  SPEAKER_03: But how are you doing?
• 1:14
  SPEAKER_04: I'm doing good.
• 1:15
  SPEAKER_04: I'm like still getting myself together.
• 1:19
  SPEAKER_04: Um, I've had some interviews, I've been doing a lot of podcasts this week.
• 1:26
  SPEAKER_04: It's been a busy week.
• 1:29
  SPEAKER_04: So here we go.
• 1:30
  SPEAKER_03: It has.
• 1:31
  SPEAKER_03: It has, and here we go.
• 1:32
  SPEAKER_03: And I'm gonna tell you guys right now, that's on me.
• 1:35
  SPEAKER_03: That was the theme that these coaches were talking about in press conferences.
• 1:40
  SPEAKER_03: I don't know how many coaches I counted like five of them, uh, so the some of the coaching press conferences that I heard, and a lot of them were saying, That's on me.
• 1:48
  SPEAKER_03: And you know what else was on actually on me?
• 1:50
  SPEAKER_03: James Cook.
• 1:51
  SPEAKER_03: I went ahead and said, beware of James Cook last week.
• 1:54
  SPEAKER_03: And you know what?
• 1:55
  SPEAKER_03: He went and had two fumbles, but he also had two touchdowns and over a hundred yards.
• 2:00
  SPEAKER_03: So that's on me calling that.
• 2:02
  SPEAKER_03: But we're gonna talk to you guys about some players that we're gonna forgive or forget, right, Nico?
• 2:09
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I mean, we gotta be forgiving.
• 2:11
  SPEAKER_01: We're a very special crew, we're always willing to give people a second chance, but there's a few people we want to forget about too.
• 2:18
  SPEAKER_01: So looking forward to diving into it.
• 2:19
  SPEAKER_01: Forgive me.
• 2:23
  SPEAKER_01: Um I guess I have to do it again just because I like it.
• 2:26
  SPEAKER_01: Do it again, do it again, do it again.
• 2:28
  SPEAKER_04: Yes, I've been bad with you.
• 2:30
  SPEAKER_04: Please forgive me.
• 2:31
  SPEAKER_00: Oh wow, that's kind of saucy.
• 2:34
  SPEAKER_00: That's kind of saucy, Kelly.
• 2:36
  SPEAKER_04: A little saucy, you know.
• 2:37
  SPEAKER_04: I like it.
• 2:38
  SPEAKER_04: I don't know what you expect from me, but that's what you get.
• 2:42
  SPEAKER_04: It's a little saucy.
• 2:44
  SPEAKER_01: So for uh this segment, uh, we're gonna be talking about two players, uh, one that we're gonna forgive for last week's performance, and one that we are going to forget about.
• 2:55
  SPEAKER_01: So um, Tip, why don't you lead us off?
• 2:58
  SPEAKER_01: Uh you can go first and talk about your person that you're willing to forgive uh for last week's gonna be aware of.
• 3:03
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, it's Bijan, man.
• 3:04
  SPEAKER_03: Uh, you know, he's coming off a couple of weeks that, you know, he broke fantasy football.
• 3:10
  SPEAKER_03: He did what Bichon typically does.
• 3:13
  SPEAKER_03: And last week he didn't perform the way we wanted.
• 3:16
  SPEAKER_03: And and it could be a lot because of uh the defense of Baltimore Ravens, they keened in on him and they wanted they dared that they dared him to stop them.
• 3:25
  SPEAKER_03: And you've got Rokon Smith, you've got really good uh safeties as well, and Kyle Hamilton.
• 3:31
  SPEAKER_03: Those guys are gonna be there ready to stop B.
• 3:33
  SPEAKER_03: John Robinson, and they did.
• 3:34
  SPEAKER_03: So I'm gonna forgive him though, because I've got to tell you, this kid is special.
• 3:38
  SPEAKER_03: He's been special all week.
• 3:39
  SPEAKER_03: He's worked on his speed, he's worked on his his agility is second to none.
• 3:43
  SPEAKER_03: And what he can do for this offense, now that we know that Michael Penix has an opportunity to play, um, that's gonna be a big piece of it too.
• 3:52
  SPEAKER_03: So I'm willing to forgive B.
• 3:54
  SPEAKER_03: John Robertson this week.
• 3:55
  SPEAKER_03: But I'm telling you who I'm not gonna forgive, who I am forgetting, Jalen Hurts.
• 4:02
  SPEAKER_03: You're hurting my soul, brother.
• 4:03
  SPEAKER_03: I went out and traded for you in a couple of leagues this year because I thought you were gonna have an MVP type season.
• 4:10
  SPEAKER_03: I actually said you're gonna be an MVP this year, and you have been an MVP.
• 4:14
  SPEAKER_03: No, you haven't been doing anything, you haven't done anything for this offense.
• 4:18
  SPEAKER_03: You're you're playing a bad against a bad uh with a bad offensive line.
• 4:22
  SPEAKER_03: You haven't had Saquon Barkley.
• 4:23
  SPEAKER_03: I know.
• 4:24
  SPEAKER_03: Hopefully, we can get him back.
• 4:25
  SPEAKER_03: I'm praying we can get him back.
• 4:26
  SPEAKER_03: I think that we will, and I'll talk a little bit more about him, but that's who I'm not willing to forget.
• 4:31
  SPEAKER_03: Nico, who are you gonna forgive?
• 4:34
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I mean, as far as Bijan goes, 13.8 fantasy points in as a floor, I mean, is still phenomenal.
• 4:42
  SPEAKER_01: But yeah, that Eagles offense is there's something going on there, there's a lot going on.
• 4:48
  SPEAKER_01: Um, Kelly, do you have something you want to add?
• 4:50
  SPEAKER_04: I saw a little No, my camera's haunted.
• 4:52
  SPEAKER_04: I had to make it stop.
• 4:54
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, stop.
• 4:55
  SPEAKER_01: It's it's spooky season, it's Halloween season, so um, I'll forgive you for that.
• 5:00
  SPEAKER_01: Thank you.
• 5:00
  SPEAKER_01: Um, but no, who I'm gonna go ahead and forgive is I'm gonna forgive T.
• 5:04
  SPEAKER_01: Higgins uh for his 2.3 fantasy point performance last week.
• 5:10
  SPEAKER_01: Uh, he was dealing with several injuries coming into the game, and surprisingly, I don't know if y'all know this or not, but the Dolphins have been pretty stingy against opposing wide receivers.
• 5:21
  SPEAKER_01: They've allowed the second fewest fantasy points to opposing wide receivers.
• 5:25
  SPEAKER_01: The Bengals were also up uh 18 points going into the fourth quarter, which meant Higgins didn't really have to push it, especially coming off those injuries.
• 5:34
  SPEAKER_01: T's been absolutely fine on the season.
• 5:36
  SPEAKER_01: He's ranked top 15 in routes and targets per game, and 13th in yards per route run and 20th in fantasy points per game, ninth in targets, fourth in air yards.
• 5:47
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, he's still proving to be one of the more reliable wide receiver twos in the game.
• 5:53
  SPEAKER_01: The Bengals are on a bye this week, so if there is a potential buy low opportunity for a team that you know is in a must-win already in week six here, which is possible if you're sitting at one and four or oh and five, and they happen to have T.
• 6:07
  SPEAKER_01: Higgins, go ahead and get some feelers out.
• 6:09
  SPEAKER_01: And the player that I am going to forget about is I'm gonna forget about Marshawn Lloyd.
• 6:16
  SPEAKER_01: That dude had 16.2 fantasy points, but it was on 10 carries for 31 yards with two tugs and two receptions.
• 6:26
  SPEAKER_01: Now he's the RB32 on the season, and when you take a look under the hood, though, it's not pretty.
• 6:32
  SPEAKER_01: Second percentile in yards per carry, EPA per attempt.
• 6:36
  SPEAKER_01: He's dead last amongst qualified RBs in yards after contact per attempt, 22nd amongst running backs in fantasy points per game, and even his expected fantasy points per game is ranked 36.
• 6:49
  SPEAKER_01: The guy's not efficient, he's not getting great opportunity, and his overall production is lacking.
• 6:55
  SPEAKER_01: I know that Packers' offensive line has its issues, and I know he was a hot commodity on the waiver wire potentially this week, especially with Chris Brooks uh on the IR with an ankle injury, but I am not buying what Lloyd is selling as a runner, so I'm going to forget about his week five performance.
• 7:14
  SPEAKER_03: Well, so you're telling me that the Packers have a jag on their team, right?
• 7:21
  SPEAKER_01: They got a jag, they got a jag.
• 7:24
  SPEAKER_01: Absolutely.
• 7:26
  SPEAKER_01: Absolutely, just a guy.
• 7:27
  SPEAKER_01: That dude is just a guy, and I know I I trust, I think so.
• 7:30
  SPEAKER_01: I think so too.
• 7:31
  SPEAKER_01: And I know Debro was on our show uh a handful of episodes ago and was talking about you know how he really liked him and how he viewed him as a very high prospect.
• 7:40
  SPEAKER_01: I believe he mentioned he had him over Jonathan Brooks, and there was a lot of excitement around Lloyd coming into the season just based on his opportunity with everything that's going on with Josh Jacobs right now.
• 7:51
  SPEAKER_01: But I mean, man, it's been brutal.
• 7:54
  SPEAKER_01: The only reason he's fantasy relevant these days is because of Chris Brooks being on the IR.
• 7:58
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 8:00
  SPEAKER_01: All right, Kelly.
• 8:01
  SPEAKER_01: Who are you gonna forgive?
• 8:04
  SPEAKER_04: Um, okay.
• 8:05
  SPEAKER_04: I know this is gonna be not, you know, very predictable here.
• 8:12
  SPEAKER_04: Um I'm going to forgive Mark Andrews.
• 8:17
  unknown: Okay.
• 8:17
  SPEAKER_04: Um probably need some sort of sound effect there.
