Speaker 1: and my co host today are Scott Fish and Matt Harrison. Hello, guys, Hey,

7
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 1: what's going on? Good to be back to Harrison. Yes,

8
00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:44,600
Speaker 1: you're you're already prepping your bend Benducci was sound a

9
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 1: lot like Mario, by the way, No, there's there's no

10
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:50,879
Speaker 1: now correlation there. What happened is they were sick of

11
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:53,320
Speaker 1: people getting three tough questions wrong. So you brought me,

12
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 1: brought you back to hammer away three tough questions. We

13
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: will have three tough questions later in the show. We

14
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 1: will also provide fine players upon whom you can take

15
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 1: a chance premature speculation where we give you players we

16
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 1: believe everybody's gonna want to pick up next week, but

17
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:12,040
Speaker 1: you will already have because you were listening to this show.

18
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:14,959
Speaker 1: And we will break down every game Fantasy style with

19
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 1: letter grades and every meaningful player. First, I want to

20
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:21,280
Speaker 1: start with this guys, we've got our first weekend with

21
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:27,400
Speaker 1: probable weather issues. We've got Green Bay with windy conditions,

22
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:31,320
Speaker 1: Cleveland with wind and rain, Buffalo with rain, and it's

23
00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 1: cold rain at that at this year. So tell me

24
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:39,399
Speaker 1: the point at which you start changing your lineups when

25
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 1: when weather strikes almost never, it has to be it

26
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:48,400
Speaker 1: has to be really really implement Uh. These are these

27
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: are high wind ones, and there's a lot of data

28
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,920
Speaker 1: that supports anything twenty miles per or or less. Uh

29
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: does not change the does not impact the game or

30
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,440
Speaker 1: the fantasy stats too much. If it's twenty five miles

31
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 1: per hour or more and sustained winds with high gus. Uh.

32
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 1: There's a very small sample size of those, but it's

33
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 1: shown that passing attempts go down, Russian attempts go up,

34
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 1: but the Russian attempts aren't as efficient, so the Russian

35
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 1: stats stay about the same and the passing stats go down. Yeah,

36
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:19,920
Speaker 1: so you're gonna see a lot more three and ounce

37
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: and stuff like that, and the long kicking game's gone.

38
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 1: Now all of these games have the threat of that

39
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 1: twenty wins. I mean, that's that is wind is a

40
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 1: bigger deterrent than precipitation is in many cases, you know,

41
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 1: because wind really does affect the ball more than the

42
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,359
Speaker 1: precipitation does kickers. If you play in a league that

43
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: still does kickers if it's very windy, I would usually

44
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 1: take them out of those games. You don't know which

45
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:50,080
Speaker 1: direction they're they're they're going. In that perspective, they'll probably

46
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 1: kick towards the field goal. Well, yeah, but which ways

47
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,639
Speaker 1: the wind going? Now, A wet surface I don't think

48
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 1: changes a lot with kickers, but a flippery surface does.

49
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: So if you've got snow, sleet, or seat, then I

50
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: think you got to be worried about the footing for

51
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 1: the kickers. How about remember that Chicago game where the

52
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,119
Speaker 1: fog was like I think, I don't you can only

53
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 1: see a foot in front of you. That was one

54
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: of the great games of all time. Eventually they moved

55
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 1: the camera down to like field level just you can

56
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 1: sort of see the blobs moving around the field. That

57
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,919
Speaker 1: was a great game. I was in Las Vegas watching

58
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,360
Speaker 1: it with all the other betting degenerates for that game,

59
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,399
Speaker 1: and that was that was a ton Did you bet

60
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 1: the under on that one? You know, I don't remember

61
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 1: that if I did or didn't. But man, with that

62
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 1: a bit a good play, I got it. Although you

63
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:43,000
Speaker 1: would think if the defense can't see the ball, you

64
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: could just run it like any direction you want. The

65
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 1: refs also can't see the ball, so they can't put

66
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 1: their hands up for a touchdown. You just can't out

67
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: in the end zone and wait until somebody finds you anyway. Um,

68
00:03:55,520 --> 00:04:00,560
Speaker 1: Mostly our advice is don't panic. Yeah, right, were Okay,

69
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 1: let's get into some of the matchups, beginning with the

70
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 1: Rams taking on the Dolphins. This is the very first

71
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:08,600
Speaker 1: game for twah. But let's start on the other side

72
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 1: in the field with the Rams and what's been a

73
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: pretty inconsistent passing attack. What do you expect from Jared Goff?

74
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:19,160
Speaker 1: It really has been inconsistent. Goff has multiple touchdowns and

75
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 1: five of his six, but he's just averaging over two

76
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 1: hundred fifty yards per game. He's only passing the ball

77
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: thirty two times per games. That's part of the problem. Yeah,

78
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,479
Speaker 1: he's not not passing the ball a ton. The Dolphins

79
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,679
Speaker 1: d though, has been lit up by some good qbs

80
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,919
Speaker 1: and held down bad qbs like you know what the

81
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,919
Speaker 1: average defense generally does. Goff probably finds himself on the

82
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 1: upper end of those average quarterbacks, maybe two hundred plus

83
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 1: yards one of two touchdowns. I'm giving him a C.

84
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 1: I I don't know that it's starting, but he is

85
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 1: also not going to kill you if you throw them in. Yeah,

86
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 1: it sounds right. Uh, Cooper Cup, I'm gonna give him

87
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 1: a B. Cup has the match you want here. He's

88
00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,719
Speaker 1: leading the team in targets, catches, yards, only has one

89
00:04:56,760 --> 00:05:00,760
Speaker 1: game with fewer than four grabs. Best cornerback matchup as well.

90
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 1: Give me Cup with a B. Woods. He's getting to see.

91
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 1: He's still been consistent, but not the consistent he was

92
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 1: over the last couple of years, like like consistent on

93
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:14,919
Speaker 1: a slightly lower level. Um. He might get Xavien Howard

94
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 1: in this one, which is a little concerning, but he's

95
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 1: been very good. Yeah, I wouldn't blame you for benching him,

96
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,599
Speaker 1: but I'm guessing you probably don't have a lot of

97
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 1: better options than uh, Robert Woods with the potential target share,

98
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 1: he could get Robert C. Grade for Robert Woods the

99
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 1: rest of the passing in and I'm benching. I know

100
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 1: Reynolds has had a good game last week, I can't

101
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,799
Speaker 1: trust it this week against a better defense. Higbie and Everett.

102
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,279
Speaker 1: If Higbee does go, they're definitely benched. If he doesn't,

103
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,720
Speaker 1: I can't trust evert. You know, he's he's a two

104
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:49,040
Speaker 1: to three catch twenty at thirty five yard guy. So uh, Henderson,

105
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 1: I am given a b too. Though he's outtouched Brown

106
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: forty seven to twenty nine of the last three weeks

107
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 1: getting getting a lot of the It's it's crazy because

108
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,480
Speaker 1: he's now the guy getting the goal line work too. Um,

109
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 1: let's see three running backs under the age of thirty

110
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,480
Speaker 1: seven to hit that, to hit the fourteen plus touch volume,

111
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,600
Speaker 1: that's a Frank Gore stat and take him out of it. Uh,

112
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 1: to hit the fourteen plus touch volume, all hit a

113
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 1: hundred yards against the Dolphins, I think I think Henderson

114
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,400
Speaker 1: can get that fourteen touches, So I think he's got

115
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,040
Speaker 1: the possibility to get near a hundred yards. And this

116
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,160
Speaker 1: surprised me. About Henderson fourth in the NFL in red

117
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 1: zone carries and fourth in the NFL in goal line carriers,

118
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 1: you would think it would add up to bigger splash

119
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,920
Speaker 1: with fantasy game. It's shocking, but at some point that's

120
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 1: gotta flip. If you're getting that many opportunities in those spots.

121
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:39,400
Speaker 1: It's gonna work. It's got to work out eventually. By

122
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,360
Speaker 1: the way, side note on Darrell Henderson Pro Football Focus

123
00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:48,440
Speaker 1: his highest rated healthy running back right now, Well, still

124
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 1: give the ball to Malcolm Brown out of all six

125
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 1: of them. Right on the other side, we got to

126
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 1: a tongue of iloa. I like that. There's no one

127
00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 1: in there, but there's kind of there is. You have

128
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,120
Speaker 1: to say it like there's a pretend there's an end

129
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 1: yes to a tongue of violoa. Uh. He's left handed

130
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,039
Speaker 1: and the only left hander in the league, so I

131
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:11,080
Speaker 1: expect that to completely confuse opposing defenses who were unaware

132
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 1: that keps are allowed to throw with the other hand.

133
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 1: Not since Michael Vick have we seen a south paw.

134
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 1: I was gonna say they probably saw the Hopes do

135
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,280
Speaker 1: it once but assumed it was some kind of wizardry

136
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,880
Speaker 1: or something. I'm I'm giving him a C grade here.

137
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 1: I think he's got enough weapons. I I think we

138
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 1: saw enough in the first game here, and it's it's

139
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 1: the middle of the road match up against the Rams defense.

140
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 1: The problem is, I need Parker to be healthy. It

141
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: sounds like he is. Sounds like he's gonna go if

142
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 1: he goes. Yeah, but then there's Jalen Ramsey. Yeah, yeah,

143
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 1: I'm still getting That's why he's getting the C grade.

144
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 1: If he goes, he's not getting the A grade or

145
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 1: a B grade. Uh. You have to imagine two is

146
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 1: going to lean on his best option, but he will

147
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 1: get Jalen Ramsey. As we just mentioned, the question is

148
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 1: how many targets will he see? He was averaging at

149
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 1: least seven a game, but had some low ones and

150
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 1: has been banged up. Ramsay has held down posing wide receivers,

151
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 1: and the receivers he covers don't get a lot of targets.

152
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 1: They don't throw at him much, so that's the concern.

153
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 1: They're there. Yeah. I think it's like two and a

154
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 1: half targets per game, two point three nine or something

155
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 1: like that. Some ridiculous. Uh. Preston Williams I have on

156
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 1: the bench. He's he's scoring three of the last four.

157
00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 1: But I guess how many catches Preston Williams has on

158
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 1: the season total. It's gonna be low. It's gonna be

159
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: like twenty. It's twelve twelve twelve catches on the season.

160
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 1: You can't count on anything there bench. Even though I

161
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 1: love him, Gasecky, I'm giving giving a seed two. And

162
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:44,840
Speaker 1: I found this really interesting this week. Mike Kasecki has

163
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 1: been practicing with two on the scout team all year,

164
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 1: and I don't know what that says about Gasecky. And

165
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 1: they just shigned signed Adam Schihen to this new deal.

166
00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 1: Two other tight ends besides Gasseki scored touchdowns in their

167
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 1: last game. Yeah, I'm really I don't know what to

168
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:10,199
Speaker 1: make of that. It doesn't like yeah, has scored in

169
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 1: two straight as well, but you gotta figure Gisiki is

170
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:15,560
Speaker 1: going to be the guy with that much work timing

171
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 1: with twa. The other tight end, by the way, was

172
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 1: Dirham smythe who sounds kind of like a like a

173
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 1: minor league baseball team, like the Durham Smith or something.

174
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,680
Speaker 1: It sounds like a whiskey brand. I can see that too. Yeah,

175
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:30,080
Speaker 1: there's it's a good name. I like his name. Uh.

176
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:33,840
Speaker 1: This is a ramsdy that allowed nine for one to

177
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 1: the Bears tight ends and seven to one O nine

178
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 1: and a touchdown to Kittle over the last two weeks.

179
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 1: She he only ran fourteen routes in the last two weeks,

180
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: where Gisicky is on the field almost all the time,

181
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,080
Speaker 1: so I think it's more luck that she had those

182
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,080
Speaker 1: couple of big plays. I gotta see grade on GHASICKI,

183
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 1: but I like him a little bit more than that

184
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 1: Miles Gaskon b Grade. The Rams have allowed five different

185
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 1: running backs to have four plus catches. Gaskin has hit

186
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,960
Speaker 1: that in all but one game. Uh. He only has

187
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 1: one touchdown, but the Rams uh have and the Rams

188
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 1: have only allowed three running backs to score. But gascon

189
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 1: as thirteen plus touches and all the games the seven

190
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 1: running backs who had thirteen plus touches all total ninety

191
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 1: two or more yards. I think there's a safe floor here,

192
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:21,120
Speaker 1: taking very safe Raiders take on the Browns Matt and Josh.

193
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:25,839
Speaker 1: Jacobs has been really underperforming expectations, and it might feel

194
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,440
Speaker 1: like a trip to the Browns and bad weather would

195
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:30,319
Speaker 1: be perfect for him, But the Browns are actually sneaky

196
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 1: good against the run. Yeah, he only had thirty two

197
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 1: snaps last week. That's really low, only ten rushing attempts

198
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 1: for seventeen yards. Granted he was playing the Bucks and

199
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 1: they're really great against the run, but he's been limited

200
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,079
Speaker 1: in practice this week with a knee injury too, and

201
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:48,679
Speaker 1: the Browns are only allowing sixty eight rushing yards per game.

202
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,400
Speaker 1: That's top five in the league. You put that all together,

203
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 1: I'm putting Josh Jacobs on the bench this week. That's

204
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,320
Speaker 1: that's all right. There we go, given what he's done

205
00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 1: for the past month. You want bold, how about Da

206
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,840
Speaker 1: car getting an A grade over two hundred sixty yards

207
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:07,680
Speaker 1: and multiple touchdowns in five straight which is impressive considering

208
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 1: his very weird wide receiver corps. The matchup is right though.

209
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:14,199
Speaker 1: The Browns have allowed three hundred six yards and two

210
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 1: and a third passing scores per game this year. That

211
00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 1: means Darren Waller is also in play with an A grade.

212
00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,319
Speaker 1: The Browns are bottom ten in receptions, yards and touchdowns

213
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 1: allowed to tight ends, and Waller is averaging the most

214
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 1: targets amongst tight ends per game at nine point two.

215
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:35,280
Speaker 1: The wide receivers are just like David s Pumpkins their

216
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:40,680
Speaker 1: own fang. I don't have any idea what you're referencing

217
00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 1: right there, Betty questions any questions. By the way, I

218
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 1: can see that with Waller if if the weather is

219
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 1: really bad, I can see a lot of Waller dumping

220
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 1: off so Brian Edwards was still limited in practice this

221
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:54,440
Speaker 1: week with a foot and ankle injury. I think he's

222
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,120
Speaker 1: probably not going to go. Nelson agil Are played the

223
00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:00,280
Speaker 1: most snaps among the wide receiver group last week, is

224
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,839
Speaker 1: quietly scored in three straight but only has twenty targets

225
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 1: on the season, so I'll give him a C grade

226
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 1: along with Henry Ruggs, who was on the field of

227
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 1: the snaps last week. The problem with Ruggs as he's

228
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 1: averaging two receptions per game despite being on the field

229
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,320
Speaker 1: all the time, so he gets the C. Because the

230
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 1: Browns are allowing sixteen receptions for two yards and a

231
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 1: score and a half per game to the wide receiver position,

232
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,559
Speaker 1: which also puts Hunter Renfroll in play with a C.

233
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 1: But he was only on the field for just over

234
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 1: half the snaps last week. It's a mess in their

235
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 1: wide receiver corps, so that's why they're all getting SS.

236
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,480
Speaker 1: Let's flip on over to the brown side, where Baker

237
00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,840
Speaker 1: Mayfield is getting a B grade. Baker had five touchdown

238
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 1: passes last week after O'Dell went down with an a

239
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,040
Speaker 1: c L injury on the second play of the game,

240
00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 1: but he's only averaging a d passing yards per game.

241
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,599
Speaker 1: That's twenty five among quarterbacks. The good thing is the

242
00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:54,720
Speaker 1: Raiders have allowed at least two seventy yards to every

243
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:58,200
Speaker 1: quarterback they've faced who is not named Cam Newton, and

244
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 1: each of the last three quarterbacks they faced have thrown

245
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:04,240
Speaker 1: for multiple scores. Jarvis Landry is still dealing with a

246
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,960
Speaker 1: rib injury and has been limited in practice all week,

247
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 1: but I'll still give him a b. He hasn't scored

248
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 1: yet this year, but he was Baker's favorite target way

249
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:15,960
Speaker 1: back in the day before O'Dell got to Cleveland, so

250
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,080
Speaker 1: I think there might be something there. There's a couple

251
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 1: of other sneaky wide receivers to put on your radar.

252
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:24,520
Speaker 1: Rashard Richard Higgins played of the snaps last week. Donovan

253
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 1: people Donovan, People's Jones. It's plural people's. He's the people's um,

254
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,679
Speaker 1: the rookie out of Michigan. He played sixty nine per

255
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:39,679
Speaker 1: cent of the snaps last week. Come on, Brian, Brian's

256
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 1: not here. It's just it's just everybody does it. It's

257
00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:47,600
Speaker 1: just there's something fresh, interesting, there's it's not to me.

258
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,200
Speaker 1: It's just everybody does it. You know what, Sometimes you

259
00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:56,320
Speaker 1: just do things like happy Birthday friends up Cliff. So

260
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,960
Speaker 1: the Raiders are allowing thirteen receptions per game to the

261
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 1: wider run, but they're allowing big yardage totals of a

262
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 1: hundred and eighty yards, so that favors the home run hitter.

