WEBVTT - HR2: Risers 0:00:04.160 --> 0:00:04.600 At least. 0:00:04.720 --> 0:00:08.200 He's the Drive with Dale Lolly and Matt Williamson on 0:00:08.240 --> 0:00:10.400 your twenty four to seven home of the Black and 0:00:10.440 --> 0:00:15.000 Gold Steelers Nation Radio. 0:00:15.840 --> 0:00:18.800 And we are back. I am Dale Lollly, he is 0:00:19.120 --> 0:00:21.919 the Matt Williamson and this is kicking off our number 0:00:21.960 --> 0:00:25.440 two of the Drive here on Steelers Nation Radio. And 0:00:25.520 --> 0:00:27.320 as we do the kick off our number two, it's 0:00:27.360 --> 0:00:29.560 time to take a look at the Fantasy Football Focus 0:00:29.680 --> 0:00:31.960 and we'll take a look at this week's top performers. 0:00:32.680 --> 0:00:36.200 And Matt only one three hundred yard passers. 0:00:36.240 --> 0:00:38.000 Hey, it was the week of the running back. Yeah, 0:00:38.200 --> 0:00:39.160 big running back week. 0:00:39.400 --> 0:00:42.080 Josh Allen twenty one to thirty three for three hundred 0:00:42.120 --> 0:00:44.560 and twenty three yards, two touchdowns in that game against 0:00:44.560 --> 0:00:47.360 the Tennessee Titans. They were down for a long rust 0:00:47.400 --> 0:00:50.480 of that game right and came back in one. Jared 0:00:50.479 --> 0:00:53.360 Goff had two eighty and two touchdowns. Played really well. 0:00:53.760 --> 0:00:58.040 Drake May two seventy six and two touchdowns. He makes 0:00:58.040 --> 0:01:00.360 some throws, but he doesn't pass the eye test to me. Oh, 0:01:00.440 --> 0:01:03.080 I love him. I will disagree on that one. He 0:01:03.200 --> 0:01:06.240 is nothing around him. I understand that, but he just 0:01:06.240 --> 0:01:08.080 still makes some throws. I'm like, where was he trying 0:01:08.080 --> 0:01:08.480 to go with that? 0:01:08.600 --> 0:01:11.160 Oh, there's some of those, for sure, But for fantasy, 0:01:11.160 --> 0:01:13.160 I think he's a great asset for fantasy. I have 0:01:13.240 --> 0:01:14.840 no problem to build a team around him. 0:01:14.880 --> 0:01:17.600 I like him a lot. Aaron Rodgers two seventy six 0:01:17.600 --> 0:01:20.440 to one touchdown, two interceptions. He did not play well. No, 0:01:20.480 --> 0:01:24.399 I didn't think so either. Hey, the six passes that 0:01:24.440 --> 0:01:29.800 he threw to Brice Hall traveled about a total of 0:01:29.840 --> 0:01:33.399 fifteen yards, and Breese Hall did everything. Yes. Side of that, 0:01:33.640 --> 0:01:34.759 there was there were no. 0:01:35.080 --> 0:01:37.559 He missed something, he missed it, some ones he usually 0:01:37.600 --> 0:01:41.039 doesn't miss. And there weren't many wow throws. He usually 0:01:41.040 --> 0:01:43.000 has a couple of wild throws. I didn't see hardly. 0:01:42.760 --> 0:01:45.120 Any of those. Yeah, I didn't see that. Russell Wilson 0:01:45.120 --> 0:01:48.480 actually fifth two sixty four and two touchdowns, just ahead 0:01:48.480 --> 0:01:52.240 of Sam Darnold, Kirk Cousins. Some of these guys didn't 0:01:52.240 --> 0:01:54.520 play well. Jordan Love did it again, only two hundred 0:01:54.520 --> 0:01:56.360 and twenty yards, but three more touchdown passes. 0:01:56.400 --> 0:01:57.960 He throws the ball the end zone, and he's got 0:01:57.960 --> 0:01:59.960 good receivers and he's a heck of talent. 0:02:00.280 --> 0:02:02.720 In fact, those three touchdown passes were the high for 0:02:02.800 --> 0:02:07.840 the week. Nobody else had more than two. So it 0:02:07.960 --> 0:02:10.520 wasn't a big passing weekend in the NFL. 0:02:10.840 --> 0:02:12.320 And it wasn't like there's a ton of weather or. 0:02:12.240 --> 0:02:16.520 Anything like that. You mentioned the running backs, but there 0:02:16.520 --> 0:02:20.360 were only six that had one hundred yard game. That 0:02:20.520 --> 0:02:25.200 was Saquon Barkley won seventy six an a touchdown, Tank 0:02:25.240 --> 0:02:29.920 Bigsby won eighteen and two scores, Jamiir Gibbs fifteen for 0:02:30.000 --> 0:02:33.079 one sixteen and two scores. It was the big day 0:02:33.080 --> 0:02:35.079 for running backs getting a couple of touchdowns. There's a 0:02:35.120 --> 0:02:35.600 bunch of those. 