0:00:26.760 --> 0:00:29.120
<v Speaker 1>Paul Charchy and from fanball dot Com. My co host

0:00:29.160 --> 0:00:33.800
<v Speaker 1>of this week are Scott Fish and Matt Harrison. Hello, guys,

0:00:34.240 --> 0:00:36.519
<v Speaker 1>what's going on? Char Um? What I'm talking to you?

0:00:36.560 --> 0:00:39.560
<v Speaker 1>That's what's going on. We're bringing week ten fantasy advice

0:00:39.600 --> 0:00:42.200
<v Speaker 1>to people. It's very exciting. Big pull of that caffeinated

0:00:42.280 --> 0:00:45.680
<v Speaker 1>beverage and I'm ready, all right, go yeah, bring it on, baby.

0:00:46.080 --> 0:00:49.200
<v Speaker 1>If you can't do it, the caffeine can, it will.

0:00:49.200 --> 0:00:51.400
<v Speaker 1>Over the course of today, we're gonna break down every

0:00:51.479 --> 0:00:54.440
<v Speaker 1>game fantasy style. Like always, we give you letter grades

0:00:54.480 --> 0:00:57.120
<v Speaker 1>on every meaningful player. We tell you are rationale behind

0:00:57.200 --> 0:00:59.160
<v Speaker 1>those grades, so you can decide if you agree with

0:00:59.280 --> 0:01:02.240
<v Speaker 1>us or not. We'll answer three tough questions. We'll give

0:01:02.280 --> 0:01:04.720
<v Speaker 1>you nine players upon whom which you can take a chance,

0:01:04.800 --> 0:01:08.560
<v Speaker 1>and we will jump into our time machine and give

0:01:08.600 --> 0:01:11.920
<v Speaker 1>you some premature speculation is to who to pick up

0:01:12.440 --> 0:01:15.080
<v Speaker 1>this week. Everybody else we'll be trying to pick up

0:01:15.240 --> 0:01:18.480
<v Speaker 1>next week. That's uh. I think we rocked it last week.

0:01:18.480 --> 0:01:19.760
<v Speaker 1>By the way, I think we had some good ones

0:01:19.800 --> 0:01:21.360
<v Speaker 1>on there, but I don't remember who they were, but

0:01:21.480 --> 0:01:23.600
<v Speaker 1>I remember Kareem Hunt was one of them. I think

0:01:23.640 --> 0:01:25.440
<v Speaker 1>that's gonna work out. Well. It wasn't the two of

0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:27.720
<v Speaker 1>us on the show with you last week, so of

0:01:27.760 --> 0:01:31.120
<v Speaker 1>course there wasn't good. We didn't listen at all. Thank you. Yes,

0:01:31.280 --> 0:01:33.440
<v Speaker 1>that's that's a heck of an endorsement for our show.

0:01:34.080 --> 0:01:36.399
<v Speaker 1>Let's jump into the matchups, Matt, beginning with you your

0:01:36.400 --> 0:01:39.800
<v Speaker 1>first Ravens taking on the Bengals. The Bengals run defense

0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:41.840
<v Speaker 1>has been terrible. Their past defense has been good, and

0:01:41.840 --> 0:01:43.720
<v Speaker 1>here comes the Ravens who love to run the ball.

0:01:44.160 --> 0:01:47.400
<v Speaker 1>It's weird because my first note is on the Ravens side,

0:01:47.520 --> 0:01:51.919
<v Speaker 1>start everyone who runs the ball ye perfect mark Ingram

0:01:51.920 --> 0:01:54.560
<v Speaker 1>gets an A grade. Gus Edwards is even startable in

0:01:54.600 --> 0:01:57.760
<v Speaker 1>a pinch. It's a sixteen by week. Yeah, I think

0:01:57.760 --> 0:02:01.440
<v Speaker 1>it's a great matchup, is for sure. Take on I

0:02:01.520 --> 0:02:04.040
<v Speaker 1>almost I was my take on for a while. Yeah.

0:02:04.080 --> 0:02:05.559
<v Speaker 1>By the way, for those that are new to the show,

0:02:05.600 --> 0:02:08.480
<v Speaker 1>take on take a chance on me players. Yes, yes,

0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:11.880
<v Speaker 1>So the Bengals are bottom five in rushing attempts allowed,

0:02:12.040 --> 0:02:17.760
<v Speaker 1>yards per game, allowed, yards per carry, rushing touchdowns, yards

0:02:18.040 --> 0:02:20.960
<v Speaker 1>to running backs, and receiving touchdowns allowed to running backs.

0:02:21.080 --> 0:02:23.679
<v Speaker 1>Edwards iszier to take a chance on a guy. That's

0:02:23.680 --> 0:02:26.840
<v Speaker 1>weird because normally we'd throw this match up later. Anyway,

0:02:26.919 --> 0:02:28.840
<v Speaker 1>Gus Edwards, you can start him too, he's started. Just

0:02:28.880 --> 0:02:32.040
<v Speaker 1>take a chance on me. Lamar Jackson, by the way,

0:02:32.080 --> 0:02:34.119
<v Speaker 1>he gets an A grade, he's probably chart his top

0:02:34.200 --> 0:02:38.280
<v Speaker 1>quarterback this week, I would imagine, pretty close. Two. Bengals

0:02:38.280 --> 0:02:41.280
<v Speaker 1>have only given up eleven touchdowns through the air this year,

0:02:41.440 --> 0:02:44.760
<v Speaker 1>but have allowed one and forty more rushing yards to

0:02:44.840 --> 0:02:48.160
<v Speaker 1>opposing quarterbacks than any other team in the league. And

0:02:48.280 --> 0:02:51.639
<v Speaker 1>that's mostly due to Lamar Jackson torching them for one

0:02:51.720 --> 0:02:54.200
<v Speaker 1>fifty two and a score in the earlier meeting about

0:02:54.200 --> 0:02:57.480
<v Speaker 1>three weeks ago. Uh. The only other start grade on

0:02:57.520 --> 0:03:00.440
<v Speaker 1>the on the raven side I have is Mark Andrews,

0:03:00.480 --> 0:03:03.680
<v Speaker 1>and it's kind of a tepid B grade because there's

0:03:03.680 --> 0:03:06.760
<v Speaker 1>a tight end waste land this this week and Andrews

0:03:06.800 --> 0:03:08.640
<v Speaker 1>is still a good starter. I think he's still the

0:03:08.680 --> 0:03:11.720
<v Speaker 1>top tight end there. Despite Nick Boyle having twice as

0:03:11.720 --> 0:03:14.800
<v Speaker 1>many targets and catches last week, Andrews has been dinged

0:03:14.840 --> 0:03:17.359
<v Speaker 1>up a little bit. Um. It's concerning that he only

0:03:17.360 --> 0:03:19.760
<v Speaker 1>had thirty percent of the snaps last week and only

0:03:19.840 --> 0:03:22.320
<v Speaker 1>ran fourteen routes against the Patriots, but that was the

0:03:22.320 --> 0:03:24.239
<v Speaker 1>Patriots and maybe they were playing a different kind of

0:03:24.280 --> 0:03:27.359
<v Speaker 1>ball game. But he's basically the only tight end that's

0:03:27.360 --> 0:03:30.480
<v Speaker 1>done anything against the Bengals this year. Um. He had

0:03:30.520 --> 0:03:33.239
<v Speaker 1>six in the first meeting, and Dawson Knox was the

0:03:33.280 --> 0:03:35.280
<v Speaker 1>only tight end to score against the Bengals this year,

0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:38.280
<v Speaker 1>So you haven't needed to use a tight end to

0:03:38.280 --> 0:03:40.640
<v Speaker 1>beat the Bengals. So that's why Mark Andrews is only

0:03:40.760 --> 0:03:42.880
<v Speaker 1>just a B grade. And that's really I don't think

0:03:42.880 --> 0:03:45.120
<v Speaker 1>the Bengals are a great past defense and just don't

0:03:45.160 --> 0:03:47.960
<v Speaker 1>have to pass, so teams don't. You don't, and that's

0:03:47.960 --> 0:03:51.520
<v Speaker 1>why I'm benching all the wide receivers. No Baltimore wide

0:03:51.520 --> 0:03:54.560
<v Speaker 1>receiver has more than five targets in a game since

0:03:54.640 --> 0:03:59.400
<v Speaker 1>Week four. That's ridiculous. The last time these teams played

0:03:59.800 --> 0:04:02.800
<v Speaker 1>my else Boykin's two catches for twenty eight yards was

0:04:02.840 --> 0:04:07.000
<v Speaker 1>the top fantasy day for all wide receivers. On the

0:04:07.000 --> 0:04:10.400
<v Speaker 1>other side, A J. Green had a setback. He's out indefinitely.

0:04:10.560 --> 0:04:13.760
<v Speaker 1>Some say his ankle responded poorly to practice this week.

0:04:13.960 --> 0:04:16.800
<v Speaker 1>Others think his ankle responded poorly to seeing Ryan Finley

0:04:16.839 --> 0:04:21.120
<v Speaker 1>taking first team reps. We'll have the ankle or baby,

0:04:21.160 --> 0:04:23.839
<v Speaker 1>he just saw Jalen Ramsey sit out and get a contract,

0:04:23.880 --> 0:04:29.520
<v Speaker 1>And yeah, Finlay's on the bench. By the way, eight

0:04:29.520 --> 0:04:31.720
<v Speaker 1>of the nine quarterbacks to face the Ravens have been

0:04:31.720 --> 0:04:34.440
<v Speaker 1>held to zero or one touchdown passes, and over the

0:04:34.480 --> 0:04:37.600
<v Speaker 1>last five games, the Ravens has have had as many

0:04:37.640 --> 0:04:42.320
<v Speaker 1>picks as touchdowns allowed, which means Tyler Boyd and out

0:04:42.360 --> 0:04:45.040
<v Speaker 1>In Tate aren't doing very good. Tate had the bigger

0:04:45.080 --> 0:04:47.760
<v Speaker 1>game last time these teams faced, registering five catches for

0:04:47.839 --> 0:04:50.359
<v Speaker 1>ninety one yards on twelve targets, but that was with

0:04:50.400 --> 0:04:53.520
<v Speaker 1>Andy Dalton. Boyd was targeted seven times and only had

0:04:53.560 --> 0:04:56.359
<v Speaker 1>three catches for ten of the two. I'd give Boyd

0:04:56.440 --> 0:04:59.120
<v Speaker 1>the tepid see. The Ravens have allowed big days to

0:04:59.200 --> 0:05:03.680
<v Speaker 1>a handful of slot receivers, including Landry Kirk Fitzgerald, Juju

0:05:03.880 --> 0:05:07.279
<v Speaker 1>s new Edelman Lockett. Yeah, I'll mention this, and this

0:05:07.360 --> 0:05:09.000
<v Speaker 1>goes back to one of the long held beliefs of

0:05:09.000 --> 0:05:13.279
<v Speaker 1>this show, Fantasy Football Weekly. What what's when something is

0:05:13.400 --> 0:05:15.719
<v Speaker 1>bad for an offense, it's bad for all the players

0:05:15.760 --> 0:05:18.120
<v Speaker 1>on the office. When a J. Green is out, you

0:05:18.200 --> 0:05:22.680
<v Speaker 1>get far less productivity from Tyler Boyd historically than when

0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:25.240
<v Speaker 1>a J. Green is in. I can't imagine Ryan Finley

0:05:25.279 --> 0:05:27.920
<v Speaker 1>is good for the offense either. It might that's that's

0:05:27.960 --> 0:05:30.040
<v Speaker 1>not it's not a good They might just focus on

0:05:30.080 --> 0:05:32.719
<v Speaker 1>Tyler Boyd or something like that. But Joe Mixon I

0:05:32.760 --> 0:05:34.640
<v Speaker 1>only gave a C grade two and it's more it's

0:05:34.640 --> 0:05:36.560
<v Speaker 1>closer to a bench Mixing had his best day of

0:05:36.560 --> 0:05:40.360
<v Speaker 1>the year last week, but only logged of the offensive

0:05:40.400 --> 0:05:43.560
<v Speaker 1>snaps and managed only three point seven yards per carry.

0:05:43.839 --> 0:05:46.680
<v Speaker 1>He only got thirty nine yards on ten touches in

0:05:46.680 --> 0:05:50.120
<v Speaker 1>the last meeting with the Ravens. That's about the floor. Unfortunately,

0:05:50.160 --> 0:05:53.080
<v Speaker 1>it's like my basement apartment in college where the ceiling

0:05:53.160 --> 0:05:55.400
<v Speaker 1>and the floor are really close to each other. I

0:05:55.440 --> 0:05:57.720
<v Speaker 1>think you had like two yards. The Ravens are only

0:05:57.760 --> 0:06:00.440
<v Speaker 1>allowing fifty six point eight rushing yards to the running

0:06:00.440 --> 0:06:02.960
<v Speaker 1>back position over their last four games. I think that's

0:06:03.000 --> 0:06:06.000
<v Speaker 1>the high water market. It's about fifty seven yards for Joe.

0:06:06.440 --> 0:06:09.279
<v Speaker 1>So it's it's just bad all around. And since yeah,

0:06:09.400 --> 0:06:12.240
<v Speaker 1>it's it's been a it's I hate, I hate this.

0:06:12.240 --> 0:06:17.200
<v Speaker 1>This is I'm just I'm not. I'm not. Joe's gonna

0:06:17.240 --> 0:06:19.160
<v Speaker 1>go it. We told you Joe Mixon was sitting on

0:06:19.200 --> 0:06:21.120
<v Speaker 1>a bad season. The offensive line is gonna make it

0:06:21.200 --> 0:06:24.600
<v Speaker 1>really hard for him. If you can still happy Joe

0:06:24.680 --> 0:06:28.520
<v Speaker 1>Mixon in a dynasty or an empire, yeah, need go

0:06:28.560 --> 0:06:30.800
<v Speaker 1>out and look for him because they're probably gonna have

0:06:30.800 --> 0:06:33.240
<v Speaker 1>a quarterback. They're probably gonna spend some high draft picks

0:06:33.240 --> 0:06:35.400
<v Speaker 1>on the offensive line. It's fair. I think Zach Taylor

0:06:35.480 --> 0:06:38.599
<v Speaker 1>is probably a good offensive mine. It's gonna it's gonna

0:06:38.640 --> 0:06:43.640
<v Speaker 1>come back around that man. That the management I think.

0:06:43.880 --> 0:06:45.680
<v Speaker 1>I think Matt's right though. I think this is a

0:06:45.880 --> 0:06:48.120
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna be historically, we'll look back and go this

0:06:48.160 --> 0:06:51.560
<v Speaker 1>with the by low moment. Joe Mixon, Yeah, I think

0:06:51.600 --> 0:06:53.599
<v Speaker 1>this is the time to go grab him. Chiefs take

0:06:53.680 --> 0:06:56.960
<v Speaker 1>on the Titans, and the Chiefs will get Patrick Mahomes back.

0:06:57.080 --> 0:06:59.119
<v Speaker 1>He's got the injurneed. So he's gonna be wearing a brace,

0:06:59.160 --> 0:07:03.280
<v Speaker 1>and that means that mahomes mobility will be limited at

0:07:03.400 --> 0:07:06.760
<v Speaker 1>least somewhat, and that does sap some of his productivity here.

0:07:07.000 --> 0:07:10.440
<v Speaker 1>He's not like my normal number one quarterback for the week. Um,

0:07:10.440 --> 0:07:13.160
<v Speaker 1>but he does get an A grade. Titan secondaries of

0:07:13.200 --> 0:07:16.080
<v Speaker 1>middle of the pack unit allowing exactly two touchdowns in

0:07:16.200 --> 0:07:20.160
<v Speaker 1>five different games, including the last three games straight two touchdowns.

0:07:20.200 --> 0:07:22.840
<v Speaker 1>So um, one of the reasons I do like Mahomes though,

0:07:23.720 --> 0:07:26.840
<v Speaker 1>Titans just put Malcolm Butler on. I are Tyreek Hill

0:07:27.080 --> 0:07:30.560
<v Speaker 1>kind of just run through this defense. I like Tyree

0:07:30.640 --> 0:07:32.560
<v Speaker 1>Hill a lot. He also gets an A grade. He's

0:07:32.560 --> 0:07:35.440
<v Speaker 1>averaged one eight yards with a score in the two

0:07:35.480 --> 0:07:38.680
<v Speaker 1>games started by Matt Moore and has scored four times

0:07:38.680 --> 0:07:40.880
<v Speaker 1>in his many games since his return from injury. We

0:07:41.040 --> 0:07:44.240
<v Speaker 1>like all of those numbers. No Malcolm Butler, as I mentioned, Um,

0:07:44.280 --> 0:07:46.360
<v Speaker 1>this is a great opportunity for Tyreek Hill, who's an

0:07:46.360 --> 0:07:49.520
<v Speaker 1>A grade, and so's Travis Kelsey, who averages twenty extra

0:07:49.680 --> 0:07:52.559
<v Speaker 1>yards and Mahomes games as opposed to Matt Moore games,

0:07:52.760 --> 0:07:55.640
<v Speaker 1>and he goes back to being an obvious A starter. Now.

0:07:55.720 --> 0:07:59.800
<v Speaker 1>Sammy Watkins shows up here. As an opportunity as well. Again,

0:08:00.400 --> 0:08:02.680
<v Speaker 1>um he, I think the Malcolm Butler loss will be

0:08:02.840 --> 0:08:06.360
<v Speaker 1>will at least sometimes affect Sammy Watkins. But he also

0:08:06.480 --> 0:08:08.080
<v Speaker 1>runs out of the slot a lot, and that puts

0:08:08.160 --> 0:08:10.800
<v Speaker 1>him up against Logan Ryan, who is surrendered just one

0:08:10.840 --> 0:08:13.360
<v Speaker 1>score in his last seven games. So a C start

0:08:13.400 --> 0:08:16.160
<v Speaker 1>on Sammy Watkins, but he is startable here. Let's go

0:08:16.200 --> 0:08:21.320
<v Speaker 1>to Damian Williams, who ripped off that er last week.

0:08:21.840 --> 0:08:26.680
<v Speaker 1>A reminder that outside of that run, Damian Williams has

0:08:26.720 --> 0:08:31.240
<v Speaker 1>been dreadful, averaging two point three yards per carry and

0:08:31.320 --> 0:08:37.160
<v Speaker 1>maybe more importantly, eight carries per game. That's it, do

0:08:37.240 --> 0:08:41.880
<v Speaker 1>not chase last week's yard or it's there's one exception

0:08:41.920 --> 0:08:46.720
<v Speaker 1>to that. If well, yeah, maybe then go ahead and

0:08:46.720 --> 0:08:51.120
<v Speaker 1>start against me. Um. The Titans are an excellent run defense,

0:08:51.559 --> 0:08:55.600
<v Speaker 1>but only when they're starting defensive tackle Drill Casey is playing.

0:08:55.760 --> 0:08:58.480
<v Speaker 1>If he if he has a setback and does not play,

0:08:58.520 --> 0:09:00.400
<v Speaker 1>we think he's gonna play. If he doesn't play, then

0:09:00.480 --> 0:09:03.600
<v Speaker 1>Damian Williams would be elevated up to a higher status.

0:09:03.640 --> 0:09:05.319
<v Speaker 1>As it is right now, I have a begrudging C

0:09:05.480 --> 0:09:08.600
<v Speaker 1>grade on him because Lashawn McCoy is not even a

0:09:08.640 --> 0:09:12.800
<v Speaker 1>factor in this offense anymore diminishing workload in four straight games,

0:09:12.880 --> 0:09:16.199
<v Speaker 1>he's on the bench. Me Cole Hardman averaging ten plays

0:09:16.320 --> 0:09:19.960
<v Speaker 1>per game. Since Sammy Watkins came back, he's on the bench.

0:09:20.280 --> 0:09:23.160
<v Speaker 1>And DeMarcus Robinson has head diminishing snap counts in six

0:09:23.200 --> 0:09:25.600
<v Speaker 1>straight games, he's on the bench. Got a fun staff

0:09:25.600 --> 0:09:27.840
<v Speaker 1>for you on McCoy alright's here. Since he fumbled two

0:09:27.880 --> 0:09:30.480
<v Speaker 1>games ago, he's had six touches. Yeah, there you go.

0:09:31.080 --> 0:09:36.120
<v Speaker 1>In a standard redraft league twelve teamer, how many Chiefs

0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:39.120
<v Speaker 1>are rosterable right now? Well, you got mahomes Hill and

0:09:39.200 --> 0:09:42.200
<v Speaker 1>Kelsey Bank they're in, and then after that it's it's

0:09:42.240 --> 0:09:46.800
<v Speaker 1>you've got Sammy Watkins, the middling starter, and then Damian Williams.

0:09:46.920 --> 0:09:50.840
<v Speaker 1>As a Damian Williams hit waiver wires in some leagues,

0:09:50.840 --> 0:09:55.400
<v Speaker 1>I would understand that, but it's still the starting running

0:09:55.400 --> 0:09:58.640
<v Speaker 1>back on a Chief's offense, so I you know, I

0:09:58.640 --> 0:10:00.959
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't drop him by any stretch. All right, let's go

0:10:01.000 --> 0:10:03.520
<v Speaker 1>to the Tennessee side. Derrick Henry is an obvious A

0:10:03.679 --> 0:10:06.400
<v Speaker 1>grade here. The Chiefs run defense has been better over

0:10:06.400 --> 0:10:09.600
<v Speaker 1>the last three games, holding quality runners. Philip Lindsay, Aaron

0:10:09.679 --> 0:10:11.600
<v Speaker 1>Jones and Dalvin Cook to an average of fifty eight

0:10:11.679 --> 0:10:15.520
<v Speaker 1>rushing yards, none of them scored. Still, I'm not ready

0:10:15.559 --> 0:10:17.959
<v Speaker 1>to say that this is a stopper run defense in

0:10:18.040 --> 0:10:21.240
<v Speaker 1>Kansas City. Henry has seen his rushing attempts, rushing yards,

0:10:21.240 --> 0:10:23.960
<v Speaker 1>and snap percentage decrease in three consecutive games, but his

0:10:24.040 --> 0:10:27.079
<v Speaker 1>yards per carry is increases being more effective on fewer carries,

0:10:27.240 --> 0:10:30.720
<v Speaker 1>and he's still a workhorse getting who's yielding no runs

0:10:30.760 --> 0:10:34.199
<v Speaker 1>to Dan Lewis whatsoever. And Henry is the only Tennessee

0:10:34.240 --> 0:10:36.040
<v Speaker 1>back with a carry inside the five yard line when

0:10:36.080 --> 0:10:38.200
<v Speaker 1>he touchdowns will go to him. He isn't a grade

0:10:38.520 --> 0:10:40.480
<v Speaker 1>for the passing game. I've only got two players you

0:10:40.520 --> 0:10:42.920
<v Speaker 1>could start, and that's Ryan Tannehill with a C grade,

0:10:43.360 --> 0:10:46.040
<v Speaker 1>even though he's been good over the last three weeks,

0:10:46.440 --> 0:10:49.839
<v Speaker 1>averaging depending on your scoring system, roughly quarterback five, quarterback six,

0:10:49.920 --> 0:10:53.680
<v Speaker 1>quarterback seven. That's awfully good for Ryan Tannehill since becoming

0:10:53.720 --> 0:10:57.240
<v Speaker 1>the starter. But the Kansas City secondary is much improved

0:10:57.240 --> 0:10:59.880
<v Speaker 1>from last year. Even though they allowed back to back

0:11:00.000 --> 0:11:02.520
<v Speaker 1>re touchdown games, they've played way better than those box

0:11:02.520 --> 0:11:05.000
<v Speaker 1>scores suggest, and prior to those games, they'd allowed just

0:11:05.040 --> 0:11:06.959
<v Speaker 1>one point one touchdowns per game. I've got a C

0:11:07.120 --> 0:11:09.960
<v Speaker 1>grade in Ryan Tannehill. A C grade on A. J. Brown,

0:11:10.000 --> 0:11:13.240
<v Speaker 1>who's commanded at least seven targets and two of Tannehill's

0:11:13.280 --> 0:11:16.000
<v Speaker 1>three games while notching at least sixty four yards and

0:11:16.120 --> 0:11:19.520
<v Speaker 1>or he touchdown in each of those games. It's again,

0:11:19.920 --> 0:11:22.800
<v Speaker 1>Chief secondary has been good um over the last five weeks.

