4
00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:22,959
Speaker 1: advice Now League dot com. Here's your host. Welcome you

5
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:27,479
Speaker 1: a Thanksgiving weekend edition of Fantasy Football Weekly. My co

6
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:33,279
Speaker 1: hosts this weekend are Matt Harrison and Brian Johnson, and

7
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:36,360
Speaker 1: we're both ten pounds heavier. Yeah, baby, that means you're

8
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:41,360
Speaker 1: doing it right, unless it's ten pounds of pumpkin pie. Because,

9
00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:45,960
Speaker 1: as I like to mention pretty much annually to our listeners, yeah,

10
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 1: you're not eating pumpkin. You're eating squash of canned pumpkin

11
00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 1: is Dickinson squash. You are eating a cold squash pie.

12
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 1: Not only that, not cool Pickinson squash, which that's the

13
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 1: worst kind of squash exactly unless you're a big Iron

14
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 1: Maiden fan. It is the worst of all possible squashes.

15
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:12,479
Speaker 1: I like it. No, it's squashed. I don't like mountain dew,

16
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 1: but you're not drinking fresh dew off of a mountain.

17
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:20,119
Speaker 1: I mean, that's a great point. That's that's irrefutable launching

18
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 1: right there. Can't top that plenty to get you over

19
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 1: the course of the show, we will go through our

20
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 1: three tough questions. We'll give you nine players upon whom

21
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,480
Speaker 1: you can take a chance. Premature speculation coming at the

22
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 1: end of the show, and of course we will break

23
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 1: down every matchup fantasy style like we always do, and

24
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:42,839
Speaker 1: we begin with the Chicago Bears facing the Jets. Matt,

25
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:46,040
Speaker 1: We're not yet sure if Justin Fields is gonna go,

26
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 1: but let's assume he does. With the bad shoulder, gotta

27
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 1: believe we're gonna get less rushing Justin Fields if he

28
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 1: does play. Yeah, I was gonna mention that he was

29
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 1: limited in practice all week with a left shoulder injury.

30
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:01,080
Speaker 1: That's his non throwing shoulder. Uh. I imagine the Bears

31
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 1: still do suit him up and have him play, but

32
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 1: I do think they take away a few rushing attempts

33
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: and a few hits off of fields due to the injury,

34
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 1: still giving him a solid be The Jets did allow

35
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 1: Josh Allen to go for eighty six and two scores

36
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,600
Speaker 1: on the ground just two games ago, and man, if

37
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,960
Speaker 1: if you're if you're scared to take rushing away from fields,

38
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 1: they probably shouldn't play fields at all. Right, Well, I

39
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: think from the Bears perspective, you're talking fantasy. No from

40
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 1: from the Bears. I think they want him to to

41
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 1: continue to develop as a past Okay, so there we go.

42
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:33,639
Speaker 1: I think they would like to see what he can do.

43
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,799
Speaker 1: Trevor Simeon the gross backup. By the way, I hope

44
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 1: Fields played in the Spike game. The Jets took Zach

45
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 1: Wilson picks before justin Fields spite games science had that

46
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 1: one in the holster for I just know him. Alan

47
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 1: Forever had memorized all this spite practically. Um. David Montgomery

48
00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,359
Speaker 1: returned to bell cow status last week with Khalil Herbert

49
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,520
Speaker 1: on I R twenty touches last week, including all of

50
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 1: the RB targets. The Jets are good run defense, but

51
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 1: they have allowed a fair amount of success to running

52
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 1: backs in the passing game. They ranked ninth most in

53
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 1: receptions and receiving yards allowed to the position. So Montgomery

54
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 1: gets a B. I think he gets a lot of

55
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,480
Speaker 1: work in this game. Darnell Mooney has been better, but

56
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: only in the fact that he scored in two of

57
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,240
Speaker 1: the last three weeks. He's top sixty yards only once

58
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 1: in the last five games, though, He's just way too inconsistent.

59
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,680
Speaker 1: The Jets are top four and receptions and yards allowed

60
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,239
Speaker 1: to the wide receiver position. For that reason, Mooney and

61
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 1: Chase Claypool both on the bench and Cole commet he's

62
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: a complete dart throw. Last week he sunk you with

63
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 1: a three for thirty five against Atlanta. In the prior

64
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: three weeks he had five touchdowns, though, but he didn't

65
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 1: score once in weeks one through seven. So which cole

66
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 1: commit is it? It's probably the bad one this week.

67
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: The Jets have not allowed a tight end touchdown all year,

68
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,560
Speaker 1: and you're pretty dependent on that stat for commit to

69
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 1: be startable. So I'll give him the lowest possible C

70
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 1: grade in the tight end waste comme. Yeah, I was

71
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 1: just saying, really really low, low sestosterone grade. Alright, Mike

72
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 1: White is your new starter for the Jets. Zack Wilson

73
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 1: was dropped below Joe Flacco to third on the depth chart.

74
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 1: Will probably be inactive this week. I think he will

75
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,120
Speaker 1: be inactive the rest of the year. I'm not sure

76
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 1: about that. I think they might just want to give

77
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 1: him a couple of weeks off to clear his head here,

78
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 1: maybe maybe get right. Uh many of you remember Mike

79
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 1: White from his four hundred five yard three touchdown outburst

80
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: in his second career game last year against the Bengals.

81
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 1: His other two and a half games in the league

82
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:38,280
Speaker 1: were pretty brutal though. Uh and he offers absolutely zero

83
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: running ability. He does not run. He has a stand

84
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,479
Speaker 1: in the pocket and chuck the ball passer. And the

85
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: Bears are a pretty good past defense. They have like

86
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:49,360
Speaker 1: one of the league's worst defense against running quarterbacks, which

87
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 1: kind of it's a it's a little bit of a

88
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 1: head scratcher here that Zack Wilson, who is a little

89
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,719
Speaker 1: mobile isn't at least active in this game for that

90
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 1: kind of thing. But oh well, uh so it's because

91
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: he's bad. Okay, sure he has bad. I keep White

92
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,480
Speaker 1: on the bench. Twa and Dak are the only quarterbacks

93
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:07,839
Speaker 1: to throw for multiple scores on the Bear since Week two,

94
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,280
Speaker 1: and with that, I'm leaving the rest of the receivers

95
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,279
Speaker 1: on the bench as well, including Garrett Wilson, a Jets

96
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 1: wide receiver, has not scored a touchdown since Week four,

97
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:20,200
Speaker 1: which is why Zach Wilson isn't starting anymore. Uh. The

98
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 1: last Jet to mention is Michael Carter. He gets a

99
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 1: C grade here. Carter snap percent percentage still hovering around fifty,

100
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 1: with James Robinson and Ty Johnson splitting the remainder of

101
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 1: the snaps. The Jets are a good matchup for Carter

102
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,599
Speaker 1: to get something going this week. Their bottom five in

103
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,720
Speaker 1: rushing yards and touchdowns allowed to opposing backs this year,

104
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 1: and they have allowed of rushing score to a running

105
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 1: back in six of the last seven games. So Carter

106
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 1: gets the c I think Carter had like fifteen catches

107
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: and that Mike White game. Ye, Mike White is a

108
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 1: dump off pass or big time that could absolutely help

109
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 1: him here. Tampa Bay takes like Cleveland Brian for the

110
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,360
Speaker 1: Tampa Bay offense outside of Leonard for Nett, who is

111
00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 1: now the backup. Really that this is as healthy as

112
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 1: this offense has been all year A most all the receivers,

113
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,600
Speaker 1: the starting receivers are all healthy. Brady's healthy and Rashad

114
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,360
Speaker 1: White healthy. So I've got a little optimism here for

115
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:16,480
Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay Bucks going up against a Cleveland defense

116
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 1: that's been pretty bad lately. Yeah, Bucks coming off there

117
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:21,600
Speaker 1: by too, So a lot of start starting grades here,

118
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:24,839
Speaker 1: We'll start running back. I'm giving Rashad White b even

119
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:26,720
Speaker 1: if for Net goes for nets kind of if he

120
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 1: with this hip injury, he's been practicing in a limited fashion,

121
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,159
Speaker 1: but it's it's White show at this point. Feels like

122
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 1: so I got for net on the bench and Rashad

123
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 1: White with a B, whether for Net plays or not.

124
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 1: Over the Browns last three games, opposing backs are averaging

125
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,600
Speaker 1: rushing yards per game, and on the season, Cleveland has

126
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 1: surrendered the most total touchdowns to the position. Brown's also

127
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 1: allowing more than five catches per game to running back.

128
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,359
Speaker 1: So I might be talking to myself into an A

129
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,960
Speaker 1: here for I think I just did and changing it

130
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 1: all right from B to and A. I wish I

131
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 1: could have done that on many report cards as a kid,

132
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 1: but I could not. Anyway, over to the wide receiver side,

133
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:05,720
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna give a seed to Mike Evans, who

134
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:09,159
Speaker 1: hasn't scored a touchdown since Week four. But the Browns

135
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 1: have surrendered six wide receiver touchdowns over the last five games,

136
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 1: so Evans has a shot to snap his scoreless street here.

137
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 1: That said, he should see plenty of coverage from Denzil

138
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 1: a Ward, who has looked great over the last two

139
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 1: weeks since returning from injuries. Surrendering just five catches for

140
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 1: fifty scoreless yards in his last two games, and those

141
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,720
Speaker 1: came against Miami and Buffalo elite pass offenses. So just

142
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 1: to see for Evans, but a B for Chris Godwin,

143
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 1: who plays around his snaps from the slot, which means

144
00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 1: we'll see a lot of cornerback A J. Green, and

145
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 1: I don't mean the wide receiver, but he might be

146
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 1: a better court cornerback then A J. Green the cornerback,

147
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 1: but a J. Green the cornerback. Here was first start

148
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 1: of the season last week due to the loss of

149
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 1: Greg Newsome, who who will be out again this week.

150
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 1: Green only played twenty two snaps in coverage, but he

151
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 1: was targeted four times and gave up three catches for

152
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 1: twenty one yards and a touchdown. So throw it his

153
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,120
Speaker 1: way and Chris Godwin should be uh in line for

154
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 1: a big day. Julio Jones, who looked great in that

155
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 1: Germany game. I got bench here. I'll switch it to

156
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 1: a C. It's not the greatest matchup, but I just

157
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 1: kind of want to see him do it one more

158
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 1: time before I trust him to put in my starting

159
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:20,840
Speaker 1: line up. The Browns are allowing less than eleven catches

160
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 1: per game to wide receivers as a whole, which is

161
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 1: not a lot. I like Godwin and Evans more. But

162
00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 1: if you're in a pinch, I'll give Julio the Sea,

163
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 1: but I will not give a C to k dot

164
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,680
Speaker 1: And or Cameron Bred. They're back to splitting time, so

165
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 1: they're both on the bench and to be for Tom Brady.

166
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 1: The Browns have allowed multiple touchdown passes and two of

167
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:41,440
Speaker 1: their last three games. Josh Allen should have had multiple touchdowns.

168
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 1: Last week, Stephon Diggs dropped one, and I just think

169
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 1: that the trio of Tampa based wide receivers and child

170
00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:49,080
Speaker 1: White can do enough damage through the air to make

171
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 1: Brady a QB one this week, so he gets to

172
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 1: the Sea. Over the Cleveland side. Nick Chubb gets a B.

173
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 1: As I mentioned, the Bucks are coming off their by

174
00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,720
Speaker 1: so they'll be well rested and over the Over their

175
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 1: last two games, they're allowing turned very good on against

176
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,559
Speaker 1: the running, allowing just forty three rushing yards per game

177
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 1: to imposing backs and no touchdowns. And that includes holding

178
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: Kenneth Walker to just seventeen rushing yards on ten carries

179
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: in their last game. So just a B for Chubb.

180
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:19,720
Speaker 1: Uh b inn for Kareem Hunt, barely rosterable at this point,

181
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 1: he hasn't topped I agree, I think he's certainly a

182
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:25,400
Speaker 1: drop candidate. Hasn't top fifty rushing yards since Week two,

183
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 1: he hasn't caught a touchdown since week one, hasn't topped

184
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 1: thirty receiving yards all season, and over his last two

185
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 1: games he has total just fourteen touches. So easy bench

186
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:37,680
Speaker 1: for Hunt. He's really just an insurance policy in case

187
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:39,840
Speaker 1: anything happens at job. He was always like a flex

188
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:42,400
Speaker 1: worthy player, but now he's pretty much as a handcuff

189
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,880
Speaker 1: chubbed books. Fine knock on wood, he'll stay healthy. So yeah,

190
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 1: if you gotta drop Hunt, I don't blame you. Definitely

191
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 1: don't drop a Marie Cooper. You actually want to start

192
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 1: him again with a B. He's played great at home

193
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 1: and in Detroit at a neutral site, but this is

194
00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 1: a home game, and although it isn't the best matchup

195
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 1: on paper, the Bucks have surrendered three wide receiver touchdowns

196
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,199
Speaker 1: over their last two. So I like Cooper here and

197
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:06,960
Speaker 1: I'm gonna continue to like Donovan People's jones. He gets

198
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,559
Speaker 1: to see finally hit paydirt last week, and uh, dudes

199
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,440
Speaker 1: just been consistent over the last two months. Uh DPJ

200
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 1: has notched at least fifty receiving yards in seven straight

201
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,560
Speaker 1: games and the top seventy yards and five of those

202
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 1: seven games. So keep rolling them out. There is a

203
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 1: wide receiver three and I he seems like a pretty

204
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 1: safe play, David and Joeku somewhat safe. He gets to see.

205
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 1: The Bucks have allowed at least six catches to opposing

206
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 1: tight ends and two of the last three games, and

207
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,640
Speaker 1: we'll take that production in the tight end waste land.

208
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: And lastly, Jacoby Brissette and what could be his last

209
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:40,720
Speaker 1: start of the season because DeShawn Watson's eligible today. Previously

210
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 1: claimed that they were gonna make the switch no matter

211
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,839
Speaker 1: what as soon as Watson was available, and I guess

212
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,400
Speaker 1: his contract would suggest that that will be the case.

213
00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 1: Per Sette played really well last week. I think he's

214
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 1: overall QB one. If not, he was the top three

215
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 1: quarterback and he's gonna want to go out in a

216
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,120
Speaker 1: blaze of glory. I'm giving him a see here. The

217
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,719
Speaker 1: Bucks have surrendered multiple touchdown PA passes in three of

218
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,679
Speaker 1: their last four games, and they also on the sixth

219
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 1: highest opponent passing play percentage on the road, Superset will

220
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 1: have his chance to air it out. You can say

221
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 1: he's gonna go on a blaze of glory and then

222
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:15,320
Speaker 1: give him a cee. Well starting to go. See that's

223
00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 1: that's that's the Jacobe prisets like blaze of glory. Startable,

224
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:24,880
Speaker 1: that's it. That's it. Baltimore takes on Jacksonville. Let's go through. Uh,

225
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,960
Speaker 1: let's really just a handful of lukewarm starters for a

226
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:31,040
Speaker 1: Baltimore offense that has struggled a lot. Mark Andrews is

227
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:35,120
Speaker 1: not in question, obviously after returning in full strength last week,

228
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 1: and the Jaguars prior to last week's by got blown

229
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 1: apart by you know, the Kansas City tight Ends, which granted,

230
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 1: you know they're really good. Uh, still a grade for

231
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 1: Mark Andrews. But where things get a lot dice here

232
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 1: is for Lamar Jackson since week three, and it was

233
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 1: a long time ago. It was September, it was warm outside,

234
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 1: the trees hadn't changed yet, Tom Brady was still married.

235
00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 1: He scored seven touchdowns total rushing and receiving. He's typically

236
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:08,160
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson's typically being outscored by whichever other quarterback you

237
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:12,160
Speaker 1: have on your roster still HiT's Jacksonville Giras have allowed

238
00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 1: the most broken tackles, which could bode well for Jackson

239
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,439
Speaker 1: on the ground, and it's a bit of a plus

240
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 1: matchup for him through the air as well. Posing quarterbacks

241
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 1: are averaging two D fifty eight passing yards and one

242
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:26,120
Speaker 1: and a half touchdowns per game against Jacksonville. I would

243
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,000
Speaker 1: take one and a half touchdowns at this point for

244
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. You can't start any of his wide receivers

245
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 1: since Bateman has gone down. These receivers as a group

246
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:44,680
Speaker 1: are averaging sixty eight yards per game among all of them.

247
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 1: It's a disaster, and we're not chasing DeMarcus Robinson's random

248
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:50,480
Speaker 1: explosion last week. They're all on the bench B grade

249
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,200
Speaker 1: for Lamar Jackson. If I didn't give him an actual

250
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 1: letter grade, I'm going be here just because of the

251
00:12:55,720 --> 00:13:00,319
Speaker 1: rushing upside that he's got. Then over to Gus Edwards

252
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 1: if he plays and when we don't know for sure

253
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 1: if he's going to or not startable as a touchdown

254
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,960
Speaker 1: option against the team allowing a rushing touchdown per game

255
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 1: since Week four. And reminder, last time Gus Edwards played

256
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 1: in his only other full game the immediately game sixteen

257
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,560
Speaker 1: carries and two and he scored two rushing touchdowns, so

258
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:18,600
Speaker 1: they won't hesitate to give him the ball to stripe

259
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 1: again here as well, Kenyan Drake comes into the C grade.

260
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:23,480
Speaker 1: He's had at least ten touches in each of the

261
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:26,560
Speaker 1: last five games while averaging seventy two total yards and

262
00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 1: almost a score per game. Um. But the catch here again,

263
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 1: if Gus Edwards plays, then he's not getting those touchdowns.

264
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 1: Those will probably go to Edwards. The Jaguars allowed the

265
00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:39,280
Speaker 1: tenth most total yards per game to opposing running backs,

266
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 1: and they're particularly vulnerable through the air. But Drake does

267
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 1: not catch, so that does not help him, and that's

268
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 1: why he has a C grade along with Gus Edwards

269
00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:48,440
Speaker 1: C grade. All right, let's go to Jacksonville. You got

270
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,439
Speaker 1: a handful of starters here. Tricky game for Travis E.

271
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:56,359
Speaker 1: T N. In the two games since Baltimore acquired linebacker

272
00:13:56,440 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: ro Kwan Smith, they're giving up third scoreless rushing yards

273
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:06,199
Speaker 1: per game. That's it. That includes, by the way, in

274
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:11,079
Speaker 1: those two games they faced Alvin Kamara and Donta Foreman.

275
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 1: Those are two pretty good backs. Both. Well, we'll actually

276
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 1: talk more about one of those players in great detail

277
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 1: a little bit later in the show. Um, they do

278
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 1: remain vulnerable through the air. They're seeing the sixth most

279
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 1: receptions of fifth most receiving yards, and Travis E. T

280
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 1: N can catch a bit, but they don't use him

281
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 1: that much as much as you think they would. He's

282
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 1: averaging three targets per game. He's hauled in three receptions

283
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 1: in half of his games this season. So I just

284
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 1: I don't see a lot coming here. You need a

285
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 1: touchdown really for Travis e t N, which he might get,

286
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 1: and that's why I've got a C grade on him

287
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,640
Speaker 1: and not a bench grade altogether. In a brutally tough

288
00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 1: matchup they could work in. They claimed Darryl Henderson to

289
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 1: they've they've Alrea will not be a factor this week.

