00:04:05.280 --> 00:04:09.719
<v Speaker 1>want Jordan Addison, you cannot have Jordan Mason. That is

75
00:04:09.759 --> 00:04:12.120
<v Speaker 1>the slant on it. It's basically the carbon copy of

84
00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:39.560
<v Speaker 1>to bring up a lively chat room right now, ladies

85
00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:41.759
<v Speaker 1>and gentlemen, a ton of people chiming in right I

86
00:04:41.759 --> 00:04:45.480
<v Speaker 1>will kick things off right now with James Hicks, my

87
00:04:45.680 --> 00:04:49.279
<v Speaker 1>buddy from Team Porky's and KFFS. Good evening, Ferrell Bulkey,

88
00:04:49.360 --> 00:04:53.079
<v Speaker 1>and Oinker. The weekend starts now. Oinker is very excited

89
00:04:53.079 --> 00:04:55.399
<v Speaker 1>for the weekend and he is hanging out with us

90
00:04:55.399 --> 00:04:58.360
<v Speaker 1>tonight as well. James also wants to know what do

91
00:04:58.439 --> 00:05:02.120
<v Speaker 1>we make of Jacory cross Merritt. Is he Jacory Krossky

92
00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:04.720
<v Speaker 1>Merret the law firm, or is he built the ambulance

93
00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:07.800
<v Speaker 1>chasing lawyer we see on Billboard's and annoying TV ads

94
00:05:08.279 --> 00:05:12.240
<v Speaker 1>Roster Clogger or hold Yeah, this is an interesting conversation.

95
00:05:12.399 --> 00:05:16.560
<v Speaker 1>And I brought this up with god who, as I taught,

96
00:05:16.560 --> 00:05:18.600
<v Speaker 1>I think it was Jack Miller from Established the Run

97
00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:23.040
<v Speaker 1>on FFPC Insider Access last night, and I said, and

98
00:05:23.120 --> 00:05:25.920
<v Speaker 1>he agreed with me. I said, the proper way to

99
00:05:25.920 --> 00:05:30.600
<v Speaker 1>handle this is you go with rostering every single one

100
00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:34.360
<v Speaker 1>of the Commander's running backs from Krosskey Merritt to Jeremy

101
00:05:34.439 --> 00:05:38.160
<v Speaker 1>McNichols to Chris Rodriguez. But as it stands, right now,

102
00:05:38.399 --> 00:05:40.680
<v Speaker 1>you start, none of them agree or disagree, and Jack

103
00:05:40.720 --> 00:05:43.800
<v Speaker 1>said he agreed, And I think that's the way to

104
00:05:43.959 --> 00:05:46.319
<v Speaker 1>do it. You want to make sure that you have

105
00:05:46.439 --> 00:05:48.800
<v Speaker 1>these players on your roster, but you have to wait

106
00:05:48.879 --> 00:05:51.720
<v Speaker 1>till these things kind of sort themselves out. Right now,

107
00:05:51.759 --> 00:05:54.560
<v Speaker 1>these things are not sorted out. Krossky Merrit to me,

108
00:05:54.680 --> 00:05:57.279
<v Speaker 1>is not startable on a non bye week unless you

109
00:05:57.439 --> 00:06:00.480
<v Speaker 1>got hit with big time injuries. He's al that should

110
00:06:00.519 --> 00:06:02.839
<v Speaker 1>be on your bench. Same thing with Rodriguez, same thing

111
00:06:02.839 --> 00:06:04.839
<v Speaker 1>with Jeremy McNichols. I think that's the way we have

112
00:06:04.920 --> 00:06:07.279
<v Speaker 1>to look at it at this point right now. So

113
00:06:07.319 --> 00:06:11.439
<v Speaker 1>hopefully that helps you out. James, Tom Smith, Happy Friday,

114
00:06:11.439 --> 00:06:14.040
<v Speaker 1>Bulky and Farrell. Let's get these oinkers oinking yet they

115
00:06:14.079 --> 00:06:17.680
<v Speaker 1>already are oinking as well. And then John Terry, I'm

116
00:06:17.680 --> 00:06:19.639
<v Speaker 1>gonna bring this up right now because I'm gonna bring

117
00:06:19.639 --> 00:06:21.560
<v Speaker 1>in Farrell Elliott. In a second, I'm gonna bring in

118
00:06:21.600 --> 00:06:27.519
<v Speaker 1>my trustee, John Terry Las Vegas Raiders chain right now

119
00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:30.759
<v Speaker 1>that he gave to me as a gift in honor

120
00:06:30.759 --> 00:06:33.879
<v Speaker 1>of Farrell Elliott. Anytime we talk about the Vegas Raiders,

121
00:06:33.879 --> 00:06:37.040
<v Speaker 1>and quite frankly, since John is hanging out with us tonight,

122
00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:39.439
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna bring this on as well. John gave me

123
00:06:39.480 --> 00:06:44.160
<v Speaker 1>this gift because we're at Paris Casino in Las Vegas

124
00:06:44.199 --> 00:06:46.120
<v Speaker 1>for the FFPC live events this year, and I don't

125
00:06:46.120 --> 00:06:48.279
<v Speaker 1>know if John has seen me wear this yet. I'm

126
00:06:48.279 --> 00:06:50.639
<v Speaker 1>gonna wear it on the stream right now. This is

127
00:06:50.759 --> 00:06:56.319
<v Speaker 1>the Parisian beret, the French beret in you know, channeling,

128
00:06:57.759 --> 00:07:08.199
<v Speaker 1>channeling the Griswold family in national lampoons, Las Vegas, European vacation.

129
00:07:08.800 --> 00:07:12.439
<v Speaker 1>I have the bulky beret right now that I'm wearing

130
00:07:13.319 --> 00:07:15.519
<v Speaker 1>as we answer his question, and I'll bring in our

131
00:07:15.600 --> 00:07:19.040
<v Speaker 1>Las Vegas Raiders expert. He is the defenditive Commissioner of

132
00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:23.399
<v Speaker 1>Fantasy Football. Please welcome into the program, mister J. Farrell.

133
00:07:23.519 --> 00:07:26.600
<v Speaker 1>Elliott Farrell, welcome in tonight. So good to have you on.

134
00:07:26.720 --> 00:07:29.639
<v Speaker 1>I'm in full gear. I got the Paris MFPC bereon

135
00:07:29.720 --> 00:07:32.240
<v Speaker 1>courtesy of John Terry. I got the Raiders chain on

136
00:07:32.600 --> 00:07:35.240
<v Speaker 1>courtesy of John Terry. And he's asking us right now

137
00:07:35.519 --> 00:07:38.079
<v Speaker 1>what we project for Trey Tucker the rest of the season.

138
00:07:38.600 --> 00:07:40.519
<v Speaker 1>Good evening to you, sir, and what do you think

139
00:07:40.560 --> 00:07:41.120
<v Speaker 1>about Tucker?

140
00:07:42.360 --> 00:07:44.160
<v Speaker 4>What do I think about Tucker? I think it was

141
00:07:44.199 --> 00:07:46.600
<v Speaker 4>a year, maybe a year and a half too early, Balky.

142
00:07:46.680 --> 00:07:49.920
<v Speaker 4>We were beating the drums for him twenty twenty four.

143
00:07:50.839 --> 00:07:53.720
<v Speaker 4>He's a wonderful basketball player. It will be very, very

144
00:07:53.759 --> 00:07:56.879
<v Speaker 4>frustrating to figure out when you should start Trey Tucker

145
00:07:57.399 --> 00:08:00.560
<v Speaker 4>and those that started him last weekend the tip of

146
00:08:00.600 --> 00:08:03.800
<v Speaker 4>my cap, and in the variety of teams that we

147
00:08:03.879 --> 00:08:06.639
<v Speaker 4>have in the FFPC and in the six hundred and

148
00:08:06.680 --> 00:08:09.839
<v Speaker 4>eighty four teams we have in Kentucky, I want someone

149
00:08:09.879 --> 00:08:12.160
<v Speaker 4>to step up and say they started last week. But

150
00:08:12.920 --> 00:08:16.639
<v Speaker 4>to that point, Trey Tucker has always been a deep threat.

151
00:08:17.000 --> 00:08:20.879
<v Speaker 4>He's got a quarterback that can unselected games get him

152
00:08:20.920 --> 00:08:25.480
<v Speaker 4>the ball, and he's going to be in a situation

153
00:08:25.560 --> 00:08:28.879
<v Speaker 4>where the Raiders are going to be trailing quite often

154
00:08:28.959 --> 00:08:31.959
<v Speaker 4>and there'll be balls flying around. The running back's going

155
00:08:32.000 --> 00:08:33.639
<v Speaker 4>to get his, the tight end's going to get his,

156
00:08:34.279 --> 00:08:36.200
<v Speaker 4>Myers is going to get his. But as long as

157
00:08:36.240 --> 00:08:39.320
<v Speaker 4>Trey Tucker can beat the secondary and beat him deep

158
00:08:39.399 --> 00:08:41.559
<v Speaker 4>and Geno can get him the ball, you could have

159
00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:44.600
<v Speaker 4>some plus games. But you know what you said earlier

160
00:08:44.679 --> 00:08:48.240
<v Speaker 4>about bie week situations, for Crosskey Merritt. There is your

161
00:08:48.320 --> 00:08:50.000
<v Speaker 4>Trey Tucker situation as well.

162
00:08:50.039 --> 00:08:54.039
<v Speaker 1>I think I'll bring this up in regards to Trey Tucker,

163
00:08:56.200 --> 00:08:58.759
<v Speaker 1>Dante Thornton was a darling of a lot of people

164
00:08:58.879 --> 00:09:02.519
<v Speaker 1>during the drafting season, and he has failed to show

165
00:09:02.559 --> 00:09:05.440
<v Speaker 1>out thus far, and quite frankly, he's a rookie. He

166
00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:09.080
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't be showing out this far. You have Jack Besh

167
00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:11.879
<v Speaker 1>and Jacoby Myers, who I think are a duplication of skills.

168
00:09:12.440 --> 00:09:15.480
<v Speaker 1>You have Brock Bowers who's hobbled right now, who is

169
00:09:15.519 --> 00:09:17.600
<v Speaker 1>the guy that's on the field, a ton who is

170
00:09:17.639 --> 00:09:20.200
<v Speaker 1>the best field stretcher on that team. Not only is

171
00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:22.759
<v Speaker 1>this guy a lidlifter Farrell, but I think Trey Tucker

172
00:09:22.840 --> 00:09:27.519
<v Speaker 1>has a role on this team just in normal passing situations.

173
00:09:27.840 --> 00:09:30.080
<v Speaker 1>And I think that that's something we couldn't say about

174
00:09:30.120 --> 00:09:31.799
<v Speaker 1>Tucker in years past, and we could say it about

175
00:09:31.840 --> 00:09:33.879
<v Speaker 1>him this year. I went heavy on him in a

176
00:09:33.879 --> 00:09:37.120
<v Speaker 1>few Kentucky leagues, a few Private Dynasty leagues. I definitely

177
00:09:37.159 --> 00:09:39.440
<v Speaker 1>needed him in a couple of private Dynasty leagues as well.

178
00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:42.639
<v Speaker 1>So we'll see what happens there with Trey Tucker. Adam

179
00:09:42.639 --> 00:09:46.279
<v Speaker 1>Han joining us tonight apparently Philadelphia Eagles pass catchers are

180
00:09:46.360 --> 00:09:48.879
<v Speaker 1>fantasy relevant when a team gets to build a double

181
00:09:48.879 --> 00:09:51.080
<v Speaker 1>digit lead on them. But how many teams can do that?

182
00:09:51.399 --> 00:09:53.200
<v Speaker 1>And I think this is interesting to bring up Pharrel.

183
00:09:53.279 --> 00:09:55.440
<v Speaker 1>We're very excited to see. At least I was excited

184
00:09:55.440 --> 00:09:58.159
<v Speaker 1>to see what Aj Brown could do for me this

185
00:09:58.240 --> 00:10:02.000
<v Speaker 1>past week. But it took the getting down nineteen to

186
00:10:02.039 --> 00:10:04.840
<v Speaker 1>the Rams. And DeVonta Smith, ye know, he was involved,

187
00:10:04.840 --> 00:10:07.679
<v Speaker 1>but not heavily involved. And Adam brings up a good point.

188
00:10:08.120 --> 00:10:10.120
<v Speaker 1>If this is what it takes for the Eagles pass

189
00:10:10.159 --> 00:10:12.879
<v Speaker 1>offense to be alive, how many teams are going to

190
00:10:12.919 --> 00:10:15.039
<v Speaker 1>get up three touchdowns on Philly this season. I don't

191
00:10:15.080 --> 00:10:15.399
<v Speaker 1>see it.

192
00:10:15.639 --> 00:10:21.120
<v Speaker 4>No, that passing game is exactly what it's going to

193
00:10:21.159 --> 00:10:24.000
<v Speaker 4>be last year, and there's one guy that runs it.

194
00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:27.120
<v Speaker 4>It's Aj Brown. Smith contributes to Goddard when he's healthy.

195
00:10:27.960 --> 00:10:30.720
<v Speaker 4>That's what it looks like. And as long as Barkley

196
00:10:30.840 --> 00:10:34.000
<v Speaker 4>is a approaching the five yards of average carry and

197
00:10:34.080 --> 00:10:36.519
<v Speaker 4>as long as the tush bush is legal in the league,

198
00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:41.120
<v Speaker 4>that's what you get when you get involved with DeVonta Smith.

199
00:10:41.159 --> 00:10:43.759
<v Speaker 4>And that's why, as Balkie, I know you have an

200
00:10:43.799 --> 00:10:51.240
<v Speaker 4>intravenous drip to Darren RMANI and all of his information,

201
00:10:51.720 --> 00:10:54.000
<v Speaker 4>and that is why you could tell us that DeVante

202
00:10:54.000 --> 00:10:57.600
<v Speaker 4>Smith never moved much further? Was it a sixth round

203
00:10:57.679 --> 00:11:01.960
<v Speaker 4>draft pick? And I want to roll back if anyone

204
00:11:02.039 --> 00:11:06.759
<v Speaker 4>in Jack Beck's camp is listening to the aspect that

205
00:11:06.840 --> 00:11:10.000
<v Speaker 4>you said he had interchangeable skills with Jacobe Myers. You

206
00:11:10.279 --> 00:11:13.440
<v Speaker 4>just made Christmas for him in September. How sweet it

207
00:11:13.480 --> 00:11:18.000
<v Speaker 4>is that that could be. Speaking of Christmas and gift giving, Balky,

208
00:11:18.080 --> 00:11:20.639
<v Speaker 4>right now, I have you at two gifts from John Terry.

209
00:11:22.159 --> 00:11:24.919
<v Speaker 4>The commission down here in Kentucky. We have zero gifts

210
00:11:24.919 --> 00:11:28.519
<v Speaker 4>from John Terry and zero guests from John Terry. But

211
00:11:28.799 --> 00:11:31.120
<v Speaker 4>I love the John Terry. You know, John Terry showed

212
00:11:31.200 --> 00:11:34.399
<v Speaker 4>up in Kentucky for his first trip this year and

213
00:11:34.600 --> 00:11:38.440
<v Speaker 4>was an absolute perfect gentleman. Perhaps we can attribute that

214
00:11:38.519 --> 00:11:41.799
<v Speaker 4>to his being with his running buddy, Bip Lab, but

215
00:11:41.840 --> 00:11:43.519
<v Speaker 4>he was a pleasure to have and I can't wait

216
00:11:43.519 --> 00:11:44.720
<v Speaker 4>till he returns.

217
00:11:45.240 --> 00:11:48.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Bip lad Mendel John Terry both top ten and

218
00:11:48.159 --> 00:11:51.039
<v Speaker 1>the kffsc Man event heading into week four, which is

219
00:11:51.120 --> 00:11:55.519
<v Speaker 1>awesome for sure that we're seeing that so far this

220
00:11:55.639 --> 00:11:57.840
<v Speaker 1>season and as John said, too bad Week three doesn't

221
00:11:57.879 --> 00:12:00.279
<v Speaker 1>pay out. Yeah, it's a long way to go, and

222
00:12:00.320 --> 00:12:02.440
<v Speaker 1>for those of us who are chasing Terry and Mandel,

223
00:12:02.559 --> 00:12:04.639
<v Speaker 1>we are very excited that it is a long way

224
00:12:04.639 --> 00:12:08.360
<v Speaker 1>to go, so we have the chance to catch them

225
00:12:08.399 --> 00:12:12.440
<v Speaker 1>for sure. Permar ninety nine, Pharrell, our good buddy. I

226
00:12:12.600 --> 00:12:16.360
<v Speaker 1>have Luther Burden and Tory Horton as stashes. Do I

227
00:12:16.519 --> 00:12:19.159
<v Speaker 1>drop one of them to pick up Jalen Cocher? I

228
00:12:19.200 --> 00:12:21.399
<v Speaker 1>don't think so. What say you? And I'm gonna tell

229
00:12:21.440 --> 00:12:23.600
<v Speaker 1>you right now, I'd love to have Luther Burden on

230
00:12:23.639 --> 00:12:26.200
<v Speaker 1>my team. I love to have Tory Horton on my team.