0:11:22.800 --> 0:11:25.480
<v Speaker 1>Only the Chicago Bears have yielded fewer fantasy points per

0:11:25.480 --> 0:11:28.440
<v Speaker 1>game to opposing receivers in Kansas City. So it is

0:11:28.760 --> 0:11:31.880
<v Speaker 1>it is only a C grade on A. J. Brown.

0:11:31.920 --> 0:11:34.280
<v Speaker 1>Corey Davis is got a hip injury and he is

0:11:34.280 --> 0:11:36.880
<v Speaker 1>not expected to play in this game. One other guy

0:11:36.960 --> 0:11:40.000
<v Speaker 1>I I missed this on page two, another C grade,

0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:42.880
<v Speaker 1>John Nu Smith Delanny Walker, expected to miss this game.

0:11:43.000 --> 0:11:45.800
<v Speaker 1>Smith's been getting sev of the tight end snap since

0:11:45.800 --> 0:11:48.760
<v Speaker 1>Walker left. Opposing teams have been targeting the tight end

0:11:48.800 --> 0:11:51.280
<v Speaker 1>against the Chiefs. They're tied for the league lead in

0:11:51.640 --> 0:11:55.280
<v Speaker 1>tight end targets against them. They've had eight seven tight

0:11:55.400 --> 0:11:57.720
<v Speaker 1>end pass has come their way this year, only three

0:11:57.760 --> 0:12:00.800
<v Speaker 1>TV tight ends of top thirty nine yard though, so

0:12:00.840 --> 0:12:02.720
<v Speaker 1>even though there's a lot of attempts, they aren't necessarily

0:12:02.760 --> 0:12:06.200
<v Speaker 1>being super productive in a six team by week JONU

0:12:06.280 --> 0:12:11.400
<v Speaker 1>Smith C grade. Let's go to the Cardinals taking on

0:12:11.720 --> 0:12:14.040
<v Speaker 1>the Bucks, and I know where you want to start

0:12:14.080 --> 0:12:18.600
<v Speaker 1>with this Scott Fantasy Football's highest scoring kicker going up

0:12:18.600 --> 0:12:21.680
<v Speaker 1>against the defense allowing the most points to kickers. Yes,

0:12:21.760 --> 0:12:26.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure that's it's all about the kicker analysis for you.

0:12:27.000 --> 0:12:29.679
<v Speaker 1>That's where you're going to Zane Gonzalez. Isn't a grade,

0:12:29.679 --> 0:12:31.880
<v Speaker 1>It's Scott fish Bowl next year going to be like

0:12:32.000 --> 0:12:35.559
<v Speaker 1>two kicker positions for each team. It's yeah, kicker, all

0:12:35.640 --> 0:12:39.400
<v Speaker 1>kicker flexes. That's all it is. Uh No, we're not

0:12:39.400 --> 0:12:43.199
<v Speaker 1>going to start their charge. I honestly, this game is

0:12:43.240 --> 0:12:44.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna be fun to watch, though. I want to inject

0:12:44.840 --> 0:12:47.240
<v Speaker 1>the shootout potential of this game in my veins because

0:12:47.240 --> 0:12:52.199
<v Speaker 1>it's it's like it doesn't sound good, but but but

0:12:52.559 --> 0:12:57.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm touching my arm to it was disgusting. The over

0:12:57.480 --> 0:13:00.600
<v Speaker 1>under this game is fifty two. Uh The rich combined

0:13:00.640 --> 0:13:04.160
<v Speaker 1>scores in our Arizona Cardinals games fifty points. The average

0:13:04.160 --> 0:13:07.760
<v Speaker 1>point combined points scored in Bucks games this year sixty points.

0:13:07.840 --> 0:13:10.200
<v Speaker 1>There's a lot of scoring, and when when these two

0:13:10.200 --> 0:13:12.960
<v Speaker 1>are meet, there should be a lot of scoring. Both

0:13:12.960 --> 0:13:15.200
<v Speaker 1>teams in the match. In this matchup are bottom four

0:13:15.280 --> 0:13:18.240
<v Speaker 1>in a bunch of categories against quarterbacks. So I have

0:13:18.240 --> 0:13:21.360
<v Speaker 1>Winston and Murray with a's. I'm gonna flip side there.

0:13:21.480 --> 0:13:25.480
<v Speaker 1>I have them both with A grades. Um, let's stay

0:13:25.480 --> 0:13:28.319
<v Speaker 1>on the Cardinals side though, I'm gonna I'm gonna give

0:13:28.320 --> 0:13:31.160
<v Speaker 1>B grades to both his two main options. Kirk did

0:13:31.200 --> 0:13:33.520
<v Speaker 1>get shut down against San Francisco, but he had double

0:13:33.559 --> 0:13:36.720
<v Speaker 1>digit targets the prior week, and three of the games

0:13:36.720 --> 0:13:38.959
<v Speaker 1>he's played with Kyler he's had double digit targets. That's

0:13:38.960 --> 0:13:41.280
<v Speaker 1>three of his five or six games. Christian Kirk's available

0:13:41.280 --> 0:13:43.880
<v Speaker 1>on a lot of leaks. That's standard absence of his

0:13:44.040 --> 0:13:46.959
<v Speaker 1>He is a great opportunity. First, He's actually had more

0:13:47.000 --> 0:13:50.439
<v Speaker 1>targets uh than Fitzgerald in each of the last three

0:13:50.480 --> 0:13:53.520
<v Speaker 1>games they played together. Because you know Kirks sometimes. It's

0:13:53.520 --> 0:13:55.920
<v Speaker 1>just been a pretty big disappointment this year and I

0:13:55.960 --> 0:13:58.320
<v Speaker 1>am I'm still giving him a B grade because of

0:13:58.360 --> 0:14:01.319
<v Speaker 1>the matchup. The Bucks have allowed ten wide receiver touchdowns

0:14:01.320 --> 0:14:03.920
<v Speaker 1>in just the last five games, and five wide receivers

0:14:03.960 --> 0:14:06.880
<v Speaker 1>went over a D and twenty yards. Thirteen different wide

0:14:06.880 --> 0:14:09.679
<v Speaker 1>receivers in those five weeks. Top seventy yards or scored

0:14:09.920 --> 0:14:13.120
<v Speaker 1>in five weeks, thirteen of them. Now, the Bucks slot

0:14:13.120 --> 0:14:15.640
<v Speaker 1>cornerback for the last two seasons has been m J. Stewart,

0:14:15.640 --> 0:14:19.120
<v Speaker 1>but he was so bad that they benched him and

0:14:19.160 --> 0:14:22.160
<v Speaker 1>they've been cobbling together other other help in the slot

0:14:22.280 --> 0:14:24.760
<v Speaker 1>the Bucks have. But now here comes. Here comes the

0:14:24.840 --> 0:14:27.120
<v Speaker 1>Cardinals with two slot receivers, as there are number one

0:14:27.160 --> 0:14:31.000
<v Speaker 1>and number two receiving targets slot receivers. So Matt might

0:14:31.000 --> 0:14:32.720
<v Speaker 1>put m J. Stewart back on the field and that

0:14:32.760 --> 0:14:37.040
<v Speaker 1>would be a huge bonus for either Fitzgerald or Kirk. Yeah,

0:14:37.360 --> 0:14:39.600
<v Speaker 1>it's it's a match if I like for both of them,

0:14:39.600 --> 0:14:42.600
<v Speaker 1>but I'm giving them both B grades. I do think

0:14:42.680 --> 0:14:45.320
<v Speaker 1>Mary gets it done, though, I've Clay on the bench.

0:14:45.640 --> 0:14:48.160
<v Speaker 1>Bucks are might be bad against tight ends, but you're

0:14:48.160 --> 0:14:53.600
<v Speaker 1>not trustee Joss Clay for anything. Um Johnson and Drake Man.

0:14:54.040 --> 0:14:58.720
<v Speaker 1>The Bucks rundy is actually pretty decent. This very good. Yeah,

0:14:58.760 --> 0:15:01.080
<v Speaker 1>three point three yards per are in just four total

0:15:01.160 --> 0:15:05.640
<v Speaker 1>running back touchdowns. My even McCaffrey was held to fifty

0:15:05.680 --> 0:15:08.600
<v Speaker 1>seven total yards and he had two of those four touchdowns.

0:15:09.200 --> 0:15:12.520
<v Speaker 1>So I actually have both of them on the bench.

0:15:13.120 --> 0:15:15.640
<v Speaker 1>I can see giving them a C grade dart throw

0:15:15.680 --> 0:15:18.680
<v Speaker 1>because there's six teams on by. I know that David

0:15:18.720 --> 0:15:20.640
<v Speaker 1>Johnson was working out of the slot a lot this

0:15:20.680 --> 0:15:22.800
<v Speaker 1>week in practice with with Kennyan Drake, and they were

0:15:22.880 --> 0:15:24.280
<v Speaker 1>trying to get them both on the field, so that

0:15:24.320 --> 0:15:26.800
<v Speaker 1>could be interesting. But I'm worried against a good run

0:15:26.880 --> 0:15:29.400
<v Speaker 1>dy that it'll sap both of them. So I think

0:15:29.440 --> 0:15:32.640
<v Speaker 1>that's fair over on the over. On the buck side,

0:15:33.080 --> 0:15:35.200
<v Speaker 1>Evans is an A and Godwin's an A. I really

0:15:35.200 --> 0:15:37.040
<v Speaker 1>don't feel like we need to talk about that much,

0:15:37.120 --> 0:15:41.040
<v Speaker 1>do we. It's against certainly not Evans, who's been red hot. Yeah,

0:15:41.080 --> 0:15:44.160
<v Speaker 1>now for Godwin. You know a lot of Evans. When

0:15:44.160 --> 0:15:48.000
<v Speaker 1>Evans is having these blow up monster games, Godwin's not. Yeah,

0:15:48.080 --> 0:15:51.080
<v Speaker 1>god they both come. I think two games they've had

0:15:51.120 --> 0:15:54.080
<v Speaker 1>that both of them were had decent games. But in

0:15:54.120 --> 0:15:56.440
<v Speaker 1>this one, three of the four one yard games against

0:15:56.480 --> 0:15:59.720
<v Speaker 1>the Cardinals came from the slot um and Godwin does

0:15:59.720 --> 0:16:02.640
<v Speaker 1>play all over, but it's from this lot, So I

0:16:03.000 --> 0:16:05.000
<v Speaker 1>like his matchup there. I'm still giving an A grade.

0:16:05.480 --> 0:16:07.760
<v Speaker 1>Uh you're not. You're not betching him, all right. I

0:16:08.080 --> 0:16:10.440
<v Speaker 1>brought a prop that won't work well on radio here,

0:16:10.480 --> 0:16:14.800
<v Speaker 1>but between Brighton. Howard's not your veins is Nope, you

0:16:14.960 --> 0:16:18.080
<v Speaker 1>start all tight ends against the Cardinals. Yes, but you

0:16:18.120 --> 0:16:20.800
<v Speaker 1>have Cameron Braid and O J. Howard coming back. But

0:16:21.080 --> 0:16:22.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if this I don't know if Braid's

0:16:22.840 --> 0:16:28.360
<v Speaker 1>gonna play. Yeah, there's that well flipping the Yeah, it

0:16:28.400 --> 0:16:31.560
<v Speaker 1>says to start O J. Howard. There we go. That's

0:16:31.560 --> 0:16:35.280
<v Speaker 1>award and it says to start break too. I don't

0:16:35.280 --> 0:16:40.360
<v Speaker 1>know if I'm believing. I think you should start Howard

0:16:40.400 --> 0:16:45.520
<v Speaker 1>over Brad's healthy grade there. Uh. In the Running game,

0:16:46.240 --> 0:16:50.080
<v Speaker 1>Oh wow. I'll talk about the Running Game later because

0:18:05.920 --> 0:18:07.480
<v Speaker 1>normally in your starting line at many of whom are

0:18:07.480 --> 0:18:09.800
<v Speaker 1>available on the waiver wire to take a chance on me.

0:18:10.080 --> 0:18:12.240
<v Speaker 1>And it's a very royalty free version, as we like

0:18:12.320 --> 0:18:17.000
<v Speaker 1>to say. These three sleeper quarterbacks, running back and receivers

0:18:17.400 --> 0:18:19.840
<v Speaker 1>when they hit paid her. You pay us exactly what

0:18:19.880 --> 0:18:24.960
<v Speaker 1>we paid for this crappy song. Zero dollars nothing, not

0:18:25.119 --> 0:18:27.480
<v Speaker 1>even a penny, not even a piece of a penny.

0:18:27.600 --> 0:18:31.600
<v Speaker 1>I wonder if people could send us more song. That

0:18:31.600 --> 0:18:33.680
<v Speaker 1>would be what do you mean? Do you mean not

0:18:33.680 --> 0:18:36.040
<v Speaker 1>not covering this song, but just different take a chance

0:18:36.080 --> 0:18:38.240
<v Speaker 1>on the type of song I mean, if they change

0:18:38.280 --> 0:18:41.879
<v Speaker 1>their mind, will be the first in line, because honey,

0:18:41.920 --> 0:18:46.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm still free? Are you free? Which haba was free?

0:18:46.280 --> 0:18:47.920
<v Speaker 1>It would be great. You could take a chance on

0:18:48.040 --> 0:18:50.159
<v Speaker 1>you know we needy be Sam Dark his music hit

0:18:50.200 --> 0:18:52.640
<v Speaker 1>the public domain, isn't aren't these songs old enough now

0:18:52.680 --> 0:18:56.520
<v Speaker 1>to hit the public dombay hundred years? God, wait a while.

0:18:56.520 --> 0:18:58.960
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's go to the quarterback position, Matt, who's

0:18:58.960 --> 0:19:01.640
<v Speaker 1>your take chance in the QUARTERBA is Sam Donald? Who

0:19:01.640 --> 0:19:04.600
<v Speaker 1>I put a big in parentheses yuck next to when

0:19:04.600 --> 0:19:07.359
<v Speaker 1>I did this? Um. The trends are going in the

0:19:07.359 --> 0:19:09.919
<v Speaker 1>correct direction, and in his last three games for him,

0:19:09.960 --> 0:19:12.520
<v Speaker 1>they're not Yeah. For him, he's gone from eighty six

0:19:12.600 --> 0:19:17.760
<v Speaker 1>yards passing to eighteen to sixty, and he's gone from

0:19:17.800 --> 0:19:23.600
<v Speaker 1>four interceptions to three interceptions to only one. Last and

0:19:23.760 --> 0:19:26.360
<v Speaker 1>guess what, the Giants defense has allowed an NFL high

0:19:26.440 --> 0:19:29.840
<v Speaker 1>eight point nine yards per pass attempt plus four of

0:19:29.880 --> 0:19:32.280
<v Speaker 1>the last five quarterbacks who have faced the Giants have

0:19:32.359 --> 0:19:36.040
<v Speaker 1>thrown for three yards or multiple scores, and that includes

0:19:36.119 --> 0:19:38.760
<v Speaker 1>three touchdown passes to each of the quarterbacks in the

0:19:38.800 --> 0:19:42.200
<v Speaker 1>last two weeks. Sam Donald, all right, Scott, you'll take

0:19:42.200 --> 0:19:43.960
<v Speaker 1>a chance at a quarterback. I know what I'm going with.

0:19:44.040 --> 0:19:47.160
<v Speaker 1>Jimmy g a lot of people. I am really shocked

0:19:47.160 --> 0:19:51.960
<v Speaker 1>by his ownership. It's like like he's available out there.

0:19:52.000 --> 0:19:54.920
<v Speaker 1>But more importantly, people aren't starting very much because the

0:19:55.400 --> 0:19:57.680
<v Speaker 1>four nine they don't need him to throw. They're running

0:19:57.680 --> 0:20:00.280
<v Speaker 1>a lot. This game against Seattle, he's gon to have

0:20:00.440 --> 0:20:04.000
<v Speaker 1>to pass. Seattle's averaging twenty seven points per game. Um

0:20:04.520 --> 0:20:08.000
<v Speaker 1>he in his career went forced to attempt more than

0:20:08.040 --> 0:20:11.360
<v Speaker 1>thirty three passes. Here's what Jimmy Garoppolo averages three thirty

0:20:11.440 --> 0:20:13.920
<v Speaker 1>yards and two touchdowns. Oh, I like it. We'd take that.

0:20:14.359 --> 0:20:16.920
<v Speaker 1>Call him three and two. Uh, because he's gonna throw

0:20:17.040 --> 0:20:20.560
<v Speaker 1>more than call it. I'm calling it all right, okay. Uh.

0:20:20.640 --> 0:20:23.960
<v Speaker 1>Sales allowed the second most completions, most attempts, and fourth

0:20:24.000 --> 0:20:26.080
<v Speaker 1>most past yards over the last five games. I like it.

0:20:26.119 --> 0:20:28.639
<v Speaker 1>I've got Daniel Jones going up against the Jets, the

0:20:28.680 --> 0:20:32.480
<v Speaker 1>aforementioned Jets, and Sam Darnold. Jones faces a Jets defense

0:20:32.520 --> 0:20:36.600
<v Speaker 1>that was obliterated by Gardner Minshew and Ryan Fitzpatrick over

0:20:36.640 --> 0:20:39.359
<v Speaker 1>the last two weeks. Gardner Minshew was just benched and

0:20:39.440 --> 0:20:43.000
<v Speaker 1>Ryan fitzpa was benched earlier the season. Put Gardner Minshew

0:20:43.040 --> 0:20:46.439
<v Speaker 1>in the same category as Ryan Fitzpatrick. He's not close.

0:20:46.760 --> 0:20:48.640
<v Speaker 1>I've got a long way to go. First of all,

0:20:48.920 --> 0:20:51.919
<v Speaker 1>Fitzpatrick's got way more facial hair. I mean it's not

0:20:51.960 --> 0:20:56.760
<v Speaker 1>even close right now, minshewash I think he's the stew

0:20:56.800 --> 0:20:58.520
<v Speaker 1>want to be. But I kind of like to sue

0:20:58.520 --> 0:21:01.359
<v Speaker 1>Steu Statche when I remember that. UM. Over the past

0:21:01.400 --> 0:21:06.320
<v Speaker 1>two weeks, Minshew and Fitzpatrick three touchdowns each over two

0:21:06.800 --> 0:21:09.840
<v Speaker 1>eight yards each against the Jets. They just put starting

0:21:10.119 --> 0:21:13.959
<v Speaker 1>cornerback Tremaine Johnson on I R. Every opposing quarterback has

0:21:14.000 --> 0:21:17.040
<v Speaker 1>scored against the Jets, and Daniel Jones is throwing a

0:21:17.080 --> 0:21:19.200
<v Speaker 1>touchdown in every game. Plus he runs in some stuff

0:21:19.200 --> 0:21:21.680
<v Speaker 1>a little bit too. So well, we're all that together,

0:21:21.760 --> 0:21:24.120
<v Speaker 1>Daniel Jones. Or take a chance on the quarterback. Let's

0:21:24.160 --> 0:21:26.600
<v Speaker 1>go to the running back position. You're the only one

0:21:26.640 --> 0:21:29.639
<v Speaker 1>with a secret running back to this point, it is

0:21:29.680 --> 0:21:33.440
<v Speaker 1>a secret secret to look like. Um, it's j D. Mckissic.

0:21:33.560 --> 0:21:35.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm going back to the well. I used him two

0:21:35.359 --> 0:21:37.760
<v Speaker 1>weeks ago. It didn't work out quite the right way,

0:21:37.800 --> 0:21:41.960
<v Speaker 1>but last week he looked okay, um, and tra Trey

0:21:42.040 --> 0:21:44.399
<v Speaker 1>Carson was put on I R. So it's now a

0:21:44.480 --> 0:21:47.920
<v Speaker 1>two man time share between Ty Johnson and mckissic. Uh.

0:21:47.960 --> 0:21:50.719
<v Speaker 1>Ty Johnson led the time share and snaps and touches

0:21:50.800 --> 0:21:53.000
<v Speaker 1>last week, but it was mkissic who took his seven

0:21:53.040 --> 0:21:55.359
<v Speaker 1>touches and turned them into seventy two yards in a score.

0:21:56.640 --> 0:21:59.320
<v Speaker 1>He's playing the Bears. The Bears are that good on

0:21:59.359 --> 0:22:02.760
<v Speaker 1>the ground, only allowing three point seven yards per carry

0:22:02.800 --> 0:22:04.600
<v Speaker 1>on the ground, and that's the fourth best in the league.

0:22:04.760 --> 0:22:07.800
<v Speaker 1>But they've given up the second most receptions and the

0:22:07.880 --> 0:22:12.120
<v Speaker 1>sixth most receiving yards to running where kiss it comes

0:22:12.119 --> 0:22:13.920
<v Speaker 1>into play. So I kind of like him this week.

0:22:13.960 --> 0:22:17.600
<v Speaker 1>All right, Scott, you'll take a chance for me running back. Surprise, surprise,

0:22:17.720 --> 0:22:21.440
<v Speaker 1>it's Ronald Jones. We didn't say. We did our Waiver

0:22:21.520 --> 0:22:24.760
<v Speaker 1>Wire podcast earlier this weekend. He was only owned, which

0:22:24.800 --> 0:22:28.240
<v Speaker 1>is sho ridiculous. I think it's risen to six, which

0:22:28.280 --> 0:22:31.919
<v Speaker 1>is which is nice. But now he's named the starter

0:22:32.000 --> 0:22:34.880
<v Speaker 1>after arians tried to ride the hot hand every week

0:22:34.920 --> 0:22:38.600
<v Speaker 1>for until now. He had twenty touches last week. If

0:22:38.640 --> 0:22:41.760
<v Speaker 1>he gets twenty again, here's what the six running backs

0:22:41.800 --> 0:22:44.600
<v Speaker 1>to have twenty touches against the cards did. Average stat

0:22:44.640 --> 0:22:47.879
<v Speaker 1>line hundred thirty two yards in a score. That's the

0:22:47.960 --> 0:22:50.760
<v Speaker 1>average stat line when you get twenty touches against the Cardinals.