• 8:21
  SPEAKER_03: Oh no, we need a screaming sound effect.
• 8:25
  SPEAKER_04: Um, I'm forgiving Mark Andrews another time, again and again.
• 8:30
  SPEAKER_04: Um, be still my heart.
• 8:32
  SPEAKER_04: But here's the thing.
• 8:34
  SPEAKER_04: I'm forgiving the mistakes, I'm tempering my expectations.
• 8:40
  SPEAKER_04: Just because I'm gonna, you know, hold on to him for a hot minute doesn't mean I'm gonna automatically start him.
• 8:48
  SPEAKER_04: It just means I'm not ready to drop him yet because his routes have actually increased um despite having some fumble issues last week.
• 8:59
  SPEAKER_04: I mean, he's still involved, he had six targets, that opportunity is there.
• 9:04
  SPEAKER_04: Um, but the scoring was definitely abysmal.
• 9:08
  SPEAKER_04: If you were in a standard PPR league and you have fumble scoring, you came out with about 4.8 points, and that's not gonna do it.
• 9:17
  SPEAKER_04: So he needs to earn his way back into my starting lineup and into my heart, but I'm just not ready to break up with him yet.
• 9:25
  SPEAKER_03: You're not ready to break up with who?
• 9:28
  SPEAKER_04: Mark.
• 9:28
  SPEAKER_01: I really like that one.
• 9:34
  SPEAKER_01: Like he's seventh in targets per game amongst tight ends.
• 9:38
  SPEAKER_01: I'm actually kind of surprised.
• 9:41
  SPEAKER_03: Ever since that, ever since that fatal drop that he had in that uh AFC championship game.
• 9:48
  SPEAKER_03: I don't know if he's been the same, man.
• 9:51
  SPEAKER_03: I mean who knows?
• 9:52
  SPEAKER_04: I mean, he's got a couple drops in three balls, and yeah, he has he's got a little bit of the yips, maybe.
• 9:59
  SPEAKER_04: I mean, uh week four was really great, actually.
• 10:03
  SPEAKER_04: Week four was a great week for him, not stupendous, but it was great.
• 10:08
  SPEAKER_04: 71% of the routes, and that was an increase.
• 10:12
  SPEAKER_04: So um going into week five, I was feeling good about it.
• 10:17
  SPEAKER_04: But here we are.
• 10:18
  SPEAKER_04: I'm forgiving him, but I'm not forgetting.
• 10:21
  SPEAKER_04: We're gonna reassess there, but I am forgetting another tight end, Aronde Gadson.
• 10:30
  SPEAKER_04: Gadson, I mean week four again looked really promising, but here's the difference.
• 10:38
  SPEAKER_04: His route participation actually fell in week four from 72 to 60.
• 10:46
  SPEAKER_04: We go into week five, not really thinking about that route participation, even though it's a pretty strong data point, and uh he had one target and he didn't catch it, so zero, a big fat zero, and that is I hate looking at that one game because I could say the same thing about Mark Andrews, it was close to zero, 4.8.
• 11:10
  SPEAKER_04: Shoot.
• 11:10
  SPEAKER_04: But how do you trust him in a lineup?
• 11:14
  SPEAKER_04: He had increased opportunities, David Njoku being injured, and yet his involvement just wasn't consistent.
• 11:22
  SPEAKER_04: So I'm gonna forget about him.
• 11:25
  SPEAKER_03: Well, you know, we talk to you guys about some players to definitely forgive, but one thing you should not forget is to like and subscribe what you are listening to right now, which is the fantasy football space podcast.

• 12:23
  SPEAKER_03: So before we get to the next segment, guys, I uh well actually let's get to the next segment, our news and notes in Melbourne.
• 12:30
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, we're diving right into news and notes.
• 12:38
  SPEAKER_00: NFL headlines.
• 12:44
  SPEAKER_01: And tip opened tip opened with this.
• 12:48
  SPEAKER_01: This is snap at the beginning of the show.
• 12:52
  SPEAKER_01: Texans traded Marvin Harrison Jr.
• 12:56
  SPEAKER_01: for second and sixth round picks.
• 12:58
  SPEAKER_01: He reunites with his quarterback while he played at Ohio State and CJ Stroud.
• 13:05
  SPEAKER_01: I know there's a lot of news and notes to get to, but Kelly, I gotta know how you're feeling about it.
• 13:11
  SPEAKER_01: It was probably time for a change for everybody, but that's an outsider opinion.
• 13:15
  SPEAKER_01: Would love to hear what Cardinal Nation is feeling about this trade.
• 13:19
  SPEAKER_04: It's definitely a mixed bag out there.
• 13:22
  SPEAKER_04: Uh, there were people who feel like he just didn't get a fair shake.
• 13:26
  SPEAKER_04: Jacoby Brissett isn't it.
• 13:29
  SPEAKER_04: Um, we needed to give him a shot with Carson Beck.
• 13:32
  SPEAKER_04: And then there's this whole other crowd that's it's a bust.
• 13:36
  SPEAKER_04: Get rid of him.
• 13:37
  SPEAKER_04: And I am somewhere in the middle.
• 13:40
  SPEAKER_04: I think that he definitely deserves a fresh start.
• 13:43
  SPEAKER_04: I don't think this offense is for him.
• 13:46
  SPEAKER_04: However, I read a good thing today.
• 13:48
  SPEAKER_04: Jeff Bell said something today about wouldn't it be a crazy timeline if we find out that Marvin Harrison Jr.
• 13:56
  SPEAKER_04: is the one who extended the playing field and made opportunities for everybody else.
• 14:02
  SPEAKER_04: But my counterpoint is sure, but that's a really expensive decoy.
• 14:07
  SPEAKER_04: So you might as well make the most of it.
• 14:10
  SPEAKER_04: Um, that's kind of where we're at here.
• 14:13
  SPEAKER_04: And and good for him.
• 14:14
  SPEAKER_04: I hope that he gets that fresh start.
• 14:17
  SPEAKER_04: He deserves it.
• 14:17
  SPEAKER_04: And I hope he's seeing a sports therapist.
• 14:19
  SPEAKER_04: I'm not making fun, I've said that like more than once.
• 14:24
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, yeah.
• 14:25
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, yeah, it's a lot of pressure.
• 14:27
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 14:28
  SPEAKER_01: It's I feel like it's very similar, not to turn this to a Vikings thing, but like it's very similar to like how JJ the fallout with JJ McCarthy was here.
• 14:37
  SPEAKER_01: Like, obviously, there's the group of people that are like, you gave up on him too early.
• 14:42
  SPEAKER_01: There's a group of people that are like, it was time for a mutual switch, you know, and then on top of that, we only got like a late day two pick, I think it was.
• 14:51
  SPEAKER_01: So totally get it.
• 14:52
  SPEAKER_01: But anyways, Marvin Harrison now with the Texans joins that offense with Nico Collins.
• 14:58
  SPEAKER_01: Uh Tips Boy, Jacoby Lane expected to turn to practice return to practice.
• 15:04
  SPEAKER_01: Uh Brees Hall still did not practice on Wednesday.
• 15:07
  SPEAKER_01: Continue to fire up Braylon Allen while he's out.
• 15:09
  SPEAKER_01: Uh Quinshawn Judkins was seen in a walking boot um on the ankle, the same ankle that he hurt last year.
• 15:16
  SPEAKER_01: Uh Raheem Sanders is on IR, so Jaleel McLaughlin is in line if Judkins might miss time.
• 15:23
  SPEAKER_01: He's still day-to-day, so it's still questionable.
• 15:26
  SPEAKER_01: Keep tabs on that.
• 15:27
  SPEAKER_01: Dylan Sampson um is also set to return, so the Browns' backfield could get a little muddier.
• 15:32
  SPEAKER_01: Uh, Trevion Henderson, this one's a weird one.
• 15:34
  SPEAKER_01: He suffered a high ankle sprain.
• 15:37
  SPEAKER_01: Reports came out that he was expected to miss multiple weeks, but he surprisingly practiced today.
• 15:43
  SPEAKER_01: So obviously, we'll see how the week plays out, but very contradicting uh reports here over the last few days.
• 15:49
  SPEAKER_01: We'll keep tabs on Trevion Henderson.
• 15:51
  SPEAKER_01: Dave Canales said Jalen Coker is set to return in week six.
• 15:55
  SPEAKER_01: Zach Charbonnet has a legit chance to debut in week seven.
• 16:01
  SPEAKER_01: Salamanian Wilson, if you still can.
• 16:04
  SPEAKER_01: Lamar, what was that?
• 16:07
  SPEAKER_03: Charbonnet.
• 16:09
  SPEAKER_01: He's probably like French or something.
• 16:11
  SPEAKER_04: Les Poisson, les poissons, uh Lamar Jackson, his ankle.
• 16:17
  SPEAKER_01: Uh, he's listed his day to day week six, sad is uncertain, but it sounds like he has a little chance to play.
• 16:24
  SPEAKER_01: Lamar.
• 16:25
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, AJ Brown, here's a big one.
• 16:27
  SPEAKER_01: Uh, returns to practice Wednesday after the high ankle sprain.
• 16:30
  SPEAKER_01: I know we were on here for uh one of our episodes, and it was uh week one, it was that game.
• 16:36
  SPEAKER_01: And I remember Tip saying, No, AJ Brown is down.
• 16:40
  SPEAKER_01: Oh man.
• 16:41
  SPEAKER_01: Well, anyways, if you've been able to survive this long without AJ Brown, he is the light is at the end of the tunnel.
• 16:47
  SPEAKER_01: Um, he did practice today, so keep tabs on that.
• 16:50
  SPEAKER_01: Caleb Williams uh returned to practice after following his gruesome hamstring injury.
• 16:57
  SPEAKER_01: Rasheed Rice, um, Miss Wednesday's practice.
