00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 1: very nearly into Week eight, which means we really are

8
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:37,920
Speaker 1: getting into the stretch run of the fantasy regular season.

9
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:40,839
Speaker 1: It has been a wild and interesting year and Sunday

10
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 1: saw a lot of huge fantasy performances. We'll talk about

11
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:46,480
Speaker 1: a few of those on today's show with Kimmy Checks,

12
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 1: as we always do on a Monday. Also run through

13
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 1: some of your waiver wire picks, trying to figure out

14
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:53,760
Speaker 1: some running back rotations that have popped up around the league.

15
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 1: And we'll preview the Monday night game between the Bears

16
00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:58,560
Speaker 1: and the Rams. But before we do that, we'll talk

17
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:00,720
Speaker 1: to our faithful producers. See your ed word l Murphy

18
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 1: esquire Murph, I hope that we can treat a jaca

19
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 1: and how you feeling well? It was great no Giants

20
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 1: on Sunday, so at least their weekenders are ruined by them. Um.

21
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,680
Speaker 1: But I will say in terms of fantasy, this is

22
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 1: weirdly the first time with all my teams I'm going

23
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 1: into the Monday night game down and have a player

24
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,120
Speaker 1: to boost me ahead to win the game. So now

25
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:22,320
Speaker 1: I am nervous. I am very invested in the Rams, uh,

26
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,640
Speaker 1: specifically Darrell Henderson. So, Darrell Henderson, I know you will

27
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 1: be listen to this podcast later day to prepped you

28
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 1: for the game. I just need seventeen So I need

29
00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:32,680
Speaker 1: seventeen points. I'm gonna get w so just please just

30
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,119
Speaker 1: do it for me. You know what. At this point,

31
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 1: I'm sort of all in on Darrell Henderson just because

32
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:39,400
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know what else to do with

33
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 1: that Rams backfield. He was the guy that I sort

34
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 1: of rode with in drafts, so I'm in on it.

35
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:44,960
Speaker 1: But it's not It's always fun, I think, to have

36
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 1: a real rooting interest on Monday night, if if, even

37
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:49,720
Speaker 1: if one of your teams isn't and it's sort of

38
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 1: nice to be invested in that game totally. I mean,

39
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 1: it's good to feel something again, uh, towards NFL football.

40
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: So if it's not my team, it's uh, it's guys

41
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 1: that I have on my fan team, So it's great

42
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 1: to be super invested in tonight. Absolutely, we'll talk about

43
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 1: that later on in the show. But to help us

44
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 1: do that and plenty more on this Monday show, joined

45
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 1: by the one and only Kimmy Checks and you were

46
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 1: showing me pictures of that beautiful brisket you guys smoked

47
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: on Sunday. Was it as delicious as it looked? It

48
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,519
Speaker 1: was as delicious and then even more it was the

49
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 1: highlight of the Sunday Also football of course as well.

50
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: But it's been fun to kind of have this new

51
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,239
Speaker 1: weekend tradition, especially because of quarantine and the fact that

52
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 1: we are working from home and watching games from home,

53
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:37,239
Speaker 1: that I have perfected a tragger barbecue. My fiance and

54
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 1: I we fired up every weekend and smoke a different

55
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:40,639
Speaker 1: type of meat. So I don't know what's on the

56
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 1: docket for next week, but once we get out of COVID, Marcus,

57
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:45,840
Speaker 1: I will smoke all of the meats and give them

58
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:47,799
Speaker 1: to you and your family, and I will be a

59
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 1: true Kansas City barbecue queen. It sounds sounds pretty fantastic.

60
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 1: Let's now turn our attention to some fancy headlines, and

61
00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:01,239
Speaker 1: our first one definitely not so fantastic. Odell Beckham Jr.

62
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 1: Is expected to miss the rest of the season. He

63
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: has a torn a c L suffered in the first

64
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 1: quarter of Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Really injured

65
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 1: himself after trying to make a tackle on an interception

66
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 1: thrown by Baker Mayfield. And so obviously the huge loss

67
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,959
Speaker 1: for the Browns offense, a huge loss for fantasy managers

68
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 1: as well. But now with Beckham out of the lineup,

69
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 1: who do you expects gonna step up? Jimmy Well, obviously,

70
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 1: the very first name that we're going to talk about

71
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 1: him mentioned is Jarvis Landry. Right. He's been that number

72
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,639
Speaker 1: two and that offense all season long. Uh, and he's

73
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 1: been productive on top of that. Though, and this is

74
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 1: the caveat we have figured out that he's also been

75
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 1: playing through an injury. Obviously, not something that is good

76
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 1: if you have him in your fantasy lineup, because you

77
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 1: don't know the volatility of if he's gonna be good,

78
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 1: if he's going to be bad, if that injury is

79
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: going to be severe enough to knock him out of

80
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: the game. So I want to go a lot deeper

81
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 1: on the depth chart, and especially for those of you

82
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 1: who play in a deeper league, look for the name

83
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 1: Conovan People's Jones. You saw he was the one who

84
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: caught that game winning touchdown on Sunday and that win

85
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 1: over Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals. Now, his main

86
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 1: job before Odell Beckham Jr. Went out Is he was

87
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,160
Speaker 1: a primary returner. But I could see that role amplifying

88
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 1: with Odell Beckham Jr. Out now for the rest of

89
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,160
Speaker 1: the season. So obviously we're gonna talk later in the

90
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,560
Speaker 1: show about some other waiver wire targets. I don't know

91
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 1: if I would go run out and grab this guy immediately,

92
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:28,839
Speaker 1: but you have to look and see that Baker Mayfield

93
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 1: went to him and trusted him in that game winning

94
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 1: situation where he absolutely needed to catch the ball. So

95
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 1: maybe good things for him. But again, I know that's

96
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 1: a lot deeper of a name, uh, you know, on

97
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:41,040
Speaker 1: the waiver wire list and just as a priority in

98
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 1: fantasy football, but you have to note what he did yesterday.

99
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 1: Rashard Higgins is a name that has been certainly popular,

100
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 1: I think in fantasy circles over the last couple of years,

101
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 1: Hollywood Higgins, I think they were calling him, although I

102
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 1: think that's faded away now that Marquise Hollywood Brown is

103
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,720
Speaker 1: the thing. I don't know they can battle it out

104
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 1: over that. I have nothing to do with it, but

105
00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 1: Rashard Higgins is a name that has certainly drawn some

106
00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: in tris. He has had some some big games. To

107
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 1: see the numbers their six targets, six catches for a

108
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 1: hundred and ten yards, So it seems like he's kind

109
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 1: of the first guy up. You mentioned Donovan People's Jones

110
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 1: who ended up having the game winning touchdown catch for

111
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,280
Speaker 1: the Browns on Sunday. He's the guy who's gonna be

112
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,920
Speaker 1: in line and the Cardero Hodge who maybe it's kind

113
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: of a deeper pull. He's kind of a name I

114
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: think in in some deeper leagues, But he is a

115
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,839
Speaker 1: guy that I know folks around Cleveland are excited about.

116
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:26,159
Speaker 1: He's come on and made some plays. Uh, He's coming

117
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,320
Speaker 1: back off of injury, should be back available with this

118
00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 1: team soon. So again, if you were in deeper leagues,

119
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,720
Speaker 1: maybe that's the name you consider. But I do think

120
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 1: it's going to be sort of a combination of guys

121
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 1: Jarvis Landry obviously is gonna see a lot of work.

122
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:39,280
Speaker 1: We saw the tight ends Harris and Bryant and David

123
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 1: and Joke who step up and make some plays in

124
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:42,800
Speaker 1: the passing game as well. So I think it's gonna

125
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 1: be sort of a collective effort when it comes to

126
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: the Browns passing game and who's gonna catch passes for them.

127
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:50,600
Speaker 1: But it definitely a big, big loss of something that

128
00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,840
Speaker 1: Hey coach Kevin Stefanski said on Monday morning. You can't

129
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 1: easily replace a guy with the talent of Odell Beckham Jr.

130
00:05:58,080 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 1: But we're gonna see how the Browns try to do

131
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: it for the rest of the season. But on the field,

132
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 1: it ended up being a really entertaining game between the

133
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 1: Browns and the Bengals, Cleveland getting a last second win.

134
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,479
Speaker 1: They're on the touchdown pass the Baker Mayfield. I will

135
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 1: take some credit for motivating Baker to this huge game

136
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:18,280
Speaker 1: because in Slack on Sunday, I said something to the

137
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 1: effect that after a bad started he was over five

138
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 1: with an interception, and I think I said something to

139
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 1: the effect of, guys, I don't think Baker is very good.

140
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 1: Then he didn't throw an interpletion for the rest of

141
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,160
Speaker 1: the day, ended up with five touchdown passes. So for

142
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 1: the Browns fans and for fantasy managers, and for Baker himself,

143
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 1: you're welcome. I will I will gladly take credit for that.