0:22:50.760 --> 0:22:53.480
<v Speaker 1>All right, so if you can get there, you should

0:22:53.520 --> 0:22:55.920
<v Speaker 1>have a good game. He's a starter, he has a chance.

0:22:58.440 --> 0:23:02.720
<v Speaker 1>I've got Gus Edwards going up against Cincinnati, so it is.

0:23:02.760 --> 0:23:05.000
<v Speaker 1>It's a big surprise for those that heard this last segment.

0:23:05.320 --> 0:23:09.440
<v Speaker 1>The Bengals allow one hundred seventy eight total yards to

0:23:09.600 --> 0:23:12.280
<v Speaker 1>running backs on a per game basis, one point four

0:23:12.359 --> 0:23:15.480
<v Speaker 1>touchdowns to running backs on a per game basis, So

0:23:15.680 --> 0:23:18.800
<v Speaker 1>it shouldn't surprise you that backup running backs are getting

0:23:18.840 --> 0:23:24.680
<v Speaker 1>paid when they face the Bengals. These guys where he Moster,

0:23:24.840 --> 0:23:27.600
<v Speaker 1>Jeff Wilson, t J Eldon, Jalen Samuel's, Chase Edmonds, and

0:23:27.680 --> 0:23:31.679
<v Speaker 1>Darryl Henderson, a bunch of backups averaged seventy nine total

0:23:31.760 --> 0:23:35.360
<v Speaker 1>yards and almost one touchdown per game when facing the Bengals.

0:23:35.960 --> 0:23:38.399
<v Speaker 1>If we can get seventy nine yards and almost one

0:23:38.440 --> 0:23:42.040
<v Speaker 1>touchdown out of Gus Edwards, Bang, we're in. Bang. Bang.

0:23:42.240 --> 0:23:46.360
<v Speaker 1>Let's go to the wide receiver position. I got Jamison Crowder,

0:23:46.400 --> 0:23:51.680
<v Speaker 1>who's owned on ESPN right now. With Sam Donald at quarterback,

0:23:51.880 --> 0:23:55.960
<v Speaker 1>Crowder is averaging nine targets per game. Here's the list

0:23:56.000 --> 0:24:00.000
<v Speaker 1>of guys averaging nine targets per game this year. Michael Thomas,

0:24:00.119 --> 0:24:04.879
<v Speaker 1>Cooper Cup, Mike Evans, Tyler Boyd, DeAndre Hopkins, Julian Edelman,

0:24:05.080 --> 0:24:09.959
<v Speaker 1>Keenan Allen, Julio Jones. And those are all wide receiver

0:24:10.080 --> 0:24:12.880
<v Speaker 1>ones and wide receiver twos. Yes, those are well other

0:24:12.880 --> 0:24:15.720
<v Speaker 1>than Tyler Boyd. Yeah, Tyler Boyd's probably a wide receiver

0:24:15.800 --> 0:24:19.560
<v Speaker 1>to most of the time. Alright, still Crowder, So Crowder

0:24:19.640 --> 0:24:22.440
<v Speaker 1>must suck to be in that. I've got many targets

0:24:22.440 --> 0:24:24.199
<v Speaker 1>and do so little with it. I don't know. This

0:24:24.240 --> 0:24:27.240
<v Speaker 1>week he faces a Giant's team that employs DeAndre Baker,

0:24:27.680 --> 0:24:30.560
<v Speaker 1>a rookie slot corner that admitted the other day that

0:24:30.680 --> 0:24:34.960
<v Speaker 1>he still doesn't understand the Giants defensive scheme, which is

0:24:35.040 --> 0:24:39.000
<v Speaker 1>probably why he's allowed a perfect one fifty eight point

0:24:39.080 --> 0:24:42.640
<v Speaker 1>three passer rating in his slot coverage this year. Wow,

0:24:43.320 --> 0:24:46.120
<v Speaker 1>that's really bad. Crowder's gonna go off in this game.

0:24:46.640 --> 0:24:49.200
<v Speaker 1>You might might be right, Uh, Scott, who is you

0:24:49.320 --> 0:24:52.080
<v Speaker 1>take a chance on me? Receiver? I have Mike Asiki

0:24:52.160 --> 0:24:53.919
<v Speaker 1>and I actually think he's got a pretty good schedule

0:24:53.960 --> 0:24:57.520
<v Speaker 1>the rest of the season to pretty okay schedule. Right now,

0:24:57.520 --> 0:25:00.159
<v Speaker 1>he's third in air yards among tight ends over the

0:25:00.240 --> 0:25:02.240
<v Speaker 1>last four years four weeks, which is a pretty good

0:25:02.240 --> 0:25:07.000
<v Speaker 1>indicator for potential production coming. Uh. If it hasn't already

0:25:07.040 --> 0:25:09.560
<v Speaker 1>hit it for everyone except for Mike Williams. Apparently Mike

0:25:09.600 --> 0:25:13.119
<v Speaker 1>Williams does not qualify for that. He's running routes on

0:25:14.080 --> 0:25:16.600
<v Speaker 1>his snaps and he's top fifty yards in three the

0:25:16.640 --> 0:25:19.000
<v Speaker 1>last four, including a score last week. And now Preston

0:25:19.040 --> 0:25:21.240
<v Speaker 1>Williams is out, so there should be a few more

0:25:21.240 --> 0:25:25.600
<v Speaker 1>balls he can get. Ted Gains ownership is at negative

0:25:25.640 --> 0:25:28.720
<v Speaker 1>twenty three. He goes up against the Falcons, that's not

0:25:28.760 --> 0:25:31.639
<v Speaker 1>possible charge, but I I think it is. I think uh,

0:25:31.800 --> 0:25:34.879
<v Speaker 1>I think League has removed him from the database. I

0:25:34.920 --> 0:25:38.439
<v Speaker 1>believe he was my premature speculation two weeks ago. Nicely

0:25:38.480 --> 0:25:40.320
<v Speaker 1>done because here he not here he pops up with

0:25:40.320 --> 0:25:43.479
<v Speaker 1>a great opportunity against the Falcons. Uh Ted Gain on

0:25:43.520 --> 0:25:46.400
<v Speaker 1>the field for about two thirds of the plays um.

0:25:46.440 --> 0:25:50.639
<v Speaker 1>The Falcons have allowed thirty two receptions of twenty or

0:25:50.680 --> 0:25:53.040
<v Speaker 1>more yards. Now, if you know anything about Ted Gain,

0:25:53.160 --> 0:25:57.840
<v Speaker 1>you know the whole deal on him is low quantity

0:25:58.000 --> 0:26:01.679
<v Speaker 1>of receptions. That and he's a deep ball specialist, right,

0:26:01.760 --> 0:26:04.080
<v Speaker 1>so you're just you, We're looking to get one good

0:26:04.240 --> 0:26:07.639
<v Speaker 1>deep reception going to Ted Ginn. The Falcons have also

0:26:07.840 --> 0:26:12.359
<v Speaker 1>allowed the eighth most twenty yard receptions per game the

0:26:12.960 --> 0:26:14.960
<v Speaker 1>uh which is four. By the way, I think you

0:26:15.000 --> 0:26:16.560
<v Speaker 1>can roll the dice on a long hook up here

0:26:16.800 --> 0:26:20.439
<v Speaker 1>with Ted Gin from Drew Brees. Let's let's roll our

0:26:20.480 --> 0:26:22.600
<v Speaker 1>next matchup, which is the Giants and Jets. Matt. We

0:26:22.680 --> 0:26:25.200
<v Speaker 1>just talked about several Giants and Jets over the course

0:26:25.200 --> 0:26:27.480
<v Speaker 1>of this game. Let me knock some out here. Yeah,

0:26:27.600 --> 0:26:29.439
<v Speaker 1>and and if we begin on the Giant side, I

0:26:29.480 --> 0:26:31.680
<v Speaker 1>said it like Daniel Jones as might take a chance

0:26:31.680 --> 0:26:35.240
<v Speaker 1>in the quarterback who among his receiving options do you like? Well,

0:26:35.280 --> 0:26:36.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm just going to clear out all the guys. We

0:26:37.000 --> 0:26:40.399
<v Speaker 1>don't need to talk about kwans An easy a. Daniel

0:26:40.480 --> 0:26:42.480
<v Speaker 1>Jones was charted, just take a chance of met. Quarterbacks

0:26:42.520 --> 0:26:44.640
<v Speaker 1>Sam Donald was might take a chance of met quarterback

0:26:44.680 --> 0:26:46.600
<v Speaker 1>Jamison Crowder was might take a chance of me. Wide

0:26:46.640 --> 0:26:50.000
<v Speaker 1>receiver Evan Ingram and Stirling Shepherd are out. Yes. There,

0:26:50.440 --> 0:26:53.440
<v Speaker 1>that's two thirds of the matchup already done. Onto the

0:26:53.480 --> 0:26:55.679
<v Speaker 1>other guys. You can start Golden Tate. I'm giving him

0:26:55.680 --> 0:26:58.240
<v Speaker 1>a B grade. Tate his average nine targets per game

0:26:58.280 --> 0:27:00.439
<v Speaker 1>over the last three weeks with six or more catches

0:27:00.720 --> 0:27:03.560
<v Speaker 1>in four straight. That's the good volume play. Right there.

0:27:03.920 --> 0:27:06.679
<v Speaker 1>Darius Slayton even gets a C grade. He ran a

0:27:06.760 --> 0:27:10.200
<v Speaker 1>season high forty nine pass routes last week, and outside

0:27:10.200 --> 0:27:13.480
<v Speaker 1>speedsters like Chris Conley, Odell Beckham, and John Brown each

0:27:13.520 --> 0:27:16.919
<v Speaker 1>top two hundred yards and scored against the Jets. Rhett

0:27:16.920 --> 0:27:22.480
<v Speaker 1>Ellison is in the six team by Apocalypse of tight

0:27:22.600 --> 0:27:27.080
<v Speaker 1>ends mentioning right here Evan Ingraham's out. Ellison scored once

0:27:27.119 --> 0:27:29.520
<v Speaker 1>this season. He faces the Jets defense that just gave

0:27:29.600 --> 0:27:33.600
<v Speaker 1>up six catches to nine yards to Mike Gisicky last week,

0:27:33.640 --> 0:27:37.120
<v Speaker 1>So Ellison's in play in a very desperate moment. Uh

0:27:37.240 --> 0:27:39.520
<v Speaker 1>Levy on Bell on the other side, he's getting a B.

0:27:40.560 --> 0:27:42.640
<v Speaker 1>Bell had an m R I on his knee this week.

0:27:42.720 --> 0:27:45.359
<v Speaker 1>It came back clean. He's also dealing with an ankle

0:27:45.400 --> 0:27:47.920
<v Speaker 1>injury that's limited him practice most of the week. He's

0:27:47.960 --> 0:27:50.119
<v Speaker 1>probably going to suit up against the Giants team that

0:27:50.160 --> 0:27:52.920
<v Speaker 1>has allowed four point nine yards per carry two opposing

0:27:52.960 --> 0:27:56.199
<v Speaker 1>backs over their last five games. It's a great matchup,

0:27:56.240 --> 0:27:57.920
<v Speaker 1>but the injury is just taken down to a B.

0:27:59.160 --> 0:28:01.640
<v Speaker 1>Robby Anderson getting to be The Giants have given up

0:28:01.680 --> 0:28:04.800
<v Speaker 1>the second most completions of twenty yards or more this season.

0:28:05.400 --> 0:28:08.199
<v Speaker 1>Half of Donald's throws of twenty yards or more have

0:28:08.320 --> 0:28:11.760
<v Speaker 1>gone to Robby Anderson. No doubt Chris Herndon's last guy.

0:28:11.760 --> 0:28:13.840
<v Speaker 1>I'll mention he's on the bench. He seems to be

0:28:13.880 --> 0:28:16.160
<v Speaker 1>trending the right way with his hamstring injury, and he's

0:28:16.200 --> 0:28:18.840
<v Speaker 1>being dropped in a lot of leagues. Though he might

0:28:18.880 --> 0:28:20.959
<v Speaker 1>be worth stashing if you have tight end troubles, I'm

0:28:21.040 --> 0:28:23.520
<v Speaker 1>leaving him on the bench because it's a hammy, just

0:28:23.560 --> 0:28:25.960
<v Speaker 1>like Adam Theeland last week. Those have a little bit

0:28:25.960 --> 0:28:28.520
<v Speaker 1>of a recurring status on them, and the Jets have

0:28:28.560 --> 0:28:31.320
<v Speaker 1>treated him with kid gloves since returning from suspension. So

0:28:31.520 --> 0:28:33.760
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna play wait and see with Chris Herndon. All right,

0:28:33.840 --> 0:28:36.959
<v Speaker 1>that sounds good. Did you know fan ball has daily

0:28:37.160 --> 0:28:41.160
<v Speaker 1>fantasy auctions. Yes, they're great. They are great. If you

0:28:41.280 --> 0:28:43.520
<v Speaker 1>love auctioning in the preseason, you're gonna love auctioning for

0:28:43.560 --> 0:28:46.800
<v Speaker 1>this weekend's games. Fanball auctions. They're fast paced, their frantic,

0:28:46.880 --> 0:28:51.280
<v Speaker 1>incredibly fun. As you've been on four players simultaneously against

0:28:51.280 --> 0:28:53.880
<v Speaker 1>your real life opponents. You can even win all the

0:28:53.920 --> 0:28:56.400
<v Speaker 1>money the fan ball auctions. But I played well if

0:28:56.440 --> 0:28:59.000
<v Speaker 1>I could play fanball auctions for I can't because you know,

0:28:59.200 --> 0:29:00.960
<v Speaker 1>I worked for the company and all if I could

0:29:01.240 --> 0:29:04.160
<v Speaker 1>you just plakes are fun. They're just so much fun.

0:29:07.640 --> 0:29:10.719
<v Speaker 1>we will break down more matchups, including Falcons and Saints.

0:29:10.720 --> 0:29:13.400
<v Speaker 1>Matt Ryan returns. We'll tell you what to expect from

0:29:13.440 --> 0:29:16.840
<v Speaker 1>the Falcons passing game as they take on a tricky

0:29:16.960 --> 0:29:40.120
<v Speaker 1>Saints secondary. When we come back. You are listening to

0:29:40.160 --> 0:29:42.800

0:29:42.840 --> 0:29:45.960
<v Speaker 1>co host there, Matt Harrison and Scott Fish from famball

0:29:46.000 --> 0:29:47.400
<v Speaker 1>dot Com. You can hear us over the year on

0:29:47.440 --> 0:29:49.920
<v Speaker 1>many stations around the country, and this show is also

0:29:49.920 --> 0:29:53.600
<v Speaker 1>a podcast available every Friday on all the major podcasting platforms,

0:29:53.840 --> 0:29:57.320
<v Speaker 1>including the number one destination for podcasts, the I Heart

0:29:57.440 --> 0:30:03.360
<v Speaker 1>Radio app. Falcons take on the Saints. This is a

0:30:03.400 --> 0:30:05.080
<v Speaker 1>game in which Matt Ryan returns. We don't have to

0:30:05.120 --> 0:30:07.240
<v Speaker 1>look at Matt shob again, and maybe that might be

0:30:07.240 --> 0:30:09.120
<v Speaker 1>the last time we'll see Matt job for a career.

0:30:09.160 --> 0:30:12.240
<v Speaker 1>Perhaps the Falcons passed the ball more than any other

0:30:12.360 --> 0:30:16.200
<v Speaker 1>team forty three times per game, and because the Saints

0:30:16.240 --> 0:30:19.280
<v Speaker 1>run defense is so good, they're seeing the third fewest rushes,

0:30:19.720 --> 0:30:23.720
<v Speaker 1>so that equates to guaranteed volume for Matt Ryan and

0:30:23.840 --> 0:30:27.080
<v Speaker 1>that many passes should yield good results for him. Ryan

0:30:27.160 --> 0:30:29.360
<v Speaker 1>is top three yards in every game but one. He's

0:30:29.360 --> 0:30:31.560
<v Speaker 1>thrown multiple touchdowns in every game but two, and I

0:30:31.600 --> 0:30:34.240
<v Speaker 1>see all of those things happening here. I've got an

0:30:34.320 --> 0:30:36.560
<v Speaker 1>A grade on Matt Ryan, and I've got an eight

0:30:36.640 --> 0:30:41.160
<v Speaker 1>grade on his two top receiving targets. Julio Jones and

0:30:41.400 --> 0:30:44.520
<v Speaker 1>Austin Hooper are one of the great success stories of

0:30:44.600 --> 0:30:48.000
<v Speaker 1>this year. Let's start with Julio Jones. Jones brings his

0:30:48.280 --> 0:30:51.240
<v Speaker 1>a game against the division rival Saints, notching over ninety

0:30:51.280 --> 0:30:54.920
<v Speaker 1>yards in nine of the team's last ten meetings. Between

0:30:54.960 --> 0:30:57.720
<v Speaker 1>these two, Jones will likely be followed by shutdown corner

0:30:57.760 --> 0:31:00.720
<v Speaker 1>mark Shawn Lattimore. Over the last five games, Lattimore is

0:31:00.720 --> 0:31:02.840
<v Speaker 1>allowing just twenty seven yards per game and his coverage

0:31:02.880 --> 0:31:04.720
<v Speaker 1>that worries me a bit, But we have seen Lattimore

0:31:05.360 --> 0:31:08.720
<v Speaker 1>post some bad slip up games and Lulu Jones is

0:31:08.720 --> 0:31:10.640
<v Speaker 1>too good to bench, so he remains in A grade.

0:31:10.880 --> 0:31:13.600
<v Speaker 1>Austin Hooper's Fantasy Football's highest scoring tight end, and he's

0:31:13.640 --> 0:31:16.040
<v Speaker 1>now scored in three consecutive games while hauling in at

0:31:16.120 --> 0:31:19.200
<v Speaker 1>least six catches in five of the last six, and

0:31:19.320 --> 0:31:22.280
<v Speaker 1>he's basically matchup proof at this point. Although the Saints

0:31:22.280 --> 0:31:24.520
<v Speaker 1>have defended the tight end well as evidence by only

0:31:24.520 --> 0:31:27.520
<v Speaker 1>one touchdown allowed to the position, they haven't seen anybody

0:31:27.520 --> 0:31:29.680
<v Speaker 1>close to Hooper's skill. They faced a bunch of just

0:31:29.920 --> 0:31:33.120
<v Speaker 1>soft tight ends this year, so Hooper remains in a

0:31:33.160 --> 0:31:36.920
<v Speaker 1>Calvin Ridley sticking with the passing game. In his two

0:31:36.920 --> 0:31:41.360
<v Speaker 1>meetings against the Saints, he's posted lines of one hundred

0:31:41.480 --> 0:31:44.880
<v Speaker 1>forties six yards and three touchdowns, and then he had

0:31:44.920 --> 0:31:48.440
<v Speaker 1>an eight catch ninety three yard game with a touchdown.

0:31:48.880 --> 0:31:51.560
<v Speaker 1>I have reasonablyive that's pretty good history right there for

0:31:51.640 --> 0:31:54.360
<v Speaker 1>Calvin Ridley over the last three games. The Saints past

0:31:54.440 --> 0:31:56.960
<v Speaker 1>events has been just average, and that was against below

0:31:57.000 --> 0:31:59.720
<v Speaker 1>average passers like Gardner, Minshew and and Mr Rbiski and

0:31:59.760 --> 0:32:03.800
<v Speaker 1>Kyle or Murray Ridley stod should see mostly Eli Apple,

0:32:04.120 --> 0:32:06.960
<v Speaker 1>who is allowing a passer rating of one seven in

0:32:07.120 --> 0:32:09.520
<v Speaker 1>his coverage, and that brings us to them to the

0:32:09.560 --> 0:32:12.800
<v Speaker 1>running game. Devant to Freeman averaging a career low three

0:32:12.800 --> 0:32:15.200
<v Speaker 1>point four yards per carry, It's been a dismal season

0:32:15.240 --> 0:32:18.560
<v Speaker 1>for him and the Saints, allowing the third least yards

0:32:18.600 --> 0:32:22.360
<v Speaker 1>per carry over the last three games. I almost had

0:32:22.360 --> 0:32:25.720
<v Speaker 1>a bench grade on Freeman, but in part because Edo

0:32:25.760 --> 0:32:29.760
<v Speaker 1>Smith is out, I decided I'm gonna go I'm gonna

0:32:29.800 --> 0:32:33.520
<v Speaker 1>go see grade on Freeman. And maybe you know he's

0:32:33.520 --> 0:32:37.360
<v Speaker 1>bailed out fantasy owners with some solid receiving games. Catch

0:32:37.400 --> 0:32:39.680
<v Speaker 1>here is New Orleans hasn't allowed to receiving touchdown to

0:32:39.760 --> 0:32:41.720
<v Speaker 1>running backs all year, So I don't know that he

0:32:41.720 --> 0:32:44.560
<v Speaker 1>helps that way either. It's just because Freeman is gonna

0:32:44.560 --> 0:32:46.040
<v Speaker 1>get so much work that I've got a C grade

0:32:46.040 --> 0:32:48.120
<v Speaker 1>on him. But it's it's it was close on the

0:32:48.160 --> 0:32:50.480
<v Speaker 1>Atlanta side. Did you even give a thought to a

0:32:50.480 --> 0:32:54.000
<v Speaker 1>C grade for wrestler Gauge his nine targets last week?

0:32:54.400 --> 0:33:00.320
<v Speaker 1>To be honest, it's a shop connection shop to hustle.

0:33:00.400 --> 0:33:03.520
<v Speaker 1>That's everybody knows. That's yeah, that that's that's a connection

0:33:03.560 --> 0:33:08.880
<v Speaker 1>that it's just now that's the news gone. Maybe he's

0:33:08.880 --> 0:33:11.240
<v Speaker 1>feeling that. I just don't know. I wouldn't go there,

0:33:11.240 --> 0:33:13.440
<v Speaker 1>but if you want to, okay, uh, let's go to

0:33:13.480 --> 0:33:17.040
<v Speaker 1>the saint side. Drew Brees and Michael Thomas are obvious

0:33:17.080 --> 0:33:19.840
<v Speaker 1>a's over the last five weeks without Kian O'Neill, the

0:33:19.840 --> 0:33:23.040
<v Speaker 1>Falcons are giving up two hundred ninety yards and three

0:33:23.080 --> 0:33:26.560
<v Speaker 1>touchdowns per game through the air Breeze absolutely hammered the

0:33:26.600 --> 0:33:29.720
<v Speaker 1>Falcons last year with nine touchdowns in the two games.

0:33:30.200 --> 0:33:35.520
<v Speaker 1>Nine touchdowns in two games nine times nine Yeah, how

0:33:35.560 --> 0:33:41.320
<v Speaker 1>many times it is? Nine times? Thomas in these eight

0:33:41.360 --> 0:33:47.960
<v Speaker 1>games against the Falcons seventy three receptions. He's currently on

0:33:48.040 --> 0:33:51.400
<v Speaker 1>pace to break Marvin Harrison's single season reception record, so

0:33:51.440 --> 0:33:54.440
<v Speaker 1>obviously starts there too. Uh, let's go do the well.

