- 0:04Speaker 1: Fall. System's going clear? What is going on? Ship at
- 0:37Speaker 1: Nation YouTube station?
- 0:39Speaker 2: We're back Sunday night football breakdown here and him we
- 0:43Speaker 2: got a freaking doozy here. I can't believe this game
- 0:45Speaker 2: is not on the main side because this game would
- 0:47Speaker 2: have been the game. Everybody's running in the window to
- 0:49Speaker 2: stack up. But nonetheless, thirty nine point total here in Pittsburgh.
- 0:53Speaker 2: Uh and hey, DeVante Adams reunited with his boy Aaron Rodgers.
- 0:57Speaker 2: Maybe that'll change that jet jet offense because it looked
- 1:01Speaker 2: pretty pathetic last primetime slate here.
- 1:03Speaker 1: But what's going on in Happy Sunday? What's up? Brother?
- 1:06Speaker 3: Yeah, Happy Sunday, Great Saturday of college football Tennessee. Valls
- 1:10Speaker 3: took care of business last night. Hey, what about our
- 1:12Speaker 3: boy BJ? We didn't talk about him BJ over there
- 1:15Speaker 3: in the MLBS showdown slate. Shout out to my boy BJ.
- 1:19Speaker 3: Just a cool twenty five k in his back pocket.
- 1:21Speaker 3: But yeah, looking forward to talking about this this Sunday
- 1:24Speaker 3: night game. Hopefully we have some winners in the uh
- 1:27Speaker 3: in the main slate as well, but should be a
- 1:29Speaker 3: going can't wait to talk about it. And uh, my
- 1:32Speaker 3: boy too, mister unlimited, Mister Unlimited making his return to
- 1:36Speaker 3: the lineup tonight. Can't wait to talk. I like mister Unlimited,
- 1:39Speaker 3: the person. He gets crapped on a lot this day
- 1:42Speaker 3: and age, and he's not who he once was, but
- 1:44Speaker 3: he's pretty funny to make fun of. So it should
- 1:46Speaker 3: be a good real life game. Can't wait to talk
- 1:48Speaker 3: about it.
- 1:49Speaker 1: Yeah, should be a should be a pretty good real
- 1:51Speaker 1: life game.
- 1:51Speaker 2: Here games in Pittsburgh obviously thirty nine point total, one
- 1:56Speaker 2: and a half points spread here, two and four Jets
- 1:58Speaker 2: coming into the four and two Steelers, And man, did
- 2:03Speaker 2: I see Russell Wilson is going to get the start?
- 2:07Speaker 1: Is that right? I think they're.
- 2:09Speaker 2: Deciding between Russell and Justin Fields, which seems ridiculous to me.
- 2:13Speaker 2: Justin Fields has really done nothing wrong. I mean, he's
- 2:16Speaker 2: got this team at four and two with literally throwing
- 2:18Speaker 2: the ball to pickings and friar moves, and then he's
- 2:20Speaker 2: got school Leblan behind him. Good good thing they got
- 2:23Speaker 2: a good defense. But yeah, I mean, if that's the case,
- 2:26Speaker 2: this game is gonna be really ugly in my opinion,
- 2:28Speaker 2: I mean, from a quarterback standpoint, I guess we can
- 2:31Speaker 2: just jump right into the captain position because I think
- 2:34Speaker 2: they the reports were they're gonna kind of use both
- 2:37Speaker 2: of them, is what I saw. That's pretty hard to
- 2:41Speaker 2: deal with on a showdown. When Russell Wilson's fourteen one
- 2:44Speaker 2: in the captain spot, justin Fields is fourteen to seven,
- 2:47Speaker 2: and if they're gonna be using both of them and
- 2:49Speaker 2: not even realizing what the hell's going on there, it's
- 2:52Speaker 2: gonna be tough to kind of pinpoint that. But from
- 2:54Speaker 2: a captain position, you got Brashaw at fifteen six, you
- 2:57Speaker 2: got Davonte Adams at fifteen flat, and then you got
- 3:00Speaker 2: my boy, Garrett Wilson down at thirteen to eight. Because
- 3:03Speaker 2: Davonte Adams comes over. Hey, I don't know about you,
- 3:06Speaker 2: but just because Devanta Adams comes over, I get it.
- 3:09Speaker 2: Him and Aaron Rodgers shower together and whatever else. But
- 3:12Speaker 2: Garrett Wilson is still an absolute stud. And now listen,
- 3:15Speaker 2: I think just takes more pressure off of Garrett Wilson,
- 3:17Speaker 2: more focus off of Garrett Wilson. I mean, when you
- 3:20Speaker 2: got Devanta Adams on the other side instead of Mike
- 3:22Speaker 2: Williams who slips and falls and just hands the ball
- 3:24Speaker 2: to the other team, it's a little bit different, right,
- 3:27Speaker 2: So from a captain standpoint, where are you looking because
- 3:31Speaker 2: I think this is pretty interesting here. It's the first
- 3:33Speaker 2: time we've seen Devanta Adams and this new Jets offense here,
- 3:36Speaker 2: so we have no sample to work off of.
- 3:39Speaker 3: Really, yeah, no, I think it's I think the Jets
- 3:43Speaker 3: come out and win this game. I really do. I
- 3:45Speaker 3: do like Davante, I do like Garrett both in the
- 3:48Speaker 3: captain spot the best. Yeah. I like what you said,
- 3:51Speaker 3: and I wrote it up on the Fando Sleigh Plan
- 3:53Speaker 3: this week is you know, Davante's has that connection with Rogers,
- 3:57Speaker 3: but Garrett Wilson's a Bona Fatt's. Oh and he's like,
- 4:00Speaker 3: I think, five years younger, and he's the most I
- 4:03Speaker 3: think the most targeted or the second most targeted receiver
- 4:06Speaker 3: for the NFL. Obviously that'll change a little bit, but yeah,
- 4:09Speaker 3: you're throwing to Alan Lazard, Mike Williams, some tight end
- 4:13Speaker 3: no one's ever heard of, and now you've got Davonte,
- 4:15Speaker 3: another star. He's sort of get a lot of one
- 4:17Speaker 3: on one coverage, both of them are for that matter,
- 4:19Speaker 3: we won't be able to shade with him. I'm with you.
