Ranking Every Week 2 Running Back as a Sit or Start · BDGE Fantasy Football

0:00
[SPEAKER_00]: Good morning friends!
0:02
[SPEAKER_00]: and enemies.
0:03
[SPEAKER_00]: And welcome into the week to running back preview, where we go game by game, we rank and we tear every single running back that's relevant for fantasy football.
0:11
[SPEAKER_00]: We go through injury updates and sadices.
0:13
[SPEAKER_00]: We go through the weather of the games.
0:15
[SPEAKER_00]: We go through their player props and Vegas.
0:17
[SPEAKER_00]: We go through everything you need to know about before you make your start sit decisions.
0:21
[SPEAKER_00]: We do the exact same thing for why receivers tomorrow.
0:24
[SPEAKER_00]: So if you want to hear that after you hear this, make sure you subscribe to the channel as always.
0:28
[SPEAKER_00]: All of our rankings are available
0:32
[SPEAKER_00]: to see members.
0:33
[SPEAKER_00]: First game up on the slate, we have got the Detroit Lions at the Buffalo Bills.
0:39
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, highest total on the slate here 54 and a half.
0:43
[SPEAKER_00]: The Lions are five and a half point underdogs and I think a lot of people will ask why that spread is so big.
0:49
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a lot of data.
0:50
[SPEAKER_00]: at least going around right now about, you know, teams coming off of overtime games on short weeks.
0:56
[SPEAKER_00]: That would really be the premise behind the spread here.
0:58
[SPEAKER_00]: The Lions obviously played into overtime against the Saints in week one and now they're traveling too Buffalo on Thursday, Night Football.
1:04
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's quick turnaround.
1:05
[SPEAKER_00]: You played an extra 25% of a game.
1:08
[SPEAKER_00]: It all makes sense.
1:09
[SPEAKER_00]: So does the spread 54 and a half.
1:10
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, based on how Josh Allen and the bills looked against the Houston Texans can only imagine what they're going to do against the Detroit Lions banged up secondary who are not going to have Kirby Joseph or Brian Branch in this one.
1:22
[SPEAKER_00]: Again, no tearing Arnold either way.
1:24
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a running back preview.
1:25
[SPEAKER_00]: So Jamira Gibbs is going right into the Mustard category.
1:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Of course, should be mentioned that two of the Lions offensive linemen
1:32
[SPEAKER_00]: We're DNP's on Monday, Blake Miller and Christian Mahogany does sound like Miller is going to play, but we do have to see those reports getting back regardless, it's not really a talking point given the fact that you're never not going to put Gibbs in the most art category James Cook on the other hand, I'm throwing him back into the most art category again, it's
1:48
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a relatively tough match against the Detroit Lions run defense, which I think is eventually going to show out as being a pretty good one.
1:54
[SPEAKER_00]: And James Cook obviously had a down game, but listen, Josh Allen just completely took control.
1:58
[SPEAKER_00]: And we're going to see games like that when he's when he rushes for two touchdowns, that's going to be at the detriment of James Cook.
2:03
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's going to happen.
2:04
[SPEAKER_00]: But we've seen multiple years in a row now where both of them can eat.
2:08
[SPEAKER_00]: on the ground.
2:08
[SPEAKER_00]: I will say one of the like over arching concerns here is like this was a game where Ty Johnson did not play in.
2:14
[SPEAKER_00]: Ty Johnson did get back to a limited practice on Monday.
2:17
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's trending towards implying not a guaranteed thing, but to get back to a limited practice three days before the game does end up putting him in a good direction.
2:26
[SPEAKER_00]: And in the second half of the default or the huge sin Buffalo game, James Cook really wasn't playing too many of the passing down snaps.
2:34
[SPEAKER_00]: It was actually Frank or Junior.
2:36
[SPEAKER_00]: So regardless, it's James Cook.
2:38
[SPEAKER_00]: We're not going to overthink this one.
2:40
[SPEAKER_00]: Put them in there and move on to the next game.
2:42
[SPEAKER_00]: We have Carolina at Atlanta.
2:45
[SPEAKER_00]: One PM slate.
2:46
[SPEAKER_00]: These are on, of course, going into the Mustart category.
2:48
[SPEAKER_00]: Then we have this duo of two harbored and just
2:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Jonathan Brooks and it became pretty clear.
2:52
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel like by the end of the summer that it was going to be like Chuba Hubbard to start things off very, very hot.
2:57
[SPEAKER_00]: And Jonathan Brooks was like missing practice.
2:59
[SPEAKER_00]: And it just felt like they were going to ease him in the vibe.
3:01
[SPEAKER_00]: Shifted completely.
3:02
[SPEAKER_00]: Once Chuba Hubbard, you know, had his hamstring early in August, the hamstring injury, then everything started pushing towards Jonathan Brooks.
3:08
[SPEAKER_00]: And my sentiment,
3:09
[SPEAKER_00]: felt like this is too high.
3:10
[SPEAKER_00]: There's too much risk.
3:11
[SPEAKER_00]: Like once you was healthy, they're still going to use him in one A, one B situation at worst.
3:15
[SPEAKER_00]: And it was a clear like shift towards Chuba being the dude in week one.
3:19
[SPEAKER_00]: And he dominated snaps.
3:21
[SPEAKER_00]: He scored two touchdowns.
3:22
[SPEAKER_00]: They get a pretty good match up against the Atlanta Falcons who now lost another interior defensive lineman who is likely going to be out for the year.
3:29
[SPEAKER_00]: So right now until we see Jonathan Brooks like regained that form or regained more control the back field, which I do still think is going to happen over the course of the year But this first month is going to be chewed because they trust him so much now every matchups not going to be like the Chicago Bears where you can just do whatever you want on offense But I would say chew was a dub flex Jonathan Brooks is I wouldn't even put him in the shaky flex category He's one of those we want to see it go through the hoop before he's back into our line-ups in any capacity right
3:55
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, New Orleans at Baltimore King, you are my goat, and we are going to start you shocking.
4:03
[SPEAKER_00]: On the flip side, the Saints, we do have a bit of a concerning runout here, and you know, going over the game situation, et cetera.
4:10
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a 47 and a half point total.
4:12
[SPEAKER_00]: So, pretty high scoring total on the slate here.
4:14
[SPEAKER_00]: The Ravens are seven and a half point favorites.
4:17
[SPEAKER_00]: And the other thing to call out with Derek Henry is, is they flowers.
4:19
[SPEAKER_00]: He's got the hamstring injury.
4:20
[SPEAKER_00]: We don't know if he's going to play or not.
