• 0:14
  Speaker 1: It's Being Your Man, m G. Marcus Grant joined by
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: Michael F. Florio and Lakwan Jones. We've made it to
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: Thanksgiving week. At this point, it's like the most wonderful
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: time of the year.
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: Absolutely. I mean I'm watching the holiday movies and shows
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: and stuff like that. I mean, it's that time of
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: the year and let's hold off. Christmas is not Christmas yet, folks, let'st.
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: I mean, there's things killing. But besides Thanksgiving movie.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: Playing trains and automobiles, I guess I've lost the war
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: in my house. Home Alone has already aired.
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: Oh no, they started playing elfin like first week in November.
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: All I know is watching Home Alone every year I'm
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: reminded of how terrible the McAllister family is. All awful people.
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: And then the next year they just forget their kid
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: again again. Yeah. I hate Home Alone two one I like,
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: well biggest.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: They were both kind of like a live action Tom
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: and Jerry cartoon.
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: Is really that is true, and so remake it though.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: I think you should make I should I think you
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: should remake them. But Harry and Marv are like leftist
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: anti heroes who haven't eat the rich vibe to them.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: That's just my opinion. Writ'st on that note. On that note,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: let's get into the show. We got a lot to
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: do on the show, a lot to do on the
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: show today. We got starts and sits for week thirteen.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Plus we're going over every game on these Sunday and
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: Monday slate plus giving you our sleepers for the week.
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: So let's get started with some of these starts and sits.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Of course, you can see Michael Florio's analysis for all
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: of them on the interwebs at NFL dot com slash
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: start sit.
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: We'll start at the beginning with the quarterback position.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: Who is your start?
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: Who are your starts? I should say, and who are
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: your sits? This week? I'm playing Joe Burrow. You've had
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: to wait this long. He threw for over eight hundred
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: yards and nine touchdowns and two games against the Ravens
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: last year. I'm playing Jackson Dart. You've had to wait
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: not as long as Joe Burrow, but you still have
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: had to wait. And he's averaged twenty three Fantasy points
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: per game as a starter in the pats of struggles
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: against the pass bo Nicks gets a fantastic matchup against
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: the Commanders here, I think he gets a big bounce
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: back opportunity, and then Jordan Love he excels against Man
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: and the Lions play Man at the highest rate. And
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: then my Brock party sit seemed a lot spicier until
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: he went out and he had a Nathan Peterman first half,
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: but I still think he tried to get away from
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: him against the Browns. I'm sitting Daniel jonesy. I don't
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: think you should play many quarterbacks against Houston Caleb Williams
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: because that Eagles defense is really Ben strong and now
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: it's starting to look like CJ. Stroud and he's the
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: more appealing name. But I'm sitting both Texans against the Colts.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: I mean, look, I think Brock perty, as they said,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: for multiple reasons. One because of the Browns too, because
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: it's supposed to be in the twenties and snowy potentially
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: in he is an Arizona guy.
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: Oh so he doesn't do well in cold.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: Straight up from the desert where he is giant. He
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: did play his college ball at Iowa State, so maybe
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: think of it what you will for that.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: But Miles Garrett though that's that's a big reason.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: Also that a reason not to start brought through this week.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: You are a bow Laver laquse, You're maybe the biggest
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: bowl leiaver of us all. This actually does seem like
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: a really good matchup for him.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, coming out of du buy, hopefully you hit the
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: reset button they can get on track very early. I
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: do think this is a lay a matchup. You kind
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: of have your way with this commander's defense. Honestly, you
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: have QB one on the table. They have allowed eight
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: quarterbacks this season to put up high fantasy numbers. I'm
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: talking twenty burgers. So bow Knicks obviously having that rushing upside,
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: and we know he has the firepower by Franklin R. J. Harvey.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: Hopefully we get him unlock coming out of the buy.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: But there's a lot of opportunities that I think bow
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: Knick's going to have them in striking distance. So I'm
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: expecting big numbers this week from both.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: One of my bold predictions for the week is that
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: maybe it's not even that bold, but that bo Knicks
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: throws three touchdown passes.
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: I can make it bolder and.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: Say four if that makes you feel better, for sure,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: I got to sleep all four touchdown passes for bow knicks.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: That's my bold locketion for the week against the Commanders
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: coming up Onday, Sunday Night, Sunday Night Football tonight. Also
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: got the running back position here because one name that
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: is kind of a return, hopefully for fantasy managers. But
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: you're starts to sit at running back this year.
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: Lots of rookies, and while we're talking about Bowl prediction,
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: my first start running back is Trevion My Bowl prediction
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: is one hundred and fifty to two because Giants, Giants, Yeah,
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: exactly Like I don't need to give you more examples,
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: and that O'marion Hampton. If he's back against the Raiders,
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: I think he is a must play. Travis Etn. We
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: all keep writing him off, but he just keeps getting
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: it done and he has a great matchup.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: R J.
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: Harvey I think is in a smash spot this week
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: against the Commanders, and then DeAndre Swift as a sit
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: It pains me, but he played behind Kyle Mnungai last
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: week and the Eagles are really tough. Aaron Jones gets
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: a really tough matchup against Seattle with a first time quarterback.
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: We don't know how that offense is gonna look. David
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: Montgomery is completely trending in the wrong direction, and the
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: Packers are a good run defense, and then Tyrone Tracy
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: Junior was nice to see him take over last week.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: But the Patriots are still an elite run dye maybe
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: the best them and I think are the two best
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: run defenses in football.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean the Pacers run defense has been very
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: good so far this year. Omaron Hampton, though it's been
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: a while. I mean, eh, do you like obviously you
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: like him this week?
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: Correct?
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: Does this also mean are we dropping Kamani Vidal? We
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: just put him on the bitch. How are we handling that?
• 5:18
  Speaker 3: That's the question?
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: Okay, the fantasy streets are chirping and barking about Kamanie
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: Vidohl if we bench him forever? Drop him? I think
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: Amaron Hampton, though there may be a ramp up period
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: because that's what we saw at the beginning of the season.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: And also this Chargers backfield, we've seen it operate as
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: a one two punch briefly with Naji Harris and a
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: Mari and Hampton. I think Camani Vidal still has a
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: role in this backfield. I'm not dropping him just yet
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: because Hampton's just coming back from a bad injury. I
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: would say where it might take some time for him
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: to get back in the swing. Look, if he's healthy,
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: I'm going to be starting him because he's shown us
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: RB one numbers before he went out with injury. So
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: if healthy, he's getting the start. But Kamani Videll, I
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: don't think we dropped him just yet. Let's just have
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: the watch on how this backfield and ynamic between both
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: of them, because if I doubt can ball won't give
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: an opportunity.
