  [SPEAKER_00]: What if everyone's John Los Angeles here?
• 0:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm your host, fantasy and falter day show.
• 0:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: We're doing little just many, many podcast clips for rankings each week now, right now.
• 0:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to be running back rankings.
• 0:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: Running backs, it's crazy.
• 0:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's this one position that just the elite guys just haven't for multiple years now, just haven't gone down, right?
• 0:18
  [SPEAKER_00]: If you want to give us be John Walker, Kyron, Derek Henry, Johnson Taylor, they're all healthy.
• 0:25
  [SPEAKER_00]: Everyone's healthy, CMC's healthy again.
• 0:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know only a couple of the league guys are underperforming taste brown hasn't been great Genki hasn't been great They got both Gentin brown both have bad matchups this week Hopefully maybe since he up the buys kind of figure some stuff out to get chase more involved We do he wouldn't really get rushing touchdowns but The lack of touchdowns has been killing him Genki same thing
• 0:48
  [SPEAKER_00]: is Yard's precarious without what was going to go up with the improved O line.
• 0:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's kind of been he's been pretty mad for playing the Rams at the Rams, pissed off Rams defense, genty.
• 0:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think he's a more of a top 20 play rather than, you know, RB1.
• 1:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: You're still starting him because I mean you took him, but
• 1:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's, you know, is he a cello, is he a guy where maybe somebody would take, take a flyer on him, because of, you know, his, you know, where he was trapped in real life and in fantasy, plus the Raiders actually looked pretty good.
• 1:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe, maybe, right?
• 1:18
  [SPEAKER_00]: But top of the ticket, you know, he had to be John.
• 1:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, he'd be John.
• 1:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't love this week.
• 1:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, you start him no matter what in the eight and league four man league and start to be John.
• 1:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: But
• 1:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: The Niners defense run defenses look great.
• 1:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: We saw they just held the commanders to almost not think they'd gain.
• 1:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: It could run, you know, a lick.
• 1:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: So, you know, we got Walker revenge game playing at Seattle.
• 1:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know, that defense is going to be ready for him.
• 1:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: They've been leading against the run all season, but we also know Walker's going to be pissed.
• 1:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: So, it's a funny week where he's top running back options.
• 1:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: don't have good matchups.
• 1:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: So maybe you're going to have to look a little further down, you know, your team to really get the production, Gibbs playing Green Bay at home up the by is going to be an absolute smash.
• 1:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: Packers are a run funnel, just Dallas decided to pass the entire, you know, second half that we're playing catch up.
• 2:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know, Derek Henry and absolute unbelievable matchup looks like Lamar is still going to be out playing the bank goals.
• 2:10
  [SPEAKER_00]: That's just going to be great.
• 2:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: Kyron was pissed after last week, even though he did play a lot, he said something about he wasn't even involved.
• 2:18
  [SPEAKER_00]: I look for Kyron to have an absolute monster.
• 2:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: If I had to get Kusin be the RB1 after, you know, for next week, I probably pick Kyron.
• 2:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, as a wings ranked top eight long shot.
• 2:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, it'll be hard for not to be gipsed.
• 2:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: If we look further down, like Cuba Hubbard's in a little tough spot, Clank Tampa, it's really, really hard to run on Tampa.
• 2:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: They're a top five kind of, they're going to give you, against the running back.
• 2:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: But you're still playing him because he's got no other kind of competition.
• 2:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: So he's probably going to get his 15, 18 key carries, maybe he only averages me and half a carry.
• 2:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: But he should find his way to 100 all purpose yards.
• 2:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: And then they've been so good moving the ball.
• 2:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully, find the touchdown
• 3:02
  [SPEAKER_00]: Right, they're playing Miami, they're going to be at home versus the dolphins.
• 3:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: Braille Allen has a great, and that might be a time share when Hall gets back.
• 3:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: I would be playing, I don't know, it'd be crazy.
• 3:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: I wouldn't play Braille on over like Ken Focker, but something that extent where the matchup is just so so, so nice.
• 3:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: Ooh, you know, no one has a situation in anyways.
• 3:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: But like, I might play Braille on over Devante Williams, you know, Cowboys at Philly.
• 3:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe they're up, maybe low scoring.
• 3:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: They should be able to run the game.
• 3:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: They're probably gonna be more motivated to run after the massive discrepancy last week.