• 17:01
  SPEAKER_01: He uh he he he got hurt against Tipps Raiders uh with a hamstring injury.
• 17:05
  SPEAKER_01: They went into their bye week and he's still not practicing.
• 17:09
  SPEAKER_01: Ashton Genty dealing with his ankle foot injury, but he's playing through it.
• 17:18
  SPEAKER_01: Ray, which by the way, we gotta talk about your Raiders.
• 17:21
  SPEAKER_01: We always do.
• 17:22
  SPEAKER_01: Uh I'll I'll finish up these last, I'll finish up these last two and see how you see how you're feeling.
• 17:26
  SPEAKER_01: Uh Baker Mayfield still dealing with uh injured throwing thumb, has yet to resume throwing.
• 17:31
  SPEAKER_01: TJ Hawkinson is in concussion protocol.
• 17:34
  SPEAKER_01: Uh Debo Samuel, another 49er injury, significant hamstring, expected to miss extended time.
• 17:41
  SPEAKER_01: And lastly, David Montgomery is dealing with a groin injury, considered weak to weak.
• 17:46
  SPEAKER_01: Woody Marks will come on up.
• 17:49
  SPEAKER_01: And then lastly, uh, we did want to inform the audience.
• 17:52
  SPEAKER_01: Obviously, we have a handful of bye weeks this week.
• 17:54
  SPEAKER_01: Uh, we have Cincinnati, uh, Detroit, Miami, and Minnesota, two teams with super high potent offenses that we also love to start players against in Detroit.
• 18:05
  SPEAKER_01: Um, and then obviously Miami and my beloved Vikings 5-0 going into the bye week.
• 18:12
  SPEAKER_01: But tip, let's get a Raider check and then let's go to Millboard.
• 18:17
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, you know, it's just real quick.
• 18:19
  SPEAKER_03: It it um we knew this was gonna be a tougher, tougher, you know, week four and five up for us.
• 18:28
  SPEAKER_03: Going to Foxboro, we did it last year in week one, but week one is different than week five.
• 18:33
  SPEAKER_03: And and you got a team that's desperate, like the Patriots were, um, and has been playing really well, especially on the offensive side.
• 18:40
  SPEAKER_03: I knew we were in trouble.
• 18:41
  SPEAKER_03: I I could see what Taekwond Thornton was doing to us.
• 18:44
  SPEAKER_03: I even called on the show uh with King on Sunday.
• 18:47
  SPEAKER_03: I was like, I wouldn't be surprised if Kyle Williams got a touchdown this week because they are giving up the long the deep shot, they're giving up, they're giving up the long ball.
• 18:56
  SPEAKER_03: So that's been a problem for us, and I think it'll continue to be a problem for us.
• 18:59
  SPEAKER_03: And of course, you know, we got to get a wide receiver, but that's neither here nor there.
• 19:05
  SPEAKER_01: All right, what are you three and two now?
• 19:08
  SPEAKER_01: That's dude, that schedule is just it's kind of Buffalo this week.
• 19:13
  SPEAKER_01: We're gonna lose yeah.
• 19:14
  SPEAKER_01: I was gonna say it doesn't get any and and and Mendoza popped his cherry, he got a little tick.
• 19:20
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, he popped his cherry a little bit, but I I still think that was just more of a blowout situation um than it was like they were trying to send a message.
• 19:31
  SPEAKER_01: No, it was 1000% uh just wanting to you know get him up and move in, get him a couple snaps and see how it goes.
• 19:40
  SPEAKER_01: Uh, you got the Bills this week, Rams, and then the Jets.
• 19:44
  SPEAKER_01: So if you can come out with one of the two uh over these next two weeks and then go into New York, try to get a dub.
• 19:51
  SPEAKER_01: Um, that sounds good to me.
• 19:53
  SPEAKER_01: But anyways, we have a lot of questions uh that were asked on Twitter.
• 19:58
  SPEAKER_01: Um, so we're gonna do a quick mailbag section.
• 20:01
  SPEAKER_01: Let's get into it.
• 20:02
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, let's jump right into mailbag.
• 20:04
  SPEAKER_04: I also starred one, so maybe we can get in that too.
• 20:07
  SPEAKER_03: Yes, it's mailbag time.
• 20:13
  SPEAKER_04: It's mailbag time.
• 20:15
  SPEAKER_04: I'm gonna put on my best radio voice for mailbag time, guys.
• 20:20
  SPEAKER_00: Hey, old radio people.
• 20:21
  SPEAKER_04: Okay, here we go from Bulldog Boy, Damien Pierce or Kendra Miller for RB2 this week.
• 20:30
  SPEAKER_04: And I don't even know how to say that.
• 20:32
  SPEAKER_04: Jeremy Bernard.
• 20:34
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you got it.
• 20:34
  SPEAKER_01: Jeremy.
• 20:35
  SPEAKER_04: Jeremy Bernard or Casey Concepcion, if he plays.
• 20:41
  SPEAKER_04: In the second flex spot.
• 20:42
  SPEAKER_04: Half PPR.
• 20:43
  SPEAKER_04: Good thing you can read this on the show sheet.
• 20:47
  SPEAKER_03: Uh real quick.
• 20:48
  SPEAKER_03: Where's uh yeah, for me, it's gonna be quick.
• 20:52
  SPEAKER_03: I I Damien Pierce, I I can't trust Kendry Miller.
• 20:56
  SPEAKER_03: Um, I I I the only thing is I really think Saquon's gonna play.
• 21:00
  SPEAKER_03: So, but if I had to choose between those two, I'm gonna even go with Damian Pierce because at least with him, if Saquon does play, they may kind of have him on a little pitch count just to double check with you know with the being a hamstring.
• 21:12
  SPEAKER_03: Uh, the other one, I'm going Jeremy Bernard.
• 21:15
  SPEAKER_03: Uh, what we've seen last week, and now we're gonna continue to see with Michael Pittman out.
• 21:20
  SPEAKER_03: I think there's this is this is and Roman Wilson out.
• 21:23
  SPEAKER_03: Uh, this this is just wheels up for him.
• 21:25
  SPEAKER_03: I got him in a Scott Fishbowl, and I've been holding on to him just in the chance that he gets some more playing time, which he is.
• 21:31
  SPEAKER_03: And this kid can put up points.
• 21:34
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I'm with Tip on this one.
• 21:36
  SPEAKER_01: It's uh it's pretty simple.
• 21:37
  SPEAKER_01: If Saquon's out, uh go with Pierce.
• 21:40
  SPEAKER_01: Uh, he's got Carolina's defense, which you know can't stop a nosebleed on the ground.
• 21:45
  SPEAKER_01: Um, and Jeremy, um, he saw a 92% snap share last week and it turned into nine targets.
• 21:53
  SPEAKER_01: I'm gonna continue to ride that.
• 21:55
  SPEAKER_01: Um, I know it's a tough match, tough ish matchup against the Bucks, but I like.
• 22:00
  SPEAKER_01: Him more than uh Concepcion's chances.
• 22:02
  SPEAKER_01: I know Concepcion's got Baltimore.
• 22:05
  SPEAKER_01: Um, I'm gonna go with Jeremy.
• 22:07
  SPEAKER_04: Perfect.
• 22:08
  SPEAKER_04: All right, let's move on.
• 22:10
  SPEAKER_04: Bangles Nerd asks, I'm thinking of adding either Jeremy Bernard.
• 22:15
  SPEAKER_04: Hello, Tony Pollard, or Marshawn Lloyd for Flex, depending on if DJ Moore plays this week.
• 22:22
  SPEAKER_04: If he doesn't, who should I pivot to?
• 22:25
  SPEAKER_04: Or maybe you have another name in mind that I didn't mention.
• 22:28
  SPEAKER_04: And there's a part two, but let's get to that one first.
• 22:33
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I'll go first.
• 22:35
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, go ahead.
• 22:35
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, go ahead.
• 22:36
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, you growing Jeremy on this one, huh?
• 22:39
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I'm going Jeremy over Tony Pollard and Marshawn Lloyd.
• 22:42
  SPEAKER_03: Absolutely.
• 22:43
  SPEAKER_03: Now, if DJ Moore plays, you're playing with DJ Moore.
• 22:45
  SPEAKER_03: Right.
• 22:46
  SPEAKER_03: Uh, but but if if DJ Moore doesn't play, I like I like Jeremy Bernard over all of those.
• 22:52
  SPEAKER_03: Um, and then he said he did ask for a name to it is a full TPR, by the way, for what it's worth.
• 22:58
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I like I like Bernard.
• 23:00
  SPEAKER_01: That would obviously that would obviously uh change it over to Jeremy.
• 23:05
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I'm gonna go with so I'm gonna go with Tony Pollard, but it's because of the matchup.
• 23:10
  SPEAKER_01: He's got the Colts.
• 23:11
  SPEAKER_01: Uh the Colts are you know bottom 10 in uh points allowed to opposing running backs.
• 23:17
  SPEAKER_01: I'm gonna take the guaranteed 15 to 20 carries here.
• 23:20
  SPEAKER_01: I think it's a game where the Titans can stick around.
• 23:23
  SPEAKER_01: Uh, so I feel that he's going to get you that guaranteed volume.
• 23:27
  SPEAKER_01: Jeremy was a great ad on the waiver wire this week.
• 23:30
  SPEAKER_01: If you had to start him in deeper leagues, I'm still okay with it.
• 23:33
  SPEAKER_01: But uh, I'm gonna go with Pollard in this one.
• 23:36
  SPEAKER_04: Okay, part two.
• 23:39
  SPEAKER_04: Second question: should I keep Herbert and stay patient or pivot to uh Jameis Winston?
• 23:48
  SPEAKER_03: This is fantasy, you gotta get points.
• 23:50
  SPEAKER_03: Go, J-Mo.
• 23:51
  SPEAKER_03: Like Jamie, Jameis, you gotta do it.