0:02:35.600 --> 0:02:37.280 I said, there's a lot of fantasy points. Maybe there 0:02:37.320 --> 0:02:38.680 was a running back yardage. 0:02:39.000 --> 0:02:42.040 Joe Mixon twenty five for one to fifteen and two touchdowns, 0:02:42.639 --> 0:02:46.080 Bjeon Robinson twenty one for one oh three in a touchdown, 0:02:46.880 --> 0:02:49.880 Nagie Harris twenty one for one oh two and the touchdown. 0:02:50.680 --> 0:02:55.040 Those guys that scored multiple touchdowns were Javonte Williams had two. 0:02:55.200 --> 0:02:57.400 Oh yeah, Kareem Hunt had to he only haver his 0:02:57.440 --> 0:02:59.399 three point five yards to carry the Yeah, it wasn't 0:02:59.440 --> 0:03:04.239 easy going. Uh you also had Kien Williams with two. 0:03:04.960 --> 0:03:07.240 Okay, so yeah, but I mean there were a lot 0:03:07.280 --> 0:03:10.520 of the higher drafted guys and people you invested in, 0:03:10.639 --> 0:03:12.919 and you know it was not It was a good 0:03:12.960 --> 0:03:14.440 running back week for fantasy for sure. 0:03:14.600 --> 0:03:17.520 Yeah. Looking at the receivers, well, if there weren't a 0:03:17.560 --> 0:03:20.480 lot of one hundred yard or three hundred yard passers, 0:03:20.520 --> 0:03:22.880 there probably weren't a lot of one hundred yard receivers. 0:03:22.919 --> 0:03:26.679 And there were only four twenty four. Keyon Coleman four 0:03:26.760 --> 0:03:29.200 for one twenty five. Nobody saw that one come out. 0:03:29.680 --> 0:03:33.080 Absolutely Cooper played, but not every snap. He scored a 0:03:33.120 --> 0:03:33.720 touchdown too. 0:03:33.840 --> 0:03:35.640 They threw it to him when he was out there too. Yeah, Yeah, 0:03:35.640 --> 0:03:37.120 I mean he's gonna be fine. 0:03:37.520 --> 0:03:39.840 Aman Ross Saint Brown eight for one to twelve in 0:03:39.880 --> 0:03:42.880 a touchdown. He's back to be in this star, you know, 0:03:43.760 --> 0:03:47.600 George George Pickens five for one eleven in a touchdown. 0:03:47.800 --> 0:03:51.240 And this is what Wilson does for the Steelers offense. 0:03:51.280 --> 0:03:53.360 This unlocks pickings. This is what I expect to see, 0:03:53.360 --> 0:03:55.880 maybe not five for one eleven and a touchdown every week. 0:03:56.560 --> 0:03:59.440 I think five's the floor. Five's the floor. And if 0:03:59.480 --> 0:04:02.600 he catches passes, I mean he's averaging fifteen yards of catch. Yeah, 0:04:02.840 --> 0:04:05.680 so do the math. Five for seventy five might be 0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:06.680 your floor moving forward. 0:04:06.680 --> 0:04:09.840 I mean, fantasy owners should be happy about the quarterback. 0:04:09.480 --> 0:04:14.320 Chaine, absolutely, and immediately it's like he got to uh 0:04:14.640 --> 0:04:17.320 end zone touchdown. They're throwing the ball in the end 0:04:17.440 --> 0:04:19.080 to them, at least at least two that I can 0:04:19.160 --> 0:04:21.880 remember that were targeting. It might have been three targets 0:04:21.920 --> 0:04:24.960 in the end number in this game. And that's what 0:04:25.000 --> 0:04:26.400 you want to see when you give that guy a 0:04:26.480 --> 0:04:28.760 chance to catch the ball in the end zone. 0:04:28.839 --> 0:04:30.520 Yeah, they were perfect in the red zone. You know, 0:04:30.520 --> 0:04:32.680 they're throwing the ball over the stripe. I mean, I 0:04:32.680 --> 0:04:34.520 think that's things you get time to get used to. 0:04:35.080 --> 0:04:37.479 Brice Hall was the other one, six for one oh three, 0:04:37.560 --> 0:04:40.240 so two of the one hundred receivers in the same game. 0:04:40.960 --> 0:04:42.800 A lot of it in