by the way, a

0:15:50.720 --> 0:15:52.880
<v Speaker 1>Cup is scored in four straight, five of six where

0:15:52.880 --> 0:15:54.960
<v Speaker 1>he played the full game. How about that? Yeah, he

0:15:55.080 --> 0:15:57.560
<v Speaker 1>quietly Cup his like up. He was a top five

0:15:57.600 --> 0:15:59.920
<v Speaker 1>red zone guy last year and this year in games play,

0:16:00.280 --> 0:16:07.640
<v Speaker 1>So going forward, Cooper Cup top ten receiver because nobody's

0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:09.200
<v Speaker 1>thinking that. But I bet if we look at his

0:16:09.280 --> 0:16:11.720
<v Speaker 1>full game averages, I bet he's a top ten receiver

0:16:11.760 --> 0:16:14.520
<v Speaker 1>in fantasy. Yeah. I think it's pretty close. I bet

0:16:14.520 --> 0:16:16.640
<v Speaker 1>it's close right there. I bet quietly Cooper Cup is

0:16:16.760 --> 0:16:19.640
<v Speaker 1>right around a top ten wide receiverate twelve team league.

0:16:19.640 --> 0:16:21.920
<v Speaker 1>He's probably a wide receiver one. When we come back,

0:16:22.000 --> 0:16:24.240
<v Speaker 1>Lions take on the Bears. Will tell you if the

0:16:24.320 --> 0:16:27.080
<v Speaker 1>Lions offense is going to get back on track after

0:16:27.200 --> 0:16:36.600
<v Speaker 1>last week's to backle when we return, this is take

0:16:36.640 --> 0:16:42.080
<v Speaker 1>a chance on me? Is how about that? All right?

0:16:42.400 --> 0:16:51.760
<v Speaker 1>This is very wow. This is how you a woman's woman.

0:16:54.320 --> 0:16:59.880
<v Speaker 1>Maybe this would be in the background of some Come

0:17:00.120 --> 0:17:05.639
<v Speaker 1>of age teenage eighties film, right during some some scene

0:17:06.240 --> 0:17:09.320
<v Speaker 1>in which Mike Lanthony Hall is half naked, come on

0:17:09.600 --> 0:17:19.359
<v Speaker 1>tripping over his underwear. Somedays take a chance on me, right, Well,

0:17:20.920 --> 0:17:23.240
<v Speaker 1>take a chance on me. Nine players not normally in

0:17:23.240 --> 0:17:26.560
<v Speaker 1>your starting lineup. All three of my guys are waiver

0:17:26.680 --> 0:17:29.040
<v Speaker 1>wire players, and I think most of these are our

0:17:29.119 --> 0:17:31.640
<v Speaker 1>guys that are available on the waiver wire. They've all

0:17:31.680 --> 0:17:33.879
<v Speaker 1>got good upside. You're down by a lot. Think about

0:17:33.920 --> 0:17:39.040
<v Speaker 1>these guys beginning eat the quarterback position, Scott uh So,

0:17:40.080 --> 0:17:44.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm going with Marcus Mariota. Mariota has just one game

0:17:44.040 --> 0:17:46.280
<v Speaker 1>over two yards on the season and failed to even

0:17:46.280 --> 0:17:48.399
<v Speaker 1>get a touch on four of seven. That's what worries

0:17:49.119 --> 0:17:51.440
<v Speaker 1>That's what worries me, Okay, but he has a similar

0:17:51.440 --> 0:17:53.960
<v Speaker 1>skill set to Trabinsky, who had who had three and

0:17:54.160 --> 0:17:56.880
<v Speaker 1>thirty two and two and eight one in one rushing

0:17:57.000 --> 0:17:58.720
<v Speaker 1>against them. I think there's a lot of garbage time

0:17:58.760 --> 0:18:01.200
<v Speaker 1>here and the pets on the rutor allowing just over

0:18:01.240 --> 0:18:04.200
<v Speaker 1>three hundred yards and two touchdowns per game. So I

0:18:04.560 --> 0:18:06.439
<v Speaker 1>like that angler. I actually think it's passing hasn't been

0:18:06.480 --> 0:18:09.399
<v Speaker 1>half bad. Matt your quarterback. First off, I have to

0:18:09.440 --> 0:18:12.399
<v Speaker 1>read a text message from my wife Melissa, who says, nope,

0:18:12.560 --> 0:18:18.480
<v Speaker 1>not how you Thank God, well done Melissa. Yes, my

0:18:18.640 --> 0:18:21.400
<v Speaker 1>take a chance on me. Quarterback is Baker Mayfield, who's

0:18:21.440 --> 0:18:24.399
<v Speaker 1>available and I think has some huge upside here. Uh.

0:18:24.480 --> 0:18:27.920
<v Speaker 1>The Falcons have given up over three hundred yards passing

0:18:28.280 --> 0:18:31.240
<v Speaker 1>to six of the eight quarterbacks they faced on the season,

0:18:32.160 --> 0:18:36.439
<v Speaker 1>and three or more touchdown passes to five of those

0:18:36.520 --> 0:18:40.840
<v Speaker 1>six quarterbacks. So five quarterbacks have topped three hundred and

0:18:40.960 --> 0:18:44.720
<v Speaker 1>had at least three touchdowns. Amazing. That's nuts. Now, Baker

0:18:44.760 --> 0:18:46.680
<v Speaker 1>hasn't topped the three hundred yard mark in the last

0:18:46.720 --> 0:18:49.280
<v Speaker 1>four weeks, but he has thrown multiple touchdown passes in

0:18:49.320 --> 0:18:51.600
<v Speaker 1>each of his last three. I like that streak to

0:18:51.600 --> 0:18:54.080
<v Speaker 1>continue this week. I like him too. You know, Baker

0:18:54.160 --> 0:18:56.400
<v Speaker 1>keeps having these easy matchups and he hasn't really exploited

0:18:56.480 --> 0:18:58.200
<v Speaker 1>him yet. Maybe this is the one where it all

0:18:58.240 --> 0:19:02.280
<v Speaker 1>comes together. Josh Rosen goes up against Kansas City and

0:19:02.359 --> 0:19:05.680
<v Speaker 1>before last week's by he you may have not remembered,

0:19:05.680 --> 0:19:07.400
<v Speaker 1>and I don't blame you. He's had his best game

0:19:07.400 --> 0:19:09.720
<v Speaker 1>ever two hundred fifty two yards and two touchdowns for

0:19:09.800 --> 0:19:13.240
<v Speaker 1>Josh Rosen, Larry Fitzgerald finally healthy for the first time

0:19:13.280 --> 0:19:17.400
<v Speaker 1>since September, and David Johnson has an awesome matchup through

0:19:17.400 --> 0:19:20.879
<v Speaker 1>the air. The Kansas City secondary playing better middle of

0:19:20.880 --> 0:19:25.040
<v Speaker 1>the pack anyway, but every opposing quarterback except Case Keenum

0:19:25.040 --> 0:19:28.840
<v Speaker 1>has scored against them, and the Cardinals sixteen point underdogs

0:19:28.840 --> 0:19:31.960
<v Speaker 1>are likely to be playing from behind and throwing constantly

0:19:32.040 --> 0:19:36.000
<v Speaker 1>in this game. I love David Johnson by himself might

0:19:36.040 --> 0:19:38.200
<v Speaker 1>power Josh Rosen to a huge game through the air.

0:19:38.840 --> 0:19:41.120
<v Speaker 1>Let's go to the running back position, Scott, I'm going

0:19:41.320 --> 0:19:43.480
<v Speaker 1>way off for it here with a guy named Josh

0:19:43.480 --> 0:19:47.080
<v Speaker 1>Adams for the Eagles. UH. Adams said. Adams lead the

0:19:47.080 --> 0:19:50.240
<v Speaker 1>team and carries last week, you know, before the bye,

0:19:50.320 --> 0:19:52.560
<v Speaker 1>and he has fifty of the team's running back to

0:19:52.880 --> 0:19:55.400
<v Speaker 1>attempts inside the tent over the last two weeks. He's

0:19:55.400 --> 0:19:57.760
<v Speaker 1>a bigger back. He average six point eight yards per

0:19:57.800 --> 0:20:01.680
<v Speaker 1>carrying that game against Jacksonville, which is pretty good run defense. UH.

0:20:01.800 --> 0:20:05.119
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys will be without Sean Lee and Sprawls. Darren Sprawls

0:20:05.240 --> 0:20:07.439
<v Speaker 1>is already marked out. They know what they have in

0:20:07.440 --> 0:20:09.960
<v Speaker 1>small Wood and Clement. I can see them giving Adams

0:20:10.080 --> 0:20:13.800
<v Speaker 1>a legit shot here Okay, I've got Edo Smith of

0:20:13.840 --> 0:20:16.840
<v Speaker 1>the Falcons going against Cleveland. He's due for about twelve

0:20:16.960 --> 0:20:20.040
<v Speaker 1>ish touches in this game, splitting time with Tevin Coleman,

0:20:20.119 --> 0:20:22.359
<v Speaker 1>but the matchup is just too juicy to pass on.

0:20:22.720 --> 0:20:25.920
<v Speaker 1>The Browns are bottom ten and nearly every statistical category

0:20:25.960 --> 0:20:29.000
<v Speaker 1>against opposing running backs. They're allowing an average of a

0:20:29.080 --> 0:20:31.639
<v Speaker 1>hundred and seventy two total yards per game to the

0:20:31.640 --> 0:20:34.800
<v Speaker 1>position that's tied, and they're tied for the most rushing

0:20:34.840 --> 0:20:38.760
<v Speaker 1>touchdowns allowed. The Falcons rank number eight in the NFL

0:20:38.920 --> 0:20:43.000
<v Speaker 1>in yards created before contact, So they're opening holes and

0:20:43.000 --> 0:20:47.639
<v Speaker 1>they're getting Edo open along the way. All right, I've

0:20:47.720 --> 0:20:52.000
<v Speaker 1>got Spencer wear against Arizona, and I I like this

0:20:52.040 --> 0:20:55.560
<v Speaker 1>one as much as I liked Duke Johnson last week, which,

0:20:55.600 --> 0:20:58.520
<v Speaker 1>by the way, I couldn't help but bring up, wait,

0:21:00.440 --> 0:21:04.520
<v Speaker 1>it's not on here? Where is what happened? Did Tony

0:21:04.600 --> 0:21:08.359
<v Speaker 1>take it with him? D I got two heavy carbons

0:21:08.440 --> 0:21:10.360
<v Speaker 1>and I don't have a I don't have a peacock.

0:21:11.400 --> 0:21:14.280
<v Speaker 1>But there it is. There's the peak. Where did the

0:21:15.520 --> 0:21:21.480
<v Speaker 1>from the button bar? Oh? This is not cool. There

0:21:21.480 --> 0:21:27.040
<v Speaker 1>it is there we go, thank you, uh Spencer? Where

0:21:27.119 --> 0:21:28.720
<v Speaker 1>the Chiefs are gonna roll in this game. As I

0:21:28.760 --> 0:21:31.720
<v Speaker 1>mentioned with Josh Rosen and backup runners, Spencer, where it's

0:21:31.720 --> 0:21:33.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna get a lot of run in this game. Arizona

0:21:33.880 --> 0:21:37.760
<v Speaker 1>sees the most rushing attempts by a mile, thirty four

0:21:37.840 --> 0:21:42.200
<v Speaker 1>per game. No chance Kareem Hunt gets thirty four carries

0:21:42.600 --> 0:21:46.159
<v Speaker 1>in this game in a one sided blowout. Here's what

0:21:46.320 --> 0:21:49.480
<v Speaker 1>some of the other backups have done against the Cardinals.

0:21:50.040 --> 0:21:53.720
<v Speaker 1>Royce Freeman scored a touchdown. Alfred Morris put up ninety yards.

0:21:53.760 --> 0:21:57.240
<v Speaker 1>These are all guys in a backup capacity. Rashad Penny

0:21:57.240 --> 0:22:00.720
<v Speaker 1>put up a career high fifty yards, Teri Cohen's seventy yards,

0:22:01.119 --> 0:22:05.520
<v Speaker 1>Malcolm Brown forty five yards, Chris Thompson hundred thirty yards

0:22:05.560 --> 0:22:09.760
<v Speaker 1>and a touchdown. All backup running backs. Arizona ranks thirty

0:22:09.800 --> 0:22:13.359
<v Speaker 1>one in rushing yards allowed per game. Every opponent except

0:22:13.400 --> 0:22:17.720
<v Speaker 1>San Francisco scored a rushing touchdown against them. Spencer, Where

0:22:18.720 --> 0:22:22.760
<v Speaker 1>let's go our final position receivers, Scott, Yeah, I'm gonna

0:22:22.760 --> 0:22:24.720
<v Speaker 1>go with John Ross. I think it's an upside dart

0:22:24.760 --> 0:22:27.600
<v Speaker 1>throw here. He's finally healthy, finally over that growing injury.

0:22:27.680 --> 0:22:29.800
<v Speaker 1>Has been practicing all week. He had ten targets in

0:22:29.840 --> 0:22:32.760
<v Speaker 1>the two games prior to missing missing time from that injury.

0:22:33.200 --> 0:22:35.800
<v Speaker 1>Fastest receiver in the NFL, Bengals have been playing catch

0:22:35.880 --> 0:22:38.160
<v Speaker 1>up with a J. Green out. All right, I've got

0:22:38.160 --> 0:22:41.960
<v Speaker 1>a deep deep dart throw here. It's Brashad Paraman, the

0:22:41.960 --> 0:22:45.240
<v Speaker 1>first round pick. That is deep. He's playing for Cleveland

0:22:45.280 --> 0:22:49.480
<v Speaker 1>now he's only played three games. Uh. Antonio Callaway's playing

0:22:49.480 --> 0:22:52.480
<v Speaker 1>time was cut significantly last week in the debut of

0:22:52.520 --> 0:22:56.760
<v Speaker 1>new offensive coordinator Freddie Kitchens. Callaway only ran twenty nine routes.

0:22:57.160 --> 0:23:01.040
<v Speaker 1>Pairman ran nineteen and out of all of the secondary

0:23:01.080 --> 0:23:05.280
<v Speaker 1>receivers for Cleveland, Pairman led the team in targets with six.

0:23:05.720 --> 0:23:08.800
<v Speaker 1>So the Falcons have allowed the seventh most receptions, third

0:23:08.800 --> 0:23:12.320
<v Speaker 1>most yards and touchdowns to the wide receiver position. Pairman

0:23:12.520 --> 0:23:14.800
<v Speaker 1>is a sneaky player on his outside. That is a

0:23:14.920 --> 0:23:21.800
<v Speaker 1>deep fast receivers no hands, Yeah, there's that. I'm going

0:23:21.800 --> 0:23:27.879
<v Speaker 1>with Maurice Harris wide receiver for the Redskins, Morris Mo Harris. Uh.

0:23:27.920 --> 0:23:30.160
<v Speaker 1>He he should work mostly out of the slot, which

0:23:30.200 --> 0:23:32.800
<v Speaker 1>is the bucks Achilles heel. They continue to start the

0:23:32.920 --> 0:23:36.360
<v Speaker 1>absolutely dreadful M. J. Stewart, perhaps the worst starting cornerback

0:23:36.359 --> 0:23:40.600
<v Speaker 1>in the NFL allowing He's allowing an almost perfect passer

0:23:40.720 --> 0:23:44.280
<v Speaker 1>rating of one hundred forty eight in his coverage nice,

0:23:44.560 --> 0:23:49.280
<v Speaker 1>which is almost unthinkable. Slot receivers Tyler Boyd, Juju Smith, Schuster,

0:23:49.400 --> 0:23:52.160
<v Speaker 1>Jarvis Landry, Nelson Aguilar all piled up at least eighty

0:23:52.200 --> 0:23:54.760
<v Speaker 1>eight receiving yards on M J. Stewart four out of

0:23:54.760 --> 0:23:59.040
<v Speaker 1>the five score touchdowns. Harris last week ten catches one

0:23:59.320 --> 0:24:01.840
<v Speaker 1>D twenty four yards. He could go back to back.

0:24:02.200 --> 0:24:04.199
<v Speaker 1>I know I don't have to pile on, but on

0:24:04.240 --> 0:24:06.600
<v Speaker 1>that slot thing. They've allowed the most yards and most

0:24:06.600 --> 0:24:08.960
<v Speaker 1>receptions to the slot in the NFL. There you go. Perfect.

0:24:09.200 --> 0:24:13.240
<v Speaker 1>Maurice Harris is our guy. Um so that I think

0:24:13.320 --> 0:24:15.320
<v Speaker 1>virtually all nine of those guys, so the exception of

0:24:15.320 --> 0:24:17.800
<v Speaker 1>Baker Mayfield, I think eight of the nine are on

0:24:17.880 --> 0:24:22.080
<v Speaker 1>waiver wires. Those are some deep sleepers and leeld Yeah,

0:24:22.240 --> 0:24:26.320
<v Speaker 1>you're probably right, and not I don't think so. I

0:24:26.359 --> 0:24:29.680
<v Speaker 1>don't think so. Lions take on the Bears. Let's start

0:24:29.680 --> 0:24:32.760
<v Speaker 1>on the Lions side where Matthew Stafford just got done

0:24:32.760 --> 0:24:35.720
<v Speaker 1>absorbing ten sacks at the hands of the Vikings, and

0:24:35.880 --> 0:24:38.920
<v Speaker 1>here comes Khalil Mack in the Bears defense. That ranks

0:24:38.960 --> 0:24:42.760
<v Speaker 1>six in sacks in the NFL. Chicago sack Stafford seven

0:24:42.800 --> 0:24:45.320
<v Speaker 1>times in the two games last year, and that was

0:24:45.359 --> 0:24:48.680
<v Speaker 1>before Khalil mac got there. I'm worried about Matthew Stafford's

0:24:48.720 --> 0:24:52.159
<v Speaker 1>health and and frankly his his entire future here. The

0:24:52.160 --> 0:24:55.600
<v Speaker 1>Lions offense looked utterly discombobulated last week without Golden Tate.

0:24:55.720 --> 0:24:58.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure it gets better this week. If Stafford

0:24:58.680 --> 0:25:00.720
<v Speaker 1>is gonna be harried for the whole game, I've got

0:25:00.800 --> 0:25:03.160
<v Speaker 1>him as a B grade, but it feels like now

0:25:03.160 --> 0:25:04.720
<v Speaker 1>that I'm talking about it feels like more like a

0:25:04.760 --> 0:25:08.920
<v Speaker 1>C grade for Matthew Stafford. Let's talk about his receivers.