144
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow also having a huge day, going over four

145
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:42,479
Speaker 1: hundred passing yards and doing big things again for the Bengals.

146
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 1: But if we were going forward from here to the

147
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 1: end of the season, which of these two guys would

148
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,360
Speaker 1: you rather have on your fantasy roster. Well, first of all,

149
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 1: from here on out, for the rest of the season,

150
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,680
Speaker 1: anytime a fantasy player of mine is doing badly, I'm

151
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 1: going to slack you and say that they're not very good,

152
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 1: and then hopefully they'll pull a Baker Mayfield and turn

153
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,600
Speaker 1: it around and I can inspire them the way that

154
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,359
Speaker 1: you've inspired Baker. But if I had to choose between

155
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,600
Speaker 1: these two guys for the rest of the season, I'm

156
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 1: gonna swing with the rookie on this one, just because one,

157
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: I love Joe Burrow, I love him at L s U,

158
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 1: and I think there's big things in store for him

159
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 1: at the NFL. But you have to look up the

160
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 1: situation for that. For that Bengals team, they consistently play

161
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,640
Speaker 1: from behind, and that's just the situation because of that

162
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 1: Oh line and the way that they just let Joe

163
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,600
Speaker 1: Burrow get hammered every single week. But Joe Burrow, he

164
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 1: consistently has to air out the ball so that they

165
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 1: can play catchup and win games. As you saw, you

166
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 1: had three passing touchdowns and he rushed for a touchdown himself.

167
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 1: I think his mobility, his speed, the way that he

168
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: throws the ball. He has like forty plus passes in

169
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 1: in every game he's played something crazy like that. Don't

170
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 1: quote me though. So because of all of those reasons,

171
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 1: I trust Joe Burrow more, plus the fact that he's

172
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 1: really connecting with his receivers and Tyler Boyd and t Higgins.

173
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 1: So Joe Burrow all the way from me. Yeah, I'm

174
00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,600
Speaker 1: with you on that one. I'm fleeting me behind Joey

175
00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 1: Burrow the situation. But part of it is, as you mentioned,

176
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 1: the Bengals are gonna be playing from behind frequently. They're

177
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,200
Speaker 1: going to ask him to throw the football. Uh He's

178
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 1: thrown it well over a hundred times in the two

179
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 1: games that they played against the Cleveland Browns. So that's

180
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 1: going to continue to be the case for him. The

181
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: other part of it it is, when it comes to Baker,

182
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 1: the Browns still want to run the football a lot,

183
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 1: and Nick Chubb is going to be back probably in

184
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,720
Speaker 1: the next couple of weeks. We've seen them lean very

185
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 1: heavily on Kareem Hunt, so that I think is still

186
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 1: going to be the primary focus of this Brown's offense,

187
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 1: which means you're not gonna have a lot of games

188
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 1: where they expect Baker to throw the ball a lot,

189
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 1: and if they do, that means something has probably gone wrong.

190
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 1: So I if we're just talking straight up fantasy, I

191
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,280
Speaker 1: think I think joe Burrows the guy. Actually, I think

192
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 1: in in in real football, and I know, look, Baker,

193
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 1: I know is still fairly early in his career, but

194
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:47,000
Speaker 1: I think Burrow right now seems to have a higher

195
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 1: ceiling than Baker Mayfield. Does you know. We'll let that

196
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 1: one play out, but certainly in fantasy the rest of

197
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 1: the way, I think Joey b is going to be

198
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 1: the guy. Speaking of being the guy, Tyler Lockett was

199
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 1: totally that dude on Sunday Night, fifteen catches for two

200
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 1: hundred yards and three type sounds fifty three Fantasy points.

201
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 1: You know, on Friday we do our Aska Nerds segment.

202
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 1: In this past week it was top single game wide

203
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:12,199
Speaker 1: receiver performances since the year two thousand and what Lockett

204
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 1: did last night actually got him into that list that

205
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 1: tied him at number five with Brandon Marshall. Huge day.

206
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,120
Speaker 1: But the issue with Tyler Locke it tends to be

207
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 1: that he's a bit of a roller coaster. He's up

208
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,199
Speaker 1: some weeks. In the next week he might give you

209
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,480
Speaker 1: just thirty five or forty receiving yards. He has does

210
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 1: our pal Matt Harmon would say a costco player where

211
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,559
Speaker 1: he tends to score his fantasy points in bulk. So

212
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,199
Speaker 1: you've got one of those big bulk games for him.

213
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 1: Do you do you just ride the roller coaster or

214
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 1: do you maybe see if you know you you dangle

215
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 1: him out there and you get some pieces back, then

216
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 1: give you a more stable week to week floor. Well,

217
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:46,520
Speaker 1: first of all, let me say r a p to

218
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 1: me in my fantasy dreams, because of course this week

219
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 1: I go up against somebody that has Tyler Lockett on

220
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 1: their fantasy roster, and I just watched those fifty three

221
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 1: points accumulate as I'm trying to enjoy that football game,

222
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 1: which completely ruined it for me. However, let's it's on

223
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:02,960
Speaker 1: Tyler Lockett here. I told you last week, I am

224
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 1: a trade chicken. I'm a chicken to trade for someone.

225
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,439
Speaker 1: I'm a chicken to trade away someone. But I'm learning

226
00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,839
Speaker 1: my lesson and I completely agree with you and what

227
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 1: you said. The volatility of Tyler Lockett of not knowing

228
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:14,679
Speaker 1: are we going to get a thirty eight fantasy point

229
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 1: performance or a eight fantasy point performance. That then gives

230
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 1: me the inclination that because of last night's game and

231
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,439
Speaker 1: the points that he put up, you could dangle him

232
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,440
Speaker 1: out on the trade block and see what you can

233
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 1: get in return. So, if I had any advice, maybe

234
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 1: you're right now it is the time to trade away

235
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 1: Tyler Lockett. I go back and forth on this one

236
00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:39,120
Speaker 1: because I do sort of I I tend to stay

237
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 1: away from guys that have that volatility. It was a

238
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 1: big reason, for instance, that I was uh, sort of

239
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,320
Speaker 1: advocating staying away from Amari Cooper, although he's been yeah,

240
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 1: I guess okay. Uh. Tyler Lockett is another one of

241
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 1: those guys who the highs are really high. The lows

242
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,559
Speaker 1: are really low. I think I may go against my

243
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,839
Speaker 1: own advice. I may hold on the Tyner lock it.

244
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 1: Come on, what are you doing? Just the sort of

245
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 1: just the sort of I don't know, Uh, take the

246
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:05,520
Speaker 1: chance on it, right, I mean it seems a thing

247
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 1: like things alternate between he and DK Metcalf, But I

248
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 1: do Here's the thing. I would at least maybe make

249
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 1: some offers. See what people are willing to give me,

250
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 1: and if the look if the offer is right, if

251
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 1: somebody wants to give me something ridiculous, if there's somebody

252
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,079
Speaker 1: who's sort of out of their mind and they want to, like,

253
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,000
Speaker 1: you know, counterback with like DeAndre Hopkins, like I'm not

254
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 1: gonna say no to that, um. But but I think,

255
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:31,199
Speaker 1: you know, I think it's a weird spot to be in,

256
00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:32,960
Speaker 1: right because you look at that and you're like, man,

257
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,079
Speaker 1: three touchdowns two hundred yards, Like, why would I give

258
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,679
Speaker 1: that away? But I think people who have roote, who

259
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 1: have written with Tyler Lockett understand that. You know. In fact,

260
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:43,440
Speaker 1: I got some people in my mentions last night saying, yeah,

261
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,320
Speaker 1: it's great until he gives you a four for thirty

262
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 1: three the very next week. And so I think people

263
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 1: sort of understand that, and so uh, I think I

264
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,240
Speaker 1: think I'm gonna try to live with it. But I

265
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 1: understand putting them out there and seeing what you can get.

266
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 1: So I I I think there's sort of two sides

267
00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,600
Speaker 1: of this whole thing. Um, I mean, if you want

268
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:01,880
Speaker 1: to give me Tyler Lockett, uh, you know, if you

269
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 1: haven't anywhere you want to trade him to me, I

270
00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 1: will definitely put together a trade offer for you to point. Um,

271
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:11,599
Speaker 1: what might be a little bit bit more difficult to

272
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,319
Speaker 1: engineer a trade deal for right now is Cam Newton,

273
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,199
Speaker 1: who the first couple of weeks of the season, it

274
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:18,480
Speaker 1: looked like Cam was back to being the old Kim

275
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,560
Speaker 1: and and everything was gonna be great. Then obviously missed

276
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 1: some time after being diagnosed with COVID nineteen, has come

277
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: back and last couple of games have not been great.