4:21
[SPEAKER_00]: If he doesn't suit up, I'd imagine Derek Henry gets another,
4:24
[SPEAKER_00]: 25 carries at minimum in this game to Kobe Lane also going to be out for this one.
4:29
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, but on the flip side, we have travesty TN and Kendra Miller and possibly Alvin Kamara it seemed like Alim Kamara was like trending towards playing and then they didn't end up playing him.
4:38
[SPEAKER_00]: So I would say he's, you know,
4:39
[SPEAKER_00]: 50, 50 to suit up in week two and that does beg the question like if ETN and Kendra Miller were already splitting snaps and then you had this guy CJ Donaldson playing on some third-down snaps.
4:49
[SPEAKER_00]: This Kamara take that role and then is this a true three-headed backfield.
4:54
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like conflicted because ETN was a dude that I was high on in the summer for sure and I'm sure a lot of you guys if you followed my rankings and stuff you ended up with some travesty TN that they'll like the four five turn but you probably ended up with a lot of Kenneth Walker so
5:05
[SPEAKER_00]: Shout out y'all that drift at him, but eating in my read on the ETN situation is like, yeah, it's definitely, it definitely wasn't a positive outcome for sure.
5:13
[SPEAKER_00]: He split carries with Kendra and Miller.
5:14
[SPEAKER_00]: I think they both had eight or nine carries.
5:16
[SPEAKER_00]: Kendra and Miller did score from inside the 10 yard line.
5:19
[SPEAKER_00]: ETN obviously dominated the passcatching work ended up seeing nine targets because they ran so many plays and shook attempted so many passes.
5:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, that'd be sticky.
5:26
[SPEAKER_00]: When Alvin come on comes back, does he play more of a passcatching role?
5:30
[SPEAKER_00]: Overall, I don't want to over
5:35
[SPEAKER_00]: early on that maybe it was one of those situations where kelomore was like we got to try something else like let's get some other faces on the field and see if we can get something going there.
5:44
[SPEAKER_00]: So again, don't want to overreact.
5:46
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to put ETN back into the dub flex category minus 105 as in any time touchdown score here.
5:51
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not going to start obviously out of tomorrow if you play is I'm not going to start Kendra Miller if he plays either.
5:55
[SPEAKER_00]: But Travis ETN, you know, he's on he's on alert for sure he's on alert.
5:59
[SPEAKER_00]: Next matchup.
6:00
[SPEAKER_00]: We've got the Minnesota Vikings at the Chicago Bears 47.5 point total here, and a five and a half point spread in favor of Chicago.
6:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Also should be worth shouting out to you guys.
6:12
[SPEAKER_00]: If any of you guys are fantasy members and you're using
6:15
[SPEAKER_00]: the rankings going forward, obvious to know that these matchup bubbles, which if you're new here, they represent fantasy points allowed to the opponents running back here.
6:26
[SPEAKER_00]: So like Carolina has allowed these single most fantasy points to closing running back.
6:29
[SPEAKER_00]: So this is EPA per Rush.
6:31
[SPEAKER_00]: This is success rate per Rush.
6:32
[SPEAKER_00]: And this is explosive Rush rate allowed.
6:35
[SPEAKER_00]: So a lot of green obviously means easy matchup.
6:38
[SPEAKER_00]: So, however, it's an extremely small sample size.
6:41
[SPEAKER_00]: when we did week one rankings, they were based on all of 2025 as we get into 2026, like these are based on just week one rankings of 2026.
6:49
[SPEAKER_00]: So obviously, they are not sticking in any capacity.
6:52
[SPEAKER_00]: So just kind of use your brain a little bit when you're looking at the rankings on the front end in terms of matchups and opponent.
6:58
[SPEAKER_00]: So week one is going to be a very small sample size.
7:00
[SPEAKER_00]: As we get
7:01
[SPEAKER_00]: towards like week three and four, we're going to start to see like the actual success of these teams or lack of success of these teams for the defensive matchups develop more so.
7:10
[SPEAKER_00]: The Andre Swift commonung I huge week one against the Carolina Panthers defense.
7:15
[SPEAKER_00]: I think this is just going to be a team that has a ton of success obviously on the ground throughout the course of the year Ben Johnson is a mastermind.
7:22
[SPEAKER_00]: Their offensive line is very, very good.
7:24
[SPEAKER_00]: Like running behind Darnell Wright is basically just a fucking cheat code at this point.
7:27
[SPEAKER_00]: The Andre Swift,
7:29
[SPEAKER_00]: definitely had a huge favor over Kalmanungai in terms of snaps.
7:32
[SPEAKER_00]: I do think we likely see that come back to a little bit closer to what we saw last year.
7:38
[SPEAKER_00]: Not a pure 50-50, maybe like a 58-42 in favor of Dianjaro Swift rather than like the 65-70 we saw in favor of him in week one.
7:46
[SPEAKER_00]: Kalmanungai is coming back from like a month-long injury that he sat out most of August for.
7:50
[SPEAKER_00]: uh he did break away like 60 art touchdown, which is crazy.
7:53
[SPEAKER_00]: I didn't even think he had that in him, but good to see he's like very, very fully healthy.
7:56
[SPEAKER_00]: They both will be used at a very high capacity in this one.
7:59
[SPEAKER_00]: Tough matchup against the Minnesota Vikings, obviously.
8:02
[SPEAKER_00]: But the Andre Swift looks awesome.
8:04
[SPEAKER_00]: His anytime touchdown line is minus one 55, which is you know.
8:08
[SPEAKER_00]: Pure insanity there.
8:09
[SPEAKER_00]: He's going into the field is good category.
8:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously if you have them, you're putting them into your line up common.
8:13
[SPEAKER_00]: Guys, I'm going to throw him into the shaky flex category like he will get 10 carries likely in this one if he doesn't score touchdown though.
8:18
[SPEAKER_00]: He's not really going to do much for you.
8:20
[SPEAKER_00]: The other side of the ball is more confusing Jordan Mason Aaron Jones.
8:23
[SPEAKER_00]: They played about equal snaps.
8:25
[SPEAKER_00]: Last week, they both got into the end zone.
8:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Jordan Mason did get the character from the one yard line, but Aaron Jones scored from within the 10 yard line as well.
8:31
[SPEAKER_00]: And this was kind of like the concern with this backfield going in.
8:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Everybody was like, Aaron Jones has watched Aaron Jones's old Aaron Jones sucks and it's Mason's backfield.
8:38
[SPEAKER_00]: And I started to buy into that a little bit, but it's very clear that if they're both healthy, they're both going to be used in a split back field capacity.
