Let's get you caught up on 34 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: everything you need to know about tonight's showdown between two 35 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: NFC powerhouses, the Packers and Seahawks. All right, thank you, James. 36 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 1: And here we are outside Century in Link Fields. Some 37 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 1: call it the Clink, and they call these fine folks 38 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 1: behind us Dave Damna Schek, the inmates and the inmates 39 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 1: happened to be the loudest fans in all of football. 40 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: So why don't we get started with the first game 41 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: on the two thousand fourteen fantasy Slade Packers Seahawks. Plenty 42 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,639 Speaker 1: of top shelf players on that Packers squad that we're 43 00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: drafted high. And now we asked the question, do you 44 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:53,799 Speaker 1: dare sit your studs in week one? Because of that 45 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: Seattle defense? It's hard to find a weakness in the 46 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: Seattle defense board. Are you gonna do? Aaron Rodgers is 47 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 1: the best quarterback in a quarterback league. You gotta roll 48 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: with number twelve there, and as far as that goes, 49 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 1: you gotta roll with at least Jordi and Cobb if 50 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 1: you've got him, and of course Eddie Laces. But let's 51 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 1: start with Aaron Rodgers. Of course, you go back to 52 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,519 Speaker 1: two thousand twelve, you think about sort of the birth 53 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 1: of this Pete Carroll dominant defense. Eight sacks in the 54 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: first half, a lot of people pointing to the rookie 55 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 1: starting center Corey Linsley, the fact that David Batieri has 56 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 1: been moved to left tackle because Brian Bulaga couldn't handle it. 57 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 1: There no concern at all that maybe the pressure is 58 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:30,960 Speaker 1: going to get to him and it could be a 59 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 1: subpar passing effort. Oh, I'm absolutely concerned about it. But again, 60 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: what are you going to do. You have Aaron Rodgers, 61 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 1: you drafted him high, you must use him. That being said, 62 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: I would be afraid if I were a Packers fan 63 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 1: right now with the sound of this crowd makes every 64 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 1: week we saw it, like you say, that's the point 65 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,040 Speaker 1: of reference two years ago, what we saw in that 66 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:52,840 Speaker 1: Monday night game. I don't think it's gonna be much 67 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: different for the Packers tonight. Aaron Rodgers is gonna have 68 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 1: to get rid of it quick. And if there's one 69 00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: thing he can do, it's get rid of it quick. 70 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 1: The other thing he can do is rely on a 71 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 1: dominant running game, and that is something that didn't have. 72 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: That's right right, as has said, they intend to do 73 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: all season long. And if you look at Eddie Lacey 74 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: at the back end of the season, he was one 75 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: of the most time he was a running back, one 76 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: one of the most dominant running backs in fantasy football. 77 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,359 Speaker 1: In a copycat league, you'd certainly expect the Packers to 78 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,839 Speaker 1: try and run the ball all three times the Seahawks 79 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: lost last year they were gashed on the on the ground. 80 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,480 Speaker 1: Now they there were two teams that they beat who 81 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:27,479 Speaker 1: ran for over two hundred yards against him. But that 82 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:30,599 Speaker 1: being said, the the yes, the pattern is there. If 83 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,840 Speaker 1: Eddie Lacy could get off, the Packers have a shot tonight. 84 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: Now we talked about Aaron Rodgers and if he is 85 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 1: going to have a good game, he's gonna have to 86 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: have pass catchers. And those pass catchers are gonna have 87 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: to be what Shorty Nelson and Old Randall cop And 88 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 1: the question is which of the two are going to 89 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: be the better options, and i'd i'd say start both. 90 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,120 Speaker 1: And of course Jordy Nelson probably one of the more 91 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 1: I don't know less celebrated number one receivers in the league. Absolutely, Geordie, 92 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I think the secret is out now, though 93 00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,599 Speaker 1: I think that within the league he's been respected for 94 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 1: a little it longer than probably the casual fan acknowledges. 95 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 1: Of course, though I always turned to number twelve. Is 96 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: the reason why asked James Jones how it's going this October, 97 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,600 Speaker 1: asked Greg Jennings how it went for him in Minnesota 98 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,839 Speaker 1: last year without Aaron. It's listen, you gotta go George. 99 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: You gotta go cop period, even against the Legion of Boom. 100 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 1: Maybe down the line you talk Davante Adams or Jared Boyck. 101 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:24,239 Speaker 1: And here's a look at our projections for the contest tonight. 102 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 1: What we expect these Packers to do. And uh, you 103 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 1: can see we feel pretty good about it. Certainly not 104 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: a dynamic performance by Aaron Rogers with eighteen points. You 105 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 1: have them with twenty four and a half. Their damnit check, 106 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:37,919 Speaker 1: I got fourteen for Lacey. You believe the Legion of 107 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: Boom in the front seven gonna slow him down, So 108 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 1: I think that's gonna be their point of emphasis is 109 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: to take away Lacey. So yeah, I don't expect him 110 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 1: necessary to get roll. Look, we said it. You draft 111 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: these guys, high play them. Figure you know, teams don't 112 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 1: know their identity yet. We don't know if this is 113 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,679 Speaker 1: gonna be a dominant Seattle defense. If you start benching 114 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 1: him in we won the first game of the season, 115 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 1: you're gonna make yourself crazy. So the Seattle Seahawks and 116 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson and whether or not Russell Wilson is going 117 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 1: to work his way, but he's already got a Super Bowl, 118 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,719 Speaker 1: so whatever with the elite conversation, but in fantasy working 119 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,360 Speaker 1: his way into the elite category of fantasy quarterbacks. Hey 120 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,919 Speaker 1: go back and look this narrative that Russell Wilson is 121 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: a game manager. It doesn't jibe with the numbers. He 122 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 1: has been historically great offensively, and if he can have 123 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 1: a healthy season or anything close to it for the 124 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: Percy Harvin. I don't know that Percy Harvin blows up 125 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 1: as a number one fantasy receiver, but I think that 126 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 1: offense as a whole is going to take it to 127 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: another level, especially Russell Wilson. And one thing we saw 128 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 1: him do all preseason was really used those legs. Did 129 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,359 Speaker 1: not use them as much as many thought when he 130 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: came into the league. But this preseason he has been 131 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 1: running all over the place, scoring a lot of touchdowns 132 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 1: on the ground, and of course, were quarterback a huge 133 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:46,719 Speaker 1: bonus there to beast Mode and uh In Marshawn Lynch 134 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,479 Speaker 1: and whether or not the I guess the rumors of 135 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: his demise have been exaggerated. I think whether or not 136 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 1: his demise hits in is up in the air, but 137 00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: I expect in the rugged business of the NFL, the 138 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: Seahawks are gonna grind him into the ground. They are 139 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 1: gonna pound marsh On Lynch all through and what could 140 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 1: be his last year in Seattle. Okay, and uh, lastly, 141 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 1: I'm a little worried. I feel like you draft running 142 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 1: backs consecutive years. Perhaps the coaching staff, the front office 143 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 1: knows something that we don't, but he certainly disproved that 144 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:20,679 Speaker 1: last season. Percy Harvon uh the injury bug. Speaking of injury, 145 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 1: it has bid him uh here since he rotten in Seattle. 