278
00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:31,079
Speaker 1: Sunday was probably a low point certainly for the season.

279
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,559
Speaker 1: Had an awful game against San Francisco forty Niners ended

280
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 1: up getting benched in favor of Jared Stidham. Now, after

281
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 1: the game, head coach Bill Belichick says that Cam's still

282
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:42,839
Speaker 1: the starter, so we're still gonna go with him, So

283
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:46,640
Speaker 1: don't think about a quarterback controversy. But for us, where

284
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,360
Speaker 1: we have maybe some more options at quarterback, what are

285
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,560
Speaker 1: we doing with Cam Newton? Now? Well, I think because

286
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 1: we didn't know what Cam Newton we were going to

287
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 1: get before the season had started. A lot of people

288
00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 1: picked up Cam Newton as a streaming quarterback option, espect sleef.

289
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:03,000
Speaker 1: Guys played in two quarterback leagues like I did. So

290
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 1: that's what I had done in this situation. Now, the

291
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 1: first few weeks, that's when I started scratching my head

292
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 1: and I'm like, is do I live in a world

293
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 1: where I would ever replace Patrick Mahomes with Cam Newton?

294
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,199
Speaker 1: Obviously the answer is no. But those first performances and

295
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,040
Speaker 1: all those rushing touchdowns he had, it was really attractive

296
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 1: for for fantasy managers. Excuse me, I'll just brisk get

297
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,480
Speaker 1: in my teeth from last night. Anyway, Cam Newton, now

298
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,920
Speaker 1: what do we do from here? I think he continues

299
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,719
Speaker 1: to be a streaming option quarterback. I don't don't think

300
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,079
Speaker 1: you should quite dump him off yet because I think

301
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,439
Speaker 1: if if I figured out anything from Cam Newton, he

302
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,400
Speaker 1: likes to prove people wrong, and I think he's gonna

303
00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:39,319
Speaker 1: learn from this performance. If you look at the press

304
00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:42,560
Speaker 1: coverage after the game yesterday, he took full accountability. He says,

305
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 1: I need to be better. I understand I have to

306
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 1: be better, and if I don't play well, then yes

307
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 1: I'm going to get bench, and I respect that decision.

308
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 1: But that's not at all what he wants to do.

309
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 1: He wants to come back out and be the m

310
00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 1: v P like Cam that we know when we love.

311
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,120
Speaker 1: So I would hold our horses, continue to have him

312
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:01,199
Speaker 1: on the bench as you're streaming. Quarterback depended on the matchup,

313
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 1: but let's just see if he can have a bounce

314
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 1: back week and then go from there. I think the

315
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:07,679
Speaker 1: point you made though about people having multiple quarterbacks with

316
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 1: Cam is probably a good one. If if you are

317
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,679
Speaker 1: carrying multiple quarterbacks, I think that allows you to be

318
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:16,040
Speaker 1: a little bit more patient with Cam Newton. I think

319
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 1: in the past and a lot of years, I've always

320
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:22,040
Speaker 1: just advocated keeping one quarterback, not not having a second one.

321
00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:23,840
Speaker 1: But this was a year that I certainly was on

322
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 1: board with doubling up on certain positions, whether it was quarterback, tighten,

323
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 1: what have you, doubling up there because we just didn't

324
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 1: know what was going to happen with COVID nineteen and

325
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 1: that sort of thing. So chances are you probably do

326
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 1: have another quarterback, especially because Cam was going off the

327
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 1: board so late. So I think in that respect, uh,

328
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 1: you you can't sort of hold on to him and

329
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 1: and wait for the matchup to be right. I don't

330
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:46,960
Speaker 1: know if this week is the one they've got the

331
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 1: bills coming up. That's sort of been a hit or

332
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,000
Speaker 1: mismatchup I think for a lot of quarterbacks, So this

333
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,200
Speaker 1: might not be a week to rush him back into

334
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 1: your lineup. If you play in a league with a

335
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 1: shorter bench where you can really only afford to carry

336
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 1: one quarterback, I think can put Cam back on the

337
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 1: waiver wire because I just don't think that there's there's

338
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 1: not a reason right now to hold him. Uh. He's

339
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 1: not going to be so coveted that if you drop him,

340
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 1: people are gonna rush to pick him up. People are

341
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 1: gonna look at what happened the last couple of weeks,

342
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 1: and it sort of decided maybe we stay away from

343
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:17,440
Speaker 1: Cam until the coast is clear. But it has been

344
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 1: a significant downturn the last couple of weeks and and

345
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 1: certainly reason to be concerned about a lot of pieces

346
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:25,840
Speaker 1: uh in that Patriots offense, not the least of which

347
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:29,000
Speaker 1: is Cam Newton. Right now, all right. Today's show is

354
00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 1: by castrol Edge. Monday means Checks marks the spot. We

355
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:51,880
Speaker 1: pick three guys and Jimmy kind of gives us her

356
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,640
Speaker 1: thoughts on what she believes you're gonna do growing out

357
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:55,960
Speaker 1: for the rest of the season. So I got a

358
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 1: trio of guys and wanting to know whether or not

359
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 1: you're back on the bandwagon for them. Maybe they struggled early,

360
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 1: they started to turn around, and whether or not you

361
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 1: believe that this is something that's gonna be for real.

362
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:08,920
Speaker 1: So the first one is d J. Moore and we've

363
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,760
Speaker 1: sort of been kind of wishy washy on him. Robbie

364
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 1: Anderson had a great start to the season. We were

365
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 1: underwhelmed with d J. Moore, but if you look closely,

366
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:21,040
Speaker 1: he's had exactly ninety three receiving yards in three straight games,

367
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,800
Speaker 1: which is weird and kind of amazing on its own,

368
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 1: but it also does speak to the fact that maybe

369
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,600
Speaker 1: he's been better than we want to give him credit for.

370
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 1: The two touchdowns on Sunday certainly helped. So are we

371
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 1: back on the d J Moore bandwagon? Now? You know,

372
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 1: I've actually been back on the d J Moore bandwagons

373
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 1: since Week five because that has been when he really

374
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,760
Speaker 1: started to see the consistency. If you look from Week

375
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:46,360
Speaker 1: five to now, those three games combined, he's average nineteen

376
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 1: point six Fantasy points and he's clearly becoming a major

377
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 1: receiving option and threat for Teddy Bridgewater and the Panthers. Now,

378
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 1: yesterday I thought it was going to be way more

379
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:57,680
Speaker 1: of a Robbie Anderson game, but that just wasn't the case.

380
00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 1: But I'm not hating against DJ Moore. I'm actually really

381
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:03,040
Speaker 1: happy for him, and I think fantasy managers should hold

382
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:06,359
Speaker 1: onto them and kind of continue to expect these plus

383
00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 1: fourteen fantasy point performances week by week. If you look

384
00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:12,160
Speaker 1: at the matchups for the Panthers from here on out,

385
00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:15,480
Speaker 1: next week, Dj Moore should be an absolute must start

386
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:17,959
Speaker 1: because they're playing the Atlanta Falcons. I think we all

387
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:21,280
Speaker 1: understand why you start everybody against the Falcons, but then

388
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:23,880
Speaker 1: they take on the Kansas City Chiefs, then they take

389
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:26,360
Speaker 1: on the Bucks, and then the Lions and the Vikings

390
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 1: before they have their by I would temper expectations in

391
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,440
Speaker 1: some of those tougher games, especially against the Chiefs, but

392
00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,560
Speaker 1: at least for next week, DJ Moore must start against

393
00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,960
Speaker 1: the Falcons. I'm on the bandwagon. He has uh, he's

394
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,640
Speaker 1: been a top fifteen receiver the last couple of weeks.

395
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 1: In fact, he's outscored Robbie Anderson over that period, So

396
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:46,600
Speaker 1: maybe he's starting to get back to the guy we

397
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:48,200
Speaker 1: thought he would be at the start of the year.

398
00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,840
Speaker 1: Definitely very encouraging for anybody who spent an early round

399
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 1: draft pick on him and has been frustrated so far.

400
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:56,960
Speaker 1: All right, well stay in that division to go down

401
00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:59,440
Speaker 1: to Tampa. And Okay, this one might be just me

402
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 1: and my own personal asking here, because with Tom Brady,

403
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:05,680
Speaker 1: I've really been back and forth and saying he's a

404
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 1: streaming option. He's not a start every week, but he's

405
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:10,879
Speaker 1: been balling out the last couple of weeks. I mean,

406
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 1: there's really no way around in three d and sixty

407
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,639
Speaker 1: nine passing yards four passing touchdowns. Also had a rushing

408
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:19,600
Speaker 1: touchdown in that game against the Raiders on Sunday. So

409
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,639
Speaker 1: I mean, I think you're you're already on the bandwagon.

