1 00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:04,240 Speaker 1: Hello, everybody. Welcome into the Fantasy Pros Football Podcast. I'm 2 00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:07,560 Speaker 1: Ryan Warmley, joined on this Friday morning by debro and 3 00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:10,040 Speaker 1: by fits. It's Derek Brown and Pat fitz Morris. I'm 4 00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:12,040 Speaker 1: just using their nicknames. Deever, how are you feeling on 5 00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:12,840 Speaker 1: this Friday morning? 6 00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:15,920 Speaker 2: Oh good man, it was a good Thursday night. I 7 00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:18,000 Speaker 2: know a lot of Patriots fans are not happy, but 8 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:20,440 Speaker 2: I went five and one in betting, so I mean 9 00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:21,760 Speaker 2: there are things to complain about. 10 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:23,760 Speaker 3: My Wallett is not one of them this morning. 11 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:26,840 Speaker 1: Fitz, you've watched a lot of vintage Aaron Rodgers in 12 00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:28,680 Speaker 1: your day. Did you feel like we were getting back 13 00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 1: to that last night? 14 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:33,640 Speaker 4: He looked pretty good. He even looked a little nimble 15 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:36,159 Speaker 4: on a couple of runs. So that was nice to 16 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 4: see because I thought he looked kind of a mobile 17 00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:40,880 Speaker 4: in week week one, like maybe this was going to 18 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,880 Speaker 4: be a concern. But no, he did look pretty good. 19 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 4: So good for Jets fans. They had a rough twenty 20 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:48,919 Speaker 4: twenty three. They deserve something like this. 21 00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,560 Speaker 1: We'll see how long it lasts. Knowing the way Jets 22 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:55,520 Speaker 1: fans typically have to suffer, it might not last too long, 23 00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 1: but for now, it did look very good here to 24 00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: kick off week three. This is our Friday Show four 25 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 1: Week three. It's our key Question show.

Let's check in with Colin Coward and his 44 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 1: over underpicks in our weekly challenge. Time now for the 45 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: Week three Over Under Challenge, We're chatting with Colin Coward. 46 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 1: As always, this weekly segment is presented by DraftKings. Colin, 47 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,120 Speaker 1: we went seven out of ten in week one, dropped 48 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: a bit to six out of ten in week two, 49 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,519 Speaker 1: but still a record of thirteen and seven so far 50 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 1: on the young season. It's actually in the top ten 51 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 1: percent of all of our participants so far, so we 52 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:19,360 Speaker 1: are starting off hot for sure. We will try to 53 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 1: keep to our winning ways here going in Week three. 54 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 1: As a reminder, our listeners can play along this season 55 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 1: at fantasypros dot com Slash Challenge. Colin will dive right 56 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: into a few of the players in this week's challenge, 57 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 1: starting as always with the quarterbacks. Derek Carr stunningly, shockingly, 58 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 1: jaw droppingly in the top three in quarterback scoring on 59 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:41,359 Speaker 1: DraftKings so far this season. Clint Kubiak is changing things 60 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: up both statistically and just the vibes for the Saints 61 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: right now twenty two point one fantasy points per game 62 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: on the year. Do you think he continues this against 63 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 1: Philly or would the Eagles be the defense to finally 64 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 1: slow this thing down. 65 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 5: Well, I will say that this is the Shanahan offense 66 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 5: and it's working throughout the league. I do think they 67 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:03,360 Speaker 5: cool off a little. I mean, at some point, you know, 68 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 5: trees don't grow to the sky, as stock market pickers say, like, 69 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,639 Speaker 5: you just don't play this well forever. But I don't 70 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 5: think it's a mirage. I think they've added speed on 71 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 5: the perimeter. I think Alvin Kamara is off to a 72 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,239 Speaker 5: great start and has been a great back when used properly. 73 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 5: This is a coordinator story. Derek Carr is comfortable and protected. 74 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 5: I think he remains and does anybody really like Philadelphia's 75 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 5: defense here? They're on a short week. That Atlanta O 76 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 5: line is really physical. Eagles could be a little bit 77 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 5: beat up. It's like when you play the Niners, the 78 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 5: Lions with great o' lions, the Cowboys in their prime 79 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 5: with great o' lines, you're a little beat up in 80 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 5: the front seven. I think I think they'll cool off 81 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 5: a little. I think it's a very very close game 82 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 5: and lower scoring than we're getting used to with the Saints. 83 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 5: But I don't think this is a mirage. I think. 84 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 5: I think between Kamara, the protection and Clint Kubiak, it's 85 00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 5: a real team and a real story. 86 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: You mentioned folks not really believing the Eagles defense. The 87 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: lasting memory we have at the Eagles defense right now 88 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: is that Monday night finish. 89 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:09,119 Speaker 5: So that last drive was a layup drill for Kirk Cousins. 90 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 5: I mean it was just seven on seven down the field. 91 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, one hundred percent. So we'll see. We'll see if 92 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 1: the Saints keep this up. Another quarterback we wanted to 93 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,679 Speaker 1: hit on Lamar Jackson at Dallas. He's up at twenty 94 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,880 Speaker 1: three point three fantasy points per game so far on DraftKings, 95 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,159 Speaker 1: a bit down in Week two, but still number two 96 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: across the first two weeks of the season, behind only 97 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 1: Baker Mayfield. Actually ISAA Ravens fan personally, I'm a bit 98 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 1: worried about what Michael Parsons is about to do to 99 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 1: this offensive line. What do you expect out of Lamar 100 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:37,000 Speaker 1: in this one? 101 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:37,360 Speaker 3: Well? 102 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,360 Speaker 5: They I believe they lead the NFL in yards. They're 103 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,280 Speaker 5: a toe away from beating Kansas City and Arrowhead. This 104 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 5: is a go either way game. I like Baltimore because 105 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 5: I like Lamar in big spot if you take out 106 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 5: the Kansas City Chiefs. He has a nineteen and fourteen 107 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 5: record against playoff teams in his career. Now that includes 108 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 5: the Chiefs, so if you take the Chiefs out, it's 109 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 5: obviously much better. Dak is not good against playoff teams 110 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,359 Speaker 5: in his career, So I like Baltimore in this game. 111 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 5: I think I'd be a little concerned. It would probably 112 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 5: be a stay away game for me. I've always had 113 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:12,159 Speaker 5: this theory that when a talented team at home is humiliated, 114 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 5: they tend to really play well the next week. That 115 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 5: was an embarrassing loss for the Cowboys. I think I 116 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,159 Speaker 5: would stay away from Lamar this week. They'll be spots 117 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:25,159 Speaker 5: throughout the year where he can be better serviced or 118 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,279 Speaker 5: better used. I think i'd stay away this week with Lamar. 119 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 5: I worry too about Micah Parsons and that defense rising. 120 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 1: Up a little. Let's get to the running backs. You 121 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: already kind of alluded to him a little when we 122 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: were talking about Derek Carr. Alvin Kamara is in this 123 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,919 Speaker 1: week's challenge as well, obviously, also going up against the Eagles. 124 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 1: He's up at thirty four and a half Fantasy points 125 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: per game now, obviously a lot of that is carried 126 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:48,280 Speaker 1: by his ridiculous explosion in Week two, but it's just 127 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,280 Speaker 1: been a very excellent start to the season. He looks 128 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,400 Speaker 1: really good to the eye test in my opinion as well. 129 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,159 Speaker 1: He's number one fantasy running back on DraftKings by a mile, 130 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: nearly ten points per game, higher than anybody else. We 131 00:05:58,000 --> 00:05:59,839 Speaker 1: already talked about Derek Carr. Do you think the running 132 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 1: game continues against the Eagles? 133 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 5: No, because I think I will say this is where 134 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 5: I think the Saints slow down, So the Eagles back end. 135 00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 5: You have to make choices against the Saints, right, you 136 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 5: have to pick something to stop in Shanahan's offense. And 137 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 5: I think if I was Philadelphia on a short week, 138 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 5: I would pick stopping Alvin Kamara. I'd say, let Derek 139 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 5: Carr be me over the top. I'll take my chances. 140 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 5: I think Philadelphia's entire game plan is we have got 141 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 5: to get our arms around Alvin Kamara. We do not 142 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 5: believe Derek Carr is going to win a shootout against 143 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 5: us in our pass rush. So again, this is a 144 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 5: bit of a sell in this spot. I love Alvin, 145 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:43,279 Speaker 5: but when you play these diverse offenses and they have 146 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 5: all their pieces. You have to make choices. If you 147 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 5: were the defensive coordinator for the Eagles. Alvin Kamar is 148 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,119 Speaker 5: a great player. Derek Carr is having a great year, 149 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 5: but as a okay player. I think Kamara comes back 150 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 5: down to earth this week. I like the Saints to win, 151 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,159 Speaker 5: but I think the offense comes back down to earth. 152 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 1: Josh Jacobs is another running back in this week's challenge, 153 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: going up against the Titans. Obviously, the Packers, you know, 154 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 1: pulled out a win despite having Mlik Willis starting at quarterback. 155 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 1: Did you see anything out of this offense that makes 156 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: you think we're gonna see, you know, anything different from 157 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: Jacobs or is this going to be just another I mean, 158 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 1: assuming it's Milik Willis. I guess they're still talking about 159 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 1: as at the time of this recordy Jorian Love maybe playing, 160 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 1: But do you expect really big usage from Jacobs? Again, 161 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 1: I don't. 162 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 5: I see usage, but not production. Tennessee's defense is really good. 163 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 5: It's a really really good defense. And with Jordan Love playing, 164 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 5: I believe he practiced this week, They're gonna limit his exposure. 165 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 5: They're gonna run the football. I don't know if they're 166 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 5: gonna have a lot of success. So I think Green 167 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 5: Bay they've got tremendous off remps of weapons. But this 168 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 5: is a do we play him or not decision? Right, 169 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 5: And my guess is, if it's Willis playing, they're gonna 170 00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 5: run a lot of Willis. They're not gonna make him 171 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 5: throw it five times. If Jordan Love plays, they don't 172 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 5: want to expose him. So my takeaway is, because Tennessee's 173 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 5: got a real pass rush, you don't want to put 174 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 5: Jordan Love, who's seventy percent, up against that Tennessee pass rush. 175 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 5: I think they're gonna give a lot of carries to 176 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 5: Josh Jacobs. I question how effective he'll be. I see 177 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 5: I feel like a downer this week. I think offenses, 178 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 5: I think there's gonna be week threes, four and five 179 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 5: are a little bit of true serum. I think this 180 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 5: has been a weird year where we have some surprises. 181 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,959 Speaker 5: I think some of these red hot teams come back 182 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 5: down to earth. I think Jacobs will get a lot 183 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 5: of carries. I question the success. 184 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:43,839 Speaker 1: You've been a bit of a downer, you know, in 185 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 1: the last couple of games. I'm curiously if we will 186 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,319 Speaker 1: be for this next matchup, James Connor against the Lions. 187 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 1: I love this Cardinals Lions game. I am so excited 188 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: to watch up. It is my favorite matchup of the week. 189 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 1: James Connor has over twenty fantasy points per game on 190 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: DraftKings this season. They do project Detroit to be the 191 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 1: number one rushing defense for Week three. What do you 192 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 1: think Connor can do against them? 193 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 5: I think he's going to succeed. I think Marvin Harrison 194 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 5: having such a good game scares Detroit because McBride's an 195 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 5: exceptional tight end. So again, when you face Arizona, you 196 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 5: have to make choices. You're gonna play spy defense with 197 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 5: Kyler Murray, you may Detroit may roll over coverage with Harrison. 198 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 5: You have to take McBride seriously, and these weapons aren't 199 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 5: going away. I think Connor's going to have a very 200 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 5: big year. 201 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:29,959 Speaker 1: I think he's an. 202 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:33,080 Speaker 5: Excellent player, So I think Arizona. I think when you 203 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:38,559 Speaker 5: have a generationally elusive quarterback, with a top tight end, 204 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 5: with an emerging star at wide receiver, it's made for 205 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 5: running backs to have good seasons. I think Connor is 206 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,080 Speaker 5: going to have a pro Bowl level season. 207 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 1: On the other side, you we'll go to the wide 208 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 1: receivers here on the other side of this matchup am 209 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: and Ross Saint Brown against the Cardinals. Saint Brown just 210 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 1: fifteen Fantasy points per game so far this season, outside 211 00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 1: the top twenty, surprisingly from where he was being drafted. 212 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: What do you expect from him on the other side 213 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 1: of this one. 214 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,719 Speaker 5: I think he has a big game. You're going to 215 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 5: get into. You're not going to hold down Arizona. Detroit's 216 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,840 Speaker 5: not going to keep Arizona to fourteen points. So Detroit's 217 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 5: going to have to score. Plus when you're on the 218 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 5: road against in Arizona, they play pretty well at home. 219 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 5: Even if you get a lead, you're going to keep 220 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 5: the foot on the pedal. Also, Ben Johnson has not 221 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,200 Speaker 5: had a couple of great weeks so Detroit. Even though 222 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 5: Detroit beat the Rams, I think Detroit feels like they've 223 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:32,080 Speaker 5: played really weak football. I think Detroit's going to come 224 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 5: in here with their hair on fire a little bit 225 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 5: and they want to they want to re establish their 226 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 5: offensive identity. I mean, Hutchison was great last week. That's 227 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 5: been established. He's now like all world Miles Garrett level, TJ. 228 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 5: Watt level. I think this is a I think this 229 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 5: game feels like thirty three thirty I think it's a 230 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 5: really incredibly entertaining game, and I think most of the 231 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:54,079 Speaker 5: skilled people in this game are going. 232 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 1: To play well. Those are our favorite picks for Week three. 233 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 1: We'll try and keep the good times roll in College 234 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 1: and remember everybody can play Fantasypros dot Com Slash Challenge. 235 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 1: Thanks again for joining As always, thanks again to Colin 236 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,559 Speaker 1: for joining us every week this season.