• 3:36
  [SPEAKER_00]: Bucky Irvingson and great little spot.
• 3:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: I know he's questionable with an injury, but he should play at Carolina, that's just, I think that could be a sneaky shoot out.
• 3:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: It'll be interesting to see if Baker comes back, just hopefully, Baker will be much better targeting the running backs and the, you know, kind of, J.L.M.
• 3:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: has.
• 3:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: So Bucky is not a by-loces, he had that like 180 yard versus Dallas, but I think Bucky's a guy who might just take over for the rest of the season.
• 4:01
  [SPEAKER_00]: One of the most interesting plays Josh Jacobs, obviously nobody likes Jacobs, I hate a Jacobs fantasy before almost pretty much every season, but, you know, there are lines so sucks, they're playing at Detroit, Detroit's really a TV throw on, but, you know, maybe they use Jacobs in 10, 12 carries, and I like Marshall, I hope it's been great, even on the finally scored.
• 4:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: I would be playing Jacobs this week, just because I think Green Bay is going to be
• 4:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: we'll be able to move it on to try.
• 4:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: They should be like six to eight times in the red zone, you know, and set the five and a handful of times.
• 4:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: This was Jacob Eats.
• 4:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think Jacob's is really going to get a hundred yards.
• 4:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe again, ever first career.
• 4:37
  [SPEAKER_00]: But he could have tank carries 45 yards in two touchdowns this week, right?
• 4:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: That'd just be great.
• 4:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: Another guy who's climbing Woody Marks right Montgomery look terrible to Houston obviously Russian game is non-existent once again But Marks is so good in the receiving game.
• 4:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's a little worry some that the Texans have so many options now.
• 4:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: I see I would see Marks's target share probably is gonna drop a bit
• 5:02
  [SPEAKER_00]: But, you know, you could do everything on the Giants, right?
• 5:05
  [SPEAKER_00]: So that's kind of a sneaky little shootout, especially, you know, if Houston's defense is so going to be, you know, terrible as a spin.
• 5:11
  [SPEAKER_00]: So they got to put a 30 to land.
• 5:13
  [SPEAKER_00]: Mark should be, see, a couple gold and gold carries, and that's all we want.
• 5:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: All they got, we paid off, and it should GM's huge.
• 5:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: I love him this week, right?
• 5:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: At the jet, steps defense really is not good, even though it was, but it's just a bad weather, whole of every game.
• 5:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: If it's raining again, my map the buy, maybe they figure some stuff out.
• 5:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: I doubt it, but all you go in is, you know, just such a smash by.
• 5:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: If we're going to go in a little further down, Davey appears on Philly, Philly keeps signing.
• 5:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: Well,
• 5:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: running backs off the wire.
• 5:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: They got jina blue, but it's just mac up Philly's terrible, but Dallas is so bad.
• 5:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: He appears maybe he can get a hundred all-purpose yards right and rushing and receiving.
• 5:56
  [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe you can get a touch down.
• 5:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: I don't really know how that chilly offense wants to operate with so many guys out, but
• 6:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: Tandermakees have a got a big arm, but I could see I can see here striving with a little in a check-down situation where it's Dallas, especially if they have to play catch up, but I think that's going to be a low-score game.
• 6:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: Playcorm looked unbelievable, you know, kind of filling in with Kyron, but he's still not getting it.
• 6:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: That like a 50 50 kind of time sure he was at the end of the last season, you know, it's probably going to be it's going to be kind of how it is.
• 6:24
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's like a 70 30 you can run on Vegas, you know, if this is a ramps kind of bounce back save our season and then maybe they just put put puts up two touchdowns first half throughout 24 seven and then they let cool and take over in the fourth quarter.
• 6:39
  [SPEAKER_00]: What's 10 we're going to do right, Jake eight, obviously, are to Harvey both under four yards for carries.
• 6:44
  [SPEAKER_00]: The offense sucks as a whole.
• 6:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's not getting in the red zone.
• 6:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's not getting the goal line.
• 6:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: They're not scoring touchdowns.
• 6:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: Plus, June, a qualms back.
• 6:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: I could see Harvey and Dobbins getting downgraded and that turning to the rookie Coleman.
• 6:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: Colvin looked great the summer.
• 7:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: Right.
• 7:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: Sean Paine was raving about him.
• 7:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: They need some sort of change to pace.