146 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: Of course, had a big impact in the Super Bowl. 147 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 1: What about for Percy Harvin. Percy Harvin again the playmaker 148 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 1: supreme in the NFC if he can stay right here. 149 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 1: I don't know though as a pass catcher that he 150 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 1: is going to be gaming in game out. Certainly in 151 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: a PPR league, I wouldn't look for him to put 152 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 1: up huge numbers there. But the distraction that he provides 153 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 1: for a defense, the attention that the secondary for the 154 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: Packers tonight is going to have to pay to him, 155 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: that means good things for Doug Baldwin and the rest. 156 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: All right, well, let's get a look at our projections 157 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 1: for the Seattle Seahawks in tonight's game and whether or not, 158 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 1: according to me, Mett money Smith and he Dave Damas 159 00:07:57,920 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: Check you ought to be starting these guys. As you see, 160 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 1: I suspect Russell Wilson gonna have a big night. The 161 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 1: The Packers are still trying to sort out whether or 162 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 1: not they have someone to replace b j Raji. Of course, 163 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 1: the pass rush, we'll see whether or not Julius Peppers 164 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: can do it as a linebacker both even on Lynch there. 165 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 1: And I got a little bit more faith in Percy 166 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 1: Harvin than you know. I like. I have more faith 167 00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 1: in the Packers defense and to be built ready to roll. 168 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: And I like that secondary scene whether or not Dayton 169 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: Jones can do it at that left defensive end. Alright, 170 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: I'm about this fantastic crowd behind us sound Garden gonna 171 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 1: take the stage. We're having the time of our life. 172 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 1: And by the way, they're cheering for you, Adam Rank, 173 00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: your face on camera drew a big cheer from the Alright, James, 174 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,079 Speaker 1: you got a good chuckle out of that. Certainly, you 175 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 1: guys are back in studio holding down the fourth there. 176 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: But here it is a pretty spectacular setting. Money very quickly. 177 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: I love the food scene out in Seattle, have you 178 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,439 Speaker 1: hit that nice Cuban sandwich joy called the sales yet? 179 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,319 Speaker 1: Did I sample? I don't know what you said because 180 00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 1: it is so loud because of the twelfth Man, but 181 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: I will just answer yes because I'm a positive person. 182 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 1: It's very Hey, thanks guys. Al Right, guys, let's look 183 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 1: ahead to the rest of the weekend, and what's the 184 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 1: one storyline you're most looking forward to seeing play out 185 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 1: on the first football Sunday of the season. We are 186 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 1: fired up, and Michael Fabriano, people might be surprised. The 187 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 1: Cowboys offense has potential to be a fantasy friendly, but 188 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 1: also the defense. Please explain that exactly, and that's why 189 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:25,079 Speaker 1: I want to watch that Cowboys forty nine game. I'll 190 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 1: be watching it very closely because if you think about it, 191 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,079 Speaker 1: awful defense, which means they're gonna give up a lot 192 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:34,079 Speaker 1: of fantasy points to the Cowboys opposition. The Cowboys offense, 193 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 1: in turn, we will need to throw the ball a lot, 194 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 1: run the ball a lot, and try to erase deficits, 195 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 1: which could mean big things not only for the Cowboys 196 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: but every team they play weekend in the week out. 197 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:47,559 Speaker 1: So I want to see if this defense is as 198 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 1: bad as everyone is projecting it to be. You know, 199 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: on a weeks week basis, I will say this, I 200 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,199 Speaker 1: think to Marco Murray's gonna get his points early. You're 201 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,680 Speaker 1: gonna see de Brian Tony Romo get their points late 202 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: as I gotta throw that ball to cash up garbage time. 203 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: Points are just as well hither ones. So the Cowboys 204 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 1: defense could be this year's Jack's pretty much all right, 205 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: Adam ranked the Jets. We're always talking about their defense, 206 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,200 Speaker 1: but their offense could be better than expected. I'm really 207 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: looking forward to seeing what the Jets are gonna bring 208 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 1: offensively to the table because last year Gino Smith was 209 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 1: a pretty effective fantasy quarterback Cords at the end of 210 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 1: the season, but he was doing it without any weapons. 211 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: Now you're bringing Eric Decker and of course he's going 212 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 1: from Peyton Manning to Gino Smith. But remember Eric Decker 213 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 1: is still caught touchdown passes from Tim Tebow, so he 214 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: has the ability to make plays near the red zone. 215 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:32,439 Speaker 1: And then you add Chris Johnson in the mix. What 216 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 1: are the most maligned solid fantasy performers over the last 217 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 1: couple of years. He ranked ninth last year among Fantasy 218 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 1: running guys in points scored, and yet people still kind 219 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 1: of write him off. I'm really looking forward to what 220 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: he's gonna be able to do. They're gonna put them 221 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 1: all over the field. I like him to be in 222 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 1: the slot, all over I like Chris Johns. How about 223 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 1: fabs calling him c J point nine King, I don't 224 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 1: care for that. If you had him last year, like 225 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 1: you would know, he was a headache, very inconsistent, and 226 00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: Gino has appeared to be much more assertive this preseas 227 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 1: then as well, James cam Newton injuries hasn't really had 228 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 1: a chance to build a rapport with those receivers. Are 229 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: you concerned, Well, of course there's a lot to be 230 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 1: concerned with. I mean when you talk about cam Newton, 231 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 1: he loves talking about himself and the third person as 232 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 1: a vehicle for some doing it. But listen, early on 233 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 1: in the preseason, he was very tentative, very tentative on 234 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 1: that ankle. And again he's got he's dealing with those 235 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 1: rape issues. I just can't trust the guy on a 236 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 1: game to game basis. And this is why those Ribs, 237 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 1: fabs you've talked about it. Yeah, and they could put him, 238 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 1: you know that they could put a shot at him, 239 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 1: that's fine, but when he gets hurt and he has 240 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:37,079 Speaker 1: to miss a second half of the ball game, that's 241 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 1: gonna absolutely kill you in terms of a fantasy week. 242 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: So again, he's a guy. Gosh man, it's hard to 243 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 1: trust him. But overall season, at the end of the season, 244 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 1: probably still end up for the top five, could very well. Yeah, 245 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,440 Speaker 1: but that Panthers defense we can trust true. All right. 