So let's jump into it. like, screw subscribe and share wherever you listen to this. It really helps us out. Leave a review and kick it off, Danny. Loser X2: Alright, post Halloween ghost of Brendan Iuk could do to his shenanigans and failure to report to the 49ers the they voided his twenty-seven million dollar guaranteed money in twenty twenty-six. 7.3 million still hits the dead cap. IUK has hired agent Drew Rosenhaus to try and apply for reinstatement. If he does play, he would make the base sell. Of 1.2 million with 2.7 million signing bonus. And if he gets injured, then the 49ers will owe him 26 million. He's technically under contract for the next two years for almost 60 more million dollars. If they cut him, they have to take a larger cat cap hit. Stribling and cowing are both returning from IR. He a he's allowed back at the Forty Niners facility on Friday. Some w just so weird that whole saga Champ of the House: Right. Yeah, it is. OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah. Did you see the, that the reporters asked several of the 49ers stars, hey, so what do you think about Brandon Ayute coming back now that he contacted Agent Rosenhouse? And you should see the blank stares. It is not going to be a big welcoming committee for him. Champ of the House: Yeah, it doesn't sound like it. Well you gotta hire one of the best agents to get you back in at something, right? So OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah. Okay. Champ of the House: Interesting. OverThinker in Cheif: You know what, on brighter spot of news, Chicago Stadium outlook continues to gain traction in Arlington Heights, Illinois. Illinois lawmakers will be voting as early as this month to keep the team local. The Bears organization would be required to come up with private financing themselves, and then the stadium would be publicly owned. Whatchamacallit, this public ownership keep it exempt from property tax and it's kind of like a win-win for everybody all around and so this seems like the number one option right now and so Champ of the House: Yeah, second publicly owned team to be like the Packers, both in the same division. Boy, would that be interesting. OverThinker in Cheif: Seriously, yeah, so it's looking good. Champ of the House: Interesting. Okay. let's see. Caddox came out with a logoless cleat for Caleb to wear. Chass noticed that during the game. She's like, hey, he didn't spat his shoes. And I'm like, he wouldn't have gotten by the inspectors, so you know, he must he must have changed his shoes. Good for him, 'cause he can avoid retaliation from the NFL. Look at that. And they get to keep their word Loser X2: So many more players. Champ of the House: it absolutely helps out because they're spreading their it's it's like free public it's pre publicalization for their company. That dude's wearing a shoe. Loser X2: Mm, mm, mm, mm. OverThinker in Cheif: Big time. Champ of the House: I wanna wear his shoe down too. And they don't have to pay OverThinker in Cheif: Yep. Champ of the House: the ten million or hundred million dollars to the NFL for being part of it, right? So it's OverThinker in Cheif: Mm-hmm. Champ of the House: a workaround. You know the NFL's pissed off at that one. OverThinker in Cheif: yeah. Loser X2: No logo. Forty Niners were set to finalize a trade with the Vikings for Juan Jennings, but he would not pick up the phone or return their calls. He said he did Champ of the House: Damn. Loser X2: not want to go back to San Francisco. Champ of the House: Yeah. Woof. OverThinker in Cheif: Yup. He has said nothing, but people around have said he's snubbed any effort the 49ers had to call him. And Kyle Shanahan, when asked about it, he said that, well, Juwan seems to be happy in Minnesota, and that's fine. He made the call. Champ of the House: What else do you say to that one? OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah. Michael Wilson of the Arizona Cardinals. We've noticed he hasn't been putting up the massive plays he was before Champ of the House: Hello. OverThinker in Cheif: and that's because he's been playing with two broken ribs. He says it's really painful but he's paid a lot of money so he'll play even if he can only give 60 percent. Champ of the House: as good as that, you wanna get your paycheck, you're now hurting your team because you're not playing to your full potential. And the next guy behind you would be. OverThinker in Cheif: Is he really hurting the team though? Champ of the House: Well, that I'm not really. But I'm just saying in a normal team situation, that's usually what happens. So I would think of the team in that kind of situation, I'd want to like, Hey, you what? Let this guy well I could rest a week. 'Cause who who else? Yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah, because Kendrick borns out for the rest of the season now. So as a Trey McBride holder, I appreciate his dedication to take defensive looks away. Champ of the House: Shouldering the everything. man, shouldering the the the everything of the team for him. Yeah. You and OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah. Champ of the House: you and Robbie are extremely happy with that one, I'm sure. So and any other Trey McBride out their owner, right? So OverThinker in Cheif: That's right. Champ of the House: well speaking of unhappiness, Kansas City is making it really hard for Swifty fans to keep supporting their team as they sign their next pop most popular kicker for women. Justin Tucker, the motherfucker, will be returning to Marison Buddha. For Harrison Butker's starting job. I that was just a straight hate drop to fucking go wave him after that miss of a forty was a forty six or forty fifty four. It was a fifty four yard field goal that he missed and then OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah. Champ of the House: it like that's a straight you know what? Fuck you, dude. You s you're just get out of here. OverThinker in Cheif: You Champ of the House: I don't see that any other way. OverThinker in Cheif: Hahaha Loser X2: He's been so good for them for so long and he misses one field goal and they're like, fuck you. Kickers don't matter. Champ of the House: Yeah. Right? And and and somebody threw they're they were trying to throw a stat that he's been a little less OverThinker in Cheif: Yep. Champ of the House: since twenty twenty five, but I'm like, his little less is like way better than most people's kicking stats. So you most of the league is just like, Cheers, thanks, who's who's gonna get this first one on waivers? OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah. Yeah. Champ of the House: Justin Tucker. here, there's a good kicker, but talk about somebody that you bring back to that circling bad allegations of stuff. Well Loser X2: Yeah. Chris Christian Watson, OverThinker in Cheif: Well, I knew. Champ of the House: I'll take the guy over here throwing throwing Bible verses around and shit and saying women need Loser X2: Mm. OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah. Champ of the House: to be in the kitchen cooking sandwiches. OverThinker in Cheif: Well they said that Justin Tucker was only missing kicks because of the fact that Champ of the House: He ain't missing kisses. Loser X2: We