0:33:54.480 --> 0:33:55.800
<v Speaker 1>A couple of the guys in the passing game, Ted

0:33:55.800 --> 0:33:58.480
<v Speaker 1>Guinness might take a chance. I mean wide receiver Jared

0:33:58.560 --> 0:34:02.200
<v Speaker 1>Cook is back. He's most presumed to be mostly, if

0:34:02.240 --> 0:34:05.080
<v Speaker 1>not entirely healthy. He had scored in two straight games

0:34:05.120 --> 0:34:07.840
<v Speaker 1>prior to getting hurt, and he matches up with Atlanta,

0:34:07.840 --> 0:34:11.719
<v Speaker 1>who's allowed four tight end touchdowns in the last four weeks.

0:34:11.880 --> 0:34:14.120
<v Speaker 1>So there's an opportunity for Cook to get on the

0:34:14.160 --> 0:34:15.719
<v Speaker 1>board here with a C grade. Let's go to the

0:34:15.800 --> 0:34:18.759
<v Speaker 1>running game. I think Lutavius Murray has earned the right

0:34:18.800 --> 0:34:22.400
<v Speaker 1>to see a continued bigger role, Maybe not quite what

0:34:22.440 --> 0:34:24.759
<v Speaker 1>we saw with mark Ingram in the past, but more

0:34:24.760 --> 0:34:27.000
<v Speaker 1>than he was getting before. Alvin Kamara got hurt. It

0:34:27.000 --> 0:34:32.200
<v Speaker 1>sounds like Alvin Kamara thinks so too. He does before exactly.

0:34:32.719 --> 0:34:35.480
<v Speaker 1>Um Falcons have a sneaky good run defense, so giving

0:34:35.520 --> 0:34:38.319
<v Speaker 1>up four yards per carry, uh Mury doesn't catch very much,

0:34:38.360 --> 0:34:40.560
<v Speaker 1>mark Ingram could catch. Murray really isn't much of a

0:34:40.560 --> 0:34:42.920
<v Speaker 1>pass catcher. So just to see grade on Murray, but

0:34:42.920 --> 0:34:45.600
<v Speaker 1>he is startable. Then there's then there's Alvin Kamara, so

0:34:45.680 --> 0:34:50.080
<v Speaker 1>let's we'll wrap up on him. He's never scored against Atlanta,

0:34:50.160 --> 0:34:52.960
<v Speaker 1>but he does everything else he's over his career. His

0:34:53.040 --> 0:34:57.200
<v Speaker 1>average game is one hundred twenty six total yards, eight catches.

0:34:57.840 --> 0:35:00.239
<v Speaker 1>The Falcons run defense is pretty good. Only one is

0:35:00.320 --> 0:35:02.640
<v Speaker 1>hit one hundred yards and by the way, that was

0:35:02.680 --> 0:35:05.200
<v Speaker 1>Derrick Henry and it took him twenty seven carries to

0:35:05.200 --> 0:35:07.480
<v Speaker 1>get to one hundred yards. My mind, that's still a

0:35:07.560 --> 0:35:11.280
<v Speaker 1>fail of a game. They've handled Todd Gurley and David

0:35:11.320 --> 0:35:14.040
<v Speaker 1>Johnson on the ground recently, although both guys scored through

0:35:14.080 --> 0:35:17.360
<v Speaker 1>the air, and that's part of why I like Alvin

0:35:17.400 --> 0:35:20.799
<v Speaker 1>Kamaron this one. The Falcons have allowed three receiving touchdowns

0:35:20.800 --> 0:35:23.840
<v Speaker 1>to running backs over the last three games, so I

0:35:23.880 --> 0:35:26.520
<v Speaker 1>think being the dual threat that he is Kimara b

0:35:26.719 --> 0:35:29.960
<v Speaker 1>Grade and that wraps up Falcon Saints. Let's go to

0:35:30.000 --> 0:35:34.560
<v Speaker 1>Panthers at Packers Scott For the Panthers, I think it's

0:35:34.560 --> 0:35:37.120
<v Speaker 1>safe to say everybody knows to do with Christian McCaffrey.

0:35:37.160 --> 0:35:38.640
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna be the other guys that are gonna be

0:35:38.680 --> 0:35:41.160
<v Speaker 1>trickier calls. Oh no, I needed to spend two minutes,

0:35:43.880 --> 0:35:45.840
<v Speaker 1>but I just did that with Michael Thomas. It was

0:35:45.880 --> 0:35:51.040
<v Speaker 1>just an indulgence. Let's pass uh for Ellen. I have

0:35:51.120 --> 0:35:53.959
<v Speaker 1>him on the bench for the Panthers. In the last

0:35:53.960 --> 0:35:56.640
<v Speaker 1>three weeks, the Packers have allowed multiple touchdowns to Derek

0:35:56.680 --> 0:36:01.040
<v Speaker 1>Carr and Matt Moore, but Allen hasn't top two and

0:36:01.120 --> 0:36:04.160
<v Speaker 1>thirty two yards since his first game against Arizona and

0:36:04.239 --> 0:36:07.520
<v Speaker 1>has just five touchdowns in the last five games. I

0:36:07.560 --> 0:36:09.759
<v Speaker 1>don't know that he's the air parent's. He's gonna have

0:36:09.760 --> 0:36:11.600
<v Speaker 1>to step it up more, but I'm benching him here.

0:36:12.080 --> 0:36:14.359
<v Speaker 1>I am starting more though he is still seeing a

0:36:14.400 --> 0:36:17.719
<v Speaker 1>ton of targets. He's averaging just under ten targets per

0:36:17.840 --> 0:36:20.799
<v Speaker 1>game over the last four at least five catches in

0:36:20.920 --> 0:36:23.560
<v Speaker 1>each of those and uh seventy three or more yards,

0:36:23.560 --> 0:36:26.560
<v Speaker 1>and three of those he's He's a safe, consistent be

0:36:26.840 --> 0:36:31.080
<v Speaker 1>option is what he is right now. Curtis Samuel Uh,

0:36:31.160 --> 0:36:33.320
<v Speaker 1>he gets less volume, but he scored in three of

0:36:33.840 --> 0:36:36.040
<v Speaker 1>Alan six starts, and I believe he scored an Allen

0:36:36.080 --> 0:36:38.560
<v Speaker 1>start last year too, so there seems to be some

0:36:38.640 --> 0:36:40.399
<v Speaker 1>kind of connection there, and he's the one that can

0:36:40.400 --> 0:36:43.120
<v Speaker 1>get deep. He's a great route runner. Over the last

0:36:43.160 --> 0:36:45.760
<v Speaker 1>five games, the Packers are allowing the fourth most yards

0:36:45.800 --> 0:36:48.000
<v Speaker 1>to receivers, so I'm giving him a secrete somehow. Allen

0:36:48.080 --> 0:36:50.360
<v Speaker 1>on the bench, but I'm starting both of those guys.

0:36:51.320 --> 0:36:54.600
<v Speaker 1>I am betching Olsen though, big game with Allen against

0:36:54.600 --> 0:36:57.960
<v Speaker 1>Arizona because Arizona does that, they allow that. But since

0:36:58.000 --> 0:37:01.200
<v Speaker 1>then Greg Olsen is only average twenty two yards per

0:37:01.239 --> 0:37:04.840
<v Speaker 1>game over the last five. Not good. On the other side,

0:37:04.920 --> 0:37:07.319
<v Speaker 1>Aaron Rodgers is getting an a. I know he got

0:37:07.320 --> 0:37:10.360
<v Speaker 1>derailed by the Chargers from his three game role that

0:37:10.440 --> 0:37:13.600
<v Speaker 1>had him in m v P talks. He should powered spats.

0:37:13.640 --> 0:37:17.120
<v Speaker 1>He bounce back here against the Panther's team who has

0:37:17.160 --> 0:37:21.719
<v Speaker 1>allowed three thirty plus yards to Minshew Winston and Tannehill

0:37:21.800 --> 0:37:25.399
<v Speaker 1>in three last four weeks. Uh. Davante Adams off game

0:37:25.400 --> 0:37:28.800
<v Speaker 1>against the Chargers just like Rogers, but he did see

0:37:28.840 --> 0:37:34.239
<v Speaker 1>eleven targets and no other receivers are stepping up for

0:37:34.280 --> 0:37:36.279
<v Speaker 1>the Packers, so I'm giving him an A grade here.

0:37:36.320 --> 0:37:39.800
<v Speaker 1>They even with James Bradberry. Even with Bradberry, they allowed

0:37:39.800 --> 0:37:42.439
<v Speaker 1>Giant games to Godwin, to Evans, to Chart all within

0:37:42.480 --> 0:37:46.040
<v Speaker 1>the last few weeks as well. Um, I'm not quite

0:37:46.080 --> 0:37:49.480
<v Speaker 1>as optimistic. You can give him a B. I'll give it.

0:37:49.480 --> 0:37:51.960
<v Speaker 1>I'll give it an A minus. Then, oh you quiet

0:37:53.360 --> 0:37:55.839
<v Speaker 1>Graham on the bench. It's been twenty games since Graham

0:37:55.920 --> 0:37:59.480
<v Speaker 1>last top sixty five yards. Carolina's top ten against tight ends.

0:37:59.480 --> 0:38:01.960
<v Speaker 1>I'll catch where there's a lot of play. Here is

0:38:02.000 --> 0:38:04.400
<v Speaker 1>the run game. Over the last five weeks. The Panthers

0:38:04.400 --> 0:38:07.160
<v Speaker 1>are the worst team in the NFL against fantasy running

0:38:07.200 --> 0:38:11.360
<v Speaker 1>back over the last five weeks, so Aaron Jones gets

0:38:11.360 --> 0:38:13.640
<v Speaker 1>an A. Over the last three weeks, the Panthers are

0:38:13.640 --> 0:38:17.160
<v Speaker 1>allowing the most rushing yards, most total yards, most rushing touchdowns,

0:38:17.200 --> 0:38:19.839
<v Speaker 1>and five point eight yards per garry. And they didn't

0:38:19.840 --> 0:38:22.200
<v Speaker 1>the Panthers didn't even have to face Christie McCaffrey for

0:38:22.200 --> 0:38:25.960
<v Speaker 1>those numbers. So Aaron Jones and A and Williams is

0:38:25.960 --> 0:38:28.280
<v Speaker 1>game to see because he's caught at least four passes

0:38:28.280 --> 0:38:31.160
<v Speaker 1>each the last four games and caught a receiving touchdown

0:38:31.280 --> 0:38:34.319
<v Speaker 1>that last four weeks. Yes, yeah, so c grade there.

0:38:34.719 --> 0:38:37.799
<v Speaker 1>He might he might get He might be better than yeah,

0:38:37.880 --> 0:38:40.680
<v Speaker 1>Jamal Williams could be. Yeah. Uh, you know, I didn't

0:38:40.680 --> 0:38:43.360
<v Speaker 1>think he was a very good runner prior to really

0:38:43.400 --> 0:38:46.120
<v Speaker 1>this year. But I think he's just playing better than.

0:38:46.160 --> 0:38:49.600
<v Speaker 1>We had those arguments with with another another coworker, me

0:38:49.600 --> 0:38:52.040
<v Speaker 1>and you were all Aaron Jones, all Aaron Jones, and

0:38:52.040 --> 0:38:54.160
<v Speaker 1>Aaron Jones has been great. Yeah, let's go to our

0:38:54.160 --> 0:38:57.320
<v Speaker 1>final matchup of this particular segment, which is the Lions

0:38:57.400 --> 0:39:00.360
<v Speaker 1>taking on the Bears. Matt for the Lions to running

0:39:00.400 --> 0:39:02.759
<v Speaker 1>game has been a disaster. Although you like j D

0:39:02.880 --> 0:39:05.640
<v Speaker 1>mckissic super here. He already talked about that orange in

0:39:05.640 --> 0:39:08.040
<v Speaker 1>the passing game. But what do you think about Ty Johnson?

0:39:08.080 --> 0:39:11.799
<v Speaker 1>Maybe we start there, is he's startable in your mind? Nope, Nope,

0:39:11.960 --> 0:39:14.040
<v Speaker 1>he's on the bench three point seven yards per carry

0:39:14.040 --> 0:39:16.360
<v Speaker 1>on the ground for the Bears. Like I mentioned before,

0:39:16.440 --> 0:39:19.480
<v Speaker 1>he's just on the bench. Um, let's talk about Matthew Stafford,

0:39:19.480 --> 0:39:21.760
<v Speaker 1>who's been great, but he has been awesome. He's thrown

0:39:21.760 --> 0:39:24.120
<v Speaker 1>for more than three hundred yards in three straight games,

0:39:24.120 --> 0:39:28.480
<v Speaker 1>with ten touchdown passes in that span. However, Stafford hasn't

0:39:28.480 --> 0:39:31.000
<v Speaker 1>thrown for three hundred yards against the Bears since October

0:39:31.040 --> 0:39:34.480
<v Speaker 1>of and he hasn't thrown for three hundred yards in

0:39:34.560 --> 0:39:39.279
<v Speaker 1>Chicago since November of So if you if you add

0:39:39.320 --> 0:39:42.319
<v Speaker 1>up Stafford's last seven starts against the Bears, that's how

0:39:42.360 --> 0:39:43.680
<v Speaker 1>far back you've got to go to get to the

0:39:43.680 --> 0:39:45.920
<v Speaker 1>ten touchdowns that he's thrown in the last three weeks.

0:39:46.160 --> 0:39:48.720
<v Speaker 1>He hasn't had a good history against the Bears. Plus,

0:39:48.800 --> 0:39:51.560
<v Speaker 1>only Case Keenum has thrown for three hundred yards against

0:39:51.600 --> 0:39:54.880
<v Speaker 1>the Bears this season, while only Keenum and Teddy Bridgewater

0:39:54.920 --> 0:39:58.239
<v Speaker 1>have thrown for multiple scores. And this just in Stafford

0:39:58.320 --> 0:40:04.000
<v Speaker 1>is not a former Viking quarterback yet yet he has

0:40:04.040 --> 0:40:06.840
<v Speaker 1>to become a current Viking quarterback. To become a former

0:40:06.920 --> 0:40:11.640
<v Speaker 1>Viking quarterback never gonna work out. I'm only given Stafford

0:40:11.640 --> 0:40:14.280
<v Speaker 1>a C grade. Kenny Golladay, I'm giving a B. Marvin

0:40:14.360 --> 0:40:16.920
<v Speaker 1>Jones is getting a C. Golladay isn't afraid of the Bears,

0:40:16.920 --> 0:40:18.799
<v Speaker 1>and the two meetings last year he had five for

0:40:18.920 --> 0:40:21.680
<v Speaker 1>nine and one six for seventy eight and a score

0:40:21.680 --> 0:40:24.480
<v Speaker 1>and the other. He also leads the NFL in targets

0:40:24.520 --> 0:40:28.360
<v Speaker 1>inside the ten yard line. That's a good stat. Jones

0:40:28.400 --> 0:40:31.319
<v Speaker 1>is in place simply because the Lions have absolutely given

0:40:31.400 --> 0:40:33.560
<v Speaker 1>up on the running game due to injury um The

0:40:33.640 --> 0:40:37.200
<v Speaker 1>Lions only have had fifteen rushing attempts last week and

0:40:37.280 --> 0:40:40.400
<v Speaker 1>sixteen the week before, and since carry on Johnson's injury,

0:40:40.640 --> 0:40:43.600
<v Speaker 1>Jones is averaging nine targets per game. So there we go.

0:40:44.320 --> 0:40:46.720
<v Speaker 1>The matchup is tough against the Bears. They're only allowing

0:40:46.800 --> 0:40:49.399
<v Speaker 1>nine receptions per game to the wide receiver position over

0:40:49.400 --> 0:40:51.840
<v Speaker 1>the last four games and no touchdowns during that span.

0:40:52.040 --> 0:40:54.239
<v Speaker 1>It's a tough matchup, but it's a volume play. I

0:40:54.239 --> 0:40:57.759
<v Speaker 1>think uh t J. Hockenson. I'm giving a B two.

0:41:01.080 --> 0:41:03.399
<v Speaker 1>He was dropped in many leagues, were in the dart

0:41:03.480 --> 0:41:06.200
<v Speaker 1>throw in uh in the tight end apocalypse. Here the

0:41:06.239 --> 0:41:09.120
<v Speaker 1>Bears have allowed the fourth most receptions and the third

0:41:09.160 --> 0:41:12.000
<v Speaker 1>most yards to the tight end position. That includes an

0:41:12.000 --> 0:41:15.080
<v Speaker 1>eighty seven yard game or eighty seven yards per game

0:41:15.120 --> 0:41:17.239
<v Speaker 1>to the position over the last five weeks. And he's

0:41:17.239 --> 0:41:18.960
<v Speaker 1>the only guy who catches a pass there. Yeah, he's

0:41:18.960 --> 0:41:20.279
<v Speaker 1>the only guy in the at one point, he got

0:41:20.360 --> 0:41:22.680
<v Speaker 1>knocked out a last week's game, and I'm like, oh, geez,

0:41:22.719 --> 0:41:25.439
<v Speaker 1>it looked like a concussion. I think he just got

0:41:25.520 --> 0:41:28.120
<v Speaker 1>hit in the jewels. All right. On the bear side,

0:41:28.400 --> 0:41:32.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm giving David Montgomery and a grade. He's averaging twenty

0:41:32.560 --> 0:41:34.840
<v Speaker 1>four touches per game over the last two weeks. Is

0:41:35.440 --> 0:41:39.040
<v Speaker 1>Matt Naggy has either recommitted to the run or committed

0:41:39.320 --> 0:41:47.279
<v Speaker 1>to taking the ball out of the hands of I

0:41:47.320 --> 0:41:49.040
<v Speaker 1>gotta I got a fun note for you for David

0:41:49.040 --> 0:41:52.080
<v Speaker 1>Montgomery for this week. Okay, yeah, yeah. Justin Rodgers of

0:41:52.160 --> 0:41:55.839
<v Speaker 1>the Detroit News has reported that the Lions top four

0:41:55.880 --> 0:41:58.919
<v Speaker 1>defensive tackles and their top two guards are either less

0:41:59.000 --> 0:42:03.200
<v Speaker 1>listed as questionable or out for this game. Um, that

0:42:03.239 --> 0:42:05.800
<v Speaker 1>doesn't help, because the Lions are the worst run defense

0:42:05.840 --> 0:42:08.960
<v Speaker 1>in the league. They're allowing a hundred and thirty two

0:42:09.040 --> 0:42:11.759
<v Speaker 1>yards per game over their last four and allowing more

0:42:11.760 --> 0:42:14.120
<v Speaker 1>than a rushing touchdown per game to the position They're

0:42:14.120 --> 0:42:18.080
<v Speaker 1>going to run David Montgomery all day. Now, the passing game,

0:42:18.120 --> 0:42:21.840
<v Speaker 1>this is controversial. Yes, it's a bench grade for the

0:42:21.880 --> 0:42:26.960
<v Speaker 1>whole passing game, the whole thing. Now, this is legitimately

0:42:27.960 --> 0:42:31.680
<v Speaker 1>a great matchup for the Bears passing game. It is,

0:42:32.120 --> 0:42:35.839
<v Speaker 1>but so was Philadelphia last week. And in that game,

0:42:35.960 --> 0:42:40.359
<v Speaker 1>true Bisky only attempted twenty one throws, only completed ten

0:42:41.080 --> 0:42:44.520
<v Speaker 1>for twenty five yards. And I repeat last week was

0:42:44.640 --> 0:42:48.239
<v Speaker 1>also a really great matchup. Well, one key difference here

0:42:48.440 --> 0:42:51.759
<v Speaker 1>is Philadelphia can rush the quarterback right. They've got the

0:42:51.840 --> 0:42:54.680
<v Speaker 1>really good defensive front four. The Lions might be short

0:42:54.719 --> 0:42:57.080
<v Speaker 1>every starter for Pete's sake on their defensive line. One

0:42:57.160 --> 0:43:07.239
<v Speaker 1>key similarity is sad trombone ski. Well, speaking of happy

0:43:07.280 --> 0:43:10.040
<v Speaker 1>trombone skis, it was a happy trombone ski last year

0:43:10.040 --> 0:43:13.400
<v Speaker 1>when these two uh two met. Trubisky and Allen Robinson

0:43:13.440 --> 0:43:15.600
<v Speaker 1>combined for a huge game against the Lions last year

0:43:15.640 --> 0:43:19.200
<v Speaker 1>where Robinson had six for one three and two Trubisky

0:43:19.320 --> 0:43:22.200
<v Speaker 1>three five yards and three scores. But that's eons ago.

0:43:22.280 --> 0:43:25.319
<v Speaker 1>I know. I was looking at the stats earlier this week.

0:43:25.480 --> 0:43:28.160
<v Speaker 1>Mitch Rubisky put up three fifty five against the Lions

0:43:28.239 --> 0:43:30.359
<v Speaker 1>last year and three fifteen against the Lions last year.

0:43:30.360 --> 0:43:34.480
<v Speaker 1>What I'm saying to myself, Mitch Robinsky ever did that? Yeah?

0:43:34.480 --> 0:43:36.160
<v Speaker 1>How much worse he's got? That? Seems like it's a

0:43:36.160 --> 0:43:39.080
<v Speaker 1>different person now. He's reportedly asking for the TVs to

0:43:39.120 --> 0:43:41.879
<v Speaker 1>be turned off around the clubhouse in Chicago. He doesn't

0:43:41.880 --> 0:43:45.080
<v Speaker 1>want to see the criticism anymore. He's shaken. There's a

0:43:45.120 --> 0:43:48.000
<v Speaker 1>there's a better chance that Chase Daniel throws for two

0:43:48.400 --> 0:43:52.080
<v Speaker 1>yards in this game. Five six game stretch was a

0:43:52.080 --> 0:43:55.879
<v Speaker 1>complete anonymal anomally for his career. I guess six team

0:43:55.920 --> 0:44:02.600
<v Speaker 1>games under two yards passing. That's it's unbelievable. What's happened

0:44:02.600 --> 0:44:04.640
<v Speaker 1>with Mr r Whisky. I keep thinking that they're gonna

0:44:04.640 --> 0:44:07.960
<v Speaker 1>bench him, my my friends in Chicago media. I'll tell me, Nope,

0:44:07.960 --> 0:44:09.839
<v Speaker 1>they're sticking with them. They're gonna play this thing out

0:44:09.840 --> 0:44:12.200
<v Speaker 1>to the better. Is it Ryan Pace drafted and moved

0:44:12.239 --> 0:44:14.439
<v Speaker 1>up for that kind of thing? Come me up next.

0:44:14.560 --> 0:44:17.080
<v Speaker 1>We'll answer three tough questions. You can play along. Try

0:44:17.120 --> 0:44:20.200
<v Speaker 1>to go perfect three and oh against our panel of

0:44:20.320 --> 0:44:25.520
<v Speaker 1>experts upon whom I will pepper three tough questions. See

0:44:25.520 --> 0:44:27.879
<v Speaker 1>if you can go three and o on Fantasy Football Weekly.

0:44:27.920 --> 0:44:42.919
<v Speaker 1>When we come back, It's Fantasy Football Weekly on Paul

0:44:42.960 --> 0:44:46.760
<v Speaker 1>Charchi and my co host Scott Fish and Matt Harrison. Boys,

0:44:46.960 --> 0:44:50.040
<v Speaker 1>let's jump into the grinder with three tough questions. Listeners.