246 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 1: Coming up, we're hopping in the Dolorean, dialing it up 247 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 1: eighty eight miles per hour and setting course for the 248 00:11:56,440 --> 00:12:00,040 Speaker 1: very first fantasy football draft in nineteen sixty two to 249 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 1: meet the man who set the tone for the fantasy phenomenon. 250 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 1: But before we do, we'll stick aroundeen just a bit longer. 251 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 1: We've got all the depth chart updates, and you need 252 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:11,319 Speaker 1: to know when NFL Fantasy list returns. Come on back, 253 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 1: all right, Sorry for a clearer picture. Presented by Best 254 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 1: Five bar Basja Biamila, Adam Rake, and Michael Fabriano, or 255 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 1: as I like to say, men in polka dots today. 256 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 1: For some reason, all of us, I don't know how 257 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:35,559 Speaker 1: we did not plan this, but somehow all polka dots 258 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 1: today I like it. Week one is officially underway, but 259 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:40,839 Speaker 1: the depth chart is still a work in progress for 260 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: many teams. So we're gonna give you a clearer picture 261 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,200 Speaker 1: of a few of those depth chart battles. Bar We're 262 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 1: gonna start with you with one of your former teams, 263 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 1: the Oakland Raiders. UH. In terms of rookie quarterback Derek 264 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 1: cart named the start, how long does he hold on 265 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:54,959 Speaker 1: to that job for? Well, it's gonna be a rough 266 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 1: road when you think about what's in place for Derek Carr. 267 00:12:58,320 --> 00:12:59,840 Speaker 1: Think about the fact that he's going up his first 268 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 1: game him against Rex Ryan and his crew, and Ryan 269 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 1: is not very friendly when he comes to two rookie quarterbacks. 270 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 1: Think about this, that rookie quarterbacks against Rex Ryan as 271 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 1: a head coach and defensive coordinator. First off the thirteen 272 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,560 Speaker 1: and seven, but only completing fifty one of their balls, 273 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 1: averaging about a hundred and sixties six yards. Again, so 274 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 1: that's not a lot of production when you look at that, 275 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 1: A ton of interceptions, nineteen interceptions. So I anticipate that 276 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 1: Rex Ryan is gonna send a lot of exotic blitz 277 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: to confuse the young guy. But he's got a tough 278 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 1: road first four games. I mean, he's got one game 279 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: at home and the rest of on the road. Not 280 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,680 Speaker 1: to mention that game in London, He's going to be 281 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:38,200 Speaker 1: taxed Adam Rank in Cleveland. Ben take name the week 282 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: one starter. Are you still ride or died for Terence West? 283 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: Or you're jumping off that train. I'm still gonna ride 284 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 1: with Terence West. I've still got him on a number 285 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,199 Speaker 1: of my rosters. But yes, Ben Kad has come on 286 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 1: and taken over that position, and there's really no debate 287 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 1: about it right now. He is gonna be the clear 288 00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 1: number one back to start Week one. There's still some 289 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 1: concerns about injuries and some other things and ineffectiveness, but 290 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,560 Speaker 1: you know, for right now, if you've drafted Ben Tate, 291 00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:04,840 Speaker 1: go ahead and start him to make sure that you 292 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: are handcuffing him the Terence West. Start with confidence. Are 293 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 1: you saying in Week one, even against Tate, I would 294 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 1: start with confidence. You saw the way Rashad Jennings was 295 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:15,679 Speaker 1: able to gash the Steelers during the preseason. I think 296 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 1: Ben Ta could do that? All right? Very good? How 297 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 1: about in Tennessee, I'm gonna talk about the run back 298 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 1: battle has gotten a little bit clear. Bishop Sanky moved 299 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 1: up to number two, but I'm gonna say it's clear 300 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 1: because it's clearly a running back by committee. In my mind, 301 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 1: Sean Green the starter. Bishop Sanky obviously drafted very high. 302 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:33,440 Speaker 1: He's supposed to be the number one. He looked pretty 303 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 1: shanky in the preseason, but they still moved him up 304 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:38,480 Speaker 1: to number two. I could really see them working in 305 00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 1: both backs, and I see that trend continuing as the 306 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 1: season progresses. I think early on it's gonna be Shawn Green, 307 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 1: Bishop Sank, He's gonna be that change at pace back. 308 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 1: He's still get a lot of looks, still get a 309 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 1: lot of carries. But in my mind, I kind of 310 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 1: like the veteran UH in this exchange. And to me, 311 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:59,640 Speaker 1: I'm really seeing a running back by committee moving forward. 312 00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 1: But you will see in Miami Fabs your two thousand 313 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 1: man crush. Don't will mind me, he's he's the lead 314 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: back in the m I A. Can you give us 315 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 1: a clearer picture regarding Maria. Maybe I was a year 316 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 1: two early on. Lamar Miller will see what happens. But 317 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 1: he is the number one running back on the Dolphins 318 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 1: step chart right now. But no Sean Marino larks in 319 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 1: the background. I think he'll be a third down back 320 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 1: coming on past protection downs because he's very good in 321 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 1: past prediction. I wouldn't be shocked at Marino overtook Miller 322 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 1: at some point during the regular season. This is a 323 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 1: committee with Lamar Miller being the lead dog. Very quickly, 324 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 1: I want you all to chime in here. Do you 325 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 1: believe in Bill Lazer's new offense. I do believe in 326 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 1: Bill Laser is going to be fast. It will help 327 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,400 Speaker 1: Tannehill's value big time. Inna Wallace, that was a clear 328 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 1: picture presented by best boy.

Find out 336 00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 1: where our experts say these guys are guaranteed to put 337 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 1: a big point in week one. Plus, we're heading back 338 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 1: to the Emerald City to talk with a couple of 339 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 1: jims who played a big role in Seahawks history. Former 340 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 1: Hawk Michael Robinson and Sean Alexander join us live right 341 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 1: after this touchdown Giants the middle lea cuts left and 342 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 1: the thirty yard line. Mr Bell spit to the left, 343 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 1: fit into the end, soe touchdown Detroit Lions. I love 344 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:50,800 Speaker 1: all three of those guys, all right. Nothing more satisfying 345 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 1: than picking up this year's big breakout running back listened 346 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 1: Eddie Lacey and Alfred Morrison. Well, but who's gonna wear 347 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:01,360 Speaker 1: that crown? Barn Adam Rink. Here's to make their picks, Adam, 348 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 1: what do you like this year? I'm gonna say you 349 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,399 Speaker 1: want to go all in on Andre Ellington? All in 350 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 1: on Andre Ellington down there in Arizona. And a big 351 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:14,400 Speaker 1: reason why are these numbers that are showing up five 352 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 1: and a half yards per rush? Of his rushing attempts 353 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 1: were for more than ten yards and of course six 354 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 1: point five yards protection. What that means is he is 355 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 1: an effective receiver out of the backfield. And we're talking 356 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 1: about an offense directed by Bruce Arians and Carson Palmer 357 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,639 Speaker 1: is poised for a huge season. Our own Gil Brand 358 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:37,199 Speaker 1: believes he can throw for five thousand yards. If that 359 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:40,400 Speaker 1: is gonna happen. Andre Ellington is gonna have to be 360 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 1: a big part of the reason why. He is a 361 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,199 Speaker 1: guy who can get loose in space and do so 362 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,639 Speaker 1: many things once he does catch the football. I like 363 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:51,439 Speaker 1: a lot of these guys, dre Ellington, Larry Fits, Michael Floyd, 364 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: buy in on this offense. It is ready to explode. 