- 4:22Speaker 3: I like Garrett Wilson in this matchup. I like Davonte
- 4:25Speaker 3: Adams in this matchup, I would side with Wilson just
- 4:29Speaker 3: just based on price, right, I mean, Adams hasn't played
- 4:31Speaker 3: in three weeks. Hey, But I do want to give
- 4:33Speaker 3: a huge shout out to the Jets medical staff. What
- 4:35Speaker 3: a great job I'm getting that hamstring ready in less
- 4:38Speaker 3: than a week for DeVante. It was such a great
- 4:39Speaker 3: job by them. I'm really proud of what they did
- 4:42Speaker 3: with that hamstring. Shout out to them. And then you're
- 4:44Speaker 3: you're right, I mean they're gonna play both quarterbacks on
- 4:46Speaker 3: the other side, I think I think that you know,
- 4:48Speaker 3: Fields is going to be that more of that uh
- 4:50Speaker 3: you know, gadget kind of guy, right, you know, third
- 4:53Speaker 3: and one or two, fourth and two, and they need
- 4:55Speaker 3: to run and and so neither neither Steelers captain for me,
- 5:00Speaker 3: I don't know if you said that, but I won't
- 5:02Speaker 3: be playing them in the captain spot unless something comes
- 5:05Speaker 3: out of Hey, justin Fields is gonna play and play
- 5:08Speaker 3: the whole game or vice versa. But my two favorite
- 5:11Speaker 3: would be those wide receivers for the Jets, and then
- 5:15Speaker 3: number three and four. I mean, you still got Briece
- 5:18Speaker 3: solid back there, right, I mean you're gonna have to
- 5:20Speaker 3: have those those two safeties, Mika Fitzpatrick. You're gonna have
- 5:23Speaker 3: to have him and that other safety ten to fifteen
- 5:25Speaker 3: yards off the line of scrimmage right playing over the top. Hey,
- 5:28Speaker 3: that's gonna open up open up the run game for
- 5:30Speaker 3: bree So don't hate Breece. He is the most expensive.
- 5:33Speaker 3: And then we always talk about it with a rod, right.
- 5:35Speaker 3: I mean, if Wilson and Davonte both have ceiling games
- 5:39Speaker 3: or close to ceiling games, they're naturally gonna drag a
- 5:42Speaker 3: rod with him. So he would be my fourth favorite
- 5:45Speaker 3: captain that I like tonight.
- 5:47Speaker 2: Yeah, No, excellent breakdown, a lot of points that I
- 5:50Speaker 2: agree with. I'm gonna start from the captain position. I
- 5:52Speaker 2: think more people are gonna go to Garrett Wilson Devontae
- 5:54Speaker 2: Adams with who I do like. But I mean I'll
- 5:58Speaker 2: hit on that in a second. My favorite captain here
- 5:59Speaker 2: is Breesce Hall. He's gonna do it all. Less focus
- 6:02Speaker 2: is gonna get on him as well. With DeVante Adams
- 6:04Speaker 2: there and Alexander Madison went for eighteen, Rico Dowdall went
- 6:08Speaker 2: for twenty, Jonathan Taylor went for twenty all against this
- 6:11Speaker 2: Pittsburgh defense. If I show you to pull up the
- 6:13Speaker 2: QB game logs. Across six weeks, a QB hasn't pass
- 6:17Speaker 2: surpassed fifteen points or twelve points. Excuse me, outside of
- 6:21Speaker 2: Dak Prescott in one week. Every other week it's been
- 6:23Speaker 2: twelve or under. I mean you're talking. Justin Herbert scored
- 6:26Speaker 2: nine points, Poe Nicks, with rushing upside running all over
- 6:28Speaker 2: the field, scored eleven, Anthony Richardson scored five eight, and
- 6:32Speaker 2: O'Connell scored twelve. Granted it's not huge massive sample sizes here,
- 6:36Speaker 2: but I mean, now a forty one year old Aaron
- 6:38Speaker 2: Rodgers comes into Pittsburgh to face I think the league's
- 6:42Speaker 2: best defense, it's gonna be tough here. I think for
- 6:48Speaker 2: the Jets to get stuff going on offense, and I
- 6:51Speaker 2: think they're gonna have to rely on Brice Hall. All
- 6:53Speaker 2: the coach speak, obviously coming in last week was run
- 6:56Speaker 2: heavy with the new coordinator here in New York. Everybody
- 6:59Speaker 2: just wants to jump off the off the wagan now
- 7:01Speaker 2: because Devanta Adams here and thinks this team is just
- 7:03Speaker 2: gonna go air raid. I still think they're gonna go
- 7:06Speaker 2: on the ground. I still think that's the best way
- 7:09Speaker 2: to attack Pittsburgh I mean, no good way to really
- 7:13Speaker 2: attack them, but we have to right playing a one
- 7:15Speaker 2: game sample. Here are a one game slate. I think
- 7:18Speaker 2: Brisall is the best play in the slate. He's my
- 7:21Speaker 2: favorite play from the Jets side. From the quarterback standpoint,
- 7:25Speaker 2: I'm gonna be fading all three of these quarterbacks, especially
- 7:28Speaker 2: in the captain's position. I'm gonna be underweight on these
- 7:30Speaker 2: quarterbacks in general. Like I said, I mean, you look
- 7:33Speaker 2: at both of these teams against quarterbacks outside of Josh
- 7:36Speaker 2: Allen last week, who's basically kind of a bona fide
- 7:39Speaker 2: running back, right, Sam Darnold, bo Nicks, Jacobe Risquette, will Levis,
- 7:45Speaker 2: who hey aren't aren't great quarterbacks, but the Jets kind
- 7:47Speaker 2: of ate them all up. Now you get Russell Wilson,
- 7:50Speaker 2: who I think is a terrible quarterback. Justin fields, I
- 7:53Speaker 2: think is the better quarterback. But again with the you
- 7:55Speaker 2: don't know what that split's going to look like. Russell
- 7:57Speaker 2: Wilson is going to start the game. He hasn't played
- 7:59Speaker 2: all year at justin fields. Obviously, you know what he's
- 8:03Speaker 2: he can do. At least he can get it done
- 8:04Speaker 2: out of the ground. So overall, from the quarterback standpoint.