one play on him. Yeah, 0:04:42.920 --> 0:04:45.360 he's back for fantasy too. They're they're featuring him a lot. 0:04:45.440 --> 0:04:48.840 Yeah. DK Metcalf just missed four for ninety nine and 0:04:48.880 --> 0:04:52.440 the touchdown. Get the knee banged up, It's not it's 0:04:52.480 --> 0:04:54.920 nothing long term. Okay, Yeah, we'll see if he's back 0:04:54.960 --> 0:04:57.800 this week. But I think that was more getting a 0:04:57.880 --> 0:05:02.080 contusion more than anything else. Terry McLaurin six for ninety eight, 0:05:02.160 --> 0:05:05.880 didn't score, but six for ninety eight you like from Mariota. Yeah, 0:05:06.720 --> 0:05:10.560 your guy John Smith seven for ninety six and a touchdown. 0:05:10.720 --> 0:05:12.000 I thought about him a little yesterday. 0:05:12.040 --> 0:05:14.680 I'm not running to the waiver wire form or anything, 0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:19.080 but two is practicing and sounds like that offense has 0:05:19.080 --> 0:05:20.080 a chance to get better. 0:05:20.640 --> 0:05:23.760 It can't be much worse, really bad. Yeah yeah. Romeo 0:05:23.920 --> 0:05:27.599 Dobbs eight for ninety four didn't score, But those Packer 0:05:27.680 --> 0:05:30.080 receivers are tough. Man, who's it going to be each 0:05:30.160 --> 0:05:34.080 each week? Brock Bowers ten for ninety three didn't score, 0:05:34.440 --> 0:05:36.800 but he's now the NFL's leading receptions. 0:05:37.520 --> 0:05:39.279 One of the games I watched the least of, but 0:05:39.320 --> 0:05:41.360 I'm sure they're throwing it to him like they always 0:05:41.360 --> 0:05:43.520 do at the line of scrimmage, you know, a couple 0:05:43.480 --> 0:05:44.040 of yards down. 0:05:44.160 --> 0:05:46.520 He's been extremely efficient. I think I was looking. He 0:05:46.560 --> 0:05:48.480 has targets are all the matter. He has like forty 0:05:48.480 --> 0:05:52.039 seven catches on like fifty five targets. That sounds yeah. 0:05:52.080 --> 0:05:53.800 I bet it's a real low average up the target 0:05:53.839 --> 0:05:56.640 still and they're getting it to him a lot. 0:05:56.520 --> 0:05:59.720 But he's averaging ten yards of catch. Yeah. Good. After 0:05:59.760 --> 0:06:02.760 the CA Yeah, it's all they got Hunter Henry eight 0:06:02.800 --> 0:06:05.480 for ninety two. You believe it in that? 0:06:05.720 --> 0:06:08.320 Yeah, I am. I don't throw the ball a lot. 0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:10.400 He's been pretty solid the last year or so. 0:06:11.200 --> 0:06:14.520 George Kittle six for ninety two. Kansas City's kind of 0:06:14.560 --> 0:06:17.039 been a tight end funnel a little bit. They've they've 0:06:17.040 --> 0:06:20.160 struggled against tight ends, but the one thing that they 0:06:20.160 --> 0:06:22.640 have struggled against defensively out for the year. 0:06:22.839 --> 0:06:26.479 Yeah, Deebo was sick in this game and he looked 0:06:26.560 --> 0:06:28.760 terrible by the way. Yeah, I don't want what he has, 0:06:29.880 --> 0:06:32.960 but I think I've being out helps Kittle for sure. Yeah, 0:06:33.000 --> 0:06:34.760 I think he's top three or four rest of the 0:06:34.800 --> 0:06:35.400 way tight. 0:06:35.279 --> 0:06:39.960 End well, and you're gonna also see Juwan Jennings. Oh yeah, 0:06:40.120 --> 0:06:42.200 if you if you picked him up a few weeks 0:06:42.200 --> 0:06:44.560 ago when he had the big monster game that nobody 0:06:44.600 --> 0:06:46.840 expected and you held on to him, a lot of 0:06:46.839 --> 0:06:49.800 people probably cut him since that. Yeah, right, Like, if 0:06:49.800 --> 0:06:51.599 that's the case, he'll be the number one waiver wire 0:06:51.640 --> 0:06:52.560 pick up this week. 0:06:52.360 --> 0:06:54.400 I would think. And do you have any interest in Pierceall? 