• 23:54
  SPEAKER_03: Um, it seems it sucks because you probably got him off the waiver while you drafted uh Justin Herbert, but you cannot trust this offense right now.
• 24:03
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I mean, I'm I'm with Tip on this one.
• 24:06
  SPEAKER_01: Uh, you gotta go with Winston.
• 24:08
  SPEAKER_01: The matchup is super solid.
• 24:11
  SPEAKER_01: Um, and Herbert's matchup is not super solid, and he hasn't been playing very well.
• 24:16
  SPEAKER_01: So uh go with big game, James.
• 24:18
  SPEAKER_04: It's a super flex league.
• 24:20
  SPEAKER_04: Does that change your mind?
• 24:21
  SPEAKER_04: In my mind, I'm looking at the waivers to see if there's another QP.
• 24:28
  SPEAKER_04: Uh oh, we got more info.
• 24:30
  SPEAKER_04: He already has he has cousins and Dak.
• 24:33
  SPEAKER_04: Shoot.
• 24:33
  SPEAKER_03: I mean, well, yeah, you're playing Dak for sure.
• 24:37
  SPEAKER_03: I would do Dak and Winston, to be honest with you.
• 24:39
  SPEAKER_03: I think it uh I wouldn't be mad if you did cousins, but I mean, going against New Orleans, he you know, he already has ties to New Orleans as well.
• 24:46
  SPEAKER_03: He loves that city.
• 24:47
  SPEAKER_03: Uh, he's gonna try to, you know, put put it to him this week.
• 24:50
  SPEAKER_03: I think I think you still go Jameis.
• 24:52
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, this one's yeah, it's Dak and Jameis for sure.
• 24:56
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, okay.
• 24:58
  SPEAKER_04: Um, Sean asks Kinner or Halani?
• 25:05
  SPEAKER_04: PPR in a tough spot to say the least.
• 25:10
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, Halani.
• 25:12
  SPEAKER_01: I'll go with Corey.
• 25:13
  SPEAKER_01: I'm gonna go with Corey on this one.
• 25:15
  SPEAKER_01: He was super efficient on a per touch basis last week.
• 25:18
  SPEAKER_01: Uh, he got six carries for 52, which is an 8.67 yard per carry.
• 25:23
  SPEAKER_01: Um, this is continual.
• 25:24
  SPEAKER_01: Oh well, they played tomorrow night.
• 25:26
  SPEAKER_01: Helani does.
• 25:27
  SPEAKER_01: I'm just not uh I can't get behind starting Kalani.
• 25:32
  SPEAKER_01: So I'm gonna go with Corey and potentially even look on the waiver wire for somebody else.
• 25:37
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I'm really not Kalani tomorrow night.
• 25:40
  SPEAKER_03: I'm looking on the I'm looking on the waiver wires right now.
• 25:43
  SPEAKER_03: You got guys like Caleb Johnson.
• 25:46
  SPEAKER_03: I think he's gonna be good eventually, but um Tajay Spears is floating around there in one of my he's 31% owned.
• 25:53
  SPEAKER_03: Maybe maybe he's floating there.
• 25:55
  SPEAKER_03: He got nine receptions last week, so um that could be a name to look at as well, but there's not much out there, man.
• 26:02
  SPEAKER_03: You you're you're in bad shape, brother.
• 26:04
  SPEAKER_01: I would check out uh Damian Pierce for sure.
• 26:07
  SPEAKER_01: Uh we posted on the other night, um a handful of waiver wire looks.
• 26:14
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, even Kamani Vidal, uh, he's getting just as much snap share as Hampton and Keaton Mitchell.
• 26:21
  SPEAKER_01: Uh Jaleel McLaughlin, if Judkins is ruled out, I would probably start all those guys over.
• 26:27
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, surprisingly, yeah, surprisingly, Vidal's um well in the in this league I'm looking at his 21% roster.
• 26:35
  SPEAKER_03: That that that that should be higher than that.
• 26:36
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, he's he's good.
• 26:38
  SPEAKER_03: He he's good too.
• 26:39
  SPEAKER_03: Um, but yeah, either way, man, that's that's rough.
• 26:42
  SPEAKER_04: All right, next question.
• 26:44
  SPEAKER_04: M asks, do you think Tucker is a meaningful rest of season upgrade over Bernard rather than just a better week six start?
• 26:54
  SPEAKER_03: I I'm still going Bernard here.
• 26:57
  SPEAKER_03: I it's just really been hard to trust as far as a pass catcher other than Brock Bowers.
• 27:03
  SPEAKER_03: And you know, I know they said a lot of good things about Tucker uh over the season or in the offseason, excuse me.
• 27:09
  SPEAKER_03: Uh I just I really believe that with Roman Wilson not available, DK Metcalf, he'll get his catches, of course.
• 27:16
  SPEAKER_03: You're not worried about that.
• 27:17
  SPEAKER_03: I think Jalen Warren will talk more about what I think he's gonna do, but I think he's not gonna be um as relevant as he was last week.
• 27:26
  SPEAKER_03: Uh, I think this is a big Bernard week.
• 27:28
  SPEAKER_03: I really do.
• 27:29
  SPEAKER_03: Um, so I would I would go with him um over Tucker this week and maybe for the foreseeable future.
• 27:36
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I would tip uh Jermy.
• 27:39
  SPEAKER_01: A lot of Jeremy questions.
• 27:40
  SPEAKER_04: A lot of Jeremy questions.
• 27:42
  SPEAKER_04: So waivers hot.
• 27:46
  SPEAKER_04: Okay, one scoop asks, would you rather have Rogers or Stroud PPI?
• 27:51
  SPEAKER_01: Ooh, this is a good one, Nico.
• 27:52
  SPEAKER_01: You go first.
• 27:53
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I'm gonna go with Stroud for this week and rest of the season.
• 27:56
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, the signing of Marvin Harrison and their terrible run game, the Texans, I guess, are gonna go for more of an aerial attack type of offense.
• 28:05
  SPEAKER_01: Stroud also has a good matchup this week.
• 28:07
  SPEAKER_01: Uh, the Buccaneers are kind of tough um against opposing quarterbacks, so I'm gonna go with Stroud.
• 28:13
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I'm I'm looking at at what Aaron Rodgers has been doing.
• 28:17
  SPEAKER_03: Um, last three games, three touchdowns.
• 28:19
  SPEAKER_03: It's like like you're getting that.
• 28:21
  SPEAKER_03: Um against Tampa Bay, I think he can easily do that against New Orleans at New Orleans and could get that as well.
• 28:27
  SPEAKER_03: Cleveland might be a little bit of a tougher matchup.
• 28:29
  SPEAKER_03: Um, I'm still gonna go with the old man on this one, man.
• 28:32
  SPEAKER_03: I I just I've seen enough from from from CJ Stroud and to know that, yeah, he he's not gonna really make a lot of mistakes, but man, he's not gonna get me three touchdowns every week, uh, like Aaron Rodgers could potentially do.
• 28:45
  SPEAKER_03: So that's what I that that's that's what I'm looking at.
• 28:47
  SPEAKER_03: Um, I don't know what he's drinking, smoking, doing that ayahuasca.
• 28:52
  SPEAKER_03: I don't know what he's doing, but he is on one right now.
• 28:56
  SPEAKER_04: Oh goodness.
• 28:57
  SPEAKER_04: Okay, next one from Zach Cotter.
• 29:01
  SPEAKER_04: Would you Javante?
• 29:04
  SPEAKER_04: Well, would you Javante and Waddle?
• 29:07
  SPEAKER_04: I'm assuming trade.
• 29:08
  SPEAKER_04: Javante and Waddle for DJ Moore and Chase Brown.
• 29:13
  SPEAKER_04: Would you trade Javante and Waddle for DJ Moore and Chase Brown?
• 29:17
  SPEAKER_04: I'm leading the Chase Brown and DJ Moore side, albeit a very fair trade.
• 29:24
  SPEAKER_03: Same.
• 29:27
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, yeah.
• 29:27
  SPEAKER_03: I'm going the same.
• 29:29
  SPEAKER_03: Same.
• 29:29
  SPEAKER_03: I would do it.
• 29:30
  SPEAKER_04: Agreed.
• 29:30
  SPEAKER_04: And I'm not weighing in on all these, but I think that's pretty easy.
• 29:35
  SPEAKER_04: Okay, Ja Rule asks, bro, is Devontae Adams for Brees too much, bro.
• 29:43
  SPEAKER_04: I got Parker, Watson, Devonta Smith, Cook RB1, and Judkins RB2.
• 29:50
  SPEAKER_04: So is Devontae Adams for Brees too much?
• 29:56
  SPEAKER_01: I would do the trade for Brees.
• 29:58
  SPEAKER_01: I uh I'm a big Brees fan.
• 30:01
  SPEAKER_01: Um, I think you could you you you could level up at your RB2 role.
• 30:05
  SPEAKER_01: You know, you have Parker, Watson, Devontae Smith, all guys that I really like.
• 30:11
  SPEAKER_01: Um, and I think it's a good opportunity to sell high on Devontae Adams after a two touchdown performance in prime time.
• 30:17
  SPEAKER_01: In the three games that Puka's played, Devontae Adams has barely over 100 yards and those two touchdowns from Monday night.
• 30:25
  SPEAKER_01: But that's a three-game sample size.
• 30:28
  SPEAKER_03: But but that but see, Miko, that's what you know you're getting from him.
• 30:31
  SPEAKER_03: You're not gonna get that 195-yard game that you got early in the season, especially not with Puka.
• 30:36
  SPEAKER_03: But you know that you're gonna get those red zone looks and you're gonna get those red.
• 30:40
  SPEAKER_03: He's got seven red zone targets on the season, which isn't a lot, but I've noticed each week it's going up.
• 30:45
  SPEAKER_03: So last week here, or last week he had three, the week before that he had two, and so forth.