263
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 1: Donovan Peoples Jones is the home run hitter. He's averaging

264
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,680
Speaker 1: eighteen points seven yards per catch. I'll give him a

265
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,600
Speaker 1: sea and leave Higgins on the bench. Harrison Bryant out

266
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 1: snapped David and Joku last week and Peacocks to Brian

267
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 1: by the way for his bold Harrison Bryant call two

268
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 1: touchdowns last week. I'll give Bryant a solid SEA in

269
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 1: this game because Austin Hooper's out again and Vegas is

270
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:33,280
Speaker 1: the middle of the pack tight end defense, but they've

271
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 1: cracked recently, allowing fifteen catches, a hundred ninety yards and

272
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 1: two scores to the tight end over their last two games. Finally,

273
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:42,840
Speaker 1: Kareem Hunt is an ah. The Raiders are allowing four

274
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:46,120
Speaker 1: point nine yards per carry and Dearness Johnson was only

275
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 1: on the field for two snaps last week, so it's

276
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 1: all Kareem Hunt, all the time, all the time. I've

277
00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 1: got the Jets taking on the Chiefs. This is not

278
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 1: going to take very long. No, it won't know, so

279
00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,920
Speaker 1: sneak this one into this first segment. Uh, there's a

280
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 1: only one starter for the Jets, and it's at a

281
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 1: C grade, and that's LaMichael p Ryan. The Jets stubbornly

282
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 1: run the ball even when trailing badly. P Ryan over

283
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 1: the past two weeks has almost as many snaps as

284
00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,280
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry and Josh Jacobs, so he's getting enough use

285
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:18,240
Speaker 1: here in recent games. Philip Lindsay DeVante Booker had success

286
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 1: running against Kansas City, so depending on the health of

287
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,240
Speaker 1: New York's offensive line, p Ryan could surprise us with

288
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 1: a few decent runs here, and he's a plausible starter

289
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 1: in a bye week with a C grade. Everybody else

290
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 1: is on the bench. Jamison Crowder's out with injury, Brishad

291
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,720
Speaker 1: Perriman likely doesn't get through the concussion protocol. Let's talk

292
00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 1: about Denzel Mims, who's also on the bench here. Um,

293
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 1: he got his first action last week, didn't do a

294
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:40,520
Speaker 1: ton with it. He runs most of his routes on

295
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 1: the right side of the field, where I get overmatched

296
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 1: by cornerback chair various wards. So he's on the bench.

297
00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 1: But let's mention this about Denzel Mims. If you're in

298
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:52,040
Speaker 1: a dynasty or an empire league, think about the rest

299
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 1: of his career with Trevor Lawrence and no Adam Gaze

300
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 1: and be thinking about what Denzel Mims would be worth

301
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 1: to you in one because now is the time to

302
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 1: trade for Denzel Mims. It will cost you very little

303
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,640
Speaker 1: in a dynasty or an empire league, and he has

304
00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 1: the potential to blossom big time next year. All future

305
00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 1: peacock that can is that a pre cock precock that

306
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 1: with the time machine and the peacock together. You know,

307
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 1: Brian had him as his premature speculation last week. Yes, so,

308
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:28,440
Speaker 1: I mean, but he didn't say it was premature spect

309
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 1: that's really prema very premature. Let's go to the Kansas

310
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:34,080
Speaker 1: city side, where Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelsey are obvious

311
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 1: A's I'm more worried about the Chiefs running games, sniping

312
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,240
Speaker 1: them through than than on the ground than really the Jets,

313
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:44,040
Speaker 1: much like last week's blowout win when they didn't need

314
00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,880
Speaker 1: to perform in the second half and didn't uh. Tyrey

315
00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,200
Speaker 1: Hill also in a grade New York I was a

316
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:52,200
Speaker 1: healthy fourteen catches for one eighty yards per game to

317
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,040
Speaker 1: wide receivers, and that's great news for Hill, who out

318
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:57,800
Speaker 1: targeted all the other Chiefs whiteouts last week. But he

319
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 1: does have a sneaky tough matchup with slot enter back

320
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:04,840
Speaker 1: Brian Pool, who is ProFootball focuses fifth highest graded cornerback.

321
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 1: But Hill can run from everywhere. He just mostly runs

322
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,679
Speaker 1: from the slot, so it wouldn't take a lot for

323
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,840
Speaker 1: Andy Reid to just design more plays for Hill outside

324
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 1: because he runs there anyway, so there's no saying that

325
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:19,160
Speaker 1: he even actually gets the Brian Pool matchup in this one.

326
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:23,080
Speaker 1: Sticking with the passing game, c grades as dart throws

327
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 1: for DeMarcus Robinson and Icole Hardman. These are low volume guys,

328
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:31,040
Speaker 1: but plausible dart throws. With Sammy Watkins out, Both guys

329
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:34,880
Speaker 1: have got positive matchups against dreadful cornerbacks Pierre to see

330
00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:40,359
Speaker 1: her and Blessing in Austin. You made that name up. Then, lastly,

331
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 1: let's go to the running games. Clyde Edwards Hilaire. Since

332
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,200
Speaker 1: the Bell trade, I think we can agree. Clyde Edwards

333
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:49,160
Speaker 1: Layers posted his two best NFL games, Putting the pressure

334
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:52,560
Speaker 1: on him is damaging six yards per carry. Since the trade,

335
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:55,000
Speaker 1: I think he will still see most of the work

336
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 1: against a medium bad run defense for the Jets. They

337
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 1: ranked twenty three yards per carry allowed their twenty three

338
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,639
Speaker 1: in rushing yards per game. There twenty six in rushing

339
00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,119
Speaker 1: attempts per game. So I think there's enough work to

340
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,480
Speaker 1: get a B grade on Clyde Edwards Hilaire. So what

341
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 1: about Lavy on Bell in a revenge game for Brian

342
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 1: who's not here? Last week in a blowout when he

343
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 1: got seventeen snaps, which isn't a ton six carries, that's

344
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 1: a decent amount for a first game with the team. Though, yeah,

345
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 1: I'd agree it's not bad. Uh six carries and he

346
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,240
Speaker 1: averaged six and a half yards per carry, and you

347
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,440
Speaker 1: might say, well, okay, that was in a blowout win.

348
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:30,639
Speaker 1: So why not put Bell in at the end of

349
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:31,920
Speaker 1: the game, which is a lot of when he got

350
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 1: his work. But this is gonna be a blowout win too.

351
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:37,080
Speaker 1: It's the Jets, so Bell is gonna find his way

352
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 1: back on the field here. Um. He they didn't throw

353
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,879
Speaker 1: to him at all last week, but the Chiefs barely

354
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 1: through the ball period and that could change here. I

355
00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:47,200
Speaker 1: still believe Bell will get goal line looks if the

356
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 1: opportunity presents itself, and I think he will start to

357
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 1: catch more passes. I've got a C grade hammer hammer

358
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,280
Speaker 1: the bell score. Bell scores a touchdown in this Oh

359
00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:01,920
Speaker 1: you like that alright, Chief's favorite one. In some circles,

360
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:06,359
Speaker 1: it's between ninete that is, that's that's a big number.

361
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 1: I have reason. I have reason to believe that is

362
00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:11,840
Speaker 1: a very big number. When we come back, take a

363
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 1: chance on me. Nine players not normally, not normally in

364
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,360
Speaker 1: your starting lineup. We'll tell you who they are. Who

365
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:20,719
Speaker 1: you can get off the waiver wire, plug into your lineup.

366
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:58,560
Speaker 1: When we return to Fantasy Football Weekly, Welcome Day Football Weekly,

367
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,679
Speaker 1: Paul Charching from Guillotine leagu dot com, Scott Fish and

368
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:04,320
Speaker 1: Matt Harrison take a chance to take a cheer, to

369
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 1: take a chance on it's growing on me. It is.

370
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,280
Speaker 1: It is growing at me like a fungus and nothing

371
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:12,399
Speaker 1: nothing to do with this. So you get that checked out.

372
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 1: You have a lot of those. I really don't take

373
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:17,600
Speaker 1: a chance on me. Nine players not normally in your

374
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 1: starting line up. Many of them are available on the

375
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,960
Speaker 1: waiver wire. Let's begin at the quarterback position. Scott Fish.

376
00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 1: I know this guy is because I picked him up

377
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 1: in two of my leagues in the last week, but

378
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:31,359
Speaker 1: he's probably half owners are more. I'm going with Carson Wentz.

379
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 1: Don't look now, but the Cowboys are top five in

380
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 1: most points allowed through seven weeks in NFL history. That's

381
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 1: a healthy thirty four points seven points per game they're allowing.

382
00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,800
Speaker 1: Uh with Washington and buy winner of this one leads

383
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,440
Speaker 1: leads to the division is a three win team. So

384
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:52,040
Speaker 1: I think Carson Wentz is gonna be on fire. The

385
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 1: Cowboys have allowed multiple touchdowns to five quarterbacks and Wentz

386
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 1: has had multiple touchdowns in all but one game, and

387
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,760
Speaker 1: he's put five more touchdowns in with his legs too,

388
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 1: so there's always that that floor as well. Go pick

389
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:06,720
Speaker 1: him up. I love just he just plays with so

390
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 1: much heart, and I know he makes a handful of

391
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:12,080
Speaker 1: really bad plays every game that just you cringe, But man,

392
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:16,200
Speaker 1: he just he wants to win so overtly and far

393
00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:21,400
Speaker 1: light without all the armed talent, and yeah, maybe that's

394
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 1: the light. Yeah, that's the light part. Okay, who is

395
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,119
Speaker 1: you to take a chance in the quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo

396
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 1: has been super solid in his last two games, hitting

397
00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,119
Speaker 1: at least two hundred sixty five yards in both with

398
00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,119
Speaker 1: three touchdown passes against the pretty good Rams defense. But

399
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:39,160
Speaker 1: Jimmy g really thrives on super bad secondaries because last year,

400
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,119
Speaker 1: remember he killed the Cardinals twice and they were amongst

401
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,480
Speaker 1: the worst secondary in the league last year. And this

402
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,359
Speaker 1: year he's going to kill the Seahawks twice, who are

403
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 1: allowing a shocking forty eight passing attempts per game for

404
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 1: three d seventy four yards and two scores per game.

405
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,920
Speaker 1: The Seattle defense is on pace to allow six thousand

406
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:03,439
Speaker 1: and passing yards. It's crazy. I keep thinking, I mean,

407
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:05,680
Speaker 1: these are the kinds of stats you normally will hear,

408
00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:08,240
Speaker 1: like through the first three games of the year, right,

409
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:11,920
Speaker 1: and then teams start to normalize. We're like at the

410
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:15,639
Speaker 1: halfway point and we're still talking about nothing's normal here. No,

411
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:19,439
Speaker 1: it is weird. Um. The funny thing about Kirk Cousins

412
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:22,479
Speaker 1: lousy season, and he's actually a better fantasy producer in

413
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 1: many ways. He's been fantasy relevant in four of six

414
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 1: games this year because the Vikings are constantly playing from behind,

415
00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:31,199
Speaker 1: and the volume has been there for him where it

416
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:34,040
Speaker 1: hasn't been in years past, he's um This week he

417
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,199
Speaker 1: sees the Packers, a team that he posted a good

418
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 1: game against in Week one, a lot of it in

419
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:39,639
Speaker 1: garbage time, but that's gonna be the case here too.

420
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,000
Speaker 1: The Packers have a good past defense, but they have

421
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,680
Speaker 1: allowed multiple touchdowns to five of six opposing quarterbacks. Kirk

422
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,159
Speaker 1: Cousins this time around, on like Week one, has got

423
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:52,439
Speaker 1: a red hot Justin Jefferson available as well, and that

424
00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:56,280
Speaker 1: will help make Kirk Cousins that take a chance of me. Quarterback, Scott,

425
00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,439
Speaker 1: let's go to the running back position. Who is your player?

426
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:01,639
Speaker 1: I got JK dobby in this one. I kind of

427
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,400
Speaker 1: like both Gus Edwards and JK Dobbins here, but Dobbins

428
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:07,320
Speaker 1: is the better pass catcher. Gus Edwards has three targets

429
00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 1: and no catches on the season, So I'm gonna go

430
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:13,920
Speaker 1: with the better floor and the more explosive player in JK. Dobbins. Uh.

431
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 1: It sounds like mark Ingram is going to be out

432
00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:19,200
Speaker 1: with that mid to high ankle spreen giving the opportunity here.

433
00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,639
Speaker 1: The Steelers are have been good against opposing runners, but

434
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 1: I think with Dobbins Dobbins floor and if if he

435
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 1: starts producing and has explosive plays. I think he's going

436
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:32,320
Speaker 1: to take away more touches than Gus will Matt. I've

437
00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 1: got Jim Michael hasty because the forty Niners have the

438
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:40,879
Speaker 1: best team running back total in the league. They're running

439
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:44,760
Speaker 1: backs are averaging a hundred and ninety one total yards

440
00:23:44,800 --> 00:23:48,680
Speaker 1: per game and almost two scores per game. That backfield

441
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 1: has included big days from Raheem Mostert, Jack McKinnon, and

442
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:55,000
Speaker 1: Jeff Wilson, everybody on roster, basically all of which are

443
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:58,320
Speaker 1: either out or trending in a bad way. As McKinnon

444
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:02,120
Speaker 1: is supposedly dealing with fared legs, I think he bounces

445
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 1: back and plays a bunch of this game maybe, and

446
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:07,520
Speaker 1: Tevin Coleman might return. They haven't taken him off five

447
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 1: r yet, but let's get hasty here, because he's averaging

448
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:14,240
Speaker 1: five point two yards per carry on the season. Seattle

449
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 1: has been okay against opposing backs, but Kyle Shanahan scheming

450
00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,919
Speaker 1: a running back game that's way better than Seattle's rundy

451
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 1: might take a chance of me. Running back is Boston Scott.

452
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,000
Speaker 1: Miles Sanders not expected to play in this game, so

453
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 1: Philadelphia will start Boston Scott Cowboys allowing one hundred sixty

454
00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:33,480
Speaker 1: two total yards per game, fourth most to opposing running backs.

455
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,200
Speaker 1: It's been even worse the last two games, where they're

456
00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:40,639
Speaker 1: averaging thirty rushes against almost two hundred total yards and

457
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,560
Speaker 1: one one and a half touchdowns per game to opposing

458
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 1: running backs. I hear they give up a lot of

459
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 1: points to that Dallas Cowboys defense. I heard that just

460
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:49,520
Speaker 1: moments ago, that they give up a lot of points.

461
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,679
Speaker 1: Um Scott is going to be an excellent play with

462
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 1: the percentage of snaps he's likely to see. Saw sent

463
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:57,439
Speaker 1: the snaps last week, and so I think that's the

464
00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:01,080
Speaker 1: same thing here. Strong play Boston, Scott Fish. Can you

465
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:03,960
Speaker 1: do a Boston accent because I'd really like to hear one.

466
00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,560
Speaker 1: Probably not, but people don't know this, but we're Halloween

467
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 1: costumes costumes today and I'm wearing a side from Boston

468
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:17,639
Speaker 1: Market and Matt is wearing an Ardvark costume. There's the

469
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:19,879
Speaker 1: there's something you can make the noise too, Can you

470
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:25,440
Speaker 1: really with the button? That's probably actually pretty good. Let's

471
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 1: go to the receivers for take a chance on me, Scott.

472
00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 1: I'm going with a tight end with Albert Kua buonum. Uh,

473
00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:36,400
Speaker 1: don't look now again, but Albert oh has thirteen targets

474
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:40,240
Speaker 1: in the last two games. With injuries continuing to rack up,

475
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:44,080
Speaker 1: and uh, we might be without Tim Patrick this week.

476
00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:46,760
Speaker 1: Lock has been you know, with all these injuries, Lock

477
00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:50,199
Speaker 1: has been reverting back looking for his old Missouri teammate

478
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:54,119
Speaker 1: that he threw seventeen touchdowns to normally that played in

479
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:57,720
Speaker 1: college together. Think they never works. It almost never works.

480
00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,119
Speaker 1: But I think this amount of injuries and the the

481
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 1: weird playout a lock. Maybe it's actually working out right

482
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 1: now because it has to. So I'm going with Albert Matt.

483
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,480
Speaker 1: Your previous two selections were both forty niners. Who do

484
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:12,680
Speaker 1: you got first this time? How about a forty niner

485
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:17,200
Speaker 1: You don't say, Yeah, Brandon Aiyuk, who as of recently

486
00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:20,840
Speaker 1: was only like thirty five owned in ESPN leagues, so

487
00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:24,119
Speaker 1: he's still pick up a bull. He's top two hundred

488
00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:26,800
Speaker 1: yards or scored in four of his last five games.

489
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 1: Deebo Samuel is out for this one, leaving Ayuk as

490
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:33,160
Speaker 1: the clear number one, with only Kendrick Bourne and Trent

491
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,480
Speaker 1: Taylor as the additional wide receiver options. And you've heard

492
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:40,000
Speaker 1: of Seattle's defense, right, I have I have heard about

493
00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:45,440
Speaker 1: Seattle's They're allowing twenty two catches two eighty yards per game,

494
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:49,840
Speaker 1: just too wide receivers. If Iuke has half of that,

495
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:53,560
Speaker 1: that's eleven. We'll take it. Yeah, we'll take that. Could

496
00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:56,399
Speaker 1: be a breakout game for Brandon Aiyuk might take a

497
00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,320
Speaker 1: chance of the receiver is a much more of just

498
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:03,000
Speaker 1: a safe play. And that's Greg Ward only owned in

499
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 1: seventeen percent of leagues going up against Dallas. DeShawn Jackson's out,

500
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:08,600
Speaker 1: he's injured again, and I think, by the way, I

501
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:11,400
Speaker 1: think it's a career for for Deshaun Jackson. A Ward

502
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:15,800
Speaker 1: quietly averaging six targets over the past five games, and

503
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:18,639
Speaker 1: he's found the end zone three times. But this is

504
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 1: a good matchup in the slot for him as well.

505
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 1: The Cowboys have allowed multiple touchdowns to receivers in four

506
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:27,359
Speaker 1: of the past five games, and if multiple receivers are

507
00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:29,119
Speaker 1: gonna get paid, I think Greg Ward has got a

508
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:32,120
Speaker 1: very good chance of being one of those guys. Four

509
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 1: of the twelve wide out touchdowns Dallas has given up

510
00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,640
Speaker 1: has gone to the slot. Ward has got a very

511
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,439
Speaker 1: favorable one on one matchup against Jordan Lewis, who has

512
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,240
Speaker 1: given up two scores and is allowing a passer rating

513
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:47,720
Speaker 1: of one hundred eleven in his coverage. Let's go back

514
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:52,640
Speaker 1: to the matchups. Scott Fish the Colts take on the Lions.

515
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:56,440
Speaker 1: T Y Hilton is being outright dropped in many leagues

516
00:27:56,440 --> 00:28:00,879
Speaker 1: and understandably so. Does he have a chance against a

517
00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:05,720
Speaker 1: pretty bad secondary? No? I still don't think so. Okay.

518
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:08,680
Speaker 1: In fact, I don't like much of this passing game.