0:06:55.279 --> 0:06:57.680 Not really, I just because I like the player coming out. 0:06:57.880 --> 0:06:59.359 I'd have to see a game or two. 0:06:59.320 --> 0:07:01.680 I mean, you have one for six yards. I don't 0:07:01.680 --> 0:07:04.320 even know what's It's almost like the Roman Wilson argument, 0:07:04.360 --> 0:07:06.080 like you're trying to get on a moving train. Yeah, 0:07:06.160 --> 0:07:08.880 like it's that's tough. It's real tough. Now, he may 0:07:08.920 --> 0:07:12.280 have more opportunities because of the injuries, but he was 0:07:12.320 --> 0:07:14.440 also a first round pick and Roman Wilson was a third. 0:07:14.520 --> 0:07:16.320 Yeah, that's just he always had a couple of receiver 0:07:16.360 --> 0:07:17.720 injuries ahead of Roman, he'd. 0:07:18.160 --> 0:07:20.680 He'd have opportunity. Yeah. A J. Brown five for eighty 0:07:20.800 --> 0:07:25.480 nine in a score, he's legit. Yeah, Brian Thomas five 0:07:25.520 --> 0:07:28.600 for eighty nine in a score. Star T. Higgins four 0:07:28.680 --> 0:07:31.840 for eighty two in a score. He's at quietly have 0:07:31.880 --> 0:07:32.920 a pretty good year. Yeah. 0:07:33.000 --> 0:07:36.720 Yeah, last year was a lot of injuries. This year, 0:07:36.720 --> 0:07:38.640 I think he's T Higgins. 0:07:38.320 --> 0:07:41.000 Which is a really good player, and teams are really 0:07:41.040 --> 0:07:44.520 working hard to take Chase out of the game and 0:07:44.720 --> 0:07:48.120 make make Higgins beat them, and okay, we. 0:07:48.120 --> 0:07:50.960 Know how this league works. I mean, and then Higgins 0:07:51.000 --> 0:07:52.720 will have a slow day and Chase will blow up, 0:07:52.720 --> 0:07:54.880 and they when they start balancing things out or you know, 0:07:54.960 --> 0:07:57.160 they're hard to play against the passing game. 0:07:57.680 --> 0:08:00.320 Cedric Tillman and Cleveland had eight for eighty one. 0:08:01.920 --> 0:08:05.320 I liked him coming out of school. Cooper's gone. He 0:08:05.360 --> 0:08:08.680 plays the same position as Jerry. Judy was an afterthought. 0:08:08.160 --> 0:08:11.360 And there doesn't count anymore. I mean, somebody has to 0:08:11.360 --> 0:08:12.960 tell might be the guy. Yeah. 0:08:13.000 --> 0:08:16.120 I think it's good for Najoku, who's been pretty consistent. 0:08:16.200 --> 0:08:19.640 I think it's good for Tillman. Might be early to 0:08:19.680 --> 0:08:22.679 pick him up now. I assume Jamis is the starter 0:08:22.760 --> 0:08:23.160 from here on. 0:08:23.520 --> 0:08:25.920 I think you pick him up now, and you know, 0:08:26.720 --> 0:08:28.760 of all the game. Yeah, you don't want to You 0:08:28.760 --> 0:08:29.840 don't want to wait too long. 0:08:32.080 --> 0:08:35.280 Nothing as a rookie, nothing until really yesterday. But I 0:08:35.400 --> 0:08:37.440 like the player coming out justin. 0:08:37.520 --> 0:08:40.200 Jefferson had seven for eighty one in the touchdown you 0:08:40.240 --> 0:08:42.440 mentioned in Djoku. He had ten for seventy six in 0:08:42.480 --> 0:08:45.760 a touchdown. Okay, another volume guy. Yeah, long game of 0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:48.440 fifteen yards, so it was a lot of yeah power 0:08:49.000 --> 0:08:54.240 catch Yeah. Uh. Jalen Naylor from Minnesota for for seventy six. 0:08:54.280 --> 0:08:57.120 He's not going away? Is Addison out? No? I didn't 0:08:57.160 --> 0:09:00.240 think so. I mean, yeah, okay, that was kind of 0:09:00.280 --> 0:09:03.240 a shootout type game. Yeah, he's number three. I don't 0:09:03.280 --> 0:09:07.840 love Addison Amari Cooper four for sixty six in the score. 0:09:08.200 --> 0:09:10.520 You'll take that for him being like fifty percent snapcount. 0:09:10.520 --> 0:09:15.400 Guy Noah Gray in Kansas City four for sixty six, 0:09:16.800 --> 0:09:22.760 out caught Kelsey. I wonder if he took over the 0:09:22.840 --> 0:09:26.320 juju stuff, maybe because yeah, Juju's I got a hair from. 0:09:26.400 --> 0:09:29.000 He's going to be out again this week. Yeah, they've 0:09:29.040 --> 0:09:29.679 already said that. 0:09:29.920 --> 0:09:32.000 Yeah, I mean, I wonder how that went. I need 0:09:32.000 --> 0:09:36.160 to dig more into how that affected the pecking order. 