290
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:58,200
Speaker 1: I'm happy to say Christian Kirk gets a B grade

291
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 1: as my highest graded Jaguar this week. Unlikely. He's been

292
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 1: an unlikely top ten wide receiver so far this season,

293
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:09,800
Speaker 1: but consistently helpful. Kirk has averaged sixty eight yards. He's

294
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,760
Speaker 1: reached pay dirt four times in his last five games.

295
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:17,400
Speaker 1: His primary defender in the slot is rookie cornerback de

296
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:22,040
Speaker 1: Marian Williams. He has the third lowest Pro Football Focus

297
00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:26,400
Speaker 1: grade among all cornerbacks. It's a glorious matchup for Christian Kirk,

298
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,040
Speaker 1: who comes in with a B grade. Here. The rest

299
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:33,160
Speaker 1: of the Jacksonville receivers, including the Jacksonville Joneses, our benchable.

300
00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 1: We are not keeping up with the Joneses. They've They're

301
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 1: barely rostered anywhere anyway. It's a brutal matchup which you

302
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,560
Speaker 1: do not like. And since week for only one receiver

303
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:45,520
Speaker 1: has top seventy six yards against Baltimore. How about we

304
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:54,920
Speaker 1: call them Jacksonsville Jacks Jacksons, maybe Jacksons jack I don't know.

305
00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 1: I think it's a stretch. I'll be honest. Trevor Lawrence

306
00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 1: is a c gre He's been a viable Fantasy star,

307
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 1: but I do not like this matchup. Baltimore has only

308
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 1: surrendered multiple touchdowns twice all season. They've been dominant over

309
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,440
Speaker 1: the last month, allowing just to score since weeks six.

310
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:15,120
Speaker 1: So Trevor Lawrence with a tricky matchup in just the

311
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 1: sea grade in this game when we come back, take

312
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 1: a chance on me. Nine players upon whom you can

313
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 1: take a chance. These are guys not normally in your

314
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 1: starting lineup. Many of these players are available off the

315
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: waiver wire. We will tell you who they are when

316
00:16:30,280 --> 00:17:08,280
Speaker 1: we return to Fantasy Football Weekly. Welcome back. Take your

317
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 1: chance at me nine players you would not normally start.

318
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:15,640
Speaker 1: Many of these guys available on the waiver wire. Let's

319
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,640
Speaker 1: begin at the quarterback position, at Matt Harrison. I'll use

320
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:22,040
Speaker 1: Matt Ryan, who has looked all right since re taking

321
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:25,080
Speaker 1: over the starting job with new coach Jeff Saturday. We're

322
00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:27,200
Speaker 1: quick to forget that Ryan has three games of over

323
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:30,719
Speaker 1: three fifty passing yards this season, and he's thrown every

324
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 1: single one of the Colts passing scores this year. Uh,

325
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:36,359
Speaker 1: the Steelers have allowed the fourth most passing yards and

326
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 1: the third most passing scores, and out of the ten

327
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,600
Speaker 1: quarterbacks they faced, eight of them have had at least

328
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 1: two hundred fifty yards or multiple touchdowns. All right, Matt

329
00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,160
Speaker 1: Ryan in the house. Let's go to your quarterback, Brian.

330
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,240
Speaker 1: I got Ryan Tannehill at home against the Bengals. Over

331
00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,679
Speaker 1: the last two weeks, the Titans that faced the number

332
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:56,439
Speaker 1: one in number five pass defenses and the Broncos and

333
00:17:56,480 --> 00:18:01,520
Speaker 1: the Packers, and Tannehill has average passing game with four

334
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,960
Speaker 1: touchdown passes over those two games, not too shabby. Now

335
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:08,399
Speaker 1: draws the Bengals, who just let Kenny Pickett throw for

336
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 1: two sixty and a touchdown, which should have been too Yeah, yeah,

337
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:14,880
Speaker 1: I really should have to bring that up again because

338
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:16,960
Speaker 1: it costs me like two grand and daily if George

339
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,280
Speaker 1: Pickens holds onto that ball. So I'm gonna turn off

340
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:22,359
Speaker 1: my mic and cry now. H Taylor Heineke is no

341
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,320
Speaker 1: need to cry here. He has been named the full

342
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 1: time starter for Washington. He's looked good on paper. What

343
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 1: does not look good? Atlanta UM They look like an

344
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 1: improved secondary, but in the last month they have faced

345
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:38,040
Speaker 1: the modest passing of p J Walker, Justin Fields, p J. Walker,

346
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:42,040
Speaker 1: and Justin Herbert without his whiteouts. Prior to those games,

347
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:44,920
Speaker 1: the Falcons are getting destroyed by quarterbacks three or eighteen

348
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:47,959
Speaker 1: yards and almost two touchdowns per game. Heineke probably does

349
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 1: not bring three eighteen and two to the table. It's

350
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:51,960
Speaker 1: not his kind of upside. In fact, he hasn't scored

351
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:55,080
Speaker 1: in back to back games, but a solid game probably

352
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,960
Speaker 1: coming here running from the outside. Terry McLaurin has got

353
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,480
Speaker 1: very nice matchups. We'll talk more about him later, or so,

354
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:03,200
Speaker 1: just if only for Terry mclaurin's upside, we can start

355
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:06,600
Speaker 1: Taylor Heineke this week. Terry, Let's go to the running

356
00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:10,400
Speaker 1: back position. Raheem most Stirt is a must start this

357
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 1: year or this week. Yes, most are to said single

358
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 1: digit carries in both games since Jeff Wilson came to town.

359
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,640
Speaker 1: But also yes, the Texans are that bad where eight

360
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,000
Speaker 1: or nine carries for most are it might be enough.

361
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 1: They're basically bottom three in every category against running backs,

362
00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 1: but the most notable one should be they've allowed the

363
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,240
Speaker 1: most running back combo yards in the league this year

364
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:35,119
Speaker 1: at a hundred and eighty four per game. It's insane,

365
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:38,360
Speaker 1: and the third most total touchdowns to running backs at

366
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:41,679
Speaker 1: fourteen through ten games. So most are it's got a

367
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 1: decent chance at eighty and a score here in a

368
00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:48,240
Speaker 1: backup role. Here, in a backup role, Brian, you're running back,

369
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:51,600
Speaker 1: take a chance on me. Player uh Deonta foreman of

370
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:54,400
Speaker 1: the Panthers at home against the Broncos. He falls back

371
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,720
Speaker 1: into take on range sadly after his gud game last week,

372
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:00,240
Speaker 1: but he could bounce back against the Broncos defense has

373
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,440
Speaker 1: softened against the run. Over their last four games, opposing

374
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 1: backs are averaging rushing yards per game on nearly five

375
00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:10,360
Speaker 1: yards per carry against Denver, and you know the Panthers

376
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,119
Speaker 1: will want to lean on the run game with Sam

377
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,679
Speaker 1: Donald starting at quarterbacks. So I'm going back to the

378
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:16,960
Speaker 1: well with foreman all right, might take a chance of

379
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,920
Speaker 1: me running back him? Probably Littavius Murray, last man standing

380
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,359
Speaker 1: again the Denver back. Is it the dawning of the

381
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 1: age of Lottavius again again? He could be Mike Boone,

382
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:29,479
Speaker 1: by the way, as a reminder, still on the injured reserve.

383
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 1: He's a good take a chance. I mean, our pre's

384
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:34,640
Speaker 1: been sure speculation. We might talk about him more later.

385
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:38,240
Speaker 1: His only competition for touches for Latavius Murray's Marlon Mack,

386
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,680
Speaker 1: who has already been cut twice this year. Murray could

387
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,480
Speaker 1: be looking at a lot of volume against the Panther's

388
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:45,520
Speaker 1: team allowing the sixth most rushing yards the fifth most

389
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 1: touchdowns per game to opposing running backs. And despite Denver's

390
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:53,280
Speaker 1: offensive woes, Murray's been solid. He's scored in three or

391
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:56,199
Speaker 1: five games. He's averaged sixty ish total yards in the

392
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,360
Speaker 1: other two games. He's been a solid contributor anyway. Now

393
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,760
Speaker 1: he's gonna get the aster majority of the work. Let's

394
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:03,879
Speaker 1: go to the wide receiver position. Well, I'm gonna go

395
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,800
Speaker 1: with the tight end position. I'm going really, really, really

396
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 1: deep into the tight end waste land chargers, backup tight ends.

397
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 1: Tray McKitty, you're not going Donald Palm, No, he's not.

398
00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:21,840
Speaker 1: I rude. Oh that's pretty good. Yeah, I was gonna

399
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 1: see if we had a meal. I think I think

400
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:28,400
Speaker 1: we have a horse nee. Yeah, I've got anyway, that's

401
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:31,480
Speaker 1: that's technically a mongoose, but you know they got four legs.

402
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 1: Gerald Everett does look like he'll play this weekend. He's

403
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,680
Speaker 1: a good start too, but it's a groin injury for Everett.

404
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:38,800
Speaker 1: Those tend to recur a little bit. Donald Palm on

405
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:43,359
Speaker 1: I r so here, McKitty kitty, Uh, McKitty saw six

406
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,680
Speaker 1: targets in Week ten against the forty. Niners dominated the

407
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:49,480
Speaker 1: snap count last week and Everett's absence, and this week

408
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:51,239
Speaker 1: he gets the Cardinals, who are the worst tight end

409
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 1: defense in the league. They have allowed the most receptions,

410
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:56,159
Speaker 1: yards and touchdowns to tight ends this year, which is

411
00:21:56,160 --> 00:22:00,240
Speaker 1: why they are the worst. Let's go to Brian your

412
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 1: take a chance of me receiver. I got Mac Hollands

413
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 1: of the Raids at at Seattle. Over Seattle's last two games,

414
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:10,560
Speaker 1: opposing wide receivers are averaging fifteen catches and a hundred

415
00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 1: and fifty plus yards per and they've total three touchdowns.

416
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 1: Those are good numbers for the opposition, and you have

417
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 1: to expect that Davante Adams will command lots of double

418
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,160
Speaker 1: coverage from the Seahawks. So I think Mac will find

419
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 1: some space in this one. And most importantly, there is

420
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 1: a spike game angle here and draft. The Seahawks selected

421
00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:35,080
Speaker 1: Amara Darbo exactly twelve picks before mac hollins, and he's

422
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:40,040
Speaker 1: gonna rub it in their face on Sunday. When was

423
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:46,360
Speaker 1: mccollins drafted like the six early fourth mccollins literally has

424
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 1: a most of them three times. Paris Campbell has surged

425
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 1: to life with Matt Ryan under center, and Campbell's last

426
00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:00,159
Speaker 1: four games with Ryan he scored three in time. In

427
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,159
Speaker 1: those four games, He's averaging seven catches for sixty eight

428
00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 1: yards and Matt Ryan's starts impressive. There is no reason

429
00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:10,680
Speaker 1: to believe the Steelers will slow down Paris Campbell's momentum

430
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,199
Speaker 1: running from the slot. He's gonna face Arthur Malllett, one

431
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:17,399
Speaker 1: of the league's shakiest slock corners. Male I got roasted

432
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,840
Speaker 1: for eighty one yards in a score last week and

433
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:24,880
Speaker 1: he owns up PF ranking as the one hundred six cornerback.

434
00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:28,840
Speaker 1: It's an excellent opportunity for Paris Campbell. Just so you

435
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 1: guys know, when you're doing scientific spike game research, you

436
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,040
Speaker 1: have to break the draft into tears and you look

437
00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 1: at like, I'm not gonna Let's say Matt Collins. You know,

438
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,040
Speaker 1: Justin Jefferson was draft and it was different drafts. You

439
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:43,040
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. It's a spike game. You'll do

440
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 1: anything to find his spike games. Uh, Matt, let's go

441
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:51,119
Speaker 1: to Houston taking on Miami. We have already touched. Uh

442
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 1: did we touch on this game? Yeah, well a little bit.

443
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,760
Speaker 1: But let's start with Houston, who has another new quarterback.

444
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,800
Speaker 1: It's Kyle Allen, who seems primed to get the start.

445
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,720
Speaker 1: Davis Mills. He'd be close to take a chance on

446
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:04,920
Speaker 1: me player this week because Miami tends to get into

447
00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:08,440
Speaker 1: track meets with opposing teams. However, the Dolphins have been

448
00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:12,719
Speaker 1: pretty decent against backup level quarterbacks in the last six weeks,

449
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,240
Speaker 1: Zach Wilson, Jacoby Brissette, and Kenny Pickett have all been

450
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,560
Speaker 1: held under to sixty yards and limited to one or

451
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 1: zero touchdowns. Alan has two starts in the last three years,

452
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 1: and the best game of those was for the Washington

453
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:29,160
Speaker 1: football team, where he threw for two eight and two

454
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:33,040
Speaker 1: against the then horrible Giants. Everything else was bad. I'm

455
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:36,560
Speaker 1: keeping him on the bench. Uh. Nico Collins and Brandon Cooks,

456
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 1: I'll give them both SEA grades just because it's probably

457
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:44,120
Speaker 1: a little bit of a game script situation here. Collins

458
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 1: has led Cooks in targets and catch totals in each

459
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 1: of the last two games that both have played, and

460
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:52,399
Speaker 1: in the last three games, four different wide receivers have

461
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:56,640
Speaker 1: topped ten PPR points against the Dolphins, So both startable here.

462
00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,359
Speaker 1: We'll talk more about Nico Collins later in the show. Sure,

463
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:03,360
Speaker 1: Damian Pierce just a B grade here. It was It's

464
00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 1: closer to a CEE than an A. By the way,

465
00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 1: the Dolphins have been great against the run. They're allowing

466
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 1: the fourth fewest combo yards per game to opposing runners.

467
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:14,560
Speaker 1: The bright spot is the Dolphins are allowing just over

468
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:16,960
Speaker 1: a tight end or sorry a touchdown per game to

469
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,919
Speaker 1: opposing runners, and Pierce gets almost all the work, so

470
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,000
Speaker 1: he should be able to claw his way to like

471
00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 1: eight yards in a score here also a bit of

472
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:28,720
Speaker 1: a homecoming game. Oh yeah, there we go, right he

473
00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:31,359
Speaker 1: mostart might take a chance on me runner and for

474
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:34,800
Speaker 1: similar points already made. Jeff Wilson gets an A grade

475
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 1: in this one. Yes, I love Jeff. I think I

476
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 1: have Jeff Wilson number three running back. I mean it's Houston,

477
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:48,920
Speaker 1: It's it's okay. Hey, can we consider an art Vark

478
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 1: for Jeff Wilson. No, that's silly, he's not that he's

479
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 1: there's most starts still there, I got I got art

480
00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:01,280
Speaker 1: Varks later in the show for so many uh um,

481
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:04,280
Speaker 1: all right back to uh the Dolphins. Despite no one

482
00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,400
Speaker 1: passing on the Texans and it's so easy to run

483
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:09,040
Speaker 1: against them, I'll still give Tyrek and a grade and

484
00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 1: Jalen Waddle a B. Davante Adams A J Brown, Darius

485
00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:15,240
Speaker 1: Slayton each put up quality Fantasy days against the Texans

486
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,320
Speaker 1: in the last month, and the talent of Hill and

487
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:19,200
Speaker 1: Waddle just should be able to do the same even

488
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:23,000
Speaker 1: with limited touches. Mike Kasiki is totally touchdown dependent, and

489
00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say that this is a favorable touchdown matchup

490
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:28,240
Speaker 1: as the Texans have only allowed four scores the position

491
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 1: in ten games. So I'll keep him on the bench.

492
00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,639
Speaker 1: If I like Hill and Waddle, I gotta like Tah

493
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:35,200
Speaker 1: enough to give him a B grade. He has three

494
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:38,680
Speaker 1: touchdown passes in three straight games. I think he can

495
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:41,760
Speaker 1: do enough to cobble together a fourth straight multi touchdown

496
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:46,159
Speaker 1: game here. So TA is good to go alright TOA

497
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:48,520
Speaker 1: is good to go TOA is going to end up

498
00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:51,320
Speaker 1: finishing the season as your yardage leader even with his

499
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 1: missed games. That is very possible. Yeah, Patrick Mahomes might

500
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,119
Speaker 1: have something to say about that. That's that's gonna be

501
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,640
Speaker 1: the tricky That's gonna be the tricky one. But I'm

502
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,119
Speaker 1: team two on this one, in particular. When we come

503
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 1: back Denver takes on Carolina, we'll tell you if any

504
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:11,200
Speaker 1: we already told you one Denver player we like, we'll

505
00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 1: tell if there's any others that we like in this

506
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 1: really ugly matchup. D J Moore startable yes, no drop

507
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:22,120
Speaker 1: herble yes no. Plenty To get to four segment number

513
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:54,119
Speaker 1: Denver takes on Carolina. This is the crappiest matchup of

514
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:57,040
Speaker 1: the weekend. Brian. Yeah, what's the opposite of a barn burner,

515
00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:01,080
Speaker 1: barn raiser? It's the Amish barn raising and day. That's

516
00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:03,760
Speaker 1: the opposite right there. I would probably rather watch the

517
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:07,320
Speaker 1: Amish raiser bar in this football game over under in

518
00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:10,320
Speaker 1: this game is six. Start with Latavius Murray. He was

519
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:12,760
Speaker 1: charges take a chance on me running back, basically the

520
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,919
Speaker 1: only running back active for the Broncos. So yeah, I

521
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:20,160
Speaker 1: like that. Start Um Courtland Sutton and Jerry Judy. I'll

522
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:22,280
Speaker 1: give them both the seed. Judy, keep your eye on him.

523
00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:24,400
Speaker 1: He might not play, but if he suits up, I'll

524
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:26,920
Speaker 1: give him the See here, the Panthers secondary has struggled

525
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 1: without starting corner Dante Jackson. Loss. Yeah, they allowed to

526
00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 1: wide receiver touchdowns. The Falcons in Week ten. Last week

527
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,720
Speaker 1: to Marcus Robinson had nine catches for a dy yards

528
00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:40,200
Speaker 1: against them. So Sutton end or Judy can get something

529
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:41,880
Speaker 1: done here. But I only think it'll be one of them.

530
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 1: It's because J. C. Horns on the other side, right,

531
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,480
Speaker 1: and he's awesome. And we'll talk about their quarterback in

532
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:49,440
Speaker 1: a minute to uh in not a very nice way.