231
00:12:26.279 --> 00:12:28.679
<v Speaker 1>Quite frankly, I do have Jalen Coker on a few

232
00:12:28.679 --> 00:12:31.399
<v Speaker 1>of my teams. If it comes down to it, we're

233
00:12:31.399 --> 00:12:33.759
<v Speaker 1>the only way I can acquire Cocher on one of

234
00:12:33.759 --> 00:12:37.279
<v Speaker 1>my teams is dropping Horton or dropping Burden. I draw

235
00:12:37.320 --> 00:12:39.440
<v Speaker 1>the line there. I'm with Permar on this. I would

236
00:12:39.519 --> 00:12:41.879
<v Speaker 1>rather have Burden. I'd rather have Horton than Jalen Coker

237
00:12:41.960 --> 00:12:43.919
<v Speaker 1>at the back end of my roster. Right now, Fero, he's.

238
00:12:43.799 --> 00:12:46.960
<v Speaker 4>Asking for advice and you gave him some very solid.

239
00:12:47.720 --> 00:12:51.399
<v Speaker 1>And I want to bring up before we get in.

240
00:12:51.480 --> 00:12:55.000
<v Speaker 1>Our guest Stephen Lafountain is coming up right now, the

241
00:12:55.000 --> 00:12:58.440
<v Speaker 1>fourth place team in the FFPC, Big Gorilla, heading into

242
00:12:58.440 --> 00:13:01.200
<v Speaker 1>this week of play. I want to bring up some

243
00:13:01.240 --> 00:13:05.080
<v Speaker 1>stuff that came up in the last few hours here, Farrell,

244
00:13:05.120 --> 00:13:07.759
<v Speaker 1>just to kind of get your take on it going

245
00:13:07.799 --> 00:13:12.600
<v Speaker 1>forward as the final or the Friday. Injury reports came

246
00:13:12.639 --> 00:13:16.679
<v Speaker 1>out for a lot of teams today. Bashell Tooton was

247
00:13:16.720 --> 00:13:18.639
<v Speaker 1>removed from the injury report. He's going to play in

248
00:13:18.639 --> 00:13:21.200
<v Speaker 1>Week four against the forty nine ers. I'm of the

249
00:13:21.240 --> 00:13:25.039
<v Speaker 1>opinion that you keep tooting on your roster, not willing

250
00:13:25.080 --> 00:13:27.440
<v Speaker 1>to play him this week even as a flex. Is

251
00:13:27.759 --> 00:13:29.279
<v Speaker 1>that how you fall in on this as well.

252
00:13:29.639 --> 00:13:32.720
<v Speaker 4>You can't find many running backs on the waiver wire, Bulky.

253
00:13:32.720 --> 00:13:35.159
<v Speaker 4>If you've got one that any kind of promise, hang

254
00:13:35.200 --> 00:13:35.559
<v Speaker 4>on to you.

255
00:13:36.679 --> 00:13:40.559
<v Speaker 1>Tom Smith wants to know as we continue our Raiders conversation,

256
00:13:41.000 --> 00:13:43.440
<v Speaker 1>he wants to know if Ashton Genty is gonna get

257
00:13:43.519 --> 00:13:46.919
<v Speaker 1>rolling versus the Bears this week. I know that a

258
00:13:46.960 --> 00:13:51.360
<v Speaker 1>lot of rookies struggle early on in the season. We

259
00:13:51.480 --> 00:13:54.360
<v Speaker 1>have seen a lot of rookies, and more so wide receivers,

260
00:13:54.360 --> 00:13:56.480
<v Speaker 1>but it's happening with running backs. Farrel pick it up

261
00:13:56.519 --> 00:13:59.000
<v Speaker 1>at the end the back end of seasons, the second

262
00:13:59.039 --> 00:14:00.960
<v Speaker 1>half of seasons. I don't think we're going to have

263
00:14:00.960 --> 00:14:03.320
<v Speaker 1>to wait too long for gent I do think he

264
00:14:03.399 --> 00:14:05.799
<v Speaker 1>has a nice game this week. I'm looking at fifteen

265
00:14:05.840 --> 00:14:09.000
<v Speaker 1>plus Fantasy points, maybe even twenty, So I'm betting big

266
00:14:09.039 --> 00:14:11.200
<v Speaker 1>on Genty this week. How do you think he's going

267
00:14:11.279 --> 00:14:12.759
<v Speaker 1>to fare against that Bears defense.

268
00:14:13.120 --> 00:14:14.879
<v Speaker 4>I think he'll do well, and I think if he

269
00:14:14.919 --> 00:14:18.919
<v Speaker 4>can quit being contacted behind the line of scrimmage, he

270
00:14:19.039 --> 00:14:22.559
<v Speaker 4>may just have a chance. Watch that defensive at first,

271
00:14:22.919 --> 00:14:27.279
<v Speaker 4>any opposition that you're playing against this weekend or moving forward,

272
00:14:27.559 --> 00:14:29.840
<v Speaker 4>there's little he can do. If he's being touched in

273
00:14:29.919 --> 00:14:33.519
<v Speaker 4>the backfield a minute he gets the ball. That compromises

274
00:14:33.600 --> 00:14:38.639
<v Speaker 4>every running back skill set. But these people that are

275
00:14:38.639 --> 00:14:41.559
<v Speaker 4>talking about Genty being a bust must not be watching

276
00:14:41.600 --> 00:14:42.240
<v Speaker 4>the same games.

277
00:14:43.320 --> 00:14:45.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, there's plenty of people. I can't remember who said

278
00:14:45.799 --> 00:14:48.279
<v Speaker 1>this this week. I think it was like Graham Barfield.

279
00:14:48.279 --> 00:14:51.120
<v Speaker 1>There's somebody from Fantasy Points was saying, or maybe as

280
00:14:51.120 --> 00:14:54.080
<v Speaker 1>Adam Harstad from Football Guy said that if you look

281
00:14:54.120 --> 00:15:00.519
<v Speaker 1>at the history of draft capital metrics and kie running

282
00:15:00.519 --> 00:15:05.279
<v Speaker 1>backs off to slow starts like Ashton Genty was and

283
00:15:05.399 --> 00:15:08.080
<v Speaker 1>the people that are getting compared to Trent Richardson more

284
00:15:08.120 --> 00:15:10.879
<v Speaker 1>often than not they end up the opposite of Trent.

285
00:15:12.279 --> 00:15:14.879
<v Speaker 1>I am still very much team Genty, still very much

286
00:15:14.879 --> 00:15:18.639
<v Speaker 1>a team o'murray and Hampton as well Woward. With these

287
00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:22.759
<v Speaker 1>rookie running backs, Ricky Pearsall questionable the play against the

288
00:15:22.799 --> 00:15:25.399
<v Speaker 1>Jaguars this week as we stick with San Francisco. He

289
00:15:25.480 --> 00:15:28.519
<v Speaker 1>did not practice Wednesday, got in a limited practice yesterday,

290
00:15:28.600 --> 00:15:33.120
<v Speaker 1>limited practice on Friday. Juwan Jennings got a limited practice

291
00:15:33.159 --> 00:15:36.039
<v Speaker 1>in today, and I think that if he is able

292
00:15:36.080 --> 00:15:38.360
<v Speaker 1>to go against the Jaguars, that hurts Pearsall a little bit.

293
00:15:38.519 --> 00:15:40.919
<v Speaker 1>But Farrell, I am breaking ties in favor of Ricky

294
00:15:40.919 --> 00:15:44.480
<v Speaker 1>pearsall this week, and I'm breaking ties against Juwan Jennings

295
00:15:44.879 --> 00:15:46.639
<v Speaker 1>as far as starting lineups goes that the way you

296
00:15:46.639 --> 00:15:47.480
<v Speaker 1>see it as well.

297
00:15:48.240 --> 00:15:50.720
<v Speaker 4>I do, And I would add that health is a

298
00:15:50.799 --> 00:15:53.720
<v Speaker 4>question here, quarterback might be a question here. But one

299
00:15:53.759 --> 00:15:56.559
<v Speaker 4>of the things that I think everyone in fantasy football

300
00:15:56.600 --> 00:15:58.919
<v Speaker 4>needs to look at is the power of the Jacksonville

301
00:15:59.000 --> 00:16:03.399
<v Speaker 4>Jags defense. They are They're ball howking corners that are

302
00:16:03.440 --> 00:16:05.720
<v Speaker 4>not afraid to get physical, and they're the type that

303
00:16:05.759 --> 00:16:09.440
<v Speaker 4>could frustrate a player like Pearson, So you add that

304
00:16:09.600 --> 00:16:12.200
<v Speaker 4>into the mix, and it might be good to look

305
00:16:12.240 --> 00:16:14.360
<v Speaker 4>somewhere else. You know, you've got a full roster of

306
00:16:14.360 --> 00:16:17.879
<v Speaker 4>twenty players. Chances are you drafted a lot of good players.

307
00:16:17.879 --> 00:16:20.639
<v Speaker 4>You probably didn't draft them as high with the draft

308
00:16:20.639 --> 00:16:23.159
<v Speaker 4>capital that you had to spend on Pierso and Jennies,

309
00:16:23.200 --> 00:16:25.600
<v Speaker 4>but you've still got good receivers that you can mix in.

310
00:16:27.080 --> 00:16:29.919
<v Speaker 1>Permar ninety nine also says, by the way, he is

311
00:16:30.000 --> 00:16:33.720
<v Speaker 1>rolling with Matthew Golden over Jamison william this week in

312
00:16:33.840 --> 00:16:36.279
<v Speaker 1>his second flex, he feels great about it. And I

313
00:16:36.320 --> 00:16:40.799
<v Speaker 1>will say this to Permar. I think he was alluding

314
00:16:40.799 --> 00:16:43.840
<v Speaker 1>to what happened on the FFPC Inside or Access show

315
00:16:43.919 --> 00:16:46.879
<v Speaker 1>last night, and I said I would still rather play

316
00:16:46.960 --> 00:16:51.320
<v Speaker 1>Jamison Williams over Matthew Golden. And while I do stand

317
00:16:51.360 --> 00:16:53.879
<v Speaker 1>by that, I think I'd rather play Williams than Golden

318
00:16:53.919 --> 00:16:58.080
<v Speaker 1>this week, I will say that I'm much more bullish

319
00:16:58.080 --> 00:17:01.320
<v Speaker 1>on Golden than I was over the last four eight hours. Obviously,

320
00:17:01.360 --> 00:17:03.559
<v Speaker 1>we know that Jayden Reid is not going to play,

321
00:17:03.559 --> 00:17:05.519
<v Speaker 1>we know Tucker Craft is still banged up, and we

322
00:17:05.599 --> 00:17:09.400
<v Speaker 1>know that Dallas secondary cannot cover Deep. So while I'll

323
00:17:09.440 --> 00:17:12.519
<v Speaker 1>still say Jamison Williams over Golden this week, it's much

324
00:17:12.559 --> 00:17:15.039
<v Speaker 1>closer off for me right now. And I don't think

325
00:17:15.039 --> 00:17:18.960
<v Speaker 1>it's a bad start to play Golden over Jamison Williams Farrell.

326
00:17:19.000 --> 00:17:21.000
<v Speaker 1>If it comes down to Golden and Whiskey Bill, who

327
00:17:21.079 --> 00:17:22.160
<v Speaker 1>are you playing in Week four?

328
00:17:22.359 --> 00:17:25.319
<v Speaker 4>It's not even a decision. You're playing Whiskey Bill. Detroit

329
00:17:25.400 --> 00:17:29.400
<v Speaker 4>rolls back into their home stadium. This is a player

330
00:17:29.440 --> 00:17:32.759
<v Speaker 4>that's paid his dues, that deserves to start Golden. Maybe

331
00:17:32.759 --> 00:17:35.960
<v Speaker 4>a good player. Balky. You say that the Dallas Cowboys

332
00:17:36.000 --> 00:17:38.759
<v Speaker 4>cannot defend deep, Well they haven't yet, but they practiced

333
00:17:38.799 --> 00:17:40.160
<v Speaker 4>all week. Let's see what happened.

334
00:17:40.559 --> 00:17:43.359
<v Speaker 1>Yes, we will see what happened. Mean like, if this

335
00:17:43.480 --> 00:17:45.559
<v Speaker 1>was the panacea that they needed, was a full week

336
00:17:45.559 --> 00:17:49.559
<v Speaker 1>of practice heading into this Packers game, then listen.

337
00:17:50.400 --> 00:17:53.279
<v Speaker 4>That they showed up and watched some film right exactly.

338
00:17:54.160 --> 00:17:57.359
<v Speaker 1>Racy wants to know as far as quarterbacks go for

339
00:17:57.440 --> 00:18:02.200
<v Speaker 1>Racy this week, Geno Smith or the Raiders. Who who

340
00:18:02.319 --> 00:18:05.119
<v Speaker 1>is taking on the Chicago Bears or Jared Goff who's

341
00:18:05.160 --> 00:18:08.000
<v Speaker 1>at home against the Cleveland Browns. A defense that really

342
00:18:08.079 --> 00:18:10.880
<v Speaker 1>stemied the Packers offense last week. Who you got this week?

343
00:18:10.880 --> 00:18:11.960
<v Speaker 1>Pharrell Smith or Golf?

344
00:18:12.240 --> 00:18:14.559
<v Speaker 4>We always played Jared Golf at home, That's who. That's

345
00:18:14.559 --> 00:18:19.920
<v Speaker 4>why we drafted Gino Smith. It's hard to pick Gino

346
00:18:20.079 --> 00:18:22.759
<v Speaker 4>roulette of which game that he's going to play, and

347
00:18:22.799 --> 00:18:25.640
<v Speaker 4>you would expect him to bring this one together and

348
00:18:25.720 --> 00:18:29.559
<v Speaker 4>you would expect him to get mid twenties points. But

349
00:18:29.839 --> 00:18:32.960
<v Speaker 4>I'm just going to look at Jared Golf in an

350
00:18:32.960 --> 00:18:36.079
<v Speaker 4>offense that I can really respect, to the player that

351
00:18:36.160 --> 00:18:38.319
<v Speaker 4>knows how to play in that in that field, in

352
00:18:38.359 --> 00:18:44.440
<v Speaker 4>that home stadium, and you add in the variety of

353
00:18:44.640 --> 00:18:48.519
<v Speaker 4>talent that is around golf, and that's hard to beat.

354
00:18:48.839 --> 00:18:50.119
<v Speaker 4>So let's go with Golf.

355
00:18:51.000 --> 00:18:54.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm actually gonna roll with Smith. I got burned on

356
00:18:54.440 --> 00:18:57.000
<v Speaker 1>him last week. I know he's at home this week

357
00:18:57.039 --> 00:18:59.119
<v Speaker 1>and he plays really well at home, but man, the

358
00:18:59.160 --> 00:19:01.359
<v Speaker 1>way that Gino Smith is launching the ball down the field,

359
00:19:01.359 --> 00:19:03.039
<v Speaker 1>I'm just salivating for the big plays.

360
00:19:04.440 --> 00:19:09.119
<v Speaker 4>And sometimes, Balky, I think that the quantity and quality

361
00:19:09.160 --> 00:19:13.960
<v Speaker 4>of bourbon that you you consumed at the KFFSC has

362
00:19:14.240 --> 00:19:17.440
<v Speaker 4>washed all logic from your tongue. But I will not

363
00:19:18.319 --> 00:19:23.000
<v Speaker 4>abuse you on Gino Smith. God bless you go.

364
00:19:21.519 --> 00:19:24.400
<v Speaker 1>Too, God bless you my friend a couple more before

365
00:19:24.440 --> 00:19:26.720
<v Speaker 1>we get to steal a fountain. The fourth place team

366
00:19:26.759 --> 00:19:30.720
<v Speaker 1>owner in the FFPC Big Gorilla, Steve Irgallos Fantasy Sopranos,

367
00:19:30.759 --> 00:19:34.160
<v Speaker 1>Brian Thomas Jr. Is destroying me. Yes, he is not

368
00:19:34.279 --> 00:19:36.799
<v Speaker 1>helping anybody with you know who has him on his

369
00:19:36.839 --> 00:19:39.319
<v Speaker 1>team right now, parall I'm playing the long game. I'm

370
00:19:39.319 --> 00:19:42.480
<v Speaker 1>not panicking. I understand that this is a player that

371
00:19:42.519 --> 00:19:44.319
<v Speaker 1>has really led us down in the first two weeks.

372
00:19:44.599 --> 00:19:46.960
<v Speaker 1>I still think that based on what I saw last year,

373
00:19:47.039 --> 00:19:49.759
<v Speaker 1>really tough for me to see him just fall off

374
00:19:49.759 --> 00:19:52.160
<v Speaker 1>the face of the earth. This year, I'm still playing him,

375
00:19:52.200 --> 00:19:54.079
<v Speaker 1>maybe with a little bit less confidence than I had

376
00:19:54.119 --> 00:19:56.319
<v Speaker 1>in weeks one or two, but I'm still playing them

377
00:19:56.319 --> 00:19:58.519
<v Speaker 1>and I still have a faith that he is going

378
00:19:58.599 --> 00:20:01.920
<v Speaker 1>to perform and get close to his draft capital this year.