0:09:36.640 --> 0:09:40.360 But it's interesting for sure. They play a lot of 0:09:40.360 --> 0:09:43.280 two and three tight end sets. Yeah, Jordan Addison had 0:09:43.320 --> 0:09:45.600 three for sixty six, so it's not like he didn't 0:09:45.600 --> 0:09:49.440 do anything in that game. Kyle Pitts that game, Kyle 0:09:49.520 --> 0:09:51.600 Pitts had seven for sixty five. I think in the 0:09:51.640 --> 0:09:53.560 last three games he has seventeen catches. 0:09:53.960 --> 0:09:57.280 Yeah he is he back being a top twelve Yeah yeah, 0:09:57.280 --> 0:09:58.679 oh yeah, yeah, I think so. 0:09:58.880 --> 0:10:01.839 I mean, because what you want consistency like that's always 0:10:01.840 --> 0:10:04.560 been an issue of the top ten tight ends this 0:10:04.640 --> 0:10:06.360 week and we just get on through this list and 0:10:06.360 --> 0:10:08.000 there's a bunch of guys, a bunch of tight ends 0:10:08.040 --> 0:10:11.240 on the list here. But in terms of scoring, this week. 0:10:13.080 --> 0:10:16.160 What's his face from the from Conklin ended up as 0:10:16.200 --> 0:10:18.920 a top ten point producer this week in Fantasy Football. 0:10:20.120 --> 0:10:23.280 Four catches for seven yards and a touchdown for seven yards. 0:10:24.559 --> 0:10:27.600 Four catches for seven yards in a touchdowns got you 0:10:27.720 --> 0:10:31.440 into the top ten tight end finish. Kelsey was not. 0:10:31.840 --> 0:10:34.680 Kelsey was not. We'll see about Andrews and some of 0:10:34.720 --> 0:10:38.200 these other guys tonight, but yeah, you know McBride's playing. 0:10:38.840 --> 0:10:40.640 I'm trying to think there's some good ones tonight. I 0:10:40.679 --> 0:10:46.199 mean McBride to be rival my top ones going forward. 0:10:46.400 --> 0:10:48.480 Bowers is definitely on the top of the list. I 0:10:48.480 --> 0:10:51.800 think Kelsey still is. Here's the guys you really want 0:10:51.840 --> 0:10:54.440 that are top five type dudes, and they're still gonna 0:10:54.440 --> 0:10:54.960 have down weeks. 0:10:55.040 --> 0:10:59.480 It's bleak is bleakh Khalioshakira had seven for sixty five. 0:11:00.160 --> 0:11:03.000 Okay, so he was He's just a good player. I 0:11:03.040 --> 0:11:04.360 don't think he's real change. 0:11:04.400 --> 0:11:05.840 He's kind of I mean he's a slot. 0:11:06.000 --> 0:11:08.880 Yeah, he's a slot and they trust him. He can 0:11:08.880 --> 0:11:12.280 beat man coverage to Cooper's there to elevate him and yeah, 0:11:12.600 --> 0:11:13.600 take some pressure. 0:11:13.280 --> 0:11:15.600 Off and make their passing game again. Much like with 0:11:15.679 --> 0:11:18.839 the Steelers with Russell Wilson. They went out, The Bills 0:11:18.840 --> 0:11:21.480 went out and acquired Amurray Cooper because their guys weren't 0:11:21.520 --> 0:11:24.680 getting open no and so, and they had to unlock. 0:11:25.000 --> 0:11:27.200 They had to unlock the passing game a little bit. 0:11:27.120 --> 0:11:30.760 And it Allen was the only three interpasser and they 0:11:30.760 --> 0:11:33.360 didn't have to rely on the pass entirely. I think 0:11:33.360 --> 0:11:34.920 their offense is not one of the best in the league. 0:11:35.080 --> 0:11:38.480 Yeah, uh Noah Fant had four for sixty five. 0:11:39.120 --> 0:11:41.400 Gino was on fire in this game. Yeah, they played. 0:11:41.520 --> 0:11:43.360 He's been good all year, but he was really really 0:11:43.360 --> 0:11:46.760 good in this game. Drake London six for sixty three. 