365 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 1: Rash Jennings has told the way so long as a 366 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 1: good backup, but now he's the lead man. You know, 367 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:02,320 Speaker 1: Whenever he was given his opportunity when he was with 368 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars behind Maurice Jones, drew, when he got 369 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:09,080 Speaker 1: in heat ball, when he had his opportunity behind inconsistent 370 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 1: play and injuries with the Oakland Raiders, he came in 371 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:14,800 Speaker 1: and he balled. I believe that Rashane Jenning is ready. 372 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:17,480 Speaker 1: He's going to excel in Maculdo's offense, not only in 373 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:19,440 Speaker 1: the passing game, but in the running game. I worked 374 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 1: out with Rashot Jenning this offseason. I can tell you 375 00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 1: there he goes ready. He's in tip top shape. This 376 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: is going to be a big year for Rashanda Jenny. 377 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,160 Speaker 1: He's gonna have a breakout year. All right, very good, 378 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 1: let's go back up to Seattle and welcome back Matt 379 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 1: money Smith and Dave Damnat guys. He's up there with 380 00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 1: a couple of guys up there, Sean Alexander and Michael Robinson. 381 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,399 Speaker 1: Yet certainly very excited about that they're here on stage 382 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:43,400 Speaker 1: with us just outside Century Link Stadium, a century Link field, 383 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 1: I should say, and my great apologies, I am lamenting 384 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 1: no sandwich talk with you when you brought it up 385 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,399 Speaker 1: the first segment there, So I feel terrible, especially with 386 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 1: Damask here, we missed an opportunity. Yeah, just make sure 387 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 1: you put dark mustard not yellow and US professional advice. 388 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 1: All right, Well check speak the sandwiches. We got two 389 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 1: right here in the middle, like you know with that 390 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:05,640 Speaker 1: where the bread. And this is the one thing where 391 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:12,240 Speaker 1: I'm saying rob showing them better than Uxanders certainly. Uh 392 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 1: talk about champions champion in the SEC for Alabama, World Tide, 393 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: champion in the Big Ten for Penn State Super Bowl champion. 394 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,159 Speaker 1: Of course, an NFC champion lost that Super Bowl. Some 395 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: say you didn't really lose it so much as it 396 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:28,119 Speaker 1: was taken from you. I would say that we lost 397 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:29,879 Speaker 1: it because my ring is not as big as his. 398 00:19:30,480 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: It's not as sparkly as his, but hey, it's still 399 00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 1: all the foundational that ring. And now we just finishing 400 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 1: year after year. So you know, we have been talking 401 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:44,359 Speaker 1: extensively since we've been here. Yesterday about the fans, about 402 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:46,919 Speaker 1: the twelve and the impact they have, and and you 403 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,640 Speaker 1: were saying off the air that I think I need 404 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:51,080 Speaker 1: to get a spot here. I think I might need 405 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 1: to move back to Seattle, because once you win one 406 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 1: of these, they really trick you pretty well. Yeah, I mean, 407 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 1: the fans are great. It's the closest atmosphere of college 408 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 1: that I've been part of. I mean, the twelves and 409 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 1: and how they show up for games, how how they 410 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:08,160 Speaker 1: sell out the record at home. That means it's real. 411 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 1: That means the Twelves are the extra defender out there. 412 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,879 Speaker 1: So you know, we love it, and the team feeds 413 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 1: off of it. It's beautiful. I remember when the stadium 414 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 1: was just built behind us and we come out there 415 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:21,400 Speaker 1: and and people are like, are we going to really 416 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 1: be here? And I tell you, after the second game here, 417 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 1: this place blew up and it's never been the same 418 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 1: ever since. So I'm proud of where this place is, 419 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 1: proud of what y'all did last year and hopefully can 420 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 1: see it well. As this is a fantasy show. Let's 421 00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 1: let's go back into history here. How about two thousand 422 00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 1: to a certain game Sean Alexander and it was just 423 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 1: known as Seahawks Stadium, not Century Link Field against the 424 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 1: Minnesota Vikings. I'm gonna pull up my little statue here 425 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:53,399 Speaker 1: ready for this one. Fans sitting behind us, take it. 426 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 1: Take a listen to these numbers against the Vikings. A 427 00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:00,399 Speaker 1: hundred thirty nine yards on the ground, four touchdown. That 428 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 1: was good, it was good, nine two yards receiving, and 429 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 1: that fifth touchdown for a whopping fifty three point one 430 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:12,200 Speaker 1: fantasy point. You basically crushed hopes and dreams across Fantasy 431 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:15,719 Speaker 1: league everywhere with that performance. Yeah. I remember breaking the 432 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 1: eight yard touchdown screen for a touch and I said, oh, 433 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:22,440 Speaker 1: we're onto something here and the rest of history. Mike, 434 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:26,040 Speaker 1: how many career touchdowns did you get that career? One 435 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 1: more than he scored in one day and one half. 436 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 1: Excuse me, I stand corrected. I stand corrected. Well, we 437 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:36,439 Speaker 1: can go back to Penn State and we can talk 438 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 1: about that's right quarterback position. Let's get to this rushing 439 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 1: attack of the Seattle Seahawks. Marshawn Lynch and we were 440 00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,360 Speaker 1: talking a little bit earlier the fact that they've drafted 441 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:50,439 Speaker 1: Bob Turbin and they've drafted Christen Michael here is, does 442 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 1: that a signal When you're on a team and you're 443 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 1: running back and you see guys coming in high draft picks, 444 00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 1: you start kind of what's going on here? No. I 445 00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 1: think that the Seahawks know that this is a year 446 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,880 Speaker 1: that Marshawn is gonna still go off and do his thing. 447 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,440 Speaker 1: But I think that Pete always has got guys around 448 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 1: him that can play the game, and so he stacks 449 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 1: a team to go and do jobs, and they're there, 450 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 1: guys are a little bit different. I think it just 451 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 1: embodies the culture of competitions. Every year I've been in 452 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: the National Football League, running back has been drafted, and 453 00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 1: in my position, fullback, tailback, whatever it may be. It 454 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,359 Speaker 1: just adds to the atmosphere that in the culture that 455 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 1: Pete tries to create with with competition, it's only gonna 456 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:29,920 Speaker 1: make Marshawn better. That's drafting another back. It's only gonna 457 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 1: make the team better. From a practical standpoint, then, if 458 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:34,480 Speaker 1: you're a fantasy owner, and you have Marshawn Lynch that 459 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 1: any concerns that we're gonna see some Christen Michael either 460 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 1: to save somewhere and tear on Lynch for January or otherwise. No. 461 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,400 Speaker 1: I think Marshawn is very um. He's gonna run angry tonight. 