0:44:50.080 --> 0:44:51.600
<v Speaker 1>We encourage you to play along see if you can

0:44:51.600 --> 0:44:54.600
<v Speaker 1>get the answers correct. Tough question number one for the

0:44:54.640 --> 0:44:56.960
<v Speaker 1>rest of the year. Will Kareem Haunt to be a

0:44:57.120 --> 0:45:02.280
<v Speaker 1>running back? One running back to flex or bench? Matt

0:45:03.360 --> 0:45:05.560
<v Speaker 1>Um I would like to say it's worth noting that

0:45:05.680 --> 0:45:09.680
<v Speaker 1>Nick Chubb is good, uh and that doesn't mean Kareem

0:45:09.719 --> 0:45:12.120
<v Speaker 1>Hunt can't be. But it's still hard to take that

0:45:12.200 --> 0:45:14.760
<v Speaker 1>one bright spot on their offense out of the game.

0:45:15.080 --> 0:45:17.640
<v Speaker 1>There has been a fumble issue though still Chubb is

0:45:17.640 --> 0:45:20.239
<v Speaker 1>at exactly twenty rushing attempts and four of his last

0:45:20.320 --> 0:45:23.120
<v Speaker 1>five games. So here's what I'm gonna do. Let's give

0:45:23.200 --> 0:45:26.120
<v Speaker 1>Hunt all of the non Chubb touches at running back,

0:45:26.160 --> 0:45:28.680
<v Speaker 1>which currently sits at four per game, and then will

0:45:28.680 --> 0:45:33.320
<v Speaker 1>slice off to Chubb's touches just for a high upside sake.

0:45:33.560 --> 0:45:37.520
<v Speaker 1>That's nine touches per game for Hunt. That's not enough. Plus,

0:45:37.600 --> 0:45:40.640
<v Speaker 1>the Cleveland running back schedule is not super favorable. They've

0:45:40.680 --> 0:45:43.160
<v Speaker 1>got Miami and Since on the schedule, which are good,

0:45:43.239 --> 0:45:46.919
<v Speaker 1>but they have stoppers in Pittsburgh twice, Buffalo this week

0:45:46.960 --> 0:45:51.080
<v Speaker 1>who's okay, and Baltimore and the Fantasy championship week. In

0:45:51.120 --> 0:45:53.839
<v Speaker 1>my mind, that's four bench grades maybe two or three flex.

0:45:53.920 --> 0:45:57.240
<v Speaker 1>So he's a bench player bench Okay, I I actually

0:45:57.239 --> 0:46:00.200
<v Speaker 1>put flex, but I had the same as you. I

0:46:00.239 --> 0:46:04.960
<v Speaker 1>had four bench grades and three flex flex grades. But

0:46:04.960 --> 0:46:09.920
<v Speaker 1>but I like the flex plays so much that they

0:46:09.920 --> 0:46:13.640
<v Speaker 1>outweighed the four potential bench plays. Kitchens is just the

0:46:13.719 --> 0:46:15.600
<v Speaker 1>kind of guy that would take Chuck off the field.

0:46:15.640 --> 0:46:17.400
<v Speaker 1>He took him off the field for Hilliard on a

0:46:17.440 --> 0:46:20.919
<v Speaker 1>third and one last week. He's just the type they'll

0:46:20.960 --> 0:46:23.480
<v Speaker 1>do something like that. But I did have I did

0:46:23.520 --> 0:46:25.520
<v Speaker 1>have a flex grade just because I really like those

0:46:25.520 --> 0:46:29.320
<v Speaker 1>three flexes. Alright, So Nick Chubb's previous backup, as you mentioned,

0:46:29.480 --> 0:46:32.240
<v Speaker 1>Dontrell Hilliard the last two weeks, was on the field

0:46:32.320 --> 0:46:37.320
<v Speaker 1>for forty percent of the snaps and that's why he

0:46:37.400 --> 0:46:40.799
<v Speaker 1>got all those touches. Well, Doctroll Hilliard got a bunch

0:46:40.800 --> 0:46:43.239
<v Speaker 1>of the touches. He had five carries last week, and

0:46:43.320 --> 0:46:50.520
<v Speaker 1>Dontroll Hilliard sucks three months awesome. So Hunt is Hunt

0:46:50.640 --> 0:46:54.080
<v Speaker 1>is a very inefficient pass catcher. He's averaging just six

0:46:54.239 --> 0:46:57.160
<v Speaker 1>yards per reception. Do you have many yards per reception?

0:46:57.239 --> 0:47:02.800
<v Speaker 1>Kareem Hunt had last year seven point six Again, Nick Shubb,

0:47:03.080 --> 0:47:06.040
<v Speaker 1>Nick Chubb had six Kareem Hunt had fourteen and a half.

0:47:06.880 --> 0:47:10.440
<v Speaker 1>He's such a good pass catcher, going to throw to

0:47:10.560 --> 0:47:14.880
<v Speaker 1>him often. If Freddie Kitchens doesn't throw five, six seven

0:47:14.920 --> 0:47:18.160
<v Speaker 1>passes a game to Hunt, he deserves the firing he's

0:47:18.160 --> 0:47:20.160
<v Speaker 1>going to get. He's only thrown into O B J

0:47:20.400 --> 0:47:24.480
<v Speaker 1>six times a games. Who knows what I mentioned. Dontrell

0:47:24.560 --> 0:47:27.160
<v Speaker 1>Hilliard ran the ball five times last week. So if

0:47:27.239 --> 0:47:29.359
<v Speaker 1>Hunt's gonna run the ball five times, if he's gonna

0:47:29.360 --> 0:47:32.560
<v Speaker 1>catch the ball five times, maybe six times, maybe seven times,

0:47:32.560 --> 0:47:35.920
<v Speaker 1>I hope that's ten touches. If he's gonna average just

0:47:36.000 --> 0:47:38.080
<v Speaker 1>let's say the fourteen and a half per per reception

0:47:38.120 --> 0:47:39.520
<v Speaker 1>isn't gonna hold up. What do we havever just ten

0:47:39.600 --> 0:47:43.080
<v Speaker 1>yards a touch at ten at ten touches, I mean,

0:47:43.160 --> 0:47:45.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, seven yard games are not are not out

0:47:45.560 --> 0:47:48.400
<v Speaker 1>of the question at all for Kareem Hunt. In fact,

0:47:48.440 --> 0:47:50.959
<v Speaker 1>I think that's gonna be fairly common. And he's gonna

0:47:50.960 --> 0:47:53.880
<v Speaker 1>score sometimes. I mean it's not even just about yardage sometimes.

0:47:53.960 --> 0:47:57.279
<v Speaker 1>Kareem Hunt's going to score because again, he's awesome, And

0:47:57.280 --> 0:48:00.280
<v Speaker 1>anybody who thinks he's not awesome look at the Eaves

0:48:00.400 --> 0:48:03.520
<v Speaker 1>running game without him, and it's all the same players

0:48:03.880 --> 0:48:06.799
<v Speaker 1>except not Kareem Hunt. And now you're starting running backs

0:48:06.800 --> 0:48:09.399
<v Speaker 1>at two and a half yards per carry. That's how

0:48:09.440 --> 0:48:12.719
<v Speaker 1>good Kareem Hunt is. He is going to be a

0:48:12.880 --> 0:48:16.960
<v Speaker 1>flex player. I can't get him an RB two so good.

0:48:17.080 --> 0:48:21.440
<v Speaker 1>He's only to be able to play him and the

0:48:21.520 --> 0:48:28.880
<v Speaker 1>game because Nick Chubb's great. He's good. Tough question number two.

0:48:29.200 --> 0:48:32.480
<v Speaker 1>With Patrick Mahomes returning, are you buying low on Sammy

0:48:32.520 --> 0:48:36.760
<v Speaker 1>Watkins or are you just glad you didn't invest Scott.

0:48:37.719 --> 0:48:40.680
<v Speaker 1>I think I'm probably closer to the just glad I

0:48:40.719 --> 0:48:44.160
<v Speaker 1>didn't invest. I know that he was. He led the

0:48:44.160 --> 0:48:46.600
<v Speaker 1>team and targets in three of the four games with Mahomes.

0:48:47.000 --> 0:48:48.600
<v Speaker 1>He led the team in yards in two of the

0:48:48.640 --> 0:48:52.359
<v Speaker 1>four games with Mahomes, but Hill only played one of those. Uh.

0:48:53.120 --> 0:48:55.160
<v Speaker 1>I think part of it is just the schedule. They

0:48:55.160 --> 0:48:56.840
<v Speaker 1>haven't had their by yet, so you're gonna have to

0:48:56.880 --> 0:49:00.600
<v Speaker 1>worry about that. They got matchups with Tennessee and the Chargers,

0:49:00.680 --> 0:49:04.080
<v Speaker 1>and the Broncos were really good against wide receivers. They're

0:49:04.200 --> 0:49:06.760
<v Speaker 1>coming off that, but they're they're still decent. The Bears,

0:49:06.800 --> 0:49:08.960
<v Speaker 1>the Patriots, they just have a lot of tough matchups

0:49:09.000 --> 0:49:12.200
<v Speaker 1>and a by left. So I'm probably glad I didn't invest. Okay,

0:49:12.239 --> 0:49:16.160
<v Speaker 1>matt Um, We've had a long enough Mahomes Watkins track record. Now,

0:49:16.200 --> 0:49:19.480
<v Speaker 1>that's sixteen total games including playoffs where they've gone together.

0:49:20.080 --> 0:49:23.480
<v Speaker 1>He scored a touchdown in three of those sixteen games.

0:49:23.840 --> 0:49:27.160
<v Speaker 1>He's topped sixty five yards only in six of those

0:49:27.200 --> 0:49:30.479
<v Speaker 1>sixteen games. That means you have a sixty two chance

0:49:30.600 --> 0:49:34.360
<v Speaker 1>of fewer than sixty five yards and a chance that

0:49:34.400 --> 0:49:38.160
<v Speaker 1>he won't score. You're going to consistently get it wrong too,

0:49:38.200 --> 0:49:40.759
<v Speaker 1>because the game where he had a hundred yards and

0:49:40.800 --> 0:49:44.120
<v Speaker 1>three scores was Week one against Jalen Ramsey, by the way,

0:49:44.239 --> 0:49:46.839
<v Speaker 1>which nobody started him in that week. Then he had

0:49:46.840 --> 0:49:50.600
<v Speaker 1>great matchups against Detroit and Oakland, he managed forty and

0:49:50.600 --> 0:49:53.279
<v Speaker 1>fifty four scoreless yards, so he was invisible in those games.

0:49:53.320 --> 0:49:56.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad I don't have him. Um. Finally healthy, Sammy

0:49:56.520 --> 0:49:59.440
<v Speaker 1>Watkins has been on the field for of the snaps

0:49:59.480 --> 0:50:01.279
<v Speaker 1>over the last two weeks, and in doing so, he

0:50:01.320 --> 0:50:04.200
<v Speaker 1>has destroyed the playing time of me, Cole Hardman and

0:50:04.239 --> 0:50:08.520
<v Speaker 1>DeMarcus Robinson. He's he's almost an every down receiver in

0:50:08.560 --> 0:50:12.799
<v Speaker 1>that Patrick's Patrick Mahomes led offense, and he's averaging nine

0:50:12.840 --> 0:50:16.400
<v Speaker 1>targets per game. Um, you know, I'm I'm deeply interested

0:50:16.400 --> 0:50:20.200
<v Speaker 1>in anybody getting nine targets from Patrick Mahomes, even Sammy Watkins,

0:50:20.239 --> 0:50:23.560
<v Speaker 1>who's the most frustrating player in the NFL. Now, if

0:50:23.600 --> 0:50:27.800
<v Speaker 1>I had to pay anything seen significant amount to get him,

0:50:27.840 --> 0:50:30.759
<v Speaker 1>I'm out. But Patrick Mahomes I picked up off the

0:50:30.800 --> 0:50:35.200
<v Speaker 1>waiver wire an hour ago in one league. Patrick Mahomes, Sorry,

0:50:35.239 --> 0:50:38.240
<v Speaker 1>Sammy Watkins. I picked up Sammy Watkins off the waiver

0:50:38.320 --> 0:50:41.960
<v Speaker 1>wire an hour ago in one league and is tradeable

0:50:41.960 --> 0:50:45.600
<v Speaker 1>for virtually nothing. I'm I'm just I'm interested in anybody

0:50:45.600 --> 0:50:48.920
<v Speaker 1>who's getting nine targets from Patrick Mahomes, even Sammy Watkins,

0:50:48.920 --> 0:50:51.560
<v Speaker 1>as frustrating as he is, under the assumption you don't

0:50:51.600 --> 0:50:56.680
<v Speaker 1>have to pay much. I'm tough. Question number three in

0:50:56.920 --> 0:51:01.520
<v Speaker 1>Dynasty and Empire leagues is Brandon Cooks droppable? Now, allow

0:51:01.560 --> 0:51:04.680
<v Speaker 1>me to clarify this question. By the way, I know you,

0:51:04.880 --> 0:51:07.800
<v Speaker 1>especially Scott, you like to play in like twenty four

0:51:07.920 --> 0:51:16.839
<v Speaker 1>roster Dynasty League. I am talking about a normally sized league,

0:51:17.840 --> 0:51:22.960
<v Speaker 1>ish roster spots. You can just you can roster everybody,

0:51:23.000 --> 0:51:26.040
<v Speaker 1>And I don't believe that's true. And Dynasty and Empire leagues.

0:51:26.120 --> 0:51:29.920
<v Speaker 1>Is Brandon Cooks droppable? Assuming you have a sized league

0:51:29.920 --> 0:51:33.400
<v Speaker 1>of around fifteen roster spots. This caused damage to my

0:51:33.600 --> 0:51:37.640
<v Speaker 1>medulla oblongata. Oh yeah, there's some seventies rock song that

0:51:37.680 --> 0:51:42.080
<v Speaker 1>references the helps maintain my vital body functions such as

0:51:42.120 --> 0:51:45.440
<v Speaker 1>the heart rate and breathing. So naturally I almost passed

0:51:45.440 --> 0:51:47.319
<v Speaker 1>out and forgot what I was going to say for

0:51:47.360 --> 0:51:51.040
<v Speaker 1>this question. So I'm just going to go Brian Johnson

0:51:51.080 --> 0:51:54.600
<v Speaker 1>on this and ask is Robert Woods droppable? Because at

0:51:54.680 --> 0:51:56.960
<v Speaker 1>least you know that you can't start Cooks while he's

0:51:57.000 --> 0:51:59.680
<v Speaker 1>listed as out and Woods has started and finished every

0:51:59.680 --> 0:52:02.759
<v Speaker 1>game him and he's only had nine more catches and

0:52:02.880 --> 0:52:05.840
<v Speaker 1>sixty nine more yards than Cooks, who's missed portions of

0:52:05.960 --> 0:52:09.040
<v Speaker 1>four of his eight games this season. Okay, what's more,

0:52:09.560 --> 0:52:12.719
<v Speaker 1>Cooks has a touchdown reception, Woods does not, So I'd

0:52:12.800 --> 0:52:16.200
<v Speaker 1>rather have Brandon Cooks, who I know not to play,

0:52:16.400 --> 0:52:20.320
<v Speaker 1>than Robert Woods and have to make a decision here. However,

0:52:20.320 --> 0:52:23.239
<v Speaker 1>they're both were rostering and Dynasty and Empire formats. Both

0:52:23.280 --> 0:52:25.399
<v Speaker 1>of these players will have value among the top one

0:52:25.480 --> 0:52:29.239
<v Speaker 1>twenty next season, so they're both worth So he's only

0:52:29.280 --> 0:52:31.520
<v Speaker 1>twenty six years old. He's had a bunch of concussions

0:52:31.520 --> 0:52:33.399
<v Speaker 1>and that's why he's out right now. He was at

0:52:33.440 --> 0:52:36.239
<v Speaker 1>practice on Friday or you know, and he's not gonna

0:52:36.239 --> 0:52:38.040
<v Speaker 1>play this week. It might be a little while till

0:52:38.080 --> 0:52:43.400
<v Speaker 1>he plays. But Dynasty League Football does dynasty drafts every

0:52:43.400 --> 0:52:46.719
<v Speaker 1>month to get a good, solid current a DP value.

0:52:46.920 --> 0:52:49.640
<v Speaker 1>Last month he was seven, This month he was forty six.

0:52:50.000 --> 0:52:53.200
<v Speaker 1>That was done this week overall wide receiver twenty two,

0:52:53.520 --> 0:52:55.600
<v Speaker 1>and those picks were made within the last couple of days.

0:52:56.080 --> 0:53:02.640
<v Speaker 1>So right now, other guy as a top five d player. Okay,

0:53:02.760 --> 0:53:06.600
<v Speaker 1>wide receiver twenty two, So other dynasty players value him

0:53:06.600 --> 0:53:09.360
<v Speaker 1>as a top fifty dynasty player right now. He was

0:53:09.400 --> 0:53:11.120
<v Speaker 1>dropped in one of our league's chart and I picked

0:53:11.200 --> 0:53:15.640
<v Speaker 1>him up. Yeah, you know, dropped him. He's rudy nose.

0:53:15.960 --> 0:53:19.600
<v Speaker 1>I think it was me. He's not dropable because other

0:53:19.680 --> 0:53:22.200
<v Speaker 1>players in your league will value him enough that you

0:53:22.239 --> 0:53:24.759
<v Speaker 1>can trade him. I'll take him in a rebuild year,

0:53:24.840 --> 0:53:27.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, uh, the correct answers. I've already tipped my

0:53:27.440 --> 0:53:29.480
<v Speaker 1>hand here, by the way, he's wide receiver fifty one

0:53:29.520 --> 0:53:31.520
<v Speaker 1>this year and scoring. You know, I've never been a

0:53:31.520 --> 0:53:34.200
<v Speaker 1>cook um and you know, so I looked at total

0:53:34.239 --> 0:53:37.200
<v Speaker 1>scoring for this year, Brandon Cooks wide receiver fifty one,

0:53:37.440 --> 0:53:39.279
<v Speaker 1>so that well, okay, but he's missed a bunch of games,

0:53:39.320 --> 0:53:44.319
<v Speaker 1>so I'll sort it by average points per game. Well,

0:53:44.400 --> 0:53:46.520
<v Speaker 1>the thing is is he hasn't missed any games that

0:53:46.600 --> 0:53:48.759
<v Speaker 1>he's played, and every he actually went down have to

0:53:48.800 --> 0:53:50.959
<v Speaker 1>wide receiver sixty in that case, because he's been knocked

0:53:51.000 --> 0:53:54.040
<v Speaker 1>out of two games. He's had five concussions that we

0:53:54.160 --> 0:53:57.640
<v Speaker 1>know of, five that we know of. So let's just

0:53:57.719 --> 0:54:02.719
<v Speaker 1>assume a good chunk of this year is lost, or

0:54:02.719 --> 0:54:04.320
<v Speaker 1>you're not going to start him in this in a

0:54:04.400 --> 0:54:06.680
<v Speaker 1>season which has been mostly a lost season for him

0:54:06.680 --> 0:54:08.719
<v Speaker 1>for this year, eating up a roster spot, but then

0:54:08.760 --> 0:54:11.080
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna roll into next year and all offseason. Of course,

0:54:11.080 --> 0:54:13.040
<v Speaker 1>he's gonna be fine at the beginning of next year,

0:54:14.040 --> 0:54:16.560
<v Speaker 1>and that means he's going to cost you a roster

0:54:16.640 --> 0:54:19.759
<v Speaker 1>spot that you could use for a different prospect. And

0:54:19.800 --> 0:54:22.560
<v Speaker 1>then you're in Now you're in Jordan's read territory, where

0:54:22.560 --> 0:54:25.560
<v Speaker 1>all you're doing is just waiting for the next concussion.

0:54:26.040 --> 0:54:29.120
<v Speaker 1>And I don't want that. I mean, if I assuming

0:54:29.160 --> 0:54:31.560
<v Speaker 1>my roster spots mean anything, and if you're playing with

0:54:31.560 --> 0:54:38.080
<v Speaker 1>twenty roster spots. They don't, then I'm out. And so

0:54:38.520 --> 0:54:41.200
<v Speaker 1>in my mind, you're right. If I thought I could,

0:54:41.239 --> 0:54:44.359
<v Speaker 1>if I thought I could trade him for something, yeah,

0:54:44.360 --> 0:54:46.120
<v Speaker 1>if I thought I could get a third round, I

0:54:46.120 --> 0:54:48.640
<v Speaker 1>would trade him. But I don't know that. So the

0:54:48.680 --> 0:54:51.080
<v Speaker 1>correct answer I'm balan. I'm out on Brandon Cooks. I

0:54:51.120 --> 0:54:54.000
<v Speaker 1>do not want the next Jordan Read on my team.

0:54:54.120 --> 0:54:56.319
<v Speaker 1>Let's work in one more matchup into this segment. It

0:54:56.440 --> 0:54:59.279
<v Speaker 1>is Dolphins taking on the Colts. Not a ton to

0:54:59.280 --> 0:55:02.480
<v Speaker 1>talk about here. One C grade on the Dolphins side,

0:55:02.480 --> 0:55:05.720
<v Speaker 1>and that's DeVante Parker with Preston Williams out. The passing

0:55:05.840 --> 0:55:08.239
<v Speaker 1>game largely goes through Parker, which is a mixed bag.

0:55:08.280 --> 0:55:11.120
<v Speaker 1>It means that the defensil obviously play to stop him

0:55:11.200 --> 0:55:14.239
<v Speaker 1>much more. He's quietly scored four times the last five games.

0:55:14.320 --> 0:55:17.680
<v Speaker 1>Davante Parker lines up on the left side, drawing coverage

0:55:17.680 --> 0:55:21.240
<v Speaker 1>from rookie cornerback rock Yahsen, who's yielded at least seventy

0:55:21.239 --> 0:55:22.800
<v Speaker 1>five yards in two of his last three games. But

0:55:22.800 --> 0:55:25.080
<v Speaker 1>I think they're gonna roll double coverage over to DeVante Parker,

0:55:25.120 --> 0:55:27.800
<v Speaker 1>and I wouldn't blame him. Um Ryan's Fitzpatrick might be

0:55:27.840 --> 0:55:31.040
<v Speaker 1>loved Stu Beard has been Fantasy viable in three straight games,

0:55:31.040 --> 0:55:34.320
<v Speaker 1>with multiple touchdowns in each, but it ends here. He's

0:55:34.480 --> 0:55:37.480
<v Speaker 1>lost his best big play weapon, Preston Williams, who went

0:55:37.520 --> 0:55:40.080
<v Speaker 1>on I R. And he faces an improved Indie secondary

0:55:40.120 --> 0:55:44.120
<v Speaker 1>that's allowed just three touchdowns in its last four games,

0:55:44.520 --> 0:55:47.440
<v Speaker 1>and two of those four touchdowns were against Patrick Mahomes

0:55:47.520 --> 0:55:49.520
<v Speaker 1>and Deshaun Watson two of those four games or against

0:55:49.520 --> 0:55:52.200
<v Speaker 1>Patrick Mahomes and Shawn Watson. Point being the face really

0:55:52.200 --> 0:55:54.560
<v Speaker 1>good quarterbacking, and they haven't. They haven't allowed anything there either.