That's Fantasypros dot 241 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 1: Com Slash Challenge. All right, guys, let's dive into our 242 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,080 Speaker 1: biggest questions here for Week three, starting off with Texans 243 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 1: at Vikings. Despite having a lot of appealing options, the 244 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 1: only Texan with multiple strong fantasy weeks so far to 245 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 1: start the year is Nicocollins for Houston's number two option. Debro. 246 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:37,560 Speaker 1: Will week three against the Vikings be more of a 247 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: Tank Dell week, a Stefan Diggs week, a Joe Mixon 248 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: week if he's healthy. It seems like so far he's not. 249 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 1: As of the time, we're recording, what do you expect 250 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 1: for the non Nico Collins guys in this game? 251 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 3: I mean, we're. 252 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 2: Seeing Nico outside of him stepping up as the clear 253 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 2: wide receiver one. I think it's gonna lean more in 254 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 2: Tank Dell's direction this week. I mean, you look at 255 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 2: the coverage shells for the Vikings, a lot of two 256 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 2: high second highest rate in the NFL. Actually, excuse me, 257 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 2: the highest rate almost seventy nine percent of their snaps, 258 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 2: and that's lean more in Dell's direction almost seventeen percent 259 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:12,959 Speaker 2: target share. So I think, looking at just the coverage matchup, 260 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 2: I do lean in Dell's direction. 261 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 3: Although I will give a little bit of a nod that. 262 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 2: Diggs does have a really good corner matchup against Biro Murphy. 263 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:21,040 Speaker 3: But if I got to pick one, it's dope for me. 264 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 1: Fits What do you think? 265 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:27,719 Speaker 4: I feel like I have to defer to deebro on 266 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,320 Speaker 4: the coverage stuff, But I also think with some of 267 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:34,199 Speaker 4: the stuff that Brian Flores does trying to get pressure 268 00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 4: home against quarterbacks, maybe that means like Diggs has been 269 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 4: kind of the low a don guy. His average depth 270 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 4: of target has been pretty short. So maybe if the 271 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 4: Vikings are successful bringing the pressure. Stroud's looking to release 272 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 4: the ball a little more quickly, and Diggs is the 273 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 4: guy and I so I'm not going to play up 274 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:57,000 Speaker 4: the revenge narrative for Stefan Diggs going against the Minnesota Vikings. 275 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 4: But maybe we are due four or a squeaky wheel 276 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:06,199 Speaker 4: game for Stefan Diggs. Not that he has been complaining 277 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:09,319 Speaker 4: about his usage thus far, but maybe you maybe you 278 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 4: grease up that axle before it starts getting squeaky here 279 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:16,240 Speaker 4: and we see a high target game for Steffan Diggs. 280 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 4: I don't know that's that's narrative driven, but I do 281 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:23,560 Speaker 4: think there's gonna be a better, a bigger game for 282 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:25,679 Speaker 4: Stefan Diggs coming at some point. I know he had 283 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,319 Speaker 4: the two touchdowns in Week one, there wasn't really a 284 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:33,079 Speaker 4: lot of yardage to bolster it. I think maybe at 285 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 4: some point soon here we're going to get a big 286 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 4: Stefan Diggs game, hopefully if you were. 287 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 1: Do you think the squeaky wheel game could comfort for 288 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 1: Dell as well? Again, maybe not publicly like complaining, but 289 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,559 Speaker 1: only four catches this season for under forty yards. 290 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, you just missed out on a big touchdown last week. 291 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 4: So you know it's coming like that's the thing, especially 292 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 4: if Nico and Maya Kalpa, Like I faded Nico and 293 00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 4: obviously shouldn't have. I just thought it would be a 294 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,680 Speaker 4: more equal split of targets. But clearly Nico has taken 295 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:08,320 Speaker 4: the crown as the alpha receiver for the Texans well deserved. 296 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 4: He's he's a star, So I don't know, the other 297 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 4: guys are maybe gonna have to be happier with lower 298 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 4: target chairs like Diggs. Digs average close to ten targets 299 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 4: a game during his time in Buffalo. That's just not 300 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:21,359 Speaker 4: gonna happen. 301 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 1: Here, Deebro, you know, fits kind of alluded to this. 302 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 1: I was gonna ask, are you, like surprised by how 303 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 1: much Nico has looked like you now for given the 304 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 1: other target competition in this offense. 305 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not surprised that he's playing really well. 306 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:37,360 Speaker 2: I guess if there is any surprising factor of like 307 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 2: I was in on Nico or Dell in draft season, 308 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 2: both those guys, depending. 309 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 3: On you know, where they were going in drafts. 310 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:47,040 Speaker 2: But I think if anything's been surprising, it's how much 311 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 2: he's distanced himself from those two. 312 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 3: And some of this. 313 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 2: Does kind of go back to the coverage matchups, so 314 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 2: maybe we see that lean in the other direction, especially 315 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 2: with Nico. He's been on the injury report this week. 316 00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 2: I know that he's still going to play, but I've 317 00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 2: been a little bit surprised just how big the chasm 318 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 2: has been. 319 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 5: Though. 320 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 1: Let's go to our next game here, Bears at Colts. 321 00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: Anthony Richardson's completion percentage through two games is below fifty percent. 322 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 1: The possibility for a big play is always there, of course, 323 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: but do we have to sit Colts pass catchers mainly 324 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 1: referring to Michael Pittman until further notice given what the 325 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: passing has looked like specifically fits What do you think 326 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 1: about that one? 327 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:28,640 Speaker 4: So I have Pittman ranked wide receiver twenty seven this week, 328 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 4: And yeah, Richardson is a below average NFL passer at 329 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 4: this stage of his career, and that's a concern for 330 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 4: the pass catchers tied to him, especially a guy like 331 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 4: Pittman who doesn't really make a lot of big players 332 00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 4: or score many touchdowns, so he really needs catch volume 333 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 4: to prop up his fantasy value. One counterpoint here, though, 334 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 4: and maybe this is something that can perk up the 335 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 4: spirits of down trodden Michael Pittman Investors, The Colts defense 336 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 4: is terrible, Like it is really bad. We are just 337 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 4: two games. They've given up I think more rushing yards 338 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 4: over the first two weeks of this season than any 339 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 4: team in the Super Bowl era since like the oh Man, 340 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 4: I forget what it was like the Four Chiefs or 341 00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 4: something like that. It's it's been a long time since 342 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 4: we have seen a run defense get trampled like this. 343 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 4: And we know they're not really good against outside wide 344 00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 4: receivers either. Like this is a problem. Like the Colts 345 00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 4: defense is really bad. They've given up eight hundred yards 346 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 4: of offense thirtieth and DVOA against the run, twenty ninth 347 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 4: against the past. DeForest Buckner far and away their best 348 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 4: defender on ir with an ankle injury. So yet, the 349 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 4: good news for Pittman investors, if the Colts are going 350 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 4: to be playing from behind because of this defense all year, 351 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 4: that's going to amp up the passing volume like it 352 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 4: has to. And I don't think that's the way the 353 00:16:50,920 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 4: Colts want to play necessarily with Anthony Richardson being this 354 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 4: dynamic runner and Jonathan Taylor being one of the better 355 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 4: running backs in the league. But look, the Colts just 356 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 4: aren't going to find themselves in many positive game scripts 357 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 4: with this defense. 358 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:06,400 Speaker 1: Dee Bro, what do you think about the Colts pass 359 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 1: catchers right now? And obviously Alec Pierce has been a 360 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 1: pleasant surprise, has been on the back, so he's been good, 361 00:17:11,680 --> 00:17:15,880 Speaker 1: big plays, you know. Pittman has been a disappointment. But again, 362 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 1: it's hard when you're completing under fifty percent of your 363 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:21,639 Speaker 1: passes to have multiple effective pass catchers. So what are 364 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,239 Speaker 1: you doing with you know, again, particularly Pittman because he's 365 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 1: kind of the main guy, would be interested in starting 366 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 1: in a vacuum. 367 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,640 Speaker 2: I think it's two games, and I think if any 368 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,399 Speaker 2: of the I'm not going to say it's luck because 369 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 2: Alec Pearce is playing extremely good, But if Michael Pittman 370 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 2: would have walked away with either one of those stat 371 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 2: lines over the first two games and not the games 372 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:43,639 Speaker 2: that he's had, people would feel quite different about it. 373 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 2: And Pittman's still getting a lot of volume, man, like 374 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 2: I mean, twenty eight percent targets here, thirty one percent 375 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:51,639 Speaker 2: first reach here. He hasn't done much with it. But 376 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 2: I'm still starting Pittman and I'm starting Alec Pierce. I mean, 377 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:57,680 Speaker 2: just for everybody to keep this reel here. Alec Pierce 378 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 2: is the wide receiver nine in Fantasy points per game 379 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 2: right now. So the only pass catchers that I'm not 380 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,440 Speaker 2: starting for the Colts are Josh Downs and Ady Mitchell 381 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 2: because I think they could cannibalize each other and share 382 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 2: the slot role, which we've been talking about in the 383 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 2: waive article the last two weeks. And so I'm still 384 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:17,960 Speaker 2: firing up Pittman. I'm with Fitzie. We're basically hand holding. 385 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,399 Speaker 2: I got him as wide receiver twenty eight for the week, 386 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 2: so I get the concerns and the tough matchup, but 387 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 2: I still think the volume is going to be there. 388 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,080 Speaker 1: But by the way, just because Fits brought it up 389 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 1: on the run defense, do you think deebro DeAndre Swift 390 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 1: is gonna kind of break out for scout because I 391 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:37,120 Speaker 1: faded him all draft season I've had I've really had 392 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 1: no interest in him at his costs, and I know 393 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:43,400 Speaker 1: the Colts run defense in particular has been absolutely abysmal, 394 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 1: But I just still don't find myself that excited about Swift. 395 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 1: Am I like overlooking the matchup in that sense? 396 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:52,120 Speaker 2: Nope, I think you're spot on. I mean Swift, It's 397 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 2: not just that he hasn't done anything. His offensive line 398 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 2: is not doing anything. You want to talk about the 399 00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,400 Speaker 2: crooks of all the issues in Chicago right now, And 400 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 2: we talked about that on this show during the offseason, 401 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:08,840 Speaker 2: while everybody was staring at all the shiny new toys 402 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 2: heading to Chicago, we were all talking about like, Okay, 403 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 2: well the offensive line is still a concern. 