0:11:46.960 --> 0:11:50.319 That's kind of like his normal and a touchdown on anything. Right, 0:11:50.360 --> 0:11:52.920 He's solid. He's been really good. Uh. Pittman three for 0:11:53.000 --> 0:11:55.640 sixty three. I know. 0:11:56.720 --> 0:11:59.320 I think Downs had one catch for nine yards too. 0:11:59.440 --> 0:12:02.760 I mean, like the good receivers are, can't give them football. 0:12:03.200 --> 0:12:07.920 How about this one, Matt Jatavian Sanders six for sixty one. 0:12:08.840 --> 0:12:09.840 You believe it in that one. 0:12:10.000 --> 0:12:12.000 I mean, if you're the if you try to think 0:12:12.120 --> 0:12:14.360 like the Panthers think, you got to play him, the 0:12:14.360 --> 0:12:16.160 rest of you get to play him. I mean Bryce 0:12:16.200 --> 0:12:17.800 Young came at the end of the game. Might we 0:12:17.840 --> 0:12:19.840 see more of him? That would be terrible. But I'm 0:12:19.880 --> 0:12:22.800 just saying, like, I'm probably gonna play Brooks a little 0:12:22.840 --> 0:12:25.440 bit when he comes back, Like you gotta play young 0:12:25.440 --> 0:12:27.240 guys across the board on that team. 0:12:27.320 --> 0:12:29.880 Absolutely, I think I'm with you one hundred percent on that, 0:12:29.920 --> 0:12:32.200 because where are you going this year or nowhere? And 0:12:32.360 --> 0:12:34.440 you got to find out about Bryce Young. You've given 0:12:34.520 --> 0:12:36.960 Andy Dalton a shot, all right, It gave you a 0:12:37.000 --> 0:12:40.040 shot in the arm offensively for a few weeks professional outing. 0:12:40.120 --> 0:12:42.839 You know, you allowed Young to sit and watch and Okay, 0:12:42.880 --> 0:12:44.720 now you've had a month of him sitting and watching. 0:12:44.800 --> 0:12:46.600 Did he learn anything? Did you learn anything? 0:12:46.640 --> 0:12:49.280 And the offense now has a little bit more confidence 0:12:49.320 --> 0:12:50.600 and they have a little bit of a running game 0:12:50.640 --> 0:12:51.200 and all those. 0:12:51.040 --> 0:12:53.520 Good Hey, look, if you throw the ball to Deontay Johnson, 0:12:54.480 --> 0:12:56.720 some good things might happen. You know, I think they 0:12:56.760 --> 0:12:59.320 lost forty to seven yesterday, though they did lose forty 0:12:59.360 --> 0:13:00.920 to seven yesterday that they did. 0:13:01.080 --> 0:13:03.360 Quick fantasy note you know in our league, like if 0:13:03.400 --> 0:13:07.080 you told me yesterday Washington wins this game forty to seven, 0:13:07.480 --> 0:13:10.080 I would have thought my starting quarterback Jaden Daniels would 0:13:10.080 --> 0:13:11.839 have had more than five points, but. 0:13:11.800 --> 0:13:14.240 There was a that's the thing that all the points 0:13:14.280 --> 0:13:17.040 are left. It's been fantasy football this year. So if 0:13:17.120 --> 0:13:20.520 you started a lineup this weekend, everybody gets injured early. Yeah, 0:13:20.520 --> 0:13:23.160 it zero's left and right. If you started a lineup 0:13:23.200 --> 0:13:29.120 that included Deebo Samuel, right, Tank Dell, Ju Juju, you 0:13:29.160 --> 0:13:30.880 got me at zero. You got hurt in the first one. 0:13:31.000 --> 0:13:35.319 DeAndre Hopkins. Yeah, and I could I could see somebody's 0:13:35.320 --> 0:13:37.880 putting a lineup some there's something there's send me the lineup, 0:13:37.920 --> 0:13:39.959 because I guarantee you there's somebody out there that had 0:13:39.960 --> 0:13:42.959 Deebo Samuel is their number one receiver and Tank Dell 0:13:43.080 --> 0:13:44.800 is their number two, and maybe Juju was in their 0:13:44.840 --> 0:13:47.280 lineup as their three. And you took a zero across 0:13:47.280 --> 0:13:49.320 the board at the running at their wide receiver position. 