0:55:54.680 --> 0:55:57.239
<v Speaker 1>And frankly, Ryan Fitzpatrick in the Miami offense is not

0:55:57.320 --> 0:56:00.200
<v Speaker 1>nearly as good. Obviously, Mike Kasecki was your take a

0:56:00.280 --> 0:56:02.960
<v Speaker 1>chance on me player. Correct. I don't have a starting

0:56:02.960 --> 0:56:05.040
<v Speaker 1>grade on him, but it's okay a tight end in

0:56:05.080 --> 0:56:08.239
<v Speaker 1>a desperate tight end week, I think it commits. Let's

0:56:08.239 --> 0:56:13.600
<v Speaker 1>talk Klin Blage, your new starting running back. Yeah, yeah,

0:56:13.760 --> 0:56:16.319
<v Speaker 1>he's like, is there something lower than bench that you

0:56:16.320 --> 0:56:19.799
<v Speaker 1>can give him? He's averaging two yards per carry and

0:56:20.040 --> 0:56:23.239
<v Speaker 1>has caught four of the twelve passes that have come

0:56:23.320 --> 0:56:28.439
<v Speaker 1>his way. He literally ducked past. Now is he the

0:56:28.440 --> 0:56:34.080
<v Speaker 1>worst starting offensive player in the league, not counting line,

0:56:34.120 --> 0:56:39.160
<v Speaker 1>not counting line like skilled position guys. Maybe now Blage

0:56:39.200 --> 0:56:43.040
<v Speaker 1>struggles at the finer points of the game, such as cutting,

0:56:43.760 --> 0:56:50.280
<v Speaker 1>elusive vision, balance instincts, footwork, finding open lanes, catching the football.

0:56:50.840 --> 0:56:53.960
<v Speaker 1>Other than that, those are the finer points. Those are

0:56:53.960 --> 0:56:56.719
<v Speaker 1>the finer points of the position of running back. Let's

0:56:56.719 --> 0:56:59.799
<v Speaker 1>go to the Indianapolis side, where Marlon mack is a

0:57:00.080 --> 0:57:02.960
<v Speaker 1>rock solid A grade against the Miami team allowing the

0:57:02.960 --> 0:57:05.680
<v Speaker 1>most rushing attempts and rushing yards to opposing running backs

0:57:05.960 --> 0:57:09.520
<v Speaker 1>MAC averaging over nineteen rushing attempts per game, so the

0:57:09.600 --> 0:57:12.680
<v Speaker 1>volume will be there against this team. It's a very

0:57:12.880 --> 0:57:16.760
<v Speaker 1>very good opportunity for Marlon mack um. The three other

0:57:16.760 --> 0:57:19.400
<v Speaker 1>backs to get nineteen plus carries have all had at

0:57:19.480 --> 0:57:22.560
<v Speaker 1>least one eighteen rushing yards. Let's talk about the passing game.

0:57:22.600 --> 0:57:25.520
<v Speaker 1>We're not sure if it's gonna be Brissette or Brian

0:57:25.600 --> 0:57:27.680
<v Speaker 1>Hoyer yet, but I don't think it matters, and they're

0:57:27.680 --> 0:57:29.800
<v Speaker 1>both gonna get a B grade. It looks like Brissette

0:57:29.840 --> 0:57:33.760
<v Speaker 1>he practiced again. See here's the thing. I know he's practicing,

0:57:34.280 --> 0:57:37.320
<v Speaker 1>but you are, You're Indie. You're trying to make it

0:57:37.400 --> 0:57:40.320
<v Speaker 1>the best decision for the future of your team. You

0:57:40.440 --> 0:57:44.360
<v Speaker 1>don't need Jacoby Brissette against the Dolphins. So I'm not

0:57:44.880 --> 0:57:51.800
<v Speaker 1>that Dolphins are on a hot street, no Hilton, no Campbell, right,

0:57:51.960 --> 0:57:54.560
<v Speaker 1>and they still do it. I think they could do it, um,

0:57:54.600 --> 0:57:57.360
<v Speaker 1>regardless of whoever it is there. It's incredibly it's a

0:57:57.560 --> 0:58:00.440
<v Speaker 1>safe play against the Miami defense that's allowed actually two

0:58:00.480 --> 0:58:02.919
<v Speaker 1>touchdowns and six in the past seven games. So let's

0:58:02.920 --> 0:58:06.760
<v Speaker 1>put either guy, whether it's Prissette or Hoyer on two touchdowns.

0:58:06.760 --> 0:58:09.000
<v Speaker 1>This is the first week, I think all season where

0:58:09.040 --> 0:58:11.919
<v Speaker 1>we're not starting the quarterback against the Dolphins and take

0:58:11.920 --> 0:58:14.360
<v Speaker 1>a chance on me. Yeah, how about that? There might

0:58:14.400 --> 0:58:16.600
<v Speaker 1>be most because we don't know who it is that

0:58:17.160 --> 0:58:19.160
<v Speaker 1>had we known that it was gonna be Brian Hoyer,

0:58:19.200 --> 0:58:23.600
<v Speaker 1>I bet what I bet you'd have taken Q Yes, exactly. Um,

0:58:23.640 --> 0:58:25.400
<v Speaker 1>it'll be by the way, if it's Hoyer, he'll be

0:58:25.440 --> 0:58:29.080
<v Speaker 1>a a DFS bonanza, right, all of a sudden, people

0:58:29.120 --> 0:58:32.640
<v Speaker 1>go bonkers on Sunday when the announcement comes out. Brissette

0:58:32.680 --> 0:58:35.320
<v Speaker 1>has multiple touchdowns at five is seven full games. Obviously

0:58:35.360 --> 0:58:37.760
<v Speaker 1>we'd prefer Brissette, but Hoyer's playable as well. He threw

0:58:37.760 --> 0:58:40.040
<v Speaker 1>through touchdowns last week four if you count the one

0:58:40.080 --> 0:58:42.320
<v Speaker 1>that he threw to the other team. Zach Pascal gets

0:58:42.320 --> 0:58:44.080
<v Speaker 1>a B grade. He has now scored three times in

0:58:44.120 --> 0:58:46.280
<v Speaker 1>the past three weeks. He's got a one hundred yard

0:58:46.280 --> 0:58:48.560
<v Speaker 1>game in that span as well. T Y Hilton out

0:58:48.600 --> 0:58:52.080
<v Speaker 1>Paris Campbell out wide receivers have flourished against Miami, scoring

0:58:52.120 --> 0:58:54.640
<v Speaker 1>seven times in the dolphins last four games, tied for

0:58:54.720 --> 0:59:01.680
<v Speaker 1>second most in that span. And then I've got sea

0:59:02.280 --> 0:59:06.480
<v Speaker 1>grades on Eric Ebron, Jack Doyle, and nikem Hinz. But

0:59:06.840 --> 0:59:08.800
<v Speaker 1>I had them all his benches at one point and

0:59:08.800 --> 0:59:12.080
<v Speaker 1>then decided to warm them up to seize all dart throws.

0:59:12.200 --> 0:59:17.560
<v Speaker 1>If you if, if you think that Brissette needs alternative

0:59:17.600 --> 0:59:20.080
<v Speaker 1>targets to Hilton and Campbell, I could see him throwing

0:59:20.160 --> 0:59:23.120
<v Speaker 1>especially near the stripe to Ebron or Doyle or maybe

0:59:23.120 --> 0:59:25.000
<v Speaker 1>even Nike Hinds out of the backfield. Could have a

0:59:25.000 --> 0:59:27.680
<v Speaker 1>big game here, and maybe even you know, for that matter,

0:59:27.720 --> 0:59:29.360
<v Speaker 1>you could go Jordan Wilkins if you really want to

0:59:29.400 --> 0:59:32.160
<v Speaker 1>go deep. The Dolphins haven't allowed to tight end score

0:59:32.200 --> 0:59:35.520
<v Speaker 1>since the opener, but they also haven't allowed of running

0:59:35.520 --> 0:59:38.000
<v Speaker 1>back receiving touchdown since Week four, So you know what

0:59:38.040 --> 0:59:40.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm putting back on the bench. Ibron Doyle hys back.

0:59:41.160 --> 0:59:43.600
<v Speaker 1>For a moment, I thought maybe I would change my mind,

0:59:43.600 --> 0:59:46.760

1:01:00.920 --> 1:01:04.960
<v Speaker 1>built the lineup with Jamis Winston and Kyler Murray facing

1:01:04.960 --> 1:01:07.400
<v Speaker 1>off against each other like a couple of wide receivers

1:01:07.400 --> 1:01:09.080
<v Speaker 1>in on that game. Oh, that's gonna be a fun

1:01:09.080 --> 1:01:10.680
<v Speaker 1>one to watch it. It is going to be a

1:01:10.680 --> 1:01:13.840
<v Speaker 1>good game. Second highest over under for in Vegas this

1:01:13.960 --> 1:01:16.760
<v Speaker 1>weekend is that one. Phil take on the brown Scott

1:01:16.840 --> 1:01:19.680
<v Speaker 1>Devin Singletary. We've been waiting for the breakout game. It

1:01:19.760 --> 1:01:22.200
<v Speaker 1>happened last week. I don't think they look back at

1:01:22.200 --> 1:01:25.200
<v Speaker 1>this point. I'm so happy about this. Yeah too long,

1:01:25.400 --> 1:01:28.720
<v Speaker 1>it did take too long. I love Devin Singletary. I

1:01:29.160 --> 1:01:32.160
<v Speaker 1>do have a B grade on him here though. The Browns,

1:01:32.520 --> 1:01:37.320
<v Speaker 1>uh core still got eleven touches. That's that's the problem.

1:01:37.520 --> 1:01:39.600
<v Speaker 1>He's still got eleven touches last week. Are they going

1:01:39.640 --> 1:01:42.240
<v Speaker 1>to run a thirty plus times and and Gore's still

1:01:42.240 --> 1:01:44.120
<v Speaker 1>going to get eleven touches? Or they going to run

1:01:44.120 --> 1:01:46.000
<v Speaker 1>it twenty two times and Gore's still going to get

1:01:46.040 --> 1:01:48.840
<v Speaker 1>eight nine ton touches. That's my problem. I don't think

1:01:48.840 --> 1:01:51.760
<v Speaker 1>they look back as well. But over the last five weeks,

1:01:51.800 --> 1:01:54.400
<v Speaker 1>the Browns have allowed the most rushing yards, second most

1:01:54.400 --> 1:01:56.560
<v Speaker 1>total yards, and five point six yards per carry. I

1:01:56.600 --> 1:01:59.640
<v Speaker 1>almost want to give it. I almost, I almost want

1:01:59.680 --> 1:02:01.960
<v Speaker 1>to give into a My only concerned is if they

1:02:02.000 --> 1:02:05.800
<v Speaker 1>give Gore ten touches. That's the problem. Singletary is pretty

1:02:05.800 --> 1:02:07.720
<v Speaker 1>small for goal line use, and we don't yet know

1:02:07.800 --> 1:02:10.920
<v Speaker 1>who's gonna get carries at the stripe right Uh, so

1:02:11.040 --> 1:02:13.600
<v Speaker 1>be great on Singletary and Gore is easily on the bench.

1:02:13.640 --> 1:02:15.880
<v Speaker 1>It's it's just how much trust I have in Singletary

1:02:15.960 --> 1:02:20.320
<v Speaker 1>right now in the in the bills. To give Singletary

1:02:20.440 --> 1:02:22.840
<v Speaker 1>Alan I give a beat. There's so many Allen's playing

1:02:22.880 --> 1:02:25.439
<v Speaker 1>quarterback right now in the NFL. There's three of them. Uh,

1:02:25.520 --> 1:02:28.640
<v Speaker 1>Josh Allen given a B to Allen. Browns have allowed

1:02:28.720 --> 1:02:32.800
<v Speaker 1>multiple touchdown passes in sixth straight and seven of their

1:02:32.840 --> 1:02:36.720
<v Speaker 1>eight games. Alan has multiple touchdowns in four straight. His

1:02:36.840 --> 1:02:38.840
<v Speaker 1>yard ogen attempts have been lower all year that but

1:02:38.880 --> 1:02:41.040
<v Speaker 1>he's finding the end zone. So that's what's getting him

1:02:41.040 --> 1:02:43.720
<v Speaker 1>in there. Only a B grade because he needs those

1:02:43.720 --> 1:02:46.920
<v Speaker 1>scores and some rushing to make his fantasy days. Right now,

1:02:46.920 --> 1:02:48.800
<v Speaker 1>he's not he's not putting on mass. We haven't had

1:02:48.840 --> 1:02:51.920
<v Speaker 1>the explosive games because he just hasn't been running the ball.

1:02:51.920 --> 1:02:54.000
<v Speaker 1>He's not having the hundred yard rushing day, he's not

1:02:54.080 --> 1:02:56.840
<v Speaker 1>having the three hunderd yard passing day. He's just getting

1:02:56.880 --> 1:03:00.640
<v Speaker 1>touchdowns in like thirty yards per game rushing consistent. But

1:03:00.640 --> 1:03:03.400
<v Speaker 1>it's a B grade. His main guy, I'm giving a

1:03:03.440 --> 1:03:06.200
<v Speaker 1>B grade. John Brown has at least four catches and

1:03:06.280 --> 1:03:09.640
<v Speaker 1>at least fifty yards in every single game. But he's

1:03:09.640 --> 1:03:13.280
<v Speaker 1>only top seventy three yards once this season, which is yeah,

1:03:13.320 --> 1:03:16.320
<v Speaker 1>that's a that's a solid, you know, solid nine point

1:03:16.400 --> 1:03:19.880
<v Speaker 1>games in PPR. Giving him a B grade there. Brown

1:03:20.000 --> 1:03:25.320
<v Speaker 1>secondary is finally healthy. Uh so that that could be

1:03:25.360 --> 1:03:27.840
<v Speaker 1>tough on Brown, but I'm giving him a B. Here, Beasley,

1:03:27.880 --> 1:03:30.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm on the fence about his biggest game in the

1:03:30.480 --> 1:03:33.000
<v Speaker 1>last four weeks is three catches for forty one yards,

1:03:33.600 --> 1:03:36.920
<v Speaker 1>but he scored in three straights, so they're finding him

1:03:36.920 --> 1:03:38.840
<v Speaker 1>around the goal line. I think I'm throwing him on

1:03:38.880 --> 1:03:41.600
<v Speaker 1>the bench because TD touchdowns are just tough to predict.

1:03:41.960 --> 1:03:44.120
<v Speaker 1>So I'm on the bet right now. Knox is on

1:03:44.160 --> 1:03:46.439
<v Speaker 1>the bench as well. I I can't trust him meeting

1:03:46.480 --> 1:03:49.440
<v Speaker 1>in a light week for you know, teams on by

1:03:49.720 --> 1:03:54.640
<v Speaker 1>antight ends Mayfield, no We're not starting Mayfield anymore. We

1:03:54.680 --> 1:03:57.240
<v Speaker 1>just can't. And the Bills have an elite past top

1:03:57.280 --> 1:04:00.560
<v Speaker 1>four against quarterbacks, wide receivers, an tight ends. He's my number.

1:04:00.800 --> 1:04:03.840
<v Speaker 1>He's my second to bottom ranked quarterback. This week my

1:04:03.840 --> 1:04:07.280
<v Speaker 1>biggest miss of the year. You and everybody else. Yeah,

1:04:07.480 --> 1:04:09.600
<v Speaker 1>we b J does get a C grade for me.

1:04:09.760 --> 1:04:14.840
<v Speaker 1>Despite having a drawing shadow coverage from trade Avious white Church. Uh,

1:04:14.960 --> 1:04:17.919
<v Speaker 1>Mayfield has been still targeting o b J seven point

1:04:18.000 --> 1:04:21.560
<v Speaker 1>five times per game. His two duds this year came

1:04:21.600 --> 1:04:25.200
<v Speaker 1>against similar tough David Tough defenses like the Ravens and

1:04:25.240 --> 1:04:27.720
<v Speaker 1>forty nine, So he gets he just gets a C

1:04:27.880 --> 1:04:31.000
<v Speaker 1>grade here. I think he might get seven attend targets

1:04:31.000 --> 1:04:33.560
<v Speaker 1>and that what that might get him over Landry I

1:04:33.600 --> 1:04:35.920
<v Speaker 1>do have on the bench despite the fact he's scoring

1:04:35.960 --> 1:04:37.640
<v Speaker 1>and he's actually putting up a few more yards. And

1:04:37.760 --> 1:04:40.080
<v Speaker 1>Landry Harris is on the bench for me too. But

1:04:40.200 --> 1:04:45.480
<v Speaker 1>Chub I'm giving him a grade here. He's averaging twenty

1:04:45.480 --> 1:04:47.880
<v Speaker 1>two touches per game. Hunt will be in. But even

1:04:47.920 --> 1:04:50.040
<v Speaker 1>if he gets Hilliard's five touches from the last couple

1:04:50.080 --> 1:04:52.520
<v Speaker 1>of weeks and a few more, Uh, it's it's hunts

1:04:52.520 --> 1:04:55.040
<v Speaker 1>first week in here even if he loses more. The

1:04:55.040 --> 1:04:58.280
<v Speaker 1>only running back to have seventeen or more touches and

1:04:58.400 --> 1:05:01.720
<v Speaker 1>not top ninety yards and touchdown against the against the

1:05:01.800 --> 1:05:07.120
<v Speaker 1>Bills was Sony Walkman Michelle, So that's understandable. All the

1:05:07.120 --> 1:05:10.400
<v Speaker 1>rest of them, seventeen touches, it's an A grade. Hunt,

1:05:10.440 --> 1:05:12.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm given a C grade. I think he's going to

1:05:12.400 --> 1:05:14.640
<v Speaker 1>have a little a little like like you said, a

1:05:14.640 --> 1:05:16.920
<v Speaker 1>little work in the passing game, just enough to be

1:05:16.960 --> 1:05:19.600
<v Speaker 1>barely startable. Yeah. I think he's gonna be a flex

1:05:20.120 --> 1:05:23.360
<v Speaker 1>just like we told you in three tough questions. Let's

1:05:23.360 --> 1:05:25.919
<v Speaker 1>go to our next matchup, which is the Rams. Yes, hey,

1:05:26.000 --> 1:05:27.960
<v Speaker 1>you know charge, I wanted to ask you. Do you

1:05:28.080 --> 1:05:30.520
<v Speaker 1>enjoy games? I do, thank you, because I got a

1:05:30.640 --> 1:05:33.000
<v Speaker 1>Rams and Steelers game that i'd like to play with

1:05:33.040 --> 1:05:35.760
<v Speaker 1>you guys. Are you guys ready? I'm ready? Um. Here

1:05:35.760 --> 1:05:39.160
<v Speaker 1>are two quarterbacks. Okay, I'm I'm rubbing my temples. Which

1:05:39.200 --> 1:05:42.800
<v Speaker 1>one would you rather have in your fantasy team? Quarterback

1:05:42.880 --> 1:05:47.040
<v Speaker 1>A he averages two fifty four yards. He had thirteen

1:05:47.080 --> 1:05:52.720
<v Speaker 1>touchdowns and four interceptions this year. Okay, that's okay, okay,

1:05:52.760 --> 1:05:57.120
<v Speaker 1>that's quarterbacking. Quarterback B is averaging two sixty three yards

1:05:57.120 --> 1:06:00.440
<v Speaker 1>per game. Similar, but he has eleven touch downs and

1:06:00.560 --> 1:06:03.960
<v Speaker 1>seven interceptions. Which one would you rather have? They're pretty similar,

1:06:03.960 --> 1:06:05.560
<v Speaker 1>but I think I'd rather have the guy with thirteen

1:06:05.600 --> 1:06:09.080
<v Speaker 1>touchdowns and four your Okay, Well, quarterback A doesn't have

1:06:09.120 --> 1:06:12.600
<v Speaker 1>a job anymore. His name is Gardner Minshew. Quarterback B

1:06:12.800 --> 1:06:16.600
<v Speaker 1>is Jared Goff. Who are we sure if he's good? Yeah, well,

1:06:16.600 --> 1:06:18.919
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of questions right now, and his road

1:06:19.000 --> 1:06:21.240
<v Speaker 1>splits are real, and that's why I'm only giving him

1:06:21.320 --> 1:06:24.480
<v Speaker 1>a very tepid C grade in this game. According to

1:06:24.520 --> 1:06:27.880
<v Speaker 1>Evan Silva, he's averaged eight point nine yards per attempt

1:06:27.880 --> 1:06:31.120
<v Speaker 1>at home, only seven point four yards per attempt on

1:06:31.160 --> 1:06:34.320
<v Speaker 1>the road, and he's got a home touchdown to interception

1:06:34.400 --> 1:06:37.840
<v Speaker 1>ratio of thirty six to nine compared to twenty one

1:06:38.040 --> 1:06:41.800
<v Speaker 1>to seventeen on the road. The Steelers have been a

1:06:41.840 --> 1:06:45.600
<v Speaker 1>break but don't bend defense. As of recent four of

1:06:45.640 --> 1:06:48.200
<v Speaker 1>the last five quarterbacks the Steelers have faced have been

1:06:48.200 --> 1:06:51.200
<v Speaker 1>held under two hundred yards, although three of those five

1:06:52.160 --> 1:06:55.439
<v Speaker 1>through for multiple scores. So it's a break, but don't

1:06:55.480 --> 1:06:58.920
<v Speaker 1>bet um. I am giving Cooper cup In a grade.

1:06:59.760 --> 1:07:02.120
<v Speaker 1>Rob Woods and Josh Reynolds are on the bench though.

1:07:02.680 --> 1:07:06.080
<v Speaker 1>Uh Pittsburgh's weaknesses the slot, where they've allowed six touchdowns

1:07:06.080 --> 1:07:09.080
<v Speaker 1>to slot receivers this year. In fact, slot receivers have

1:07:09.160 --> 1:07:12.240
<v Speaker 1>been targeted eighty times this year against the Steelers, compared

1:07:12.280 --> 1:07:16.440
<v Speaker 1>to only sixty six targets to combined outside receivers, so

1:07:16.440 --> 1:07:20.520
<v Speaker 1>they're just peppering the slot against against Pittsburgh. Brandon Cooks

1:07:20.520 --> 1:07:23.880
<v Speaker 1>is missing another week after concussion, and Cooks after Cooks

1:07:23.960 --> 1:07:27.120
<v Speaker 1>left the field in the London game against Since Josh

1:07:27.120 --> 1:07:29.640
<v Speaker 1>Reynolds drew eight targets in that game, so I actually

1:07:29.720 --> 1:07:33.080
<v Speaker 1>like him more than Woods, especially on fan ball dfs

1:07:33.120 --> 1:07:38.240
<v Speaker 1>where he's basically so free. Um Todd Gurley is the

1:07:38.280 --> 1:07:40.600
<v Speaker 1>only other starting grade and he just gets to see

1:07:40.720 --> 1:07:43.760
<v Speaker 1>only one opposing back his top seventy nine yards against

1:07:43.800 --> 1:07:46.480
<v Speaker 1>the Steelers this year. That was Marlon Mack last week

1:07:46.480 --> 1:07:49.360
<v Speaker 1>on twenty one carries, and Gurley will not see twenty

1:07:49.360 --> 1:07:52.800
<v Speaker 1>one carries, especially with the return of Malcolm Brown to

1:07:52.840 --> 1:07:55.480
<v Speaker 1>the lineup. Plus Darrell Henderson probably has done enough to

1:07:55.480 --> 1:07:58.320
<v Speaker 1>see some change of pace touches. The Steelers have only

1:07:58.360 --> 1:08:01.440
<v Speaker 1>allowed four touchdowns to runners on season, which doesn't bode

1:08:01.440 --> 1:08:05.520
<v Speaker 1>well for a touchdown dependent girly On the Pittsburgh side,

1:08:06.120 --> 1:08:10.080
<v Speaker 1>James Conner is out, meaning Jalen Samuels will get the start,

1:08:10.120 --> 1:08:12.520
<v Speaker 1>and he gets a B grade and standard and an

1:08:12.560 --> 1:08:16.640
<v Speaker 1>A grade in PPR. Trey Edmonds, who spelled Samuels on

1:08:16.680 --> 1:08:18.720
<v Speaker 1>the ground, looks like he's also going to miss the game.