- 8:08Speaker 2: I think this is a slate where going under on
- 8:11Speaker 2: the quarterbacks and just going on the volume guys, right,
- 8:14Speaker 2: the Garrett Wilson's of the world, the Vante Adams of
- 8:17Speaker 2: the world. I like Tyler Conklin, bres Hall obviously, and
- 8:21Speaker 2: then on the other side, I like Pickett, I like
- 8:23Speaker 2: Friar Mooth, I like Naje Harris some of those guys.
- 8:27Speaker 2: I'm just going more on the volume guys here overall.
- 8:30Speaker 2: So captain position, it's Brisall for me, Garrett Wilson would
- 8:33Speaker 2: be probably my second favorite captain. And then on the
- 8:37Speaker 2: on the Steelers side, man, it's it's pretty gross to
- 8:39Speaker 2: to grab a captain. If I were to go to one,
- 8:42Speaker 2: it'd probably be Pickens, just because I think they need
- 8:45Speaker 2: to push the ball. So Pickens would probably be my
- 8:48Speaker 2: favorite captain. So Pickens, Naje Harris maybe, but it's it's
- 8:52Speaker 2: realistically Breesall. I'm gonna be heavy on on Brisall here
- 8:54Speaker 2: in the captain standpoint. Any any additional thoughts or comments
- 8:59Speaker 2: on on that.
- 9:00Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I get your point. On the Steelers.
- 9:02Speaker 3: I mean, those those quarterbacks that you name all have
- 9:04Speaker 3: one thing in common, and they all suck, right, and
- 9:07Speaker 3: a Rod's not the a Rod of Bold and he's
- 9:09Speaker 3: not gonna run, but I do think he can distribute
- 9:11Speaker 3: the ball a little bit better. And I'm sorry, Dak,
- 9:13Speaker 3: I didn't mean to say that about you. I'll take
- 9:15Speaker 3: Dak out of that, but he's.
- 9:17Speaker 1: Not now, Dek. Dak sucks at football. I'll just say
- 9:23Speaker 1: that off the top. He's terrible.
- 9:25Speaker 2: I mean, we got a lot of terrible quarterbacks in
- 9:28Speaker 2: the realm here of looking at these game logs, which
- 9:31Speaker 2: not a huge game log watcher, but when you're starting
- 9:33Speaker 2: to get to six weeks and that right does ample
- 9:36Speaker 2: size starts to get bigger. But yeah, they haven't really
- 9:39Speaker 2: played any crazy quarterbacks. Dak did go for twenty two. So,
- 9:43Speaker 2: like I said, if I'd were to go to a quarterback,
- 9:44Speaker 2: I'd definitely be on the Aaron Rodgers side, because I
- 9:46Speaker 2: don't want to deal with the split or what that
- 9:48Speaker 2: looks like from Pittsburgh Pittsburgh side. I mean, it's just
- 9:51Speaker 2: mind boggling that Russell Wilson comes back, and I mean,
- 9:54Speaker 2: justin fields, has you at four and two and winning
- 9:56Speaker 2: football games here? They could even be better than four
- 9:59Speaker 2: and two, And now you're gonna say, oh, Russell Wilson.
- 10:00Speaker 2: Here you go, let's cook up some some terrible dessert
- 10:04Speaker 2: that nobody wants to eat, and Justin Fields is just
- 10:07Speaker 2: probably gonna end up going right back in the game.
- 10:09Speaker 2: So that's a good point you.
- 10:11Speaker 1: Bring up there.
- 10:11Speaker 2: Let's let's pop over to the flex position here, and
- 10:15Speaker 2: in a game like this, I mean kickers and defenses, right,
- 10:18Speaker 2: both of these defenses are very good. The Steelers defense
- 10:21Speaker 2: is at forty eight, the Jets is at forty two.
- 10:24Speaker 2: I like the Jets defense a lot here. I mean,
- 10:28Speaker 2: Russell Wilson, terrible quarterback, Justin Fields can make mistakes, granted,
- 10:32Speaker 2: he can get it done more on the ground with
- 10:34Speaker 2: his legs. And then you got Boswell, a great kicker,
- 10:36Speaker 2: averaging over twelve Fantasy points. He's fifty two hundred zerline
- 10:40Speaker 2: at five k. Hey, Greg the leg isn't really Greg
- 10:43Speaker 2: the leg anymore this year. So for me, it's Boswell,
- 10:47Speaker 2: it's the Steelers defense, and that the Jets defense. I
- 10:49Speaker 2: really think the Jets defense gets a little slept on here,
- 10:53Speaker 2: and there's still a great, a great defense overall.
- 10:57Speaker 3: Yeah, hey, what thanks you. I want to bring up
- 10:58Speaker 3: too that you made a good point on George Pickens,
- 11:01Speaker 3: which George Pickens is a really good receiver. And DJ
- 11:04Speaker 3: Reid left that Monday night game against the Bills the
- 11:07Speaker 3: other night and they kind of picked on that backup.
- 11:09Speaker 3: You're obviously gonna want to fade sauce, but if if
- 11:12Speaker 3: DJ Reid is out, I think that does benefit George Pickens,
- 11:15Speaker 3: A good call on that. But yeah, moving on to
- 11:18Speaker 3: kickers and defenses. We talk about all the time. Boswell
- 11:20Speaker 3: over irline for me, Zrlin just is struggling right now.
- 11:23Speaker 3: I know the win was a little bad on Monday,
- 11:25Speaker 3: but Boswell's kicked in that stadium obviously for years. Uh
- 11:29Speaker 3: He's He's almost automatic from fifty and the inn. So
- 11:31Speaker 3: I do like Boswell. I'm a little I'm a little
- 11:35Speaker 3: lower on on the Jets d. I just don't think
- 11:37Speaker 3: it's I think they ranked pretty good. But I think
- 11:40Speaker 3: you know, uh you know, stats live sometimes, right, and
- 11:43Speaker 3: I think that I think that you can runnle this
- 11:45Speaker 3: team too.