0:25:09.280 --> 0:25:12.600
<v Speaker 1>Marvin Jones in the first game without Golden Tate lad

0:25:13.080 --> 0:25:16.600
<v Speaker 1>all the Detroit receivers in targets, receptions, and yards. So

0:25:16.640 --> 0:25:18.640
<v Speaker 1>maybe that's going to be a sign and a glimmer

0:25:18.640 --> 0:25:21.359
<v Speaker 1>of hope for Marvin. Jones has been pretty inconsistent this year.

0:25:21.720 --> 0:25:23.479
<v Speaker 1>In two meetings with the Bears last year, he put

0:25:23.560 --> 0:25:26.320
<v Speaker 1>up exactly eighty five yards, which is very solid. He

0:25:26.400 --> 0:25:28.640
<v Speaker 1>scored once they'll see a lot of Prince of Mukamara

0:25:28.760 --> 0:25:30.560
<v Speaker 1>was just the middle of the road cornerback B grade

0:25:30.560 --> 0:25:33.320
<v Speaker 1>and Marvin Jones C grade, and Kenny Golladay. In two

0:25:33.320 --> 0:25:37.080
<v Speaker 1>games against Chicago last year, he caught six passes. Yeah,

0:25:37.520 --> 0:25:40.040
<v Speaker 1>Colladay runs most of his routes from Kyle Fuller's side

0:25:40.040 --> 0:25:41.720
<v Speaker 1>of the field, and that's not good. In five of

0:25:41.760 --> 0:25:44.520
<v Speaker 1>the past six games, receivers have not topped forty one

0:25:44.600 --> 0:25:48.560
<v Speaker 1>yards in Kyle Fuller's coverage. Only one has scored in

0:25:48.560 --> 0:25:51.399
<v Speaker 1>the past six games. Kenny Golladay is just a C

0:25:51.760 --> 0:25:54.400
<v Speaker 1>grade start. Going to the running game, carry On Johnson

0:25:54.680 --> 0:25:56.560
<v Speaker 1>last week's out and was the first time Johnson was

0:25:56.600 --> 0:25:59.639
<v Speaker 1>held under five yards per carry when he got among

0:25:59.680 --> 0:26:01.880
<v Speaker 1>games of which got at least double digit rush attempts.

0:26:02.080 --> 0:26:04.200
<v Speaker 1>The Bears have been very good against the run, especially

0:26:04.240 --> 0:26:07.320
<v Speaker 1>the last two weeks without Khalil Mack who returns here.

0:26:08.280 --> 0:26:13.040
<v Speaker 1>Isaiah Crowell Lashawn McCoy combined for thirty five rushing yards

0:26:13.080 --> 0:26:16.959
<v Speaker 1>against the Bears. That's it. Tough matchup for carry On Johnson.

0:26:17.000 --> 0:26:19.440
<v Speaker 1>Maybe chips in some help through the air. I've got

0:26:19.440 --> 0:26:21.640
<v Speaker 1>a C grade on Carrie on Johnson and this one

0:26:22.000 --> 0:26:26.880
<v Speaker 1>and theoretic on the bench. Bears are allowing the fifth

0:26:26.960 --> 0:26:30.920
<v Speaker 1>fewest running backyards through the air, and only James White

0:26:30.960 --> 0:26:33.840
<v Speaker 1>is topped even thirty yards through the air against Chicago

0:26:34.040 --> 0:26:37.480
<v Speaker 1>all season long. Let's go to the bear side game

0:26:37.520 --> 0:26:40.160
<v Speaker 1>gets a lot more promising because the one really good

0:26:40.200 --> 0:26:42.800
<v Speaker 1>cornerback the Lions have, Darius Slay, is not going to

0:26:42.880 --> 0:26:46.520
<v Speaker 1>play in this game. So as I look at Mr Biscuit, first,

0:26:46.560 --> 0:26:48.640
<v Speaker 1>I looked at last week's game, and he barely even

0:26:48.640 --> 0:26:50.439
<v Speaker 1>passed because it was Buffalo and they got to an

0:26:50.440 --> 0:26:53.119
<v Speaker 1>early lead and they just ran the ball. But here's

0:26:53.119 --> 0:26:56.040
<v Speaker 1>the problem for this week. That's exactly what teams are

0:26:56.040 --> 0:26:59.240
<v Speaker 1>doing to the Lions. Detroit seeing the fewest passes per game,

0:26:59.400 --> 0:27:02.320
<v Speaker 1>just twenty eight, and over the past two weeks, Kirk

0:27:02.320 --> 0:27:05.840
<v Speaker 1>Cousins and Russell Wilson through just twenty two and seventeen

0:27:05.920 --> 0:27:09.240
<v Speaker 1>passes against the Lions. It's hard to roll up decent

0:27:09.240 --> 0:27:12.480
<v Speaker 1>fantasy stats if the volume just isn't there. And that's

0:27:12.480 --> 0:27:14.360
<v Speaker 1>why I've only got to be great and Mitch Drabinsky,

0:27:14.440 --> 0:27:17.200
<v Speaker 1>even with Darius Slay out, Let's go to the receivers.

0:27:18.640 --> 0:27:21.760
<v Speaker 1>Taylor Gabriel is a b start for me I Adams

0:27:21.760 --> 0:27:24.760
<v Speaker 1>to see until they ruled out Darius Slay. Strong speed

0:27:24.760 --> 0:27:27.080
<v Speaker 1>advantage over All, the rest of the Lion's corners. Gabriel

0:27:27.119 --> 0:27:29.720
<v Speaker 1>is very fast, and Slay is the fast corner they've got.

0:27:30.359 --> 0:27:33.600
<v Speaker 1>In fact, these Canna have matchups against the iron footed

0:27:34.040 --> 0:27:39.240
<v Speaker 1>Tease Tabor, something called Tease Tabor, who might be the

0:27:39.320 --> 0:27:42.240
<v Speaker 1>slowest corner in the lead league. He is a four

0:27:42.920 --> 0:27:48.880
<v Speaker 1>six seven forty yard dash corner. You almost never even

0:27:48.920 --> 0:27:51.680
<v Speaker 1>see that. Incidentally, if he has an iron foot, maybe

0:27:51.680 --> 0:27:53.679
<v Speaker 1>we should try him at kicker that they might want to.

0:27:55.000 --> 0:27:58.000
<v Speaker 1>I like Taylor Gabriel, be start on, be great on him.

0:27:58.040 --> 0:28:00.679
<v Speaker 1>Allen Robinson expected to come back for this game. I

0:28:00.720 --> 0:28:02.960
<v Speaker 1>still prefer Gabriel because of that speed had manage. But

0:28:03.240 --> 0:28:06.440
<v Speaker 1>Robinson's also startable in this matchup with a C grade. Again,

0:28:06.520 --> 0:28:08.840
<v Speaker 1>Darius lay Out helps him too. And then let's go

0:28:09.000 --> 0:28:10.720
<v Speaker 1>last part of the passing game for the Bears. Trey

0:28:10.720 --> 0:28:13.280
<v Speaker 1>Burton has scored in five of the past seven games.

0:28:13.560 --> 0:28:15.720
<v Speaker 1>Lions are middle of the pack tight end defense that's

0:28:15.760 --> 0:28:20.200
<v Speaker 1>allowed touchdowns to the likes of Garrett Selleck, Jeff Swain,

0:28:20.840 --> 0:28:24.479
<v Speaker 1>Lance Kendricks, and Ed Dixon. If those tight ends can

0:28:24.520 --> 0:28:28.240
<v Speaker 1>score touchdowns against the Lions, so ken Trey Burton also

0:28:28.359 --> 0:28:30.640
<v Speaker 1>a B start. Now let's look at the running backs

0:28:30.680 --> 0:28:33.879
<v Speaker 1>for Chicago. Jordan Howard. Nearly half of his rushing yards

0:28:33.880 --> 0:28:35.919
<v Speaker 1>have come in the fourth quarter in overtime, and that

0:28:35.960 --> 0:28:37.640
<v Speaker 1>plays well if you believe the Bears will be running

0:28:37.640 --> 0:28:39.840
<v Speaker 1>out the clock against the Lions this week, which I

0:28:39.840 --> 0:28:42.640
<v Speaker 1>think they probably will. Now it's a little unfair, but

0:28:43.560 --> 0:28:48.880
<v Speaker 1>aside from Dalvin Cook's seventy one yard dash, since the

0:28:48.960 --> 0:28:53.520
<v Speaker 1>Lions got Snacks Harrison, all the rest of their runs

0:28:54.200 --> 0:28:57.200
<v Speaker 1>they're giving up three point three yards per carry. That's it. Now,

0:28:57.280 --> 0:28:59.400
<v Speaker 1>keep in mind this was a Lions defense that was

0:28:59.400 --> 0:29:04.800
<v Speaker 1>giving up six yards per carry before Snacks Harrison. So

0:29:05.000 --> 0:29:07.520
<v Speaker 1>again it's a little unfair to take Dalvin Cook's run away,

0:29:07.600 --> 0:29:11.800
<v Speaker 1>but if you do, they're they're double as effective as

0:29:11.840 --> 0:29:14.800
<v Speaker 1>a run defense. Jordan Howard has a B grade Trek Cohen.

0:29:15.480 --> 0:29:18.640
<v Speaker 1>From weeks fourth through seven, Cohen was rocking it with

0:29:19.080 --> 0:29:21.720
<v Speaker 1>seven or more receptions during those three games, and then

0:29:22.280 --> 0:29:25.240
<v Speaker 1>he's had three or fewer receptions in the other five games,

0:29:25.240 --> 0:29:27.040
<v Speaker 1>included the last two games in which he's had just

0:29:27.080 --> 0:29:29.360
<v Speaker 1>two catches, and then his rushing members just haven't been there.

0:29:29.360 --> 0:29:32.400
<v Speaker 1>The usage has been very peculiar for him. Um lines

0:29:32.440 --> 0:29:35.920
<v Speaker 1>are middle of the pack against receiving running backs, so

0:29:35.960 --> 0:29:38.960
<v Speaker 1>I've got Tree Cohen as a C grade for this

0:29:39.040 --> 0:29:42.440
<v Speaker 1>game because the usage just hasn't been there lately, and

0:29:42.480 --> 0:29:44.560
<v Speaker 1>I can't be sure that he's gonna get rushes or

0:29:44.560 --> 0:29:47.640
<v Speaker 1>receptions anymore. It might be the first game in a

0:29:47.640 --> 0:29:50.959
<v Speaker 1>long time I've had Tree Cohen ahead of Jordan Howard.

0:29:51.320 --> 0:29:53.560
<v Speaker 1>When we come back, plenty more matchups to get to,

0:29:53.680 --> 0:29:57.120
<v Speaker 1>including Falcons Brown's. Matt already told you a couple of

0:29:57.160 --> 0:29:58.880
<v Speaker 1>guys that he likes for that game. Will tell you

0:29:59.000 --> 0:30:01.760
<v Speaker 1>if there's an anybody on the Falcons you don't want

0:30:01.760 --> 0:30:04.600
<v Speaker 1>to start well. Tavin Coleman scored twice again. Find out

0:30:04.600 --> 0:30:07.200
<v Speaker 1>when we come back this afternoon at two thirties. The

0:30:07.320 --> 0:30:10.480
<v Speaker 1>Minnesota Gopher his host for two on FM one three.

0:30:10.520 --> 0:30:13.280
<v Speaker 1>The fans a greater Twin Cities Onto Dealers are proud

0:30:13.280 --> 0:30:39.360
<v Speaker 1>sub orders of Gopher Athletics on Higheart Radio. Welcome back

0:30:39.360 --> 0:30:41.360
<v Speaker 1>to the show Fantasy Football Weekly on the Fan. Paul

0:30:41.480 --> 0:30:44.000
<v Speaker 1>Church and Scott Fish Matt Harrison with you. We've got

0:30:44.000 --> 0:30:47.280
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of matchups to get to, including a potential

0:30:48.480 --> 0:30:51.560
<v Speaker 1>point orgy Falcons Browns. I mean, you don't think of

0:30:51.640 --> 0:30:54.160
<v Speaker 1>the Browns as being a part of a high scoring game.

0:30:54.240 --> 0:30:57.320
<v Speaker 1>But I think they can be year under. Yeah, how

0:30:57.320 --> 0:31:00.000
<v Speaker 1>about that. I love all virtually everybody on the Falcons.

0:31:00.080 --> 0:31:02.760
<v Speaker 1>Let's uh, where do you want to start? Matt Ryan? Sure,

0:31:03.160 --> 0:31:06.600
<v Speaker 1>let's talk about Matt Ryan. He's my number three quarterback

0:31:06.680 --> 0:31:08.560
<v Speaker 1>this week. Love them. I gave him an A grade.

0:31:08.680 --> 0:31:11.080
<v Speaker 1>Each of the last six quarterbacks to face the Browns

0:31:11.080 --> 0:31:14.960
<v Speaker 1>have either had two or more yards or multiple touchdown passes,

0:31:15.160 --> 0:31:17.120
<v Speaker 1>and I think Matt Ryan can do both this week.

0:31:17.720 --> 0:31:21.040
<v Speaker 1>Um Julio Jones obvious a he scored last week, faces

0:31:21.080 --> 0:31:23.200
<v Speaker 1>a banged up Denzel Ward. I'm not scared of a

0:31:23.200 --> 0:31:26.600
<v Speaker 1>banged up Denzel Ward. Calvin Ridley and Mohammed Sanu are

0:31:26.640 --> 0:31:29.560
<v Speaker 1>even plays. There are Sea grades. Damarius Randall and e J.

0:31:29.720 --> 0:31:33.720
<v Speaker 1>Gaines are both also hurt members of the Cleveland secondary.

0:31:33.760 --> 0:31:36.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't think they're gonna go making. Ridley and Snow

0:31:36.440 --> 0:31:39.120
<v Speaker 1>both very viable and this I think Ridley could be

0:31:39.120 --> 0:31:42.000
<v Speaker 1>sitting on a great game. Yeah. Austin Hooper, I'm giving

0:31:42.040 --> 0:31:45.400
<v Speaker 1>a tepid Sea grade too, because there's a lot of

0:31:45.400 --> 0:31:48.840
<v Speaker 1>tight ends out this week. Travis Kelsey and Jared Cook

0:31:48.960 --> 0:31:53.000
<v Speaker 1>each top nine yards and scored twice against Cleveland, but

0:31:53.080 --> 0:31:55.960
<v Speaker 1>no other tight end has done anything against them, so

0:31:56.120 --> 0:31:59.280
<v Speaker 1>it's no scores besides those two players the rest of

0:31:59.280 --> 0:32:03.280
<v Speaker 1>the season. So Hooper, I'm I'm very tentative on I

0:32:03.400 --> 0:32:05.720
<v Speaker 1>already talked about Edo Smiths might take a chance on

0:32:05.760 --> 0:32:08.240
<v Speaker 1>me runner, and for very much the same reason. I

0:32:08.280 --> 0:32:10.280
<v Speaker 1>like Tevin Coleman a lot this week. Although he split

0:32:10.320 --> 0:32:13.880
<v Speaker 1>and carries, he gets about a C plus grade B

0:32:14.120 --> 0:32:16.720
<v Speaker 1>minus somewhere in there. That's about where Edo Smith is.

0:32:17.040 --> 0:32:19.520
<v Speaker 1>I already talked about how bad the Browns run defenses,

0:32:19.560 --> 0:32:22.280
<v Speaker 1>So let's go over to the other side. Baker Mayfield

0:32:22.320 --> 0:32:24.920
<v Speaker 1>might take a chance on the quarterback, who, by the way,

0:32:24.960 --> 0:32:29.200
<v Speaker 1>is available in sixty of ESPN leagues. I think you

0:32:29.320 --> 0:32:35.680
<v Speaker 1>have mostly roster six available, all right, you can pick

0:32:35.760 --> 0:32:37.920
<v Speaker 1>him up. Jarvis Landry is in a grade. In the

0:32:38.000 --> 0:32:40.960
<v Speaker 1>last two games, the Falcons have allowed almost five hundred

0:32:41.040 --> 0:32:44.520
<v Speaker 1>receiving yards to opposing wide receivers. This includes a hundred

0:32:44.520 --> 0:32:47.320
<v Speaker 1>and twenty four yards to the slot receiver Maurice Harris,

0:32:47.680 --> 0:32:50.200
<v Speaker 1>a hundred and sixty seven yards to the slot receiver

0:32:50.320 --> 0:32:53.640
<v Speaker 1>Sterling Shepherd. Jarvis Landry sitting on a huge game and

0:32:53.680 --> 0:32:56.160
<v Speaker 1>he's been super frustrating, and I know people are hesitant

0:32:56.200 --> 0:32:58.480
<v Speaker 1>to put him in lineups. But for the law of God,

0:32:58.560 --> 0:33:00.960
<v Speaker 1>this week do it if if not now win h

0:33:01.120 --> 0:33:03.840
<v Speaker 1>Brishad Pereman was might take a chance on me wide receiver.

0:33:03.920 --> 0:33:07.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm not in on the other Brown's wide receiver's callaway

0:33:07.200 --> 0:33:09.600
<v Speaker 1>or any of the other guys. And David and Joku.

0:33:09.720 --> 0:33:12.600
<v Speaker 1>He gets a C grade and Joku is topped. Fifty

0:33:12.680 --> 0:33:16.240
<v Speaker 1>yards are scored in five of Mayfield six starts, but

0:33:16.360 --> 0:33:19.320
<v Speaker 1>that sixth game was the goose egg in the awesome matchups.

0:33:19.360 --> 0:33:23.240
<v Speaker 1>Similar to this, the Falcons have or did allow last

0:33:23.280 --> 0:33:25.960
<v Speaker 1>week nine catches for ninety six yards to the Washington

0:33:26.080 --> 0:33:29.040
<v Speaker 1>tight ends. So in Jocus in a good spot and

0:33:29.120 --> 0:33:31.480
<v Speaker 1>Joku's got knee and rib injuries right now, and there's

0:33:31.480 --> 0:33:33.920
<v Speaker 1>a game time decision. You want to watch his status. Yeah,

0:33:33.960 --> 0:33:37.600
<v Speaker 1>he might be more out than in um. Moving on

0:33:37.720 --> 0:33:41.320
<v Speaker 1>Duke Johnson A grade. Atlanta hasn't been able to stop

0:33:41.360 --> 0:33:45.080
<v Speaker 1>pass catching running back since the Carter administration. Falcons have

0:33:45.240 --> 0:33:48.280
<v Speaker 1>allowed the most receptions and third most receiving yards to

0:33:48.320 --> 0:33:51.000
<v Speaker 1>opposing backs. And I've already allowed catch totals of nine,

0:33:51.080 --> 0:33:55.240
<v Speaker 1>fourteen and fifteen two single opposing running backs already this year.