were he he had a pulled growing, is that what you're saying? OverThinker in Cheif: he knew the allegations were going to come out. And so because he had that looming over him, he didn't have his mind on the game. Now that everything's Champ of the House: Mm-hmm. OverThinker in Cheif: out there, I imagine he's gonna be a good kicker again, he's not someone I would want on my team for... I mean the same same with like Josh Jacobs Which I forgot to put in the news all at it right here More allegations have come out Loser X2: More allegations. OverThinker in Cheif: and Champ of the House: Mm-hmm. OverThinker in Cheif: more videos Might be released as well. So he might play this coming week But after that they're looking at a full he may have played his last game or it might be next game and that could be it for him. Champ of the House: Mm-hmm. Yep. Yep. Once those two other women or two or three other women came out. Now the lawyer kicked off some in defense and said they were old allegations and it was stipulation. There they was situational about each one and they went into depth, but like yeah, you know, you know he's in trouble. this dude's in trouble. And damn it, I OverThinker in Cheif: yeah. Champ of the House: paid a third round pick for him and Marvin Harrison. I'm in swindled OverThinker in Cheif: Hahaha Loser X2: Yeah, you just don't yeah. Champ of the House: Swind off. Loser X2: Jared Verse becomes the f the NFL's poster boy for fuck around and find out. The Pittsburgh Steelers O line had their way with him as the Steelers rocked the Browns. He was even suplexed by Mason McCormick, who will be suspended again for punching him in the nuts on the way down. Yeah, he's certainly Champ of the House: It was a hammer. OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah! Champ of the House: He brought the hammer. Loser X2: Pissing people off in the AFC North there. McCorm verse. No, that shouldn't have been a suspension. OverThinker in Cheif: I really don't think that should have been in a suspension. He was just finishing the suplex Champ of the House: And OverThinker in Cheif: that was just where his hand happened to be. Loser X2: I agree completely. Champ of the House: They should have s said it was for the suplex, because you're not allowed to suplex, so Loser X2: He was not trying to do the yeah. He was not trying to do the massage table Justin Tucker. That's what you know, it's he had him horizontal Champ of the House: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Good point. Good point. Loser X2: and flat in the air. That wasn't the part of it that OverThinker in Cheif: Alright. Champ of the House: Just just a random connection. That's all. Loser X2: So Champ of the House: Yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: Now, in sad news, Jack Campbell, linebacker of the Lions, had a terrifying injury to his spine. He had two plays in a row that were bad for his neck and spine and had to be removed on a stretcher. Details were slow to come out but he made a statement that he can move all of his lower extremities and that he's working on Dexterity with his upper extremities and that He's healing fast and that he's hoping to come back sooner rather than later. So that's news coming out. We just always hope that they're doing what's best for the player and he gets well as soon as possible and that he gets right, most importantly of all. Champ of the House: Absolutely. Our thoughts and prayers are always with the player. So yeah, absolutely. Roquan Smith is being suspended indefinitely for a brutal face mask to jaw on Josh Allen, nearly taking his head off. Yes, he grabbed him too. That was OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah. Champ of the House: that was that was aggressive. That was something. OverThinker in Cheif: Now for people who are in sleeper, this news hasn't hit at all and they still have him as in with no news on this. So keep an eye on whether or not the suspension is actually going through if you're playing an IDP league because yeah, I couldn't find this news on sleeper even though was out there elsewise. Champ of the House: Yeah. It i it could be a Sunday morning surprise if he just goes straight to out or suspended. So yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: exactly or or they put a designation on from game nine on or something like that so we'll see what happens Loser X2: All right Excuse me. CJ West gave DeForest Buckner his old number back out of respect. Buckner was blown away by his generosity and promised that West will be taken care of. Swimming with the fishes. OverThinker in Cheif: Yep, so that's always cool. Helps for uniters because now they can bust out the old DeForest Buckner jerseys just like new. Champ of the House: Mm. OverThinker in Cheif: And so I wonder if the 49ers will cut CJ West a deal since they still have to get rid of the 99 inventory for CJ West. But yeah, it should be all good that way. But Buckner says he's going to take care of him, so that's cool. Loser X2: Yeah, he's probably gotta buy the rest of his stock and OverThinker in Cheif: Mm-hmm. Loser X2: give him a truck or something like that. OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah, switching numbers in season is frowned upon for the NFL. yeah, I think this one they're okay with. Devontae Smith, he's the one that should have been hiding in the coverts because he was sitting on the sidelines during the Eagles game. And when his teammate was hit out of bounds, he was also hit. And looks like he may have set back his hamstring injury. as he was grabbing his leg and wincing on the sidelines. Not what you want to see. Champ of the House: rolled right onto him. Yeah. It was a no, it was a c that was a collision for sure. Loser X2: Yeah. Champ of the House: let's see. Falcons sophomore edge James Pierce Jr. has been reinstated and will play versus the Bengals in Madrid. Cool. Very nice. Good for him. OverThinker in Cheif: I'll go get him. Champ of the House: Ooh, firing firing. Loser X2: Saints fire their run game coordinator. Champ of the House: So is this do we have second coach fired right now? Because we've already had a coach fire, right? We've already had a coach firing. A crazy? A crazy? OverThinker in Cheif: I don't know. Champ of the House: I thought we already had a hmm. I'll have to look in I'll Loser X2: Did we have a Champ of the House: have to I thought it was a minor position firing already. I'll have to look at we wasn't typed into our podcast, but I think we've had one already a week or so ago that they let a position go. And I was like, Whoa, whoa's a surprise. OverThinker in Cheif: We had a GM fired. Champ of the House: That, yes, we had GM fired. I yeah, I'm just trying to keep track of commun of positions firing because it's always mid season firings are always hilarious. OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah, always check out the new position openings. Jason Kelsey actually was pissed off about the run game coordinator firing because that guy used to be the run game coordinator for the Eagles and he said he was a phenomenal run game coordinator. So any teams out there with a terrible run game, maybe Champ of the House: Go get OverThinker in Cheif: Green Bay, maybe