- 11:46Speaker 1: Right.
- 11:46Speaker 3: We saw Jordan Mason, we saw some guy named Ray Davis.
- 11:51Speaker 3: Just guys you've never heard of run all over this team.
- 11:54Speaker 3: That's their weakness. Uh So could it be a Najie
- 11:57Speaker 3: Harris day. I don't think so we don't really like him,
- 11:59Speaker 3: although he had a good day last week. But so
- 12:01Speaker 3: I'm lower on the Jets defense, you know, I think
- 12:06Speaker 3: like you said, I mean, you know, they fire their
- 12:08Speaker 3: offensive coordinator to come out and say, hey, we're gonna
- 12:10Speaker 3: run the ball. We're gonna run the Ball're gonna run ball.
- 12:12Speaker 3: And then I think they threw it like forty times
- 12:15Speaker 3: last week, right, and so if they drop back that
- 12:18Speaker 3: many times again, that's Steelers defense. I Mean, Rogers is
- 12:21Speaker 3: a statue back there. He's gonna throw some pigs, take
- 12:24Speaker 3: some sacks. He's not mobile. I don't hate the Steelers
- 12:26Speaker 3: defense if you want to build a game script that way.
- 12:29Speaker 3: What's your take on having a like a breesst and
- 12:32Speaker 3: the Captain and a Steelers defense in the flex?
- 12:38Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I don't hate it, just because I think
- 12:39Speaker 2: brist does so much. I mean, he's still involved in
- 12:42Speaker 2: the passing game. I think this just opens him up more, right,
- 12:45Speaker 2: because now they have to focus on DeVante Adams cut
- 12:48Speaker 2: across the middle of the field. They have to focus
- 12:50Speaker 2: on him and Wilson on the outside. And hey, don't
- 12:54Speaker 2: mind you if Tyler Conkor plays, He's still great and
- 12:57Speaker 2: still cross the middle there, I think just so much
- 12:59Speaker 2: Morgets open up for Breesse here, and I just think
- 13:01Speaker 2: this offense becomes much more dynamic with with DeVante Adams there.
- 13:06Speaker 2: So I don't hate that because I mean, like I said,
- 13:09Speaker 2: the Steelers defense twelve thirteen to nine, eleven thirteen, I mean,
- 13:13Speaker 2: the only week they didn't score above nine fantasy points
- 13:16Speaker 2: was against Indy and Indy. Now they returned back home here,
- 13:20Speaker 2: even in the game where they lost and put up
- 13:22Speaker 2: gave up twenty points to Dallas, they still scored eleven
- 13:24Speaker 2: fantasy points, right, So they're giving up points, they're still scoring,
- 13:28Speaker 2: they're getting sacks. Aaron Rodgers is a statue back there.
- 13:33Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think TJ. Watt really I think TJ.
- 13:36Speaker 2: Watt's looking at chops right when he sees forty one
- 13:38Speaker 2: year old Aaron Rodgers coming to town and basically immobile
- 13:42Speaker 2: at this point of his career. So I think that's
- 13:45Speaker 2: a great play. I think that's the one way that
- 13:46Speaker 2: you get unique with Bresall as well, because, yeah, like
- 13:49Speaker 2: you said, looking at last week, I mean, they wanted
- 13:53Speaker 2: to run the football, run the football, but Aaron Rodgers
- 13:56Speaker 2: still threw the ball thirty five attempts. Now, obviously the
- 13:59Speaker 2: game script plays into that, right, Buffalo kind of came
- 14:01Speaker 2: out and just punched them in the mouth, so they.
- 14:04Speaker 1: Had to throw.
- 14:05Speaker 2: Now, if Jets are playing from ahead, which sounds like
- 14:08Speaker 2: you think, I kind of think a little bit as well,
- 14:11Speaker 2: they much I think they're gonna rely much more heavy
- 14:15Speaker 2: on the run than than what happened last week. But again,
- 14:17Speaker 2: if the same kind of thing comes out, right, Steelers
- 14:19Speaker 2: at home, come out, get two quick scores in the
- 14:22Speaker 2: Jets are trailing, Dan Aaron Rodgers is gonna have to
- 14:24Speaker 2: drop back. That just overall improves the Steelers defenses, where
- 14:28Speaker 2: while they're so kind of a long wind a way
- 14:30Speaker 2: to explain the Steelers defense, But overall, I do like
- 14:33Speaker 2: the Steelers defense a lot. I think they're the best
- 14:35Speaker 2: defense in football. So I'm definitely gonna have interest at
- 14:38Speaker 2: forty eight hundred in a showdown when when they're slightly
- 14:41Speaker 2: below the kickers, who I think pick up way more
- 14:43Speaker 2: ownership than the defenses, because usually we see these spots
- 14:46Speaker 2: where the kickers are what a thy twelve hundred dollars
- 14:49Speaker 2: more than the defense.
- 14:49Speaker 1: Now now they're two hundred dollars and four hundred dollars
- 14:52Speaker 1: more more than the defense here.
- 14:56Speaker 2: Yeah, and then let's let's staying down in this range.
- 15:02Speaker 2: I mean, you got Tyler Conklin right there sandwich between
- 15:05Speaker 2: the Jets defense and the Steelers defense at forty four hundred.
- 15:08Speaker 2: You know, Aaron Rodgers is likely going to be under
- 15:10Speaker 2: pressure in this game. He did only have two targets
- 15:12Speaker 2: or three targets last week, but before that nine targets,
- 15:15Speaker 2: eight targets, six targets. Like, you know, Aaron Rodgers loves
- 15:18Speaker 2: his tight ends. You know, Tyler Conkin's a pretty solid
- 15:21Speaker 2: tight end overall. He is questionable, but if he plays,
- 15:24Speaker 2: I mean, if there is a spot to at tag
- 15:27Speaker 2: to target this Pittsburgh defense, it is across the middle
- 15:30Speaker 2: of the field, those those dump like those those little
- 15:33Speaker 2: slots across the middle of those little crow routes in
- 15:36Speaker 2: the middle of the field there, And that's.