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: It's a handcuff season.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Yes, I agree, cuff and season right now? Yeah, absolutely football.
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: He's still cold outsize.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: I kind of want to spend this forward a little
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: bit because I know there are people, you know, if
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: you were even if you were not in playoff contention
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: and you're watching us, thank you for hanging in with us. Yeah,
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: there are people you know who are maybe starting to
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: think about next year as well. I know for Nazie Harris,
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: he's on a one year deal, so I don't think
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: he's gonna come back. I can't imagine he comes back,
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: but could we see this next year? Is maybe kind
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: of a two headed monster. In Los Angeles.
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: I think Viddell will have a role, and I agree
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: with o Q like he has shown he could play
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: at a pretty high level. But if Hampton is healthy
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: and he gets the whole off season and everything, I
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: wouldn't be surprised if he returns Round one value. I
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: don't know where exactly the ad pople settle yet, but
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: I think Hampton could be a top ten running back.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: I think I'm good off the first round running backs though, man,
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: I have had not great luck Gente sa Quan. It's
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: just been hard. I think Gibbs is the only first
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: round running back that we can crown, but Hampton's probably like.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: There's another one that you're not. Actually who's been good
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: for fantasy? Who's been great? He's been really good for fantasy.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: I know what you're gonna say, but I'm not going
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: to say it, but you're going to get me to
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: say it. Christian mccaffe the and Jonathan Taylor to Jay
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: was really a round running back. I mean, that's some
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: good value. The first round guys who have returned value
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: have been seeing Jimi or Gibbs.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: That's kindably it don't out there too. I know you're right, touchdowns.
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: It depends.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: I'm worried about Jeon next year. If this Falcons offense
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: does not take a step forward, it.
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: Might be a completely different offense.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: It's not your fault, it's really it's really your fault
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: around you.
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: Jon had eight rushing touchdowns instead of four his season
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: because he's averaging twenty per game right now.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: That's because he's getting the targets and catches and PPR formats,
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: Thank you God, but gee and anything else was kind
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: of scary looking at.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: They don't ask how, they ask how many exactly he's
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: numbers at this point. So we earlier in the week
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: we told you what we thought was going to happen
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: for Thursday, Thanksgiving Day games and the Black Friday game
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: as well. But of course there's still a whole lot
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: more games to go. Nobody is on a bye this week.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: All thirty two teams are in action, so let's dive
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: into some of these SaaS Saturday Sunday Sunday games as well.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: Start with the Rams and the Panthers. Rams obviously playing
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: great football right now, Carolina still in the hunt for
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: the division lead there in the NFC South, coming off
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: with Toelugh loss on Monday Night, Rico Dowdell didn't have
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: the greatest game in a matchup that seemed pretty favorable.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: This matchup not nearly as favorable on paper, Florio, can
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: you start Rico Dowdle against the Rams?
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: Yes, Look, I think you need to understand that the
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: chances that he doesn't have a big week are higher
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: than they normally are. I don't love that they got
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: away completely from the run last week, Like he had
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: numerous opportunities near the goal line and they just weren't
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: considering him. I do think they go in and they
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: fix that, but he was their leading receiver. Like the
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: numbers are bad from last week, but he is still
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: so involved and we've seen him go off against many
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: defenses this year. We've seen him put up some big plays.
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: Like where I only have Rico on one team, but
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: where I have him, I haven't considered sitting you.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: No, Yeah, I mean that's the thing. I mean, he's
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: still playing about sixty five percent of the snaps. I
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: think he did on Monday night, but Laclon, there wasn't
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: a lot of Cuba Hubbard. I know he's not efficient,
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: but he still seems to be getting the opportunity.
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: He seems like he's still going to be in that
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: backfield and involved in some capacity. But I do think
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: they'll need that one two punch this week against the Rams.
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: They're going to need to do something because it's going
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: to be an uphill battle for Rico being that we've
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: seen this trenches kind of dominate running backs on the
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: other side and keeping them out of the end zone.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: So I do think, like, if I'm in a situation
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: with the mari and Hampton, mhy not start him over Rico.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: That's just like I feel like Rico has held us
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: down when we dealt with these running back injuries and
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: now there's no buys and guys starting to return, Like
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: I think there's a bar where it's like, Okay, you
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: could sit to the side now and let me get
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: my guys that you know, really need this opportunity to
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: put up Fantasy points this week.
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: I think that's the other part of having Rico, right
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: you you added him probably in a pinch because you
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: needed help somewhere. He was never expected to be your
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: main running back, so in theory, you have ways to
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: work around this sort of thing if you needed to
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: other part of the game. I just want to mention this,
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: Like I mentioned this on NFL Fantasy Live. You know
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: who the number one scoring rookie receiver in fantasy is
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: right now. It's not a Mecca a Buka. It's Terror McMillan, McMillan, Terro.
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: McMillan is the wide receiver eight overall.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: And I know it hasn't been flashy, like he hasn't
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: had any of those huge blow up games necessarily. I
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: think his best game is like twenty twenty five points
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: something like that. Good, not spectacular. He's just been steady,
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: just consistently double digit points.
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: Bookcase proof that if you get out the gate running hot.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: You can your storyline the whole year. But McMillan has
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: been really, really good, and I feel like we haven't
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: talked enough about him.
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: If he scores one, he's putting up another one. That's
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: just how it's been. This is how it's going to
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: go with Teed.
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: Costco player man score six thousand bunk. That's what it is.
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: Who it is forty nine ers at the Browns. We
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: already saw that brock perty is a sits on Michael f.
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: Florio's list.
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: We know Lakwan that Shiduar Sanders is going to get
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: the start against the forty nine ers. We also know
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: the weather is going to be kind of nasty there
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: on the shores of Lake Erie, so understanding that people
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: are going to be starting Christian McCaffrey pretty much regardless
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: anybody else on either side of this game, that you
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: would feel okay starting.
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: Harri Fannin Jr. I think he's been the one more reliable,
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: you know, target that you can have with the bad weather.
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: You could explort, you can expect like short to the
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: line of scrimmage, you know, runs and design plays for him.