519
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:12,160
Speaker 1: Rivers finally had his first startable Fantasy Day last week

520
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:15,000
Speaker 1: since week one. Like I have him on the bench,

521
00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 1: I have Pascal on the beach. I know it's in

522
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:19,560
Speaker 1: okay match up, it's actually more middle of the pack,

523
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:22,639
Speaker 1: but the Colts have had a different target leader at

524
00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:27,840
Speaker 1: wide receiver in three straight weeks at this point. The Lions, yeah,

525
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:32,120
Speaker 1: tenth worst against wide receivers. Uh, but if you look

526
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 1: into it, the the receivers that did well that made

527
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 1: those giant amounts that got them to tenth worst. Hopkins

528
00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 1: huge game, Julio huge game, and Keeling Cole had a

529
00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 1: fifty one yard, a thirty five yard, and twenty four

530
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,840
Speaker 1: yard catch in garbage time to get his hundred sixty

531
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:50,920
Speaker 1: yard day or whatever the big days have come from

532
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,120
Speaker 1: garbage time are true studs. The Colts don't have any

533
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,640
Speaker 1: of those guys, so I have the passing game on

534
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,480
Speaker 1: the bench except for Tree Burton, who has five red

535
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:01,960
Speaker 1: zone targe gets in the last three games, and that

536
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:05,400
Speaker 1: doesn't even count his goal line touchdown run. So he's

537
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 1: getting available in a lot of leaks. By the way,

538
00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:09,960
Speaker 1: Trey Burton, Yeah, he's got five or more targets in

539
00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:13,440
Speaker 1: each game he's played. With tight ends the way they are,

540
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:17,480
Speaker 1: I'll give him a sea here. The Lions have allowed

541
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 1: every tight end to get at least every tight end

542
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:21,640
Speaker 1: with at least three targets have top sixty five yards

543
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:24,480
Speaker 1: are scored. I think Burton can get that, so CE

544
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 1: grade on him. I'm giving a B grade on Taylor, though,

545
00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:29,760
Speaker 1: I think finally this is a game where Taylor might

546
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:33,000
Speaker 1: might start to uh show a little bit. The problem

547
00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 1: is he's broken eleven tackles this year. He's got that

548
00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:39,000
Speaker 1: great offensive line and he's not breaking tackles. That's that's

549
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 1: a big problem. Lions are fifth worst against opposing running backs.

550
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:46,520
Speaker 1: Taylor has been pretty pedestrian, but he's going to get

551
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,560
Speaker 1: all the carries he's been getting all the carries, and

552
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:52,880
Speaker 1: the lines have allowed nine touchdowns in six games nine

553
00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 1: times nine time. All running backs to top fourteen fourteen

554
00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 1: touches is which Taylor gets every single game have top

555
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 1: seventy yards or scored. I think Taylor can get that.

556
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 1: I'm giving him be grade here. On the other side,

557
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:13,080
Speaker 1: the Colts have been surprisingly very good against fantasy quarterbacks.

558
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 1: They have allowed just seven passing touchdowns in six games. Uh,

559
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:21,320
Speaker 1: they did. They did allow rushing touchdown, but since Philip

560
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 1: Rivers is the only quarterback in starting quarterback in the

561
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 1: NFL with zero yards rushing zero, he's at zero. He's

562
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 1: the only quarterball have three yard rush and three kneel downs,

563
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:36,560
Speaker 1: so uh, and they have allowed the fewest passing yards

564
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,480
Speaker 1: by a pretty fairly wide martian. So I have Stafford

565
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:42,560
Speaker 1: on the bench, I have Galladay with an A grade.

566
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,120
Speaker 1: I don't care if he gets rhads or if he

567
00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:48,960
Speaker 1: gets Rocky sin. Those two have stayed on their sides,

568
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 1: and Marvin Jones and Golliday switch, So yeah, you're gonna

569
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:55,840
Speaker 1: see Golliday and Marvin Jones get equal shares of each

570
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:58,920
Speaker 1: I'm going to give Marvin Jones a C because on

571
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 1: the time sees up the aainst Xavier Roads. Do you

572
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:05,080
Speaker 1: remember what Marvin Jones did to Xavier Roads, destroyed him

573
00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:07,240
Speaker 1: as a Viking. I'm just giving a secrete based on

574
00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:11,400
Speaker 1: that alone. Obviously three touchdowns coming from Marvin Jones in

575
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 1: this game could be. But by the way, and I'm

576
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:17,840
Speaker 1: betting this is a weird status I pulled in as

577
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:21,760
Speaker 1: I was looking against the against the Colts here, no

578
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 1: receiver shorter than six three his top sixty five yards

579
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:29,160
Speaker 1: on them. That is weird. So you need to be

580
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:33,440
Speaker 1: a big wide receiver or Marvin Jones, Xavier Rhodes. So

581
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:36,800
Speaker 1: I'm giving a beta Hackinson at least fifty yards and

582
00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:39,600
Speaker 1: or a touchdown in every game this year. I know

583
00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 1: that's the the you know for everybody that sort of

584
00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 1: got out of Hockinson last year with the injury played

585
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:48,880
Speaker 1: rookie season maybe one year too early. Yeah well yeah,

586
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,360
Speaker 1: I mean back now tight ends rookie years. Anyway, I

587
00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:54,120
Speaker 1: know there's that tell that to Harrison Bryan and the

588
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 1: Colts have not been tested at all at tighten. They

589
00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 1: they're good against sight ends, but they have any one

590
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:04,080
Speaker 1: so uh DeAndre Swift and Peterson here in the running game,

591
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 1: Peterson's a little banged up, and Swift has overtaken that role.

592
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:09,680
Speaker 1: So I got Peterson on the bench, I got Swift

593
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 1: with a B grade. Here's a terrible stat though about Swift. Okay,

594
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 1: this is from Mike Tagleer Fantasy Pros. Thirty nine point

595
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 1: five percent of Swift's rushing yards came off of two carries. Yeah,

596
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,960
Speaker 1: that's a lot off of two carries. But his snap

597
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:29,800
Speaker 1: percentages touches surpassed time draining the right way. Yeah, three

598
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 1: straight games, three touchdowns last two weeks. Yeah, I gotta

599
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:36,200
Speaker 1: be grade on Swift. All right? That sounds about That

600
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,680
Speaker 1: sounds about right. B grade on Swift. It's not too

601
00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,080
Speaker 1: late to join a Guillotine league. This is the hot

602
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:44,680
Speaker 1: new format that is sweeping fantasy football. The premise is, yeah,

603
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 1: I just joined one this week. You did. Yeah, I

604
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 1: started another one for my shock fantasy friends. It's awesome.

605
00:32:51,640 --> 00:32:54,160
Speaker 1: Guillotine Leagues dot Com the premise for those that don't know.

606
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 1: Every week, the low scoring team gets cut and all

607
00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:00,200
Speaker 1: their players go to the waiver wire where it's pan wily.

608
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:01,960
Speaker 1: Here for the rest of us, as we get this

609
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:04,280
Speaker 1: influx of all this great new talent, all you have

610
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:08,440
Speaker 1: to do is not be last. Any given week, the

611
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,479
Speaker 1: last team standing wins the whole thing. Guillotine Leagues dot

612
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,520
Speaker 1: Com league still continuing to form even now at this

613
00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:18,280
Speaker 1: stage of the season. When we come back, Chargers take

614
00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:21,000
Speaker 1: on the Broncos, Well, I'll tell you whether or not

615
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert will continue the hot streak he's on when

616
00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 1: we return. Welcome back Fantasy Football Weekly. I'm Paul charge In.

617
00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:00,840
Speaker 1: Your co host today are Scott Fish and Matt Harrison.

618
00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 1: Got a few more matchups to get to in this segment,

619
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:06,800
Speaker 1: including Chargers taking on the Broncos. Matt. Justin Herbert has

620
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:10,160
Speaker 1: been nothing short of a revelation at quarterback and is

621
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:13,120
Speaker 1: re energized the Chargers. How do you like him against

622
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:16,360
Speaker 1: the Broncos this week? Do you remember former like Saints

623
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 1: quarterback Bobby A. Bear very well? I want to call

624
00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:25,760
Speaker 1: him Justin air Bear. You know, air Bear has been awesome,

625
00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 1: averaging eight yards and two and a half touchdowns per game.

626
00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:33,680
Speaker 1: Problem is, the Broncos defense has been really really good lately,

627
00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:37,120
Speaker 1: allowing only one touchdown pass over their last three games.

628
00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 1: That's one total in three games. No quarterback top two

629
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:43,360
Speaker 1: yards in that span, and by the way they faced

630
00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:48,960
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes, Cam Newton and Sam Donald still, but I

631
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 1: mean they're pretty good, So I'm giving him a B grade.

632
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 1: I am giving Keenan Allen and A grade. It's been

633
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,239
Speaker 1: the slot receiver that's burned the Broncos so far this year.

634
00:34:56,320 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 1: Chris Godwin Jamison Crowder each beat the Broncos for good days,

635
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,240
Speaker 1: while Chase Claypool and Tyree Kal also had decent games

636
00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:06,200
Speaker 1: flexing in and out of the slot. So He's had

637
00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:08,759
Speaker 1: double digit targets in every game that he started and

638
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:11,640
Speaker 1: finished with Air Bear, So I think Keenan Allen's a

639
00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:14,160
Speaker 1: solid A here. Mike Williams is on the bench though,

640
00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:17,800
Speaker 1: Speaking of games that Allen has started and finished, Williams

641
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:21,400
Speaker 1: is averaging one catch per game in games where Allen

642
00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:24,279
Speaker 1: finishes the game. That's a great stat. That is the

643
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:28,319
Speaker 1: best stat of this show so far. Hunter Henry is

644
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:31,880
Speaker 1: top six amongst tight ends in targets, receptions, and yards.

645
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:34,239
Speaker 1: He's a solid B in this game. The Broncos have

646
00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,000
Speaker 1: not allowed a touchdown to a tight end since Week one.

647
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:40,240
Speaker 1: They did help hold Travis Kelsey to only three catches

648
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:42,319
Speaker 1: and thirty one yards last week, but Henry's still been

649
00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:46,920
Speaker 1: one of air Bear's favorite players, and Joshua Kelly. He

650
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:49,680
Speaker 1: had thirty eight snaps last week, while Justin Jackson had

651
00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:53,759
Speaker 1: thirty one. Kelly had seventeen touches. Jackson had ten. That's

652
00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:56,839
Speaker 1: pretty much flipped from the week before. Both are kind

653
00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,080
Speaker 1: of mired in a straight hoth hand time share this

654
00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:02,800
Speaker 1: week against the Denver defense that has allowed only two

655
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 1: total touchdowns to the running back position through six games.

656
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:09,399
Speaker 1: They're only allowing three point nine yards per carry. I'd

657
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:13,239
Speaker 1: bench them both. If you have to play one, it's Kelly,

658
00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:15,120
Speaker 1: but I'd leave them both on the bench if I could.

659
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:17,960
Speaker 1: Let's go over to the Broncos side, where it's the

660
00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:21,360
Speaker 1: long awaited Melvin Gordon revenge game and it seems to

661
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:24,240
Speaker 1: come at a perfect time for him where he's likely

662
00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:28,040
Speaker 1: a bell cow again as Philip Lindsay is still limited

663
00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:30,839
Speaker 1: in practice with a concussion, probably won't go on this one,

664
00:36:31,200 --> 00:36:33,480
Speaker 1: and the Chargers are giving up a hundred and thirty

665
00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:36,200
Speaker 1: seven total yards and two scores to James Robinson just

666
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:40,120
Speaker 1: last week, one totally yards to Alvin Camaro the week before.

667
00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:43,400
Speaker 1: I like Melvin Gordon with a solid be here putting

668
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:45,960
Speaker 1: Drew Lock on the bench. Great stat from Evan Silva.

669
00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:49,839
Speaker 1: In his nine career starts, Slock has twelve interceptions and

670
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:54,279
Speaker 1: fourteen fumbles and a hundred and seventy passing yards per game.

671
00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:59,600
Speaker 1: He's gross and his wide receivers are all on the

672
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:02,600
Speaker 1: bench to Jerry Judy's averaging three catches per game. Tim

673
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:05,879
Speaker 1: Patrick's dealing with the hamstring injury probably won't play. Dave

674
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,800
Speaker 1: Shawn Hamilton and kJ Hamler are warm bodies at best.

675
00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:12,360
Speaker 1: UH fish like Albert Oh in this one, I do too,

676
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,520
Speaker 1: and Noah Fant I'm giving them both a b um

677
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:18,640
Speaker 1: fantasy Superslid had seven targets again last week, and the

678
00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:22,239
Speaker 1: wide receiver situation is an absolute disaster. The Chargers have

679
00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:25,600
Speaker 1: allowed big tight end days to every tight end that

680
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:29,279
Speaker 1: you'd actually consider starting. The only ones that haven't done

681
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:32,279
Speaker 1: well were the Bengals tight ends, the Panthers tight ends,

682
00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:34,480
Speaker 1: and the Jaguars tight ends. They don't even technically have

683
00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 1: tight ends. They're not even on your roster. That's really interesting,

684
00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 1: because I think Noah Fant is going to be a

685
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:43,520
Speaker 1: top five fantasy tight end the rest of this year.

686
00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:45,759
Speaker 1: He could be that whole pat He's the he's the

687
00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:48,480
Speaker 1: best play maker. Make it definitely rock two tight end

688
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:50,759
Speaker 1: sets most of the rest of the year, and I

689
00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:53,520
Speaker 1: think both are in for you know, pretty good rest

690
00:37:53,520 --> 00:38:05,560
Speaker 1: of the season. Justin air bear air air, the justin

691
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:10,600
Speaker 1: a bear. What do you think if we're gonna go

692
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:12,960
Speaker 1: with their bear? Yeah? How'd you get a bear sound

693
00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:18,719
Speaker 1: so quickly? That was very well done? The bear? That's uh,

694
00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:21,080
Speaker 1: we could have the justin air bear. There we go

695
00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:23,920
Speaker 1: there there? That might we can find better bear sounds.

696
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:28,879
Speaker 1: I think that's a brand meditates to sounds generally, very

697
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:33,600
Speaker 1: peaceful bear sounds. Crap on me. Stealers take on the Ravens.

698
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:35,880
Speaker 1: Will start with the running game and James Conner. He

699
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:38,880
Speaker 1: posted fifty five yards in his one game against the

700
00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:42,719
Speaker 1: Ravens last year. In Baltimore's last four games starting running backs,

701
00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:45,560
Speaker 1: they faced of average fifty one yards and just three

702
00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:48,280
Speaker 1: point one yards per carry. They've only allowed to total

703
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:50,799
Speaker 1: running back scores all year. So James Conner is just

704
00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:54,040
Speaker 1: a C grade in this matchup. You probably have to

705
00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:56,480
Speaker 1: started because it's a tough bye week and he's been

706
00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:58,480
Speaker 1: reliable to this point. But I don't love him in

707
00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:00,360
Speaker 1: this matchup and you shouldn't either. Let's go to the

708
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 1: passing game, where Ben Roethlisberger also a rare C grade

709
00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 1: for him and probably the toughest game on this year's

710
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:10,200
Speaker 1: schedule for Roethlisberger in the passing game as he travels

711
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:13,960
Speaker 1: to Baltimore to face arguably the NFL's best secondary. Aside

712
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:17,719
Speaker 1: from the Ravens let down against Patrick Mahomes, the average

713
00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:22,360
Speaker 1: game is two hundred thirty four yards and zero point

714
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:28,120
Speaker 1: eight passing. That's it, so probably a tough game cup

715
00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:31,279
Speaker 1: and coming from Ben Roethlisberger over the over the bye week.

716
00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:35,319
Speaker 1: It doesn't help that Baltimore added Russia Yanique Ningakway to

717
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:40,040
Speaker 1: bolster there otherwise relatively average pass rush and Roethlisberger's gonna

718
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:41,799
Speaker 1: have to face him too, so just the C grade

719
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:44,799
Speaker 1: their C grade on Juju Smith Schuster. He'll go up

720
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:49,120
Speaker 1: against slot cornerback Marlin Humphrey, who's graded fifth overall by

721
00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:52,600
Speaker 1: Pro Football Focus at the at the cornerback position and

722
00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:56,120
Speaker 1: owns just a seventy five passer rating in his coverage.

723
00:39:56,719 --> 00:40:00,359
Speaker 1: That said, he has allowed plenty of receptions and to sue,

724
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:04,280
Speaker 1: jud should probably see more targets with Deonte Johnson hobbled

725
00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:08,239
Speaker 1: by injury, which brings us to Deonte Johnson, who, by

726
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:11,120
Speaker 1: the way, I love Deonte Johnson. Can you just finish

727
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:14,040
Speaker 1: a freaking game? You're killing me. I love to see

728
00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:16,600
Speaker 1: the two touchdowns last week, but I don't know how

729
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:19,239
Speaker 1: much more of this my heart can take because I

730
00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:22,759
Speaker 1: I've rostered him everywhere. I love this. The Ravens have

731
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:25,200
Speaker 1: allowed just three wide receiver touchdowns all year, and just

732
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:28,359
Speaker 1: one opposing wide receiver has topped one hundred yards all

733
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:32,000
Speaker 1: season long. Baltimore's cornerback duel of Jimmy Smith and Marcus

734
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:35,040
Speaker 1: Peters would present problems for even a fully healthy Johnson,

735
00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:37,279
Speaker 1: and obviously that won't be the case this week. So

736
00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:39,759
Speaker 1: just to see grade on Johnson and to see grade

737
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:42,520
Speaker 1: on Chase Claypool, who's done little in games in which

738
00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:44,600
Speaker 1: Deonta Johnson has been on the field, and you're almost

739
00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:46,600
Speaker 1: banking on him leaving the game if you're gonna start

740
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 1: Chase Claypool. Johnson plans to play, and uh, a matchup

741
00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:52,200
Speaker 1: with Baltimore is not easy. As I mentioned, the one

742
00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:55,400
Speaker 1: angle you've got here, He's got a big size defferential

743
00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:58,360
Speaker 1: on Marcus Peters, who he will run against often, and

744
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:00,360
Speaker 1: I think that's your glimmer of hope for Cape. For

745
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:04,680
Speaker 1: Chase Claypool is a potential touchdown, box out touchdown. I

746
00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:07,640
Speaker 1: call him Clay Chase Pool too sometimes. Did I just

747
00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:12,360
Speaker 1: do that? Okay? I did tweet that once by accident.