• 7:04
  [SPEAKER_00]: Colvin's more of a, you know, north south smash by the running back.
• 7:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: Something's gotta change in that offense, and because they look like one of the worst offenses in the league.
• 7:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: Kendry Miller is another guy I really like.
• 7:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: Come on, I think he got a little banged up, plus he's old.
• 7:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: The Saints offense looks terrible, that's the only real problem, at least they're at home.
• 7:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: But I think it's for it.
• 7:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: But I always like Kendry Miller.
• 7:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think he's a sneaky start this week.
• 7:31
  [SPEAKER_00]: I would like Camelberg, RV or Dobbins.
• 7:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: to do looking up, that's probably about it, but he's close to my start, you know, saints can't have shop throwing 40 times anymore with his broken hands is ineffective.
• 7:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: So I could see, minute millers, we're getting a lot of work, 15, 20 carries.
• 7:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: You take a running back doing that, no matter what.
• 7:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: Jordan Mason looks like he's going to return.
• 7:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: So there are Jones who's just meant absolutely sensational a big mess by me.
• 7:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: I thought he was toast The fact he's been able to say healthy and be on RB1 is crazy, but you know They're not going to keep doing that.
• 8:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: Mason is probably going to get his 10 to 12 carries.
• 8:08
  [SPEAKER_00]: Probably going to make both of them obsolete for fantasy But I mean, Mason will get the goal of the goal work, which is great
• 8:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: in the, you know, you can kind of do anything on them, Minnesota's at home.
• 8:18
  [SPEAKER_00]: Obviously that offense is a great, but Mason's more of maybe a flex play this week, you know, let's see how much work they really give him coming, you know, coming off his injury.
• 8:28
  [SPEAKER_00]: Arizona, uh, Jeremiah love probably going to return, which makes Tyler L. Gier kind of, you know, oscillating in.
• 8:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: The thing is, oh, Denver, we thought would have this great defense.
• 8:37
  [SPEAKER_00]: You can really run on them.
• 8:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: So it's actually a pretty good matchup.
• 8:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: So whichever if it's out here, love is starting.
• 8:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: Obviously must start love.
• 8:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: You probably start out here if love is out.
• 8:47
  [SPEAKER_00]: But it's a really good spot, you know, the split.
• 8:50
  [SPEAKER_00]: Again, Arizona has been pretty jekyll or hide.
• 8:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: So you don't we'll see.
• 8:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know, what are the paths going to do, right?
• 8:57
  [SPEAKER_00]: Romandre is clearly the RB1 again.
• 9:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: I guess, you know, he didn't do much last week, but, you know, he's had at least 13 carries in three straight.
• 9:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: He scored into the last three, but he got no passing man work.
• 9:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know, obviously we're playing Romandre over Travey on.
• 9:12
  [SPEAKER_00]: you know, maybe the bears are going to be terrible right on defense.
• 9:16
  [SPEAKER_00]: We don't really know yet, but travians had, you know, well, five carries total of the five sorry targets on the season.
• 9:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: You only had seven carries last week, but he's so tough to play.
• 9:27
  [SPEAKER_00]: I have him everywhere, but like, you know, would I play him over and into giants running backs, you know, you know, right?
• 9:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: They released not Jay Harris, so they got scattered who got nothing in time and Tracy who I
• 9:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: Rico Dattles another interesting one.
• 9:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: I come back from injury.
• 9:46
  [SPEAKER_00]: It was seven for 40 last week It's a pretty good spot for him right playing at the Saints and see fences absolutely terrible But Warren is the guy, right?
• 9:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: I didn't talk about Warren at all because he's just such a lock, right?
• 9:58
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's a top-hand
• 9:59
  [SPEAKER_00]: play a tweak and the last week he didn't really get involved he only the two two receptions each and we're 28 yards working carries for 50 which is the worst game in the season but Ampa is a pass phone right you just you don't want to start running back versus Tampa.
• 10:15
  [SPEAKER_00]: Two but we talked about you know they're playing Tampa but it's fine because at least he's the only one.
• 10:20
  [SPEAKER_00]: Certainly if it's like a time share versus you know an elite rush do you like that you want to stay away.
• 10:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: If we go be a little further down here, guys, I mean, BAM night did a lot last week, but if you remind love is back, you know, that's toast, Martian Lloyd.