Minnesota, they Champ of the House: Mm-hmm. OverThinker in Cheif: could look at him as an option. Caleb Williams made history breaking Aaron Rodgers record of consecutive games with 20 plus completions and less than one interception at 36 games in a row and counting That's pretty awesome Loser X2: Cool. Mm-hmm. Champ of the House: That is. I wanted to pull up stats because I wanted to pull up Caleb Williams and we wanna have a weekly Caleb tracker. OverThinker in Cheif: Hahaha Yeah. Champ of the House: I thought of doing a weekly cause to see if he hits his project. we're as we're following along, we all made predictions that he would break four thousand or even five, some of us. So we want to make sure this Loser X2: Me. That's me. Champ of the House: man breaks his four thousand, you know. So let's see. he currently is twelve hundred and sixty seven on the season. So step it up, buddy. Step it up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Loser X2: He's got time. He missed four games, so three games. Champ of the House: But hey, six touchdowns to one interception. That's a pretty good ratio. I'm liking it. And he's got Loser X2: Yep. He's still got time for all of those. Champ of the House: hundred and twenty nine rushing with two touchdowns. So I accept. I accept. I accept. Okay. Loser X2: Very nice. Sam Darnold went out with a quad injury and has also found to have a rib injury from the second play of the game, giving him a lot of pain. Lots of pain. He could be out until after the bye week if Drew Lock plays well. Champ of the House: Anybody else see he got put up on trade block in our league? Loser X2: Did see that. OverThinker in Cheif: Man it was it was not a good week for quarterbacks Lamar Jackson went out with a broken thumb and That's on his throwing hand. So they're not sure on the timetable on that as well Because they're hoping there's no ligament damage that may take a little bit longer Snoop Huntley went out soon after with a season-ending turf toe injury and so the Ravens will be rolling out Joe Feniano. And he'll start Sunday versus the Jags. They also signed Austin Reed, who was the number one quarterback in the XFL last year. He's shown to be really proficient, but the rules are out are also very different in the XFL, so he needs time. And Keaton's Slovis, who's been on a couple practice squads most recently for the Green Bay Packers. So we'll see what happens, but whoever is the Jags defense this weekend. Lord have mercy on the people they're facing because they Champ of the House: Yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: should rack up some points. Champ of the House: Mm-hmm. OverThinker in Cheif: Hahaha! Champ of the House: Yeah. Loser X2: Here you go, King. Just run over. Champ of the House: That's hilarious. Right. OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah. Champ of the House: all right. Something to watch this week with the CMC was designated as limited today and did not practice Wednesday today. So pay attention to him throughout Thursday and Friday, because usually if somebody is missing those designated practices Friday it's very unlikely that they will play for you on Sunday because sh Saturdays usually short in practices. So yeah, just keep an eye on those designations through the week. OverThinker in Cheif: another key one I missed was Amanra St. Brown also has... Champ of the House: yes. Yeah, he was limited, yes. OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah, he may have a cracked rib. He's a tough son of a gun, so he might play anyway. But just keep an eye on that one as well. Champ of the House: Yep. Yep. God, there was someone else I was talking about that had cracked ribs as well. not one of the two we had already mentioned. I'll have to think about it, but okay. Dale, take us away. Loser X2: Alright, our first battle, Plague of Anubis versus the Victorious Valkyries. Household battle, husband versus wife, OverThinker in Cheif: Mm-hmm. Loser X2: the bet on who will do the chores for the week. The Curse of Anubis was in full force this week. Plague of Anubis takes down the victorious Valkyries two hundred and thirty point two six to two hundred and point nine eight, winning by twenty-nine point eight points in a matchup packed with explosive performances, defensive heroics, and one absolutely ridiculous multi-interception performance. Plague's offense was led by Tony Pollard once again who bulldozed his way Champ of the House: Woo. Loser X2: to thirty-five point four points with a hundred and thirty-seven rushing and receiving yards and two touchdowns. Josh Jacobs, in possibly his last game ever, added twenty-five Champ of the House: Mm-hmm. Loser X2: point nine points with two touchdowns of his own. Well Pat Farramuth found the end zone twice to contribute thirteen point three. But the Real monster of the week was Amani Hooker who hauled in three interceptions and finished with an incredible forty-one point one points. The Los Angeles Rams defense also came up with a huge 29.8 points, including two interceptions and a forced fumble. That's a whole lot of chaos unleashed on one lineup. The Valkyries didn't go down quietly. Their Jacksonville defense was downright terrifying, put up 36.5 points with a defensive touchdown, two interceptions, and four sacks. Jordan Battle added 29 points after 12 tackles and two pass breakups. Well, Ramondre, no. This time it was a different kind of supporting cast, with Jalen Daniels contributing 17.88, and Malik Washington added seventeen point four. Unfortunately, Jonathan Taylor's 6.3 bubble wrap outing and quiet performance from Darren Waller left some serious holes. And OverThinker in Cheif: Mm-hmm. Loser X2: then and then there's the bench. The Valkyries had Shamari DK sitting there with 33.4 points, what could have made a major difference if he had been in the lineup. Plague also had Land McConkie's 11.6 points winning reserve, but the real story was Valkyries leaving a potential game-changing performance on the sidelines. Plague of Anubis survives a monster defensive showing from the Valkyries thanks to Polly. Touchdowns, Jacobs consistency, previous consistency, and Hooker's three pick masterpiece. And the Valkyries OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah, that was amazing. Loser X2: brought the Thunder, but Champ of the House: Absolutely. Loser X2: Anubis brought the underworld. This week the gods of fantasy football collected their offering. Congratulations, John. Champ of the House: Yeah, I I'm sad she didn't make it back. She's I hear the baby crying in the other room. But this was a a fun battle in the household this weekend. Yeah, we were we were at Disneyland, we were having a blast, we made a whole thing. This it was good us you know versus each other. We try not to pay attention too much to the phones so it didn't ruin OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah. Champ of the House: Disneyland, but you know, I was getting a lot of notifications about touchdowns and points and interceptions and yeah, look at that on my phone shit. I'm not supposed to look at that. What do you mean game just started and I got a sixty three points from seventeen points from Tony Pollard already? It's only three minutes into the game. That's