379
00:20:02.119 --> 00:20:05.119
<v Speaker 4>You should there is variants in this young player's game.

380
00:20:05.319 --> 00:20:08.279
<v Speaker 4>Jacksonville is a team that I looked away from in

381
00:20:08.319 --> 00:20:12.000
<v Speaker 4>the draft, and you know too. So far I was

382
00:20:12.039 --> 00:20:16.559
<v Speaker 4>correct because of the production of Thomas and the production

383
00:20:16.680 --> 00:20:19.160
<v Speaker 4>at the tight end, a position has not been there,

384
00:20:19.599 --> 00:20:23.079
<v Speaker 4>but Travis at the end has been a fine producer

385
00:20:23.519 --> 00:20:26.279
<v Speaker 4>in the backfield. These games have heaving flows to the

386
00:20:26.759 --> 00:20:30.400
<v Speaker 4>Thomas will get his So far no good, but we

387
00:20:30.440 --> 00:20:33.480
<v Speaker 4>could say that about a number of players drafted in

388
00:20:33.480 --> 00:20:39.119
<v Speaker 4>that area. You can't before we get to October. You

389
00:20:39.160 --> 00:20:41.680
<v Speaker 4>can't give up on your draft strategy. You guys are

390
00:20:42.039 --> 00:20:46.119
<v Speaker 4>very very good drafters. You have reasons you made those picks.

391
00:20:46.160 --> 00:20:49.720
<v Speaker 4>You thought about them all summer long, and you put

392
00:20:49.759 --> 00:20:53.960
<v Speaker 4>them into motion both online and live at the FFPC.

393
00:20:54.519 --> 00:20:58.680
<v Speaker 4>You must understand that you were right. Then you've been

394
00:20:58.720 --> 00:21:01.519
<v Speaker 4>proven wrong early. But he's given you great advice.

395
00:21:02.400 --> 00:21:04.559
<v Speaker 1>We'll try to give some great advice to Tom Smith here.

396
00:21:04.599 --> 00:21:07.400
<v Speaker 1>He's got a choice between Brock Perty or Justin Fields.

397
00:21:07.440 --> 00:21:09.799
<v Speaker 1>Party practice today, he is a full goal against the

398
00:21:09.880 --> 00:21:13.519
<v Speaker 1>Jaguars on Sunday at home. Justin Field's coming back off

399
00:21:13.519 --> 00:21:15.400
<v Speaker 1>that concussion. He's going to go, but he goes down

400
00:21:15.559 --> 00:21:18.039
<v Speaker 1>to Miami on the road, but it is the Dolphins.

401
00:21:18.799 --> 00:21:22.119
<v Speaker 1>I'm rolling with Purty here, Perrell. I understand that Fields

402
00:21:22.119 --> 00:21:24.440
<v Speaker 1>maybe has the higher upside, but I think Perty is

403
00:21:24.440 --> 00:21:26.559
<v Speaker 1>the stronger start for me for Tom Smith here, what

404
00:21:26.680 --> 00:21:27.079
<v Speaker 1>say you?

405
00:21:27.640 --> 00:21:30.920
<v Speaker 4>If you ever believe in Fields, this is probably the

406
00:21:30.960 --> 00:21:33.640
<v Speaker 4>week to play him. However, Tom, if you're talking about

407
00:21:33.640 --> 00:21:36.480
<v Speaker 4>your teams, both of them that are in the top

408
00:21:36.559 --> 00:21:40.160
<v Speaker 4>ten in the KFFSC. You don't need a hero performance

409
00:21:40.160 --> 00:21:42.720
<v Speaker 4>from your quarterback in purty. We'll give you exactly what

410
00:21:42.799 --> 00:21:45.079
<v Speaker 4>you need to fill in with the rest of your roster.

411
00:21:45.240 --> 00:21:48.359
<v Speaker 4>Depends what your roster needs. If you're off to an

412
00:21:48.440 --> 00:21:51.359
<v Speaker 4>zero and three star and you're down in the second

413
00:21:51.440 --> 00:21:55.400
<v Speaker 4>half of your division, run fields out there and try

414
00:21:55.440 --> 00:21:58.400
<v Speaker 4>to get that plus ten over party that you really

415
00:21:58.440 --> 00:21:58.880
<v Speaker 4>don't need.

416
00:22:00.279 --> 00:22:04.000
<v Speaker 1>We uh, we do need this for uh for our

417
00:22:04.039 --> 00:22:09.319
<v Speaker 1>show tonight, our guest, ladies. Gentleman named multi time winner

<v Speaker 1>in the f FPC over the course of the main

419
00:22:12.079 --> 00:22:15.559
<v Speaker 1>event and our midstakes contest. And speaking of our midstakes contest,

421
00:22:18.880 --> 00:22:21.839
<v Speaker 1>FPC Big Girl heading into week four. He's got a

422

<v Speaker 1>to talk about that squad, his other teams, and so

424
00:22:26.319 --> 00:22:29.160
<v Speaker 1>much more going on in the FFPC. Please welcome in,

425
00:22:29.240 --> 00:22:34.000
<v Speaker 1>ladies and gentlemen, mister Steve love Fountain. Steve, welcome aboard tonight,

426
00:22:34.039 --> 00:22:35.960
<v Speaker 1>Happy Friday night. Thanks for hanging out with us.

427
00:22:38.359 --> 00:22:41.440
<v Speaker 4>Oh no, Steve, you're muted. May be on mute.

428
00:22:41.480 --> 00:22:44.720
<v Speaker 1>You may be on and hold and hold on. I

429
00:22:44.720 --> 00:22:46.599
<v Speaker 1>think I might have the problem. So I'm gonna test

430
00:22:46.599 --> 00:22:49.519
<v Speaker 1>something here, Farrell. I'm gonna take off my French beat

431
00:22:50.039 --> 00:22:53.440
<v Speaker 1>and see if that somehow unlocks the audio for one

432
00:22:53.519 --> 00:22:54.319
<v Speaker 1>Steve la Fountain.

433
00:22:54.359 --> 00:22:58.039
<v Speaker 4>Steve, No, he's out there.

434
00:22:58.240 --> 00:22:59.680
<v Speaker 1>Oh he can't. Now he can't. Might not be able

435
00:22:59.720 --> 00:23:01.720
<v Speaker 1>to hear it as well. This is a problem. This

436
00:23:01.799 --> 00:23:06.119
<v Speaker 1>is a problem. He can hear us, but we cannot

437
00:23:06.119 --> 00:23:06.599
<v Speaker 1>hear him.

438
00:23:07.000 --> 00:23:09.559
<v Speaker 4>You got mute, got on mute.

439
00:23:10.279 --> 00:23:13.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna try to try something here. I just I

440
00:23:13.400 --> 00:23:16.079
<v Speaker 1>tried muting and unmuting him. We'll see it might be

441
00:23:16.279 --> 00:23:18.640
<v Speaker 1>might be on the settings there for because he can

442
00:23:18.680 --> 00:23:21.200
<v Speaker 1>hear us, which is good. We want to hear that.

443
00:23:21.279 --> 00:23:23.759
<v Speaker 1>But most importantly, we want to hear from the dude

444
00:23:23.799 --> 00:23:26.839
<v Speaker 1>who is this close to the top of the top

445
00:23:26.839 --> 00:23:31.079
<v Speaker 1>of the mountaintop in the f f PC contest. Steve.

446
00:23:31.119 --> 00:23:34.559

476
00:24:49.160 --> 00:24:49.519
<v Speaker 4>Steve.

477
00:24:49.720 --> 00:24:54.559
<v Speaker 1>Good evening, and welcome to you. Once again, technology falls

478
00:24:54.599 --> 00:24:58.680
<v Speaker 1>in the face of great f f PC high stakes players,

479
00:24:58.920 --> 00:25:02.400
<v Speaker 1>as Steve Lafountain has defeated it. Tonight, good Friday evening

480
00:25:02.440 --> 00:25:04.200
<v Speaker 1>to you. How you doing tonight, man.

481
00:25:04.359 --> 00:25:06.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm doing real good man. How about you? Guys?

482
00:25:06.359 --> 00:25:08.960
<v Speaker 1>We're doing good. Not as good as you on the

483
00:25:09.000 --> 00:25:11.440
<v Speaker 1>cusp of a no. I mean, granted, there's a long

484
00:25:11.480 --> 00:25:13.720
<v Speaker 1>season to go, but seeing your name up at the

485
00:25:13.720 --> 00:25:16.119
<v Speaker 1>top of the leaderboard for a million dollar grand prize, dude,

486
00:25:16.119 --> 00:25:17.079
<v Speaker 1>that's gotta be awesome.

487
00:25:17.519 --> 00:25:20.079
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's it's a strong feeling. You know. I've been

488
00:25:20.119 --> 00:25:22.519
<v Speaker 2>doing fancy football since back in the days where it

489
00:25:22.559 --> 00:25:24.799
<v Speaker 2>was in a newspaper, you know, me and a bunch

490
00:25:24.799 --> 00:25:26.920
<v Speaker 2>of guys that get it wrong back in early two thousands,

491
00:25:26.920 --> 00:25:30.559
<v Speaker 2>like even late nineties. But you know, you get a

492
00:25:30.559 --> 00:25:33.599
<v Speaker 2>little better each year you do this. And I'm sure

493
00:25:33.640 --> 00:25:36.039
<v Speaker 2>you can see by the amount of leagues I do that. Uh.

494
00:25:36.519 --> 00:25:38.799
<v Speaker 2>I enter quite a bit of them, mainly because I

495
00:25:38.839 --> 00:25:42.119
<v Speaker 2>win a lot of them. Uh So, you know, it's

496
00:25:42.160 --> 00:25:43.640
<v Speaker 2>a nice source of income on the side.

497
00:25:45.160 --> 00:25:50.519
<v Speaker 4>Dain is your last name French? By derivation, it is French.

498
00:25:50.559 --> 00:25:52.839
<v Speaker 2>It is pronounced the fountain, but it is French.

499
00:25:53.279 --> 00:25:56.200
<v Speaker 4>Well that put that back on I got.

500
00:25:57.759 --> 00:25:58.920
<v Speaker 1>In honor of Steve Tonight.

501
00:25:58.960 --> 00:25:59.200
<v Speaker 2>Here.

502
00:26:00.000 --> 00:26:03.759
<v Speaker 1>See when you are not having a French surname in

503
00:26:03.839 --> 00:26:07.839
<v Speaker 1>winning all these FFPC leagues over the course of your

504
00:26:07.880 --> 00:26:10.839
<v Speaker 1>career dating back to the to the nineties and the

505
00:26:10.880 --> 00:26:13.519
<v Speaker 1>eighties when you started playing with the newspapers. What are

506
00:26:13.519 --> 00:26:15.559
<v Speaker 1>you doing for a living right now? To supplant or

507
00:26:15.599 --> 00:26:16.880
<v Speaker 1>supplement I should say.

508
00:26:17.079 --> 00:26:20.960
<v Speaker 2>So, I've been in restaurants my whole life. I've been

509
00:26:21.000 --> 00:26:22.960
<v Speaker 2>in an exec chef for the last twenty three years.

510
00:26:23.200 --> 00:26:23.599
<v Speaker 4>Wow.

511
00:26:24.279 --> 00:26:27.440
<v Speaker 2>I've been literally in restaurants as I was fourteen, So

512
00:26:27.480 --> 00:26:30.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm heading into my thirty third year of running restaurants,

513
00:26:32.000 --> 00:26:34.759
<v Speaker 2>been in management pretty much since I was seventeen, and

514
00:26:35.559 --> 00:26:38.599
<v Speaker 2>you know that's just pretty much what brings everything home

515
00:26:38.640 --> 00:26:39.200
<v Speaker 2>for the family.

516
00:26:39.559 --> 00:26:42.680
<v Speaker 1>Can we promote any of the restaurants you're affiliated with tonight?

517
00:26:43.759 --> 00:26:46.079
<v Speaker 2>Uh? Yeah, I mean I actually run a private country

518
00:26:46.119 --> 00:26:50.480
<v Speaker 2>club in Huntington Beach called the Huntington Club break in

519
00:26:51.440 --> 00:26:54.039
<v Speaker 2>currently right now. But you know I used to work

520
00:26:54.079 --> 00:26:56.599
<v Speaker 2>with some main name places like Mastros back in the day,

521
00:26:56.640 --> 00:26:58.799
<v Speaker 2>and you know I was there for like six days

522
00:26:58.799 --> 00:27:01.319
<v Speaker 2>and you know, you just just like Fantasy football. Every

523
00:27:01.400 --> 00:27:02.680
<v Speaker 2>year you do it, you get a little better.

524
00:27:02.640 --> 00:27:07.079
<v Speaker 1>Right, exactly exactly? Do you have a specialty as far

525
00:27:07.119 --> 00:27:10.000
<v Speaker 1>as something maybe you like to eat or something that

526
00:27:10.039 --> 00:27:12.160
<v Speaker 1>you think you're really good at cooking for other people?

527
00:27:12.440 --> 00:27:14.799
<v Speaker 2>You know, still at a core, you know, I came

528
00:27:14.839 --> 00:27:18.279
<v Speaker 2>from a pretty you know, poor family. Growing up. There

529
00:27:18.279 --> 00:27:19.759
<v Speaker 2>wasn't a lot of money. My mom made a lot

530
00:27:19.759 --> 00:27:23.000
<v Speaker 2>of stews and pastas, and you know, I still eat

531
00:27:23.000 --> 00:27:25.720
<v Speaker 2>that way. That's my taste still to this day. I

532
00:27:25.759 --> 00:27:29.400
<v Speaker 2>can cook everything I've done any cuisine. I definitely specialize

533
00:27:29.440 --> 00:27:33.000
<v Speaker 2>in steakhouses and sushi. Those are definitely my top ends

534
00:27:33.000 --> 00:27:36.519
<v Speaker 2>in Asian cuisine. But my tend s is for myself

535
00:27:36.559 --> 00:27:38.599
<v Speaker 2>or not what I would cook for guests, you know,

536
00:27:38.680 --> 00:27:40.880
<v Speaker 2>because it's for me. It's pretty simple.

537
00:27:41.680 --> 00:27:45.279
<v Speaker 1>Oh perfect, I love it. I love it. Fantasy football

538
00:27:45.359 --> 00:27:47.720
<v Speaker 1>portion in the interview starts now, Farrell go ahead with

539
00:27:48.240 --> 00:27:49.519
<v Speaker 1>I was taking a trip to Buffalo.

540
00:27:49.880 --> 00:27:52.440
<v Speaker 4>It's been pretty simple to head to Buffalo. Just give

541
00:27:52.480 --> 00:27:55.200
<v Speaker 4>us some give us some chicken, leans and a little

542
00:27:55.200 --> 00:28:00.319
<v Speaker 4>bit of James Cook. Now, I you know you don't.

543
00:28:00.680 --> 00:28:03.400
<v Speaker 4>My first thing, my first thoughts when we got to

544
00:28:03.440 --> 00:28:07.200
<v Speaker 4>this question was to say, well, James Cook has been wonderful.

545
00:28:07.240 --> 00:28:10.440
<v Speaker 4>Twenty carries each game, since the Baltimore game. And in

546
00:28:10.599 --> 00:28:13.200
<v Speaker 4>Baltimore when he didn't run the ball that well, he

547
00:28:13.279 --> 00:28:19.400
<v Speaker 4>caught passes to back to back one hundred yard games

548
00:28:20.440 --> 00:28:24.599
<v Speaker 4>versus the Jets in Miami. But Steve I thought, well,

549
00:28:24.640 --> 00:28:26.319
<v Speaker 4>you know, you don't get to play the Jets in

550
00:28:26.440 --> 00:28:29.799
<v Speaker 4>Miami every week. And I looked at his schedule. He's

551
00:28:29.799 --> 00:28:35.279
<v Speaker 4>got the Saints coming, New England, the Falcons, and the Panthers.

552
00:28:35.720 --> 00:28:38.559
<v Speaker 4>Did you know this schedule when you drafted James Cook?

553
00:28:38.599 --> 00:28:41.960
<v Speaker 4>And how fantastic it must be and it's got to

554
00:28:42.039 --> 00:28:43.319
<v Speaker 4>stay that way, don't you think?

555
00:28:43.920 --> 00:28:45.680
<v Speaker 2>You know? I do look at a lot of the

556
00:28:45.680 --> 00:28:48.079
<v Speaker 2>schedules a lot of players. I come up with a

557
00:28:48.079 --> 00:28:50.960
<v Speaker 2>list of a couple people every year that I avoid

558
00:28:50.960 --> 00:28:52.559
<v Speaker 2>because I'm like, I love them, but I do not

559
00:28:52.640 --> 00:28:55.480
<v Speaker 2>love their matchups. I mean, and the worst part is

560
00:28:55.519 --> 00:28:57.440
<v Speaker 2>you're in the championship and you're playing the three best

561
00:28:57.440 --> 00:28:59.680
<v Speaker 2>defense at the end of the year. It kind of

562
00:28:59.680 --> 00:29:03.359
<v Speaker 2>sucks and not look at that in advance. But James Cook,

563
00:29:03.519 --> 00:29:05.440
<v Speaker 2>you know, I think it's more of an evolution with him.