- 15:38Speaker 1: What Tyler Conklin is going to do.
- 15:40Speaker 2: So I don't hate him at forty four hundred being
- 15:43Speaker 2: squeezed there between the Jets, the Steelers and the and
- 15:46Speaker 2: the Kickers. Any thoughts on him? Jalen Warren, Braylan Allen,
- 15:49Speaker 2: Mike Mike Williams, who is just absolutely dust any of
- 15:53Speaker 2: these other guys in this four K and under range
- 15:56Speaker 2: down here.
- 15:58Speaker 3: Yeah, no, definitely like Conklin. And then I felt like
- 16:00Speaker 3: every time I looked up, you know, Jeremy Rutgert was
- 16:02Speaker 3: getting a target last week as well. I mean he's
- 16:05Speaker 3: more of a dart throw type thing. If you're playing,
- 16:07Speaker 3: I would say, you know, ten plus lineups. But I
- 16:09Speaker 3: don't hate Rutgert down there a good call on that.
- 16:13Speaker 3: I mean it's very thin. But Van Jefferson at two thousand,
- 16:17Speaker 3: you know, he's playing a bunch. They're not throwing to him,
- 16:20Speaker 3: and they're not throwing to many people at all. I
- 16:24Speaker 3: don't hate him. He's not the not the worst in
- 16:26Speaker 3: my opinion, but he is playing a lot, running a
- 16:29Speaker 3: lot of wind sprints out there. He wouldn't be bad.
- 16:32Speaker 3: And then I mentioned nause a little bit. I know
- 16:34Speaker 3: he's a little higher priced. I don't think Nase is
- 16:37Speaker 3: the worst. You know, Braylen Allen is interesting. You know,
- 16:41Speaker 3: he was kind of eating into eating into Breese Hall's work,
- 16:46Speaker 3: and then last week it was a competitive game, he
- 16:49Speaker 3: was struggling. I guess he dropped that screen pass, so
- 16:51Speaker 3: he kind of kind of got didn't play much in
- 16:53Speaker 3: the second half. You know, now he's thirty eight hundred dollars.
- 16:57Speaker 3: Steelers a physical team, you know, if you think if
- 17:00Speaker 3: they're gonna intertwine these backs, I don't hate him at
- 17:03Speaker 3: that price. I think that's good. But I mean I
- 17:05Speaker 3: really like Boswell probably, you know, if you're looking at
- 17:08Speaker 3: fifty two hundred and below, Boswell would be my favorite.
- 17:11Speaker 3: What's your take on Jalen Warren. He didn't do much
- 17:13Speaker 3: last week. He's pretty explosive, though, you know, if they
- 17:17Speaker 3: get behind, he could see you know, five to six, seven, eight,
- 17:20Speaker 3: easy dump off targets. What's your take on Jalen Warren.
- 17:25Speaker 2: Yeah, I actually like Jalen Warren here because I think
- 17:28Speaker 2: kind of like what you said. I mean, if Justin
- 17:30Speaker 2: Fields was playing here, I think this game would have
- 17:32Speaker 2: a better chance to stay competitive Personally, I think, I mean,
- 17:36Speaker 2: I think it's a terrible decision going to Russell Wilson personally,
- 17:41Speaker 2: So I think the Steelers are gonna be playing from behind.
- 17:44Speaker 2: That just benefits Jalen Warren even more. And at four
- 17:47Speaker 2: K he did play forty percent of the stamps last
- 17:49Speaker 2: week as well, so he's still I mean, they're still
- 17:51Speaker 2: in about a sixty forty split there had six carries
- 17:55Speaker 2: last week, still had three targets in the air the
- 17:58Speaker 2: two weeks before that. Obviously he was out first week
- 18:00Speaker 2: back after he kind of sat out two weeks for injury.
- 18:03Speaker 1: There.
- 18:04Speaker 2: I think that four k Jalen Warren is a great play,
- 18:07Speaker 2: So I think below I much preferred Jalen Warren over
- 18:11Speaker 2: Braylan Allen. Braylan Allen dropped to seventeen percent of the
- 18:14Speaker 2: staffs last week. Historically, he was right around that twenty
- 18:17Speaker 2: five to thirty percent range last week in a competitive game,
- 18:20Speaker 2: which I still think this game stays competitive because it's gross.
- 18:23Speaker 2: I think this is there's not gonna be much scoring overall.
- 18:27Speaker 2: I just don't think Braylan Allen gets the uh it
- 18:30Speaker 2: gets the overall workload here. But I mean it could
- 18:33Speaker 2: could on a short week, right, But I still think
- 18:36Speaker 2: Jalen Warren is a much better play. And yeah, he's
- 18:39Speaker 2: probably my favorite running back play from the Pittsburgh side.
- 18:42Speaker 2: I just think Naje's dust. I just don't think it's
- 18:44Speaker 2: a great spot here. And if I were the Jets,
- 18:48Speaker 2: I think I'm gonna make Russell Wilson and company beat
- 18:51Speaker 2: me through the air. Where that's your specialty anyways, right,
- 18:54Speaker 2: So I just don't think Naga is gonna get it
- 18:56Speaker 2: done on the ground, And I think Jalen Warren can
- 18:58Speaker 2: get it done in the in the passing game, and
- 19:01Speaker 2: he is explosive. Maybe he busts one of the carries
- 19:03Speaker 2: that he gets, right, the five to ten carries that
- 19:05Speaker 2: he gets, Maybe he busts onto the house.
- 19:07Speaker 1: And at four K that would be funny. So yeah, we're.
- 19:11Speaker 3: Gonna see some of those Russell Wilson moonballs, you know,
- 19:14Speaker 3: maybe they land in the arms of pickings and uh
- 19:18Speaker 3: and Jefferson in companies, he actually liked the actually liked
- 19:21Speaker 3: the switch. Uh fields. He's just not getting it done, man,
- 19:24Speaker 3: Like you can't he can't pass like and you gotta
- 19:27Speaker 3: be can't be one dimensional. I don't know. I think
- 19:29Speaker 3: it's a good move. I think, you know, just because
- 19:31Speaker 3: you're four and two doesn't mean he's doing well. But hey,
- 19:33Speaker 3: we'll find out tonight if if Old Russ is back,
- 19:37Speaker 3: which he's probably not, or if you know, mister Sierra turned,
- 19:40Speaker 3: you know, turns into a new QB.