1:08:18.720 --> 1:08:21.240
<v Speaker 1>Bench Snell still out with a knee injurym meaning Samuel's

1:08:21.280 --> 1:08:24.760
<v Speaker 1>is about it. He's only on fanball. He's like an

1:08:24.760 --> 1:08:27.519
<v Speaker 1>auto start on fanball in my mind. And another great

1:08:27.560 --> 1:08:31.280
<v Speaker 1>stat from Evan Silva. In six career games where Samuel's

1:08:31.280 --> 1:08:36.080
<v Speaker 1>has played at least forty of the offensive snaps, Samuels

1:08:36.080 --> 1:08:40.120
<v Speaker 1>has four games with seven or more receptions about that,

1:08:40.240 --> 1:08:43.600
<v Speaker 1>including thirteen last week. Well, he's converted tight end. He

1:08:43.640 --> 1:08:45.639
<v Speaker 1>plays like it. They you know, they threw to him

1:08:45.640 --> 1:08:49.400
<v Speaker 1>constantly last week. It was great. It is awesome. Mason

1:08:49.439 --> 1:08:53.120
<v Speaker 1>Rudolph gets us. See um, he seemingly gets you about

1:08:53.120 --> 1:08:55.720
<v Speaker 1>two hundred yards and two passing scores every week. I

1:08:55.760 --> 1:08:58.400
<v Speaker 1>think that's still bankable here. The Rams have seen a

1:08:58.439 --> 1:09:01.240
<v Speaker 1>lot of quarterbacks at the right time this year. They

1:09:01.320 --> 1:09:04.120
<v Speaker 1>got an injured Cam Newton in Week one, They injured

1:09:04.160 --> 1:09:08.960
<v Speaker 1>Drew Brees and Matt Ryan during games. But they are

1:09:09.000 --> 1:09:11.439
<v Speaker 1>the team that gave up four touchdown passes to Jamis

1:09:11.439 --> 1:09:14.920
<v Speaker 1>Winston four touchdown passes to Russell Wilson. Andy Dalton topped

1:09:14.920 --> 1:09:17.240
<v Speaker 1>three hundred yards against them in his final game as

1:09:17.240 --> 1:09:21.439
<v Speaker 1>a Bengal starter and probably got yeah, probably got beatched. Uh.

1:09:21.600 --> 1:09:24.200
<v Speaker 1>Juju Smith, Schuster and Deonte Johnson are on the bench.

1:09:24.320 --> 1:09:26.559
<v Speaker 1>Juju has been a roller coaster this season. He only

1:09:26.600 --> 1:09:29.479
<v Speaker 1>managed sixteen yards last week. He matches up with Nicol

1:09:29.560 --> 1:09:32.960
<v Speaker 1>Robie Coleman, who was only allowed hundred and twenty five

1:09:33.080 --> 1:09:36.720
<v Speaker 1>total yards this season in slot coverage. Deonta gets the

1:09:36.840 --> 1:09:39.559
<v Speaker 1>Jalen Ramsey treatment. And I'm trying a new nickname here

1:09:39.760 --> 1:09:46.040
<v Speaker 1>is he in the Jalen jail? I don't know jail.

1:09:47.560 --> 1:09:50.280
<v Speaker 1>There's something there, There's something to be done there, all right?

1:09:50.560 --> 1:09:53.679
<v Speaker 1>Vance McDonald does get a B grade. Um he scored

1:09:53.800 --> 1:09:56.799
<v Speaker 1>last week in Indie? Is he gonna get jail house rocked?

1:09:57.800 --> 1:10:03.080
<v Speaker 1>Never mind? Jen use from sorry sorry sorry keep working

1:10:03.120 --> 1:10:05.720
<v Speaker 1>yet jump yeah? Well workshop this later off air, the

1:10:05.800 --> 1:10:07.679
<v Speaker 1>Rams have been given up the farm to the tight

1:10:07.760 --> 1:10:10.360
<v Speaker 1>end position. Kittle had one oh three, Disley at eighty one.

1:10:10.439 --> 1:10:13.639
<v Speaker 1>The ghost of Tyler Effort managed six for seventy four.

1:10:13.960 --> 1:10:16.919
<v Speaker 1>Cooper and Cameron Brady each score outside of Jalen Samuel's

1:10:16.960 --> 1:10:20.400
<v Speaker 1>he's the best receiving option this week. So McDonald's bay

1:10:21.120 --> 1:10:24.000
<v Speaker 1>um our final topics are ahead, and we provide you

1:10:24.040 --> 1:10:26.519
<v Speaker 1>with three guys we would believe will be hot waiver

1:10:26.600 --> 1:10:31.200
<v Speaker 1>wire pickups next week, so you can grab them this week.

1:10:32.400 --> 1:10:36.000
<v Speaker 1>Premature speculation. We're warming up the time to see premature

1:10:36.080 --> 1:10:38.960
<v Speaker 1>speculation coming your way, whether you're ready for it or not.

1:10:39.040 --> 1:10:55.599
<v Speaker 1>Fantasy Football Weekly returns in moments Fantasy but one weekly

1:10:55.640 --> 1:11:00.519
<v Speaker 1>returns premature speculation. Uh. From the feedback that week, it

1:11:00.560 --> 1:11:02.800
<v Speaker 1>seems like people like this segment a lot. Maybe the

1:11:02.800 --> 1:11:05.040
<v Speaker 1>most valuable segment of the whole thing is we try

1:11:05.040 --> 1:11:06.800
<v Speaker 1>to provide a player who's going to be a hot

1:11:06.800 --> 1:11:09.120
<v Speaker 1>waiver wire pick up next week, who you want to

1:11:09.200 --> 1:11:12.640
<v Speaker 1>grab this week. Let's see who you've got. Matt, I

1:11:12.760 --> 1:11:16.640
<v Speaker 1>got this guy. Um, he replaced maybe the greatest quarterback

1:11:16.680 --> 1:11:20.040
<v Speaker 1>in the history of the universe. It's Nick Foles who's

1:11:20.080 --> 1:11:23.120
<v Speaker 1>replacing Gardner Minshew Right. Um, he's only owned in just

1:11:23.200 --> 1:11:26.559
<v Speaker 1>over nine percent of ESPN leagues. And remember he's back

1:11:26.600 --> 1:11:29.920
<v Speaker 1>together with his old quarterback coach John d Filippo, who's

1:11:30.000 --> 1:11:34.439
<v Speaker 1>the offensive coordinator in Jacksonville and commandeered a pretty good

1:11:34.479 --> 1:11:37.519
<v Speaker 1>passing offense this year with Minshew. According to my own

1:11:37.680 --> 1:11:41.600
<v Speaker 1>rest of schedule UH charts that I came up with,

1:11:41.640 --> 1:11:45.480
<v Speaker 1>I tweeted him they're they're at explosive output on Twitter. Um.

1:11:45.520 --> 1:11:49.760
<v Speaker 1>The Jags have the second easiest quarterback schedule remaining, including

1:11:49.800 --> 1:11:54.679
<v Speaker 1>games against Oakland and Atlanta in your fantasy semi final

1:11:54.800 --> 1:11:58.040
<v Speaker 1>and championship week. Those are nice matchups to have in

1:11:58.080 --> 1:12:01.680
<v Speaker 1>a two quarterback league. Nick Foles kind of bankable in

1:12:01.720 --> 1:12:04.040
<v Speaker 1>that second quarterbacks, all right, I like it. I'm going

1:12:04.080 --> 1:12:08.400
<v Speaker 1>with Josh Reynolds. He's only four own on ESPN. I

1:12:08.400 --> 1:12:10.599
<v Speaker 1>thought people will be all over and based on that's

1:12:10.600 --> 1:12:13.479
<v Speaker 1>why I went with his productivity last year, we filled

1:12:13.479 --> 1:12:17.080
<v Speaker 1>in exactly. He's He's played ten games with either Cup

1:12:17.200 --> 1:12:21.320
<v Speaker 1>or cooks out. He scored six touchdowns in those ten games,

1:12:22.000 --> 1:12:24.840
<v Speaker 1>and he averages four catches and over fifty yards per

1:12:24.880 --> 1:12:28.200
<v Speaker 1>game in that. If we find out and Cook is gonna,

1:12:28.600 --> 1:12:30.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, I guess see a specialist on Sunday, I

1:12:30.880 --> 1:12:33.680
<v Speaker 1>believe he's definitely out this week. If we find out

1:12:33.720 --> 1:12:36.040
<v Speaker 1>Cook's done for the season, that's a guy that's going

1:12:36.080 --> 1:12:39.360
<v Speaker 1>to be startable in several matchups this year and home.

1:12:39.479 --> 1:12:41.599
<v Speaker 1>Just just pick him up. You'll drop him if if

1:12:41.640 --> 1:12:44.599
<v Speaker 1>Cook comes back, no problem. Yeah that makes sense. How

1:12:44.640 --> 1:12:47.559
<v Speaker 1>about Daniel Jones a candidate for a big game this

1:12:47.560 --> 1:12:49.559
<v Speaker 1>week against the Jets. Remember me telling you why I

1:12:49.560 --> 1:12:52.280
<v Speaker 1>thought he was he was startable this week against the Jets.

1:12:53.120 --> 1:12:56.479
<v Speaker 1>And then when he has a big game this week

1:12:56.520 --> 1:12:59.080
<v Speaker 1>against the Jets, somebody might bother to pull up his

1:12:59.200 --> 1:13:03.600
<v Speaker 1>playoffs jewel and allow me to refresh your memory on

1:13:03.800 --> 1:13:10.920
<v Speaker 1>the Giants playoff schedule. Philadelphia, Miami, Washington. These are three

1:13:10.960 --> 1:13:13.920
<v Speaker 1>of the five worst past defenses in the NFL. These

1:13:13.920 --> 1:13:17.280
<v Speaker 1>are all great opportunities for Daniel Jones, who's gonna clock

1:13:17.320 --> 1:13:19.760
<v Speaker 1>in it roughly a B grade and maybe an A

1:13:19.920 --> 1:13:22.719
<v Speaker 1>grade in those games if he shows some improvement between

1:13:22.720 --> 1:13:26.160
<v Speaker 1>now and then. And yeah, do Daniel Jones thrown receptions? Sure,

1:13:26.840 --> 1:13:29.320
<v Speaker 1>don't care. You know, it's what's mine. Winston does too.

1:13:30.320 --> 1:13:32.840
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you know, the interceptions count you from They

1:13:32.920 --> 1:13:35.719
<v Speaker 1>hurt you about one third of what a touchdown costs

1:13:35.720 --> 1:13:39.040
<v Speaker 1>you or gets you. So I don't care. Daniel Jones

1:13:39.560 --> 1:13:43.320
<v Speaker 1>premature speculation Um might have a bye week coming. I

1:13:43.400 --> 1:13:45.599
<v Speaker 1>don't quite recall, but that's you can. We can work

1:13:45.640 --> 1:13:48.519
<v Speaker 1>around that part if we need to by next week. Yeah,

1:13:48.520 --> 1:13:50.960
<v Speaker 1>by is next week coming. Let's take a look at

1:13:51.000 --> 1:13:55.440
<v Speaker 1>our final two matchups. Sunday night is Vikings versus Cowboys

1:13:55.760 --> 1:13:58.040
<v Speaker 1>and no Adam Feeling in this game. For the Vikings,

1:13:58.320 --> 1:14:00.680
<v Speaker 1>they will also be missing their defensive hackable. We'll talk

1:14:00.680 --> 1:14:03.280
<v Speaker 1>about that when we get to Ezekiel Elliott quite possibly

1:14:03.320 --> 1:14:05.400
<v Speaker 1>missing him for the White games. I've got to be

1:14:05.439 --> 1:14:08.360
<v Speaker 1>grade on Dalvin Cook. Like the Chiefs last week, the

1:14:08.400 --> 1:14:10.519
<v Speaker 1>Cowboys are gonna sell out to stop Dalvin Cook and

1:14:10.520 --> 1:14:13.760
<v Speaker 1>force the Vikings passing game without Adam Theland to beat them.

1:14:13.800 --> 1:14:17.920
<v Speaker 1>I worry about Dalvin Cook beating a Cowboys defense that's

1:14:17.920 --> 1:14:21.439
<v Speaker 1>playing to to stop him entirely. Dallas's defense contains sake

1:14:21.520 --> 1:14:23.800
<v Speaker 1>One Barkley for all but one play last week. They

1:14:23.840 --> 1:14:26.479
<v Speaker 1>have not allowed one hundred yard rusher since Aaron Jones's

1:14:26.840 --> 1:14:29.720
<v Speaker 1>explosion back in Week five. Only two running backs have

1:14:29.760 --> 1:14:32.280
<v Speaker 1>scored against Dallas since Week two, none through the air.

1:14:32.720 --> 1:14:35.880
<v Speaker 1>So Dalvin Cook just a B grade here. The rest

1:14:35.920 --> 1:14:38.200
<v Speaker 1>of the passing game, it's mostly bad news. I've got

1:14:38.320 --> 1:14:40.920
<v Speaker 1>Kirk Cousins on the bench. I thought he looked uncomfortable

1:14:41.000 --> 1:14:43.800
<v Speaker 1>last week, and here comes in the pocket, here comes

1:14:43.840 --> 1:14:46.360
<v Speaker 1>to Marcus Lawrence and Robert Quinn and Michael Bennett. So

1:14:46.479 --> 1:14:48.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't know that he settles down in this game.

1:14:49.000 --> 1:14:51.640
<v Speaker 1>He doesn't have Adam thelan and safety valve guy, and

1:14:52.040 --> 1:14:54.360
<v Speaker 1>Stefan Diggs will probably get double covered like what the

1:14:54.400 --> 1:14:56.880
<v Speaker 1>Chiefs did to him throughout last game. And that means

1:14:56.920 --> 1:14:58.519
<v Speaker 1>the Cousins is gonna have to throw to B. C.

1:14:58.680 --> 1:15:02.160
<v Speaker 1>Johnson and Laquant red Well and IRV Smith and those

1:15:02.200 --> 1:15:04.400
<v Speaker 1>second tier guys. Just I don't think they can get

1:15:04.400 --> 1:15:06.719
<v Speaker 1>it done. So he Kirk Cousins on the bench. Stefan

1:15:06.800 --> 1:15:09.120
<v Speaker 1>Diggs gets a C grade. Over the past five games,

1:15:09.120 --> 1:15:11.639
<v Speaker 1>the Cowboys allowing just one d twenty yards per game

1:15:11.680 --> 1:15:14.600
<v Speaker 1>to receivers. That's third fewest, and they've only allowed to

1:15:14.760 --> 1:15:18.240
<v Speaker 1>receiver touchdowns over those five games, and that's you know,

1:15:18.280 --> 1:15:21.240
<v Speaker 1>those are paltry numbers here. And Diggs has got a

1:15:21.280 --> 1:15:24.600
<v Speaker 1>really tricky matchup against shutdown cornerback Byron Jones, who is

1:15:24.640 --> 1:15:27.599
<v Speaker 1>allowing less than thirty yards per game in his coverage.

1:15:28.000 --> 1:15:30.439
<v Speaker 1>And then again, no Adam feelings they can roll extra

1:15:30.479 --> 1:15:34.720
<v Speaker 1>coverage to Diggs. It's it's a brutal matchup. Unfortunately, just

1:15:34.760 --> 1:15:37.800
<v Speaker 1>to C grade for him, Let's go to the Dallas side.

1:15:38.160 --> 1:15:41.800
<v Speaker 1>Ezekiel Elliott gets an A grade under the assumption that

1:15:42.400 --> 1:15:46.400
<v Speaker 1>the Vikings starting defensive tackle Lynval Joseph does not go.

1:15:46.720 --> 1:15:48.680
<v Speaker 1>He hasn't been ruled out like Ceeland has, but he

1:15:48.680 --> 1:15:50.840
<v Speaker 1>also didn't practice on Thursday or Friday, so I do

1:15:50.880 --> 1:15:53.519
<v Speaker 1>not believe he's going to play. The Vikings had been

1:15:53.640 --> 1:15:56.360
<v Speaker 1>very solid against the run, though. Um They've only allowed

1:15:56.360 --> 1:15:58.400
<v Speaker 1>two touchdowns on the ground and three through the air

1:15:58.439 --> 1:16:00.599
<v Speaker 1>to opposing backs, and it's be you through the air.

1:16:00.680 --> 1:16:04.200
<v Speaker 1>Elliot has been oddly quiet as a receiver, which is weird,

1:16:04.720 --> 1:16:06.720
<v Speaker 1>but maybe it doesn't matter here. Only one runner is

1:16:06.760 --> 1:16:09.360
<v Speaker 1>top thirty one receiving yards against Minnesota, so that probably

1:16:09.360 --> 1:16:11.760
<v Speaker 1>doesn't change. Maybe he wrote it into his new contract

1:16:11.840 --> 1:16:14.640
<v Speaker 1>that he doesn't want to catch passes anymore. Maybe I

1:16:15.240 --> 1:16:18.479
<v Speaker 1>usually don't see that. That's unusual offset language there. Um,

1:16:18.520 --> 1:16:20.120
<v Speaker 1>I think Elliot's gonna get a ton of work if

1:16:20.200 --> 1:16:22.759
<v Speaker 1>Linval Joseph doesn't go. Lynn Bad is the run stuffer

1:16:22.760 --> 1:16:25.400
<v Speaker 1>of the Vikings defensive line, so we'll keep him with

1:16:25.400 --> 1:16:28.880
<v Speaker 1>an A grade. Let's go to the quarterback Dak Prescott

1:16:29.000 --> 1:16:32.840
<v Speaker 1>and Amari Cooper both A grades. They both face an

1:16:32.880 --> 1:16:36.240
<v Speaker 1>inconsistent Vikings secondary that has yielded touchdowns to every opposing

1:16:36.320 --> 1:16:40.519
<v Speaker 1>quarterback except the point resistant Washington duo of case Keenum

1:16:40.600 --> 1:16:44.840
<v Speaker 1>and Dwayne Haskins. Excluding Redskins, over the last month of

1:16:44.920 --> 1:16:48.040
<v Speaker 1>Vikings have allowed three d fifteen passing yards and two

1:16:48.040 --> 1:16:51.040
<v Speaker 1>and a half touchdowns per game. Amari Cooper has one

1:16:51.160 --> 1:16:53.640
<v Speaker 1>hundred yards and or touchdown six and seven full. So

1:16:53.760 --> 1:16:56.400
<v Speaker 1>they're both a grad. Yeah, Dak and Amari. There there

1:16:56.439 --> 1:16:58.920
<v Speaker 1>was worried that he might not go. I believe he

1:16:59.000 --> 1:17:01.920
<v Speaker 1>was practicing Friday. Yeah, he did practice Friday, and they

1:17:01.960 --> 1:17:04.439
<v Speaker 1>expect Amari Cooper to play in this game. He's got

1:17:04.479 --> 1:17:06.880
<v Speaker 1>a knee and ankle issues, but he is expected to go.

1:17:07.400 --> 1:17:10.479
<v Speaker 1>Michael gallup Um has got a nice matchup. It's it's

1:17:10.520 --> 1:17:12.760
<v Speaker 1>not clear on whether it's gonna be more Xavier Rhodes

1:17:12.840 --> 1:17:14.799
<v Speaker 1>or if it's going to be more Trey Waynes, But honestly,

1:17:14.840 --> 1:17:18.519
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't matter. Xavier Rhodes is Pro Football focuses one

1:17:18.600 --> 1:17:22.719
<v Speaker 1>hundred seventeenth ranked corner and Trey Waynes just got picked

1:17:22.720 --> 1:17:24.639
<v Speaker 1>apart by Matt Moore for a hundred forty three yards

1:17:24.640 --> 1:17:27.080
<v Speaker 1>and a touchdown in his coverage last week. Waynes is

1:17:27.120 --> 1:17:29.160
<v Speaker 1>also allowed touchdowns in three of the past four games,

1:17:29.160 --> 1:17:31.160
<v Speaker 1>so Gallup is an excellent start here as well. Also

1:17:31.240 --> 1:17:34.040
<v Speaker 1>a B grade, Jason Witten gets a CE. Minnesota has

1:17:34.040 --> 1:17:36.719
<v Speaker 1>given up the second most receptions and six most yards

1:17:36.720 --> 1:17:40.320
<v Speaker 1>to opposing tight ends. Now, the downside for Witten, I mean,

1:17:40.400 --> 1:17:42.479
<v Speaker 1>aside from being old and slow, is that he hasn't

1:17:42.520 --> 1:17:44.559
<v Speaker 1>scored since Week two, and the Vikings are the one

1:17:44.560 --> 1:17:46.160
<v Speaker 1>team in the NFL that is not allowed to tight

1:17:46.240 --> 1:17:49.240
<v Speaker 1>end touchdown. Um. The only cowboy that I've got on

1:17:49.280 --> 1:17:51.760
<v Speaker 1>the bench is Randall Cobb as a slot receiver. He

1:17:51.800 --> 1:17:55.439
<v Speaker 1>actually gets the best Vikings coverage from McKenzie, Alexander and

1:17:55.479 --> 1:17:57.920
<v Speaker 1>Mike Hughes in the slot. So he's the only guy

1:17:57.960 --> 1:18:00.680
<v Speaker 1>we're benching. Everybody else's a go. Let's go to the

1:18:00.680 --> 1:18:04.080
<v Speaker 1>Monday night football game. That's the Seahawks and the forty Niners.

1:18:04.160 --> 1:18:08.280
<v Speaker 1>Scott Seahawks have been styling fantasy owners, but this is

1:18:08.280 --> 1:18:11.519
<v Speaker 1>the toughest matchup of the year. Yeah, but it's Russell Wilson.

1:18:11.600 --> 1:18:15.080
<v Speaker 1>He's just so good. He's just so good. And here

1:18:15.160 --> 1:18:17.640
<v Speaker 1>the quarterbacks that the Niners have played and people have

1:18:17.720 --> 1:18:23.439
<v Speaker 1>talked about this, Winston Dalton, Rudolph Mayfield, Golf Keenum, Kyle Allen,

1:18:23.560 --> 1:18:27.200
<v Speaker 1>and Kyler Murray who actually had not a murder of rue.