0:33:55.440 --> 0:33:57.320
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to use Duke Johnson as might take a

0:33:57.400 --> 0:33:59.760
<v Speaker 1>chance on me runner. You guys went I would have

0:34:00.120 --> 0:34:03.200
<v Speaker 1>last week, and that's so obvious. You can't use him anymore. Well,

0:34:03.240 --> 0:34:06.240
<v Speaker 1>and he's like owned in like seventy or eighty percent

0:34:06.280 --> 0:34:09.840
<v Speaker 1>of leagues now correct last week it was. It sounded

0:34:10.160 --> 0:34:14.960
<v Speaker 1>much much better on Monday, before all the waivers ran.

0:34:15.320 --> 0:34:17.239
<v Speaker 1>He was a viable to take a chance, and that's right.

0:34:17.360 --> 0:34:19.520
<v Speaker 1>But then everybody figured it out and then he wasn't.

0:34:19.560 --> 0:34:23.440
<v Speaker 1>Alex Spencer Worth noting that Duke led all NFL running

0:34:23.440 --> 0:34:28.000
<v Speaker 1>backs in sten and seventeen in yards per touch, something

0:34:28.080 --> 0:34:32.600
<v Speaker 1>Hugh Jackson evidently forgot along the way. Freddie Kitchens hasn't though,

0:34:32.840 --> 0:34:34.840
<v Speaker 1>and Nick Chubb he gets a B grade two. Atlanta

0:34:34.880 --> 0:34:36.960
<v Speaker 1>is allowing four point three yards per carry this season,

0:34:37.000 --> 0:34:39.680
<v Speaker 1>and Chubb's carry toll just keeps going up, at twenty

0:34:39.680 --> 0:34:41.879
<v Speaker 1>three carries last week, so he's a good play as well.

0:34:42.440 --> 0:34:46.399
<v Speaker 1>Patriots take on the Titans Scott No, Rob Gronkowski. When

0:34:46.440 --> 0:34:50.440
<v Speaker 1>you look at the inconsistent production, fantasy production we're getting

0:34:50.440 --> 0:34:53.439
<v Speaker 1>from Tom Brady, Look at Gronk. He hasn't scored since

0:34:53.440 --> 0:34:56.440
<v Speaker 1>whatever Week three or something. And here's Tom Brady who's

0:34:56.600 --> 0:34:59.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, roughly quarterback fourteen in your league, right And

0:34:59.640 --> 0:35:01.239
<v Speaker 1>I think it's fair and that's probably where I have

0:35:01.320 --> 0:35:02.960
<v Speaker 1>about this week. I give him a B grade. The

0:35:02.960 --> 0:35:06.520
<v Speaker 1>Titans are top ten for passing yards allowed, but five

0:35:06.520 --> 0:35:10.200
<v Speaker 1>of those eight quarterbacks had multiple touchdowns and Brady over

0:35:10.200 --> 0:35:12.640
<v Speaker 1>the last six games his top two hundred seventy yards

0:35:12.640 --> 0:35:15.520
<v Speaker 1>in all of them, and he's averaging over two touchdowns

0:35:15.520 --> 0:35:18.080
<v Speaker 1>per game in that span. I think he's got a

0:35:18.080 --> 0:35:19.960
<v Speaker 1>pretty safe floor. That's why I like him as a

0:35:20.000 --> 0:35:23.640
<v Speaker 1>B grade. Obviously, gronks out, so I got a grade

0:35:23.640 --> 0:35:26.640
<v Speaker 1>on Gordon. Gordon finally broke out last week. Tom Brady

0:35:26.680 --> 0:35:28.560
<v Speaker 1>had some really nice stuff to say about him this

0:35:28.600 --> 0:35:31.160
<v Speaker 1>week about coming into early, staying lad, etcetera. A hundred

0:35:31.239 --> 0:35:34.000
<v Speaker 1>thirty yards and a touchdown on ten targets last week.

0:35:34.640 --> 0:35:37.720
<v Speaker 1>Since Joini New England, he's averaging eighteen yards per catch,

0:35:38.200 --> 0:35:40.920
<v Speaker 1>and over the last four weeks he's averaging eight targets

0:35:40.960 --> 0:35:44.040
<v Speaker 1>per game, four and a half catches and playing over

0:35:44.920 --> 0:35:47.680
<v Speaker 1>of the snaps. This is a Malcolm Butler revenge game.

0:35:47.960 --> 0:35:51.120
<v Speaker 1>He'll likely be on Gordon, but Butler has been terrible

0:35:51.160 --> 0:35:53.799
<v Speaker 1>this year. I I love that matchup for Gordon, and

0:35:53.840 --> 0:35:55.799
<v Speaker 1>I think I don't think Belichick needs to explain why

0:35:55.880 --> 0:35:58.120
<v Speaker 1>Butler was benched in the Super Bowl anymore based on race.

0:35:59.600 --> 0:36:03.120
<v Speaker 1>He's been really bad. I gave Edelman a B grade.

0:36:03.120 --> 0:36:05.719
<v Speaker 1>He's averaging nine targets per game and volume miss king.

0:36:05.800 --> 0:36:08.400
<v Speaker 1>With gronkout, he's probably gonna get even more middle of

0:36:08.440 --> 0:36:11.319
<v Speaker 1>the middle of the field work. Um. That alone has

0:36:11.360 --> 0:36:13.440
<v Speaker 1>propelled him to four of his last five games, or

0:36:13.480 --> 0:36:16.120
<v Speaker 1>four of his five games this season over fifty yards

0:36:16.120 --> 0:36:18.680
<v Speaker 1>and he's averaging five catches per game in those uh

0:36:18.760 --> 0:36:22.200
<v Speaker 1>and I saw it B grade there. James White, He's

0:36:22.200 --> 0:36:23.839
<v Speaker 1>a back. I like to give an A grade every

0:36:23.880 --> 0:36:27.279
<v Speaker 1>week too. Pretty much. The Titans are great against pass

0:36:27.320 --> 0:36:29.480
<v Speaker 1>catching running backs. But I think this is one of

0:36:29.480 --> 0:36:33.240
<v Speaker 1>those spots where White will overcome how great the Titans

0:36:33.239 --> 0:36:36.680
<v Speaker 1>had been against pass catching running backs. He's He's had

0:36:36.760 --> 0:36:39.240
<v Speaker 1>at least seven catches and three the last five games.

0:36:39.640 --> 0:36:43.600
<v Speaker 1>I can see that easily happening here. Michelle questionable. I'm

0:36:43.640 --> 0:36:46.440
<v Speaker 1>a little hesitant, but I think games script could get

0:36:46.480 --> 0:36:49.360
<v Speaker 1>them ahead. He could, he could get some good play.

0:36:49.600 --> 0:36:52.280
<v Speaker 1>I have him with a C grade here. The Titans

0:36:52.280 --> 0:36:55.239
<v Speaker 1>are allowing just three point three yards per carry over

0:36:55.280 --> 0:36:58.239
<v Speaker 1>the last five weeks and just one running back to

0:36:58.320 --> 0:37:01.560
<v Speaker 1>rush over seventy yards. But Michelle gets the starting role.

0:37:01.760 --> 0:37:04.719
<v Speaker 1>He's had really good games, lots of usage, lots of

0:37:04.719 --> 0:37:08.040
<v Speaker 1>good games. Yeah, so if if he's good enough to go,

0:37:08.200 --> 0:37:12.280
<v Speaker 1>I give him a starting grade. Uh. On the other side,

0:37:12.480 --> 0:37:15.120
<v Speaker 1>it's one of those weird weeks where I I kind

0:37:15.120 --> 0:37:18.600
<v Speaker 1>of like the streaming quarterback, the naked Mariotta out there

0:37:19.200 --> 0:37:22.480
<v Speaker 1>in DFS. I like playing Mariota, but I don't like

0:37:22.640 --> 0:37:25.839
<v Speaker 1>most of his most of his team. I think it's

0:37:25.840 --> 0:37:28.439
<v Speaker 1>going to be spread around. Davis is the obvious guy

0:37:28.520 --> 0:37:30.840
<v Speaker 1>to get a grade, but I don't have a starting

0:37:30.840 --> 0:37:33.120
<v Speaker 1>grade on him. I have him just barely making a

0:37:33.160 --> 0:37:35.239
<v Speaker 1>bench grade. H. I can see a C grade, but

0:37:35.280 --> 0:37:38.680
<v Speaker 1>he's going to be shadowed by Stefan Gilmour, who last

0:37:38.719 --> 0:37:41.120
<v Speaker 1>week and the third quarter switched over and shadowed your

0:37:41.360 --> 0:37:45.880
<v Speaker 1>take on from last week MBS about MVS as well. Yeah,

0:37:46.120 --> 0:37:50.000
<v Speaker 1>I had a good take a chance on the week Marquez.

0:37:51.200 --> 0:37:54.200
<v Speaker 1>I should mention Marquez Valdes Scalding. Scantling did not have

0:37:54.239 --> 0:37:58.920
<v Speaker 1>another catch after Gilmore switched over about that, so Belichick

0:37:59.000 --> 0:38:02.000
<v Speaker 1>obviously realized needs stop him and he's gonna use Gilmore

0:38:02.080 --> 0:38:04.320
<v Speaker 1>to try to stop Davis. That's why I don't like him.

0:38:04.360 --> 0:38:06.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't like John u even though he was a

0:38:06.120 --> 0:38:09.360
<v Speaker 1>great we We called that as a great uh pivot

0:38:09.520 --> 0:38:12.400
<v Speaker 1>from Gronk next last week and Johnah scored a touchdown,

0:38:14.200 --> 0:38:17.240
<v Speaker 1>but I had him on the bench. I have Derrick

0:38:17.280 --> 0:38:19.520
<v Speaker 1>Henry on the bench because he's a backup. Now he's

0:38:19.520 --> 0:38:21.480
<v Speaker 1>a clear back up, the clear backup. I do give

0:38:21.560 --> 0:38:24.040
<v Speaker 1>Lewis a B grade. For five straight weeks, back has

0:38:24.040 --> 0:38:26.799
<v Speaker 1>had fourteen or more touches against the Pats, every one

0:38:26.880 --> 0:38:29.080
<v Speaker 1>of them topped eighty yards, and in the last two weeks,

0:38:29.400 --> 0:38:32.040
<v Speaker 1>Lewis is averaging nineteen touches per game and top two

0:38:32.200 --> 0:38:35.240
<v Speaker 1>d total yards in both So be grade for Lewis

0:38:35.360 --> 0:38:39.800
<v Speaker 1>not bad. Um. Dan Lewis could be and their schedules

0:38:39.800 --> 0:38:41.799
<v Speaker 1>pretty easy the rest of the way. Dan Lewis could

0:38:41.800 --> 0:38:44.200
<v Speaker 1>be a sneaky guy that a league winner two years

0:38:44.239 --> 0:38:47.160
<v Speaker 1>in a row. Yeah, how about that? Maybe three? You've

0:38:47.160 --> 0:38:50.680
<v Speaker 1>probably forgotten and I don't blame you, listeners. Patriots Titans

0:38:51.080 --> 0:38:57.080
<v Speaker 1>is a rematch from the playoffs last year. Who remembers

0:38:57.200 --> 0:39:00.480
<v Speaker 1>that I remember the Titans beating the Chief send that

0:39:00.520 --> 0:39:04.400
<v Speaker 1>weird game. It was just a buy after that. I

0:39:04.440 --> 0:39:07.840
<v Speaker 1>think for the Patriot it really was. Thirty five to

0:39:07.920 --> 0:39:10.040
<v Speaker 1>fourteen was the final score of that game. And Brady

0:39:10.120 --> 0:39:13.680
<v Speaker 1>rolled up three touchdowns in that one, didn't The Patriots

0:39:13.719 --> 0:39:20.560
<v Speaker 1>played the Tennessee Titans in that freak blizzard. It warm, yeah,

0:39:20.640 --> 0:39:23.480
<v Speaker 1>like fifty nine nothing, and everybody pulled all their players

0:39:23.480 --> 0:39:27.160
<v Speaker 1>because it was crazy snowing, and if you pulled your Titans,

0:39:27.160 --> 0:39:29.359
<v Speaker 1>you were exactly right. And then all the then they

0:39:29.360 --> 0:39:31.840
<v Speaker 1>put up like I think it was fifty nine. I

0:39:31.880 --> 0:39:36.160
<v Speaker 1>think it was nothing. I believe hold on, I'm scrolling here.

0:39:36.160 --> 0:39:39.200
<v Speaker 1>It is right here. Could it have been October eighteenth though,

0:39:39.200 --> 0:39:41.440
<v Speaker 1>of two thousand nine? Was there really a blizzard in

0:39:41.480 --> 0:39:45.200
<v Speaker 1>October eighteenth of two thousand nine? And look outside? Tom

0:39:45.280 --> 0:39:50.640
<v Speaker 1>Brady six touchdown passes in that game? How about geez?

0:39:51.000 --> 0:39:53.480
<v Speaker 1>That's uh, that turned out well for them. Let's go

0:39:53.520 --> 0:39:55.000
<v Speaker 1>to the phones for a minute. We'll work in a

0:39:55.000 --> 0:40:02.399
<v Speaker 1>few collars. Ben, Hello, good morning all again. Did your call? Yeah,

0:40:02.520 --> 0:40:04.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna be kind of a pay in the rump.

0:40:04.880 --> 0:40:09.319
<v Speaker 1>It's definitely non PPR. You're if you can pick my

0:40:09.400 --> 0:40:15.040
<v Speaker 1>running backs, my flex position, I have the Browns running

0:40:15.080 --> 0:40:21.520
<v Speaker 1>backs and and Zeke. Otherwise than for Flex Ridley and

0:40:21.640 --> 0:40:26.120
<v Speaker 1>Tyrell Williams. I think Ridley has to be in Calvin Ridley.

0:40:26.280 --> 0:40:29.000
<v Speaker 1>Calvin Ridley has to be in my number eight receiver

0:40:29.120 --> 0:40:32.680
<v Speaker 1>this week. And you have both Brown's running backs and Zeke.

0:40:32.880 --> 0:40:35.160
<v Speaker 1>And here's the funny thing. This is Zeke's toughest matchup

0:40:35.160 --> 0:40:37.719
<v Speaker 1>of the Citizens. It's not this is not it's not

0:40:37.760 --> 0:40:41.160
<v Speaker 1>obvious that Zeke has to go in. Now that said,

0:40:41.200 --> 0:40:44.799
<v Speaker 1>it's standard scoring. Yeah, so if it's standard scoring, I

0:40:44.800 --> 0:40:47.680
<v Speaker 1>think we're leaving Duke Johnson on the bench unfortunately. Yeah,

0:40:47.800 --> 0:40:50.200
<v Speaker 1>if you're getting nothing for receptions, I think Duke's at

0:40:50.239 --> 0:40:53.520
<v Speaker 1>the odd man out, Okay. And then if I can

0:40:53.560 --> 0:40:58.040
<v Speaker 1>do in my league, it's touchdown heavy non PBR. And

0:40:58.160 --> 0:41:02.399
<v Speaker 1>that's just um two of two of these four Chub

0:41:02.680 --> 0:41:06.920
<v Speaker 1>and Zeke and Ridley and Edelman, it's almost the exact

0:41:06.960 --> 0:41:14.960
<v Speaker 1>same lineup. Yeahs run, I think Edelman's out. You got

0:41:14.960 --> 0:41:17.640
<v Speaker 1>three guys score touchdowns and Aleman generally doesn't. Yeah, I

0:41:17.680 --> 0:41:20.799
<v Speaker 1>think I think that's what I do. Thanks, Ben, appreciate it.

0:41:21.640 --> 0:41:24.120
<v Speaker 1>Ben is from Milwaukee and presumably listening at Cafe and

0:41:24.160 --> 0:41:25.960
<v Speaker 1>dot com or on the heart radio app, and you

0:41:25.960 --> 0:41:28.600
<v Speaker 1>could do that as well. If you are streaming abroad,

0:41:28.640 --> 0:41:30.640
<v Speaker 1>we encourage you to check both of those out when

0:41:30.640 --> 0:41:35.280
<v Speaker 1>we come back. Three hot questions for our panel of experts.

0:41:35.400 --> 0:41:38.120
<v Speaker 1>Well that's Matt Scott. You can play along see if

0:41:38.120 --> 0:41:41.239
<v Speaker 1>you wait, wait, wait what we're not experts anymore? Well,

0:41:41.880 --> 0:41:44.200
<v Speaker 1>you know it's that you're not a panel. It's too

0:41:44.360 --> 0:41:47.879
<v Speaker 1>it's to a panel. I don't know. I mean that's

0:41:47.960 --> 0:41:50.200
<v Speaker 1>I think it's a little ambiguous, all right, to plus

0:41:50.239 --> 0:41:52.239
<v Speaker 1>the listeners, you're saying we're not a panel, but we're

0:41:52.280 --> 0:41:54.920
<v Speaker 1>still experts. That is what I'm saying. That's a lot

0:41:54.920 --> 0:41:57.960
<v Speaker 1>of thank you for allowing me to clarify that the

0:41:57.960 --> 0:42:02.360

<v Speaker 1>do is beat me. And I decided I'm not playing

0:43:10.680 --> 0:43:13.880
<v Speaker 1>any part. I think any part. Uh, I think of

0:43:13.960 --> 0:43:17.680
<v Speaker 1>the Chiefs passing game. So I think it's gonna be

0:43:18.200 --> 0:43:20.560
<v Speaker 1>a lot of running. Yeah, you got it. I didn't

0:43:20.560 --> 0:43:23.680
<v Speaker 1>start wear, but did go hunt. So yeah, we'll see.

0:43:24.200 --> 0:43:27.399
<v Speaker 1>That was the the chrest Charts challenge. Uh, it's not

0:43:27.520 --> 0:43:30.200
<v Speaker 1>my strongest. Here's what I'm really saying. It's not my

0:43:30.280 --> 0:43:33.719
<v Speaker 1>strongest roster of the year. Many thanks to our friends

0:43:33.760 --> 0:43:35.799
<v Speaker 1>at the Brewery, Shawn Ryan and Brett Moss and Lee

0:43:35.840 --> 0:43:38.440
<v Speaker 1>Wendinger and the owners Ted and Jody Marty and Dave Wilson,

0:43:38.800 --> 0:43:44.080
<v Speaker 1>general manager at Manny's delicious. Let's uh, let's dive in

0:43:46.640 --> 0:43:50.640
<v Speaker 1>hot question number one. In many leagues, the trade deadline

0:43:50.680 --> 0:43:52.880
<v Speaker 1>is happening very soon, if not in the next twenty

0:43:52.880 --> 0:43:56.880
<v Speaker 1>four hours. Should teams that are mathematically eliminated from the

0:43:56.920 --> 0:44:02.239
<v Speaker 1>playoffs be allowed to trade Scott? Absolutely, They have every

0:44:02.320 --> 0:44:04.560
<v Speaker 1>right to play spoiler. They have every right to play

0:44:04.560 --> 0:44:07.440
<v Speaker 1>within their in within the rules, to try to win

0:44:07.520 --> 0:44:10.480
<v Speaker 1>their games, try to play their best. Uh. Leagues have

0:44:10.600 --> 0:44:13.800
<v Speaker 1>rules against collusion, and if there's collusion, you reverse the trade.