8:45
[SPEAKER_00]: Do I think
8:45
[SPEAKER_00]: Jordan Mason's the better runner on the ground.
8:47
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, they combine for one target last game.
8:50
[SPEAKER_00]: So it doesn't seem like they're going to be a very high running back target offense.
8:54
[SPEAKER_00]: And obviously one game is not sticky, but either way, Mason's not a very volume based passcatching running back to begin with.
9:01
[SPEAKER_00]: That being said, they are playing against the Chicago bears.
9:04
[SPEAKER_00]: So if Chubobber could do it, Jordan Mason can probably do it.
9:08
[SPEAKER_00]: So he's going to go into the Dubflex category, but he's going to go towards the bottom of it, because I just don't feel secure with the rolls here.
9:15
[SPEAKER_00]: Aaron Jones can go into the shaky flex category, and we can move upwards and onwards.
9:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Cincinnati at Houston.
9:23
[SPEAKER_00]: 46 and a half point total here.
9:25
[SPEAKER_00]: They are playing in Houston.
9:26
[SPEAKER_00]: So they're in the dome.
9:28
[SPEAKER_00]: Houston is favored by three points.
9:30
[SPEAKER_00]: Dave Montgomery coming off of a three touchdown game.
9:33
[SPEAKER_00]: Don't know how many three touchdown games he's had in his career prior to that.
9:35
[SPEAKER_00]: But I can't imagine that that was not at worst his second.
9:39
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe his first.
9:40
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
9:41
[SPEAKER_00]: 20 carries for about 60 yards.
9:42
[SPEAKER_00]: So zero efficiency on the ground there against their Buffalo Bills run defense.
9:46
[SPEAKER_00]: That's not going to be very good.
9:48
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think, but they get the bangles next.
9:52
[SPEAKER_00]: Improved last week for sure.
9:54
[SPEAKER_00]: I think a lot of that was aided by, you know, four force fumbles.
9:57
[SPEAKER_00]: Not going to be the case all the time.
9:58
[SPEAKER_00]: They did allow, you know, 25, 27 points, whatever it was.
10:01
[SPEAKER_00]: So like you will out 27 points and you had four force fumbles and recoveries there, you know, I don't want to get over my skis about how the bangles defenses like incredibly improved.
10:10
[SPEAKER_00]: They're definitely going to be better.
10:11
[SPEAKER_00]: They're definitely going to be better against the run, especially with extra Lawrence in there.
10:14
[SPEAKER_00]: But I don't think we should like over dramatize what they did in week one as if that's predictable for the rest of the season at this point though like David Montgomery feels like a lock for nearly 20 touches because they want to run the offensive and that's why they signed it.
10:26
[SPEAKER_00]: And now I doubt there's anything that they saw in week one after three touchdowns that wasn't like, you know, we made the right move here.
10:32
[SPEAKER_00]: On the flip side though, Woody Marx had nearly as many snaps as David Montgomery did.
10:37
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think a lot of people really take notice of that.
10:39
[SPEAKER_00]: Given the fact that David Montgomery obviously had the huge fantasy day, he'll get all the goal line work, but Woody Marx was on the field a lot and I actually think because of that and based on the matchup, you can flex him.
10:49
[SPEAKER_00]: if you need to.
10:50
[SPEAKER_00]: He's not, you know, he's not someone that I think you need to leave for dead.
10:53
[SPEAKER_00]: I think he will get, you know, close to 10 touches per game, especially in a game script where I could see them needing to score points, the game script where, you know, they'll be in the game here and need some pass catching ability out of the backfield.
11:04
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think Woody Marx is the worst start this week.
11:07
[SPEAKER_00]: Chase Brown, tough matchup.
11:08
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, obviously we did see Buffalo put up 36 points, but James Cook didn't have a huge game.
11:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Chase Brown,
11:13
[SPEAKER_00]: It's splitting time with Symajapi, Ryan don't think that was ever really like a question that that was gonna happen, but Chase Brown's gonna get a lot of the valuable touches, obviously.
11:20
[SPEAKER_00]: He's gonna get a lot of the targets.
11:21
[SPEAKER_00]: He will get a decent amount of goal on work there.
11:23
[SPEAKER_00]: So he's gonna go into the field's good category.
11:25
[SPEAKER_00]: I think this is like the appropriate tier to have him in here.
11:28
[SPEAKER_00]: The deandries who have the Chase Brown's the Dave of Montgomerys, they're all gonna be in your line up this week, but I wouldn't put him in the elite tier of guys.
11:34
[SPEAKER_00]: The offensive line for the bangles and Chase Brown did look good, though.
11:37
[SPEAKER_00]: And I would be very optimistic about this offense moving forward.
11:40
[SPEAKER_00]: And, you know, we're throwing them into tears, you know, the mustards that feels good, et cetera.
11:44
[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, if you want my exact rankings, which will be live on the website by the time you guys actually watch this video in terms of like, you know, flex and running back positionals, so you can actually make your starts at decisions.
11:54
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, those will be live on the site for any fantasy members.
11:58
[SPEAKER_00]: Pittsburgh at New England here.
12:01
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a low over under total, 41 and a half points.
12:04
[SPEAKER_00]: New England, five and a half
12:05
[SPEAKER_00]: point favorites after a disastrous week one, where they scored 10 points against the Seattle Seahawks could be a get right game though.
12:13
[SPEAKER_00]: Think the biggest news here for New England is whether or not Trayvion Henderson plays.
12:16
[SPEAKER_00]: He did return to practice earlier this week.
12:18
[SPEAKER_00]: So it does feel like it's trending towards him returning.
12:22
[SPEAKER_00]: What does that really do for Monterey Stevenson?
12:24
[SPEAKER_00]: What does it do for Trayvion Henderson?
12:25
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, they badly need explosive players on that field, obviously, given the fact that AJ Browns is now going to be out for four to six weeks.
12:31
[SPEAKER_00]: So I think Trayvion Henderson will definitely be in there for a share of snaps.
12:34
[SPEAKER_00]: how many snaps does that really end up totalling?
12:36
[SPEAKER_00]: Probably in like the 30, 35% range.
12:39
[SPEAKER_00]: I think they might have to ease him in a little bit.
12:41
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think that was likely going to be the rate honestly to start things off in the season.
12:45
[SPEAKER_00]: Even if he wasn't hurt, it seemed like Ramanjari was the guy.
12:48
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm definitely not over indexing on everyone's original take on like, oh, Ramanjari just looks slow in week one.