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: And I think being that he is the guy that
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: has kind of made this Browns offense look anywhere near stable,
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: to have positive receptions, to have positive gains on that offense,
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: I honestly think he feels like the safest bet here.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure about Brock Purdy. I'm not sure about
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: Juwan Jennings and the people's jewels of how he's going
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: to be playing. So I do at the end of
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: the day, if I'm looking for stability out of this
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: game with bad weather, it has to be hero Fana Jr.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: I would hope that in the week or so that
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: Juwan Jennys can ice.
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: Up a little bit. You have recovery time after shock. Bro.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: That was crazy.
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: I was like, why is he so? And then.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: He is just like, Oh, that's that's why he's fighting,
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: because it was like.
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: Of all people, Juwan Jenny is like, what what am
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: I missing? Like, Oh, that's why there's beef there understandable.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: Texans at the Colts, we saw you got Daniel Jones
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: on the side of things, Florio, but kind of a
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: vibe check. And when I when I asked that is
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: does it means he's going to be just mid against
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: the Texans or bad?
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: I think bad. Look you saw what they did to
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: my guy, the best top two quarterback walking the planet.
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: Uh and and they were able to completely shut him down.
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: And the thing about Daniel Jones is it's he's kind
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: of been trending down the last couple of weeks. Interceptions
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: have become a thing. The fantasy production hasn't been as
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: high as I think. It's a good thing for the
• 13:08
  Speaker 3: Colts though, because they were they were trending towards giving
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: him franchise quarterback money and making the same mistake that
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: the Giants did. I think if you could get Jones
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: on a look, you don't have to give him like
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: a rookie deal, but if you get him on a
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: middle I never like teams that overpay the quarterback just
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: because it's a quarterback. So if you get him on
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: a friendlier contract, I think that's a good thing. But
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: for fantasy this week, there's no way I'm playing him
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: against the Texans.
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: This is where like the NFL could take a page
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: from the NBA, like the whole mid level exception that
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: players getting that sort of thing. That's because I remember,
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: like when the Giants signed Daniel Jones to that car,
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: like literally every single person was like, that's a bad
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: ideas is.
• 13:49
  Speaker 3: Like, well, it's his turn. It doesn't have to do
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: don't know what I mean. There's a few elite quarterbacks
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: that deserve that kind of money. Not every single quarterback
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: deserves it.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: I always laugh. And it happens in like all industry
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: and all sorts of things when like the people who
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: were in charge of a thing or can make a
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: thing happen to like, well that's.
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: Just the way it is. We don't like it, but
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: that's just how it has to be. No, does it
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: control over you have the power. You have the power.
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: You don't have to just frog walk yourself to the
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: edge of the cliff, Like you don't have to do that,
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: like like Drew Petson being like we didn't like the
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: fourth court and fourth down play calls, Like dude, you
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: called it.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: I'll trying to find a guy who did this, like
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: what was happening. By the way, So before we get
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: off of this game, And an interesting thing that I
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: did see is that apparently the Texans are giving up
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: the most yards per scramble attempt ten yards per attempt.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: The trick is you just have to get past their
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: pass rush for you to do. Yeah, it's so difficult
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: thing I do somehow if you get escaped that prison,
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: like you're gonna run free. It's just getting out of jail.
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: That's the hard escaping. To Hunter and Will, I understand
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: that there's just not.
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: They rushed for and had two spies at times last week,
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: which he tells you everything you need to know about
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: the Bills receiving room. But yeah, that's how they attack.
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: They will get out wid they're gonna get after a
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: little bit. Saints at the Dolphins, we know Alvin Kamara
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: dealing with some injury issues and not likely to play
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: this week.
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: Dolphins a great matchup for running backs.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: Devin Neil has been hot on the fantasy streets, at
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: least in the fantasy waiver wires. Lakwan, is it really
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: Devin Neil season?
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: This week?
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: Expectations have to be pulled back a little bit, like,
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: I don't want folks stick him in as RB two
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: or RB one. This is flex territory, your expectations. As
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: you look at last week, right, he put up eleven
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: fantasy points season high and snaps and opportunities. This dude
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: ran thirty routes. Okay, there's only two other running backs
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: who did this this season. That was Christian McCaffrey, Lamar
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: and Hampton. So he has the PPR upside, and he
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: has the upside on the ground because we know the
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: Dolphins struggle at stopping the run. So I'm looking at
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: this as like, hey, if I have to stick him in,
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: it has to be the absolute need. It has to
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: be one of those things where it's like I have
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: no other options because when we're looking at looking at
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: him on the ground, he's still getting less than for
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: youarship of carry like Alvin Kamara the only one at
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: that in that backfield in that capacity, and that's shown
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: us anything positive is Kendrey Miller, who was injured right now.
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: So I'm not really looking hoping for Devin Neil to
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: be on the ground to get all these yards. I'm
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: looking for the targets, the dump offs and so he
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: can get upfield and make some big plays. So other
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: than that, flex expectations this week for me, I.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: Feel like the Saints are experiencing the soft bigotry of
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: low expectations. Like we look at the Saints because the
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: offense is bad. I mean, they're tied with the Raiders
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: for the fewest points scored. You know, they have a
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: ton of turnovers. But we're like, hey, there's an opportunity.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: There's a guy who's healthy and breathing and might get carries,
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: and like we we try to tell ourselves a story
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: where we get excited about it and yeah, really, maybe
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: the answer is like no.
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: And then, like most Saints stories, Taysom Hill comes in rooms.
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, it's the worst.
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: You have the goal on work carries, he threw two passes.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: I just I don't understand. And again, I think we
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: talked about the on Monday. This is the third coach.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: Like at first you're like, okay, well him and Sean
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: Payton just you know, they have a connection. Sean Payton's
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: doing it, and then maybe you could, like with Dennis Allen, you'
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: kind of like, all right, well Dennis Allen was there,
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: Kelan Moore came from a completely different team, Like.
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: I am really surprised. Well now that you bring that
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: up that Taysom Hill hasn't ended up on the Broncos yet.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it seems like a joker role.
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: I'm done.
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: At the end of this year. Sean Payn's gonna look
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: around be like, yeah, just hav An ingram things, not
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: cutting a Taysom Hey, thirty six year old Taysom Hill,
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: like who just had a year bag too?
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: Like he got a good deal for a guy who
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: doesn't really play a position.
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't, I don't understand it. You know, we
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: have checked in with our old palmatt Okata, who's like
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: the biggest Taysom Hill stand there is.
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: He also loves Kyler, so he's probably has mixed right.