564
00:29:05.759 --> 00:29:08.240
<v Speaker 2>Let's first off, talk about good jeans. I mean, Dalvin

565
00:29:08.240 --> 00:29:11.720
<v Speaker 2>Cook's his brother and he comes in and in my opinion.

566
00:29:11.799 --> 00:29:14.559
<v Speaker 2>He runs better and he's got a sturdier build. You know,

567
00:29:14.720 --> 00:29:17.079
<v Speaker 2>Dalvin Cook always had that lower waistline and kind of

568
00:29:17.079 --> 00:29:19.200
<v Speaker 2>looks like he could tip him over. But you know,

569
00:29:19.319 --> 00:29:22.039
<v Speaker 2>James Cooks runs hard. I think that it's been a

570
00:29:22.400 --> 00:29:25.759
<v Speaker 2>three years in evolution on him. Of you know, he

571
00:29:25.839 --> 00:29:27.839
<v Speaker 2>showed up at the end of two years ago and

572
00:29:27.839 --> 00:29:30.279
<v Speaker 2>then last year had a great season, and I think

573
00:29:30.319 --> 00:29:31.960
<v Speaker 2>now they're getting to the point like, hey, we got

574
00:29:31.960 --> 00:29:36.119
<v Speaker 2>to let shosh Allen, you know, live. We need him

575
00:29:36.160 --> 00:29:37.960
<v Speaker 2>to survive the next few years. He can't be taking

576
00:29:38.000 --> 00:29:41.640
<v Speaker 2>all the runs. And then when you lose Stefan Diggs.

577
00:29:42.279 --> 00:29:45.160
<v Speaker 2>Kind of they're playing ego lists wide receiver now, so

578
00:29:45.920 --> 00:29:47.960
<v Speaker 2>you know, they're not really looking to call anyone's name.

579
00:29:48.000 --> 00:29:50.039
<v Speaker 2>I think they're just constantly looking to get themselves at

580
00:29:50.079 --> 00:29:52.200
<v Speaker 2>three and one, three and two, you know, third down

581
00:29:52.240 --> 00:29:55.160
<v Speaker 2>and one, third down to two and why not run

582
00:29:55.160 --> 00:29:56.599
<v Speaker 2>it with him one or two times? See what he

583
00:29:56.599 --> 00:29:59.440
<v Speaker 2>can get you. And he's got big play breakability for

584
00:29:59.440 --> 00:30:00.839
<v Speaker 2>a sixty years all the time.

585
00:30:00.960 --> 00:30:03.640
<v Speaker 4>Well twenty plus carries back to back weeks. We probably

586
00:30:03.720 --> 00:30:06.680
<v Speaker 4>won't see that all year, but you know, two hundred

587
00:30:06.720 --> 00:30:08.440
<v Speaker 4>is the most that he had last year. But I

588
00:30:08.839 --> 00:30:13.200
<v Speaker 4>love this player's situation moving forward. And you know, especially

589
00:30:13.240 --> 00:30:16.160
<v Speaker 4>with all the injuries and lack of performance for other

590
00:30:16.240 --> 00:30:20.480
<v Speaker 4>running back, James Cooks looks like a very wise choice. Congratulations.

591
00:30:20.960 --> 00:30:22.759
<v Speaker 1>You know, I always thought you could. You brought up

592
00:30:22.839 --> 00:30:25.839
<v Speaker 1>Dalvin Cook and and I'm a Florida State fan, and

593
00:30:25.920 --> 00:30:29.880
<v Speaker 1>I always remember James Cook. He decommitted from Florida State

594
00:30:29.920 --> 00:30:32.720
<v Speaker 1>and and and it always left the bad taste in

595
00:30:32.759 --> 00:30:35.039
<v Speaker 1>my mouth. But as I was scouting this guy for

596
00:30:35.160 --> 00:30:37.720
<v Speaker 1>Dynasty stuff, and when he was a rookie, I was

597
00:30:37.799 --> 00:30:40.160
<v Speaker 1>kind of like, God, this guy looks like Dalvin Cook

598
00:30:40.240 --> 00:30:43.160
<v Speaker 1>was fast, like football fast, not combine fast, because football

599
00:30:43.200 --> 00:30:46.119
<v Speaker 1>fast like James Cook is so speedy. And I'll be

600
00:30:46.160 --> 00:30:48.400
<v Speaker 1>honest with you, I thought that was his main calling card.

601
00:30:48.440 --> 00:30:51.640
<v Speaker 1>But he has shown me a well rounded game.

602
00:30:52.079 --> 00:30:56.119
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, mister Newkark brings up something very important. He says

603
00:30:56.119 --> 00:30:59.599
<v Speaker 4>it having the MVP as your quarterback, it helps. But

604
00:31:00.200 --> 00:31:06.079
<v Speaker 4>he also the various motion that's going on and what

605
00:31:06.160 --> 00:31:10.000
<v Speaker 4>those linebackers are doing for the opposition. All that movement

606
00:31:10.119 --> 00:31:12.400
<v Speaker 4>back and forth has got to make it beautiful for

607
00:31:12.440 --> 00:31:15.160
<v Speaker 4>a running back because there's guys moving around on defense

608
00:31:15.200 --> 00:31:17.119
<v Speaker 4>and looking at a lot of different things when they

609
00:31:17.160 --> 00:31:20.119
<v Speaker 4>played this team as well as that MVP quarterback and

610
00:31:20.279 --> 00:31:21.880
<v Speaker 4>tucked the ball to take off. So yeah, it's a

611
00:31:21.880 --> 00:31:25.400
<v Speaker 4>good situation. I think fantasy players were too much concerned

612
00:31:25.440 --> 00:31:30.000
<v Speaker 4>about James Cook's contractual status. Yeah, through the early months

613
00:31:30.279 --> 00:31:33.960
<v Speaker 4>or through the late months of.

614
00:31:32.839 --> 00:31:35.480
<v Speaker 2>I think the biggest upside I saw last year they

615
00:31:35.559 --> 00:31:38.279
<v Speaker 2>really sold me on him this year was how many

616
00:31:38.279 --> 00:31:40.440
<v Speaker 2>times they actually started giving him doing in the red

617
00:31:40.519 --> 00:31:43.200
<v Speaker 2>zone and stopped running Josh Allen this much. Yeah, so

618
00:31:43.400 --> 00:31:45.680
<v Speaker 2>when I saw that, I'm like, you know, you knew

619
00:31:45.680 --> 00:31:47.559
<v Speaker 2>he was going to get the sixty eighty yards. The

620
00:31:47.640 --> 00:31:50.519
<v Speaker 2>question was inside the fight it was Josh Allen. So

621
00:31:50.880 --> 00:31:52.599
<v Speaker 2>you know, he doesn't get any TDS, but he started

622
00:31:52.599 --> 00:31:54.680
<v Speaker 2>getting some TVs last year. In fact, I think he

623
00:31:54.759 --> 00:31:57.319
<v Speaker 2>was number two or something right like, he was pretty

624
00:31:57.359 --> 00:31:59.680
<v Speaker 2>high in TDS. So, you know, I just looked at

625
00:31:59.680 --> 00:32:03.240
<v Speaker 2>the up side of Hey, you know, plus cold weather

626
00:32:03.279 --> 00:32:04.680
<v Speaker 2>ball at the end of the year. You know, I'm

627
00:32:04.680 --> 00:32:07.559
<v Speaker 2>from Ohio. I grew up in that stuff. It's uh,

628
00:32:07.839 --> 00:32:09.599
<v Speaker 2>you know, I'm in California now, but I grew up

629
00:32:09.599 --> 00:32:12.160
<v Speaker 2>in Ohio. You know, you keep the ball in the

630
00:32:12.160 --> 00:32:14.200
<v Speaker 2>safest hands when it's cold outside, and that's gonna be

631
00:32:14.240 --> 00:32:15.839
<v Speaker 2>Josh Allen's and Cook and the end of the year.

632
00:32:15.920 --> 00:32:18.839
<v Speaker 2>So figure it's got some end of year aspects to

633
00:32:18.880 --> 00:32:19.880
<v Speaker 2>it too, you know.

634
00:32:19.920 --> 00:32:21.880
<v Speaker 1>And the other thing too that I think, I mean,

635
00:32:21.880 --> 00:32:23.799
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't say it was one thing that prevented me

636
00:32:23.839 --> 00:32:25.839
<v Speaker 1>from drafting a lot of James Cook, but another thing

637
00:32:25.960 --> 00:32:27.680
<v Speaker 1>was the fact that he just wasn't on the field

638
00:32:27.680 --> 00:32:31.400
<v Speaker 1>on third downs. Hi Johnson's He's once again mitigated that

639
00:32:31.559 --> 00:32:34.279
<v Speaker 1>like this, this is a situation where he's he's it

640
00:32:34.319 --> 00:32:36.039
<v Speaker 1>doesn't matter if he's on the field for third down.

641
00:32:36.079 --> 00:32:37.839
<v Speaker 1>He's producing and that's all we care about.

642
00:32:38.119 --> 00:32:42.799
<v Speaker 4>Five catches in the first game versus Baltimore, which was great.

643
00:32:42.880 --> 00:32:46.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I want to shift things not too far from Buffalo,

644
00:32:46.480 --> 00:32:48.640
<v Speaker 1>but let's go further, a little bit further west here

645
00:32:48.680 --> 00:32:52.319
<v Speaker 1>Steve to Detroit. I heard a lot of pundits over

646
00:32:52.440 --> 00:32:55.000
<v Speaker 1>the course of the summer, and I perhaps bought into

647
00:32:55.000 --> 00:32:58.000
<v Speaker 1>this a little bit as well, that the John Morton

648
00:32:58.039 --> 00:33:01.440
<v Speaker 1>offense in Detroit was going to feature lot more downfield stuff.

649
00:33:01.480 --> 00:33:04.319
<v Speaker 1>In fact, we're going to see the big time breakout

650
00:33:04.359 --> 00:33:07.240
<v Speaker 1>season that we'd been waiting for from first former first

651
00:33:07.319 --> 00:33:11.039
<v Speaker 1>round pick Jameson Williams for Detroit and that amana Saint

652
00:33:11.039 --> 00:33:13.559
<v Speaker 1>Brown was going to take a step back. Also working

653
00:33:13.599 --> 00:33:17.640
<v Speaker 1>against Saint Brown was this off season knee cleanup surgery

654
00:33:17.799 --> 00:33:21.279
<v Speaker 1>that he had as well. And to me, it was like, God,

655
00:33:21.279 --> 00:33:23.240
<v Speaker 1>do I really want to pay first or second round

656
00:33:23.319 --> 00:33:25.960
<v Speaker 1>draft capital for Saint Brown or do I want to

657
00:33:26.000 --> 00:33:28.640
<v Speaker 1>pay you know, sixth round or seventh round for Whiskey

658
00:33:28.680 --> 00:33:31.160
<v Speaker 1>Bill and getting Jameson Williams on my team. And I

659
00:33:31.319 --> 00:33:34.599
<v Speaker 1>definitely ended up with more Williams than Saint Brown. You

660
00:33:35.200 --> 00:33:38.400
<v Speaker 1>did the opposite. You have much more Saint Brown than Williams,

661
00:33:38.640 --> 00:33:41.319
<v Speaker 1>and it's been paying off for you so far, especially

662
00:33:41.559 --> 00:33:44.359
<v Speaker 1>on your fourth place Big Gorilla team. Can you tell

663
00:33:44.440 --> 00:33:46.920
<v Speaker 1>us a little bit about why you were not willing

664
00:33:47.039 --> 00:33:50.079
<v Speaker 1>to necessarily buy into hype on Jameson Williams and you

665
00:33:50.200 --> 00:33:52.960
<v Speaker 1>still were a believer in Saint Brown in twenty twenty five,

666
00:33:53.119 --> 00:33:56.680
<v Speaker 1>a decision that's been proving very fruit fruitful for you

667
00:33:56.799 --> 00:33:57.119
<v Speaker 1>so far.

668
00:33:58.079 --> 00:34:01.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know, honestly, there is I'm gonna give a

669
00:34:01.279 --> 00:34:03.519
<v Speaker 2>little bit of my trade secret away here on drafting,

670
00:34:03.599 --> 00:34:07.000
<v Speaker 2>but I do a majority of my drafts well before

671
00:34:07.039 --> 00:34:10.199
<v Speaker 2>preseason even starts, and I know it's a risk But

672
00:34:10.320 --> 00:34:12.480
<v Speaker 2>the reason I do that is because I feel like

673
00:34:12.519 --> 00:34:15.239
<v Speaker 2>the intel I have, by the time it gets to

674
00:34:15.400 --> 00:34:17.480
<v Speaker 2>after preseason, everyone else is caught up to what I

675
00:34:17.519 --> 00:34:19.719
<v Speaker 2>already kind of know going in the season by my gut.

676
00:34:20.280 --> 00:34:23.320
<v Speaker 2>So I got him at even more of a discount

677
00:34:23.320 --> 00:34:25.519
<v Speaker 2>than you'd imagine. I was getting him mid to late

678
00:34:25.559 --> 00:34:28.480
<v Speaker 2>second round in a lot of leaks. So I'm a

679
00:34:28.519 --> 00:34:30.760
<v Speaker 2>big person on analogies. I use them all day long

680
00:34:30.760 --> 00:34:34.000
<v Speaker 2>to inspire my crews in my restaurants. But why in

681
00:34:34.039 --> 00:34:35.960
<v Speaker 2>the world would I go pay a lot of money

682
00:34:35.960 --> 00:34:37.800
<v Speaker 2>for a high end Corvette when I can go get

683
00:34:37.840 --> 00:34:40.920
<v Speaker 2>a little bit slightly used Ferrari, you know what I mean?

684
00:34:41.039 --> 00:34:44.440
<v Speaker 2>So like James Sen's the Corvette that he's gonna get you,

685
00:34:44.440 --> 00:34:47.159
<v Speaker 2>He's go look pretty, he's gonna have those big, flashy games.

686
00:34:47.199 --> 00:34:49.679
<v Speaker 2>But man, you know, Saint Brown has got amazing hands,

687
00:34:49.920 --> 00:34:53.239
<v Speaker 2>great route running, He's always open, he catches almost everything

688
00:34:53.280 --> 00:34:55.880
<v Speaker 2>thrown his way. He gets TD passes, they run him

689
00:34:55.880 --> 00:34:58.400
<v Speaker 2>out of the backfield. I mean, you talk about a Ferrari,

690
00:34:58.400 --> 00:35:00.760
<v Speaker 2>He touches the ball all the time. And let's I

691
00:35:00.800 --> 00:35:04.039
<v Speaker 2>think people overreact on this. That was not Ben Johnson's team.

692
00:35:04.039 --> 00:35:07.519
<v Speaker 2>That was Dan Campbell's team. Dan Campbell helped make Ben Johnson.

693
00:35:07.559 --> 00:35:10.239
<v Speaker 2>That's pretty evident when you look at Chicago first three

694
00:35:10.280 --> 00:35:13.079
<v Speaker 2>games and then Denver was a little not Denver Detroit

695
00:35:13.119 --> 00:35:15.599
<v Speaker 2>was a little sleepy after week one, but they quickly

696
00:35:15.599 --> 00:35:18.320
<v Speaker 2>woke up, didn't they, you know, and not a whole

697
00:35:18.320 --> 00:35:20.599
<v Speaker 2>lot has changed really. That offense looked pretty good versus

698
00:35:20.760 --> 00:35:24.960
<v Speaker 2>Foot Baltimore this past week. Right. You know, I have

699
00:35:25.039 --> 00:35:28.119
<v Speaker 2>nothing against Wilton Williams. Is just if I'm gonna sit

700
00:35:28.119 --> 00:35:30.320
<v Speaker 2>there and buy Williams in the fourth to sixth round

701
00:35:30.360 --> 00:35:32.440
<v Speaker 2>or I'm gonna get I'm ran Saint Brown in late

702
00:35:32.480 --> 00:35:35.039
<v Speaker 2>one or early two. Man, I'm gonna take the guy

703
00:35:35.039 --> 00:35:37.639
<v Speaker 2>that I know is gonna get the passes. And Jamison

704
00:35:37.639 --> 00:35:39.679
<v Speaker 2>missed so much time. I mean, you want to talk

705
00:35:39.679 --> 00:35:42.000
<v Speaker 2>about injuries, Jamison Williams missed way more time than Saint

706
00:35:42.000 --> 00:35:42.480
<v Speaker 2>Brown has.

707
00:35:43.079 --> 00:35:46.480
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and you look at this situation. The beauty, the

708
00:35:46.480 --> 00:35:49.519
<v Speaker 4>beautiful thing about it is you're not You're not limited

709
00:35:49.599 --> 00:35:51.719
<v Speaker 4>to only one decort player.