12:54
[SPEAKER_00]: They play against Seattle's run defense that's going to be one of if not the best run defenses in the entire NFL.
12:58
[SPEAKER_00]: Everyone's probably going to look pretty bad at the running back position against them.
13:01
[SPEAKER_00]: So let's not be like, Oh, this guy had one bad game with a low yards per carry.
13:05
[SPEAKER_00]: Therefore he is bad in washing everything.
13:07
[SPEAKER_00]: Remandre has been a dude who's kind of proven people wrong for five straight seasons.
13:10
[SPEAKER_00]: So with the return of Traveon, I'm going to put Remondering to the Dub Flex.
13:13
[SPEAKER_00]: He's definitely going to go more towards the top of the category with the ETS, the Chuba, like definitely expect them to lead their backfields, definitely expect them to get the scoring opportunities, definitely expect them to be relatively involved in the passing game, but we don't have a secure read on how the game script is going to flow or how the backfield split is actually going to be.
13:30
[SPEAKER_00]: Traveon's definitely a shaky flex in towards the bottom of that for sure.
13:34
[SPEAKER_00]: The Steelers side of things, last week in a game where the Steelers kind of dominated the
13:40
[SPEAKER_00]: At least the second half, they were never in, you know, in danger of losing the game at all.
13:43
[SPEAKER_00]: They were never in like a passing game script mode.
13:46
[SPEAKER_00]: They still ended up throwing the ball 40 times compared to like 20 running back carries or fewer than that.
13:52
[SPEAKER_00]: I think maybe 18 running back carries.
13:54
[SPEAKER_00]: Rico Dattled did dominate snaps, but touches, Dana Warren still got a ton of touches.
13:58
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like a clear 50 50 split there.
14:00
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think that was that surprising to anybody.
14:02
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think that's what we're going to see going forward.
14:04
[SPEAKER_00]: As you can see from a lot of the red across the board, this one does feel a little bit
14:10
[SPEAKER_00]: the New England Patriots is a very tough run defense with Milton Williams and Christian Barmore in the middle there.
14:15
[SPEAKER_00]: So this is going to be a tough match up, especially for Rico Dattle.
14:19
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm going to throw him into the shaky flex category.
14:21
[SPEAKER_00]: I do think he's probably above the guys like Manungai and Woody Marx and Aaron Jones because he probably sees between 12 and 14 touches.
14:30
[SPEAKER_00]: Jalen Warren,
14:31
[SPEAKER_00]: I think he's a better player than Rico Dautal, but also a little bit of a tough sell.
14:34
[SPEAKER_00]: I would play Jalen Warren over Rico Dautal because I think the talent is there, but I don't feel overly confident in either of these guys in this matchup, especially with how we saw Mike McCarthy kind of operate in week one.
14:46
[SPEAKER_00]: I think we were expecting them to be pretty pass heavy, but like that was another level of it.
14:51
[SPEAKER_00]: And I should mention this is the first yellow weather that this is a major oversight of my part first yellow weather update of the entire season here.
14:59
[SPEAKER_00]: Shout out us why it's caution moderate rain.
15:02
[SPEAKER_00]: So we have a 50% chance of rain with a 10 mile power win.
15:06
[SPEAKER_00]: So nothing crazy here.
15:08
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, these will update in real time as we are getting closer and closer to kick off.
15:13
[SPEAKER_00]: So something to monitor this, this weather for sure is not like, you know, yellow is caution, but it's not actually something that you're changing your lineup for in my opinion.
15:20
[SPEAKER_00]: Once it gets like orange or red, again, all this stuff is available on the front end of the website, as well, if you are a member, but just something to note as we get closer to the games, obviously like six days out right now.
15:31
[SPEAKER_00]: So a lot of this stuff is not super sticky at the moment,
15:36
[SPEAKER_00]: with.
15:37
[SPEAKER_00]: Next game up, Green Bay at New York Jets.
15:39
[SPEAKER_00]: Green on the weather.
15:40
[SPEAKER_00]: We love to see it.
15:41
[SPEAKER_00]: So Green Bay, four and a half point favorites here, 44 and a half point total.
15:45
[SPEAKER_00]: The Jets coming off of a good win against Tennessee, but that's important to, you know, not only preface, but overstate Tennessee, Tennessee, Tennessee.
15:52
[SPEAKER_00]: Breeze Hall looks really good.
15:54
[SPEAKER_00]: Over 20 calories, over 100 rushing yards, scored a rushing touchdown.
15:57
[SPEAKER_00]: How sticky is that going to be in games where they're not playing
16:01
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't have a ton of confidence though.
16:02
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't really feel like the Green Bay Packers defenses is worth a lot of confidence either.
16:08
[SPEAKER_00]: Breeze Hall is anytime touch online at minus 130 feels extremely aggressive.
16:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Marshall on Lloyds is at minus 115.
16:15
[SPEAKER_00]: He did struggle in week one, but I kind of think in hindsight, I was a little bit too aggressive on him and it felt like maybe it was a little more obvious that we should have calculated Christopher Brooks being on the field more and given the blitz rate by Minnesota.
16:29
[SPEAKER_00]: Brian Flores sent a blitz at Jordan Love on like 78% of their plays or something like that.
16:35
[SPEAKER_00]: And because Green Bay's offensive line is quite poor, that was going to be the case.
16:38
[SPEAKER_00]: And Christopher Brooks is their main pass blocking back.
16:40
[SPEAKER_00]: So he probably played a lot more snaps than he would in a normal game.
16:44
[SPEAKER_00]: But I do think against the jets they will try to establish the run a little bit more than they did last week, which does give me relative faith in March on Lloyd and I'll probably get some push back on this, but March on Lloyd for me in this matchup this week not going against Brian Flores and the blitzing defense that he has is going to go into the dub flex category.
17:02
[SPEAKER_00]: you know, you can compare Martian Lloyd to Jalen Warren, you know, and I think people might think that's crazy, but the match up is significantly better.
17:08
[SPEAKER_00]: The anytime touchdown line is significantly better.
17:10
[SPEAKER_00]: The over under the game, 44 and a half.
17:12
[SPEAKER_00]: I just think on paper, at least a lot of things favor, you know, Green Bay winning this game, the spread is in their favor for running backs.
17:19
[SPEAKER_00]: So I will give Martian Lloyd one more chance in a better overarching opportunity.
17:24
[SPEAKER_00]: And then Bree's all is going to go into the field's good category.
17:26
[SPEAKER_00]: I think until he proves to us that he shouldn't be there.
17:28
[SPEAKER_00]: We're going to put him there, Braylon Allen got enough work that I'm going to throw him into the shaky flex category.