748
00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:16,400
Speaker 1: All right, let's go to the Baltimore side where Lamar Jackson.

749
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:19,000
Speaker 1: You know, that passing attack for Baltimore just has looked

750
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:23,080
Speaker 1: out of sync all year, and a game against the

751
00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:27,800
Speaker 1: Steelers doesn't feel like a get right opportunity since the opener.

752
00:41:28,320 --> 00:41:32,280
Speaker 1: Get this, Lamar Jackson's average passing game since the opener

753
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:37,839
Speaker 1: one hundred seventy three yards and one point four touchdowns.

754
00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:41,920
Speaker 1: That's all like Drew lock numbers. Those are very locky

755
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:46,160
Speaker 1: in that's in the conversation also with Cam Newton. And

756
00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:47,880
Speaker 1: that's not good. And we may talk more about that

757
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,000
Speaker 1: a little later. I hope we we had. I think

758
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:52,560
Speaker 1: the team would really hope for sophomores Markeys Brown and

759
00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:54,640
Speaker 1: Miles boy Can to make a big step up this year.

760
00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:58,279
Speaker 1: That really hasn't happened. Unfortunately. No posing quarterback has top

761
00:41:58,320 --> 00:42:01,320
Speaker 1: two touchdowns against the Steelers. No quarterback has run for

762
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:04,160
Speaker 1: more than twenty two yards against the Steelers. They're pressure,

763
00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:08,400
Speaker 1: it's insane. It's of the time they get to the quarterback.

764
00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:11,440
Speaker 1: I'm almost banking on the pressure flushing out Jackson and

765
00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:14,200
Speaker 1: then go and runs. I think he's sitting on a

766
00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:16,600
Speaker 1: one touchdown passing game and we're hoping he chips in

767
00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:19,120
Speaker 1: fifty yards and a coin flips chance at a rushing touchdown,

768
00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:22,240
Speaker 1: and that equates to a B grade for Lamar Jackson.

769
00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:25,320
Speaker 1: The receivers, it's not great Mark Andrews. Just to see

770
00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:28,000
Speaker 1: it's been a jackal and hide season for Mark Andrews

771
00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:32,400
Speaker 1: with three good games and three terrible ones. This game, unfortunately,

772
00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:35,000
Speaker 1: he's got dud written all over at Pittsburgh's allowed just

773
00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:38,120
Speaker 1: one touchdown to tight ends all year, and that was

774
00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:40,440
Speaker 1: way back in Week two. They've also allowed a tight

775
00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:44,800
Speaker 1: end to top two catches or thirty yards once that's

776
00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:48,080
Speaker 1: it's just it's all bad then Marquis Brown, like Andrews,

777
00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:50,200
Speaker 1: it's been a boomer bus season for Brown, and while

778
00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:52,320
Speaker 1: the matchup is tough, I'll mention the Steelers have allowed

779
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:55,200
Speaker 1: multiple wide receiver touchdowns in three of their last four

780
00:42:55,239 --> 00:43:00,239
Speaker 1: games and other opponents top receivers have posted big games,

781
00:43:00,280 --> 00:43:03,360
Speaker 1: including Travis Fulghum and A. J. Brown, who both scored

782
00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:06,040
Speaker 1: in top two hundred fifty yards recently, Brown is the

783
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:09,640
Speaker 1: this Brown Marquise is the top receiving target here. So

784
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:11,560
Speaker 1: he does get a C grade and we'll hope he

785
00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:14,400
Speaker 1: goes he does better going forward. J K. Dobbins was

786
00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:16,919
Speaker 1: Scott Fishes, take a chance of me player. I think

787
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:18,879
Speaker 1: you could also in a pitch, especially in a bye week,

788
00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:22,120
Speaker 1: give Gus Edwards a try. He's been the Ravens best

789
00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:25,040
Speaker 1: runner all year in my to my eyes. In Baltimore's

790
00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:27,680
Speaker 1: last game after Ingram went out, Ingram got a huge

791
00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:30,840
Speaker 1: spike in usage with season highs and touches and plays,

792
00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:33,000
Speaker 1: and he scored on a carry from inside the ten

793
00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:36,279
Speaker 1: yard line and the Ravens last game. So we're gonna

794
00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:38,000
Speaker 1: hope that that happens again here and we've got a

795
00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:43,200
Speaker 1: C grade on Gus Edwards. If you if you like

796

805
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 1: Shock Fantasy podcast. We nailed Curtis Samuel last night, absolutely nailed.

806
00:44:13,239 --> 00:44:17,200
Speaker 1: And you don't say yeah, Curtis Samuel, nicely done. When

807
00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:19,760
Speaker 1: we come back, three tough questions for a panel of experts,

808
00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:46,759
Speaker 1: play along see if you can go three and oh.

809
00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:51,359
Speaker 1: Welcome back our number two of Fantasy Football Weekly. I

810
00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:54,720
Speaker 1: am Paul charging co host today Scott Fish and Matt Harrison.

811
00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:58,040
Speaker 1: This is a game we call three tough questions. I

812
00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:01,399
Speaker 1: will pepper my co host, with three tough questions. They'll

813
00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:03,200
Speaker 1: try to get them right and you can play along.

814
00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:06,080
Speaker 1: Try to go three and ow. Tough question number one.

815
00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:11,560
Speaker 1: After back to back to back underwhelming performances, what's the

816
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:16,280
Speaker 1: appropriate level of concern for those with Josh Allen? None

817
00:45:17,280 --> 00:45:22,280
Speaker 1: some or a bowel loosening level of existential dread? Scott,

818
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:26,160
Speaker 1: I think it's some. He's still had over a hundred

819
00:45:26,239 --> 00:45:27,880
Speaker 1: yards on the ground in the last two weeks with

820
00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:31,240
Speaker 1: seventeen carries. But the big issue isn't as much Alan

821
00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:34,200
Speaker 1: as is they can't run the ball. This allows defenses

822
00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:37,359
Speaker 1: to key on Allen. If you're worried about Allen at all,

823
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:41,120
Speaker 1: it's because you don't fully believe in Zack Moss to

824
00:45:41,200 --> 00:45:46,600
Speaker 1: get the run now that he's back from injury. They

825
00:45:46,640 --> 00:45:49,640
Speaker 1: have four negative matchups, one positive, four neutral. Not the

826
00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:52,319
Speaker 1: greatest schedule. I actually really like what Brian Dabble has

827
00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:54,640
Speaker 1: been doing. I think he can write the ship. But

828
00:45:54,719 --> 00:45:56,840
Speaker 1: I don't think we're gonna see that top three we

829
00:45:56,920 --> 00:45:59,399
Speaker 1: saw in the first couple of weeks. So really, let's

830
00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:02,440
Speaker 1: be honest. This is just charged disguising the Zach Moss question.

831
00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:09,960
Speaker 1: You b the code. Matt Fish stole a lot of

832
00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:12,120
Speaker 1: what I was gonna say. I think his schedule is

833
00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:14,960
Speaker 1: a little bit harder than he led on. According to

834
00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:18,240
Speaker 1: the Shock Fantasy Metrics, they have the fifth hardest schedule

835
00:46:19,120 --> 00:46:22,520
Speaker 1: for the remainder of the season, including Week thirteen with

836
00:46:22,600 --> 00:46:26,400
Speaker 1: the Niners, then Steelers, then Broncos, then Patriots in the

837
00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:28,920
Speaker 1: playoff run. All of those are proving to be pretty

838
00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:32,080
Speaker 1: tough matchups for quarterbacks. Still, he has thrown from multiple

839
00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:34,480
Speaker 1: scores and six of seven this year, and his running

840
00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:36,879
Speaker 1: ability hasn't vanished. He might be the best running back

841
00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:41,080
Speaker 1: on the roster. You shut up, so I'll just say

842
00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:44,000
Speaker 1: some because of the upcoming difficult schedule. The correct answer

843
00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:48,799
Speaker 1: is none. Even in his three bad games, he's thrown

844
00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:50,920
Speaker 1: multiple touchdowns in two out of three, and just the

845
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:52,759
Speaker 1: nature who he is and think he's got, he's gonna

846
00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:55,480
Speaker 1: have some big passing games, deep balls, connecting some of

847
00:46:55,600 --> 00:47:00,440
Speaker 1: they just don't. But his running just neutralizes the dead inside.

848
00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:02,759
Speaker 1: He's gotta have the bad passing game and the bad

849
00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:05,480
Speaker 1: running game together before he gives you the rare dud

850
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:08,960
Speaker 1: dual dud, and it almost never happens. Even last week

851
00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:12,120
Speaker 1: he had no touchdowns, but he chipped in sixty one

852
00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:14,919
Speaker 1: rushing yards. The sixty one rushing yards, you know, six

853
00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:17,480
Speaker 1: point one points, that's a touchdown and a half passing.

854
00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:22,040
Speaker 1: So the downside just isn't there. And the player You're

855
00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:24,640
Speaker 1: right about the playoffs schedule. Playoffs schedule is not good.

856
00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:26,719
Speaker 1: But that's still only three games out of the rest

857
00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:28,239
Speaker 1: of the season and we still got a long way

858
00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:31,480
Speaker 1: to go. Not worried about Josh Allen, I mean, generally

859
00:47:31,560 --> 00:47:34,280
Speaker 1: you want to do well in the playoffs. The question

860
00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:38,240
Speaker 1: number two, what's the appropriate level of concern for those

861
00:47:38,320 --> 00:47:43,160
Speaker 1: with slumping running back Ezekiel Elliott none some or a

862
00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:48,160
Speaker 1: bowl loosening level of existential dread. Matt, what are you

863
00:47:48,239 --> 00:47:50,799
Speaker 1: sure like to talk about bows? There's a lot of

864
00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:55,720
Speaker 1: bowl talking. How's your bowl feeling, hear? I think it's

865
00:47:55,760 --> 00:47:57,759
Speaker 1: feeling pretty loose right now. Good thing. I have a

866
00:47:57,800 --> 00:48:01,840
Speaker 1: bi day at my house. The Cowboys had no double

867
00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:08,200
Speaker 1: and triple cleaning materials, but day is so fantastic, so clean,

868
00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:13,719
Speaker 1: applying the ceilant. You don't know about the three seashells.

869
00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:17,799
Speaker 1: The Cowboys have no offensive line. They're down to their

870
00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:21,640
Speaker 1: third string quarterback who might be delivering pizza's next week.

871
00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:26,840
Speaker 1: Plus their schedule is by far the most difficult running

872
00:48:26,840 --> 00:48:30,200
Speaker 1: back schedule. The rest of the way matchups with six

873
00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:33,360
Speaker 1: top ten run defenses on the horizon and they have

874
00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:36,880
Speaker 1: a buy in there make Zeke very undesirable. His only

875
00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:39,680
Speaker 1: good matchups the rest of the way are Minnesota and

876
00:48:39,719 --> 00:48:44,120
Speaker 1: Week eleven, and since in Week fourteen, that's it. Bowl

877
00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:50,480
Speaker 1: loosening level of existential dread. Alright, Scottowe Elliott, what's the

878
00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:53,440
Speaker 1: appropriate level of concern? Given the running back landscape and

879
00:48:53,480 --> 00:48:55,960
Speaker 1: all the injuries and the fact that Ezekiel Elliott has

880
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:58,799
Speaker 1: still never missed a game except for that six game suspension.

881
00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:01,120
Speaker 1: I'm just going with some because he's going to be

882
00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:05,919
Speaker 1: the twelve to thirty Carrie touch guy. Uh. Last game.

883
00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:08,560
Speaker 1: This last game was the first game this season he's

884
00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:13,479
Speaker 1: had under twenty touches um and the Cowboys cancer steam drives.

885
00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:16,520
Speaker 1: So obviously you have to have some concern. But given

886
00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:21,160
Speaker 1: this landscape, man, I'm not, I'm not. It's not existential

887
00:49:21,239 --> 00:49:24,440
Speaker 1: dread for me. This question is not about the landscape.

888
00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:27,640
Speaker 1: This question is about Ezekiel Elliott and your I'm gonna

889
00:49:27,719 --> 00:49:31,920
Speaker 1: keeping level contential dress still start. Let's go. Let's take

890
00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:34,440
Speaker 1: and I get one right, and Fish got one wrong.

891
00:49:34,560 --> 00:49:37,319
Speaker 1: That's right, like hallelujah. Let's take the emotion out of

892
00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:39,520
Speaker 1: this and go straight to the numbers. Are you ready

893
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:43,600
Speaker 1: that he'll still be game pretty much since Dad got

894
00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:47,600
Speaker 1: knocked out. He's running back forty among running backs. Obviously,

895
00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:52,080
Speaker 1: he has zero one hundred yard rushing games this year.

896
00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:56,800
Speaker 1: Talking about Ezekiel Elliott, five fumbles worst among all running backs,

897
00:49:57,440 --> 00:50:01,759
Speaker 1: four drops tied for most among all running backs. Two

898
00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:06,520
Speaker 1: of those drops turned into interceptions first among running backs.

899
00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:12,200
Speaker 1: Seven quarterback hits allowed in past protection worst among running backs.

900
00:50:12,600 --> 00:50:16,440
Speaker 1: This is Ezekiel Williot, declining yards per carry in three

901
00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:22,240
Speaker 1: straight games. Receiving numbers way way down last three games

902
00:50:22,640 --> 00:50:28,520
Speaker 1: fourteen yards, thirty one yards, six yards in receiving. Convinced me.

903
00:50:28,680 --> 00:50:34,920
Speaker 1: Everybody charged the bridge drop Elliott sabotage drop. Zeke is

904
00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:39,080
Speaker 1: averaging less than two yards after contacts. Here's a four

905
00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:42,520
Speaker 1: yard after contact guy for his for his career. And

906
00:50:42,719 --> 00:50:46,280
Speaker 1: here's the part that should if those numbers didn't scare

907
00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:51,360
Speaker 1: you enough. On this the holiday Halloween weekend, his snap

908
00:50:51,400 --> 00:50:54,920
Speaker 1: count has dropped massively over the last two games. He

909
00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:59,360
Speaker 1: is usually an eighty five to snap count guy. The

910
00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:02,800
Speaker 1: last two weeks with all of this happening, he's fallen

911
00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:06,360
Speaker 1: into the mid sixty on snap counts, and Tony Pollard

912
00:51:06,440 --> 00:51:10,360
Speaker 1: has seen career highs. This team is starting to put

913
00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:16,640
Speaker 1: the better running back in the game, or they're taking

914
00:51:16,680 --> 00:51:20,160
Speaker 1: mileage off their umpteen million dollar back in a season

915
00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:23,120
Speaker 1: that's pretty much lost. Either way, the appropriate level of

916
00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:28,400
Speaker 1: concern bowl loosening levels of existential dread. Let's go to

917
00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:31,520
Speaker 1: our third final question number three. What is the appropriate

918
00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:35,120
Speaker 1: level of concern for those with John U. Smith? My

919
00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:41,800
Speaker 1: guy none, some or loosening level of existential dread man

920
00:51:42,239 --> 00:51:49,160
Speaker 1: Zack Moss question and church. Have you seen Johnny Smith

921
00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:51,920
Speaker 1: play when healthy? Oh? God? Have I you think I

922
00:51:51,920 --> 00:51:55,359
Speaker 1: haven't broken down all that tape? Are you concerned with

923
00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:59,160
Speaker 1: Patrick mahomes arm talent when healthy? Were you concerned about

924
00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:02,520
Speaker 1: Michael phelps immun ability to his pribe? Were you concerned

925
00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:05,520
Speaker 1: about Michael Jordan being being able to score twenty points

926
00:52:05,560 --> 00:52:10,080
Speaker 1: when the other team pissed him off? No, no, No, John,

927
00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:12,640
Speaker 1: who has been hurt? Don't worry about That's all I

928
00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:14,839
Speaker 1: have to say. Don't worry about John, Oh John who

929
00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:17,480
Speaker 1: he has been hurt. This offense is good and he's

930
00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:21,279
Speaker 1: gonna get his opportunities when he's fully healthy. Matt, my

931
00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:23,560
Speaker 1: kids have a poster of every one of those guys

932
00:52:23,600 --> 00:52:26,240
Speaker 1: on the wall, including John WHU Smith as well they should.

933
00:52:26,600 --> 00:52:29,839
Speaker 1: There's no John Hu Smith worry here. Tannehill has been

934
00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:32,920
Speaker 1: much better than expected. John got a bing bit dinged up,

935
00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:36,600
Speaker 1: and after a run of tough defenses from weeks nine

936
00:52:36,640 --> 00:52:39,680
Speaker 1: through twelve, he's got the best playoff schedule for tight

937
00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:44,120
Speaker 1: ends that I've ever seen. Three bottom six tight end

938
00:52:44,160 --> 00:52:48,239
Speaker 1: defenses in the playoffs, including Jacksonville Detroit and Green Bay.

939
00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:51,160
Speaker 1: If you play in week seventeen, he gets Houston, which

940
00:52:51,239 --> 00:52:55,640
Speaker 1: is another one. There's no worry about John Oh Smith here.

941
00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:57,719
Speaker 1: Did you guys know, and I'm sure you didn't. I

942
00:52:57,760 --> 00:53:02,600
Speaker 1: only learned it this week that in South Asia many

943
00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:09,479
Speaker 1: of the languages JOHNU means my love. So from here

944
00:53:09,600 --> 00:53:14,520
Speaker 1: forward we are referring to him as JOHNU. JOHNU Smith,

945
00:53:15,920 --> 00:53:19,239
Speaker 1: my love. John U. Smith highest scoring tight end on

946
00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:22,200
Speaker 1: a per game basis prior to his ankle injury. He's

947
00:53:22,280 --> 00:53:25,200
Speaker 1: three games removed from that injury. He's probably in a

948
00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:27,000
Speaker 1: good spot right now when he gets the Bengals this

949
00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:30,600
Speaker 1: week and they're arguably the worst team against tight ends

950
00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:33,520
Speaker 1: in the entire league. We are not at all worried

951
00:53:33,640 --> 00:53:36,759
Speaker 1: about John new Smith. Let's get back to the matchups

952
00:53:37,160 --> 00:53:40,759
Speaker 1: and the Titans taking on the Bengals. What a fantastic

953
00:53:40,800 --> 00:53:45,920
Speaker 1: transition opportunity. This is right, absolutely perfect, John new Smith

954
00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:49,600
Speaker 1: obvious a grade, obviously in a grade. I just compared

955
00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:51,680
Speaker 1: him to some of the grades of all time. Now,

956
00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:57,239
Speaker 1: if every sport pale, if soccer, did you worry about

957
00:53:55,440 --> 00:54:02,279
Speaker 1: the Bengals have allowed six tight end touchdowns in just

958
00:54:02,360 --> 00:54:05,560
Speaker 1: the last three weeks. That's what Jona Smith gets to

959
00:54:05,560 --> 00:54:08,160
Speaker 1: go up against a team that has allowed the second

960
00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:11,680
Speaker 1: most yards and the fourth most receptions to tight ends.