533
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 1: I can't wait for that anyway. Let's talk about the

534
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:54,440
Speaker 1: tight end quick. Greg Dalson she gets to see has

535
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:56,480
Speaker 1: a decent matchup this week, as the Panthers are allowing

536
00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:59,160
Speaker 1: five catches in fifty yards per game to tight ends,

537
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 1: and over their last five games, Carolina has yielded nine

538
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 1: targets to the position, So I like doll sits here

539
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:10,600
Speaker 1: nine times nine times. Lastly, though Russell Wilson, he is

540
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 1: on the bench, has thrown for zero or one touchdown

541
00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:17,320
Speaker 1: in every game but one, so he now needs five

542
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 1: touchdown pass I didn't do this reach research. I wish

543
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 1: I could attribute this. I don't know who initially came

544
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 1: up with this, but he needs five touchdown passes to

545
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:27,280
Speaker 1: equal the number of toilets he has in his house,

546
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:30,880
Speaker 1: which is reportedly twelve twelve. He's got twelve toilets. He

547
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:34,480
Speaker 1: started the season with twelve, and they're speculating that he

548
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 1: has not added anymore toilets to his house nor subtracted

549
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,120
Speaker 1: anymore any toilets from his house. So they've got that

550
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 1: at twelve. But if what if you put in like

551
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:45,000
Speaker 1: a yurnal or something, well, I don't think you were

552
00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 1: count I don't mean. I think a guy that sits

553
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:51,920
Speaker 1: down to pe every time, so I think in his house.

554
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:53,959
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Russell, you're just too easy to pick on anyway.

555
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 1: Over to the Panther's side, Uh don'te Foreman was my

556
00:29:56,680 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 1: Are you gonna give Russell a grade? Uh? Bench toilet toy?

557
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 1: I'll put him on the throne. He can pick one

558
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 1: of his toilet. He can sit on the bench, or

559
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:10,320
Speaker 1: he can sit on the toilet on the throne, is

560
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 1: what I hear you say. All right, let's ride to

561
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 1: the other side. Over to the Panthers. Dante Foreman was

562
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 1: my take a chance on me running back. Denver's d

563
00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 1: softened as of late, so I like him in this

564
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,040
Speaker 1: matchup to bounce back. I do not like Tchuba Hubbard.

565
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 1: He use on the bench. Since his return in week ten,

566
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 1: Cuba has nine carries for fourteen scoreless yards in a

567
00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:30,520
Speaker 1: very bad fumble. So I don't see him doing much here.

568
00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 1: I don't see Terrace Marshall or d J. Moore doing

569
00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:38,240
Speaker 1: much either. They're on the bench with Sam Donald as quarterback,

570
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:42,600
Speaker 1: and the Broncos are only allowing eleven catches one yards

571
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 1: per game to wide receivers. They've surrendered just five touchdowns

572
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,560
Speaker 1: to the position. Granted, four of those five touchdowns have

573
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 1: come over the last two weeks. Nick Westbrook, A Keene

574
00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,640
Speaker 1: and Davante Adams both top the hundred yards and scored

575
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:55,800
Speaker 1: toys against Denver over the last two weeks. But again,

576
00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:59,280
Speaker 1: Sam Donald, as you're starting cornerback quarterback, I can't go

577
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:01,880
Speaker 1: there with more or Marshall, and I'm certainly not gonna

578
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 1: start Tommy Tremble or Sam Donald, of course certainly not.

579
00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:08,280
Speaker 1: All right, let's just can we agree just drop d J. Moore.

580
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,320
Speaker 1: I mean, think about good. It's gonna did a long

581
00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 1: time ago. I mean, yes, and I missed the one

582
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 1: good game he had, right, it is about one good game.

583
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:19,920
Speaker 1: You're gonna feel so good. I mean, do they play

584
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 1: Atlantic again? At least want to have him for the

585
00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:27,160
Speaker 1: Atlantic game? No, they played it twice twice three weeks.

586
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:30,880
Speaker 1: It's over. It's over when you hit the drop button

587
00:31:31,040 --> 00:31:38,960
Speaker 1: and confirm to just unshackle yourself from d J. You're

588
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,320
Speaker 1: talking redraft only the of course I wouldn't drop him

589
00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:44,440
Speaker 1: in Dynasty. They have to do that with Kyle Pitts

590
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:46,920
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago, too, did you I did

591
00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 1: got ahead of you. You You dropped him in Dynasty. No,

592
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:55,520
Speaker 1: Atlanta takes on Washington and we've got exactly one starter

593
00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:59,840
Speaker 1: and it's we're back to this. It's Drake London. London

594
00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:02,200
Speaker 1: is you have to see more than forty receiving yards

595
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 1: since week three, but the Commanders have allowed the most

596
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,960
Speaker 1: wide receiver touchdowns over the past five weeks. In London's

597
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,880
Speaker 1: got that big frame, well suited friend zone news. His

598
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:14,680
Speaker 1: most common individual matchup is against cornerback Ben st Juice,

599
00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:17,960
Speaker 1: a neutral matchup, and he's given up a lot of touchdowns.

600
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:21,080
Speaker 1: So on the hope that if you think Marcus Mariota

601
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:25,960
Speaker 1: is good for one touchdown, one touchdown pass, Drake London's

602
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 1: got to be the guy. No, Kyle Pitts, We've already

603
00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 1: covered that. Moments ago. I can see Pitts just standing

604
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 1: on the sideline and Mariotta throw us at him and

605
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 1: he's like, oh, now you do, Now you throw He's

606
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:40,920
Speaker 1: gonna he's gonna catch three balls on the sideline an

607
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:44,800
Speaker 1: out out more fantasy points that he's had in nice.

608
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:46,240
Speaker 1: He was having a good game last week before he

609
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:48,920
Speaker 1: got hurt. That's that's all you've got left, don't you.

610
00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 1: Before his season ending injury, he was doing well. You

611
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:56,720
Speaker 1: had a few good games. Let's talk about your bench players,

612
00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 1: including Marcus Mariotta. You already know the Falcons rarely passed.

613
00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 1: They thirty one and passing plays per game thirty one

614
00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:05,080
Speaker 1: and passing percentage. How funny would it be for Kyle

615
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 1: Pitts owners if Mariotta throws like fifty passes in this

616
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:12,400
Speaker 1: game and all to the tight end. Right, Well, he's

617
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:16,400
Speaker 1: a wide receiver. So with Pitts gone, it removes on

618
00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:19,720
Speaker 1: of Mariota's few aerial weapons. London is gonna need to

619
00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:22,640
Speaker 1: single handedly power the passing offense, something he's not proven

620
00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:25,080
Speaker 1: he's able to do. You're really you're starting Mariota with

621
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:28,560
Speaker 1: the hope of rushing. Washington has allowed quarterback rushing touchdowns

622
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:30,600
Speaker 1: and back to back games, so you could throw a

623
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:35,080
Speaker 1: I guess you could throw a dart market Mariota, but

624
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:36,640
Speaker 1: I've got a bench good on him, and I don't

625
00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:41,160
Speaker 1: recommend it. All the running backs, Patterson, Algier, Huntley Williams.

626
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:45,360
Speaker 1: What a what a mess for fantasy owners. It's a

627
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:49,160
Speaker 1: matchup that features the league's ugliest running back by committee

628
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 1: with the league's best run defense. So they're all on

629
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:55,960
Speaker 1: the bench. Commanders have held their last six opponents under

630
00:33:55,960 --> 00:33:59,120
Speaker 1: one rushing yards, and on the season, only one runners

631
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 1: top seventy six yards against Washington. Only two backs have

632
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 1: scored rushing touchdowns against Washington since the opener. A brutal matchup.

633
00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:10,400
Speaker 1: So they're all on the bench. Let's go to Washington

634
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:12,319
Speaker 1: side of this, or we do have more we have

635
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:17,520
Speaker 1: more optimism for their players. Taylor Heineke was might take

636
00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:21,279
Speaker 1: a chance on me quarterback Terry McLaurin, I mentioned, and

637
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:24,040
Speaker 1: when I was tign about Taylor, Heineke was saying, Terry mccluy,

638
00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:30,040
Speaker 1: nice matchup a grade Terry McLaurin. Sence, Heineke took over McLaren,

639
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:34,400
Speaker 1: averaging a robust nine targets and eighty five yards per game.

640
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,880
Speaker 1: McLaren can dominate an Atlanta secondary that's allowed the most

641
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:41,080
Speaker 1: receptions and the most yards to wide receivers, along with

642
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:44,240
Speaker 1: the third most touchdowns. Cornerback A J. Terrell is allowed

643
00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:47,480
Speaker 1: the most coverage touchdowns of any player in the league

644
00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 1: and an astoundingly high one D thirty one passer rating

645
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:56,280
Speaker 1: on passes thrown into his coverage. Terry McLaurin a grade

646
00:34:57,840 --> 00:34:59,960
Speaker 1: Curtis Samuel, though on the bench. He was getting a

647
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,080
Speaker 1: ton of you so with Carson Wentz, but very little

648
00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:04,520
Speaker 1: with Heineke, averaging just two catches per game over the

649
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 1: last month. We're gonna keep him on the bench. The

650
00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:10,040
Speaker 1: running backs Robinson and Gibson both gets C grades in

651
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:12,839
Speaker 1: this one. For Robinson, over the last three games only

652
00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:16,200
Speaker 1: Chicago is run the ball at a higher percentage than Washington,

653
00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:19,480
Speaker 1: which gives Robinson ample opportunity to get basically stuff that

654
00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:21,719
Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage because that's what he does. He

655
00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:24,360
Speaker 1: ranks fifty first out of fifty three running backs in

656
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:28,640
Speaker 1: yards before contact. He has not averaged more than three

657
00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:32,440
Speaker 1: point nine yards per carrying any game this year. Atlanta

658
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:35,040
Speaker 1: has however, seen a running back score against them in

659
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,040
Speaker 1: five consecutive games. And that's the only reason I have

660
00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:40,000
Speaker 1: a starting grade on Brian Robinson is the expectation that

661
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:42,640
Speaker 1: he could get a touchdown in this game on a

662
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:46,279
Speaker 1: short run. Antonio Gibson factors into the C grade. I

663
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:48,000
Speaker 1: went back and forth with him on a C grade

664
00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:52,719
Speaker 1: versus bench if you factor in the receptions, Gibson is

665
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,719
Speaker 1: getting as many touches as Robinson lately, and he's doing

666
00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:58,800
Speaker 1: more with them. Both Gibson and Robinson got carries inside

667
00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:01,000
Speaker 1: the five yard line last weeks, so you've got the

668
00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:03,480
Speaker 1: hope for a touchdown for Gibson as well. And I

669
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:06,480
Speaker 1: mentioned before Atlanta is giving up running back touchdowns. The

670
00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:08,680
Speaker 1: Falcons aren't giving up a lot of running back reception.

671
00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:10,560
Speaker 1: So I don't think Gibson helps you out a lot

672
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:15,120
Speaker 1: from a PPR standpoint, but hopefully in totality can cobble

673
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:19,440
Speaker 1: together a good game. Let's work in another matchup, Matt

674
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:24,319
Speaker 1: New Orleans taking on San Francisco. Alvin Camara has let's

675
00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:26,160
Speaker 1: just say it, he's been bad. We're gonna talk more

676
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 1: about him next segment. What do you think about this

677
00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:32,240
Speaker 1: matchup with San Francisco. I was gonna call him topsy turvy,

678
00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:35,160
Speaker 1: but a hundred and fifty eight yards and three scores

679
00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:38,680
Speaker 1: against the Raiders now four weeks ago. Since then, he's

680
00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:42,160
Speaker 1: averaged sixty five total yards and had zero scores in

681
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:45,720
Speaker 1: the next three games. Now. He did that facing two

682
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:48,359
Speaker 1: top ten run defenses there, and he gets another one

683
00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:51,000
Speaker 1: this week in San Francisco. The Niners have allowed the

684
00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:54,320
Speaker 1: fewest rushing yards this season. They've only allowed five total

685
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:57,880
Speaker 1: touchdowns to the position all year. He also hasn't practiced

686
00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:00,840
Speaker 1: this week due to an illness. I gonna give Kamara

687
00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:03,520
Speaker 1: a C grade, but he's more of a flex consideration

688
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,359
Speaker 1: than a solid starter at running back, and I'd rather

689
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:08,800
Speaker 1: have him on the bench if I have any better options.

690
00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:13,560
Speaker 1: This week. Andy Dalton has been Andy Dalton, and uh

691
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:15,360
Speaker 1: that's about as good as you can say for the

692
00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:20,120
Speaker 1: Saints starting quarterback. Solid but not spectacular, multiple touchdowns in

693
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:23,560
Speaker 1: three or five games. Problem is, the Niners have allowed

694
00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:26,920
Speaker 1: two total touchdown passes in the last three games, and

695
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:29,120
Speaker 1: they're starting to get healthy at the right time, so

696
00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 1: Dalton is probably not start worthy. In a week with

697
00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:35,080
Speaker 1: thirty two teams playing, Chris O Lave gets the best

698
00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:39,760
Speaker 1: matchup of the wide receivers against Diamador Lenore, who's allowing

699
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 1: a passer rating of one oh one in his coverage.

700
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:44,640
Speaker 1: I'll give him a B O. Lave managed a hundred

701
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:47,920
Speaker 1: yards in a score last week, and despite Juwan Johnson

702
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:52,279
Speaker 1: scoring five touchdowns in his last five games, he Taysom Hill,

703
00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:54,839
Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry, and the rest of the Saints passing game

704
00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:57,000
Speaker 1: is on the bench. It's just not a very favorable

705
00:37:57,000 --> 00:37:59,960
Speaker 1: match up against the Niners. Over on the San Francis

706
00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:02,920
Speaker 1: go side, Christian McCaffrey, he gets an A grade. The

707
00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:05,480
Speaker 1: Saints have allowed the eighth most rushing yards this year,

708
00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:08,439
Speaker 1: and McCaffrey has scored a touchdown in three straight games

709
00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:11,200
Speaker 1: against New Orleans. Now, granted those were all with Carolina,

710
00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:15,440
Speaker 1: but here we go. Deebo Samuel still nursing a hamstring injury.

711
00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:18,800
Speaker 1: He's been limited in practice all week. He only played

712
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:21,800
Speaker 1: in fifty eight percent of the snaps last week, mostly

713
00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:24,120
Speaker 1: because the game script didn't really need him in there.

714
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 1: Against the Cardinals, he'll probably play, but if the Niners

715
00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:30,400
Speaker 1: are able to get up early, they might just ease

716
00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 1: off Debo in the second half altogether. So just a

717
00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:36,760
Speaker 1: C grade on Debo, and it's a very contrarian angle.

718
00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:39,520
Speaker 1: I just think that if they were up by that

719
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 1: much hasn't Debo already helped your team a lot, not

720
00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:45,759
Speaker 1: necessarily because Brandon I Yuke has been great, Christian McCaffrey

721
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:48,040
Speaker 1: is awesome. George Kittles had a great couple of games.

722
00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:50,520
Speaker 1: So I think that there's just other weapons there and

723
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:52,560
Speaker 1: Debo just might be the odd man out. They might

724
00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:55,000
Speaker 1: want to treat him with kid gloves, get him ready

725
00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:57,799
Speaker 1: for the playoff run. Brandon I Yuk I am giving

726
00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,000
Speaker 1: an eight grade to five scores in his past five

727
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:03,439
Speaker 1: of games. Eighty yards are a score in five straight games. Uh.

728
00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:07,279
Speaker 1: The Saints have been better against wide receivers lately, but

729
00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 1: they've played the Ravens without Bateman, the Rams without Cup,

730
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:13,280
Speaker 1: and the Steelers wide receiver groups in the last three weeks.

731
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:15,759
Speaker 1: The Saints are allowing the ninth most yards in the

732
00:39:15,760 --> 00:39:18,600
Speaker 1: eleventh most touchdowns per game, so it's a good matchup

733
00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 1: for wide receivers. George Kittle gets a C because the

734
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:24,440
Speaker 1: Saints are actually the best tight end defense in the

735
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:26,879
Speaker 1: league and it's not very close. They've only allowed one

736
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:29,520
Speaker 1: tight end score this year, and the best tight end

737
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:32,520
Speaker 1: day that anyone has had against the Saints was last week.

738
00:39:32,560 --> 00:39:34,799
Speaker 1: It was Tyler Higbee who was the only guy on

739
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:37,760
Speaker 1: the Rams roster. I'm pretty sure he had four catches

740
00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:40,600
Speaker 1: for forty five yards. That was the best day. Now

741
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:43,239
Speaker 1: Kittle is the best tight end they've faced, and he's

742
00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:45,640
Speaker 1: just coming off eighty four yards and two scores. So

743
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:49,240
Speaker 1: he's still startable here. But the matchups pretty tough. Jimmy

744
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:51,000
Speaker 1: G gets a C grade. It's the middle of the

745
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:53,959
Speaker 1: PAC matchup for him. The Saints do not intercept the ball.

746
00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:56,400
Speaker 1: That's good for Jimmy G. They've only got two on

747
00:39:56,480 --> 00:40:00,319
Speaker 1: the season, and Garoppolos coming off multiple touchdown game in

748
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:02,960
Speaker 1: five of his last six, so I like him with

749
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:05,560
Speaker 1: a C grade. Kind of closer to a bee than

750
00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:09,960
Speaker 1: a bench. Though that sounds like a C grade to me,

751
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:12,000
Speaker 1: it does a lot like a secret. I know. I'm

752
00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:16,160
Speaker 1: just giving you know, some context and layering to where

753
00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:19,640
Speaker 1: my C grade stands. All right, understood, I've got a

754
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:23,080
Speaker 1: couple of questions for you guys. From the Thursday Thanksgiving games,

755
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:27,960
Speaker 1: Ramondre Stevenson looked very good. But now Damien Harris, we

756
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:31,120
Speaker 1: don't know the full status of his injury situation. Harris

757
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 1: actually started that game. We we we loved Romandi Stevenson

758
00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:37,000
Speaker 1: when when Damian Harris was out like you know he was.

759
00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:40,560
Speaker 1: He was getting a grades most weeks when Harris was out.

760
00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:44,120
Speaker 1: Then Harris came back. Uh in the last couple of games,

761
00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:46,040
Speaker 1: he got a bunch of work. In fact, he was,

762
00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:48,839
Speaker 1: as I mentioned, starter on Thursday. But now it looks

763
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:51,240
Speaker 1: like he might be out again for a while. Where

764
00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:55,360
Speaker 1: is Ramondre Stevenson rest of season? Because I think I

765
00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:57,759
Speaker 1: think he's an RB one automatic start the rest of

766
00:40:57,800 --> 00:41:01,920
Speaker 1: the way, inside the top ten easily. I saw among

767
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:07,080
Speaker 1: all running backs he's fourth in target percentage only behind

768
00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:11,279
Speaker 1: like McCaffrey, Kamara and Ekeler and then they're there's Stevenson

769
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:14,040
Speaker 1: and they they're they're more of a run first team.

770
00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:15,719
Speaker 1: We didn't really see that on Thursday night, but they

771
00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:17,640
Speaker 1: were throwing to Stevenson a ton, So yeah, I mean

772
00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:21,800
Speaker 1: ten targets on Thursday. Harris is a fine player, went healthy,

773
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:23,480
Speaker 1: but it's getting to the point where it's like you

774
00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:26,080
Speaker 1: just gotta play Stevenson. He's like too good. He's just

775
00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:29,200
Speaker 1: too good. Yeah, I agree with everything you said. I

776
00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:32,400
Speaker 1: think Stevenson's probably six seven right in there at that

777
00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:34,279
Speaker 1: range for running backs you'd want the rest of the year,

778
00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:37,279
Speaker 1: right there talk to me about I'm on Ross St. Brown,

779
00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:41,719
Speaker 1: who's replicating last year's end of season tear right now

780
00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:46,799
Speaker 1: with another big game on Thursday night, and it looks like,

781
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 1: much like last year, this offense is going to go

782
00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:51,920
Speaker 1: through him. He's kind of a beast. Remember when Jared

783
00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:54,799
Speaker 1: Goff had Cooper Cup and just kept feeding Cooper Cup

784
00:41:54,880 --> 00:41:56,759
Speaker 1: the ball? I do. I think him on Ross St.