404 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 3: They didn't do anything there. So I'm not in on 405 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:17,399 Speaker 3: DeAndre Swift. 406 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 2: I think if DeAndre Swift keeps stinking it up, Khalil 407 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,440 Speaker 2: Herbert is going to make himself known and more present 408 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 2: in this backfield than he has been in the first 409 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 2: two weeks. That's gonna happen because he's definitely a much 410 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,119 Speaker 2: better rusher of the football. So no, I'm not in 411 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 2: on Swift. I don't have a lot of hope there. 412 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 2: I do think because like the point that Pat brought up, 413 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:38,639 Speaker 2: if we see anything, I'm not gonna say out. 414 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 3: Of the weeds emerge this week. 415 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 2: I think Caleb Williams could have a little bit of 416 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 2: a bounce back and show some hope or some faith 417 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 2: this week. 418 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 3: Considering the matchup, let's. 419 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:51,639 Speaker 1: Go to our next question here, this is I'm kind 420 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 1: of looping in two games together. One of them is 421 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 1: Giants at Brown's. The other one is Lions at Cardinals. 422 00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 1: He questioned Malik Neighbors and Marvin Harrison Junior both really 423 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 1: a arrived with huge week twos. You know, Neighbors wasn't 424 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 1: terrible in week one, but he didn't get the usage 425 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:06,399 Speaker 1: we liked. Obviously, we know what happened with Marvin Harrison 426 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 1: Junior in week one. Week two entirely different story. Both 427 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 1: of them looked like absolute studs. Rovin Harrison Junior basically 428 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:13,960 Speaker 1: did it all in one quarter, but that one quarter 429 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 1: was enough to be an elite fantasy performance. Neighbors just 430 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 1: crushed throughout the game. Which of those two rookie studs 431 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 1: do you like better? In week three, the Neighbors at 432 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 1: the Browns or Harrison at home against the Lions. De Bros. 433 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 3: Start with you here, Marvin Rison Junior. 434 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,439 Speaker 2: I think it's the matchup as well as I mean 435 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,119 Speaker 2: as well as you want to talk about quarterback play. 436 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 3: Either way, I'm. 437 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:39,760 Speaker 2: Not saying I'm fading elite Neighbors, but we just got 438 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:42,159 Speaker 2: to talk. You know, mention what it is. It's an 439 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 2: uphill battle. I mean, you've got Daniel Jones gonna hold 440 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 2: him down this week as well as the outside corners 441 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 2: for Cleveland are good. So for me, it's Marvin Rison Junior. 442 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 2: And yes, he was absolutely fantastic in week two. I mean, 443 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 2: good lord man, a thirty eight percent target chare. He 444 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:01,920 Speaker 2: had almost seventy percent of the freaking area yards. Yeah, 445 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 2: I've got Marvin Arson Junior right now ranked as a 446 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:09,200 Speaker 2: wide receiver one. Milik Neighbors I have as wide receiver 447 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 2: twenty on the week, and I actually think I need 448 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 2: to probably drop him just a little bit more, probably 449 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:14,880 Speaker 2: wide receiver twenty four. 450 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 1: Fit's what do you think about these two rookies for 451 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:17,919 Speaker 1: this week? 452 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 4: I'm running counter to Debro and counter to ECR here. 453 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 4: I've got Milak Neighbors ranked wide receiver sixteen and Marvin 454 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:29,399 Speaker 4: Harrison ranked wide receiver seventeen. Way below consensus on Marvin. 455 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,879 Speaker 4: And it's not that I don't like Marvin, but thirty 456 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:36,479 Speaker 4: eight percent target share, Debro, I mean Milik Neighbors sixty 457 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 4: four percent target share last week. 458 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 3: We're comparing size here, man, Yeah he is, he is. 459 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 4: Already that the star attraction in Brian Dables' offense and 460 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:52,639 Speaker 4: Harrison is great, but is target share is twenty one 461 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 4: percent for the season. That's fine. You can be a 462 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 4: star with the target shair between twenty and twenty five percent. 463 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 4: And I know I'm way below consensus on Harrison was 464 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 4: last week, and I got burned in the rankings for that. 465 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 4: I think the difference here is that Harrison is just 466 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:14,479 Speaker 4: one component in a healthy and robust Arizona Cardinals offense. 467 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:18,720 Speaker 4: He is the scrambled eggs in a nutritious, well balanced breakfast. 468 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:22,639 Speaker 4: Malik Neighbors is the breakfast burrito. Like, He's the entire 469 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:27,640 Speaker 4: breakfast in one delicious package. So like, I just think 470 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:31,720 Speaker 4: he's more essential to his offense than Harrison is to 471 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:32,320 Speaker 4: his breakfast. 472 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 1: Burritos are elite. Oh you're selling me on, Neighbors. 473 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 3: I'm hungry now, good lord, I'm recording this in the morning. 474 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 3: I haven't had breakfast. 475 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 4: Now, I bet gotta you gotta go to Torchi. 476 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:44,640 Speaker 2: I was gonna say, Pat, I got real quickly your 477 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:46,919 Speaker 2: perfect idea of your perfect breakfast burrito. 478 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 3: What is in that burrito?

I'm good with that 480 00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:57,120 Speaker 4: some sort of. 481 00:22:58,880 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 3: Pat wins today. 482 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: That one's yes, I've actually got right now in the 483 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 1: fridge and I will be eating it after we finished 484 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 1: recording this. My dad makes these amazing like seafood breakfast enchiladas. 485 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,320 Speaker 1: It's got like shrimp and crab meat and eggs and 486 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:15,880 Speaker 1: bacon and chilada sauce and cheese.

So I have them for like 491 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,680 Speaker 1: two weeks. It's just one every morning, and I've got 492 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:29,399 Speaker 1: a couple left in the fridge currently that I'm very 493 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 1: excited about as well.

I'm a happy camper. Yeah, just 500 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: before we move out this this these two games really 501 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:54,880 Speaker 1: if Molik neighbors if the Giants are facing a team 502 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:56,639 Speaker 1: other than the Browns, like a team that is not 503 00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 1: this like scary defense that we're thinking about, would he 504 00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:01,679 Speaker 1: be in the wide receiver one range, because it feels 505 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 1: like from what we saw last week, like he really 506 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:06,879 Speaker 1: should be considered generally in that top twelve, which is 507 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:08,359 Speaker 1: like what we talked about in the draft season. We 508 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 1: were like, this is the cheapest Milikue Neighbors will ever be. 509 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:13,399 Speaker 1: He's going to get all the targets. Like it played 510 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 1: out exactly like our optimistic views predicted it might play out, 511 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,479 Speaker 1: at least in week two. So if he was facing 512 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 1: like the league average defense, like whoever's sixteenth in the 513 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,160 Speaker 1: league in defense that we think, would he be ranked 514 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:26,119 Speaker 1: up in that in the top. 515 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,439 Speaker 3: Twelve Debro, Yeah, he would be. 516 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 2: If it was an average to below average defense, I 517 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:36,640 Speaker 2: think he the floor is top fifteen and probably put 518 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 2: respect on his name, probably as as a wide receiver one. 519 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, and Fit's obviously it's not an average defense 520 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 1: that it's going against. But I just wanted to kind 521 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: of highlight that he has kind of, at least in 522 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:48,879 Speaker 1: my opinion, earned the right to be ranked higher. This 523 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: is just a particularly tough matchup. 524 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 4: For sure, and I think both Molikue Neighbors and Marvin 525 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 4: Harrison Junior are going to be first round Fantasy draft 526 00:24:57,760 --> 00:24:58,880 Speaker 4: picks in twenty twenty five. 527 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 1: Agree with Thattal, I totally agree as well. We're consensus 528 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 1: across the board. Let's go to the next game here, 529 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 1: Packers at Titans. Maybe not the most intriguing matchup, assuming 530 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 1: it's Milk Willis again. As of right now, I guess 531 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 1: they're still leaving open up the possibility it could be 532 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 1: Jordan Love. I'm still kind of operating under the assumption 533 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 1: it won't be. Maybe that's pessimistic. I just can't see 534 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 1: how it would be, how that would be smart. But 535 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,119 Speaker 1: I went to highlight this game just basically the insane 536 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:24,119 Speaker 1: usage we saw from Josh Jacobs in Week two. So 537 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:26,639 Speaker 1: fitz Oski is the Packers guy. Did we learn anything 538 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:29,640 Speaker 1: from Milik Willis's first start in Green Bay about how 539 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,080 Speaker 1: to approach the Packers in fantasy? As long as Jordan 540 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:32,879 Speaker 1: Love is not playing. 541 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,639 Speaker 4: If it is Malik Willis again, I think you have 542 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:38,879 Speaker 4: to sit all of the Green Bay pass catchers with 543 00:25:38,960 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 4: the possible exception of Jaden Reid, just because they are 544 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,840 Speaker 4: fond of manufacturing easy touches for him with little wide 545 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 4: receiver screens reverses. Reid had two catches for nine yards 546 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:55,639 Speaker 4: and two rushes for thirty seven yards last week against 547 00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:59,440 Speaker 4: the Cults, Willis only had fourteen pass attempts in that game. 548 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 4: They're they're trying to hide him, and to his credit, 549 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:06,239 Speaker 4: he was efficient twelve completions one hundred and twenty two 550 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 4: yards in a touchdown. But even with the high efficiency, 551 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 4: the passing output just isn't enough to feed a family. 552 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:17,840 Speaker 4: So yeah, like, you can't start Christian Watson yet. And 553 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 4: it's tough because I know some people are going to 554 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 4: need a show me game from Christian Watson before they're 555 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 4: comfortable putting him back in the lineup. So they're gonna 556 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 4: have to wait till Jordan Love has that you know, 557 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 4: feeds Christian Watson and helps him get that show me game. 558 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:34,639 Speaker 4: It will be interesting. And I'm with you, Wherma, I 559 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:38,160 Speaker 4: do think we most likely don't get Jordan Love this week. 560 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:42,119 Speaker 4: The Packers have been one of the most cautious teams 561 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:44,879 Speaker 4: in the league about bringing back injured players, and this 562 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 4: obviously isn't just any injured player, it's their franchise quarterback. 563 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:53,159 Speaker 4: They have a game against the undefeated Minnesota Vikings in 564 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 4: Week four that's gonna be a pretty big divisional showdown. 565 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 4: I don't know if they want to push it. 566 00:26:57,880 --> 00:27:00,359 Speaker 1: Dee Bro, what do you think? And can we expect 567 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: another you know, sixty carr I know as a sixty 568 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:05,880 Speaker 1: carries but ridiculous usage for Josh Jacobs again. 