961
00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:16,160
Speaker 1: This is a smash as a grade. Jonna Smith firing

962
00:54:16,239 --> 00:54:19,719
Speaker 1: up Anthony Ferk Sir for this one too. I don't

963
00:54:19,840 --> 00:54:21,560
Speaker 1: I think it's I think it's I thought you were

964
00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:23,480
Speaker 1: gonna ask if I was gonna hard vark this thing.

965
00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:27,880
Speaker 1: Can you had looked? I don't have a great art

966
00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:30,080
Speaker 1: park this week. If John who is your If John

967
00:54:30,320 --> 00:54:34,480
Speaker 1: John John is your art park, please please go right ahead?

968
00:54:34,640 --> 00:54:36,759
Speaker 1: Would you like to? I don't know that John U

969
00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:39,920
Speaker 1: John Wu has an ardvark here, but I'm giving him

970
00:54:39,960 --> 00:54:43,400
Speaker 1: an A grade. Derrick Henry I have on the bench. No,

971
00:54:43,560 --> 00:54:47,040
Speaker 1: I'm just kidding that. It's clear clear a grade. The

972
00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:49,160
Speaker 1: Begels could be the eighty five Bears right now, and

973
00:54:49,200 --> 00:54:53,640
Speaker 1: I'm probably still starting Derrick Henry. Uh enhanced. They're not

974
00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:56,200
Speaker 1: that good. They've allowed the fourth most rushing yard story

975
00:54:56,280 --> 00:55:00,040
Speaker 1: backs uh Tannehill also in a grade. I like the

976
00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:03,840
Speaker 1: Titans a lot this week. Sixteen touchdowns in six games,

977
00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:06,040
Speaker 1: and the one game he didn't throw multiple touchdowns, he

978
00:55:06,080 --> 00:55:09,440
Speaker 1: threw one yards. On the other side, the Bengals have

979
00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:12,800
Speaker 1: allowed multiple touchdowns every game since Week one, where to

980
00:55:12,960 --> 00:55:16,520
Speaker 1: Rod Taylor wasn't able to so okay, Herbert would have

981
00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:19,520
Speaker 1: done it. Sorry, air bear, air bear, that's right, the

982
00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:26,879
Speaker 1: air bear. Hold on. That's good. Oh that's that's a

983
00:55:26,880 --> 00:55:34,000
Speaker 1: lion that's not changeable. No, not I know a lion

984
00:55:34,239 --> 00:55:37,279
Speaker 1: roar year one that was like the MGM lion right there.

985
00:55:40,280 --> 00:55:45,480
Speaker 1: That's more like alright, we'll go with that. That's all right,

986
00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:47,520
Speaker 1: We'll call it a bear. A J. Brown with the

987
00:55:47,600 --> 00:55:50,480
Speaker 1: A grade nearly three yards and four touchdowns in the

988
00:55:50,520 --> 00:55:52,800
Speaker 1: last three weeks, the main man for Tan Hill, and

989
00:55:52,840 --> 00:55:55,839
Speaker 1: I'm giving Corey Davis a courtesy C grade. I'm being

990
00:55:55,880 --> 00:55:58,839
Speaker 1: really nice to him because, uh, the first game back,

991
00:55:58,880 --> 00:56:01,160
Speaker 1: he saw Tan targets in Week one with John Who

992
00:56:01,200 --> 00:56:03,839
Speaker 1: and Brown and both healthy. He got his two that

993
00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:06,640
Speaker 1: week like they were able to coexist. So I think

994
00:56:06,640 --> 00:56:09,279
Speaker 1: there's potential here for him to co exist here. He

995
00:56:09,360 --> 00:56:11,040
Speaker 1: might be the modd Odd man out, but I'm giving

996
00:56:11,080 --> 00:56:13,880
Speaker 1: a C grade. Um the second wide receiver against the

997
00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:17,800
Speaker 1: Bengals this year has consistently been in that seventy yard

998
00:56:17,920 --> 00:56:22,719
Speaker 1: range and many of them score touchdowns. Sodas with it.

999
00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:25,919
Speaker 1: I have this game as just an ultimate shootout. So

1000
00:56:26,120 --> 00:56:27,960
Speaker 1: I have a lot of really good grades for the

1001
00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:31,520
Speaker 1: Bengals as well. Really yes, well, now let's mention upfront,

1002
00:56:31,560 --> 00:56:34,520
Speaker 1: Bengals are going to be without their left their offensive

1003
00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:37,600
Speaker 1: line tackle, and their starting center. They actually, I'm worried

1004
00:56:37,600 --> 00:56:40,280
Speaker 1: about this. They're actually pulling up two practice squad guys

1005
00:56:40,320 --> 00:56:43,160
Speaker 1: to be in reserve for the for the offensive line

1006
00:56:43,200 --> 00:56:45,760
Speaker 1: this week. I I I don't know that that offensive

1007
00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:48,359
Speaker 1: line is going to spring the Bengals for a lot here.

1008
00:56:48,880 --> 00:56:52,440
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow has legs, he can move around, and but

1009
00:56:52,520 --> 00:56:54,480
Speaker 1: also he's been stacked on hun and twenty seven times

1010
00:56:54,520 --> 00:56:58,680
Speaker 1: this year. The line hasn't been that good already. So uh,

1011
00:56:59,040 --> 00:57:04,120
Speaker 1: it's more about the this matchup. UM. Burrow leads the

1012
00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:07,839
Speaker 1: league in attempts and completions, has five games over three

1013
00:57:07,920 --> 00:57:11,560
Speaker 1: hundred yards, trailing Andrew Luck who had six, So he's

1014
00:57:11,680 --> 00:57:16,080
Speaker 1: probably gonna break that, gonna smash the working passing record. Um.

1015
00:57:16,120 --> 00:57:17,960
Speaker 1: They will play from behind probably in this one. The

1016
00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:21,000
Speaker 1: Titans have allowed two fifty plus yards and multiple touchdowns

1017
00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:23,800
Speaker 1: to five straight passers. I got that. For Burrow here

1018
00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:25,760
Speaker 1: to playing from behind, he's gonna he's gonna have to

1019
00:57:25,800 --> 00:57:28,400
Speaker 1: throw a lot That's why I actually have all three

1020
00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:31,800
Speaker 1: of their receivers in my top twenty this week. I

1021
00:57:31,880 --> 00:57:33,440
Speaker 1: just don't know if he's going to have to have

1022
00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:38,920
Speaker 1: enough time to pass effectively. I'm nervous. I'm not. I'm not. Uh,

1023
00:57:39,040 --> 00:57:41,760
Speaker 1: Tyler Boyd, you're mentioning one of their one of their

1024
00:57:41,920 --> 00:57:47,200
Speaker 1: cornerback just went out. Uh, Kurtzner? Maybe not sure? Yeah, okay.

1025
00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:50,280
Speaker 1: The Titans have allowed the third most receptions to wide receivers,

1026
00:57:50,320 --> 00:57:53,200
Speaker 1: the fourth most fantasy points. They've given up five wide

1027
00:57:53,200 --> 00:57:57,480
Speaker 1: receiver touchdowns and just the last two games. Uh and A. J.

1028
00:57:57,640 --> 00:58:00,720
Speaker 1: Green's got twenty four targets in the last two. He's

1029
00:58:00,800 --> 00:58:03,280
Speaker 1: yet to score, but the targets are there, the efficiency

1030
00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:06,000
Speaker 1: starting to come around. Actually have a grades on both

1031
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:07,600
Speaker 1: of them. And I have a B grade on Higgins.

1032
00:58:07,840 --> 00:58:10,120
Speaker 1: As I said, I really like him this week's He's

1033
00:58:10,120 --> 00:58:13,440
Speaker 1: got four plus catches in five straight, sixty plus in

1034
00:58:13,480 --> 00:58:15,880
Speaker 1: four straight. He can get a big play. I have.

1035
00:58:16,040 --> 00:58:18,960
Speaker 1: I have great grades on all of them. Geo Bernard

1036
00:58:19,120 --> 00:58:21,800
Speaker 1: last one run game, this is this is what tough.

1037
00:58:22,360 --> 00:58:23,760
Speaker 1: This is where I would have liked a lot more

1038
00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:26,080
Speaker 1: of the offensive line is better. I'm giving him a

1039
00:58:26,080 --> 00:58:29,240
Speaker 1: C grade just because his fifteen plus touches are probably

1040
00:58:29,240 --> 00:58:31,880
Speaker 1: going to happen. And he's been a double digit fantasy

1041
00:58:31,920 --> 00:58:34,920
Speaker 1: guy every time he's been the lead back with with

1042
00:58:35,000 --> 00:58:36,760
Speaker 1: mixing out or even back in the back in the

1043
00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:39,240
Speaker 1: old day. So um, I'm giving him a courtesy C

1044
00:58:39,400 --> 00:58:41,040
Speaker 1: grade on volume. Yeah, I had to. I had a

1045
00:58:41,040 --> 00:58:43,840
Speaker 1: B grade on him before the all these injuries the

1046
00:58:43,880 --> 00:58:45,680
Speaker 1: offensive line. I had to lower him. Did the Sea

1047
00:58:45,800 --> 00:58:48,640
Speaker 1: territory as well for Geo Bernard. When we come back,

1048
00:58:48,680 --> 00:58:52,440
Speaker 1: Forts take on the Seahawks. Fascinating matchup in that the

1049
00:58:52,560 --> 00:58:55,200
Speaker 1: Niners want to run, but the Seahawks are really good

1050
00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:58,080
Speaker 1: against the run. The Seahawks want to pass, but the

1051
00:58:58,160 --> 00:59:01,760
Speaker 1: Niners are really good against the pass. Are are they? Oh?

1052
00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:06,080
Speaker 1: We'll find out when we come back to Fantasy Football Weekly.

1053
00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:34,360
Speaker 1: Welcome back. Then it's a football Weekly. I am Paul

Speaker 1: Charchi in my co host or Scott Fish and Matt Harrison.

1055
00:59:40,400 --> 00:59:43,320
Speaker 1: The Niners take on the Seahawks. Matt game in that,

1056
00:59:43,440 --> 00:59:48,000
Speaker 1: in many ways it's two flawed teams, but it feels

1057
00:59:48,080 --> 00:59:50,920
Speaker 1: like what they one team does well, the other team stops.

1058
00:59:50,960 --> 00:59:52,880
Speaker 1: And I don't know that these teams are able to

1059
00:59:52,920 --> 00:59:54,760
Speaker 1: get in the normal kind of rhythm that they that

1060
00:59:54,840 --> 00:59:57,240
Speaker 1: they have been in. Now you love the Niners in

1061
00:59:57,280 --> 00:59:59,800
Speaker 1: our take a chance segment, you gave us three different

1062
00:59:59,800 --> 01:00:02,160
Speaker 1: four niners as you take a chance of me players,

1063
01:00:02,240 --> 01:00:05,840
Speaker 1: And I wanted to mention um some people have said, hey,

1065
01:00:07,720 --> 01:00:11,440
Speaker 1: me guys? So Jimmy Garoppolo, Jamichael Hasty, and Brandon Auk

1066
01:00:11,560 --> 01:00:13,520
Speaker 1: all get B grades as might take a chance on

1067
01:00:13,600 --> 01:00:16,720
Speaker 1: me players this week. George Kittle gets an A. Kittle

1068
01:00:16,760 --> 01:00:20,080
Speaker 1: has never scored against the Seahawks, but seven for eighty

1069
01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:22,440
Speaker 1: six and six for seventy in his last two trips

1070
01:00:22,480 --> 01:00:25,120
Speaker 1: to the Emerald City, and it's worth noting that Seattle

1071
01:00:25,200 --> 01:00:27,680
Speaker 1: hasn't allowed a touchdown to the tight end this year,

1072
01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:29,800
Speaker 1: but with all the injuries to the running backs and

1073
01:00:29,800 --> 01:00:31,880
Speaker 1: wide receivers, it's hard to believe that Kiddle won't be

1074
01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:33,840
Speaker 1: a focal point in this one, so he's still getting

1075
01:00:33,840 --> 01:00:36,600
Speaker 1: an A. Kendrick Born and Trent Taylor on the bench.

1076
01:00:36,720 --> 01:00:41,080
Speaker 1: Born has topped four receptions once in his career and

1077
01:00:41,200 --> 01:00:44,360
Speaker 1: top seventy five yards exactly zero times in three years.

1078
01:00:45,120 --> 01:00:47,640
Speaker 1: Taylor's the slot guy and has had eight targets from

1079
01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:50,240
Speaker 1: Jimmy g on the air, sweet matchup. Just can't trust

1080
01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:54,240
Speaker 1: the players against this awesome Seattle match up here, Tevin

1081
01:00:54,280 --> 01:00:56,320
Speaker 1: Coleman and Jerick McKinnon. I'm putting them both on the

1082
01:00:56,320 --> 01:00:59,280
Speaker 1: bench after I touted Hasty. I clearly imagine one of

1083
01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:02,560
Speaker 1: these two more aculously becoming healthy and getting twenty two touches.

1084
01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:04,600
Speaker 1: I think McKinnon's canna have a big workload here because

1085
01:01:04,640 --> 01:01:10,640
Speaker 1: he is rested from his weak legs, his tired legs um.

1086
01:01:10,720 --> 01:01:13,280
Speaker 1: By the way, Coleman his last game out was Week two.

1087
01:01:13,560 --> 01:01:16,160
Speaker 1: It was against the Jets. He had fourteen carries for

1088
01:01:16,320 --> 01:01:22,680
Speaker 1: twelve so bad. So he's definitely on the bench. I

1089
01:01:22,720 --> 01:01:25,480
Speaker 1: guess I could give Jack McKinnon probably a see if

1090
01:01:25,520 --> 01:01:27,440
Speaker 1: it looks like he's healthy and going to be the starter.

1091
01:01:27,520 --> 01:01:29,280
Speaker 1: There's no reason to think he's not healthy. It's not

1092
01:01:29,360 --> 01:01:31,320
Speaker 1: on the injury report. One is healthy. One of the

1093
01:01:31,320 --> 01:01:34,080
Speaker 1: weird things with that Shanahan consistently does even when he's

1094
01:01:34,120 --> 01:01:36,880
Speaker 1: got a Jamichael Hasty, Like we saw it with Jeff

1095
01:01:36,880 --> 01:01:39,720
Speaker 1: Wilson just a couple of weeks ago when he had Hasty,

1096
01:01:40,360 --> 01:01:42,680
Speaker 1: he takes the veteran and shoves him back in because

1097
01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:45,400
Speaker 1: he trusts the vest Turan. I think McKinnon is the

1098
01:01:45,440 --> 01:01:49,040
Speaker 1: sneaky play here. You might be right, um, Russell Wilson chart.

1099
01:01:49,080 --> 01:01:52,440
Speaker 1: You alluded to the Niners having a really good secondary

1100
01:01:52,520 --> 01:01:55,520
Speaker 1: this year in past defense. Um, but Niners have played

1101
01:01:56,320 --> 01:02:00,200
Speaker 1: exactly two good quarterbacks this year. Tell me more, Tyler

1102
01:02:00,280 --> 01:02:02,840
Speaker 1: Murray and Ryan Fitzpatrick. Where the two that they played

1103
01:02:02,880 --> 01:02:05,000
Speaker 1: that were good? And noticed Stu Beards in there. I

1104
01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:07,600
Speaker 1: appreciate that two of the best rushing quarterbacks in the NFL.

1105
01:02:07,680 --> 01:02:10,800
Speaker 1: That's right. Other than that, I don't think any of

1106
01:02:10,800 --> 01:02:13,400
Speaker 1: these guys are particularly good passers. But the list is

1107
01:02:13,400 --> 01:02:18,720
Speaker 1: Sam Donald, Carson Wentz, Jared Goff, Cam Newton, and Daniel Jones.

1108
01:02:18,760 --> 01:02:22,240
Speaker 1: Almost said scam Newton. But but there's some bad passers

1109
01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:26,080
Speaker 1: in there. Now. Wentz is a good passer and goffs

1110
01:02:26,080 --> 01:02:28,880
Speaker 1: a good pass They're not great, but they're good passers. Yeah.

1111
01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:33,360
Speaker 1: And then Berry had so Stubird had three fifty yards

1112
01:02:33,360 --> 01:02:36,080
Speaker 1: and three scores. Kyler had to thirty and a score

1113
01:02:36,120 --> 01:02:37,960
Speaker 1: through the air and another nine and a score on

1114
01:02:38,000 --> 01:02:40,560
Speaker 1: the ground. And by the way, Russell Wilson built a

1115
01:02:40,560 --> 01:02:42,920
Speaker 1: lot more like Kyler than some of these other quarterbacks,

1116
01:02:42,920 --> 01:02:44,960
Speaker 1: so he could get going. I got Russell Wilson as

1117
01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:47,640
Speaker 1: a solid A grade, and I'm giving A grades to

1118
01:02:47,720 --> 01:02:51,480
Speaker 1: both Tyler Lockett and DK Metcalf. In those two games

1119
01:02:51,480 --> 01:02:55,440
Speaker 1: against good quarterbacks. The wide receivers did well to DeAndre

1120
01:02:55,520 --> 01:02:58,120
Speaker 1: Hopkins had fourteen catches for a hundred and fifty one.

1121
01:02:58,400 --> 01:03:00,960
Speaker 1: Preston Williams had four catch is for one oh six

1122
01:03:00,960 --> 01:03:03,840
Speaker 1: in a score. Davante Parker even at fifty yards in

1123
01:03:03,840 --> 01:03:06,080
Speaker 1: a score in that game. So I think that they're

1124
01:03:06,080 --> 01:03:10,360
Speaker 1: both sitting on a grades. And now the running back position, boy,

1125
01:03:10,480 --> 01:03:13,600
Speaker 1: this is a mess. Game time decisions for Chris Carson,

1126
01:03:13,960 --> 01:03:18,240
Speaker 1: Carlos Hyde, and Travis Homer all questionable with various injuries.