785
00:41:56,760 --> 00:41:59,719
Speaker 1: Brown his his new Cooper Cup. I think that this

786
00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:02,680
Speaker 1: ey's the limit for him right here, and he could

787
00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:05,560
Speaker 1: be And I think that I was saying in the break,

788
00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:08,080
Speaker 1: I think he's my number one wide receiver as we

789
00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:11,000
Speaker 1: head into draft season next year. So you're right now,

790
00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:13,520
Speaker 1: right now, I'm looking at the Monross st. Brown. I

791
00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:15,799
Speaker 1: think he's my number one wide receiver going into it

792
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:19,160
Speaker 1: for Justin Jefferson. Yeah, I think that he just gets

793
00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:21,839
Speaker 1: so much target share in Detroit. I think it's gonna

794
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:23,839
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be fun watching him. There's one

795
00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:26,359
Speaker 1: potential speed bump rest of the season and next year,

796
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:29,839
Speaker 1: and it's Jamison Williams. That's true, but that's gonna help

797
00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:33,000
Speaker 1: the whole offense too, so it might be great. Yeah,

798
00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:34,600
Speaker 1: I'm not saying it's gonna it's gonna hurt him more

799
00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:36,359
Speaker 1: than it's gonna help him. But and and they might

800
00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:38,680
Speaker 1: have a new quarterback in town next year to that

801
00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:44,040
Speaker 1: is possible. Dalton Schultz two touchdown game, looks healthy, looks

802
00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:45,800
Speaker 1: like a totally different player that we saw in the

803
00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:49,080
Speaker 1: first half of the season. Now with the dearth of

804
00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:52,200
Speaker 1: tight ends out there, where do you believe he ranks

805
00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:55,560
Speaker 1: a tight ends off top of the head? I mean

806
00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:58,680
Speaker 1: he's behind Kelsey of course, with Mark Andrews, and that's

807
00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:02,719
Speaker 1: about it until Alice Goddard comes back hopefully. Yeah, he's

808
00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:04,799
Speaker 1: definitely a top five I think rest of the way,

809
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:07,759
Speaker 1: I can't name anybody out of the other than those two. Well,

810
00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:10,600
Speaker 1: and really the things weren't working out because Doc was

811
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:13,479
Speaker 1: out or Dalton was out for those first first few

812
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:16,080
Speaker 1: games there. And now that they're both back and healthy,

813
00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:18,759
Speaker 1: he's he's being targeted in the red zone like just

814
00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:21,080
Speaker 1: all the time. You can throw Kiddle in that mix too,

815
00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:24,040
Speaker 1: of course, behind Kelsey obviously, but yeah, he's right up there.

816
00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:27,279
Speaker 1: What do you do if you're playing against any of

817
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:30,200
Speaker 1: the three guys that we just broke down Stevenson amand

818
00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:39,359
Speaker 1: Ross st Brown or Um Justin Jefferson. Well, if you're behind,

819
00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:41,640
Speaker 1: point of if you're behind by a lot heading into

820
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:44,319
Speaker 1: this weekend, how does it change your draft? How does

821
00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:46,799
Speaker 1: it change your lineup strategy for the weekend. I mean,

822
00:43:46,840 --> 00:43:49,319
Speaker 1: we kind of cover this every time a huge go

823
00:43:49,480 --> 00:43:52,439
Speaker 1: off game happens on a Thursday night. But you get

824
00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:55,200
Speaker 1: a little more risky with your with your decisions, not

825
00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:57,719
Speaker 1: not necessarily the safety. You go for the guy who

826
00:43:57,719 --> 00:44:00,520
Speaker 1: can get you a hundred and fifty yards and scores,

827
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:03,440
Speaker 1: but also might get you thirty and nothing, righte most

828
00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:06,640
Speaker 1: in a very juicy matchup as an auto starter, and

829
00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:08,920
Speaker 1: then try and pair a quarterback with the pass catcher,

830
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:11,719
Speaker 1: stack them up, hope hopefully the quarterback goes off to

831
00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:14,400
Speaker 1: to your guys. That's right. I think that's Those are

832
00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:17,279
Speaker 1: the two I think the two most straightforward strategies. If

833
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:20,400
Speaker 1: you're already down by thirty and get away from a

834
00:44:20,480 --> 00:44:22,920
Speaker 1: quarterback if the other team as a receiver for the

835
00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:25,920
Speaker 1: quarterback redvice first, you can't you can't afford to do

836
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:29,120
Speaker 1: that if you're Yeah, because then they both they both

837
00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:32,160
Speaker 1: go together. Yeah. Absolutely, it makes a ton of sense

838
00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:35,399
Speaker 1: as well. Our number two of Fantasy Football Weekly coming

843
00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:04,680
Speaker 1: It's our number two Fantasy football weekly. This is a

844
00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:07,440
Speaker 1: segment we like to call three tough questions. We encourage

845
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:09,440
Speaker 1: you to play along and see if you can go

846
00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:15,040
Speaker 1: three and oh. Tough question number one. Should we drop

847
00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:19,480
Speaker 1: Leonard four Net from our rosters? We begin with Matt Harrison.

848
00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:23,160
Speaker 1: I don't think so. He's still getting double digit touches

849
00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:25,680
Speaker 1: and basically every game, and he's getting run in the

850
00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:28,719
Speaker 1: red zone, which is most important. Uh. The interesting was

851
00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:31,080
Speaker 1: the snap count two carries last week for the Bucks.

852
00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:33,880
Speaker 1: For Net was only on the field for twenty two snaps.

853
00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:36,719
Speaker 1: That was only of the share, but he touched the

854
00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:40,120
Speaker 1: ball fifteen times and twenty two snaps. That's a pretty

855
00:45:40,160 --> 00:45:44,000
Speaker 1: heavy workload for only twenty two snaps. Uh. They have

856
00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:46,480
Speaker 1: some plays that they want to run with four NET.

857
00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:49,080
Speaker 1: That's what that means. They have some things that they're like,

858
00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:51,360
Speaker 1: this is a for Net play. This isn't a Rashod

859
00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:53,680
Speaker 1: White play, but good on ra shod White to really

860
00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:56,400
Speaker 1: take over the backfield and have the past protection lockdown.

861
00:45:56,760 --> 00:45:58,879
Speaker 1: That's the thing that rookies need to do, and he's

862
00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:00,960
Speaker 1: really done that. So I don't think it's ready to

863
00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:02,719
Speaker 1: drop for Net time the right. So you say no

864
00:46:02,960 --> 00:46:06,440
Speaker 1: on dropping four net, Brian Johnson, Are we dropping Leonard

865
00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:09,920
Speaker 1: four net? H screw it? I'll say yes. Basically, he

866
00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:12,600
Speaker 1: needs something to happen to Chad White to be a well,

867
00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:14,560
Speaker 1: you need to get healthy first and foremost. He's got

868
00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:17,400
Speaker 1: this hip issue. Um to Concerner, he's gonna go on

869
00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:19,720
Speaker 1: I R or anything like that. But he's been losing

870
00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:24,319
Speaker 1: snaps a week over week to Shad White, who both

871
00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:26,279
Speaker 1: Bucks backs aren't really doing anything on the ground. But

872
00:46:26,320 --> 00:46:29,000
Speaker 1: White's been a little better. He's a better pass catcher

873
00:46:29,360 --> 00:46:32,279
Speaker 1: and his snap percentage has been going up. So of

874
00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:36,560
Speaker 1: course there's a lot of stipulations like weeks eye, YadA, YadA, YadA,

875
00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:41,000
Speaker 1: but blanket statement, yes, drop Leonard for Nett, I originally

876
00:46:41,239 --> 00:46:44,640
Speaker 1: authored this question to say, sabotage drop Leonard four Nette.

877
00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:46,560
Speaker 1: But I don't even know if this is the sabotage

878
00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:49,960
Speaker 1: criteria because I don't know that anybody's gonna be like

879
00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:53,560
Speaker 1: Leonard four net. I'm not gonna pick him up and

880
00:46:53,560 --> 00:46:55,919
Speaker 1: put him in my lineup. I don't think anybody's gonna

881
00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:58,399
Speaker 1: don't think anybody's that done. Nobody's gonna drop like all

882
00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:00,839
Speaker 1: their fab on Leonard four net. For no, they're not.

883
00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:04,319
Speaker 1: He is a backup running back on an offense that

884
00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:09,200
Speaker 1: ranks twenty seventh in points, dead last in rushing yards,

885
00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:13,240
Speaker 1: dead last in rushing touchdowns, and dead last in yards

886
00:47:13,239 --> 00:47:17,840
Speaker 1: per carry. And he's the backup behind that team. Shod

887
00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:20,640
Speaker 1: White hasn't looked a lot better. Granted a little better,

888
00:47:20,719 --> 00:47:23,520
Speaker 1: not a lot better. But if you're the Bucks, you

889
00:47:23,640 --> 00:47:25,719
Speaker 1: know exactly what you've got in Leonard four net and

890
00:47:25,719 --> 00:47:28,240
Speaker 1: it's not working. So I think we've got a long

891
00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:31,279
Speaker 1: runway on Rashad White to see if it turns out

892
00:47:31,320 --> 00:47:33,960
Speaker 1: he can develop and to provide Tampa with some upside

893
00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:37,600
Speaker 1: that four net clearly isn't providing. And four net is

894
00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:39,759
Speaker 1: just he's just a name on the on the back

895
00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:42,319
Speaker 1: of a jersey that you recognize at this point. But so,

896
00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:45,240
Speaker 1: the Bucks are the worst offering rushing offense in the NFL.

897
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:50,319
Speaker 1: The second worst rushing offense is the Rams. Would you

898
00:47:50,440 --> 00:47:55,520
Speaker 1: roster the Rams backup running back Kyren Williams right now

899
00:47:55,560 --> 00:47:57,920
Speaker 1: in the hopes that he becomes the number one. Look

900
00:47:57,960 --> 00:48:01,080
Speaker 1: at their playoff run. You want both Cam Akers and

901
00:48:01,200 --> 00:48:04,400
Speaker 1: Kirraen Williams both stashed deep on your bench for that

902
00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:07,200
Speaker 1: playoff run because if one figures it out, that's fun.

903
00:48:07,239 --> 00:48:09,400
Speaker 1: We're gonna drop Leonard four Nett and you go pick

904
00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:12,640
Speaker 1: up Kiren william There you go. You are so inclined tough.

905
00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:16,200
Speaker 1: Question number two, what is the appropriate level of concern

906
00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:22,320
Speaker 1: for Lamar Jackson? Is it none, some or a bowl

907
00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:28,120
Speaker 1: loosening level of existential dread? Brian, I'm not blowed on

908
00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:31,400
Speaker 1: l Jack's just yet, but I am somewhat concerned. As

909
00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:35,160
Speaker 1: you mentioned earlier in the show, Jackson total twelve touchdowns

910
00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:37,799
Speaker 1: from week one through Week three. Since then, he has

911
00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:40,719
Speaker 1: total just seven, which is a Yeah, You've been better

912
00:48:40,719 --> 00:48:43,160
Speaker 1: off benching Jackson in most cases, but I like you

913
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:47,360
Speaker 1: this week against Jacksonville. Denver is tough in Week thirteen,

914
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:50,400
Speaker 1: or should be tough, but that's a home game at

915
00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:53,200
Speaker 1: least for the Ravens. But Jackson will see Pittsburgh twice

916
00:48:54,239 --> 00:48:56,280
Speaker 1: the rest of the way in weeks fourteen, in weeks

917
00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:59,040
Speaker 1: and in weeks seventeen and picked Pittsburgh has been the

918
00:48:59,080 --> 00:49:02,560
Speaker 1: fifth easiest team UH for quarterbacks to face. So I'm

919
00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:06,120
Speaker 1: somewhat concerned, but I'm not blowed on l Jacks. Matt,

920
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:08,880
Speaker 1: What is the appropriate level of concern for Lamar Jackson?

921
00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:14,439
Speaker 1: Is it none, some, or blowed? I don't think I've

922
00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:18,879
Speaker 1: ever answered blowed and one of these questions not maybe

923
00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:23,240
Speaker 1: just I'm just calm, I'm cool. I have no concern

924
00:49:23,320 --> 00:49:26,080
Speaker 1: on Lamar Jackson. By the way. He's still doing enough

925
00:49:26,120 --> 00:49:28,239
Speaker 1: on the ground to keep you and float afloat. And

926
00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:30,880
Speaker 1: that's why you drafted Lamar for the rushing numbers, and

927
00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:33,520
Speaker 1: the passing is really gravy for Lamar. He's ran for

928
00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:36,440
Speaker 1: at least fifty eight yards or a rushing score in

929
00:49:36,560 --> 00:49:39,800
Speaker 1: eight of his last nine games. That that's six points

930
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:42,640
Speaker 1: right off the top. They're just on the running at least.

931
00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:45,719
Speaker 1: So I don't have concern about Lamar Jackson. This is

932
00:49:45,760 --> 00:49:48,640
Speaker 1: who he is. You get the passing scores when Mark

933
00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:51,080
Speaker 1: Andrews gets going and gets hot, then he gets the

934
00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:54,360
Speaker 1: spike week games. But he's getting you, you know, fifty

935
00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:57,720
Speaker 1: points in a standard league every week. The correct answer

936
00:49:57,840 --> 00:50:01,520
Speaker 1: is some for Lamar Jackson some level of concern. Since

937
00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:06,719
Speaker 1: Week four, he's quarterback twenty in scoring twenty, averaging one

938
00:50:06,800 --> 00:50:10,120
Speaker 1: hundred seventy five passing yards and zero point eight passing

939
00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:13,080
Speaker 1: touchdowns per game. Sure does the rushing help the sixty

940
00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:16,719
Speaker 1: yards he's averaging sixty yards per game? Well, okay, that's

941
00:50:16,760 --> 00:50:19,600
Speaker 1: six fantasy points. But the problem is the passing is

942
00:50:19,600 --> 00:50:21,840
Speaker 1: giving you not giving you any other points to go

943
00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:24,040
Speaker 1: with it, or very few other points to go with it.

944
00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:26,919
Speaker 1: He's only scored one rushing touchdown in the last seven games,

945
00:50:26,960 --> 00:50:30,040
Speaker 1: and when Gus Edwards returns, Edwards is going to vacuum

946
00:50:30,120 --> 00:50:32,719
Speaker 1: up all the short rushing scores for Shot Bateman. Done

947
00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:35,000
Speaker 1: for the year. He's got the worst set of receivers

948
00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:38,560
Speaker 1: in the league, and the schedule it's so so. A

949
00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:41,160
Speaker 1: couple of positive matchups left Pittsburgh in Atlanta, the rest

950
00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:43,480
Speaker 1: of its neutral are bad. There's not much to like

951
00:50:43,680 --> 00:50:49,200
Speaker 1: with Lamar Jackson. Appropriate level of concern is some tough

952
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:52,760
Speaker 1: question number three? What is the appropriate level of concern

953
00:50:52,880 --> 00:50:57,200
Speaker 1: for Alvin Kamara? Is it none, some, or a bowel

954
00:50:57,239 --> 00:51:01,839
Speaker 1: loosening level of existential dread. I definitely have some concern here.

955
00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:04,399
Speaker 1: I'll mention some of the stats in the matchup. Well,

956
00:51:04,440 --> 00:51:06,920
Speaker 1: I did already, but he's just not faring well against

957
00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:09,640
Speaker 1: good run defenses. Against San Francisco this week in Tampa

958
00:51:09,719 --> 00:51:13,240
Speaker 1: next week, there are both borderline bench grades for Camara.

959
00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:15,799
Speaker 1: Then he has a Week fourteen buy, so it's tough

960
00:51:15,840 --> 00:51:19,000
Speaker 1: to start him for three straight weeks. But after that

961
00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:22,719
Speaker 1: the Fantasy playoffs look better. Atlanta in week fifteen and

962
00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:26,319
Speaker 1: Cleveland in week sixteen are both very positive matchups, and

963
00:51:26,360 --> 00:51:29,719
Speaker 1: he exploded against a similarly bad defense the Raiders in

964
00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:32,960
Speaker 1: the recent past. So it's a two pronged answer to

965
00:51:33,040 --> 00:51:37,600
Speaker 1: this charch um. If you're dependent on Camara to get

966
00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:41,080
Speaker 1: you into the Fantasy playoffs right now, it's it's full

967
00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:44,279
Speaker 1: blowed because he's not going to get you there. Well,

968
00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:47,160
Speaker 1: it's it's we're still like four weeks out of the

969
00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:50,160
Speaker 1: Fantasy three weeks for away from the Fantasy playoffs, you've

970
00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:53,200
Speaker 1: got three weeks left. Most people still need wins. If

971
00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:55,160
Speaker 1: you if you're solid and you're you're gonna be in,

972
00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:57,680
Speaker 1: and you know you're gonna be in, then it's just some.

973
00:51:58,280 --> 00:52:00,640
Speaker 1: But if you need him to get in, was he

974
00:52:00,640 --> 00:52:08,040
Speaker 1: answered some or is it blow slowed? You're okay? You

975
00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:12,200
Speaker 1: can't you care if you can't give two answers. Brian

976
00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:15,879
Speaker 1: the appropriate level of concern for Alvin Kamara none, Some

977
00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:19,360
Speaker 1: or blowed based on where he was going in drafts

978
00:52:19,400 --> 00:52:22,120
Speaker 1: in late summer, which was basically before Nick Chubb and

979
00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:25,959
Speaker 1: some other big names. I'm I'm blowed on Camara. All

980
00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:28,400
Speaker 1: of his touchdowns came in one game. I was against

981
00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:32,120
Speaker 1: the Raiders a few weeks ago, and Matt mentioned the schedule.

982
00:52:32,440 --> 00:52:34,839
Speaker 1: It's not as good as he thinks it is, at

983
00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:38,680
Speaker 1: least in my opinion. San Francisco, Tampa Bay, Atlanta, Cleveland,

984
00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:41,480
Speaker 1: and Philly. Yes, Atlanta is the good matchup, but that's

985
00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:44,480
Speaker 1: the only home game during that stretch. The rest is

986
00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:48,040
Speaker 1: on the road on grass or turf, but not the

987
00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:51,680
Speaker 1: fast turf. And really the home game against Atlanta, it's

988
00:52:51,880 --> 00:52:53,880
Speaker 1: Atlanta plays an Adul. That's the one away game you

989
00:52:53,880 --> 00:53:00,160
Speaker 1: would rather have have based on that schedule. So it's

990
00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:03,879
Speaker 1: Week sixteen. I don't know, I don't I don't love it.