0:13:49.360 --> 0:13:52.240 Yeah, and maybe you had Kelsey and Jayden Daniels and 0:13:52.320 --> 0:13:53.400 you know you've been winning game. 0:13:53.480 --> 0:13:55.880 There was one somebody tweeted it out last week where 0:13:55.880 --> 0:13:58.880 somebody started the lineup that had legit dudes in it. 0:13:59.080 --> 0:14:02.280 Yeah, like it's not a like they're winning. Probability before 0:14:02.360 --> 0:14:03.440 kickoff was probably good. 0:14:03.480 --> 0:14:07.960 You know, they scored seven Fantasy points seven. I mean, 0:14:08.000 --> 0:14:10.760 it's unbelievable some of the stuff that's happening this year, 0:14:10.760 --> 0:14:15.040 and it's affected our DFS lineups. Yeah, every week my main. 0:14:16.080 --> 0:14:19.960 League, he started Stroud and Dell and I'm like, oh, man, 0:14:19.960 --> 0:14:22.840 I might be in trouble, you know, no, no, like 0:14:22.880 --> 0:14:27.640 four points zero, you know, our DFS lineup, matt oh 0:14:27.840 --> 0:14:30.880 good lord. I wish we'd have known on Friday that 0:14:30.920 --> 0:14:33.480 Cooper Cup wasn't going to play because we changed. We 0:14:33.480 --> 0:14:36.440 would not have started Matthew Stafford knew we had in 0:14:36.440 --> 0:14:39.080 the line up. First he had four point nine six points. 0:14:39.320 --> 0:14:41.040 Now we still have JK. 0:14:41.160 --> 0:14:43.680 Dobbins and Chris Gobwin going tonight, so there's still a 0:14:43.800 --> 0:14:45.920 chance they both of them do well that we could. 0:14:46.040 --> 0:14:49.120 But right now we've got forty eight points I'm sorry, 0:14:49.200 --> 0:14:51.960 forty four point nine six points. They would both have 0:14:52.080 --> 0:14:55.520 to score like thirty each and that would still only 0:14:55.520 --> 0:14:57.880 get us. But it's still good lucky. Yeah, we'd have 0:14:57.920 --> 0:14:59.640 to some things would have to go. But it wasn't 0:14:59.680 --> 0:15:03.359 about high point win, No, it wasn't. So that possibility 0:15:03.400 --> 0:15:04.560 is there, like one hundred. 0:15:04.360 --> 0:15:06.720 Points in most leagues wins it, you know, pretty easily 0:15:06.720 --> 0:15:07.200 this week? 0:15:07.320 --> 0:15:11.200 This week, yeah, Jalen Warren got a seven point nine points. 0:15:11.240 --> 0:15:12.800 He was only two point six percent of it, but 0:15:12.880 --> 0:15:15.480 I did like the usage and he got a goal 0:15:15.520 --> 0:15:18.680 line he got a goal line carry, you know, so 0:15:19.000 --> 0:15:21.960 there again, I think that there'll be more passes coming 0:15:22.000 --> 0:15:24.600 his way. Rush for forty four actually out rushed Briest 0:15:24.640 --> 0:15:27.520 Hall in that game. Yeah, yeah, so I think that's 0:15:27.560 --> 0:15:30.240 only going to get better. As I mentioned, we got 0:15:30.240 --> 0:15:33.720 Godwin going tonight, Tank Dell we took a zero. I 0:15:33.760 --> 0:15:34.920 mean that can't happen. 0:15:35.200 --> 0:15:38.840 No, I mean, just in the real world. You don't 0:15:38.880 --> 0:15:41.200 have Nico, who's really been maybe the best receiver in 0:15:41.240 --> 0:15:43.600 league this year most give or take. But that can't 0:15:43.640 --> 0:15:45.920 be your only reason for struggling on offense as much. 0:15:45.960 --> 0:15:46.160 Today. 0:15:46.240 --> 0:15:48.480 They got too many other good dudes. And you go 0:15:49.080 --> 0:15:53.080 into the Green Bay and Diggs and Dell, they ended 0:15:53.120 --> 0:15:54.880 up like twenty seven yards between them. 0:15:55.040 --> 0:15:58.040 Yeah, Dalton Schultz had one catch for twenty eight yards. 0:15:58.080 --> 0:15:59.720 That was their leading receiver. He was a lead receiver. 0:16:00.120 --> 0:16:03.200 Yeah, I knew Diggs was in the twenty five ish neighborhood, 0:16:03.280 --> 0:16:05.360 right and he had like six catches. 0:16:05.520 --> 0:16:11.120 Yeah, what's going on? Jackson Smith and Jigba got off 0:16:11.160 --> 0:16:14.040 to a good start in that game. Actually threw a 0:16:14.080 --> 0:16:19.080 thirty five yard pass. Yeah, but five point three points 0:16:19.280 --> 0:16:21.600 and so it was a metcalf and fant Yeah, doing 0:16:21.640 --> 0:16:22.960 most of the damn. I don't think Lockett did a 0:16:22.960 --> 0:16:25.680 lot of Lockett was injured going into that game. Sam 0:16:25.720 --> 0:16:28.360 Laporta is unstartable at this point. Yeah, it's brutal. 