amazing, like OverThinker in Cheif: you Champ of the House: Yeah, poor chass. but she did say that she's cursing all of us, not just me. she's gonna bring out the witchcraft from two seasons ago and use her children if she has to, something like that, so Loser X2: Mm-hmm. OverThinker in Cheif: You know what, if the Titans are smart enough to keep using Shmeri DK like they were last year, even though it's all new, coaches, and, you know, he's a hell of a weapon, and, if he can keep scoring between 24 to 30 points a week like he was last year, she'll be in pretty damn good shape. Champ of the House: Yeah, I think so too. See I had a drop prepared. She had me have a p drop prepared for her and then we can move on, so she was OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah Loser X2: Mm. OverThinker in Cheif: I'll bust out my counters, don't worry. Champ of the House: And then she's she said we were all supposed to burn, burn, burn. So yeah, good luck OverThinker in Cheif: Hahaha Champ of the House: with that one. Love you, honey. Yeah. Loser X2: I've been burning. I've only won two games. OverThinker in Cheif: You Champ of the House: Hey, I'm just happy that was my third game. Rock on. It was the best third win ever. Loser X2: I'm toiling down here. OverThinker in Cheif: Alright, speaking of stacking on losses, Loser X2: Yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: Farathragna exacts their vengeance on my little brother in this 33.22 victory, beating Apache Gorilla's... Champ of the House: You're a stepping stone too. OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah, 236.85 Loser X2: I'm just a path. Hmm. OverThinker in Cheif: to 203.63. Daniel starts off hot with the QB position. Kirk Cousins put up 36.18 points versus Ali's big fat goose egg with Lamar Jackson, who returned only to break his thumb. Yeah, That wasn't the only player on ollie's team to put up a disappointing subtotal Will rychard put up just one point bjohn robinson was the next lowest point total for the for vengeance at 12.4 From there The point totals climbed dramatically herald fannon jalen warren dante meyers Guy Richeran for Cincinnati with his cool story Washington commanders defense and Jacob Parrish as well as Anthony Hill jr. And Ernest Jones in the IDP slots were all top scorers and contributed to turn these gorillas into mist Even Champ of the House: Mm-hmm. OverThinker in Cheif: if Daniel played his optimal lineup Ali still would have run one by 12 points having Nothing Changed, Nothing. Champ of the House: I like what you did there with the girls in the mist. OverThinker in Cheif: Thank you, sir. Champ of the House: Sounds good. Yeah. yeah, yeah, it was that's that's more like a not a stepping stone, but like a welcome mat step here. Loser X2: Yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: Ha Champ of the House: I'm sad because I was gonna pick him in the pick'ems and I was like, nah, and I looked at your roster, I was like, I'm liking your matchups. You know what I've noticed? every week that I pick an opp opposing person going against Ollie, he wins. The three weeks I've actually picked him, he's lost. I'm gonna start pecking all I now. I know the magic. I know the magic. So yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: Hahaha! Champ of the House: I know what I'm doing today. Okay. OverThinker in Cheif: There you go. Champ of the House: our third battle, another surprise. In our third battle of the evening, we have another visit to Anonke's Temple of BDSM. He's earned his name back, everybody. And after a truly miserable start to the season, and I mean truly miserable, the temple has finally found its footing. Six straight losses only to come back and take down one of the league's best. Owl formation has been shot out of the sky, crashing behind the temple walls and landing right on one of Robbie's favorite torture devices. 217.36 to 205.24, a 12.12, 12.12 point victory to the temple. making this week's matchup our closest battle and leaving Allen holding the dreaded Spartan Shield Award. Now, Al formation wasn't exactly flying high this week, with only three players scoring more than 16 points, and most of the roster putting up in the single digits. Alan managed just the sixth highest score in the league. Thankfully, Bashul Tutin came to play with a monster 33-point performance. Alex Singleton followed up with 28, and Patrick Queen chipped in another 27.5. And that's enough to keep the temple from taking control. Leading the charge for the temple was Drake May with a monstrous 35.56 points. Braylon Allen, 30.5, and the before-mentioned, aforementioned Trey McBride contributed 25.25. And this week, it wasn't just offensive players doing the heavy lifting. The Temples defenses showed up in a big way. Demetrius Knight put up 15. Newly acquired Jeffrey Simmons to the Bears got 19. And Devin Bush added another 15, which I think he had a play taken away from a penalty that would have been a lot higher, too, if I remember correctly. It was OverThinker in Cheif: yeah. Champ of the House: something Devin did in the play that pulled up. Byron Young had a rough afternoon getting. beaten by the Chargers, managing just three points. And there was more than enough firepower elsewhere to finish the job though. Congratulations, Robbie, on your second win of the season. Six losses in the rear view mirror and the temple is finally showing signs of life. Keep it up, Robbie, the gods have finally answered your prayers, although I'm not sure anyone wants to know what you had to sacrifice to get them to listen. OverThinker in Cheif: I'd like to dub this one spread eagle over the Spartan shield Champ of the House: Man, that's a good one. Spread Allen, yeah shit. Loser X2: Bread owl. OverThinker in Cheif: You Loser X2: And spread owl over this Barton shield. Champ of the House: Yeah, that's a yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: That's right. Champ of the House: That's a good one. That's a good one. Loser X2: Whoo hoo. Champ of the House: Who th who indeed? Loser X2: Very nice. Alright, our next battle was two hosts from last week. Mario very courageously called himself the host slayer last week. And those words were promptly picked up by the fantasy gods to be shoved down his throat. As Champ of the House: Yes. Loser X2: the Kuiper Belt soldiers win this hard fought battle. Taking down Smitey Mighty Bastones 198.35 to 183.21 a 15.4 point victory. Smitey f had a few explosive performances, but the soldiers brought more of a balanced attack and held the line when it mattered. The soldiers were led by T. Higgins, who absolutely torched Cincinnati's OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah. Loser X2: secondary opposition with 155 yards and two touchdowns for a massive 36 points. Kyler Murray added 29.2 points. TJ Hawkinson chipped in with 18.8 with a touchdown. And Chase Bound finally contributing something with 16.5 despite losing a fumble. On defense, Marcus Jones and Carson Sweetinger helped keep the points coming. It was a strong team effort with Higgins leading the charge like a man on an asteroid. Jose's boy too. Smitey Mighty Bass Owns had its own heavyweight performance from DeAndre Swift, who punched in three touchdowns for