1127
01:03:19,160 --> 01:03:21,680
Speaker 1: It's been flipping back and forth, who's the most healthy,

1128
01:03:21,720 --> 01:03:24,360
Speaker 1: who's the least healthy. And by the way, late afternoon start,

1129
01:03:24,560 --> 01:03:27,480
Speaker 1: so you're you're probably not gonna have answers for this

1130
01:03:27,600 --> 01:03:30,360
Speaker 1: when the early games kick off. I think that you're

1131
01:03:30,400 --> 01:03:33,920
Speaker 1: benching everybody, including rookie DJ Dallas, who is the only

1132
01:03:33,960 --> 01:03:37,000
Speaker 1: healthy guy on the depth chart. Right now, the Niners

1133
01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:40,080
Speaker 1: have allowed the fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs

1134
01:03:40,120 --> 01:03:42,920
Speaker 1: on the air, and if one of the above injured

1135
01:03:42,960 --> 01:03:47,160
Speaker 1: guys is active, it totally takes out the timeshare angle

1136
01:03:47,280 --> 01:03:49,920
Speaker 1: with DJ Dallas, so they're all on the back. I

1137
01:03:49,920 --> 01:03:52,360
Speaker 1: think that's the safe play, giving what we don't know

1138
01:03:52,640 --> 01:03:55,640
Speaker 1: going into that game. Vikings take on the Packers and

1139
01:03:56,160 --> 01:03:58,040
Speaker 1: this is going to be in all probability of one

1140
01:03:58,080 --> 01:04:00,760
Speaker 1: sided affair with a battered Vikings de fence. Let's start

1141
01:04:00,800 --> 01:04:03,000
Speaker 1: with the Vikings offense though, and Dalvin Cook, who does

1142
01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:06,360
Speaker 1: get an A grade. Packers are allowing one hundred fifty

1143
01:04:06,440 --> 01:04:10,320
Speaker 1: eight totally yards and one point four touchdowns. That is

1144
01:04:10,320 --> 01:04:13,440
Speaker 1: the fourth most and the second most respectively to opposing

1145
01:04:13,560 --> 01:04:17,080
Speaker 1: running backs on a per game basis, and that's I

1146
01:04:17,120 --> 01:04:19,080
Speaker 1: think the Vikings you're gonna try to run for as

1147
01:04:19,160 --> 01:04:21,560
Speaker 1: long as they can and keep Aaron Jones off the field.

1148
01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:26,400
Speaker 1: They want to replicate the game they had against Seattle. Well, sorry, Rodgers, Rodgers,

1149
01:04:26,600 --> 01:04:29,400
Speaker 1: I was trying to say, Aaron Rodgers, um, but that's okay.

1150
01:04:29,440 --> 01:04:31,920
Speaker 1: Feel you feel free to interrupt anyway, It's okay. I

1151
01:04:31,920 --> 01:04:38,600
Speaker 1: don't mind keep ball Packers off the field. Cook is uh.

1152
01:04:38,640 --> 01:04:40,960
Speaker 1: Cook has had great luck against the Packers, averaging one

1153
01:04:41,000 --> 01:04:44,280
Speaker 1: hundred thirty five total yards and one point three touchdowns

1154
01:04:44,280 --> 01:04:46,960
Speaker 1: per game against the Packers. Again, what I was gonna say,

1155
01:04:47,080 --> 01:04:49,320
Speaker 1: trying to replicate exactly what they did to Seattle, although

1156
01:04:49,360 --> 01:04:51,120
Speaker 1: in a losing effort a few weeks ago where they

1157
01:04:51,200 --> 01:04:53,600
Speaker 1: kept Russell Wilson off the field by just running the

1158
01:04:53,600 --> 01:04:56,320
Speaker 1: whole game and eating up the clock. That's their only

1159
01:04:56,400 --> 01:04:58,080
Speaker 1: real way to victory here. So I think I think

1160
01:04:58,080 --> 01:05:01,040
Speaker 1: we'll see plenty of Dalvin Cook. The other A grade

1161
01:05:01,120 --> 01:05:03,360
Speaker 1: is Justin Jefferson. See if you can follow me on this,

1162
01:05:03,720 --> 01:05:06,440
Speaker 1: Packers have got one elite cornerback j or Alexander. He

1163
01:05:06,520 --> 01:05:08,920
Speaker 1: shadows the opposing number one. I believe that will be

1164
01:05:08,960 --> 01:05:11,880
Speaker 1: Adam Feeland will be the number one because Theland has

1165
01:05:12,000 --> 01:05:15,640
Speaker 1: roasted this Packers team in the past really several years,

1166
01:05:16,040 --> 01:05:17,920
Speaker 1: So I believe that that will be the case. And

1167
01:05:17,960 --> 01:05:23,080
Speaker 1: that puts Justin Jefferson on far inferior coverage with Josh Jackson,

1168
01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:27,360
Speaker 1: who ranks his quarterback seventy three by Pro Football Focus.

1169
01:05:27,400 --> 01:05:30,120
Speaker 1: So Justin Jefferson I think potentially sitting a very good game.

1170
01:05:30,160 --> 01:05:32,840
Speaker 1: He ranks, by the way number one by Byroball Focus

1171
01:05:32,880 --> 01:05:36,400
Speaker 1: among all receivers, not just rookies, all receivers. Also, if

1172
01:05:36,440 --> 01:05:39,240
Speaker 1: it does become a really windy game, Justin Jefferson's averaged

1173
01:05:39,320 --> 01:05:42,440
Speaker 1: up of the target is much less than Adams, all right,

1174
01:05:42,440 --> 01:05:43,760
Speaker 1: so that might be safer as well. I might have

1175
01:05:43,800 --> 01:05:46,480
Speaker 1: more routes that are shorter the line of scrimmage. Theland

1176
01:05:46,640 --> 01:05:49,960
Speaker 1: drops to a B level here again, the gayer Alexander's

1177
01:05:49,960 --> 01:05:52,800
Speaker 1: shadow coverage is part of why. Although he battled him

1178
01:05:52,840 --> 01:05:54,800
Speaker 1: gamely in the opener, and he scored twice and put

1179
01:05:54,840 --> 01:05:57,000
Speaker 1: up a hundred ten yards, and so he can beat

1180
01:05:57,120 --> 01:06:00,320
Speaker 1: JayR Alexander. He's proven it already. But over the past

1181
01:06:00,360 --> 01:06:04,320
Speaker 1: three games, Alexander is held Will Fuller, Mike Evans, and

1182
01:06:04,400 --> 01:06:07,840
Speaker 1: Julio Jones, three other very good receivers to under fifty yards.

1183
01:06:08,720 --> 01:06:11,040
Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins was might take a chance on me quarterback.

1184
01:06:11,080 --> 01:06:12,840
Speaker 1: You heard that earlier in the show. He is a

1185
01:06:12,920 --> 01:06:16,440
Speaker 1: C grade. Now let's go to the Packers side. The

1186
01:06:16,520 --> 01:06:19,240
Speaker 1: Vikings are going to be without their number one, number two,

1187
01:06:19,280 --> 01:06:23,240
Speaker 1: and number four cornerbacks. Like cornerbacks they're gonna put on

1188
01:06:23,320 --> 01:06:27,960
Speaker 1: the field as starters. Matt Harrison, Matt Harrison, Matt Harrison

1189
01:06:28,080 --> 01:06:31,439
Speaker 1: hand the three guys that they will start. Gladne hand

1190
01:06:31,480 --> 01:06:35,400
Speaker 1: In fields have a combined six NFL starts against Aaron

1191
01:06:35,520 --> 01:06:40,080
Speaker 1: Rodgers and Davante Adams, who are obvious a's there's something

1192
01:06:40,160 --> 01:06:44,440
Speaker 1: better than an A, But yes there is there. There's

1193
01:06:44,480 --> 01:06:47,480
Speaker 1: the fantasy arc Vark, the double a double art Vark.

1194
01:06:47,600 --> 01:06:50,240
Speaker 1: If there's ever a time for the double a ard Vark,

1195
01:06:50,280 --> 01:06:56,400
Speaker 1: it's the double Aaron Rodgers and Davante Adams, who's got

1196
01:06:56,400 --> 01:06:59,520
Speaker 1: two ways in Adams as well. Ye, yes, so we'll

1197
01:06:59,560 --> 01:07:02,040
Speaker 1: go with that. Staying with the passing game, Marques Velde

1198
01:07:02,160 --> 01:07:04,960
Speaker 1: Scantling is a C grade. Here is a bit of

1199
01:07:04,960 --> 01:07:07,680
Speaker 1: a dart throw. The Vikings are allowing the most touchdowns

1200
01:07:07,680 --> 01:07:11,000
Speaker 1: and fourth most yards to opposing whiteouts, and Velde Scanty

1201
01:07:11,160 --> 01:07:13,720
Speaker 1: had an explosive game against the Vikings and the opener.

1202
01:07:13,960 --> 01:07:16,760
Speaker 1: But I'll mention this, He's done basically nothing else all year.

1203
01:07:17,080 --> 01:07:20,600
Speaker 1: So total dart throw on Marques Velde Scantling. But you'll

1204
01:07:20,640 --> 01:07:22,680
Speaker 1: never get a better matchup than this. He had a

1205
01:07:22,720 --> 01:07:24,840
Speaker 1: good matchup last week and didn't do anything either, so

1206
01:07:25,080 --> 01:07:28,200
Speaker 1: there's a lot several good matchups. He played Atlanta, did nothing,

1207
01:07:28,920 --> 01:07:31,600
Speaker 1: a lot of good, a lot of risk. Robert Tonyan

1208
01:07:32,320 --> 01:07:36,960
Speaker 1: is a Tonyan, thank you, that's right. Rou is a

1209
01:07:37,280 --> 01:07:40,200
Speaker 1: C grade after not allowing a touchdown to tight ends

1210
01:07:40,240 --> 01:07:42,320
Speaker 1: through the first four weeks. The Vikings have allowed a

1211
01:07:42,440 --> 01:07:45,040
Speaker 1: touchdown in their previous two games, and he is a

1212
01:07:45,120 --> 01:07:47,520
Speaker 1: touchdown dependent player, so I think you got a crack

1213
01:07:47,560 --> 01:07:49,560
Speaker 1: at a touchdown here. Vikings are also going to be

1214
01:07:49,600 --> 01:07:52,760
Speaker 1: short one of their linebackers as well due to COVID,

1215
01:07:53,400 --> 01:07:57,800
Speaker 1: and last lastly, actually second to lastly, going to the

1216
01:07:57,880 --> 01:08:02,120
Speaker 1: running game, Jamal Williams a grade with Aaron Jones out.

1217
01:08:02,360 --> 01:08:06,200
Speaker 1: Williams got of the snaps last week without Jones and

1218
01:08:06,360 --> 01:08:09,320
Speaker 1: he's been over and three straight weeks. Anyway, Vikings are

1219
01:08:09,400 --> 01:08:11,640
Speaker 1: middle of the pack run defense, giving up four yards

1220
01:08:11,680 --> 01:08:14,760
Speaker 1: per carry. Game script will work in williams favor here

1221
01:08:14,840 --> 01:08:17,240
Speaker 1: as the Vikings figure to be trailing throughout much of

1222
01:08:17,320 --> 01:08:19,640
Speaker 1: this game. And I'll note though that the Vikings have

1223
01:08:20,160 --> 01:08:24,639
Speaker 1: held their last three starting running backs to an average

1224
01:08:24,640 --> 01:08:26,439
Speaker 1: of just fifty four yards per games, so the run

1225
01:08:26,479 --> 01:08:29,479
Speaker 1: defense has been okay lately. But man, I just it

1226
01:08:29,600 --> 01:08:33,000
Speaker 1: feels like the run defense also had unique and go

1227
01:08:33,280 --> 01:08:35,920
Speaker 1: way on it it did, which that doesn't anymore. Hey,

1228
01:08:35,960 --> 01:08:38,000
Speaker 1: One of the thing to mention in this windy game

1229
01:08:38,200 --> 01:08:39,920
Speaker 1: with the conditions could be an issue and you'll want

1230
01:08:39,920 --> 01:08:42,720
Speaker 1: to check it before kickoff. Mason Crosby, their kicker for

1231
01:08:42,720 --> 01:08:45,400
Speaker 1: the backers, probably not going to play his games, so um,

1232
01:08:45,920 --> 01:08:48,920
Speaker 1: you may need to be searching for an emergency kicker

1233
01:08:49,040 --> 01:08:52,479
Speaker 1: if you have Mason Crosby. Let's start work in one

1234
01:08:52,680 --> 01:08:56,320
Speaker 1: more matchup, and that is Scott the Patriots taking on

1235
01:08:56,479 --> 01:08:59,120
Speaker 1: the Bills. I think we've reached a point where you

1236
01:08:59,360 --> 01:09:02,320
Speaker 1: can't start. Aren't any Patriots? No more? Not at all?

1237
01:09:02,360 --> 01:09:04,519
Speaker 1: All right, Well that's where we are. Yeah. Edelman's out,

1238
01:09:04,600 --> 01:09:07,400
Speaker 1: Harry's out. The running backs are mess. The Bills are

1239
01:09:07,479 --> 01:09:10,920
Speaker 1: tough against everything. The Bills have allowed several multi touchdown games,

1240
01:09:11,439 --> 01:09:15,160
Speaker 1: but Cam has just three passing touchdowns. Unbelievable in his

1241
01:09:15,280 --> 01:09:18,760
Speaker 1: five starts. That's fewer touchdowns than Tom Brady had last week. Yeah,

1242
01:09:19,439 --> 01:09:22,080
Speaker 1: that's insane. In the last four weeks, of different wide

1243
01:09:22,080 --> 01:09:25,320
Speaker 1: receivers lead the team and targets every week and only

1244
01:09:25,400 --> 01:09:27,519
Speaker 1: once this season is a new England wide receiver topped

1245
01:09:27,560 --> 01:09:31,200
Speaker 1: eighty yards. Yeah, they're on the bench, the terrible on

1246
01:09:31,280 --> 01:09:32,720
Speaker 1: the other side. By the way, we should me to

1247
01:09:32,760 --> 01:09:35,760
Speaker 1: Julian Edelman out, Yeah, edlemen and maybe out for a

1248
01:09:35,920 --> 01:09:38,679
Speaker 1: long time. And some people think it's a career ender

1249
01:09:38,720 --> 01:09:41,880
Speaker 1: for him. We'll see. Yeah, he's yeah, he's at that point.

1250
01:09:42,479 --> 01:09:44,840
Speaker 1: On the other side, I give Alan a B grade.

1251
01:09:45,160 --> 01:09:47,200
Speaker 1: He still has that super safe floor due to his

1252
01:09:47,280 --> 01:09:49,400
Speaker 1: rushing had seventeen rush attempts in the last two weeks,

1253
01:09:49,439 --> 01:09:53,080
Speaker 1: which we mentioned earlier last week. He only is the

1254
01:09:53,120 --> 01:09:56,439
Speaker 1: only week he failed to have multiple touchdowns. The Pats

1255
01:09:56,479 --> 01:09:59,639
Speaker 1: held down Lock and grapplone fits but gave Oka days

1256
01:09:59,680 --> 01:10:02,599
Speaker 1: to har Mahomes Wilson. Allen is far closer to those

1257
01:10:02,640 --> 01:10:05,560
Speaker 1: other three who had multiple touchdowns, So I gotta be

1258
01:10:05,680 --> 01:10:09,200
Speaker 1: grade over on Allen. Now into now into the passing game,

1259
01:10:09,360 --> 01:10:12,479
Speaker 1: John Brown has practiced fully. He's gonna play, which messes

1260
01:10:12,720 --> 01:10:16,880
Speaker 1: up stuff a little bit. Uh. If I told you

1261
01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:21,360
Speaker 1: that Beasley Cole Beasley was wide receiver nine team on

1262
01:10:21,439 --> 01:10:25,200
Speaker 1: the season before the season, he's He's what people thought

1263
01:10:25,280 --> 01:10:28,040
Speaker 1: Juju Smith Schuster was gonna be. I think you're right

1264
01:10:28,080 --> 01:10:32,479
Speaker 1: about that. Yeah, basically Beasley and Crowder are what you

1265
01:10:32,600 --> 01:10:35,679
Speaker 1: hoped for Jujuic Smith Schuster. I believe that comparison happened

1266
01:10:35,760 --> 01:10:41,320
Speaker 1: last week. Oh man, Uh tells I listened. No, Actually

1267
01:10:41,960 --> 01:10:44,680
Speaker 1: I just didn't. I didn't remember it. Uh, twenty five

1268
01:10:44,760 --> 01:10:47,200
Speaker 1: targets in the last three games. There may be a

1269
01:10:47,320 --> 01:10:51,040
Speaker 1: case here. If Gilmore does play, he'd be on Digs

1270
01:10:51,120 --> 01:10:53,760
Speaker 1: and Beasley would have the better matchup. If Gilmore doesn't plays,

1271
01:10:53,800 --> 01:10:56,400
Speaker 1: they all get better matchups. I have a C grade

1272
01:10:56,439 --> 01:10:58,599
Speaker 1: on Beasley if Gilmore doesn't play. I think I'm moving

1273
01:10:58,640 --> 01:11:00,720
Speaker 1: it to a B and a B on Diggs as well,

1274
01:11:00,800 --> 01:11:04,439
Speaker 1: because with no Gilmore, Diggs is gonna get his targets.