569 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:09,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think we're gonna get twenty five plus carries 570 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:12,200 Speaker 2: for Jacobs this week. And I'm with I'm with Fitzy 571 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:15,680 Speaker 2: on this one. The media is pushing this extremely hard. 572 00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,120 Speaker 2: Jordan Love is not playing this week. Anybody that's watched 573 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 2: the practice footage like he's not moving around good enough 574 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 2: to play quarterback and not only just like to be 575 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 2: functional on the offense, but to keep himself upright, you know, 576 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,640 Speaker 2: to do what he needs to do to avoid tacklers 577 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:33,959 Speaker 2: and stuff. So I think Malik Willson is definitely going 578 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,400 Speaker 2: to start. I think it's smoking mirrors and I think 579 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 2: it's a ton of work for Josh Jacobs. Yet again, 580 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,639 Speaker 2: you could run on the Titans. The strength of that 581 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 2: defense is their secondary and I think Green Bay is 582 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 2: going to stay away from it. And I'm pretty much 583 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:49,880 Speaker 2: with Fitzi here, except I'll I'll push back just. 584 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:50,360 Speaker 3: A little bit. 585 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:53,479 Speaker 2: I'm not starting any Green Bay Packers pass catcher. Like 586 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 2: to FITs' point, it's not enough passing volume, and you 587 00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 2: want to talk about like only fourteen pass attempts. That 588 00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:02,480 Speaker 2: was a it's a good matchup of the secondary. We 589 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:04,680 Speaker 2: just talked about how bad the Colts are as a 590 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:07,680 Speaker 2: past defense. What are they gonna do when it's Tennessee, 591 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 2: And that past defense is even better than what they 592 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 2: faced last week the seven attempts eight. 593 00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 3: It's bad. 594 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's funny because you know, Deebro and I 595 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 4: kind of spent the off season warning people that Matt 596 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 4: Lafleur really doesn't like to go to just one workhorse 597 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 4: running back, and then we get the runout we've had 598 00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:32,879 Speaker 4: with Marshaun Lloyd going on injured reserve and Jordan Love hurt, 599 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:37,880 Speaker 4: and last week Josh Jacobs thirty two carries the most 600 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 4: by any Green Bay Packer running back in a single 601 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 4: game since Ryan Grant in two thousand and eight. 602 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 2: That's a stat pole right there, Josh Jacobs going full 603 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 2: Dereck Henry mode. 604 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:51,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I mean he's Jacob's is somebody that I 605 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 1: at cost was fading during draft season, and obviously the 606 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 1: EU signe has just been way more, way, way higher 607 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 1: than anticipated. Obviously from that stat All right, let's go 608 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:04,080 Speaker 1: to the next game here, Eagles at Saints. My question 609 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:06,920 Speaker 1: here is can Philly be the team to finally slow 610 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:09,480 Speaker 1: down this Saints offense? They have been amazing. They have 611 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 1: scored every time that Derek Carr has been leading a drive. 612 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 1: It has been ridiculou They've been averaging over thirty points 613 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 1: a game in the first half of the games. One 614 00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:20,719 Speaker 1: of those games came against the Panthers, the other didn't. 615 00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 1: Those it wasn't just beating up on Carolina. They looked 616 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: really good for both weeks of this season. Debro, do 617 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 1: you think the Eagles can be the team to finally 618 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:30,120 Speaker 1: slow down the Saints? Or is this train going to 619 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 1: keep rolling? 620 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 2: Train is keep rolling down the truck baby, and they 621 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 2: are not slowing them down. I've actually been very disappointed 622 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:41,719 Speaker 2: in the Philadelphia Eagles pass defense through two games. And 623 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 2: let's just put the stop for just a second and 624 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 2: put a little bit more respect on Derek Carr's name. 625 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,240 Speaker 3: He is a QB two in Fantasy. 626 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 2: QB two in Fantasy he leads the NFL in yards 627 00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 2: per attempt, passer rating CPOE, and fantasy points per dropback 628 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 2: as bonkers, like, there is no way, shape, form, or fashion. 629 00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 2: And I think it was even a little bit pro 630 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 2: Derek car towards the end of the draft season and stuff. 631 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 2: Nobody could have told you this is what was gonna 632 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:13,200 Speaker 2: happen in the first two weeks. And I don't think 633 00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 2: Philly is gonna be able to stop them at all. 634 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 2: I mean, so far, the Philly pass defense has allowed 635 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 2: the seventh highest passing yards per game, seventh highest arts 636 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 2: per attempt, and oh guess what, they have. 637 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 3: No pass rush. 638 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 2: They legit have the seventh lowest pressure rate in the NFL. 639 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 2: So clean pockets, secondary not playing good. Let's go just 640 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 2: air it out. Saints put up some points. 641 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 1: Fitz, what do you think we're gonna get from the 642 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:38,000 Speaker 1: SANTSU seek another forty burger? 643 00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 4: I don't know about that, but yeah, Echoing Deebro's thoughts 644 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 4: on the Eagles, I mean, we just saw the Falcon 645 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:49,240 Speaker 4: zip down field and no time lickety split at the 646 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 4: end of that game on Monday Night to score the 647 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 4: game winning touchdown against the Eagles pass defense, Like Quinjon 648 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 4: Mitchell might end up being a really good ATFL cornerback, 649 00:30:56,880 --> 00:30:59,840 Speaker 4: but he alone was not going to fix a secondary 650 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,360 Speaker 4: just completely melted down over the second half of last season. 651 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 4: And right now, I mean that the Saints' offense is 652 00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 4: hurtling down the Autubahn at one hundred and seventy miles 653 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 4: an hour like it debro hit on some of the stats. Yeah, 654 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 4: eleven point four yards per attempt for Derek Carr, and 655 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:19,320 Speaker 4: yet he's only averaging what two hundred and twenty one 656 00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 4: point five passing yards a game because he barely has 657 00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:24,240 Speaker 4: to throw. I mean, they're just going up three touchdowns 658 00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 4: on opponents in the first half. Saints are averaging six 659 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 4: point eight yards per play on offense, cars completion percentage 660 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 4: seventy six point nine percent, Alvin Kamara fifty or excuse me, 661 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 4: five point seven yards per carry and already has five touchdowns, 662 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 4: and Rashid Shiheed averaging a tidy eighteen point eight yards 663 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 4: per target. Like this offense is just humming kudos to 664 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,320 Speaker 4: Clint Kubiak. We know it's not going to be this 665 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:55,240 Speaker 4: good all season long, but the Eagles do not look 666 00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:58,040 Speaker 4: like the team that's going to you know, throw up 667 00:31:58,040 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 4: the stop sign. 668 00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 2: Them quick quick question, boys, do you think Clint Kubiak 669 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:03,280 Speaker 2: gets a head coaching job next year? 670 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 3: Because I do. If this keeps happening, he's gonna get 671 00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 3: some interviews. 672 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:09,520 Speaker 1: I think he definitely will get interviews. I like that. 673 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:13,400 Speaker 1: I think that is an absolute lock. The only reason 674 00:32:13,480 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 1: I would not say definitively gets like an actual coaching 675 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:20,480 Speaker 1: job is just because we did see. Like obviously, Ben 676 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 1: Johnson's been there a couple of years. He decided to 677 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:25,479 Speaker 1: say Bobby Slowick, didn't you know he interviewed, but then 678 00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:28,640 Speaker 1: didn't get that job right away. So maybe teams are 679 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 1: like being a little more patient and wanted to see 680 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,320 Speaker 1: it for like one more year out of these young 681 00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:37,240 Speaker 1: hot shot coordinators. That's just speculative though, like I would, 682 00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 1: I would my job would be on the floor if 683 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 1: he isn't getting multiple interviews at least if this keeps up. 684 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:46,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's it's early, but so far this offense looks great. 685 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,960 Speaker 4: We know it's not gonna look this perfect all season long, 686 00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:50,400 Speaker 4: but so far it's just been a. 687 00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 1: Really they're making every game look like Alabama against Wisconsin 688 00:32:54,160 --> 00:33:03,120 Speaker 1: fits Oh oh, my call the police has been a murder. 689 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 4: I think I think Alabama did better than six point 690 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 4: eight yards per play against the Baddress last week. But yes, 691 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:13,320 Speaker 4: thank you. 692 00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:15,120 Speaker 1: What do you think do you think Kubiak is getting 693 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:16,240 Speaker 1: a job after this season? 694 00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:17,080 Speaker 3: I do. 695 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 2: I think he's probably gonna. I think he's gonna get 696 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:20,960 Speaker 2: a lot of interviews. And I think the thing about 697 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:23,800 Speaker 2: what Slowick and Ben Jonson, both of them, it seemed 698 00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 2: more like situations where they went back to their respective teams, 699 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:30,480 Speaker 2: like they didn't want to be head coaches just yet. 700 00:33:31,000 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 2: So and I think it was both good moves for 701 00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 2: both those coordinators. But I think I Kubiak's gonna do 702 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 2: interviews and stuff like that. I think he definitely can 703 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 2: get a job. 704 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 1: Is there a spot you'd most likely to see him? Oot? 705 00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:47,400 Speaker 2: So just off the time, No, let me see, I 706 00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 2: was gonna say, I think Denver's the low hanging fruit. 707 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 2: I think that Sean I don't even know if Sean 708 00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 2: Payton makes it through the entire season. Guys, Like, is 709 00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:56,600 Speaker 2: that crazy of me to think that, like Sean Payton 710 00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:58,920 Speaker 2: could get fired in season, like if they continue to 711 00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:03,960 Speaker 2: book is hapless. I mean, it's it's looked rough so far, 712 00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:08,720 Speaker 2: but looking down the other teams, Oh, here's a good one. 713 00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:12,359 Speaker 2: If Chicago continues to stick it up that he can 714 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:16,000 Speaker 2: he be paired with Caleb Williams next year. I give 715 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:19,440 Speaker 2: me play Action, give me motion baby, maybe should love it. 716 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 1: The other one that I would like would be Jacksonville. 717 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 1: If this thing continues to go. 718 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:26,160 Speaker 2: Because Doug Peterson feels like he has no clue what 719 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:26,799 Speaker 2: he's doing, I. 720 00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 1: Would really agree with that. Seared with with Trevor Lawrence. 721 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:32,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, and those weapons. 722 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:37,280 Speaker 1: TD Tuddy taking it to the house in for six. 723 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,759 Speaker 1: Whatever you call a touchdown.