• 30:50
  SPEAKER_03: So they are going up in red zone touches, and you know they're always gonna be close to the red zone.
• 30:54
  SPEAKER_03: So it's kind of like do you take that gamble, right?
• 30:57
  SPEAKER_03: On on really the touchdown upside.
• 30:59
  SPEAKER_03: That's what you're looking for here.
• 31:01
  SPEAKER_03: Um, I think you do it because Brees Hall is still week to week, and then the other thing too, you got to worry about is Braylon Allen.
• 31:07
  SPEAKER_03: Braylon Allen is showing he can carry the the rock, he could carry the load.
• 31:12
  SPEAKER_03: And when they bring Brees Hall back, is it gonna be uh uh more of a timeshare?
• 31:17
  SPEAKER_03: That's my concern with this one.
• 31:18
  SPEAKER_03: So I say stay hold and uh go with Devontae Adams.
• 31:23
  SPEAKER_04: Okay, DSM asks Should I trade Bryce Young, Ollie Gordon, and Jeremiah Love for Chase Brown and Luther Burden?
• 31:33
  SPEAKER_04: Yes, yeah.
• 31:35
  SPEAKER_03: I don't know who his quarterbacks are, but yeah, I agree with you, Nico, on this one.
• 31:39
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
• 31:39
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, Ollie Gordon's been great, like great pickup, great start the last few weeks.
• 31:45
  SPEAKER_01: But let's not forget that Devon A.
• 31:47
  SPEAKER_01: Chain was struggling in that offense.
• 31:49
  SPEAKER_01: He's had two really good weeks, and you're getting leveling up with Chase Brown, and you're kind of buying low on Luther Burden, who was everyone's sweet, sweet prince this year in drafts, and he hasn't had the time to gel with Caleb Williams with the injuries.
• 32:02
  SPEAKER_01: So, with Caleb Williams potentially back this week, um, I think Luther Burden has a lot of upside.
• 32:08
  SPEAKER_01: I would take that trade, take Chase Brown and Luther Burden.
• 32:12
  SPEAKER_04: I just wish we knew more about this this situation here, but it is what it is.
• 32:20
  SPEAKER_04: Mike Sochia, Sochia, Sochia, Socha?
• 32:24
  SPEAKER_03: Mike Socha, the he's a former angels manager.
• 32:27
  SPEAKER_04: What the heck?
• 32:29
  SPEAKER_04: Mike Socha.
• 32:30
  SPEAKER_04: I can't, you know, phonetically read.
• 32:34
  SPEAKER_04: If I was offered Brees Hall and Downs for Chase Brown thoughts.
• 32:48
  SPEAKER_01: Because, you know, yes, you're leveling down a little bit to Brees Hall from Chase Brown, but you're also getting what I believe to be a solid wide receiver three.
• 32:57
  SPEAKER_01: So if you're in a format where it's three wide receivers, it's double flex or something like that, depth becomes significantly more important.
• 33:07
  SPEAKER_01: So for that reason, I'd take it.
• 33:08
  SPEAKER_01: Now, if it's like an eight or ten man league where like you want to prioritize perhaps leveling up, you know, then I would probably take the brown side.
• 33:17
  SPEAKER_01: So this one's tough without additional context.
• 33:19
  SPEAKER_01: But if I had to say I would take Brees Hall and Downs just because you're getting the extra asset that you could probably plug into your lineup for one singular player, that yes, it's a level up, but I don't view it as that much of a level up.
• 33:34
  SPEAKER_03: Well how that that injury has me nervous.
• 33:36
  SPEAKER_03: That's just the only thing about this.
• 33:38
  SPEAKER_03: Yes, you're giving up two players.
• 33:41
  SPEAKER_03: What I would do if I was this, if I was Mike Sosha, I would uh I would I would try to why do I have to get why do I have to um why why does it have to be two for one?
• 33:54
  SPEAKER_03: I think Chase Brown from Brees Hall would be fair, or maybe like a a draft pick or something.
• 33:58
  SPEAKER_03: I d I just don't the the the downs and hall is like that's that's a little too much, I think, in this case.
• 34:06
  SPEAKER_01: Um well he was offered Brees Hall and Downs, and he's asking if he should accept it.
• 34:11
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, oh I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
• 34:13
  SPEAKER_03: I that I was on me.
• 34:14
  SPEAKER_03: So then yes, I would I I still wouldn't do it because I don't like the Brees Hall being injured, but I do like the fact he's getting two players.
• 34:21
  SPEAKER_03: I just would want somebody else.
• 34:22
  SPEAKER_03: If you can probably up it to um man, I I I would uh I guess let me ask Terry McLaurin.
• 34:32
  SPEAKER_03: I would take a shot on a Terry McLaurin and Brees Hall for that.
• 34:34
  SPEAKER_03: I would I would take a shot.
• 34:36
  SPEAKER_03: I would take a shot on that, not on Josh Downs.
• 34:39
  SPEAKER_01: Let me ask you a question.
• 34:40
  SPEAKER_01: Are you somebody that likes to buy low on players when they're injured?
• 34:46
  SPEAKER_03: No, no, because those injuries, it depends on what type of injury, too.
• 34:50
  SPEAKER_03: If it's one of those, if it if it's one of those high ankle sprains, if it's one of those soft tissue injuries, things that linger and that can just just continue to plague the player for the rest of the season.
• 35:02
  SPEAKER_03: No.
• 35:03
  SPEAKER_03: Now, if it's like a little you know, shoulder injury or something like that, like okay, I'm I'm cool with that.
• 35:08
  SPEAKER_03: Like, you know, I know they can get back and deal with that, even though DJ Moore has been completely banged up.
• 35:12
  SPEAKER_03: But no, I I am not the type to try to go low just because that person's injured.
• 35:18
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, no, I I don't I I don't trade like that.
• 35:22
  SPEAKER_03: Well, maybe we'll save that for another day, but I definitely now if now if it if if it's dynasty, that's different, but not in redress.
• 35:30
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 35:30
  SPEAKER_01: We'll we'll talk about that some other time.
• 35:32
  SPEAKER_04: Well, Mike Sosha, you know what?
• 35:34
  SPEAKER_04: I'm not a big baseball fan.
• 35:37
  SPEAKER_04: So do me a favor, follow me at Kellyan Phoenix, and we'll be BFFs, and I'll never pronounce your name wrong again.
• 35:45
  SPEAKER_04: Okay, here's another one I can mess up.
• 35:48
  SPEAKER_04: Um Regui THFC, Regui T H F C.
• 35:54
  SPEAKER_04: You know who you are.
• 35:56
  SPEAKER_04: Um would you trade away Chase Brown for AJB and Kamara?
• 36:05
  SPEAKER_03: Chase Brown for AJ Brown.
• 36:07
  SPEAKER_03: No, and the Kamara I don't like.
• 36:10
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, you're basically trading Chase Brown for AJ Brown.
• 36:15
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, ETF will be back, you would think.
• 36:18
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, four-week IR stint.
• 36:20
  SPEAKER_01: We're two weeks in.
• 36:22
  SPEAKER_01: Uh, and Kamara is not even getting standalone value.
• 36:25
  SPEAKER_01: He's maybe a matchup dependent, low-end RB2 for like a week or two.
• 36:31
  SPEAKER_01: And AJ Brown is yes, he practiced today, but I don't I don't think he's gonna play this week.
• 36:37
  SPEAKER_01: I think they're probably gonna give him one more week off.
• 36:39
  SPEAKER_01: Personal no facts, like I don't have any concrete reports from it, it's just my own opinion.
• 36:45
  SPEAKER_01: So I just view this as Chase Brown for AJ Brown, and I would rather have the running back, and I would rather have Chase Brown.
• 36:54
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, me too.
• 36:55
  SPEAKER_03: And it's the the again, the injury aspect of this one for AJ Brown, it's a high ankle spring.
• 37:01
  SPEAKER_03: Those things linger, even though he's practicing, he's coming back.
• 37:04
  SPEAKER_03: It could just be a drop of a hat again, like it happened before.
• 37:08
  SPEAKER_03: Uh Chase Brown.
• 37:09
  SPEAKER_03: I know a lot of people are nervous with the Samaje P.
• 37:11
  SPEAKER_03: Ryan usage, but that happens, that happens every year.
• 37:14
  SPEAKER_03: Samaje P.
• 37:15
  SPEAKER_03: Ryan always finds a way to get a little bit of usage at the inopportune time.
• 37:20
  SPEAKER_03: It just it's gonna happen with Chase Brown.
• 37:22
  SPEAKER_03: You're gonna have to just deal with that.
• 37:24
  SPEAKER_03: But Chase Brown is still really good, and he's on a great offense.
• 37:28
  SPEAKER_04: We have one more um that came through the chat.
• 37:31
  SPEAKER_04: I starred um Beer Katz is asking uh Genty.
• 37:36
  SPEAKER_04: I'll put it up here.
• 37:37
  SPEAKER_04: Genty for Coker and Saquon.
• 37:42
  SPEAKER_02: Tip, it's your raider.
• 37:45
  SPEAKER_02: I'll let you go first.
• 37:47
  SPEAKER_03: You know, Genty is dealing with a foot and an ankle injury.
• 37:50
  SPEAKER_03: Um, I know that for a fact, and that's the thing that's plaguing him right now.
• 37:54
  SPEAKER_03: That's why we saw a lot of Dylan Loweby last week, and that's why you'll see some Mike Washington Jr.
• 37:59
  SPEAKER_03: I think that this is gonna be something that um lingers for the rest of the season.
• 38:04
  SPEAKER_03: Um, you know, he's gonna have games here because he's asking Genty, but I think that yeah, you go ahead and do this one because Saquon Barkley's coming back on the minute.
• 38:12
  SPEAKER_03: It's a soft tissue injury, but Saquon Barkley's coming back, and they're gonna need him.
• 38:17
  SPEAKER_03: They're gonna need him.