1275
01:11:04,479 --> 01:11:08,080
Speaker 1: He's got at least six catches in all but one game. Uh,

1276
01:11:08,520 --> 01:11:10,599
Speaker 1: John Brown, I'm giving a C grade two bit it's

1277
01:11:10,600 --> 01:11:12,800
Speaker 1: hard to trust him. He's gone out of one game,

1278
01:11:12,880 --> 01:11:15,519
Speaker 1: he's missed three other games. When he's played the full game,

1279
01:11:16,160 --> 01:11:19,120
Speaker 1: he's like a seventy seventy eight yards and a touchdown guy,

1280
01:11:19,600 --> 01:11:22,080
Speaker 1: and he's practiced fully. So I'm definitely I'm definitely going

1281
01:11:22,120 --> 01:11:24,559
Speaker 1: to give him a starting grade. But it's it's always

1282
01:11:24,560 --> 01:11:28,920
Speaker 1: a little bit of a risk um with the running backs. Yeah,

1283
01:11:29,600 --> 01:11:36,400
Speaker 1: it's uh Zack Moss, excuse me, Zack Moss. Bills are

1284
01:11:36,439 --> 01:11:40,040
Speaker 1: passing over sixty of the time and when they run

1285
01:11:40,120 --> 01:11:43,120
Speaker 1: it a lot of it's with Josh Allen mosson Singletary

1286
01:11:43,160 --> 01:11:46,400
Speaker 1: are splitting touches down the middle. If I have to

1287
01:11:46,439 --> 01:11:50,000
Speaker 1: start one, it's Moss. I'm giving him a courtesy C grade.

1288
01:11:51,200 --> 01:11:54,600
Speaker 1: Courtesy just because I'm in the room with Charge and

1289
01:11:54,640 --> 01:11:58,400
Speaker 1: he's gonna get mad and fired me. Singletary staff percentage

1290
01:11:58,479 --> 01:12:00,120
Speaker 1: is dropped three weeks in a row, so if us

1291
01:12:00,200 --> 01:12:03,200
Speaker 1: gets more work. Singletary has been bad, I'll get' get

1292
01:12:03,240 --> 01:12:04,880
Speaker 1: I'll give him Moss the C grade just so I

1293
01:12:04,880 --> 01:12:09,320
Speaker 1: don't get fired. It's worth it. Um One quick note

1294
01:12:09,520 --> 01:12:12,880
Speaker 1: while we while we wrap up this segment about Cam

1295
01:12:12,960 --> 01:12:15,400
Speaker 1: Newton and how bad he's been, I was trying to

1296
01:12:15,479 --> 01:12:21,280
Speaker 1: find a comparable for his passing this year. I couldn't

1297
01:12:21,320 --> 01:12:24,200
Speaker 1: find any active quarterback who's as bad as Cam Newton,

1298
01:12:24,280 --> 01:12:27,200
Speaker 1: so I had to go really into the depths. Do

1299
01:12:27,280 --> 01:12:32,720
Speaker 1: you guys remember Ja Marcus Purple Drank Russell. Yeah, Cam

1300
01:12:32,880 --> 01:12:39,679
Speaker 1: is throwing fewer touchdowns and more interceptions than Jam Marcus

1301
01:12:39,880 --> 01:12:43,360
Speaker 1: Russell did in his career on a per game basis.

1302
01:12:44,000 --> 01:12:48,719
Speaker 1: That's how bad it is for Cam Newton right now. Terrible.

1303
01:12:48,840 --> 01:12:52,519
Speaker 1: When we come back. Premature speculation. Three players you can

1304
01:12:52,560 --> 01:12:54,519
Speaker 1: pick up now that everybody else is going to want

1305
01:12:54,560 --> 01:12:57,200
Speaker 1: to pick up next week, but they're already on your team.

1306
01:12:57,439 --> 01:13:16,439
Speaker 1: Premature Speculation coming up next Welcome back, manas Football Weekly

01:13:40,360 --> 01:13:43,920
Speaker 1: Scott saying nice to random numbers. There's been so there's

1315
01:13:43,960 --> 01:13:46,679
Speaker 1: been so many epic moments already in this award winning

1316
01:13:46,720 --> 01:13:50,320
Speaker 1: episode of Fantasy Football Weekly. Uh. Premature Speculation is a

1317
01:13:50,360 --> 01:13:52,200
Speaker 1: segment in which we give you a player that you're

1318
01:13:52,200 --> 01:13:54,120
Speaker 1: going to want to pick up now because everybody else

1319
01:13:54,200 --> 01:13:56,759
Speaker 1: is going to try to pick up this player next week. Scott,

1320
01:13:56,880 --> 01:14:00,280
Speaker 1: who is your premature speculation player? I'm going Jalen here.

1321
01:14:00,600 --> 01:14:03,160
Speaker 1: I think it's finally time. Deshan Jackson is out for

1322
01:14:03,200 --> 01:14:06,080
Speaker 1: a while. Uh, it's it's been guys like Fulham and

1323
01:14:06,200 --> 01:14:09,320
Speaker 1: Ward playing Earth's is still out. He had ninety six

1324
01:14:09,400 --> 01:14:11,519
Speaker 1: yards in his first two weeks playing with a torn labor.

1325
01:14:11,680 --> 01:14:16,960
Speaker 1: I mean he's he's finally he's finally back. Um. Yeah,

1326
01:14:17,160 --> 01:14:19,679
Speaker 1: fourteen different receivers have top two hundred yards are scored.

1327
01:14:19,720 --> 01:14:23,080
Speaker 1: He might actually show up this week, but Jalen Reagor

1328
01:14:23,120 --> 01:14:26,599
Speaker 1: get him first round pick man. I've got another rookie

1329
01:14:26,640 --> 01:14:29,599
Speaker 1: wide receiver who's been injured. Michael Pittman returned to practice

1330
01:14:29,680 --> 01:14:32,200
Speaker 1: this week, which means the Colts have twenty one days

1331
01:14:32,240 --> 01:14:34,320
Speaker 1: to either activate him or put him on i R

1332
01:14:34,439 --> 01:14:35,880
Speaker 1: for the rest of the year. And they wouldn't have

1333
01:14:35,960 --> 01:14:38,679
Speaker 1: him practice if they weren't thinking about activating him. Let's

1334
01:14:38,720 --> 01:14:40,680
Speaker 1: say he sits this week, and let's even say he

1335
01:14:40,720 --> 01:14:43,880
Speaker 1: sits next week against Baltimore, that's fine. After that, he

1336
01:14:43,960 --> 01:14:50,120
Speaker 1: gets Tennessee, Green Bay, Tennessee again, Houston Vegas, then Houston again.

1337
01:14:50,560 --> 01:14:54,280
Speaker 1: Those are really really good runs that everyone but the

1338
01:14:54,360 --> 01:14:56,960
Speaker 1: Packers are bottom six in the league against wide receivers.

1339
01:14:57,000 --> 01:14:59,519
Speaker 1: You couldn't ask for a better schedule for Michael Pittman

1340
01:14:59,600 --> 01:15:02,160
Speaker 1: to come back and take over as wide receiver one

1341
01:15:02,479 --> 01:15:05,160
Speaker 1: in India. He really is. It's not t Y Hilton anymore, right,

1342
01:15:05,200 --> 01:15:07,600
Speaker 1: that is a job right for the taking. And so

1343
01:15:07,720 --> 01:15:10,880
Speaker 1: many other receivers, rookie receivers blossomed right around week four,

1344
01:15:11,000 --> 01:15:14,000
Speaker 1: week five. For him, that's just coming up now because

1345
01:15:14,040 --> 01:15:16,200
Speaker 1: of the time he missed well, and Pittman was starting

1346
01:15:16,280 --> 01:15:18,479
Speaker 1: to as well the right right when he got hurt.

1347
01:15:18,760 --> 01:15:22,280
Speaker 1: My premature speculation player is Dallas Goddard currently available and

1348
01:15:22,360 --> 01:15:25,559
Speaker 1: half of leagues people just dropped him forgot about Dallas Goddard.

1349
01:15:25,920 --> 01:15:28,920
Speaker 1: He may end up playing as fast as this Sunday.

1350
01:15:29,400 --> 01:15:32,679
Speaker 1: And if he does, what a fantastic spot he walks into.

1351
01:15:32,800 --> 01:15:35,280
Speaker 1: I'll remind you in the two healthy games he had

1352
01:15:35,320 --> 01:15:38,240
Speaker 1: at the start of the season nine targets and eight targets,

1353
01:15:38,640 --> 01:15:41,000
Speaker 1: and that was when zach Ertz was on the field.

1354
01:15:41,400 --> 01:15:44,280
Speaker 1: Now zach Ertz out at least a month and probably more.

1355
01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:47,320
Speaker 1: Dallas Goddard is going to become the go to receiver

1356
01:15:47,479 --> 01:15:49,360
Speaker 1: in this offense, and it could happen as fast as

1357
01:15:49,439 --> 01:15:51,800
Speaker 1: this weekend. You'll want to pick him up. He could

1358
01:15:51,920 --> 01:15:54,840
Speaker 1: finish out the season as one of the five highest

1359
01:15:54,880 --> 01:15:58,879
Speaker 1: scoring tight ends. Wouldn't be surprised. Bonus prespect Ellen Lazard

1360
01:15:59,200 --> 01:16:02,479
Speaker 1: started practice. He's available in thirty in sixty seven percent

1361
01:16:02,520 --> 01:16:03,920
Speaker 1: of leagues. I like it, a man. Do they need

1362
01:16:03,960 --> 01:16:06,120
Speaker 1: a second target to throw too? There? All right, let's

1363
01:16:06,120 --> 01:16:09,080
Speaker 1: get back to some matchups, including the Cowboys taking on

1364
01:16:09,240 --> 01:16:12,720
Speaker 1: the Eagles. Matt. There's just it's sad how little there

1365
01:16:12,800 --> 01:16:16,200
Speaker 1: is to talk about with the Cowboys anymore. Yeah, it's

1366
01:16:16,280 --> 01:16:20,519
Speaker 1: pretty bad. I'm giving Ezekiel Elliott a B, and it's

1367
01:16:20,600 --> 01:16:22,960
Speaker 1: kind of a generous B. I guess if it were

1368
01:16:23,040 --> 01:16:26,240
Speaker 1: like a Valentine on the front, they would say, be mine,

1369
01:16:27,240 --> 01:16:33,720
Speaker 1: us us, mind us. See what didn't trick me into

1370
01:16:33,800 --> 01:16:39,200
Speaker 1: giving him? Has topped? Good? Good job. Scott Zeke has

1371
01:16:39,240 --> 01:16:41,400
Speaker 1: stopped a hundred yards and four of his last five

1372
01:16:41,479 --> 01:16:43,479
Speaker 1: games against the Eagles, but the one he didn't was

1373
01:16:43,560 --> 01:16:45,679
Speaker 1: the most recent game and he only notched forty seven

1374
01:16:45,760 --> 01:16:50,679
Speaker 1: yards on thirteen attempts. And we've got Bendnucci likely starting,

1375
01:16:50,840 --> 01:16:53,000
Speaker 1: So the Eagles defense is just going to stack the

1376
01:16:53,080 --> 01:16:56,120
Speaker 1: box against the Cowboys. They were already allowing the fewest

1377
01:16:56,200 --> 01:16:59,080
Speaker 1: yards per carrying the league at three point three. So

1378
01:16:59,320 --> 01:17:02,000
Speaker 1: it's closer to a see I think than even a

1379
01:17:02,120 --> 01:17:06,120
Speaker 1: b here uh passing game. Andy Dalton still doubtful with

1380
01:17:06,200 --> 01:17:11,320
Speaker 1: that nasty concussion. So Ben DiNucci time in college, he

1381
01:17:11,439 --> 01:17:14,680
Speaker 1: had six touchdown passes and seven interceptions, starting for a

1382
01:17:14,800 --> 01:17:17,759
Speaker 1: full year. How do you go through a college schedule

1383
01:17:17,840 --> 01:17:20,600
Speaker 1: and throw six touchdowns? How do you watch? How do

1384
01:17:20,640 --> 01:17:23,080
Speaker 1: you put up those stats and get on an NFL roster.

1385
01:17:23,600 --> 01:17:25,559
Speaker 1: How does that happen? On the bright side, he did

1386
01:17:25,640 --> 01:17:30,280
Speaker 1: complete sixty of his passes last week. That's two of three. Uh.

1387
01:17:30,400 --> 01:17:33,479
Speaker 1: The Eagles defense is pretty good, though decently healthy considering

1388
01:17:33,520 --> 01:17:36,240
Speaker 1: it's the Eagles and the pass rushes legit. Add that

1389
01:17:36,360 --> 01:17:38,040
Speaker 1: and with a messed up OH line, and I think

1390
01:17:38,080 --> 01:17:40,479
Speaker 1: you have the entire passing game on the bench, including

1391
01:17:40,520 --> 01:17:43,839
Speaker 1: Amari Cooper, who will draw Darius Slay who's been excellent

1392
01:17:43,960 --> 01:17:46,920
Speaker 1: this year, Ceedee Lamb and Michael Gallup. Can only hope

1393
01:17:47,520 --> 01:17:50,080
Speaker 1: Ben de Nucci has two seconds to throw and he

1394
01:17:50,160 --> 01:17:53,040
Speaker 1: won't have that. Dalton Schultz also on the bench. And

1395
01:17:53,120 --> 01:17:56,000
Speaker 1: then let's go to the Eagles Boston. Scott was chartes

1396
01:17:56,080 --> 01:17:59,880
Speaker 1: take a chance on me, so was Greg Ward car

1397
01:18:00,120 --> 01:18:01,880
Speaker 1: and Wentz was fishes to take a chance on me

1398
01:18:02,320 --> 01:18:05,040
Speaker 1: doing your work for you. Really, thank you, guys. And

1399
01:18:05,120 --> 01:18:08,080
Speaker 1: then you guys talked about Jalen Reagor and Dallas Goddard.

1400
01:18:11,200 --> 01:18:13,519
Speaker 1: I'm a place, he's an a I think by the way,

1401
01:18:13,600 --> 01:18:17,599
Speaker 1: I'm I'm giving Scott and Wentz each a's and Ward

1402
01:18:17,680 --> 01:18:22,479
Speaker 1: a b oh he gave me a. Miles Sanders still

1403
01:18:22,520 --> 01:18:25,000
Speaker 1: not expected to play neither as alshon Jeffrey, and their

1404
01:18:25,080 --> 01:18:27,439
Speaker 1: bye week is next week, so if the Eagles wanted

1405
01:18:27,479 --> 01:18:30,160
Speaker 1: to hold them out one more week against the depleted

1406
01:18:30,240 --> 01:18:32,880
Speaker 1: Dallas team, this would probably be a week to give

1407
01:18:32,960 --> 01:18:35,800
Speaker 1: them all an extra game of rest. Um. I don't

1408
01:18:35,920 --> 01:18:37,920
Speaker 1: know if you can start reagor or got it because

1409
01:18:37,960 --> 01:18:40,280
Speaker 1: it's a Sunday night game, so I don't think that

1410
01:18:40,360 --> 01:18:42,240
Speaker 1: you can start either of them. So I am going

1411
01:18:42,280 --> 01:18:45,599
Speaker 1: to give Travis fulgum in a grade, especially if Regor sits.

1412
01:18:45,720 --> 01:18:49,960
Speaker 1: It's a B. If Regor comes back. Seven different perimeter

1413
01:18:50,040 --> 01:18:53,200
Speaker 1: wide receivers have topped eighty yards against the Cowboys this year.

1414
01:18:53,520 --> 01:18:56,240
Speaker 1: Five of those scored as well. Last guy, I'll mention

1415
01:18:56,360 --> 01:18:59,080
Speaker 1: Richard Rogers. He gets a B, especially if he's the

1416
01:18:59,200 --> 01:19:01,479
Speaker 1: only tight end of town or doesn't go shot or

1417
01:19:01,560 --> 01:19:04,599
Speaker 1: doesn't go yeah. If he he probably gets down graded

1418
01:19:04,600 --> 01:19:07,479
Speaker 1: to A. See Rogers played in eight of the snaps

1419
01:19:07,560 --> 01:19:10,120
Speaker 1: last week at six catches for eighty five yards. The

1420
01:19:10,240 --> 01:19:12,640
Speaker 1: Eagles throw to their tight ends no matter who it is,

1421
01:19:13,720 --> 01:19:16,519
Speaker 1: so I think that Richard Rodgers isn't play both ways.

1422
01:19:18,360 --> 01:19:20,560
Speaker 1: Saints take on the Bears, and let's start on the

1423
01:19:20,600 --> 01:19:22,840
Speaker 1: Saint side. Alvin Camara is an obviously, although I mentioned

1424
01:19:22,840 --> 01:19:25,080
Speaker 1: the Bears defense has been good, not great, but they've

1425
01:19:25,080 --> 01:19:27,519
Speaker 1: been good against runners all year long. But you're starting Camara,

1426
01:19:27,560 --> 01:19:30,000
Speaker 1: who's probably got the highest floor of any running back

1427
01:19:30,040 --> 01:19:32,720
Speaker 1: in the league. How about Latavius Murray? You might be

1428
01:19:32,760 --> 01:19:36,400
Speaker 1: asking C grade here, Um, it's maybe a bye week

1429
01:19:36,439 --> 01:19:39,439
Speaker 1: starting this about bye week? See grade Camara doesn't leave

1430
01:19:39,560 --> 01:19:41,200
Speaker 1: much on the table for Murray, but you know, you

1431
01:19:41,320 --> 01:19:44,400
Speaker 1: get ten touches, you get fifty total yards, and maybe

1432
01:19:44,720 --> 01:19:48,439
Speaker 1: maybe you get lucky with a touchdown. UM. Although four

1433
01:19:48,479 --> 01:19:50,760
Speaker 1: different backup runners have scored against the Bears, so he's

1434
01:19:50,760 --> 01:19:53,479
Speaker 1: got a chance. So CE grade for Latavias Murray. Let's

1435
01:19:53,479 --> 01:19:56,679
Speaker 1: go to the passing game. UM blots to not like here,

1436
01:19:57,120 --> 01:20:01,559
Speaker 1: So Marquez Callaway out, Michael Thomas out, Emmanuel Sanders out.