410
00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:26,200
Speaker 1: I guess the question is, should I now finally just

411
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,639
Speaker 1: buy a ticket and grab a seat and fully fully

412
00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,639
Speaker 1: uh embraced being on the Tom Brady bandwagon? Home on board?

413
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,119
Speaker 1: Come on, here's no longer Patriots, so so we can

414
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:37,880
Speaker 1: all root for him because we all get the Patriots.

415
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:40,639
Speaker 1: I mean, I feel like I am back on the

416
00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,359
Speaker 1: Tom Brady bandwagon, and very much like you. I just

417
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,680
Speaker 1: continued to tell people, Oh, he's a streaming option dependent

418
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 1: on the matchup, and I still think, yes, that's the case,

419
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 1: because the Raiders wasn't a crazy defense that he had

420
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 1: to face, because it's it's Tom Brady, and Tom Brady

421
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 1: is fully on a revenge tour of being like I

422
00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 1: am the goat, I'm the only goat and the world.

423
00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 1: I m TV twelve, and I Am going to continue

424
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 1: to be fantastic. And I think this is like really

425
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:06,960
Speaker 1: where he finds his stride in the middle of the season.

426
00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:08,840
Speaker 1: I think one of the things that was really fun

427
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 1: to watch Tom Brady yesterday is that he spread the

428
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 1: wealth of the ball. He got a touchdown to Gronk

429
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 1: as bestie, he got one to Scottie Miller and Chris

430
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:19,880
Speaker 1: Godwin and Tyler Johnson. So I think he should absolutely

431
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,399
Speaker 1: be started next week going up against the Giants on

432
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:25,120
Speaker 1: Monday Night Football, and then he could be a streamer

433
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 1: in week nine as he faces Drew Brees and the

434
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:31,160
Speaker 1: Saints for matchup number two of the season. But remember

435
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,440
Speaker 1: in week one when he did see Tom or excuse me,

436
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 1: when he saw Drew Brees before he put up twenty

437
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:38,399
Speaker 1: fantasy points. So you have to be mindful of that

438
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:43,200
Speaker 1: and realized Tom Brady maybe a must start. He is

439
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,680
Speaker 1: heading towards must start, and you're just throwing the fact

440
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:48,639
Speaker 1: that you're probably going to have Antonio Brown on the

441
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,520
Speaker 1: field very soon, so that gives them one more weapon

442
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 1: to work with on top of Godwin and Evans and

443
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,040
Speaker 1: Gronk and Miller and you know the running backs that

444
00:19:57,119 --> 00:19:58,920
Speaker 1: catch the ball out of the backfield as well. So

445
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 1: you were talking about Tom Brady being in what is

446
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:05,159
Speaker 1: a going to be a fully loaded offense. So I

447
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 1: think I'm gonna have to, you know, I'm gonna have

448
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:08,680
Speaker 1: to shake myself a little bit and say that he's

449
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:10,760
Speaker 1: more than a streaming option and he is a guy.

450
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 1: Uh that look I had him at the start of

451
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 1: the year. Is I think QB eleven or twelve? Uh,

452
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,040
Speaker 1: you know who else? He could very well be squarely

453
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:21,240
Speaker 1: smack dab in the top ten before the year is

454
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:23,359
Speaker 1: over if he keeps playing the way he's been playing

455
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:25,960
Speaker 1: for the last couple of weeks. Alright, one last one,

456
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,680
Speaker 1: and I feel like the Antonio Gibson hypes sort of

457
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 1: Ebbden flowed right. It was. It was high tide when

458
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:34,360
Speaker 1: we got to late August early September, when it looked

459
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,639
Speaker 1: like he was gonna be the lead back early in

460
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,240
Speaker 1: the season, it wasn't so great because he just wasn't

461
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:41,080
Speaker 1: getting the ball a lot. Then it kind of swelled

462
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,639
Speaker 1: again in it's receded. Uh then on Sunday over a

463
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:50,359
Speaker 1: hundred yards as Washington just dismantled a a hapless Cowboys team. Uh.

464
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,440
Speaker 1: And so now another big game hundred and twenty yards

465
00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 1: and a touchdown for Antonio Gibson. Is it back? Too

466
00:20:56,200 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 1: high tide? Again with the Gibson wave, I think so again,

467
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 1: it's so funny. It's like an ebbs and flows, ebbs

468
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,760
Speaker 1: and flows, and it's hard to completely pinpoint what you

469
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:08,040
Speaker 1: want to do with Antonio Gibson. But you also have

470
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 1: to look at all the injuries we've seen this season,

471
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 1: especially at the running back position. If you have Antonio Gibson,

472
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:16,040
Speaker 1: you hold onto him and you should absolutely start him again,

473
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:19,439
Speaker 1: looking and being mindful of the matchup. Now, yesterday's matchup

474
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:21,440
Speaker 1: against the Cowboys, it was a good one and we

475
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:24,320
Speaker 1: saw Antonio Gibson fully step up and thrive in that

476
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 1: workhorse role against the Cowboys. Now, he did only have

477
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 1: one target in the passing game, which kind of does

478
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 1: make sense because the Washington football team played from ahead

479
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:35,879
Speaker 1: for most of the game and they were really happy

480
00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:38,640
Speaker 1: with running the ball on the ground. So I would

481
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:41,600
Speaker 1: go ahead and expect similar production from Gibson and Week

482
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 1: nine against the Giants. But first up, it's a bye

483
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:46,879
Speaker 1: week for Washington, so make sure you're mindful of that

484
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,680
Speaker 1: and you don't have Antonio Gibson in your lineup this week.

485
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 1: But then once we had to week nine against the Giants,

486
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 1: he should be started. So yes, back on the hype

487
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 1: train for him. Yeah. In fact, I think the next

488
00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:59,760
Speaker 1: four games are actually pretty favorable for Gibson. You mentioned

489
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:01,560
Speaker 1: the Giants, and they got the Lions, they got the

490
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,520
Speaker 1: Bengals who have been okay against the run, and then

491
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:06,680
Speaker 1: it's the Cowboys again. So there's four weeks in a

492
00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:09,840
Speaker 1: row where you can see really good production from Antonio Gibson.

493
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:12,200
Speaker 1: It was weird a little bit, I guess that he

494
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:14,159
Speaker 1: only got the one target, but you mentioned game script

495
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:16,440
Speaker 1: sort of factored into that way. They didn't really need

496
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:18,440
Speaker 1: to throw the football to him a whole lot, but

497
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:20,160
Speaker 1: we know that he can do that. We know that's

498
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:22,080
Speaker 1: part of his game. And so we are starting to

499
00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:24,680
Speaker 1: see the dividends for Antonio Gibson that we hoped would

500
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 1: come when we found out that he was going to

501
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:29,840
Speaker 1: become the lead running back there for the Washington football team.

502
00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:32,359
Speaker 1: You want to vote on which of these guys you

503
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 1: should be most on the bandwagon with the guy that

504
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 1: is most likely to sort of continue this run of play.

505
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:39,920
Speaker 1: You can go to Kimmy's Twitter page at Kimmy Checks

506
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,680
Speaker 1: and vote for the poll right there. Make your thoughts

507
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 1: be known. I mean, it is a time for voting.

508
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,639
Speaker 1: There's certainly more important things to vote on, but if

509
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,360
Speaker 1: you get a little time, vote for this thing as well.

510
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:54,560
Speaker 1: All Right, that was performance ready presented by castrol Edge.