710
00:35:52.079 --> 00:35:55.920
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, that's that's another good point to bring up

711
00:35:55.960 --> 00:35:59.039
<v Speaker 1>as well. Guys. I want to bring up a question

712
00:35:59.079 --> 00:36:01.559
<v Speaker 1>from the chat before where we move forward here, and

713
00:36:01.559 --> 00:36:04.360
<v Speaker 1>and it's from Corey Walters hanging out watching us on

714
00:36:04.400 --> 00:36:06.519
<v Speaker 1>YouTube tonight and he wants to know. And I'm gonna

715
00:36:06.519 --> 00:36:08.760
<v Speaker 1>throw this to you first, Steve, as far as getting

716
00:36:08.760 --> 00:36:11.599
<v Speaker 1>your thoughts on this, what is going on with Sam

717
00:36:11.679 --> 00:36:14.840
<v Speaker 1>Laporta right now? So if you look at Laporta's stats

718
00:36:15.519 --> 00:36:19.480
<v Speaker 1>over the course of the first three weeks of the season,

719
00:36:19.880 --> 00:36:22.039
<v Speaker 1>and I think we have to throw on the let's

720
00:36:22.039 --> 00:36:25.639
<v Speaker 1>add some context on this, Like Detroit went absolutely crazy

721
00:36:26.039 --> 00:36:28.920
<v Speaker 1>against Chicago and then against Baltimore. They put up a

722
00:36:28.920 --> 00:36:31.320
<v Speaker 1>lot of numbers. So it's not like they're, you know,

723
00:36:31.440 --> 00:36:35.599
<v Speaker 1>just scuffling along. They're doing numbers here. Obviously Week one

724
00:36:35.639 --> 00:36:37.840
<v Speaker 1>was kind of the outlier against the Packers only scoring

725
00:36:37.880 --> 00:36:41.039
<v Speaker 1>thirteen points, but fifty two against the Bears, I mean,

726
00:36:41.159 --> 00:36:43.639
<v Speaker 1>thirty eight against the Ravens. This is an offense that's

727
00:36:43.679 --> 00:36:46.840
<v Speaker 1>doing numbers. And if you look at Sam Laporta so

728
00:36:46.960 --> 00:36:50.840
<v Speaker 1>far this season, thirteen catches over three games, He's got

729
00:36:50.880 --> 00:36:53.880
<v Speaker 1>one hundred and thirty eight yards over three games, no touchdowns.

730
00:36:54.199 --> 00:36:57.159
<v Speaker 1>Not the end of the world here, Steve, but can

731
00:36:57.199 --> 00:37:02.039
<v Speaker 1>you give some hope for Laporta laporta owners going forward

732
00:37:02.239 --> 00:37:06.079
<v Speaker 1>and what you think has been his biggest problem going forward?

733
00:37:06.079 --> 00:37:07.360
<v Speaker 1>In the first three weeks of the season.

734
00:37:08.159 --> 00:37:10.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean that one's just kind of I think

735
00:37:10.400 --> 00:37:13.079
<v Speaker 2>it's just bad timing. I think people living a little

736
00:37:13.079 --> 00:37:15.360
<v Speaker 2>bit in the past of his rookie year. You know,

737
00:37:16.039 --> 00:37:18.079
<v Speaker 2>let's let's look at it, and rookie year, there was

738
00:37:18.119 --> 00:37:20.960
<v Speaker 2>no Jamar Gibbs. They didn't have Montgomery or he had

739
00:37:21.000 --> 00:37:23.559
<v Speaker 2>just came in, Jamison Williams was still out. It was

740
00:37:23.679 --> 00:37:26.360
<v Speaker 2>just Omran Saint Brown and Dan Campbell had just gotten there.

741
00:37:26.599 --> 00:37:28.880
<v Speaker 2>They were starting to figure things out. They weren't really.

742
00:37:29.519 --> 00:37:31.840
<v Speaker 2>I think it's more of a product of who do

743
00:37:31.880 --> 00:37:33.400
<v Speaker 2>you want them to get the ball? Do you want

744
00:37:33.480 --> 00:37:35.599
<v Speaker 2>Jamier Gibbs, do you want Saint Brown or do you

745
00:37:35.639 --> 00:37:37.159
<v Speaker 2>want Williams? Or do you want to check it down

746
00:37:37.159 --> 00:37:39.280
<v Speaker 2>to a tight end for five yards? I mean, you've

747
00:37:39.320 --> 00:37:42.519
<v Speaker 2>got big play capability in Montgomery and all those guys.

748
00:37:42.880 --> 00:37:45.079
<v Speaker 2>There's no need for him down in the red zone

749
00:37:45.079 --> 00:37:47.719
<v Speaker 2>because they can run. Like, why do you want to

750
00:37:47.800 --> 00:37:49.360
<v Speaker 2>check out for a five yard pass when you can

751
00:37:49.400 --> 00:37:51.760
<v Speaker 2>run it for five yards with one of two great options?

752
00:37:52.039 --> 00:37:54.000
<v Speaker 2>You don't You don't have to check it down to

753
00:37:54.880 --> 00:37:57.480
<v Speaker 2>Laport's in my opinion anymore. And then you know the

754
00:37:57.519 --> 00:37:59.559
<v Speaker 2>stuff we never know. Maybe the guy's just not the

755
00:37:59.559 --> 00:38:02.599
<v Speaker 2>same as have his knee blown out, you know, I mean,

756
00:38:02.639 --> 00:38:04.800
<v Speaker 2>maybe he just maybe they don't want to put him

757
00:38:04.800 --> 00:38:07.239
<v Speaker 2>those positions. Maybe they're still being cautious. Maybe they want

758
00:38:07.239 --> 00:38:10.639
<v Speaker 2>to turn him into game script like the way Kelsey

759
00:38:10.719 --> 00:38:12.519
<v Speaker 2>is used in the end zone. Eventually later in the season.

760
00:38:12.519 --> 00:38:14.840
<v Speaker 2>They don't watch to other hands early. I'm not saying

761
00:38:14.840 --> 00:38:17.840
<v Speaker 2>he has no value, but you know you're gonna pay

762
00:38:17.840 --> 00:38:19.480
<v Speaker 2>a high price to get him in the earlier rounds

763
00:38:19.519 --> 00:38:21.440
<v Speaker 2>when you get someone in the twelfth and fourteenth round

764
00:38:21.440 --> 00:38:23.079
<v Speaker 2>for the same value, in my opinion.

765
00:38:23.000 --> 00:38:25.480
<v Speaker 4>And you're dealing with a quarterback that goes through his

766
00:38:25.519 --> 00:38:28.760
<v Speaker 4>progressions and then does not, as you say, does not

767
00:38:28.960 --> 00:38:32.239
<v Speaker 4>check down. He's he's looking for that fourth and fifth option.

768
00:38:32.800 --> 00:38:35.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he wants that big play. And let's be honest,

769
00:38:35.400 --> 00:38:37.159
<v Speaker 2>if you had to choose, are you gonna throw it

770
00:38:37.199 --> 00:38:41.880
<v Speaker 2>to Laporta four yards down the field in coverage, or

771
00:38:41.920 --> 00:38:43.800
<v Speaker 2>you're gonna throw it to Gibbs in the backfield with

772
00:38:43.840 --> 00:38:46.360
<v Speaker 2>one man in coverage on him. I'm going to Gibbs

773
00:38:46.360 --> 00:38:48.079
<v Speaker 2>because I'm pretty sure Gibbs gona probably break that.

774
00:38:48.760 --> 00:38:50.400
<v Speaker 4>But I think at the end of the day, We're

775
00:38:50.440 --> 00:38:52.840
<v Speaker 4>going to see Laporte a pay just about what he

776
00:38:52.880 --> 00:38:55.840
<v Speaker 4>should pay, or give us just what he should give

777
00:38:55.920 --> 00:38:59.719
<v Speaker 4>us for his draft capital, but not beyond that. Yeah,

778
00:38:59.800 --> 00:39:02.760
<v Speaker 4>don't there's another side, and here's another tight end. I

779
00:39:02.760 --> 00:39:07.119
<v Speaker 4>got to talk to you about draft Captain, and it's

780
00:39:07.199 --> 00:39:12.039
<v Speaker 4>it's just this matchup with Baltimore and Kansas City this

781
00:39:12.119 --> 00:39:15.840
<v Speaker 4>weekend is difficult for me to realize that one of

782
00:39:15.880 --> 00:39:17.400
<v Speaker 4>these teams is going to walk out of this one

783
00:39:17.480 --> 00:39:21.079
<v Speaker 4>in three And I still these are my one and

784
00:39:21.159 --> 00:39:24.360
<v Speaker 4>two teams from the AFC to play in to play

785
00:39:24.360 --> 00:39:27.599
<v Speaker 4>in the Super Bowl, And I still love watching these teams.

786
00:39:27.639 --> 00:39:28.519
<v Speaker 4>But I like what.

787
00:39:30.239 --> 00:39:30.880
<v Speaker 1>I like what.

788
00:39:31.400 --> 00:39:36.199
<v Speaker 4>Lays in front of them, especially with Baltimore in this division.

789
00:39:36.199 --> 00:39:39.000
<v Speaker 4>But let's look at Kansas City with the tight end situation,

790
00:39:39.599 --> 00:39:43.840
<v Speaker 4>and that's Travis Kelcey. The team came alive a little

791
00:39:43.880 --> 00:39:46.000
<v Speaker 4>bit in the second half of their last game against

792
00:39:46.000 --> 00:39:48.719
<v Speaker 4>the Giants, and we all saw when Kelsey had a

793
00:39:48.719 --> 00:39:51.599
<v Speaker 4>good game and was ready to score a touchdown, how

794
00:39:51.639 --> 00:39:54.039
<v Speaker 4>the ball bounced off of him and became an interception.

795
00:39:54.719 --> 00:39:59.599
<v Speaker 4>Do you think what we're seeing with Kelsey is in

796
00:39:59.679 --> 00:40:02.880
<v Speaker 4>dick of what's going to be forthcoming, or do you

797
00:40:02.960 --> 00:40:06.960
<v Speaker 4>think we're gonna get production that comes back into historical

798
00:40:07.079 --> 00:40:10.199
<v Speaker 4>numbers for him, which would add up to ninety or

799
00:40:10.199 --> 00:40:11.239
<v Speaker 4>one hundred catches.

800
00:40:11.480 --> 00:40:14.679
<v Speaker 2>Now, you know. I look, I've loved Travis Kelsey. I

801
00:40:14.719 --> 00:40:16.920
<v Speaker 2>love everything about him. He's an Ohio boy, just like me.

802
00:40:17.480 --> 00:40:20.880
<v Speaker 2>He he plays hard, does everything hard. But you know

803
00:40:20.920 --> 00:40:23.280
<v Speaker 2>he's been in the career, his career. You know, he's

804
00:40:23.320 --> 00:40:26.559
<v Speaker 2>he's focused on getting married. He's it's the end of

805
00:40:26.599 --> 00:40:29.599
<v Speaker 2>the road. They've already won multiple super Bowls, They've done everything.

806
00:40:30.440 --> 00:40:33.119
<v Speaker 2>I'm not saying the love luster is there, but you

807
00:40:33.119 --> 00:40:36.400
<v Speaker 2>know that he's gonna be gone in the net year

808
00:40:36.480 --> 00:40:39.119
<v Speaker 2>or two. Mahomes is gonna keep going another five ten years.

809
00:40:39.400 --> 00:40:41.599
<v Speaker 2>That team needs to figure out how to play without him,

810
00:40:41.960 --> 00:40:44.639
<v Speaker 2>and I think that right now they're trying to figure

811
00:40:44.639 --> 00:40:47.119
<v Speaker 2>that out a little bit. I think he's gonna still

812
00:40:47.119 --> 00:40:48.800
<v Speaker 2>have some key games. I think when it comes to

813
00:40:48.840 --> 00:40:52.079
<v Speaker 2>the playoffs, sports can always have those games where he

814
00:40:52.199 --> 00:40:55.280
<v Speaker 2>just goes off. They will come intermitting. But I think

815
00:40:55.320 --> 00:40:57.239
<v Speaker 2>that's where you're relying on him for eight to ten

816
00:40:57.320 --> 00:40:59.760
<v Speaker 2>catch for eighty five yards and one or two touchdowns

817
00:40:59.760 --> 00:41:02.760
<v Speaker 2>are over, you know, And it sucks because I think

818
00:41:02.760 --> 00:41:05.679
<v Speaker 2>he has it, but I think there's mentally something going on,

819
00:41:05.719 --> 00:41:08.280
<v Speaker 2>whether they'll admit it or not. But I mean that

820
00:41:08.320 --> 00:41:11.239
<v Speaker 2>first pass around to him where on this last game

821
00:41:11.280 --> 00:41:15.000
<v Speaker 2>where he like Mahomes literally missed him. They are not

822
00:41:15.079 --> 00:41:17.199
<v Speaker 2>in sync the way they used to be. You know,

823
00:41:17.360 --> 00:41:20.039
<v Speaker 2>they had a couple of connections in that game, but man,

824
00:41:20.199 --> 00:41:22.679
<v Speaker 2>like that was eye opening. He I mean, he was

825
00:41:22.960 --> 00:41:24.719
<v Speaker 2>five yards off where he was supposed to be. One

826
00:41:24.760 --> 00:41:28.360
<v Speaker 2>of them was either Mahomes or Kelsey. But something's not

827
00:41:28.519 --> 00:41:31.320
<v Speaker 2>just jiving the way it was. And maybe it's because

828
00:41:31.440 --> 00:41:33.719
<v Speaker 2>the teams told Kelsey things we don't know, like, hey,

829
00:41:33.719 --> 00:41:35.360
<v Speaker 2>you're not gonna see as much play. We need to

830
00:41:35.679 --> 00:41:37.480
<v Speaker 2>see what this team looks like for two thousand and

831
00:41:37.559 --> 00:41:40.800
<v Speaker 2>six and seven, twenty twenty six, and twenty seven. You know,

832
00:41:41.320 --> 00:41:43.760
<v Speaker 2>I wouldn't be surprised if this is Kelsey's last season.

833
00:41:44.840 --> 00:41:47.280
<v Speaker 1>The other aspect that we had to bring up, like

834
00:41:47.320 --> 00:41:50.599
<v Speaker 1>Corey Walters brings us up on YouTube right now with

835
00:41:51.599 --> 00:41:54.960
<v Speaker 1>Noah Gray. Is he the next great tight end in

836
00:41:55.000 --> 00:41:57.679
<v Speaker 1>Kansas City or you think they're gonna look elsewhere for

837
00:41:57.960 --> 00:41:59.519
<v Speaker 1>the second half of Mahomes' career.

838
00:41:59.519 --> 00:42:01.719
<v Speaker 2>There, Steve, what I saw in the last game, It

839
00:42:01.760 --> 00:42:03.320
<v Speaker 2>looks to me like they're trying to see if he's

840
00:42:03.320 --> 00:42:05.960
<v Speaker 2>got it, you know, like because the routes that Kelsey

841
00:42:06.000 --> 00:42:08.840
<v Speaker 2>normally got they were going to Gray, you know, and

842
00:42:08.920 --> 00:42:11.599
<v Speaker 2>it was kind of that rollout role. I mean, whenever

843
00:42:11.639 --> 00:42:13.320
<v Speaker 2>you have that roll out to the right and then

844
00:42:13.360 --> 00:42:15.519
<v Speaker 2>did you see the split image of the exact route

845
00:42:15.559 --> 00:42:18.039
<v Speaker 2>running that Kelsey does, that one where he steps in

846
00:42:18.039 --> 00:42:19.920
<v Speaker 2>and he steps out and he's kind of open and

847
00:42:19.960 --> 00:42:22.280
<v Speaker 2>he has five yards of roll to his left. Did

848
00:42:22.280 --> 00:42:24.440
<v Speaker 2>you notice Gray on like the next series did the

849
00:42:24.519 --> 00:42:28.079
<v Speaker 2>exact same play route. Yeah, I mean I don't. I

850
00:42:28.119 --> 00:42:30.400
<v Speaker 2>don't find that as coincidental. I think that's can you

851
00:42:30.440 --> 00:42:33.519
<v Speaker 2>do what Kelsey does? So I think they're trying to

852
00:42:33.519 --> 00:42:36.000
<v Speaker 2>see if he is, and if he can't, then yeah,

853
00:42:36.039 --> 00:42:37.639
<v Speaker 2>they might be in the market for one, or they

854
00:42:37.679 --> 00:42:39.840
<v Speaker 2>might just go into the field of bio one and

855
00:42:39.960 --> 00:42:41.559
<v Speaker 2>draft one like everyone else seems to do.

856
00:42:41.920 --> 00:42:45.400
<v Speaker 4>There's things I liked about Kelsey's foot moving and route

857
00:42:45.440 --> 00:42:47.199
<v Speaker 4>running that I did see in the end of that

858
00:42:47.239 --> 00:42:49.559
<v Speaker 4>Giants game. It's like he came alive. There's a whole

859
00:42:49.599 --> 00:42:52.519
<v Speaker 4>lot of players that seem to be ghost walking and

860
00:42:52.599 --> 00:42:56.440
<v Speaker 4>the Kansas City Chiefs right now, But I agree with you.

861
00:42:56.840 --> 00:43:01.039
<v Speaker 4>It's you know, since we've got tras Kelsey this season,

862
00:43:01.039 --> 00:43:03.039
<v Speaker 4>we're very glad we got him because he's a pleasure

863
00:43:03.079 --> 00:43:06.280
<v Speaker 4>to watch play football. I don't think no great a

864
00:43:06.360 --> 00:43:09.400
<v Speaker 4>step into those shoes, and I don't think many Tidians can.