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's been a rough year for our poweratt Okanda
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: for sure. Time to check out the first to score
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: odds for some days Bill Steelers matchup. No surprise, the
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: guys at the top of the list James Cook. James Cook.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: The third is that what we're going with now for him?
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: So he goes with okay, Jason is with the best odds,
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: followed by Josh Allen, and you got Jalen Warren, Khalil Shakir,
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: and Kenneth Gainwell, who has gained well over the last.
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: Couple of weeks.
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: What you like that, whether it gets in the end zone, lakwan,
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: any of these guys are really get you excited about
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: who's gonna score the first touchdown there?
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: It's always gonna be James Cook. I mean, if Joe
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: Brady understands the assignment right, give it to James right.
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: If we can get on the same page, just hand
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: it to James Cook. I mean, I just want the
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: James Cook to be cooking. I know Florio does too.
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: I know Florio has his little thing against Joe Brady,
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: but I think James Cook is going to bring this little.
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: Thing against Joe Brady as Yeah.
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: I mean the thing that stood out to me most
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: of all is DK metcalf isn't even on that list.
• 18:56
  Speaker 3: On that like what is going on.
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: I mean, look, when you have Arthur Smith on the sticks,
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: it's going to be his system. He's going to control it.
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: And without Aaron Rodgers or limited Aaron Rodgers, we have
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: to have our expectations pulled back.
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: And say Steelers tight ends because we there, you go
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: figure it out. Let's go, John new let's go.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: I mean, look, I know people in fantasy have talked
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: about the idea of just having like a team position, right,
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: so you can start, you know, like I guess it
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: would work, right, you just start Steelers tight end and
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: whatever happens, you know, you're You're fine.
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: I play in the league that does that for kickers,
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: which is kind of a weird position.
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: To do it for me, Yeah, because like how many
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: teams run multiple kickers.
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: But if God forbids something ever happens, you get the points.
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: Just know, I'm at the league meeting every year voting
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: that we don't play with kickers.
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: No, oh, I like you.
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: I like kickers because I like I like the randomness. No,
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: I just like to I like the randomness because I
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: got this is my analogy, right, the if you are
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: a great video game player, right, you don't really worry
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: about another great video game player because they know all
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: the moves. You know, the person you worry about is
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: the button masher, right, because like that person's shooting fireballs
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: and you and you don't know when they're coming because
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: they don't know when they're coming, right, Like that's and
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: that's kind of what kickers are. They're just button mashers.
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: And it all sort of levels the playing field amongst everybody.
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: I got my home league to finally get rid of them,
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: and then I lost this year because the defense went
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: off against me. Maybe we need to reevaluate defenses as well.
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: Side notes to all of this, by the way, before
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: we get into the game a little bit further, DK
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: Metcalf did not practice on Wednesday. They're expecting him to
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: be a limited participant, So just something to.
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: Keep in mind as get closer to the weekend.
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: But as we get into this game, Florio, you as
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: the noted bill's honk on this show, if you had
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: to start a bill not named Josh Allen or James Cook,
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: it would be clear.
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: And to me, I think he is a really good
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: start this week. Not only have the Steelers allowed the
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: most Fantasy points per game two wide, receivers, but they
• 20:48
  Speaker 3: have been getting cooked by slot receivers as of late.
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: Since Week eight, they've allowed the most yak to slot receivers.
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: And I'm I said this on Fantasy Live. I'm gonna
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: say it again. He has to get yack because they do.
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: It is like Joe Brady made him sign a contract
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: or something that says, we will never use you downfield.
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: Every single one of his targets, not only will you
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: see the yellow line, it'll probably be behind the blue
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: line of scrimmage that everyone loves to see when their
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: receivers are catching the ball, because that's all they let
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: him do is run screens. But I do think this
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: is a week where he'll be able to use because
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: he's one of the best YAK receivers in the NFL,
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: So I think he'll be able to use that talent
• 21:24
  Speaker 3: to have success in this matchup.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: I mean he has to be when they're basically just
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: giving him extended handoffs.
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: Can't win downfield. But Joe Brady's like, no, no, no, no,
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: That's why we have Brandon Cooks. Now.
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: That is the worst when you're when your fantasy receiver
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: catches the ball with a line of scrimmage line still
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: on the screen, Like that's a hard way to live.
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: Man. It's just the three catches for like negative three
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: yards one game. I'm like, what are we doing there? Man?
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: But still catch you two point seven?
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: People love that.
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: No, we cannot we cannot accept this. We can be
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: better as a society. I demand more of us as
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: a society. Things actually been kind of interesting in the
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: Steelers backfield. Yeah, so I ask you this question this
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: week against the Bills, Jalen Warren and if Gainwell neither
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: or both both? Why not both?
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: I mean honestly, Yeah, you're looking at this backfield and
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: you look at last week both of them put up
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: twelve Fantasy points. This is another lay a matchup for
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: them on the ground, and honestly, they're splitting the roles.
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: We're seeing Jalen Warren bounce off the tackles yards after
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: three to contact. I think he's going to be the
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: guy that gets the points on the ground. There's going
• 22:26
  Speaker 2: to be ugly runs that he's going to be able
• 22:28
  Speaker 2: to get, but he may fall into the end zone
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: because he's still getting those red zone opportunities. Gainwell, he's explosive,
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: he has the juice in between the tackles. But he's
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: also a guy that can get in open space and
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: in the passing game and find relevance in fantasy that
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: way and give us those highs that we've seen. We've
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: seen him put up RB one numbers with max opportunities.
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: We've also now seen him put up RB two numbers
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: even with Jalen Warren healthy and ready to go. So
• 22:50
  Speaker 2: I think this matchup on the ground is served up
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: for both of them. So I can see myself putting
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: Jalen Warren at the flex. I could see myself putting
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: game well at the flex over a lot of other
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: running backs like a Trey Ben and who's trying to
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: trend back to come back.
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he said, Ugly Runs. Can we make that a
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: segment on the show? On this show?
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: Right? Well take it because I know, you know there's
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: another show that does angry runs, like.
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: Running backs getting absolutely blown.
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: Up, like just or guys who like run back and
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: forth and like you know, like the distance they cover
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: is like twenty yards in the.
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: Game like nothing. Yeah, they're gonna make this a thing.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: Yes, Ugly Runs. Kwap, can we write that down somewhere
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: so we can do that, like the.
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: Brains of angry runs by the way. There, Well, yeah,
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: you started.
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: You can add this to the resume. You created angry
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: runs and you champion ugly runs.