It 761 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:25,240 Speaker 1: is an unstoppable force JK. Dobbins against an unimmovable object 762 00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:28,359 Speaker 1: Steelers defense. Who wins, Debro. 763 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:32,959 Speaker 3: It's gonna be JK. Dobbins. He's gonna win. And Dude, 764 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 3: I just continue to be. 765 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:37,399 Speaker 2: Floored by what he's doing right now. I mean, he's 766 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:41,000 Speaker 2: the RB four in fantasy. That's just crazy, man. And 767 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:43,800 Speaker 2: it's not just like, Okay, the offensive line is playing 768 00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:47,840 Speaker 2: extremely good for the Chargers. They are first in yards 769 00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:51,879 Speaker 2: before contact right now. But outside of that, I mean, 770 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:55,360 Speaker 2: Dobbins is near the top in every tackle breaking metric 771 00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:58,240 Speaker 2: you look at. And it's not only those two factors, 772 00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:00,400 Speaker 2: but the Steelers run defense can be had. I mean 773 00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 2: they're giving up the tenth highest miss tackle rate and 774 00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:05,360 Speaker 2: the thirteenth highest success rate to his own runs. And 775 00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:07,400 Speaker 2: Dobbins sixty three percent of his runs have been on 776 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:09,640 Speaker 2: zone runs this year, so I think it's going to 777 00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:12,719 Speaker 2: be yet another matchup where Dobbins is going to end 778 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:14,120 Speaker 2: up with ninety plus rushing yards. 779 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:17,360 Speaker 1: This week, Fitz, we talked about a bit about Dobbins 780 00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 1: on the Thursday show. For the folks who are just 781 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,000 Speaker 1: listening to the Friday show, what do you expect from 782 00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:23,160 Speaker 1: him against Pittsburgh. 783 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:25,959 Speaker 4: I'm dialing down expectations a little bit. I mean, he's 784 00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:28,840 Speaker 4: had more than one hundred and thirty rushing yards with 785 00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:30,960 Speaker 4: a touchdown in each of his first two games, but 786 00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:34,239 Speaker 4: he was going against the Raiders and the Panthers, not 787 00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 4: exactly the stiffest competition, much tougher matchup on the road 788 00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 4: in Pittsburgh, and Pittsburgh is tenth in DVOA, I believe 789 00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:47,239 Speaker 4: against the run in their two games so far, they 790 00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:50,160 Speaker 4: held Bejon Robinson the sixty eight rushing yards on eighteen 791 00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 4: carries and Javonte Williams to seventeen yards on eleven carries. 792 00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:57,920 Speaker 4: Granted that the Denver offense is pretty broken right now, 793 00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:00,640 Speaker 4: but it is going to be tough for sledding for JK, 794 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:03,920 Speaker 4: no question, it's gonna be a fun matchup, because Debro 795 00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:07,680 Speaker 4: said at the Chargers offensive line has been terrific so far. 796 00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:11,960 Speaker 4: Still very possible Dobbins has a good day, fascinating matchup. 797 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:15,320 Speaker 4: I can't wait to see it. But I am toning 798 00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 4: down expectations a little bit for JK. Dobbins, and I 799 00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 4: know Debro's not gonna like this. I do have DeAndre 800 00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:26,000 Speaker 4: Swift ranked ahead of JK. Dobbins on the matchup. Dude, 801 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:30,160 Speaker 4: I mean like the Colts can't stop anyone man. 802 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:35,879 Speaker 2: The Bears can't block anybody, Fitzy, they have. 803 00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:37,640 Speaker 4: A couple of gut The interior of the line has 804 00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:39,959 Speaker 4: been a problem. I still think their tackles are okay, 805 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:42,480 Speaker 4: at least in the running game, but yeah, they have 806 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:45,880 Speaker 4: had issues. That's that's bad versus bad upfront the trenches 807 00:38:45,920 --> 00:38:49,400 Speaker 4: in that matchup. But yeah, we'll see this one's good 808 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:52,480 Speaker 4: versus good. So maybe maybe that's the wrong call by me. 809 00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 1: Whether or not it's correct. I echo Debro's disgust at 810 00:38:56,600 --> 00:39:00,640 Speaker 1: the thought of Swift being ranked ahead of Dobbins. Wrong 811 00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:05,680 Speaker 1: or right, But you know I've mentioned this on Thursday. Fits. 812 00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:08,840 Speaker 1: You know, Dobbins has faced the Steelers three times in 813 00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:11,320 Speaker 1: his career, and the series always are very good on defense, 814 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:14,120 Speaker 1: so this isn't anything new that they're really good defensively 815 00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:16,719 Speaker 1: this year. In his three games, and you know this 816 00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:18,560 Speaker 1: one was in twenty twenty, the other two were in 817 00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:21,839 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two. In three games, forty seven attempts three 818 00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:24,400 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty six yards. That's almost seven yards per 819 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:27,399 Speaker 1: attempt and he has a touchdown there. The worst game 820 00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:30,359 Speaker 1: he's had has been seventeen for ninety three. The other 821 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:32,480 Speaker 1: ones were fifteen four hundred and twenty in a touchdown 822 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:34,560 Speaker 1: and fifteen four hundred and thirteen. So he has done 823 00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:37,719 Speaker 1: well against the Steelers in the past. He's with a 824 00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:39,520 Speaker 1: different team, it was a couple of years ago. I 825 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:42,839 Speaker 1: get that, but just highlighting that he has it went 826 00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:45,360 Speaker 1: healthy and he certainly looks healthy at least through two weeks, 827 00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:48,400 Speaker 1: he's been able to do damage against this defense before. 828 00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 1: Where are you ranking him, Deebro? Did you say, what? What? 829 00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 1: Where is he for? 830 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 2: I've got him at RB sixteen and considering what he's 831 00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:57,640 Speaker 2: been doing, it could be a slight to him. 832 00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:00,200 Speaker 3: But I think like mid to high end RB two. 833 00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:02,879 Speaker 1: And then fits you're down like back at like low 834 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:04,000 Speaker 1: end RB two right. 835 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 4: I think high end RB three right now, and maybe 836 00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:09,600 Speaker 4: that's a mistake because they are gonna need to give 837 00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:12,560 Speaker 4: him heavy volume like they have to keep TJ. Watt 838 00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:15,759 Speaker 4: off justin Herbert. Joe Alt has played great so far, 839 00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:18,240 Speaker 4: but TJ. Watt is still gonna be a stern test 840 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,920 Speaker 4: for Joe Alt. So I think they're gonna want to 841 00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:23,560 Speaker 4: run the ball often, and I don't think you need 842 00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:25,879 Speaker 4: to talk Greg Roman into running the ball that way. 843 00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:29,480 Speaker 1: In ECR. He's much closer to fits by the way, 844 00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:33,879 Speaker 1: he's RB twenty three in in halfvpr ECR. So most 845 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:37,279 Speaker 1: of the industry is a little down again, likely given 846 00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:40,319 Speaker 1: the matchup, let's go to kind of the reverse of this. 847 00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:44,200 Speaker 1: A very stoppable force the Raiders run game versus is 848 00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:48,400 Speaker 1: a very movable object to the Panthers defense. Who loses 849 00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:49,400 Speaker 1: in this one. 850 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:51,760 Speaker 3: Debro Panthers run defense. 851 00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:55,359 Speaker 2: I think looking at just the matchup, and I know 852 00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:57,320 Speaker 2: it's been bad for Zamir White. I'm not going to 853 00:40:57,360 --> 00:40:59,080 Speaker 2: shy away from then. I told people to draft him 854 00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:01,560 Speaker 2: in the off season and chasing the ballume and stuff. 855 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,800 Speaker 2: Antonio Pierce has still come out and been very adamant 856 00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:08,840 Speaker 2: about getting Zamir White twenty carries. I think that, and 857 00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:12,480 Speaker 2: this has been a Raiders offense that has been extremely 858 00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:16,359 Speaker 2: pass heavy. Didn't see that coming, but I do think 859 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:18,120 Speaker 2: that they are going to want to run the ball 860 00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:21,120 Speaker 2: in this matchup. And I know Zamir has not been good, 861 00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:24,400 Speaker 2: but this matchup is fantastic. I mean, Carolina Panthers are 862 00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:27,239 Speaker 2: given him the fourth highest rushing success rate and the 863 00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:30,520 Speaker 2: second most rushing yards per game. So if there's ever 864 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:34,960 Speaker 2: a week to start Samir White, it's Week three. I've 865 00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:37,920 Speaker 2: got him as RB twenty four right now in my ranks. 866 00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:39,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, what do you think fits? I mean, we've talked 867 00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:41,440 Speaker 1: a lot about how the Panthers are just kind of 868 00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:44,280 Speaker 1: like an auto start team against them with your running backs. 869 00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:47,279 Speaker 1: But Zamir White has been bad. I mean I've bean 870 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:51,440 Speaker 1: watching that Ravens game. He was abysmal. So do you 871 00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:54,120 Speaker 1: think that this is kind of his breakout came for 872 00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:55,840 Speaker 1: the managers who invested in him. 873 00:41:56,320 --> 00:42:00,200 Speaker 4: You have to hope because if he does not have 874 00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:03,359 Speaker 4: a decent fantasy day this week, I think we're going 875 00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 4: to see Zamir White dropped in a lot of leagues 876 00:42:06,200 --> 00:42:09,640 Speaker 4: next week. But he's going against a defense that has 877 00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:12,520 Speaker 4: allowed three hundred and ninety nine rushing yards and three 878 00:42:12,560 --> 00:42:16,520 Speaker 4: touchdown runs so far, and they don't have our friend 879 00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:20,120 Speaker 4: Derek Brown at defensive tackle. I know defensive tackle Ashn 880 00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:22,799 Speaker 4: Robinson was banged up for them. Not sure what his 881 00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:24,880 Speaker 4: status is. I think he came back to practice, but 882 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:29,880 Speaker 4: it's still a bad run defense. And yeah, Antonio Peers 883 00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:33,440 Speaker 4: for whatever reason, the twenty carry mark is a magic 884 00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:36,400 Speaker 4: number for him, and it seems like this is the 885 00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:38,239 Speaker 4: kind of game where the game script's going to be 886 00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:43,480 Speaker 4: favorable with the Raiders at home. You know, if they 887 00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:46,000 Speaker 4: don't win comfortably, they should at least be in a 888 00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:48,640 Speaker 4: close game and be able to run the ball quite 889 00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:50,719 Speaker 4: a bit. So yeah, I mean, as good as that 890 00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:53,520 Speaker 4: passing game has been with DeVante Adams and brock Bauers 891 00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:56,840 Speaker 4: and Gardner Minshew's averaging like over two hundred and sixty 892 00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:59,480 Speaker 4: passing yards a game, this does seem like a game 893 00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:01,320 Speaker 4: where the Raiders are going to want to get the 894 00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:02,520 Speaker 4: running game going. 