0:16:28.800 --> 0:16:32.040 He's he's like the poster boy of tight end you 0:16:32.120 --> 0:16:34.000 drafted high that you're mad at this year. You know. 0:16:34.160 --> 0:16:37.240 Yeah, one catch for twenty five yards and he looked 0:16:37.240 --> 0:16:39.360 good doing it, and they just don't throw the ball 0:16:39.400 --> 0:16:39.760 to him. 0:16:39.880 --> 0:16:42.160 No, they have so many weapons and they run the ball. 0:16:42.320 --> 0:16:45.600 They're never going to be a super high pass percentage team. 0:16:46.280 --> 0:16:49.960 Williams takes some big plays away. There was a little 0:16:49.960 --> 0:16:52.360 bit of a warning sign though with Laporta last year, 0:16:52.440 --> 0:16:53.720 like he caught. 0:16:53.520 --> 0:16:56.960 An unusual very touchdown, Yeah, very touchdown to pen then 0:16:57.040 --> 0:16:59.240 really hard to do plicate, but the other numbers weren't. Like, 0:16:59.280 --> 0:17:01.840 he's looked good. He's not even catching passes now though, 0:17:02.200 --> 0:17:04.600 they're not even throwing him passes now. Now, it's weird. 0:17:04.760 --> 0:17:08.040 It's crazy because he's a good football player. Brock Bauers 0:17:08.119 --> 0:17:10.440 is the exact opposite they are throwing. We had him 0:17:10.440 --> 0:17:13.280 in the lineup, as did sixteen point eight percent of 0:17:13.320 --> 0:17:15.439 the other teams in this league. He got us nineteen 0:17:15.440 --> 0:17:18.200 point three points, so basically half of our points. I say, 0:17:18.200 --> 0:17:21.560 he's working from one guy. Yeah, and he was. He's 0:17:21.600 --> 0:17:23.439 only fifty eight hundred. That's probably as cheap as we'll 0:17:23.440 --> 0:17:24.280 get him the rest of the year. 0:17:24.359 --> 0:17:26.800 Yeah, I bet he's tight end two three one, you know, 0:17:26.880 --> 0:17:28.840 something like that. He's upcoming weeks. 0:17:29.200 --> 0:17:32.040 The Giants defense at twenty five hundred was they got 0:17:32.080 --> 0:17:35.120 us four points. They had five sacks. They gave up 0:17:35.359 --> 0:17:38.760 way too many points because their offense did nothing well. 0:17:38.760 --> 0:17:40.280 There was eleven sacks in that game. 0:17:40.440 --> 0:17:42.520 Yeah, you're gonna hear the word sack a lot in 0:17:42.520 --> 0:17:43.840 the next couple of days, folks. 0:17:44.000 --> 0:17:48.800 Yeah, I did start the lineup. I started myself. Is 0:17:48.840 --> 0:17:51.240 in the money right now with two players left to play. 0:17:51.880 --> 0:17:54.320 I'm sitting right this again. This shows you how low 0:17:54.400 --> 0:17:57.480 of a scoring week it was. I've got eighty seven 0:17:57.480 --> 0:17:59.600 point nine points right now with two guys left to play, 0:17:59.600 --> 0:18:01.879 and I'm in the money. In fact, I'm in seventy 0:18:01.920 --> 0:18:04.120 eighth place and one that I'm in. 0:18:04.280 --> 0:18:06.800 It almost seems like lately, the whole key is just 0:18:06.840 --> 0:18:08.960 don't get his zero, don't take a zero, yeah, which, 0:18:08.960 --> 0:18:11.240 of course nobody knows going in, but these guys that 0:18:11.280 --> 0:18:13.080 get hurt walking in, you know. 0:18:13.160 --> 0:18:16.680 So I started Mason Rudolph at quarterback. We considered it. 0:18:16.680 --> 0:18:18.720 I'm gona he's super cheap, right. We don't know, we 0:18:18.720 --> 0:18:20.679 didn't we didn't know he was starting yet. Yeah, we 0:18:20.760 --> 0:18:23.160 texted each other. See he had eleven point nine points. 0:18:23.320 --> 0:18:27.440 He had twice as many points as Matthew Stafford. Yeah. 0:18:27.760 --> 0:18:31.119 I also just unusually. Yeah. I also started Jaylen Warren. 0:18:31.160 --> 0:18:34.240 That was a seven point nine. I started Tony Pollard 0:18:35.480 --> 0:18:37.720