17:33
[SPEAKER_00]: And we're going to move along to Cleveland at Tampa Bay.
17:36
[SPEAKER_00]: So we've got a Florida game here in Tampa Bay, Tampa Bay 8.5 point favorites here.
17:42
[SPEAKER_00]: 41.5 point total, really all we have to decipher is the bucks side of things.
17:47
[SPEAKER_00]: So, Buck Earing, good game last week about 20 fantasy points was really involved on passing downs, which was good to see.
17:53
[SPEAKER_00]: We don't have any practice reports yet for Sunday games, unfortunately.
17:57
[SPEAKER_00]: So, we don't know the status of Sean Tucker, and I do think that matters.
18:01
[SPEAKER_00]: Not that I think Sean Tucker's going to have a major role, but I do think there's a world where like when Sean Tucker returns, do Buck E and Sean Tucker like split goal line work 50-50.
18:10
[SPEAKER_00]: If not, maybe it's, you know, 65, 70% in favor of Bucky.
18:13
[SPEAKER_00]: And that means we were probably a little bit too low on him entering the season, but the Browns got ripped apart by the Jacksonville Jaguars.
18:20
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think the bucks will have too much trouble having success against them.
18:24
[SPEAKER_00]: Just generally speaking on the offensive side of the ball.
18:26
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, I think if the bucks could have held on to the ball and stopped fumbling away, like we could have seen an even higher ceiling game for a guy like Bucky Irving.
18:33
[SPEAKER_00]: So for me, he's definitely going into the field's good category.
18:36
[SPEAKER_00]: Kind of gained well, really disappointing in week one.
18:39
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think until we see like a role change, he's definitely going into the shaky flex category, even in a matchup where they are expected to win by
18:44
[SPEAKER_00]: eight and a half points.
18:45
[SPEAKER_00]: Don't want to write them off for dead, definitely not.
18:47
[SPEAKER_00]: I think they sign him to a good money deal to have a role in this offense.
18:50
[SPEAKER_00]: We just didn't really see it come to fruition in week one, unfortunately on the flip side.
18:55
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, the Brown's offense is exactly who we thought they were and that makes pretty much everybody else unplayable.
19:01
[SPEAKER_00]: Quinn John Duckins is going to the shaky flex category.
19:03
[SPEAKER_00]: So we basically saw, I mean, listen, the Jacksonville run defense.
19:06
[SPEAKER_00]: very, very good.
19:08
[SPEAKER_00]: And we saw like the thesis of why Juggins felt like a tough pick in week one, where the Browns have no offensive success, very little time of possession, a bad offensive line, and it lets you know, basically double-digit meaningless carries for Koenchad Juggins, so unless he scores a touchdown, and even as the goal line back, his anytime touchdown line is at 155 here, plus 155.
19:28
[SPEAKER_00]: So he's a heavy underdog, uh, two scoring touchdown here,
19:32
[SPEAKER_00]: And even with the Dylan Samson injury, he's going to be out for a long period of time, where him Sanders actually kind of like got promoted to the passing down role.
19:40
[SPEAKER_00]: So it doesn't look like Juttkins is going to catch many passes there either in a sound like the Sean Watson is delivering accurate passes to anybody who is on the field for the Cleveland Browns.
19:48
[SPEAKER_00]: So tough run out for Quinshaud Juttkins' drafters.
19:52
[SPEAKER_00]: Last one PM game.
19:53
[SPEAKER_00]: We have the Philadelphia Eagles at the Tennessee Titans.
20:00
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, I think the story of the week one game for Philly was like, obviously, you know, they're implementing a brand new offense, but they're offensive line, unfortunately, did not look much better.
20:07
[SPEAKER_00]: Didn't provide a lot of running room for Sake One Barclay, ripped off a big play, but landing Dickerson is clearly like he's just not anymore.
20:13
[SPEAKER_00]: And he's going to be out now for the foreseeable future, which begs the question if the Philadelphia Eagles offensive line can return to anywhere near the status of 2024.
20:22
[SPEAKER_00]: And if week one is any indicator,
20:24
[SPEAKER_00]: Doesn't really look like it, especially against a Washington commanders front seven there, which, you know, while slightly improved, like it's still the Washington commander.
20:32
[SPEAKER_00]: So, you know, they're playing the Tennessee tie-in.
20:33
[SPEAKER_00]: So, for say-quan, like, he's still going to go into the Mustar category.
20:38
[SPEAKER_00]: They're likely going to run the ball, you know, upwards of 35 plus times in this game.
20:42
[SPEAKER_00]: So, we're just going to have say-quan in our line-ups until we need to take him out, which won't be at least in this matchup.
20:48
[SPEAKER_00]: On the flip side of things, I don't know how you can, like, I'm not eating now.
20:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Just nope.
20:53
[SPEAKER_00]: No per stains.
20:54
[SPEAKER_00]: Jacksonville at Denver.
20:55
[SPEAKER_00]: First 4 PM slate game.
20:57
[SPEAKER_00]: We've got a 45.5 point total.
20:59
[SPEAKER_00]: Jacksonville 2.5 point underdogs.
21:01
[SPEAKER_00]: They are in Denver.
21:02
[SPEAKER_00]: We are in Mile High.
21:04
[SPEAKER_00]: And, you know, this is one of those situations where you see the green dots and you're like, hell yeah, a great matchup.
21:08
[SPEAKER_00]: No, of course not.
21:09
[SPEAKER_00]: Kenneth Walker just dogged them on Monday night football and put them into the green.
21:13
[SPEAKER_00]: That is Kenneth Walker put them into the green.
21:16
[SPEAKER_00]: That's the way that we will categorize them.
21:19
[SPEAKER_00]: These are a couple of tough, tough backfields to figure out.
21:22
[SPEAKER_00]: For Jacksonville, based all two, and obviously severely outplayed.
21:25
[SPEAKER_00]: Chris Chaturig is in terms of yardage and production and everything like that.
21:29
[SPEAKER_00]: But the usage was
21:30
[SPEAKER_00]: pretty split 27 snaps for base y'all to in 23 for Chris Rodriguez.
21:35
[SPEAKER_00]: He had 15 carries to Rodriguez is six, which is really encouraging considering like if we were going to see a split where it was like concerning it was more like Chris Rodriguez would get you know the the carries more so than two and we didn't see any rushes inside the five-yard line because Trevor was just throwing dots from 30 yards out and they were just scoring at will from wherever they wanted to
21:58
[SPEAKER_00]: They had the same amount of routes run.