895 00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:06,799 Speaker 2: To Fitzi's point, Shy tuttle foot injury hasn't practiced one 896 00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:09,799 Speaker 2: of their d tackles, Ashawn Robinson DMP on Wednesday came 897 00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:12,920 Speaker 2: back to a limited session with any issue on Thursday. 898 00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:16,600 Speaker 1: Sameer White is RB twenty four in ECR right now. 899 00:43:16,640 --> 00:43:18,360 Speaker 1: That's actually gotten up a couple of days since the 900 00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:21,160 Speaker 1: start of the week, so he's into back end RB 901 00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:24,080 Speaker 1: two territory according to the experts. Let's go to Dolphins 902 00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:26,840 Speaker 1: at Seahawks. This question is really obvious. How low in 903 00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:30,200 Speaker 1: the rankings are we planning to drop Dolphins players with 904 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:34,280 Speaker 1: Skyler Thompson at quarterback? Obviously Tua is now on IR 905 00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:36,400 Speaker 1: so he's going to miss a chunk of time possibly 906 00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:37,759 Speaker 1: the rest of the season. They're talking about it like 907 00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:39,200 Speaker 1: it's not going to be the case, but we'll see 908 00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:42,200 Speaker 1: how this thing develops. But with Skyler Thompson there, how 909 00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:43,520 Speaker 1: are we ranking the Dolphins players? 910 00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:47,040 Speaker 2: Debro, I still got eight Chan as an RB one. 911 00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:49,719 Speaker 2: I mean, you can't shy away from the volume that 912 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:50,520 Speaker 2: he got last week. 913 00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:51,200 Speaker 3: There's no way. 914 00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:54,239 Speaker 2: I hope that that type of volume doesn't continue. But 915 00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:58,280 Speaker 2: even twenty touches for devon a Chan, regardless of whoever, 916 00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:00,480 Speaker 2: even if it was me back there playing quarter is 917 00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:04,560 Speaker 2: still very valuable in fantasy. Tyreek Hill, I'm gonna have 918 00:44:04,680 --> 00:44:08,799 Speaker 2: him somewhere as a mid range wide receiver two and 919 00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:11,399 Speaker 2: Jim and Wattle is a low end two to high 920 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:13,520 Speaker 2: end wide receiver three. I just I don't have any 921 00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:18,160 Speaker 2: faith in Skyer Thompson, and I know that those rankings. 922 00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:20,880 Speaker 2: I'm gonna be watching ECR and where they are the 923 00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:23,840 Speaker 2: entire weekend because I want to be very cognizant of that, 924 00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:27,240 Speaker 2: because I understand with both of those players, with Waddle 925 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:31,160 Speaker 2: and Tyreek, it could take one play, one play and 926 00:44:31,239 --> 00:44:34,600 Speaker 2: they house one screen pass and take it to the house. 927 00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:37,560 Speaker 2: They have that type of upside. I've also seen sky 928 00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:39,920 Speaker 2: or Thompson play football in the NFL and it has 929 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:42,600 Speaker 2: not been pretty, and I don't think that that changes 930 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:47,040 Speaker 2: in Seattle. I know where we have questions about how 931 00:44:47,120 --> 00:44:49,640 Speaker 2: good is their defense. I know the run defense is 932 00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:53,720 Speaker 2: not very good. Their secondary is nasty man like Drek 933 00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:57,279 Speaker 2: willand Devon Witherspoon Lake. Those are players you do not 934 00:44:57,400 --> 00:45:00,800 Speaker 2: want to mess with. So I'm a little more tepid. 935 00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:03,760 Speaker 2: I think I'm tipid, although I don't know where Tyreek 936 00:45:03,840 --> 00:45:05,640 Speaker 2: Hill and Wadle are in ECR right now. 937 00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:10,040 Speaker 1: I talked about this with ericson a bit on our 938 00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:13,840 Speaker 1: TikTok Live earlier this week. How if you remember the 939 00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:18,359 Speaker 1: probably the worst defensive game Mike McDonald had in Baltimore 940 00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:21,839 Speaker 1: was against the Dolphins. Now Tua was healthy for that game, 941 00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:25,239 Speaker 1: which is a big difference, but that was early on 942 00:45:25,320 --> 00:45:27,120 Speaker 1: in the season. It was early on in his first 943 00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:31,040 Speaker 1: season as defensive coordinator in Baltimore, and his defense is 944 00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:35,360 Speaker 1: complicated enough that there can be breakdowns, particularly in the 945 00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:38,160 Speaker 1: secondary when they're still trying to gel and kind of 946 00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:40,319 Speaker 1: really learn this thing. It was really the second half 947 00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:42,799 Speaker 1: of year one and all of year two in Baltimore 948 00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:46,120 Speaker 1: that his defense became this elite war machine that nobody 949 00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:48,680 Speaker 1: could score against. Early on it was a different story. 950 00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:50,520 Speaker 1: And then that Dolphins game, of course, I think they 951 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:53,320 Speaker 1: scored like three or four touchdowns in the fourth quarter alone. 952 00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:55,359 Speaker 1: Like it was a ridiculous one of the most fun 953 00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:57,759 Speaker 1: games of the season, and the Dolphins came out on top. 954 00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:00,160 Speaker 1: So that's in the back of my mind that you know, 955 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:02,239 Speaker 1: if you're making a list of wide receivers who are 956 00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:05,360 Speaker 1: quarterback proof, Tyrek kill is probably like the first or 957 00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:08,040 Speaker 1: set maybe second at worst name that you're you're listing 958 00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:10,839 Speaker 1: it is Skyler Thompson, though like it's not it's not 959 00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:14,640 Speaker 1: like you're dropping to, you know, a Jacoby Brissett or yeah, 960 00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:16,880 Speaker 1: or even like a Sam Howell. It's it's somebody that 961 00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:21,440 Speaker 1: we have very little even Tyler Huntley. I mean you're 962 00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:23,879 Speaker 1: exactly correct, Like even Tyler Huntley, you would have more 963 00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:26,600 Speaker 1: faith than Scott and you know, no knock on Thompson, 964 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:27,960 Speaker 1: like I hope he proves is wrong. That would be 965 00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:31,359 Speaker 1: really fun. But I totally get the pessimism. It's hard 966 00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:33,719 Speaker 1: for me to shake the idea of what Tyreek did 967 00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:37,759 Speaker 1: to McDonald's defense in Baltimore. Different. Yeah, you know again, 968 00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:39,479 Speaker 1: it's a different team. I'm not saying that it means 969 00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:41,360 Speaker 1: we're going to see a repeat fits. What are you 970 00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:43,120 Speaker 1: doing with with trying to rank these guys, but both 971 00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:45,279 Speaker 1: Tyreek and Waddell and also a champ. 972 00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:47,799 Speaker 4: First of all, I'm trying to stop my head from 973 00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:50,200 Speaker 4: spinning because we have the play calling battle between Mike 974 00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:53,400 Speaker 4: McDaniel and Mike McDonald's that's gonna get a little complicated 975 00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:56,680 Speaker 4: this week. But so first of all, come on, man, 976 00:46:56,800 --> 00:47:00,160 Speaker 4: Tyler Huntley, like he is totally new to the Dolphins system. 977 00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:03,239 Speaker 4: The one reason I'm kind of holding out hope for 978 00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:07,520 Speaker 4: Tyreek Hill who have wide receiver seven and Jalen Waddle 979 00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:10,799 Speaker 4: who have wide receiver twenty six. I know that's optimistic, 980 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:14,719 Speaker 4: but like this is Skyler Thompson's third year in Mike 981 00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:18,480 Speaker 4: McDaniel's system, Like he came in the same year Mike 982 00:47:18,560 --> 00:47:23,840 Speaker 4: McDaniel came in. So granted, Mike McDaniel might not be 983 00:47:23,920 --> 00:47:27,760 Speaker 4: using every page of the playbook this week with Skyler Thompson. 984 00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:30,520 Speaker 4: You know, I think he will try to simplify things 985 00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:34,160 Speaker 4: a little bit. But maybe Hill and Waddle don't see 986 00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:38,240 Speaker 4: some of those high value downfield targets we like them seeing. 987 00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:43,359 Speaker 4: But if Skyler Thompson can just hit like slant, you know, 988 00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:45,840 Speaker 4: these are two dudes who can take a slant for 989 00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:49,400 Speaker 4: eighty yards and a touchdown. So I guess that's the 990 00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:52,840 Speaker 4: hope here, that you know, two guys with like elite 991 00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:56,640 Speaker 4: big play speed get the chance to utilize that speed. 992 00:47:56,680 --> 00:47:59,640 Speaker 4: But Debro is right, like this is a tough matchup 993 00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:03,400 Speaker 4: Tarik and Devon Witherspoon, although I think Witherspoon might be 994 00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:05,439 Speaker 4: a little banged up, but I don't think there's any 995 00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:06,560 Speaker 4: doubt he's gonna play. 996 00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:08,319 Speaker 3: Man. 997 00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:10,839 Speaker 4: You just you are pinning your hopes on a big 998 00:48:10,880 --> 00:48:13,320 Speaker 4: play here, and I do think between Hill and Waddle, 999 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:15,080 Speaker 4: like they're gonna hit at least one or two. 1000 00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:19,000 Speaker 1: There's a pretty sizable gap between the two of these 1001 00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:21,759 Speaker 1: guys in ECR. I'm you know, there's always a gap 1002 00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:25,040 Speaker 1: right like Tyreeky's ring tire, Tarak's wide receiver fourteen Jalen 1003 00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:28,919 Speaker 1: Wattle's wide receiver thirty one in ECR. Right now, does 1004 00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:31,640 Speaker 1: that feel right to you, Deebro, given the quarterback situation, 1005 00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:33,200 Speaker 1: that the gap would be this wide, because you can 1006 00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:35,080 Speaker 1: kind of make the case that there's like a fairly 1007 00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:37,120 Speaker 1: decent chance for either of them to break a long one, 1008 00:48:37,239 --> 00:48:39,759 Speaker 1: like it could be either one, And I don't know, 1009 00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:41,600 Speaker 1: I just feels like maybe that shouldn't be as wide 1010 00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:42,920 Speaker 1: given the quarterback situation. 