511
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:56,800
Speaker 1: All Right, it's time to look at who should be

512
00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:00,359
Speaker 1: on your waiver wire wish list cutting into week ain't

513
00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:03,480
Speaker 1: a lot of things that's certainly coming together. Guys coming

514
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 1: back from injuries, other guys being lost to injury, and

515
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:08,480
Speaker 1: guys just not performing well. Same as it sort of

516
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:11,480
Speaker 1: ever was go at the quarterback position. Teddy Bridgewater, who

517
00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,960
Speaker 1: continues to be a streaming option, who has another outstanding

518
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,960
Speaker 1: matchup coming this week against the Atlanta Falcon, so he

519
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:19,680
Speaker 1: should probably be top of mine if you need a

520
00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:22,920
Speaker 1: quarterback for Week eight. A couple of running back options

521
00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:27,399
Speaker 1: Chase Edmonds. We saw Kenyan Drake suffer an ankle injury

522
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 1: on Sunday night. Now the early reports are that everything

523
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 1: was negative on X ray. Uh is scheduled to have

524
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:34,760
Speaker 1: an m r I on Monday, so something to keep

525
00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:36,240
Speaker 1: an eye on. But on top of it, Edmunds is

526
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 1: probably just outplayed Drink for most of the year. Ja

527
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,439
Speaker 1: Michael Hasty another name to keep in mind. Jeff Wilson

528
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:44,439
Speaker 1: had a huge day for the forty Niners, but then

529
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 1: he suffered what's being called a high ankle sprain and

530
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,600
Speaker 1: is likely to miss some time there, so Hasty might

531
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,639
Speaker 1: get some more opportunity, especially because Jerick McKinnon barely played

532
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:56,760
Speaker 1: wide receivers Nelson Aghaloor, Brandon, I you, Shard Higgins obviously,

533
00:23:56,880 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 1: with Odell Beckham Jr. Out for the rest of the year,

534
00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:01,879
Speaker 1: Scottie Miller still getting looks down there in Tampa, and

535
00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:04,480
Speaker 1: then at the Titan spot Harrison Bryan's name to remember

536
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: after a couple of touchdowns on Sunday for the Browns. Uh,

537
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 1: let's start with Chase Edmunds there because we mentioned the

538
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:14,479
Speaker 1: injury to Kenyan Drake. But Kimmy, it's just I think

539
00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:16,919
Speaker 1: it's just hard to argue Chase Edmunds has just played

540
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,880
Speaker 1: better even when Drake has been healthy this year. He has,

541
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 1: and that's why I'm so confused and wondering why he's

542
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 1: still why he's only rostered. Excuse me and of NFL

543
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 1: dot com leagues. If you listen to Marcus or myself

544
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,280
Speaker 1: or Florio or Rank all season long, his name has

545
00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 1: been on the waiver wire I think every single week

546
00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:38,159
Speaker 1: since Week one or week two, because you're right, he

547
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 1: has outplayed Kenyan Drake every single week and he continues

548
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,479
Speaker 1: to do so. He watched five times for fifty eight

549
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,320
Speaker 1: yards and called all seven of his targets for eighty

550
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 1: seven yards, finishing with twenty one point five fantasy points

551
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:53,919
Speaker 1: against the Seahawks. Now, if you do pick up Edmunds,

552
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,800
Speaker 1: be careful because they are on a bye this week,

553
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,920
Speaker 1: but once they return, they go to play the Miami Dolphins,

554
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 1: and then the Buffalo Bills and then the Seahawks. Yet again,

555
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 1: I think Chase Edmonds is my number one priority on

556
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:08,600
Speaker 1: the waiver wire this week, and he is going to

557
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:11,680
Speaker 1: continue to be until everyone fully gets on board and

558
00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:15,760
Speaker 1: realizes this guy is a dynamic threat on the football field,

559
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,359
Speaker 1: not only because he runs, but he's also involved in

560
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,520
Speaker 1: the passing game. We saw how well Kyler Murray and

561
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,359
Speaker 1: him both played last night. So get him into your

562
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:28,000
Speaker 1: lineup and stopped sleeping on Chase Edmunds. I mean maybe

563
00:25:28,040 --> 00:25:30,680
Speaker 1: the biggest numbers, these seven catches for eighties seven yards.

564
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 1: I mean just doing damage in the passing game. And

565
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,239
Speaker 1: you know he's sort of doing what Kenyan Drake did

566
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:38,440
Speaker 1: last year, and he just doesn't get the number of

567
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 1: snaps or touches that we saw from Drake late last season,

568
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 1: and maybe maybe this conversation is less for the fantasy

569
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:48,600
Speaker 1: managers out there and more for Cliff Kingsbury, like why

570
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 1: why are you still rolling with Kenyan Drake as your

571
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:54,200
Speaker 1: lead running back here when Edmunds has certainly shown that

572
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:58,120
Speaker 1: he's deserving a more opportunities. And look, you're you're right there.

573
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:00,159
Speaker 1: There is a buy coming up this week for Arizona US.

574
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,240
Speaker 1: That's something to keep in mind. But if you have

575
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 1: the opportunity to stash him, if you just need running

576
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:08,359
Speaker 1: back help for the future and you have somewhere somebody

577
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 1: on your roster that you can drop, Chase Edmunds should

578
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,680
Speaker 1: be very high on your priority list uh this week

579
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:15,560
Speaker 1: to add, because he's the guy who I think is

580
00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:19,119
Speaker 1: gonna be, uh the closer to the workhorse in Arizona

581
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,800
Speaker 1: moving forward. Another name to mention Brandon Aiyuk, who the

582
00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 1: rookie from Arizona State, has has played really well I

583
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 1: think for the forty Niners this year. Part of it,

584
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,960
Speaker 1: though Deebo Samuel suffered a hamstring injury late in the

585
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:35,000
Speaker 1: wind over the Patriots, and I know Kimmy He's not

586
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:38,119
Speaker 1: necessarily a household name yet, but I think again, if

587
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,160
Speaker 1: you're looking ahead and you're looking to stash a guy

588
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:41,879
Speaker 1: that has some upside late in the season, it seems

589
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 1: like Brandon Aiyuk is a guy that you might want

590
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,320
Speaker 1: to keep an eye on. Right And also just think

591
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 1: about the big name, notable injuries that we had yesterday

592
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 1: at the wide receiver position, like Odell Beckham Jr. I'm

593
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:55,440
Speaker 1: not saying that Brandon Aiyuk is going to completely step

594
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:57,520
Speaker 1: up and fill that role, but if you need help

595
00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:59,760
Speaker 1: with the wide receiver position, you have to look at

596
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:03,000
Speaker 1: this guy. He's only rostered and ten of NFL dot

597
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:05,640
Speaker 1: Com leagues, even though he led the team and targets

598
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 1: and receptions yesterday in that huge win over the New

599
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:12,960
Speaker 1: England Patriots. Now with a hundred and fifteen receiving yards

600
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:16,240
Speaker 1: against a usually tough Patriots secondary, even though that was

601
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 1: a really tough game for them. I think Brandon Aiyuk

602
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,560
Speaker 1: has proved his work and that forty Niner offense, and

603
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:25,520
Speaker 1: he must be utilized next week, especially against the Seahawks

604
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,200
Speaker 1: and what we know for sure will be a Russell

605
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 1: Wilson chewed out. We saw how world Russell Wilson played

606
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:33,680
Speaker 1: yesterday that means of forty Niners are going to have

607
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:35,960
Speaker 1: to try to keep up with that and throw the ball,

608
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,440
Speaker 1: and I could see Brandon I being on the receiving

609
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:41,640
Speaker 1: end of that. Absolutely. When you talk about the Seahawks

610
00:27:41,680 --> 00:27:43,800
Speaker 1: matchup being the next one on the docket there for

611
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 1: the forty Niners, that I think makes it even more imperative.

612
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:48,719
Speaker 1: You go out and you try to add Brandon Ayuk

613
00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:52,360
Speaker 1: this week. I have been impressed with one the way

614
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:56,240
Speaker 1: he plays, but more than that, with how Kyle Shanahan

615
00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,200
Speaker 1: wants to get him the football. And you see here

616
00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:00,199
Speaker 1: they're using him down field as a threat. And if

617
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 1: if Jimmy Garoppolo makes a better throw on that long ball,

618
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:06,600
Speaker 1: then I probably scored a touchdown there. But they're still

619
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:08,639
Speaker 1: trying to get him the ball. Early on, they were

620
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:10,760
Speaker 1: using him on jet sweeps and as a runner, so

621
00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:12,920
Speaker 1: they want to get the ball in his hands. There

622
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 1: is a reason that the forty Niners traded up to

623
00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:17,440
Speaker 1: get Brandon I. You they want to use him, and

624
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:20,120
Speaker 1: I think especially if Deebo Samuel has to miss time,

625
00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:23,040
Speaker 1: which is certainly very possible, then I think I U

626
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:25,040
Speaker 1: is gonna get a whole lot more work in. George

627
00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 1: Kittle's gonna get his You don't have to worry about that.

628
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,320
Speaker 1: But I think I k as a guy that that

629
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,639
Speaker 1: is going to be out there. You mentioned Chase Edmonds

630
00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,000
Speaker 1: probably is your top priority. I think that's gonna be

631
00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,679
Speaker 1: the case. I would say Richard Higgins is gonna get

632
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:40,360
Speaker 1: some looks. I'd like to try to figure out what's

633
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 1: going on with that forty Niners backfield with Jamichael Hasty

634
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 1: and Jerk McKinnon and who knows most is gonna be

635
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 1: back soon, and Tevin Coleman, and I think Roger Craig

636
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:49,800
Speaker 1: and Tom Rathman, and you can keep going back and

637
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:52,000
Speaker 1: back and back to however many running backs you want

638
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,560
Speaker 1: to find there in San Francisco. But I think it's

639
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:56,600
Speaker 1: probably worth your while to try to pick a guy

640
00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:58,920
Speaker 1: that you think he's gonna get some touches, because you know,

641
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,320
Speaker 1: you just really never know they're anybody else that didn't

642
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:05,040
Speaker 1: make the list that you think might be worthwhile picking

643
00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:08,360
Speaker 1: up this week. No, so he made the list, but

644
00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:10,440
Speaker 1: I just I just want to double down you guys.