• 38:18
  SPEAKER_03: That's the thing.
• 38:19
  SPEAKER_03: If they want to get this season back, they're going to need Saquon Barkley.
• 38:22
  SPEAKER_03: That's probably why he's coming back this week, uh, or trying to come back this week.
• 38:27
  SPEAKER_03: So yeah, I'm gonna do that.
• 38:29
  SPEAKER_03: I'm gonna go with Saquon and who else does he get in that to?
• 38:32
  SPEAKER_03: Coker.
• 38:34
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I'm with that.
• 38:36
  SPEAKER_01: This trade to me is very similar to the Chase Brown and Josh Downs for Brees Hall.
• 38:42
  SPEAKER_01: It's like, why would you not just take the second player when the two running backs are, I would say, in the same situation and a same tier, most importantly, a same tier.
• 38:53
  SPEAKER_01: Uh, both kind of injured, week to week, could be back any week, kind of thing.
• 38:57
  SPEAKER_01: Um, well, genty's been playing, but you know what I mean.
• 39:01
  SPEAKER_04: Uh unless it's dynasty, correct.
• 39:04
  SPEAKER_01: Of course.
• 39:05
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, then you're hammering Genty.
• 39:07
  SPEAKER_01: Like you are taking every Genty share possible.
• 39:10
  SPEAKER_01: So it's a good question, though.
• 39:12
  SPEAKER_01: Um, but I would go ahead and take the second player.
• 39:14
  SPEAKER_01: I really like Jalen Coker.
• 39:16
  SPEAKER_01: Uh, let's not forget how he did the first two weeks of the season and then got hurt during the game in week three.
• 39:22
  SPEAKER_01: And then the last time we saw the Panthers was on prime time where Tet McMillan had a legacy career game.
• 39:30
  SPEAKER_01: But let's not forget about those first two weeks.
• 39:33
  SPEAKER_01: It was very evenly split between those two.
• 39:36
  SPEAKER_01: I like Coker as a wide receiver three.
• 39:39
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, no, I love it.
• 39:41
  SPEAKER_04: If you guys have any more questions, feel free to drop them into the comments.
• 39:45
  SPEAKER_04: I'll make a little star next to them and find a spot to shut these guys up and answer your questions.
• 39:51
  SPEAKER_04: So we're gonna go ahead and move into some starts and sits.
• 40:05
  SPEAKER_03: Of the week.
• 40:09
  SPEAKER_04: Looks like we're gonna start off with Miko, right?
• 40:12
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, we are.
• 40:13
  SPEAKER_03: We are gonna talk about some starts and sits.
• 40:15
  SPEAKER_03: But wait, real quick, guys.
• 40:16
  SPEAKER_03: Did you like?
• 40:17
  SPEAKER_03: Did you subscribe?
• 40:18
  SPEAKER_03: Did you do it?
• 40:19
  SPEAKER_03: If you haven't done it yet, don't make me come through this camera.
• 40:22
  SPEAKER_03: I'll do it.
• 40:23
  SPEAKER_03: I will, I promise you, I'll do it.
• 40:24
  SPEAKER_03: You will hear this voice for the rest of your life.
• 40:26
  SPEAKER_03: So go ahead and do it right now.
• 40:28
  SPEAKER_03: All right, peace.
• 40:29
  SPEAKER_03: Go ahead, Miko.
• 40:30
  SPEAKER_02: Are you gonna do your Arnold Schwarzenegger?
• 40:33
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, do it now.
• 40:34
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, too close to the champa, do it now.
• 40:39
  SPEAKER_01: Uh no, that's great.
• 40:40
  SPEAKER_01: We appreciate all the support, everybody.
• 40:42
  SPEAKER_01: Uh, you are the ones that keep us going um and wanting to continue to put out good content for y'all.
• 40:48
  SPEAKER_01: Um, going into starts of the week.
• 40:51
  SPEAKER_01: So, my start of the week, and before I get into it, like what a wild game in Washington last week, man.
• 40:58
  SPEAKER_01: Like Jalen Daniel, like, we didn't talk about it, but like Jalen Daniels, what are you doing?
• 41:05
  SPEAKER_01: And then on top of that, Scataboo, who is my start of the week, fumbles in overtime.
• 41:11
  SPEAKER_01: Now, I know it was bad, but the commanders, they're a pretty sharp defense.
• 41:18
  SPEAKER_01: Um, and he still averaged 4.54 yards per carry for a reason I do not understand.
• 41:23
  SPEAKER_01: The Giants only gave Scataboo 13 carries last week, and I know that fumble nearly cost them the game, it got them the tie, but I 100% still view Scattaboo as the team's workhorse.
• 41:35
  SPEAKER_01: So Najee had five carries, 1.8 yards per carry.
• 41:38
  SPEAKER_01: Tyrone Tracy had three carries for six yards.
• 41:41
  SPEAKER_01: Singletary was a healthy scratch.
• 41:44
  SPEAKER_01: The way you beat the commanders is through the air, which is why we steamed up Isaiah Likely last week, which is why we steamed up Malik Neighbors last week.
• 41:54
  SPEAKER_01: The Saints, who he has in week six, six, have allowed the most fantasy points per game to the running back position.
• 42:02
  SPEAKER_01: Scat is still averaging 19 touches a game through the ground and air combined.
• 42:06
  SPEAKER_01: I'm firing him up with confidence in week six, week six as my start of the week.
• 42:12
  SPEAKER_01: Cam Scattaboo.
• 42:17
  SPEAKER_03: I don't say I don't like it.
• 42:19
  SPEAKER_03: Um it it's it's a bold one, but I like it.
• 42:23
  SPEAKER_03: I like I gotta I gotta give it to you on it.
• 42:25
  SPEAKER_01: If Natter was here, he would tell us that they need to be fringy under like you know what I mean.
• 42:33
  SPEAKER_01: Like it's like uh, hey, you know, we're not putting up uh geez, I don't know.
• 42:40
  SPEAKER_01: Someone's coming to mind, please.
• 42:42
  SPEAKER_01: Uh well, uh for some reason no one comes to mind, even though there's tons of stars, but like Saquon Barkley, like if he plays, like stuff like that.
• 42:49
  SPEAKER_01: So wanted to give a fringy guy.
• 42:52
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, okay, okay.
• 42:54
  SPEAKER_03: Um so so for me, uh it's it's all predicated on if this guy plays, and I think he is.
• 43:00
  SPEAKER_03: I know that he did not practice today, and it's Saquon Barkley.
• 43:04
  SPEAKER_03: I I don't think he necessarily needs to practice, though.
• 43:06
  SPEAKER_03: They need to save him for this game.
• 43:09
  SPEAKER_03: Of course, he needs to get some reps in, but I think that Saquon Barkley, if he has an opportunity to play, he goes against the Carolina Panthers.
• 43:17
  SPEAKER_03: He has averaged six point yard, six point two yards per carry the last time he faced them.
• 43:23
  SPEAKER_03: And and through four games, the Panthers have surrendered 26 and a half fantasy points to running backs.
• 43:30
  SPEAKER_03: So that in and of itself tells me that if Saquon Barkley, who has played in five games and has zero or who has zero touchdowns and in the in this season, which is crazy to think about, uh look, if he if he gets the chance, the opportunity to play against the the Panthers, I think that this could be a big Saquon Barkley game.
• 43:52
  SPEAKER_03: I really hope that he plays.
• 43:54
  SPEAKER_03: So if he plays, he's gonna be my start of the week.
• 43:56
  SPEAKER_03: If he doesn't play, I will have a backup start of the week because.
• 44:00
  SPEAKER_03: I'm really thinking he's going to, and I will post that on socials uh on our account for everyone later today, later this week.
• 44:07
  SPEAKER_03: Well, there you go.
• 44:08
  SPEAKER_03: I really hope he plays that I'm staying optimistic.
• 44:12
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, me too.
• 44:13
  SPEAKER_01: Uh Kelly, who you got?
• 44:15
  SPEAKER_04: Okay, this might seem like very obvious because not everybody chooses 50,000 tight ends to sit on their bench.
• 44:23
  SPEAKER_04: But Isaiah Lakely, you can love him or hate him.
• 44:27
  SPEAKER_04: You may have been a bit fed up because there was a bit of a dry spell early this season, and here we are going into week six.
• 44:37
  SPEAKER_04: Last week, crazy game, as you mentioned, Nico.
• 44:40
  SPEAKER_04: Um, but likely had 11 catches, 94 yards, two touchdowns against Washington.
• 44:46
  SPEAKER_04: And then the previous week, week four, he had uh seven passes.
• 44:52
  SPEAKER_04: Um, so he's getting plenty of volume.
• 44:55
  SPEAKER_04: He did injure his foot, but there's uh full practice today.
• 44:59
  SPEAKER_04: He wasn't um hurting at all.
• 45:02
  SPEAKER_04: So I think we're looking good to start Isaiah Likely this week.
• 45:07
  SPEAKER_04: I don't know if you are that in love with Brock Bowers or that in love with Trey McBride.
• 45:13
  SPEAKER_04: I've been waffling that myself, but if you only have one tight end spot, this might be your chance to give Isaiah Likely a try.
• 45:23
  SPEAKER_04: But I prefer the two touchdown roster or two touchdown, two tight end roster with a tight end.
• 45:31
  SPEAKER_04: Tight end flicks.
• 45:32
  SPEAKER_04: And if you didn't know, you guys in uh DFS, which I play a lot of DFS and uh the Millie Maker, three of the last five weeks have been two tight end rosters.
• 45:48
  SPEAKER_04: So there you go.
• 45:50
  SPEAKER_01: Wow, goodness Natter's not here because he would have a field day of the show.
• 45:53
  SPEAKER_04: You know what?
• 45:54
  SPEAKER_04: This is where we Natter like butt heads.
• 45:58
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, he's got problems.