1011 00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:45,960 Speaker 2: I mean, if we had seen the problem, and I 1012 00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:48,000 Speaker 2: think this is where the gap is coming from, we 1013 00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:50,759 Speaker 2: haven't seen jam and Wattle, Like we all kind of 1014 00:48:51,040 --> 00:48:55,919 Speaker 2: wanted him to bounce back. So far this season, he's 1015 00:48:55,920 --> 00:48:59,160 Speaker 2: only gotten an eleven point eight percent target chare, so 1016 00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:00,600 Speaker 2: that's fair. 1017 00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:02,800 Speaker 1: I mean, he. 1018 00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:04,280 Speaker 3: Could still pop off big plays. 1019 00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:08,200 Speaker 2: I mean he almost has three point zero yards per 1020 00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:10,080 Speaker 2: rount run like he's at two point eight right now, 1021 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:14,080 Speaker 2: so the talent is still there. But the same problems 1022 00:49:14,120 --> 00:49:16,040 Speaker 2: we had with Wattle last year where it was like, 1023 00:49:16,080 --> 00:49:18,319 Speaker 2: well all of the volume is going to Tyreek Hill, 1024 00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:21,799 Speaker 2: what's left over for Wattle. It's happening again in twenty 1025 00:49:21,840 --> 00:49:24,840 Speaker 2: twenty four. That's why I think we're seeing that wide 1026 00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:29,280 Speaker 2: discrepancy between the two players when we're both saying, okay, 1027 00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:32,880 Speaker 2: both of them have big play upside. It's just the 1028 00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:35,719 Speaker 2: volume has not gone to Wattle's direction. And I don't 1029 00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:36,719 Speaker 2: know if that changes this week. 1030 00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:39,080 Speaker 4: He's never been a high volume guy though, d R. 1031 00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:41,640 Speaker 3: I mean, like he he well outside of his rookie 1032 00:49:41,680 --> 00:49:42,840 Speaker 3: year where they made him. 1033 00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:46,279 Speaker 4: Where he was Jarvis Landery exactly, but he was you know, 1034 00:49:46,360 --> 00:49:48,480 Speaker 4: he missed two games last year and still finished with 1035 00:49:48,520 --> 00:49:50,880 Speaker 4: a thousand yards. He is a dude who can like 1036 00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:53,839 Speaker 4: he's always been hyper efficient, well except for that first 1037 00:49:53,920 --> 00:49:57,080 Speaker 4: year with yards per target, yards per route run. And 1038 00:49:57,440 --> 00:50:00,360 Speaker 4: granted we can't expect that sort of efficiency with Skyler 1039 00:50:00,440 --> 00:50:04,120 Speaker 4: Thompson at quarterback, but I mean, I just like Skyler 1040 00:50:04,200 --> 00:50:07,480 Speaker 4: Thompson can throw a spiral, you know, it's not like 1041 00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:12,560 Speaker 4: you've got me at quarterback. So like, hopefully Mike McDaniel 1042 00:50:12,600 --> 00:50:15,439 Speaker 4: can figure something out, because like that's the only chance 1043 00:50:15,440 --> 00:50:17,799 Speaker 4: of winning this game, to get the ball in the 1044 00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:22,640 Speaker 4: hands of your speedy playmakers. H Chan, Tyreek Hill, Jalen 1045 00:50:22,680 --> 00:50:24,320 Speaker 4: Waddle Did you mention see you? 1046 00:50:24,640 --> 00:50:26,880 Speaker 3: I've seen you throw a spirals spirals fitsy. 1047 00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:30,120 Speaker 1: You've been quarterback in some of our flag football games 1048 00:50:30,120 --> 00:50:31,960 Speaker 1: on team trips Can And we're not. 1049 00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:35,000 Speaker 3: Talking about me here. Yeah, No, I can still chuck it. 1050 00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:39,359 Speaker 1: We're not talking about me, Fitz, did you mention d move? 1051 00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:42,000 Speaker 1: But I can just have Han ranked in his usual spot. 1052 00:50:42,719 --> 00:50:45,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, run like running back six. I mean what we've 1053 00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:47,759 Speaker 4: seen with him in the passing game like that is 1054 00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:50,239 Speaker 4: really exciting. I don't want to see him get as 1055 00:50:50,239 --> 00:50:53,200 Speaker 4: many carries as he had to to Debro's earlier point, 1056 00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:56,040 Speaker 4: like and I think maybe Mike McDaniel was just on 1057 00:50:56,120 --> 00:50:58,520 Speaker 4: tilt after the two injury that a Chan was still 1058 00:50:58,520 --> 00:51:00,759 Speaker 4: getting carries with like under five minutes left in a 1059 00:51:00,800 --> 00:51:03,719 Speaker 4: game they're down by three scores. We don't want to 1060 00:51:03,719 --> 00:51:06,640 Speaker 4: see him getting these twenty five carry games, but we 1061 00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:10,120 Speaker 4: like seeing these eight target games, you know, like the 1062 00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:12,400 Speaker 4: more usage we can get for a Chan in the 1063 00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:14,880 Speaker 4: passing game, get him out into space, like that's going 1064 00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:16,160 Speaker 4: to benefit the Dolphins. 1065 00:51:17,640 --> 00:51:19,520 Speaker 1: Let's go to the next question here. This is again 1066 00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:21,759 Speaker 1: going to loop two games together Ravens at Cowboys and 1067 00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:24,440 Speaker 1: then going back to Lions at Cardinals. In my opinion, 1068 00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:26,920 Speaker 1: the two most surprising names in the top five of 1069 00:51:26,960 --> 00:51:29,440 Speaker 1: targets through two weeks of the season are Zay Flowers 1070 00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:32,000 Speaker 1: He's number four and Jameson Williams at number five. They 1071 00:51:32,040 --> 00:51:34,560 Speaker 1: have twenty one and twenty respectively. Zay has been double 1072 00:51:34,560 --> 00:51:37,200 Speaker 1: digits both games. Jameson Williams had eleven in one game 1073 00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:40,120 Speaker 1: and nine and the other. Surprising to see those two 1074 00:51:40,200 --> 00:51:42,200 Speaker 1: names in the top five, just given you and everything 1075 00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:43,759 Speaker 1: we know about them, which of those two do you 1076 00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:45,839 Speaker 1: think we'll have the better Week three? Though? Flowers at 1077 00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:49,480 Speaker 1: the Cowboys or Jamison Williams at the Cardinals fits. 1078 00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:51,240 Speaker 4: Where am I got to give the edge to Jamo? 1079 00:51:51,480 --> 00:51:56,640 Speaker 4: Sorry about that? Maybe mildly surprising that Jay Flowers is 1080 00:51:56,680 --> 00:52:00,200 Speaker 4: among the target leaders flight out shocking that Jamison william 1081 00:52:00,400 --> 00:52:04,360 Speaker 4: is among the target leaders, But like, here's the difference. 1082 00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:07,280 Speaker 4: The average depth of target so far for Jamison Williams 1083 00:52:07,320 --> 00:52:11,120 Speaker 4: twelve point eight yards Zay Flowers six point seven yards. 1084 00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:15,440 Speaker 4: So these are higher value targets for Jamo. Flowers already 1085 00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:17,879 Speaker 4: has thirteen catches, which is great, but He's averaging nine 1086 00:52:17,920 --> 00:52:21,399 Speaker 4: point eight yards per catch and hasn't popped a big 1087 00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:24,160 Speaker 4: one yet. His longest catch is twenty one yards. Jamison 1088 00:52:24,200 --> 00:52:27,120 Speaker 4: Williams already has four catches more than twenty yards and 1089 00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:31,320 Speaker 4: two catches of forty or more yards. I do think 1090 00:52:31,920 --> 00:52:36,080 Speaker 4: Flowers has the higher degree of target certainty, like JMO 1091 00:52:36,200 --> 00:52:39,040 Speaker 4: has twenty targets, but Jared Goff is currently leading the 1092 00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:41,680 Speaker 4: NFL in pass attempts. I don't know if that keeps 1093 00:52:41,719 --> 00:52:44,200 Speaker 4: up all year, and I don't think we can continue 1094 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:47,880 Speaker 4: to count on Jamison Williams having a target share approaching 1095 00:52:47,880 --> 00:52:51,520 Speaker 4: twenty five percent when he has i'man Ross Saint Brown 1096 00:52:51,600 --> 00:52:55,240 Speaker 4: and Sam Laporte's teammates, like there are gonna be games 1097 00:52:55,239 --> 00:52:58,200 Speaker 4: where we don't see more than a handful of Jamison 1098 00:52:58,200 --> 00:53:03,560 Speaker 4: Williams targets. But Jamo does have the more favorable matchup, 1099 00:53:03,600 --> 00:53:05,920 Speaker 4: probably this week against the Cardinals in a game with 1100 00:53:06,200 --> 00:53:10,560 Speaker 4: a Vegas total of fifty one and a half. Flowers 1101 00:53:10,600 --> 00:53:13,000 Speaker 4: is going against the Cowboys. Still pretty high total in 1102 00:53:13,000 --> 00:53:16,640 Speaker 4: that game forty eight points, but I don't know. They're 1103 00:53:16,640 --> 00:53:18,759 Speaker 4: both must starts. But I'm a little more drawn to 1104 00:53:18,880 --> 00:53:19,920 Speaker 4: Jamo in this one. 1105 00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:23,799 Speaker 1: I don't necessarily disagree fits. I will say today's like 1106 00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:26,239 Speaker 1: yards per reception, Like, I think that's going to that 1107 00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:28,440 Speaker 1: for the first few weeks when there's a small sample 1108 00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:30,840 Speaker 1: size that's getting dragged down by the Chiefs game, he 1109 00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:33,880 Speaker 1: was more like thirteen yards per catch against the Raiders. 1110 00:53:33,880 --> 00:53:35,879 Speaker 1: I think that'll be more in line with how they 1111 00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:39,520 Speaker 1: use him in normal, like non Chiefs games. That's not 1112 00:53:39,520 --> 00:53:42,440 Speaker 1: to say that he should be you know, over Williams, 1113 00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:44,440 Speaker 1: he is an ECR, but they're really close. It's say 1114 00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:47,239 Speaker 1: Flowers at wide receiver eighteen and half VPR and James 1115 00:53:47,280 --> 00:53:49,279 Speaker 1: Williams at wide receiver twenty. So both guys that are 1116 00:53:49,760 --> 00:53:52,000 Speaker 1: clear starts right now. Deebra, what do you think about 1117 00:53:52,040 --> 00:53:53,759 Speaker 1: these two and who would you prefer to start in 1118 00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:54,279 Speaker 1: week three? 1119 00:53:55,360 --> 00:53:58,600 Speaker 2: I think they're both having strong seasons, very very different 1120 00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:02,400 Speaker 2: seasons at all the points that fits he outlined and 1121 00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:06,240 Speaker 2: to your point where I'm zay, Flowers at did increase 1122 00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:08,719 Speaker 2: from six point one to ten point seven a week two, 1123 00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:12,000 Speaker 2: so a little bit more not traditional usage, but a 1124 00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:14,440 Speaker 2: little bit more just not like three yards and a 1125 00:54:14,440 --> 00:54:16,720 Speaker 2: cloud of dust as far as screens and design targets 1126 00:54:16,719 --> 00:54:19,000 Speaker 2: and stuff. But for me, it's it's Jamo. I just 1127 00:54:19,560 --> 00:54:22,960 Speaker 2: I have been floored by what we have seen and honestly, 1128 00:54:23,120 --> 00:54:26,920 Speaker 2: like I don't want to say like happily surprised, but dude, 1129 00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:30,359 Speaker 2: this is the Jamison Williams that we all saw as 1130 00:54:30,360 --> 00:54:31,840 Speaker 2: a prospect coming out of Alabama. 1131 00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:33,320 Speaker 3: This is the Jamison. 1132 00:54:32,920 --> 00:54:36,160 Speaker 2: Williams that, if he would have never torn his acl 1133 00:54:36,719 --> 00:54:38,239 Speaker 2: was the guy that I thought was going to just 1134 00:54:38,280 --> 00:54:41,359 Speaker 2: catch fire and light the league on fire, like as 1135 00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:44,200 Speaker 2: soon as he was healthy. That is what we are seeing, 1136 00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:48,840 Speaker 2: Like he looks so stinking good, and the matchup leans 1137 00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:51,680 Speaker 2: his way. They're using him not only deep, but they're 1138 00:54:51,760 --> 00:54:55,000 Speaker 2: using him all over the field. He's getting short area targets, 1139 00:54:55,040 --> 00:54:59,000 Speaker 2: intermediate targets, and the deep looks as well. I mean, 1140 00:54:59,800 --> 00:55:03,520 Speaker 2: just put this in context, guys. Amongst ninety two qualifying 1141 00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:07,680 Speaker 2: wide receivers, Jmo right now sixth in separation and ninth 1142 00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:11,839 Speaker 2: in route win rate. Jamo at this point, like I've 1143 00:55:11,840 --> 00:55:14,919 Speaker 2: got him as wide receiver seventeen. I don't think it's 1144 00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:17,840 Speaker 2: crazy if we get to a point where if golf 1145 00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:20,040 Speaker 2: keeps throwing this much on a weekly basis, and I 1146 00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:24,760 Speaker 2: don't know if that happens where we're ranking Jamo and 1147 00:55:24,840 --> 00:55:28,640 Speaker 2: amanra As both like top thirteen to fourteen options on 1148 00:55:28,640 --> 00:55:33,040 Speaker 2: a weekly basis, like that, this is how consolidated this 1149 00:55:33,120 --> 00:55:35,799 Speaker 2: offense has been, and how stinking good Jamo has been 1150 00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:37,600 Speaker 2: so far he's been awesome. 