- 19:42Speaker 2: I just think I just think your your job is
- 19:45Speaker 2: to win football games, right, So, like I mean he's
- 19:48Speaker 2: winning football games.
- 19:49Speaker 1: Yeah, it is a pretty absolutely not.
- 19:51Speaker 2: But who's to say that Russell Wilson, after sitting on
- 19:54Speaker 2: the shelf for six weeks, it's gonna come in against
- 19:58Speaker 2: one of the best defensive one the best secondaries. Obviously
- 20:01Speaker 2: they got some injuries back there, but they're still an
- 20:03Speaker 2: amazing defense. Well, who's to say that Russell Wilson gives
- 20:07Speaker 2: you a better chance?
- 20:08Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 20:08Speaker 2: I guess we'll find out. I think from a fantasy standpoint,
- 20:11Speaker 2: it definitely improves the receivers a little bit, I think,
- 20:16Speaker 2: But it seemed like it seemed like Fields was get
- 20:18Speaker 2: somewhat of a connection with Pickens and Friarmouth going at
- 20:20Speaker 2: least everybody else was kind of dust, right. But I mean,
- 20:24Speaker 2: I guess we'll find out with Russ and who knows,
- 20:26Speaker 2: maybe by the second half it's justin Fields team again,
- 20:30Speaker 2: so we'll see. But yeah, I mean I think we
- 20:33Speaker 2: hit on the value here. The value again pretty weak
- 20:35Speaker 2: on the slates. I mean, yeah, you're bringing out guys
- 20:38Speaker 2: like Jeremy Rucker, who's going to see two targets max
- 20:41Speaker 2: a game. I think kind of ex speaks for the
- 20:43Speaker 2: value here. We don't have the the Ray Davises of
- 20:46Speaker 2: the world right in this spot. So from a value standpoint,
- 20:52Speaker 2: I think quit more balanced in terms of build and
- 20:54Speaker 2: which I like anyways, because I'm underweight on those quarterbacks
- 20:58Speaker 2: from the Pittsburgh side, so naturally I'm gonna have some
- 21:00Speaker 2: salary to go to more of these skilled position players
- 21:03Speaker 2: and save some salary that way. But let's go back
- 21:07Speaker 2: to the top. What's your take on in the flex?
- 21:09Speaker 2: I mean you got Davante Adams at ten k right,
- 21:12Speaker 2: Breece Sawt ten four, Fields at ninety eight hundred, Russell
- 21:15Speaker 2: Wilson ninety four, Rogers at ninety six, Garrett Wilson at
- 21:18Speaker 2: ninety two. I mean, he's what the sixth highest priced
- 21:21Speaker 2: guy on the slate just because Davante Adams comes over.
- 21:24Speaker 2: I mean if this game was last week, Garrett Wilson
- 21:27Speaker 2: would would have probably been the second highest priced guy
- 21:29Speaker 2: on the slate behind Brecee Hall.
- 21:30Speaker 1: Right, So what's your take on that? I mean, you
- 21:32Speaker 1: got a lot of expensive guys.
- 21:34Speaker 2: I mean, Pickens at eighty four, I think feels like
- 21:36Speaker 2: the best play to me, just because I think the
- 21:38Speaker 2: Steelers are going to have to pass the ball like
- 21:40Speaker 2: you alluded to, right, Russell Wilson does have a better arm,
- 21:43Speaker 2: I think than justin fields. Now is he going to
- 21:44Speaker 2: be accurate and throw it and the ball is gonna
- 21:47Speaker 2: end up in Pickens's arms?
- 21:48Speaker 1: I guess we'll find out.
- 21:49Speaker 2: But I think I like him quite a bit, like
- 21:54Speaker 2: him much more than Nause for for six hundred dollars less.
- 21:56Speaker 2: But what's your take on kind of this upper tier
- 21:58Speaker 2: here in in the flex And then obviously hit on
- 22:01Speaker 2: Allan Lazar too. It's Cillion Rogers boy, but now he's
- 22:04Speaker 2: competing with U with Aaron Rodgers the other guy. Good thing, uh,
- 22:08Speaker 2: good thing. Both of them have a right hand and.
- 22:10Speaker 1: They can both switch off. But what's your take on that?
- 22:13Speaker 3: Yeah, I was thinking about Lazard earlier, Like, I mean Lazard,
- 22:18Speaker 3: I know he was optimal in the Monday night game
- 22:21Speaker 3: against San fran and he caught that bomb. Was he
- 22:23Speaker 3: optimal the last Monday night game against the Bills too?
- 22:26Speaker 2: Like I feel like the uh yeah, let me let
- 22:29Speaker 2: me pull it out.
- 22:31Speaker 3: Not that it matters, but uh, you know, I just
- 22:33Speaker 3: feel like those prom time games.
- 22:35Speaker 1: Maybe Rogers he was Yeah he went six for a touchdown.
- 22:40Speaker 3: I mean yeah, he's just been killing and I mean yeah,
- 22:42Speaker 3: Davante kind of hurts him a little bit. I don't,
- 22:44Speaker 3: I don't. I think I think Lazard in the flex
- 22:48Speaker 3: as a contrarian piece, maybe off of Garrett and or Adams.
- 22:53Speaker 3: I don't think I would have all three receivers in
- 22:56Speaker 3: my line up. If I did, I would most certainly
- 22:58Speaker 3: include a Rod as well. If you play on being
- 23:01Speaker 3: a winner. But you know, I don't hate Nasee. I am,
- 23:05Speaker 3: I am, I am Nause's I'm the first to beat
- 23:11Speaker 3: up on nause But he looked decent last week. And
- 23:14Speaker 3: I think you can beat this team grounding and pounding,
- 23:17Speaker 3: and like I said, we saw with Jordan Mason, we
- 23:19Speaker 3: saw with Ray Davis. I mean, you know, Todd Dollis
- 23:22Speaker 3: sign Johnson had you know, forty yards on like four carries.