1437
01:20:01,800 --> 01:20:06,280
Speaker 1: So Drew Brees falls to a bench grade. Chicago is

1438
01:20:06,280 --> 01:20:09,519
Speaker 1: allowing less than one touchdown pass per game, and I

1439
01:20:09,640 --> 01:20:11,479
Speaker 1: just don't think you can dump off enough balls to

1440
01:20:11,520 --> 01:20:14,600
Speaker 1: Alvin Knara to get to a good final number for

1441
01:20:14,680 --> 01:20:17,880
Speaker 1: Drew Brees, so he's on the bench. Jared Cook gets

1442
01:20:17,880 --> 01:20:20,960
Speaker 1: a C grade. The Bears have been around the league

1443
01:20:21,000 --> 01:20:23,719
Speaker 1: average against tight ends in most categories, but They've allowed

1444
01:20:23,720 --> 01:20:25,880
Speaker 1: a tight end to put up at least fifty yards

1445
01:20:25,960 --> 01:20:29,599
Speaker 1: on five occasions. And Cook's recent outings have largely been

1446
01:20:29,600 --> 01:20:32,200
Speaker 1: supported by touchdowns, and the Bears have only given up

1447
01:20:32,240 --> 01:20:34,439
Speaker 1: one tight end score of the last three weeks. And

1448
01:20:34,560 --> 01:20:37,439
Speaker 1: I don't know he'll get a few extra passes his way.

1449
01:20:37,520 --> 01:20:39,960
Speaker 1: Just to see grade for Jared Cook, C grade for

1450
01:20:40,080 --> 01:20:43,880
Speaker 1: Tray Kwan Smith. Just super spotty production for him, even

1451
01:20:44,000 --> 01:20:46,800
Speaker 1: with all these players out. I don't know the automatically

1452
01:20:47,280 --> 01:20:49,760
Speaker 1: get does well here he runs from the slot. Primarily

1453
01:20:50,120 --> 01:20:53,000
Speaker 1: he'll match up against Buster Screen, who is allowing thirty

1454
01:20:53,080 --> 01:20:56,840
Speaker 1: nine yards and zero point two touchdowns per game in

1455
01:20:56,960 --> 01:20:59,360
Speaker 1: his coverage. Those aren't great numbers. And just to C

1456
01:20:59,560 --> 01:21:04,080
Speaker 1: grade for take Trey Kwan Smith, Deante Harris, it will Is,

1457
01:21:04,479 --> 01:21:06,160
Speaker 1: it's on the bench. I'm not even gonna I'm not

1458
01:21:06,160 --> 01:21:09,320
Speaker 1: even I'm not gonna laborate on Deante Harris. You've said

1459
01:21:09,360 --> 01:21:11,599
Speaker 1: too much. I already have. Let's go to Chicago. Allen

1460
01:21:11,680 --> 01:21:14,040
Speaker 1: Robinson is trying to clear the concussion protocol, so he

1461
01:21:14,320 --> 01:21:16,439
Speaker 1: does I don't think he does either, But if he

1462
01:21:16,479 --> 01:21:20,840
Speaker 1: surprises us and plays, it's an incredibly juicy matchup against

1463
01:21:20,920 --> 01:21:24,000
Speaker 1: Marshawn Lattimore, who has devolved into one of the worst

1464
01:21:24,240 --> 01:21:27,559
Speaker 1: cornerbacks in the NFL, allowing a near perfect passer rating

1465
01:21:27,720 --> 01:21:30,519
Speaker 1: of one fifty six in his coverage. So if Allen

1466
01:21:30,560 --> 01:21:34,920
Speaker 1: Robinson goes, definitely start him. If he doesn't go, then

1467
01:21:34,960 --> 01:21:37,200
Speaker 1: there's no part of the receiving group that I think

1468
01:21:37,240 --> 01:21:39,080
Speaker 1: you want, no receivers that you'll want to play. Well

1469
01:21:39,120 --> 01:21:40,960
Speaker 1: you do, you want to play him either way. Jimmy

1470
01:21:41,000 --> 01:21:43,600
Speaker 1: Graham gets a C grade. He might not need a

1471
01:21:43,680 --> 01:21:45,720
Speaker 1: touchdown to this week, as the Saints are allowing the

1472
01:21:45,800 --> 01:21:48,559
Speaker 1: third most receptions per game and fifth most yards per

1473
01:21:48,640 --> 01:21:51,840
Speaker 1: game to opposing tight ends, and they've allowed the third

1474
01:21:51,920 --> 01:21:54,360
Speaker 1: most touchdowns. So if you're kind of a tight end

1475
01:21:54,360 --> 01:21:56,600
Speaker 1: dependent player like Jimmy Graham, I think one way or

1476
01:21:56,600 --> 01:21:59,240
Speaker 1: another he could be okay here and a C grade

1477
01:21:59,400 --> 01:22:03,559
Speaker 1: on him. David Montgomery just a C grade. He hasn't

1478
01:22:03,600 --> 01:22:05,880
Speaker 1: topped three point four yards per carry in any of

1479
01:22:05,960 --> 01:22:09,400
Speaker 1: the last five games, including that juicy matchup with Carolina

1480
01:22:09,479 --> 01:22:12,240
Speaker 1: that he just blew. It'll be um, It'll be tough

1481
01:22:12,240 --> 01:22:15,120
Speaker 1: sledding against New Orleans Saints, allowing the eighth fewest rushing

1482
01:22:15,200 --> 01:22:18,439
Speaker 1: yards seventh fewest receiving yards per game to opposing running backs,

1483
01:22:18,840 --> 01:22:21,599
Speaker 1: and I'll mention his starting center, Cody white Hair, has

1484
01:22:21,640 --> 01:22:23,880
Speaker 1: been ruled out of this game. So really, I think

1485
01:22:23,920 --> 01:22:25,880
Speaker 1: if we're not a bye week, i'd be just saying

1486
01:22:25,960 --> 01:22:29,320
Speaker 1: bench grade on David Montgomery, but relative to everybody else,

1487
01:22:29,640 --> 01:22:32,160
Speaker 1: it's just a C grade here. Let's go to our

1488
01:22:32,200 --> 01:22:35,120
Speaker 1: final matchup, and that's Scott Fish with the Bucks taking

1489
01:22:35,160 --> 01:22:38,559
Speaker 1: on the Giants. The Bucks offense has been electrifying lately

1490
01:22:39,200 --> 01:22:42,160
Speaker 1: and that, but the Giants defense is much improved. Not

1491
01:22:42,320 --> 01:22:44,840
Speaker 1: it is, but it's much improved. Let's hear what you

1492
01:22:44,960 --> 01:22:48,160
Speaker 1: like about the Bucks. Yeah, the Brady's leading a second

1493
01:22:48,200 --> 01:22:51,960
Speaker 1: the NFL in passingdown and he's the NFL leading passing

1494
01:22:52,040 --> 01:22:56,519
Speaker 1: touch passing touchdown leader, topping Drew Brees just last week. Yeah,

1495
01:22:56,680 --> 01:23:00,080
Speaker 1: not bad, not bad so, and he's been doing in

1496
01:23:00,120 --> 01:23:02,800
Speaker 1: it with guys like Scotty Miller and Tyler Johnson stepping up.

1497
01:23:02,840 --> 01:23:05,240
Speaker 1: That whole next man up attitude has come from New

1498
01:23:05,320 --> 01:23:08,439
Speaker 1: England all the way over. The Giants have been top

1499
01:23:08,520 --> 01:23:13,240
Speaker 1: third against quarterbacks, though top twelve, so Tavia bay Uh's

1500
01:23:13,320 --> 01:23:15,000
Speaker 1: likely to go a little more bounced in this one.

1501
01:23:15,120 --> 01:23:18,000
Speaker 1: My theory on this game is that the Giants offense

1502
01:23:18,040 --> 01:23:19,840
Speaker 1: won't be able to do anything in the Bucks defense

1503
01:23:19,880 --> 01:23:21,519
Speaker 1: will be able to hold them down, and they're gonna

1504
01:23:21,640 --> 01:23:24,640
Speaker 1: run a ton more. So I'm only giving Brady the

1505
01:23:24,760 --> 01:23:27,160
Speaker 1: B grade on this one, even though he's been so

1506
01:23:27,400 --> 01:23:30,360
Speaker 1: lights out lately. I'm giving Scotty Miller the B grade

1507
01:23:30,400 --> 01:23:32,600
Speaker 1: as well. Has at least five targets in four of

1508
01:23:32,640 --> 01:23:35,120
Speaker 1: the six games, and when he gets five targets, he's

1509
01:23:35,120 --> 01:23:37,720
Speaker 1: been a lock for seventy plus yards. In fact, he

1510
01:23:37,800 --> 01:23:40,360
Speaker 1: reached seventy plus yards in all but one of his

1511
01:23:40,520 --> 01:23:44,160
Speaker 1: career games that he had five targets. Yeah, so I

1512
01:23:44,240 --> 01:23:46,879
Speaker 1: think seventy yards are in store. I should mention Godwin's

1513
01:23:46,920 --> 01:23:49,559
Speaker 1: out if I didn't. That's that's probably why I'm giving

1514
01:23:49,760 --> 01:23:52,800
Speaker 1: Miller the B here. Tyler Johnson's on the bench. He's

1515
01:23:52,800 --> 01:23:55,880
Speaker 1: scored in two straight, but he's talented. Just eleven yards

1516
01:23:55,920 --> 01:23:58,320
Speaker 1: on three targets and you need the touchdown, But so

1517
01:23:58,400 --> 01:24:01,080
Speaker 1: I'm putting him on the bench. Given Mike Evans the

1518
01:24:01,120 --> 01:24:03,840
Speaker 1: B grade, it might be a squeaky wheel against the

1519
01:24:03,920 --> 01:24:11,360
Speaker 1: cheese grease. We did that last year too, that same

1520
01:24:11,439 --> 01:24:15,000
Speaker 1: exact thing someone else did that My car seems to

1521
01:24:15,040 --> 01:24:19,320
Speaker 1: be squeaking. Give it some cheese. Yeah, exactly. Uh, he's

1522
01:24:19,360 --> 01:24:22,360
Speaker 1: still got the ankle. James Bradberry has blanketed Evans in

1523
01:24:22,400 --> 01:24:24,200
Speaker 1: the past, but that was with the Panthers. This is

1524
01:24:24,240 --> 01:24:27,719
Speaker 1: a new team, new defensive schemes, new quarterback, and about

1525
01:24:27,720 --> 01:24:32,040
Speaker 1: a hundred other differences. I still feel safe putting Evans in,

1526
01:24:32,160 --> 01:24:34,679
Speaker 1: and he's gonna need to produce with godwinel B grade,

1527
01:24:34,720 --> 01:24:38,120
Speaker 1: there be grade on Gronk. He's finally coming on with

1528
01:24:38,200 --> 01:24:40,479
Speaker 1: twenty two targets in the last three games over fifty

1529
01:24:40,560 --> 01:24:44,040
Speaker 1: yards and each scoring twice. He's actually got six red

1530
01:24:44,120 --> 01:24:46,280
Speaker 1: zone targets in the last three games. That's more than

1531
01:24:46,360 --> 01:24:50,160
Speaker 1: almost the entire receiving corps combined. For the box. He's

1532
01:24:50,479 --> 01:24:53,720
Speaker 1: getting those looks. And the Giants they're great against tight

1533
01:24:53,800 --> 01:24:56,559
Speaker 1: ends except for the fact they've faced one top twenty

1534
01:24:56,640 --> 01:24:59,000
Speaker 1: ranked tight end and that was Dalton Schultz, so they

1535
01:24:59,040 --> 01:25:01,400
Speaker 1: haven't not been test it at all. B grade for

1536
01:25:01,520 --> 01:25:06,880
Speaker 1: Gronk running game non PPR, you're going Jones PPR, you're

1537
01:25:06,920 --> 01:25:09,120
Speaker 1: going four day. Could I say that B grades for

1538
01:25:09,320 --> 01:25:12,240
Speaker 1: B grades for both, but for actually I have a

1539
01:25:12,360 --> 01:25:17,160
Speaker 1: B minus for Jones and the C plus. Yeah, B

1540
01:25:17,360 --> 01:25:20,479
Speaker 1: minus for Jones and C plus for okay, okay, fine,

1541
01:25:20,560 --> 01:25:22,560
Speaker 1: B for Jones, C for four Net, But I like

1542
01:25:22,680 --> 01:25:25,840
Speaker 1: for net a little bit more in PPR. Jones is

1543
01:25:25,880 --> 01:25:28,800
Speaker 1: the starter. He's running hard the Giants. T is no pushover.

1544
01:25:29,479 --> 01:25:32,120
Speaker 1: They've done well holding backs down. The reason I like

1545
01:25:32,240 --> 01:25:35,200
Speaker 1: for Net more in PPRS last week when Jones dropped

1546
01:25:35,200 --> 01:25:37,200
Speaker 1: the ball, for Nett played most of the fourth after

1547
01:25:37,400 --> 01:25:40,519
Speaker 1: after that drop, and for net is the past catching

1548
01:25:40,600 --> 01:25:43,600
Speaker 1: back there. It's weird to say, but he is. On

1549
01:25:43,720 --> 01:25:48,479
Speaker 1: the other side, Daniel Jones Porson quarterbacks are averaging two

1550
01:25:48,600 --> 01:25:50,960
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty three yards against the Bucks and they've

1551
01:25:50,960 --> 01:25:55,920
Speaker 1: only given up nine touchdowns in seven games. Yeah, nine

1552
01:25:56,040 --> 01:26:07,120
Speaker 1: times and justin justin air bear, justin, justin. I can

1553
01:26:07,200 --> 01:26:09,120
Speaker 1: tell you have kids, You've got you've got the roar.

1554
01:26:09,720 --> 01:26:12,800
Speaker 1: When is a third of ye, it's pretty easy. You

1555
01:26:12,920 --> 01:26:17,240
Speaker 1: just have Daniel Jones on the bench. I'm giving both

1556
01:26:17,479 --> 01:26:21,120
Speaker 1: Shepherd and Slayton Sea grades since week to only two

1557
01:26:21,240 --> 01:26:23,759
Speaker 1: wide receivers of top seventy five yards against the Bucks.

1558
01:26:24,120 --> 01:26:26,479
Speaker 1: It took Allen Robinson sixteen targets to get there. It

1559
01:26:26,520 --> 01:26:30,960
Speaker 1: took Nelson Agilar eight or nine. Excuse me, Davante Adam

1560
01:26:31,040 --> 01:26:33,639
Speaker 1: was with ten targets, only got like sixty six yards.

1561
01:26:33,720 --> 01:26:35,880
Speaker 1: How are you giving them seas? Then here we go.

1562
01:26:36,400 --> 01:26:39,040
Speaker 1: Shepherd is the safe play because he's got six catches

1563
01:26:39,080 --> 01:26:41,080
Speaker 1: in two of his last three games. And this this

1564
01:26:41,280 --> 01:26:45,920
Speaker 1: is a fun stat here, Uh, Shepherd has at least

1565
01:26:46,360 --> 01:26:50,960
Speaker 1: six targets in eighteen straight games. He gets peppered, he

1566
01:26:51,040 --> 01:26:53,639
Speaker 1: gets just enough. So I think he's the safe guy

1567
01:26:54,120 --> 01:26:57,479
Speaker 1: that you're gonna get sea level production. For Darius Slayton,

1568
01:26:57,520 --> 01:26:59,720
Speaker 1: I'm giving the se grade too, because they've given up

1569
01:27:00,160 --> 01:27:03,000
Speaker 1: four or five playce of over forty yards. You might

1570
01:27:03,040 --> 01:27:06,200
Speaker 1: remember Justin Herbert had two long fifty plus yard bombs.

1571
01:27:06,280 --> 01:27:16,720
Speaker 1: Justin who air bear. If we just s grade on

1572
01:27:16,960 --> 01:27:19,680
Speaker 1: Ingram almost very hesitant there. I expect a three for

1573
01:27:19,800 --> 01:27:22,120
Speaker 1: thirty three for forty type game. And the running backs

1574
01:27:22,120 --> 01:27:25,599
Speaker 1: around the bench, they're just terrible. Even Freeman's healthy, who

1575
01:27:25,680 --> 01:27:29,559
Speaker 1: cares final moments of the show, Davante se Man, I'm

1576
01:27:29,600 --> 01:27:32,799
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna give him a ce um when Christian

1577
01:27:32,840 --> 01:27:36,439
Speaker 1: McCaffrey has been healthy in the past, Matt he's been

1578
01:27:36,479 --> 01:27:41,479
Speaker 1: a nine percent of the of the workload guy. But

1579
01:27:41,600 --> 01:27:44,759
Speaker 1: Mike Davis has been so good. What is a reasonable

1580
01:27:44,840 --> 01:27:48,799
Speaker 1: expectation for Christian McCaffrey and his owners as he's expected

1581
01:27:48,840 --> 01:27:52,599
Speaker 1: to come back next week? Well, has Mike Davis been

1582
01:27:52,760 --> 01:27:56,120
Speaker 1: The last couple of games are dudish fire for Davis? Yeah,

1583
01:27:56,520 --> 01:28:01,040
Speaker 1: he he hasn't put up great rushing numbers. Uh, had

1584
01:28:01,080 --> 01:28:03,439
Speaker 1: a couple of games where he's averaging over five yards

1585
01:28:03,479 --> 01:28:06,160
Speaker 1: per carry, but a couple in there one point seven,

1586
01:28:06,520 --> 01:28:10,040
Speaker 1: three point five wasn't good. And Christian McCaffrey's you know,

1587
01:28:10,200 --> 01:28:12,920
Speaker 1: he's just an otherworldly talent. I don't think that it's

1588
01:28:12,920 --> 01:28:16,400
Speaker 1: gonna knock too many touches off of his docket. Maybe

1589
01:28:16,439 --> 01:28:18,559
Speaker 1: a few, maybe one or two and that's it. Yeah,

1590
01:28:18,800 --> 01:28:20,880
Speaker 1: just the goal I once to annoy it, right, wouldn't

1591
01:28:20,920 --> 01:28:24,360
Speaker 1: that be horrible Christian McCaffrey owners that have languaged through

1592
01:28:24,439 --> 01:28:26,040
Speaker 1: this and then he doesn't get the ball to stripe.

1593
01:28:26,080 --> 01:28:28,720
Speaker 1: It wouldn't surprise me if Carolina worked in more to

1594
01:28:28,920 --> 01:28:32,120
Speaker 1: running back sets though, with with two good pass catching

1595
01:28:32,200 --> 01:28:35,320
Speaker 1: running backs, maybe it'll go that way and we'll find out.

1596
01:28:35,520 --> 01:28:38,040
Speaker 1: I'm I'm I'm pretty optimistic that it's going to be

1597
01:28:38,120 --> 01:28:42,519
Speaker 1: mostly Christian McCaffrey. If you haven't already, we encourage you