1151 00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:40,200 Speaker 4: Then we're going to be ranking Sam Laporta tight end 1152 00:55:40,239 --> 00:55:41,520 Speaker 4: fifteen apparently. 1153 00:55:42,120 --> 00:55:46,200 Speaker 2: I mean, dude, it's Jamo has been awesome, like him 1154 00:55:46,239 --> 00:55:50,080 Speaker 2: taking or at least did any of us see after 1155 00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:54,880 Speaker 2: two weeks any world where we thought Jamison Williams was 1156 00:55:54,920 --> 00:55:57,799 Speaker 2: going to be fighting weekly for the lead in targets 1157 00:55:57,840 --> 00:56:00,279 Speaker 2: and fighting weekly for the lead in target here with 1158 00:56:00,320 --> 00:56:04,520 Speaker 2: Amara Saint Brown and Sam Laporta, I didn't at all, 1159 00:56:04,800 --> 00:56:07,320 Speaker 2: and I just to me, I'm just bowing down. Jmo 1160 00:56:07,400 --> 00:56:08,840 Speaker 2: has looked so good. 1161 00:56:09,560 --> 00:56:12,200 Speaker 1: Jamison Williams is up there near the top of the 1162 00:56:12,239 --> 00:56:14,360 Speaker 1: list of guys I have the most fomo of not 1163 00:56:14,480 --> 00:56:17,480 Speaker 1: having more of, and I liked him in draft season. 1164 00:56:17,480 --> 00:56:19,920 Speaker 1: I was not fading him at all. There was always 1165 00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:21,960 Speaker 1: one person in my draft who liked him a little more, 1166 00:56:21,960 --> 00:56:24,279 Speaker 1: and sometimes it's all I could like him the second 1167 00:56:24,360 --> 00:56:26,719 Speaker 1: most out of twelve guys, but if one person likes 1168 00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:29,759 Speaker 1: him more, then I don't get him. So I wish 1169 00:56:29,760 --> 00:56:32,879 Speaker 1: I certainly wish I had more the other thing too, 1170 00:56:32,960 --> 00:56:34,400 Speaker 1: like in terms of the matchup, and you kind of 1171 00:56:34,440 --> 00:56:37,320 Speaker 1: hit on this a bit. Fits like, I'm very worried 1172 00:56:37,360 --> 00:56:39,880 Speaker 1: about Michael Parsons and what he's gonna do to the 1173 00:56:39,960 --> 00:56:44,000 Speaker 1: Ravens offensive line. And we saw when Chris Jones was 1174 00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:47,040 Speaker 1: wreaking havoc in that Chiefs game that it meant a 1175 00:56:47,080 --> 00:56:49,680 Speaker 1: lot of these short screens. So I worry that they 1176 00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:52,160 Speaker 1: might go back to some of that shorter passing game 1177 00:56:52,200 --> 00:56:55,040 Speaker 1: stuff out of fear of Michael Parson's doing what Chris 1178 00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:57,719 Speaker 1: Jones did and kind of pointing out I want him 1179 00:56:57,800 --> 00:57:00,279 Speaker 1: and you know, moving along the line to go after 1180 00:57:00,680 --> 00:57:03,880 Speaker 1: you know, mainly the right guard and Daniel Fole for Baltimore. 1181 00:57:04,040 --> 00:57:06,600 Speaker 1: So I am worried about that for the Ravens passing game. 1182 00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:09,839 Speaker 2: And to your point, two, Worm, I think this is 1183 00:57:09,880 --> 00:57:12,279 Speaker 2: more of a big Mark Andrews game. I'm gonna I'm 1184 00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:14,719 Speaker 2: gonna call that out over over Zay Flowers this week. 1185 00:57:14,719 --> 00:57:16,000 Speaker 2: Considering the matchup. 1186 00:57:16,160 --> 00:57:18,080 Speaker 1: Interesting, well, do you think that it could be a 1187 00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:21,240 Speaker 1: likely game and like they use Andrews to block more 1188 00:57:21,400 --> 00:57:23,240 Speaker 1: like could to help out. 1189 00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:26,000 Speaker 3: I mean, to your point, that's that's what we saw likely. 1190 00:57:26,080 --> 00:57:27,400 Speaker 2: I mean that was his role, Like he was in 1191 00:57:27,440 --> 00:57:29,520 Speaker 2: the flats, he was getting screens, he was getting designed 1192 00:57:29,520 --> 00:57:33,600 Speaker 2: stuff in week one didn't happen in week two. This 1193 00:57:33,680 --> 00:57:35,880 Speaker 2: could be a game where we see just a lot 1194 00:57:35,960 --> 00:57:38,280 Speaker 2: of usage of Andrews unlikely all day. 1195 00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:41,120 Speaker 4: I hope, But yeah, that's I do have that same 1196 00:57:41,240 --> 00:57:45,120 Speaker 4: fear worm about the route participation for Andrews. When the 1197 00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:48,920 Speaker 4: Cowboys are so fearsome off the edge like that, that's 1198 00:57:48,960 --> 00:57:50,040 Speaker 4: a little worrisome for me. 1199 00:57:50,400 --> 00:57:52,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, see how it goes. I think it'll be 1200 00:57:52,080 --> 00:57:53,920 Speaker 1: a fun game. These are These are two of my 1201 00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:56,480 Speaker 1: favorite games on the slate, Ravens Cowboys and Lions Cardinals. 1202 00:57:56,520 --> 00:57:58,600 Speaker 1: I think they're both gonna be really fun ones. Let's 1203 00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:01,840 Speaker 1: go to question number ten, Chiefs at Falcons. Fits will 1204 00:58:01,840 --> 00:58:04,200 Speaker 1: start with you here. Will any Chiefs running back be 1205 00:58:04,320 --> 00:58:07,560 Speaker 1: worth starting in fantasy? With Isaiah Pacheco out, we have 1206 00:58:07,720 --> 00:58:11,040 Speaker 1: a bunch of options, Carson Steel, samaj p Ryan, ultimately 1207 00:58:11,040 --> 00:58:14,200 Speaker 1: maybe Kareem Hunt or do you think that is injury 1208 00:58:14,240 --> 00:58:16,600 Speaker 1: simply means we're gonna get more passing in Kansas City. 1209 00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:19,919 Speaker 4: My initial thought was that this could be a really 1210 00:58:19,960 --> 00:58:24,320 Speaker 4: messy backfield situation, and I'll repeat something I said on 1211 00:58:24,320 --> 00:58:26,160 Speaker 4: one of the shows earlier this week, although I think 1212 00:58:26,200 --> 00:58:27,800 Speaker 4: I got the number wrong, and in two of the 1213 00:58:27,880 --> 00:58:30,960 Speaker 4: last five seasons, I might have said three earlier. Two 1214 00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:33,000 Speaker 4: of the last five, the Chiefs have not had a 1215 00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:36,560 Speaker 4: six hundred yard rusher among their running backs, and I 1216 00:58:36,600 --> 00:58:38,880 Speaker 4: think there's a good chance that happens again this year. 1217 00:58:39,280 --> 00:58:44,280 Speaker 4: With Pacheco out indefinitely, this could be an unpredictable jumble 1218 00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:49,200 Speaker 4: with Carson Steel, samaj p Ryan, Clyde Edwards Hilaire who's 1219 00:58:49,240 --> 00:58:52,520 Speaker 4: on the non football injured list and eligible to come 1220 00:58:52,520 --> 00:58:55,840 Speaker 4: off in Week five, and maybe Kareem Hunt makes an 1221 00:58:55,840 --> 00:58:59,120 Speaker 4: appearance at some point. Keyante Ingram is kicking around like 1222 00:58:59,200 --> 00:59:04,120 Speaker 4: this could be really messy. That said, I am starting 1223 00:59:04,200 --> 00:59:08,600 Speaker 4: to become a little more intrigued by Carson Steel. He's 1224 00:59:08,640 --> 00:59:13,080 Speaker 4: a really interesting player. Like Steel reportedly at his UCLA 1225 00:59:13,160 --> 00:59:16,160 Speaker 4: Pro Day this year ran a four point seven to 1226 00:59:16,280 --> 00:59:20,720 Speaker 4: five in the forty That is that's pretty slow. But 1227 00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:23,960 Speaker 4: despite the lack of speed, he did have a fifteen 1228 00:59:24,040 --> 00:59:27,080 Speaker 4: hundred yard rushing season for ball State in twenty twenty 1229 00:59:27,080 --> 00:59:31,360 Speaker 4: two and finished with like eight hundred plus rushing yards 1230 00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:36,200 Speaker 4: for the Bruins last fall. It's possible. Steel has the 1231 00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:39,880 Speaker 4: same sort of season for the Chiefs that Matt Asciata 1232 00:59:39,960 --> 00:59:44,160 Speaker 4: had for the Vikings back in twenty fourteen after Adrian 1233 00:59:44,160 --> 00:59:47,760 Speaker 4: Peterson ripped up his knee in Week one. Like Aseata 1234 00:59:47,880 --> 00:59:53,880 Speaker 4: was this big, bruising fullback tailback hybrid, kind of like 1235 00:59:53,960 --> 00:59:57,440 Speaker 4: Carson Steele, who just like he was basically all the 1236 00:59:57,520 --> 01:00:02,560 Speaker 4: Vikings had. So by def Matt Asciata had eight hundred 1237 01:00:02,600 --> 01:00:05,440 Speaker 4: and eighty two yards from scrimmage in ten touchdowns. Like 1238 01:00:05,840 --> 01:00:08,680 Speaker 4: and if we get that sort of season from Carson Steel, 1239 01:00:08,720 --> 01:00:13,520 Speaker 4: like that makes him a usable fantasy asset. Like I 1240 01:00:14,040 --> 01:00:15,800 Speaker 4: do think he's gonna be the best bet for goal 1241 01:00:15,840 --> 01:00:19,040 Speaker 4: line work here, and maybe he's the best bet for 1242 01:00:19,120 --> 01:00:21,920 Speaker 4: early down carries even when the Chiefs are at midfield 1243 01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:23,160 Speaker 4: or in their own territory. 1244 01:00:23,640 --> 01:00:23,840 Speaker 3: You know. 1245 01:00:23,960 --> 01:00:27,160 Speaker 4: So, I we talked about this on the Waiver Show. 1246 01:00:27,200 --> 01:00:30,520 Speaker 4: I said I'd rather have some ajp RN. I'm reversing 1247 01:00:30,560 --> 01:00:32,440 Speaker 4: course on that. I'd rather have Carson Steele. 1248 01:00:33,640 --> 01:00:34,800 Speaker 1: Do you brow, what do you think. 1249 01:00:35,560 --> 01:00:38,280 Speaker 2: To Fitzi's I love the Asciata callback. I'm sitting here 1250 01:00:38,320 --> 01:00:42,240 Speaker 2: pulling up old Acata box scores. Here in that twenty 1251 01:00:42,280 --> 01:00:47,120 Speaker 2: fourteen season, he had two three touchdown games and another 1252 01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:51,520 Speaker 2: one where he got into the ion zone twice. Good lord, 1253 01:00:51,920 --> 01:00:54,880 Speaker 2: that's a fun time. But I'm with FITZI I think 1254 01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:59,320 Speaker 2: Carson Steele, you're looking at it as a touchdown dependent 1255 01:00:59,400 --> 01:01:02,800 Speaker 2: probably our three this week, and he already got the 1256 01:01:02,800 --> 01:01:05,200 Speaker 2: goal line stuff last week. He got thirty eight percent 1257 01:01:05,240 --> 01:01:06,840 Speaker 2: of the goal line snaps. Talked about this in the 1258 01:01:06,840 --> 01:01:10,320 Speaker 2: Waiver Wire column and or excuse me, the Waiver wiar show, 1259 01:01:10,760 --> 01:01:14,760 Speaker 2: and sixty percent of the short yardage snaps. So while 1260 01:01:15,040 --> 01:01:18,440 Speaker 2: the stat line might not look sexy for Carson Steel, 1261 01:01:18,440 --> 01:01:22,240 Speaker 2: it might be like fourteen to fifteen carries for forty 1262 01:01:22,280 --> 01:01:26,560 Speaker 2: five yards. He could get in the box once, maybe twice, 1263 01:01:26,880 --> 01:01:29,880 Speaker 2: So I think he's a good flex play just considering 1264 01:01:30,520 --> 01:01:33,040 Speaker 2: if he's the goal line back for the Chiefs offense 1265 01:01:33,840 --> 01:01:36,520 Speaker 2: has value. So I'm not gonna tell you that he's 1266 01:01:36,520 --> 01:01:39,640 Speaker 2: gonna get twenty carries or have eighty or ninety rushing yards. 1267 01:01:39,680 --> 01:01:41,959 Speaker 2: But if he gets in the end zone once, he's 1268 01:01:42,040 --> 01:01:43,960 Speaker 2: probably a top twenty four back. If he gets in 1269 01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:45,560 Speaker 2: there twice, he's in RB one for the week. 1270 01:01:46,320 --> 01:01:48,720 Speaker 1: Do you think we're gonna finally see Mahomes? You know, 1271 01:01:48,800 --> 01:01:52,160 Speaker 1: on the other side, of this have thirty pass attempts 1272 01:01:52,160 --> 01:01:53,400 Speaker 1: in a game. I mean he hasn't been higher than 1273 01:01:53,440 --> 01:01:54,880 Speaker 1: twenty eight through two weeks this season. 1274 01:01:55,480 --> 01:01:55,760 Speaker 3: Yep. 1275 01:01:56,000 --> 01:01:59,080 Speaker 2: I think that the Chiefs are with this injury and stuff. 1276 01:01:59,640 --> 01:02:01,880 Speaker 2: I think that they have been very run heavy and 1277 01:02:01,880 --> 01:02:04,120 Speaker 2: they've been playing slow. I think we see the Chiefs 1278 01:02:04,120 --> 01:02:06,000 Speaker 2: get back to doing what the Chiefs do. I think 1279 01:02:06,040 --> 01:02:07,440 Speaker 2: they're going to pick up the pace. I think they're 1280 01:02:07,440 --> 01:02:10,320 Speaker 2: going to throw more. I think if really the big 1281 01:02:10,360 --> 01:02:14,960 Speaker 2: takeaway for me is I think we are going to 1282 01:02:15,120 --> 01:02:18,760 Speaker 2: see Rashi Rice get peppered weekly, and I think we're 1283 01:02:18,760 --> 01:02:21,280 Speaker 2: going to see Xavier Worthy's floor raised on a weekly 1284 01:02:21,320 --> 01:02:23,160 Speaker 2: basis based off of the injury to Pachecko. 1285 01:02:23,680 --> 01:02:24,680 Speaker 1: Do you agree with Effets? 1286 01:02:25,400 --> 01:02:28,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean this is just the way the season 1287 01:02:28,400 --> 01:02:31,400 Speaker 4: has opened up. Is just like for Rashi Rice investors, 1288 01:02:31,440 --> 01:02:34,800 Speaker 4: the best possible scenario Hollywood brown out for the season. 1289 01:02:35,480 --> 01:02:40,520 Speaker 4: Pacheco injured, so they're going to replace some of their 1290 01:02:40,600 --> 01:02:43,680 Speaker 4: running game with the short passing game, and that's like, 1291 01:02:43,800 --> 01:02:45,840 Speaker 4: that's where Rashie Rice has been thriving. 1292 01:02:47,160 --> 01:02:48,600 Speaker 1: All Right, we'll get out of there on that. Those 1293 01:02:48,640 --> 01:02:51,760 Speaker 1: are our ten biggest questions for Week three. Thank you 1294 01:02:51,800 --> 01:02:53,520 Speaker 1: to face, Thank you to Debro, Thank you to Colin 1295 01:02:53,560 --> 01:02:56,160 Speaker 1: for joining as he does every Friday.