865
00:43:10.400 --> 00:43:12.840
<v Speaker 1>It'll it'll be tough. But the other thing too, is

866
00:43:12.880 --> 00:43:15.280
<v Speaker 1>you won't have the pressure of Gray, won't have the

867
00:43:15.320 --> 00:43:18.199
<v Speaker 1>pressure of having to be the guy. If you know

868
00:43:18.280 --> 00:43:20.840
<v Speaker 1>Thornton keeps playing the way he does, and you know

869
00:43:20.960 --> 00:43:23.800
<v Speaker 1>Rashie Rice comes back and Xavier Worthy keeps showing out

870
00:43:24.039 --> 00:43:25.719
<v Speaker 1>like great can just kind of like be who he

871
00:43:25.880 --> 00:43:29.679
<v Speaker 1>is and and that'll be plenty in that Kansas City offense.

872
00:43:29.960 --> 00:43:31.679
<v Speaker 1>I want to focus it in on week four for

873
00:43:31.719 --> 00:43:35.440
<v Speaker 1>this next question here. Steve and Mike Evans not expected

874
00:43:35.480 --> 00:43:38.760
<v Speaker 1>to play this week for Tampa. Chris Godwin officially listed

875
00:43:38.760 --> 00:43:41.880
<v Speaker 1>as questionable on the final injury report for the Bucks

876
00:43:41.920 --> 00:43:45.719
<v Speaker 1>this week. If we look back to last year in

877
00:43:46.280 --> 00:43:48.760
<v Speaker 1>those games that Evans and Godwin missed when they didn't

878
00:43:48.800 --> 00:43:52.599
<v Speaker 1>have a mecha agbuka uh. And I'll admit that right away,

879
00:43:53.119 --> 00:43:55.280
<v Speaker 1>Kate Oughton was really, really good. You think this is

880
00:43:55.320 --> 00:43:58.159
<v Speaker 1>a Kate Otton week against Philly.

881
00:43:57.960 --> 00:44:00.440
<v Speaker 2>You know, I would love to say yes, but you know,

882
00:44:01.480 --> 00:44:03.840
<v Speaker 2>sometimes you got admit when you draft some things wrong.

883
00:44:03.960 --> 00:44:06.000
<v Speaker 2>And I drafted him in a lot of leagues as

884
00:44:06.000 --> 00:44:09.239
<v Speaker 2>a late pick, so did I before the season before

885
00:44:09.280 --> 00:44:11.559
<v Speaker 2>McMillan's injury. I had Jaylen McMillan in a lot of

886
00:44:11.599 --> 00:44:16.199
<v Speaker 2>leagues too. I think he's gonna see some volume, definitely

887
00:44:16.239 --> 00:44:18.760
<v Speaker 2>because there's injury. But you know, they were already starting

888
00:44:18.760 --> 00:44:20.760
<v Speaker 2>to get Tesz Johnson, which I think people forget how

889
00:44:20.800 --> 00:44:23.559
<v Speaker 2>amazing he was in Oregon. And on top of that,

890
00:44:23.639 --> 00:44:26.400
<v Speaker 2>you still got Sterling Shepherd, who is a veteran knows

891
00:44:26.400 --> 00:44:29.320
<v Speaker 2>how to get open in the slot. I don't think

892
00:44:29.360 --> 00:44:31.159
<v Speaker 2>it's going to turn into a Katatten game. I think

893
00:44:31.199 --> 00:44:34.840
<v Speaker 2>what you might see is full throttle. What Canamiko umbucca?

894
00:44:35.000 --> 00:44:36.000
<v Speaker 2>Do you know what I mean?

895
00:44:36.079 --> 00:44:36.199
<v Speaker 3>Like?

896
00:44:37.039 --> 00:44:39.320
<v Speaker 2>Can the guy get fifteen catches for two hundred and

897
00:44:39.320 --> 00:44:41.639
<v Speaker 2>twenty yards and two touchdowns? I think we might find

898
00:44:41.679 --> 00:44:44.440
<v Speaker 2>out this week, you know. I think they're gonna just

899
00:44:44.519 --> 00:44:47.400
<v Speaker 2>go at him. I think the kayd Otten will definitely

900
00:44:47.400 --> 00:44:49.239
<v Speaker 2>see an uptick in some passes from what we've seen

901
00:44:49.239 --> 00:44:51.639
<v Speaker 2>in the last few weeks. But man, I was expecting

902
00:44:51.639 --> 00:44:53.760
<v Speaker 2>a lot more production after him in the first three weeks.

903
00:44:53.800 --> 00:44:57.280
<v Speaker 2>But true transparency, I've already started dropping a few leagues

904
00:44:57.280 --> 00:44:59.639
<v Speaker 2>because I just don't see it turning around. Because if

905
00:44:59.639 --> 00:45:02.639
<v Speaker 2>he wasn't getting it early in the league, with God

906
00:45:02.679 --> 00:45:05.119
<v Speaker 2>went out and and Buka being a rookie, I don't

907
00:45:05.159 --> 00:45:08.000
<v Speaker 2>see how if Evans returns and God wins healthy and

908
00:45:08.039 --> 00:45:09.679
<v Speaker 2>he got in Buka, I don't see where he sees

909
00:45:09.719 --> 00:45:11.760
<v Speaker 2>any more than four or five targets a game.

910
00:45:12.679 --> 00:45:12.760
<v Speaker 1>Uh.

911
00:45:12.960 --> 00:45:15.599
<v Speaker 2>But to your point, yeah, anything could happen this week.

912
00:45:15.760 --> 00:45:17.480
<v Speaker 2>He could have a blowout, but I'm not going to

913
00:45:17.599 --> 00:45:20.639
<v Speaker 2>risk it on When I got people like Jake Ferguson

914
00:45:20.639 --> 00:45:22.679
<v Speaker 2>in my tight end spot that I could put in there,

915
00:45:24.119 --> 00:45:25.800
<v Speaker 2>you know, it was in a much better position.

916
00:45:27.199 --> 00:45:30.039
<v Speaker 4>I I agree with you with that Buka becomes the

917
00:45:30.119 --> 00:45:33.239
<v Speaker 4>new Pookah. I love that. I think they could be.

918
00:45:33.239 --> 00:45:35.480
<v Speaker 1>What it happens, Yeah, well, that we could combine him

919
00:45:35.519 --> 00:45:37.119
<v Speaker 1>and he'd be Pooka at Buka.

920
00:45:37.639 --> 00:45:43.039
<v Speaker 4>Yeah right, fifteen targets that would be Pooka. Like about

921
00:45:43.039 --> 00:45:46.760
<v Speaker 4>the talk to me about the Rams backfield coorm ate

922
00:45:46.840 --> 00:45:49.760
<v Speaker 4>into a little bit of Card Williams activities this past week.

923
00:45:49.880 --> 00:45:52.800
<v Speaker 4>I like Williams and he is He's one of the

924
00:45:52.840 --> 00:45:55.400
<v Speaker 4>backs I'm counting, you know on this year, is kor

925
00:45:55.639 --> 00:45:58.079
<v Speaker 4>gonna continue to eat away of his opportunities?

926
00:45:59.039 --> 00:46:01.400
<v Speaker 2>You know, if you look at the snaps and the attempts,

927
00:46:01.440 --> 00:46:04.039
<v Speaker 2>they are upticking each week one to five to eight.

928
00:46:04.119 --> 00:46:04.440
<v Speaker 4>You know.

929
00:46:06.679 --> 00:46:10.000
<v Speaker 2>Korm' is a strong back man. He's a Michigan product.

930
00:46:10.599 --> 00:46:12.840
<v Speaker 2>Ego lists he shared the ball in the backfield then

931
00:46:12.880 --> 00:46:16.519
<v Speaker 2>I think with Mullings when he was there, so I

932
00:46:16.559 --> 00:46:19.239
<v Speaker 2>think of the two people he's okay with sharing the ball,

933
00:46:20.159 --> 00:46:22.519
<v Speaker 2>Kyen Williams is still their belcal though. I mean, even

934
00:46:22.519 --> 00:46:25.639
<v Speaker 2>though he's getting an uptick he had eighteen, seventeen and twenty.

935
00:46:25.920 --> 00:46:28.480
<v Speaker 2>I think the biggest thing in fantasy value is the

936
00:46:28.519 --> 00:46:31.000
<v Speaker 2>passes are still going to Kyrie, They're not going to Korm.

937
00:46:31.599 --> 00:46:34.199
<v Speaker 2>I think that my worry of a shift is fantasy

938
00:46:34.239 --> 00:46:37.440
<v Speaker 2>of Koram. Would if I started seeing passes going to Koram,

939
00:46:37.880 --> 00:46:41.480
<v Speaker 2>I'd start worrying more about that time share factor. But

940
00:46:41.599 --> 00:46:44.280
<v Speaker 2>right now, Kyrie's still got the passing backfield option, So

941
00:46:45.079 --> 00:46:46.679
<v Speaker 2>if I see him lose some of that, then I

942
00:46:46.719 --> 00:46:49.000
<v Speaker 2>would start saying, yeah, Korm's starting to work his way

943
00:46:49.000 --> 00:46:49.840
<v Speaker 2>into the touch field.

944
00:46:53.000 --> 00:46:59.599
<v Speaker 1>I have to ask in regards to the Raiders situation,

945
00:47:00.440 --> 00:47:02.760
<v Speaker 1>and I don't want to make this into a Raiders

946
00:47:02.760 --> 00:47:05.239
<v Speaker 1>show as much as Pharaoh would love that. Oh, I

947
00:47:05.280 --> 00:47:08.280
<v Speaker 1>know you have Jacoby Myers. Do you have him on

948
00:47:08.320 --> 00:47:10.679
<v Speaker 1>your fourth place team right now?

949
00:47:10.719 --> 00:47:10.960
<v Speaker 2>Steve?

950
00:47:10.960 --> 00:47:12.079
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you do. I know you got

951
00:47:12.119 --> 00:47:13.079
<v Speaker 1>him on a bunch of teams.

952
00:47:13.400 --> 00:47:16.519
<v Speaker 2>You know, I probably do because he was always there

953
00:47:16.760 --> 00:47:19.079
<v Speaker 2>in that seven eight round where I was like, man, like,

954
00:47:19.119 --> 00:47:21.880
<v Speaker 2>this could be a number one receiver in the late rounds.

955
00:47:21.880 --> 00:47:25.199
<v Speaker 2>And I like Gino, and I think Gino does Geno

956
00:47:25.320 --> 00:47:27.960
<v Speaker 2>things sometimes, you know, but for the most part, he

957
00:47:28.000 --> 00:47:33.480
<v Speaker 2>can complete it to a lead receiver. But I'd have

958
00:47:33.519 --> 00:47:35.039
<v Speaker 2>to use my phone to pull it up. But I

959
00:47:35.079 --> 00:47:35.920
<v Speaker 2>can't do it right now.

960
00:47:35.960 --> 00:47:37.719
<v Speaker 1>Don't worry about it, because you can answer this question

961
00:47:37.760 --> 00:47:40.480
<v Speaker 1>without pulling it up. Trey Tucker put up forty plus

962
00:47:40.559 --> 00:47:45.519
<v Speaker 1>points last week, as we all expected, so in regards

963
00:47:45.559 --> 00:47:48.119
<v Speaker 1>to what we saw from a breakout of Talker, I'm

964
00:47:48.159 --> 00:47:50.639
<v Speaker 1>of the belief that he has a significant week to

965
00:47:50.679 --> 00:47:53.719
<v Speaker 1>week role on this team. How much do you think

966
00:47:53.920 --> 00:47:57.480
<v Speaker 1>what he did in week three carries over? And I'll

967
00:47:57.559 --> 00:47:59.280
<v Speaker 1>just put this out there right now. I think a

968
00:47:59.440 --> 00:48:01.880
<v Speaker 1>Trey Tucker's best game of the year was this past week.

969
00:48:02.000 --> 00:48:03.719
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he does anything better than that, but

970
00:48:03.760 --> 00:48:05.920
<v Speaker 1>I do think he has these good games. How much

971
00:48:05.960 --> 00:48:08.679
<v Speaker 1>do you think his role eats into the pro production

972
00:48:09.119 --> 00:48:11.159
<v Speaker 1>of Jacoby Myers on this squad right now?

973
00:48:12.559 --> 00:48:15.079
<v Speaker 2>I don't think it's gonna hurt it that much, honestly,

974
00:48:16.159 --> 00:48:19.280
<v Speaker 2>and true transparency. The way that the line is blocking

975
00:48:19.320 --> 00:48:21.639
<v Speaker 2>for genty, they just might be going more passing. You

976
00:48:21.639 --> 00:48:25.000
<v Speaker 2>know that's not on genty right now. Genty's look good

977
00:48:25.000 --> 00:48:26.679
<v Speaker 2>in some moments when he does get the ball, but

978
00:48:26.880 --> 00:48:29.360
<v Speaker 2>to your point earlier, he's getting hit behind the line

979
00:48:29.400 --> 00:48:31.920
<v Speaker 2>a lot. But I mean, I think it's more of

980
00:48:31.960 --> 00:48:34.880
<v Speaker 2>sometimes like people forget about game plans. Brock Bauers is hurt,

981
00:48:35.320 --> 00:48:38.079
<v Speaker 2>they're not trying to hit him. I'm gonna say easily

982
00:48:38.199 --> 00:48:41.840
<v Speaker 2>that I think Trey Tucker had nine targets on this game.

983
00:48:43.159 --> 00:48:45.639
<v Speaker 2>Probably four of those targets he got were because Bowers

984
00:48:45.679 --> 00:48:47.719
<v Speaker 2>wasn't getting them because they were trying to keep him safe.

985
00:48:48.119 --> 00:48:50.000
<v Speaker 2>So I think he got four more targets and he

986
00:48:50.039 --> 00:48:53.440
<v Speaker 2>probably ever will get. I mean, and Bower's got hurt

987
00:48:53.440 --> 00:48:55.239
<v Speaker 2>in that second game, so he kind of got some

988
00:48:55.280 --> 00:48:57.960
<v Speaker 2>more at the end of that game too. I think

989
00:48:57.960 --> 00:49:01.159
<v Speaker 2>he's still is safe six to seven target. I think

990
00:49:01.199 --> 00:49:04.440
<v Speaker 2>he might get you five receptions if he pops one

991
00:49:04.440 --> 00:49:08.079
<v Speaker 2>off for a long distance, maybe eighty yards. But I

992
00:49:08.159 --> 00:49:11.199
<v Speaker 2>still think your touchdown options in the red zone for

993
00:49:11.239 --> 00:49:14.639
<v Speaker 2>the most part are gonna be in order. Jint if

994
00:49:14.639 --> 00:49:18.719
<v Speaker 2>they can get the running going. Bowers obviously, and Jacobean.

995
00:49:19.000 --> 00:49:20.559
<v Speaker 2>I mean, are you gonna take a five eight guy

996
00:49:20.639 --> 00:49:24.440
<v Speaker 2>or you gotta take Jacoby bones Jacoby Myers in one

997
00:49:24.480 --> 00:49:27.480
<v Speaker 2>on one? I mean, I'm taking the bigger guy one

998
00:49:27.519 --> 00:49:30.000
<v Speaker 2>on one in the red zone. So I think the

999
00:49:30.039 --> 00:49:34.519
<v Speaker 2>big play capability for Trey Harris just worked Trey. Sorry, Trey,

1000
00:49:34.559 --> 00:49:37.480
<v Speaker 2>Tucker worked out this week. He just had a good week.

1001
00:49:37.559 --> 00:49:41.159
<v Speaker 2>You know. I don't think it meets into it too much.

1002
00:49:41.880 --> 00:49:51.519
<v Speaker 4>Raiders in the red Zone. What a beautiful thought, sunny day, Steve.

1003
00:49:51.760 --> 00:49:55.000
<v Speaker 4>I feel very very strongly about what I'm gonna ask you,

1004
00:49:55.559 --> 00:49:57.400
<v Speaker 4>and I'm not going to share my opinion because I

1005
00:49:57.440 --> 00:50:00.559
<v Speaker 4>want to hear yours and then I'll talk about And

1006
00:50:00.599 --> 00:50:04.039
<v Speaker 4>it's a theme that I've beaten on the table about

1007
00:50:04.159 --> 00:50:09.679
<v Speaker 4>in this show, and so I think anyone that as

1008
00:50:09.679 --> 00:50:11.719
<v Speaker 4>foolish enough to pay attention to what I have to

1009
00:50:11.760 --> 00:50:14.639
<v Speaker 4>say already knows how I'm gonna answer this, But Zay

1010
00:50:14.679 --> 00:50:17.639
<v Speaker 4>Flowers when he came into the league and still today,

1011
00:50:17.679 --> 00:50:19.559
<v Speaker 4>I think he's one of the most exciting players in

1012
00:50:19.599 --> 00:50:22.159
<v Speaker 4>the league. I love the player. I love the guy.