- 23:25Speaker 3: So I think I think you can beat them on
- 23:27Speaker 3: the ground. So I don't hate Nasee. You know, pickings,
- 23:30Speaker 3: I like picking. I'm starting to like this game. I
- 23:32Speaker 3: know it's a low total, but I do like this game.
- 23:36Speaker 3: And not that it has any bearing on this game.
- 23:38Speaker 3: But I don't know if you remember last year Nights
- 23:40Speaker 3: when the Raiders played the Steelers on Sunday night in Vegas,
- 23:43Speaker 3: I mean Davante went for like I want to say,
- 23:46Speaker 3: like one hundred and fifty yards on like twelve catches.
- 23:50Speaker 3: Not that that has anything to do with this other
- 23:51Speaker 3: than the fact that it's a lot of the same
- 23:53Speaker 3: pieces in the secondary and Davante is almost matchup proof
- 23:57Speaker 3: if you will, you know, if he's got a combinan
- 23:59Speaker 3: quarterback and there on the target him, which I think
- 24:01Speaker 3: they'll give him a little bit more targets this week
- 24:04Speaker 3: for a variety of different reasons. So this up wrestling
- 24:07Speaker 3: is tough or tough in the sense that there's a
- 24:09Speaker 3: lot of good pieces in my opinion, and not a
- 24:12Speaker 3: lot of value. So it's gonna be tough to build. Uh,
- 24:14Speaker 3: you know, good a lot of but hopefully we can
- 24:15Speaker 3: get one to the top.
- 24:17Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean I'm sorting two of them out.
- 24:19Speaker 2: Of the window right away, right with with Fields and
- 24:22Speaker 2: uh and Wilson, So I probably won't have any of them.
- 24:25Speaker 2: I'm just not gonna deal with that. And if it
- 24:26Speaker 2: beats me, it beats me, right, that probably increases my
- 24:30Speaker 2: exposure a little bit to Nase.
- 24:32Speaker 1: You do make a good point.
- 24:34Speaker 2: I was gonna say, the one difference between the Jets
- 24:36Speaker 2: defense and the Raiders defense is one's good.
- 24:38Speaker 1: One sucks, but they are a good old report card
- 24:41Speaker 1: here over on the stone. I mean, the Steelers rush
- 24:44Speaker 1: defense is still a C. So it's there.
- 24:47Speaker 2: The Jets run defense excuse me, still see So that's
- 24:51Speaker 2: not much better than than the d that that the
- 24:53Speaker 2: Raiders rush defense has. So hey, maybe old Dusty Nase
- 24:56Speaker 2: can get it there. I mean, this dude was running
- 24:58Speaker 2: down the sidelines making a dive the end zone like
- 25:01Speaker 2: he looked like a vintage, vintage peak Barry Sanders out there.
- 25:05Speaker 2: But hey, nag, you can lose it in a week
- 25:08Speaker 2: just as fast as he can get it. So I
- 25:10Speaker 2: guess we'll we'll find out there. But yeah, I think
- 25:13Speaker 2: you bring up good points there. I was gonna bring up, Yeah,
- 25:16Speaker 2: Devonte Adams last week or last year in an eighteen
- 25:20Speaker 2: to twenty three loss to Pittsburgh here granted he was
- 25:24Speaker 2: in Vegas, had twenty targets, went thirteen for one, seventy
- 25:27Speaker 2: two and two. I mean, if he goes out and
- 25:30Speaker 2: scores forty five fantasy points, say good night, Say good
- 25:33Speaker 2: night to any other roster that you.
- 25:35Speaker 1: Have without Devonte Adams. Is he gonna do that again?
- 25:38Speaker 1: Does history repeat itself? I guess we'll find out.
- 25:40Speaker 2: He does have a better quarterback throwing him the football here,
- 25:42Speaker 2: but he's also has much more guys to compete with,
- 25:45Speaker 2: right with Garrett Wilson. He's got Lazard, He's got Bresee Hall,
- 25:48Speaker 2: He's got Tyler Conklin, He's got Dusty Mike Williams, if
- 25:51Speaker 2: you want to say him, he's got Handwhich's favorite guy,
- 25:53Speaker 2: Jeremy Rutger. I mean, he's got all these guys to
- 25:57Speaker 2: compete with here. So maybe maybe going back on our
- 26:00Speaker 2: word ham here, maybe we throw an old Dusty Rogers
- 26:03Speaker 2: up top, because to to Tambo's point, he can go
- 26:07Speaker 2: to so many different guys in this offense. So I
- 26:09Speaker 2: think I might be backtracking a little bit on my word.
- 26:11Speaker 2: Brestaw is still my favorite captain. I think I might
- 26:14Speaker 2: add in some some Aaron Rodgers captain just because I mean,
- 26:17Speaker 2: like I said, I don't expect much scoring here. If
- 26:20Speaker 2: Rogers throws two touchdowns and they're both to different people,
- 26:24Speaker 2: somehow he clips three hundred yards or something, I mean,
- 26:27Speaker 2: he could easily be the top scoring captain on the slate.
- 26:30Speaker 2: What's your what's your takes on that? Because I mean
- 26:32Speaker 2: I just named six guys that realistically have a legitimate
- 26:35Speaker 2: shot to be involved in this offense from a pass
- 26:38Speaker 2: catching standpoint.
- 26:39Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that's why you play, That's why you
- 26:40Speaker 3: play Rogers, right. I mean he was optimal in that
- 26:43Speaker 3: one prometime game that that uh Tambo nailed. And now
- 26:46Speaker 3: you get Now you get another piece that's gonna slot
- 26:49Speaker 3: in you know one, you know, one A or B
- 26:52Speaker 3: behind Wilson. So I like a ron up top. If
- 26:55Speaker 3: you goes for three fifty and three to three different receivers,
- 26:58Speaker 3: he's going to be optimal. He's you're gonna need him
- 27:00Speaker 3: in the Captain He can't run, which is scary. Pittsburgh
- 27:04Speaker 3: obviously has TJ. Watt, has Cam Hayward. They are missing
- 27:07Speaker 3: this herbig another defensive end that's pretty good and you
- 27:10Speaker 3: can have against the Cowboys on that Sunday night game.