21:59
[SPEAKER_00]: So based on two and ran eight routes, Chris Rodriguez ran eight routes.
22:02
[SPEAKER_00]: So like we're still a little bit uncertain about how this backfield is going to split up.
22:06
[SPEAKER_00]: If there's any actual rhyme or reason to their roles or if it's just like, hey, two and go do your thing until your tired come out.
22:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Rodriguez do your thing until your tired to go in there, a short down a distance snaps.
22:16
[SPEAKER_00]: five for Rodriguez three for two in long down and distance two for two in one for Rodriguez.
22:21
[SPEAKER_00]: So I think we all kind of saw with our eyes two and looks like a guy.
22:24
[SPEAKER_00]: He looks like the guy.
22:26
[SPEAKER_00]: But until we see the snaps really dispersed more until we have more clarity on what the actual goal line situation is, I find it a little bit difficult to put him anywhere above a dub flex, especially in a matchup against Denver who, of course, they struggled against Kenneth Walker, but like they will be a very, very minus minus matchup for running backs for the remainder of the season.
22:46
[SPEAKER_00]: Rodriguez, on the other hand, definitely a very, very shaky flex.
22:50
[SPEAKER_00]: Should also be noted, while there is a lot of talk about a pure pass catching specialist Jacksonville running back, Amirabdula and the Quinn Allen both played in this game, they only combined for six snaps and ran two total routes.
23:03
[SPEAKER_00]: Amirabdula had four carriers to zero for the Quinn Allen.
23:07
[SPEAKER_00]: And again, another part of this game script last week that made things a little bit difficult to decipher is that Jacksonville got up
23:12
[SPEAKER_00]: So big and we're up so big for so long in the game that actually bench the starters by the fourth quarter.
23:17
[SPEAKER_00]: So like those numbers for a mayor of dual equipment Allen in my opinion are very, very positive for two in our league is because it does seem like a pure two headed back field as opposed to having like a pure pass catching specialist on the flip.
23:27
[SPEAKER_00]: side of things.
23:28
[SPEAKER_00]: We've got Dobbins.
23:28
[SPEAKER_00]: We've got RJ Harvey and a little bit of the same could be said because we weren't really sure like what Jonah Coleman's involvement was going to be in this game and this is another one where the game kind of got away from Denver.
23:38
[SPEAKER_00]: They were down so big that like do we have a real sample size of like something that we could take away that's harder or more concrete from the backfield?
23:46
[SPEAKER_00]: Probably not, but we do know Jonah Coleman barely played.
23:48
[SPEAKER_00]: even in a blowout.
23:49
[SPEAKER_00]: He only had three snaps while RJ Harvey had 25.
23:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Dobbins eight carries to RJ Harvey's three in terms of routes run though.
23:54
[SPEAKER_00]: RJ Harvey obviously ran 15 of them while Dobbins only ran six.
23:58
[SPEAKER_00]: So I just think we have a very very clear vision of what this team wants to do.
24:03
[SPEAKER_00]: Like Dobbins is the clear early down back.
24:04
[SPEAKER_00]: He's the guy who's going to lead the team in carries.
24:06
[SPEAKER_00]: RJ Harvey's a clear passing down back.
24:08
[SPEAKER_00]: He's going to lead the team in routes run and targets.
24:10
[SPEAKER_00]: The offense looked miserable in week one.
24:12
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll have to see how long champagne allows Davis Web to call plays for.
24:16
[SPEAKER_00]: I know that's a big storyline heading into week two, week three.
24:18
[SPEAKER_00]: If they continually struggle, I wouldn't be surprised to champagne just pull the plug very quickly.
24:22
[SPEAKER_00]: I will say it's pretty hard to have confidence in either of these running backs right now, given what we saw from the offense in week one.
24:29
[SPEAKER_00]: It's still one of the top offensive lines.
24:31
[SPEAKER_00]: But they don't get an easy match up here in week two.
24:33
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not like I could get right match up.
24:34
[SPEAKER_00]: They're planning against Jacksonville Jaguars.
24:36
[SPEAKER_00]: So make some both a little spooky.
24:38
[SPEAKER_00]: Like again, I think the Broncos offense will be way better of course, and they were on Monday night football, but that being said, not the best match up right now.
24:46
[SPEAKER_00]: They were playing in easier defense.
24:47
[SPEAKER_00]: I think I'd feel a lot more confidence in Dobbins.
24:49
[SPEAKER_00]: Is any time touchdown line a plus 125?
24:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously significantly higher than our J. Harvey's at plus
24:54
[SPEAKER_00]: 2.05.
24:54
[SPEAKER_00]: So our job is going to need a big explosive play.
24:56
[SPEAKER_00]: He's going to need to check down.
24:57
[SPEAKER_00]: But this is still an offense that spreads the ball around a lot.
25:00
[SPEAKER_00]: And Jacob Dobbins is obviously going to need to touch down to come through.
25:02
[SPEAKER_00]: So they're both going to go into the shaky flex category for me.
25:05
[SPEAKER_00]: And there's no one else who starts in this game.
25:07
[SPEAKER_00]: Moving to the Vegas Raiders and the Los Angeles Chargers, Gentie looks like the goat he's going right into the Mustart category of course.
25:14
[SPEAKER_00]: The charges are 6.5 point favorites.
25:17
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a 43.5 point total.
25:18
[SPEAKER_00]: They are playing in LA.
25:19
[SPEAKER_00]: They're in the dome here.
25:20
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a weird run out for the charges, man, because they look so, so, so bad against the Arizona Cardinals.
25:25
[SPEAKER_00]: They lost Tyler Beatash in the summer, so the interior of their offensive line looks like it is once again going to be a problem for them.
25:32
[SPEAKER_00]: And Mike McDonald's game just did not look very good in week one.
25:36
[SPEAKER_00]: Hampton did get home with a touchdown.
25:39
[SPEAKER_00]: This is, you know, on paper, still a pretty good matchup.
25:42
[SPEAKER_00]: So we're putting Hampton into our lineup again, of course, in we too.
25:46
[SPEAKER_00]: We're not writing off the charges right away.
25:49
[SPEAKER_00]: He did split some serious time with key in Mitchell though.
25:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Keaton had about 30 ish 33% of the snaps there.
25:55
[SPEAKER_00]: Bigger days ahead for him, but right now, of course, he's not going to actually go into your line up.
25:59
[SPEAKER_00]: Me, there is anyone else in this game.
26:02
[SPEAKER_00]: Seattle at Arizona, so Seattle's playing in Arizona, in the dome, 40 and a half point total here, three and a half point spread.
26:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, that is because of Drew Lock playing at quarterback instead of Sam Donald.
26:15
[SPEAKER_00]: Now,
26:15
[SPEAKER_00]: I think this is good for the running back since Seattle.
26:18
[SPEAKER_00]: If you're wearing price obviously split snaps of George Alani, they were like, pretty near even.
26:22
[SPEAKER_00]: We did see a manual Wilson come in first and short down in distance stuff.
26:25
[SPEAKER_00]: We don't really have a read on who's going to be the actual goal line back here.
26:28
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, because we didn't get those opportunities in a week one.
26:31
[SPEAKER_00]: But I do think what you're locked out against the Arizona Cardinals.
26:33
[SPEAKER_00]: We should see the running backs featured pretty heavily for Seattle.
26:37
[SPEAKER_00]: So actually, I'm going to throw Jeteria in price.
26:39
[SPEAKER_00]: Who looks just so much better than George Alani so explosive.
26:42
[SPEAKER_00]: I can't imagine that, you know,
26:43
[SPEAKER_00]: It's the first game.
26:44
[SPEAKER_00]: He had injuries he's dealing with throughout August like there was no way they're going to go into week one and just give him a bell cow roll here So would you dare and price?
26:51
[SPEAKER_00]: I think we're gonna continue same with Jeremiah love another rookie first round rookie in this game being featured We're going to see both of these guys get more and more play time because they are so good and so much better than their counterparts in their respective backfields
27:04
[SPEAKER_00]: So I would I would be increasingly optimistic as the week goes by as the as the week go by as they prove more and more themselves as they get healthier and healthier and healthier.
27:12
[SPEAKER_00]: So as Darren Price is going to go into the Dubflex category on the flip side hard to be super optimistic about anybody in the Arizona backfield because right now love and as you are really really splitting the role I think love is probably
27:24
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, less than a hundred percent coming off of the ankle injury, they're also not just going to shove carries into his belly.
27:29
[SPEAKER_00]: When they have a guy like Tyler Algear, who's like a battering ram at this point.
27:32
[SPEAKER_00]: Algear had far more carries than Jeremiah loved it.
27:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Love look awesome, obviously.
27:36
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think they will continue to pepper him with targets over and over again.
27:39
[SPEAKER_00]: But this is just such a difficult matchup against the Seattle Seahawks run defense.
27:43
[SPEAKER_00]: So Algear is going into the shaky flex category.
27:46
[SPEAKER_00]: Jeremiah love, I'm kind of sworn on him right now.
27:48
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, I don't think I want to start him in this matchup.
27:51
[SPEAKER_00]: He looks so good.
27:54
[SPEAKER_00]: But though March on Lloyd, base shot two in Jordan Mason into the Dubflux category, I think Jeremiah loved probably deserves to be in here.
28:00
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think again, as the week's progress, we'll see him take more and more of that snap share.
28:05
[SPEAKER_00]: Is it a huge jump in week two against Seattle?
28:07
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe not.
28:08
[SPEAKER_00]: But that's kind of where I'm landing on these tricky backfield situations.
28:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Dallas, at home against the Washington Commanders, four and a half point favorites here, 50 and a half point total here.
28:19
[SPEAKER_00]: They are expecting Dallas to kind of get right on offense, make sense.
28:22
[SPEAKER_00]: Really good match against the Washington Commanders.
28:24
[SPEAKER_00]: Javante Williams is just in unbelievable role there with everybody in that backfield hurt.
28:29
[SPEAKER_00]: So we can kind of just move past the Dallas Cowboys on the flip side of things.
28:32
[SPEAKER_00]: We have Jacore Croskey Meret, who was clearly like the guy in his backfield in week one.
28:36
[SPEAKER_00]: His Vegas lunch for this week are pretty encouraging.
28:38
[SPEAKER_00]: 13 and a half rushing attempts.
28:40
[SPEAKER_00]: 56 and a half rushing yards.
28:41
[SPEAKER_00]: Plus 120 is in any time touchdown score.
28:44
[SPEAKER_00]: He did fumble late in that game in Ktron Allen came in, but I don't think they're going to hold him out or like punish him long term for that.
28:50
[SPEAKER_00]: So I don't hate jacquiri crossing merit, especially against his Dallas defense.
28:53
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just got torn up by the Giants and Cam Scataboo.
28:56
[SPEAKER_00]: So we're going to throw him into the Dubflex category.
28:58
[SPEAKER_00]: I think he's very, very startable.
29:00
[SPEAKER_00]: Rashad White, he is who we thought he was.
29:03
[SPEAKER_00]: You're not going to put him in your line-up.
29:04
[SPEAKER_00]: Caitron Allen feels like the handcuff to jacquiri crossing merit.
29:07
[SPEAKER_00]: Obviously not in the line-up either.
29:09
[SPEAKER_00]: And Lake Davis, sorry buddy, but you're out for the season.
29:11
[SPEAKER_00]: So we're going to have to hide you behind that wall.
29:14
[SPEAKER_00]: Miami at San Francisco next game up.
29:16
[SPEAKER_00]: They are in San Francisco.
29:17
[SPEAKER_00]: We got good weather across the board here.
29:19
[SPEAKER_00]: 45 and a half point total.
29:21
[SPEAKER_00]: San Francisco 13 and a half point favorites here.
29:23
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, not surprisingly against the Miami Dolphins.
29:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, what's tricky here is we had that split between K-Long black and Christian McAfrey last week when they were playing in Melbourne.
29:32
[SPEAKER_00]: That was kind of like the talk of fantasy on waver wires.
29:35
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, my take on it was like, all right,
29:37
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, seem like dealing with some injuries throughout August.
29:39
[SPEAKER_00]: They're playing a weird game in Melbourne.
29:41
[SPEAKER_00]: Like they also get up pretty big against the Rams.
29:45
[SPEAKER_00]: Christian McAfrey had cramps throughout the game way more indicative of just like we don't need to push this guy right now than what I think we're going to see at a Christian McAfrey.
29:52
[SPEAKER_00]: But again,
29:53
[SPEAKER_00]: This is another one where we might have a similar game script.
29:57
[SPEAKER_00]: We might have a similar notion with Kaylan Black being very involved this week.
30:00
[SPEAKER_00]: So while in our way of our video yesterday, I was like, I don't think Kaylan Black is really much more than the highest end of handcuffs.
30:06
[SPEAKER_00]: I still believe that over the course of the season, but this is one of those matches where he could actually end up being, you know, obviously see Max going to the top of the list of the mustards.