• 23:33
  Speaker 3: There you go, it is.
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: We got some more Week thirteen previews coming up. Stick
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: around for that and plenty more more here on the
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: NFL Fantasy Football show, Keeping going. That's a thing, right,
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: keeping going on the Sunday and Monday slid Falcons at
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: the Jets, Florio, do you see any potential sleepers in
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: this one?
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: I think Kyle Pitts is potentially a streaming tight end
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: if you're with no Drake London because he did have
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: a team high five targets, but a jet John Metchi
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: he hit seven targets last week from Tyrod Taylor is
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: a touchdown and double digit fantasy points in each of
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: the last two. Donnie Mitchell is the like take the
• 24:13
  Speaker 3: top off the defense guy, but Metchi is the possession receiver.
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: So as long as Garrett Wilson is out, I do
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: think Metchi is a sleeper.
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: I mean, and Tyrod Taylor is god him to the
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: list of backup quarterbacks who at least have sort of
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: unlocked his wide receiver like granted, it's not Garrett Wilson, right,
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: Like he's working with what he has to work with.
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: But you know, John Metchi has become a thing.
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: You know how we joke like all the backups are
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: in a crew and they're like throw two best receivers,
• 24:37
  Speaker 3: Like that's John Metchi. What do you want to.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: You know, Tyron seems to just consistently come into situations
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: where he loses his best receivers, right like when he
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: was with the Bills and they sent both a Marii
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: Cooper and Robert Woods to the Rams.
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and he still ended the drought there. Baby,
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: I love tyrod Ty God forever, man tie out forever.
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah. You mentioned, by the way, Drake London doubtful for
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: this week, so it seems very unlikely he's going to play.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: So you know, maybe Kyle Pitts, maybe Darnell Mooney. Yeah,
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: Mooney's another one too.
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: Like David Seals. I mean he scored a touchdown last week.
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: That's a deep sleep for those fourteen sixteen team leagues.
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah why not?
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, him in there.
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: And you know, if you're into the sort of thing,
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: they signed kJ Osborne to their their practice squad too.
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: Jim Roval and the Bills man for for oldest Watcherson.
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: Who knows, maybe they go get maybe they go good.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: Elijah Moore, now that he's out there on the who
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: knows Cardinals at the Buccaneers. You sort of touched on
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: this earlier, Lakwan. Trey Benson trying to work his way back.
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: They opened his practice window a couple of weeks ago.
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: He wasn't quite ready for last week's game against Jacksonville.
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: Trending in the right direction this week. Would you start
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: him against Tampa if he does come back.
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: No, because you said that via Vada in that mineral
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: of that field. I do think Trey Benson, he's shown
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: us that the arrow was pointing up, but his fantasy
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: high the season is ten fantasy points. Like, we haven't
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: seen anything that has made us bully him into our
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: starting lineup. So I'm taking the wait and see approach
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: with Trey Benson, just to see this dynamic of how
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: this backfield is going to be looking like I am
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: hopeful now with Jakobe Brissett as the quarterback elevating this offense,
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: This Cardinals offense has a new makeup. This is a
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: top ten offense right now. I think in total yards
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: for a game. You're looking at the opportunities that they're making.
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: Greg George Michael Wilson steppening up. I'm curious to see
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: how Trey Benson looks with this new makeup in this
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: Carlins offense.
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean the thing that we did like about
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: Trey Benson when he was there, he was pretty much
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: the guy. Yeah in that backfield. You know, they lost
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: James Connor and they lose Trey Benson. They've sort of
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: been trying to piece it together. They have not been
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: good running the football since Benson went down. Who knew,
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: by the way, all this other part of this is
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: Bucky Irving could be back as well, but they've said
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: Todd Bole say he could be on a pitch count
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: if he is able to go in this one. So
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: we could still see some Rashad White, some Seawanucker mixed
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: in there.
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: Here is Sean Tucker, man, please send We already seen
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: Rashad White, we know what he is. Just give a
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: Sean Tucker.
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: I'm just I'm just telling you what I know. That's
• 27:09
  Speaker 3: all Jaguars at the Titans.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: This this game used to be like a staple of
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: Thursday night football. I mean it was a tradition unlike
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: any other Jags Titans. Maybe a color rush uniform, something
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: like that. Derek he Derek Henry trucking defensive backs like
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: it used to be, like the way we lived on
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: Thursday nights, Oriol Travis Etn No playing well, Beshall Tuten
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: playing not so well? Are we back in on Travis Etn?
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, like I was saying, I think for a while now,
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: the fantasy community has been trying to write off Travis
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: Etn and get excited about other running backs there, but
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: it just keeps coming back to Etn, and he has
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: played at a high level as of late. In fact,
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: like he's leading them in goal on carries right now.
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: He's leading them with fifty nine percent of the snaps
• 27:57
  Speaker 3: on the season, sixty six percent of the running back carries,
• 27:59
  Speaker 3: sixty five five percent of the running back targets, like
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: all of the volume is going his way. And then
• 28:04
  Speaker 3: they get the Titans, who have struggled against the run
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: all year six most yards, second most touchdowns, They give
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: up explosive run something above average rate. Yeah, I think
• 28:12
  Speaker 3: you very much so played Travis Etms.
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean it's funny because he's another guy. It
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: just it seems like they're trying to get away from
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: him and they just can't, you know, either because the
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: guys behind him don't produce, or Etn steps up. They
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: need him to.
• 28:25
  Speaker 2: Drount up to the jacks is Oh line because they're
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: they're moving bodies from him. So I think that's why
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: he's getting such that positive yardage. I mean, look at
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: his yards before contact. It's top of the league. And
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: it's kind of crazy to see Travis Etn run away
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: with this RB one batch that we could put on
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: him because he's hitting those fantasy eyes.
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: I feel like he's gonna be another guy next year.
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: We're going to talk about him in draft.
• 28:43
  Speaker 3: It's gonna be like, yeah, Traves ETL and he's like
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: Kyen Williams right, Like they'll draft a running back in
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: like the sixth round and everyone will be like, that's
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: the real.
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: Guy, and then at the end of it be like, hey,
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: Travisytn is like a low end RB one, Like what
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: are you doing here?
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: Is what it is?
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: Vikings at Seahawks. Maybe the big story in this one
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: is that JJ McCarthy is still in concussion protocol. He
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: is at practice, although Max Brosmer is taking first team
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: reps for the Vikings this week. So I questioned to you, Lakwantis,
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: will Seahawks DST be the top scorer in this game?