991
00:53:03,880 --> 00:53:07,239
Speaker 1: It's not a stopper, but I'll be at blow. He's

992
00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:10,200
Speaker 1: been he's been bad. I don't even think this was

993
00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:12,600
Speaker 1: I don't even think this was close. If you took

994
00:53:12,680 --> 00:53:14,920
Speaker 1: his name Remember I said earlier that letter for nets

995
00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:17,200
Speaker 1: just a name, you know, on the back of a jersey.

996
00:53:17,360 --> 00:53:20,640
Speaker 1: If you took that name off his box score, you

997
00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:24,680
Speaker 1: wouldn't even consider starting Alvin Kamara. Most weeks he's giving

998
00:53:24,719 --> 00:53:28,040
Speaker 1: you nothing, and he's getting worse. Over his last four games,

999
00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:31,239
Speaker 1: averaging three point four yards per carry. He hasn't even

1000
00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:34,360
Speaker 1: topped sixty three rushing yards in any game he has.

1001
00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:36,359
Speaker 1: I think, to my eyes, one and a half good

1002
00:53:36,400 --> 00:53:38,680
Speaker 1: matchups left. You guys just talked about these, and he's

1003
00:53:38,719 --> 00:53:41,759
Speaker 1: basically unstartable. The next three weeks, Matt touched on this

1004
00:53:42,080 --> 00:53:45,840
Speaker 1: San Francisco Tampa by the Saints. Battered offensive line ranks

1005
00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:48,600
Speaker 1: twenty five, So that doesn't seem to be something where

1006
00:53:48,640 --> 00:53:50,240
Speaker 1: you can go, well, that line is gonna just suddenly

1007
00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:53,160
Speaker 1: start dominating in open holes. Not gonna happen. If you

1008
00:53:53,200 --> 00:53:57,280
Speaker 1: don't already have a massive case of blowed you should

1009
00:53:57,280 --> 00:54:04,360
Speaker 1: now with Alvin Camaron, it's working a matchup Cincinnati takes

1010
00:54:04,400 --> 00:54:09,160
Speaker 1: on Tennessee. Brian, You've seen the Cincinnati offense look better lately,

1011
00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:13,000
Speaker 1: but no Joe Mixon in this game. Fascinated to think

1012
00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:16,480
Speaker 1: what find out what you think about somaj P Ryan's

1013
00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:20,799
Speaker 1: matchup without Joe Mixon coming off a two touchdown game.

1014
00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:22,759
Speaker 1: I believe it was a three touchdown was the three

1015
00:54:23,120 --> 00:54:27,919
Speaker 1: r three receiving touchdowns susdown game? Multiple touchdown game. Their

1016
00:54:27,960 --> 00:54:31,040
Speaker 1: bases are covered. But yeah, it's you're excited if you

1017
00:54:31,160 --> 00:54:33,080
Speaker 1: got p Ryan on roster, but you want to pump

1018
00:54:33,120 --> 00:54:34,920
Speaker 1: the brakes this week just a little bit. I'm just

1019
00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:37,279
Speaker 1: giving him a c here, even with Joe Mixon ruled out.

1020
00:54:37,320 --> 00:54:39,839
Speaker 1: As you mentioned charge, the Titans are a tough draw

1021
00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:42,160
Speaker 1: off running backs. They're allowing just a hundred and five

1022
00:54:42,200 --> 00:54:45,560
Speaker 1: combo yards and zero point two touchdowns per game to

1023
00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:48,759
Speaker 1: the position. That means they've given up two total touchdowns

1024
00:54:48,760 --> 00:54:51,000
Speaker 1: to running backs this season. The last running back to

1025
00:54:51,160 --> 00:54:54,600
Speaker 1: rushed for a touchdown against Tennessee was se Kwon Barkley

1026
00:54:54,600 --> 00:54:57,200
Speaker 1: in Week one. Wow. So it's a brutal matchup, but

1027
00:54:57,320 --> 00:55:00,440
Speaker 1: you obviously have to start p Ryan, who will see

1028
00:55:00,480 --> 00:55:03,279
Speaker 1: the Lion's share of work out of since his backfield.

1029
00:55:03,440 --> 00:55:05,440
Speaker 1: I should I should have said the Bengals share of

1030
00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:08,719
Speaker 1: working There we go. Yeah, Hey, the Titans have given

1031
00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:11,600
Speaker 1: up the most receptions to opposing backs though, and that's

1032
00:55:11,680 --> 00:55:13,520
Speaker 1: kind of p Ryan's bread and butter. That's how he

1033
00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:16,080
Speaker 1: scored all of his touchdowns last week. Fair point, You're

1034
00:55:16,080 --> 00:55:19,280
Speaker 1: certainly gonna start him, but you don't expect three receiving touchdowns.

1035
00:55:19,280 --> 00:55:24,960
Speaker 1: But if that okay, I don't expect now what. We

1036
00:55:25,000 --> 00:55:27,680
Speaker 1: don't really know what to expect from Jamaar Chase. He's

1037
00:55:27,719 --> 00:55:31,560
Speaker 1: been practicing all week. On Friday, he was seen running

1038
00:55:31,600 --> 00:55:35,799
Speaker 1: red zone routes. You like to hear that, um, but

1039
00:55:36,040 --> 00:55:37,960
Speaker 1: it's his status is still up in the air. It

1040
00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:40,360
Speaker 1: looks like he'll be a game time decision to to

1041
00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:42,879
Speaker 1: return from that hip injury. If he goes, I'll give

1042
00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:45,399
Speaker 1: him a C. The Titans are top five and the

1043
00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:49,640
Speaker 1: most catches and touchdowns surrendered to wide receivers UH this season.

1044
00:55:49,680 --> 00:55:52,080
Speaker 1: These teams met in the divisual round Divisional round of

1045
00:55:52,080 --> 00:55:54,600
Speaker 1: the playoffs last year. If you recall, Chase had five

1046
00:55:54,640 --> 00:55:56,440
Speaker 1: catches for a hundred nine yards in that game. So

1047
00:55:56,480 --> 00:55:58,080
Speaker 1: if he if he returns, I give him the SEA

1048
00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:01,320
Speaker 1: now over the other two wide receivers. Of course, Chase's

1049
00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:03,560
Speaker 1: status will affect both of these grades. If he comes

1050
00:56:03,600 --> 00:56:06,239
Speaker 1: back Jamar Chase, I'll give t Higgins a B. If

1051
00:56:06,320 --> 00:56:08,880
Speaker 1: Chase does not return, I'll give Higgins the A with

1052
00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:12,360
Speaker 1: Chase sidelined, Higgins saw target totals of six, eight, and thirteen,

1053
00:56:12,520 --> 00:56:14,960
Speaker 1: so he didn't really see a huge spike and looks

1054
00:56:14,960 --> 00:56:18,280
Speaker 1: with Chase on the sideline. UM. But Chase's return probably

1055
00:56:18,320 --> 00:56:21,560
Speaker 1: helps Higgins more than it hurts. But I just mentioned

1056
00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:24,000
Speaker 1: the Titans are top five in the most of everything

1057
00:56:24,080 --> 00:56:27,680
Speaker 1: surrender to wide receivers, So Higgins is a strong play. Uh.

1058
00:56:27,760 --> 00:56:30,160
Speaker 1: He had seven catches for for ninety six yards in

1059
00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:32,560
Speaker 1: that playoff game with the Titans last year. Now over

1060
00:56:32,640 --> 00:56:35,640
Speaker 1: to Tyler Boyd. I got him on the bench if

1061
00:56:35,719 --> 00:56:38,200
Speaker 1: if Jamaar Chase comes back. In the games without Chase,

1062
00:56:38,200 --> 00:56:40,480
Speaker 1: Boyd is in the three games without Chase, Boyd is

1063
00:56:40,520 --> 00:56:43,359
Speaker 1: total just ten catches for yards. And now we all

1064
00:56:43,400 --> 00:56:45,479
Speaker 1: thought that we all thought of those extra those extra

1065
00:56:45,520 --> 00:56:47,839
Speaker 1: targets would largely go to Tyler Boyd and it hasn't

1066
00:56:47,880 --> 00:56:49,720
Speaker 1: worked out that way at all. Yeah, he did score

1067
00:56:49,719 --> 00:56:52,799
Speaker 1: a touchdown during that three game span. Um. Again, it's

1068
00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:54,920
Speaker 1: a great matchup on paper. So if Chase is out,

1069
00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:57,040
Speaker 1: I'll give Boyd the sea. But if Chase comes back,

1070
00:56:57,080 --> 00:56:59,239
Speaker 1: I got Boyd on the bench. And each of the

1071
00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:02,080
Speaker 1: last two games of the titans last two games, though,

1072
00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:04,960
Speaker 1: three different wide receivers totaled at least fifty yards, so

1073
00:57:06,080 --> 00:57:08,160
Speaker 1: that would if you're in a it's a tough one

1074
00:57:08,200 --> 00:57:12,399
Speaker 1: with Boyd. Uh, definitely a start. If Chase sits, I'm

1075
00:57:12,400 --> 00:57:14,640
Speaker 1: gonna I'm holding with the bench grade if Chase comes

1076
00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:16,920
Speaker 1: back for Boyd. He only had two catches for seventeen

1077
00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:19,760
Speaker 1: yards in that playoff game against the Titans last year,

1078
00:57:20,160 --> 00:57:23,680
Speaker 1: and over to the tight end for the Bengals Hayden Hurst.

1079
00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:26,160
Speaker 1: He doesn't have a single game this season with over

1080
00:57:26,280 --> 00:57:28,840
Speaker 1: fifty receiving yards, and he hasn't found the end zone

1081
00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:32,080
Speaker 1: since Week five. Also, the Titans have allowed just two

1082
00:57:32,080 --> 00:57:34,840
Speaker 1: receptions to tight ends and each of their past two games,

1083
00:57:35,120 --> 00:57:37,480
Speaker 1: and the aven't allowed a tight end touchdown since Week four.

1084
00:57:37,520 --> 00:57:39,480
Speaker 1: So I got Hurst on the bench even in the

1085
00:57:39,520 --> 00:57:42,680
Speaker 1: tight end wasteland, but it's certainly not benching Joe Burrow.

1086
00:57:42,760 --> 00:57:46,720
Speaker 1: Regardless of Jamaar Chase returning or not. Tennessee owns the

1087
00:57:46,800 --> 00:57:50,160
Speaker 1: highest opponent passing play percentage in the league, and as

1088
00:57:50,160 --> 00:57:52,720
Speaker 1: a result, they have surrendered these second most passing yards

1089
00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:57,000
Speaker 1: and passing touchdowns to quarterbacks despite already having their by

1090
00:57:57,000 --> 00:57:59,000
Speaker 1: Burrow did not throw a touchdown in that playoff game.

1091
00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:01,920
Speaker 1: I've mentioned a few times, but he did have eight yards.

1092
00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:04,440
Speaker 1: So I've got an A on Joe Burrow over the

1093
00:58:04,480 --> 00:58:08,400
Speaker 1: Titan side, easy A for Derrick Henry. Since Week eight,

1094
00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:12,560
Speaker 1: Henry has five rushing touchdowns. He's averaged a rushing touchdown

1095
00:58:13,160 --> 00:58:16,520
Speaker 1: per every nineteen carries during that span, which is very good.

1096
00:58:16,880 --> 00:58:19,600
Speaker 1: During that same span, the Bengals have allowed a rushing

1097
00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:24,720
Speaker 1: touchdown per every fourteen carries. So that math is adding

1098
00:58:24,800 --> 00:58:27,240
Speaker 1: up to uh, it's a very good chance Derrick Henry

1099
00:58:27,240 --> 00:58:30,040
Speaker 1: scores at least one touchdown in this game. He had

1100
00:58:30,040 --> 00:58:32,720
Speaker 1: twenty carries for sixty two yards and a touchdown against

1101
00:58:32,760 --> 00:58:34,560
Speaker 1: the Bengals in that Divisional round game, and he had

1102
00:58:34,560 --> 00:58:37,080
Speaker 1: a metal plate sticking out of his foot for that one.

1103
00:58:37,120 --> 00:58:39,120
Speaker 1: So I like Henry and this one he gets literally

1104
00:58:39,160 --> 00:58:42,560
Speaker 1: sticking out of his foot, probably pretty close. He probably

1105
00:58:42,520 --> 00:58:48,200
Speaker 1: need another surgery. It was fresh steel, very fresh steel.

1106
00:58:49,640 --> 00:58:53,439
Speaker 1: Over to the wide receivers trail on Burks. I'm gonna

1107
00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:55,560
Speaker 1: give him a B. Last week. Yeah, he led the

1108
00:58:55,560 --> 00:58:59,560
Speaker 1: Titans and targets, receptions and yards. Posting the first game

1109
00:58:59,600 --> 00:59:02,080
Speaker 1: of his career year. It won't be his last. It

1110
00:59:02,160 --> 00:59:04,440
Speaker 1: might not happen this week, as the Bengals will allowed

1111
00:59:04,440 --> 00:59:06,680
Speaker 1: just two receivers to go for a hundred plus yards,

1112
00:59:06,720 --> 00:59:10,120
Speaker 1: but they have surrendered a wide receiver touchdown in five

1113
00:59:10,200 --> 00:59:12,520
Speaker 1: straight games, So if a wide receiver is gonna score

1114
00:59:12,520 --> 00:59:14,720
Speaker 1: a touchdown for the Titans, that's gonna be trail on.

1115
00:59:14,760 --> 00:59:17,320
Speaker 1: Burke's I got Robert Woods on the bench finally had

1116
00:59:17,360 --> 00:59:19,520
Speaker 1: a decent showing last week. But the Bengals are only

1117
00:59:19,520 --> 00:59:21,680
Speaker 1: allowing ten catches per game to wide receivers, and if

1118
00:59:21,680 --> 00:59:24,960
Speaker 1: we're going to start a Titans receiver, it's Burke's. I

1119
00:59:25,000 --> 00:59:27,160
Speaker 1: will give Austin Hooper a C grade coming off this

1120
00:59:27,240 --> 00:59:29,520
Speaker 1: big game. The Bengals are allowing five catches for fifty

1121
00:59:29,560 --> 00:59:32,200
Speaker 1: yards per game uh two tight ends, and last week

1122
00:59:32,240 --> 00:59:35,640
Speaker 1: they yielded fifteen targets to Pittsburgh's tight end, so Hooper

1123
00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:39,640
Speaker 1: should see some opportunities here. End and Ryan Tannhill I

1124
00:59:39,680 --> 00:59:41,320
Speaker 1: like his matchup this week. US might take a chance

1125
00:59:41,400 --> 00:59:44,880
Speaker 1: let me quarterback. Yeah, well done, Rams take on Kansas City.

1126
00:59:44,960 --> 00:59:47,840
Speaker 1: We come back find out if for the first time

1127
00:59:47,880 --> 00:59:50,040
Speaker 1: in I don't know, maybe the history of this show,

1128
00:59:50,960 --> 00:59:54,200
Speaker 1: are there no Rams to start find out? When we

1129
00:59:54,240 --> 01:00:33,320
Speaker 1: come back to Fantasy Football Weekly, Yah, Welcome back Fantasy

1130
01:00:33,320 --> 01:00:38,120
Speaker 1: Football Weekly, Poltiarchi, Matt Harrison, Brian Johnson with you Rams

1131
01:00:38,160 --> 01:00:40,720
Speaker 1: take on the Kansas City Chiefs. As I mentioned going

1132
01:00:40,760 --> 01:00:46,200
Speaker 1: into our break, the Rams do not have anybody to start.

1133
01:00:46,320 --> 01:00:48,919
Speaker 1: There's an official is easy. He's on the bench. Game.

1134
01:00:49,080 --> 01:00:52,920
Speaker 1: Everyone is on the bench. Bryce Perkins is your starting quarterback,

1135
01:00:53,600 --> 01:00:59,680
Speaker 1: backed up by Case Cookus, Coocus, Case Cookers, Tase Cookus

1136
01:00:59,720 --> 01:01:02,920
Speaker 1: maybe very well making an appearance in this game because

1137
01:01:03,040 --> 01:01:05,560
Speaker 1: Bryce Perkins is playing behind an offensive line that is

1138
01:01:05,600 --> 01:01:09,720
Speaker 1: starting their ninth, tenth and eleventh string offensive lineman. He

1139
01:01:09,760 --> 01:01:12,080
Speaker 1: could we could actually we could see Bryce Perkins get

1140
01:01:12,080 --> 01:01:15,240
Speaker 1: beaten into the ground and get Case Cookus into the game.

1141
01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:19,360
Speaker 1: Bryce Bryce Perkins had a sneaky thirty nine rushing yards

1142
01:01:19,440 --> 01:01:23,080
Speaker 1: last week. That that's that's that's the upside. There so

1143
01:01:23,200 --> 01:01:25,720
Speaker 1: no starters on this Rams team, and I was trying

1144
01:01:25,760 --> 01:01:28,440
Speaker 1: to figure out the last time that maybe we had

1145
01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:30,680
Speaker 1: a matchup in the history of the show which there

1146
01:01:30,720 --> 01:01:35,280
Speaker 1: were no starters. In twenty eleven, the Rams were a

1147
01:01:35,320 --> 01:01:40,000
Speaker 1: to win operation. Steven Jackson was there and he had

1148
01:01:40,120 --> 01:01:43,200
Speaker 1: he put up a yard season, so I gotta believe

1149
01:01:43,240 --> 01:01:45,920
Speaker 1: he was pretty much a starter every week he was okay,

1150
01:01:45,960 --> 01:01:49,560
Speaker 1: So it's possible. If not, then it's possible. The history,

1151
01:01:49,640 --> 01:01:52,800
Speaker 1: the twenty whatever eight year history of the show, we've

1152
01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:55,120
Speaker 1: never said bench all Rams. Well, it had to be

1153
01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:59,480
Speaker 1: pretty Kurt Warner for sure. That's old old St. Louis Rams.

1154
01:02:00,040 --> 01:02:03,320
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe that's it. I don't know, I don't think.

1155
01:02:03,400 --> 01:02:04,440
Speaker 1: I don't even know if I have to go into

1156
01:02:04,480 --> 01:02:06,760
Speaker 1: any detail on any of this stuff. But you know

1157
01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:09,800
Speaker 1: we had Allen Robinson was unstartable when he had Matthew

1158
01:02:09,840 --> 01:02:13,240
Speaker 1: Stafford as his quarterback, and Cam Akers is dead last

1159
01:02:13,280 --> 01:02:16,600
Speaker 1: and rushing efficiency and yards, Tyler Higby is the closest

1160
01:02:16,680 --> 01:02:19,720
Speaker 1: Ram to a starting grade, and Perkins through to him

1161
01:02:19,760 --> 01:02:22,840
Speaker 1: three times last week. He's not healthy, and the Chiefs

1162
01:02:22,840 --> 01:02:26,400
Speaker 1: are a good tight end defense. There's nobody to start

1163
01:02:26,560 --> 01:02:29,360
Speaker 1: all the Rams on the bench. I will demand a

1164
01:02:29,360 --> 01:02:31,840
Speaker 1: peacock from my Allen Robinson take on last week. Though

1165
01:02:33,080 --> 01:02:35,320
Speaker 1: not a good game, I will yield to your demand.

1166
01:02:35,440 --> 01:02:39,000
Speaker 1: Thank you. Let's go to the Kansas City side every week.