• 45:59
  SPEAKER_01: Kelly, did we have a question in the chat?
• 46:01
  SPEAKER_01: Do we want to answer it before we go to our sure?
• 46:03
  SPEAKER_04: It's a it's a longy uh boy 12 team.
• 46:07
  SPEAKER_01: Bulldog boy just coming in clutch all the time.
• 46:11
  SPEAKER_04: Half PPR, 12 team league, just traded Aaron Jones and Dobbins for Scataboo and Odunze, yay or nay, and then other RBs are there.
• 46:22
  SPEAKER_03: Well, I I but I like what Aaron Aaron Aaron Jones has been doing.
• 46:25
  SPEAKER_03: I know he's you know the older of the players in this in this conversation, he's the oldest one, but I like what he's been doing, and they've been giving him the rock, but I still believe, yeah, I think I think that scataboo and odunze, although Odunze has been terrible, I do like Scataboo this week.
• 46:40
  SPEAKER_03: Um and Dobbins is so hard to trust.
• 46:43
  SPEAKER_01: The answer here is clearly Jordan Mason.
• 46:45
  SPEAKER_01: Okay, like Jordan Mason is going to be back after the Vikings bye week uh in week six.
• 46:53
  SPEAKER_01: Or well, he's eligible to come off the IR.
• 46:56
  SPEAKER_01: So I'm being very assumptive in saying that.
• 46:58
  SPEAKER_01: Aaron Jones is an older running back, he's been carrying the workload for the Vikings for the past three, four weeks without Jordan Mason, and it's gonna be a 50-50 timeshare when Jordan Mason comes back.
• 47:11
  SPEAKER_01: So for that reason, being able to sell high on AJ 33, I think was very smart to do.
• 47:18
  SPEAKER_01: And you're getting Scatibu, who I know he's struggled, but I also view him as a great buy-low candidate.
• 47:24
  SPEAKER_01: He has great usage, he's mediocre efficient, but I think at some point the Giants just have to be done with this whole Najee experiment that they're doing.
• 47:33
  SPEAKER_01: Like it's not, it's not a thing.
• 47:36
  SPEAKER_01: It is a thing.
• 47:37
  SPEAKER_01: Well Jordan Mason's not a thing either.
• 47:40
  SPEAKER_03: He keeps getting hurt.
• 47:42
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, but he's coming back.
• 47:44
  SPEAKER_03: But but but but when I look but when I but this is when when I look at his running backs, though, like I I look at it like this Scattabu would be his number two running back.
• 47:55
  SPEAKER_03: I mean, you could even say Tutin um could be his number two.
• 47:59
  SPEAKER_03: So he's got he's good there.
• 48:03
  SPEAKER_03: And then he's getting a dunze, and that's just really adding to depth for his wide receivers because right now it would be between Sutton and Adunze um if you if you had that many slots for the wide receiver or flex positions, because his first four his first wide receiver is neighbors, T.
• 48:19
  SPEAKER_03: Higgins and D get DK Metcalf.
• 48:22
  SPEAKER_03: And those guys are they locked in.
• 48:24
  SPEAKER_03: So yeah, I I kind of like this, man.
• 48:26
  SPEAKER_03: It adds some depth for his uh wide receivers and it gives him a a damn good running back to go alongside.
• 48:33
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, I like it.
• 48:34
  SPEAKER_04: Oh, and Mitchell.
• 48:35
  SPEAKER_03: I'm sorry, he's got Mitchell too.
• 48:36
  SPEAKER_03: I didn't even see that.
• 48:37
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, you guys give uh the best answers, but we do need to move on to our sits.
• 48:43
  SPEAKER_04: So, tips, since you're talking away, why don't you give us your sit?
• 48:47
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, it's Jalen Warren for me, guys, and I'll be quick.
• 48:50
  SPEAKER_03: He's going against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Tampa Bay at home, they really tighten the screws.
• 48:54
  SPEAKER_03: They're they're they're the second best uh at stopping the run anyway.
• 48:58
  SPEAKER_03: So, but when they're at home, they tighten the screws even more at giving up only 69.3 rushing yards to opposing teams, and uh that's total rushing yards.
• 49:09
  SPEAKER_03: That's running backs, everybody like that's total, that is good.
• 49:12
  SPEAKER_03: And uh Jalen Warren, who everybody saw last week, Jalen Warren actually stole uh what should have been D uh DeAndre Swift's week uh from what he did.
• 49:22
  SPEAKER_03: But um, but what I will say is this week you gotta really sit and try to not uh not play Jalen Warren against these Tampa Babies.
• 49:32
  SPEAKER_03: What I know he's running back nine right now.
• 49:35
  SPEAKER_01: He's killing me.
• 49:36
  SPEAKER_01: Listen, if you got options, if you got options, Rico Doddle, I don't think he's better.
• 49:43
  SPEAKER_01: I think it would be foolish of the Steelers to like do a full-on timeshare with Rico, but I feel like they will, and that breaks into Jalen Warren's value.
• 49:56
  SPEAKER_01: I talked about him as a sell high candidate last week, and now he's got a really tough matchup.
• 50:01
  SPEAKER_01: So I don't hate it.
• 50:02
  SPEAKER_01: Um, but in the running back market, it is a little tough.
• 50:06
  SPEAKER_01: But I like I like the analysis behind it.
• 50:08
  SPEAKER_01: Um my sit of the week is I'm gonna go with the Houston Texans running back, uh, specifically Woody Marks.
• 50:17
  SPEAKER_01: And if you have Woody Marks, congratulations.
• 50:20
  SPEAKER_01: As of today, it looks like Montgomery won't play.
• 50:24
  SPEAKER_01: Uh, so you basically have yourself now a low-end RB2.
• 50:28
  SPEAKER_01: But let's also not forget that Woody hasn't looked much better.
• 50:33
  SPEAKER_01: Like, he's 35th in yards per carry, 29th in EPA per attempt, and 39th in yards after contact per attempt.
• 50:43
  SPEAKER_01: Like, he does have some solid explosive runs.
• 50:46
  SPEAKER_01: He has a 13.2% explosive run rate, but who's he playing?
• 50:50
  SPEAKER_01: He's playing the Jags, man.
• 50:52
  SPEAKER_01: They are so stingy versus the run.
• 50:54
  SPEAKER_01: They rank second and fewest fantasy points per game allowed to running backs, while allowing the ninth most fantasy points per game to opposing wide receivers, meaning you can air it out um on them, which is why I went with Stroud earlier when it was Stroud versus Aaron Rodgers.
• 51:09
  SPEAKER_01: The Texans also went out and got mini mini van mini van Marv, which we talked about in our show.
• 51:15
  SPEAKER_01: And they're gonna try to win this game through the air, not on the ground.
• 51:18
  SPEAKER_01: So you're better off starting someone like Emmanuel Wilson tomorrow night, Tony Pollard, who I discussed earlier against the Colts, even Damian Pierce if Saquon Barkley doesn't go, or Marshawn Lloyd, even who I crapped on earlier this week, because he has the Cowboys and Chris Brooks is still hurt, he's still presumed to carry most of the workloads.
• 51:37
  SPEAKER_01: So sit Woody Marks this week if you can.
• 51:39
  SPEAKER_01: But if you do have him, you know, he might be very usable here for the next few weeks.
• 51:45
  SPEAKER_03: Well, I can't wait to hear your sit, Kelly.
• 51:48
  SPEAKER_03: This is gonna warm my heart.
• 51:49
  SPEAKER_04: Is it?
• 51:50
  SPEAKER_04: I mean, I kind of waffled on this.
• 51:53
  SPEAKER_04: It was definitely gonna be a quarterback.
• 51:54
  SPEAKER_04: Mailbag stole my thunder a little bit, but we need to sit Justin Herbert.
• 51:59
  SPEAKER_04: We just do.
• 52:00
  SPEAKER_04: And I need to say this out loud.
• 52:02
  SPEAKER_04: Before the season really got going, there's this photo of him and Madison Beer, and they're just so deeply in love.
• 52:09
  SPEAKER_04: And I gave all of these stats about how about how these players that have been in love, get engaged, get married, their performance increases.
• 52:21
  SPEAKER_04: I don't know if there's trouble in paradise or what, but Justin Herbert has stayed below 14 fantasy points in the last five weeks, every single game, and just five passing touchdowns, seven interceptions.
• 52:35
  SPEAKER_04: Like, how do you have more interceptions than passing touchdowns?
• 52:39
  SPEAKER_04: That's really gross, and I don't want to see it in week six.
• 52:48
  SPEAKER_04: No, thanks for the sounds while I'm there.
• 52:50
  SPEAKER_04: While I'm here, I mean, yeah, I don't want to see it.
• 52:53
  SPEAKER_04: It's gross.
• 52:54
  SPEAKER_04: If you can get literally anybody, I would play them.
• 52:58
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, no, it's it it warms my heart because I'm a Raiders fan.
• 53:03
  SPEAKER_03: And I love hearing any anytime somebody can bash on the Chargers, I love it.
• 53:08
  SPEAKER_03: So yeah, this is this is warming my heart.
• 53:11
  SPEAKER_01: And before we move on to our uh crusty picks uh presented by Pickett, uh, we will post on social media uh the rest of our starts and sits for the week.
• 53:22
  SPEAKER_01: Um, so just be on the lookout on that.
• 53:25
  SPEAKER_01: Uh shameless plug to also follow us on the socials, like and subscribe, leave a five-star review.
• 53:31
  SPEAKER_01: But let's go into our crusty picks presented by Pickett.
• 53:37
  SPEAKER_04: Crusty picks brought to you by Pickett.
• 53:42
  SPEAKER_03: Nico, you just couldn't wait to get to this segment.
• 53:44
  SPEAKER_03: We Nico wanted this segment to be first, so he can see all of the check marks that he's got on uh uh by his name.
• 53:53
  SPEAKER_03: I got a couple of crusties, but I don't have as many as Natter.