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: Absolutely, if you see them on the whider, start them
• 29:19
  Speaker 2: this week, because I know Max is probably looking like
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: me against one of the more physical defenses. Like bro
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: when we've seen this Seahawks defense really get actor the
• 29:28
  Speaker 2: quarterback position. I mean right now they are fourth and sacks,
• 29:31
  Speaker 2: third in QB hits, in first and QB pressures. This
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: is a very physical trenches that are going to be
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: coming at him that want to put their hands on him.
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: So I do think at the end of the day,
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: there's going to be a lot of takeaways. There's going
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: to probably be some strip fumbles. There's going to be
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: a lot of opportunities for this Seahawks defense to put
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: up points, maybe a pick six. Who knows, there's going
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: to be a lot of opportunities on the table for him.
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: When I do my Sleepers column every week, and I
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: always you know, you know, teams to pick for certain
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: matchups or whatever, right, and like when I'm looking for
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: some d defenses to talk about him, like, well, who's
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: playing the Vikings. And I saw the Seahawks and I'm like, damn,
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: I can't use them as.
• 30:05
  Speaker 3: A sleeper there.
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: I'm like, I can't. I can't do any mental gymnastics
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: to make them a sleeper. They're just too good, you know.
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be vim And like.
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: JSA is the top scorer this I did make them
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: a start because I was like, I'll take the low
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: hanging fruit.
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, that's sure. Absolutely, it's right there for you Raiders.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: At the Chargers, the Raiders making more changes. They said
• 30:30
  Speaker 1: goodbye to Chip Kelly as the offensive coordinator after last
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: week's lost to Cleveland, and once again what's old is
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: new again. Greg Olsen comes back to be the OC
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: there in Las Vegas, third time, third time, because this
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: time is going to work for sure, Florio will this
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: improve the Raiders offense?
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: And he blocked like the other greg Olsen, you cannot
• 30:51
  Speaker 3: because that's the issue with this team, Like they're a
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: line is terrible. I know Gino Smith is taking a
• 30:57
  Speaker 3: step back. I think a lot of it though, is
• 30:59
  Speaker 3: because of the constant pressure he's under. And plus, if
• 31:03
  Speaker 3: you like, they could hire any of us and we
• 31:05
  Speaker 3: would look at this offense and be like, build it
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: around Gente and Bowers, and that's what they've done, and
• 31:10
  Speaker 3: it still hasn't led to a whole lot of success.
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: So maybe they find a couple of new things to
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: get them going, but I'm expecting the same old Raiders.
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: I do love that as we were talking about this,
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: we see Ashton Genty with two ugly runs.
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: Like that could be there.
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: You go, that is the third one right there? Yeah,
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: it's bad. I just I went back and watched that
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: game against the Browns and it was like, I mean,
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: it was just a free for all in the backfield
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: and I did it. The Browns offense or defensive line
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: is good, but still, I mean it was just like
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: one two three Chuck Duck, Like that was if Shaudor
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: did not.
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: Start in that game. There was zero reason to watch.
• 31:46
  Speaker 3: There's zero.
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: I was trying to explain that to my wife. I'm like,
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: the only reason people even kind of cares because they
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: should do, or saying like.
• 31:52
  Speaker 3: I have Judkins on some fantasy teams. I'm like, yeah,
• 31:54
  Speaker 3: I'll check what he does after.
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: And you know, yeah, I'm like I'm not watching this game.
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: Like even my friends who are Raider fans like, we
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: don't really want to watch this game at this point.
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: That's how bad it is. Time for a break. But
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: when we come back, we'll finish up our starts and
• 32:09
  Speaker 1: sins with wide receivers and tight ends, plus preview these
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: Sunday and Monday night games and.
• 32:14
  Speaker 3: Our sleepers for the week over.
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: Now to some more starts and since for week thirteen,
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: let's look at the wide receiver position for some starts there.
• 32:27
  Speaker 3: Who are the guys who are starting Floria?
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: Who are the guys that you are sitting.
• 32:31
  Speaker 3: I'm starting the Eagles duo. For a while, I was
• 32:34
  Speaker 3: getting questions on him. I know they balled out last week.
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: I think they go out in a big way this
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: week against the Bears, who struggled against the pass Stefon Diggs.
• 32:41
  Speaker 3: Not only is it a great matchup against the Giants,
• 32:44
  Speaker 3: this is me speculating, but it's been very up or down,
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: not even production wise, like usage wise. This is a
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: Monday night game, National Lights. I big digs balls out
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: in a big way here, Christian Watson. It's indoors. The
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: Lions have really struggled on the deep ball and the Khalilshaki.
• 33:00
  Speaker 3: I already spoke about how the Steelers struggle against yak
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: My Sits. I'm looking to get away from the Colts.
• 33:05
  Speaker 3: Last week both were held to under thirty yards. Pittman
• 33:09
  Speaker 3: had last season both games against the Texans under thirty
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: five receiving yards, and I think Pierce once in his
• 33:14
  Speaker 3: career has gone over fifty against them. Jamison Williams I did.
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: I ended up switching that out last second, so I
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: have Jamison Williams someone you could play. I switched them
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: out for Jordan Addison, DJ Moore and Deebo Samuel, also
• 33:28
  Speaker 3: players I'm looking to get away from. I don't like
• 33:30
  Speaker 3: their matchups at all. Their usage has been kind of
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: up and down, and I just I think there's better
• 33:34
  Speaker 3: options out there with no teams on buy eh.
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: I mean, how do you feeling about Jameson Williams ola
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: Quan because it's boom or bust right, either really get
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: all of the points or none of the points.
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: That's the problem. And I know, Wait brock Right dealing
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: with his neck injury. I know he's trending towards not playing.
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: So there's a target boost for Jameson Williams, but that's
• 33:51
  Speaker 2: never been the issue for him. It's more so looking
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: at last week he had trouble separating, like they had
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: that boy locked up, like it was no s that
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: he was able to get. When you're looking at this
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: week the Packers, they're allowing below league average a separation
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: to the wide receiver position, and that's how you're looking
• 34:09
  Speaker 2: at somebody scary floors that he's producing. He is not
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: like one of the big premieer guys like obviously this
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: Lion's offense can just switch to a Monro Saint Brown
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: and Gibbs, like Jameson Williams is going to be going
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: up against a defense that have been locking wide receivers
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: up of his caliber to where he has that buster
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: boom to him. And you look at the Giants game,
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: he had zero Fantasy points, Like that is a scary floor.