1:18:27.280 --> 1:18:30.680
<v Speaker 1>But Murray had a decent game this week. Ok Um,

1:18:30.720 --> 1:18:32.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm giving I'm giving Wilson a B here. I should

1:18:32.760 --> 1:18:34.960
<v Speaker 1>give hi an A just because he's Russell Wilson. But

1:18:35.000 --> 1:18:37.120
<v Speaker 1>it's such a tough matchups and the fourt Nighters are

1:18:37.160 --> 1:18:40.839
<v Speaker 1>only allowing twelve point eight points per game. But Wilson

1:18:41.040 --> 1:18:43.680
<v Speaker 1>scored in every game multiple touchdowns and seven of his

1:18:43.760 --> 1:18:45.720
<v Speaker 1>nine be great. I want to give him an A,

1:18:45.920 --> 1:18:48.479
<v Speaker 1>but it's it is a tough matchup, is a tough matchup.

1:18:48.800 --> 1:18:51.439
<v Speaker 1>Lockett his main guy. I'm giving an A grade too.

1:18:52.120 --> 1:18:55.000
<v Speaker 1>He's scored in sixty percent of his games since the

1:18:55.000 --> 1:18:57.960
<v Speaker 1>start of last year, so he steps on the field,

1:18:57.960 --> 1:19:02.040
<v Speaker 1>he has a sixty percent chance of scoring touchdown the

1:19:02.080 --> 1:19:05.400
<v Speaker 1>downside fours, having allowed a receiver over eighty one yards

1:19:05.400 --> 1:19:08.680
<v Speaker 1>since week two, but once again, not exactly a murderer's row.

1:19:08.720 --> 1:19:11.960
<v Speaker 1>And Tyler Lockett's pretty special. DK Metcalf I'm giving a

1:19:12.000 --> 1:19:14.840
<v Speaker 1>B grade two. He's averaging over eight targets per game

1:19:15.080 --> 1:19:18.120
<v Speaker 1>over the last three weeks with three touchdowns and that

1:19:18.280 --> 1:19:21.840
<v Speaker 1>span eighteen yards per catch to say he doesn't he

1:19:21.880 --> 1:19:25.200
<v Speaker 1>doesn't even need a lot of them and the yeah,

1:19:25.520 --> 1:19:27.720
<v Speaker 1>I mentioned this earlier in the week, but I think

1:19:27.800 --> 1:19:30.280
<v Speaker 1>Russell they're trying to pad Russell Wilson stats by just

1:19:30.360 --> 1:19:33.280
<v Speaker 1>throwing a ton in the red zone. As you mentioned that,

1:19:33.400 --> 1:19:35.360
<v Speaker 1>Lockett is tied for second in the NFL and red

1:19:35.439 --> 1:19:40.720
<v Speaker 1>zone targets DK metcalf is fourth. They're throwing a lot

1:19:40.760 --> 1:19:43.120
<v Speaker 1>when they get in the red zone. Gordon in his

1:19:43.200 --> 1:19:46.400
<v Speaker 1>possible first game, I'm benching hollisterir I'm probably having on

1:19:46.439 --> 1:19:48.559
<v Speaker 1>the bench as well. No tight end is top twenty

1:19:48.560 --> 1:19:51.800
<v Speaker 1>five yards since Week one against the forty niners. That's

1:19:51.840 --> 1:19:55.720
<v Speaker 1>not good. Although let me mention this, George Kittle may

1:19:55.720 --> 1:19:57.320
<v Speaker 1>not play in this This is exactly what I was

1:19:57.320 --> 1:19:59.040
<v Speaker 1>gonna say next to you. But you can say it

1:19:59.080 --> 1:20:01.519
<v Speaker 1>all right, thank you. You know, if you've got George

1:20:01.600 --> 1:20:04.240
<v Speaker 1>Kittle who did not practice Thursday or Friday, and you're

1:20:04.360 --> 1:20:06.080
<v Speaker 1>very nervous as you should be about him being a

1:20:06.080 --> 1:20:08.640
<v Speaker 1>game time decision may not go. You could pick up

1:20:08.720 --> 1:20:11.760
<v Speaker 1>Jacob Hollister and then waited out until Monday night, and

1:20:11.800 --> 1:20:14.360
<v Speaker 1>then if Kittle doesn't go, you could play Hollister as

1:20:14.360 --> 1:20:16.720
<v Speaker 1>an option. YEP, I was gonna say the exact same thing,

1:20:16.840 --> 1:20:19.800
<v Speaker 1>and with a second caveat if you are one of

1:20:19.800 --> 1:20:22.719
<v Speaker 1>those rare people who have Kittle and a good second

1:20:22.720 --> 1:20:25.960
<v Speaker 1>tight end, play start the good stecond tight ends. Put

1:20:26.040 --> 1:20:29.640
<v Speaker 1>Kittle in your flex and then you can choose from anybody.

1:20:29.760 --> 1:20:33.200
<v Speaker 1>You have a lot of options if your flex guy exactly, Um,

1:20:33.280 --> 1:20:36.240
<v Speaker 1>Chris Carson, I'm given an A grade to Kenyan Drake

1:20:36.320 --> 1:20:39.439
<v Speaker 1>just let up the forty Niners. McCaffrey did the week before,

1:20:39.439 --> 1:20:42.519
<v Speaker 1>but that's McCaffrey. Peterson had eighty plus the week before that.

1:20:42.920 --> 1:20:44.840
<v Speaker 1>Three weeks in a real running backs have had pretty

1:20:44.880 --> 1:20:47.800
<v Speaker 1>darn good games against the forty Niners. So I'm giving

1:20:47.800 --> 1:20:50.639
<v Speaker 1>it an A grade to Chris Carson because all all

1:20:50.760 --> 1:20:53.479
<v Speaker 1>all running backs who have touched the ball seventeen times

1:20:53.960 --> 1:20:57.760
<v Speaker 1>against the forty Niners hit a hundred yards. Wow, that's surprising.

1:20:57.840 --> 1:21:01.519
<v Speaker 1>I just al and Quan Alexander out. That's a big

1:21:01.560 --> 1:21:04.720
<v Speaker 1>loss right in the heart of the Niners defense went

1:21:04.760 --> 1:21:08.320
<v Speaker 1>out early last week. Chris car Carson averages twent two

1:21:08.360 --> 1:21:11.360
<v Speaker 1>touches per game. So he should hit that number on

1:21:11.400 --> 1:21:13.439
<v Speaker 1>the other side. I hate to bring up the fumbling

1:21:13.479 --> 1:21:17.599
<v Speaker 1>thing again for Chris Carr last week. Hopefully he doesn't.

1:21:17.720 --> 1:21:21.200
<v Speaker 1>He don't seem to see God bless him for not caring.

1:21:21.240 --> 1:21:23.920
<v Speaker 1>What does that tell you? Does that possibly tell you

1:21:23.920 --> 1:21:28.000
<v Speaker 1>about Rashod Penny that you can fumble an unlimited number

1:21:28.040 --> 1:21:30.240
<v Speaker 1>of times to keep your job? Yeah, exactly, Jimmy g

1:21:30.520 --> 1:21:33.160
<v Speaker 1>was my take a chance on me. I actually have

1:21:33.240 --> 1:21:35.639
<v Speaker 1>an a grade on him. Just so you know. They're

1:21:36.120 --> 1:21:39.559
<v Speaker 1>Manuel Sanders back to back games he's scored in since

1:21:39.680 --> 1:21:41.760
<v Speaker 1>joining the Niners. I have an a grade on him

1:21:41.760 --> 1:21:44.920
<v Speaker 1>as well. Seattle has allowed four yard receivers in the

1:21:45.000 --> 1:21:48.439
<v Speaker 1>last five weeks, all by the leading target getter, target

1:21:48.520 --> 1:21:51.400
<v Speaker 1>leading target wide receiver, and that's gonna be Sanders this week.

1:21:51.720 --> 1:21:54.880
<v Speaker 1>Sanders has fourteen targets since joins joining the team. The

1:21:54.920 --> 1:21:58.320
<v Speaker 1>only person with more is George Kittle, who if he blays.

1:21:58.400 --> 1:22:00.479
<v Speaker 1>We saw him play a few weeks ago, the same

1:22:00.520 --> 1:22:03.200
<v Speaker 1>injuries days being bad. We played in the game. You know,

1:22:03.280 --> 1:22:05.519
<v Speaker 1>last week's game. He played through the injuries. I think

1:22:05.560 --> 1:22:08.519
<v Speaker 1>he's going to play. He's he's like barreling people over

1:22:08.600 --> 1:22:11.160
<v Speaker 1>still and when he plays I I guess maybe they

1:22:11.240 --> 1:22:14.559
<v Speaker 1>just give him a little cortisol or whatever toward it

1:22:14.640 --> 1:22:17.840
<v Speaker 1>all at all. I don't know that pharmacy guy. I

1:22:17.880 --> 1:22:21.080
<v Speaker 1>believe it's to at all. They give him a nice shot.

1:22:21.680 --> 1:22:23.599
<v Speaker 1>He's gotten a grade. I don't think you should give

1:22:23.680 --> 1:22:27.879
<v Speaker 1>him ambien in the game. Get like an ambient ointment

1:22:28.040 --> 1:22:31.320
<v Speaker 1>that you can can rub. Can you inject ambien? Is that?

1:22:31.479 --> 1:22:34.080
<v Speaker 1>Is that something like into a knee or anything. I

1:22:34.120 --> 1:22:38.479
<v Speaker 1>don't know. I don't take your niece sleepy well, you

1:22:38.520 --> 1:22:40.679
<v Speaker 1>get the elbow thing, right, we get the funny bone,

1:22:40.680 --> 1:22:48.880
<v Speaker 1>don't Some people say that No, never mind, no, just

1:22:48.880 --> 1:22:51.719
<v Speaker 1>just to see grade on Coleman, though, it appears Shanahan

1:22:51.880 --> 1:22:54.680
<v Speaker 1>is splitting the roles between Coleman and Breda, letting the

1:22:54.680 --> 1:22:56.760
<v Speaker 1>hoth hand get more work. Last two weeks ago, it

1:22:56.800 --> 1:22:58.720
<v Speaker 1>was Coleman, last week it was Breda. If you had

1:22:58.720 --> 1:23:00.559
<v Speaker 1>a bet on one, it's going to be woman because

1:23:00.560 --> 1:23:03.680
<v Speaker 1>of the touchdowns. He's the goal line. I wish I

1:23:03.680 --> 1:23:06.040
<v Speaker 1>wish they would give breed of more carries inside the five.

1:23:06.080 --> 1:23:08.280
<v Speaker 1>He's only got one all season, and inside the five

1:23:08.479 --> 1:23:10.719
<v Speaker 1>for the longest time. Even when Colvin was out, Colvin

1:23:10.800 --> 1:23:13.880
<v Speaker 1>still was ahead of it. Jeff Wilson taking those banks

1:23:13.920 --> 1:23:15.640
<v Speaker 1>and I hate that part. Do you guys think now

1:23:15.680 --> 1:23:17.680
<v Speaker 1>that Emmanuel Sanders is with the Niners? Niners have been

1:23:17.680 --> 1:23:19.360
<v Speaker 1>the most run heavy team in the league. Do you

1:23:19.400 --> 1:23:23.719
<v Speaker 1>think now with Emmanuel Sanders there that it was really

1:23:23.760 --> 1:23:25.360
<v Speaker 1>more it wasn't you know? And they were a good

1:23:25.439 --> 1:23:27.920
<v Speaker 1>running team, right, so why not run? But they also

1:23:28.200 --> 1:23:30.080
<v Speaker 1>know the receivers had stepped up at all, other than

1:23:30.120 --> 1:23:32.880
<v Speaker 1>George Kittle. Now that Sanders is there, do you think

1:23:33.200 --> 1:23:35.360
<v Speaker 1>that they will no longer be the most run heavy

1:23:35.360 --> 1:23:37.040
<v Speaker 1>team and that this thing is gonna start to balance

1:23:37.080 --> 1:23:41.679
<v Speaker 1>and balance itself out to something closer to NFL average. Well,

1:23:42.240 --> 1:23:45.120
<v Speaker 1>we have a one game sample size of Jimmy G's

1:23:45.120 --> 1:23:50.400
<v Speaker 1>attempts going way up, so maybe it's scary for everyone

1:23:50.439 --> 1:23:53.120
<v Speaker 1>if they are. But that Quinea, Yeah, that's that's I mean,

1:23:53.560 --> 1:23:55.400
<v Speaker 1>just the schedule indicates that it's going to be a

1:23:55.400 --> 1:23:58.679
<v Speaker 1>more balanced attack. I mean, Scott like to the Seattle

1:23:58.720 --> 1:24:01.479
<v Speaker 1>matchup this week, They get Arizona next week, they have

1:24:01.520 --> 1:24:06.439
<v Speaker 1>Atlanta in week fifteen, so there's a handful of matchups

1:24:06.439 --> 1:24:09.719
<v Speaker 1>in there that are kind of good and if they're

1:24:09.720 --> 1:24:12.439
<v Speaker 1>gonna be tough matchups to New Orleans is in their

1:24:12.479 --> 1:24:14.639
<v Speaker 1>Baltimore is in their Green Bay is and then they're

1:24:14.640 --> 1:24:16.759
<v Speaker 1>gonna have to throw to win in some of these games,

1:24:17.000 --> 1:24:19.760
<v Speaker 1>and they're gonna be tough ones. Uh. Melvin Gordon, going

1:24:19.800 --> 1:24:23.080
<v Speaker 1>back to the Thursday night game, two huge workload games

1:24:23.400 --> 1:24:27.640
<v Speaker 1>with new offensive coordinator Shane stike In now getting rid

1:24:27.680 --> 1:24:29.760
<v Speaker 1>of Ken Wizzenan who has now been fired midseason in

1:24:29.760 --> 1:24:32.160
<v Speaker 1>two consecutive years, always seems to be a plus. Do

1:24:32.200 --> 1:24:34.280
<v Speaker 1>you believe that we this is the real Melvin Gordon,

1:24:34.320 --> 1:24:36.880
<v Speaker 1>that he can continue to be an effective workhorse back

1:24:36.920 --> 1:24:40.200
<v Speaker 1>going forward, or do you think there's just a two

1:24:40.200 --> 1:24:44.400
<v Speaker 1>game blip on the radar. It's worth noting that Melvin

1:24:44.439 --> 1:24:48.960
<v Speaker 1>Gordon has now played in six games, and usually, you know,

1:24:49.080 --> 1:24:52.120
<v Speaker 1>you have a preseason that lasts about four games, and

1:24:52.520 --> 1:24:56.200
<v Speaker 1>his four game preseason happened to happen in week five, six, seven,

1:24:56.200 --> 1:24:59.080
<v Speaker 1>and eight, where he did next to nothing. And now

1:24:59.200 --> 1:25:03.080
<v Speaker 1>he's good. Go figure, He's Melvin Gorton. He's a good player.

1:25:03.160 --> 1:25:05.080
<v Speaker 1>He had to he had to get acclimated to this.

1:25:05.160 --> 1:25:07.000
<v Speaker 1>I think that he's going to be pretty solid the

1:25:07.040 --> 1:25:08.960
<v Speaker 1>rest of the year. The return of Russell Coom to

1:25:09.000 --> 1:25:12.160
<v Speaker 1>that offensive line certainly helps as well. That's that's I

1:25:12.200 --> 1:25:14.960
<v Speaker 1>think when I think our theory of when he was

1:25:15.000 --> 1:25:17.720
<v Speaker 1>coming back is still in play, that they they might

1:25:17.760 --> 1:25:19.640
<v Speaker 1>not want to keep him in. They might continue to

1:25:19.760 --> 1:25:22.439
<v Speaker 1>run the wheels off him as well. Absolutely, let's continue

1:25:22.439 --> 1:25:24.880
<v Speaker 1>talking Chargers for just a minute. Their wide receivers have

1:25:25.000 --> 1:25:29.800
<v Speaker 1>combined for zero touchdowns in six games, and they've got

1:25:29.880 --> 1:25:33.040
<v Speaker 1>Keenan Allen, they've got Mike Williams. A is Mike Williams

1:25:33.040 --> 1:25:35.680
<v Speaker 1>just a flat out drop and be do you have

1:25:35.720 --> 1:25:40.800
<v Speaker 1>the stones to sabotage drop Keenan Allen? That is that's

1:25:40.840 --> 1:25:43.920
<v Speaker 1>the way to go, tough question Umber four. That's right,

1:25:44.000 --> 1:25:46.800
<v Speaker 1>it feels that way. So Mike Williams, you guys dropping Yeah,

1:25:47.400 --> 1:25:50.240
<v Speaker 1>dropping in in a standard league a touchdown dependent receiver

1:25:50.280 --> 1:25:52.400
<v Speaker 1>who has no touchdowns under the year AFT league. Yeah,

1:25:52.400 --> 1:25:55.679
<v Speaker 1>he's absolutely droppable. Yeah. Probably, It's it's tough. It depends

1:25:55.680 --> 1:25:58.519
<v Speaker 1>on your roster, I guess, But yeah, I don't think that. Yes, yes, okay,

1:25:58.560 --> 1:26:01.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't have the ability to save TAJ dropped Keenan Allen,

1:26:01.280 --> 1:26:05.160
<v Speaker 1>though he he's shown that upside. He it was like

1:26:05.200 --> 1:26:08.559
<v Speaker 1>what week three or week before that, he was maybe

1:26:08.600 --> 1:26:12.680
<v Speaker 1>the best wide receiver in fantasy. Something's got. It's like

1:26:12.720 --> 1:26:15.240
<v Speaker 1>the Curio stretch of the DeAndre Hopkins stretch that those

1:26:15.240 --> 1:26:17.799
<v Speaker 1>touchdowns will start coming. And and he has been injured

1:26:17.840 --> 1:26:19.920
<v Speaker 1>for a few weeks now. I know he was questionable,

1:26:19.920 --> 1:26:21.800
<v Speaker 1>and he played in that Bears game a few weeks ago.

1:26:23.320 --> 1:26:26.160
<v Speaker 1>He's got, you know, the long layoff right now after

1:26:26.360 --> 1:26:29.280
<v Speaker 1>after a Thursday night game. I believe they play in Mexico.

1:26:29.560 --> 1:26:31.120
<v Speaker 1>Let me ask you the next week and then have

1:26:31.200 --> 1:26:34.479
<v Speaker 1>a bye so yeah, it's Kansas City then by um,

1:26:35.000 --> 1:26:37.120
<v Speaker 1>let me ask you this about Keenan Allen. Are you

1:26:37.840 --> 1:26:40.800
<v Speaker 1>trading Many leagues have got their trading deadline either this

1:26:40.840 --> 1:26:43.519
<v Speaker 1>weekend or next weekend. Are you trading Keenan Allen on

1:26:43.640 --> 1:26:45.880
<v Speaker 1>name value right now or do you think his values

1:26:45.920 --> 1:26:48.000
<v Speaker 1>dropped so low that the return is not going to

1:26:48.080 --> 1:26:50.160
<v Speaker 1>be worth it. I'm looking at the by Low angle

1:26:50.200 --> 1:26:52.840
<v Speaker 1>on Keenan Allen and seeing if I can get him.

1:26:52.880 --> 1:26:55.160
<v Speaker 1>I think it's closer to by Low than to sell

1:26:55.600 --> 1:26:58.200
<v Speaker 1>at this point, because I do think it'd be a Cello. Alright,

1:26:58.360 --> 1:27:03.240
<v Speaker 1>it's Hunter Henry, a top three Fantasy tight end. No,

1:27:03.360 --> 1:27:07.200
<v Speaker 1>I still got Kittle Kelsey. I think zach Ertz is

1:27:07.240 --> 1:27:11.400
<v Speaker 1>still above Hooper's. Hooper's in that conversation healthy by points

1:27:11.439 --> 1:27:13.800
<v Speaker 1>per game, Almost none of those guys are in the conversation.

1:27:13.880 --> 1:27:16.479
<v Speaker 1>Henry's way up there. Henry's awesome in points per game

1:27:16.680 --> 1:27:18.360
<v Speaker 1>has been yeah, you know, if you finish, if you

1:27:18.360 --> 1:27:19.920
<v Speaker 1>think he's going to stay healthy for the rest of

1:27:19.920 --> 1:27:21.400
<v Speaker 1>the season, which has not been a sure thing to

1:27:21.439 --> 1:27:24.320
<v Speaker 1>this point. He's also been great, awesome in missed games

1:27:24.360 --> 1:27:27.080
<v Speaker 1>per season. He's very good at that. I think are

1:27:27.080 --> 1:27:29.680
<v Speaker 1>we just talking redraft here? Because just talking redraft for

1:27:29.720 --> 1:27:30.920
<v Speaker 1>the rest of this I think you can make a

1:27:31.000 --> 1:27:33.439
<v Speaker 1>very strong argument for top three top three. I think

1:27:33.439 --> 1:27:36.479
<v Speaker 1>you can do. I've noticed that the two tight ends

1:27:36.520 --> 1:27:39.200
<v Speaker 1>that played last night, Hunter Henry and Darren Waller are

1:27:39.240 --> 1:27:44.000
<v Speaker 1>on like everybody's team together because when when Henry went down,

1:27:44.160 --> 1:27:47.559
<v Speaker 1>down scrambled, everybody scrambled and scrambled and went, who do

1:27:47.600 --> 1:27:49.640
<v Speaker 1>I pick up both? This Waller guy did well. So

1:27:49.720 --> 1:27:52.080
<v Speaker 1>everybody's got both of them right now, and I don't

1:27:52.120 --> 1:27:55.040
<v Speaker 1>mind acquiring either of those guys from that team that's

1:27:55.080 --> 1:27:58.160
<v Speaker 1>got both Waller and Henry. That makes sense. Last one

1:27:58.680 --> 1:28:02.080
<v Speaker 1>in Empire and Dynas the leagues is Josh Jacobs, a

1:28:02.160 --> 1:28:08.479
<v Speaker 1>top five overall asset, not top five overall because I

1:28:09.160 --> 1:28:12.960
<v Speaker 1>have wide receivers normally ranked pretty high. You got Kelsey's

1:28:13.000 --> 1:28:15.800
<v Speaker 1>in that, Yeah, you got partly McCaffrey and Cook. If

1:28:15.840 --> 1:28:18.680
<v Speaker 1>he starts catching more passing, catching more passes of this

1:28:18.720 --> 1:28:21.120
<v Speaker 1>season goes on, then he would be but not yet,

1:28:21.200 --> 1:28:26.040
<v Speaker 1>not yet, He's probably he's getting there. It's it's in

1:28:26.040 --> 1:28:28.599
<v Speaker 1>that conversation. If he keeps going at this pace through

1:28:28.640 --> 1:28:31.120
<v Speaker 1>the rest of the season and adds in a few receptions,

1:28:31.320 --> 1:28:33.120
<v Speaker 1>they expand the offense for m a little bit, which

1:28:33.160 --> 1:28:35.919
<v Speaker 1>they might. Josh Jacobs could be a top five overall

1:28:36.240 --> 1:28:39.439
<v Speaker 1>Empire Dynasty League asset. If you love this show, go