645
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 1: Teddy Bridgewater has been fantastic, and I know we talked

646
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 1: about him last week, and he was on your list

647
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:18,000
Speaker 1: this week. You know before I was hyping up Andy

648
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 1: Dalton Moore's I'm gonna go grab Andy Dalton on the

649
00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,360
Speaker 1: waiver wire, and I think he could be a top

650
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 1: fifteen fantasy quarterback just because of that offense and how

651
00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 1: bad the defense is so they have to throw the ball. No,

652
00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 1: take that away. Done with Andy Dalton, clearly, I want

653
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,480
Speaker 1: to focus on Teddy Bridgewater if you need another streaming

654
00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 1: option at quarterback. Like Marcus said, Teddy two Gloves is

655
00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,040
Speaker 1: going up against the Atlanta Falcons this week. He should

656
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,320
Speaker 1: be a must start. He's playing really well. We were

657
00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 1: talking about DJ Moore and Robbie Anderson and the way

658
00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 1: he's feeding his receivers. So Teddy two Gloves, if you

659
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 1: need a quarterback, grab them. Yeah, absolutely, especially because like

660
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:54,440
Speaker 1: Kyler Murray for INDs, this is one of the guys

661
00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:56,400
Speaker 1: who's gonna be off this week. So if you've got Kyler,

662
00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:58,840
Speaker 1: you're going to need a quarterback uh in Week eight.

663
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 1: So Teddy is certainly out there and a solid option

664
00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 1: for you. Yeah. I mean just go out and stream them.

665
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 1: It's it's just that easy. So there's a chance that

676
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:35,840
Speaker 1: it's spend the wheel of running backs. Time we do this.

677
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:38,720
Speaker 1: It seems like every few weeks we start to reevaluate

678
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,400
Speaker 1: some of these running back committees and figure out which

679
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 1: is the guy that you would be best off with.

680
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:45,680
Speaker 1: Chances are you may or may not have him on

681
00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:47,360
Speaker 1: your roster. Maybe you try to make a trade form,

682
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:50,080
Speaker 1: or maybe if you just are of the daily fantasy persuasion,

683
00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 1: which of the two you would like to sort of

684
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 1: rock with on any given weeks. So we will start

685
00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 1: Gimmy with your beloved Kansas City Chiefs. Everything seemed to

686
00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 1: be going swimmingly with Clyde Edward de Laire and then

687
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 1: they go and sign Levy on Bell, who did get

688
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:05,800
Speaker 1: on the field, got a couple of touches, broke off

689
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:08,800
Speaker 1: of a fifteen yard run last week as well for

690
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:12,520
Speaker 1: the Chiefs. So we know they've got two quality running

691
00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:15,400
Speaker 1: backs on this roster. But between love Bell and the

692
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:18,080
Speaker 1: rookie c H, which one would you prefer to have

693
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:20,840
Speaker 1: on your fantasy roster. I'm sticking. I'm sticking with the

694
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 1: O G and the O G in this scenario, it's

695
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:27,040
Speaker 1: clad Edwards Laire, you guys. He came off of his

696
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:30,800
Speaker 1: season high performance in Week six against the Buffalo Bills

697
00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:33,080
Speaker 1: and then he tweeted out and it was so funny

698
00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,200
Speaker 1: after that game and this is right, you know, before

699
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 1: the news of our after the news of Levy on

700
00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:40,960
Speaker 1: Bell broke, he said, my production is silent, just like

701
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,640
Speaker 1: the H in my name. And he understands that there's

702
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:46,360
Speaker 1: this whole running back controversy of is it him or

703
00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:48,719
Speaker 1: is it Levy on Bell? You guys, it is absolutely

704
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 1: Clyde Edwards Laire. There's no shade against Levy on Bell.

705
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,160
Speaker 1: I'm happy that he's joining my team. I think it's

706
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 1: gonna lead us to yet another Super Bowl win. But

707
00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,160
Speaker 1: if you have to look at this and fantasy football

708
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:01,680
Speaker 1: terms it with Clyde Edwards A laire, He's had a

709
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,600
Speaker 1: hundred and thirty plus crimine yards and three of of

710
00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:08,600
Speaker 1: seven games this season. So Clyde Edwards Laire He's going

711
00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 1: to continue to be that number one back to start them.

712
00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:14,640
Speaker 1: I'm gonna rock with c. E. H as well. By

713
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:17,000
Speaker 1: the way, every time I hear that tweet or hear

714
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:19,440
Speaker 1: that comment from from Edwards Delaier, I just think of

715
00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,880
Speaker 1: the uh classic little Wayne line, real ges moving silence

716
00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 1: like Lasagna. But I I feel like, I feel like c.

717
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,040
Speaker 1: H is that guy that they want to give the

718
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 1: majority of the work too. And they're certainly gonna use

719
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 1: Levian Bell and I think he's gonna have some good games.

720
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:35,239
Speaker 1: And here's the thing. If you've got left Bell, if

721
00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:37,160
Speaker 1: you drafted him or traded for him or what have,

722
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:39,040
Speaker 1: you hold on to him because he's still going to

723
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 1: get production. He's going to get opportunity. This This isn't

724
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:44,200
Speaker 1: to say that suddenly he's gonna become just some dud

725
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:46,120
Speaker 1: that that's gonna be, you know, a dead weight on

726
00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:47,760
Speaker 1: your roster. Like I don't think that's gonna be the

727
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:50,080
Speaker 1: case at all. But I do think Edwards Hilaire is

728
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 1: still the guy they want as the primary back. They

729
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:54,880
Speaker 1: will use Bell as a way to kind of compliment

730
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:56,320
Speaker 1: him a little bit, and I just think that the

731
00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:59,120
Speaker 1: way Edward Delayer runs and his style is sort of

732
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:02,040
Speaker 1: more conducive to working with Patrick Mahomes in that backfield.

733
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 1: So I'm with you, Uh, He's the guy that I

734
00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:05,480
Speaker 1: would I would rather have there if I had to

735
00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:09,000
Speaker 1: pick between the two chiefs. All right, in Tampa, it's

736
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 1: getting messy again because when Leonard Fournette was hurt, it

737
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:16,200
Speaker 1: was clearly Ronald Jones backfield, and he had three games

738
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:18,480
Speaker 1: where he had more than a hundred yards rushing and

739
00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 1: it seemed like he was just taking over that job.

740
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:23,000
Speaker 1: Then for Nett comes back and it goes back to

741
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:26,080
Speaker 1: being split again. In fact four, Nett got more touches

742
00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:29,040
Speaker 1: in the game than Rod Joe did. Jones ended up

743
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:31,280
Speaker 1: having a touchdown, which gave him a pretty decent fantasy

744
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:34,040
Speaker 1: day against the Raiders. So now what are we doing?

745
00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:36,120
Speaker 1: Are we going for Nett? Are we going Rojoe? Here?

746
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:39,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna stick with Rojo because you mentioned

747
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,200
Speaker 1: Leonard for net and the fact that he deals with injury.

748
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:42,920
Speaker 1: I don't know if I trust him to be a

749
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,280
Speaker 1: hundred percent healthy for the rest of the season, and

750
00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:47,600
Speaker 1: if that is the case, And if that is the scenario,

751
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,040
Speaker 1: then again it goes back to it being a Ronald

752
00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 1: Jones backfield. Now. I think I literally had an audible

753
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:56,320
Speaker 1: gasp when Leonard Fournette joined the Bucks because I just

754
00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 1: drafted Rojo and I was like, oh no, my season's over.

755
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,560
Speaker 1: But Ronald Jones has still continued to be productive. I

756
00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,360
Speaker 1: understand that now it's probably going to be closer to

757
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:08,839
Speaker 1: a fifty fifty sixty split, so we can't go out

758
00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:11,440
Speaker 1: and expect huge, huge things from either of these guys.

759
00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:14,520
Speaker 1: But Ronald Jones is also way more consistent on getting

760
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:16,839
Speaker 1: into the end zone, which as a fantasy manager, that's

761
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:18,880
Speaker 1: what you want. You want that plus six. So I'm

762
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:22,320
Speaker 1: gonna rock and stay with Rojo on this one. I

763
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:24,840
Speaker 1: am too. Part of it is I think all the

764
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:26,960
Speaker 1: things you said, like the touchdown upside. Part of it,

765
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 1: I will admit is my own stubbornness for having gotten

766
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,319
Speaker 1: on the road Joe hype train and just not wanting

767
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:34,759
Speaker 1: to get off of it. I still think he's gonna

768
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:38,600
Speaker 1: be very productive. I just it's it's frustrating on the

769
00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:40,120
Speaker 1: one hand that a guy could play as well as

770
00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:42,239
Speaker 1: he did the last few weeks and then suddenly, you know,

771
00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 1: Litterard for Nette comes back and immediately just chops into it.