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: And Giants are also below the league average of separation
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: to the wide receiver position. So I'm a little worried
• 34:37
  Speaker 2: about Jameis Williams, even with Brock right out and him
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: getting that target boost. But those floors are scary, Like
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: we talked about those floors. They got broken tiles and cockroaches,
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: old pizza, Like I ain't trying to mess with that
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: especially when I'm trying to stack these wins to the
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: Fantasy playoffs.
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: I'm just imagining the apartment that Akim and Sidney moved
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: into and coming to America.
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: It is definitely scary, that scary day. Shame what they
• 35:00
  Speaker 3: did to that dog. Now I lost my train of
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: thought in this whole week. Yeah, I look, I mean
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: I like the idea.
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: Of Jamison Williams, and you know, obviously having Dan Campbell
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: call the place has certainly unlocked him. I would say
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: I have him. I will probably throw him in a lineup,
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: but yeah, you know, it's it's it's hard, it's kind
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: of scary. Right now, Let's get to the tight ends.
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: So you know, we obviously know the bar for starting
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: a tight end is low. Who your starts. And since
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: this week.
• 35:28
  Speaker 3: Mark Andrews because Bengals, they literally allowed the most and catches, yards, touchdowns,
• 35:33
  Speaker 3: and fantasy points allowed to tight ends this year, Dalton Schultz,
• 35:36
  Speaker 3: the floor has been a lot. I know last week
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: was disappointing, but outside of that, it's been a safe
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: floor with some upside there. Aj Barner since week five
• 35:45
  Speaker 3: is the second most targets on Seattle and the Vikings
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: have struggled against tight ends as of Lake Juwan Johnson
• 35:51
  Speaker 3: because the Dolphins have struggled against tight ends, Taysom Hill
• 35:54
  Speaker 3: because the Dolphins have struggled against running backs. They're two
• 35:57
  Speaker 3: different players. And then the since Dallas Goddard just the
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: usage I know, Rank pointed out on Fantasy Live how
• 36:05
  Speaker 3: banged up the linebacker group is for the Bears. Maybe
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: he scores a touchdown, but if you don't get that,
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: you're getting not a lot. Colson Lovelin, the Eagles have
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: just been so good defensively that it scares me. David
• 36:16
  Speaker 3: Njoku has two targets in each of the last two games.
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: He ran seven routes last week. You could drop him
• 36:23
  Speaker 3: before you could start him. And then Zach Ertz, he
• 36:26
  Speaker 3: has not scored double digits in any game with Marcus
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: Mariota and he gets the Broncos.
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Ertz was one of those guys just kind of
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: hanging around, like the top ten or twelve for a while.
• 36:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I think he's since falling out.
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: Niece Jayden danmes Man just go too. I mean the
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: security blanket. If you don't have Jayden Daniels that Ertz
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: is going to suffer.
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: I mean, I think that applies to a lot of
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: the lot of the commanders. Do you do you want
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: to talk about the Saints tight end slash quarterback slash
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: running back.
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: I'm just really frustrated that you have his name next
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: to Juwan Johnson. Get him off dec We're not supposed
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: to be talking about Taysom Hill. And it's frustrating because
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: Juwan Johnson in over a month hasn't had less than
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: ten fantasy points. Why are we sticking him in a
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: position Taysom Hill in having any comparison like, I don't
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: care if Taysom Hill throws a touchdown to Juwan Johnson, cool,
• 37:13
  Speaker 2: But if Taysom Hill's gonna be catching passes, that's taking
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: food over of Jawan Johnson's plate. No, I don't need
• 37:19
  Speaker 2: any Taysom Hill none whatsoever. It's not like he's a
• 37:22
  Speaker 2: struggling tight end. Jawan Johnson can ball. He has the
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: ability to step up and give us tight end one
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: numbers that we deserve. But having Taysom Hill, it's like
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: toxic to the offense. Bro He's taking other people's fantasy points.
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: Devin Neil. I hope he gets goallying opportunity, but we
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: know that Taysom Hill is probably gonna get involved in
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: that as well.
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: The worst thing it's going to happen is you're gonna
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: see Taysom Hill in the shotgun from like the two
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: yard line.
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: It looks like he's gonna throw it to Jwan Johnson.
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: He's just gonna tuck it and run. Literally, both of
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: his passes came on the goal line like that. They
• 37:50
  Speaker 3: bring him in on that package that, like Juwan Johnson
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: is the safer play. But I think Taysom Hill's ceiling
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: is high.
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: He's capping Juwan Johnson this week. Basically what you're putting.
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: Into He's gonna be a running back. I think like
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: he's you're gonna get.
• 38:05
  Speaker 2: The goal one, Well, he's gonna do it. He's calling
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: the plays, he's doing everything. Okay, I mean it is
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: what it is.
• 38:11
  Speaker 3: Maybe it's an owner thing. I don't know. I mean,
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: I don't know. Kellen Moore just say no.
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: Talking a little Sunday Night football Broncos at the Commanders
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: La Kwan, how scary is Terry McLaurin and is hopeful
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: return to the field.
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: I mean, my boy hasn't been scary all season, to
• 38:27
  Speaker 2: be honest. It has just been scary with the floors
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: he's shown us. But I think at the end of
• 38:30
  Speaker 2: the day, if Terry mclaurin's on your roster, you already
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: have seen He's given us wide receiver two numbers at
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: best this season, only one game with more than five targets,
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: only one game with more than three catches. Like, there's
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: nothing exciting unless he finds the end zone. Last time
• 38:43
  Speaker 2: we saw him, he found the end zone in week eight.
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: We're just hoping and praying that he ends up finding
• 38:47
  Speaker 2: the end zone. For the most part, because Vium is
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: not coming this way. Marcus Mariota is a very low
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: bar of expectations for the rest of the pass catchers
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: that we talked about. So yeah, Talton prayers if you
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: have to start him this week.
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean again, hopefully, hopefully Marcus Mariota is in
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: the text chain where they're like, hey, just throw it
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: to your good players, and you know somebody's just like, Hey,
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: Terry mclaurin's one of your good players.
• 39:07
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna put it out now. If Jadeen Daniels returns
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: like they're saying for Week fourteen, Terry's gonna be on
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: a lot of championship rosters.
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: Wow, I like that.
• 39:15
  Speaker 3: The Giants, Eagles, and Cowboys in the year. I like that.
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: I'm done with that completely.