462 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:47,240 Speaker 1: I anticipate that, you know, just having conversations with him 463 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 1: and spending time with him since I've been in town. 464 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 1: You know, he feels like he has something to prove. 465 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:56,920 Speaker 1: I'm like my sign, you're you're man. Let me tell you. 466 00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:59,880 Speaker 1: When I got drafted two thousand, Ricky Waters was a tailback, 467 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,680 Speaker 1: and I tell you it cranked him up a little 468 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:04,879 Speaker 1: bit too. I saw him making some plays that he 469 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,159 Speaker 1: didn't make to play the years before when I was 470 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 1: still in college, and he came back fired up because 471 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 1: he wanted to make sure that he had something to 472 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 1: play for and something to prove to. I think Marshawn's 473 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:15,640 Speaker 1: gonna do the same thing. I don't know if Marshaw knows. 474 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 1: You remember the media now having that kind of conversation 475 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 1: with You've given you more than a couple of words. 476 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,880 Speaker 1: What about Russell Wilson and and him perhaps taking more 477 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 1: ownership in this offense and whether or not this canna 478 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 1: become more of a passing offense. Now, I think it's 479 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 1: it's just to as part of the maturation process. I mean, 480 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 1: he's growing up. I mean he's had so much success 481 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 1: in his first couple of years. I mean it's almost like, 482 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 1: what can he do next? But that's his mentality, what's 483 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 1: the next challenge? That he's very uncommon in that from 484 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: that standpoint, they don't want to just win one championship. 485 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 1: He doesn't just want to be a great quarterback. He 486 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,640 Speaker 1: wants to be the best quarterback to ever play the game. 487 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 1: That says something about who he is. It says something 488 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: about his commitment and and and and he says something 489 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 1: about this team and why he's the quarterback that's right. 490 00:23:57,600 --> 00:23:59,399 Speaker 1: He set the goals from the very beginning that he 491 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: wasn't going to be just a regular guy. He's gonna 492 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:03,879 Speaker 1: be one of the best. And he doesn't mind telling 493 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:05,639 Speaker 1: the guys on the team, he doesn't mind setting it 494 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:07,919 Speaker 1: up that everybody knows what his goal is. It's to 495 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 1: be more than just special. All right. So there will 496 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: be another team that shows up here tonight to play 497 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 1: the game. That team is called the Green Bay Packers 498 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 1: and finally Aaron Rodgers has a running game behind him. 499 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 1: Eddie Lacey. You know last year some success against the 500 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:25,919 Speaker 1: against the Seahawks defense on the ground meant victories for 501 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 1: the three teams that beat you. Any chance Eddie Lacy 502 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:30,879 Speaker 1: gets rolling tonight, well, I think that's the only chance 503 00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 1: that they really have. I think, uh, the Seahawks defense 504 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,119 Speaker 1: they almost bullied people. Sometimes they beat you up the 505 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,160 Speaker 1: you know, they have a great time doing it too. 506 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 1: So you kind of have to punch him back in 507 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:42,560 Speaker 1: the mouth and and and that's what we did with 508 00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 1: San Francisco the last few years. You kind of had 509 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: to punch him back in the mouth. They don't like that. 510 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 1: And so if they're gonna have a chance to win 511 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 1: this game, they have to control the trenches on the 512 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,520 Speaker 1: at the line of scrimmage from the offensive line without 513 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 1: a doubt. You know, Eddie Lacey is an Alabama guy, 514 00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:00,360 Speaker 1: and we've been watching. But that's what Green It knows. 515 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 1: They know that Aaron Rodgers gonna do what he's gonna do. 516 00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:04,960 Speaker 1: But as soon as Eddie Lacey got rolling, they knew 517 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: they had a chance to get to another level again 518 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:08,879 Speaker 1: and hopefully get them back to the super Bowl. But 519 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a great game tonight. I'm gonna I'm 520 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 1: gonna order. I'm gonna order off the menu real quick 521 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:15,640 Speaker 1: because something just jumped out of me. Here. You Alabama guys, 522 00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,080 Speaker 1: roll tied, roll and you hang together. What's going on? 523 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:20,600 Speaker 1: Trent Richardson? I know, I know it's off schedule here, 524 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:22,239 Speaker 1: but but do you know Trent is he gonna get 525 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 1: it right this year because a lot of fantasy fans 526 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 1: are drafting him late thinking, come on, what happened to that? 527 00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,720 Speaker 1: Trent Richardson? They got a national championship for Alabama. I 528 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:30,719 Speaker 1: have not talked to him since he went to Indie, 529 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:32,719 Speaker 1: but I would love to and I probably will get 530 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 1: him with shout you're getting rights will be better. You 531 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,160 Speaker 1: guys will want to make a prediction for tonight. Who 532 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:41,440 Speaker 1: who has the most points out there for these fantasy teams. 533 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:43,359 Speaker 1: Who's the star of the show tonight. I think you 534 00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,440 Speaker 1: feed Mars Shawn Lynch. I think Mars Shawn Lynch will 535 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 1: take the show. From a fantasy standpoint. I think he's 536 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 1: gonna have over a hundred yards. I think they'll have 537 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,440 Speaker 1: two and more touchdowns. He's angry, but check out for 538 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 1: Percy Harving. Also, yeah, I think that Marshawn's gonna score 539 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 1: tight touchdowns is how you get I mean, that's how 540 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: my name got known. Once. Once we go out of 541 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:02,240 Speaker 1: the Seattle, you know, like this guy's going on the 542 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:05,199 Speaker 1: touch noowns. Marshawn's gonna put up too, and and hopefully 543 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:08,240 Speaker 1: we keep Eddie to one and then and then we're 544 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 1: gonna be all right, you're gonna give him one. I 545 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 1: know that they gave away rushing touchdown series. We really don't. 546 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 1: We really don't. But I think that the Green base 547 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 1: is gonna try to force that. And I think that 548 00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 1: that though, you know, I gotta get two to one. 549 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,720 Speaker 1: Good guys, because I I had a little fun with 550 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:23,919 Speaker 1: your career touchdowns. I gotta give you a tip of 551 00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:26,159 Speaker 1: the hat. A J Hawk, who will be out there tonight. 552 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:28,680 Speaker 1: I asked him once, who's the toughest quarterback to sack? 553 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:34,119 Speaker 1: He said, Michael Robinson A penny Steaks. Appreciate it, man. Alright, 554 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,159 Speaker 1: Tall week, we are asking you fans to help us 555 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:38,440 Speaker 1: set a world record as we get back to football. 556 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:40,679 Speaker 1: We want you to upload a picture of yourself wearing 557 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:44,240 Speaker 1: your team's jersey to NFL dot Com slash back to 558 00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 1: football Friday and help us break the record for the 559 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 1: most jersey photos in an online album.