30:13
[SPEAKER_00]: But this is one of those games where we could definitely see Caleb on Black Bee just as involved as he was last week.
30:18
[SPEAKER_00]: There's no reason to give Christian McCaffrey 20 touches up the middle against a team that you should be by multiple touchdown scores here.
30:24
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm not putting him in the dub flex category.
30:26
[SPEAKER_00]: He doesn't catch passes and he needs a touchdown to get there.
30:28
[SPEAKER_00]: But I do think you could probably do worse if you're going to put guys like, you know,
30:31
[SPEAKER_00]: Algier, Chris Rodriguez in this category I wouldn't be surprised if you had the same amount of work in a better matchup than those guys and is any time touchdown line plus 130 like they are expecting a real garbage time here for the San Francisco 49ers and came on black and absolutely clean up here Devon HN yeah, rough week against the Raiders.
30:47
[SPEAKER_00]: I think are like take on him throughout the summer kind of played out in week one But he's still Devon HN.
30:51
[SPEAKER_00]: They're gonna be trailing in this one.
30:52
[SPEAKER_00]: They're gonna throw a ton of passes so like regardless you drafted him early.
30:56
[SPEAKER_00]: He's in your lineup every single week
30:57
[SPEAKER_00]: Sunday at football, we've got Indy at KC.
31:00
[SPEAKER_00]: This one's just making my life easy.
31:01
[SPEAKER_00]: JT Mustard, Kenneth Walker Mustard, let us move onwards.
31:06
[SPEAKER_00]: Giants at the LA Rams for Monday night football.
31:10
[SPEAKER_00]: The Rams, obviously coming off of that embarrassing loss in Melbourne here, they are 7 point favorites.
31:15
[SPEAKER_00]: They are at home, so New York has to travel across country.
31:18
[SPEAKER_00]: Two prime time games in a row for both teams, 47 and a half point total.
31:21
[SPEAKER_00]: absolutely a get right spot for the Los Angeles Rams.
31:25
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, feel really good about Kyron.
31:27
[SPEAKER_00]: I know he's splitting carries, you know, very, very straightforward with Blake Quorum.
31:30
[SPEAKER_00]: I think the biggest lines are like pretty dead on here, 10 and a half carries for Blake Quorum, 45 and a half rushing yards, plus 175 for the any time touch down minus 150 for the any time touch down for Kyron Williams.
31:40
[SPEAKER_00]: It's simply, you know, the fact that Kyron Williams catches passes.
31:43
[SPEAKER_00]: Kyron Williams is more likely to be on in on the goal line than Blake Quorum.
31:46
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't
31:46
[SPEAKER_00]: There's a world where it's like one guy is the pure goal line back, but I do think in a situation where Sean McFay wants to make a decision on who's going to be the guy in there, it's definitely going to be kind of William.
31:56
[SPEAKER_00]: So until we see a little bit more pescatching work, until we see a little bit more goal and work, I do think Blake Wharm needs to be considered a shaky flex, but the higher part of it on the flip side.
32:06
[SPEAKER_00]: We've got Kamis Gadibu coming off of, you know, a touchdown performance, a pretty big yards performance on the ground was not involved in the passing game, unfortunately, but Jackson Dart was just taking advantage completely of the Cowboys linebacker group and their secondary and was just peppering, you know, the corners of the field and stuff like that.
32:22
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, he ran a few less routes in Devon Singletary, which is kind of annoying in a little bit concerning.
32:26
[SPEAKER_00]: It was 18 to 14.
32:27
[SPEAKER_00]: I believe in terms of routes run and Singletary got a lot of targets, but that discrepancy to me is way more noise than it is like, oh, four, four targets for Devon Singletary.
32:36
[SPEAKER_00]: They ran almost the same amount of routes.
32:37
[SPEAKER_00]: So if next week, it's 18 to 14 in favor of Camp Scadabo, and he gets four targets.
32:42
[SPEAKER_00]: People are going to like Holy Shit, Camp Scadabo, 17 carries plus four or five targets.
32:46
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, we're feeling good about that.
32:47
[SPEAKER_00]: So, cam.
32:48
[SPEAKER_00]: Clearly the lead back here.
32:49
[SPEAKER_00]: I will say the one thing that concerns me a little bit is like when Naji Harris returns Does he have a little bit of a role here is he annoying is he a thorn in the side like of course We're not starting any of these guys, but it is just something to think about little food for thought here with guys behind camps God will also don't know if Naji Harris is gonna be active for this one.
33:07
[SPEAKER_00]: He was kind of a surprise and active But Tyrone Tracy did fumble which unfortunately is likely gonna fumble away any more future opportunity He has for the New York Giants.
33:15
[SPEAKER_00]: He will be very good elsewhere in a different
33:17
[SPEAKER_00]: Jersey color come either this season or 2027, but unfortunately time on Tracy will not make these lists for the foreseeable future.
33:25
[SPEAKER_00]: Devin single Terry.
33:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, he's a rather not and not as you we don't even know if he's going to be active.
33:30
[SPEAKER_00]: So that is going to wrap things up for the running back rankings video for this week.
33:34
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I said, the full rankings, all the positions, their exact rankings, flex rankings, all that kind of stuff for week two is available to our
33:45
[SPEAKER_00]: This is nuts.
33:46
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm gonna go real small for you so you guys can see the the full picture.
33:49
[SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully.
33:50
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's about right
33:53
[SPEAKER_00]: go through slowly here.
33:55
[SPEAKER_00]: Pretty self explanatory to me.
33:56
[SPEAKER_00]: This is just like the easiest way to think through rankings in my mind.
34:00
[SPEAKER_00]: Like this is how I think through the guys going into my lineup.
34:03
[SPEAKER_00]: So I put them in these tiers just based off of my intuition of like, of course you're starting in this feels good.
34:08
[SPEAKER_00]: Dubb flex, I think, relative to other options that you're probably gonna have.
34:12
[SPEAKER_00]: And then I'll find comb because a lot of these times I'm just kind of talking through them in real time.
34:16
[SPEAKER_00]: Like even looking now, like Chewbahubra is a Dubb flex, he probably deserves to be in the feels good category.
34:20
[SPEAKER_00]: So these are changes that I'll make in real time.
34:22
[SPEAKER_00]: As we get the injured reports coming out, as we get more practice reports, as we get more information throughout the week, obviously, all of these rankings will be updated in real time for you.
34:31
[SPEAKER_00]: cheapest way to get the membership, which has our rankings in it for three months is if you are a new BEM user brand new, you go up there, sign up with Code BDGE.