0:44:13.800 --> 0:44:15.640
<v Speaker 1>That's really the only thing you're worried about in this

0:44:15.719 --> 0:44:18.880
<v Speaker 1>in this scenario here, Um, I know some leagues have

0:44:19.000 --> 0:44:22.120
<v Speaker 1>rules about mathematically eliminated teams, but if there's no rule, yeah,

0:44:22.120 --> 0:44:25.240
<v Speaker 1>absolutely you should be able to trade. Yeah. To add

0:44:25.239 --> 0:44:29.040
<v Speaker 1>to that, fantasy is supposed to be fun and fantasy leagues,

0:44:29.200 --> 0:44:32.719
<v Speaker 1>it's your job, leagues and commissioners, to devise ways to

0:44:32.920 --> 0:44:36.440
<v Speaker 1>keep the losers of your league engaged in the league.

0:44:37.120 --> 0:44:39.640
<v Speaker 1>Like one of one of our co workers at Fanball,

0:44:40.560 --> 0:44:43.279
<v Speaker 1>his league requires the loser of the league to take

0:44:43.280 --> 0:44:46.920
<v Speaker 1>the s A T s and report it, report the scores,

0:44:47.080 --> 0:44:48.960
<v Speaker 1>Like you don't want to be the last place guy,

0:44:49.000 --> 0:44:51.439
<v Speaker 1>so you want something to play for So I think

0:44:51.440 --> 0:44:54.800
<v Speaker 1>that it's it's our job to make sure that everybody

0:44:54.880 --> 0:44:58.000
<v Speaker 1>keeps playing. So yeah, they can trade all that and more.

0:44:58.760 --> 0:45:00.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm shocked and how many leagues are like this where

0:45:00.680 --> 0:45:03.280
<v Speaker 1>you know they don't they're so worried about this specter

0:45:03.400 --> 0:45:08.239
<v Speaker 1>of collusion that freaking happen. It's so rare. People get

0:45:08.280 --> 0:45:11.400
<v Speaker 1>all worked up about bad teams making trades with good teams.

0:45:12.000 --> 0:45:14.920
<v Speaker 1>Let it happen. It's just, you know, that's it's you

0:45:15.040 --> 0:45:17.200
<v Speaker 1>get to do that. That's part of the enjoyment of

0:45:17.239 --> 0:45:20.080
<v Speaker 1>the league. And I hate these leagues to try to

0:45:20.120 --> 0:45:24.640
<v Speaker 1>try to govern trades worst. And it's usually the commissioners

0:45:24.719 --> 0:45:26.840
<v Speaker 1>usually problem number one, because that guy is on a

0:45:26.880 --> 0:45:31.439
<v Speaker 1>power trader decided what's best for the league. So yes,

0:45:33.120 --> 0:45:36.279
<v Speaker 1>it is teams that are mathematically ELIMINATEDUNS Like, you're really

0:45:36.320 --> 0:45:39.799
<v Speaker 1>angry at commissioners, you know, because on Twitter, I keep

0:45:39.840 --> 0:45:42.359
<v Speaker 1>getting this stuff. I gotta step in. I gotta step

0:45:42.400 --> 0:45:44.480
<v Speaker 1>in on this trade. This team is one and seven

0:45:44.520 --> 0:45:47.359
<v Speaker 1>and they're giving up their best player, and no, you don't.

0:45:48.920 --> 0:45:52.640
<v Speaker 1>They give up your best player to try to build

0:45:52.640 --> 0:45:55.160
<v Speaker 1>a roster that can get to the playoffs. Come on,

0:45:57.280 --> 0:46:01.440
<v Speaker 1>question number two, lady, I bella here's likely to report

0:46:01.520 --> 0:46:05.319
<v Speaker 1>next week, and James Connor is in the Concussion protocol.

0:46:06.160 --> 0:46:15.320
<v Speaker 1>Considering Bell's likely cost of acquisition, are you buying Matt? Yeah?

0:46:15.360 --> 0:46:18.719
<v Speaker 1>That Connor and the concussion protocol thing. It makes it

0:46:18.800 --> 0:46:23.960
<v Speaker 1>interesting like somebody left the gate open right there. I

0:46:24.000 --> 0:46:26.120
<v Speaker 1>want to know what the likely cost to acquire him,

0:46:26.160 --> 0:46:29.000
<v Speaker 1>if it's if it's those RB two guys like Jordan

0:46:29.080 --> 0:46:31.360
<v Speaker 1>Howard or Kevin Coleman. I think it's RB two is

0:46:31.400 --> 0:46:34.560
<v Speaker 1>what it'll cost. That's clarify that into the question. That's

0:46:34.560 --> 0:46:38.400
<v Speaker 1>what I would try to acquire Levy on Bell four. Now,

0:46:38.600 --> 0:46:41.960
<v Speaker 1>note you can't acquire him from an owner that has

0:46:42.040 --> 0:46:44.799
<v Speaker 1>both Bell and Connor. You can only acquire him from

0:46:44.800 --> 0:46:47.839
<v Speaker 1>an owner that just has Bell, So you're not gonna

0:46:47.840 --> 0:46:49.799
<v Speaker 1>be able to get him in any other way. I

0:46:49.840 --> 0:46:53.359
<v Speaker 1>think so yes is you're giving yes? Is the yeah.

0:46:53.400 --> 0:46:56.600
<v Speaker 1>I would definitely try your yes, Scott, I would say

0:46:56.600 --> 0:46:58.440
<v Speaker 1>you should. You could try, but I don't think you're

0:46:58.440 --> 0:47:01.320
<v Speaker 1>gonna get it. I think that's him is past past

0:47:01.440 --> 0:47:05.160
<v Speaker 1>for people trying to get that bargain, because people now

0:47:05.239 --> 0:47:07.600
<v Speaker 1>know he is reporting and now no, he's in the

0:47:07.600 --> 0:47:10.920
<v Speaker 1>concussion Connors in the concussion protocol. I don't think you're

0:47:10.920 --> 0:47:13.440
<v Speaker 1>gonna get the trade you want to. Uh so, I

0:47:13.440 --> 0:47:15.400
<v Speaker 1>guess my answer is, yes, you should try, but I

0:47:15.400 --> 0:47:17.480
<v Speaker 1>don't think you're going to get it. Correct answers, No,

0:47:18.280 --> 0:47:21.440
<v Speaker 1>here's your best case scenario. So your best case scenario

0:47:21.480 --> 0:47:24.719
<v Speaker 1>looks like this. Ideally, for a belt Connor misses this

0:47:24.760 --> 0:47:28.319
<v Speaker 1>week with the concussion protocol, they immediately inject Bell in

0:47:28.400 --> 0:47:30.200
<v Speaker 1>on just a couple of days. Right, we think he's

0:47:30.840 --> 0:47:34.440
<v Speaker 1>likely report like Tuesday of next week, so they on

0:47:34.520 --> 0:47:37.200
<v Speaker 1>a handful of days, they're immediately inject him into the lineup.

0:47:37.280 --> 0:47:42.640
<v Speaker 1>And he's awesome. He's so good and so much better

0:47:42.680 --> 0:47:45.160
<v Speaker 1>than Connor that there's no debate going forward who the

0:47:45.200 --> 0:47:48.200
<v Speaker 1>best running back is. And the Steelers decided to play

0:47:48.239 --> 0:47:51.200
<v Speaker 1>Bell the rest of the year. That's what you're really

0:47:51.280 --> 0:47:54.240
<v Speaker 1>hoping for, is a best case scenario. Also, their mindset

0:47:54.320 --> 0:47:57.239
<v Speaker 1>is that they're gonna run the wheels off Bell because

0:47:57.239 --> 0:48:00.839
<v Speaker 1>they're not keeping him next year. There I that's that's

0:48:00.920 --> 0:48:03.200
<v Speaker 1>a possible. It's there are people that want to believe

0:48:03.239 --> 0:48:05.120
<v Speaker 1>that is the best part of the best case scenario.

0:48:05.440 --> 0:48:11.200
<v Speaker 1>But let's look at the more realistic scenarios like Connor's

0:48:11.200 --> 0:48:14.719
<v Speaker 1>got ten days between games. In all probability, he's gonna

0:48:14.719 --> 0:48:17.160
<v Speaker 1>be well out of the concussion protocol and he's your

0:48:17.160 --> 0:48:20.520
<v Speaker 1>starter next week. But even then, in a second more

0:48:20.560 --> 0:48:24.560
<v Speaker 1>probable scenario than the best case scenario, Connor misses maybe

0:48:24.560 --> 0:48:27.440
<v Speaker 1>a game. Bell gets some action because he's only been

0:48:27.480 --> 0:48:29.480
<v Speaker 1>on the team for a handful of days, and he

0:48:29.480 --> 0:48:32.640
<v Speaker 1>doesn't get a workhorse. Vers does not get workhorse number

0:48:32.680 --> 0:48:35.160
<v Speaker 1>of carries um he gets maybe I don't know half

0:48:35.160 --> 0:48:38.240
<v Speaker 1>the carries or something, or the carries and he looks fine,

0:48:38.440 --> 0:48:40.800
<v Speaker 1>but he doesn't look any better than Connor, and Connors

0:48:40.800 --> 0:48:45.240
<v Speaker 1>looked great, And nobody in that side that organization hates Connor.

0:48:45.360 --> 0:48:48.120
<v Speaker 1>They'll love Connor. What's not to like about the local

0:48:48.200 --> 0:48:50.760
<v Speaker 1>kid who beat cancer and has been in every measurable

0:48:50.800 --> 0:48:54.840
<v Speaker 1>way better than Levy On Bell, if you're going to

0:48:54.920 --> 0:48:57.000
<v Speaker 1>have to give up a guy that you would start

0:48:57.040 --> 0:49:00.479
<v Speaker 1>as your second running back, I need way, way more

0:49:00.600 --> 0:49:03.960
<v Speaker 1>probability of success than just this pipe dream best case.

0:49:04.000 --> 0:49:05.879
<v Speaker 1>There are a lot of really bad second running backs

0:49:05.880 --> 0:49:12.759
<v Speaker 1>on TEA hot question number three should playoff bound fantasy

0:49:12.840 --> 0:49:16.640
<v Speaker 1>teams burn a roster spot on Rex Burkhead, who's eligible

0:49:16.680 --> 0:49:21.040
<v Speaker 1>to come off. I are in week number thirteen, Scott. Sure,

0:49:21.520 --> 0:49:25.880
<v Speaker 1>if it's your last roster spot, sure, why not dash him? Uh?

0:49:26.200 --> 0:49:28.160
<v Speaker 1>The old trope is the Patriots run the ball a

0:49:28.160 --> 0:49:30.560
<v Speaker 1>ton more at the end of the season. I've never

0:49:30.560 --> 0:49:33.239
<v Speaker 1>really looked into the data on that until now. In

0:49:33.239 --> 0:49:37.480
<v Speaker 1>twenty sixteen, weeks one through twelve, the average running back

0:49:37.520 --> 0:49:41.120
<v Speaker 1>touches per game after week twelve thirty eight point five

0:49:41.400 --> 0:49:46.520
<v Speaker 1>thirteen more touches per game in December games Uh, weeks

0:49:46.520 --> 0:49:49.640
<v Speaker 1>thir team through seven tied roughly. Yes, all right, Thanksgiving,

0:49:49.640 --> 0:49:54.600
<v Speaker 1>Thanks Thanksgiving Forward. In seventeen that same that same area

0:49:54.920 --> 0:49:57.960
<v Speaker 1>one through twelve, thirty three touches per game Week thirteen

0:49:58.000 --> 0:50:00.960
<v Speaker 1>and on forty one touches per game, they go eight

0:50:00.960 --> 0:50:03.880
<v Speaker 1>to thirteen more running back touches per game in the

0:50:03.960 --> 0:50:06.160
<v Speaker 1>last month and a half of the season. Okay, so

0:50:06.280 --> 0:50:08.759
<v Speaker 1>I'm going, yes, dash it, just in case you never know.

0:50:10.080 --> 0:50:13.520
<v Speaker 1>For all of that and more. Rex Burkhead is the

0:50:13.560 --> 0:50:17.600
<v Speaker 1>red Savina Habanero of three hot questions. That's five hundred

0:50:17.640 --> 0:50:20.879
<v Speaker 1>thousands Scoville heating units. That's a lot. Yeah, I think

0:50:20.880 --> 0:50:23.040
<v Speaker 1>I think you should definitely pick him up. He's never

0:50:23.080 --> 0:50:25.200
<v Speaker 1>played more than twelve games in a season in his

0:50:25.280 --> 0:50:28.400
<v Speaker 1>five year career though, and it's it's worth noting that

0:50:28.440 --> 0:50:30.960
<v Speaker 1>he did play eight straight games last year, but he

0:50:31.000 --> 0:50:34.680
<v Speaker 1>did miss Week sixteen, seventeen and their Divisional round playoff

0:50:34.760 --> 0:50:37.839
<v Speaker 1>game before coming back in the conference championship in Super Bowl.

0:50:37.920 --> 0:50:40.480
<v Speaker 1>So while you're gonna put him on your roster, he's

0:50:40.520 --> 0:50:43.600
<v Speaker 1>gonna get dinged up again. Here's my When I wrote

0:50:43.600 --> 0:50:46.360
<v Speaker 1>the question out, my assumption is, well, yes, let's you know,

0:50:46.400 --> 0:50:48.560
<v Speaker 1>I want I want a part of the Patriots running backs.

0:50:48.600 --> 0:50:50.759
<v Speaker 1>But then I started looking into the schedule and what

0:50:50.840 --> 0:50:54.319
<v Speaker 1>I will be saying to you Thanksgiving week. For Week

0:50:54.360 --> 0:50:57.120
<v Speaker 1>thirteen against Minnesota, I think he gets a bench grade,

0:50:57.160 --> 0:51:00.560
<v Speaker 1>presumably under the assumption Sony Michelle is the team. He's

0:51:00.600 --> 0:51:04.279
<v Speaker 1>he's healthy, He's gonna be behind Michelle, and you're really

0:51:04.280 --> 0:51:06.400
<v Speaker 1>you're you're hoping. You chips in a few receptions and

0:51:06.400 --> 0:51:08.359
<v Speaker 1>gets a few carries against the Vikings. Don't like it.

0:51:08.560 --> 0:51:11.640
<v Speaker 1>Week fourteen, I think he gets like a Rex Burkhead

0:51:11.680 --> 0:51:14.120
<v Speaker 1>gets like a C grade against Miami. They're easy to

0:51:14.200 --> 0:51:15.920
<v Speaker 1>run on, but Michelle is gonna get all the first

0:51:16.040 --> 0:51:19.040
<v Speaker 1>runs at this thing. Um. And then I get to

0:51:19.080 --> 0:51:21.960
<v Speaker 1>Week fifteen at Pittsburgh. Maybe a C grade here, but

0:51:22.040 --> 0:51:24.799
<v Speaker 1>Pittsburgh's the top five run back running back defense through

0:51:24.840 --> 0:51:26.360
<v Speaker 1>the air and on the ground, so we might be

0:51:26.400 --> 0:51:29.440
<v Speaker 1>a bench guy there too. Then I'm Week sixteen against

0:51:29.440 --> 0:51:33.040
<v Speaker 1>Buffalo maybe a C grade. When those teams met in

0:51:33.120 --> 0:51:35.279
<v Speaker 1>week eight, Cordell Patterson only got who was a leading

0:51:35.360 --> 0:51:38.000
<v Speaker 1>running back with thirty eight yards um. Buffalo is actually

0:51:38.000 --> 0:51:41.560
<v Speaker 1>a really pretty good run defense. I don't so I

0:51:41.600 --> 0:51:43.839
<v Speaker 1>think we're looking at all bench and C grades from

0:51:43.840 --> 0:51:48.319
<v Speaker 1>Rex burkehead unless somebody gets hurt, well Michelle or White

0:51:48.320 --> 0:51:50.200
<v Speaker 1>gets hurt, and White never does. But if Michelle gets

0:51:50.440 --> 0:51:54.200
<v Speaker 1>which is very possible, now everything changes, the whole script flips,

0:51:54.200 --> 0:51:55.440
<v Speaker 1>and now he's an A and B guy most of

0:51:55.440 --> 0:52:00.920
<v Speaker 1>those weeks. Yeah, yeah, I think that you have to

0:52:00.920 --> 0:52:04.399
<v Speaker 1>look at the Patriots running back angle. As they get hurt,

0:52:04.880 --> 0:52:08.400
<v Speaker 1>they cycle through guys, they go hot hands sometimes, and

0:52:08.440 --> 0:52:10.080
<v Speaker 1>you just try to get a piece of it. If

0:52:10.120 --> 0:52:12.840
<v Speaker 1>at the beginning of the season people were avoiding James

0:52:12.840 --> 0:52:15.040
<v Speaker 1>White because he looked like he was third or fourth

0:52:15.040 --> 0:52:18.440
<v Speaker 1>on the depth chart, there, they're pretty happy having James White.

0:52:18.480 --> 0:52:20.640
<v Speaker 1>Now you just get a piece or two of the

0:52:20.640 --> 0:52:23.200
<v Speaker 1>Patriots running back stick it on the bench and see

0:52:23.239 --> 0:52:26.080
<v Speaker 1>what happens. Um I do have yes, because it is

0:52:26.120 --> 0:52:27.960
<v Speaker 1>only it only does cost you the last spot on

0:52:27.960 --> 0:52:30.120
<v Speaker 1>your bench. And Sony Michelle's hurt a lot. If they

0:52:30.239 --> 0:52:33.279
<v Speaker 1>they had they had a had a more solid running back,

0:52:33.640 --> 0:52:36.120
<v Speaker 1>this would be a different story. But it's not. I

0:52:36.160 --> 0:52:37.919
<v Speaker 1>don't think Rex Spurkhad is going to be the guy

0:52:37.960 --> 0:52:42.600
<v Speaker 1>that that runs you to a championship. Barring injury. Washington

0:52:42.760 --> 0:52:46.600
<v Speaker 1>takes on the Buccaneers. Hang on, I gotta flip pages.