thirty-three point eight points. Tucker Kraft added twenty-one point eight. Tyler Bass Bass delivered twenty points with a perfect kicking performance. And Gregory R Gregory Rousseau contributed nineteen points on defense. But the lineup had some major weak sponsors. Jacoby Brissett managed just 4.56 points. Trey Tucker was held scoreless, and the offense couldn't quite keep up with Kuyper's production. And then there's the bench where Smitey had maybe having some nightmares. Emmett Johnson scored 32.9 points, and Sam Darnold put up 29.92, both sitting unused. Either could have changed the complexion of this matchup, and Johnson alone would have been enough to swing the results. Kuiper Belt, meanwhile, had no comparable bench explosions waiting in reserve. Kuiperbelt soldiers earned the win behind Higgins' monster performance. And a well rounded lineup, Smitey had the firepower to win, but leaving nearly sixty three points on the bench is the kind of decision that gets you summoned before the fantasy football tribunal. The soldiers survive while Smitey is left wondering what might have been as we all do way too often. OverThinker in Cheif: Man I was so close on this I got this close to dropping brissette to pick up a defensive player to get ahead of my bye weeks and Sam Darnold would have been in and Emmett Johnson I kept trading in with Trey Tucker back and forth back and forth over and over again until I went to bed and That would have made such a huge difference, but we make choices Champ of the House: Yes. Overtinkering. Loser X2: Indeed. Champ of the House: And that's why I love Overtinker in Chief. So well done. Well done. Yeah, it's a good name. I d I'm a I'm a I'm a slave to the Overtinker myself. Daniel, good catch with the swap of the awards. I don't know what week it happened because it wasn't this season. I went through all this season and we somehow did it I it's been since last season. Somewhere they swapped in a week and they've just been that since then. So Loser X2: Mm. Champ of the House: 'Cause I usually go into the last docket and just I've always wanted to change I don't know. I liked our old ones. I know I yeah, yeah, yeah. We need new names for the awards, guys. Any listeners out there, give some suggestions, write in. We can totally use OverThinker in Cheif: We'll figure it out. Champ of the House: I know, I know. But he caught it. He caught it. He said it in the text that I had swapped him. He totally fucking Loser X2: Mm-hmm. Champ of the House: knew it. I'm like, I don't know. Let's not copy him from there. How did the doc last week? I went to one sixty three. One sixty three had him swapped. So last season was yeah, somewhere in last season. So good good catch, Danny. Good catch. Yeah. Yeah, no. Loser X2: Mm hmm. Took me long enough. OverThinker in Cheif: Alright, winner of the appropriately named Massacre of the Week is in our next match up here. Vince and Martin have got to be the most bipolar teams in the league. Both Champ of the House: Mm. OverThinker in Cheif: teams had posted a goose egg and each team also had top scorers at their position. Joe Burrow was the difference here, scoring a 50-burger. But James Cook, the Steelers defense, and Jeremy Chin also helped dominate the Aztec Warriors in the biggest massacre of the week by almost the same amount of points that Joe Burrow made. Brock Bowers, valiant effort at 33.2 points. Puka Nakuwa putting up 21. And the Buccaneers defense in the sloppy rain with 27.4 points weren't enough to make up for Sam Darnold's exit Lamar Jackson's broken thumb and being let down by their IDP players Caleb didn't have to do a lot against Seattle's defense, leading to another low point total. They had a stellar run game and handoffs were the name of that game going in. All around a bad week for Aztec Warriors as the value of his kicker and an elite receiver may have even lower value next week. Ze Flowers could be on the could be a nice bench hold. Loser X2: Mm. OverThinker in Cheif: Seeing how the backup quarterbacks do. And we'll see, I have to see whether Jason Myers does well with Drew Lock at the helm at the same time. Could be a rough set of weeks Champ of the House: Mm-hmm. OverThinker in Cheif: for Martin going forward. As for Vince, Champ of the House: Mm. OverThinker in Cheif: he gets Isaiah likely back next week and he has to wonder if JJ McCarthy will continue the same kind of targets Jamis Winston was feeding him or if Champ of the House: Yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: he's going to continue doing his long bombs. Olly Gordon has been an extremely strong ad for him in a surprisingly competent Miami offense. is this a preview of things to come? Certainly Vince hopes so, and we'll have to see. Champ of the House: Hm absolutely. Yeah. all interesting takes too because I Isaiah likely, I think, at the point before his in he had exited his injury, it was tight end two, if I remember correctly. He was doing so well. And OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah. Champ of the House: but different quarterbacks, different playstyles, mm neighbors and OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah, McCarthy's problem has always been touch, so the close throws. so we'll see. Yeah. Champ of the House: Mhm. Yeah. The dink and dunks, the things that a tight end are really good at, right? So OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah. Champ of the House: Should be interesting. Okay. in one of our battles for the championship, Rusty the Hobo pulled a shiv and took down the one in a back alley beatdown. 200.2 to 163.04, a 37.16 point annihilation. Jess takes her second loss of the season at the hands of the boy who can't stop wheeling and dealing. Justin's squad came ready for OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah Champ of the House: war. And they brought the whole arsenal. Yep. helm by Geno Smith with 22.2 points, but led by his tag superstar, Jameer Gibbs, who dropped a massive 32.4 points. This team was firing on all cylinders. Dak Prescott showed up with you know his old age and with a number of ten point four or I don't know who who needs a good quarterback anyway. But Kyron Williams chipped in with 17.1. Saquon Barkley added 15. And on the defensive unit, Olacoon was his tackle king up to 20 points. Nick Bolton had a pretty good game, 15 points. And when your defense is putting up numbers like that, somebody's getting dragged into the alley. So on the other side of the battlefield, Jess's team didn't just stumble, it completely fell apart. Her troops retreated all the way to Hades' hang hangout, and they were officially banished, earning this week's lowest score of the week award. the one shining beacon in the otherwise dark battlefield was Patrick Mahomes, who dropped a monster 36.34 points. Unfortunately, he apparently forgot to bring the rest of the team with him. Her kicker was a stud though. Brandon Aubrey was the next bright spot, booting 16 points for her. Sadly, no other player, not even the Seahawks defense, crossed 16 points. That was 15.3 from the defense. Garrett Wilson put up 14. Amon Raw was 11.5. And Kyle Hamilton, her defensive stud, was her high scorer with 14. That's a whole lot of underperforming firepower when you're