• 10:34
  [SPEAKER_00]: He'll probably be relatively, you know, he'll be an inoperable with with Josh Jacobs back.
• 10:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: My Washington, right?
• 10:42
  [SPEAKER_00]: It's all rookie, but if genties not doing anything, you don't want to trust him.
• 10:45
  [SPEAKER_00]: Brian Robinson Jr. You know, certainly not person Niners, right?
• 10:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's maybe at home versus the bat team.
• 10:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: He might get
• 10:54
  [SPEAKER_00]: uh... is it's pretty it's pretty pretty gross down down the line here right uh... manual wilson's kind of outside that top thirty uh... you said would twenty one twenty fourteen carries not involved in the passing game but uh... you know at kick to their playing at home to kc you know i'd like him over you know any of these other up you know brand robocent crazy scataboo roshan
• 11:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know, I mean, it wasn't a rebel Rico.
• 11:22
  [SPEAKER_00]: You know, I probably like Wilson.
• 11:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: I know he's going to get the work.
• 11:25
  [SPEAKER_00]: I take him over probably either Minnesota back because we used to know how that's kind of split yet.
• 11:30
  [SPEAKER_00]: Anyone else here, I didn't talk about that.
• 11:32
  [SPEAKER_00]: I really, really like.
• 11:35
  [SPEAKER_00]: Drone the Taylor at Minnesota's interesting because obviously obviously you're starting him right he was with the RB6 last week we touched down 21 for 94 also that is best for seeding game but Minnesota's just crazy the end of the offense is terrible I could see them getting 10 points
• 11:52
  [SPEAKER_00]: Well, there's obviously no world where you don't start caler, but I would have, I would, you know, if I was doing an actual ranking as I probably have, and I'm like, you know, 15th this week, right, where everyone else doesn't top 10, but again, you know, it's just the matchup, the matchup for the matchups and you can't always, you just, you know, can't always get in the playing, I guess it would be the best, right?
• 12:14
  [SPEAKER_00]: Anyone else, I really like Quintchown.
• 12:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: Judkins looks like he's going to play, right?
• 12:19
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's had 14, he had 14 characters or 44, which is in great matchup isn't great, but attendees, after you pretty good.
• 12:26
  [SPEAKER_00]: I definitely like Judkin to suit me, he's going to play, right?
• 12:29
  [SPEAKER_00]: What's he's what he's limited, Angle, Angle, he should be fine.
• 12:33
  [SPEAKER_00]: He should be moved up the list, I guess sharpening for turning, I mean.
• 12:40
  [SPEAKER_00]: I wouldn't even Rothster, Sherbin, I guess, still probably play him over Wilson once he gets ramped out, but then I wouldn't play Sherbin in his week in our office any circumstance.
• 12:49
  [SPEAKER_00]: First came back after an ACL.
• 12:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: It was kind of a hit a long kind of ramp up.
• 12:53
  [SPEAKER_00]: Not just a busy break, right?
• 12:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: So I think time share may be coming, but this week I'd say I'd be shocked if Wilson again, at least his 15 carries.
• 13:03
  [SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
• 13:06
  [SPEAKER_00]: Lastly, this is a boring old Tony Pollard, right?
• 13:09
  [SPEAKER_00]: Pollard is just, he's got 14 carries in every game since except for week one, but he's only got one touchdown on the season.
• 13:17
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's averaging four yards per carry, which is exactly what you think he would do, right?
• 13:21
  [SPEAKER_00]: So he stopped 30 running back on the season.
• 13:23
  [SPEAKER_00]: He's gross, you know, I would only really be playing match of the pendant, you know, playing Cleveland is not a good match up, so follows the guy who's getting her be one work, but would I maybe try to sneak rego dattle in over him.
• 13:38
  [SPEAKER_00]: I might be something I could do right.
• 13:41
  [SPEAKER_00]: I think that'll be getting more and more work.
• 13:43
  [SPEAKER_00]: Obviously, General Warren is elite, but if he would doubt it was 7 for 40, 5.7 yards per carry against Tampa, what's he going to do versus Saints, right?
• 13:51
  [SPEAKER_00]: So maybe he gets 10 carries, maybe 60 yards, maybe he scores a touchdown, right?
• 13:55
  [SPEAKER_00]: I just I think that's going to be a better and what Paul could do.
• 14:00
  [SPEAKER_00]: Okay, that's going to be it for our running