Do you 561 00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 1: remember your first ever pick in fantasy football? Well, we 562 00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:02,719 Speaker 1: tracked down the guys who held the first fantasy draft. 563 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:06,359 Speaker 1: We're back in nineteen sixty two to ask who their 564 00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:09,679 Speaker 1: top picks were when they was still its infancy. Plus 565 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 1: get ready to make some tough decisions. We've got four 566 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 1: top flight players who you may actually consider sitting in 567 00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 1: Week one despite their lofty draft positions. And we are 568 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 1: digging deep, my friends, and making some bold predictions about 569 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:26,240 Speaker 1: who will put up big fantasy points this weekend. This 570 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:31,200 Speaker 1: is NFL Fantasy Live, presented by those all right. Making 571 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 1: the wrong first round pick has some the hopes of 572 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 1: many a fantasy football GM. It was no different in 573 00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 1: nineteen sixty two when the pioneers of the fake game 574 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:49,360 Speaker 1: gathered to draft their teams. In November nineteen sixty two, 575 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 1: on a quiet cul de sac in Oakland, a group 576 00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 1: of men gathered to hold the first ever fantasy football draft. 577 00:27:56,720 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 1: There was no Internet. Information came from two basic sources. 578 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:04,000 Speaker 1: One of the daily newspaper, and in the case of 579 00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 1: football magazines like Street Smith would have the previous years 580 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,960 Speaker 1: SATs that evening is that when when going back we 581 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 1: gave us all the rules, that we looked at them 582 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,479 Speaker 1: for a few minutes. We've got a little excited. The 583 00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 1: purpose of the league has just written is to bring 584 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:26,560 Speaker 1: together some of Okland's finest Saturday morning gridiron forecasters to 585 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:31,200 Speaker 1: put their respective brains against each other. You drafted the 586 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 1: four ends, four receivers for halfback, two fullbacks, two quarterbacks 587 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 1: to kick off and punt returners to field goal kickers, 588 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 1: two defensive backs or linebackers, and too defensive linemen. It 589 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 1: was exciting. Everybody was, you know, all of a sudden, Uh, 590 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 1: now we got the first draft. The first draft meant 591 00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 1: the first overall pick, a faithful selection. That meant as 592 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:57,239 Speaker 1: much then as it does today. What we did was 593 00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 1: randomly select out of a half at the order of 594 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:05,360 Speaker 1: the draft. I came up one and Indian. I drafted 595 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 1: George Bland. Bland knew that George Blander was throwing the 596 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 1: hill out of the balls in Houston. Bright, touchdown Blue. 597 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 1: Let's get in here. They'll throw a lot of touchdown. 598 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:17,800 Speaker 1: So he was the first guy every drafted what became 599 00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 1: forsy from ball without realizing there wasn't So there wasn't 600 00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 1: that much difference between say, George Bland and White Tittle 601 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 1: or wherever what other quarterbacks that were. But there was 602 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 1: a huge difference between the Jim Brown and Hill and 603 00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:36,959 Speaker 1: running backs. So we took Blander the next the second 604 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 1: franchise took Jim Brown, Jim Brown, the Miiddali Brown of 605 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:46,080 Speaker 1: the body. They came in first, we came in last. 606 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:52,320 Speaker 1: How about that? Are very on Matt money Smith narrating 607 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 1: the second installment of our Fantasy Origin series. There quarterback 608 00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 1: George Bland out of the Houston Oilers, the number one 609 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 1: picked back in nineteen sixty two. Drafting strategies have evolved 610 00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 1: over the years. As recently as a couple of years ago, 611 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 1: you almost had to take a running back in the 612 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 1: first round. But now we're seeing, you know a lot 613 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:11,520 Speaker 1: of qbs wide receivers, even even tight ends. Jimmy Graham 614 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:14,080 Speaker 1: constantly a first round pick, and we never saw that, 615 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 1: you know, a few years back. So you know, how 616 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 1: do you guys think the game is gonna be going 617 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 1: moving forward? Listen, I've been drafting running backs early my 618 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 1: whole life, and I'm still doing it. I know quarterbacks 619 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,560 Speaker 1: have more value. Wide receivers are moving up in terms 620 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 1: of shock. But what did they say, Jim Brown? Right, 621 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 1: he was the guy and he was so much better 622 00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 1: than the next running back. You've got what five or 623 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 1: six guys like that this year, So you're still drafting 624 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:39,000 Speaker 1: running backs early. Well. And I'll also say too, from 625 00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 1: the player's perspective to the nutritional science has changed, the 626 00:30:41,680 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 1: workout habits has changed, so you're starting to see a 627 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 1: lot more freakish athletes. And then the offense has changed, 628 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: so you get those two mixed up together now all 629 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 1: of a sudden. That's why Calvin Johnson, Jimmy Graham, those guys, 630 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 1: that's why it makes sense to take them in the 631 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:54,720 Speaker 1: first round. See. I took Dave Casper in my first 632 00:30:54,760 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 1: ever fantasy draft. I just I locked. I like to 633 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:00,040 Speaker 1: rock the boat, so I went with Dave cash of 634 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 1: the But you know, I noticed over all the drafts 635 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 1: that I did over the last month or so. You know, 636 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,880 Speaker 1: in some leagues, I took Adrian Peterson with the fourth 637 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,560 Speaker 1: overall pick, Matt Forte with the first pick, Jimmy Graham 638 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 1: with the ninth. I'm all over the place. I'm just 639 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 1: letting the draft come to me, and I think in 640 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:15,479 Speaker 1: the future, we're gonna stop playing two running backs as 641 00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 1: a standard format. You're gonna go to one running back 642 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,840 Speaker 1: and all flexes, just like the NFL. Is interesting, all right. 643 00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:24,240 Speaker 1: So in terms of the drafting strategy you saw back then, 644 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 1: what's your major takeaway? George Bland a number one that's 645 00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 1: not expousive. And there was a point in Bland's career 646 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 1: where he was actually a field goal kicker too, So 647 00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:35,280 Speaker 1: you saw touchdown passes, passing yards, field goals and extra points. 648 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:38,680 Speaker 1: Imagine if Peyton Manning could be field goals, how valuable 649 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 1: that guy would be. The Paul Horning kick too. So 650 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 1: that's the great part. So Paul Horning was a running back, 651 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 1: so he's getting all that was running yards, and he 652 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:48,480 Speaker 1: was a kicker. I would have liked Luke Roza because 653 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 1: you're you're drafting alignment, but he's the kicker. Well, here's 654 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:53,440 Speaker 1: the other thing too that that that was big then 655 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 1: was i DP was really big talk about the type 656 00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 1: of guys that would be real success on in those 657 00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 1: I d P leaves Clay Matthew comes to mind. I 658 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 1: like it all right.

Yes, that's right, Dave. 678 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 1: You look like you're kind of in the same get 679 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 1: up that I saw you in last night. I'm gonna 680 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 1: I know it's probably rude of me to bring up, 681 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 1: but I just not recognized. So I'm not ashamed to 682 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:38,840 Speaker 1: say I am so excited about football season. I haven't 683 00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:40,960 Speaker 1: been asleep for two days now, and I won't sleep 684 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,240 Speaker 1: at least until this game. That's a lie. Yeah, well 685 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 1: listen either way, I went to the Spitfire Bar here 686 00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 1: in Seattle to oversee some fantasy drafting. Take a look 687 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 1: hig in. Hello, Dave damnishek here up here in Seattle, Washington, 688 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:58,080 Speaker 1: home of the world champion Seattle Seahawks. I've stopped by 689 00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 1: the Spitfire Bar to check in with fantasy football enthusiasts 690 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 1: as they conduct their drafts. Take Marshawn Lynch, Percy, Harvin, 691 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:16,720 Speaker 1: Russell Wilson, and perhaps even Colin Kaepernick a j grey 692 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:26,439 Speaker 1: bore first round? Who'd you go Giovanni Bernard in the round? Now, 693 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:29,359 Speaker 1: what exactly are you doing it? What do you think 694 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:32,600 Speaker 1: about Thursday night? Get Well? I think it's pretty much 695 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:34,439 Speaker 1: a gimme you gotta make up for the fail Mary. 696 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:43,359 Speaker 1: There's a love to the end, which is, who are 697 00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:47,279 Speaker 1: so raw though about what happened in the failed Mary game? 698 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:50,759 Speaker 1: That you would never draft gold and pay under any circumstances. 