1013
00:50:22.440 --> 00:50:25.280
<v Speaker 4>I once said he's the most who was the rookie

1014
00:50:25.320 --> 00:50:27.920
<v Speaker 4>the most reminded me of Tyreek Hill and that we've

1015
00:50:27.920 --> 00:50:29.840
<v Speaker 4>had since he's coming to the league, he's still the

1016
00:50:29.920 --> 00:50:32.519
<v Speaker 4>rookie that reminds me, or still the newest player in

1017
00:50:32.559 --> 00:50:36.000
<v Speaker 4>the league that reminds me of Tyreek Hill. What we

1018
00:50:36.119 --> 00:50:39.599
<v Speaker 4>saw in weeks one and two, it's fantastic. What we

1019
00:50:39.679 --> 00:50:43.199
<v Speaker 4>saw in week three, it's a disappointment. What do you

1020
00:50:43.360 --> 00:50:45.679
<v Speaker 4>see for Zay Flowers when moving forward?

1021
00:50:46.960 --> 00:50:49.639
<v Speaker 2>You know, I still think he's gonna be a top producer.

1022
00:50:49.880 --> 00:50:52.880
<v Speaker 2>I don't. I think that the last game was the fluke.

1023
00:50:52.920 --> 00:50:54.719
<v Speaker 2>I think weeks one and two is what you're really

1024
00:50:54.719 --> 00:50:59.280
<v Speaker 2>gonna see. Let's be honest. Mark Andrews hasn't done squat

1025
00:50:59.280 --> 00:51:02.480
<v Speaker 2>in two years, and then he had the best game

1026
00:51:02.519 --> 00:51:05.559
<v Speaker 2>I've seen him having forever. That sounds more like gamescript

1027
00:51:05.559 --> 00:51:09.559
<v Speaker 2>to me. Like Detroit, you know, wasn't looking out for him,

1028
00:51:09.559 --> 00:51:11.079
<v Speaker 2>and they knew they weren't going to be looked for him.

1029
00:51:11.360 --> 00:51:13.880
<v Speaker 2>So they went to them all day long, and you

1030
00:51:13.920 --> 00:51:15.639
<v Speaker 2>never know, it could have been game script on Detroit

1031
00:51:15.719 --> 00:51:18.559
<v Speaker 2>side that they were gonna take aways a and Baltimore

1032
00:51:18.639 --> 00:51:20.000
<v Speaker 2>was like, I'm not going to force it to him,

1033
00:51:20.480 --> 00:51:22.840
<v Speaker 2>you know, So they went away from him that game.

1034
00:51:22.880 --> 00:51:24.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I mean, I don't even think he had

1035
00:51:24.000 --> 00:51:26.840
<v Speaker 2>what one or two targets in the first half period, Like,

1036
00:51:26.920 --> 00:51:29.000
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it wasn't it wasn't even like they were

1037
00:51:29.039 --> 00:51:31.519
<v Speaker 2>looking his way. That just seems to me more of

1038
00:51:31.599 --> 00:51:33.639
<v Speaker 2>like game script. I don't I don't think there's anything

1039
00:51:33.679 --> 00:51:38.119
<v Speaker 2>to worry about. Zay too electric, you know, And honestly,

1040
00:51:38.960 --> 00:51:41.920
<v Speaker 2>I love Henry. Look, man, King Henry is the great,

1041
00:51:42.320 --> 00:51:45.679
<v Speaker 2>but man, he has fumbled in two crucial areas back

1042
00:51:45.719 --> 00:51:48.280
<v Speaker 2>to back. I wouldn't be surprised if they start taking

1043
00:51:48.280 --> 00:51:51.719
<v Speaker 2>a couple carries away and throw a little more for

1044
00:51:51.800 --> 00:51:54.719
<v Speaker 2>a couple of weeks, just some punishment, you know. Or

1045
00:51:54.760 --> 00:51:56.480
<v Speaker 2>then again, they could just beat him the rock trying

1046
00:51:56.480 --> 00:51:57.840
<v Speaker 2>to get him out of his head. You could go

1047
00:51:57.920 --> 00:51:58.360
<v Speaker 2>either way.

1048
00:51:58.440 --> 00:52:02.360
<v Speaker 4>But you know, he's been a victim of guys coming

1049
00:52:02.400 --> 00:52:04.840
<v Speaker 4>in and getting perfect punches on those balls, which is

1050
00:52:04.920 --> 00:52:08.000
<v Speaker 4>highly unusual. And I don't know if any way that

1051
00:52:08.079 --> 00:52:11.800
<v Speaker 4>he could change carrying that ball. But it's been some

1052
00:52:11.880 --> 00:52:17.039
<v Speaker 4>perfect defensive plays against him. But let me, okay, let

1053
00:52:17.039 --> 00:52:19.320
<v Speaker 4>me get back to Flowers. Give me some numbers. When

1054
00:52:19.360 --> 00:52:23.159
<v Speaker 4>you say productivity, he's going to be there. What are

1055
00:52:23.199 --> 00:52:27.159
<v Speaker 4>his numbers catches and touchdowns this year? His first thing

1056
00:52:27.199 --> 00:52:28.159
<v Speaker 4>that pops in your mind.

1057
00:52:29.719 --> 00:52:32.960
<v Speaker 2>I'd say anywhere between eighty five ninety five receptions, eleven

1058
00:52:33.079 --> 00:52:35.199
<v Speaker 2>hundred yards, ten twelve touchdowns.

1059
00:52:35.280 --> 00:52:39.239
<v Speaker 4>Okay, I've had him at seventy five to eighty and

1060
00:52:39.320 --> 00:52:43.719
<v Speaker 4>maybe six touchdowns, looking more like he did last year.

1061
00:52:43.840 --> 00:52:47.440
<v Speaker 4>And when you roll back to last year week three

1062
00:52:47.760 --> 00:52:50.840
<v Speaker 4>three for twenty, week four two for twenty one, Week

1063
00:52:50.920 --> 00:52:54.039
<v Speaker 4>seven one for eleven, Week eleven two for thirty nine.

1064
00:52:54.559 --> 00:52:58.360
<v Speaker 4>Is the inconsistency in the variance of this player. I

1065
00:52:58.360 --> 00:53:02.280
<v Speaker 4>think plays into the hands of quarterback who can extend

1066
00:53:02.280 --> 00:53:06.000
<v Speaker 4>the play and give opportunities for many, many receivers to

1067
00:53:06.079 --> 00:53:10.119
<v Speaker 4>get open downfield. What you just said about Tucker and Myers,

1068
00:53:10.480 --> 00:53:13.360
<v Speaker 4>one of the things that you see there is the

1069
00:53:13.360 --> 00:53:18.039
<v Speaker 4>big body to Andrews. You see Bateman who, despite some

1070
00:53:18.159 --> 00:53:20.679
<v Speaker 4>of his other skills set Bateman does a great job

1071
00:53:20.800 --> 00:53:23.000
<v Speaker 4>settling both in the middle of the field and on

1072
00:53:23.039 --> 00:53:26.119
<v Speaker 4>the sidelines he gets a solid target and he stays

1073
00:53:26.199 --> 00:53:30.280
<v Speaker 4>there for Lamar. I just, I just this is this

1074
00:53:30.320 --> 00:53:32.480
<v Speaker 4>is a player that I really love that I think

1075
00:53:32.639 --> 00:53:36.199
<v Speaker 4>is overdrafted every year. And Bulky, I don't know if

1076
00:53:35.960 --> 00:53:38.559
<v Speaker 4>you can get that Darren Rmanni drip and tell us

1077
00:53:38.559 --> 00:53:40.960
<v Speaker 4>where he ended up going. But you know, he was

1078
00:53:41.039 --> 00:53:43.119
<v Speaker 4>so far out of my price point and I never

1079
00:53:43.119 --> 00:53:45.559
<v Speaker 4>could draft him this year, and I'm kind of glad

1080
00:53:45.559 --> 00:53:47.400
<v Speaker 4>that I don't have to make the decisions to put

1081
00:53:47.480 --> 00:53:48.239
<v Speaker 4>him in a line up.

1082
00:53:49.760 --> 00:53:53.199
<v Speaker 1>I will I will get that information for you shortly here, Phrol,

1083
00:53:53.239 --> 00:53:54.719
<v Speaker 1>but I do want to well, I look that up.

1084
00:53:54.719 --> 00:53:59.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna ask an email from Kevin and Adrian Michigan

1085
00:53:59.599 --> 00:54:02.440
<v Speaker 1>who he miled in to ask you a question, Steve,

1086
00:54:02.800 --> 00:54:05.480
<v Speaker 1>and he wants to know whether Jalen Waddle is a

1087
00:54:05.519 --> 00:54:09.440
<v Speaker 1>strong start this week against the Jets. And I appreciate

1088
00:54:09.440 --> 00:54:09.800
<v Speaker 1>the email.

1089
00:54:09.880 --> 00:54:10.159
<v Speaker 4>Kevin.

1090
00:54:10.400 --> 00:54:12.360
<v Speaker 1>You look at Waddle, who I thought was gonna be

1091
00:54:12.400 --> 00:54:14.400
<v Speaker 1>a huge part of the game plan on Thursday night,

1092
00:54:14.639 --> 00:54:16.840
<v Speaker 1>and he really wasn't. He got that touchdown laid against

1093
00:54:16.880 --> 00:54:19.519
<v Speaker 1>the Bills. This is a game where it should not

1094
00:54:19.599 --> 00:54:22.639
<v Speaker 1>be as lopsided. You would think that the ground game

1095
00:54:22.679 --> 00:54:26.159
<v Speaker 1>would be more involved your thoughts on Waddle. I mean, obviously, Steve,

1096
00:54:26.199 --> 00:54:28.119
<v Speaker 1>I know what kind of depends on what the rest

1097
00:54:28.119 --> 00:54:30.880
<v Speaker 1>of your team looks like. Yeah, in a vacuum, Jalen

1098
00:54:30.920 --> 00:54:33.000
<v Speaker 1>Waddle as a second flex or maybe even a first

1099
00:54:33.039 --> 00:54:35.360
<v Speaker 1>flex in an FFPC league. How'd you feel about that?

1100
00:54:36.320 --> 00:54:38.079
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I wouldn't hate it, but I wouldn't be

1101
00:54:38.159 --> 00:54:41.199
<v Speaker 2>optimistic about it. I mean, look, things are definitely going

1102
00:54:41.280 --> 00:54:44.039
<v Speaker 2>south in Miami. I mean, and I let's just say

1103
00:54:44.039 --> 00:54:48.639
<v Speaker 2>it for what it is. I like McDaniels, but seems

1104
00:54:48.679 --> 00:54:50.760
<v Speaker 2>to right now look like he's a one trick pony

1105
00:54:50.760 --> 00:54:52.239
<v Speaker 2>that he came in with a bunch of quick, tricky

1106
00:54:52.280 --> 00:54:54.400
<v Speaker 2>plays with a lot of speed. The rest of the

1107
00:54:54.440 --> 00:54:56.000
<v Speaker 2>league caught up to him the last two years, and

1108
00:54:56.039 --> 00:54:59.400
<v Speaker 2>he hasn't figured out how to adjust. So teams come

1109
00:54:59.400 --> 00:55:02.599
<v Speaker 2>with specific packages for that speed. I will say, the

1110
00:55:02.599 --> 00:55:04.679
<v Speaker 2>one person I think the benefits when they have those

1111
00:55:04.679 --> 00:55:07.800
<v Speaker 2>packages is Waddle. Because you're planning for Tyreek, you're planning

1112
00:55:07.800 --> 00:55:12.280
<v Speaker 2>for a chain Waddle. To me, I feel better about

1113
00:55:12.320 --> 00:55:14.519
<v Speaker 2>starting him when everyone else is a little nicked up,

1114
00:55:15.039 --> 00:55:17.199
<v Speaker 2>you know what I mean? Like there's a question mark

1115
00:55:17.280 --> 00:55:19.760
<v Speaker 2>on hill, there's a question mark on a chain. Yeah,

1116
00:55:19.800 --> 00:55:21.440
<v Speaker 2>I want to start me some Wattle because I feel

1117
00:55:21.440 --> 00:55:24.599
<v Speaker 2>like he's gonna get the ball. But man, right now,

1118
00:55:24.679 --> 00:55:27.519
<v Speaker 2>I'm really glad that I did not draft many Miami

1119
00:55:27.519 --> 00:55:30.760
<v Speaker 2>players because I the only one I was I wanted

1120
00:55:30.880 --> 00:55:32.800
<v Speaker 2>was honestly a chain. And I think I had Hill

1121
00:55:32.840 --> 00:55:35.559
<v Speaker 2>in like one or two leagues just because of where

1122
00:55:35.599 --> 00:55:38.320
<v Speaker 2>I got him. But man, I mean that offense just

1123
00:55:38.320 --> 00:55:40.719
<v Speaker 2>looks dysfunctional right now. It looked a little better this

1124
00:55:40.760 --> 00:55:44.440
<v Speaker 2>past week, but I'm not loving that situation. Period. If

1125
00:55:44.480 --> 00:55:46.039
<v Speaker 2>I can put him on my bench and I got

1126
00:55:46.079 --> 00:55:49.400
<v Speaker 2>someone better to start than I am, I'm hoping in

1127
00:55:49.440 --> 00:55:53.159
<v Speaker 2>that league I Draftednia's from the Bears rather than him,

1128
00:55:53.159 --> 00:55:55.119
<v Speaker 2>and I am putting him in that flex rather than

1129
00:55:56.039 --> 00:55:56.920
<v Speaker 2>you know, Wattle.

1130
00:55:58.480 --> 00:56:02.119
<v Speaker 1>One one final email for you here tonight and Steve.

1131
00:56:02.119 --> 00:56:05.679
<v Speaker 1>It comes from Larry in Bensonville, Illinois. What's your level

1132
00:56:05.719 --> 00:56:10.559
<v Speaker 1>of concern Steve on the Texans pass catchers given their

1133
00:56:10.679 --> 00:56:13.639
<v Speaker 1>poor offensive line so far this season? That is Larry

1134
00:56:13.960 --> 00:56:16.840
<v Speaker 1>in Bensonville, Illinois. Thank you Larry for that email. And

1135
00:56:17.119 --> 00:56:19.559
<v Speaker 1>I'll expand this a little bit, Steve, and we can

1136
00:56:19.639 --> 00:56:22.400
<v Speaker 1>include Nick Chubb and we can include what he marks

1137
00:56:22.440 --> 00:56:25.639
<v Speaker 1>that offensive line. We knew that they're losing larry My

1138
00:56:25.719 --> 00:56:29.119
<v Speaker 1>Tunsul to the Commanders in the offseason, and it's been

1139
00:56:29.159 --> 00:56:31.880
<v Speaker 1>bad so far. But I don't know, like I feel

1140
00:56:31.920 --> 00:56:35.239
<v Speaker 1>like when we drafted these Texans based on knowing the

1141
00:56:35.280 --> 00:56:38.000
<v Speaker 1>offensive line was not going to be great, and certainly

1142
00:56:38.000 --> 00:56:39.679
<v Speaker 1>it has not been great so far. It's been bad,

1143
00:56:39.880 --> 00:56:43.159
<v Speaker 1>And I don't know if that really affects what I

1144
00:56:43.320 --> 00:56:45.880
<v Speaker 1>think about these players, because quite frankly, I haven't changed

1145
00:56:45.880 --> 00:56:48.599
<v Speaker 1>my opinion on many of these guys because I believe

1146
00:56:48.639 --> 00:56:50.639
<v Speaker 1>this was gonna be the situation we'd find ourselves in.

1147
00:56:51.880 --> 00:56:55.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I can't figure it out. I mean, true transparency.

1148
00:56:55.880 --> 00:56:57.880
<v Speaker 2>I didn't have a good feeling about that offense, so

1149
00:56:57.920 --> 00:56:59.800
<v Speaker 2>I didn't grab them in any league. The only player

1150
00:57:00.039 --> 00:57:03.519
<v Speaker 2>grab was chubbed super super late because Mixing had the

1151
00:57:03.519 --> 00:57:06.760
<v Speaker 2>flag on him. They have the injury and look, Nick

1152
00:57:06.840 --> 00:57:09.199
<v Speaker 2>Chubb before he got his knee blown out was a stud.

1153
00:57:10.039 --> 00:57:13.920
<v Speaker 2>But man, I mean, you talk about the digression of

1154
00:57:14.079 --> 00:57:16.920
<v Speaker 2>Stroud the last two years, he has not looked the same.

1155
00:57:17.159 --> 00:57:20.719
<v Speaker 2>I mean, Nico Collins is almost valueless. If it wasn't

1156
00:57:20.760 --> 00:57:22.360
<v Speaker 2>for that long pass at the end of the game

1157
00:57:22.360 --> 00:57:25.199
<v Speaker 2>in the last one I mean, he's not getting anything.