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: Over to Monday Night Football. It's the Giants at the
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: Paytriots because you can see that game on ESPN, on
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: ABC and ESPN Deportes. I'm gonna ask you this question.
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: I think I know what you're going to say based
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: on what you've said earlier in the show. But if
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: you look at this the wide receivers on either side,
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: which one of them you think has the best outlook
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: this week?
• 39:38
  Speaker 3: Steph Diggs. Yeah. One, it's the New York Giants and
• 39:42
  Speaker 3: they struggle against wide receivers. But even more than that,
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: like last week, Steph Diggs played less than fifty percent
• 39:50
  Speaker 3: of the snaps. He had just three targets. To me,
• 39:53
  Speaker 3: I'm not I don't want to speculate, but I do
• 39:56
  Speaker 3: think they're they're kind of trying to ease Like they
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: know he's at an advanced age, they know he's coming
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: off of a serious injury. So I think they look
• 40:04
  Speaker 3: for times where they're like, we don't have to rely
• 40:06
  Speaker 3: on you as heavily as as we might have to
• 40:08
  Speaker 3: in some games. But this is a Monday night football
• 40:12
  Speaker 3: game with the nation watching. CARDI b might be an
• 40:15
  Speaker 3: attendance to those like I think he balls out in
• 40:19
  Speaker 3: a big way in this game. Plus it's a great matchup.
• 40:22
  Speaker 3: The Giants struggle against receivers in the slot, out wide, downfield.
• 40:25
  Speaker 3: Diggs does all of that, so yeah, I think he
• 40:27
  Speaker 3: goes off.
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: I'll even sleeper in this one too, Kashawan Boody. I
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: think the Giants give up the most deep completions of
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: any team in the league, and Booty's a dot is
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: right now about eighteen yards per target something like that,
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: so they are using him deep down the field. So
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: uh yeah, I think he has some sleeper vibes.
• 40:46
  Speaker 3: Dude, and free the feet. What a wide receiver room.
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: It's a weird white Well they're just throwing stuff on
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: Digs like you didn't have a weird digga.
• 40:52
  Speaker 3: He's just stuff on Diggs. So you know there's that part.
• 40:55
  Speaker 3: There's a joke there.
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: I let it go back, all right, there it is,
• 40:59
  Speaker 1: It's time to see who will deliver, presented by Uber Eats.
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: Time for our Week thirteen sleepers. Somebody from either the
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: Sunday or the Monday game.
• 41:09
  Speaker 3: Lakwan whodi you like.
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: I got Marvin Mims as a sleeper. I think Sean
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: Payton knows his name this week. I think you can
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: have the ability to do kind of whatever you want.
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: If you want to flex that you want to have
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: Marvin mins run out of the backfield, out of jet sweep, sure,
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: I think you could do whatever you want against his
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: commander's defense. They are cooked and I'm talking turkey in
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: the microwave. That is a flavor flavor reference. If you know,
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: you know, they are bad. So looking at Marvin mims man,
• 41:30
  Speaker 2: he is a guy that had some injuries concussion previous weeks.
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: I think he goes off this week as a sleeper.
• 41:36
  Speaker 3: Pat Bryant week is when I'm here. You know, I.
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: Nearly put Pat Bryant on my list of sleepers for
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: the week. I thought, I thought, very seriously.
• 41:45
  Speaker 3: That's my guy.
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: Though I was high on him as a prospect coming
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: into this summer, and I'm glad that he is starting
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: to make his way as a solid wide receiver to
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: a part of the collection of whatever Sean Payton wants
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: to deploy that week.
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's just really a throw a dard.
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: It's mems, it's Troy Franklin, it's I think it's Troy Frankly.
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: I think we take them out of it. Yeah, yeah,
• 42:03
  Speaker 2: I think we put Courtland's son as one of the
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: collect I think those two.
• 42:06
  Speaker 3: Are the top, and then everyone else is kind.
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: Of yeah, it's just figure it out at that point,
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: who's your sleeper, Florio.
• 42:13
  Speaker 3: Who's playing the Bills this week? The Steelers? Oh, so
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: Kenneth Gainwell, because I watched the Bills weekly and they
• 42:19
  Speaker 3: get ran all over weekly. But even more than that,
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: last week he had six targets from Mason Rudolph. The
• 42:25
  Speaker 3: week before that he had eight targets from Aaron Rodgers.
• 42:27
  Speaker 3: So he's clearly going to be utilized in the passing game.
• 42:30
  Speaker 3: It is a game where the Steelers could be playing
• 42:32
  Speaker 3: and catch it mode that leads to more targets for him.
• 42:35
  Speaker 3: Gainwell has surprisingly been a very useful flex like in
• 42:38
  Speaker 3: one league, I've had to use them, and I'm every
• 42:40
  Speaker 3: week I'm like, I don't really, and then I'm like
• 42:41
  Speaker 3: pleasantly surprised. Yeah, no, it's well.
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: Last week he had what I think in eighty yards rushing,
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: ninety yards rushing, way before he had eighty yards receiving,
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: so he's doing it in multiple ways, but he is
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: getting it.
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: Doesn't see a lot of touches to do damage too.
• 42:56
  Speaker 2: That's what's even crazier.
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: Right throwing the fact that the Steelers just can't consistently
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: throw the football too, so they got lean on their
• 43:02
  Speaker 1: running backs to get it done one way or another.
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: My sleeper for the week is Dalton Schultz down there
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: with the Houston Texans, and I don't particularly care if
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: it's CJ. Shroud or Davis Mills throwing the football. Over
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: the last few weeks, going back to I think Week seven,
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: it is Dalton Schultz has been the number two target
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: behind Nico Collins. And yeah, we've seen Jaden Higgins work in,
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: We've seen some other guys get some opportunities, but it
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: really has been mostly Collins and Schultz getting those opportunities.
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: On top of it, big matchup against the Colts, big
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: one in the AFC South, and Indy has been bad
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: against the tight end position pretty much all year long,
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: So I think an opportunity with some volume there for
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: Dalton Schultz to make some plays.
• 43:40
  Speaker 3: And you know, he's.
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: Kind of he's been good enough that he's almost graduated
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: out of sleeper because of what he's done over the
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: last few weeks. But we're going to try and just
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: shoehorn it in at least one more time, and then
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: if he balls out again this week, then I guess
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: he no longer counts as a sleeper and he's just
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: a guy that you're going to start at this point.
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: So that was Who Deliver, presented by Uber Eats, where
• 44:02