699 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:57,440 Speaker 1: If I really needed a receiver, I guess lose a 700 00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:01,920 Speaker 1: better fantasy quarterback, Colin Kaepernick or Russell Wilson. I like 701 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:05,480 Speaker 1: your Matt Stafford Nick. He's in store for a big year. Okay, 702 00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 1: all right, so a long night is now complete from 703 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 1: the spitfire here in Seattle, Washington. You'll watch the big 704 00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:15,359 Speaker 1: game on Thursday night. In meantime, I want to tell 705 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:19,839 Speaker 1: you Adrian Peterson, Calvin Johnson, and Jimmy Graham all were drafted. 706 00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:25,399 Speaker 1: And with that, I bid you good day. You bid 707 00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:29,279 Speaker 1: them good day? We bid you? Yes nice. I like 708 00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:32,320 Speaker 1: the squad. I was just inspecting their socks. Socks or 709 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 1: neon in blue a thing. Let's let's interact with the 710 00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:38,719 Speaker 1: fine fans, get some fantasy questions about this particular game 711 00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:41,440 Speaker 1: and maybe this season as a whole. So let's say 712 00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:44,359 Speaker 1: you have a Seahawks receiver. I heard the robot doesn't 713 00:35:44,400 --> 00:35:46,920 Speaker 1: talk right, you're talking for the robot Okay, so here 714 00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:49,480 Speaker 1: we go. I don't have Percy Harvin. Is there another 715 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,840 Speaker 1: Seahawks receiver that I should be starting tonight? Doug Baldwin, 716 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:57,160 Speaker 1: of course, Jermaine Curse. I'm starting all those guys all right, 717 00:35:57,280 --> 00:36:00,200 Speaker 1: Doug Baldwin, Jermaine Curse, you're starting them tonight? What do you? God? 718 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 1: Don't we have bona fide celebrity in our presence here? 719 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:06,640 Speaker 1: How are you? Pope? I didn't know that. So God 720 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:09,080 Speaker 1: is in fact on the Seahawks side of things up 721 00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:12,200 Speaker 1: and I just want to say, officially, the immacuate reception 722 00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:14,480 Speaker 1: has been blessed by the men upstairs. So it's a touchdown. 723 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,319 Speaker 1: Let me ask you this, sister, fail Mary, is it 724 00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:20,320 Speaker 1: cool tonight if you have Aaron Rodgers on your fantasy 725 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:23,759 Speaker 1: team to start him? Well, you know, as a very 726 00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:25,879 Speaker 1: avid Seahawk fan, I'm gonna have to say no, that's 727 00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:28,919 Speaker 1: that's I think that's the right answer there. These people 728 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:30,800 Speaker 1: are on the right page here. You don't start Packers 729 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:32,839 Speaker 1: if you're a Seahawks fan, certainly you do. If you're 730 00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:35,560 Speaker 1: gonna win your fantasy league, you start Packers. You start 731 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:40,080 Speaker 1: Eddie Lacey, you start Aaron Rodgers, you start him. Everybody, everybody, 732 00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:47,240 Speaker 1: all right, help me Molly. Thanks guys, time for coaching 733 00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:51,080 Speaker 1: decisions presented by Lenovilo. All I have to say is wow, 734 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 1: and that just happened. Hey, it's a tough job. Somebody's 735 00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:56,239 Speaker 1: got to do it right. Thanks to those two for 736 00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:59,000 Speaker 1: braving the elements, which I got an invite to the spitfire. 737 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:02,120 Speaker 1: Just saying. But anyway, back to business. We all talk 738 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:04,600 Speaker 1: about the players you should draft, the players you should start, 739 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:07,280 Speaker 1: but you have to play the matchups every week as well. 740 00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:09,880 Speaker 1: Michael Fabiano and Adam Rank here and they're gonna give 741 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 1: us a few players you should consider benching out of 742 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:14,600 Speaker 1: the gate and they might come as a surprise, and 743 00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 1: Adam will start with you. And it's Philip Rivers Monday 744 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:19,799 Speaker 1: night football at Arizona, and we know how tough that 745 00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:22,880 Speaker 1: defense is, especially at home. Yeah, I really was excited 746 00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:24,759 Speaker 1: about getting Philip Rivers in my league. He's think he's 747 00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:27,120 Speaker 1: gonna have a fantastic season, but then you look at 748 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:29,400 Speaker 1: his first two games. He's going up against the Birds 749 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:32,520 Speaker 1: down there in Arizona, who are primed for a breakout season. 750 00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:34,719 Speaker 1: Of course, he's got the Seahawks in week two, and 751 00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:37,120 Speaker 1: I'm looking at this matchup though this week, and you 752 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:40,040 Speaker 1: look at Patrick Peterson, you look at Antonio Carimardi. They 753 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,120 Speaker 1: added you can in there in the secondary, and then 754 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:44,480 Speaker 1: it just looks tougher than I thought it was gonna be. 755 00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:47,400 Speaker 1: And so now I'm really in this conundrum of whether 756 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:49,440 Speaker 1: I sit Philip Rivers or not, and I'm starting to 757 00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:51,480 Speaker 1: look through the waiver wire. So I'm kind of panicking 758 00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 1: on Philip Rivers because the Cardinals defense is so tough. 759 00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:56,719 Speaker 1: They're gonna be a tough matchup on everybody. They were 760 00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 1: very tough intercepting the ball last year too, So it's 761 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:01,640 Speaker 1: one of those I don't know, it's gonna be a 762 00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:03,840 Speaker 1: game time for me. I also got Carson Palmer, so 763 00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:06,600 Speaker 1: it's coming down to that game. But Philip Rivers big, 764 00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:08,840 Speaker 1: big concern. Yeah, no to Philip Rivers, but play that 765 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:12,320 Speaker 1: Arizona defense. FABS m j d is at the Jets, 766 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:14,520 Speaker 1: and we know how tough Rex Ryan's defense is. And 767 00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:18,839 Speaker 1: also rookie quarterback exactly, this is a major concern if 768 00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,520 Speaker 1: you have Maurice Jones Drew on your fantasy football team, 769 00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:25,480 Speaker 1: because nothing is in his favor rookie quarterback. Jets defense 770 00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 1: aggressive they're gonna put eight in the box and j 771 00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:32,480 Speaker 1: D third few fantasy points allowed via defense to running backs. 772 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:34,560 Speaker 1: That was the men in Green last year. No, by 773 00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:37,440 Speaker 1: the way, Maurice Jones Drew rushed for sixty or a 774 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:41,440 Speaker 1: few yards six times in his last seven games in 775 00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:45,320 Speaker 1: the month of September. He is a risky proposition. Alright, 776 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:47,640 Speaker 1: we're passing on m j D and we might also 777 00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:50,000 Speaker 1: be passing on Bernard Pierce. Now, this would seem to 778 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 1: be a good play with Ray Rice out, but it's 779 00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:53,719 Speaker 1: a tough matchup. Yeah. I know a lot of people 780 00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:56,759 Speaker 1: probably drafted Bernard Pierce thinking these first two games, he's 781 00:38:56,760 --> 00:38:58,840 Speaker 1: gonna go out there and have the whole show to himself. 782 00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:01,279 Speaker 1: And really, if you think about Bernard Piers, he's a 783 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:04,839 Speaker 1: great fit for Gary Kubiak's offense. So you're thinking, yeah, 784 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 1: you know what, I gotta sneaky little play here. I'm 785 00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:09,439 Speaker 1: gonna put him out there in Week one, except they're 786 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:13,279 Speaker 1: playing the very tough Cincinnati Bengals matchup I just don't like. 787 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:15,279 Speaker 1: And then you've got to have other options because I 788 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:18,279 Speaker 1: can't imagine many of you were drafting Bernard Piers to 789 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:19,880 Speaker 1: be your number one or number two guy, but he 790 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,680 Speaker 1: was a candidate to be a flex option. I'm gonna 791 00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:24,520 Speaker 1: tell you to pass on it. Leave him for the 792 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:27,000 Speaker 1: next week, just past this week. We all can't have 793 00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:31,240 Speaker 1: the show to ourselves like Dave Damask and spitfirebar Babs. 794 00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:33,160 Speaker 1: Mike Wallace, you know he broke my heart last year 795 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:36,920 Speaker 1: against New England with Darrell Rivas Bill Belichick that defense 796 00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:40,799 Speaker 1: Rivas Island. You might look at Wallace and say, oh, well, 797 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:43,440 Speaker 1: look what he did last year against the Patriots right 798 00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:46,080 Speaker 1: in Miami. He had a great game. Darrell Rivas was 799 00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 1: not on that team. Guys, Rivas Island is now in 800 00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:52,000 Speaker 1: New England. He's gonna be in South Florida this week. 801 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,719 Speaker 1: He is gonna be shadowing Mike Wallas Brandon Browners on 802 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:57,000 Speaker 1: for the first board games. So I don't see Revas 803 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:58,960 Speaker 1: covering anyone else. I'm not gonna put him on Brian 804 00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:01,839 Speaker 1: Hartline for the entire game. So Mike Wallace, although I 805 00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:03,840 Speaker 1: like him for the duration of the season to have 806 00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 1: a better year than he is a guy to sit 807 00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:11,400 Speaker 1: in week one. Those are coaching decisions presented by Lenovo 808 00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:14,200 Speaker 1: in as you were saying, uh, Babs, Yeah, they're also 809 00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:16,439 Speaker 1: gonna get Brandon Browner back, that defense is just gonna 810 00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:20,839 Speaker 1: get better in better. Uh so any other that we're 811 00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:23,200 Speaker 1: concerned about, anyone else you want to throw out real quick, guys, 812 00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:27,960 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say for the season, Jamal Charles, I I 813 00:40:28,120 --> 00:40:30,239 Speaker 1: passed on him in a couple of jobs. I did. 814 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:32,839 Speaker 1: I had to because you know, when Lasha McCoy had 815 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:35,279 Speaker 1: his breakout season, he followed it up with a dud. 816 00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:37,760 Speaker 1: I'm looking the same thing from Charles. This is ludicrous. 817 00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:39,680 Speaker 1: I'll be paying attention to that.