1167
01:02:39,040 --> 01:02:42,320
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelsey obvious a's and especially coming off

1168
01:02:42,320 --> 01:02:45,160
Speaker 1: the performance from last week, Holy cow, Judus miss Schuster

1169
01:02:45,200 --> 01:02:47,200
Speaker 1: expected to play in this game. Yeah, they took him

1170
01:02:47,200 --> 01:02:49,640
Speaker 1: off the injury report just recently. I like it. The

1171
01:02:49,680 --> 01:02:53,480
Speaker 1: fantasy funds he was at that game too, the fantasy actual,

1172
01:02:56,480 --> 01:02:59,800
Speaker 1: the real fun. Henry Winkler himself. He seems like he'd

1173
01:02:59,800 --> 01:03:01,760
Speaker 1: be one of the great actors to hang out with.

1174
01:03:02,160 --> 01:03:04,680
Speaker 1: He seems like a cool guy. Absolutely, well, he was

1175
01:03:05,720 --> 01:03:09,120
Speaker 1: literally the coolest guy ever in hindsight. Wasn't he kind

1176
01:03:09,160 --> 01:03:12,640
Speaker 1: of a d bag? Though? No? No, no, everybody says

1177
01:03:12,680 --> 01:03:15,000
Speaker 1: he's the nicest guy in Hollywood. No, I'm talking just

1178
01:03:15,040 --> 01:03:17,840
Speaker 1: about the Fonzie character like he was. I don't know,

1179
01:03:17,840 --> 01:03:20,360
Speaker 1: I don't want. I mean he lived in the Cunningham's garage.

1180
01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:24,560
Speaker 1: He did not need to live there. In the three

1181
01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:27,360
Speaker 1: games prior to Juju's injury, he was averaging a hundred

1182
01:03:27,400 --> 01:03:30,680
Speaker 1: eight yards per game and reached pay dirt twice. He

1183
01:03:30,720 --> 01:03:34,120
Speaker 1: will face the hollow shell of the cornerback once known

1184
01:03:34,560 --> 01:03:39,560
Speaker 1: as Jalen Ramsey. Ramsey's allowing a career worst one hundred

1185
01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:42,760
Speaker 1: seventeen passer rating in his coverage and he's given up

1186
01:03:42,800 --> 01:03:46,960
Speaker 1: at least seventy one receiving yards in three straight games.

1187
01:03:47,160 --> 01:03:49,760
Speaker 1: When Juju lines up in the slot, he'll face Troy Hill,

1188
01:03:49,920 --> 01:03:52,040
Speaker 1: who's giving up a passer rating of a hundred and three.

1189
01:03:52,160 --> 01:03:55,280
Speaker 1: So no what, no matter where Juju is, he's got

1190
01:03:55,280 --> 01:04:00,280
Speaker 1: a strong individual matchup B grade. Juju Smith Schuster Ka

1191
01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:02,440
Speaker 1: Darius Tony not expected to play in this game, and

1192
01:04:02,680 --> 01:04:05,120
Speaker 1: we'll keep him on the bench in MVS. I'm a

1193
01:04:05,120 --> 01:04:08,440
Speaker 1: little bitter because he flopped badly last week and I

1194
01:04:08,480 --> 01:04:11,840
Speaker 1: was really excited. That's the fantasy mongoose right there. He

1195
01:04:12,040 --> 01:04:15,480
Speaker 1: eats the peacock. That's what we mongoose, the natural. How

1196
01:04:15,480 --> 01:04:19,800
Speaker 1: about you just eat some crow church, Yeah, maybe it's oh,

1197
01:04:19,880 --> 01:04:22,560
Speaker 1: there we go. Thank you very much. I gave you.

1198
01:04:22,720 --> 01:04:25,200
Speaker 1: I gave you a C grade and MVS last week

1199
01:04:25,240 --> 01:04:27,840
Speaker 1: and he was terrible. So he's lost all I've lost

1200
01:04:27,840 --> 01:04:30,200
Speaker 1: all faith. He's off. Half of his last six games

1201
01:04:30,240 --> 01:04:32,520
Speaker 1: have been zero or one catch. That is way too

1202
01:04:32,600 --> 01:04:34,840
Speaker 1: much risk for me. Let's go to the running backs.

1203
01:04:35,520 --> 01:04:41,760
Speaker 1: Isaiah Pacheco hundred seven yards last week, the most by

1204
01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:44,160
Speaker 1: a Kansas City running back in how long do you

1205
01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:49,560
Speaker 1: think Kareem Hunt was there? Maybe forty two games? Since

1206
01:04:49,600 --> 01:04:52,800
Speaker 1: some running backs at a hundred seven yards for Kansas City.

1207
01:04:53,200 --> 01:04:55,560
Speaker 1: Clyde Edwards a layer now on I R. So the

1208
01:04:55,600 --> 01:04:59,280
Speaker 1: ground game is totally his tough matchup against a Rams

1209
01:04:59,320 --> 01:05:02,800
Speaker 1: team allowing the seventh fewest rushing yards and the seventh

1210
01:05:02,800 --> 01:05:05,920
Speaker 1: fewest touchdowns per game. No back has hit one hundred

1211
01:05:05,960 --> 01:05:09,760
Speaker 1: receiving yards. Uh at well rush no back is at

1212
01:05:09,800 --> 01:05:13,040
Speaker 1: one hundred rushing yards against the Rams. The last three

1213
01:05:13,160 --> 01:05:16,960
Speaker 1: leadbacks to face the Rams ran for nineteen yards, sixty

1214
01:05:16,960 --> 01:05:19,560
Speaker 1: eight yards, and forty two yards and three yards per carry.

1215
01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:22,000
Speaker 1: There's still a great Rams defense, but the Rams evens

1216
01:05:22,000 --> 01:05:24,640
Speaker 1: are gonna be on the field a lot because their

1217
01:05:24,680 --> 01:05:28,000
Speaker 1: offense is gonna be three and out constantly. So Potako

1218
01:05:28,080 --> 01:05:29,800
Speaker 1: gets a C grade here. I can I flirted with

1219
01:05:29,840 --> 01:05:31,760
Speaker 1: a B grade, but I can't quite get myself to

1220
01:05:31,800 --> 01:05:34,240
Speaker 1: go there against the Rams. Jerick McKinnon, if you're in

1221
01:05:34,240 --> 01:05:36,520
Speaker 1: a spot, consider him here. He's gonna get some extra

1222
01:05:36,520 --> 01:05:39,400
Speaker 1: work and could be a contributor via the air. In

1223
01:05:39,480 --> 01:05:43,320
Speaker 1: weeks nine and ten he caught six passes. Alvin Kamara

1224
01:05:43,360 --> 01:05:45,760
Speaker 1: posted forty seven air yards against the Rams last week.

1225
01:05:45,840 --> 01:05:47,640
Speaker 1: So you know, if we can get forty seven are

1226
01:05:47,720 --> 01:05:51,560
Speaker 1: yards out of Jerick McKinnon and probably equals a C grade.

1227
01:05:52,480 --> 01:05:57,120
Speaker 1: Our next matchup is the Chargers taking on the Arizona Cardinals.

1228
01:05:57,680 --> 01:05:59,880
Speaker 1: Chargers side of this. You already gave us the backup

1229
01:06:00,120 --> 01:06:03,720
Speaker 1: ight end. Yeah, Trey McKinney, you know, line up all

1230
01:06:03,760 --> 01:06:06,040
Speaker 1: of your animal sounds for this one charge because this

1231
01:06:06,080 --> 01:06:09,280
Speaker 1: is like a fantasy zoo. We're plugging in all the chargers.

1232
01:06:09,600 --> 01:06:13,080
Speaker 1: I like that, plug in the chargers. Austin Ekeler, he's

1233
01:06:13,080 --> 01:06:16,280
Speaker 1: an art vark, just an air bear. He's a bear

1234
01:06:16,440 --> 01:06:21,560
Speaker 1: and also an art charger grades for both of them. Wow,

1235
01:06:21,920 --> 01:06:24,440
Speaker 1: that's like a fight right there. Keenan Allen got in

1236
01:06:24,480 --> 01:06:27,320
Speaker 1: a full practice this week. He's an A after playing

1237
01:06:27,360 --> 01:06:32,920
Speaker 1: two thirds of the snaps Lady's at the zoo. Uh.

1238
01:06:33,040 --> 01:06:35,439
Speaker 1: Mike Williams did not practice yet this week. I don't

1239
01:06:35,480 --> 01:06:37,800
Speaker 1: think he plays. But Josh Palmer is gonna play and

1240
01:06:37,840 --> 01:06:40,520
Speaker 1: he gets an A grade. And Gerald Everett he's even

1241
01:06:40,520 --> 01:06:43,920
Speaker 1: a solid B grade here. And here's why the Cardinals

1242
01:06:43,920 --> 01:06:47,440
Speaker 1: are a bottom ten defense in the following categories, passing

1243
01:06:47,440 --> 01:06:52,640
Speaker 1: completions and yards allowed, passing touchdowns, rushing yards to opposing quarterbacks,

1244
01:06:52,920 --> 01:06:58,240
Speaker 1: receptions to wide receivers, running backyards per carry, running back receiving,

1245
01:06:58,240 --> 01:07:02,080
Speaker 1: and combo yards allowed, seaving touchdowns to opposing running backs.

1246
01:07:02,240 --> 01:07:04,880
Speaker 1: And they already highlighted that the worst tight end defense

1247
01:07:04,920 --> 01:07:08,320
Speaker 1: in the league, which is why Trey McKitty kitty was

1248
01:07:08,400 --> 01:07:10,440
Speaker 1: might take a chance on the receiver. All of the

1249
01:07:10,480 --> 01:07:12,840
Speaker 1: above stats work in favor of the Chargers. Start them

1250
01:07:12,840 --> 01:07:16,240
Speaker 1: all on the cardinal side, it's a bit more thorny. Uh.

1251
01:07:16,360 --> 01:07:19,080
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray was a full participant in practice this week,

1252
01:07:19,080 --> 01:07:21,800
Speaker 1: so it looks like he'll return after missing two weeks

1253
01:07:21,800 --> 01:07:23,680
Speaker 1: with a hamstring injury. See, this is the thing that

1254
01:07:23,720 --> 01:07:26,240
Speaker 1: worries me is if if I'm not gonna get rushing

1255
01:07:26,360 --> 01:07:28,960
Speaker 1: out of Kyler Murray, I'm really not that interested in

1256
01:07:28,960 --> 01:07:30,800
Speaker 1: what his arm is gonna give. So the Chargers have

1257
01:07:30,840 --> 01:07:32,600
Speaker 1: not given up a ton through the air to the

1258
01:07:32,600 --> 01:07:35,960
Speaker 1: posing quarterbacks. It's not a particularly good matchup, and they

1259
01:07:35,960 --> 01:07:39,120
Speaker 1: have allowed multiple passing scores and six of two six

1260
01:07:39,160 --> 01:07:42,080
Speaker 1: of the last ten quarterbacks they've faced. I'll give Kyler

1261
01:07:42,120 --> 01:07:44,439
Speaker 1: a C grade here, but this is about the time

1262
01:07:44,480 --> 01:07:47,280
Speaker 1: of the year every year where Kyler is made up

1263
01:07:47,840 --> 01:07:52,280
Speaker 1: and Kyler fades into nothingness, he stops running. The hamstring

1264
01:07:52,320 --> 01:07:55,320
Speaker 1: injuced injury certainly plays into that, and I'm a little

1265
01:07:55,360 --> 01:07:58,520
Speaker 1: nervous that with the weirdness on the sideline with him

1266
01:07:58,520 --> 01:08:00,920
Speaker 1: and Cliff Kingsbury. If they don't go right in the

1267
01:08:00,960 --> 01:08:03,320
Speaker 1: first half, he could just get flat out benched for

1268
01:08:03,360 --> 01:08:05,680
Speaker 1: Colt McCoy in this McCoy is healthy enough to go,

1269
01:08:05,800 --> 01:08:09,200
Speaker 1: that is a possibility. There was I forget which which

1270
01:08:09,280 --> 01:08:13,680
Speaker 1: channel did the Cardinals game last week? It was ESPN.

1271
01:08:14,160 --> 01:08:19,000
Speaker 1: It's rare that your ESPN pregame devotes like a whole

1272
01:08:19,000 --> 01:08:21,880
Speaker 1: segment to how the team is happier with Colt McCoy's

1273
01:08:21,920 --> 01:08:24,920
Speaker 1: for quarterback and how he's galvanized the locker room and

1274
01:08:24,920 --> 01:08:27,000
Speaker 1: the players all love him, and it was all of

1275
01:08:27,040 --> 01:08:31,160
Speaker 1: these back it's handed. Yeah, it's all it was. So

1276
01:08:31,320 --> 01:08:33,320
Speaker 1: don't get a lot of that. I don't think Kyler

1277
01:08:33,439 --> 01:08:37,160
Speaker 1: and Cliff are both in Arizona next year. Arizona is

1278
01:08:38,080 --> 01:08:40,479
Speaker 1: carrying on hard knocks right now. This in season hard

1279
01:08:40,560 --> 01:08:44,200
Speaker 1: knocks the Canras out of here. Keep in mind, nobody's

1280
01:08:44,200 --> 01:08:47,240
Speaker 1: gonna pick up Kyler's contract. No, nobody wants that deal.

1281
01:08:47,800 --> 01:08:51,840
Speaker 1: By the way, Cliff Kingsbury's house, I feel like you

1282
01:08:51,920 --> 01:08:56,240
Speaker 1: get an STD from ringing the doorbell that wow, this

1283
01:08:56,400 --> 01:09:01,240
Speaker 1: guy things are happening. He gives off five just like

1284
01:09:01,640 --> 01:09:05,799
Speaker 1: so bring some Claros wipes to the ring doorbell. Portrait

1285
01:09:05,800 --> 01:09:09,400
Speaker 1: of like a lion wearing a crown. He just like

1286
01:09:10,000 --> 01:09:14,800
Speaker 1: he's so gone. Um sorry, I understand Marks Brown is

1287
01:09:15,400 --> 01:09:18,439
Speaker 1: possible to play, but media reports say if he does play,

1288
01:09:18,520 --> 01:09:20,720
Speaker 1: he'll be on a snap count. Yeah, they have him

1289
01:09:20,760 --> 01:09:22,880
Speaker 1: on a pitch count from what for what we see.

1290
01:09:22,920 --> 01:09:25,320
Speaker 1: But Ron Dale Moore doesn't look like he's going to

1291
01:09:25,400 --> 01:09:28,000
Speaker 1: go with a groin injury. Greg Dortch looks like he'll

1292
01:09:28,040 --> 01:09:29,720
Speaker 1: miss this week with a thumb injury. And of course

1293
01:09:29,800 --> 01:09:32,960
Speaker 1: Zach Ertz is on I R. So it's all DeAndre Hopkins.

1294
01:09:32,960 --> 01:09:35,439
Speaker 1: I'm giving him an A grade here. Uh, he's gonna

1295
01:09:35,479 --> 01:09:38,960
Speaker 1: be targeted copiously in this game. How many times is

1296
01:09:39,000 --> 01:09:41,760
Speaker 1: Hopkins catching a ball per game? Right now? Church? Um?

1297
01:09:44,960 --> 01:09:48,719
Speaker 1: Oh that's correct, Charch, good job. It is nine times

1298
01:09:48,760 --> 01:09:51,760
Speaker 1: per game. And the Charger secondary is allowing almost a

1299
01:09:51,800 --> 01:09:55,320
Speaker 1: passing score per game to opposing wide receivers. So Hopkins

1300
01:09:55,400 --> 01:09:59,280
Speaker 1: gets an A. There's another tray mix tend to say

1301
01:09:59,320 --> 01:10:02,720
Speaker 1: how many? How many Trey gonna have? Trey McBride is

1302
01:10:02,760 --> 01:10:06,160
Speaker 1: not startable, but I like Trey McKitty. I thought he

1303
01:10:06,200 --> 01:10:09,960
Speaker 1: would be startable due to the dearth of other available options. Yeah,

1304
01:10:09,960 --> 01:10:13,559
Speaker 1: I just don't try Tyler that much, but I'm I'm

1305
01:10:13,600 --> 01:10:16,639
Speaker 1: giving James Conner a B grade here. He scored thrice

1306
01:10:16,800 --> 01:10:20,000
Speaker 1: in the last two weeks. Faces a Chargers defense that

1307
01:10:20,040 --> 01:10:22,479
Speaker 1: has been straight up bad against the run. They have

1308
01:10:22,520 --> 01:10:25,559
Speaker 1: allowed five point seven yards per carry this year, which

1309
01:10:25,640 --> 01:10:29,080
Speaker 1: lends to the averages of one hundred sixty one combo

1310
01:10:29,240 --> 01:10:32,160
Speaker 1: yards and one point three touchdowns per game allowed to

1311
01:10:32,240 --> 01:10:36,000
Speaker 1: opposing backs. I don't think Kyante Ingram steals enough work

1312
01:10:36,320 --> 01:10:38,880
Speaker 1: from Connor to make a dent here, so Connor should

1313
01:10:38,920 --> 01:10:41,160
Speaker 1: get to a hundred yards at least in this one.

1314
01:10:41,560 --> 01:10:44,599
Speaker 1: Probably a coin flips chance at a score. Alright, let's

1315
01:10:44,600 --> 01:10:46,240
Speaker 1: see if we can sneak in one more matchup, and

1316
01:10:46,280 --> 01:10:48,040
Speaker 1: I'm hoping it doesn't take long, at least not on

1317
01:10:48,080 --> 01:10:51,240
Speaker 1: the Las Vegas side. Brian, Las Vegas is at Seattle

1318
01:10:51,400 --> 01:10:53,800
Speaker 1: for this game. There has been a very inconsistent Las

1319
01:10:53,880 --> 01:10:58,120
Speaker 1: Vegas offense. It has well outside of Josh Jacobs and

1320
01:10:58,160 --> 01:11:00,599
Speaker 1: Davante Adams, so I'm giving a grade to both. Will

1321
01:11:00,600 --> 01:11:03,200
Speaker 1: start with Jacob's real quick Seahawks allowing nearly a hundred

1322
01:11:03,240 --> 01:11:05,720
Speaker 1: fifty compo yards per game to opposing running backs. That's

1323
01:11:05,800 --> 01:11:08,879
Speaker 1: the fifth most. Jacobs is also top nine and targets

1324
01:11:08,880 --> 01:11:11,040
Speaker 1: and receptions among all running backs. He hasn't been much

1325
01:11:11,040 --> 01:11:12,800
Speaker 1: of a pass catcher in the past, so and a

1326
01:11:12,960 --> 01:11:16,200
Speaker 1: for Jacobs and easy for Davante Adams. Last three games

1327
01:11:16,439 --> 01:11:21,479
Speaker 1: one and two and two, he's on absolute fire. UH

1328
01:11:21,560 --> 01:11:24,000
Speaker 1: wide receivers are averaging fifteen catches and a hundred fifty

1329
01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:26,760
Speaker 1: plus yards per game, and they've totaled three touchdowns against

1330
01:11:26,800 --> 01:11:30,200
Speaker 1: Seattle's against Seattle over their last two. That's why mac

1331
01:11:30,200 --> 01:11:32,320
Speaker 1: hollins might take a chance on a wide receiver. I

1332
01:11:32,360 --> 01:11:38,559
Speaker 1: like him this week. I also like Foster, not Morow.