fighting for the championship. So wrong time to start falling apart, Jess. Ask my wife. congratulations, Justin, on a huge win. This is a huge, absolutely huge win. Keep wheeling and dealing. Keep dealing, dude, and knock down everybody. Cause dude, you've got this and you're polishing a trophy, whether it's first, second, or third. So I'm happy for that. So yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: Hmm Champ of the House: The hobo has spoken. The one has fallen, and the road to the championship just got a whole lot bloodier. Thanks for marching more. Thanks for marching mortals. Love it. Hell yeah, dude. Yeah. That's a rough one. OverThinker in Cheif: He knocked her pretty damn hard too. Most of her team's unquestionable now. Almost her entire team. Loser X2: Beat down. Champ of the House: That's a rough one. And I know they're they're with this week and everything going on, they're not watching their teams. Loser X2: Yeah. Champ of the House: So gonna be a rough week for the Lopez household, I think, this week. Loser X2: Yeah. P injuries dependent too. Alright. Next Champ of the House: Segway into Segway into OverThinker in Cheif: Yes. Loser X2: battle. Saving Ryan's privates didn't just win this matchup, they stormed the gates and claimed the highest score of the entire week with thirty seven point eight one points. Uncle Rob earns the title of Conqueror of the Week, putting up a performance worthy of the fantasy gods. Josh Allen led the charge with 32.6 points, while Bucky Irving, Jamar Chase, and Chuba Hubbard each piled up more than twenty-seven. Chase was especially lethal with 144 receiving yards and a touchdown. Even the supporting cast joined in the battle, with C Jake JK Coleman adding twenty three point one points. And the Bears defense delivering 25.55. This was a full team assault. The Hail Marys had some firepower of their own. Jordan Love threw for three touchdowns for 27.52. Roquan Smith added up 28 points. And Denzel Bal Belton added another 27 points. Mike Esecki also found the end zone with 20.6 points. But the lineup had too many league weak links. Drink Lugn managed five point three. Aaron Jones finished with seven. Xavier Worthy scraped together three point three points. And there was a little extra pain waiting on the bench with Dak Prescott's twenty-four point two points, which would have been a major upgrade over Love. Actually, Love scored twenty-seven point two, so that move stays on the bench. Cameron Dickers, 14 points, and the Patriots 18.5 were also respectable, but neither would have closed the gap. The verdict, saving Ryan's Privates, wins forty-nine point nine points, takes a weekly scoring crown, and leaves the Hail Mary searching for divine intervention. The gods have spoken, and this week Ryan's Privates was anything. But dominant. Champ of the House: Mm. Yeah, your your uncle's team's been something. He's a strong team for sure. And poor Ray, Loser X2: Mm. Champ of the House: he's he started out really strong and it's been a kind of a tumble the last few weeks. Back to back Loser X2: Spyrolling. Champ of the House: banishes, yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah, they've kind of had the opposite luck in this season. Uncle Rob's team was starting off really rough, and we're going, man, with all these names, they should be doing better. And then now they're steamrolling. And Champ of the House: Yeah. Yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: Rays was top scoring team for the first two weeks, right? And Champ of the House: Mm-hmm. OverThinker in Cheif: now not so much. That's fantasy football, man. Sometimes it bites you like that. Loser X2: Mm-hmm. Champ of the House: Yeah, like we said last week, she's a fickle bitch, so OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah. So. Hopefully Ray can hit the waiver and see if he can go a little better on it. And next we have Loki's Lucky Finds. And I don't really want to talk about it, but Champ of the House: I don't really want to. OverThinker in Cheif: it is my segment this time. I got the offensive weapon in the Lucky Finds with Sam Darnold putting up 29.92, which if I didn't have him on my bench would have won me the match. I over thought things and thought with the addition of a brand new Pro Bowl lineman who didn't really have time to practice with the team versus Jeffrey Simmons I was gonna bet on Jeffrey Simmons and against a pocket holding up for Sam Darnold and I thought it was gonna be a nightmare matchup for him and no he put up 30 points instead and the one who I put in Jacobi Brissette, he's the one that not only did poorly but got benched, not even making up to five points. then after going, hey, this was a great pickup, Sam Darnold's out probably till week 12. So this was a shiny new penny that tarnished quickly. Yeah. Champ of the House: You flipped it over and it was smashed. Somebody smashed the backside. OverThinker in Cheif: Now, Verathragna's Vengeance, they picked up Christian Alas, who saw his 25 point performance in week 7 and grabbed him up on the waivers ahead of their own Bipocalypse. And so he put up 17.5 on the bench for them and ended up being the biggest defensive pick up. So he'll be holding him out and seeing how he does against Green Bay next week. seeing how things go there. Champ of the House: Very nice. Great pickups, everybody. Okay. all right, let's jump into the week nine prophecies. let's see. I went five and two last week. Give me a little edge, put me at twenty-nine Loser X2: Nice. Champ of the House: and twenty-seven. Daniel, you went three and four as well as Mario, leaving you at 30 and 28, one game ahead of me, and Mario 21 and 35. You're a few games back there, but not far out. So let's see how we all do this OverThinker in Cheif: Oof! Champ of the House: week and let's prophesy. OverThinker in Cheif: our guests are going to catch up with me. Loser X2: Yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: Way in the back. Champ of the House: We'll combine we'll combine their scores and see how they do. Okay, we got a host Loser X2: Mm. OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah, exactly. Champ of the House: battle this week. I'm loving it. Daniel, you versus me. Loser X2: Mm. Champ of the House: Apache gorillas versus the plague of Anubis. I just see a bunch of me and me. Yeah, Loser X2: I'm picking me, but it hasn't been very good season to do so. Champ of the House: I see me, me, and then Daniel. So good for you, Mario. I see that's cool. I usually win these weeks. OverThinker in Cheif: you know what this was a really hard one to call so i just went with blood on this one but you know this Loser X2: Yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: is a flip of a coin this could be a spartan shield either this one or or chasses i think could both Champ of the House: Yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: spartan shield type games so it's tough call Champ of the House: My see my I I think my team catches the flack of it's people like I got Price in the he's a kick returner from Minnesota, so he is predicted four points a week, but he's never been that low. You know what I mean? So OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah. He's a 15 or up or higher. Yeah. Champ of the House: He is yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. So I mean he has put down as low as five in one week and eight in another, but yeah, most weeks are fifteen and twenty plus, so yeah, I just OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah, exactly. Champ of the House: hoping for those good points against a team like Buffalo so he'd be kicking and punting a lot, right? So OverThinker in Cheif: Yep, those Josh Allen Russian touchdowns. Champ of the House: Mm. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, it's it's a hurting week. This is the week I have to bench Pollard. It's a tough one for me. So yeah, he's catching me in my my Pollard list week. He's my best player right now. Yeah. Well, Loser X2: Your VP. Mm-hmm. OverThinker in Cheif: Mm-hmm. Champ of the House: I don't know. I think him and Kittle. I think I I because of our tight end bonus, I do put Kittle up there as one of my other VPs OverThinker in Cheif: Alright, yeah. Champ of the House: for sure. Loser X2: Mm. OverThinker in Cheif: I'd put Kittle up there for you. I think he's the best is still yet to come and he's killer. Champ of the House: Yeah, I think he's got my tag at the at this current state. If I would like to had to tag right now, that's my guy right now. Even with age OverThinker in Cheif: Mm-hmm. Champ of the House: and everything. It's because our bonus, our bonus does help him, so it perks him up, but I don't know, man. Come at me. I like this battle. Loser X2: Does Champ of the House: I like this battle. This is a good one. So we'll see. Okay. Loser X2: Be a good battle. Hopefully I have a live living running back to actually put in this week, so Champ of the House: Hey, I would like to prop you with your you had a good waiver. You stole my waiver. Wonderful job. I knew as I Loser X2: Mm, mm. Champ of the House: sat number four on waiver, and number one, two, and three are Robbie, you, and Mario. Loser X2: Yeah. Champ of the House: I wasn't getting the first four, and I knew it as I looked at them. I'm like, I'm gonna OverThinker in Cheif: You Champ of the House: put you guys here, knowing I'm not gonna get you. And I didn't get a single Loser X2: Mm. Champ of the House: one of them. So yeah, well done for the three of you guys taking waivers. That's how good it is. So I like to see that. Yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: Thank you, sir. Champ of the House: And the what it really I like to see is when when Tyler Algier was taken by number one waiver and eight other people tried to waiver that player, you're like, You did good, Robbie. Well done, you know? Loser X2: Mm-hmm. OverThinker in Cheif: Mm-hmm. Champ of the House: Yeah, I know we're all fucking sad about it, I know. So Loser X2: Mm. OverThinker in Cheif: Well if it makes you Champ of the House: Yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: feel better about it, he didn't do well and that's why he was able to pick up Elgier. Champ of the House: I I know. I know. Well, technically he did do well because he won last week. He just hasn't done well all season. So he did do well. He was a high scorer. OverThinker in Cheif: That's true. That's Champ of the House: So okay, let's jump into battle number two. owl formation takes on the victorious Valkyries. Loser X2: Five weeks calling it for Jess. OverThinker in Cheif: This is tough. I'm calling it for Chass, but there's a chance that Jonathan Loser X2: That's what I meant. Sorry. OverThinker in Cheif: Taylor's gonna be bubble wrapped again. Even so, Champ of the House: Yeah. Possible trading them away. Loser X2: Mm. OverThinker in Cheif: she's got Seth McGowan in though. Champ of the House: She has his back yeah, she's been rocking his backup, so OverThinker in Cheif: So that's that's looking good for her and then Rashad white she can pop in if it looks like if if they do right by the fantasy community and Sit Jonathan Taylor out then she can flex it put Rashad white in who he should be doing really well also so Champ of the House: Mm-hmm. Absolutely. He's been a killer felon. OverThinker in Cheif: Austin Echler is another one that's doing really well in Washington. They've been splitting Rashad White and Austin Echler. so, you know, someone's last minute little ads, that's not a bad one. But Rashad Champ of the House: Mm-hmm. OverThinker in Cheif: White's got just a bump up higher than him. He's not coming back from injury and he's been on the team longer, so they've been feeding him. But yeah, so I... Champ of the House: There were some good waiver wires this week with him and Gainwell and Alvin Kamara. OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah. Champ of the House: There were some good running backs on waivers this week. There were waiver bye week, that kind of thing, so OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah. Loser X2: Mm, mm. Streamers. OverThinker in Cheif: But the main reason I picked Champ of the House: Yeah. Streamers, thank you. OverThinker in Cheif: Jast is Jags defense versus Baltimore in their QB-less offense. so. Champ of the House: True, but I will point out this is a Thursday night game and Thursday night games always go awry. Loser X2: Maybe even worse. OverThinker in Cheif: I'm sure it'll go awry, alright. Champ of the House: It's gonna go ride somewhere, yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: I think it's going to look like a jaguar attacking a sloth. It's not going be pretty. Champ of the House: Well, let's hope so for her sake. She needs that extra help and she needs a win. She can't go six weeks and let Robbie ha cow man to be in that boat. Oof. Yeah. Let's OverThinker in Cheif: Mm-hmm. Champ of the House: let's hope for her sake she doesn't. She needs this to a get right game where she's gonna be wearing a tiara, so Which I'm picking those tiaras up at Disneyland this year. I realize they have Loser X2: nice. Champ of the House: a shop. They have a shop that makes custom tiaras. I can color coordinate the tiara and the gems to all you guys. So skin tones, it's gonna be really nice. Loser X2: Very nice. OverThinker in Cheif: Of course they do. That's awesome. Champ of the House: Make you guys pop your eyes and everything. yeah, nice and gorgeous. So you bitches Loser X2: Very nice. OverThinker in Cheif: Way to go. Champ of the House: are gonna look pretty. Yeah. I like it. Loser X2: Going next battle. Caprobot soldiers versus Verathragna's vengeance. Champ of the House: Okay. Ali. I'm going all E here. We're gonna go Ali hardcore. He's gonna win. OverThinker in Cheif: I am as well. Yeah, I... Loser X2: Lee across the board. Champ of the House: Yeah. No. I got you, Hoser. We know what this means. We really know what this means, okay? Loser X2: Yeah. Ollie. Champ of the House: Yeah. Wing. Yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: I think their running backs are both going to disappoint a bit. Bijan Robinson and Chase Brown, they've been Champ of the House: Yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: falling kind of flat. But I think, Champ of the House: Mm-hmm. It's been a few weeks for Bijan. OverThinker in Cheif: yeah, Fanning, Neighbors, and Stevenson in the Flex, along with think Malik Willis has a high