772
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:47,960
Speaker 1: But I sort of understand what Bruce arians is doing,

773
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:50,040
Speaker 1: right because for Nett has given him some good production

774
00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:52,440
Speaker 1: when he's gotten the football as well. I just think

775
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,920
Speaker 1: it's going to be sort of inconsistent with who we

776
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:56,640
Speaker 1: can count on. So I'm gonna stay with the guy

777
00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:59,400
Speaker 1: who has been in the system, who knows the system,

778
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:02,440
Speaker 1: and who has played well when given the opportunity, and

779
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:06,000
Speaker 1: for me, that's Ronald Jones. So uh, I mean, Bruce,

780
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:08,320
Speaker 1: just throw us a bone, man, like, let us just

781
00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:10,480
Speaker 1: have one guy, let us know who it is, like

782
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:12,920
Speaker 1: that would be appreciated. But I know that that's not

783
00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:15,920
Speaker 1: going to happen, all right, the last one here, and

784
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:18,400
Speaker 1: we sort of hinted at it in the last segment

785
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:22,160
Speaker 1: the forty Niners. Are you talk about an embarrassment of

786
00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:25,680
Speaker 1: riches in Kyle Shanahan's run game. Let's just start with

787
00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:28,400
Speaker 1: the fact that where he mostart is going to be

788
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:31,120
Speaker 1: the RB one here when he's healthy. When he's back,

789
00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:34,880
Speaker 1: he's the lead running back. The question though, becomes behind

790
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,040
Speaker 1: him because you know guys will still get touches. So

791
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,680
Speaker 1: right now, Jeff Wilson went went out of the game

792
00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:42,960
Speaker 1: on Sunday with what it was being called a high

793
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:45,520
Speaker 1: ankle sprain. We don't know what his you know, short

794
00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:48,360
Speaker 1: term prognosis is going to be. So let's say between

795
00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:51,239
Speaker 1: Jamichael Hasty, who ran the ball pretty well, and Jerick

796
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 1: McKinnon who we thought was going to get touches but didn't.

797
00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:56,880
Speaker 1: If we have to pick one of them going forward,

798
00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:59,719
Speaker 1: who is it going to be? I think I want

799
00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:01,520
Speaker 1: to go with Hasty on this one just because I

800
00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 1: feel like there's way more consistency. I think McKinnon is

801
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:07,279
Speaker 1: going to have opportunities and he's gonna get touches as well.

802
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:10,000
Speaker 1: But you want consistency and fantasy football. So if I

803
00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:12,800
Speaker 1: had to choose between the two, I'm gonna rock with Hasty.

804
00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:14,680
Speaker 1: But Marcus, I know that this is your team. You're

805
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:16,960
Speaker 1: a San Francisco forty nine or fan, so what are

806
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:19,920
Speaker 1: you doing in this scenario? I think I'm going Hasty

807
00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:23,200
Speaker 1: as well, because I think yesterday was sort of telling

808
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:26,200
Speaker 1: right where we thought McKinnon was going to at least

809
00:36:26,200 --> 00:36:28,880
Speaker 1: split snaps, right. I mean, I could see, I understood

810
00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:32,000
Speaker 1: Wilson getting the ball, and I figured Hasty was gonna

811
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:34,800
Speaker 1: maybe get some opportunities as well. But I really was

812
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:38,000
Speaker 1: shocked that we didn't see much of Jerick McKinnon in

813
00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:40,680
Speaker 1: the game at all. And trust me, from the responses

814
00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:42,960
Speaker 1: I got in my mentions when I tweeted out a

815
00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:46,720
Speaker 1: sad Pablo Escobar gift, a lot of people were expecting

816
00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:49,400
Speaker 1: big things from Jerick McKinnon and and they didn't get it.

817
00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:51,759
Speaker 1: And that to me says a lot that they went

818
00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:54,399
Speaker 1: heavily with Wilson and then they went to Hasty right

819
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 1: after Wilson went down late in that game. So uh,

820
00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 1: that makes it really hard for me to trust Eric McKinnon. Now,

821
00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:03,520
Speaker 1: the caveat to all of this is that in a

822
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,080
Speaker 1: couple of weeks, Tevin Coleman is going to be back,

823
00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:08,719
Speaker 1: and he could completely throw a wrench in this whole thing.

824
00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:11,080
Speaker 1: Although I will say that of all of the backs

825
00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:14,160
Speaker 1: in the Niner backfield, Coleman seems to be the least productive,

826
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:16,359
Speaker 1: but he also seems to be the one that Kyle

827
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:19,760
Speaker 1: Shanahan keeps going back to over and over again inexplicably.

828
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:22,960
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna say hasty, but I'm gonna put a

829
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:26,080
Speaker 1: big fat asterisk next to it and understand that that

830
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:29,120
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan could pull from Shanahan Aggans on us and

831
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:33,399
Speaker 1: go with Tevin Coleman and pretty completely wreck everybody's week. Um,

832
00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:36,160
Speaker 1: but whatever, again, I go back to what I said

833
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:38,160
Speaker 1: at the beginning of this conversation that where he mosted

834
00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:40,359
Speaker 1: is going to be the number one back whenever he's

835
00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:42,400
Speaker 1: back and healthy again, and everybody else is sort of

836
00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:45,480
Speaker 1: fighting for what's left over there. Uh, And so you know,

837
00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:47,640
Speaker 1: God speed to you trying to pick that forty Niner

838
00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:50,520
Speaker 1: running back that is going to be uh the secondary

839
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:54,240
Speaker 1: option there. Hey, you know last election, millions of voters

840
00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:57,640

844
00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:08,680
Speaker 1: one coming up on Monday Night Football. It is the

845
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:12,520
Speaker 1: Rams and the Bears from so Far Stadium, and uh,

846
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:14,600
Speaker 1: you know a couple of teams that defensively are pretty

847
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:18,520
Speaker 1: good offensively, have their flashes, but also have some flaws

848
00:38:18,680 --> 00:38:21,600
Speaker 1: as well. So, but a lot of fantasy relevant options

849
00:38:21,640 --> 00:38:23,400
Speaker 1: in this game, and so as any mentioned at the

850
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:25,000
Speaker 1: top of the show, sure there's gonna be a lot

851
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:27,560
Speaker 1: of people with some interest in this one to close

852
00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:30,239
Speaker 1: out Week seven in their fantasy leagues. So let's start

853
00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:32,640
Speaker 1: in the backfield. We talked about these running back rotations.

854
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:35,520
Speaker 1: The Rams running back rotation may be as confusing as

855
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:38,440
Speaker 1: any of them. With your Cam Akers there, Darryl Henderson,

856
00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:40,879
Speaker 1: Malcolm Brown back there. But if you had to pick

857
00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:43,359
Speaker 1: a Rams running back, who's it going to be, It's

858
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:46,040
Speaker 1: gonna be Darrell Henderson now, and I understand that he

859
00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:49,640
Speaker 1: has not played more than of the offensive snaps because

860
00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:52,120
Speaker 1: of those other guys you just mentioned and Malcolm Brown

861
00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:56,399
Speaker 1: and Cam Akers. However, Darrell Henderson is to lead back,

862
00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:59,320
Speaker 1: even though it could be confusing to understand because of

863
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:02,280
Speaker 1: all those other players, But he is the starting running

864
00:39:02,360 --> 00:39:04,440
Speaker 1: back after he put together a strong start to the

865
00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:07,960
Speaker 1: season four hundred and forty four yards from scrimmage and

866
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:12,680
Speaker 1: four touchdowns in six games. Because of those reasons, I'm

867
00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:15,600
Speaker 1: gonna rock with Henderson on this one. Even though Malcolm

868
00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:17,840
Speaker 1: Brown and cam Acres or I'm sure going to have

869
00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:20,359
Speaker 1: big breakout games and then Henderson will have no work.

870
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:24,080
Speaker 1: But for now it's Henderson. I'm going with Darrell Henderson

871
00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:25,880
Speaker 1: as well. This is also part of me maybe being

872
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:27,919
Speaker 1: a little bit stubborn here because he was the Rams

873
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,080
Speaker 1: running back I sort of pegged at the start of

874
00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,320
Speaker 1: the year. He's been sort of hard to figure in

875
00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:34,360
Speaker 1: some respects because it feels like when he's had a

876
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:36,879
Speaker 1: good matchup, they haven't given him the ball. When he's

877
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:39,080
Speaker 1: had a bad matchup and people are sort of fading him,

878
00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:40,400
Speaker 1: that's when they give him the ball a lot and

879
00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 1: he goes out and performs well. So it has been

880
00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:44,880
Speaker 1: a little bit up and down with him, but I

881
00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:46,719
Speaker 1: do think this is a situation where he's going to

882
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:49,640
Speaker 1: get a lot of work there and the Bears the

883
00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:51,640
Speaker 1: defense is very good, but if there's a place they

884
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:54,319
Speaker 1: can sort of be had, it is against the run game.