0:52:48.440 --> 0:52:50.799
<v Speaker 1>Here's the thing you have to know about Washington and

0:52:50.800 --> 0:52:54.160
<v Speaker 1>why you should be trading away Adrian Peterson. Now. Their

0:52:54.200 --> 0:52:57.480
<v Speaker 1>star left tackle Trent Williams is gonna miss UH at

0:52:57.560 --> 0:52:59.520
<v Speaker 1>least two more weeks and maybe three more weeks after

0:52:59.560 --> 0:53:02.560
<v Speaker 1>thumb sir jury. Both of their guards done for the year.

0:53:02.600 --> 0:53:04.960
<v Speaker 1>They went on i R This week. They're right tackle

0:53:05.400 --> 0:53:07.600
<v Speaker 1>Morgan Moses may not play because he's got a sprained

0:53:07.640 --> 0:53:10.040
<v Speaker 1>MCL he had to leave last week's game. They could

0:53:10.160 --> 0:53:13.880
<v Speaker 1>very well be short four of five running back as

0:53:14.000 --> 0:53:18.520
<v Speaker 1>offensive lineman this week and going forward for the next month,

0:53:18.520 --> 0:53:21.320
<v Speaker 1>they could be. They will be short three for sure,

0:53:21.960 --> 0:53:23.839
<v Speaker 1>and then only at the bitter end are they only

0:53:23.840 --> 0:53:26.719
<v Speaker 1>short two starting offensive lineman not to mention the end

0:53:26.719 --> 0:53:30.200
<v Speaker 1>this season. Dallas, Philly, Jacksonville, Tennessee in Philadelphia, it's a

0:53:30.239 --> 0:53:34.600
<v Speaker 1>great time to divest in Adrian Peterson for to somebody

0:53:34.600 --> 0:53:36.719
<v Speaker 1>who doesn't pay attention to offensive lineman, like a lot

0:53:36.800 --> 0:53:38.959
<v Speaker 1>of people, don't look at what Adrian did last week

0:53:39.200 --> 0:53:43.279
<v Speaker 1>when these linemen went down nothing. All right, let's jump

0:53:43.280 --> 0:53:46.000
<v Speaker 1>into the matchup more directly now, knowing that the offensive

0:53:46.000 --> 0:53:48.000
<v Speaker 1>line is going to be a huge problem. Alex Smith

0:53:48.080 --> 0:53:50.960
<v Speaker 1>just a sea level start, easiest matchup of his season,

0:53:51.280 --> 0:53:53.160
<v Speaker 1>But I just think the offensive line makes him a

0:53:53.200 --> 0:53:56.200
<v Speaker 1>dicey start here. Tampa's allowed multiple passing touchdowns to every

0:53:56.239 --> 0:54:00.520
<v Speaker 1>non Nick Foles quarterback they've faced. I wish, I wish

0:54:00.520 --> 0:54:02.640
<v Speaker 1>Smith had better receivers. I wish that he had a

0:54:02.680 --> 0:54:05.560
<v Speaker 1>better offensive line. But maybe Jordan Reid will help, and

0:54:05.560 --> 0:54:07.960
<v Speaker 1>Maurice Harris was might take a chance on the wide receiver.

0:54:08.040 --> 0:54:10.040
<v Speaker 1>And I do think he's a sneaky start, even with

0:54:10.120 --> 0:54:14.279
<v Speaker 1>the offensive line woes. Jordan read a grade because I

0:54:14.320 --> 0:54:17.080
<v Speaker 1>see a lot of fast dump offs coming from Alex

0:54:17.120 --> 0:54:19.319
<v Speaker 1>Smith and that could reasonly that could fit the tight

0:54:19.400 --> 0:54:22.400
<v Speaker 1>end position anyway. And Tampa Bay is allowed to tighten touchdown.

0:54:22.440 --> 0:54:24.799
<v Speaker 1>In five of the last six games. They've given up

0:54:24.800 --> 0:54:27.200
<v Speaker 1>the second most fantasy points to tight ends, so a

0:54:27.320 --> 0:54:30.680
<v Speaker 1>nice start opportunity for Jordan. Read Also, they allow so

0:54:30.760 --> 0:54:35.400
<v Speaker 1>many yards to slot and and tight positions, which inside inside,

0:54:35.640 --> 0:54:39.719
<v Speaker 1>and that's where Jordan where you play sent snaps. Very nice. Uh,

0:54:39.800 --> 0:54:41.319
<v Speaker 1>let's go to the running backs. By the way, Paul

0:54:41.360 --> 0:54:42.840
<v Speaker 1>Richardson went on, I r if you missed that, you

0:54:42.840 --> 0:54:45.000
<v Speaker 1>can drop him out right to go to the running back.

0:54:45.040 --> 0:54:48.799
<v Speaker 1>Adrian Peterson's justice. See with the disastrous offensive line, he's

0:54:48.840 --> 0:54:50.719
<v Speaker 1>a runner who can't make his own running lanes. The

0:54:50.719 --> 0:54:53.279
<v Speaker 1>Buccaneers have a lot of fourteen touchdowns to running backs, though,

0:54:53.320 --> 0:54:56.520
<v Speaker 1>so you're banking on a short touchdown to salvage Adrian's day.

0:54:56.560 --> 0:54:58.040
<v Speaker 1>And that's why he gets a seat and not a

0:54:58.080 --> 0:55:01.400
<v Speaker 1>bench grade. Um Vernon Davis is an actual If you

0:55:01.440 --> 0:55:04.279
<v Speaker 1>are in a pinch at tight end like you've got

0:55:04.280 --> 0:55:06.000
<v Speaker 1>gron and he looks like he's gonna miss another game,

0:55:06.280 --> 0:55:08.799
<v Speaker 1>Vernon Davis saw a season high seven targets and five

0:55:08.840 --> 0:55:12.040
<v Speaker 1>catches last week against Atlanta. As I mentioned earlier, Tampa

0:55:12.160 --> 0:55:14.360
<v Speaker 1>dreadful against the tight end position. I've got a C

0:55:14.600 --> 0:55:18.640
<v Speaker 1>grade on on Vernon Davis. Let's go to the Tampa side.

0:55:19.120 --> 0:55:23.040
<v Speaker 1>A grade for my guy Stubird, Ryan Fitzpatrick. His average

0:55:23.080 --> 0:55:28.480
<v Speaker 1>full game this year for Ryan Fitzpatrick a mind bending

0:55:28.719 --> 0:55:33.600
<v Speaker 1>three hundred seventy yards and three point eight touchdown passes

0:55:33.640 --> 0:55:37.000
<v Speaker 1>per game in his full games. The Redskins secondary is

0:55:37.000 --> 0:55:39.360
<v Speaker 1>a lot of passing touchdowns in every game since the opener,

0:55:39.520 --> 0:55:42.600
<v Speaker 1>and last week Matt Ryan just toyed with Josh Norman

0:55:42.640 --> 0:55:46.280
<v Speaker 1>and Fabian Moreau cornerbacks for the Redskins, scoring four times

0:55:46.280 --> 0:55:48.960
<v Speaker 1>in that game. Every good pass or to face the

0:55:48.960 --> 0:55:52.160
<v Speaker 1>Redskins is throwing multiple touchdowns. Ryan Fitzpatrick will too. Mike

0:55:52.200 --> 0:55:54.799
<v Speaker 1>Evans is an obvious a. I know he inexplicably only

0:55:54.840 --> 0:55:57.960
<v Speaker 1>caught one pass on ten targets last week, but he

0:55:58.000 --> 0:56:01.400
<v Speaker 1>bounces back just fine. Here. The Redskins have allowed an

0:56:01.440 --> 0:56:04.280
<v Speaker 1>average of seven catches for nineties six yards to number

0:56:04.280 --> 0:56:09.400
<v Speaker 1>one receivers. Let's go to Deshan Jackson. The downfield speed

0:56:09.400 --> 0:56:12.920
<v Speaker 1>that he's got perfect for Fitzpatrick and his bombs away

0:56:12.960 --> 0:56:16.360
<v Speaker 1>passing style. Josh Norman only plays one side of the field,

0:56:16.360 --> 0:56:19.680
<v Speaker 1>so the Bucks can isolate Jackson against the slumping Josh

0:56:19.719 --> 0:56:24.279
<v Speaker 1>Norman and utilize Jackson's massive speed advantage over Norman. I

0:56:24.400 --> 0:56:27.160
<v Speaker 1>like Deshan Jackson and this one b great for him.

0:56:27.200 --> 0:56:30.560
<v Speaker 1>Adam Humphries back to back really good games was Stu

0:56:30.680 --> 0:56:34.000
<v Speaker 1>Beard and he gets a matchup against Redskins slot corner

0:56:34.000 --> 0:56:37.480
<v Speaker 1>Fabian Moreau, who is slumping, allowing completions on twenty of

0:56:37.520 --> 0:56:41.400
<v Speaker 1>the last twenty three passes in Fabian Moreau's coverage, including

0:56:41.400 --> 0:56:47.239
<v Speaker 1>a touchdown last week. Adam Humphries C grade and that's

0:56:47.239 --> 0:56:49.080
<v Speaker 1>it for the O. J. Howard. I gotta mention him.

0:56:49.120 --> 0:56:50.960
<v Speaker 1>No tight end has gone over forty five yards against

0:56:50.960 --> 0:56:53.799
<v Speaker 1>the Redskins this season, but Howard is top fifty three

0:56:53.840 --> 0:56:57.200
<v Speaker 1>yards and all seven full games he has played. Howard

0:56:57.239 --> 0:56:59.760
<v Speaker 1>has also scored four times in his last four games.

0:57:00.000 --> 0:57:01.960
<v Speaker 1>Will definitely start O. J. Howard. He gets a B

0:57:02.080 --> 0:57:05.320
<v Speaker 1>grade at the tight end position. For the running running backs, UM,

0:57:05.440 --> 0:57:09.400
<v Speaker 1>we're on the bench. Peyton Barber broadly performing okay against

0:57:09.400 --> 0:57:12.399
<v Speaker 1>bad defenses, struggling with good ones. The Redskins are pretty

0:57:12.400 --> 0:57:15.400
<v Speaker 1>good run defense and occasionally they're an awesome run defense.

0:57:15.719 --> 0:57:19.240
<v Speaker 1>He's top thirteen touches. Peyton Barber has just once since

0:57:19.280 --> 0:57:22.120
<v Speaker 1>Week two. He's only scored one time all year. We're

0:57:22.120 --> 0:57:26.280
<v Speaker 1>gonna put Peyton Barber on the bench. How we doing

0:57:26.280 --> 0:57:27.720
<v Speaker 1>for time? We can work? Maybe we can work in

0:57:27.760 --> 0:57:29.960
<v Speaker 1>one more matchup because it's Jags Colts. There can't be

0:57:29.960 --> 0:57:32.240
<v Speaker 1>that much to talk about Ken there. Yeah, maybe that

0:57:32.400 --> 0:57:35.880
<v Speaker 1>kind of Leonard Fournette gets a see Carlos Hyde and

0:57:35.880 --> 0:57:37.760
<v Speaker 1>t J. Elden are on the bench, though, the risk

0:57:37.800 --> 0:57:40.960
<v Speaker 1>of aggravating that hamstring injury during the game is the

0:57:41.000 --> 0:57:43.680
<v Speaker 1>scariest proposition here. Still, the Cults have given up five

0:57:43.720 --> 0:57:45.840
<v Speaker 1>point nine yards per carried to the Bills and Raiders

0:57:45.880 --> 0:57:47.880
<v Speaker 1>running backs over the last two weeks, and they're giving

0:57:47.960 --> 0:57:50.320
<v Speaker 1>up a ton of them through the air to running

0:57:50.320 --> 0:57:52.720
<v Speaker 1>backs to Jalen or shot at eight catches last week,

0:57:52.800 --> 0:57:55.200
<v Speaker 1>James White had ten A few games back. If I

0:57:55.200 --> 0:57:57.560
<v Speaker 1>trusted the rotation where Yelden would be in play. But

0:57:57.600 --> 0:58:00.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't trust the rotation at all. Right now, Blake

0:58:00.560 --> 0:58:03.400
<v Speaker 1>Bortles is on the bench. In games where four net plays,

0:58:03.560 --> 0:58:07.880
<v Speaker 1>Bordles is averaging forty fewer passing yards per game, which

0:58:08.040 --> 0:58:11.800
<v Speaker 1>brings the passing game to a screeching halt for the Jaguars,

0:58:11.840 --> 0:58:14.400
<v Speaker 1>as does Blake Bortles. Yeah, that's true. Keelan Cole d D.

0:58:14.520 --> 0:58:18.520
<v Speaker 1>Westbrook and uh, the Dante Moncrief revenge game is all

0:58:18.560 --> 0:58:21.400
<v Speaker 1>on the bench. Moncreefe actually leads the team in targets.

0:58:21.400 --> 0:58:25.080
<v Speaker 1>So if you're absolutely forced to put a Jacksonville wide

0:58:25.080 --> 0:58:28.560
<v Speaker 1>receiver in your lineup, it's Moncreef this week. But what

0:58:28.680 --> 0:58:31.520
<v Speaker 1>league forces you to play a Jaguars wide receiver? Not

0:58:31.640 --> 0:58:34.600
<v Speaker 1>very many. On the other side, Marlon Mack, I'm giving

0:58:34.640 --> 0:58:36.920
<v Speaker 1>a C grade two and he's really the only starting

0:58:36.960 --> 0:58:38.920
<v Speaker 1>grade I'm giving on Indie. If there's hope, it's the

0:58:39.000 --> 0:58:41.480
<v Speaker 1>run game. The Jags have allowed and average of a

0:58:41.560 --> 0:58:44.440
<v Speaker 1>hundred and four rushing yards over their last four games

0:58:44.680 --> 0:58:47.040
<v Speaker 1>and are basically giving up a touchdown per game to

0:58:47.160 --> 0:58:50.400
<v Speaker 1>a lead back. Mac has six point two yards per

0:58:50.440 --> 0:58:53.080
<v Speaker 1>carry over his last three games, and he's the first

0:58:53.160 --> 0:58:55.880
<v Speaker 1>Cult to run for back to back one hundred yard

0:58:55.920 --> 0:59:00.439
<v Speaker 1>games since Josepha Die two thousand seven. That's going back. Yeah,

0:59:00.440 --> 0:59:03.800
<v Speaker 1>We're going always back. Um, So, I like Mac is

0:59:03.800 --> 0:59:09.720
<v Speaker 1>a C grade Andrew Luck he's a C minus bench grade. Jags. Yeah,

0:59:10.280 --> 0:59:13.480
<v Speaker 1>Jags are only allowing two hundred six yards per game.

0:59:13.720 --> 0:59:16.920
<v Speaker 1>That's the least in the NFL. Luck averages forty three

0:59:17.000 --> 0:59:20.920
<v Speaker 1>passing attempts per game, but opposing quarterbacks are only averaging

0:59:21.000 --> 0:59:23.360
<v Speaker 1>thirty against the Jags. I do worry about the drop

0:59:23.400 --> 0:59:25.840
<v Speaker 1>in volume. That something's got to give. They're not giving

0:59:25.920 --> 0:59:28.960
<v Speaker 1>up touchdowns. Everything's gonna have to be really short, and

0:59:29.000 --> 0:59:31.360
<v Speaker 1>I think that Luck, even if he gets to his

0:59:31.440 --> 0:59:35.000
<v Speaker 1>forty three attempts, he's looking at maybe two sixty and one.

0:59:35.360 --> 0:59:37.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, man, he comes into this game with

0:59:37.280 --> 0:59:40.480
<v Speaker 1>three or four touchdowns in five straight games, but he

0:59:40.680 --> 0:59:45.320
<v Speaker 1>ben grade Jacksonville. Well, I understand that you're just up

0:59:45.320 --> 0:59:47.880
<v Speaker 1>in my conviction to bench Andrew Luck when he needs

0:59:47.880 --> 0:59:49.720
<v Speaker 1>to be benched. He just had this is the time

0:59:49.840 --> 0:59:51.400
<v Speaker 1>you just had like a four touchdown game a couple

0:59:51.400 --> 0:59:56.200
<v Speaker 1>of weeks ago. Um t Y Hilton's on the bench too.

0:59:56.320 --> 0:59:58.360
<v Speaker 1>He played the last two weeks, but I'm not sure

0:59:58.400 --> 1:00:00.520
<v Speaker 1>he was fully healthy. He only had five catches in

1:00:00.560 --> 1:00:04.080
<v Speaker 1>fifty nine total yards and wins against Buffalo and Oakland.

1:00:04.120 --> 1:00:09.760
<v Speaker 1>He's only targeted nine times in those two games. Nine times,

1:00:10.080 --> 1:00:13.520
<v Speaker 1>and he probably draws the slam dunking Jalen Ramsey. Last

1:00:13.600 --> 1:00:17.000
<v Speaker 1>year against Ramsey, when Hilton was fully healthy, to catches

1:00:17.080 --> 1:00:20.040
<v Speaker 1>for twenty seven yards. Three catches for fifty one yards.

1:00:20.680 --> 1:00:22.800
<v Speaker 1>Jack Doyle and Eric Ebron are on the bench as well.

1:00:22.840 --> 1:00:24.760
<v Speaker 1>The Jags are allowing three and a half catches for

1:00:24.760 --> 1:00:26.880
<v Speaker 1>forty one yards the tight end position. As a whole.

1:00:26.920 --> 1:00:29.680
<v Speaker 1>They held Evan Engram and Gronk to under twenty yards.

1:00:30.160 --> 1:00:32.440
<v Speaker 1>Kelsey and Arts were the only guys who did anything

1:00:32.480 --> 1:00:35.240
<v Speaker 1>against the Jags. But Jack Doyle is not them, so

1:00:35.840 --> 1:00:38.080
<v Speaker 1>they're on the bench too. I might buy t Y

1:00:38.160 --> 1:00:40.520
<v Speaker 1>Hilton not low right. Nobody wants to start him against

1:00:40.520 --> 1:00:42.600
<v Speaker 1>the Jaguars. He's done nothing as he's been working through

1:00:42.600 --> 1:00:44.560
<v Speaker 1>this hamstring injury, but they just came up by and

1:00:44.600 --> 1:00:47.680
<v Speaker 1>I want to believe the hamstring injuries better. Now, what's

1:00:47.720 --> 1:00:50.000
<v Speaker 1>the rest of the season schedule on the Colts? Why

1:00:50.000 --> 1:00:51.760
<v Speaker 1>don't I tell you about the playoffs schedule for the

1:00:51.760 --> 1:00:55.280
<v Speaker 1>Colts right now? At Houston, then Dallas and then the Giants.