floor. Champ of the House: Neighbors could be a good one though 'cause of 'cause of JJ. So yeah. Yeah, that's the guy it'll be too. Yep. OverThinker in Cheif: if McCarthy's launching bombs, Neighbors is on the other end of that. So yeah, think this could be a slaughterhouse, plus the Texans defense versus the Chargers. Champ of the House: Yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah, say Ali should win this handily. Champ of the House: Should. Yeah. Should. Okay. let's see. I'm an Aztec warrior versus Anankas Temple of BDSM. I am an outlier here. I'm gonna go Robbie. I'm gonna go with the temple. He's he's in his he's heating up phase. Yeah, he's in he's in his heat. Loser X2: Robbie should stay in the dungeon. OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah. Champ of the House: He should. absolutely. But remember I had we had this conversation. I I'm picking based off of NDHM rules, you know? Loser X2: Mm, mm, mm. Champ of the House: He's in his heating up phase. I like it, so Loser X2: Nice. Alright. Go ahead, Mark. Mm. Yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah, that's a tough one to call. I thought it could go either way. Flipped a coin, went Martin. Champ of the House: Yeah. Loser X2: Alright, next up, another host battle. Smitey Mighty Bastones versus Team the One. Champ of the House: yeah. Loser X2: I agree with John. If C C plays, Mario will fall. OverThinker in Cheif: I agree with that as well. think Champ of the House: Yeah. I have a big if in this. Yeah, I got a big if in it. If CMC's there, you're done. OverThinker in Cheif: if St. Brown is out, if Garrett Wilson is in bubble wrap because of trade talks, If CMC doesn't play There's more on the list here Michael Wilson is held out Champ of the House: Yeah, yeah, there's a lot of ifs. OverThinker in Cheif: for his ribs Hunter Henry Bosa and her Jack Campbell is obviously not playing I guess she's got a lot on her team. That's Pretty iffy there, so Champ of the House: I like I like what you did there. It was pretty subtle, but you're pointing out the fact that she's got nothing and you're gonna take her this week. I really like what you did there. Yeah, no no no. no. I'm just OverThinker in Cheif: Could be, could be. She could be banished to Hades with a little bandaid and to get well. We'll see what happens. Champ of the House: Yeah, that sounds Loser X2: See what happens. Champ of the House: barn, barren, barren. That's a Man, okay. OverThinker in Cheif: You Loser X2: Speaking of burning, Hercules' huge sock OverThinker in Cheif: Ha ha ha! Loser X2: versus saving Ryan's private. Champ of the House: Yeah, we're we're back into the the the battle of the groin. The battle Loser X2: Yeah. Champ of the House: of the bulge. This is our battle of the bulge, right? So OverThinker in Cheif: That's right. Champ of the House: Yeah. We got our own battle of the bulge. your uncle Rob, I hands down, I don't think mm. Vince has got an okay team, but I just went your uncle's team is just too strong right now. It's one of those teams on the rise as we were talking. Loser X2: Agreed. OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah, I think this is gonna Champ of the House: Where OverThinker in Cheif: end in a something about Mary. How'd you get the beans above the Frank? Champ of the House: Ha ha. I knew right what you were talking about too. man. Okay. OverThinker in Cheif: Ha ha ha ha! Loser X2: No Speaking of Beans and Franks, Rusty the Hobo versus the Hail Mary. OverThinker in Cheif: You Champ of the House: Justin's bringing the shiv. He's fucking that thing's Loser X2: Yeah. Champ of the House: sharpened and he just he's he's dropping players on trade blocks. He's sending out weekly offers for players. The man has no more future picks to to work with other than OverThinker in Cheif: Mm-hmm. Champ of the House: twenty twenty nine at this point. So yeah. I don't know. I don't Exactly. Yeah. Loser X2: Wheelin' and dealin'. It'll be interesting to see. OverThinker in Cheif: He is holding Saquon Barkley, but, you know, he also has Gibbs to counter that, so it's all good. It's all good. Champ of the House: Mm. Absolutely. OverThinker in Cheif: sorry Ray, you got Aaron Champ of the House: T-da-da. OverThinker in Cheif: Jones? And all the trade talks are, JT's gonna be taking his job, maybe, so. Champ of the House: yeah. See, that's what I said earlier to Robbie, and he's like, not a chance. And I'm like, bro, I think he may be going to the Vikings right now. OverThinker in Cheif: Dude, JT's on the move. Champ of the House: He's going, but where? See, he keeps yeah, OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah. Champ of the House: no, I was having this conversation and Rob keeps saying chiefs. And I'm like, you can't throw Chiefs into every battle name. You gotta have something to train. OverThinker in Cheif: Why would the Chiefs trade for him? Champ of the House: Yeah, you gotta have they have kind of fucking walker right now. They don't need him. So yeah. Mm-hmm. No. OverThinker in Cheif: and Emmett Johnson. You got both of them. Why do you need a third one? You already have a third one sitting in the ranks. Yeah. Champ of the House: No, you gotta look at a team that needs it, that's doing well. Vikings. So yeah. I said the same thing and I said, Hey, he's gonna go to the Vikings and he didn't agree with me. I said, Okay, well, we'll see. It'll happen soon. OverThinker in Cheif: Yeah, because you got Houston, you got the Vikings, and you got Green Bay. Those three? And you know what? I'm hearing Champ of the House: Houston's a good one. Yep. And Green Bay's gonna need something 'cause of Jacobs, absolutely. OverThinker in Cheif: rumors that the Bengals might not be happy with the production they have from Chase Brown also. And they really think this could be their shot this year with their defense doing better. So we'll see. Champ of the House: One player's signing to the defense and it's we're fucking better. OverThinker in Cheif: They're a lot better. They're not worse than they are. They're not worse. Yeah. But see, Breece Hall, Loser X2: They're so much better. Yeah. Champ of the House: absolutely. No, they they are. No, they are. I'm just cracking a joke. They just thought they put a lot of money into the defense, so we signed a player, we're the best ever. No, I like it. Yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: he's been kind of shown up by Braylon Allen. Loser X2: Braylon Allen. Champ of the House: in his backup. Yeah. Yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: who had all the tools and no vision and he's showing he's got some vision now. And so there's all these Loser X2: He's learning. He's also so young. Champ of the House: Yeah. OverThinker in Cheif: things up in the air where you got running backs that might be available. Sequan has been pulled off that market. So now it's between Champ of the House: Mm-hmm. OverThinker in Cheif: Brice and JT and those are some pretty damn good options. Champ of the House: Yep. Yep. Yep. Yep. No, I made that very comment that OverThinker in Cheif: So we'll see. Champ of the House: Brees and him and yeah, there's a few, yeah. So it should be very interesting to follow. So thanks for marching with us, Mortals.