• 53:57
  SPEAKER_03: But uh Nico, talk to us, bro.
• 53:59
  SPEAKER_03: You've been five for five.
• 54:01
  SPEAKER_03: What's up, man?
• 54:03
  SPEAKER_01: Dude, Nader's about to get a pie to the face.
• 54:06
  SPEAKER_01: He's he's trending in the wrong direction.
• 54:10
  SPEAKER_01: Um, no, I had uh Josh Allen uh last week over I forget the exact number, I think it was like 200 and I don't know, 68 and a half combined rushing and receiving and receiving uh rushing and passing yards.
• 54:24
  SPEAKER_01: I just I felt it was a game he had to bring out his Superman cape um and do something special.
• 54:30
  SPEAKER_01: Uh I was a little nervous when DJ Moore got ruled out, but that's what you get for having a Wednesday show and not a Sunday or Monday show.
• 54:42
  SPEAKER_01: Uh as far as this week goes, um I'm gonna go to probably one of Kelly's favorite players.
• 54:49
  SPEAKER_01: Don't know if it's actual fact, actually facts or not, but George Kittle, uh, over 59 and a half receiving yards.
• 54:57
  SPEAKER_01: Washington commanders have allowed the second most fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends.
• 55:02
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, Kelly talked about it earlier.
• 55:04
  SPEAKER_01: Just look what they did, look what they allowed to Isaiah Likely.
• 55:08
  SPEAKER_01: And Kittle is due.
• 55:10
  SPEAKER_01: He, after a bit of a dud uh against a stingy Seahawks defense last week, um, there was also reports that he was a little ill uh going into the game.
• 55:20
  SPEAKER_01: So I'm sure that probably had something to do with it.
• 55:22
  SPEAKER_01: He still played and whatnot, but and I could list a ton of metrics showing how good he is, but everybody who's tuning in knows that he's an absolute star.
• 55:31
  SPEAKER_01: I would confidently play this up to 64 and a half.
• 55:34
  SPEAKER_01: Uh I played this over on uh Onyx odds uh at minus 130 to keep the streak alive.
• 55:43
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, okay.
• 55:44
  SPEAKER_03: Let's see if you can maintain your hot streak and stay undefeated and go six and oh as far as crusty picks for me.
• 55:52
  SPEAKER_03: Um last week I Amanra St.
• 55:55
  SPEAKER_03: Brown, brother.
• 55:56
  SPEAKER_03: Oh disappointed me, man.
• 55:58
  SPEAKER_03: You uh you were like a yard short.
• 56:00
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, it was like seven yards away.
• 56:02
  SPEAKER_03: It was less than 10 yards, I know that for sure, because he got like 69 yards and he was supposed to get 76, I think it was score.
• 56:10
  SPEAKER_03: Exactly, and you didn't, butt head.
• 56:13
  SPEAKER_03: And so uh so for me, I'm gonna go with uh Michael Wilson this week.
• 56:19
  SPEAKER_03: I'm going to another wide receiver going against the LA Rams, and his over-under is 59 and a half.
• 56:27
  SPEAKER_03: Uh, last two games against this team, the Rams, he's averaged 120 receiving yards, including a 16-target game where he had 11 catches in early December last year.
• 56:36
  SPEAKER_03: And then not only that, he's averaged 71 receiving yards against this team and one little revenge factor.
• 56:46
  SPEAKER_03: Mike LaFleur is playing against his whole team, the Rams.
• 56:50
  SPEAKER_03: So, you know, there might be a little bit of uh cat and mouse game going on over there.
• 56:55
  SPEAKER_03: And you know, Sean McVay's pissed off because he was one of those uh coaches who I talked about earlier who said, That's on me, that's on me.
• 57:02
  SPEAKER_03: So this is gonna be a good game.
• 57:04
  SPEAKER_03: I'm I'm excited to see it, and I think that Mike Michael Wilson will uh get over 59 and a half yards.
• 57:12
  SPEAKER_04: I mean, I I love that.
• 57:14
  SPEAKER_04: I know you love it, Kelly, right?
• 57:16
  SPEAKER_01: Why you're on board with me.
• 57:18
  SPEAKER_01: Why in the world did he not have a million yards last week?
• 57:23
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it was really weird, man.
• 57:25
  SPEAKER_04: I think there is a lot of double coverage.
• 57:29
  SPEAKER_04: Um, and that could play into that whole Marvin Harrison Jr.
• 57:33
  SPEAKER_04: decoy type thing.
• 57:35
  SPEAKER_04: We'll have to see, I guess.
• 57:37
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 57:39
  SPEAKER_01: Well, it only happened once.
• 57:40
  SPEAKER_01: We'll give it a mistake, or we'll give him a pass.
• 57:42
  SPEAKER_03: And Kendrick Bourne continues to be a little bit of a thorn in his side too, Michael Wilson.
• 57:47
  SPEAKER_03: But I think you know, you were looking for you were looking for a higher scoring game than what we really got.
• 57:52
  SPEAKER_03: And you were looking for like, I mean, it would turn out to be a pretty high, but you were looking for like shootouts the whole time, and it it really just didn't transpire for Wilson.
• 58:01
  SPEAKER_01: Uh wasn't it like 34 to 21?
• 58:05
  SPEAKER_03: I don't know.
• 58:06
  SPEAKER_01: Something like that.
• 58:07
  SPEAKER_01: It was pretty high.
• 58:08
  SPEAKER_01: I started it was higher than I started Jacoby Brissett in a stupid amount of leagues last week, so I know that he had three touchdown passes.
• 58:16
  SPEAKER_01: So I know the Cardinals had 21.
• 58:18
  SPEAKER_01: Um, I don't remember exactly what the Lions had, but I was just shocked that Michael Wilson was I think kind of put up a dud.
• 58:26
  SPEAKER_01: Uh given the situation.
• 58:29
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, four for 30.
• 58:31
  SPEAKER_04: I think it was still like 10 fantasy points um in PPR, but that's that's not gonna win you your match, so sure.
• 58:42
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, I mean uh throwing out there.
• 58:44
  SPEAKER_03: So it was 45 45 to 21.
• 58:47
  SPEAKER_03: I was kept looking for the score 45 to 21 because Arizona they were playing from behind, so that's what you were thinking that it was gonna be, you know, and and that's where Jacoby to Brissett actually did a lot of his work because they were playing from behind.
• 58:59
  SPEAKER_03: He got those three touchdowns, none of them just went to Wilson.
• 59:03
  SPEAKER_04: That's that's a little little crazy, but I'm wondering if uh I should just put one in for Natter and help him get a check mark instead of requesting.
• 59:13
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, yeah, he hasn't been doing it, so yeah, he needs help.
• 59:16
  SPEAKER_04: We could take a look at um DraftKings if you want.
• 59:20
  SPEAKER_04: This happens to be one of my faves because they have this little slidey scale that makes it easy for you to tease if you like to do so.
• 59:28
  SPEAKER_04: I think the easy pick would be Isaiah likely four and a half receptions, but I want to tease that up uh five and a half receptions, and you're still at um minus 173.
• 59:45
  SPEAKER_04: If you're trying to look at plus money, you're at six and a half at plus one sixteen.
• 59:51
  SPEAKER_04: That might be a little steep for me, although that is his average six point six receptions.
• 59:58
  SPEAKER_04: If you want to live on the edge, oh there it is.
• 1:00:00
  SPEAKER_04: So but I'm gonna lock it in at five and a half receptions.
• 1:00:05
  SPEAKER_04: Isaiah likely, a tight end for Nader.
• 1:00:09
  SPEAKER_04: I think he's gonna have to.
• 1:00:10
  SPEAKER_03: Yes, that's what I love.
• 1:00:11
  SPEAKER_01: I was gonna say I was gonna say, I just pulled up Pickett, and on all the books that I have synced into Pickett, four and a half.
• 1:00:20
  SPEAKER_01: The best odds in the seven books that I have synced is minus one seventy-three.
• 1:00:24
  SPEAKER_01: We are not gonna allow minus one seventy-three to be in this pick.
• 1:00:29
  SPEAKER_01: It needs to be minus one forty or better.
• 1:00:32
  SPEAKER_01: So, but five and a half is plus one seventeen, so he should almost get like oh, there you go.
• 1:00:36
  SPEAKER_04: Oh, I think it's pulling in uh minus one fourteen, you said at five and a half.
• 1:00:43
  SPEAKER_01: Five and a half, uh, plus one seventeen is the best odds I see in the like I said.
• 1:00:49
  SPEAKER_01: So pick it, you sync all your sports books, right?
• 1:00:51
  SPEAKER_01: Pick a play, right?
• 1:00:52
  SPEAKER_01: It shows you all your books and the best of line and odds.
• 1:00:56
  SPEAKER_01: So clearly, you're just gonna play it on the book that you have synced with the best odds.
• 1:01:01
  SPEAKER_01: So like Novig has like plus one eleven, but like Onyx odds, which I also use here in Minnesota because it's a sports prediction market, um, is plus one seventeen.
• 1:01:11
  SPEAKER_01: So I guess I don't know what it is on DK, but well, you lock it in.
• 1:01:15
  SPEAKER_04: I'm gonna say five and a half for Isaiah Likely at the 117.
• 1:01:22
  SPEAKER_04: And I need to check out Picket.
• 1:01:23
  SPEAKER_04: I've been slow to adopt because I only use like four sports books and not 25, but it still works for four splits sports books.
• 1:01:34
  SPEAKER_04: Sporks.
• 1:01:35
  SPEAKER_04: I like to eat Taco Bell, apparently.
• 1:01:37
  SPEAKER_01: Sporks use code Nico.
• 1:01:40
  SPEAKER_01: It is free by the way.
• 1:01:46
  SPEAKER_04: Free, but you get recognition.
• 1:01:50
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, then you're doing a good job.
• 1:01:53