1333
01:11:38,640 --> 01:11:42,719
Speaker 1: It doesn't sound like it's spelled. That's his problem, not ours.

1334
01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:45,320
Speaker 1: That's well, it's kind of it is our problem, isn't it. Anyway,

1335
01:11:45,760 --> 01:11:48,320
Speaker 1: he gets to see opposing tight ends are averaging five

1336
01:11:48,360 --> 01:11:52,000
Speaker 1: catches seventy four yards per game against Seattle. Yes, those

1337
01:11:52,080 --> 01:11:54,559
Speaker 1: numbers are a little skewed by t. J. Hockenson's blow

1338
01:11:54,600 --> 01:11:56,280
Speaker 1: up game against them in Week four, you have like

1339
01:11:56,280 --> 01:11:59,640
Speaker 1: a hundred eighty yards. But still, since then, Seattle has

1340
01:11:59,640 --> 01:12:02,280
Speaker 1: allowed a tight end to top fifty yards or score

1341
01:12:02,280 --> 01:12:06,320
Speaker 1: a touchdown in five of six games. So Morrow is

1342
01:12:06,600 --> 01:12:11,840
Speaker 1: startable in the waste land. UH Dereck by Derek B.

1343
01:12:13,040 --> 01:12:16,439
Speaker 1: Derek c as in Car gets a B. Car in

1344
01:12:16,479 --> 01:12:18,679
Speaker 1: the later Raiders are left for dead after getting blanked

1345
01:12:18,680 --> 01:12:20,360
Speaker 1: by the Saints, But over the last three weeks he's

1346
01:12:20,400 --> 01:12:23,439
Speaker 1: been killing it. Yes, thanks in most part to Davante Adams.

1347
01:12:23,680 --> 01:12:25,679
Speaker 1: But the Seattle is the middle of the road matchup.

1348
01:12:25,680 --> 01:12:28,240
Speaker 1: But they are allowing two fifty and one and a

1349
01:12:28,240 --> 01:12:30,599
Speaker 1: half passing touchdowns per game. Should be a safe floor

1350
01:12:30,680 --> 01:12:32,160
Speaker 1: for Car here. You're going to give him a B

1351
01:12:32,680 --> 01:12:35,559
Speaker 1: over to the Seattle side, Ken Walker easy A. Over

1352
01:12:35,560 --> 01:12:38,800
Speaker 1: their last four games, the Raiders have surrendered seven touchdowns

1353
01:12:38,840 --> 01:12:42,679
Speaker 1: and to one yard rushing performances to opposing backs. Vegas

1354
01:12:42,720 --> 01:12:45,160
Speaker 1: has also allowed the fourth most catches to the position,

1355
01:12:45,479 --> 01:12:47,840
Speaker 1: which also bodes well for Walker, who has totaled nine

1356
01:12:47,880 --> 01:12:52,639
Speaker 1: catches over his last two games. DK Metcalf Tyler Lockett

1357
01:12:52,640 --> 01:12:54,880
Speaker 1: can give both of them a B over the last

1358
01:12:54,920 --> 01:12:57,720
Speaker 1: three games, Metcalf has scored in two of three and

1359
01:12:57,800 --> 01:13:00,839
Speaker 1: Lockett has scored in every one. The Raiders are allowing

1360
01:13:00,920 --> 01:13:04,599
Speaker 1: thirteen catches, five yards and nearly a touchdown per game

1361
01:13:04,920 --> 01:13:08,040
Speaker 1: to opposing wide receivers. So I love Metcalfine Lockett. This week,

1362
01:13:08,360 --> 01:13:11,400
Speaker 1: I don't love Noah Fanton will death Slack. They're both

1363
01:13:11,439 --> 01:13:13,920
Speaker 1: on the bench. They continue to split time and neither

1364
01:13:14,000 --> 01:13:17,600
Speaker 1: have scored since week four. And lastly, a B for

1365
01:13:17,760 --> 01:13:22,400
Speaker 1: Gino Smith. Gino has scored multiple touchdowns and eight of

1366
01:13:22,439 --> 01:13:25,360
Speaker 1: his ten games played, and since Week four, he's also

1367
01:13:25,439 --> 01:13:28,519
Speaker 1: averaged nearly thirty rushing yards per game, which pretty much

1368
01:13:28,840 --> 01:13:32,920
Speaker 1: equates to a bonus touchdown past He's been great. I was,

1369
01:13:33,120 --> 01:13:37,960
Speaker 1: I was trying ye go about that. Yeah, well, the

1370
01:13:38,000 --> 01:13:42,600
Speaker 1: frequency is I don't know the frequency of touchdown, but

1371
01:13:42,800 --> 01:13:47,800
Speaker 1: is a frequency good like good frequency? We assume high

1372
01:13:47,800 --> 01:13:51,639
Speaker 1: octane frequency. I don't know. I don't know if that's

1373
01:13:51,640 --> 01:13:53,280
Speaker 1: a thing. Is it? You know what is a thing?

1374
01:13:53,320 --> 01:13:56,200
Speaker 1: Premature speculation. We're gonna give you three guys to pick

1375
01:13:56,280 --> 01:13:58,160
Speaker 1: up this week that everybody else is gonna be trying

1376
01:13:58,160 --> 01:14:01,719
Speaker 1: to pick up next week. But those players are already

1377
01:14:01,720 --> 01:14:05,439
Speaker 1: on your tape. Stay tuned Premature speculation and our final

1378
01:14:05,560 --> 01:14:08,040
Speaker 1: sets of matchups coming up in the final segment of

1379
01:14:08,120 --> 01:14:22,759
Speaker 1: Fantasy Football Weekly. It's a final segment of Fantasy Football Weekly.

1380
01:14:22,840 --> 01:14:26,120
Speaker 1: Paul Charchy and Matt Harrison, Brian Johnson with you. This

1381
01:14:26,240 --> 01:14:35,160
Speaker 1: is a segment we like to call premature speculation. Blamo Blamo.

1382
01:14:35,520 --> 01:14:37,880
Speaker 1: Three players that you'll want to pick up this week

1383
01:14:37,880 --> 01:14:40,200
Speaker 1: that everybody else will be trying to pick up next week.

1384
01:14:40,560 --> 01:14:43,200
Speaker 1: We begin with Matt Harrison, who is your premature speculation.

1385
01:14:43,720 --> 01:14:45,920
Speaker 1: I actually don't necessarily think people are going to try

1386
01:14:45,920 --> 01:14:47,439
Speaker 1: to pick him up this week, but I want to

1387
01:14:47,439 --> 01:14:51,200
Speaker 1: put on your radar for your playoff matchups to pick

1388
01:14:51,280 --> 01:14:55,759
Speaker 1: up Tyler Conklin, the tight end for the Jets. Three

1389
01:14:56,000 --> 01:14:59,760
Speaker 1: absolute cake matchups for Conklin and the fantasy playoffs to

1390
01:14:59,840 --> 01:15:03,000
Speaker 1: try right, Jacksonville and Seattle. And if you go to

1391
01:15:03,080 --> 01:15:06,000
Speaker 1: Week eighteen for some crazy reason in your fantasy playoffs,

1392
01:15:06,160 --> 01:15:08,519
Speaker 1: they get Miami in that week and that's also a

1393
01:15:08,520 --> 01:15:12,559
Speaker 1: good tight end matchup. So top ten matchups for Tyler

1394
01:15:12,600 --> 01:15:14,720
Speaker 1: Conklin in your fantasy playoffs. I do not like, Just

1395
01:15:14,760 --> 01:15:16,400
Speaker 1: to be clear, I do not like playing in Week

1396
01:15:16,439 --> 01:15:19,280
Speaker 1: eighteen for anything. I know you just to be just

1397
01:15:19,320 --> 01:15:21,280
Speaker 1: want to make sure that you've never played in Week

1398
01:15:21,320 --> 01:15:25,960
Speaker 1: eight teen ever, never, Brian, your premature speculation player, you

1399
01:15:26,280 --> 01:15:28,960
Speaker 1: haven't played in the one year history of the weekend. Yeah,

1400
01:15:29,400 --> 01:15:31,400
Speaker 1: that was was going for that. I know him in

1401
01:15:31,479 --> 01:15:34,640
Speaker 1: Week seven. Yeah, that's that's always been dumb um. I

1402
01:15:34,640 --> 01:15:36,559
Speaker 1: don't like my guy as much as Matt likes his.

1403
01:15:36,640 --> 01:15:40,120
Speaker 1: But I got Bears rookie running back Treston Ebner, and

1404
01:15:40,160 --> 01:15:43,960
Speaker 1: the angle here is he's probably gonna become a warm

1405
01:15:44,000 --> 01:15:47,680
Speaker 1: body that sees double digit touches down the stretch. You

1406
01:15:47,720 --> 01:15:52,240
Speaker 1: think you might rest Montgomery. The Bears are from Montgomery.

1407
01:15:52,240 --> 01:15:54,200
Speaker 1: It's a contract here from Montgomery, so they could run

1408
01:15:54,240 --> 01:15:57,200
Speaker 1: them into the ground. But what's the point there, three

1409
01:15:57,200 --> 01:16:01,160
Speaker 1: and eight. It's so they're probably gonna resign montgo. I

1410
01:16:01,200 --> 01:16:02,880
Speaker 1: know they're gonna want to see what they have in Edner.

1411
01:16:02,960 --> 01:16:05,519
Speaker 1: I just think they'll give him some extended books. So

1412
01:16:05,560 --> 01:16:08,800
Speaker 1: it's just a running back stash if you're desperate down

1413
01:16:08,840 --> 01:16:11,599
Speaker 1: the stretch. Trust and Ebner is out there and he's free.

1414
01:16:11,640 --> 01:16:14,080
Speaker 1: And we're really running out of guys at this point

1415
01:16:14,080 --> 01:16:16,639
Speaker 1: in the season segment of the show. But so trusting

1416
01:16:16,680 --> 01:16:18,840
Speaker 1: Ebner is my guy. UH one guy that we never

1417
01:16:18,920 --> 01:16:20,479
Speaker 1: run out of. Because I don't think any show talks

1418
01:16:20,479 --> 01:16:22,720
Speaker 1: about Nico Collins as much as this one does. But

1419
01:16:24,200 --> 01:16:26,839
Speaker 1: roster for Nico Collins emerging is the go to receiver

1420
01:16:26,920 --> 01:16:30,200
Speaker 1: for the Texans UH ten targets and seven targets the

1421
01:16:30,280 --> 01:16:33,439
Speaker 1: last two weeks. Over the last month, He's averaging four

1422
01:16:33,520 --> 01:16:35,960
Speaker 1: catches for fifty five yards. That isn't all all bad.

1423
01:16:36,120 --> 01:16:39,040
Speaker 1: He scored two weeks ago. And the fantasy playoff run

1424
01:16:39,120 --> 01:16:44,320
Speaker 1: for Nico Collins Chiefs, Titans, Jaguars that those are pretty good.

1425
01:16:44,560 --> 01:16:47,080
Speaker 1: Maybe this passing offense gets a boost. Davis Mills, who

1426
01:16:47,200 --> 01:16:49,840
Speaker 1: I admit I was. I was very optimistic about Mills

1427
01:16:49,840 --> 01:16:52,439
Speaker 1: heading into this season to be better than last year,

1428
01:16:52,560 --> 01:16:55,479
Speaker 1: and you was wrong. I was wrong. He's worse than

1429
01:16:55,520 --> 01:16:58,600
Speaker 1: he was last year. They've benched him. Maybe Allen is

1430
01:16:58,600 --> 01:17:02,719
Speaker 1: the is part of the answer year. I was Nico

1431
01:17:02,960 --> 01:17:05,640
Speaker 1: is one of my preseason sleepers, but I failed to

1432
01:17:05,640 --> 01:17:10,040
Speaker 1: mention you want just want to wait until November. And

1433
01:17:10,080 --> 01:17:13,000
Speaker 1: if you're Houston, Brandon Cooks is gonna be gone this offseason, right,

1434
01:17:13,080 --> 01:17:15,840
Speaker 1: so you may as well develop your in house next

1435
01:17:15,920 --> 01:17:19,519
Speaker 1: year's number one receiver, Nico Collins in these last handful

1436
01:17:19,560 --> 01:17:22,839
Speaker 1: of games that don't mean anything to you. So, Nico Collins,

1437
01:17:24,080 --> 01:17:26,200
Speaker 1: let's go to our final two sets of matchups. The

1438
01:17:26,240 --> 01:17:29,680
Speaker 1: first one Sunday Night football, green Bay taking on Philadelphia.

1439
01:17:29,840 --> 01:17:32,400
Speaker 1: On the green Bay side, Let's begin with the mere

1440
01:17:32,439 --> 01:17:37,600
Speaker 1: curial Aaron Rodgers. You think Rogers has been as inconsistent

1441
01:17:37,800 --> 01:17:40,320
Speaker 1: as the team has been because usually as the quarterback goes,

1442
01:17:40,360 --> 01:17:42,759
Speaker 1: the teams goes. But he's actually been a very reliable

1443
01:17:42,760 --> 01:17:46,160
Speaker 1: fantasy asset, scoring in every game this year since the opener,

1444
01:17:46,240 --> 01:17:50,240
Speaker 1: and he has thrown multiple touchdowns in eight of ten games.

1445
01:17:50,840 --> 01:17:53,800
Speaker 1: But the Eagles are an elite past defense and maybe

1446
01:17:53,800 --> 01:17:56,880
Speaker 1: the best. They've shut out three of the past four

1447
01:17:56,920 --> 01:18:00,920
Speaker 1: opposing quarterbacks, and on the season, they're giving up zero

1448
01:18:01,080 --> 01:18:04,599
Speaker 1: point nine touchdown passes per game. That is not good.

1449
01:18:04,600 --> 01:18:07,160
Speaker 1: And I do not like Rogers receivers matchups, and we'll

1450
01:18:07,160 --> 01:18:09,640
Speaker 1: talk about those right now, beginning with and if I

1451
01:18:09,680 --> 01:18:11,559
Speaker 1: didn't say it, I don't think I did C grade

1452
01:18:11,600 --> 01:18:15,679
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers just the C grade and Christian Watson five

1453
01:18:15,720 --> 01:18:18,080
Speaker 1: touchdowns in the last two games, and all five of

1454
01:18:18,120 --> 01:18:20,920
Speaker 1: Aaron rodgers last touchdowns have gone to him. But he

1455
01:18:21,040 --> 01:18:24,559
Speaker 1: runs overwhelmingly from the outside, and there he's running right

1456
01:18:24,560 --> 01:18:28,840
Speaker 1: into the teeth of philly Secondary elite cornerbacks Darius Slay

1457
01:18:28,880 --> 01:18:32,679
Speaker 1: and James Bradberry. Philadelphia has allowed the fifth fewest receiving

1458
01:18:32,760 --> 01:18:35,960
Speaker 1: yards and the sixth fewest touchdowns to receivers behind the

1459
01:18:35,960 --> 01:18:40,519
Speaker 1: elite play of cornerbacks Darius Slay, and James Bradberry. Neither

1460
01:18:40,560 --> 01:18:43,479
Speaker 1: cornerback is allowed more than one touchdown, neither has allowed

1461
01:18:43,520 --> 01:18:46,040
Speaker 1: more than fifty of the targets, and their coverage should

1462
01:18:46,040 --> 01:18:49,679
Speaker 1: be caught. So I'm given Christian Watson a C grade

1463
01:18:49,680 --> 01:18:52,000
Speaker 1: mostly on the momentum of his past couple of games,

1464
01:18:52,400 --> 01:18:55,160
Speaker 1: but this is a very tough match up here. Randall

1465
01:18:55,280 --> 01:18:58,519
Speaker 1: Cobb is my favorite of the receiver matchups. In his

1466
01:18:58,560 --> 01:19:01,200
Speaker 1: first game back last week, caught all six of his

1467
01:19:01,240 --> 01:19:03,800
Speaker 1: targets for seventy three yards and he led the team

1468
01:19:03,800 --> 01:19:06,559
Speaker 1: in both categories. And because he runs from the slot,

1469
01:19:07,160 --> 01:19:12,519
Speaker 1: Cobb avoid Slay and Bradberry, and the normal starting slot

1470
01:19:12,520 --> 01:19:15,160
Speaker 1: cornerback of Matos is on I R. So this is

1471
01:19:15,200 --> 01:19:18,280
Speaker 1: a premo spot for Randall Cob with a B grade.

1472
01:19:18,360 --> 01:19:20,599
Speaker 1: I feel like we've seen this movie before and Randall

1473
01:19:20,640 --> 01:19:23,559
Speaker 1: Cobb comes out with one catch on three targets for

1474
01:19:23,600 --> 01:19:27,679
Speaker 1: twelve yards. Absolutely possible, but on paper anyway, he's got

1475
01:19:27,680 --> 01:19:30,920
Speaker 1: the most favorable matchup by a mile of anybody among

1476
01:19:31,000 --> 01:19:33,519
Speaker 1: the pack of receivers. How old did you guess Randall

1477
01:19:33,560 --> 01:19:42,680
Speaker 1: Cob ist one? I was thinking older, like four. He

1478
01:19:42,800 --> 01:19:44,840
Speaker 1: started young. He's got an eighth of a tank left

1479
01:19:44,840 --> 01:19:48,000
Speaker 1: and eighth of a tank. Might the gaslights on, but

1480
01:19:48,200 --> 01:19:50,200
Speaker 1: you can still get somewhere. Let's go to the running backs.

1481
01:19:50,240 --> 01:19:53,360
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones B grade. The Eagles have have a struggling

1482
01:19:53,439 --> 01:19:56,080
Speaker 1: run defense and a great past defense. So if you're

1483
01:19:56,080 --> 01:19:58,680
Speaker 1: gonna win against the Eagles, screen Bay has to run

1484
01:19:58,720 --> 01:20:02,479
Speaker 1: the ball. Here. In games where Jones has gotten fifteen

1485
01:20:02,560 --> 01:20:04,040
Speaker 1: or more carries, which I think he's gonna get in

1486
01:20:04,080 --> 01:20:07,719
Speaker 1: this game, he's averaged over one hundred thirty rushing yards

1487
01:20:08,479 --> 01:20:11,800
Speaker 1: in the game. Since Elephantine defensive tackle Jordan Davis went

1488
01:20:11,840 --> 01:20:13,920
Speaker 1: on injured reserved, Philadelphia has given up an average of

1489
01:20:13,960 --> 01:20:16,400
Speaker 1: a hundred twenty five rushing yards per game. So that

1490
01:20:16,479 --> 01:20:18,880
Speaker 1: puts Aaron Jones really on pace for between a hundred

1491
01:20:18,920 --> 01:20:21,120
Speaker 1: twenty five and a hundred thirty rushing yards. We'll call

1492
01:20:21,160 --> 01:20:23,760
Speaker 1: it a hundred and twenty seven and a half. The

1493
01:20:23,800 --> 01:20:26,559
Speaker 1: addition of Linval Joseph and and Dominican su are not

1494
01:20:26,680 --> 01:20:29,000
Speaker 1: likely to help. Those are aged veterans, and I do

1495
01:20:29,120 --> 01:20:31,560
Speaker 1: not think that's going to change the equation here. A J.