1:00:56.920 --> 1:01:00.880
<v Speaker 1>That's okay, okay, t Y Hilton. But t Y Hilton

1:01:01.160 --> 1:01:03.080
<v Speaker 1>might be your wide receiver three and you can plug

1:01:03.160 --> 1:01:05.160
<v Speaker 1>him in the right matchup there. I just think he's

1:01:05.280 --> 1:01:07.320
<v Speaker 1>cheap to buy right now. I might. I just always

1:01:07.360 --> 1:01:09.240
<v Speaker 1>have the sense, you know, I always like to buy

1:01:09.320 --> 1:01:12.720
<v Speaker 1>low on good players. T Y Hilton his values is low.

1:01:12.840 --> 1:01:15.120
<v Speaker 1>Was it's been in a long time, forever maybe for

1:01:15.280 --> 1:01:17.920
<v Speaker 1>maybe forever. Anybody else in that matchup we've done. That's

1:01:17.960 --> 1:01:20.520
<v Speaker 1>it all right? I interrupted, So I wasn't sure when

1:01:20.520 --> 1:01:25.200
<v Speaker 1>we come back, Saints take on the Bengals. You know

1:01:25.320 --> 1:01:28.080
<v Speaker 1>to start pretty much all your Saints. But what do

1:01:28.120 --> 1:01:31.640
<v Speaker 1>you do with Andy Dalton, Tyler boyd Ain't no A J.

1:01:31.800 --> 1:01:33.400
<v Speaker 1>Green in this one. We'll tell you when we come back.

1:01:33.640 --> 1:01:37.560
<v Speaker 1>This is Fantasy Football Weekly presented my green Bell Premium

1:01:37.800 --> 1:01:51.200
<v Speaker 1>on the Van. Welcome back to the show Fantasy Football

1:01:51.240 --> 1:01:53.400
<v Speaker 1>Weekly on the Fan. Paul Church and Scott Fish, Matt

1:01:53.440 --> 1:01:56.920
<v Speaker 1>Harrison with you Saints teak on the Bengal. Scott and

1:01:57.120 --> 1:01:59.320
<v Speaker 1>I think it's pretty obvious to start all your Saints

1:01:59.320 --> 1:02:01.520
<v Speaker 1>in this match up. I'm origin and what you have

1:02:01.560 --> 1:02:03.440
<v Speaker 1>to say about the Bengals, but you can start whichever

1:02:03.440 --> 1:02:05.800
<v Speaker 1>side of the matchup you prefer. Well, I'll just start

1:02:05.800 --> 1:02:07.880
<v Speaker 1>with the same saying you're I mean, you're right. I

1:02:07.920 --> 1:02:10.200
<v Speaker 1>have a grades on Breeze, Thomas and Kamara. I mean

1:02:10.240 --> 1:02:13.240
<v Speaker 1>the Bengals are bottom three against quarterbacks, running backs, watch

1:02:13.280 --> 1:02:17.160
<v Speaker 1>receivers and tight ends, so that makes it pretty easy.

1:02:17.320 --> 1:02:19.960
<v Speaker 1>I did give Trey Kawon Smith a C grade. Like

1:02:20.040 --> 1:02:23.280
<v Speaker 1>him more than that really, well, he has a great matchup.

1:02:23.480 --> 1:02:25.880
<v Speaker 1>He's only getting two to three catches per game, which

1:02:25.880 --> 1:02:29.000
<v Speaker 1>makes him risky, but uh and I don't maybe not

1:02:29.080 --> 1:02:32.120
<v Speaker 1>in this game though, Yeah, this is I feel like

1:02:32.160 --> 1:02:34.400
<v Speaker 1>he's a safer C grade than when I take homed

1:02:34.440 --> 1:02:36.880
<v Speaker 1>him last week and he saved you with a touchdown.

1:02:37.040 --> 1:02:39.640
<v Speaker 1>Did I did give Ben Watson a C grade as well,

1:02:39.720 --> 1:02:41.800
<v Speaker 1>just because it's a great matchup. He scored in two

1:02:41.800 --> 1:02:43.919
<v Speaker 1>straight weeks and he has thirteen catches over the last

1:02:43.920 --> 1:02:46.040
<v Speaker 1>three weeks, which surprised me. It didn't seem like he

1:02:46.800 --> 1:02:49.600
<v Speaker 1>would had Does Brian not torn as Achilles? I might

1:02:49.640 --> 1:02:52.200
<v Speaker 1>have benched him, but I'll put Watson in there with

1:02:52.200 --> 1:02:55.440
<v Speaker 1>a sea mark. Ingram I did give a B to

1:02:55.880 --> 1:02:59.280
<v Speaker 1>uh He it's mostly his three point six yards per carry.

1:02:59.320 --> 1:03:01.440
<v Speaker 1>Scare me be those de allowing five point four which

1:03:01.520 --> 1:03:05.000
<v Speaker 1>is helpful. Um. Over the last five weeks, six running

1:03:05.040 --> 1:03:07.480
<v Speaker 1>backs have had at least ten touches, five of them

1:03:07.520 --> 1:03:09.320
<v Speaker 1>top eight yards. I think both of these guys are

1:03:09.320 --> 1:03:12.040
<v Speaker 1>getting ten touches. Uh So, Ingram I gave a B.

1:03:12.840 --> 1:03:15.760
<v Speaker 1>On the other side, Dalton I gave a B grade. Here.

1:03:15.760 --> 1:03:17.960
<v Speaker 1>It's got the highest over under. Dalton's gonna have to

1:03:18.040 --> 1:03:21.520
<v Speaker 1>keep up. But he is without a J. Green um

1:03:21.560 --> 1:03:26.040
<v Speaker 1>and over the last three games, the Saints are allowing

1:03:26.160 --> 1:03:28.560
<v Speaker 1>just on our three fifty passing yards and two point

1:03:28.560 --> 1:03:31.040
<v Speaker 1>three touchdowns per games. So it made me really really

1:03:31.080 --> 1:03:33.640
<v Speaker 1>want to go in on Dalton. But without a J. Green,

1:03:33.800 --> 1:03:36.840
<v Speaker 1>his numbers just his yards per attempt, in yards per

1:03:36.840 --> 1:03:39.720
<v Speaker 1>reception take So I'm I'm a little worried there, but

1:03:39.760 --> 1:03:43.120
<v Speaker 1>he will be playing catchup Tyler Boyd. It's always it's

1:03:43.160 --> 1:03:45.600
<v Speaker 1>always concerning what happens. We saw what happened with thelan

1:03:45.680 --> 1:03:49.800
<v Speaker 1>with Diggs went out. Is Boyd? Don't think A J. Green?

1:03:49.920 --> 1:03:52.760
<v Speaker 1>Is his injuries good for Boyd? It's not right, Yeah,

1:03:52.800 --> 1:03:54.640
<v Speaker 1>it might not be, but you know it's good for

1:03:54.680 --> 1:03:58.560
<v Speaker 1>Boyd going up against P. J. Williams. So he gets

1:03:58.560 --> 1:04:01.120
<v Speaker 1>an a grade for me, But I'm not as confident

1:04:01.520 --> 1:04:03.520
<v Speaker 1>as some of the other analysts out there. I want

1:04:03.560 --> 1:04:05.640
<v Speaker 1>to see how he handles being a number one receiver,

1:04:06.160 --> 1:04:10.120
<v Speaker 1>although from the slot, presumably they'll keep him in the slot, yeah,

1:04:10.160 --> 1:04:13.920
<v Speaker 1>presumably to move him when he had success he's had

1:04:14.000 --> 1:04:16.840
<v Speaker 1>running from the slot. Exactly for me, Joe Mixon is

1:04:16.880 --> 1:04:19.680
<v Speaker 1>always a must start, but I tember my expectations here.

1:04:19.840 --> 1:04:22.960
<v Speaker 1>Mixing is averaging just twelve touches per game and losses

1:04:23.400 --> 1:04:27.040
<v Speaker 1>the Bengals are likely to fall behind. I still think

1:04:27.040 --> 1:04:30.720
<v Speaker 1>he's very startable, especially with Geo likely out again. Uh,

1:04:30.720 --> 1:04:32.520
<v Speaker 1>he should get that passing game work. I still give

1:04:32.600 --> 1:04:35.800
<v Speaker 1>him a B grade and Usama. Uh he Goreo sagged

1:04:35.800 --> 1:04:38.480
<v Speaker 1>in a great matchup last week. I know that, but

1:04:39.000 --> 1:04:41.760
<v Speaker 1>given the catchup, given a j Green out, I gave

1:04:41.840 --> 1:04:44.840
<v Speaker 1>him a C grade. Just barely agreed. Back to Trey Kwon,

1:04:45.000 --> 1:04:48.240
<v Speaker 1>look at listen to what speed receivers I'm actual rattle

1:04:48.320 --> 1:04:52.160
<v Speaker 1>up all the stats. Speed receivers have crushed the Bengals

1:04:52.240 --> 1:04:56.520
<v Speaker 1>all year long. John Brown, Calvin Ridley, t Y Hilton,

1:04:56.600 --> 1:05:00.640
<v Speaker 1>DeShawn Jackson just last week daggering the Bengals. I think,

1:05:00.680 --> 1:05:02.680
<v Speaker 1>Trey Kwan, it's a good start. I gotta be great

1:05:02.720 --> 1:05:04.760
<v Speaker 1>out By the way John Brown in this matchup, wasn't

1:05:04.760 --> 1:05:09.520
<v Speaker 1>I take a chance on me? Well, let's let's get

1:05:09.520 --> 1:05:14.240
<v Speaker 1>it to him for next week? Already just saying, uh,

1:05:14.360 --> 1:05:16.440
<v Speaker 1>Cardinals taking on the Chiefs. We've already alluded to this

1:05:16.480 --> 1:05:18.800
<v Speaker 1>matchup several times, including take a chance on me on

1:05:18.840 --> 1:05:22.040
<v Speaker 1>the Arizona side, Josh Rosen was might take a chance

1:05:22.080 --> 1:05:24.920
<v Speaker 1>on me quarterback, Plenty of volume coming in this matchup.

1:05:25.160 --> 1:05:28.600
<v Speaker 1>Larry Fitzgerald gets a C grade. Chief secondaries improved a lot.

1:05:28.720 --> 1:05:31.400
<v Speaker 1>Kansas City surrendered just too wide receiver touchdowns in the

1:05:31.480 --> 1:05:34.640
<v Speaker 1>last six weeks, so the early narrative about the terrible

1:05:34.720 --> 1:05:37.520
<v Speaker 1>Chief secondaries not coming true, at least to the wide

1:05:37.520 --> 1:05:41.800
<v Speaker 1>receiver position. Fitzgerald draws the Chief's best cornerback, Kendall Fuller,

1:05:41.840 --> 1:05:45.440
<v Speaker 1>who mans the slot for Kansas City. Still, Fitzgerald's coming

1:05:45.480 --> 1:05:47.400
<v Speaker 1>up back to back touchdown games, and he's seen eight

1:05:47.520 --> 1:05:49.800
<v Speaker 1>or more targets in three straight games, so he's still

1:05:49.800 --> 1:05:52.240
<v Speaker 1>absolutely startable here. So is Christian Kirk, who leads the

1:05:52.240 --> 1:05:55.000
<v Speaker 1>team in receiving yards, and he's posted decent numbers for

1:05:55.120 --> 1:05:57.760
<v Speaker 1>most of the last six weeks. Not explosive, just decent.

1:05:58.240 --> 1:06:01.720
<v Speaker 1>He's gonna see mostly a vastly improved version of Orlando Scandrick,

1:06:01.760 --> 1:06:03.840
<v Speaker 1>who is not allowed to touchdown in his coverage. Since

1:06:03.880 --> 1:06:06.439
<v Speaker 1>the opener, I have a C grade on Christian Kirk.

1:06:06.760 --> 1:06:10.400
<v Speaker 1>The real angle here, though, and especially for DFS play

1:06:10.600 --> 1:06:13.600
<v Speaker 1>David Johnson, Chiefs are gonna fall behind early and they're

1:06:13.600 --> 1:06:16.800
<v Speaker 1>gonna throw to Johnson a lot. The Chiefs have allowed

1:06:17.000 --> 1:06:21.080
<v Speaker 1>seven different running backs to gain over one hundred total yards.

1:06:21.120 --> 1:06:25.000
<v Speaker 1>They are dead last in running back receiving yards. They

1:06:25.000 --> 1:06:29.040
<v Speaker 1>are dead last in running back receiving touchdowns, their second

1:06:29.040 --> 1:06:32.880
<v Speaker 1>to last in running back receptions. David Johnson is sitting

1:06:32.920 --> 1:06:36.800
<v Speaker 1>on a massive PPR week eight thousand on fanball this week,

1:06:38.040 --> 1:06:40.840
<v Speaker 1>UM and fanball dot com slash a bid. It gives

1:06:40.840 --> 1:06:45.040
<v Speaker 1>you a chance to potentially auction for David Johnson as well. Uh,

1:06:45.160 --> 1:06:47.640
<v Speaker 1>let's go to the chief side. Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelsey,

1:06:47.680 --> 1:06:50.000
<v Speaker 1>Tyreek Hill all a starts. They do not require any

1:06:50.000 --> 1:06:57.080
<v Speaker 1>elaboration whatsoever. Not neither neither does, and maybe especially UH does.

1:06:57.200 --> 1:06:59.800
<v Speaker 1>Kareem Hunt because this is the worst run defense in

1:06:59.840 --> 1:07:02.280
<v Speaker 1>the league. Kareem Hunt is my favorite play of all

1:07:02.360 --> 1:07:05.640
<v Speaker 1>players across the board this week period end of stories,

1:07:05.720 --> 1:07:08.400
<v Speaker 1>so much so that I even think Spencer wear Is

1:07:08.440 --> 1:07:10.520
<v Speaker 1>might take a chance. I mean, guy is going to

1:07:10.520 --> 1:07:13.280
<v Speaker 1>get fed in this one as well. And I've already

1:07:13.280 --> 1:07:15.560
<v Speaker 1>seen from Twitter people are gonna start both and I'm

1:07:15.560 --> 1:07:18.600
<v Speaker 1>totally fine with that. You can start Kareem Hunt and

1:07:18.640 --> 1:07:21.880
<v Speaker 1>Spencer Wearing This matchup last guy. I'll mention Sammy Watkins

1:07:21.880 --> 1:07:24.160
<v Speaker 1>dealing with a foot issue. He's been a real the

1:07:24.200 --> 1:07:26.120
<v Speaker 1>fush foot issue has been a recurring problem through his

1:07:26.160 --> 1:07:28.640
<v Speaker 1>whole career. I don't think he's going to play in

1:07:28.680 --> 1:07:30.480
<v Speaker 1>this game, and even if he does, it's a run

1:07:30.520 --> 1:07:34.960
<v Speaker 1>focused game and I'm nervous about him for this one

1:07:35.000 --> 1:07:39.440
<v Speaker 1>and he is on the bench. Next matchup, Chargers taking

1:07:39.480 --> 1:07:42.600
<v Speaker 1>on the Raiders. Matt It's uh. It's the first time

1:07:42.840 --> 1:07:46.560
<v Speaker 1>since week number two that Patrick Mahomes is not my

1:07:46.720 --> 1:07:51.600
<v Speaker 1>number one ranked quarterback and it's because Philip Rivers is. Yeah.

1:07:51.640 --> 1:07:54.600
<v Speaker 1>The Raiders have allowed the second most passing touchdowns this season,

1:07:54.640 --> 1:07:57.840
<v Speaker 1>including multiple touchdown passes to seven of the eight quarterbacks

1:07:57.840 --> 1:08:00.960
<v Speaker 1>they faced. Rivers is just a lock this week. He's

1:08:00.960 --> 1:08:04.040
<v Speaker 1>an easy a only quarterback in the NFL with multiple

1:08:04.080 --> 1:08:06.520
<v Speaker 1>touchdown passes every week of the season. He hasn't had

1:08:06.560 --> 1:08:11.080
<v Speaker 1>the huge splash game though, that's the one drawback three

1:08:11.080 --> 1:08:15.000
<v Speaker 1>touchdowns every week. He's super reliable. Though, Melvin Gordon getting

1:08:15.000 --> 1:08:17.080
<v Speaker 1>an A. You like Kareem Hunt as your top play

1:08:17.160 --> 1:08:20.120
<v Speaker 1>this week, you could argue that Melvin Gordon is right

1:08:20.160 --> 1:08:22.240
<v Speaker 1>in the same wheelhouse. Say both grade and ten out

1:08:22.240 --> 1:08:23.960
<v Speaker 1>of ten for me this week. Yeah, the Raiders are

1:08:24.000 --> 1:08:27.160
<v Speaker 1>bottom five and rushing yards yards per carrying, rushing touchdowns

1:08:27.160 --> 1:08:30.120
<v Speaker 1>allowed to running backs. That puts Austin Ekeler in play

1:08:30.120 --> 1:08:32.800
<v Speaker 1>in the similar vein that Spencer wears in play for

1:08:33.000 --> 1:08:36.240
<v Speaker 1>a C grade for Austin Ekeler. Keenan Allen, I'm giving

1:08:36.240 --> 1:08:38.800
<v Speaker 1>a B grade two. He had eight catches for ninety

1:08:38.880 --> 1:08:41.840
<v Speaker 1>yards in the first meeting against the Raiders. He's one

1:08:41.880 --> 1:08:44.400
<v Speaker 1>of only two wide receivers to hit the ninety yard

1:08:44.400 --> 1:08:47.040
<v Speaker 1>mark against the Raiders this year. Game script may just

1:08:47.120 --> 1:08:49.400
<v Speaker 1>not favor him because it's so easy to run on

1:08:49.520 --> 1:08:53.880
<v Speaker 1>Oakland and they just haven't. Oakland's been all right against

1:08:53.880 --> 1:08:58.080
<v Speaker 1>wide receivers, specifically uh Mike Williams and Tyrrell Williams. I'm

1:08:58.120 --> 1:09:00.960
<v Speaker 1>giving them C grades as well, though Iyrrell had sixty

1:09:01.000 --> 1:09:03.919
<v Speaker 1>six and Mike had forty five last time around against Oakland.

1:09:04.360 --> 1:09:07.200
<v Speaker 1>None of the wide receivers out of those three scored

1:09:07.200 --> 1:09:09.240
<v Speaker 1>a touchdown in the first meeting with the Raiders, though,

1:09:09.560 --> 1:09:12.920
<v Speaker 1>but Tyrrell has four touchdowns in the last three weeks

1:09:12.960 --> 1:09:15.920
<v Speaker 1>on only nine catches, and Mike has two touchdowns in

1:09:15.960 --> 1:09:20.640
<v Speaker 1>the last two weeks on two catches. That's it's a

1:09:20.640 --> 1:09:24.880
<v Speaker 1>pretty good duhver right now, Antonio Gates. I'm giving him

1:09:24.880 --> 1:09:28.519
<v Speaker 1>a desperation d start. There is no star it is.