1158
00:57:25.679 --> 00:57:28.079
<v Speaker 2>I don't. I don't think it has any factor to

1159
00:57:28.079 --> 00:57:29.800
<v Speaker 2>do with Tank Delbian out at all. I don't think

1160
00:57:29.800 --> 00:57:32.039
<v Speaker 2>it's because they don't have the speed option. I feel

1161
00:57:32.039 --> 00:57:35.360
<v Speaker 2>like the play calling is just dismal right now, like

1162
00:57:35.440 --> 00:57:38.760
<v Speaker 2>they can't figure it out. I don't know why they

1163
00:57:38.760 --> 00:57:42.199
<v Speaker 2>can't figure it out, but I I mean i'd stay

1164
00:57:42.199 --> 00:57:45.559
<v Speaker 2>away from I do. I do a lot of like

1165
00:57:45.719 --> 00:57:50.079
<v Speaker 2>FanDuel and DraftKings. I haven't started a Texan guy yet,

1166
00:57:50.639 --> 00:57:55.159
<v Speaker 2>you know, not once, and that is because there's no

1167
00:57:55.199 --> 00:57:59.960
<v Speaker 2>way I'm gonna put money on them, so, you know, transparency,

1168
00:58:00.159 --> 00:58:03.039
<v Speaker 2>I stay away from him. It sucks too, because there's

1169
00:58:03.079 --> 00:58:05.079
<v Speaker 2>a lot of talent there. I mean, let's be honest.

1170
00:58:05.159 --> 00:58:08.639
<v Speaker 2>Nico Collins is straight great, you know, I mean product

1171
00:58:08.719 --> 00:58:11.719
<v Speaker 2>out of Michigan, great hands. When Tank Gell was going,

1172
00:58:11.760 --> 00:58:13.960
<v Speaker 2>you know, Stroud out of Ohio State, they all look

1173
00:58:14.079 --> 00:58:17.239
<v Speaker 2>like all the perfect makings that first year, right, but man,

1174
00:58:17.239 --> 00:58:18.840
<v Speaker 2>they didn't look too great last year and they look

1175
00:58:18.920 --> 00:58:21.719
<v Speaker 2>even worse this year. So who knows? Was it the

1176
00:58:21.719 --> 00:58:24.920
<v Speaker 2>first year Stroud just was figguring the league out so

1177
00:58:25.039 --> 00:58:28.039
<v Speaker 2>quick and they've adjusted. I don't know, but I would

1178
00:58:28.079 --> 00:58:31.800
<v Speaker 2>definitely be afraid to play him anyone in the Texans.

1179
00:58:32.239 --> 00:58:34.559
<v Speaker 4>Well, I think you might have leaned into a little

1180
00:58:34.599 --> 00:58:37.719
<v Speaker 4>bit to what I wanted to ask you about, because

1181
00:58:38.119 --> 00:58:41.800
<v Speaker 4>you know, I made the gutsy move of announcing that

1182
00:58:41.840 --> 00:58:46.280
<v Speaker 4>everyone should should bench Pittman in week two, my favorite

1183
00:58:46.280 --> 00:58:49.119
<v Speaker 4>wide receiver, and I'd said he would put up twelve.

1184
00:58:49.199 --> 00:58:51.639
<v Speaker 4>He put up eight. Then last week he got back

1185
00:58:51.679 --> 00:58:53.519
<v Speaker 4>to twenty. Bulkyd you see how I got that in

1186
00:58:53.559 --> 00:59:00.239
<v Speaker 4>there smooth? But in this in this week four, you

1187
00:59:00.400 --> 00:59:02.400
<v Speaker 4>talked about a couple guys. See if you can give

1188
00:59:02.480 --> 00:59:06.880
<v Speaker 4>us one more that should be set on the pines,

1189
00:59:06.880 --> 00:59:11.119
<v Speaker 4>a guy that typically would be played based on draft capital,

1190
00:59:11.159 --> 00:59:14.360
<v Speaker 4>and then give us a guy, give us this week's

1191
00:59:14.920 --> 00:59:17.400
<v Speaker 4>Trey Tucker. Give us a guy that should get an

1192
00:59:17.440 --> 00:59:20.679
<v Speaker 4>opportunity to play and be put in rosters. I've been

1193
00:59:20.719 --> 00:59:23.400
<v Speaker 4>working with my lineup, so I think I have a

1194
00:59:23.440 --> 00:59:27.199
<v Speaker 4>couple that would not be the Chalky pick. So give

1195
00:59:27.280 --> 00:59:30.360
<v Speaker 4>us one that's the not chalky pick, and it make

1196
00:59:30.400 --> 00:59:31.519
<v Speaker 4>you look really smart.

1197
00:59:32.000 --> 00:59:35.719
<v Speaker 2>Well, definitely, the guy I wouldn't start is Jamar Chase.

1198
00:59:35.880 --> 00:59:41.679
<v Speaker 2>I mean that offense looks awful without Burrows, and that

1199
00:59:41.840 --> 00:59:44.679
<v Speaker 2>hurts me because I drafted burrows in half my leagues,

1200
00:59:44.719 --> 00:59:47.559
<v Speaker 2>and luckily I had a good backup in a lot

1201
00:59:47.599 --> 00:59:49.559
<v Speaker 2>of them. But I mean, you want to talk about

1202
00:59:49.599 --> 00:59:51.960
<v Speaker 2>dysfunctional last week, I don't see it getting any better

1203
00:59:52.000 --> 00:59:54.480
<v Speaker 2>playing in Denver, you know what I mean. I just

1204
00:59:54.760 --> 00:59:57.639
<v Speaker 2>jamar Chase. He may get six or seven receptions, he

1205
00:59:57.760 --> 01:00:00.800
<v Speaker 2>might be for thirteen yards, Like, just don't see. So

1206
01:00:00.880 --> 01:00:04.119
<v Speaker 2>I would definitely not. I know it's crazy to bench

1207
01:00:04.119 --> 01:00:06.920
<v Speaker 2>your number one starter, your number one pick, but I'm

1208
01:00:06.960 --> 01:00:12.159
<v Speaker 2>not starting Chase if I don't have to either. Yeah,

1209
01:00:12.159 --> 01:00:13.920
<v Speaker 2>but the guy that I like, you know you kind

1210
01:00:13.960 --> 01:00:16.360
<v Speaker 2>of already mentioned them a little bit earlier. From what

1211
01:00:16.440 --> 01:00:18.480
<v Speaker 2>I saw in that game, I think Casey is starting

1212
01:00:18.480 --> 01:00:20.599
<v Speaker 2>to try to figure out who else they got. And

1213
01:00:20.639 --> 01:00:23.239
<v Speaker 2>I think on those two plays back to back with uh,

1214
01:00:23.559 --> 01:00:27.960
<v Speaker 2>you know Tae with Taekwan Thornton, man like that was

1215
01:00:28.039 --> 01:00:30.320
<v Speaker 2>electric on those two plays, to the point where he

1216
01:00:30.360 --> 01:00:32.119
<v Speaker 2>didn't catch the one, They're like, let's do it again,

1217
01:00:32.159 --> 01:00:34.519
<v Speaker 2>and then he brings it down. You know, I mean

1218
01:00:34.559 --> 01:00:36.360
<v Speaker 2>they might throw this ball up deep to him four

1219
01:00:36.400 --> 01:00:38.719
<v Speaker 2>or five times. It's going to be everyone else has

1220
01:00:38.719 --> 01:00:41.159
<v Speaker 2>been able to throw all over Baltimore, why not case

1221
01:00:41.679 --> 01:00:43.159
<v Speaker 2>And I think they're gonna see what they can get

1222
01:00:43.159 --> 01:00:43.639
<v Speaker 2>away with it.

1223
01:00:45.719 --> 01:00:49.480
<v Speaker 1>This is one final question, Steve. I know I said

1224
01:00:49.519 --> 01:00:51.079
<v Speaker 1>we're done, but I want to throw this out there

1225
01:00:51.119 --> 01:00:54.079
<v Speaker 1>because it's getting some discussion in the chat right now

1226
01:00:54.079 --> 01:00:58.440
<v Speaker 1>on YouTube Racy Xavier Worthy this week, who is at

1227
01:00:58.480 --> 01:01:02.679
<v Speaker 1>home against the Ravens or Jordan Addison, who is making

1228
01:01:02.679 --> 01:01:06.519
<v Speaker 1>his season debut across the pond in Ireland Sunday morning

1229
01:01:06.599 --> 01:01:09.079
<v Speaker 1>against the Steelers. Who would you rather play between those two?

1230
01:01:10.639 --> 01:01:12.480
<v Speaker 2>Addison's completely healthy right.

1231
01:01:12.800 --> 01:01:14.960
<v Speaker 1>As far as we know, he's not on the injury

1232
01:01:14.960 --> 01:01:17.639
<v Speaker 1>re board at all.

1233
01:01:17.760 --> 01:01:20.159
<v Speaker 2>They're playing pits. They're playing the Steelers.

1234
01:01:19.760 --> 01:01:21.039
<v Speaker 1>Right in Dublin.

1235
01:01:21.159 --> 01:01:27.920
<v Speaker 2>Yes, yeah, that one A man. I feel like I

1236
01:01:27.920 --> 01:01:30.360
<v Speaker 2>feel like they're figuring things out. I think it was

1237
01:01:30.400 --> 01:01:33.039
<v Speaker 2>way too early to crown McCarthy. In my personal opinion,

1238
01:01:33.039 --> 01:01:35.320
<v Speaker 2>I think they were stupid. They should have kept Arnold.

1239
01:01:35.599 --> 01:01:37.800
<v Speaker 2>They really should have. They should have kept him and

1240
01:01:37.880 --> 01:01:40.159
<v Speaker 2>let McCarthy grow underneath him. He already missed a year

1241
01:01:40.159 --> 01:01:43.800
<v Speaker 2>for injury. Again. I love McCarthy. He's a great Michigan product.

1242
01:01:44.079 --> 01:01:46.360
<v Speaker 2>He's a great kid, but he needs some time to learn.

1243
01:01:46.400 --> 01:01:48.639
<v Speaker 2>I see him more of like an Aaron Rodgers needs

1244
01:01:48.639 --> 01:01:50.559
<v Speaker 2>two three years kind of see how it is and

1245
01:01:50.559 --> 01:01:53.280
<v Speaker 2>he's gonna pick it up be really good. That said Wentz,

1246
01:01:53.360 --> 01:01:55.320
<v Speaker 2>I feel like he's probably already picked that offense up.

1247
01:01:55.679 --> 01:01:57.719
<v Speaker 2>We have yet to see a big game out of Jefferson,

1248
01:01:58.079 --> 01:01:59.800
<v Speaker 2>and I feel like it's coming and this might be

1249
01:01:59.800 --> 01:02:02.840
<v Speaker 2>the that Jefferson blows up for eleven receptions, one hundred

1250
01:02:02.840 --> 01:02:05.440
<v Speaker 2>and twenty five yards and a TV or two. That

1251
01:02:05.599 --> 01:02:09.239
<v Speaker 2>being said, I don't think Addison just goes ripping. But

1252
01:02:09.760 --> 01:02:13.880
<v Speaker 2>on the other side, everybody looked better than Worthy in

1253
01:02:13.960 --> 01:02:16.880
<v Speaker 2>my opinion, in the last case game. You know, they're

1254
01:02:16.880 --> 01:02:19.239
<v Speaker 2>throwing it to Juju Smith, they're throwing it to Kelsey,

1255
01:02:19.280 --> 01:02:22.119
<v Speaker 2>They're throwing it to Gray, they're throwing it to Tyreek Thorton.

1256
01:02:22.639 --> 01:02:25.440
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it looks to me like they've already given

1257
01:02:26.639 --> 01:02:28.960
<v Speaker 2>You know, Xavier Worthy is shot in the first week

1258
01:02:29.039 --> 01:02:31.960
<v Speaker 2>or two and he didn't really capitalize because of the injury.

1259
01:02:32.000 --> 01:02:33.639
<v Speaker 2>He was out right. You know, they were going with

1260
01:02:33.679 --> 01:02:38.559
<v Speaker 2>Hollywood Brown. A shoulder surgery. I've had three of them.

1261
01:02:38.639 --> 01:02:41.920
<v Speaker 2>I've had three shoulder surgeries in my life. Separated shoulder

1262
01:02:41.960 --> 01:02:44.239
<v Speaker 2>is not a small thing when you jam or anything

1263
01:02:44.280 --> 01:02:47.639
<v Speaker 2>like that, or it hurts. I don't think they're going

1264
01:02:47.679 --> 01:02:49.639
<v Speaker 2>to be passing to them, He'll be more probably a decoy.

1265
01:02:49.719 --> 01:02:53.039
<v Speaker 2>So I'd say, despite liking Jefferson to have a big game,

1266
01:02:53.079 --> 01:02:54.199
<v Speaker 2>I like Jordan Edison.

1267
01:02:55.760 --> 01:02:59.719
<v Speaker 1>Normally, I would say Worthy in this sense. And the

1268
01:02:59.800 --> 01:03:03.199
<v Speaker 1>reason I'm not going to is not only is perm

1269
01:03:03.239 --> 01:03:05.039
<v Speaker 1>our points, so not only is Worthy going to be

1270
01:03:05.039 --> 01:03:06.960
<v Speaker 1>playing or expected to be playing with a harness on

1271
01:03:07.039 --> 01:03:10.440
<v Speaker 1>Sunday afternoon. There was reporting earlier this week that he

1272
01:03:10.559 --> 01:03:13.159
<v Speaker 1>was expected to play but be a decoy, and I

1273
01:03:13.199 --> 01:03:15.639
<v Speaker 1>haven't seen reporting done since then on that. But I

1274
01:03:15.639 --> 01:03:18.719
<v Speaker 1>haven't seen anything to refute that either, Whereas I think

1275
01:03:18.800 --> 01:03:21.840
<v Speaker 1>Addison could come in and make some waves right away.

1276
01:03:22.119 --> 01:03:24.199
<v Speaker 1>So it's close. I mean, I think both of these

1277
01:03:24.239 --> 01:03:28.039
<v Speaker 1>guys are flexible this week, Ferrell, I lean towards Addison

1278
01:03:28.079 --> 01:03:32.039
<v Speaker 1>as well. Do you make it a triple score on

1279
01:03:32.119 --> 01:03:33.960
<v Speaker 1>this Overworthy.

1280
01:03:34.400 --> 01:03:37.000
<v Speaker 4>I'm not going to fight the genius that I'm here with,

1281
01:03:37.159 --> 01:03:40.440
<v Speaker 4>and I agree with you, and I happened to like

1282
01:03:40.519 --> 01:03:43.360
<v Speaker 4>Carson Wins, so they've installed him in Las Vegas as

1283
01:03:43.400 --> 01:03:51.920
<v Speaker 4>a thirty thirty or thirty one pass attempts. If he

1284
01:03:52.000 --> 01:03:54.599
<v Speaker 4>throws the ball that much, there's gonna be plenty for Addison.

1285
01:03:55.480 --> 01:03:58.679
<v Speaker 1>We may have lost. Steve, I'm not sure what happened there,

1286
01:03:58.800 --> 01:04:00.320
<v Speaker 1>and I doe with this.

1287
01:04:00.519 --> 01:04:02.679
<v Speaker 4>He was contracted until eleventh am.

1288
01:04:02.400 --> 01:04:06.360
<v Speaker 1>And and he's like, look, I'm out, which could be

1289
01:04:06.360 --> 01:04:08.679
<v Speaker 1>the case. If he pops back in, we'll definitely bring

1290
01:04:08.800 --> 01:04:12.280
<v Speaker 1>him on. But in the interest of uh, we're already

1291
01:04:12.320 --> 01:04:16.199
<v Speaker 1>over time here for well, yeah, he might have Irish

1292
01:04:16.199 --> 01:04:20.199
<v Speaker 1>goodbye in honor of the Dublin game as well. That's

1293
01:04:20.199 --> 01:04:23.480
<v Speaker 1>a non zero chance of that, Farrell. Kf FFC dot

1294

1354
01:07:23.840 --> 01:07:29.760
<v Speaker 1>Can one final piece, And I know I've mentioned this

1355
01:07:29.800 --> 01:07:31.320
<v Speaker 1>a couple of times on the show, but I want

1356
01:07:31.320 --> 01:07:34.639
<v Speaker 1>to give this as a final reminder. Steelers and Vikings

1357
01:07:34.679 --> 01:07:37.719
<v Speaker 1>will kick off at nine thirty am Eastern Time on Sunday.

1358
01:07:37.960 --> 01:07:41.280
<v Speaker 1>Set your lineups on Saturday night or very early Sunday morning,

1359
01:07:41.360 --> 01:07:43.679
<v Speaker 1>so you make sure you have those Steelers and Vikings

1360
01:07:43.719 --> 01:07:46.960
<v Speaker 1>started or maybe more importantly benched on the leagues. You

1361
01:07:47.000 --> 01:07:49.000
<v Speaker 1>don't want to have those players going and for that

1362
01:07:49.159 --> 01:07:52.800
<v Speaker 1>ten am Eastern Time waiver wire Steelers and Vikings will

1363
01:07:52.800 --> 01:07:55.639
<v Speaker 1>not be available for that, so make sure that you

1364
01:07:55.679 --> 01:07:58.440
<v Speaker 1>are not counting out acquiring a kicker at defense or

1365
01:07:58.480 --> 01:08:01.280
<v Speaker 1>anybody else from those two teams. And have fun in

1366
01:08:01.320 --> 01:08:05.599
<v Speaker 1>week four quadruple header on Sunday with Steelers Vikings kicking

1367
01:08:05.599 --> 01:08:07.039
<v Speaker 1>it off. Then you get the one o'clock window, the

1368
01:08:07.079 --> 01:08:09.679
<v Speaker 1>four o'clock window, and of course, Sunday night football with