885
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:56,480
Speaker 1: That's the thing that Adam Brank has pointed out repeatedly

886
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,000
Speaker 1: this season. So if I gotta pick one, I'm gonna

887
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:01,319
Speaker 1: go Darrell Henderson, which totally means this is the cam

888
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:04,960
Speaker 1: Akers game, because that's just how things go okay over

889
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,960
Speaker 1: to the Rams wide receivers. Choose your fighter. You're going

890
00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,640
Speaker 1: Robert Woods or Cooper Cup. Okay, I know we just

891
00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:13,759
Speaker 1: said that the Bears aren't great against the run, but

892
00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:16,439
Speaker 1: they are really good against the passing game. They ranked

893
00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:19,839
Speaker 1: third against whiteout, So regardless, it's gonna be a tough

894
00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:22,560
Speaker 1: one for both Cooper Cup and Bobby Trees. If I

895
00:40:22,600 --> 00:40:24,760
Speaker 1: had to pick one fighter to knock him out tonight,

896
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,440
Speaker 1: I'm rocking with Bobby Trees because he's had a receiving

897
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:30,080
Speaker 1: touchdown and two games straight and he's been the one

898
00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:32,200
Speaker 1: who has been able to put up a fourteen plus

899
00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:36,520
Speaker 1: Fantasy ports on four different occasions, while Cooper Cup he's

900
00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:38,480
Speaker 1: only been able to do that twice. And this really

901
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:41,440
Speaker 1: hasn't been a Cooper Cup season. He's been dropping passes

902
00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:44,440
Speaker 1: in the end zone, which makes fantasy managers to scream

903
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 1: and not like him so much. So if I had

904
00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:48,840
Speaker 1: a rock with one tonight, it's gonna be Robert Woods.

905
00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:51,000
Speaker 1: I'm going Robert Woods as well. And for some of

906
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:52,800
Speaker 1: the reasons you're seeing on the video there, they like

907
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:55,200
Speaker 1: to get him the football on those sweeps, get the

908
00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:57,000
Speaker 1: ball in his hands as a runner, and it just

909
00:40:57,080 --> 00:41:00,280
Speaker 1: seems like he's been more versatile in the Rams asking

910
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:02,080
Speaker 1: game than Cooper Cup. I mean, I think there were

911
00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:04,879
Speaker 1: a lot of people concerned that some regression was coming

912
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:06,120
Speaker 1: for a Cup, and I think we have seen it

913
00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:09,120
Speaker 1: a little bit. The other thing about the Rams passing,

914
00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:11,160
Speaker 1: and it just worries me in general, is that it's

915
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:13,319
Speaker 1: a lot of short throws. They have struggled to get

916
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 1: the ball down field, so it does force guys to

917
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:18,480
Speaker 1: be good with the ball in their hands after the catch.

918
00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:21,440
Speaker 1: I think Woods is slightly better at that than Cup is,

919
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:23,680
Speaker 1: So I'm agreeing with you. He's the guy that I

920
00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:26,920
Speaker 1: would probably pick in this one. All right, let's kind

921
00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:29,600
Speaker 1: of go between the teams here the tight end position,

922
00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:31,600
Speaker 1: which has been so hard to figure out this year.

923
00:41:31,719 --> 00:41:35,800
Speaker 1: Choose your fighter, Tyler Higbee or Jimmy Graham. Jimmy Graham

924
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:38,560
Speaker 1: all the way. I have Tyler Higbie in a fantasy

925
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:40,840
Speaker 1: league of mine, and he's put up like three points

926
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:43,040
Speaker 1: every single week. So I love you, but I'm done

927
00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 1: with you. I'm focusing on Jimmy Graham because look at

928
00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:49,040
Speaker 1: all the opportunities that he gets inside of the red zone.

929
00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:52,640
Speaker 1: He consistently sees red zone targets and he's able to score. Now.

930
00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:54,719
Speaker 1: I know last week Cole climatt he was a guy

931
00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:57,520
Speaker 1: who was able to score in the end zone. But regardless,

932
00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:00,840
Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham is the tight end number one option for

933
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:03,600
Speaker 1: the Chicago Bears. I think he's gonna be targeted heavily

934
00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:06,520
Speaker 1: tonight by Nick Foles and try to bring home that

935
00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:10,160
Speaker 1: w For our producer Hypham in his Chicago Bears, I

936
00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:12,760
Speaker 1: think Graham's gonna see a lot of targets, especially because

937
00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:14,960
Speaker 1: the Rams are gonna do their best to try to

938
00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:17,799
Speaker 1: lock down on Alan Robinson. I'm still starting a rob

939
00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:20,279
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter, um, but I do think that's gonna

940
00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:22,760
Speaker 1: open some things up for Graham. Higbee has been crazy

941
00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:25,239
Speaker 1: and consistent this year. We're always going to have some

942
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:28,200
Speaker 1: Gerald Everett targets and some Gerald ever games in there. Plus,

943
00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:31,360
Speaker 1: the Rams have been so run heavy this season, and

944
00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:33,160
Speaker 1: if they feel like they can run the ball on

945
00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:35,560
Speaker 1: the Bears, that means that they are less likely to

946
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,239
Speaker 1: throw the football unless they absolutely have to. So I

947
00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:40,520
Speaker 1: do think Graham is probably the better option of those

948
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:42,560
Speaker 1: two tight ends there. And I'd say that if it

949
00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:45,160
Speaker 1: was Gerald Everett versus Jimmy Graham or Tyler Higby versus

950
00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:48,279
Speaker 1: Jimmy Graham. I think I'm going Graham either way. All right,

951
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:51,000
Speaker 1: last one, so I mentioned Allan Robinson. We're starting him anyway,

952
00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:54,279
Speaker 1: But what are your projections for him point wise this week? Oh,

953
00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:56,839
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go a little high on Allan Robinson because

954
00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:58,719
Speaker 1: I want him to have a crazy breakout game and

955
00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:01,160
Speaker 1: be amazing like we know he can be. So I'm

956
00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:03,600
Speaker 1: gonna say he's gonna have twenty fantasy points tonight. Even

957
00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:06,279
Speaker 1: though I understand the Rams are ranked second against wide

958
00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 1: receivers in fantasy football. I don't care about that. You're

959
00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:10,560
Speaker 1: rid of the stats. I think he's rocking with twenty

960
00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:12,920
Speaker 1: points tonight. What do you have them for Marcus? I've

961
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:15,800
Speaker 1: got him right around sixteen. I think they're gonna target

962
00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:17,600
Speaker 1: him quite a bit, but I do think, you know,

963
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:20,799
Speaker 1: I think he'll have a decent game. Um, I don't

964
00:43:20,840 --> 00:43:22,600
Speaker 1: know if he gets in the end zone, but I think,

965
00:43:22,680 --> 00:43:24,799
Speaker 1: you know, between the catches in the yards, I think

966
00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:27,080
Speaker 1: the number is gonna be okay for Alan Robinson. I mean,

967
00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:29,520
Speaker 1: he's a guy that has shown us regardless of the matchup,

968
00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:31,960
Speaker 1: regardless of who's throwing the football, he's gonna go out

969
00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:33,920
Speaker 1: there and he's going to make plays and he's going

970
00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:35,560
Speaker 1: to produce, which is why I said, I don't care

971
00:43:35,640 --> 00:43:38,920
Speaker 1: that the matchup is bad on paper. I'm starting Allen Robinson.

972
00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:41,279
Speaker 1: You spent an early round draft pick on him for

973
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:43,839
Speaker 1: a reason, and so you're going to kind of let

974
00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:45,880
Speaker 1: it ride. You're gonna let him lay this week, and uh,

975
00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:48,480
Speaker 1: you know you're gonna expect I hope for the best,

976
00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:51,040
Speaker 1: and hopefully he gets you somewhere in the mid teams.

977
00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:53,279
Speaker 1: And you know, if you get twenty, hey, then you're

978
00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:57,879
Speaker 1: dancing at that point. So, uh, brisket sandwiches for everybody tonight, Yes,

979
00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:01,200
Speaker 1: brisket sandwiches. I'll go. I'll come drop some vibe by

00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:02,920
Speaker 1: your place as well. We gotta we gotta spread the

981
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,040