1:09:28.560 --> 1:09:33.559
<v Speaker 1>It's for desperation. He only had two catches for nineteen

1:09:33.600 --> 1:09:36.479
<v Speaker 1>yards in the first matchup, but his counterpart Virgil Green

1:09:36.560 --> 1:09:39.439
<v Speaker 1>scored in that game. His ceiling is probably five targets.

1:09:39.479 --> 1:09:42.400
<v Speaker 1>But the Raiders are bottom ten in yards and touchdowns

1:09:42.400 --> 1:09:45.000
<v Speaker 1>allowed to the tight end position. Over on the Oakland side,

1:09:45.000 --> 1:09:47.719
<v Speaker 1>it's pretty dismal. Jared Cook is on the bench. Cook

1:09:47.760 --> 1:09:49.639
<v Speaker 1>has in top twenty yards and three of his last

1:09:49.640 --> 1:09:52.479
<v Speaker 1>four The Chargers are allowing less than forty yards per

1:09:52.479 --> 1:09:54.920
<v Speaker 1>game to the tight end over the last month. Jordi

1:09:55.000 --> 1:09:58.599
<v Speaker 1>and Martevis Bryant are on the bench. Uh Chargers are

1:09:58.640 --> 1:10:01.640
<v Speaker 1>top ten in reception and receiving yards allowed it to

1:10:01.760 --> 1:10:05.639
<v Speaker 1>wide receivers, which means all the passing game is terrible.

1:10:05.680 --> 1:10:08.640
<v Speaker 1>So Derek carrs obviously on the bench too. And the

1:10:08.680 --> 1:10:10.880
<v Speaker 1>only guy that you can even think of starting on

1:10:10.880 --> 1:10:13.679
<v Speaker 1>the Oakland side is Jalen Richard. He has the fifth

1:10:13.720 --> 1:10:16.679
<v Speaker 1>most receptions among running backs this season. He's averaging five

1:10:16.720 --> 1:10:19.160
<v Speaker 1>per game, and over their last four games, the Chargers

1:10:19.200 --> 1:10:21.519
<v Speaker 1>are allowing seven and a half receptions and seventy three

1:10:21.560 --> 1:10:24.200
<v Speaker 1>yards per game to opposing backs, So I could give

1:10:24.280 --> 1:10:28.320
<v Speaker 1>Jalen Rashard to see. But that's about it. Doug Martin

1:10:28.400 --> 1:10:30.760
<v Speaker 1>is a tough start. I used my number forty two

1:10:30.840 --> 1:10:33.639
<v Speaker 1>running back. That's why I didn't even mention it. I don't,

1:10:33.680 --> 1:10:35.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't. Just the game script is immediately going to

1:10:36.040 --> 1:10:38.599
<v Speaker 1>go away from him. But get this, he's actually averaging

1:10:38.640 --> 1:10:40.880
<v Speaker 1>five yards per carry since becoming the starter. It's not

1:10:40.960 --> 1:10:43.320
<v Speaker 1>that he's been terrible, it's just the game scripts are

1:10:43.320 --> 1:10:49.000
<v Speaker 1>always dead wrong for him. And I know he's five

1:10:49.080 --> 1:10:52.080
<v Speaker 1>yards per carry since since the injury hunt. Go figure

1:10:52.479 --> 1:10:55.400

1:13:01.240 --> 1:13:04.080
<v Speaker 1>get to our premature speculations. These are guys we think

1:13:04.080 --> 1:13:06.720
<v Speaker 1>you should pick up now, one week in advance of

1:13:06.760 --> 1:13:10.719
<v Speaker 1>everybody else making the move. Scott, Yeah, I'm I'm pulling

1:13:10.720 --> 1:13:13.800
<v Speaker 1>an audible here. I'm going Royce Freeman all right, Yeah,

1:13:13.800 --> 1:13:16.400
<v Speaker 1>he's on by this week. He's been dropped in enough

1:13:16.439 --> 1:13:22.000
<v Speaker 1>leagues either owned Cincinnati, San Francisco, Cleveland, and Oakland, all

1:13:22.120 --> 1:13:25.439
<v Speaker 1>bottom nine defenses against the run for his playoff run.

1:13:25.479 --> 1:13:28.080
<v Speaker 1>There and every one of those teams allowing over a

1:13:28.160 --> 1:13:30.519
<v Speaker 1>hundred thirty plus total yards per game, three of them

1:13:30.560 --> 1:13:33.400
<v Speaker 1>five plus yards per carry. It's a good end of season. Oh,

1:13:33.400 --> 1:13:35.479
<v Speaker 1>it's great. I've tried to acquire Rice Freeman in a

1:13:35.479 --> 1:13:37.200
<v Speaker 1>few leaks. I've got Lindsay in a bunch of them,

1:13:37.240 --> 1:13:38.720
<v Speaker 1>so that's been part of it. As I want that

1:13:38.840 --> 1:13:40.879
<v Speaker 1>I could see starting both in some of these games.

1:13:41.479 --> 1:13:44.400
<v Speaker 1>I've got the oozy c j Uzoma. He's had forty

1:13:44.400 --> 1:13:46.840
<v Speaker 1>plus yards and or a touchdown in five of eight

1:13:46.840 --> 1:13:49.320
<v Speaker 1>games this year, and that a J Green injury is

1:13:49.800 --> 1:13:52.960
<v Speaker 1>lingering and looming over the since the offense Dalton through

1:13:53.040 --> 1:13:55.280
<v Speaker 1>to his tight end six times per game in that

1:13:55.360 --> 1:13:58.200
<v Speaker 1>eight game stretch where a J missed last year with

1:13:58.280 --> 1:14:01.759
<v Speaker 1>five tight end touchdowns and Cincinnati as the third easiest

1:14:01.840 --> 1:14:04.600
<v Speaker 1>remaining schedule for tight ends and the easiest schedule in

1:14:04.600 --> 1:14:07.439
<v Speaker 1>the playoffs where they faced the Chargers, Raiders, and Browns,

1:14:07.800 --> 1:14:10.640
<v Speaker 1>three teams who have allowed nine tight ends to go

1:14:10.720 --> 1:14:15.519
<v Speaker 1>over fifty yards and fourteen tight end touchdowns in six weeks.

1:14:16.960 --> 1:14:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Uh I had Lamar Jackson is my guy before this

1:14:21.120 --> 1:14:26.000
<v Speaker 1>Flacco story as proof if you go to our Waiver

1:14:26.120 --> 1:14:32.160
<v Speaker 1>Wire article, was there from tuesdaytas almost daily podcast. That's right,

1:14:33.160 --> 1:14:36.679
<v Speaker 1>that's right. We were urging people on Tuesday to pick

1:14:36.760 --> 1:14:39.320
<v Speaker 1>up Lamar Jackson because all we do is help you

1:14:39.320 --> 1:14:42.280
<v Speaker 1>work a week ahead of time. If Lamar Jackson for

1:14:42.320 --> 1:14:44.960
<v Speaker 1>some reason is still not rostered in your league, go

1:14:45.080 --> 1:14:48.439
<v Speaker 1>get Lamar Jackson. And then as a pivot to that,

1:14:48.479 --> 1:14:51.000
<v Speaker 1>since we've already taught if Jackson has been Let's go

1:14:51.000 --> 1:14:53.080
<v Speaker 1>back to Rex Burkhead, who we talked about earlier in

1:14:53.120 --> 1:14:55.639
<v Speaker 1>the show as somebody you can get now and stashed

1:14:55.720 --> 1:14:58.080
<v Speaker 1>until week number thirteen when he comes on off i

1:14:58.360 --> 1:15:02.080
<v Speaker 1>r final set of matchups be in with Cowboys taking

1:15:02.080 --> 1:15:06.679
<v Speaker 1>on the Eagles, Um Scott, we saw Marie Cooper score

1:15:06.720 --> 1:15:09.480
<v Speaker 1>in his very first game. Do you like him in Philly?

1:15:09.600 --> 1:15:13.160
<v Speaker 1>A little? That's about all you're getting, uh? In the

1:15:13.200 --> 1:15:16.040
<v Speaker 1>passing game, I'm gonna skip from boot Cooper back to

1:15:16.200 --> 1:15:18.720
<v Speaker 1>Dak where I'm just benching Doc. I don't like him

1:15:18.720 --> 1:15:21.320
<v Speaker 1>in this matchup. He's He's only top two fifty yards

1:15:21.320 --> 1:15:23.840
<v Speaker 1>twice this season, Doc has and you only have ten

1:15:23.840 --> 1:15:27.320
<v Speaker 1>passing touchdowns in eight games. That's that's not good. That's

1:15:27.320 --> 1:15:30.280
<v Speaker 1>not startable on a weekly basis. But Cooper. I did

1:15:30.320 --> 1:15:32.920
<v Speaker 1>give a B grade to Um in the last three games,

1:15:32.960 --> 1:15:35.400
<v Speaker 1>the Eagles having allowed a wide receiver over sixty five yards.

1:15:35.400 --> 1:15:38.160
<v Speaker 1>That sounds bad, but in weeks one through five, ten

1:15:38.240 --> 1:15:41.519
<v Speaker 1>different wide receivers had seventy five yards and or a touchdown.

1:15:41.920 --> 1:15:45.280
<v Speaker 1>Blame Carolina wide receivers, Jacksonville wide receivers and a terrible

1:15:45.280 --> 1:15:47.559
<v Speaker 1>Eli manning game. For how good the Eagles have looked

1:15:47.560 --> 1:15:50.600
<v Speaker 1>the last three weeks. Uh, Cooper saw eight targets, and

1:15:50.640 --> 1:15:52.200
<v Speaker 1>I think Dallas is going to be hell bent on

1:15:52.320 --> 1:15:55.040
<v Speaker 1>proving that that trade was good, like getting that that

1:15:55.160 --> 1:15:59.480
<v Speaker 1>public image narrative street there. All that first rounder was expensive.

1:15:59.720 --> 1:16:02.320
<v Speaker 1>Ye all nine wide receivers with eight or more targets

1:16:02.320 --> 1:16:04.439
<v Speaker 1>against the Eagles. Eight targets is how many Cooper had

1:16:04.520 --> 1:16:07.840
<v Speaker 1>last week, had double digit Fantasy days. So B grade.

1:16:07.840 --> 1:16:10.439
<v Speaker 1>They're benching Beasley because he saw just three targets with

1:16:10.479 --> 1:16:13.439
<v Speaker 1>Cooper and Zeke Ellion, I'm only giving a B B

1:16:13.560 --> 1:16:16.479
<v Speaker 1>grade too. He's he's just had one game over sixty

1:16:16.479 --> 1:16:20.559
<v Speaker 1>five yards rushing in the last four games. Uh, and

1:16:20.720 --> 1:16:23.280
<v Speaker 1>he he's making a little bit up on the receiving game.

1:16:23.320 --> 1:16:25.839
<v Speaker 1>He had seven catches in one game, four catches and another.

1:16:26.240 --> 1:16:28.120
<v Speaker 1>That's where he can make it up because the Eagles

1:16:28.120 --> 1:16:31.200
<v Speaker 1>are allowing just under eight grabs and eighty six yards

1:16:31.240 --> 1:16:34.559
<v Speaker 1>per game two runners over the last three games. I

1:16:34.600 --> 1:16:36.479
<v Speaker 1>think that that might be. Actually where he gets his

1:16:36.520 --> 1:16:39.960
<v Speaker 1>B grade is through the air somehow. On the other side,

1:16:40.400 --> 1:16:44.559
<v Speaker 1>Carson wentz a grade. Wentzays at least two total yards

1:16:44.560 --> 1:16:49.759
<v Speaker 1>and multiple touchdowns in five straight. The Cowboys have been stout. Yeah,

1:16:50.280 --> 1:16:53.639
<v Speaker 1>but uh and but have allowed at least one quarterback

1:16:53.680 --> 1:16:56.519
<v Speaker 1>touchdown in every game, and they're coming off a short

1:16:56.560 --> 1:16:59.000
<v Speaker 1>week where they let Mariotta score three and Wentz has

1:16:59.000 --> 1:17:02.839
<v Speaker 1>a new weapon, and hey, so B grade for alshon

1:17:02.960 --> 1:17:06.240
<v Speaker 1>Jeffrey Dallas is top three against wide receivers on the season.

1:17:06.439 --> 1:17:09.160
<v Speaker 1>But let's take a closer look on that beat up

1:17:09.200 --> 1:17:13.439
<v Speaker 1>Redskins wide receiving corps. The Titans, the Jaguars Seattle before

1:17:13.479 --> 1:17:16.439
<v Speaker 1>Wilson got hot and Baldwin was out Carolina and a

1:17:16.520 --> 1:17:19.760
<v Speaker 1>terrible ELI game like they've had just not good wide

1:17:19.800 --> 1:17:22.479
<v Speaker 1>receivers when they've played in all Sean's five games. He

1:17:22.479 --> 1:17:25.280
<v Speaker 1>has four touchdowns and his averaging just under nine targets

1:17:25.280 --> 1:17:28.639
<v Speaker 1>per games seventy plus and three of them B grade there, Yeah,

1:17:29.120 --> 1:17:32.400
<v Speaker 1>nine targets per game, Golden Tate. I'm giving a speculative

1:17:32.439 --> 1:17:34.040
<v Speaker 1>C grade, and I think I might be a little

1:17:34.080 --> 1:17:37.719
<v Speaker 1>too low on there. I think he's gonna play outside,

1:17:37.720 --> 1:17:40.599
<v Speaker 1>but now they have three three slot wide receivers. But

1:17:41.080 --> 1:17:43.640
<v Speaker 1>just his talent level makes him definitely startable for me.

1:17:43.840 --> 1:17:46.760
<v Speaker 1>Aglar goes to the bench with the Tate acquisition and

1:17:46.840 --> 1:17:49.240
<v Speaker 1>zach Ertz. I'm giving him and I'm giving him an

1:17:49.280 --> 1:17:51.800
<v Speaker 1>A grade. The Cowboys have allowed just two tight ends

1:17:51.800 --> 1:17:54.280
<v Speaker 1>over forty five yards and just two tight end touchdowns

1:17:54.280 --> 1:17:56.680
<v Speaker 1>this year, but Arts has a hundred plus and or

1:17:56.680 --> 1:17:59.320
<v Speaker 1>a touchdown in five straight. He's averaging seven and a

1:17:59.360 --> 1:18:01.639
<v Speaker 1>half catches ten at half targets per game. They can

1:18:01.680 --> 1:18:02.880
<v Speaker 1>be as good as they want. It gets tight on

1:18:03.000 --> 1:18:08.160
<v Speaker 1>some starting zach Ertz, no choice. Alright, Dolphins take out

1:18:08.200 --> 1:18:10.720
<v Speaker 1>the Packers. I would normally tell you to just sit

1:18:10.880 --> 1:18:13.559
<v Speaker 1>everybody around Brick Osweiler, which is normally the case, but

1:18:13.840 --> 1:18:17.439
<v Speaker 1>I know who you're going for here. You do, yeah, Frank.

1:18:18.320 --> 1:18:22.479
<v Speaker 1>We are going to give Frank or passing. I started

1:18:22.479 --> 1:18:25.120
<v Speaker 1>with the passing game and Osweiler is on the bench.

1:18:25.120 --> 1:18:27.360
<v Speaker 1>But I've got to see great in DeVante Parker. Only

1:18:27.400 --> 1:18:30.439
<v Speaker 1>because the Packers have allowed the second most scores to receivers,

1:18:30.439 --> 1:18:33.240
<v Speaker 1>including multi score games the Marquis go Doing and Josh

1:18:33.280 --> 1:18:36.600
<v Speaker 1>Reynolds just in the last three weeks alone. So you

1:18:36.640 --> 1:18:41.320
<v Speaker 1>know this is they're churning safeties for for for for

1:18:41.439 --> 1:18:44.200
<v Speaker 1>Green Bay. It's a secondary influx right now. I think

1:18:44.200 --> 1:18:46.280
<v Speaker 1>there's gonna be a couple of opportunities. So I've got

1:18:46.280 --> 1:18:48.960
<v Speaker 1>a starting great in DeVante Parker and then Danny Amadola.

1:18:49.000 --> 1:18:51.000
<v Speaker 1>If you just want your five catches for forty yards,

1:18:51.040 --> 1:18:53.040
<v Speaker 1>just fine. You know I can see that. And if

1:18:53.040 --> 1:18:55.280
<v Speaker 1>you need to be safe, if you're one of these people,

1:18:55.560 --> 1:18:58.280
<v Speaker 1>you're up by fifty points because the Thursday night's game

1:18:58.360 --> 1:19:00.120
<v Speaker 1>and you just want to get your five catch just

1:19:00.200 --> 1:19:03.680
<v Speaker 1>forty fifty yards, Danny Amontola is probably your guy for that.

1:19:04.280 --> 1:19:08.000
<v Speaker 1>Then let's go to the running game. Frank Gore b grade.

1:19:08.320 --> 1:19:11.240
<v Speaker 1>In his past four weeks. He's averaging over fourteen carries

1:19:11.240 --> 1:19:14.479
<v Speaker 1>per game, and of the four backs who have managed

1:19:14.479 --> 1:19:17.960
<v Speaker 1>fourteen carries per game against the Packers, the average game

1:19:19.040 --> 1:19:22.360
<v Speaker 1>ninety four rushing yards, five and a half yards per carry,

1:19:22.520 --> 1:19:26.599
<v Speaker 1>and a touchdown per game. Frank Gore be great. Kenyan

1:19:26.680 --> 1:19:29.360
<v Speaker 1>Drake's on the bench. He has been out carried by

1:19:29.400 --> 1:19:33.080
<v Speaker 1>Gore in every game since Week two. Man, if only

1:19:33.120 --> 1:19:36.719
<v Speaker 1>somebody could have seen this at the preseason, I would

1:19:36.720 --> 1:19:42.120
<v Speaker 1>like a peacock for that. Something something weird about Kenyan Drake.

1:19:42.400 --> 1:19:45.280
<v Speaker 1>He's played nine games. He has four RB one games

1:19:45.760 --> 1:19:49.720
<v Speaker 1>of nine. That's crazy. It's receiving the touchdowns. It is

1:19:49.760 --> 1:19:53.120
<v Speaker 1>receiving in touchdowns. Packers, though, give up the seventh fewest

1:19:53.200 --> 1:19:56.120
<v Speaker 1>receptions per game to opposing running backs and have only

1:19:56.120 --> 1:19:59.920
<v Speaker 1>given up one are running back touchdown through the airs.