All right, so here we go. Time for 832 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:30,320 Speaker 1: our everyday performance presented by bridge Stone. There's some players 833 00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:32,920 Speaker 1: that are matchup proof. We know about Peyton Manning and 834 00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:35,719 Speaker 1: the Drew Breeses of the world. The Shawn McCoy. I 835 00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:39,800 Speaker 1: thought Jrmaal Charles until I thought, if I can channel 836 00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:43,200 Speaker 1: my inter rock, it doesn't matter who those guys are playing. 837 00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:46,160 Speaker 1: But this week, who can you depend on? What we're 838 00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:48,680 Speaker 1: here with our everyday performers that you can't count on 839 00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 1: to put your mind of these as you set your 840 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:54,440 Speaker 1: lineups this week. Fabs Andrew Luck versus Denver. You like 841 00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:57,160 Speaker 1: the matchup touch? I just love Andrew Lucky. Yeah, maybe 842 00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:00,080 Speaker 1: there's going to be a little competitive juice going on 843 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:02,920 Speaker 1: there against Peyton Manning. He's gonna want to go throw 844 00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:06,120 Speaker 1: for throw with Peyton Manning. Throw out the defenses. I 845 00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:08,520 Speaker 1: know the Broncos improved in the off season. This one's 846 00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:11,160 Speaker 1: gonna be a shootout. He's got great weapons in that 847 00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:13,360 Speaker 1: passing game, and a lot of them. T Y Hilton, 848 00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:15,920 Speaker 1: Reggie Wayne's back. We all know they signed the Key 849 00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:18,520 Speaker 1: Knicks and let's let's face it, guys, Trey Richardson can't 850 00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:21,920 Speaker 1: run the football effectively. They're gonna throw, throw, and throw 851 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 1: some more. Andrew Lux gonna score you at least twenty points. 852 00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:27,640 Speaker 1: Lock it up, okay, Adam Ryan, talk to him about 853 00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:30,080 Speaker 1: a Kwon Bolden. He's playing Dallas. I know you don't 854 00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:32,279 Speaker 1: like him as a long term solution, but a week 855 00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:34,680 Speaker 1: one starter, yes or no? And Kwon Bolden is a 856 00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:38,240 Speaker 1: lock of the week. He has MR Week one because 857 00:42:38,239 --> 00:42:41,360 Speaker 1: over the last three seasons he has scored a touchdown 858 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:45,080 Speaker 1: in Week one. He has scored seven career Week one 859 00:42:45,160 --> 00:42:48,440 Speaker 1: touchdowns in eleven years. And again, like Mike was just 860 00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:50,759 Speaker 1: talking about shootouts, you want to talk about shootouts. This 861 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:54,319 Speaker 1: is gonna be like an Arena League game. The Cowboys 862 00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:57,160 Speaker 1: and the forty Niners, up and down the field, and 863 00:42:57,360 --> 00:43:00,239 Speaker 1: Kwan Bolden, you start him. That's the bottom line. Nine. 864 00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:05,640 Speaker 1: Because Adam k said, de Marco Murray versus San Francisco, 865 00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:07,920 Speaker 1: We'll stay in this game. Bar talk to me about it. 866 00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:10,319 Speaker 1: We'll forgive everything that you know, because you know, there 867 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:12,560 Speaker 1: used to be a time where we looked at this 868 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:15,800 Speaker 1: San Francisco forty Niners defensive said that they were legit, 869 00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:17,239 Speaker 1: but there's a lot of issues going on with this 870 00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:21,680 Speaker 1: forty Niners defense. You lose of course, Alden Smith to suspension, 871 00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:23,799 Speaker 1: to borrow Bowman, he's out. And then of course there's 872 00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:26,799 Speaker 1: the Ray McDonald's situation. This is a prime opportunity for 873 00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:29,600 Speaker 1: de Marco Murray with the without this situation to get 874 00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:31,799 Speaker 1: off in this game. I believe that this is going 875 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:33,719 Speaker 1: to be a big time game for him. He's got 876 00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:36,160 Speaker 1: the production there. He's got nine touchdowns in the last 877 00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:39,160 Speaker 1: ten games in two thirteen. This is for real. He's 878 00:43:39,160 --> 00:43:44,239 Speaker 1: no Jabroni Performers presented by Brig Stone. I like it. 879 00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:48,200 Speaker 1: A lot of pro wrestling references in this stone cold locks. 880 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:50,399 Speaker 1: How can you go any like it? If very quickly, 881 00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:52,759 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say DeAndre Hopkins will be my Stone colde 882 00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:56,000 Speaker 1: lock of the week. He's playing the Washington Redskins semi 883 00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:57,879 Speaker 1: soft to defense there, and I think they're gonna throw 884 00:43:57,880 --> 00:43:59,520 Speaker 1: it out a little bit at least I would think so. 885 00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:02,319 Speaker 1: So yeah, DeAndre Hopkins. And of course, as you guys know, 886 00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:04,319 Speaker 1: I don't want to wear heels. I'll be this big game. 887 00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:08,280 Speaker 1: We don't want him to wear heels either every Thursday. 888 00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:10,880 Speaker 1: All season long, we'll be asking you to help us 889 00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 1: on everyday performance