1496
01:20:31,720 --> 01:20:34,280
Speaker 1: Dillon's on the bench. He has not scored since the opener.

1497
01:20:34,560 --> 01:20:37,479
Speaker 1: He's being dramatically outplayed by Aaron Jones. And he does

1498
01:20:37,520 --> 01:20:41,080
Speaker 1: not catch a j Dillon hasn't topped eleven yards as

1499
01:20:41,080 --> 01:20:44,400
Speaker 1: a receiver in any game since the opener. He and

1500
01:20:44,520 --> 01:20:48,240
Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt has been absolutely worthless. They have they're going

1501
01:20:48,320 --> 01:20:50,679
Speaker 1: to be this big helper. I thought Dylan was gonna

1502
01:20:50,720 --> 01:20:59,400
Speaker 1: be That was another preseason I was not like that

1503
01:20:59,800 --> 01:21:01,640
Speaker 1: was we're with you. I thought he was gonna be

1504
01:21:02,000 --> 01:21:04,439
Speaker 1: just a helper if nothing else, nothing. It was the

1505
01:21:04,520 --> 01:21:07,599
Speaker 1: nothing part of nothing else. Let's go to Philadelphia. Jalen

1506
01:21:07,680 --> 01:21:11,519
Speaker 1: Hurts obviously great, although let me say this, he doesn't

1507
01:21:11,560 --> 01:21:13,800
Speaker 1: look the same without Dallas Goddard. I mean, it's starting

1508
01:21:13,800 --> 01:21:16,280
Speaker 1: to really think Dallas Goddard is the was the engine

1509
01:21:16,320 --> 01:21:19,680
Speaker 1: that made that passing offense go, because it's been inconsistent

1510
01:21:19,760 --> 01:21:24,640
Speaker 1: since then. After allowing just four passing touchdowns in the

1511
01:21:24,680 --> 01:21:27,160
Speaker 1: first six games of the year, the Packers have really

1512
01:21:27,160 --> 01:21:30,920
Speaker 1: regressed on past defense, allowing eleven touchdowns in the past

1513
01:21:30,960 --> 01:21:34,599
Speaker 1: five games. Last week, and Brian alluded to this earlier.

1514
01:21:34,640 --> 01:21:38,639
Speaker 1: Conscious passer Ryan Tannehill posted three three yards against Green

1515
01:21:38,680 --> 01:21:40,519
Speaker 1: Bay that was the most they had given up in

1516
01:21:40,560 --> 01:21:44,040
Speaker 1: a year. The two mobile quarterbacks to face the Packers,

1517
01:21:44,520 --> 01:21:48,840
Speaker 1: Josh Allen, Daniel Jones, seven and forty nine rushing yards,

1518
01:21:48,840 --> 01:21:50,400
Speaker 1: and I think we will get at least to that

1519
01:21:50,520 --> 01:21:52,200
Speaker 1: number for Jalen Hurts here, so I still have an

1520
01:21:52,200 --> 01:21:55,519
Speaker 1: A grade on him um, but again that passing offense

1521
01:21:55,560 --> 01:21:59,280
Speaker 1: has not looked the same without Dallas Goddard Among the receivers.

1522
01:21:59,360 --> 01:22:00,960
Speaker 1: Let's go to A. J. Brown be great on him.

1523
01:22:01,000 --> 01:22:03,520
Speaker 1: Green Bay has allowed the fourth most yards and receptions

1524
01:22:03,560 --> 01:22:06,720
Speaker 1: to receivers since Eric Stokes went down to Week nine,

1525
01:22:06,840 --> 01:22:09,000
Speaker 1: and the funny thing is Stokes wasn't any good, but

1526
01:22:09,120 --> 01:22:12,840
Speaker 1: since he's left their way worse without him, Ground leads

1527
01:22:12,840 --> 01:22:16,160
Speaker 1: the NFL and yards per route run against man coverage. Meanwhile,

1528
01:22:16,240 --> 01:22:19,160
Speaker 1: J R. Alexander's allowing the six most yards per reception

1529
01:22:19,200 --> 01:22:22,519
Speaker 1: while in man coverage. I like that individual matchup the

1530
01:22:22,560 --> 01:22:26,280
Speaker 1: Packers secondary, though still good. Brown isn't automatic, but it

1531
01:22:26,400 --> 01:22:28,960
Speaker 1: is a more promising situation than it felt a couple

1532
01:22:28,960 --> 01:22:32,880
Speaker 1: of weeks ago against green Bay. B grade on A. J. Brown.

1533
01:22:33,600 --> 01:22:37,839
Speaker 1: DeVonta Smith has been the primary beneficiary of Dallas Goddard

1534
01:22:37,920 --> 01:22:41,160
Speaker 1: going out his He's led the Eagles and receptions, yards

1535
01:22:41,160 --> 01:22:44,240
Speaker 1: and targets since that time since the Stokes injuries. I

1536
01:22:44,240 --> 01:22:47,559
Speaker 1: mentioned Packers cornerback Rasul Douglas tends to stay on the

1537
01:22:47,600 --> 01:22:51,559
Speaker 1: opposing number two receiver and in that span he has

1538
01:22:51,760 --> 01:22:55,080
Speaker 1: given up on the targets in his coverage. So I

1539
01:22:55,120 --> 01:22:58,439
Speaker 1: gotta be grade on DeVonta Smith as well. And then

1540
01:22:58,479 --> 01:23:00,720
Speaker 1: the only other uh filled off your player you care

1541
01:23:00,760 --> 01:23:03,679
Speaker 1: about is Miles Sanders. I think the bounce back game

1542
01:23:03,800 --> 01:23:06,880
Speaker 1: is coming after a couple of dud games. For eight

1543
01:23:07,000 --> 01:23:10,280
Speaker 1: consecutive games, Green Bay has seen a running back top

1544
01:23:10,400 --> 01:23:13,599
Speaker 1: sixty seven yards on the ground against them. They ranked

1545
01:23:13,640 --> 01:23:16,799
Speaker 1: thirty and rushing yards allowed on the season. Miles Sanders

1546
01:23:16,800 --> 01:23:19,639
Speaker 1: has been held to one scoreless yards over the last

1547
01:23:19,640 --> 01:23:23,080
Speaker 1: two games. Prior to that, though averaging eighty seven yards

1548
01:23:23,080 --> 01:23:25,080
Speaker 1: and a touchdown in the previous five. I think he

1549
01:23:25,080 --> 01:23:27,160
Speaker 1: gets back to that. I think he's sitting around ninety

1550
01:23:27,200 --> 01:23:30,200
Speaker 1: yards and a touchdown in this one. Weirdly, Miles Sanders,

1551
01:23:30,200 --> 01:23:33,639
Speaker 1: who can catch total non factor in the receiving as

1552
01:23:33,680 --> 01:23:37,360
Speaker 1: one catch in the last month. That is it. Our

1553
01:23:37,400 --> 01:23:41,880
Speaker 1: final matchup of this show is Pittsburgh taking on Indianapolis

1554
01:23:41,960 --> 01:23:46,640
Speaker 1: on Monday night. Naji Harris Matt has been a resurgent

1555
01:23:46,760 --> 01:23:49,320
Speaker 1: over the past couple of weeks. Well, yeah, that's because

1556
01:23:49,840 --> 01:23:53,320
Speaker 1: Jalen Warren is out with a hamstring and help. I

1557
01:23:53,320 --> 01:23:55,599
Speaker 1: don't think he goes this week, so it's all Harris

1558
01:23:55,600 --> 01:23:59,080
Speaker 1: alone again, probably a bell cow against the Colts defense

1559
01:23:59,120 --> 01:24:02,040
Speaker 1: that is seeing the second most touches allowed to running

1560
01:24:02,040 --> 01:24:04,960
Speaker 1: backs on the year at twenty nine point two per game,

1561
01:24:05,400 --> 01:24:08,400
Speaker 1: So it seems like twenty five touches for nag Harris

1562
01:24:08,479 --> 01:24:11,000
Speaker 1: might be in the cards. He's no worse than a

1563
01:24:11,040 --> 01:24:13,320
Speaker 1: solid B if that's the case. Considering that the Colts

1564
01:24:13,320 --> 01:24:15,559
Speaker 1: are middle of the pack against the run, it's a

1565
01:24:15,600 --> 01:24:18,000
Speaker 1: bit tougher. In the passing game for the Steelers. Kenny

1566
01:24:18,000 --> 01:24:21,360
Speaker 1: Pickett has looked respectable but not spectacular in any game.

1567
01:24:21,800 --> 01:24:24,400
Speaker 1: His two sixty five last week was his career high,

1568
01:24:24,640 --> 01:24:26,840
Speaker 1: but he hasn't thrown for more than one touchdown pass

1569
01:24:26,880 --> 01:24:29,840
Speaker 1: in any game this year. That's really killing his receivers

1570
01:24:29,840 --> 01:24:33,759
Speaker 1: more than anything. Deonte Johnson hasn't scored all year. George

1571
01:24:33,760 --> 01:24:36,600
Speaker 1: Pickens has managed to run and catch a touchdown in

1572
01:24:36,640 --> 01:24:39,360
Speaker 1: the past two weeks, but the Colts are top four

1573
01:24:39,400 --> 01:24:42,880
Speaker 1: in receiving yards and touchdowns allowed to wide receivers, so

1574
01:24:42,920 --> 01:24:46,840
Speaker 1: I'm trending toward benching Pickett, Pickens, and Deonta All in

1575
01:24:46,880 --> 01:24:49,479
Speaker 1: this one. Yeah, I don't blame you. You can is

1576
01:24:49,520 --> 01:24:51,960
Speaker 1: one of the biggest busts of the year. Yeah. Absolutely,

1577
01:24:52,360 --> 01:24:55,080
Speaker 1: you can throw a dart at Pat fryar Muth though

1578
01:24:55,160 --> 01:25:00,120
Speaker 1: he gets a C grade here. Uh pick wow? Did

1579
01:25:00,120 --> 01:25:03,679
Speaker 1: you always get hit by the dark you? Yes, you are.

1580
01:25:04,760 --> 01:25:07,600
Speaker 1: Pick It targeted him twelve times last week and he

1581
01:25:07,640 --> 01:25:09,840
Speaker 1: caught eight of them for seventy nine yards. And the

1582
01:25:09,840 --> 01:25:12,599
Speaker 1: Colts defense will be they're weaker against the tight end

1583
01:25:12,640 --> 01:25:15,080
Speaker 1: than they are against wide receivers. They've allowed the twelveth

1584
01:25:15,080 --> 01:25:17,800
Speaker 1: the most receiving yards and basically a tight end score

1585
01:25:17,840 --> 01:25:21,040
Speaker 1: every other game this year. Deante Johnson is ninth among

1586
01:25:21,080 --> 01:25:24,000
Speaker 1: wide receivers and targets and he has zero touchdowns. It's

1587
01:25:24,000 --> 01:25:29,800
Speaker 1: not amazing that that's impressive. I'm not gonna lie. On

1588
01:25:29,840 --> 01:25:32,120
Speaker 1: the indie side, I mentioned Matt Ryan was might take

1589
01:25:32,120 --> 01:25:34,920
Speaker 1: a chance on me quarterback, although he will see t J.

1590
01:25:35,080 --> 01:25:37,960
Speaker 1: Watt coming against him this week in his first game

1591
01:25:38,000 --> 01:25:41,400
Speaker 1: back from I R. Paris Campbell, Alec Pierce, and Michael

1592
01:25:41,400 --> 01:25:45,599
Speaker 1: Pittman basically split snaps and targets almost evenly last week

1593
01:25:45,600 --> 01:25:47,840
Speaker 1: against Philly, all of which was on the field for

1594
01:25:47,840 --> 01:25:50,800
Speaker 1: at least of the snaps. I'll give a nod to

1595
01:25:50,880 --> 01:25:54,160
Speaker 1: Pittman and seized both Pierce and Paris Campbell, who was

1596
01:25:54,200 --> 01:25:56,759
Speaker 1: also take take a chance on me worthy from charge.

1597
01:25:57,280 --> 01:26:00,240
Speaker 1: Pittman has the most yardage potential here, and he is

1598
01:26:00,280 --> 01:26:03,439
Speaker 1: a Steelers defense that that's allowing two two receiving yards

1599
01:26:03,479 --> 01:26:06,360
Speaker 1: per game to opposing wide receivers, second highest mark in

1600
01:26:06,400 --> 01:26:08,840
Speaker 1: the league. They're also allowing touchdowns to white outs at

1601
01:26:08,880 --> 01:26:12,040
Speaker 1: an amazing clip. They've given up fourteen this year. It's

1602
01:26:12,080 --> 01:26:14,840
Speaker 1: also second most in the league. Don't mess with the

1603
01:26:14,880 --> 01:26:17,880
Speaker 1: Colts tight ends. Mo Ali Cox is getting most of

1604
01:26:17,880 --> 01:26:19,719
Speaker 1: the work, but it's not a good tight end matchup.

1605
01:26:19,760 --> 01:26:23,280
Speaker 1: And finally, Jonathan Taylor, he's an A grade. This is

1606
01:26:23,280 --> 01:26:26,000
Speaker 1: not the run stuffing Steelers from the past. And since

1607
01:26:26,080 --> 01:26:29,479
Speaker 1: Jeff Saturday took over as head coach, they're feeding Taylor

1608
01:26:29,560 --> 01:26:32,000
Speaker 1: like it's Thanksgiving and it's bread and butter right here.

1609
01:26:32,320 --> 01:26:35,280
Speaker 1: Twenty two carries in both games, a couple of receptions

1610
01:26:35,280 --> 01:26:37,920
Speaker 1: in each game. Better yet, he scored in both games

1611
01:26:37,960 --> 01:26:42,320
Speaker 1: since Saturday took over. So you're gonna start Saturday's favorite

1612
01:26:42,360 --> 01:26:45,559
Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor on Sun Sunday. Absolutely, We're going to you

1613
01:26:45,560 --> 01:26:50,400
Speaker 1: know where's as as We're talking about the Steelers struggling offense.

1614
01:26:50,640 --> 01:26:53,519
Speaker 1: This is a bad season for them. Everybody talks about

1615
01:26:53,520 --> 01:26:58,120
Speaker 1: Belichick without Brady and how he's effectively a five hundred

1616
01:26:58,160 --> 01:27:01,200
Speaker 1: coach since Brady left. Comlin might be starting to get

1617
01:27:01,240 --> 01:27:04,879
Speaker 1: some of this scrutiny, right since Ben left? What has Tomlin?

1618
01:27:05,000 --> 01:27:07,320
Speaker 1: You know that it's not yet. Well know, he was

1619
01:27:07,360 --> 01:27:10,040
Speaker 1: working with the shell of Ben Roethlisberger for the last

1620
01:27:10,040 --> 01:27:12,599
Speaker 1: couple of years too, and it hasn't looked as great.

1621
01:27:12,720 --> 01:27:15,720
Speaker 1: But uh yeah, that's you know, that might be a

1622
01:27:15,760 --> 01:27:18,280
Speaker 1: developing story. I never thought Ben was all that great.

1623
01:27:18,320 --> 01:27:21,479
Speaker 1: He had it prime Antonio super Bowls. He had a

1624
01:27:21,520 --> 01:27:25,280
Speaker 1: prime Santonio homes Seahawks super Bowl. He was awful and

1625
01:27:25,640 --> 01:27:31,959
Speaker 1: that was rig Ben. You go back, it was Seahawks

1626
01:27:31,960 --> 01:27:35,200
Speaker 1: fans will agree with me on that. But anyway, yeah,

1627
01:27:35,479 --> 01:27:38,479
Speaker 1: specifically for you, although Matt you can chime in. I

1628
01:27:38,520 --> 01:27:41,600
Speaker 1: was thinking about there was a kicker Jinks on on Thursday.

1629
01:27:42,120 --> 01:27:45,479
Speaker 1: Can can you jinks your you know, and fantasy players

1630
01:27:45,520 --> 01:27:47,880
Speaker 1: never want to talk about, like say, right now, I'm

1631
01:27:47,880 --> 01:27:50,639
Speaker 1: gonna win the championship, right, Nobody wants to jinx themselves.

1632
01:27:51,200 --> 01:27:56,800
Speaker 1: Can you jinks? A best ball team? Yeah, I think

1633
01:27:56,840 --> 01:27:58,960
Speaker 1: because you can make you can't change anything. I think

1634
01:27:59,000 --> 01:28:02,800
Speaker 1: I've jinx like three hundred of mine. But you need

1635
01:28:04,000 --> 01:28:05,639
Speaker 1: you need is one at the end of the day.

1636
01:28:05,680 --> 01:28:08,960
Speaker 1: But you can't make any moves, you can't trade, you

1637
01:28:08,960 --> 01:28:12,200
Speaker 1: can't screw up anything anymore. I've played a lot of

1638
01:28:12,200 --> 01:28:15,160
Speaker 1: Best Ball past summer, and I've been gone through every roster,

1639
01:28:15,280 --> 01:28:18,599
Speaker 1: But just to go through one and find a complete

1640
01:28:18,640 --> 01:28:21,160
Speaker 1: roster with no like season ending injuries is like the

1641
01:28:21,200 --> 01:28:24,599
Speaker 1: Holy Grail. I think it's it's been brutal. This has

1642
01:28:24,600 --> 01:28:28,559
Speaker 1: been so you say, yes, you can jinks. I can speak,

1643
01:28:28,600 --> 01:28:33,200
Speaker 1: and I can speak into reality. My team losing, my

1644
01:28:33,240 --> 01:28:36,880
Speaker 1: best ball team losing. Yeah, I try to reverse jinks.

1645
01:28:36,880 --> 01:28:38,760
Speaker 1: That doesn't work as much. But uh yeah, I think

1646
01:28:39,320 --> 01:28:41,720
Speaker 1: the jink's only really exists in fantasy football. In this

1647
01:28:41,760 --> 01:28:44,479
Speaker 1: fantasy realm sounds like a bunch of high jinks. Here,

1648
01:28:44,600 --> 01:28:46,680
Speaker 1: kicker jinks is what you say. No, I don't know.

1649
01:28:46,760 --> 01:28:48,960
Speaker 1: I've I've got a best ball team that I'm watching

1650
01:28:49,040 --> 01:28:52,360
Speaker 1: very closely that has a chance to do something special.

1651
01:28:52,439 --> 01:28:54,320
Speaker 1: But then I feel like I can't say anything about it. Well,

1652
01:28:54,360 --> 01:28:56,400
Speaker 1: if you know how to reverse the kicker jinks, uh

1653
01:28:56,840 --> 01:28:58,560
Speaker 1: call up Greg Joseph, you needs it to help me.

1654
01:28:58,640 --> 01:29:01,040
Speaker 1: He does need some help on It's the anti kicker

1655
01:29:01,120 --> 01:29:04,040
Speaker 1: Jinks for sure. Thank you for listening to everybody. If