- 27:12Speaker 3: But I think if they choose to sit back in
- 27:15Speaker 3: the pocket and let him fire away, he's gonna get
- 27:17Speaker 3: it out quick and he's gonna get it to a
- 27:19Speaker 3: lot of different receivers that we know he's gonna do.
- 27:22Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I just think Devanta Adams is on
- 27:24Speaker 2: the same wavelength too, right. Naturally, his hamstring's is automatically good.
- 27:28Speaker 2: I mean hindsight twenty twenty medical state. Yeah, I mean
- 27:32Speaker 2: it's that getting the frick out of Vegas and dealing
- 27:34Speaker 2: with Aidan O'Connell throwing you football right and whoever else
- 27:37Speaker 2: that they throw in there. But I mean he still
- 27:40Speaker 2: knows right, especially under pressure. I mean, how many times
- 27:43Speaker 2: did Rogers have no offensive line in Green Bay? I
- 27:45Speaker 2: know all the haters and the chat are gonna hate
- 27:48Speaker 2: on me for bringing up green Bay every time, but
- 27:50Speaker 2: it is Aaron Rodgers on the slate, it is DeVante
- 27:51Speaker 2: Adams on the slate, and I'm applying it to this game.
- 27:54Speaker 2: But he was under pressure how much in Green Bay,
- 27:56Speaker 2: and DeVante Adams just found those quick routes right to
- 27:59Speaker 2: get him there. So I think between him, Lazard and
- 28:02Speaker 2: and Garrett Wilson Breese all a dump balls conquering through
- 28:04Speaker 2: the middle. I don't hate Rogers up top, so he
- 28:08Speaker 2: actually might be moving up my rank. I think I
- 28:10Speaker 2: put him third behind bres Hall Pickens and then uh
- 28:15Speaker 2: then Aaron Rodgers, I think, and then Garrett Wilson would
- 28:19Speaker 2: be kind of my fourth fourth guy there. So I
- 28:22Speaker 2: wanted to bring that up as as we kind of
- 28:24Speaker 2: round out the show here. I mean, I think we
- 28:27Speaker 2: hit on everything. I think Blazzard is still a solid
- 28:29Speaker 2: play at seventy four hundred. You talk about nobody wanting
- 28:31Speaker 2: to play Allen Tizard, I think this is a spot
- 28:34Speaker 2: he's still expensive. DeVante Adams comes over, but there's no
- 28:37Speaker 2: I mean you think Aaron Rodgers is just gonna stop
- 28:39Speaker 2: going to Allen Lazard. I mean he's gone to Allen
- 28:41Speaker 2: Lazard all year. I mean this getting this dude's getting
- 28:45Speaker 2: six seven targets a game and getting end.
- 28:47Speaker 1: Zone looks, red zone looks.
- 28:48Speaker 2: So overall, I think we broke it down pretty good.
- 28:52Speaker 2: I don't expect much scoring in this game, so I'm
- 28:54Speaker 2: going on more of the safety the floor guys. Outside
- 28:57Speaker 2: of the Steelers quarterback situation, I just wanted to deal
- 28:59Speaker 2: with that, and uh, you've got to pay a price
- 29:02Speaker 2: to to deal with that. So if you wanted to
- 29:04Speaker 2: take a chance, right and guess on one, if it's
- 29:07Speaker 2: Russell Wilson, if it's Justin Fields, who's gonna get all
- 29:10Speaker 2: the snaps and that. But I think at their elevated
- 29:13Speaker 2: price points, with the uncertainty, it's just a spot that
- 29:16Speaker 2: I'm gonna kind of stay away from. And just get it,
- 29:18Speaker 2: get there, get my exposure to those guys, through the
- 29:21Speaker 2: U through the friar moves of the world, the Pickings
- 29:23Speaker 2: of the world, the Nags of the world, the Jalen Warrens,
- 29:25Speaker 2: the pass catchers in Boswell is kind of where I'm going.
- 29:28Speaker 2: But any any closing room marks him before we get
- 29:31Speaker 2: out of here. You're on mute donkey com Yeah.
- 29:38Speaker 3: Man, it's been a couple of shows. I was Rocket
- 29:40Speaker 3: and Rolling. Yeah, but I can't wait to watch it.
- 29:42Speaker 3: I'm looking forward to seeing uh and DeVante in another
- 29:46Speaker 3: in another Green, all those other Green people. They're gonna
- 29:49Speaker 3: be unhappy. But you got you got the you got
- 29:52Speaker 3: the band back together, uh, Mark Shimura and Jordan Nelson
- 29:56Speaker 3: her next so uh well Shimore was probably with far but.
- 29:59Speaker 2: We're not on how the baby we got freaking Jaya
- 30:02Speaker 2: Reed certified stud over here now but yeah, no excellent,
- 30:06Speaker 2: excellent closer remarks and Antonio Gibson to the medical tent
- 30:09Speaker 2: there for anyone who played this dusty showdown Slate that
- 30:12Speaker 2: we broke down on Friday here that's going on right
- 30:14Speaker 2: now in London there between the two of the league's
- 30:17Speaker 2: best in terms of losses on the season. But that's
- 30:22Speaker 2: going to do it for this quick hit here for
- 30:25Speaker 2: this Sunday night football. Hopefully your main slate's going great.
- 30:28Speaker 2: You are not a member yet at ship a Nation.
- 30:30Speaker 2: NBA's right around the corner. NBA fifteen is the code
- 30:33Speaker 2: fifteen percent off any membership plan including optimizer. If you
- 30:36Speaker 2: get the all access passed eighty five dollars a month
- 30:40Speaker 2: takes it down obviously, the fifteen dollars there from one
- 30:43Speaker 2: hundred down to eighty five. You get all of our
- 30:45Speaker 2: sports including our in house optimizer, which I mean, this
- 30:48Speaker 2: thing is absolutely the stone nuts for building lineup, especially