1:20:00.400 --> 1:20:02.360
<v Speaker 1>That's where you need Drake to help you, and it

1:20:02.400 --> 1:20:04.920
<v Speaker 1>isn't coming here. So he's on the bench. Let's go

1:20:04.960 --> 1:20:07.599
<v Speaker 1>to the Packers side. A bunch of A grades across

1:20:07.600 --> 1:20:10.120
<v Speaker 1>the board, and the guy that I'm most excited about,

1:20:10.880 --> 1:20:15.280
<v Speaker 1>Aaron Jones. I've got an A grade on him. I'm

1:20:15.320 --> 1:20:18.720
<v Speaker 1>counting on my toma, babe. Can I tell you how

1:20:19.240 --> 1:20:22.240
<v Speaker 1>this is? Just do the right thing, the right counting

1:20:22.280 --> 1:20:24.760
<v Speaker 1>on Mike McCarthy to do the right he never does.

1:20:24.960 --> 1:20:27.160
<v Speaker 1>This is from Graham Barfield. These are some Next Sense

1:20:27.160 --> 1:20:29.360
<v Speaker 1>stats among running backs over the last two years with

1:20:29.400 --> 1:20:31.680
<v Speaker 1>at least a hundred five carries. Aaron Jones is first

1:20:31.720 --> 1:20:34.479
<v Speaker 1>in yards per carry, first in yards gained after defender

1:20:34.479 --> 1:20:38.160
<v Speaker 1>closes within the yard, first in rushing yard Russia attempts

1:20:38.280 --> 1:20:41.720
<v Speaker 1>Russia Russia's over ten yards, first in success rate, and

1:20:41.800 --> 1:20:44.560
<v Speaker 1>second in first down second down first down rate. It

1:20:44.600 --> 1:20:47.720
<v Speaker 1>should all come together, It should all come together. This week,

1:20:47.800 --> 1:20:50.960
<v Speaker 1>the Dolphins are giving up on twenty rushing yards per game.

1:20:51.160 --> 1:20:54.040
<v Speaker 1>It's the juiciest matchup of the season for Aaron Jones.

1:20:54.160 --> 1:20:57.680
<v Speaker 1>Insert Jamal Williams getting fifteen cars. God, I hope not.

1:20:59.439 --> 1:21:01.519
<v Speaker 1>Let's just hope the usage is going the right way now.

1:21:01.560 --> 1:21:04.800
<v Speaker 1>He had that critical fumble against the Patriots, but they

1:21:04.840 --> 1:21:06.200
<v Speaker 1>went back to him at the end of the game,

1:21:06.240 --> 1:21:08.920
<v Speaker 1>so I'm presuming he's not in the doghouse. A grade.

1:21:09.000 --> 1:21:13.160
<v Speaker 1>Aaron Jones a great. Aaron Rodgers obvious A grade. I

1:21:13.200 --> 1:21:15.719
<v Speaker 1>am worried about the running game actually cannibalizing him stats

1:21:15.760 --> 1:21:18.040
<v Speaker 1>more than I'm worried about the Dolphins, but nevertheless, even

1:21:18.080 --> 1:21:20.920
<v Speaker 1>unlimited passes, he could still be fine. Deshaun Watson scored

1:21:20.960 --> 1:21:23.479
<v Speaker 1>five times and throw the ball just twenty times against

1:21:23.479 --> 1:21:26.960
<v Speaker 1>the Dolphins last week. Davante Adams obvious A grade, although

1:21:27.000 --> 1:21:30.519
<v Speaker 1>we'll note that he's drawing shadow coverage from Xavian Howard

1:21:30.600 --> 1:21:33.360
<v Speaker 1>in this game. Howard is not allowed more than thirty

1:21:33.360 --> 1:21:35.600
<v Speaker 1>two yards in his coverage and over a month, but

1:21:35.720 --> 1:21:40.600
<v Speaker 1>still Adams totally matchup Proof A grade opposite him. Marquees

1:21:40.960 --> 1:21:45.439
<v Speaker 1>Valdez Scantling, My guy, I love I love this rookie.

1:21:45.520 --> 1:21:47.120
<v Speaker 1>He has found the end zone or hit one hundred

1:21:47.160 --> 1:21:50.599
<v Speaker 1>yards in four straight games. Only DeShawn Jackson averages more

1:21:50.720 --> 1:21:55.320
<v Speaker 1>yards per reception than Marquees Valdez scant Link does, and

1:21:55.479 --> 1:21:57.200
<v Speaker 1>Xavian Howard's gonna be on the other side of the

1:21:57.200 --> 1:22:00.799
<v Speaker 1>field guarding uh Davante Adams. It's a great matchup against

1:22:00.800 --> 1:22:05.800
<v Speaker 1>Bobby McCain, who has been roasted by speed receivers like Markuees,

1:22:06.120 --> 1:22:12.519
<v Speaker 1>Valdez Scantling this year be grade for him. Randall Cobb

1:22:12.600 --> 1:22:14.880
<v Speaker 1>downgraded midweek and a hamstring. You want to avoid him

1:22:14.920 --> 1:22:16.760
<v Speaker 1>at all costs. Hopefully you didn't draft him at all.

1:22:17.080 --> 1:22:21.200
<v Speaker 1>And the last guy I'll mention Jimmy Graham Dolphins allowing

1:22:21.479 --> 1:22:24.120
<v Speaker 1>uh wait, uh oh, I have the wrong text in here.

1:22:24.200 --> 1:22:25.600
<v Speaker 1>Jimmy Graham is an a grade you can go to.

1:22:25.880 --> 1:22:27.639
<v Speaker 1>I don't have I've got the wrong I pasted into

1:22:27.680 --> 1:22:29.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't have the right text, and I've got Aaron

1:22:29.120 --> 1:22:31.080
<v Speaker 1>Jones text in for by Jimmy Graham. He scored our

1:22:31.120 --> 1:22:33.439
<v Speaker 1>top seven seventy six yards and five of his last

1:22:33.439 --> 1:22:35.559
<v Speaker 1>seven games. I like that. Thank you very much for

1:22:35.560 --> 1:22:38.200
<v Speaker 1>the assist. You can get the full not just Jimmy Graham.

1:22:38.240 --> 1:22:39.960
<v Speaker 1>You can get the full rundown on all of these

1:22:40.000 --> 1:22:42.080

1:22:45.640 --> 1:22:47.800
<v Speaker 1>Go to my player rankings so you learn about Jimmy Graham.

1:22:47.840 --> 1:22:51.080
<v Speaker 1>Your matchup took too long because you said Marques Veldez

1:22:51.360 --> 1:22:55.160
<v Speaker 1>Scantling three times, which you could have been worked. It

1:22:55.200 --> 1:22:58.240
<v Speaker 1>could have been nine. Last matchup is Giants at forty nine.

1:22:58.400 --> 1:23:00.000
<v Speaker 1>At least we don't have to talk about too many

1:23:00.040 --> 1:23:03.280
<v Speaker 1>Giants or forty Niners now Quans and A. He's on

1:23:03.360 --> 1:23:06.120
<v Speaker 1>pace to break the single season running back reception record

1:23:06.160 --> 1:23:08.760
<v Speaker 1>held by Matt Forte uh He's on pace for one

1:23:08.800 --> 1:23:11.040
<v Speaker 1>sixteen fourte had one O two and the Niners or

1:23:11.040 --> 1:23:14.360
<v Speaker 1>bottom ten and receptions and receiving touchdowns allowed to running

1:23:14.400 --> 1:23:17.120
<v Speaker 1>back Odell Beckham's in A. Niners have allowed to touch

1:23:17.160 --> 1:23:20.080
<v Speaker 1>down to seven of our wide receiver in seven of

1:23:20.080 --> 1:23:23.240
<v Speaker 1>their last nine games. Sterling Shepherds even a B slot

1:23:23.240 --> 1:23:29.560
<v Speaker 1>wide receivers have torched the Niners Tate mvs. Marquees, Valdez, Scantling,

1:23:30.120 --> 1:23:32.479
<v Speaker 1>Fitzgerald and theeling of all top two hundred yards against

1:23:32.479 --> 1:23:35.120
<v Speaker 1>San Francisco from the slot. Evan Ingram is getting a

1:23:35.120 --> 1:23:37.120
<v Speaker 1>bench grade, though he's been held to twenty five yards

1:23:37.200 --> 1:23:39.200
<v Speaker 1>or less than four or five games this season is

1:23:39.240 --> 1:23:41.559
<v Speaker 1>only two scores have come in garbage time. And I'm

1:23:41.600 --> 1:23:43.960
<v Speaker 1>giving Eli a C though because if not now, when,

1:23:44.000 --> 1:23:48.080
<v Speaker 1>and I liked Sae Kwan Odell and Shepherd as receiving options.

1:23:48.120 --> 1:23:51.840
<v Speaker 1>So on the other side, Matt Brita's getting a B grade.

1:23:51.880 --> 1:23:55.080
<v Speaker 1>The Giants have no snacks, and since there's no snacks

1:23:55.080 --> 1:23:57.800
<v Speaker 1>for the Giants, the arts per carry average have gone

1:23:57.840 --> 1:24:01.360
<v Speaker 1>from four point oh to oppose backs to four point

1:24:01.439 --> 1:24:03.760
<v Speaker 1>nine yards per carry and they're allowing a hundred and

1:24:03.840 --> 1:24:07.040
<v Speaker 1>fourteen rushing yards per games since snacks Harrison left and

1:24:07.160 --> 1:24:09.519
<v Speaker 1>Raheem Mostert now has a third elbow, So Matt Breed

1:24:09.560 --> 1:24:13.639
<v Speaker 1>has got this job all by himself. Nick mullins, he's

1:24:13.680 --> 1:24:16.360
<v Speaker 1>on the bench. I'm not chasing that scorecard from last week.

1:24:16.400 --> 1:24:18.719
<v Speaker 1>The Giants have only allowed two hundred fifty two yards

1:24:18.760 --> 1:24:21.519
<v Speaker 1>per game through the air this year. That's eleventh best

1:24:21.560 --> 1:24:23.479
<v Speaker 1>in the NFL, and the Niners shouldn't need to pass

1:24:23.520 --> 1:24:26.280
<v Speaker 1>to beat the Giants. I am giving George Kittle a

1:24:26.360 --> 1:24:29.040
<v Speaker 1>B though Kittle is top seventy nine yards in six

1:24:29.080 --> 1:24:32.800
<v Speaker 1>games this season. The Giants did hold zech ERT's under fifty,

1:24:32.840 --> 1:24:35.360
<v Speaker 1>but he had seven catches forty three yards in a score.

1:24:35.640 --> 1:24:37.840
<v Speaker 1>I think Kittle's almost on par with Earth's right now,

1:24:37.840 --> 1:24:41.000
<v Speaker 1>so he gets a B grade. Marquis Goodwin and Pierre Garson,

1:24:41.080 --> 1:24:43.160
<v Speaker 1>though they are on the bench. Garson only had five

1:24:43.200 --> 1:24:46.439
<v Speaker 1>targets in Mullins debut. Goodwin had four, and they shouldn't

1:24:46.439 --> 1:24:49.479
<v Speaker 1>need to pass to beat the Giants. That's it, all right.

1:24:49.840 --> 1:24:54.560
<v Speaker 1>I'll note to our local listening audience of presumably Timberwolves

1:24:54.560 --> 1:24:59.920
<v Speaker 1>fans um multiple reports, including from John Krasinski, saying Philadelph

1:25:00.160 --> 1:25:04.040
<v Speaker 1>uh is finalizing a deal with Minnesota to wire Jimmy

1:25:04.080 --> 1:25:07.880
<v Speaker 1>Butler so that the hostage situation may be coming to

1:25:07.920 --> 1:25:13.280
<v Speaker 1>an end. Casualties US fans, You mean we're not getting

1:25:13.360 --> 1:25:17.200
<v Speaker 1>Joel Embiide or Ben Simmons in return? No, apparently apparently

1:25:17.200 --> 1:25:22.960
<v Speaker 1>we are not. Uh, it's time for lightning round. You

1:25:22.960 --> 1:25:27.839
<v Speaker 1>know the rules. One question between two players, one question

1:25:27.960 --> 1:25:30.600
<v Speaker 1>between two players. That is uh, that is all you

1:25:30.600 --> 1:25:37.600
<v Speaker 1>can do. Hold on a set, Um, Let's go to

1:25:37.640 --> 1:25:40.160
<v Speaker 1>the calls, beginning with and thank you for your patients,

1:25:40.200 --> 1:25:41.720
<v Speaker 1>all of you. I know you've all been on hold

1:25:41.720 --> 1:25:46.240
<v Speaker 1>for over an hour. Andrew, Hello, Hello Standard League Calvin

1:25:46.320 --> 1:25:51.320
<v Speaker 1>Ridley or Jarvis Plandy. Oh wow, I really like Ridley

1:25:51.360 --> 1:25:54.280
<v Speaker 1>this week, but standard mix Stan probably favors Readley, So

1:25:54.400 --> 1:26:00.599
<v Speaker 1>Ridley next. Uh, Phil, you're next? Hey, guys, thanks much.

1:26:00.720 --> 1:26:03.920
<v Speaker 1>Um would you go Breeze or Rivers? Rivers? I would

1:26:03.920 --> 1:26:06.639
<v Speaker 1>go Rivers this week. Rivers is my number one quarter.

1:26:06.680 --> 1:26:08.679
<v Speaker 1>I'm a little worried about Breeze in the outdoor game.

1:26:08.840 --> 1:26:13.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah for sure, Carl. Your next standard League Jordan Howard

1:26:13.520 --> 1:26:18.240
<v Speaker 1>or Tony Michelle? All right, Uh, I think Michelle's gonna

1:26:18.280 --> 1:26:21.400
<v Speaker 1>play you get to at least. Yeah, he's the early

1:26:21.520 --> 1:26:25.320
<v Speaker 1>game active. Michelle's going, yeah, you gotta you have to

1:26:25.320 --> 1:26:27.439
<v Speaker 1>play him. But I like to. Actually I like Jordan

1:26:27.439 --> 1:26:30.559
<v Speaker 1>Howard in his batchroom as well. That's a different story. Tom,

1:26:30.600 --> 1:26:34.200
<v Speaker 1>You're next. Yeah, Doleman and I have an opponent wide

1:26:34.200 --> 1:26:37.840
<v Speaker 1>for Fever. I'm wondering if I'm putting too many ears

1:26:37.880 --> 1:26:41.040
<v Speaker 1>on its baptis because I'm playing David Johnson. Do I

1:26:41.160 --> 1:26:44.519
<v Speaker 1>play Fitzgerald? Where do I go with Fits and the

1:26:44.640 --> 1:26:47.040
<v Speaker 1>Upside in New Orleans? Thank you for your show. I

1:26:47.160 --> 1:26:49.080
<v Speaker 1>listened every week. Thank you. Tom Howe. You one of

1:26:49.160 --> 1:26:53.320
<v Speaker 1>those teams down by fifty because it's uh Fits is far,

1:26:53.479 --> 1:26:56.439
<v Speaker 1>far safer. But I really do like Trackwon Smith here. Um,

1:26:57.000 --> 1:27:01.719
<v Speaker 1>it's really a floor, a safe versus upside. He's got Fits,

1:27:01.760 --> 1:27:04.200
<v Speaker 1>his draws, the best coverage corner they've got Kendall Fuller,

1:27:04.320 --> 1:27:07.080
<v Speaker 1>and I think all right, I would go. I'm safely

1:27:07.160 --> 1:27:10.760
<v Speaker 1>on the tray quand side of this. Stacy, Hello, good

1:27:10.800 --> 1:27:18.759
<v Speaker 1>morning or Ram defense. We're talking defenses. Uh, let's go Patriots?

1:27:18.920 --> 1:27:24.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah for this matchup? Yeah? Absolutely, thank you, Yeah, thank you. Chuck.

1:27:25.360 --> 1:27:27.880
<v Speaker 1>I think I got Chuck Chuck him so oh, I'm sorry.

1:27:27.920 --> 1:27:29.240
<v Speaker 1>I just hung up on Chuck and I think he

1:27:29.280 --> 1:27:31.439
<v Speaker 1>might have been holding for like an hour. That's a

1:27:31.760 --> 1:27:35.920
<v Speaker 1>hung Sorry, Chuck up, Chuck, that top, Chuck. Sorry, Chuck. Nick,

1:27:36.000 --> 1:27:43.519
<v Speaker 1>you're next half point pprred Nick, I can't hear you, Nick.

1:27:43.920 --> 1:27:46.479
<v Speaker 1>Are you talking to the speaker? Oh yeah, did you

1:27:46.560 --> 1:27:51.320
<v Speaker 1>hear me? Now? A little bit? Allen? For whom half

1:27:51.360 --> 1:27:55.160
<v Speaker 1>point PPR? We want the keenan Allen's. I would still

1:27:55.200 --> 1:28:00.840
<v Speaker 1>take Allen's close. Absolutely. Uh. John in Boston, Hello, Hey guys,

1:28:00.840 --> 1:28:03.799
<v Speaker 1>how you doing on at half point PPR? Um Sony

1:28:03.880 --> 1:28:08.920
<v Speaker 1>Michelle or Mike David. If Chris Carson does not go,

1:28:09.520 --> 1:28:12.320
<v Speaker 1>it's Mike Davis. Unfortunately, we don't get to see that

1:28:12.439 --> 1:28:15.599
<v Speaker 1>decision till the later games, so you're gonna see Sony

1:28:15.640 --> 1:28:19.240
<v Speaker 1>if he's if he's active, I'd go Sony. I think

1:28:19.280 --> 1:28:21.200
<v Speaker 1>that's what you have to do, just because you're not

1:28:21.360 --> 1:28:23.920
<v Speaker 1>probably not gonna have a definitive word on Chris Carson

1:28:24.040 --> 1:28:27.719
<v Speaker 1>as a like absolutely unfortunately plan on Sony. Thanks Shahn,

1:28:29.560 --> 1:28:35.920
<v Speaker 1>Greg Hello, Hello, Hi, got standard league flex position question?

1:28:36.200 --> 1:28:40.360
<v Speaker 1>Edo Smith or Ljohn McCoy Smith. I don't even think

1:28:40.400 --> 1:28:46.280
<v Speaker 1>it's close for me. We don't start any bills. That's it. Uh,

1:29:08.600 --> 1:29:11.040

1:29:11.080 --> 1:29:17.040
<v Speaker 1>lock it Aaron, You're next. Hey, guys, think you're the call?

1:29:25.960 --> 1:29:29.400
